Been feeling lately that I have been moving too fast.
Then I find out that I am moving over 66,000 mph just sitting here typing.
And that is just relative to our solar system.
The solar system travels at around 515,000 MPH within our galaxy.
Not sure how fast our galaxy is travelling thru the universe...
Think I am getting dizzy...

OHH NOES I checked and the Milky Way is travelling 1.3 million miles per hour thru the universe.

I need some Dramamine.

i just saw a nicorette ice mint lozenges commercial.

A dude sits down on a plane, a baby is crying, a kid starts bugging him from the seat in front and then a no smoking sign comes on above.
He looks mad stressed out.

Then they tell him how wonderful lozenges are for times when you would but can not smoke.
A fucking animated lozenge bursting with flavor comes flying through the air into his mouth

If I was a teenager i'd think that these lozenges were pretty cool

I thought that stuff was for quitting smoking and not for making it through a flight?


You have the pharma industry that the FDA gives zero fucks about pushing a product meant for cessation to people for when they otherwise can't smoke.

You have the same FDA with vaping:

1) FDA makes it ILLEGAL to market vaping products for cessation.
FDA also makes it illegal to tell the customer that vaping is safer than smoking.

2) Vaping industry has to advertise somehow. The FDA made their choices severely limited.

3) anti-vaping activists already know in advance that vaping companies can only market their product as an alternative "tobacco products"

anti-vaping activists attack vaping companies because they are NOT marketing the products for cessation or as a better alternative to smoking


They all lie ABOUT vaping but they will all lie FOR pharma.


That's all.

Oh fuck shit up the whales arse! Blow yer damned smug arsed bitch self to hell! I dinnea care ye had right o' rules on ye side. Yar, ye be correct technically. Agreed to that. What I nay agree to is yer smug pissy pualina self being such a twat as to make Geordie gals look smary nuns!

Nope, not gonna apologize. That felt too damn good. My blood pressure is thanking me as is my stress levels, my frustration level. To lend some clarity ... Aye, I was over on ECF. There was some question over a new user posting a contest on You Tube. Simple enough, they were hoping to get 100 subscribers.

Reckon it was Retarded & then Unclassy Bitch, *ahem* tag teamed on him over rules. Here' me pondering, "gee what's the idea here, what's so wrong in a guy asking for subscribers on a you tube channel reviewing vape stuff?"

So, Retard snidely posted the contest would not "float" I posted a cite of the site rules. Did not recall one about new members needing to have X posts prior to posting links. But this guy had not broken site rules in asking for subscribers and offering a little contest, ... possibly, at least not the main rules that i could see. Then Unclassy Bitch slams thread closed saying "I couldn't have said it better". So, I post a a report asking why moderator calls if you felt they were questionable, could not be questioned.

Well Classy Bitch then smugly posts the rules of Contests over there, in the locked thread. That further in my mind compounded the abusiveness demonstrated by her and Retarded one. Had I not filed a report, she would not have bothered posting the contest rules link. Gah! Talk of boiling the blood, I loathe such smug people.

Granted, she had the rules and was correct in enforcing them. That was not the issue though. What was the issue was the baiting, trolling that her and retarded did. That isn't "friendly" and or "jovial", or "conducive" for a "nice and pleasant membership". It is downright abusive, disgusting, immature.


Please remind me ... "hey dipshit!"

"Ja?"

"Stay the fuck off ECF."

What's wrong with Pie? o_O
Well, I have an s8+. It totally messed up my settings, changed my text tones, and I can't read responses because none of the themes are updated. Then there are 2 inches of unused space just to tell me I have no new messges. Plus all the new settings look like a child's keyboard. I'm not downloading another app just to be able to use my phone the way I've always used it. Finally found a theme set up that I can read my messages, which used up the battery.

I like seamless updates. The kind where you don't have to mess with your phone as long as you do when you buy a new phone. What a waste of space.

Curious... Who's your carrier?
Verizon.

I went googling the update and saw all kinds of people complaining. Some are worse off, by far.

I have it manageable for now, but I sincerely hope they send out another update soon. Just hated spending half my day off playing with a phone. !st world problems, yo.

That's why I still have a Note 4 plus rooted.... Stopped all updates. LOL, I'm still on Lollipop. I'll keep this one till it no longer will ring or can't get text messages anymore.

Been here before. Nice to see you again. Somehow I forgot you're not my friend. You corrupted my mind, stole my family and life. You're the goddamned devil causing internal strife.

There is more money being spent on breast implants and Viagra today than on Alzheimer's research.

This means that by 2040, there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge manhood -- and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.

They also allegedly have now these computer chips, what are supposed to use in car sensors to check and remind parents "hey dip-shit you're leaving a kid/critter in a hot car, wanna rethink that?"

Now, I remember our mom would leave us in a car. By the age we got left though at least two of us knew how to roll windows down. We also made a game of it. "Hey you, your turn go spy on mom." I'm sure that she knew we did that too, although she would never say.

Well I came here to say something. Here goes.

Murfulfurts win!! The Coluwompuns could not defeat them. Murfulfurts Dominate!

If you've ever been in a crowded public elevator you get an idea of what Murfulfurts are especially if you've had a hubcap full of Trinity beans.

*sneezes, cleans up*

Someone give me unrestricted and unconditional permission to get viciously dark and twisted in writing?

"Yeah, sure go ahead," I tell myself. It's a known fact that when a horror writer asks permission to get dirty with his writing, folks immediately flee the scene. Knowing this I'll grant myself permission, even if no one else is looking.

Well let me not get ahead of myself though. Wanted to check in & relate a few things. First, Family issue happened today. Mother in law is heading to C.A.M.C (Charleston Area Medical Center) they're world class heart folks there. Her mom has had open heart surgery, think it was a triple bypass. Well, she needed the local hospital today where they got her BP down got her insulin into her. The hope was that is was just her "sugar". Reckon there might be more than was thought, hoped.

Secondly, I might be coming out of a real bad writer's funk as of today. I'm not making any correlations with her mom's difficulties here. These are two separate things altogether. Her mom had difficulties even before I was part of my wife's life. That aside, I was looking over a few "useful sites for writers" today. Reckon I caught the Pam spraying folks, might have even figured out how they get so sneaky. I cannot reveal much regarding the story except this nutshell blurb.


Nobody Bothers You In The Country
W.I.P by George P. Ward

Nobody bothers you in the country. What happens when a demon seduces a young man as he lives in the country? No one bothers him not even as passers by continue to go missing in his hollow. Can he stop himself and the demon from plunging the world into darkness?

Edit: Cleaned up the blurb just a bit.

So if I'm not seen around too much. I'm either involved with family issues, or going to be busy cranking out 50-60 thousand words of a Draft. Then, I'm going to set it aside a month, pull it out and Revise it. After that I'll market it to agents, agencies. Then, back to finding another idea and cranking.

I now return you to your regularly scheduled scrolling and clicking. :)

P.S. No @The Cromwell, it isn't autobiographical, or maybe I'm just saying that as cover. ;)

Crud Cutter!

Add a snaking into to it. You possibly can use an old wire hanger if you don't have a proper snake. I just loved fixing backed up toilets in restaurants. There was once a young man that is said to have been institutionalized that would always shove a whole roll of paper into a toilet.

I caught him at it one day and took him in a gentle yet stern grip, walked him out past his father politely, on out of the place. Told his father to get out too, if they returned I'd call the law. They did return but any time the boy felt like going potty his old man went in with him and ensured he didn't get up to tricks.

One of the "finest" of Harrisonburg's SWAT/UC watched me take the boy out. He had a chuckle because the guy was twice my size. Told me he wouldn't want me pissed off at him because he knew I'd kick his ass but good. I chuckled and told him he qualified for the senior discount, so long as he continued "having my six" so well.

Our senior discount at that place was real good too, half off. Which meant our Tuesday senior's supper was something like two or three bucks instead of seven or eight, depending on what I told the 'gals' working the house. My mgr, Mrs. R appreciated that I had quietly took to shoulder a good bit of things for her. Standard Food used to double charge her. A few times of me calling up a large produce vendor out of Jersey, they caught on. "Sorry Standard Food, Ben got us our order for one third what you'd charge and it was here the same day, all fresh, all lovely stuff."

Truth is our order would be there in 15 minutes or less. They kept roving trucks out able to stop in anywhere, anytime. They had distro centers in most major cities at the time so, hop over load up, get to the stop. If they come by first it was to drop half the order, let us know the rest was on the way. Usually a second truck pulled in just the first left. I knew these *ahem* folks were good as gold. They cut everyone's throat but their customer's.

I could also run the short order if needed. Gimme the grill, I'll keep your customers clamoring for seconds, thirds. Loved rolling $1,000 profit hours. Doubt I could manage doing that anymore. Stuff has gotten way too expensive, add in cost of living across the board, well I don't think I'd see but maybe half that hourly even on a best day.

Why does USPS object so strongly to my classifieds on VU transactions?

I don't trade here much, being Aussie. But every time I send something to a VU member, it goes via Mars, and seems to land anywhere but the address on the label.

I send lots of stuff to the USA, but for some reason, if VU is involved, it goes pear shaped.

Possibly much the same that if I order wire from TEMCo, it is here usually before any finical transaction has cleared. And I use PayPal with them, it's just about as quick as handing over cashie monnies. They have locations in Maine, California, Texas. I've gotten wire shipped from all of these CONUS based locations, all with the same expedience.

My wife joked Monday around 1 PM EST (local I think it's -400 GMT if I'm recalling correctly), "Do they read your mind and just instantly ship you out wire?" She had brought in the mail with a package of three spools of wire from them. I had just ordered it Sunday evening. I used no special postage options, plain old USPS ground. This one came from California.

But @JuicyLucy 's mod she sent from Alaska took four days as was indicted on the tracking receipt. I know there's geography at play and some extra distance, still would seem if California can get here overnight, ... So, I ponder now my mind being bugged by TEMCo. That could be rather interesting given they do industrial wiring. My thoughts could traverse the wires all over the globe, oh wait. :)

What I originally came to say, I say.

Had a very disturbing nightmare last night. Watched a guy quite excellently skilled with a knife slash the fuck out of about six people. To make it worse my CPAP was sounding like his slashing so as I'm drifting out of this dream, I'm being pulled right back in. "Sluck, sluck, sluck," went his blade through flesh, bone. Not quite sure where I was located in the dream, or why I was there.

Had a similar dream once that involved looking through a guy's eyes as he strangled Geordie gals no further than 30 or so yards from a pub in Newcastle. Took me all of another night to get in that fucker's mind, give him a scare that had him setting as drooling human vegetable as the constables picked him up next morning. I had been talking over these wires with a lass what worked at a particular pub. She was not feeling safe until she saw him captured.

Folks can tell you a bunch of horse shit about mental powers, I don't. Don't believe in fucking around about that shit. It is very real and can be used effectively. Sometimes though a person needs to weigh out ethics. I knew this person was nothing save pure evil. Let him live with a mind so scrambled he would never again pull up his own skivies, or let him live and keep killing? Fuck his mind, I decided. My mate that worked that pub, pointed me to an article I think on the Independent's web site what outlined the constables searching for him, then another when he was picked up and put away.

People can also say coincidence happens. No, there is no such creature. People can say mental abilities is hogwash. Fine, explain then why quite a few of the world's government's will bust open a purse to finance training sessions, operations for the paranormal affairs, even if they do so black book.They obviously know hogwash it's not.

"Irish" "Gastropub".
Burger + 2 drinks = $50, pre-tip.
Yeah, it was a fancy burger, but daaaaayum. That's worse than airport prices. Worse than most nice hotel prices.

What I wanna know is this: What is she smiling at?

Jeez. My sister-in-law had a kid who wouldn't leave her boobs alone, even out in public, and she used to laugh about it like it was so damn cute. I don't think it's cute. I think even young kids should know a person's personal space is his or her own. I'd probably have popped the snot out of my son if he'd done that.

Maybe the kid is a child superstar and entitled to grope?

Or more likely he has figured our that if he gropes he will be put down so he can get into stuff.
Very few parents actually discipline their kids to teach them that some things are unacceptable behavior.

Once on a flight from FL I had a mother and her ~6 yr old sitting behind me.

This kid started hitting me with an alligator on a stick toy.
I asked the kid to stop and asked the mother to stop him and just got glared at.
So I grabbed the stick on the next swipe the kid made broke the stick in a few pieces and gave it back to the kid.
The kid wailed and cried and the mother started raising hell at me.
flight attendant showed up. listened to what happened and got verification from surrounding passengers.
The flight attendant asked me if I wanted to have law enforcement meet the plane when we landed.
The mother got all happy, then the flight attendant said it was to see if I wanted to press assault charges against the mother for letting her child physically assault me. I declined if the mother would shut up and mind her child.
Rest of flight was nice.
