Quotes from the World for Thursday 09/26/MXIII

I could take the Harlem night
and wrap around you,
Take the neon lights and make a crown,
Take the Lenox Avenue buses,
Taxis, subways,
And for your love song tone their rumble down.

It is the last day of the work week. It was a good work week for Team Vernon J. I’m happy with the way it turned out. YeAh!!!

So that is the conversation we had at the bar last night, good times in the neighborhood.

  • Thursday – Laundry, Nap, Doctor & a Nap
  • Friday Sleep, Breakfast, Nap, Something Nap, Something Nap, Oktoberfest, Bed
  • Saturday Work, Nap, Campaign kickoff for Gwenn Aspen for Legislature

A little packed weekend. I don’t have to work Sunday as my schedule changes.

Next week is also the end of September 2013.

So what does October hold for Team Vernon J?

I was going to go with the ole heartbreak thing. She knew it would hurt your feelings.

So we decided that Team Vernon J needed some reorganization. The leadership at the top isn’t doing the job. The Vice-Chair and other members of Team Vernon J have decided that you are fired. So now applications are being accepted for the Chair of Team Vernon J. If you feel that you meet the qualifications. please do apply.

This criteria is more difficult then getting a mortgage on a house.

Today is Kimberly’s Birthday, everyone wish her a happy one. Kimberly (kimisaurus_rawr) on Twitter

Quotes from the World for Wednesday 09/25/MXIII

Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and Determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan “Press On”, has solved and will always solve the problems of the human race.

Release

Good Morning & Happy Tuesday,

Release the discussion for another day.

Today is Tuesday 09/24/V3.4 & it is meeting day.

I have a meeting at 1830 today. I heard the Governor of Nebraska will be speaking. As long as the rain isn’t coming down during the to and fro, I’ll be alright.

The new phone is working like it is suppose to. The alarm went off at 0343 this morning. It receives text from individuals that make me smile.

It is also fast. The dual screen function had been used. I’ve used 10% of my battery since I’ve gotten up. So on that math the phone should last all day.

The word of the day is fermata which is the sustaining of a note, chord, or rest for a duration longer than the indicated time value.

So what are you looking forward to this week?

I know I’m going to Oktoberfest at The Crescent Moon Alehouse this week.

Have a great day.

for yours is the kingdom of God.

for you will be satisfied.
Blessed are you who weep now,
for you will laugh.
22 Blessed are you when people hate you,
when they exclude you and insult you
and reject your name as evil,
because of the Son of Man.

23 “Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven. For that is how their ancestors treated the prophets.
