Flynn's Paws: My Thoughts, My Gripes

  • My VERY bad…

    Hehehe! At 11:33pm tonight, a long lecture by the wise wo/man has been concluded. With a hug and a kiss, I was “forced” to promise not to be helpful and avoid being gullible to scams. The bad news was broken at 10:30pm when I was asked how much I saved. Of course, I couldn’t lie and had to tell the truth about where my “help” was going.

    • “What you did is wrong! How dare you give your money away to strangers! You could have helped our poor relatives living in the Philippines!
    • “You took advantage of us. All you had to be was honest with us. We won’t take your money! We were wondering why you were being so secretive.”
    • “You are worse than the boy. At least he didn’t give his money away.”
    • “How many times did we tell you to take care of yourself first.”
    • “You are jobless, penniless and cannot even pay to get an annual checkup. If you had your own place, you would be VERY stingy. Some parents kick their children out of the house for being freeloaders.”
    • “Last night’s television show reported that children who are spoiled and are given everything won’t strive hard and won’t think for themselves!”
    • “You are supposed to work hard and save money and later retire with a pension, get your Social Security that you paid while working.”
    • “No one will hire an old person like you.”
    • “We failed! We lost the boy. And tonight we lost the girl, too. Boo-hoo-hoo!”

    Question: So what lesson have you learned from this [karmic] experience?

    Answer: I am NO longer to invest, donate money or borrow money. I am to save money for my future and spend what I earned.

    In summary: “Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!”

    Perhaps, TPTB and pals can look into this situation and let me/us know the status.

    At around 10:15pm, Maw told/requested/ordered me to pray for the boy and for me not to think bad/evil thoughts.

    After this evening’s mass and while Paw was refueling his MB E430, Maw said she REALLY doesn’t like the girl and will NOT rest in peace until she tells the twit how she feels. Maw asked me why the girl came over the house long ago and disclosed that she was making more than her boy. Maw wanted to slap the girl’s face. Maw inquired of me why the twit told her. I said the boy is not making/saving enough for the girl’s security/maintenance fees and for his future/retirement because all of his money goes to paying the mortgage. I also added the childless boy spends too much on his “vices” over the weekend instead of finding a weekend job.

    During this evening’s mass, Maw pointed to a reference from her black, Bible book. It read that those who lost faith (in God, we trust) will be lost FOREVER! That’s why boy is lost because he refuses to attend mass with/out us. Instead he’d rather bow down to Buddha, an obese, dead man with no concept in life but laugh at life and stupid people, who bow down to him.

    Here are some notes taken by memory or entered by “Memo”:

     

    At 20:00pm: Maw told me not to worry/get involved/forget about “pyramid schemes”. In my mind that includes charity, above and beyond investments.

    At 19:18pm: Paw requested his after dinner snack by simply pointing his finger towards the general direction and by making his usual under the breath monotone. As I reached out and passed the container, I said: “Oh, magic cookie bowl, please give Paw his good fortune!” You see we bought 3-large side orders ($3 each) and two-large entrees ($9 each) at our local Panda Express. They charged us 1 Panda Feast in error for $29 instead of $27 and made up the difference with a medium-sized mixed vegetables. They give us about ten fortune cookies before the initial goof.

    At 19:13pm: Maw said after dinner: “You cannot be too honest, only to God.” In my mind, that meant cheating, deceiving and lying. The story a few minutes ago was about Minda’s daughter. They were in Rome and the daughter decided to wear a “veil” over her head and beg for money in the streets to see if people would give her money. They did. She will be marked for humor and negatively in my books, and all for survival. Then my other thought occurred: [my] family too have been marked down for not getting jobs!

    At 19:12pm: Maw said during dinner: “The truth will come out.” This was during a discussion with all the different ways that data is communicated over over the airwaves via radio and televised./cable broadcasting.

    At 18:45pm: Educating illegal ALIENS over the orphans and the poo in the state of Texas is not a good idea by Governor Rick Perry. However, a thought yesterday occurred: If Texas wants “payback” for this “free handout” they could require these students to sign up for the armed forces; submit to an RFID tracking program and work for the government FOREVER!

    At 09:13am: After this mornings mass, we handed poor Ben a heavy bag of pears from our backyard. Then a few more minutes of conversation was said during the HOT early morning sun. Ben mentioned how his grandson got in trouble for punching and pushing back a bully at school. He told his grandson not to hit. The grandson replied: “Okay, Papa.” In a similar shared story: Maw told her son not to come home crying after being bulled at school long ago. She told him to step on his foot and push him back. The boy came back excited and reported to his Maw the good news of stopping the bully.

  • Father’s love…

    As per my “Memo” note on 7:58am, Paw shared his story en route to this morning’s mass.

    A son called his father long distance and broke the news. After many years of serving the military, the son asked: “Dad, I’m gay. Do you still love me?”

    The father replied: “I love you, son.”

    —

    With the recent repeal of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” law on September 20, the gays can now serve openly and proudly in the military without question (as to sexual orientation/preferences).

    —

    Compared to this story, the UNGRATEFUL boy continues to hide from his OLD family by refusing further communication. It is up to the boy to forgive his elderly father and to stop holding a grudge against this old man who didn’t have guidance on how to raise a family when he had a difficult childhood without his mother and father.

    I know we kids (as inherited from our paternal blood-line) don’t like to be wrong. But we are wrong to DISCOUNT our own family and relatives. I hold that Chinese, Lindsey, especially accountable and responsible for further destroying the relationship between the boy and his OLD, Filipino culture.

  • Harmless egos…

    image

    “Lola Luz has a big head.” ~First cousin Giant said while aggressively flipping through an album of Auntie Norma during a prayer group for the late husband Alberto.

    “I can buy you a set of these glasses at the Navy Exchange.” ~Maw suggested to the Chingster long ago.

    “Showing off is the LAST thing on my mind to tell you the truth…SHARING is another concept.” ~Said the boy.

    “Queen! Queen! Where’s your crown. You are full of love.” ~Mirna and Emmer would hollar to Maw after morning mass.

    —

    However, people misconstrue these “harmless” intentions as “condescending“. For example, attached is a photo showing one of the glass that Shillou intentionally knocked down with her right hand from our dining table long ago. The disturbed child was to my left, Maw was to her left “bragging” and the Chingster was to my right not really listening.

  • Scary moan…

    Eek! It’s now 11:48pm. I just got back from a fright. Maw had made a scary moaning sound through her CPAP machine! I rushed over in a quick sprint and scream: “Mom!” She was in a deep sleep. I tried pinching and squeezing her two big toes as Rachel told me to do when someone wouldn’t wake up. It took me about one minute before I decided to straightened her right leg, which was bent comfortably, and adjust/pull down her pajama pants. Then she awoke. I tried to explain to her what had happened but she was barely able to awaken. I then decided to stretch her fingers, starting with the left hand, which made lots of popping and cracking sounds in the wrist and forearm areas. The right fingers and wrists also made slight sounds but not so much. So with my “high blood pressure” still up, I am trying to fall asleep soon. But it will take me awhile to relax after this late night’s startling event.

    Here are my notes done on the “Memo” apps of my cellphones:

    At 10:57am, the divorced nutter has been seen turning right on MY long stretch on road. This was after I heard bottles and cans dropping on my sidewalk and saw a portly, old Chinese man tying his white plastic bag to his “flea market” type of aluminum cart.

    We are washing Paw’s expensive jacket in mild detergent.

    At around 10:00am and while Maw was cooking outdoors in the back yard, the parakeets got their shower with the garden hose, after I sprayed them down with a feather conditioner of lanolin oil. They appeared soaked.

    At 9:39am: Paw wanted to fix the recycling bin. So I helped him remove the styrofoam and cardboard pieces. With the recycling material at the bottom, we loaded the bin with the “fur balls” (or Paw’s word to describe styrofoam). Paw took the ladder and went inside the bin to “compress” the material with his weight by stepping and jumping up and down. I took his pics. Then the cardboard pieces went on top.

    At 9:34am: After eating breakfast, Maw wanted us to transplant here growing taro pants from containers in the back yard to the soil in the front years. Then Paw told us how to plant sugar canes. Cut the top of the cane stalk. Soak the stalk in the river and stack it like a beavers dam. When the root comes out (just like the taro root plants), the sugar canes are ready for replanting.

    At 8:13am: During this morning’s sermon, the priest mentioned the “trials and errors” in life. In yesterday’s conversation after Paw’s doctor’s appointment, Maw and I know that today’s doctors are no longer aggressive in the treatment of patients by giving prescriptions and other useless diagnostic tools. Doctors used to check the patient thoroughly and ask questions. Even the euphamism in the word “practice” has been “trials and errors” on the lives of people.

    At 7:55am: Yesterday the sunrise appeared to be behind the neighbor’s palm tree. This morning at around the same time at 7:00am, the sunrise appears appeared to be slightly more to the “right” of this palm tree. Also, the weathery has been friggin HOT!

    While shopping for grocery at Costco after Monday morning mass, we encountered Carlos, a server of the Lord. He was leaning on the cart and pushed it somewhat in our but opposite direction.

    We greeted him and said a few word but he merely smiled at us with his false teeth and didn’t say a word.

    Then Tony, his wife, err, the florist for our local parish came from behind Carlos and dumped his grocery into the shopping cart. He looked at us and smiled, too. But he didn’t say a word.

    He has a “wife” who is the best friend of Gloria, the wife of Carlos. She is going on a long vacation and that makes Carlos happy.

    Gee! I wonder what is going on here? These four are truly “odd” couples. I wonder why they are truly hiding by not engaging in simple conversation. I guess the “cat got their tongue”.

  • Faithful friend…

    Fe has dropped off a bag of vegetables while Maw was ironing yesterday. The old lady didn’t knock or ring the bell and Maw assumed that she was in a hurry to leave. Fe had called and talked to Maw twice in the day. I wonder what makes the difference between the “bastos’ and this one for dumping and leaving.

    Anyway in the mid-afternoon, Maw and I peeled the lemon skins off the OLD and almost dried pulp with our bare hand and proceeded to remove the seeds and white, furry pulp from the juicy parts that we had liquefied with an Oster blender — the first of its kind almost 40 years ago. We never did us this blender frequently and that is why it lasted that long!

    There were dark green peppers included in this surprise. The other surprise was how Fe wanted Maw to speak with Nati, her long-time friend. It seems the smart one would not speak with a sibling. I guess that is a familiar story with regards to the boy and moi. He chose to be stubborn, just like his wifey and moi.

    So it seems that everyone is playing hard ball because everyone has an agenda to live a life in the pursuit of happiness and liberty without being told what do to and what not to do “correctly”. Get it? People would rather life in denial, smile as if nothing is wrong and let the family unity fall into disarray.

    So it is with some to be lousy friends of the family, except a few who are nice enough to buy two nice sandal slippers from the Philippines — one of gold and one of shiny black. We wore our pair today. It is these rare gifts from people who are considerate enough to think of us, even though we are not in contact frequently.

  • Stay single…

    A couple must NOT live together before marriage. ~A very strict Gypsy code of conduct.

    —

    Even Brandon and Kim honored this timeless tradition. But the “bastos” refused to learn from her sibling. That would make her an unfit bride from the beginning, someone who opened her “good” heart in the shape of the letter “V”!

  • It is not all right…

    Why did you say that to Lindsey? Because she is “bastos” to your family and relatives! You married a refugee who is “bastos” and screams at you! You have no balls to find and marry someone better than her. Instead your let your anger at God prevent you from attending church and at your own family and relatives prevent you from learning more from the truth via Facebook chatting messages and visiting us in person! What you are doing is a grave sin. Can you honestly continue to manipulate the truth to the favor in front of your friends and cousins? They know who you are!

    Here are my notes taken on the “Memo” app of my cellphone:

    On 09/19/2011 at 13:42pm: We had finished talking with Fay (or Faith), a disabled, 200 pound woman sitting in her $200 Walmart wheelchair. She and Maw talked about FOREIGNERS who refuse to learn the English language and how primary doctors “treat” the patient as intensively. The story went on to her 77 year old husband who died of lung cancer; lost the will to live and has his ashes inside an urn behind a glass encasement for the grandchildren to place their popular toys. She talked about how her husband called for help when she fell down and after two hours, two firemen helped her up effortlessly. She liked Filipino food, has a Brazilian daughter-in-law who spoke better English than her and grandchild/ren that will have spoken English, Spanish and Portuguese.

    On 09/19/2011 at 12:30pm: Paw and I made a 30-minute, brisk walk around the Great Mall. That’s one mile per circuit. Maw managed to cover one-half the distance in the same amount of time. It’s good thing we went home to drop off our grocery of Costco food and snacks before we headed out to eat lunch at Carl’s Jr.

    On 09/19/2011 at 10:56pm: This thought is in regards to the alleged “stealth invasion” into the US by China. In my mind, the invasion is done through immigration, whereby illegal ALIENS and refugees (who were fresh off the boat like Lindsey) escape the oppression and tyranny of their country and live off the system in America through free-hand outs of food stamps and other benefits paid by honest, hard-working American CITIZENS. Also, intermarriage by the Chinese with the Americans (and other means to get a green card) is form of this soft tyranny. Likewise other financial deals are made to take over American real property outright by foreign “investors”. After all the Chinese hate us Americans (as per the “trump card”), just as much as Lindsey and her Chinese family hate us Filipinos. The boy has chosen unwisely.

    On 09/19/2011 at 08:00a: I had a rhythmic spasm on my left neck muscle. My mind created how an electromagnetic wave was heating up the area, causing it to contract. This action would be similar to how the microwave radiation heats up a plastic wrap and make it shrink into a crinkly, melted form.

    On 09/19/2011 at 07:53am: I had a thought about ETs and how the shape of their bulbous head are similar to the shape of a regular iridescent light bulb. This “imagery” could explain how they choose their “form” as electrical beings — big round head of the glass bulb and two big eyes as electrical contacts.

    On 09/19/2011 at 07:32am: Paw told us that he had 31 short sleeve shirts, 16 long sleeve shirts and 18 pants and that he finished washing and ironing these article of clothes since last night.
