Fair Game

Good Evening & Happy Saturday,

Today’s good adventure is fair game for everyone.

Today WAS Saturday 03/23/V3.3 & I had a good day.

I got to see a California driver in Northwest Omaha. Maybe we are getting some new residents, we sure appreciate you visiting Omaha. Make sure you spend lots of money.

The word of the day is preterition which is the act of passing by or over; omission; disregard.

I hope you have a good Sunday!!!

Quotes from the World for Saturday 03/23/MMXIII

Kindness is not without its rocks ahead. People are apt to put it down to an easy temper and seldom recognize it as the secret striving of a generous nature; whilst, on the other hand, the ill-natured get credit for all the evil they refrain from.

Quotes from the World for Friday 03/22/MMXIII

If writers were too wise, perhaps no books would get written at all. It might be better to ask yourself “Why?” afterwards than before. Anyway, the force from somewhere in Space which commands you to write in the first place, gives you no choice. You take up the pen when you are told, and write what is commanded. There is no agony like bearing an untold story inside you.

Zora Neale Hurston
Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960), African-American novelist, short story writer, folklorist, playwright and anthropologist. Dust Tracks on a Road, ch. 8, J.P. Lippincott (1942).

Waitin’ on …

Sittin’ on a bench at West Town Mall
He sat down in his overalls and asked me
You waitin’ on a dryer
I nodded yeah and said how ’bout you
He said son since nineteen fifty-two I’ve been
Waitin’ on a dryer

When I picked her up for our first load
It told her they’d be ready at eight
And it was still wet at eight-thirty
It indicated that it would take longer
Didn’t like a thing that I tried on
But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty
Yeah she’ll take her time but I don’t mind
Waitin’ on a dryer

LG said the engineering took a year to plan
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous
Waitin’ on a dryer
And then he nudged my arm like old men do
And said, I’ll say this about the folding & hanging, it was worth it
Waitin’ on a dryer

And I don’t guess we’ve done laundry
It hasn’t made us late I swear
Sometimes she does it just ’cause she can do it
Boy it’s just a fact of life
It’ll be the same with your old dryer
Might as well go on and get used to it
She’ll take her time ’cause you don’t mind
Waitin’ on a dryer

I’ve read somewhere statistics show
The washer always the first to go
And that makes sense ’cause I know she won’t be ready
So when it finally comes my time
And I get to the other side
I’ll find myself a clothesline, if they’ve got any
I hope she takes her time, ’cause I don’t mind
Waitin’ on a dryer

So far, its been interesting.

Good Morning & Happy Friday,

It has been an interesting day so far. I engaged with people online about a cell phone video arrest made by the Omaha Police.

Today is Friday 03/22/V3.3 & it is a busy day ahead for Vernon J.

I didn’t justify the police or criminal behavior. I won’t (probably) display what results I see from the video. At least in public.

I’m having breakfast at Lisa’s Radial Cafe. I told the server to bring me surprise type of eggs.image

The word of the day is serpentine which is having a winding course, as a road; sinuous.

I don’t know what you’re doing, but I’m going to have a Good Friday today.

Vernon J out.

Quotes from the World for Thursday 03/21/MMXIII

The keynote of American civilization is a sort of warm-hearted vulgarity. The Americans have none of the irony of the English, none of their cool poise, none of their manner. But they do have friendliness. Where an Englishman would give you his card, an American would very likely give you his shirt.

Raymond Chandler
Raymond Chandler (1888–1959), U.S. author. “Beginning of an Essay,” The Notebooks of Raymond Chandler (1976).

In MY favor

Good Morning & Happy Thursday,

Everything & I mean EVERYTHING needs to work in our favor today.

Today is Thursday 03/21/V3.3 & it is a chance.

We are planning on going to see The Lion King, if everything works out with her families. Please, Please, Please, & Please.

Well you know when I posted on twitter, what time I set my alarm for. Well I set that alarm for Wednesday, it does me real good on a Thursday. BUT I had my regular alarm set for 08.28, so even if I wouldn’t have gotten up under my own power.

I’m awesome, You’re awesome, we’re all awesome. How are you celebrating?

So I need to get to eat breakfast.

The word of the day is insouciance which is lack of care or concern; indifference. As for my opening statements, I’m not insouciance about today.

Vernon J is out.
