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

2012/02/23 15:40. I got an imagery of “Fruit of the Loons”.

2012/02/23 15:40. From this morning, I had a thought about how church goers are NOT at peace with themselves and believe in man-made scams that worshiping in mad-made “religious” establishments who help empower their prayers.

2012/02/23 13:50. While eating lunch we were watching a televised new programming on cable about the war in Syria. Maw and I feel that is good they should die. After all, it was UNBELIEVABLE to see a solider marching and a journalist begging for “help” from America.

2012/02/23 13:16. I saw a flying bug/beetle hovering/flying near the center window upstairs at the computer bedroom.

2012/02/23 09:57. While watching a televised news programming on cable, we saw how Wolf Blitzer and his CNN pals talking about Rubio being a former Mormon and the potential for a VP position if Mitt becomes president. Maw predicted that if Mitt is nominated, Barack will will as POTUS again.

2012/02/23 09:10. While listening to “El Rushbeau” on our local radio station on NewsTalk 910 AM, Ron Paul hasn’t been getting on Mitt’s case for the strange prediction that Mitt may have offered Rand Paul a position or something.

2012/02/23 07:58. While people were lined up to get their ash yesterday, psycho Thai was singing out of tune and wouldn’t stop!

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

2012/02/20 19:17. After eating dinner, I had another stray thought. It’s an old thought in which I could hear my voice echo as if within the “Hall Of Records”. The strange echos from my louder than usual voice were heard on several occasions. I’m NOT kidding, including hearing a certain tone/chime on my “right” field of hearing that ONE other time (as per my OLD blog).

2012/02/20 10:29. We were listening to this morning’s local radio station with the funny Brian Sussman and that boring Morgan, what’s her name. The electric car needs an electric outlet to recharge. The electricity bill will sky rocket from usage. The battery can loose power over time, just like my stupid smart/cellphone, which needs CONSTANT recharge because I use the internet more frequently.

The talk was about the Chevy Volt compared to the Ford Focus, which is supposed to run better; since Ford was the only American car manufacturer that did NOT take the government bail money.

2012/02/20 09:44. At 09:43, I broke open/ate a fortune cookie and read: “YOUR HARD WORK IS ABOUT TO PAY OFF”.

2012/02/20 08:09. This morning, Father Mike, sort of re-iterated his sermon from Saturday evening, in which he discussed how the American political system is supposed to be designed for the “COMMON GOOD”. His major was American history with concentrations in the American War of 1812 and another one, which I forgot.

During the closing remarks of Saturday evening’s mass, he spoke in FLUENT Spanish and even pronounced the “Alameda County” with such finesse! This was in regards to the “Californians for Parental Rights” petition (which is supposed to “Protect a Parent’s Right to Know”) that at least six Filipino women where “encouraging” the parishioners to sign.

More information on petition

The plan was to get a bill into legislation. Maw and Paw signed the “piece of paper”. I didn’t say a word and wanted to knock a pen held up for me to sign while I took a photo of the information section on the bottom the petition.

My problem with this “side of the game” are the parents who don’t believe in abortions. Laws are supposed to be in place to protect the minor from abuses from within the family AND outside the family. I can “see” how abortions are more common among common folks, meaning Hispanics and Black. “Don’t doubt me.” (I borrowed/stole this sound-bite from “El Rushbeau”, of course).

I don’t see how this or any petition CAN be verified if DISHONEST people don’t comply: 1) to being at least 18 years of age and 2) to being a registered voter and a resident of their respective county. I can see “fraud” can happen at this level as much in “caucuses” and in “general elections”.

Going back to this morning’s sermon, Father Mike mentioned how there are freedom of religion and freedom to worship. (08:10) In my mind, “birth control” is NOT the issue. Anyone who wants to protect themselves against unwanted pregnancy should be allowed to do so regardless of anyone’s religious “freedom” and “moral compass”. The point is to preserve fathers from being sued, to prevent mothers from suffering and to avoid children from dying needlessly. You friggin’ righteious morons!

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

2012/02/17 23:22. I recall my first cousin Jay-Jay. He was living/free-loading with us in the early 1980′s and asked Maw to co-sign for a new car. When Maw refused, he said: “F^ck you!” His father, my late uncle Florene, told his younger sister, Maw: “Oh! He is mad at you.” So you see folks, these are the kinds of ungrateful relatives. I am talking about. These foreigners come over to America, get a VISA/green card and fight with honest, hard-working people who have nothing do to with dead beat bums. It so happens he cannot find a job here in America because of his drug record at the base long ago.

2012/02/17 17:18. While at my computer workstation upstairs, I saw sea gulls flying from left to right and a sylph was over the general SJC area, along with other armada of wispy clouds.

2012/02/17 08:32. A parishioner distracted Maw and Paw with her stories about the trip in the Philippines. While waiting for them to stop yapping, I took notes about how Myrna had coughed behind me (08:25) while we were waiting in the pew to line up like cattle ready for the host, psycho Myrna was behind me and she let out her usual coughs to get my attention. Emmer her husband was behind her. Maw sensed that he wants to talk with us the the orangutan wife with red hair color is controlling her hen-pecked husband.

2012/02/17 08:13. After listening to the sermon, my notes was about a psyho white lady sitting behind Paw. She was coughing too frequently that Maw and I scooted one seat over to the right; while Paw was still glued to his normal seat nearest the center aisle at the right rear section of the church.

2012/02/17 08:13. Father Jon dropped the Eucharistic host. That’s symbolically bad-luck. I wonder if he distributed the broken off pieces to the public.

2012/02/17 07:47. I noticed Paw’s Mazda Protoge‘s dashboard read 37,344 (odometer). The other day it was 37,322.
