A world cabal run by...

... roosters... there... is... a... lot... to... think about there. Who knew. Just saying...
                                                

Just saying...

 While watching/listening to talking heads on Youtube I had an epiphany involving a question I have, why people do not use language to get a point across without using strong cuss words. The answer; in written language we have time to come up with alternative wording to get the point across but in verbal commentary off the top of ones head, no matter how well we thought it through in the first place, we have lapses and then the WTF's come forth to fill the gap. Then maybe it's just the shock-jock thing... just saying...

Goodwill shopping; Sunbeam Mixmaster

Goodwill shopping
   I did not go this time with Michelle but she did good. She brought home a Sunbeam Mixmaster model MMB from the1960's with four stainless bowls, two belonging to the mixer all of witch cost her $2.50 and it works, a stainless bowl will cost you $1 or $2 at Goodwill let alone 4 bowls and the mixer.
    Happy hunting.

. . . _ _ _ . . .

Went to this page How to upgrade to the new YouTube channels look , looking for info on using Youtubes new lockstep design. Left a comment... proved I was not a robot ( robots are what YT wants) and then I got a message that said that the comment will be posted when it is approved. @%&^%((** = my hands flapping helplessly in the air! Their watching but not listening. Not to mention there was not much information to be found, useful stuff anyway.

Youtube users will obey, line up and MARCH

Do not blink or Youtube will flicker and damn, Youtube will transform again and you will not even enjoy the transformation, kind of like having sex when stupidly drunk on your backside. Even the videos about the impending changes are outdated now. I was able to re-add a background image a day ago I guess Youtube may have given back a bit? I am trying to adapt, again, to change, not good. With the way my father was when I was a kid I think I am getting tired of adapting. Well I do adapt and accept new ideas or at least acknowledge them. New technologies I embrace. I had to have an Apple 2+ in 1981 but did not get a color TV until 1995 and it was just last year I got a cell phone. What I am saying is that I can and will change but I would like to have a big say in what I want. Youtube can do what they want, however it would behoove Youtube to treat their users with a little respect, it is the users who make Youtube money. I think Youtube figured they there were big enough to force their users into lockstep conformity, why, I am not sure except that it has a lot to do with profits. I better get back to adaptation but I will not give up drinking until my undertaker says so...

'Michael Crook discusses rape' check out his black eye

  He has the freedom of speech... at one point Crook said something about women who do not come forward, well M. C. should review how rape victims, (he uses this as part of his thesis) were treated in the not so distant past and so it goes. OH the black eye; I think he got a definitive reply.

Facebook consists of...

Facebook consists of grunts, gripes, images of pets, and postings of images of funny pictures with funny comments; in short no real content that does one any good except Facebook that may or may not be making money from all the silly posts by users who could better utilize their time by posting the same stuff to Google+, making Google money. I use facebook for crap and google+ for more serious stuff, sort of.

rollingtoastop

I used to have an OK youtube channel with marble making videos and other odd videos. Somehow the channel was taken down and all I ever got back was the data but none of my videos. I am now on my fourth channel. The old videos were not only lost on youtube but because my old computer/s had small hard drives... well, they are gone unless I can find them out there somewhere... ...getting used to the new look; youtubes new look. I can at least maintain a clean, I mean clean look.

Did some editing

removing unintended toolbar problems

I like my browser set up my way but now and then I miss checking the box that I do not want to install a tool bar. Are some of these apps hidden, in any case I should be able to uninstall such apps. Despite help sites that say to go to the control panel etc, well I know how to install and uninstall programs been doing it for many years. I have been to your sites page for the uninstall details... well let me tell you that it is misleading in that the directions are just a lie, maybe not a lie but your tool bar still lives.

Goodwill shopping - cheese cutter

Goodwill shopping
   I shop Goodwill several times a week with Michelle, she drives. I look for useful cooking and kitchen stuff, Michelle buys candles, bottles stuffed with peppers and flowers from Italy, baskets, stuffed animals and the list goes on. She does look for pants for work and that is good. Today I missed the cheese cutter but Michelle did spot it and asked if I wanted it, at $2.50, yes was the answer. Has a cast iron base.

I like odd youtube videos

I like odd youtube videos and watch too many of them and have taken to a comment or many. The following video had a preponderance of positive comments and I wonder why. I get the idea of approving comments but I would not just post the ones that were for my view, good pro or negative comments would go forward and the trolls would be dumped. This video, regardless of its information, it seems, blocks trolls and quality negative comments... you? My comment was:  'They were bad, we were bad, etcetera. God had a plan and it went way wrong, I guess, you?' Will this pass the test?
Allowing/rejecting comments on youtube videos...

Note to self, prepare personnel and supplies

Note to self, prepare personnel and supplies for the men in black suits for the day they will rip my door/s down and take me away... ha ha... take me away or they just cut to the chase and blow me away, notches in guns are just so cool. Anyway lads collect as many black cats as possible, this needs to be a big one a really big one. When the bomb is done remember to hid the 1930's book 'Interesting Stuff to make for Boys'. Evidence like this book could put us away, pretty much... forever so stay vigilant comrades in arms. May peasants prosper they will be our slaves for a free earth we WILL CREATE!

"properly annealed in a digital kiln."

"properly annealed in a digital kiln." You can say this until the cows come home. This is not a guarantee, even though most people would think it is implicit in the statement. A properly performed annealing cycle is important but what may there be in the glass that would prompt the cows to stay away from home? Pretty simple; all materials as far as I know shrink and expand at different rates including different types of glass and their associated colors and taking this into account, you may have conflict with the clear of a certain type of glass and its colors associated with the clear. the colors will have COE's that will differ higher or lower than the clear thus setting up a conflict. The finished "properly annealed in a digital kiln" will have some stress in the glass. These pieces will be just fine down the road. However you may decide a piece of glass that lived just fine on the sideboard for many years until you decided that it would look even better in the south facing bay window. What would be wrong with this... you now have put the glass in a new environment where there may be higher and lower cycles of heat, stresses that may crack the glass even though it was annealed properly!

Afghan and US forces are now equally trained

So, depending on who you believe in our government we have trained Afghan army trainees up to speed or are not up to speed. I suddenly realized that the Afghan forces are read to go. Who started what does not matter. I believe that with the latest killings, by the Sarge, alleged killings, that the forces have been trained up to our level or down to the Afghan level thus we are equal... mission accomplished! What does one do when a job is done, uh, leave the job. We are not going to solve the tit for tat reprisals committed on both sides.
The Sarge proves that the mission is done...

once lost images

Lost and found images. Lost along with a computer crash and found where I put them, on the internet. I now have, finally, enough external memory capacity to avoid various situations where one can loose data.

UFO = ALIENS; therefore

UFO = ALIENS; therefore there is life out there, life that likes visiting an out of the way spiral arm of the Milky Way. Why these intelligent beings would visit us all the time is beyond me. I would think they would visit a sector of the Milky Way where all the hot spots are, such as the Bahamas of the Milky Way or a planet where gambling and it's pleasures are king plus one would not have to fly around in their UFO cloaked all the time. Everyone knows that cloaking is why one can not get clear images of these UFOs. Then there are all those lines n circles, they were put there by ancient Aliens for use as airports, right? This is logic at is best.
