What I experience...

The weather is weird. I experience it as I walk around the sites each week and this one being my last is no different. I don't like being a security officer and the weather is a part of the reason. Another part is that I don't see the end purpose of a job that any brain-dead moron can perform. I deserve better, much better! I am worth triple my current pay! I require a challenge! I am seeking a new role, one that better suits my personality and abilities. That is what I am and what I need. Just watch and learn. Will out.

The setting moon over Corral Hollow in Tracy

I took this picture while waiting for my shift at the Corral Hollow site to wind down. I think the Corral Hollow site is among the most dull and ridiculous of security gigs imaginable. I am doing the job that police are trained and hired for. It is stupid and I am very happy to be leaving. For my health and sanity, I leave this site behind as of the conclusion of this month. I have to be clear though: it is the site and the stupid hours that my anger is aimed, not the great and friendly people that I interact with during those awful hours. The people are fun to talk to and I expect to visit the tenants as a civ on many occasions. Good day and good luck.

May 5th

Tomorrow, the flags will be waving and the bands will be playing, all in celebration of a day in history which does not involve America.  The fifth of May is marked every year by legal and illegal alike and I don't like it.  Wave your Mexican flags somewhere else, please!

The following is from an email that I rec'd recently: 

MOVING TO  MEXICO 
Dear President Obama
I'm planning to move my family and extended family into 
Mexico  for my health, and I would like to ask you to assist me. 

We're planning to simply walk across the border from the U.S. Into Mexico, and we'll need your help to make a few arrangements. 

We plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws. 

I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Calderon, that I'm on my way over? 

Please let him know that I will be expecting the following: 

1. Free medical care for my entire family. 

2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not. 

3. Please print all Mexican government forms in English. 

4. I want my grandkids to be taught Spanish by English-speaking (bi-lingual) teachers. 

5. Tell their schools they need to include classes on American culture and history. 

6. I want my grandkids to see the American flag on one of the flag poles at their school. 

7. Please plan to feed my grandkids at school for both breakfast and lunch. 

8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services. 

9. I do plan to get a car and drive in  Mexico , but, I don't plan to purchase car insurance, and I probably won't make any special effort to learn local traffic laws. 

10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from their president to leave me alone, please be sure that every patrol car has at least one English-speaking officer. 

11 I plan to fly the U.S. Flag from my house top, put U S. Flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals. 

12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, or have any labor or tax laws enforced on any business I may start. 

13. Please have the president tell all the Mexican people to be extremely nice and never say critical things about me or my family, or about the strain we might place on their economy. 

14. I want to receive free food stamps

15. Naturally, I'll expect free rent subsidies. 

16. I'll need Income tax credits so although I don't pay Mexican Taxes, I'll receive money from the government. 

17. Please arrange it so that the Mexican Gov't pays $4,500 to help me buy a new car. 

18. Oh yes, I almost forgot, please enroll me free into the Mexican Social Security program so that I'll get a monthly income in retirement. 

I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all his people who walk over to the U.S. From Mexico.  I am sure that President Calderon won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely. 

Thank you so much for your kind help. You're the man!!!

This makes perfect sense!

Borders, Language, Culture

Found at the Warriors for Truth website:

IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT.

If you don't agree with this for fear of offending someone....You are part of the problem!

Will we still be the Country of choice and still be America if we continue to make the changes forced on us by the people from other countries that came to live in America because it is the Country of Choice?

We celebrate Christmas....but because it isn't celebrated by everyone.....we can no longer say Merry Christmas. Now it has to be Season's Greetings. It's not Christmas vacation, it's Winter Break. We've gone so far and bent over backwards to not offend anyone, that we are now being offended.

This is an editorial written by an American citizen, published in a Florida Newspaper.
IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Americans. However... the dust from the attacks had
barely settled when the "politically correct!" crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others.

I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to America.
Our population is almost entirely made up of descendants of immigrants. However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.

This idea of America being a multicultural community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity.
As Americans we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle. This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.

We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!

"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan.. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women....on Christian principles....founded this nation... and this is clearly documented.
It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home...because God is part of our culture.

If Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care how you did things where you came from. This is OUR COUNTRY, our land, and our lifestyle. Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his opinion and we will allow you every opportunity to do so! But once you are done complaining, whining and griping about our flag... our pledge... our national motto...or our way of life....I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other Great American Freedom......THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.

It is Time for America to Speak up If you agree -- pass this along.
If you don't agree -- delete it - You are in the WRONG Country! AMEN
I suggest you forward this message to all your friends and family.  Let the world know that America will not go quietly into the night!

Gen. Jones tells a very funny joke!


Not the least bit offensive, this joke that the general tells. Jews
are known to be financially well-off and the Taliban is known to be
ignorant and crazy. This joke portrays the characters as they really
are and that is why they cry foul! Keep the jokes coming, General
Jones!

Try a new site

I have just used a new site that I heard Leo Laporte and Amber MacArthur talk about on their show, Net@Night.  The site is Hunch.com and it is a recommendation engine unlike any other out there.  I searched on Geocaching, a sport I would like to get more involved in, and up popped several questions that helped me refine what I was thinking about.  You don't need an account to use the site, but it helps to keep track of what you previously searched for and to better refine your results.  Hunch.com was created by Caterina Fake of Flickr.com fame.

It's actually quite fun and I highly recommend that you use it.  

All the best!

My visit to my doctor

I visited my doctor today to talk about my sleepiness and my burping. I am tired most of the time and that is due to stress and my darn work schedule. My burping, though, is natural (like I always suspected) and cannot be cured. Also, had to get more blood pulled outta my arm. Five various sized vials! Wow! It was weird seeing the blood fill the vials.
That is all for now.

Vector Marketing Proposed Class Action

I received this curious letter yesterday and would like to make you all aware of it.  

For a few months, over the course of a couple of years, I was involved in selling the highest-quality knives through the Vector Marketing Corporation.  The knives were of course Cutco, the same brand that you can see being given away to contestants on The Price is Right at least once a week.  I was unsure of their sales tactics and did offer some suggestions to the office management, but they would not listen to me cause I was just one of their lowly "Sales Representatives" and had no real power.  I have always wondered if I shouldn't have been paid for my travel expenses and the purchasing of the demonstration set and thus when this letter arrived, I got giddy and I hope that this class-action happens and that Vector is sued into oblivion!  

If you or anyone you know was involved with Vector at any time in the past, please contact this law firm.  We need to kill Vector Marketing!  

Again, let me be clear, I love my Cutco knives and have never had any complaints about the product, it is only the marketing arm of Alcor that this lawsuit is aimed at.  Eliminate Vector, and the world will be a safer place for all college students.

Take a look at this receipt

Last evening, while on-duty as a security officer, I visited the Nestle Cafe, purchased two chocolate chip cookies (very warm and delicious) and a hot chocolate (with whipped cream) and the total for those three items was $6.66!  I made a joke of it and the cashier laughed with me.  The proprietor, Dan, was nearby and suggested I buy a third cookie.  I did not as this number doesn't faze me.  Why should it?  It is just another number after all.  

This was the most interesting thing to occur to me yet as I work this eight-hour shift every Friday.  Alright, I have had the two fights recently, but those aren't interesting, just another problem to be solved rather.  This number popping up out of the blue like this is interesting.  I gave it no heed the remainder of my shift and nothing bad happened, therefore the number has no bearing on life in general.  Just my thought on this interesting item.

Now, go have a great day!

Why the hatred towards Ron Paul?

I noticed this just earlier today, a stripe through Ron Paul's name. This makes me mad, as a libel towards Dr. Paul and vandalism to my personal property. I wish I knew the creep who committed this heinous act so I could help them understand the result of their actions. Dr. Paul is a true patriot and should be honored, not hated. Long live freedom!

The Oscar Noms

Early this morning, the Oscar nominations were announced by Anne Hathaway and some dude.  I was stunned and shocked by the ten (10!) noms in the Best Picture category.  That is way too many and we all know that Avatar will take the statue.  Not because it's worthy of the prize, but rather that James Cameron will defeat his ex.  Yes, that's right, this is a battle between ex's.  James Cameron vs. Kathryn Bigelow.  Once married, now challengers on the field of cinematography.  I sense that Kate will receive two or three statues, but Jim will collect all the rest.  This is the story for the show and it will be mentioned more than once by the entertainment media, even on Oscar night. The host may even make a joke or two about Jim and Kate in the opening.  Just wait and see.  
Btw, thank you to Sarah Lane for pointing out this challenge two days ago on Twitter.

Photographry and children

This story makes me mad as hell!

Since when is it illegal to take a picture of children with Santa,
especially in a public place like a mall?!?! The officers in this
case and all like it are wacked-out and need to be shown the door. I
would suggest that everyone pull out your cameras and snap pictures of
every child you see in the mall. Or for that matter, every child that
you see period. Pedophiles be damned! I don't believe in an America
where our freedoms are dictated by the few bad apples among us. This
is outrageous and stupid! I fully support Mr. Rensberger and I would
encourage him to continue taking pictures.

One week

It is one week until my 30th birthday.  Sadly, I will be working the night before and and the night of, so I will have a party on the Monday after, or the fifth of October for those of you who are brain-dead and cannot think for yourselves.  I am inviting no one to this party and it shall not be considered a pity, I will enjoy the solitude and the time away from the rat race of civilized society.  I will ponder many things and pose many queries to the trees and the squirrels, none will be answered and not a word to be spoken.  I will enter a deep thought process and magically return with a full stream of consciousness to be bombarded by the universe.  Life can be so grand and the answer is 42.

Superman needs help...

Okay, Superman never needs our help, I just wanted to draw your
attention to the plight of the fully enclosed phone booth, as seen in
this video:

Embedded video from CNN Video

I think more should be built, make them high-tech, with cameras and
security systems. If a bum begins to urinate, zap him with a bolt of
energy, smokers would get doused by an overhead sprinkler system, and
those that wish to sleep over night would be charged for the room. I
think this is doable and I would encourage a local entrepreneur to get
right on it.

Apollo 11 + 40

Today is the day that we mark the historic landing of man on the moon.  Forty years ago, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin stepped out of the lunar module and placed footprints on a foreign celestial body.  A very riveting time for our nation and the world as a whole.  I applaud NASA for replaying the tapes from those history-making days in real-time, I have been listening to them and have found much interesting material.  No doubt that Buzz and Neil were very excited about the important and improbable feat that they were to accomplish on this day.  

I encourage everyone to pause for a moment today to reflect upon the masterful and unlikely events of today and send a message to Congress that we need to return to the moon and go to Mars and beyond.  It is our destiny as humans to seek out what is beyond our grasp and to explore what is beyond our reach.  Godspeed Neil and Buzz and all of our astronauts.

Flying

Recently, I flew from Missoula, Montana to Fresno, California via Delta Airlines.  My journey was pleasant and, for the most part, uneventful.  The employees were all very polite and helpful and the worst that happened was them not getting one of my two checked bags back to me until the next day.  My first flight by myself and they misplace one my checked bags.  Not a big deal, cause when I did get it back, all was in order and no complaint needed to be filed.  Not so for Dave Carroll.  

An airline destroying a guitar and then not paying for it's negligence is absurd and cause for a boycott.  You won't see me on United anytime soon.

Montana

I have had a wonderful time in Montana. Well, as wonderful a time as can be had while working with the bees.  I have managed to avoid being stung, accomplished by wearing a bee suit and deftly handling boxes and frames.  The weather has been mostly hot with a cool spell happening in the past 24 hours or so.  Will be glad to return to California tomorrow, on what will be my first time flying alone.  I will be walking through security, finding the gate, and changing planes, all by my lonesome.  Now, I know that for a 29-and-a-half year-old like myself to be saying this may sound weird and even a bit stupid to some people, I think it is a highlight of my life that I am able to do this on my own.  Not that I am in any way physically or mentally handicapped or the least bit stupid or retarded, I am just a normal male who realizes the enormity of the world and all its wondrous ways.  It should be noted for the record, that I am married and I am fully capable of living the good life if I weren't just so damn lazy and bored of life.  I attempt to find the fun, but it is hard and I like to make things easy and to do so while maintaining the highest quality is not so simple after all.  Am I just rambling, perhaps, but this all needs to be said.  I will sign off now, enjoy the day!

Nazi

The Nazis are alive and well
(http://nasa.posterous.com/nazis-on-twitter-why-tolerating-neo-nazi-prop)
on the Internet and we must support their ability to spread their
hate-filled message, lest our message of peace and love be stopped by
the very people who we request to stop the Nazis. Be very careful
what you wish for, it may come back on you someday.

A new message for the masses

I am writing today's post from my office in Livermore, a few days before I depart for Montana with my dad to work the bees and earn a living doing something, because no one is hiring in this area.  Or at least not hiring for a full-time position at a pay-rate necessary to sustain a family (or in my case, myself and my wife and her brother).  
I am sorta excited about Montana.  Being I have been to the state before, it won't be new territory, just a new part of the state.  So, in a way, it is new territory, just not a new state to me.  That's what I mean, yeah.
Anyways, I will have limited internet access while there and will post updates when able.  Pictures as well.  So, until my next post, have a safe and happy day.

GPS system 'close to breakdown'

I don't think the government would allow the GPS satellites to fail, mainly because the military uses them and so do many billionaires who are important to the everyday function of our system of government. Long live the GPS!

'ANGEL' FARRAH FAWCETT CROSSES THE FINAL FRONTIER OF REALITY TELEVISION - New York Post

I did not watch this, nor do I give a wit about Farrah. I am sick of hearing about her and her so-called friends and I cheer her eventual death. Just be gone, will ya? Please? No more Farrah!

One week until rehearsal

Here it is, just one week until we practice the moves to be used on the Sunday, June 1st. Of course, I am referring to my wedding, which arrives in about one week. It is a bit of nervousness, a bit of fear, trepidation, excitement, loathing, wandering, wondering, happiness, giddyness, and other asundry emotions that I feel leading up to this special day in my life, in my bride's life, in the life of our families and friends. I don't really know how else I can express how I feel, other than just by typing and posting this for all the world to see. Just tune in and find out how it goes in one week. One week. Oh, what hath I done!!!!!

The widget

I created my first Drop.io drop near the beginning of the month and have made many more since. I even recently upgraded my original drop with increased space for $10. What you find below is the widget for my original drop at drop.io/riker17.


drop.io: simple private sharing


You can add files if you wish, I just ask that you keep the upload to under 5Mbytes. Thank you and have a great day!

A man and a gun

What is up with FOXNEWS today? This picture of Uday (if that is who it is) makes him look like a good guy. So, he's holding a rifle of some sort. Is that a crime? I don't think so. Heck, if you knew nothing of the guy and saw this pic, you are likely to think that he was a friendly chap, easy to get along with, a poker buddy, if you will. Why show a smiling, friendly-looking Uday, FoxNews?

The BigDog in action!

This is rather amazing, to see a robot with the ability to recover after slipping on ice and walking in snow. View the video here. Way to go, Boston Dynamics!

Women-only gym hours?

Being this is women's herstory month, this story is only fitting: Women-only gym hours at Harvard. This is a slippery slope of the worst kind. This is how it works (for those of you in Rio Linda), begin with something small, seemingly insignificant, like gym hours, and than move on to more items, maybe separate times for eating in restaurants or the type of clothing allowed at the beach. When will we AMERICANS stand up and say "HELL NO!!!!!!" to the Sharia Law spreading this way?! What will it take to wake us up?

Blackberry Blackout

I think I know what happened in this case. The Blackberry service was interupted by our government as a test to see how people would react if the service were interupted, as it has been. This shows that we must be very fearful of our over-seers.

Frank C!

Caliendo, you are a crazy man! Doesn't take much to poke fun at old, balding men, now does it? I am speaking of the Super Bowl XLII Pre-game show on FOX where Frank Caliendo did a flimsy impression of Dr. Phil and when they turn the camera back to Terry and gang, one realizes that the comparison of Dr. Phil to Terry Bradshaw is no mistake, I really think that FOX planned that. Just keep the jokes coming, Frankie.

Groundhog Day

So, Phil saw his shadow, meaning six more weeks of Winter. I thought so, as that is what the calendar says as well. So, cold temperatures will continue. That is all.

MySpace Canceled!

I have successfully canceled my personal MySpace account. Didn't take long at all. You should join me and thousands of others who have canceled their accounts. Tell Murdoch and the execs at FOX to shove it! We webizens demand intelligent design from our sites, that is the main reason I love Facebook. Don't care much for most of the apps, but the main purpose of FB is still there and that is what matters.

New Year

Well, here is my first post of the new year, 2008, a year of campaigning by those that wish to be our next supreme leader. My choice for that position is Dr. Ron Paul, Rep. from Texas. He is the one individual in the battle for top dog that will be the least harmful to our grand America. Think and vote for Ron Paul.
Also, one more thing, in the column on the right, you will notice that I have added a link to my Twitter feed. Stay up-to-date with what I am doing by following me on Twitter. It's fun and FREE!

Offensive? To Dems maybe

This joke, found while reading a FoxNews article, is not hate-speech, as some may call it, but rather it is humor in its truest form. Just laugh and be merry. Why get angry? It is only a joke, after all. And the councilwoman should not have resigned, she should have stuck to her guns, pasted the joke on her own website, and ignored the stupid mayor. I wouldn't have resigned, not for any threat. One must stand up for what's right and not back down when times get tough. This brings to mind a song by Aaron Tippin You've Got To Stand For Something.

PorkChop is offensive?

I don't get it, how is porkchop an offensive term? It is a food, last I checked. Not one that I personally consume, but still edible by those that do. So, for a group to take offense is highly ridiculous and stupid! They are just looking for something to claim offense over, that is what is happening here and with any matter that a group claims is offensive. Hell, the term 'offensive' is hurtful to me. I don't understand the human condition, I just don't. We want to be harmed, it would appear. If I were an ET, that is certainly what I would think about our civilization.

The devil returns

Manatee Status="steamed"

Not surprised, the devil known as Newdow has popped up once again to challenge our freedoms and our national superiority, and he has suckered a New Hampshire couple into joining his idiotic cause. WorldNetDaily is today reporting that a new case has been filed and the threat to our liberty is not over. We must stand up and defend our Pledge of Allegiance and our National Motto from evil idiots such as a Newdow and his ilk. I may be an agnostic, but I certainly don't support the forced removal of God from our public schools. The Pledge is a time-honored and sacred duty of every student and should continue. That is all.

Lake Tahoe

Manatee Status="Slippery"

It is the morning of the memorial service for my Cousin Super Dave and I am in the room typing out this entry for my blog. I will be heading down to the pool shortly to see what it looks like and just to wander about this place. The Mont Bleu Resort is a nice place, great for couples, and the staff is friendly and courteous. This is where Super Dave worked after all.

I will be going about setting up the cameras around 2PM for the 4PM service, presentation, whatever its called. I don't think anyone's come together on what the proper title of it is as yet.

The theatre that we will be using is quite large and has this large drop-down screen that the slideshow will be played out on. Should be fun but also a real tear-jerker as we all know why we are gathered here at this time. We all miss him so much and this is especially difficult on his parents and sister.

I will be signing off now, maid just came by and the room does need its daily cleaning. More later.

Stay out!

Manatee Status="In wow mode"

This story just keeps changing and only gets better with each change. Kelsey did the right thing, and she should be applauded. Getting an illegal out of this country, right on! Now, I do consider her a bit weird for being in love with a creepy Mexican-born student, but maybe she was faking and was really intending to help America by removing an illegal student. I would like to get to know Kelsey and ask her just that.

Am sure this isn't the last we will hear of this international incident and can't wait for the next update.

Admit it, you thought about her...

Manatee Status="Thoughts of love"

Yet another student-teacher love spasm is being reported today, with a 13-year-old male student and his 25-year-old female teacher running off together to who-knows-where. All I have to say is I hope they stay hidden and evade the authorities for as long as possible. If they truelly want to be together, than so be it, I have no problem with it, kids grow up fast in this modern world and we should accept the monstrosity that we have created. I am in no way saying that Kelsey is a monster, quite the contrary in fact, but rather the modern world where feelings are all-important and self-esteem is king. This world dictates that we allow for students and teachers to get together, to be together, and to love one another as two people should do and feel good about it. So, let them be. I know that as a young student, I had a major crush on one or more of my female teachers, and if one of them had initiated a relationship with me, I would have willingly joined her. I would not have been harmed by the relationship, as some psychos would claim, but rather I would have enjoyed the companionship and maybe would be in a better place today. Who knows? Let students be students and if that involves some romps in the hay with a particular teacher, let it happen, it is educational. That is all.
