I’m thinking about going to bed, and the bed gets taken over.

science-y believer

Posted on September 5, 2022 | 1 comment

I’m noticing certain things that run together:

— blaming all net failures on hackers from a certain country
— having a certain national flag in the bio
— stating “I’m a science-based person. I believe in science.”
— regularly posting fluff science-y articles. “It’s science Friday!”

Oh, I might as well say it, their POV on everything completely aligns with the US government. 😱

hating the right ones

Posted on September 5, 2022 | Leave a comment

Contacts of mine on social media spewing hate and false things about certain countries (the ones they’re told to), and one of the things that runs through my immature mind is, “leave it alone. A lot of good porn comes out of that country.”

potus tweet: do not attempt this at home – for demonstration purposes only

Curiously bizarre Tweet for entertainment purposes only. 🤞

(POTUS Tweet: America respects free and fair elections. We honor the will of the people. We do not deny it.)

friday rituals

Posted on September 3, 2022 | Leave a comment

I was surprised on Friday. An afternoon before a 3-day weekend, and nobody melted down on the company e-mail.

Read no e-mails that come in after 1 PM on Fridays. It’s the drama queen hours.

magic 8 ball

Posted on September 2, 2022 | Leave a comment

I wish I had thought of the high accuracy of the Magic 8-Ball when I was a young guy clubbing all the time.

Before going out to the club for the evening, I could ask it, “does [insert name] want to hook up with me?”

If I got a classic 8 Ball answer like, “it is decidedly so,” I could walk up to the person in the club with confidence and say, “drink up baby!” 🎱👍

beer hunt

Posted on September 2, 2022 | Leave a comment

I’m not sure the product locator is accurate, but I’m going to try to track down this beer this weekend. It was really delicious when it was made in Eden, but I don’t know where they make it now.

revive an old habit

Posted on September 2, 2022 | Leave a comment

I think I’ll start smoking again. American Spirit yellow pack was the best. Pair it with a nearly frozen Miller Genuine Draft. Add shot of tequila if needed.

I’m sorry that beer has nearly vanished from stores. MGD.

I am not going to start smoking.

latin american history course

Posted on September 1, 2022 | Leave a comment

Another great memorable course I had at the “nearby university” was a Latin-American history course taught by a professor who was tortured in Chile during the Pinochet years.

One can imagine how rich the coursework was.

my morals so bad

Posted on September 1, 2022 | 1 comment

Long time ago, I took a summer course called “morality and ethics” at a nearby university.

The professor was a visiting one from England picking up a temporary paycheck. He was a hoot.

Several times the class dissolved into shouting matches and near fights. People would run out of the classroom, slam the door, and sometimes there was crying. There was no nudity. lol

One of the best courses I ever had. I told the professor that. It energized my day every time.
