Are we there yet?

Really...... is the election over yet?

Are we done arguing which way the water should spin as we flush this country and the things it stood for down the drain? By all means, be excited and get your lazy Red or Blue asses out and vote but please... I'm begging here... pleeeeeeze SHUT THE FUCK UP AND QUIT ARGUING WHICH SIDE IS BETTER!!!!!!

They are flip sides of the the same rotting cow PIE, They are
RED vs. BLUE
A Socialist vs A Fascist
Stalin vs. Hitler!!!

THEY BOTH SUCK!!!!!!!! ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!

Everyone get your ass out and vote! Quit fucking talking... yeah... you... you in the corner with the Barack McCain/John Obama button on waving your lil flag... that means you too fucktard!

Lets get this all over with then release the virus and let the Zombies come!!! I got my crowbar and shotgun so I'm all set.

Besides... zombies eat brains so they will soon starve to fucking death in this fucking country.

When did it all change?

Opportunity and success... two things that are tied closely together. The latter is impossible without the former, however, the former does not guarantee the latter. At least this is how I see things, how I have been taught buy history, life, and others. These are too interrelating concepts that are, or were, key ideas in the grand experiment called the USA.

Recent conversations... well to be honest arguments... tell me this has all changed. At least the relationship of the two concepts seems to have changed. And i didn't get the damn memo!! *shakes her fist in anger*

The first convo was with a business associate who looks down at me for my lack of advanced degrees, my lack of junk dangling between my legs, for my common (read honest) way I deal with others o the team, not to mention the color of my skin. He hides all this behind his concern and outrage at the social injustice that has so obviously kept me and others from being a success (having a 20year+ career, respect from peers in the same game, and owning my own small business is not successful enough to count I guess).

The second convo was with a person I grew up with. A person bemoaning the she is an alcoholic fucktard that is a leach on society (ok thoes are my words, she had a different description for her for the state of her life). A person that is angry at the she was not "allowed" to make more of herself, angry that I have been soooo lucky to have been given all that I have. She seems to forget that we went to the same schools, lived in the same hood, that she was given the scholarships that I was denied oh so many years ago

The two themes both the conversations shared, the basic logic both people seems to be following was that opportunity leads to success and that lack of success is indisputable proof that opportunity was DENIED! That SOMEONE took it away.

So all you fucktards out there who whine daily that you are not all you can be, rejoice!!! Its not your fault! Someone has denied you your place in the sun, someone has stolen the bread of opportunity from your very lips. How do I KNOW this? You are a fucktard without a Benz and 42 plasma TVs. This could not happen in a just and fair world so it is OBVIOUS that you have been denied opportunity!

As the obvious failure that I am, I feel so much better that I understand this new paradigm.

I got a new cell phone..

I broke my cell this weekend. Not intentionally this time but a real accident. It fell out of my jacket pocket. if I mention I was riding a motorcycle at the time?

Anyway I go the to cell phone kiosk to get a new one. I can see the sales boi's eye light up as he started pitching phones that have a 3.0 bazillon pixel camera, 3G Internet access, that play music when ever you fart.. that will stand up to sing and dance as they get you coffee! The poor boi was getting positivly excited as he talked about all these "must have" features!. I was afraid someone was going to have to get a towel and help clean up his... mess.

So just before he climaxed (he was rubbing a pretty touch screen frantically and panting) I interrupted him...

"Stop.. here is what I need in a phone...

1. I need it to ring we someone calls me... ring, not play music, simply ring

2. I need to be able to CLEARLY hear the person that has called me.

3. I need to have the person that called me hear my voice CLEARLY

4. I need to do 2 and 3 while my hands and fingers are pounding a keyboard

5. I need to do 2 and 3 while driving a car, keeping my hands on the wheel and shifter at all times.

that is it. end of requirements... "

At this point he studdered "but.. but.. but... " then this sad crestfallen look comes across his face. It was prolly the look he has when his GF stops the hummer to send a text message to her other BF. Needless to say I smiled sweetly and then laughed at him.

End of the story is I have a snazzy new cell phone with more features then I will every use but it was the only one that met all five of my, what I thought were, simple requirement. All this left me asking the question.. When did something as annoying as a phone become a toy?"

Energy "crisis"

Yep another post... I gots lots of random thoughts to catch up on!

I've been following the debates on the "energy crisis" here in the US. Watching people running up and down the streent screaming "the sky is falling!!!" Everyone on is asking for solutions. Many are offering them up but WE keep tossing them aside because they will take to long, or don't fit our nice lil view of how things "should" be. WE waste time looking for someone to blame for it all.. someone WE can punish for OUR own short comings.

GET OVER IT PEOPLE!!!!!!! You want someone to blame, look in the fucking mirror. The current situation is OUR fault. Got that? Good.. now can we move on to doing something about it?

What can we do you ask? First off, WE need to wake up and pull OUR collective head out of OUR collective ass then realize that there IS NO PERFECT SOLUTION! Say it with me... THERE IS NO PERFECT SOLUTION!!!!! Has that sunk in? Goooooood... now then to ask the question what can be done?

To this my answer is EVERYTHING.. We need to drill for more oil, change our habits and conserve more, invest in Wind/Solar/PigShit Methane/etc (both federally and individually), build more nuke plants, rethinks the regulations that hold us back, do anything and everything people can think of. And do it all now. Of couse much of this stuff is not going to pay off for 5, 10, or 20 years from now and there will be pain between now and then but get over it. Growth and change means PAIN!!!!! Let's grow up, bite down, and get it done!

Alpha moms and SUVs

Life and business continues to be busy. I've been working a gig on-site about 65 miles north of my apartment. So a lot of the last few days has been spent driving up to the client site and back every day. During my drive I have taken note of somthing... That there are a hell of a lot of cellphone talking, make-up applying, doublechocohalfcafskinny latte drinking, bratty kids in the back seat smacking, ginormous SUV driving alpha moms running about on the road WITHOUT a FARKING CLUE there are other vehicles around them!! Twice... TWICE... in the past 4 days I have been nearly rubbed into the weeds one of these fine individuals! One, this morning, past me (at OVER 90mph) with a cell phone in one hand and applying her lipstick with the other. Notice, BOTH of this persons hands were full. What the fark was she driving with? Her Knee? At over 90 mph?!?!?!?!?!?! AAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGHHHHHH!!!!!

Sunrise and a Rant

Such a wonderful day so far. Was up before dawn and was able to watch the sun rise over the mountains to start a new day. Sat there, sipping my coffee watching the world go from black, to shades of grey, then to a glorious blaze of color. I said my prayers to the four directions and then turned to the tasks of the day...

I work from home and I hang out on a couple of forums while doing my working. There as been much discussion on politics as once might guess given all that is going one at this time. But comment really hit a hot button with me. One individual made the statement that his was not going to vote as a form of protest....

WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?!?!?!

A person is willing to give up a FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT. A FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT that is the basis of the founding of this farking country!!! THAT mindset is the farking cause of much of the problems we face in the US. The antipathy or the misplaced activism that leads one to WILLING give up a RIGHT. That is what the politicians want above ALL. The want to gather power by taking it away from us or (even better for them) us willingly giving it up. The politician here want to farking RULE not lead. As long as we LET them rule by not exercising our RIGHT to vote WE perpetuate the crap that has become the elected "leadership" of our country.

I don't care WHO people vote for. Red vs. Blue, Right vs. Left. I DON'T FARKING CARE!!!!! GET OFF YOUR ASS AND PARTICIPATE!!!!!
