GOP Debate Debacle

 So the MOAM stayed up late last night to watch the GOP debate.  I would have been better off hanging on FaceBook and talking trash to trigger Libbies.

It was that freaking bad!!

Grown adults interrupting each other, insulting each other.... rudeness, obnoxious behavior.

Reminded me of cafeteria lunch break at Eastern Jr. High School.

If we have to choose between these petty and classless candidates, it seems that Trump was justified in not showing up.

The MOAM thinks that DeSantis won the debate.  Not necessarily a big win.  Jerry Springer would be proud.

Trump is Biden His time

 So Donald Trump borrows money from Banks in New York, pays it back, but apparently he created fraud because he overstated the value of the properties to the lending banks????  

Do I have this right? 

 Major Lending institutions with their massive due diligence operations make a deal with Trump, give him loans, and he pays them back..... 

 And that is bad how????  Now a Lefty Judge is saying he must dismantle his business... over this????  Not a Good move.

It is insulting to the 75 million voters who supported Trump.  It is turning them into pissed off, rabid devotees of the guy.

This is a gift to Trump.  With his PR ability, he will turn this situation into campaign gold.  Note to Dems.  If you have to screw your head into the ceiling to try to get something on Trump, you are really screwing yourself.

Put Biden against Trump.  Let them duke it out in front of the American Voters.  That is the only way that you can hope to stop Trump.  This sideshow stuff is suicide to an effort to defeat Trump.  It only makes him stronger.

Just sayin.....

Google It!


So if you have a question, just freaking Google it.  Don't go bothering the MOAM with stupid queries all the time.  Who do you think I am???  Alexa?

Google is in fact the great equalizer. All you need to do is ask the right questions. You don't need advisors, or a library, or anything else that used to keep knowledge to only the few. So we are Celebrating Google's 25th Birthday: A Journey of Innovation and Transformation

Nanepashemet Peeps! Today, we gather around this pathetic Blog post to celebrate a momentous occasion in the ever-evolving landscape of technology and the World Wide Web....... Google's 25th birthday, a milestone that speaks volumes about the enduring spirit of innovation and transformation.

In the spirit of Nanepashemet, where we connect with nature and embrace the wisdom it imparts, let us embark on a journey through the digital wilderness, tracing the footsteps of Google from its humble beginnings to its current towering presence.

The Roots of Innovation

Like the ancient trees that form the backbone of our forests, Google's roots can be traced back to a dorm room at Stanford University in 1998. Larry Page and Sergey Brin, two visionary students, started a journey that would forever change the way we interact with information.

Much like our ancestors who relied on the land for sustenance, Larry and Sergey understood the importance of organizing the vast wilderness of information on the internet. Their innovative search engine, initially named Backrub, would later become Google, a term inspired by the mathematical term "googol," representing the infinite possibilities of the digital world.

Cultivating the Garden of Knowledge

At Nanepashemet, we understand the delicate balance required to cultivate a bountiful garden. Google, too, has tirelessly tended to its digital garden, nurturing it with algorithms, relevance, and a commitment to user experience. Its search engine has become the backbone of our digital lives, guiding us through the forest of knowledge, helping us find answers to our questions, and connecting us with people and ideas from all corners of the globe.

Over the years, Google has not only refined its search capabilities but has diversified its offerings. From Google Maps that allow us to navigate the world, to Google Docs that enable collaborative creation, and YouTube that has given voices to countless individuals, Google has spread its branches far and wide, providing us with tools to explore and express ourselves.

The Power of Adaptation

In the wilderness of technology, adaptability is key to survival. Google has proven its resilience time and again by evolving to meet the changing needs of its users. The shift to mobile computing, the rise of artificial intelligence, and the increasing importance of data privacy have all been challenges that Google has faced head-on, adapting and innovating to stay relevant and trustworthy.

Moreover, Google has demonstrated a commitment to sustainability, echoing the Nanepashemet ethos of respecting and preserving the natural world. The company has pledged to operate on 100% renewable energy and has invested in environmental initiatives that benefit not only its operations but also the planet.

A Beacon of Knowledge

As the Nanepashemet Peeps used to rely on the stars to guide them in the wilderness, so do we rely on Google to illuminate the path through the digital cosmos. It has become more than just a search engine; it's a beacon of knowledge, a source of inspiration, and a facilitator of human connection.

As we celebrate Google's 25th birthday, let us reflect on the journey it has taken and the impact it has had on our lives. Let us honor the spirit of innovation and transformation that drives it forward, and let us remember that, like the natural world around us, the digital landscape is constantly changing and evolving.

David McCallum - Super Spy or Dork Doctor

 Just heard of the passing of David McCallum, who played the dorky doctor on NCIS.  I first knew him as the super cool international spy, Ilya Kuriakin on the Man for U.N.C.L.E when the MOAM was in junior high school.

Quite a juxtaposition of roles, I enjoyed him immensely in both and will miss him.

RIP David McCallum.


Appreciating the Clicks

 Veteran Nanepashemet Peeps will notice a clear change lately to the Nanepashemet Blog.  

It is Ads... Lots of them.

Why would the MOAM share this coveted square foot of cyberspace with product ads you may ask????

There is an excellent reason.

Google has requested that I place these ads because of the phenomenal  growth of this site, and the MOAM has graciously assented..... provided that every time a Peep clicks on an ad, Google chips in to the enormous daily cost of publishing this remarkable Blog.

Plus, the ads have to be as tasteful and cool as Nanepashemet.....

So I haven't sold out to the MAN.  Conversely, the MAN has agreed to pay to be a part of this impressive yet sometimes repugnant Nanepashemet Blog.

All a Peep has to do now is CLICK onto a couple of these ads when visiting Nanepashemet.  You don't have to buy anything, although I have seen some wicked great stuff flash through that is worth buying.

MOAM appreciates each and every ad CLICK.

Time for the Chinese Loan Application Again - Federal Government Shutdown

 So before the Main Stream Media propaganda starts in with their panic stricken handwringing about the looming Federal Government  Shutdown.... we here at Nanepashemet feel compelled to bring some pre-emptive facts about the situation.

Here's What You Need to Know.

What is a Federal Government Shutdown?

A federal government shutdown occurs when Congress fails to pass legislation that funds government agencies and programs. As a result, many non-essential government functions cease to operate. This can happen when Congress cannot agree on a budget or when there are disputes over specific policy issues.

Why Does it Matter to Us?

You might wonder why a federal government shutdown in Washington, D.C., could affect us here while reading this pathetic Nanepashemet Blog. The truth is that the federal government plays a crucial role in our daily lives. Here are some ways it could impact us:

  1. National Parks: If you were planning a visit to nearby national parks, such as Minute Man National Historical Park or Lowell National Historical Park, you might find visitor centers closed, and services reduced during a shutdown.

  2. Federal Workers: Many residents of our town work for federal agencies or as contractors. During a shutdown, they may face furloughs or delays in receiving paychecks, which can ripple through our local economy.

  3. Social Services: Programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid could be affected. This could impact the elderly and those in need within our community.

  4. Infrastructure Projects: Federal funding is essential for infrastructure projects like road repairs and upgrades. A shutdown could delay these much-needed improvements in our area.

How Can You Prepare?

While we hope that our elected officials in Washington, D.C., can come to an agreement to avoid a shutdown, it's always good to be prepared. Here are a few steps you can take:

  1. Stay Informed: Keep an eye on the news and follow the progress of federal budget negotiations. Being informed will help you anticipate potential disruptions.

  2. Financial Planning: If you or a loved one works for a federal agency, consider setting aside some savings to cover essential expenses in case of a shutdown-related delay in pay.

  3. Community Support: Reach out to neighbors and community organizations. Together, we can provide assistance to those who may be most affected by a shutdown.

  4. Local Alternatives: Explore local alternatives for services that might be affected. For instance, if a national park is closed, consider visiting one of our beautiful state parks or exploring local historical sites.

The Bottom Line

Jack Shit is Gonna Happen. Republicans will blame Democrats... Dems will claim the sky is falling.... Federal workers get some unpaid time off, then get reimbursed with back pay in a week or so.... and the entire farce will repeat itself the next time that the Feds run out of money. And the American Debt Ridden Financial Juggernaut will roll down the tracks till the next stop.


Jets Beat the Pats...Ten Years Ago


 J. E. T. S.  JETS JETS JETS.

After the game yesterday, when the New England Patriots beat the New York Jets for the 15th consecutive time, the MOAM texted Rich Berliner, my old Wireless Friend from NJ.  I noticed that the last time I had texted him was last year where I left message of  "14 in a Row".  So I typed "15 in a Row" and almost immediately got a phone call from Rich.  "What are you trying to do?  Bust my Balls???"  Rich is very perceptive.

The New England Patriots' Unstoppable Streak: 15 Consecutive Wins Against the New York Jets

In the world of sports, there are rivalries that define an era, matchups that leave an indelible mark on the history of the game. One such rivalry that has captured the attention of NFL fans for over a decade is the New England Patriots vs. the New York Jets. What makes this rivalry even more intriguing is the astonishing streak of victories that the Patriots have amassed, beating the Jets a remarkable 15 times in a row. In this blog post, we'll delve into the Patriots' incredible dominance over the Jets and explore the factors contributing to their historic winning streak.

The Genesis of the Streak

The Patriots' winning streak against the Jets began in September 2013, and since then, it has become one of the most enduring streaks in modern NFL history. To put it into perspective, the streak has spanned multiple coaching staffs, quarterback changes, and roster turnovers for both teams. But through it all, the Patriots have maintained their grip on this rivalry.

Key Moments in the Streak

  1. The Brady Era: Tom Brady, the legendary quarterback, played a pivotal role in the Patriots' dominance over the Jets during the early years of the streak. His ability to read defenses and make precise throws consistently put the Patriots in a position to win.

  2. Bill Belichick's Genius: The Patriots are known for their adaptability and in-game adjustments, largely thanks to their legendary head coach, Bill Belichick. His strategic brilliance has been a thorn in the Jets' side throughout the streak.

  3. Defense Wins Championships: While the Patriots' offense often gets the spotlight, their defense has been equally crucial. Over the course of the streak, the Patriots' defense has consistently found ways to stifle the Jets' offense and create turnovers.

  4. Mental Edge: There's a psychological aspect to the streak as well. When one team has defeated another 15 times in a row, it can create doubt and uncertainty in the minds of the players, making it even more challenging for the losing team to break the streak.

As the streak continued, both the Patriots and the Jets underwent significant changes. Tom Brady left the Patriots to join the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and the Jets went through several quarterback changes and coaching transitions. Despite these changes, the Patriots' dominance over their divisional rival remained unshaken.

Breaking Down the Numbers

Let's take a look at some key statistics from the Patriots' 15-game winning streak against the Jets:

  • Total Points Scored: Patriots 429 - 244 Jets
  • Average Margin of Victory: 11.73 points
  • Closest Game: Patriots 27 - 25 Jets (October 16, 2014)
  • Longest Winning Streak in NFL History: Patriots 15 - Jets 0

The Future of the Rivalry

As with any streak, there's always speculation about when it might end. However, predicting the end of this historic run is a daunting task. The Patriots' commitment to excellence and their knack for reinvention, along with the Jets' determination to turn the tide, ensures that this rivalry will continue to captivate NFL fans for years to come.

The New England Patriots' remarkable 15-game winning streak against the New York Jets is a testament to their dominance, adaptability, and unwavering commitment to success. While the streak may eventually come to an end, it will forever be etched in the annals of NFL history as one of the most impressive and enduring runs of victories in the sport. As fans, we can only watch in anticipation to see how this rivalry unfolds in the years ahead, but for now, the Patriots stand tall as the undisputed kings of this AFC East showdown.
