This is the generic blog category. It’s where pretty much everything goes.
This is pretty big news. I called it. A sneaky takeover is approaching. It doesn't happen often in the real world that a race for the leader sees the winner fall from first to third place, but it might happen this year. Microsoft was first out of the gate with an open system that allowed anybody to make and sell the hardware, and let Microsoft...
Is it possible idiots have a leader role model and permission to be assholes. Black Friday will be the country's worst in history. Is it possible, ribs may lead to military Marshall law? I remember reading our Prime Minister can declare Marshall law, but a president cant House swapping weeks Maybe Ted would want to be an extra Probably not 20...
I've always been fascinated with people watching. Seeing smiles on faces energizes me like sunlight energizes Superman. I especially like seeing different cultures and how the react tio the same things, and observing different towns and communities and noticing the subtle differences. Sometimes it's the little things, like the change of a font...
It seems natural that everyone who blogs and perhaps, who breathes, should have some form of political opinion about the 2016 Election. People who have lived through more than one in their interest years has to agree this one is unlike anything we've experienced in the United States, and more than any other, It has drastically educated half the...
I'm a Canadian with a television, which means I have to pay attention to the politics of the USA. It's always a crazy show, but the year of 2016 is the craziest in my lifetime, if not in history. There are so many conspiracy theories floating around, mostly because the campaigns are so crazy, we really can't believe it wasn't planned... or even...
I learned the term Micro Expressions from TV a few years back when Tim Roth starred in Lie to Me. A crime drama where his team used facial expressions to figure out if people meant what they were saying. I believe that I have been using that concept, without knowing the name, for many years to detect emotions and reactions in the faces and...
When I talk about being obsessive, people tend to jump to the conclusion I mean Obsessive-compulsive (OCD) and quickly correct them. Recently, I started to reevaluate whether I am OCD or not, because the more I obsess over it, the more the lines become blurred. The photograph above shows my obsessive collection of the center cardboard from...
Everywhere I look today, I have people who's opinions I care about, and I have to decide which ones to confess to. Which ones can I tell "I've been bad this year". I just told my closest female friend about the addiction. I don't want a reply today. I don't want to see how I hurt her. I'll take that one when I'm...
There are a few places in life people need to wait. Some lines you can avoid, or do without. Some lines you can schedule and return at less busy times. It's hard to avoid the waiting room at a hospital. I suppose the rich can pay for better treatment in some cases, but I like to believe we're all fairly equal in the emergency room. That's nor to...
It's Monday, and that's a bit later than usual for me to watch this past weekend'd Saturday Night Live. It's been a pretty consistent Sunday morning ritual, but toady I was a day late. The first thing I noticed when they said Big Dick and it really looked like he wasn't supposed to, but that may just be me, over analyzing the micro expressions....
A funny thing happened to me recently when I was involved in a text conversation with a friend of mine. I was laying in bed, chatting with a friend using Google Hangouts on my cell phone. At some point it occurred to me the typing on the cell phone was a little tedious, but I didn't have a full keyboard or computer near the bed at that moment, so...
there is a moment when you're playing the card game HEARTS, and you think... awww.. fuck it, lets go for the lot. You try to get every single trick, knowing if you miss just one, you'll get a huge score penalty. I believe there are many moments in life just like that. The moment where you've peaked, and it's all downhill from here, so you give...
Over the past few years, I have not been keeping my blog up to date. My posts were few and far between. During this time however, I was still writing, and creating new video content. I was just not sharing any of it publically. I have kept a journal of sorts since I can remember. My first memory of writing during a crying session, was one of the...
Some religions believe that miracles happen every day, and things we would never believe are divine, we call a coincidence.I call them signs from the Universe that somebody is paying attention. This evening, I was watching TV and the commercial for the new series of X-STANCE or whatever it's called. The first 1/3 second is half a body running on...
Right now, we still have an official war on drugs. We have to show some progress publically now and them arresting criminals. Showing arrests is important. In some ways, more important than actually arresting people. We need the public to know we occasionally have a successful arrest.It seems we're actually OK with criminals getting high,...
I watch the show, because it's just different enough, and watchable. I'm sad they turned a bit mean. We are trying to live in a world where we are as aware of public shaming of strangers online, as mugger jokes or Retard humourWhen I watch any prank that embarrasses people and laughs at them, I'm uncomfortable watching. Some pranks I'm ok...
The current battle I have within my head every time I smoke even a teeny tiny bit of weed, is whether to come clean, and admit it. To confess to using drugs, or at least enjoying an occasional inspiration puff. I have a vaporizer, and now and then, I inhale a breath or two. Less than a pet's worth, and then I sit down and write. Some of my...
There is a new CSI reality show on TV this season. It breaks from the traditional CSI, mainly in that they do absolutely no CSI work. They are FB! 's CYBERCRIMES Division, but they go a little overboard on what cases consistent CYBER., at least so far. I' ve blogger my opinion elsewhere on the Pilot. Today I started thinking about what a CSI...
My brain is always active. Sometimes, they call it obsession, and I'm on medication to reduce it, but other times, it's just imagination. When I watch a TV show or a movie, my brain is usually thinking on multiple levels. Sometimes it's distracting, especially if the show is boring. Other times it's fun, because I imagine all sorts of...
I started watching last nights new CSI series with no expectations. I was curious at most, but didn't spend any time pre thinking about it. I just turned it on and watched the first scene. A child abduction. The first thing I noticed was the father of the child sleeps in his glasses. I even paused and rewound to establish he really was...
News story: SONY pulls THE INTERVIEW from it's schedule. It will not release it on Christmas day because there is fear that North Korea may retaliate. The film is a comedy mocking their leader, and describing a plot to kill him. A plot not to unrealistic, and probably not far from the truth. The spy world has been known to use celebrities in the...
I go to a lot of places where artists show their work. Not so much official art galleries, but smaller marketplaces and shows. Festivals and public displays where artists rent small booths and try to sell their paintings or jewelry or other hand made work. I enjoy these events and like the idea that I often get to talk directly to the artist...
Apple does a few things really well, but one of the biggest impacts on the cell phone world, is the way they've managed to make getting the newest iPhone an obligation of your status. Of course, not every iPhone user lines up to be first, and many don't even bother with the new release at all, but we're all still aware of the concept. New iPhone...
Pauseandblog: Survivor Pauseandblog. A word I made up for when I pause, and blog about the TV show I am watching, before I see how it turns out. I just paused on Survivor because on player in the minority said something smart and creative and whether or not he follows through, it's still genius that deserves some attention. Whether you follow the...
Bathroom blogging It's been a few days since I sat down and started writing again. I had a good streak there for a while, but without obsession or guilt driving me, it's easy to ignite and do without. The interesting side effect of blogging daily is that it changes how you view life at least a little. Ad I observe the world around me, I...
Paging Doctor Blog Since I don't do too many back to back appointments these days, O don't find myself waiting in cars with time to share as much as I used to. These days, one of the only blank time periods I experience is when I'm in a waiting room, awaiting a doctor. So I blog. I gave not been keeping up with the new hobby daily as I promised...
It's Thanksgiving Monday as I write this, and I've taken it as a day off from work, so I am treating it like a Sunday. Typically Sunday has been the day if the week I watch some TV. I try my best to keep a balanced diet of television variety, which includes hour long dramas, but also non fiction shows from the higher network channels....
One of the issues I've had as an obsessive mind that overthinks every scenario of life, is regarding the idea of receiving gifts. I have very few memories of receiving gifts, where I enjoyed the process. That is one serious imaginary memory deficit. I'm not saying I don't enjoy getting gifts, but I always hate the way I react. It stresses me to...
I am about to watch the third episode of Forever. Before I start with the traditional dead body reveal scene, I wanted to acknowledge the overall change I'm witnessing in the new series television dramas this year. At least in the few I've watched so far, they seem to be throwing us the character back stories right away. They feel rushed to get...
I watched the series premier of Scorpion last week, and blogged about how I was concerned that the time may have passed for the nerd drama> Too much of the audience knows the tech is fake these days, and it spoils their enjoyment of the show when they do silly stuff. In the week since then, I have returned to that thought a few times in...
