  • Write a story that ends with this sentence…

    The war had ended. And after a few melees of catapulting boulders across the skies filled with the smell of gunpowder and towards the burning compound of the enemy in the distance, it was time to reflect on another successful campaign. But something was amiss during the event that left a bitter taste in the good doctor’s mouth. The boulders kept missing its precious target. Although the cheers of his comrades echoed in the distance he felt ashamed and truly alone for only he knew what had happened. Having learned his lesson, it was the last time Dr. Jiggybones would let the crossbeams get out of skew on the treadle.

  • Red heart gum wad…

    People are nasty. Those who chew gum and spit it out on the ground are insane, just like people who cannot control their bowels or bladders during the Wall Street occupation. Here is a photo of an OLD wad of gum in the shape of a heart. It was at the base of the driver’s side of the handicapped parking, which I the fifth lot to the Parking C of a mall.

  • Moving a Blog…

    I just read a Support article (Last modified: October 7, 2011) and got the following message:

    “Howdy, this tool is temporarily disabled. Check back in a few days and we’ll have it all back to normal.“

    I wanted to Move a Blog to a Private Blog. Hmmm.

  • 20111012-Dream Journal

    Here are my notes taken on the “Memo” apps of my cellphone this morning at 05:49am:

    In the morning’s dream, I was talking to my brother. He was sitting on a couch/sofa to my left and was disappointed at my blog. I thought to myself that I should move my blog contents over to a private blog.

    We were together in an underwater scene of misty white with gray-blue tinge. My brothe was behind me and somewhere to my right. To my left and somewhere towards the general ten o’clock direction, there was a big crystal-like projection on the left side of the wall.

    The object seemed like an opaque dark grayish-blue frosted glass but my mind sensed it was one crystal. It was sticking out from a wall on the left. The end of it was curved in horizontally and maybe another indentation recesses inward. The outer edge (or lip) was shaped like an infinity symbol but a gentler curve towards the middle.

    I pointed my mini-crystal of lemurian at it and then swam/moved to its left and stood/hovered there. I placed both hands on it, along with my crystal, thinking that talking/touching it with the crystal would help.

    I tell concentrated and started getting a VERY subtle buzz-like sensation, which prompted me to close my eyes. I felt like I was drifting further into another consciousness but saw through my mind’s eyes that I the color of the surround waters/liquid was still grayish-blue. I might have heard something move and felt myself descending further into the water below.

    I then saw basement with things coming out. One main object made its way up the stairs from below. But if forgot. A cream/white creepy worm-like creature crawled out, through the top of the open basement. I thought that my brother should work at home with relatives of girl living in house with parents. I was standing in a distance from the basement located somewhere to my ten o’clock direction.

  • Pick a topic from yesterday, and write about it…

    Pick a topic from yesterday’s list, and write about it. If you chicken out, write about why you’re afraid to write about one topic from your list.

    I’m afraid I chicken out about a topic from yesterday’s list. It’s about conspiracy. So far I’ve come across several “fringe theories” as to why the world is preparing for an alleged 2012 event, which will never happen, of course, and how a few people belonging to an alleged secret society of Illuminati are puppets to the cause of lying and deceiving to the public — and all because of an alleged NWO agenda.

  • Inhaling draft…

    So this lady goes down into a basement that is supposed to be haunted. Her video camera couln’t focus and it picked up a thick cloud of moving mist. She claimed to be freezing cold and started to shiver so badly that she couldn’t hold the camera steady and had to stop filming.

    Of course, I wonder if these people are SMART enough to wear AT LEAST a dust mask to avoid inhaling stagnant air that might have ghost cooties! Think about it: these people are breathing spirits into their lungs! I don’t know how we could believe people who try to convince us that they have ghost haunting the place.

  • 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”.

  • Eyebrow issues…

    For the past few days, Maw’s eyebrows have been itchy. I checked for any gray/white hair but didn’t find any.

    As for Ron Paul, his fake right eyebrow kept falling off! So I’m wondering if there is any myth behind eyebrows.

  • 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.

  • American growth…

    I disagree with Timothy Geithner. In order for America to grow, trimmings MUST be made. Visualize, if you will, pruning back your plants and removing dead leaves, branches and fruits. Likewise, cut spending in areas that are NOT productive but do so carefully for you can hurt a plant/society if you are rough and trim too much, too fast.

  • 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!

  • 20111010-Trying Theme

    For the longest time, I really like this one WordPress.com Theme: The Journalist 1.3 by Lucian Marin. But I never really used it.

    “The Journalist is a smart, minimal theme designed for professional journalists.”

    Here are few things about this theme:

    • Has normal-Georgia serif looking fonts.
    • Has black bar to set off the post title above and contents below.
    • Handles un/order lists and quotes nicely.
    • Lacks tagline, time stamp, top nav, templates for Links and Archives.
