#PrayforBelgum - #PrayForPeace

I wrote yesterday on howAnonymouswas taking onDonald the Stumpand his prejudicial campaign for the Republican Presidential Nomination.I was applauding their efforts and even asked viewers,"To help Anonymous as they encourage supporters to target the website for the real estate magnate’s Chicago luxury hotel, TrumpChicago.com, on April 1 as part of their #OpTrump campaign."
I applaud their efforts to take on idiot politicians like Trump,political terrorists like ISIS,and their efforts to awaken the World to the fact that evil,in which ever form it takes,needs to be thwarted in its beginnings.Then I heard what happened in Brusselsand I became enraged.  Why couldn'tAnonymoushave warned the country ofBrusselswhat was coming?Then I cool down to realize,ISISwould not be around if it did not have at least some intelligence on the computer age.Other evil entities have confused authorities in the past to become so powerful,that they scared the average person, just by mentioning their name. Example:TheZetas Cartel of Mexicoused Walkie-talkies to communicate when they knew government agencies would be monitoring all landlineand cell phone calls.They became prominent in theDrug Worldby going back to an older technology.I am not sure if any Government who knew about the attacks on Brussels,would have warned them ahead of time.Example:This is going way back,but I believe it is true today as it was back in World War Two.Britain had cracked the Germans Enigma Code Machine.One of the first messages they deciphered,by British Intelligence,was the forthcoming ofBombingof the City of Coventry. Winston Churchill knew that if he had evacuated the city before the bombing, Germany would know they had cracked their code. Instead he let all those people be killed so the Germans would think the Enigma Machine was unbreakable. Right or wrong?So,if a Government today new of the bombings in Brussels,and had warned them ahead of time,ISISwould know they had a leak. But I have no doubt that ifAnonymouswould have known the attacks were coming they would have done all they could to stop it.Or I could be just fooling myself.Hoping there really are good people in this World watching over us, fighting evil.One thing a Hacker cannot Hack at the time of writing this Post.I know they are working on it though.No one can Hack the Human Mind.And the best way to communicate,still to this day,is by word of mouth.By word of mouth,with their own little code,so eavesdroppersand lip readers do not suspect a thing.
This is,"Hours after a grisly terror attack rocked Brussels' airport and a downtown metro stop, #JeSuisBruxelles and #JeSuisBrussels were trending on Twitter in a sign of solidarity with victims."Jim Hauenstein,
And,
"Others used the hashtags #PrayforBelgum and #PrayForPeace to offer their condolences."- Story by Kim Hjelmgaard, Delphine Reuter and John Bacon for USA TODAY - That is my story I am sticking to it!
Please help Michael Belcher fight off his cancer by giving what you can.Thank you.

Vacation Is Over - Time To Get Back To What I Love Best

I was waiting for something interesting to pop out at me,that I could write about while I enjoyed my morning tea.I went on a trip, only to hear about a tip, that a man in a Guy Fawkes mask,had something to ask. They had declared Total War on a divisive GOP front-runner, Because of his propensity of giving Mussolini a hummer.So while on my trip,I heard an exciting tip,That The View broadcast Anonymous,Political affiliates-autonomous.
Thanks toThe View for bringing a little more awareness to our wonderful friends from Anonymous.
Why the poem you ask?Today we celebrate people like Walt Whitman.It is "World Poetry Day!"And that was decided by theUNESCOback in 1999.
This is,Asking you to help Anonymous as they encourage supporters to target the website for the real estate magnate’s Chicago luxury hotel, TrumpChicago.com, on April 1 as part of their #OpTrump campaign,Jim Hauenstein

Rerun Because I Am Out Of Town

The Oxford Dictionarydefines the word  Avant-garde, if you use it as a noun as,"New and unusual or experimental ideas, especially in the arts, or the people introducing them."
Or, as an adjective,"Favoring or introducing experimental or unusual ideas." 
My favorite explanation is from someone,who took the time, to write an article for  Wikipedia,"The avant-garde pushes the boundaries of what is accepted as thenorm or the status quo, primarily in the cultural realm. The avant-garde is considered by some to be a hallmark of modernism, as distinct from postmodernism. Many artists have aligned themselves with the avant-garde movement and still continue to do so, tracing a history from Dada through the Situationists to postmodern artists such as the Language poets around 1981."  However you want to describe it, it is something that is so unusual, that at first you may think,"This isn't Art, or Theater, or Music, or Literature! It's vulgar, childish, or bizarre!"
But, then it draws you in, and you begin to understand it and enjoy it.During my youth, the first Avant-garde Artist I enjoyed would have been  David Bowie. Of course, I knew about Salvador Dali,and the pre-Hippie group,the Beatniks.But my introduction came from  Bowie. Others soon followed, like Brian Eno,  Laurie Anderson, and when  Patti Smith first came out on the scene.There are so many to choose from that I only picked the ones that I could remember right away.But nothing, in my lifetime so far, has ever compared to the Art, Music, and  Visuals the group The Residentshas demonstrated over the years.I first saw them play a gig in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,in the middle 1980s.I didn't know the band at all, but my date did.She wore a large black garbage bag as a dress with a hole in it to expose her left breast.That was my personal introduction to The Residents. Yes, I have loved them ever since.Not just because of that one event, but I was so enthralled watching them live,that I bought all their albums soon afterwards.(CDs hadn't come out yet.)I'm happy to say that they still tour and you can see where and when on their website.http://www.residents.com/home/page1/index.htmlWhat I'm really excited about is the new movie about their careers coming out later this year called,Theory Of Obscurity
I can't wait!
This is,
Thinking About That Date I Had And Her Breast - But For The Life Of Me - I Cannot Remember Her Name - I Know - I'm A Pig,Jim Hauenstein,
And,
“Okay, let's see if I got this straight. The butt is the new breast, and the lower back is the new ankle. Now if only we could figure out where the brain has moved to.” - Celia Rivenbark -
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

F1 Watching In The AZ

Late on writing today. I drove from Sunny Southern California to Sunnier Arizona. All to see the Formula 1 Race Practice today. My friend Bob has his motorhome parked in Quartzsite AZ. The  land of the largest Swap Meet in America.  He turned me on to F1 back in the 1990s. I'll try to write a real Post tomorrow. But as you know, today is the day to drink Green Beer and celebrate the Irish in us all.

This is,
Happy To Be Here,

Only The Beginning Of Existence

If you have not noticed, my Posts have lost a certain bite to them this week. I try to add my usual sarcastic wit to my stories, yet they lack that  "Je Ne Sais Quoi"quality to them.
 The reason for this, is not that I am ill in anyway, but that there has been a death in the family. Such traumatic events in our lives, sometimes make it hard to concentrate. To give the maximum effort needed to accomplish a task to one's own best ability. My distraction is not for the person who has died. My distraction is for family members who were close to the decease.They morn his passing. I morn their feeling of loss and how they will suffer from it. My beliefs are different than most. I believe that our Soul, or Conscience, Life Force, Spirit, Elan Vital, Aura, or whatever you believe that makes who we are inside, in my opinion is made from Pure Energy. I also believe that energy cannot be destroyed, but that it can only be change into another form. Leaving this life is not the end of our energy, it takes another form, which leads us into another plain of existence. I do not know how many plains of existence there is for our Pure Energy, yet I am positive that this life is only the beginning for that  Energy!
This is,Saying Goodbye To A Family Member Until I See Him On The Other Side,Jim Hauenstein,

Formula 1 Racing Is Here!

Since my viewing numbers show that I have a World Wide Audience, about 1/3 of my viewers are from other countries, I thought I would announce about the up coming season of a Global Sport that everyone loves! Futbol, I know is loved by almost every Country of the World except the United States. I do see headway of Americans liking the sport more and more, but I fear it will always be number seven on the list of Sports in the United States. The top seven then would be the  NFLMLBNBANHLNCAA SportsPGA, and finally Futbol. You will have noticed that I left out one major sport that is World Wide.  Motorsports!It is in a league all its own. And my favorite Motorsport Race is  Formula 1 Racing. My favorite Team for the upcoming season is  Mercedes with drivers  Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg.
This year we will have an American Team in Haas F1 with drivers Romain Grosjean and  Esteban Gutierrez. It would be great if they were able to score a few points this year, their first. So let us get excited because the first practice is this Friday, Qualifying is on Saturday, and the first Race of the year is on Sunday in  Melbourne. F1 Racing. Where they do not drive around in circles.

An Experiment Gone Wrong - R2-D2 In Your Own Backyard - And Celebrating Pi!

Yesterday, I experimented with a few  "Key Words" on my Blog to see if they were influencing the viewership of certain Posts I write, as one person has suggested in a email. I am happy to say, it was a complete disaster. My viewership did not increase by using those "Key Words," but actually dwindled, from what I expect would be considered a boring Post I wrote. I am hoping my viewership is increasing because people understand my type of humor,are interested in the current events I Post, and my take on what they mean to us all. Either that, or everyone is coming to my Blog, looking for a good laugh,to see how crazy I am. That is fine with me too!
"Last year at CES, (A Technology Convention next held in Las Vegas from 01/05 thru 01/08/2017) I remember seeing a life-size, fully functioning R2-D2 unit (minus the Leia hologram, sadly). I assumed it was hired out from a professional movie props unit or something similar; now I'm not so sure. Walking around SX Create -- the maker fair section at SXSW -- I bumped into not one, but two equally well-made replicas only to find they were handmade. In fact, there's an entire club -- funnily enough, called R2-D2 Builders -- dedicated to making them. What's more, the models I saw were built using a veritable menagerie of weird and wonderful items, including a good old Lazy Susan. But that doesn't mean building your own R2 comes cheap, or is a project for the faint-hearted."
By James Trey for Engadget 
"Making your own functioning R2-D2 is a labor of love. You just need $8,000 and a little bit of force."

This is,Celebrating Pi Day With A Pie, Jim Hauenstein,
And,
“A bell cannot tell time, but it can be moved in just such a way as to say twelve o’clock – similarly, a man cannot calculate infinite numbers, but he can be moved in just such a way as to say pi.”

A Few Key Words

This is a test. This is only a test. It is not a test by the  Federal Communications Commission. So do not get testy about it or get your testicles sucked up into your gut! This is a test by me, for me, to see if I really do write some wild and crazy Posts, here on this wild 
and crazy Blog.Are people really interested in reading this Blog? Or, as someone has suggested, I often use key words that get Government Agencies from around the World, Security Companies from around the World, and 
Black Hat Hackers from around the World, noticed by their high tech computers and they are checking me out to see what I have to say. If that is the case, it would explain why my computer has been acting so funny and has been slowing down so much. By all those Malwares they have been sending me I guess. I am sure they would all want to know if I am one of the good guys or one of the bad guys. See, the Government Agencies would want to see if I am on their side or the Black Hat Hackers would want to see if I am on their side. I am in the middle. I am for, what is best for the Human Condition. I am for technology advancement that can take us to the stars. I am not for Government Agencies using it against their own people. I am all for Black Hat Hackers who expose corruption or who fight against corrupt Governments. I am not for Black Hat Hackers who only hack for personal gain. At the time of writing this Post I already had 55 views on my Blog.After my test, using key words, if my numbers jump over the two hundred mark, I will know that I am on somebody's list. Either as a friend or foe.Now for some key words.

Well, I could go on for ever, but let us see what these key words bring on.

Hackers Misspelled "Foundation" In The NGO's Name As "Fandation" - It Should Be - Party With My "Fan-Nation!"

I have stated, on more than one occasion, that with enough time and patience any computer system can be hacked. It is a Corporate and Banking nightmare. "Last year, Russian computer security company Kaspersky Lab said a multinational gang of cyber criminals had stolen as much as $1 billion from as many as 100 financial institutions around the world in about two years."
This is why I never keep more than $25.00 in my checking and savings accounts at my local bank. I know what you are thinking. Jim, the  FDIC  has guaranteed up to $250,000.00 dollars in your accounts. Including your checking accounts, savings accounts, money market deposit accounts, and your certificate of deposits. Or, you will be thinking, Jim, your broke. You cannot put more than $25.00 dollars in because you don't have more than $25.00 dollars to give! Well, I do what so many Americans did during the Depression, I have a really lumpy mattress, from all that money I stuff it with, that I sleep on every night.So there!One thing you should know, I am not a lawyer, even though I play one here on this Blog, but if you read the fine print of your  Federally Insured Deposits, when you reach the $250,000.00 dollar plateau, you are considered as a sort of stock holder in that particular bank you have your funds in. If the Bank fails, it is like when a Company goes under.You are left with what can be divvied up between all the stock holders and you have to sue for the rest. So keep your funds under the $200,000.00 mark like I do."On Friday, March 11, 2016, North Milwaukee State Bank, Milwaukee, WI was closed by the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was named Receiver. No advance notice is given to the public when a financial institution is closed."  Right off the FDIC website.The latest heist in the Billion Dollar range was not foiled by our Super Duper Firewalls set up at the  Federal Reserve.It was stopped because of a miss understanding of the English language."A spelling mistake in an online bank transfer instruction helped prevent a nearly $1 billion heist last month involving the Bangladesh Central Bank and the New York Federal Reserve, banking officials said."Those guys. They went through all that trouble and then make a spelling error?"Unknown hackers still managed to get away with about $80 million, one of the largest known bank thefts in history."At least they can tell there wives there will be dinner on the table tonight. Those Firewalls,  how did they help? You don not need to breach theFederal Reserve's Firewallwhen you can,"The hackers breached Bangladesh Bank's systems and stole its credentials for payment transfers, two senior officials at the bank said. They then bombarded the Federal Reserve Bank of New York with nearly three dozen requests to move money from the Bangladesh Bank's account there to entities in the Philippines and Sri Lanka."  By Serajul Quadir for ReutersNow, we have to ask ourselves. Was it just a bunch of Kids on their home computers looking for a way to make a name for themselves? Or was it just your neighborly Corporate Espionage that is so much fun between Companies.Or, which is my favorite theory, is  Kim Jong-un  still trying to buy parts for his Nuclear Weapons Programand maybe was a little strapped for cash?That Kimmy, he is such a fun guy!
 This is,Wondering If You Still Think It Is A Good Idea Of Letting A Computer Do All Your Driving For You,Jim Hauenstein,
And,
“If you think that American Capitalism is the most dangerous Institution in the World, it just goes to show, that you haven't partied like there is no tomorrow with the fun loving posse of The Islamic Republic of Iran, North Korea, The Taliban, or ISIS. They all party off the hook!”- James Hauenstein -

TGIF - Tango Golf India Foxtrot - Thank Goodness Ida Foxtrots!

I just got my invitation in the mail for the 32nd Annual L. Ron Hubbard Achievement Awards. I was planning on going until I read the invitation and found out the dress was  Steampunk Formal! After letting John drive here in the United States for years, Siamese twins,John and Joseph, moved to England, so the other one could drive. Recently I got an invitation to appear on the Judge Judy program because I'm suing someone for $800. My second eldest daughter said, "No, you can't go. They'll put you in Jail for saying something dumb!" (True Story) Why do they bother saying "raw" sewage? Do some people cook that stuff? I failed my driver's test yesterday. The Instructor asked me, "What do you do at a red light?" I said, “Look around and listen to the radio.” Let me ask you something. If someone is lying, are their pants really on fire? Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity. And I'm not so sure about the universe.People in hell. Where do they tell someone to go? I always think about how we measure success in our lives. This is what I came up with.At age 4 success is not pissing in your pants.
At age 12 success is having friends.
At age 18 success is having your driver's license.
At age 35 success is having money.
At age 50 success is having money.
At age 70 success is having your driver's license.
At age 75 success is having friends.
At age 80 success is not pissing in your pants.
The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits. The other day,my youngest son asked me how do you spell the word "future."When spelling a word, I usually spell it out by saying two letters at a time, then pause, then another two letters, and so on. So I started with, "F-U." And he said, "Fine! You don't have to be rude about it!" (True Story)
This is,Knowing That Sincerity Is Everything - And If You Can Fake That - You Have Got It Made,Jim Hauenstein,
And,

"Why do Jewish men die before their wives? They want to."
