747 - WTF!

Being a retired phone company guy I can get a discount on cell phones through my old company. That's where I got my new phone. But they are farther away than other cell phone stores. So why not go to the closest cell phone store to get a USB cable? (previous post – Bluetooth doesn’t seem to work to download files)
Store 1 - I'm sorry, we don't carry accessories. You can order them online. Phttt.
Store 2 - I'm sorry, we don't carry accessories. You can order them online. Phttt.

Back home I go not having time to go to the real cell phone store. I haven't tried tech support yet, why not give it a go. Call, transfer, transfer, on hold while call to manufacturer, explanation – Bluetooth doesn’t work on that phone for downloading files, it only works with the headset. You have to get a USB cable if you want to download your pictures. Phtttttttttt

You would think that if the only way to get pictures off your phone was through a cable, THEY WOULD HAVE INCLUDED IT!

John suggested the email option but I don’t want to pay to get each picture off. So it’s off to the real cell phone store tomorrow. Maybe.

746 - ARGGGGG!!

Two hours of my life gone. All in the name of electronics that don't work.

When I worked for the real phone company back in the day and a new product came out, you could be sure that it had been tested with every other phone company product to make sure they were compatible. That was the good old days. Today we are the compatibility testers.

Go back to yesterday. John called me. Yes USA John. He was coming through St. Louis and was stopping at Ted Drews. Did I want to meet him there? Yes I did want to see if he was still alive, so Claudia and I met up with him. She took a picture of us to prove we were there.

When I got home the fun started. I have a new cell phone that I had not downloaded pictures from yet. (and still haven't) I set up the bluetooth connection that worked with the old phone (same manufacturer as my new phone), get a connection, click on file transfer, and .... nothing. No files come up to look at, there's nothing in the manual, there's nothing on line. Two hours later, F*&$ it! So off to the cell phone store today to get a USB cable to see if that will work. Any bets?


On a lighter note (not), if you haven't been to Uncle Jay recently, this is a good one.

745 - Quotes

Here's something I haven't done in awhile. Go steal quotes from John. England John, not USA John. Although I did find out that USA John follows England John's daily posts from a comment. So I went back and picked out some quotes from a few years ago. And surprise. I ran across some duplicates. I think England John likes the first one a lot.


ANON or WILLIAM FAULKNER or Chinese Proverb
The person who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.

ANON
A little bit of help is better than a great deal of pity.

GANDHI
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

HECTOR BERLIOZ
Time is a great teacher. Unfortunately it kills all its pupils.

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN
There are three things which are extremely hard - steel, a diamond, and to know oneself.

RALPH WALDO EMERSON
Insist on being yourself. Never imitate.

HENRY VAN DYKE
Use what talent you possess. The woods would be very silent if no birds sang except those that sang best.

THE DALAI LAMA
Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.

WINSTON CHURCHILL
Success is never final.

CHARLES CALEB COLTON
Men will wrangle for religion, write for it, fight for it, die for it - will do anything but live for it.

JOHN QUINCY ADAMS
Old minds are like old horses. You must exercise them if you wish to keep them in working order.

ELEANOR ROOSEVELT
Learn from the mistakes of others.
You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.

MOTHER TERESA
If you judge people, you have no time to love them.

Well somebody had to do this today!

Go ahead hit the button. Nothing bad is going to happen. Trust me.


I've already covered this with my post 001.


I didn't think this cartoon was all that funny. What does everybody else think?


I just hate when I hear those two words.


I couldn't agree more.


And this works well with the previous cartoon.

743 - Can't take it.

Can't take it. Who me? No them. The other side. The not me.

This first cartoon is from Bandit. He and Frank send this cr*p to me all the time. They can't help it. They're ..... I can't say it.

***************

***************
The problem with this cartoon is the cartoonist forgot to point out why the cow is so skinny to begin with. I think it has something to do with 10 billion x 12 months x 7 years (and counting).


***************

"The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money."
...Margaret Thatcher
***************

If we were heading towards pure socialism I would be fighting it as much as the next person. The fact is that the US is a Democratic Socalistic Republic. We are a lttle bit of everything. That's what keeps us going. We had a taste of 'as close as we have come to pure' capitalism (or fascism) for the last 8 years. And look what that got us. I think I like the Democratic Socalistic Republic we have and prefer a little more socialism than to much capitalism.

I haven't done a rant in awhile. I'm pumped. I think I'll go out and kick some ass now.

742 - Bandit 4

Bandit 4 - Sounds like a movie sequil doesn't it.

********************

I became confused when I heard the word 'service' used with these agencies:

Internal Revenue 'Service'
U.S. Postal 'Service'
Telephone 'Service'
Cable TV 'Service'
Civil 'Service'
State, City, County & Public 'Service'

This is not what I thought 'service' meant.

But today, I overheard two farmers talking, and one of them said he had hired a bull to 'service' a few cows.

BAM!!! It all came into focus. Now I understand what all those agencies are doing to us.

741 - Bandit day three

This is great. I don't have to think about anything this week. Here's another one from Bandit.

******************************

HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND DON'T MOVE FAST ANYMORE.

George Phillips , an elderly man, from Meridian, Mississippi, was going up to bed, when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to go turn off the light, but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things.

He phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?" He said "No, but some people are breaking into my garden shed and stealing from me."

Then the police dispatcher said "All patrols are busy. You should lock your doors and an officer will be along when one is available."

George said, "Okay."

He hung up the phone and counted to 30.

Then he phoned the police again. "Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I just shot them." and he hung up.


Within five minutes, six Police Cars, a SWAT Team, a Helicopter, two Fire Trucks, a Paramedic, and an Ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence, and caught the burglars red-handed.

One of the Policemen said to George, "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"

George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"

****************

This story is supposedly true. Well....... SNOPES

740 - From Bandit too (two)(also)(and three)(too)

So Bandit said, "where's the one about the Schmidtt (or something like that) family?" I didn't use it first because I thought the narration was a little strange. The graphics are good. But the guy should have had his kid do the voice over.

And then there are the excuse notes. These are real. How do I know? The email said so! (We are going to have to work as a group and make something like this up and put it out in cyberspace.)

739 - From Bandit

Here's a little diddy about Little Bruce and Jenny -

Little Bruce and Jenny are only 10 years old, but they know they are in love. One day they decide that they want to get married, so Little Bruce goes to Jenny's father to ask him for her hand.

Little Bruce bravely walks up to him and says, "Mr. Smith, me and Jenny are in love and I want to ask you for her hand in marriage."

Thinking that this was just the cutest thing, Mr. Smith replies, "Well Bruce, you two are only 10. Where will you live?"

Without even taking a moment to think about it, Little Bruce said, "We can live with my parents. We can both fit there nicely."

Still thinking this is just adorable, Mr. Smith says with a huge grin, "Okay then how will you live? You're not old enough to get a job. You'll need to support Jenny."

Again, Little Bruce instantly replies, "Our allowance. Jenny makes five bucks a week and I make 10 bucks a week. That's about 60 bucks a month and that should do us just fine."

Mr. Smith is impressed Little Bruce has put so much thought into this. "Well Bruce, it seems like you have everything figured out. I have one more question. What will you do if the two of you should have little ones of you own?"

Little Bruce just shrugs his shoulders and says, "Well, we've been lucky so far."

Another what? Another cheap post, that's what! Amanda said yesterday she hadn't been to Life Hacker in awhile. So being in the "what to post now" mode, how about some more sites you may not have been to in awhile.

GOOGLE the blog. (a blog that follows google goofs and stuff)

736 - Sleep

I am not getting up early today (like 8am). It just messed up my day yesterday. Habitat conference call at 9. Shuffle two cars back and forth to the mechanic. Walk in the park (sunny,60f) with Claudia. Missed commenting to get in on the 'comment back' comments. But I'm getting back to nor.... to being me. (I did a comment back comment yesterday, late) (Hey, new net lingo. Comment back comment - CBC. OMG! That's gr8!)

A boy and a girl standing and facing each other. Both are about 8 to 9 years old. Both are just in their underpants. The girl has her underpants pulled open in the front and is looking down. The boy also is peering down into them. The girl then says something that describes life itself. She says, “See this? This is going to control you for the rest of your life.”

735 - Green

I know I'm a little late for St. Patties day but better late than never.

************************

An Irish man went to confession in St. Patrick's Catholic Church. 'Father', he confessed, 'it has been one month since my last confession. I had sex with Nookie Green twice last month.' The priest told the sinner, 'You are forgiven. Go out and say three Hail Mary's.'

Soon thereafter, another Irish man entered the confessional. Father, it has been two months since my last confession. I've had sex with Nookie Green twice a week for the past two months.' This time, the priest questioned, 'Who is this Nookie Green?' A new woman in the neighborhood,' the sinner replied. 'Very well,' sighed the priest. 'Go and say ten Hail Mary's.'

At mass the next morning, as the priest prepared to deliver the sermon, a tall, voluptuous, drop-dead gorgeous redheaded woman entered the sanctuary. The eyes of every man in the church fell upon her as she slowly sashayed up the aisle and sat down right in front of the priest. Her dress was green and very short, and she wore matching, shiny emerald-green shoes.

The priest and the altar boy gasped as the woman in the green dress and matching green shoes sat with her legs spread slightly apart, but just enough to realize she wasn't wearing any underwear.

The priest turned to the altar boy and whispered, 'Is that Nookie Green?'

The bug-eyed altar boy couldn't believe his ears but managed to calmly reply, 'No Father, I think it's just a reflection from her shoes'.

733 - AIG bonuses

Moveon.org is doing a petition to try and get some of our money back from AIG. I think this is more important than any of the political party agendas they've had in the past.

************************************

If you had to find one single group of people to blame for our economic crisis, you'd definitely have to consider the financial products division of AIG.

They made huge, bad bets on the housing market that have cost taxpayers $170 billion...so far. That's more than $500 from every American.(1)

But get this: The Washington Post just reported that these people are receiving $450 million in bonuses—and they got their first installment yesterday.(2) They destroyed our economy, and now they're being rewarded for it with our bailout money!

We can't let this stand. Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and Congress need to do whatever it takes to get our money back.

Can you sign our petition today and then pass it on? We'll deliver it to Secretary Geithner and the congressional committees that supervise AIG. Clicking below will add your name:

http://pol.moveon.org/aigbonus/o.pl?id=15739-3547310-GuAWqrx&t=3

After you sign, please forward this to friends and family to make sure the outcry is impossible to ignore. The petition says: "Under no circumstances should the AIG executives who helped create the financial crisis receive bonuses. That's our money and you should do whatever it takes to get it back."

The government may need to get creative to recover these bonuses, but where there's a will, there's a way. And some folks in Congress get it. Representative Barney Frank and Senator Russ Feingold are already investigating ways to get the money back.(3)

Secretary Geithner already shamed AIG into reducing the bonuses they planned on paying out. But seven executives in the financial products division still received bonuses of more than $3 million each. These people wrote literally trillions of dollars in insurance contracts—those infamous credit default swaps—that they could never hope to cover. And they're getting huge bonuses for perpetrating this fraud.

AIG's main defense is that they have to honor the contracts with these employees. But let's be clear: AIG would be bankrupt and these folks would already have been laid off if it weren't for the government's massive infusion of money. The big car companies took far less taxpayer money, and they're modifying their contracts with autoworkers. AIG should do the same with its employees.(4)

Geithner and Congress need to do whatever it takes to recover that money.

Wall Street has proven over and over that it's incapable of policing itself. So our elected representatives need to. Sign the petition below and we'll deliver it to Secretary Geithner and Congress to let them know that we're counting on them to step up. Clicking below will add your name:

http://pol.moveon.org/aigbonus/o.pl?id=15739-3547310-GuAWqrx&t=4

Let's start Monday off right. With a perfect proof. I've found some proofs before but none as straight forward as this one.



See how simple that was? And if the girls don't go along with it, it just proves the proof. If they do agree it reinforces the proof. Again, simple stuff.


And don't forget to be nice and go to FREE RICE and help save the world. I did a 1000 grains last night.

731 - Strike two

Well pooppies. Friday came and went and I missed it. What? Friday the 13th. I usually warn everybody every month. So on a month when it's actually on Friday I miss it. So it goes. At least Bilbo remembered and warned everyone for me. Thanks. Next month I'll try and be more alert although I promise nothing.

So on to strike two. That would be yesterday. The once a year date that has come and gone now. Jeez I'm sleepin' here! What was yesterday? PI DAY! 3.14 The day when your supposed to eat round things. The day when your life goes in circles. The day .... I forgot!

If you've never been to my pi page it's here. It's the first million digits of pi. There's a computer program that generates pi. It's a nice test to see how fast your computer runs. On mine it takes a little over 3 seconds to generate a million digits. One time I decided to give up my computer for awhile a see how long it would take to kick out a billion digits. It took about a day and a half.

I think I still have the file if anyone wants to see it. It's a about a gig and a half. I had to break it apart to get pieces of it to open in any program. Even textpad wouldn't open it. When I finally did get it open I found numbers. Lots and lots of numbers.

So on this miss I've got another year to wait. I'm getting so forgetful I may need a vacation soon.

730 - Crazy?

Well I know the last two days made me crazy for what turned out to be a simple problem. How many times have you had somebody suggest a solution to you and you think, "I know that won't work because ..... ". It all comes down these days to knowing what button to push.

Speaking of pushing buttons, is somebody pushing your buttons and making you crazy? Here's a New Scientist article called 'Instant Expert: Mental Health'. Hopefully the magazine link keeps working for awhile because the article has more links than Carter has liver pills. If you follow all the links make sure you stay hydrated.

If the previous link quits working, here's the article without all the extra links.

729 - Payback 2

I quit. If you didn't view the videos yesterday you have another chance today. By going back to yesterday and cutting and pasting the links. I have no idea why blogger doesn't like these two links. But it keeps putting my blog URL in front of them. Only when you mouse over them and click. I checked the source code and the URL is not there. I copied a different URL from college humor that works on another post and it worked here. WTF!!!! Again, I quit. Alotted time has elapsed for blog trouble shooting.

728 - Payback

The college humor site has several subplots running. One is between Arim and Streeter. They are always pulling pranks on each other. BIG pranks. Here's the two latest. The videos are almost 6 minutes apiece so make sure you have time to watch them.

Streeter gets slammed. (bad Arim bad)

Arim gets payed back. (good Streeter good)

726 - NAR

I hadn't visited 'not always right' recently. Here's a few gems. The first one made me think of John.

*************************

Thou Shalt Not Use The Lord’s Name To Haggle
MUSIC STORE | DALLAS, TX, USA
(My coworker has just put together a very expensive PA System for the pastor of a church.)

Coworker: “Alright pastor, is there anything else I can get for you today?”

Pastor: “No… thank you. I’m very grateful for all your help. What is the price, son?”

Coworker: “Well, after all of the added items and sales tax, your total comes to $4,478.89.”

Pastor: “What!? Let me ask you this… what would JESUS pay for this?!”

Coworker: *without delay* “Sir, Jesus paid the ultimate price and died for your sins. Your total is still $4,478.89.”

(The pastor was not amused, but paid the full amount.)



Those Foreigners And Their Funny Continents
RETAIL | PHOENIX, AZ, USA
(I’m visiting a friend of mine at work when this exchange occurs.)

Customer: *notes my friend’s nametag* “Matt-ie-oh… what a neat name, where’s it from?”

Friend: “It’s pronounced mah-tay-oh, actually. It’s Spanish.”

Customer: “Oh, really? You don’t look Mexican.”

Friend: “I’m not, I’m Spanish.”

Customer: “Well, what’s the difference?”

Friend: “The Atlantic Ocean?”



Right Place, Wrong Attitude
OFFICE | CALIFORNIA, USA
(I was the second-in-command at a social services agency. One day, our receptionist asked me to take a phone call from a person who was very upset about the way she was being treated, and wanted to talk to the person in charge.)

Me: “Hello, I’m ****, how can I help you?”

Caller: *angry* “Are you in charge there?”

Me: “Yes, ma’am. I am the most senior person here. What can I do for you?”

Caller: *yelling* “So you have a boss?”

Me: “Yes, ma’am.”

Caller: “I’M NOT TALKING TO YOU! I WANT TO TALK TO YOUR SUPERVISOR!”

Me: “My supervisor isn’t here right now. I have the authority to help you, ma’am, if you’ll just let me know what it is you need–”

Caller: “I REFUSE TO SPEAK TO ANYONE BUT YOUR SUPERVISOR! YOU ARE ALL USELESS!”

Me: “I’m sorry, ma’am, my supervisor isn’t here right now. I am in charge.”

Caller: “YOU ARE USELESS!” *hangs up*

Me: *to the receptionist* “Did she tell you anything about what she needed?”

Receptionist: “Yes, she said she needed to take anger management classes.”

I'm not here yet. I'm going to fight this as long as possible.


I already did this on my post xxx. Crap, the post isn't there any more. I think it was on my previous blog that I deleted. Oh well, I had the idea first Wiley.


Bruce tried to come to the middle with this little jab but missed. He seems to have forgotten about the past eight years.

722 - Places to visit

Here's a few odds and end places I've found that have been sitting in my junk file waiting for a theme to develop. Since the theme seems to be 'doesn't go with anything' they seem to go together.


This is an interesting 'find interesting long stuff' site.

http://thelongestlistofthelongeststuffatthelongestdomainnameatlonglast.com


And then I've been waiting for awhile to sneak this in. It's a book site called BIBLIO. Guess who I thought about when I found that. And here's a WIKI search engine to go with it.


And when I found this video I wondered what Andrea's take would be on it.

The font is small again. Fiona get your glasses back out. Try number 4 seems to have worked. Every once in awhile I would go back to google and try to trouble shoot google analytics. I would copy their code. Put it where they told me to put it even if it hurt. But this time it seems to have worked.

There's a different little icon on the google page which seems to indicate it's gathering data. I won't know for 24 hours. I don't know if I can stand the wait. I hope I don't pee when I see the first output after months of trying to make this crap work. (well maybe minutes of trying and months of not caring)

So now I'm going to be able to track every one down, right? Right down to your MAC address*. Well maybe not that close. As a matter of fact I might not care once I see the thing for the first time. Who am I kidding, data ROCKS! Gimme those numbers. Gimme Numeric Life back! Gimme, Gimme, Gimme. (would that be a left wing or a right wing gimme?)

* Every old ethernet card and now every mother board has one of 281 trillion MAC addresses. Or other unique identifier. See Wiki article.


So why did you guys really come here today? To look at some pathetic guy try to get away from a girl? This guy must really be weak. HEY, this was on googles recommended video list!

719 - Law and order

If anyone ever breaks into my house this is the guy I want to do it. My house may get a little messed up but at least I won't lose any of my stuff.

LOSER


And then there's this guy. Probably one of many caught on this TV show.

LOSER 2


Are you on the no call list? Maybe you don't want to be. You can have some fun if you play your end of the call right.

HELLO?


And then for most of the night on Bilbo's blog I've been getting -

"We're sorry...We were unable to handle your request. Please try again or return a bit later."

Does anybody know what he did? Did he shovel part of the sidewalk that wasn't his?

718 - It's time

It's time for a post and I'm brain dead. How can anybody tell? I don't know but I'm glad I don't have to worry about figuring it out.

Speaking of brain dead, I was rearranging my 'links' tonight. I was moving 'not always right' from the links to the 'other sites' section. I copied the link and before I left the little box it was asking if I wanted to delete the link. Sure I did. I copied it and didn't want it there anymore. ....... There's two delete buttons when your working in a 'gadget box'. One deletes the link. The other one deletes the whole gadget box. ........ It took about a half an hour to rebuild my 'links' box.

717 - FML

I found this site. I think most of the stuff on it is made up. I'm not sure but it's still funny. We can take a vote here. Here's some of the stuff from it.

******************
Today, I forgot to do my French homework, but since it was an online worksheet, I told my teacher my internet wasn't working. I told her with an e-mail.

Today, I slept over at a friend's house. We decided to dress up as ninjas and play a trick on her younger brothers, sleeping in the basement. While sneaking down the stairs, in the dark, her mother came home. Thinking I was a robber, she beat me with a lamp.

Today, I told my boyfriend that I don't like his facial hair and that he should shave it off. He replied, "You first."

******************

Off you go to FML
