20120126-Random Notes

Here are my boring notes via the “Memo” app of my smart/cellphone:

21:00. The boy left the house after Maw told him about this old house when she and Paw passes on.

17:46. Paw reported that the illegal dumping of carboards and boxes on MY long stretch of road has been cleaned up by the city at around 15:00.

Yesterday, I submitted a “help ticket” to the City of San Jose under Paw’s account via Category | City Service and Manage Case | Environmental Services.

At 09:45PM tonight, I “saved” a “Thank You Note” under the “Notes and Attachments” section and “submitted” a “Case Resolved by Self Service”, too! I love this city and of course computers and the possibility of internet connection!

We (as volunteers) could have done it ourselves but there might have been hiddend “BOMBS” inside the trash or contaminated needles sticking out. And we could have been injured for being helpful. So it was logical to have the city handle the case, of course.

13:50. Paw wanted to buy two-3 gallons and two-5 gallons of water for a total of $4 (or $0.25 per gallon). But I had to back out my car from behind the Mazda, which has a VERY roomy trunk/clearance for the plastic bottles.

I had opened the garage and noticed a familiar maroon-colored, Dodge caravan coming from northbound on MY long stretch of road. She glanced into our opened garage as I quickly turned away to close the garage.

The synchronicity is uncanny and definitely SATANIC. Anyway, it was good thing Paw had to use the toilet because we wanted the way to be clear for a few minutes before I go outdoors and move my car. I noticed that the gray-colored Buick station wagon was not parked in front of their house.

09:39. During breakfast, Maw recalled how Uncle Dead complained about living with the Chingster and how paying $30 per month, compared to Uncle Smack paying $20, was already too much for buying salt and pepper. He forgot the free food and lodging cost more than his “fair share”. All those ingrates owe the Chingster a great deal. Pay-back will be karma in the form of family/health/financial problems.

Deleting my Facebook account…

Since I really do NOT have any “friends” but “acquaintances” who are mostly distant “relatives” from the Philippines and since I am concerned for my “privacy” due the “Patriot Act“, I will DELETE my Facebook.com account.

Besides, I lead a rather normal lifestyle as a bored blogger who doesn’t interact with too many people, who are TOO busy and TOO tired to care about me and my family.

Here is the following useful information on:

Deleting and deactivating your account

If you want to stop using your account, you can either deactivate or delete it.

Deactivate

Deactivating your account puts your account on hold. Other users will no longer see your profile, but we do not delete any of your information. Deactivating an account is the same as you telling us not to delete any information because you might want to reactivate your account at some point in the future. You can deactivate your account at: https://www.facebook.com/editaccount.php

Deletion

When you delete an account, it is permanently deleted from Facebook. It typically takes about one month to delete an account, but some information may remain in backup copies and logs for up to 90 days. You should only delete your account if you are sure you never want to reactivate it. You can delete your account at: https://www.facebook.com/help/contact.php?show_form=delete_account

Reference: https://www.facebook.com/full_data_use_policy

At 12:00pm (noontime) today, I’ve deleted my Facebook account (as well as my Facebook for Android app from my smartcellphone). Here are the “scripts” of the process of deletion:

Permanently Delete Account

You are about to permanently delete your account. Are you sure?

If so, fill the following:

Permanently Delete Account

Your account has been deactivated from the site and will be permanently deleted within 14 days. If you log into your account within the next 14 days, you will have the option to cancel your request.

[Okay]“

Conclusion: Before computers, I was alone and lonely with my thoughts. With computers, I have not changed my frame of mind.

I thought I wanted to be remembered online. But I come to realize that I am but an egg to be lost, stolen and/or forgotten in a pond teaming with life without the need for computers.

 

End times…

Ezekiel 38 and 39 KJV

3And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog…”

 

6And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.”

Here is the overview of the “Google Policies and Principles:”

One policy, one Google experience

We’re getting rid of over 60 different privacy policies across Google and replacing them with one that’s a lot shorter and easier to read. Our new policy covers multiple products and features, reflecting our desire to create one beautifully simple and intuitive experience across Google.

This stuff matters so please read our updated Google Privacy Policy and Terms of Service when you have a few minutes. These changes will take effect on March 1, 2012.



Easy to work across products

Our new policy reflects our desire to create a simple product experience that does what you need, when you want it to. Whether reading an email that reminds you to schedule a family get together or finding a favorite video that you want to share, we want to ensure you can move across Gmail, Calendar, Search, YouTube, or whatever your life calls for with ease.

Protecting your privacy hasn’t changed

Our goal is to provide you with as much transparency and choice as possible, through products like Google Dashboard and Ads Preferences Manager alongside other tools. Our privacy principles remain unchanged. And we’ll never sell your personal information or share it without your permission (other than rare circumstances like valid legal requests).

Tailored for you

If you’re signed into Google, we can do things like suggest search queries — or tailor your search results — based on the interests you’ve expressed in Google+, Gmail, and YouTube. We’ll better understand which version of Pink or Jaguar you’re searching for and get you those results faster.

Understand how Google uses your data

If you want to learn more about your data on Google and across the web, including tips and advice for staying safe online, check out Good to Know.

Easy to share and collaborate

When you post or create a document online, you often want others to see and contribute. By remembering the contact information of the people you want to share with, we make it easy for you to share in any Google product or service with minimal clicks and errors.

Got questions? We got answers

Visit our FAQ to read more about the changes. (We figured our users might have a question or twenty-two.)

Notice of change

March 1, 2012 is when the new Privacy Policy and Google Terms of Service will come into effect. If you choose to keep using Google once the change occurs, you will be doing so under the new Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.

Free drivings…

I love driving because I feel more comfortable when I’m in control of the vehicle. If other people drive, I feel claustrophobic and need to roll down the passenger’s window for fresh air.

In the past the twosome thought I was being rude each time I roll down the windows. But now Maw realizes that I’m really clogged up and starved for oxygen.

Currently, I am the designated driver for both my parents after Maw complained of how Paw has made MANY near-miss accidents, such as exiting too quickly into northbound HWY 101 and cutting in front of BIG rigs and other vehicles.

However, I am not the greatest driver. Each morning after mass Paw would remind me: “Count three seconds at this stop sign.” (This is where I got a ticket. I was “racing” with two Mexicanos to my left who was mysteriously and for good reason in full stop at that time).

Just before Paw finishes into the third count I’d go ahead and then he’d mumble his dis-satisfaction at my stubbornness. As for Maw, she has cooled down. And this is to keep what’s left of her health.

Personally, I feel the need to reciprocate my service as designated driver. After all, I do live with them and they feed me, too. So it would only make sense not to “ride for free” forever. In this way, I get the stress of driving instead of them.

Sometimes, I want to “help” pay for their gasoline to show my support. But Paw is a control freak too and he prefers to pay in cash and personally dispense gasoline into his two cars — a Mazda Protoge and an MB E430.

Our travels to common designations average 20 miles and so walking and taking other modes of transportation would only slow us down as we zip by traffic and ignore the scenery of trash on highway landscapes.

20120125-Random Notes

Here arts my notes via the “Memo” app of my smart phone:

13: 51. Found fourth egg of Yeyo!

12: 09. Was listening to the Hannitizer on pitt local radio station and created a funny with the word homeowner, which to me sounded like “homo” owner!

12: 04. Saw a metallic, golden yellow Ford Focus, which reminded me of Pikachu. If I wanted a new car, I would get this one and have black stripes all over just like the animated cartoon character!

11: 12. While waiting near the pet food aisle, I saw sans of Fancy Feast and other dog food and noticed that ruhr white Persian cat had green-colored, vertical pupils, just like snakes and how dogs had round brown eyes, like some people, while goats, sheep, horses and pals hve horizontal pupils.

08: 37. Had skinny, white bishop with pink (gay) cap celebrate this morning’s mass.
