My Evening Report
Good Evening & Happy end of the 1st day of the weekend.
Yeah, we had a good day.
Anything else.
Well here are a couple of ‘articles or comments’ that rubbed me the wrong way.
Shoddy or genius? Photographs taken of U.S. Olympic team slammed as ‘disgraceful’ as many wonder if mistakes were deliberate | Mail Online I agree with the companies that they were just making the athletes look normal.
Also on Drew Curtis’ FARK.com I agree with randomjsa’s comment randomjsa: There are two types of people now.
People who recognize the problem with voter fraud and want to do something about it.
People who recognize the problem with voter fraud and don’t want to do anything about it.
I know, I know
Good Morning & Happy Weekend.
I know that you ‘love me’, I know that someday I’ll meet you.
Today is Thursday 07/05/V3.2 & it is the #weekend.
Well I’m watching Morning Blend Omaha right now. I’m going to post this blog & then go wash dishes. Eat breakfast & then go do laundry.
The word of the day is stymie which is to hinder, block, or thwart. I think that was the word of the day, checking. Nope it is the total opposite of yesterday’s word of the day.
Quotes from the World for Thursday 07/05/MMXII
Progress is not an illusion, it happens, but it is slow and invariably disappointing.
George Orwell

My Evening Report
Good Evening & How was your Independence Day?
Good Luck with that website, but you’re a ‘undisclosed word’ cause we are in mixed company.
Meany, Meany, Meany you’re never gonna see them again. HA, HA!
Why can’t you just be nice?
So tomorrow I shall rise at 09.58 & not a moment before, unless I have to use the bathroom or something.
This has been Vernon J reporting live from a parking lot.
& that’s how it is done
Good Morning & Happy Independence Day to my fellow citizens of the United States of America.
Went to breakfast & the 62nd Annual J E George Parade.
Today is Wednesday 07/04/V3.3 & it is a freedome loving & expression kinda day.
So I get to be to work in about 3 hours, that sucks ALOT! I hope that someone will bring me some BBQ meal to work. I get lunch at 18.15, so you can just bring that to me at 10910 Mill Valley Rd.
I didn’t get a chance to do laundry yet this week. So I know what I have to do tomorrow.
The word of the day is gallant which is brave, spirited, noble-minded, or chivalrous.
Enjoy your Holiday fellow citizens of my country, to the rest enjoy Wednesday!!!
Quotes from the World for Wednesday 07/04/MMXII
We must give Mr. Phillips the credit of being a clean, erect, and what was once called a consistent man. He at least is not responsible for slavery, nor for American Independence; for the hypocrisy and superstition of the Church, nor the timidity and selfishness of the State; nor for the indifference and willing ignorance of any. He stands so distinctly, so firmly, and so effectively alone, and one honest man is so much more than a host, that we cannot but feel that he does himself injustice when he reminds us of “the American Society, which he represents.”
Henry David Thoreau
Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862), U.S. philosopher, author, naturalist. “Wendell Phillips Before the Concord Lyceum” (1845), in The Writings of Henry David Thoreau, vol. 4, p. 312, Houghton Mifflin (1906).
