Bible Verse

Dear forgiving Lord, thank You for intentionally choosing to forget my sins in the blood of Jesus. Grant me the Holy Spirit, that I will continually proclaim Your name and not forget it but gladly call upon You in all situations. Amen. #TheWater

Taxes for a Cruise

Good Morning & Happy Friday,

I have decided that I will do taxes this upcoming season to take a cruise.

Today is Friday 08/16/V3.4 & it is a Happy #FNP!

The are at least 3 providers in the Omaha area that offer courses that start in the next month. This is decision time, but there are a couple things to consider upon taking this journey.

  1. Taking classes this fall
  2. Working two jobs the beginning of next year, next year is also an election year. I’d want to help with some campaigns.
  3. I may take courses next year at University of Nebraska Omaha to become a Master. UNO has a Master of Public Administration, a Public Administration-Management Information Systems Dual Program & a Public Administration-Social Work Dual Program. I think they ended their Masters in Marketing Program. Bellevue University doesn’t have a Masters in marketing. So that would mean I would need to take the post Bachelor tests this fall. The Applications for UNO are due near/around March 1st.
  4. I guess I’ll decided sometime in the next week.
  5. BTW the only reason I would do taxes is to save up for a cruise in the fall . A 5-day Western Caribbean cruise is less than a month’s rent. BUT that doesn’t include all the extras, you know the stuff that is extra. I picked my time frame from Sep 2014 to Nov 2014.

The word of the day is cummerbund which is a wide sash worn at the waist.

So I have a meeting at 11:30 today. It is for the African American Achievement Council. You are more than welcome to attend, it is at the OPS Teachers Administrative Center building. It is in the Board Dining Room to the left of the cafeteria. 3215 Cuming St. Omaha, NE 68131

Then I get to come home and do nothing or everything. I do what I want, but I could do what you wanted me too.

Well that’s it for now.

Vernon J out.

 

Quotes from the World for Friday 08/16/MMXIII

The past is only the present become invisible and mute; and because it is invisible and mute, its memoried glances and its murmurs are infinitely precious. We are tomorrow’s past.

Quotes from the World for Thursday 08/15/MMXIII

Knowledge is indivisible. When people grow wise in one direction, they are sure to make it easier for themselves to grow wise in other directions as well. On the other hand, when they split up knowledge, concentrate on their own field, and scorn and ignore other fields, they grow less wise—even in their own field.

I’ll be right there

Good Morning & Happy Thursday,

I’ll be right there, as soon as I live.

Today is Thursday 08/15/V3.4 & it is Dan’s Birthday.

So I was introducing myself to my new neighbor, she is from another country. She asked if Vernon was a popular American name. I told her it was in the 1930’s & 1940’s. She said all the older people are dying, which means that I’m becoming one of the few, The Proud, Vernon’s. So it is your duty as people, to start having voys and name them Vernon. Well get to it.

So we have laundry underway and breakfast going down the ole belly.

I’m also good .05% a chance, it isn’t a 50%, but it isn’t a 0% chance either.

The word of day is impolitic which is not politic, expedient, or judicious.

So the Empowerment Network is having a meeting on Saturday 08/17/V3.4. The meeting is at Omaha North High School (Viking Center). 4410 N. 36th Omaha, NE 68111. The Breakfast, Networking, & Displays start at 8:30, the Interactive Meeting is at 9:30 to 11:30.

So I’m watching Big Bang Theory Season VI Episode V. I totally need to marry (I mean date) a scientist.

Well I think that is it for now, for a couple reasons. I’ll be here all day for you though.

Quotes from the World for Wednesday 08/14/MMXIII

Kindness is a virtue neither modern nor urban. One almost unlearns it in a city. Towns have their own beatitude; they are not unfriendly; they offer a vast and solacing anonymity or an equally vast and solacing gregariousness. But one needs a neighbor on whom to practice compassion.

Phyllis McGinley
Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978), U.S. poet, author. “A Garland of Kindness,” The Province of the Heart (1959).

NOT on My Watch

Good Morning & Happy Wednesday,

My friend’s Dustin Ice Cream Scoop was stolen at work. We can’t let this kinda behavior continue.

Today is Wednesday 08/14/V3.4 & we are on Date II.

We can NOT let this injustice brought upon Dustin to spread.

So I took the famous  First they came …

First they came for the beef steaks,
and I didn’t speak out because I don’t eat beef.

Then they came for the wine,
and I didn’t speak out because I don’t drink wine.

Then they came for the Ice Cream Scoops,
OH HECK NO. Call The National Guard, Call The Air National Guard, Call the Marines. This ain’t happening on my watch.

Then they gave the scoop back,
and there was no one left to speak cause they were all eating Ice Cream.

As an Ice Cream aficionado of Ice Cream Eating, I won’t let that stand. Just for the record, I spelled that word without assistance.

Okay we are not on a Date II, I haven’t been on a date this month. Although yesterday my friend asked me why I me and redacted haven’t went out on a date. I had no good answer for that, so I guess my goal should be to call up her and say. How’s it going name redacted? So I know that we did redacted last year. Then I got busy running for office, working second shift, and we didn’t get a chance to go on a second date. So I was wondering if we could give it another try.

Yeah that is some powerful stuff right there. So we will see now.

The word of the day is wowser which is an excessively puritanical person. This comes from our friends down in the south Australia and New Zealand.

So today we have work, work, and then no more work until Saturday. It isn’t hump day it is the last day of the work week. YEAH!!!

I’m watching Hitch right now, it isn’t on the dance scene. I want to see it, Q-Tip, Sprinkler, the Lawn Mower.

Cause Dancing isn’t a problem for me.

& that’s what I will leave you with.
