Trump’s Peacemaking

Image
  Right Donald.  I’m sure that you can have conversations with Iran that will magically result in a complete and total resolution of hostilities after you have bombed the shit out of the country and murdered their leaders and civilians, including school children, when they did nothing to America to justify or provoke the attack.  You were proudly proclaiming to have decimated Iran militarily, economically and otherwise.  I’m sure the Iranians are really in the mood to release all hostilities and engage in peaceful negotiations with the United States of America.  No big deal, all is forgiven.  The time is now to let all bygones be bygones. 🙄  It is also a brilliant strategy to attempt to conduct productive negotiations and a resolution of hostilities in a situation where these negotiations must go according to your wishes within a time frame of 5 days in order for you to not follow through with your threats of conducting military strikes against Iran’s...

My Favorite App Game

Image
 This is the best app game I have ever played. 😄 Sometimes it takes me more than one or two tries to get through a level, but I can always eventually finish the levels with the number of moves allowed.  Whenever this ceases to be possible is when I stop playing app games.  Thus far, this has not happened with this app. 😄👍 I did pay for no ads, which was totally worth it!  It would pretty much be impossible to play with the ads.

My Favorite Cleaning Supply

Image
 My favorite cleaning supply that can be very helpful with lots of different cleaning tasks is the melamine sponge! 👏🙌 Lucky are they who are privy to the secret of its powers!  They are very inexpensive when purchased on Amazon in packages of 100.  I believe I am reflecting on my appreciation of the melamine sponge after it was very helpful today in making a cleaning task very easy.  A damp melamine sponge made the task of dust removal from a strange fabric covered light fixture very easy!  This required trips to the sink for rinsing, but who cares when you have a little cleaning wonder that can perform small miracles like no other cleaning supplies can.  https://a.co/d/07bTREoc

Words

Image
 I’m definitely a big fan of words.  Numbers and math aren’t my thing but I love words!  I can’t stop playing this game.  I just keep restarting and re-trying with each level if necessary until I succeed with the number of moves allowed.  At least maybe I will spend less time looking at news. 🤢

Iran Striking Back Here On US Soil

  I had been thinking about the possibility of Iran or Iranian allies striking back against the United States here in the United States.  I don’t know why people, including our president, would just assume that this doesn’t happen and can’t happen.  Why would anyone assume at this point in the 21st-century that the United States could launch an offensive and unjustified war against another country and not be at risk for any retaliation here in the United States.  You would think that 9/11 should’ve taught everyone that other countries can launch attacks against the United States here in the United States.  What does Iran have to lose when the United States is already launching and all out offensive attack against them?

Library Card Catalogs

Image
  I just thought about library card catalogs.  It’s pretty wild to reflect on the fact that when I was young, we had to go to libraries if we needed or wanted to find information about anything.  Then we had to look in card catalogs to see what books or other resources were available at the library.  This seems incredibly primitive in comparison to the way things are now.  I don’t know what’s more crazy.  The seeming primitiveness of the way things were when I was young, or the level of technology that now exists just a few decades later.   Could things really be so different within a single lifetime?!!  I know I have reflected on this before and I feel convinced that surely there must not have never been any other time in the history and evolution of humanity when things changed so quickly in such a short span of time.  Okay maybe except for the people during whose lifetime they figured out how to create fire.  I can imagine this was pr...

A Sesame Street Song

This song was around when my children were young.  I loved it as an adult. The audio sounds a little different, but this is the original video. https://youtu.be/MYXJlfcfFKU?feature=shared

Dollar Tree Book

Image
 While at the Dollar Tree,  I opened and was flipping through this book.  It looked like an interesting and nice book until I close the cover again and noticed the upper left corner.  🤢 Maybe the stories that people wrote were okay but I have zero trust in Fox News. 😒

Damn Scammers

 Damn scammers.  I had my first experience today of believing that I was communicating via email with a friend who was making a request for help only to discover that her email had been hacked and I was communicating with a scammer and not this friend.  People can really suck.

Happy Presidents’ Day

 Happy Presidents’ Day to Presidents, citizens and patriots of the United States of America! May our country always find its way way through times of darkness and light to fulfill its destiny as a nation of freedom, opportunity, and equality for all men, women, and children.  May the beacon of America’s light never truly be extinguished and may this light always shine its way toward a bright and promising tomorrow.  ❤️🤍💙 🇺🇸🙏  🎉 I’m sorry about your enlarged head, Mr. Trump.  This is what the AI image generator gave me.  I guess it has a sense of humor. 🫢😅

A Tree For All Seasons

 We can always count on the RGV to see trees for all seasons.  Alas I have no Irish ancestry.  I had hoped to find some to give me a reason to identify with and celebrate St. Patrick’s Day but I have non. 🌲 ☘️

Well Damn Again

Image
 An older couple just passed by in front of me.  As they were walking by, the man looked up to me and said something that I couldn’t understand and gave me a thumbs up signal. What the hell?  I have no idea what he said.  Maybe I need to stop appearing as though I am sitting in a red wagon and talking to my phone and probably laughing at my phone also. 😲 Can’t a person sit on a beach in a semi tropical location in February and find it to be more quiet?   Well bah humbug.  A person should be able to sit in a red wagon at a beach and talk to and laugh at their phone if they want to.  There, I moved to the top of the beach.  The waves aren’t loud enough here to drown out words spoken into a phone.   I have another thought.  “Dear high school typing teacher.  I live in the year 2026.  I really do, do most of my typing with my thumbs only.  For real. 😂  It is true though that I do also type the old-fashioned way on a com...

Well Damn

Image
Well, damn.  I’m sitting here at the beach in a sand chair next to my red beach wagon.  I like to believe that when I spend time at a beach by myself, I can just pick a spot and pretty much be invisible and unnoticed.  Well, a lady just walked up to me who was amused and told me that, from a distance, as she was walking down the beach, it looked as though I was sitting in my wagon.  Well damn, I didn’t know I was making a silly optical spectacle of myself. 🤪  And then I was talking into my phone, thinking no one could possibly hear me or what I was saying because of the wind and the sound of the waves, and I glanced to my right, and there was a lady standing right there very close to my wagon! 🫢 Why was next to me her chosen place to stop to stand?  Well, damn again.  A lot of people go to the beach here even in February.  When you sit by the water, there is a pretty steady occurrence of people walking by.

Ronald & Donald

Image
 “Donald Duck is here.  Donald Duck is here.  Ronald, Donald.  Ronald, Donald.  Donald Duck is here!” I’ll bet I am the only one that remembers this little song even though I am not the one who once sang it. 😁 🎤 🎶  Oh shit, it’s a Donald Duck theme.   As a side note, it’s tough to get old.  I just for a moment thought that Donald Duck was one of the Looney Tunes characters.  No, that was Daffy Duck.  I do remember that Donald Duck is a Disney character.  I was never really a fan of the Looney Tunes cartoons when I was young.  Maybe I would appreciate them more now.  I have no idea.  I do know that I am a fan now of Looney Tunes.  I mean the Looney Tunes of my own mind though. Normal is boring and being a bit crazy is a lot more interesting.

Bad Bunny

Image
 I never heard of Bad Bunny until the recent Grammy awards and then the Super Bowl.  This is my feeling about the Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show.  Puerto Rico is a territory of the United States, so why shouldn’t Puerto Rico ever have the opportunity to be included in American cultural events like the Super Bowl and to also do so in their own cultural style and language.  Contrary to what some would like to be the case, culture is an ever evolving thing and cannot always maintain its status quo from bygone eras.  New generations will bring about new cultural changes and norms.  Sorry, old timers who don’t like this, but you just can’t stop the evolution of humanity and culture. https://youtu.be/G6FuWd4wNd8?si=qAoKNUSi5e6s5ZSK

Words Of Former White House Attorney

It’s good to hear some words of truth and honesty from a former White House attorney, Ty Cobb, from Trumps first term.  The clip starts at 3:57.  If only everyone in this country understood and treated the truth of everything that is taking place for what it actually is.  https://youtu.be/XnJPrtFOfq8?si=eHqKJabu615wjjsd

Trump’s Presidency?

 What will happen with Donald Trump and his presidency now that the 3 million new pages of the Epstein files have been released.  It will be insane if the answer is nothing and things just continue along as they have been as if this is just one more outrageous thing added to Donald Trump’s years long list of outrageous things.  These are so not normal times.  Will there be a normal and appropriate response from the government to this new bombshell against Trump????

Secret Mall Apartment 🔑

Secret Mall Apartment.  This is a cool and interesting documentary. 🧊👍 It reminds me that there are lots of good things to watch instead of always looking for news about what is going on in our presently very messed up country. https://www.netflix.com/us/title/82677429?s=i&trkid=258593161&vlang=en&trg=cp
