The Day The Earth Stood Still

 

September 8th, 2011:

Once upon a time, a guy named Klaatu visited Earth with a huge Robot named GORT and he scared the wits out of the whole world by shutting off ALL of the power in the world for a half an hour.

This scenario was played out in San Diego, County, Arizona, and Mexico at 3:00pm on September 8^th 2011. Only, it was not just a half an hour, it is now 9:19pm DST and I am still without power for my little pos area of the Infrastructure Grid. All day long, we have had NO power, NO cell phones, NO Land lines, no internet whatsoever, no WiFi, no LoFi, and no HiFi.

At 3:00pm, I was at a College Avenue Shopping Centre, and I watched as ALL power ceased and desisted. It took me 15 minutes to get to College Avenue at El Cojones Blvd; it took me over an hour to get home to Spring Valley. There were a few Traffic lights, but everywhere I went, there was massive Gridlock, when I got home, ALL my power was out. I was fortunate enough to have some very cold air circulating through my Hovel right before the power went out, and my Freezer and Refrigerator was Ice-Cold, so my goodies I crammed into me Freezer, therefore all the “Foodah” I had just bought is still good.

I thought, “Ah, Power Outage, too bad, it’ll be back up in a few”- WRONG. According to the president of San Diego Beans, Gas, farts and Electric Twaddle, this scenario COULD have taken over 96 hours to get power fully restored. Think about that, 96 hours, how many DAYS is that, this is akin to the 3-Day (?) Blackout in NYC during the Summer of Sam.

This is some frightening PooDoo. I tried looking up the status of the power outage on the Internet, and my iPhone would NOT bring up any websites. I have not been able to make any calls, and as my land line goes through Cocksuck Cable, no Land Line calls, period.

But I also had NO cell phone for the entire time, only Sporadic TEXTING.

Near 7:45, I took a drivel around the neighborhood, and I asked a bunch of iPhoners, can you call out? Nope! Can you Text? Sometimes.

So this was some scary Shite. As I sit here, and thank God I had charged my Lap-bottom earlier today so I had a full charge – No Internet, but I can write this Blog, I reflect on this evening: This is the first time I have seen the STARS since I was a little kid – When I was 6 to 9 years old, my area used to be a very Rural area, and so at night my brother and I used to look at the Constellations and Planets and gunk… 40 years later, there has been so much development in the area that at night we are lucky to see the MOON, and maybe if we are lucky, Venus.

(Page 0.1)

As I went for a short drive earlier, I stopped at a few places and looked at the beautiful, black SKY “My God! It’s full of Stars!” to quote Kier Dullea from “2010”. I have not seen such beauty in the sky, it was just amazing. And now, I am hearing reports, Lights in Mexico… Lights up North along Hiway 15, and now in National Chitty. Still no lights at my house – I suppose they will eventually get to it.

In my sporadic ability to text my friends, I spoke to one of my fiends who works up near Sorrento Valley, he left his work at 4:00 and by 6:30 he was only halfway home. I wished him luck, I do not know if he got my text message. But I was, and am, severely worried about all my friends who were stuck travelling- And although it took me about an hour and 15 minutes to drive something like 6 miles earlier today, I was very concerned for my friend.

As much as this incident was inconvenient for us, it also raises a note of fear: We ARE dependent on this Electric Infrastructure. It also causes me to question, those two huge gray TEATS up near San Onofre, Where in 10,000 Blazes does that power go to? That Nuke Station was created for SAN DIEGO – It is my understanding, that not only are they in the middle of DECOMMISIONING this vast power supply, that could power San Diego and County for Years and Years, the power generated by that Test Teat is not even being given to San Diego! It is being piped way over to the Midwest.

And so, at 10:20pm, I took a walk outside and I can see, less than three miles away, a blaze of Lights near La Presa/South Spring Valley… But where I am, not a single light blazes, except for a few on the hill to the east of me… Probably generated power. But to the North of me, Mount Helix is Dark, Dark… So as the Rep from SDG&E was saying, they are turning on the power from the North Down, and from the South Up – We in Spring Valley and La Mesa, are probably in the middle of this area, we’ll get our power meted out to us last. We were the first to lose power; we’re the last to get it back.

So as I swelter, my only comfort, a tiny battery operated hand-fan, and the only light I have from three candles, and one portable battery operated music-stand light, I am asking when in 57 blazes can I turn my AC back on? I was lucky earlier today to have a nice cool house, but without new cool air, my tin can becomes a sweatsock. Fortunately, my water heater was not affected, I was able to take two showers, which felt good, I took a hot shower followed by cold shivering water. But as my candles dim and the battery in my music stand light starts to fail, and now my laptop battery is down to 44%, maybe an hour or so left, if they do not get power back to me soon, I’ll be sitting in the hot, sweltering pitch dark.

At 10:45pm, the Street Lights in my park came BACK ON… Still no power to my house though. They installed these new Electronic gas and electric metres, which I suppose sends the info as to how much power and gas I used per month directly to SDGE… This meter has not yet powered up, the LCD Display is as Blank as a Sucked-Dry Teat. So… Im gonna drive around a bit, try to find a cigar somewhere.

9-8-2011, the Day San Diego Stood Still

Testing a Fookin’ LiveWriter Butt-Plug I never knew I had, so fook oof.

Once upon a fukin’ time there was a band called Social Spit. They usta play all kindsa shows opening for great bands in SD. Now we’re doin it again, 32 years later, so shuddup.

ABOUT DISRESPECT

6-4-2011 PHARMACY and MEATWAGON at CHICO CLUB - 9:45 pm.

Live from the Chico Club - 6-4-11

6-4-11 - Last nite we played at Chico Club, what promised to be a fun show, with MEATWAGON.

This show SHOULD have been kick-ass... It should have been FUN. It WAS Kick Ass for a while --- I was having a good time, Darryl and Andy were having a good time andf IN ANTICIPATION of PLAYING, the whole BAR was having a good time. And I was SO looking forward to the show all last week.

Now Darryl and Andy to me are Gods, I love them guys, fuckin Andy is one of the asskickingnest guitar players in Sandy Yeggo... And I love Darryl he is my DEAR friend, he's been there for me in some jams, and we used to hang out and listen to Stranglers all the time. So there is some GOOD history with me and Meatwagon. Meatwagon has been around almost as long as Social Spit, and they deserve a measure of stability, like every other band out there. When it comes down to it, we do not do this for MONEY - And it is not a goddam HOBBY, this is our lives, we play cos it is in our BLOOD to play, if we do not play, we rot. And we like to PLAY LIVE. That's what we live for: We DO this cos we are LIVE MUSICIANS.

And it is not about the VENUE or whether there are 3 people or 300 there, a true MUSICIAN gives 110% for ALL shows, he gives his best efforts, whether the place is a DIVE or it is a PALACE.

This is where Keith the former drummer for Meatwagon and I differ - To him, a Venue is a place that owes him some kind of god damned LIVING. He never considers, that he must EARN that respect. The other bars, the Shakedown, Pure Platinum, The Whistle Stop, and other small places in town, Meatwagon had ALREADY EARNED that respect for themselves, Kieth had NOTHING to do with it. Keith neither EARNED nor WORKED for the RESPECT that Meatwagon gets in these joints, Darryl and Andy, that was THEIR Hard Work.

Now "new" meatwagulon drummer Kieth (He has played with Darryl and Andy before, and I had thought he actually adds to good vibe to the music, but I was wrong about that, because there is a personal undercurrent of major manipulation going on there with this guy) I knew him long ago and he's seemed always been straight-up with me until now, and he's always been nice to me until now, to my face that is, turns out he was talking crap about me to Darryl on the same night of the Chico, so he was one way to me to my face, and talking utter shit about me around my back, I just foudn that out todfay thank you, this is someone, I am really glad to not have to play with and share equipment again, And he burned his bridges with Social Spit as well... I really had nothing against him until today, I still don't, but this guy's credibility does not EXIST, he lives in some odd fantasy world where his shit does not stink - Only other people's shite.

Social Spit and Meatwagon go WAY back, to the time of the Palisades Rollerink shows, when Meatwagon was a new band. And so it was because of this past Fiendship and Darryl's friendship with Kit of Pharmacy that we asked Mestwagon if, for this show we could merge our PA systems, and they were cool with, Andy and Darryl helped us out. And it sounded great - I was in high excitement mode with the prospect of MeatWagon playing Chico with Pharmacy, Pharmacy being my other "Rock and Roll" band, and I don't care if anyone likes us or not, I do it cos *I* like doing it. So we were playing with a brand new Bass Player on the 4th of June, our set was going to be a quick set and then it was going to be all Meatwagon.

About 90% through our Pharma-Set, from my POV and out of the blue, Kieth just Walks up and UNPLUGS not just the Meatwagon parts of the PA, but OURS as well, this in the last chorus of our second-to-last song!! I was WHAT THE BLOODY GUCKING FUKKING HADES is going on here? Keith tried to tell me that the NEW OWNER OF THE CHICO CLUB - Disrespected his ASS, and KICKED HIM OUT of the BAR. Well, fine but you DO NOT start yanking crap when a BAND is playing, this is something you just do not do - Even if he really had been "kicked out" as he said, nobody is going to chase him out, and then when we break for the next song, he could have said, "Hey Guys, I've been KICKED OUT and I need to grab my stuff..." - No Problem see? But instead he turned this thing about "Disrespect" on US and Disrespected Pharmacy.

You wanna talk about god damn disrespect? It was done- to US, and to MEATWAGON. I spoke to him today and he was pleasant enough - Until I asked him why the fuck was he disrepectful of MY band if this thing was about "respect" and I swear, this guy lives in his mind, in his mind, everybody else caused the problems and he is blameless.

According to Kieth, the owner "Just started moving his drums around" - IN reality, the owner needed to get to a plug up on the ceiling, and he ASKED Kieth, if he could move something. I got that story from not only the Bar owner, but from about five people who saw Keith just START IN on the guy, So, this soneofa bitch Started the Drama.

After he trashed our set and ruined the whole show, he went up to Kit, the Singer for Pharmacy and told her she was a bitch that had "Started the whole thing".

So, when it comes to DISRESPECT, the word never enters in to what happened at the Chico that night. From the start, there was a pike up this guys arse, and he was bossing around my band, his band, people at the bar, he was just being a general jagoff. And I saw him today, I wanted to know, WHY the fuck was he so disrecpectful of MY band - He had the audacity to try to turn all this shit on ME. According to Darryl, in 1995 he did the exact same thing and was kicked out of Meatwagon.

At the time, both Andy and Darryl were totally bummed about this whole thing, and to top it off, they Did NOT get to play ONE LICK. And I had SO looked forward to watching Andy Choke his guitar neck and Darryl play monstrous bass riffs, I'm sure both of them had been looking forward to just PLAYING. This is just an example where something could, and should, have been very good, but it was basically ruined: For I don't know what damned reason. Respect? It was NOT ruined for RESPECT, that is for Goddamned sure.

I take a lot of bullshit from a lot of people, day in and day out, one thing I will NOT take is some Jagoff, who was 2 years old when I started playing my first live shows, trying to tell ME that MY band is unprofessional. Never Mind that not only did this guy absolutely start the whole chain of events that caused Meatwagon to not get to play, he tries to Blame the Club, he tries to Blame The Club Owner, He tried to Blame Kitten, my singer for Pharmacy, he tried to Blame OUR NEW BASS PLAYER, that night he was Blaming both Darryl AND Andy, and TODAY he tried to BLAME ME - And not ONE Acknowledgement of where the Blame OUGHT to have been put - ON HIMSELF.

I've been playing live shows since 1973, and I think I have developed a sense of what is important at a show, one thing is to never cause a rumpus. Never show up at a show with intent to jack it up. This guy was going to make a scene, no matter what, he was intent on that. He just DID NOT want to be there - And I asked him, today, if he didnt WANT to be there, why the hell didn't he cancel the show? Why didnt he tell Darryl and Andy he didn't want to do it? The fact is, he DIDN'T do that. And he had NO ANSWER for me on that question, instead he turned it around and tried to tell me how unprofessional I was to play with Pharmacy, and that Pharmacy "only plays the Chico Club" - Well I better tell the Rainbow in Hollywood that we never played there, and also Molly Malone's... And a bunch of other places we played last year. Point is, WE didn't cause a scene with the new bar owner, HE did, and he did it all by himself, Darryl did not help him, nor did Andy, or Kit, or my bass player - HE caused it. When he could have just PLAYED the show and he might have even had a good time, instead, he was intent on just starting something.

I had spent an hour setting up the PA and Kit told me I could take a break, cos nobody was gonna start until 10:00, regular time a first band goes on, NOBODY told me of any time limitations, I assumed Meatwagon would play as long as they WANTED after our 20 minute SET. When I got back into the Bar, Keith started bothering me about when the hell were we going to start? I told him, CHILL dude, as soon as I get my band up there. And so we went on, I just thought he was joking around. Well, this is not ON ME... He could have told me the DAY BEFORE< he would have liked to either play first, or start earlier, and I would have ACCOMODATED his ASS. But he DIDN'T.

Well it is a week later, And this guy has succeeded in parting Darryl and Andy, a partnership that has lasted way before this creep was in the band. I'm hoping that Andy realises - It is NOT OK what this guy did - And this guy is NOT OK.

On My 54th Birthday

Good Morning Wankers (or whatever fookin time it happens to be when you see this)!






This spinnin' blue ball has circled the gaseous blob we call the SUN (Or, SOL if ya wanna get all technical aboot it) - Fifty Four Times since 5:30am on May 20th, 1957... The year I was dredged out by forceps from me mum's womb. I don't remember any of that, probably cos being born is a traumatic experience and my particular birth was traumatic for my mum and my miserable self.

So first, I wanna thank any of you scrodsuckers who may have wished me a happy birthday over there in Faceschnook land... I'm still not there, but I'm telling Blogger.com to x/post this over to my page on that joint.

Tonight, Pharmacy is beginning a new chapter with our new bass player "Ramone Ramones", so now the lineup is as follows:

Kitten - Vocals and Meows
Jonny Spit - Guitars and Vocals and Catfights
Ramone Ramones - Bass (and hopefully, Vocals too).
Jayden Neckred - Drums

So Pharmacy now, has an even Wider AGE-GAP! Ramone Ramones, at 21, is the youngest new member, Jayden in his Mid 30's but still in good shape, Kitten late **'s (I'm not at liberty to state Kitten's Age, ya know, age of a woman? Carefully guarded Secret?) - And myself at 54, well it should not work but it DOES! So after we learn all of our old songs, it's NEW SONG TIME! Yay! And it's "Out with the Young and In with the Younger!"

And I posted a link to our song "Misery", which we recor-dead in Kitten's Garage last February, this is a new mix done on Social Spit Drummer Javier's Sweetwater Creation Machine system, which is an AviDigidesign Digirack 003 - Javy and I have been spending a lot of time getting aquianted with it, it's COOL! This is mostly what's been goin on for the last 3 weeks, plus Social Spit practice, getting ready for our May 21st Plum Loco show with Systematic Abuse, Looking WAY forward to doing that show!





So if you Fookers do not show up, next time I see ya it's my size 12 Steel Toed Doc Marten's to be applied to your buttocks!

You'll be a walkin, WANKIN, and HURTIN advertisement for Doc Martens Boots!!

Now for the trivia:

Most of you, don't know that my cat Ming, after guzzling a cup of hot Chocolate, then proceeded to immediately vomit it up all over my old iPhone... About a month, maybe 5 weeks ago. Her timing was impeccable: She did this this on the one-and-only day I ever took the phone out of the protective cover!

Well, thanks to my brother and my sister in law, they sent me her old original iPhone which was just like mine. When I tried to restore my backup to the new iPhone, it would not finish the activation process! Mainly because, I found out, to my dismay and the dismay of about every original iPhone 2G owner in the world: You ABSOLUTELY CANNOT activate the 2G iPhone through iTunes any longer! Because ATT no longer supports the network that those original now-paperweights used! I tried about 3 times on as many 'puters, activation would stall. I brought it to the ATT store, and they gave me a new Sim Card, and it still would not activate! So the ATT guy told me to bring it to "A to Z Mobile" over there in Pukeway Plaza... The idea was, once I got the phone Jailbroken, it would activate - And it DID! So I've been playing with "Cydia" which is the Linux program that was in there after it got Jailbroken - Some of the linux packages in there are scary!

My Brother bought me a brand NEW 4G iPhone for my birthday, so I'm very pleased about that! Many thanks to my Brother Chris and his wife Merri: By the way: Not going to go into details, but to all my friends who have a measure of Faith, PLEASE Pray for my sister-in-law! She just needs a break from some pain. Other than that, my work has picked up quite a bit, I'm very pleased about that. So all is well, "24th century dies".

Wellll, I feel like I wanna give out a few hearty "Fuck Yous" but I really don't got nobody to give a "Fuck You" out to, at least not anyone of importance... I'm sure that some people wanna tell ME to piss off or fuck off, so DO it and get it over with! Willya? Eh.

Look I'll make ya a deal: Just so none of you will "Think" or "Assume" or better yet "PREsume" that I told them to "Fuck Off"? - I'll make it easy for ya... If I am telling you to "Fuck Off", I'll say it using your NAME to your FACE - So there will be NO Question I did it, see? Haha! If I wanted to tell you to "Fook Off", you will KNOW I said it and you'll KNOW I meant +YOU+. But like I just sed: "There ain't nobody I'm telling FUK AUF BITCH* to rite now".

( * )= iacmusic.com/FUKAUFBEYITCH

(This in contrast to Cliff gettin up on a Mike at a recent "Meatwagon" show at the Shakedown, and saying that "Anyone not likeing Meatwagon's 'The Sreve Garris Story' can fook off!" - I don't THINK, and in fact I KNOW he did NOT direct that out to anyone in particular... But what the hey? He's been marked GUILTY of telling someone to "Fook Auf!". Tsk, too bad!)

Most of this shite is none of anyone's business none of mine either... None of youse guy's beezwax is any of MINE. Sometimes we like to Co-Miserate, which is usually and actually a means for people to stock up on Emotional Ammo that can be used against each other later. I never do that, used to do it all the time but I stopped, cos it is a bad thing to do. Comprende?. Mostly, my beefs don't have anything to do with anyone HERE. and anything else has to do with that other Blog I posted "About the keeping of PROMISES". I kept mine, but promises made to me were never fulfilled, so I feel I am owed that, even if it is "just a night with lingerie" - And I want to make it Clear: I was Promised a "Night with Lingerie" if I were able to do a special computer job for someone, and I VERY MUCH wanted to do that, the "reward" factor is not important, but I took the offer seriously, and I was dissapointed that it was not apparently a valid offer. I think the one who promised that to me needs a spanking of some sort, for making gratuitious promises without intent of going through with them. :/ But one of these days, they will understand why this thing they did was as bad as any thing I ever did, and there was only one really bad thing I ever did, which I tried to fix immediately.

The one piece of advice I will give to anyone: Is stay TRUE to yourself - Do NOT let anyone try to CHANGE you to fit rheir image of what they think you should be. FUCK that. Moreover, do not let anybody try to make you, into a carbon copy cut-out of their deepest desires... perfect to them, worthless to you.

There are more scenarios to which this applies and not just with me, I'm sure all of you have gone through things like this. What I posted here, that was my scenario and I WILL not go in to a bunch of Name Calling and Finger Pointing, because I am not really angry, I am merely sad and depressed about this. Somebody did not like that I was playing with Pharmacy, and tried to influence me to Quit - But when it comes right down to is, I am a MUSICIAN, and Musicians MUST play MUSIC, and I don't care if anyone likes it really, ultimately I'd like people to enjoy the music I write and play for them, but if they honestly do not like it, if they told that to me it would not hurt me. So that the person did not like that band, did not bother me too much, I wanted to share all of my music with this person, and I did not continue to try to involve them with Pharmacy after I learned that they did not like them.

If any friends of yours, or a any person you are in a close realtionship with, tries to get you to QUIT doing something you love doing, if that thing is not harmful, unless it is harmful and you NEED to quit that thing - It is not just music, it could be anything. It can be anything else you LOVE doing - And if someone is strenuously trying to get you to quit that thing, then It is probabaly better to drop that person, remove them from your life like "Fleas from a Dog", because you will NOT be happy if you try to kow-tow to another person's EVERY whim, and they will not be happy either, it just causes a Self-Starting-Co-Miseration-Situation, a "Misery-Loop" which is a type of "Pete" and "Re-Peat", where the misery was a response to exterior bad circumstances, now is a self perpetuationg load of Bollox making everybody and especially the person who will not capitulate and finally DROP the subject, miserable... Until they finally and inevitably LET GO of the external event that caused the misery in the first place.

So unless they wanna try to FIX what was Broke, don't wanna see 'em. But if they wanna work with me to fix what's broke I'll drop everything and do it.. Because I believe it is VERY much worth fixing... Otherwise, I just don't care anymore.

So other than that small "Sergio Aragonez" style drawn-out-Drama, everybody Happy Nowadays! Social Spit, Plum Loco El Cajon, about 10:30pm, May 21st! 1678 Greenfield Drive!

On Spirituality

I have my Spiritual beliefs, basically rooted in the basic Judeo-Christan vein. I'll have to think of a better word for it. The best way to explain it, is the Nicene Creed:

We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, begotten of the Father [the only-begotten; that is, of the essence of the Father, God of God], Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father;
By whom all things were made [both in heaven and on earth];
Who for us men, and for our salvation, came down and was incarnate and was made man;
He suffered, and the third day he rose again, ascended into heaven;
From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

And in the Holy Ghost.

[But those who say: 'There was a time when he was not;' and 'He was not before he was made;' and 'He was made out of nothing,' or 'He is of another substance' or 'essence,' or 'The Son of God is created,' or 'changeable,' or 'alterable'—they are condemned by the holy catholic and apostolic Church.]

I'll alter it a little to fit my personal Faith:

I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of all things visible and invisible, regardless of what Name you wish to put on Him/Her.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, begotten of the Father, because He is the only one who ever Claimed to be God given the form of the Human Body, Light of Light, True God of True God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father;
By whom all things were made on every Quantum of this Multiverse;
Who for us men, and for our salvation, came to our Quantum and was incarnate and was made man;
He suffered, and the third day he rose again, ascended into the higher Quantum we call Heaven;
From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

And in the Holy Spirit.

I respect the other religions and I do not worship their lower-case g gods, but I acknowledge the truth of those Faiths, that those entities, some of them benign and some not, that they actually have the power given to them by the Same Father I worship.

So mostly I try to respect the Faiths other people have, when I was a teenager, it was "All Christian or Nothing" and I would cram Bible down people's throats with a cramming stick. I still use the Bible for my own reference, but now I do not discard other writings, including the several thousand Tomes of Krishna, or all of the Hebrew canon including the Kaballa.

I try to keep all of these things on a level playing field, but mostly, people searching for God usually have several things in common, their Worship follows the same format. God is not a God of strict formats, he can be Worshipped in all kinds of ways, whereas I originally thought I had to do it only one way. But in my investigations into other worship practices, we find that there are some forms that are common, I believe that this happens naturally, no one religion is copying the forms of another, intimate Worship especially in the form of Music, if you listen to recordings you will find that what you think is Christian Worship, may be another Faith.

The great Christian Apologist CS Lewis makes a statement in his last Narnia book "The Last Battle" where a person who thought they were Worshipping one god in that book, was so sincere in his Faith that Aslan[God] accounted this person's worship of that god as Worship of Him. Even in the earlier books, Aslan, the Christ figure, states "I have other names on other worlds". This can be seen as Lewis embracing the idea of Multiple Universes, some of which exist in the same space as ours. Lewis created a fictional means for people from this world to visit those worlds - "The Wood Between the Worlds" in "The Magician's Nephew". Other Cosmologists like Tipler and Hawking have only recently come up with these ideas, but as you see Lewis had some inkling of these ideas, even though they had not been formulated by the cosmologists of his day.

But there are other commonalities between people of different Faiths: And I have to make a side-note here, if a Faith does NOT have common elements to other Faiths, for instance- if a basic tenet of a faith is the word "Infidel" - Meaning, that people of other Faiths are not acceptable - Then the word APOSTATE can be applied to that Religion. This is the difference between a true FAITH and a "Religion" - A Religion is basically a set of rules, but if those rules exclude other religions, then it is an Apostate Religion. But Normally, people of different Faiths can get along quite well with each other, if they are TRUE Faiths.

A person on a spiritual quest just does not get angry at every given moment, not including regular anger which is normal, and which is desigined to Dissipate after being expressed - A person on a Spiritual Quest, does not get Angry and KEEP ON Getting angry about the same issue - Meaning, they do not "Stew on it" - Normal Anger is LET GO and the issue surrounding that anger is normally NEVER MENTIONED AGAIN, not after being dealt with ONCE. If that person KEEPS BRINGING IT Up, the issue being worse and worse each time they bring it up, then they are not allowing that anger to be released and "LET GO". A person on a spiritual quest is NOT easily irritated. Spirituality is not the seeking of spiritual experiences, true spirituality means you put yourself OUT. It means, that your +self+ is not the most important thing in your life, it means that your preferences and comforts are to be set to one side, this is the only way it works. Spirituality and Selfishness do not combine, Spirituality and SelfLESSness is the basic rule. Spirituality means inviting personal DISCOMFORT into your well-ordered existence. It does not mean you PAY MONEY to go to religious conferences, bible studies, kurton meetings, AA Groups, Amazon Tribal Rituals or even Yoga sessions or other alternate forms of meditation, just for the exhilaration of those experiences, although it is not wrong to search out those experiences... But Spirituality is more than religious *Experiences*, Spirituality requires that you absolutely DO NOT insist on your own way all the time, it means that sometimes, you have to do something the way SOMEONE ELSE wants to do it. Eh? A Spiritually motivated person has attributes that are the same as another persons attributes, regardless of which Faith they embrace. The Bible calls this the Fruit of the Spirit, which is called in Hebrews 11 the "Evidence of Things Not Seen".

To make special effort to SEEK OUT spiritual experiences in the form of these paid conferences, is a form of Lack of Faith. It is not wrong to GO to these things, but it is wrong for that to be the only source of Spiritual Input. Because a true epiphany can happen while shopping, or getting gas, it can happen when you are alone, or if you are in a crowded room of people. And, these esperinces are for the most part UNEXPECTED. You just never know when the hammer will fall down and then you are speaking in toungues or maybe even seeing a vision.

Of all the gifts, toungues is probably the cheapest and most common gift, and even that can fall on you at any time. It says in 1 Corinthians 14, if a person really wants to have a gift, then to ask for Prophecy, which is the ability to speak out the Word of God, which usually results in something coming into being, and not about seeing the future. A Prophet Calls Forth the Future, makes it happen, does not actually FORSEE it. So I'd rather have that than any other gift, and it is wholly uncontrollable, it happens when it happens.

You can't just go out and "Buy" the gift of Prophecy, there was this magician in the book of Acts, who tried to BUY the gift of healing from Peter, and that guy got a pretty good rebuking for asking. Because Faith is, and this is the best part of Faith: FREE. Faith does have it's costs and consequences, but Money os not one of the costs of Faith. Any person running around from conference to seminar to conference, is a Fake.

But I am not trying to state that *my* Spiritual Status is perfect - Far From it - The Spiritual Quest is a search for perfection, we never achieve it on the planet Earth, only when we stand in the presence of God will we achieve that state, But on Earth, we try to do simply the best we can witt eh limited tools we got..

I know a person, who has a fairly defined gift of Healing, but due to some of the things I mention above, they can impart that gift, sometimes, but usually only when they WANT to, but they cannot accept it for themselves. I think this is the source of their constant ANGER. If they could let that go, they would be a lot more effective. A healer absolutely has the ability to impart Healing to themselves. But they never look for this ability, they tru to buy it for themselves, and I never saw any improvement... Unless I was just being told lies abd excuses: Because I've been around healings for over 12 years now, and I've seen some incredible recoveries and drastic changes. But this person, can cause a drastic healing in someone else, but their state never changes. So, if in fact they had been given healing, then the infirmity which was always given to me as an excuse, if n fact it had been dealt with, the person continued to say they HAD this infirmity asa a "way out" - In other words, as a Lie.

Any person can learn the language of religion and use all the coined phrases used by people pf true Faith which they use as Shorthand for each other, but if they are not living these things they say inside themselves day by day, minute by minute, then they are FAKE. Which is harsh, but this is not me saying it, that's how it is - I didn't just make up these rules, they existed before I was born.

A person on a spiritual quest, pretty much does not INSULT their friends. Maybe they insult other people, but to do crap to a FRIEND: To say mean crap to a FRIEND and especially a person who has shared intimacy with them: is not evidence of any kind of spirtuality... Not of the good kind, there is dark spirituality, but I have NO interest in any of that. And if anyone saying they have Faith goes after dark crap, that's not Faith.

CS Lewis also said, "The two mistakes people make about devils is first, to NOT believe in them, second, to give them ANY more attention then they deserve." And this is my basic philosophy as well, when it comes to devilsor any other evil entity fron ANY Faith, I'm not interested.

Which brings me to my favourite story about Martin Luther:

Upon being awoken at night by the devil, the great Martin Luther saw who it was and said "Oh, it's just YOU" - And proceeded to go back to sleep.

On Promises and the Keeping Thereof

I've been diddling with this Blog for the last couple of weeks, just have to add a few more things to it. First off, I am NOT using my Facebook account at the moment, not for the last month or so - I have not read anything in my inbox, I'm just not there. I don't think any of you lunkheads and jagoffs have gotten it - I HAVE NOT SPENT ONE MINUTE ON MY FACEBOOK PROFILE PAGE IN OVER A MONTH. Ergo I HAVE NOT READ anything that anybody has posted there, cos it ain't fuckin time for me to listen to excuses and "reasons" and rationalisations anymore, it's time to me to speak, and for certain people to listen without any FUCKING retorts - This goes out to one in particular, I WILL not listen to any more lame excuses ever again- Meaning I will not HEAR them vocally and I will not READ them. I do not know any of the "Sergio Aragones" Drawn-Out FacePoop Dramas that are going on at this time. I was using FB for communication, but it was turning into something else... So I'm out of there, I don't know if anyone's noticed I'm not there, it's just too much crap to deal with at the moment, I got the Social Spit website and my one email address and that's it for the moment.. So if you try to contact me on Facebook, I will not see it. Look for me, maybe in a year. So if you wanna email me, do it from the CONTACT link on the [url]http://socialspit.com[/url] website, I left that open for Emergencies and Business, if you got business I am interested but I don't wanna hear any gossip. Also I was told that what I posted here was "innaccurate" or one sided. Innaccurate, no, one sided yes, cos it's MY TURN and once people understand that "what they want is the exact and ONLY way something will go" is actually ABSOLUTELY NOT the way a thing should go, then bombs will stop dropping in the world. But until then, certain people need to understand that they can't eel and skink and lie and manipulate themselves out of promises and commitments- And get away with it scott free.

People who know me, know this about me: I do not ever say I am going to do something, and not do it... If it takes me a year, I'll accomplish what I've said I am going to do. If I do not think I can do the thing, I never commit to do it. If it is within my power to do a thing and I have promised to do it, even if I do not want to do the thing later, I am honour and duty BOUND to fulfill my verbal and written promises. And the least I can expect is that the people I deal with, have the same set of standards when it comes to giving their word, that's all I ask. Because My Word is the only valid coin I can offer.

So, I know there are probably more than a few of you that have directly benefited from me in this way: I Promised something, and I DELIVERED it. Usually this is in the form of Fixing a computer, because this is my one area of extreme expertise. There are quite a few of you that have directly benefited from me this way- And everything I said I was able to do, I DID. Including finding some very hard to find music for someone - I SAID I would do it and I DID do it.

On the other hand, I was in a close relationship over the last 7 or so months, and this person, I don't know what they wanted: An Obligation was formed, I carried out MY part of it, but what was supposed to be reciprocal, ended up just being me using up my energy on someone who was not interested in anything but what accommodated THEM. So I'm FUCKIN out of Facebook for a while, and it's gonna be a very long time before I trust ANYone ever again.

I hafta add this little thing - I appreciate gifts, I mean when people just do things for me, I cannot ever repay any of that, I want to, sometimes I can. But what happened last winter, someone used up resources on me, someone like me, in the same fiscal and medical situation as I was - if I would have known then what I do now about them I WOULD NOT have accepted any of it. This "generosity" was used against me later by the same person. If you give, you give without reservation, and you do NOT hold the person you did things for accountable back to you. So I was done some BIG favours, and in a moment of Vino, the person told me that they very much resented me because they used those resources up on me and moreover, I took their gift. The word "WRONG" is splattered all over that event, if I give, I give, and that's that - and I do give all the time, I always do what I can, what I am able to do. I never expect anything, and I'll make it clear I'm just doing it, mostly because I enjoy the feeling of doing something for someone. "It is more blessed to give that to recieve" - Feh! Whoever made that up did not have a clue, because recieving is as important:

Lu 6:38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

And this one is Cake:

2Co 9:6 ¶ But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully.
2Co 9:7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.
2Co 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:

And so I found out that I had been given a gift with a grudge.

This is how I spent about 200 man hours on a project for the same person, I did it cos I liked doing it, because I liked the person I was doing it for, maybe because I thought I loved them and I thought those feelings were reciprocated. I never wanted anything for it, but I did get a reward: I was promised a night with Lingerie, instead I got a swift kick in the ass. I never did the work cos I WANTED that night with Lingerie, but it would have been nice if the person who Promised that to me, stuck with the bargain. But it was easier for them to just kick me in the balls, so fuck it, fuck me, I'm done. Maybe Marylin Monroe had it right:

I'm through with love
I'll never fall again
Said adieu to love
Don't ever call again
For I must love you or no one
And so I'm through with love

I've locked my heart
I'll keep my feelings there
I've stocked my heart
with icy, frigid air
And I mean to care for no one
Because I'm through with love

Why did you lead me
To think you could care?
You didn't need me
For you had your share
of slaves around you
To hound you and swear
with deep emotion and devotion to you

Goodbye to spring and all it meant to me
It can never bring the thing that used to be
For I must have you or no one
And so I'm through with love

I'm through with love

Baby I'm through with love

I guess the general rule, to be a popular person, you have to make several verbal commitments a day to do various things, and flake/RENEG on every single one of them. So maybe I'll start doing that too. But no, this is not in my nature. So it is basically, I SAID I was out of Facebook for a while, and I'm TOTALLY out of it, but I'm not invisible, I got this stupid Blog.

ABOUT GOSSIP, SLANDER, and the STIRRING of FECAL MATTER

GOSSIP - It COMES AT YOU WHEN YOU ARE NOT LOOKING.

From WHERE? Sometimes, from your GOOD FRIENDS- But we can't fault them, really. See, we EXPECT this crap to come from people who hate your guts and who you hate back... but when it comes from your GOOD friends by way of a SHIT STIRRER: Suddenly YOU HAVE BEEN BRANDED: You have been Arrested, Tried, and CONVICTED with NO APPEAL and NO CHANCE for SELF DEFENCE.

It is the tendency of people, who instead of talking to each other, listen to, AND BELIEVE the Rhetoric which emits like gaseous, Bulbous, FARTS and TUMOURS from the putrid, STINKING Swear-holes of the likes of Rush Limbergerbaugh, may he DIE soon.

And there is a class of people, USUALLY Republicans, and/or TEA PARTIERS... who take ADVANTAGE of this Weakness in people... And we dub these Te-Farters SHIT-STIRRERS. To Quote "PETAH" and the TEST TUBE BABIES:

When there's trouble in the air, I'm the bloke
who's always there. When loving couples swear and
curse, I am there to make it worse. In the shit,
I'll drop you right in it, I'm shitstirrer If you
have two-timed your girl, straight to her I'll go
and tell. And even if your love is true, I'll
still tell you've got two. If you're off work and
tell then why, I'll tell your boss it's all a lie.
And if you say things behind his back, I'll grass
you up so you'll get the sack.

Now, the FRIEND will think that they are doing you some kind of FAVOUR by believing and ACTING on the SHIT which is STIRRED, NOT SHAKEN, then SLUNG at you. In most cases, the SHIT STIRRER spouts a "Half Truth" - And the FRIEND takes action or attitude according to the LEVEL of SHIT which has been slung. If the friend is a GOOD friend then they will search for an EXPLANATION and will accept the explanation. But Most people swallow these turds whole and regurgitate them on cue when it will do the MOST Damn-age.

How do you tell if you are the VykTym of Stirred SHIT? It is like this: SUDDENLY and VISCOUSLY your friends are inexplicably HOSTILE.

May All SHIT STIRRERS be themselves stirred into huge vats of SHIT!

"You NO GOOD SONUVA BITCH, you're on my SHIT LIST!"

What should we do? Well first off, when you are approached by a person with "JUICY NEWS" about "So and So" - You tell them to FUCK OFF. What if the SHITSTIRRER Blurts it out anyway?

Well, that's what you got to decide: What are you gonna do with little pieces of Info-SHIT. Gonna make an ISSUE about it? Gonna use it to cause all kinds and levels of GRIEF? Gonna use it in a situation where everybody is having a SWELL time, to DAMPEN the situation? Gonna use it to BRING SOMEONE DOWN?

Moreover, are you gonna use it to BREAK A PROMISE to someone? Are you gonna DO THAT? You heard some SHIT about me, so now you are gonna break a SOLEMN VOW you made to me because of STIRRED SHIT? PLEASE do NOT TELL ME you are GONNA DO THAT.

Conservatism - The Inability to detect humour?

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/04/27/colbert-study-conservativ_n_191899.html


And now we have scientific proof that conservatives have absolutely no sense of humour, vitreous or otherwise.

Regarding Conservatism and Conservatives, we do not believe Conservatives are simply "stupid"

It is not a bad thing to be conservative- But to be a conservative and to be in a position to make policy, is bad news, and extremely ill-advised. Especially if the conservative official have no ability to detect sarcasm and ironic humour.

So how does that affect their ability to express professional opinions on the issues which come up in legislation, issues which may or may not become law, affecting everybody?

It does not look good.

Most conservatives will voice renunciations simply because "It is our policy to do so" and they will not bother to look into things themselves.

For instance, Harry Potter. Christian Conservatives renounced Harry Potter Author and Books as Satanic and Demonic ilk, "Teaching Children to cast magic spells" - and if we question some of the most outspouted spouters, if they had ever read any of the work? No. So, regardless of actual content of the Harry Potter books, the Conservatives immediately pronounced sentence on the book and author JK Rowling.

The same thing happened with Scorsese's "The Last Temptation of Christ" -

And then again for "The Davinci Code"

That there may be issues in these works, that are probably offensive to said conservatives, is not the point, but rather, that they will do no self-investigation. And they will not do so in mortal fear that a person who does not share their conservative opinions will possibly talk them into changing their minds, and God Forbid, that happen!

In huge rallies where 70,000 or more people are rabble roused and charged to boycott the books and films I mentioned - If we ask any random member of said lynch mob, "Did you ever read/see this material" - The answer is emphatically NO- With no desire to see if even the charges are true or not.

Now, how does this reflect on our current government? The conservatives which hold elected offices have stated plainly, per Bobbly Jindal's "Official Republican Response" to the early "Obama National Pep Talk", that "The Republican Party Absolutely Will Not Help the Current Administration in Any Form"

Jindal meant collectively, and this is how all conservative groups act, they act as a Mob - And as a Mob. they can be stirred into action by the tirades of their most outspouted leaders- Like the dangerous Rush Limbaugh.

And so we have the current dilemma - The Republican party is mired in their conservatism and pledged to do absolutely nothing to help the problems, problems which they are mostly responsible for in 8 years of bad decision making.

My challenge is for individual members of that party, to think about why they should be following any of Limberger's advice, or Jindal's advice, or anyone in government that says, "everything will be fine if we do not spend any money"

Unfortunately, the mess we are in, requires not bailout, but development of whole new technologies, and that costs money. If the most outspouting of these dérailleurs would stop spouting and start thinking about what they can do personally to improve our status, then these new technologies can be put into use rapidly instead of being shouted down by every would-be Limbaugh on our sidewalks standing on soapboxes yelling "socialism! socialism!"

I would prefer a little socialism to even the appearance of National Socialism.

And as you know, the Republican Pundits are branding these people who want the changes, "Commies" while the Democrat Pundits (are there any? I thought all pundits are right wing) are calling the republicans "Nazis"

Well, if it comes to name calling,"Nyah - the name I called you is a worse name than the one you called me! Nyah Nyah PhPhPhPh!"

Updated 8-30-2009 9:00am

Message to the person who created the website 'Why won't G-d heal Amputees?'

I don't know what the purpose of asking:

"Why won't G-d heal Amputees"

Is it like asking: "Can G-d make a rock so Big that he can't move it?" I used to try to use that flawed argument when I was a kid to try to prove there was no G-d. But when you consider it, the question "Can G-d make a rock so big that He Can't move it" is pretty much, a really STUPID question.

G-d is not a Man, G-d does not think the way you and I think. If G-d follows the biblical model of Himself, G-d would not bother responding to any question concerning rocks even if the Angel Gabriel himself would ask, it is just a dumb question.

On the other hand though the question "Why won't G-d Heal Amputees" -  appears to be a good question, it is absolute nonsense. Mostly because, for one, in the entire Bible, I do not think there is one mention of any regrown limbs ANYWHERE in the Bible - YOU SHOW IT TO ME.

The person who asked the question "WWGHA"- who made this website, and who has started all this Floofpoog and fartflurry speculating why G-d won't heal amputees- I think he asked in his mind what he thought was a valid question, but when you consider the question, it is just another STUPID question.
I want to explain why, right here and now, and I hope there are many people who see my reasoning. I am but a humble Christian who used the be an humble Atheist, and my Faith is pretty broad, cos I came to realise long ago that since G-d is NOT a man, and except for those 33 years He put on the clothing of Mortal Flesh and lived loved and died like one of us, he does not reason as one of us nor speak as one of us. And so we can NOT assume that our concerns are really anything of galactic importance. Surely our concerns seem important to us, but when it comes to the question of "Should my wife wear the Red Dress or the Green Dress" - G-d himself is more concerned about Galaxy M-361 colliding with cluster X-g47sk and how many life-bearing planets will be destroyed and should He sent Christs to each of Those Planets? I'm just using that as an example of something that G-d might be more concerned about that Mr. John Human praying to have his leg regrown.

So I want to first pose the verification question: When we talk about Healing: Are we talking about Healing a disease? I know first hand God heals diseases, and I can document this, and I know several hundred people who are walking around who were under death sentences of Cancer and other hideous diseases.

Disease is not G-d's intended state for man. Our bodies are supposed to Automatically deal with the daily things that we come across as far as germs and other foreign materials go. Sometimes, the foreign material is just too foreign, and our immune systems cannot deal with it, and so we get ill. But normally, these illnesses are "Not unto death" and we recover. However, since G-d Himself inspired the practice of Medicine, Christ being the most documented doctor of all: It is Proper for me, for you, for anyone to ask G-d for healing when be become ill with one of these diseases, and when Anybody recovers due to the help of a licenced medical practitioner, we can attribute that healing to G-D.

Let us say, it is 1864 and a soldier in the Civil War just got a ball of lead deep in his leg and he is on a filthy battlefield and there are many other men and their blood and also, insects, germs of many kinds (which we did not know about in 1864) - and the "doctor" drops his surgical instrument on the ground and picks it up and wipes it with poop covered unwashed hands and uses the tool to remove the bullet.

And in a day or so, the leg becomes infected, and none of the potions that the doctor uses to stop the infection helps, especially since he got them from a patent medicine man who was barking on a St Louis Streetcorner. And the infected area becomes Green. And starts smelling like rotten meat. And then the flies come, and start laying eggs in the unhealed, dripping, oozing, festering, , green, wound. Would you say that the Doctor performed a valid healing operation?

And so the man feels his blood being poisoned and prays for healing and a different doctor comes, with whiskey, lye, clean towels and a sharp, clean and new surgical tool, and he removes the infected part of the leg, and ties off all the blood vessels, and sews the stump up real good.

Within a week the would heals and with the help of a wooden leg, the man can move around, and he does not develope pneumonia or any other disease.. And he recovers.

So: Which was the healing? The first operation where the sawbones actually, due to his unclean methods, Caused the infection to spread? Or the second operation, where the doctor came and due to good practice, used a procedure that actually saved the man's life?

Which one the "Miracle"

When we ask G-d to Heal Stumps are we in fact asking for a miracle? Why would we ask G-d to do something like that? Would you not say that any man who asks for the regeneration of amputated material a little... Ah, Er, PRESUMPTUOUS?

God performs the healing of Amputees through the procedure of Amputation. In these days, we see much less need for amputation then even 10 years ago... With surgical procedure as developed as it is, and with proper care, doctors have even sewn severed limbs back onto the person who has had them wrongfully removed: See the case of a man named Bobbitt: And we ask, did NOT G-d heal Bobbitt? I would say He did... Bobbitt even showed us how well G-d "performed" that miracle.

But the miracle was really in good doctoring skills.

So: If any man has to have a foot removed, or a leg or arm, we can correctly state that G-d DID heal these men... Because the Amputation is in fact The Healing.

Now... Why would ANY Christian pray to have limbs regrown. In 1992 I had to have a lot of teeth removed, and I suffer for that daily now with TMJ and other problems. Should I ASK G-D to REGROW MY TEETH? Why should I, when it was MY FAULT that I lost them, and even if it was not my fault, if it was not my fault and my teeth were wrongfully knocked out, G-d would provide that the person responsible for amputating my teeth would provide me with a 90,000 thousand dollar Implant job.

Asking to be Healed from Aids, or the Flu, or A Cold, or Cancer, is one thing, BELIEVING that G-d will heal those things is another.

It is the belief and FAITH in G-d that causes Him to Heal Cancer, Hepatitis, Aids. NOT just the Asking.

It even states in James, when we ask G-d for anything... Let us ask in Faith and without wavering... because the man who Doubt's that G-d can do these things, will not receive anything from Him, a doubleminded man is unstable in all his ways.

James 1

2 ¶ My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

Note that the person is asking for Wisdom... I assume that when James says that the person who asks from G-d, anything, not simply wisdom, if a person were to ask for Healing, we MUST assume, and not presume.

Assumption: G-d will provide Wisdom and Healing for all men who ask with for it with FAITH

Presumption: That we can ask God for something we do not deserve, and He will Provide it: If we ask with a level of Faith that is non-existent.

Moreover, it is not in the asking of G-d for boons, but in the Trust in G-d that He will provide all we need while we are on this planet, that is the true measure of Christianity.

Christ had a lot to say about people who stood on streetcorners (or in front of TV cameras) and prayed outloud. As in, he hated it, and condemned such people.

I hope I have given the person who first asked "Why won't G-d heal Amputees" a real good picture of why this is the most Non-Valid question anyone can ask about G-d: Because G-d HAS already healed the amputee... BY the process of amputation.

Sure we can ask Him to preform a Miracle... And even if we ask in a compleatly non-selfish way and for totally unselfish purposes for my teeth to magically and miraculously be grown back- It is still up to G-d to perform such a Miracle: And it is not too silly to believe that G-d is still around and performing miracles, only that He will do a miracle just to "prove" that He is still around.

People get Miracles mixed up with Healing. Two different things.

How to deal with Vista

How to you handle the biggest pile of horse crap ever devised? Two years they developed this piece of shit, kind of sounded like they rushed it.

Well, first off, NEW COMPUTERS. There are some really swell deals out there: some 500 dollar laptops. Be careful that you do not get a Celeron. Now companies like Dell offer Windows XP as an alternative: But not all computer makers are doing this.

Windows Vista requires huge amounts of processor power and ram and even a 256MB Video Card is not enough to propel this overbloated piece of shit.

They say that Vista Home Basic can run on 512 MB Ram. And maybe I can install MacOSX Tiger onto an LC-II. And maybe my cat will sprout wings and chase bats.

I have installed Vista UE into a system with 2 GB of 400 MHz Ram, FSB is 800 MHz, 256 MB Agp card. Vista does not like AGP, it bottlenecks the whole system.

The entire explorer subsystem, resembles the Finder in MACOS now. It actually acts like the MACOS Finder. With one exception, the MACOS Finder, Finds things, but the new Microsoft Search, which is designed to include Windows new bullshit "Live" - Simply will not locate any file typed on the search bar.

More about this "Windows Live" thing bothers me. I have already removed Windows Live Desktop, which is similar to the Gadgets in MACOS. When activated, it blanks out the rest of the OS. Apparently, the intention of Microsoft is to eventually run ALL programs "Live" - And the home PC will be nothing but an Appliance, depending on 1) Internet connectivity and 2) Status of MS Live Servers for reliability and functionality.

Well I say, No- I do not wish to run an Appliance. I wish to have the programs I need residing on my computer and I want full access to my File System. And in Vista, even the EVENT VIEWER depends on a whole new service and so the logs cannot be viewed by the same conventional means that the Windows XP event logs can be viewed (As Comma Separate Values).

It has been since March? That this utter piece of trash has been foisted on us. The price of CPUS and RAM and Hard Drives have not gone down that much. Hardware that was acceptable has now been made obsolete. And how long until I have to have a 1 Terabyte HD just to run my OS?

I think not- And I thank groups like "Extreem" who released the Vista Extreem Edition, which has stripped all garbage out of Vista and leaves us with a bare OS. I also thank Paradox and others for their clever cracks... My Vista is STILL running, and is still activated and genuine.

If a Service lack is forthcoming, it ought to be a service pack that removes unwanted bloat from the OS.

The shit of it is, I would be happy to use vista, even BUY it, it it were smaller, cheaper, if Ultimate Edition did not cost 400 bucks, if it ran on my Pentium III's and IVs and Athlon K7's and K8's.

So, I openly encourage anyone who gets hold of Vista and wants to load it, here is what you do:

Go to PirateBay and download any version of the Vista DVD- They are all the same. Then download any of seven or eight activation and WGA cracks that are available. The best cracks are the ones that use the Vista WGA system on itself.

Until Microsoft makes reasonable operating Systems, they will get NO money from me.

I'll pay full retail price for either XP MCE 2005 or XP Pro SP2. I encourage people to do so, I think XP is a fine OS, despite some of the problems I have had with it. I have used it from the start, and the longest I had an XP installation stay good was about a year and a half, before I got infected with a virus that deleted system files.

But I will spend NO money on Vista. I will go out of my way to delete it, until people understand just how bad it is on so many levels.

How do you deal with Vista?

Install it. When asked which version you are installing, choose Ultimate Edition. enter a BLANK for a product ID. The OS will install and you will have 30 days trial.

First thing you do is deal with all of the nagging. Turn OFF User Account Control. Turn off SECURITY ALERTS, this you have to do in the control panel somewhere, it seems to me the location changes each time I do it. SHUT OFF the Security Center Service: By RIGHT CLICKING on My Computer, choose MANAGE, and go to the Services, this is just like doing it in XP, disable it, do not disable it until you have shut off Security Alerts.

The main problem with XP, and with Vista, are that these so-called security features are turned ON by default. What Microsoft ought to do is create a splash screen at first boot so that the user can choose if he wants these things enabled. There ought also to be a security control panel that allows full access to all of these functions from one spot.

You can either use the 30 days trial and download all of the updates you want... Avoid all Security updates. Never allow Automatic Updates, do it manually, and check each update download, and you can actually hide the ones you do not wish to install.

About Neutrality in "Internet Conflicts"

Someone told me that they were Nuetral in regard to certain "Internet Conflicts" - Well I say HORSE SHIT:

This was my response to the person.

"You will be forced to take a side, OR, one will be assigned to you by shitheads. Most likely, someone will start spouting that you are on one side or other, and then all the SHIT will start. Fucking shitheads. And in the middle of it:

XX is stirring the SHIT-POT with the Ladel he got from Witch Hazel with the goddamn large WART on her nose. And he is muttering: "Fart-Bubble, Fart-Bubble, Toil, and Trouble" while using eye of new, toe of tree frog, nose of fart-smeller, finger of nose-picker, and ear of gossip-reporter" Get it?"

XX being "Those we do not Speak Of" - The moment it's user name is used, even whispered, it shows up and destroys the BBS.

The INTEGRITY of the home computer builder

I am over here working on a new 'puter...

It is a Sempron 2200+ xp, Foxconn KM400 Motherboard, 256 MB Samsung 333 MHz DDR-ram - 2 Seagate 40 gig Fartdrives, 2 MSI 52x32x52 Burners, set up as a dual burner.

This is to replace my Pentium-III 1-Gigger w/ 512 Ram that I had to disassemble and GIVE to a client.

This 'puter was MADE for another client, but it had a different BOX, and the Hard Drive went bad: The woman was just NOT PATIENT enough for me to take care of it, and FIX the damn thing, cos I Always make a VERBAL warranty with who I work with... That if something goes bad within a year, then I will help them fix it for NOTHING.

What FUKKIN people do NOT understand is that parts cost MUNNY, even USED parts.
A USED stick of SAMSUNG 256 MB 333 Hz DDR Ram I have seen prices at about 49 Dollars on the average.

A NEW stick of GOOD ram like that is fookin 75 to 80 FUKKIN BUCKS.

So: I go out and BUY this woman the shit to FIX the computer I made her: And she, instead of WAITING, went out and BOUGHT a PIECE of CRAP Gateway Fuck-Computer.

Now THIS Fucked-Duck Gateway? Has the SAME Shit, it even has the same Processor- Except that it is a 2800 + XP - 2 Gig processor. 256 MB of DDR Ram, probably FLOOR SWEEPING Ram- REAL BAD RAM- It clocks up to 333 but MY ARSE if this fuck puke is running at 333 MHz. - Feels like it is running at PC133, and even PC133 feels FUCKIN FASTER this Shit-pile piece of FUCK.

This is the Fookin SLOWEST PIECE of SHIT FUCKED COMPUTER I have ever seen in my LIFE.

And, SHE DID NOT LEARN FROM AN EARLIER MISTAKE WHEN SHE BOUGHT A PIECE OF FUCK "MEDION" COMPUTER FROM COSTCO - THAT CRASHED IRREPARABLY IN LESS THAT A FUKKIN YEAR -

And when she took it IN to get the warranty, they FUCKS said "Oh, this Floppy Dick Drive has been CHANGED- We cannot HONOR your warranty"

FUKKIN BULLPOO! The fucking piece of crap that she brought in for Warranty Replacement had the SAME goddam parts as when she bought the thing new. It was a REAL SHITTY Fukkin 'puter. The woman's DAUGHTER somehow, got it to work, by installing the VGA Safe Driver- I don't know how that works: It is a driver that activates when the VGA driver for a machine FAILS. And THIS thing had an N-Vidia video Fartcard.

Fucking cocksucking cocksuckers! Motherfucking PIGS.

And this woman DID not learn from that- and goes out and gets an even WORSE computer.

So, we'll see whose computer works longer, this one, MINE!!! Or, the Duckfucking Piece of SHIT that she fucking WENT AROUND MY BACK and BOUGHT- RENEGING on our VERBAL CONTRACT.

Cos: I am gonna KEEP it although she PAID for it. She ain't gonna get it back - She BROKE the GODDAM contract with ME- Buy just ignoring the FUCKIN TERMS of the deal and going AROUND my back. NOBODY fucking questions the Dignity and QUALITY of MY WORK - When I MAKE A SYSTEM$302 Dollars. All the PARTS are warranted, and with the Receipts, which I supply, if ANYTHING goes bad before it's time, it gets REPLACED. ALSO: I give a One-Year warranty- So they get my services on the machine for a year.... Except for Viruses: I Charge 50 dollars for virus removal, and if we have MEGA virus removal, then I charge WAY more.

NOTHING pisses me off MORE than someone Dissing my Business INTEGRITY.

I make GOOD PRODUCT, and I PERSONALLY STAND BEHIND IT.
DUCKFUCKERS! SHITEATERS!

I AM so GODDAMN pissed RIGHT NOW, I do NOT know WHAT I am gonna do WHEN I see this Woman again.

What irks me to the nth degree, is that I have NO problems with ANY of the rest of the family that RUN these auto shops: They own THREE shops, two down HERE by where I live and another down South from where I live.

Now: I COULD GIVE the woman the computer for the shop down in the South location, which DESPERATELY NEEDS a new machine, However: I HAVE ALREADY OFFERED THIS AS A SOLUTION AND SHE REJECTED IT OUT OF HAND.

"But I have to have NEW computers that look good"

So, I guess she will NOT be seeing THIS computer.

What I will do: is show it to the daughter that owns the Muffler shop, let her drool over it, she just bought a REAL FINE Sony Vaio. This woman KNOWS how to BUY good systems:

If you are going to buy GOOD systems - Then you fuggin Fyookin BUY good systems.


FUCKING DUCKFUCKERS

The Posting of the IP addy/The X-Posting of the poopooPost and other stories

First, there was the POSTING of the IP addies. Let us look at this sub-culture first though, and the "rules" of said Sub-Culture. An IP Addy is pretty much a DIRECT map to your house... If you are NOT protected... Or, if you afre NOT nehind a FIREWALL, or, if you ar NOT posting from an ANONYMISER.

IP ADDRESSES, that is, Internet Protocol Addresses, are what appear to be three sets of NUMBERS that identify YOU on a Block, or, RANGE of numbers.

Here is a IP ranges: 68.0.0.0 to 68.255.255.255

Mostly it was a Misunderstanding. A bunch of us... Uh, about a Thousand of us, really: We post on about 3 to 7 EZ-Boards. http://Artistarea.com: A URL owned by Master Zap, actually, was first assigned to ther board located at http://realitybb.com Master Zap got angry at the owner of http://realitybb.com and assigned HIS "ArtistArea.com DOMAIN to what is not http://moosiks.com - But now, the owners of Moosiks, have retired, and so, http://moosiks.com has become ACID RAIN... Which is what it was ORIGINALLY. So: MY board is called Level 1 and it is part of a set of forums called The 13th Floor, and is HERE (LEVEL 1)

So, although a bunch of changes have been assigned to these places:

"Though names have changed each face retains the masque it wore" - Peter Gabriel,

Now: EZboard is pretty damn cool, but you have to respect people. That is the basic problem with the Dog-Damned world: NO FOOKING RESPECT.

So, here is the Sleazy-EZ-Bored Privacy Policy:

IX. VIOLATIONS OF PRIVACY
Only the individual whose information is
posted may submit a valid complaint of this type.

Definition: Posting or otherwise causing to appear on an ezboard any of
the following, without the permission of the subject(s):
Full name
Residential or business address
Phone number
Social Security number
Credit card number
E-mail address
Pictures of subject or subject's
family/friends/pets/place of residence or employment/study
IP address
Partial names, addresses, etc. (e.g., "555-1x5x") will be treated as
complete.
Complaint Procedure:
Fill out and send a Legal Issue Request Form
Select "Violations of Privacy"
under "Specify Your Issue"
In the description, include URL's that contain
the specific posts that you believe are in violation; where appropriate, provide
a description of the posts, including user name and a description of
contents.

See, a certain person had ASKED me to basically VIOLATE someone else's PRIVACY by basically saying "Heh, hey good buddy, can you post So-snd-so's IP ADDRESS so that it can be proven that I am not that person"

Well, "Certain Person" probably had NO IDEA what kind of Privacy Invasion she was asking me to do, and basically was setting me UP for a GLOBAL BAN.

So, of course the inquiry was worded like "I need to prove that so and so is not me... Can you POST so and so's IP addy?

Holy FUCK Fatblam, does she think I am THAT STOOPID?

Then I get this HUGE giGANtoid Flooging POS Private Message (ANOTHer thing this, this... THING likes to do, is POST private MESSAGES FROM you TO the Main Board. THE FUCK? Is there SUCH a thing as Privacy?

WHO HERE THINKS THAT POSTING PRIVATE MESSAGES TO A PUBLIC FORUM IS BASICALLY A COMPLEAT BREACH OF PRIVACY AND THAT THE VIOLATOR OF SUCH A TRUST SHOULD IN FACT BE SHOT, AND THEN BEATEN WITH BILLY CLUBS BY THE INTERNET COPZ? AND THEN BOILED IN OIL? WHO HERE AGREES WITH ME THAT THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE FUCKING RUDEST THING THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED IN THE WORLD OF COMMUNICATIONS?

So, then I get a note- and this is AFTER I moved her IP-revealing THREAD... "Gee I am STOOPID, Duh Gugh-Gudly-Fnoog-Popity-finoogle-glooog!- And I DO NOT KNOW A THING about privacy rules--- MmmmM? and IP addy's GEE WHAT'S THAT WHAT ARE Those what's an IP addy?

And I was just thinking, EITHER this woman (of you can call IT that) would be a FUCKING, STOOPID BUFFOON-COW... or WHAT?

Well the ANSWER to this is ENIGMA is an OR WHAT!

THIS little PITY-PARTY got REJECTED LAST NIGHT when I FOUND OUT, from someone who has HIGH credibility:

That THIS PERSON I am "talking about" ACTUALLY KNOWS MORE ABOUT HOW THE INTERNET WORKS THAN A LOT OF PEOPLE DO... They are actually very CLEVER with it.

Cos if this is TRUE: THEN they did MORE than harm someone by calling them names... Or pretended to be an IDIOT by posting IP addys and TRIED to get ME GLOBALLY BANNED...

Anyway, for now, I am sitting on this shit, and I even apologised to the person... For now. And let me say one thing about MY Blog: It's PRIVATE.


So, if I see parts of this posted at places where I go to hang out to have FUN... Well, I have been ITCHING for a reason to permanent-Ban someone.

So... GIVE me a reason, PLEASE!

Fucking DUCKFUCKERS!

Ok, the STORY needs to be RETOLD.

UPDATED! Re-did the Bass and added a NEW guitar part!

WARNING! This song contains GUITAR WANKING

I just kind of pieced this together today.

I was in a hurry, Ha Ha:

I’m sick of your shit
I’m sick of your name
Your bloated pronouncements
Your alleged *Fame*
I’m sick of the kid
Gloves that I need
To handle your shit
And the places you’ve peed
King of the nothing
And the porno Affair
Mouth full of bullshit
Head full of Air
I’m sick your SHIT
Why don’t you suck a teat?
We’re sick of your Face:

An Ape, by any other name,
like SHIT would REEK!

We’re sick of your dramas
We’re sick of your spew
You spit like a llama
You eat jackarse STEW

We’re sick of the dogma
And catma you fling
Why don’t you SHUDDUP

Your words:

DON’T MEAN A THING

King of the sex chat
It’s there in your hand
Whenever you type
Your gland’s in your HAND

We’re sick of your SHIT
Why don’t you eat Feces?
We’re sick of your Non-face:

A JERK, by any other name, A JERK REMAINS!


This is aboot EFFee Tee and his stoopid little website, Und how it allegedly gopt "HACKED."

He was dumb enough to leave an FTP server with ANONYMOUS ACCESS with UPLOAD PRIVELEGES.

you just do this:
ftp://anonymous:asshole@asshole.com@meetfathertime.com

(This will no longer work, cos after I entered the site and uploaded 50 MB of a Japanese Anime Cartoon through this ANONYMOUS EGRESS which is 100% LEGHAL for me to ENJTER and do what the foog I WANT... I posted on MP3.com HOW to "IT" HOW to protect yourself from this kind of stuff, and, HE/IT actually TOOK MY ADVICE... So, IT/HE is an IDIOT!)

So, anyone could ENTER his site and upload shit. What a dumb ass. EVERYBODY knows that when you make a SITE, that you do NOT allow ANONYMOUS ACCESS to it. This is like, the Law of Gravity: If ANYONE messes with Websites, it is like RULE NUMBER 1: Do NOT allow ANONYMOUS FTP ACCESS to the site, you FUCKFACE!

Anyone entering a website that allows anonymous FTP access has Fair Use of it... If he did not WANT people getting into the site, all he had to do was tell the ISP to not ALLOW Anonymous FTP access. What a fucking stupid asshole.

Also, when I found out that IT'S NAME was G. S. Stambaugh: This was how I did it:

tess2.uspto.gov/bin/gate.exe?f=searchss&state=5bb9uo.1.1

If that does not work, you will have to go to

uspto.gov

And click "New Search"

And type "Father Time" [WITH QUOTATION MARKS!] into the BASIC SEARCH window.

The record is the 4th record out of 15 records.

It's all PUBLIC record dude

No "Detective" work required, I just checked ALL the records that used the name "Father Time" and the one that was MUSIC-based had to be him. Cos, I knew that with this creep's BLOATED ego, there was NO way that he/IT did NOT set up some kind of Trademark.

You can't just REGISTER a trademark without giving REAL personal info.
If XX's REAL NAME is NOT G.S. Stambo, then he's breaking all kinds of FEDERAL Laws.

SO LET us get the the MEAT of the matter.

This activity resulted in people thinking that I do hacking. NO. I do NOT do Hacking- If I DID, then I would CERTAINLY do a LOT more than simply Uploading an MPEG CARTOON to XX's personal Website.

So, XX should consider ITself LUCKY that I DO NOT do HACKING.

Shit, half of the crap I do is to keep hackers OUT of MY system.

But, if a REAL hacker wanted EGRESS into ANY of our systems, nobody could stop them.
There are guys out there that live for compleatly fucking you over... I know a few of them, and by Ghod you do NOT want to piss these guys off.

So, fooking Goobly-Fartglargh- Shitippity- POOP!

(And... NOPE. I have not read ONE ICKY Word that has emitted from XX's Ugly Fookin HAIRY Butt-like SWEARHOLE.)

So: Was what I did NICE?

Who fuckin CARES if what I did was NICE or not. FUUUUCK Nice.

You think what FUCKFACE here has been SPEWING at me the last few weeks has been NICE?

Go look at http://Moosiks.com , the DESTRUCTION of Moosiks, is 100% COMPLEAT. XX has DESTROYED http://Moosiks.com Compleatly- He has OBLITERATED it:

I HEREBY give you this assignment: Go to Moosiks and go back about 6 pages.

COUNT the amount of DEROGATORY THREADS aimed at ME by SCOTT.
So, you wanna TALK about NICE? FUCK YOU if you THINK that Scott's TORRENT-O-SPEW aimed at ME is NICE.

WHAT IS WORSE goddam it:

Scott's SPEW aimed at ME, or the fact that 1) I looked up a PUBLIC record and discovered that some JACKASS that had TRADEMARKED the name FATHER TIME was named G.S. Stambo and HERE is the PUBLIC RECORD on that:

Quote:

---

Word Mark FATHER TIME Goods and Services IC 041. US 100 101 107. G & S: entertainment, namely live performances by a musical band. FIRST USE: 19980518.

StambaughType of Mark SERVICE MARK Register PRINCIPAL Live/Dead Indicator LIVE

---

So... NICE heh?

There is actually an ADDRESS listed there, but, anyone can LOOK THE RECORD UP and get it.
As I Said, it is a PUBLIC RECORD.

2) I entered an FTP site and I UPLOADED some stuff.

Well, I COULD have gone in there, and DELETED his INDEX.HTML file, RIGHT? But what he does NOT even mention in all this shit, is that I DID NOT DO THAT.

I mean, If I was REALLY trying to be Malicious, WHICH I WAS NOT: I Could have and WOULD HAVE Deleted his whole SITE.

Anyway, I also would NOT have posted INSTRUCTIONS to him on how to keep ANONYMOUS PEOPLE OUT of his WEBSITE.

OY VEY what a fookface. Does IT want an APOLOGY for that? I'LL offer an apology: I will PISS right on IT'S head, and I'll FOOKING apologise if I MISS.

I am NOT interested in what IT wants. What I want is to be Free of IT's SHIT.

So, If IT wants, IT can FUCKIN shuddup.

Fucking DUCKFUCKER!
