  • New Zemanta image settings…

    A few minutes ago, I noticed three things as I was trying to insert a Recommended Image from Zemanta. And I saw the following message:

    Hey! This is important. We changed the way images are inserted with Zemanta. Read more at our blog.

    • Images get inserted to blinking cursor position:
    • More than one image:
    • Image settings:
  • Inflating value…

    My late Auntie Hely has a profound sickness in flourishing her stories. For example, if she gave only $20, she would brag to unwitting listeners that she gave $200. The same goes to the banana nutter lady who tells her local parishioners that she gives $500 every week to the coffers but actually was caught giving $5 by an usher.

    As for my random thought this morning during mass, I don’t think the pyramids are 12,000 years old but only 1,200 years. How else are these structures and other antiqities still intact? My calculations were done merely by removing an extra zero from the alleged stories by the “professionals” and their outmoded “scientific” devices for measuring artifacts and other “educated guesses”.

  • Middle Americans…

    Well those who take the “middle ground” are really left with nothing because they are neither too rich to live without working hard and for a lifetime to pay down/off debt/mortgage nor too poor to qualify for government help/benefits. It’s the intention behind the entitlements/garnishments/bonuses and how these are best utilized, not for sex, drugs, gambling and more money/bling.

  • Using Zemanta…

    After reducing the clutter of my categories to just one tag “Uncategorized“, I’ve been using the Zemanta tagging feature, which recommends tags based on the analysis of the text. The more I enter text into the content, the better the recommendation. If the content is too short, the Zemanta tagging feature doesn’t work and it only works when blogging through the “Visual” tab and not the “HTML” tag.

    The “Recommended Tags” popped up when I typed the words “Visual” and I clicked the “Apply all” link. Why? Prior to using the Zemanta tagging feature, I had to “guess” which word combination worked best for my topic and I stuck to only ONE WORD, starting with a lower case. I studied the popular tags on WordPress and chose the ones that I liked and found that no one really re/searches “categories” or “tags”.

    Tonight and out of inspiration from John Jr, I converted my “popular” categories (in lower case) to tags and started using Zemanta to “see” how my blogging experience improves, which it should because new “Recommended Tags” keep appearing! Unfortunately, the Zemanta tagging feature is not available on WordPress for Android. I had submitted a “request” to the Support team on this issue.

    So far MOST of my ideas/suggestion have manifested quite a bit but without proper credit or freebees and not even a mug or T-shirt, except maybe a coupon and that was about it. Whatever. Brouhaha!

  • Shortening categories…

    I should shorten the list of categories to include only the “top” three: dreams, Uncategorized and poetry. The Uncategorized is mostly blogs, rants and opposite to that of poetry. The rest could be set as tags. I don’t think people actually re/search weblogs by visiting tag/categories. I noticed that the searches are done through words and/or online.

  • Meaningful blogging…

    I think I’ve gotten “blogging burnout”. I could blog/list everything/all that I’ve experienced and still something is lacking. Is it the appearance of my blog? The content not being focused enough? But that’s where tagging comes along. I don’t know. I don’t care. I want to care but don’t know.

  • Home improvements…

    I really want to improve the yard and repair the house.

    Here are some photos:

  • 20111002-More Spooks

    One thing I learned about blogging, people like censorship and positive affirmations, such as awards from each other. That’s what I don’t like about blogging and social network. Honest criticism won’t be taken lightly, even aruged and later ignored by the offense. I’m not playing this game of “smiley faces”. I’m sick of people denying my reality. But everyone continues living like frogs being boiled slowly to death. Perhaps, you’d be FED up too if you knew your places.

  • Falling apart…

    This morning I felt a pressure rumbling atop my left ankle. It lasted two to three seconds and I thought it was a mosquito that landed on my skin. When I reached down to see what it was I didn’t free anything until later this noontime when I saw a discoloration on that area. I was en route to buy two large side orders of chow mein at Panda Express. Here is a photo.

    Than at 1:07pm, I felt a tendon slip/snap into place. I was washing/holding a large “Butterfly” Correll plate from lunch with my left hand. The effect of a buzz from hitting the “funny bones” was felt INSIDE the palm of my hands. The buzz would not go away until after thirty seconds.

    With regards to my dizziness and over heating, I had to cut down my niacin intake to three times a week and a multi-vitamin to once a week. In addition, I am eating a banana each meal for potassium and drinking less water while dining so as to avoid diluting acid my stomach.

    As for exercise, I walk around the mail with Paw/Maw. During rosary prayers in the afternoon or evening, I do 50 deep knee bends and other leg exercises while standing up.

  • 20091113-Editing Tags

    Heard over airwaves (radio or TV) a few days ago why not to use hatred or descriptive words towards a person but okay to group. So I changed tags to end in ‘s’.

  • 20090727-News Tagged

    Removed `news` from category and saved as `prose`. `News` is now a tag. Moved `Flynn’s Editorials` above each news articles. Renamed post titles appropriately.
