This is a sticker set that I use on a certain messenger. For installing and using it, I was sent a small amount of Bitcoin and now have a timeshare in a dacha in Peredelkino near Moscow.
It pays to be an operative. I’m really liking it.

I’m still in awe of this two-box DVD set I bought. 34 discs. Price was crazy good.
Television that I enjoyed from when I was a child all the way through adult. Love Peter Falk, plus so many great stars appeared in the series.
I’m currently doing about two sessions of it per week.

As I was driving through the business park in Greensboro today that contains an Amazon fulfillment center, I was thinking, “there’s not a business out here that’s paying a cent in taxes.” Like so many of those parks, it had that look about it.
All buildings new, pristine. Not a one ever rented a shabby warehouse then worked up to something nicer.
I’ve seen many that were one-item companies that made such things as an anti-static wipe or a plastic injector pen. My guess is that they burn through the “incentives,” drain assets, then vanish.
But what do I know. Not a thing.

The late My Opera Community friend and blogger Brian Francis Pretorius from South Africa. I miss him so much. He died a few years ago. Quite the marvelous friend.
https://brianfrances.wordpress.com/
After Opera Software killed off the online community, Brian and I moved to G+ (Google Plus) where we continued to have a good time. Then Google killed that off.
We continued on on Facebook, but the online fun was doomed. This WordPress has been kind of an archive.
I also archived my G+ activity on MeWe. MeWe is a closed community meaning you have to log in to see anything. These days I’m OK with that.
Brian Francis was fond of conventional telephone and used to call me a lot. I also called him. He was a heck of an ambassador for human beings.

I didn’t know that Vito’s (Cornwallis/Golden Gate) had bottles of wine to go. There were bunches of these up front by the door for 10 bucks. 🍷
Olive Garden also has wine to go. I didn’t know these places did. Maybe everybody does.
It’s amazing how beautiful they are.
People travel great distances to look at this one.
There is a chemtrail branching off to the right. Government spraying.

Pure, white, and so high she’s been sitting on that soap for a week afraid to move.

I remember when somebody looked at me wide-eyed and said, “you mean you don’t believe the assessment of ALL of the intelligence agencies?”
From today’s reading:
“Why would anyone give the lying, torturing, propagandizing, drug trafficking, coup-staging, warmongering, psychopathic Central Intelligence Agency the benefit of the doubt”

I was watching an episode of Columbo on DVD tonight. “Ransom for a Dead Man” 1971.
In the scene below, the company name “Host” on the cocktail lounge in LAX airport caught my eye. Brian and I both worked for Host a long long time ago. We knew a lot of people who did. Host ran a lot of those expensive businesses in airports all over the place.
In the picture below, actors Lee Grant and Peter Falk are going into the Host cocktail lounge where he will shortly charge her with murder.
Well prior to this television drama, Lee Grant was put out of work for a long time due to being charged under the McCarthy HUAC communist thing. She was blacklisted for twelve years, I think.
Will probably start having those type hearings again pretty soon.

Watching a favorite old TV series, in this case Columbo, the pilot from 1968.
I like to notice trivial details, like the preponderance of IBM Selectric typewriters and the make and model of the telephones.
In this scene I was flinching because the actor was dialing a telephone with a pencil, which is bad form. In another scene, somebody was dialing the phone with their finger but turning the dial back rather than releasing it at the finger stop. Bad, bad, bad. lol
I also noticed the thick blanket of smog over Los Angeles in other scenes.
