  • 20100228-Humor Time

    Out of sheer friggin’ boredom, I recall two of my favorite television commercials for Wendy’s – `Wendy’s® is the real choice in fast food. We deliver quality fresh food with real ingredients that provide the best tasting fast food at wendys.com.`

    So I browsed the YouTube.com website and came across two parodies:

    I’ve fallen and I can’t get up! by ddonq on November 15, 2008, 08:14 PM:

    Wendy’s: Where’s the Beef? (2008 Parody of Original) by JamesVDeStefano on September 04, 2008, 09:01 PM

    Enjoy! Haha!

  • 20100228-Chilled Out

    It’s late in the morning and I came across a recently YouTube.com video:

    The President Speaks on Chile Earthquake by whitehouse on February 27, 2010

    Since it was late, I viewed the video with the aid of the subtitles, luckily, and kept the volume to the speakers low so as not to awaken the sleeping one next door to my computer room upstairs. Here are the subtitles to his speech that day:

    The President: Good morning everybody.

    Earlier today, a devastating earthquake stuck the nation of Chile, affecting millions of people. This catastrophic event was followed by multiple aftershocks, and has prompted tsunami warnings across the Pacific Ocean.

    Earlier today, I was briefed by my national security team on the steps that we’re taking to protect our own people, and to stand with our own Chilean friends.

    Early indications are that hundreds of lives have been lost in Chile, and the damage is severe.

    On behalf of the American people, Michelle and I send our deepest condolences to the Chilean people.

    The United States stands ready to assist in the rescue and recovery efforts, and we have resources that are positioned to deploy should the Chilean government ask for our help.

    Chile is a close friend and partner of the United States, and I’ve reached out to President Bachelet to let her know that we will be there for her should the Chilean people need assistance, and our hearts go out to the families who may have lost loved ones.

    We’re also preparing for a tsunami that could reach American shores later today, particularly in Hawaii, American Samoa and Guam.

    A tsunami warning is in place, and people have been alerted to evacuate coastal areas.

    I urge citizens to listen closely to the instructions of local officials, who will have the full support of the federal government as they prepare for a potential tsunami, and recover from any damage that may be caused.

    I also urge our citizens along the West Coast to be prepared as well, as there may be dangerous waves and currents throughout the day.

    Again, the most important thing that you can do is to carefully heed the instructions of your state and local officials.

    Once again, we have been reminded of the awful devastation that can come at a moment’s notice. We can’t control nature, but we can and must be prepared for disaster when it strikes.

    In the hours ahead, we’ll continue to take every step possible to prepare our shores and protect our citizens.

    And we will stand with the people of Chile as they recover from this terrible tragedy.

    Thank you very much, everybody.

    I’ve highlighted more clues in bold. It may mean something but I’m not sure exactly what.

  • 20100220-Failures Stand

    At 15:00pm (Pacific Time), we watched C-SPAN. Below is a YouTube.com video of my favorite segment of the following event:

    Glenn Beck Keynote Speech at CPAC Pt 3 of 6 by therightscoop – Watch the ENTIRE SPEECH at http://www.therightscoop.com

    Here is my translation of a few snippets:

    2:20 through 3:33 – my favorite snippet

    What are you doing today? You have the right to say it. This is a God given right. You have the right to say it without failure there is no growth.

    15 years ago, I was completely broke. I was completely out of control. I had no answers in my life. None. I was living in a tiny room. I lost my family. I lost everything. My life was spiraling out of control.

    I was in a fetal position of my apartment. Am I going to die or am I going to figure it out and live?

    Because noone was there and if somebody would have been there to hold me up, I would not have been down here enough to be able to dust myself off and say, “No! I’m not going to spend my life here! I’m going to stand up on my own two feet and figure it out.”

    And because of that failure I can stand here today.

    3:59

    Without failure there is no weakness in success. There is no understanding of it. And we’re say there are these people too big to fail […]

    Yes, without failure, I too wouldn’t be sitting here in front of the computer while ranting and raving through this weblog! I know too much.

    Yet without these HARSH lessons in life, I would have continued onto the path of destruction – the need to feel wanted, wanting to feel needed and basically believing in a FAILED cause of personally helping complete, friggin’ strangers to the point of going into debt.

    The MIND-programming went along the Biblical dogma of sacrifices, a Christian upbringing ingrained into my sense of ego. I failed to understand to have mercy on myself first and foremost before taking on something unknown – unconventional investing of my hard-earned pennies, time and my energy to a bunch of telepathic parasites!

    Yes, the feeling of `reaching across the aisle` and `sharing the wealth` could be comparable to Glenn Beck’s alcoholic addiction: It was VERY difficult to stop once the `ball started rolling`. And unfortunately, the boulder rolled back upon moi and crushed dear life with a dose of reality, where innocence suffers and betrayals are self-inflicted. I’d vomit.

    Going off topic, also notice, if you will, the first three persons of the `CPAC Presidential Straw Poll Results`:

    • Rep. Ron Paul – 31%
    • Mitt Romney – 22%
    • Sarah Palin – 7%

    These three and the rest not shown here are all tongue-flicking reptoids. I see another double digit with the number `22` (or twenty-two) next to Mitt’s name. Check out the time stamps for the snippets, too. Who are you? What are you? Hello!

  • 20100220-The Exodus

    This morning at around 08:30am or so, Maw was watching the `Arts` channel on KCSM. And there was this pianist playing `The Exodus` on a Steinway, first very deliberately slow (almost New Age in style) and then fast, rapido! The film was in black and white.

    I actually have the sheet music for piano and was humming along with the tune.

    Then later on this mid-morning, I viewed four YouTube.com videos about `The Exodus and the Red Sea Crossing` of Ron Wyatt and his discoveries of places in Saudi Arabia where Biblical references to Moses and his people crossing a body of water with the center between 900 to 1000 feet in depth.

    Then I viewed the two YouTube.com videos about `The Physical remains of Sodom and Gomorrah` and believe this event actually took place based on their findings of sulfur and rocks turning to ash. Once again, the wife of Ron Wyatt narrates with her thick accent. YEE! HAH!

  • 20100219-Let’s Move

    I’m currently watching a YouTube.com video:

    Making Healthy Food Accessible & Affordable by whitehouse

    First Lady Michelle Obama travels to Philadelphia, PA to discuss federal funding for a new multi-year Healthy Food Financing Initiative which will increase the availability of affordable, healthy foods in underserved urban and rural communities, particularly through the development or equipping of grocery stores and other healthy food retailers. Learn more at http://www.letsmove.gov

    Yes, fat and lazy people should move their bloated bodies out from their beds and couches. They should stop sitting in front of the computer, too. Exercising and dieting should help make healthier people and more productive workers for the state.

    A lot of the bad food is manufactured by businesses. Go to your local supermarket. What do you see? I see lots of snacks and all sorts of food packaged in plastic containers. Even the drinks are colorful and probably full of sugar.

    Nutritious food are found in the produce section. There are lots of fruits and vegetables that the body needs more than food from the meat section, too.

    I wonder how children could get healthier if restaurants serve the food that smells and looks good, loaded with lots of salt, cheese, grease, etc. You name it: Fast food goes in fast and stays in the body better than cooking healthy food at home.

  • 20100217-Noticing Numbers

    Out of sheer friggin’ boredom, I was browsing my old music files on my computer and wanted to find a YouTube.com video to match the sound. I found Robot Carnival OST: Heart & Hand (by boomadatigger). I see 333 views.

  • 20100216-Hazy Sun

    After taking my shower to wash away my iniquities and grim from this afternoon’s gardening, I sit and soak in the sun filtering through the closed windows upstairs. I’m listening to more guitar sounds of `Chi Mai by Ennio Morricone` via a downloaded YouTube.com. It’s soothing sound to the nerves as the sun shines wearily through light white to gray haziness while the red and brown muck can be ever so slightly seen below the horizon and in the distant westward hills of the Bay Area.

  • 20100216-Adding Favorites

    Last night, I’ve listened to old YouTube.com videos, which I downloaded into my computer. Then I browsed around for more music videos and added some to my `Favorites` in my YouTube.com account `flynnspaws’s Channel`. Some of my favorites included:

    Mantovani

    Annunzio Paolo Mantovani (November 15, 1905 – March 29, 1980), known by the mononym Mantovani, was a popular conductor and light orchestra-style entertainer with a cascading strings musical signature. He is more associated with the light orchestra genre than any other entertainer.

    Other favorite music videos include the string instruments (such as ukulele, guitar and piano). The music genres are: New Age, orchestration, etc…

  • 20100209-Tickle Me

    Do you remember `Tickle Me Elmo`?

    Tickle Me Elmo, is a children’s toy from Tyco-Prescool, a division of Tyco Toys. It was introduced in the United States in 1996, becoming that year’s top fad. Bright red in color and based on Elmo, a Muppet character from Sesame Street, when squeezed, Elmo would chortle. When squeezed three times in a row, Elmo would begin to shake and laugh hysterically.

    Here is an image of the `Tickle Me Elmo` from wikipedia.org:

    Tickle Me Elmo
    Image of entire doll – Tickle Me Elmo

    Out of sheer boredom and a reason to laugh out loud, I viewed a recent YouTube.com video of two boys having “fun” again a few minutes ago. The older brother was tickling his younger (asthmatic?) brother.

    Of course, I had to take a breather or else pop a nice vein or two in my noggin. Click the link to hear the audio:

    `Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. That tickles.`

    Then my mind made yet another connection. And I do recall sending out `tickling thoughts` to the boys prior or after the time that the video was uploaded on February 06, 2010. I’d figured it was before the upload. Then again, I’m fast getting old and cannot remember. I’d better stop thinking too much or out loud to myself and keep my imaginations to myself. Sheesh!

  • 20100208-Keep Praying

    Maw finally finished talking to the Bitter one for the past two hours starting at around 20:00pm tonight. In summary of Maw’s brief conversation with the impatient moi, I’ve learned the following:

    `When in doubt or distress, don’t loose faith. It’s God’s will but ask Jesus for help. When you don’t have the time and money, there is always prayers`.

    I am then reminded of the boy’s lack of faith and continued arrogance within earshot of the Lord, of course, as in the following dialogue exchange below:

    Maw: Son, I notice you don’t attend weekly mass.

    Boy: Don’t test my faith in God!

    He makes all sorts of excuses and externalizes his inner demons by blaming the crowds, which make him anxious, the hard pews, which makes sitting down unbearable, and the boring mass, which distracts his already ADD symptoms.

    I will then make the comparison between the boy and the President, both of whom I find contempt but mercy, nonetheless for their ignorance in the truth about faith:

    Between the times of 10:53 to 10:57 for the 16:56 minutes in length of the following YouTube.com video, here is what President Obama has to say:

    `Surely you can question my policies without questioning my faith; or for that matter my citizenship…`

    Here is a YouTube.com video titled:

    President Obama Speaks at National Prayer Breakfast by whitehouse (February 04, 2010)

    Prayers do work, somehow when least expected. The answers will appear when necessary AND only when it is NOT too late to CHANGE the course of action. But when the injury and damage have already been done, don’t expect God to heal amputees, for example. BUT, again anything possible, like bionic (or cloned) parts for these amputees.

    As Maw has said many times in the past:

    `God works in mysterious ways`.

    We could learn from the wise woman Maw and Barack Obama in the `power of prayer`:- So for the critics, such as moi, there is reason to live without fear or pain and that’s by keeping the VERY strong impulses of the EGO of each person from imploding on itself.

  • 20100206-Watching Videos

    I’ve been watching videos late last night, got only four hours of sleep and don’t feel sleepy at all! Now I’m watching two videos about small business from the `YouTube – whitehouse’s Channel (or http://www.youtube.com/user/whitehouse). The way business is operated starts with credit then loans and then repayment on a friggin` MONTHLY basis! Here is a simple scenario:

    1. Without capital and/or loans, there is no business.
    2. Without financial HELP, there are no products and services.
    3. Without goods for sale, there are no jobs.
    4. Without employment, there is no money.
    5. Without money, there are no purchases.
    6. Repeat 3. above until a DEPRESSION!

    The bottom line: Only the wealthy could lend money to help small business. Investors, like moi, had to money but invested anyway. Without a job, bills pile up. When poor people are forced to starve and to go homeless, there is something wrong with the system.

    I was thinking of winning the Lottery. But because I’m `bad luck`, there is no hope. The only hope is a small piddling, whichever comes first or whatever, if any. I need a job dammit! Without a job, I’ll have to get [back] MY MONEY the hard but right way, of course.
