Writer's Block: Change is good

2009-11-05T03:04:29Z

If you could change one major thing about your life, whether a relationship, your job, your living situation, your school, etc., what would it be? Are you currently working toward a serious life transition?

Major life transition?
Already in the works. Not posting it here though since no one needs to have my life history inflicted on them.

Writer's Block: Would you talk to the dead?

2009-10-31T12:46:17Z

Have you ever participated in a seance? If not, would you consider it? What spirit would you summon and what question would you ask them? Do you believe we can get messages from the dead?

Nope. Never did a seance. Why would dead folks want to talk to us anyway?
That's why they died in the first place...to *get away* from this shithole world.

Writer's Block: Bucket list

If you found out you only had six months left to live, what would you do with the rest of your life? Do you have a "bucket list"?

Heehee!
I would definitely set up a dictatorship of the proletariat that would start by hanging all the major corporate CEO's of the Banking & Finance industry, oil and auto industry.
Then I could install all the sensible folks of my own choosing that would implement a plan to clean up this stinking planet and stabilize the economy with gold based currency (again!)
A crash program to convert all energy sources to hydrogen, fusion, wind, renewable vegetable oil (switch grass & algae and solar power.
That would pretty much end most incentives for wars. Yay! :)
Oil is too valuable to piss away by burning it all.
Nuclear power plants will be shut down and dismantled. The employees will be shuttled to clean energy sources so they won't be just fired/laid off. (unless they are like Homer Simpson) :)

The existing government can be retained as a powerless figurehead but they will be limited in salary to less than $45,000 each and the penalty for influence peddling will be swift and severe. Hanging by neck from the yard arm, being shot repeatedly, keel hauled and then boiled in oil.
...And that's just to give us time to figure out ways to hurt them.

Once my dynasty is installed the people will all prosper and love their benevolent ruling class so much that rebellion would be out of the question.

Then again.............NAAAH...No one would go for it.

Back in the dark depths of time..before there were Transformers there was
Robot Commando by Ideal Toys.

Wowsers!

Cool commercial even though it was a real hunk of garbage that was
blatantly misrepresented! Shame.
On Saturday mornings they hammered kids with this crap endlessly!
It took 8 'D' size batteries and broke down a lot.
It cost $19.95 in 1961 dollars (do the inflation)

Now it is a much sought after collector's item. Ironic...

I got moved over to the Shelter,Thursday. Wednesday was hell as I
got delayed by my starter going into kaput mode on my car.
A furry and I got it changed out though and by then the day was over but I got
everyother thing done. Yay...
Not bad for a roof and 2 squares a day. Breakfast is a donut and milk. Blah.
Lunch and dinners are often donated from various non-profit places around town
so the food is actually pretty good. Amazing.
:)Hmm...Ok.
It's clean. No vermin. That's good. I was worried it would be a rougher place
but they throw out people that fuck up so I guess that works...
Looks like it's only running at 50% full due to lack of funds so this means I
get a whole bunk to myself and store stuff on the top. Not bad...
I'm working out of a local Library and Wendys when the library is closed.
So far so good.
I hope Dept of Geologic Survey people will hire me. They seemed interested when
I went over to drop off my hard copy application.

This lady learned an important lesson. (if she is lucky the college won't counter-sue and/or maybe the judge will throw the case out for frivolity. )
The ugly truth:
Colleges take your money and you get a sheepskin after 4 some odd years of work.
They REALLY aren't there to help you get a job once you leave. Nope.
In fact, unless you can show them you can bring in millions in federal/state grants they really don't give a shit.
If you hear otherwise it's either a lie or because the grad knew someone important.
Got a degree in business with IT. Awesome.
There's thousands of other folks out there with that same piece of paper.
You were expecting folks to be falling all over each other to hire *YOU*?
Doesn't happen.
We ARE in a recession right now and there are folks out there with PHD's that are pushing a broom.
So...
Here is your burger spatula unless you wanna be in the french fryin' legion today.
Better grab a mop too I think some kid threw up by table #6.
Oh yes, and do be sure not to pour water into the deep fryer, because after you get outta the hospital, you'll be fired. (they dont teach you that shit in College of Business) :)
