Skank Clarification

Last night I was having a little fun on Facebook threads about the "Rapture".   Lots of comments back and forth about the pending end of the world that was supposed to happen today.  I have some great friends on Facebook and enjoy bantering with them.
~
But the problem with Facebook is the delay in comments.   So I called someone a "Skank", and two of my lady friends immediately thought I was disrespecting them.... because of the timing of my "Skank" comment.
~
Damn....
~
I don't need to be misconstrued by females on Facebook!  I get enough of that in person, sitting in the living room with my wife, Joanne, without getting into a jam with other women on FB.  
~
Why is it so easy to piss off women??? It's something that I'm wicked good at... and I don't practice it or anything.   I guess it's just a natural talent that I have.
~

For the record... I never called Denise or Liz a Skank.    The Skank above is the only Skank that I called a Skank.

Good Luck Tomorrow

Just in case tomorrow turns out to be Judgement Day, there are some things that I wish that I would have done in this life.... some things that I'm sorry about.... some people that I could have treated better... and some others whose ass I should have kicked when I had the chance.
~
But all in all, I have no regrets.  Took my chances.....sailed the boat out of the harbor and into the open ocean.   In the end, the real satisfaction in life is in helping people, and in seeing the beauty and harmony that lurks quietly all around us.
~
Course I'm not exactly done helping and harmonizing.   So if would be fine with me if that wacky minister touting our demise was dead wrong.... instead of us getting dead.
~
Good Luck Tomorrow.

Good luck to the MoaM too...It's been a great ride...and if the lights go out tomorrow at 6:00 PM, some of us belive in the 'group souls' theory...so...where ever we end up...we will all still be doing the same thing...How exciting is that! So stock up on the red, white and Canadian Club...'cause next weekend is the Memorial Day Holiday and we are overdue...*_*

Rapture Rumination

Apparently, some Christians are touting that the Rapture is about to happen... maybe this Saturday.  
~
The Rapture was never described in the Bible, but it is supposed to be an end of the world event where born again or chosen Christians will dramatically disappear and will be swept to a heavenly aferlife, leaving the sinners to bear the brunt of the gruesome destruction of the world.
~
I don't buy it.
~
It just seems too wacky and complicated.
~
When the world ends, we will probably all go together in a cataclysmic disruption.  God can always sort things out in the afterlife for whatever exotic punishment we require.
~
But if the Rapture does occur, I'm sure that I will be around to put a Blog post together about it.... and I'm equally sure that most of my Peeps will be here to read it.

Arnold Phucked UP

The indiscretion by Arnold Schwarzenegger, in fathering an illegitimate child ten years ago, has struck a resonate chord with my wife Joanne and a lot of my female Facebook friends.

~

As in... they are really pissed off and are calling him names that normally would emanate from the mouths of truckdrivers and bricklayers.

~

As much as I like Arnold... and I do admire the way he has mastered so many areas that he has entered... bodybuilding, acting, business and politics.... it seems that he has crossed a big time taboo line. 
~
Knocking someone up, other than your wife, just isn't cool.   It stirs a reaction deep within the psyche of females that is freaking frightening.

~

I'm positive that I never knocked up anybody but Joanne... three times.

~

But  Arnold is truly fucked.

And think about the kid. His life forming event is referred to as an "indiscretion". A little better than being called a mistake, but not much.

Speakin' fer thems that feels an extraordunary need to sires some offsprouts, some of us gots that primal itchin to spreads our seeds and water it were the ground lay tilled for plantin. Its a burden, havin' to bring pleasure to as many as I does, and to see that my pleasurizin' is available fer thems that come after me, should that cryo freezin' thing not work out. And the insensitive among yiz, bein' the simple stump-trained filth of the lower breeds of folk, well yiz might take a minute to considerate that Arny might very wella been compassating for his poor English verbalating. somes gets theys point across best via the gentle whisper of the ole hickery love stick. Plain and simple.

Bored

Donald Trump pulled out of the President's race.
~
Arnold Swarzenegger fathered a child with his staffer ten years ago.
~
The Queen of England is visiting Ireland.
~
Are you as bored as I am?   I guess we could all key in on that French Politician who jumped a room maid in a New York luxury hotel.
~
They say that no news is good news. 
~
So maybe I'll have to focus on my favorite subject.... which would be me.  What am I doing?  How am I feeling?  Why am I saddled with the burdens of a Mountain of a Man?
~
Actually, even those intriguing topics offer no real interest this morning.
~
That's how bored I am.

MOAM Agenda

Lots of stuff on the agenda for next week.
~
Taxes.
~
Back on the lose weight regime.
~
Our Pennsylvania Nanepashemet Telecom initiative.
~
Splitting stone for the dry stack stone wall.
~
Builidng a wood stacking shed and a trash barrell shed.
~
And just the run of the mill Mountain of a Man stuff that us MOAM's do. 
~
The weather outlook is rainy, it but most of the stuff will get done. 

More FreshAyer

Heading out to FreshAyer this rainy Sunday morning with the GrandKids.
~
We're on the back nine  now, and in some ways, it is harder to take.because this is the time that didn't have to happen.   It would be over now if it wasn't for a bit of lying and deceit on the part of those whose karmic reward is yet evolving. 
~
If you think that I'm talking about you, then I probably am.

PS
When we got to the Camp, Craig :LoConte was already thete with Ryan.    I had forgotten what a class act Craig is, since he's been living in New Rochelle for so long, but after two seconds, it was all back to me... just a hell of a human being.
~
Even with a little depressing news, it was a great visit.

Stone

For some reason, I've become fascinated with stone walls lately... specifically dry fitted fieldstone walls.  Maybe it's because of all of the ledge that is found around the Sundance house.  Somehow, I want to stay even.

~
Anyway... it is far easier to split fieldstone than I had previously imagined.   You just drill a couple of 5/8 inch holes with a hammer drill and a masonry bit, insert a steel wedge with a widening wedges on both sides called feathers (feather and wedge technique) and tap these contraptions in place until the stone cracks and then splits.

~

A few blows with the masonry hammer to dress up the stone, then it is ready to be fitted into a wall.
~
A slow, painstaking process.
~
But just my speed.

Please Give Me a Break

The League of Women Voters just ran an ad on WCVB, Boston Channel 5 intimating that Republican Senator Scott Brown was voting to hurt a little Black girl by voting to help the Polluters.
~
Cut the shit Scott.
~
Leave that little girl alone.
~
You should be ashamed.
~
Thank god for the League of Women Voters for objectively pointing out to me what a bad person you are.  Keep of the good work, Women.   Let me know if any other politicians are harassing the little Black kids.

Stranger Than Fiction

I'm writing this post because I want to remember something that happened to me today, on Mother's Day, that is stranger than fiction.   You couldn't make this shit up.   And I'm not even going to tell you what happened.  It's  for me to remember when I finally  write my overdue book
~
Holding back on the book until I have enough money to hire the legal help that I will need to fend off all of the libel and slander lawsuits.

Extension

I did what I do everytime I start running again.... overextended myself and pulled a calf muscle.  So it's back to the Bike for a while.   Maybe I'll go up to North Conway and get on the Mountain Bike.  That wouldn't be overextending would it?
~
Nice visit at FreshAyer yesterday.   Interesting prospects.   Ryan continues to glean the best from every situation.   Not once have I ever seen him wallowing in self-pity, or whining about his situation. 
~
He has a forward looking outlook and has taken some very positive insights from FreshAyer.
~
When this is over, it will seem like it never happened.  We have all been changed... but maybe in a good way.   Scatch that.... Undoubtably in a good way.  Ryan will take his energy, drive and positive outlook and rebuild a stronger and thriving life for himself and his kids.  It will be a good restart, in the right direction.
