Well after eight years up and running, I had to once again change the blog and recreate it on a different web host. Quick aside… tech companies like host providers have to figure out that teaser rates are only good to attract business but not keep business. I finally stopped the auto-renew of the host at ($10/mo) and jumped ship. I think I will be doing this for the next few years until I find a company with good long-term rates (around $4/mo is what I’m thinking for my little personal website that has no commercial characteristics at all. So, […]
Where did all the Stupid people come from? Or don’t state the obvious
Lately, more and more frequently people are needing to state the obvious because some people aren’t smart enough to understand the obvious without it being stated.A colleague recently (just a few minutes ago in fact) stated something that was obvious to everyone else. I then realized that it is not only the person who needs to have the obvious details stated to them, but there are people who state the obvious because they don’t know it is obvious to everyone else.Now, I know I’m being pedantic [aren’t I always] but this is not an obtuse point. Kind of like when […]
I feel my humanity slipping
I don’t know if it is a byproduct of my life’s experiences or if I am just not connected to it any longer, but I find myself liking People less and less everyday. The reason I capitalized “people” is I mean the whole lot of Us. No, I don’t think your baby is cute… No, I don’t care to endure family for Christmas…. Yes, that makes your butt look FAT — your ass is fat without that… No, I don’t give a damn that your feelings are hurt. Could you put that cigarette down or just stop blowing smoke in […]
Las Vegas police speed traps got ya down… !
Damn! LVMPD (Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Dept.) finally got me. Up in my part of town there are several persistent police speed traps near my neighborhood. I have witnessed dozens of traps over the last few years on Centennial Center Blvd starting at Grand Montecito Blvd down to the Ann Rd intersection. I guess because this is such a booming commercial area that we have to be protected in such a manner – of course at the same time LVMPD doen’t come to assist if you have a car accident in the city. I remember last year or so police […]

Change your thinking people
People always asky “Why me?!” when something bad or not so good happens to them. Instead try asking yourself “Why NOT me?!” I am reminded of a guy who asked “Why me?!” when he was arrested for narcotics possession. I remember thinking — “You had a POUND of meth in your possession!!!!” — “Why NOT you?! … If not you, then who?” I had a friend who lost her job, asking “Why me?!” I thought “because you don’t do you job” who “Why not her?”
Stop! Don’t Use These Words – They’re So Irritating! | LinkedIn
Stop! Don’t Use These Words by Bernard Marr via Stop! Don’t Use These Words – They’re So Irritating! | LinkedIn. “At the end of the day” – What does that even mean? Does it mean later? Just leave it out! “To be honest” – Why, are you normally not honest with me? What a crazy thing to say! “If you know what I mean” – If I don’t know what you mean I would probably tell you. I don’t need a prompt. “You know” – Is this a question or a statement? “Having said that” – Yes, you have just […]
