It's been a while since I've written anything all that much meaningfulto anybody except myself, so yesterday I set out looking at images totry and spark whatever little creativity in this respect I possess. So surfing I went, and came up with this image of a cowboy on a horse,standing in the middle of  nowhere looking off into thedistance;off the Wikipedia website. The image of this man in this plainenvironment made me wonder how simple life really was back in the daysof America's infanc...

I've seen many data charts and reports of this and that regarding global warming. The rise in sea level, the melting otf the polar ice caps, and biomes moving from here to there. Who really cares? The planet will survive, even if the financial structure of the world is forced to reconstruct. One thing I do know, if this picture depicts global warming, turn up the heat baby!

More than one person has coined me as a misogynist on various posts throughout the joeuser community. Ironically, all of these people are women. I am not certain whether or not these people are qualified to characterize me as such, but somehow they have gathered opinions from my various posts that often concern the relationships between men and women in society. While I can accept their opinions that I may act like a misogynist, I do hold resentment as being labeled as one by a layman. ...

Well, in 9 short hours I get the opportunity to play lawyer again. Honestly, I really appreciate some of the more informal courts we have in America because the protocol is not so rigid, and any layman such as myself gets the opportunity to represent ourselves. Later on this morning, I will make my appearance in front of the California Unemployment Appeals Board in the case of: Lou Ron vs New World Industrial Coatings In the past one and a half weeks or so I have studied the pe...

This is my first attempt at doing anything like this, so please don't be to harsh on me with your criticism Theme: “The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed." - Albert Einstein ........................................................................................................

I suppose the world is so complex today that many people have a difficult time coping or keeping up. It's not like anybody wants to focus on their everyday issues or what have you, but rather head to the local mental health care provider to prove there is something wrong with them. Whatever. Paxil is one of those drugs that suits all of the disorders listed in the title. Ironic. A drug that treats depression also treats anxiety and just about anything else; the fix-all drug. Anyhow,...

Yes, its true! Seven years yesterday my drivers license was suspended for my first and only DUI. It's been a hell of a 7 years getting around as a construction worker without my DL, but its over! Yes, my idiotic, self-imposed 7 year sentence has come to an end, and now I'm off to the DMV to see exact ally what hoops I need to jump to in order to get that ever illusive piece of plastic back into my wallet.

My life has been so very complicated and full of change lately, that I really have not had neither the time nor the desire to blog. Depression hits everybody at some point or another. When I get depressed, I realize my poor-me conclusion that I'll never die, and am forced to endure the drugery of everyday life forever. Bleak, I know, but eventually it passes. Surfing YouTube a bit, I came across this video posted by many, and was unable to determine the creator. It's funny as hell. Was ...

Jen has made a comment(s) in reference to me on her blog, yet has chosen to blacklist me, devoiding any rebuttle. So here I simply have to say: Jen, you once referred to me as an ass-licking sheep; then apologized; then took it back. I'm standing up here, because you're to cowered to let me do so where you commented using my name. I referred to you as a British lunatic. Why, not because you are British, but because you are in my opinion a nutcase. This is not an ethnic slur, but simply ...

What on earth is the purpose of our children having a cell phone in the classroom. For that matter, do teachers need phones in the classroom as well? We send our kids to school to learn, not to chat on the phone. We pay our teachers to do a job, teach our children, not to worry about who is trying to get ahold of them during class time. As I see it, cell phones are little less than a nuisance in the classroom. A distraction that disrupts both the teachers ability to effectively teach, a...

I've been working installing pool tables again for a couple of weeks. It's not really my top skill, but the pay isn't all that bad. Anyway, I'm the junior guy on my team; the senior guy being a friend of mine of a few years. He's a great guy, but he's one of those 28 year-old men people that thinks he knows everything. It serves to mention that he really is very good, and is well skilled, but sheesh. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind being directed, but this guy has to tell me not only w...

What Christmas is for me. First and foremost Christmas, or Christ's Mass, observed on December 25, is the day that I traditionally observe the birth of Christ, my Lord and Savior. About two millennia ago, on a cold night in the city of Bethlehem an old testament prophecy was fulfilled when the Christ child was born of the Virgin Mary by the helping hand of her husband Joseph. Around the surrounding area an Angels voice resonated the birth of the Christ child to the land surrounding ...

Well, I walked in Monday evening to set up my account, for the 5 remaining classes I have to complete before my drivers license is returned to me. An ordeal that began in January of 2000. I walked into this place, that was unlike the last I was enrolled in, a private institution. Greeted by a charming and witty woman, who really bent over backwards to accommodate me in so many ways. Anyhow, she made it so my fist class began the following day on Tuesday, and my final class will be Janua...

Well, it seems as the President of NWIC, Dave the moron strikes yet again. My ex-direct superior Dan, the most skilled painter in the company, was let go on Monday. Dan, NWICs Executive Field Officer, has been a commercial painter in excess of 25 years, and IMHO is one of the best I've seen in my 15 years. The excuse he was given was the company could not afford to pay him. Well, I don't see how this can be. If any of you know how Public Works and prevailing wage jobs go, all journeyme...
