We Are Swines For Getting The Flu!


This Swine Flu thing is so crazy! It is not the first or the last problem we are going to have with disease. Everyone is traveling to places that are dirty and where people don't have good common sense regarding germs. There are so many dirty restaurants and places all over the world, basically because people do not keep clean and do the things they should have been taught to do by their parents. I hate it when people yawn in an elevator or in other close quarters and don't cover their mouths. Or they sneeze and cough without covering their mouths. What slobs these people are. Where are their manners and brains? Of course germs will spread if you just spit and cough all over the place. Face it: there are less and less people with good habits regarding hygiene and germs. This swine flu is nothing. There's all kinds of stuff out there. Also, the hospitals are not safe at all. Nobody does their jobs in hospitals to keep things germ free. In fact I see all kinds of people coming home from their hospital jobs wearing their scrubs instead of changing into their street clothes. This way all the germs they came in contact with all day; they are walking around with in public spreading them. We have to educate people. Cover your mouth when sneezing, coughing or yawning. Wash your hands a lot. It's so sad people need this explained.

People Love Mediocrity


Lots of people love mediocrity. This Susan Boyle who has a great voice when she sings, is really not that good that she should be now considered a super fantastic singer. She sings very well, but is only so so. She's just mediocre. She is just a good singer. Nothing spectacular. There are tons of people that sing as well as she does. She is not worth being all over the media all over the world. As Andy Warhol said: "everyone will have 15 minutes of fame". That fits Susan Boyle perfectly, but because people love mediocrity she has been made into a pop idol. Hey, just my opinion.

I Am A Little Crazy!


Ok, I will confess right now: I have four activated cell phones. Now, one of them is all for business and one is also for mostly business, but the other two are for personal business and fun. Fun as in a toy; a gadget that entertains me and gives me nerdy things to do and enjoy. The Two for fun and personal business are the iPhone and the G1. The iPhone wins for the most useful and interesting gadget, and the most fun. All of the newest technology and developments are really coming in the cell phone market, or are already here. Cell phones to me are the ultimate gadget. Between all the apps and the OS, this is where it is all at for coolness. You really can't get any better tool, or play thing than a smart cell phone. Of course a companion lap top is important for backing up and syncing information to and from the phones. I guess a lap top is also the ultimate gadget because it is a much larger version of a smart phone without the direct calling services; although that is available too for mobile computers to some extent. So, I'm a little crazy, but these phones help me succeed and have fun too!

HBO Has Lots of Movies!


I called my Internet and TV Provider the other day because there was a short outage and they offered me HBO (which I don't have) for free for three months. I know that if you fail to cancel after three months they just rip you off every month for it. I made a note in my calendar to cancel it at the end of June or around there. The only problem is that I seem to always get hooked on some movie when I look through HBO programs. Sure enough I got hooked on Fracture with Anthony Hopkins. Not a bad flick, but nothing spectacular. I watched the whole darn thing!! Got totally hooked! Man, I wasted a lot of time! It was cool though!

Gotta Watch the Weight


Ok, now I have to really make sure I don't get too big. It will cost me if I fly somewhere.
I have always been thin, but as I am getting older things are happening. I have a little belly now which I have to get control of or I will be paying for two seats on the Airlines. I was made aware tonight that there are eight Airlines which charge for two seats if you are too big (how do yo sit in those little crappy airplane seats if you are "too big" anyway?).
Ok, no more food.
Bye the way is this acceptable behavior by the Airlines? Vote Here!

Blah Blah Blago


Blago is such a strange person. Is he mentally challenged? Of course he is! The guy is looking at being in Reality Shows and went all over Hollywood and New York on TV and Radio. What is with this jerk? Here's the bottom line: He is definitely guilty of screwing up the State of Illinois and so just for that I say put him away. If he does "go away', how is it that he can profit from TV stuff and write a book that only crazy people will buy? WTF!!!!!!! This is gonna be a really interesting court deal because so many other people worked with him to screw Illinois and the people in it. I figure half the people working for the City of Chicago will be in trouble too. OK.......enough "Politics"!

Government Money For TV Boxes?


This is really stupid: Just about anyone can get 2 Coupons for nothing from the US Government, that are worth $80.00 towards a purchase of Digital Converter Boxes. These will be necessary when the TV Stations go digital if you don't have cable or dish service (as if you didn't know).
Why is our Taxpayer money going for this? Simple: Government knows if the people can't watch TV, they will be pissed. I don't know if this is really the reason. I just think it is a waste of taxpayers money, but hey, if they are going to give me the coupons, why not take 'em? It might be the only thing they give me for a long long time. Usually they just take from me, so I got a couple of 'em. I will use one Box in the basement and then maybe give one to a friend or sell it. If you haven't gotten your coupons go to https://www.dtv2009.gov/ApplyCoupon.aspx
A good place for deals on the Boxes is http://www.meritline.com/default.aspx?

Strange New Weapon?


Can you imagine telling the cops that you were beat up by someone with a cap? Yes, a hat.  This is very Unusual.  It's called the Sap Cap!  A weighted cap that is made to defend yourself.  Wow!  Why didn't I think of this.  Maybe because it's even too insane for me to think up.
     
SAP CAP This standard baseball cap can be used as a blackjack or sap. Just use the bill as the handle and the cap as an weapon. The secret of the Sap Cap is the pocket of a unique impact material that is 110% the density of lead and will not rust. Velcro adjustment. Sugg. Retail: $59.99

Small Laptops Are Hot!


I have a little Acer One, which is a small 10" Laptop.  It is a full function computer with everything except a CD/DVD Drive built in. Has USB ports and a slot for an SD Card which is really cool.  Runs Windows XP very well too. Has a GB of ram and a 160GB Hard Drive. Every time I use it in a coffee shop or restaurant people stare at it and ask me what it is and say how cool it is.  These things are inexpensive too.  About $300 to $400.
If I were a maker of these things I would be marketing the heck out of it.  I have only met one person who didn't like it, but everyone wants one of these.  So how come they aren't marketing the heck out of them?  They fit the bill for travel, and mobile use so well, they are the perfect gadget.  I prefer the Mac OS, but nothing from Apple s available and if it is in the future, it will probably not be at the same price point.  
I bet you have one of these too!

Absolutely love my iPhone and the Win Mo Phones I have, but I want to get the Palm Pre as soon as it is available.  I wonder if anyone else up here wants it?  Please Vote!

What Year Is It?

Pirates on the sea? You mean we can't defend ourselves from Pirates? Is there such a thing as a gun or possibly surveillance? It's like we live in the old days. What is wrong here? Shoot the jerks and then they won't take your ship. Is this too hard to figure out?

I've just been told by a friend that guns are not allowed on merchant ships. Huh? WTF?

This Is Where It All Is


Tonight I take a break from all my crazy work and instead of listening to Frank Zappa play his guitar, I am writing my first post on my new Blog.

Here's my first question:
Is the Obama Chia Pet not politically correct?  Is it racist?  I found myself watching the commercial for it and wondering if I was not watching Saturday Night Live?  

I am not sure if it is racist or politically incorrect.
Please let me know what you think in comments.

Also, why are all of us working people not seeing any benefits from all these Government Bailouts?
