Because so many of you keep bothering me and hounding me and then insulting me by saying mean things like my ears are lop sided and that’s why I haven’t gotten any information yet.
I figured I would pass along the latest information.
I got a call this morning and was told that I am supposed to start on January 9th.
Woot, hurray, sweet, yea and other things like that.
What does this mean you might ask?
About $250 more a month, a higher pension and a quicker retirement date.
The negatives though … I don’t know what shift I will be working or what days off I might get.
So I could be back on midnights with Wednesday and Thursday off … equaling, no life again.
I don’t think that this is going to happen but it is always a chance and a fear in my head.
Lets all hope not please!
So, it will make deciding what to wear each morning a lot easer and … yea … why am I doing this again?
My current boss is dumbfounded and not happy.
He is not only losing me but we as of Jan 1st went into a hiring freeze so he will get stuck having to do my job … and his that I have also been helping out with now for years.
Sucks to be him … is it wrong to think that he deserves what he is getting?That’s that, I will let you all know what shift and what I will be doing as soon as I know.

So, what’s going on …
I have not posted as much as one person likes and I am sorry to be such a great disappointment … still …
That being said I, as I have said in the past, am working on a few projects to try and make the world a better place, more fun place and of course just make money for me!
Now you all might think that I would be a mean rich man but in fact I think I will be kind.
I will finally pay so many of you back, and supply hours of entertainment in one way or another.
From laughing with me, to laughing at me.
I am such a giving person aren’t I?
So lets give you all an ideal of the three projects I am working on shall we?
First, brace yourself, no really … writing a book.
I know it will never go anywhere but I have started it anyway and it is about how I and a bunch of other people see the world and just basic ranting.
A lot like how my Blog started … hum …groundwork?
Second, yea you might want to sit down for this one … thinking about and working on starting a non profit organization.
I know what you are thinking, WHAT!
It has been bouncing around for weeks now after it hit me and anything that does that with my ADD must have a reason right?
It will be based on people in need of assistance forced a pone them from improper government actions.
Such as: False Imprisonment, Innocent being shot, car stolen and police using Tac Strips and blowing all your tires and it’s more then your insurance, Fire Figthers breaking the windows of your car from across the street to get to a fire hydrant, a controlled burn getting out of hand or when they push a broken down car off a bridge.
It will be an insurance deduction ‘helping’ program and just a helping hand for people hurt by government agencies … hehe think I can get a government grant?
Yes police and insurance reports will be mandatory.
Yes, proof of income and bills will be required.
Because Single mom with three kids might need some help with her $500 hundred dollar insurance deductible but million dollar man might not.
Then again he might, he could be floating his employee’s in his company from his own wallet hoping that’s the market recovers, you never know!
There is a lot more to it and it is just something to look into at this point.
Me trying to be nice?
What is the world coming to?
O the gold old days …
Third, trying to patent and get the designs finished up for an ideal that I had.
I am not saying it is the next big ideal or even the next million dollar answer … but by golly the few people I have told think it’s great.
OK, my mother didn’t but Wife and I have come up with additional items to make you happy too.
I am not going to say what it is because I am afraid of to many people hearing about it and making it before me … that’s my luck L
I will say that it came to me after looking at a pair of Truck Nuts …
Feel free to call though because I love pitching it!
Let me tell you all a little about how hard this is though, not because you care but because I feel like it!
Trying to find a molding company to make a prototype = Head Ache!
Wait, it needs to be painted too doesn’t it … = Darn this is hard!
OK, wait, you mean that they don’t package it for you either? = New level of Head Ache!
Patents take money, and lots of it. = Thoughts of ‘This will never work!’
Trying to keep your product ‘All American’? = Long term losses in profit, but a better feeling about yourself … sorta …
Getting to see your friends and families faces as they see your product everywhere and how they look to the ground in shame and disappointment? = PRICELESS!
Getting to go back to your school were they told you that you were worthless and would never amount to anything and tell them not only are you retired at 35 with a million in the bank but you never even finished school? = A dear God level PRICELESS!
Being looked at possibly as a famous interest because I not only came up with ‘Said Item’, a best selling novel about how the world is looked at so differently from so many different people and a great ontrapanewer (I have no clue how to spell that and spell check isn’t pulling up any variation either … then again I can find that spelling on Google?) big into charity work and things of that nature = Well, we all know that will never happen, it isn’t my luck!
Forth, trying to get my comic strip up and going again.More on that shortly I am sure …

It's good to have goals ...

Computer Issues …
I was looking up some stuff for some stuff that I needed to look up and low and behold my computer tells me it doesn’t like the site I am trying to go to and then shuts down the Internet browser.
Don’t think that way you all dirty minded people, it wasn’t one of those sites!
I, as most people attempt to reopen the browser and load a new web page and low and behold it says “This program cannot display the web page” & most likely I am not connected to the Internet.
What … hum, lets look a little deeper into this then shall we?
I glance down to my model and low and behold all of the little lights on it are on and it seems to be working properly.
I know, lets disconnect the power to the modem and see if that helps to have it reboot … nope.
So, me being of a brilliant level of inelegance decide to restart my computer and see what happens … yea still no connection.
OK, so now that none of that has worked … lets hit it with a Virus Scan and Malware Scan, woot we got something!
I guess we need one better protection ...
So … why can’t my computer delete said files?
OK, lets go try this manually!
… So why can’t I delete said file?
Time laps … you know the words “Let’s do the Time Warp AGAIN!!!’
OK, got the file deleted … got all the scans done … did a defragment just because … still not working, what is wrong?!?!
It’s been 3 hours why can’t I figure this out?
… Wait … what’s that blinking yellow explanation mark in the bottom right hand corner?
You know the one that we noted 3 hours ago but passed over because we have ideals and must go through all of the actions that we must because we think that we know what is best and we will get to that latter … O, look a balloon bubble …
So now that I, with my super intelligence and mastery of computer skills have figured out not only what was wrong but also have now indeed fixed it, I can post and tell you that …
Microsoft has a program called Big Fix that flashes a yellow explanation mark when there is a problem and if you click on it there is a good chance it will let you know not only what your problem is, but how to fix it.
At least I didn’t have to call tech support this time!
I have to take what I can get in the ways of how I can view accomplishments!
Shut up I hate you all!
I need a Mac :(

Delusions of Grandeur …
Don’t we all know that person who thinks that they are better then everyone else or that they are just the top dog when everyone else knows that they are not?
Ever think that someone has something like Napoleon syndrome?
Ever think that the people sitting next to you are idiots as you listen in on their conversation?
We have all had the boss, who got the job only God knows how, who in fact doesn’t know a thing about what any of us do, but is sure that his way is the best way.
Isn’t it strange how we all look at them and think that we are better or that we could do the job O’ so much better …
My point, we all look down on people.
If you say that you don’t you are a liar and you know it.
No, really if you think that you don’t you are just stupid!
You might not think it but that janitor might have the answer to the problems you have.
That crazy cousin Pat of yours might not have a clue about this and that normally but that one time she might just be the apple you were looking for.
We all look at things differently and a collage degree does not make you any smarter then the next guy, just a little more educated.
Then again, haven’t we all been in a place were we realize we don’t fit in and people take note, or when we say something that seems brilliant to us and everyone just blows us off because it’s a dumb ideal to them?
Don’t we all know in some way or another how bad it feels to be looked down a pone?
The world is 3 dimensional for a reason … OK it has more but we aren’t getting into all of that …
As you look at one side of an item and I look at another we see two different things.
This also goes along with upbringing and the paths our lives have taken us.
That doesn’t mean that the Farmer can come in and do the accounting job just as quickly or as easily, or that the accountant can come out and work a field as easily as the farmer.
Knowledge in your fiend and education do help but that doesn’t mean that the new guy or the guy down the hall can’t be of help.
At the end of the day don’t we all need the other people around us no matter what there job is?
Another thing is that at anytime we can change places with the person next to us and be in their shoes, so watch your step.
There is an old saying about being nice on your way up because you never know who you will meet on your way back down.
When and how did Humility get lost to the world?
Who gave us the right to judge another anyway?
Also, for those of you who think that you are better then another, I will gladly point out another who is better then you.
Who are we to look down our noses at another and talk badly about them behind there back … you know you do it behind them because you know it’s wrong in your heart and there for will not stand up and say it to there faces.
Saying ‘I don’t normally bad mouth anyone, but …’ doesn’t make it better either!
I am not sure of the recipe for Humble Pie, mind you I could use some myself some times … OK a lot of the time … OK shut up about it already, but I think that most all of us could use at least one slice.
Some people need a bakery full of it I think though …
So, next time you are pointing out the people next to you at dinner and making fun of them sit back and think … Are the people on the other side of you thinking the same thing about you and making fun of you?
We could all use a reminder once and a while that no one is above another, and that in fact we all need to wash each others feet a little more often.
Epically you hypocritical Christians …

Could have been Memories …
We as a people sit back and get upset sometimes about what we think should have been and then ponder why said things didn’t go the way we wanted them to.
Well, things happen for a reasons weather we can see why or not.
I know I know we have all heard this before and have been told that we must just have faith … this though doesn’t help it or make it any easer as we all know!
That being said … we must have faith that in the long run things will work out for the greater good and that in the end the guy who just lied to get the job that you had wanted will be found out … or that if he doesn’t that something else of equal bad might happen to him.
Some times though things don’t come clear and an answer cannot be found.
At least not in our lives that is, but we are going to move on to that a little latter in this topic.
What kind of world would it be in if we all got what we though we deserved?
What if everyone had won the Lotto?
Or, if everyone was able to keep that first childhood love, because it was right?
The world would be filled with people like Paris Hilton!
Do we really think a world of Hilton’s is a good ideal?
… Speaking about the Hilton’s, what happened to her sister Nicky anyway?
Option #1 Eaten by wolves and now trying to clone her from her three toes they found?
Option #2 Faked wolf attack and cut off a few toes so people would stop looking for her because she was so ashamed of her family?
Option #3 Cleaned up her act because she was afraid to see her girl parts all over the news like her sisters?
Nah, more likely something normal like … whisked away to a nunnery!
Back to the point though …
We also need the lowly blue color workers in the world and if we all had our choice no one would ever want to work in the New York Sewers now would they … OK Mike Rowe might but he is a different kind of strange … Steve Erwin would have too, but only because the alligators needed rescuing.
We need the negativity and pain though to grow and learn.
We need the heartbreak and horrors to show us, and or others, what it could be like in a world with no pain.
We might not like it or understand it, but, we all have our place and lot in life weather we decided to choose it or not.
We might have chosen to have this life though because it sucks and we might be abused or hungry but our souls can take it.
Hum, that might need more enlightenment …
I look at it like this (fade to your minds eye … but keep reading so stay in the real world … ok read this then try and picture it in your minds eye … yea that’s better … I think …)
So you are sitting up in your pre-spiritual world of your own choice and denomination, and you and your little sibling who is of a slower mind set, because even in this place we need to be better then everyone else, come up to the giant fire pole in the sky and the chief looks down and says ‘Wow little Pat your life is going to suck this time around!’ and then tells little Pat all about how bad it will be.
You being the good sibling that you are know that simple minded Pat can’t possibly survive this adventure and decide to step up and take the role yourself and plummet toward Earth knowing your life will suck but in the end you helped little Pat out.
You live your life out and ponder what you could have done to deserve this but in the end you get on to your afterlife and sit back realizing for the rest of time that you were the good sibling and it all makes since in the end living out eternity in a joyful mood.
(Insert warm and cuddly feeling here)
Meanwhile Pat ends up taking over your lot in life and ends up with a good life … being of a slower intellect and an inability to process things very well ends up throwing it all down the drain and befriends Paris Hilton.
The point is, we don’t know what the reason for our lives is.
It could be just so that one day a rich man sees me pandering on the street corner and it is just at that moment that everything in his world clicks and he turns from Scrooge into a wonderful charitable person and starts donates money to this and that.
It could be that your whole life is just so that one day when you are walking down the street you smile at a stranger for no good reason and the thoughts of the world being a horrible place and the thoughts of dirtying the front of a city bus flood out of his mind and he works toward and finds the cure for dog allergies … what a wonderful world that would be!
We just never know!
So, enjoy what you have, look forward to the future & don’t dwell on the past and what we think ‘Could have been Memories’ and have faith in the thought that everything does happen for some reason weather we understand it or not.

Crickets ...
Need I say more ...
I wish I could then I wouldn't feel like that picture was so true!
I need topics.
How can I rant on just normal things and every day life?
I feel incomplete.
I could, no, that could and would never work ... could it?
Nah, I never talk about that ... hum ... I must think on this ...
I can't believe you all still check this thing!

Weight Loss Plan …
I have been working out not for a few months trying to loose weight.
No one noticed so I am going with I am not doing it that entirely well.
I have though now come up with a wonderful way of dropping off the pounds in no time flat!
It does have a few side effects but over all isn’t being thin the goal and what ever means needed to reach it justifiable?
Even better yet, most of the time you are working on said weight loss you will find yourself asleep and only disturbed few a fee moments every hour or so with the inconvenience of the actual work needed to gain your weight loss goal.
Yes my Brothers and Sister, you guessed it right … ok not a tapeworm you … wait for it!
That’s right, FOOD POISONING!
I know for a fact that I have lost around 8 pounds … I will not tell you all why or how but just believe me!
I have lost enough weight that my close are loose and that I can actually see a difference in my size … yeppers, this has been an eye opener!
The thing I think I need to point out most though is if you don’t think that you are meeting your goals drink some milk!
O, yea!
Milk is a magical concoction that coats your stomach walls and … well … disagrees with said Food Poisoning too making you loose the few extra pounds just like that.
All joking aside, I have never had this before, and I would not wish it on anyone!
I would like to think that I don’t complain to much about ailments … this is another level of nasty though and people, I am SO sorry for any of you who have gotten it or still might in the future!
I am going to go pass out now and … I will leave it at that!
