In Case You've Wondered

My blog is where my wandering thoughts are interspersed with stuff I made up. So, if while reading you find yourself confused about the context, don't feel alone. I get confused, too.

If you're here for the stories, I started another blog: scratchingforchange.blogspot.com

One other thing: sometimes I write words you refuse to use in front of children, or polite company, unless you have a flat tire, or hit your thumb with a hammer.

I don't use them to offend; I use them to embellish.

A Few Million Here...A Few Million There ....

and pretty soon, we're talking about real money...sold at 6 cents a pound. 

That looks like a plan to me. I see tons of government vehicles just sitting in parking lots, and I think I could get more per pound. Of course, some bureaucrat would have to hoof it, instead of riding around on my dime...I really don't care. They could lose a few pounds.

Deja Vu All Over Again

I have a theory about deja vu. (No, I haven't experienced it in a long time.) It seems more logical to me, although those that like the idea of premonitions better might not feel the same.

My theory? The human brain is hard-wired to anticipate danger. With that hard-wiring comes the crunching of possibilities, the actual occurrences, and the results. Deja vu, is when the subconscious mental creation of possible events coincide with actual events. Call it a mental jackpot. Three sevens rolling up is rare, but possible. Subconsciously, the events were anticipated, and actually happened. The feeling the event happened before it only a reaction to an unusual sequence that coincided with anticipated results.

You can now return to your regularly scheduled thought process.

Age Brings Verbal Outbursts

After some frustrating moments, I told a group of men on the job today I should have hired some little girls...the bad thing is I meant it. What the hell happened to our youth? Between the pudginess, lack of any initiative and a terrible work ethic, there are too many young men that aren't men.

I told one of the long time, good hands I would enlist if we ever were involved with another major conflict. I elaborated and said I'd rather die fighting than expecting what was available for enlistment to help; and I didn't want to learn the foreign language of those that would find be easy pickings.

Burnout Symptoms

I looked them up; and I have all of them. Maybe I can get a grant to write about the events leading up to the burnout, how I managed to get grant money for studying burnout, and the months of leisure, while I pissed it all away on frivolous purchases, alcohol and vacations.
