Want to Be

Want to be who I am today.

Good Morning & Happy Monday folks. Today is Monday 11/04/V3.4 & it is a great day.

Mayor Jean Stothert’s is having two community forums today. The one at 24th & Lake is about Jobs. This is her effort to reach out to North Omaha. The meeting starts at 1200. She is also having her 1st District Town Hall Meeting. It is at Benson Library 6015 Binny St. The meeting time is at 1830, I won’t be at either.

Does anyone have a Mario Kart/Nintendo Costumes?

The word of the day is skeigh which is proudly.

So CBS has screwed up again. The Mentalist did not start at 2100, which means my pre-scheduled program didn’t record it in its entirety. I can’t roar right now because it is only 0545 & there might be people sleeping in the area.

I’m listening to Katy Perry’s PRISM.

Going to have me some bacon for breakfast.

I’ve only got to do 1 thing today, besides eat and sleep.

Vernon J out.

We Designed

Let’s hope the design is better than last week.

Good Morning & Happy Thursday Folks. It is a great day in Omaha, but did you miss me?

Today is Thursday 10/31/V3.4 & it is Halloween.

Yeah, I just got a call to win an iPad, yeah I’m going to go ahead and pass.

Well after laundry today I’m going to nap. I was going to stay in bed a little bit longer, but I didn’t. I have washed dishes, ate breakfast, watched The Morning Blend. I’m watching Person of Interest from Tuesday while I put these characters to other characters.

The word of the day is phantasmagoric which is having a fantastic or deceptive appearance.

So there have been two things (actually three) that have been bothering me.

1st North Dakota letter. This lady is clarifying her position on childhood obesity. People are upset about this, read comments on any page that carries that story.

2nd Also recently in Omaha someone wanted to build a house. They found opposition from the neighbors and the quasi-government historical society. They have said they will be building their house somewhere else in the metro. There were no objective criteria of what is considered a historic house. 25 years ago is history today, so is 50, so is 75. Today will be history tomorrow.

Have a great day.

My Evening Report

Good Evening & Happy Wednesday Eve.

I come to you with troubling news from the world of culinary arts.

First I don’t like the word no, it has negativity written all over it. So I discourage the use of it. BUT tonight I make this unwritten vow.

No, No, No, No, NO!

This is a Chicken 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is a strip –

You combine the two you get Chicken Strips.

The following is not chicken strips & I am upset about the connotation that is being presented.

 

That is all.

This isn’t FOREVER!

Good Morning again,

This isn’t FOREVER,

Today is Wednesday 08/28/V3.4 & we are going to Press On.

So today on Google Music I listened to Mandisa’s Overcomer. I didn’t know what it was when I played it, I just explored and played. It is a religious CD and it is great. Visit Mandisa Official » for more information.

I guess that’s why I chose the title of today’s blog entry.

Whatever is going on in your life isn’t FOREVER, contrary to what you may have heard EVER. There is only one thing that is FOREVER and that is you living with you.

You may have seen me post this on twitter (once) and/or facebook (twice). Let Me Explain Why Miley Cyrus’ VMA Performance Was Our Top Story This Morning | The Onion – America’s Finest News Source this is honestly what the media believes.

I’ll give you a good example, Yesterday the Omaha City Council passed a budget with NO tax increases for us. You think that would be the lead story in the locality, but it wasn’t. This issues effects all the citizens of the area your business is located in. These things matter, report them first. Stay OUT of people’s personal lives.

The word of the day is pittance which is a small amount or share.

So I don’t currently have any weekend plans and I think I’m okay with that. The usually will happen, you know laundry tomorrow. Napping tomorrow, Friday, and a low possibility on Saturday.

Well we need to do what we need to do ….

Giving Up

Good Morning & Happy Wednesday,

I’m not giving up, she’s not giving up. wallytease2 on Vimeo

Today is Wednesday 06/12/V3.4 & are you giving up?

What a GREAT day to be alive and living in America, Australia, & other countries.

I don’t know what I’m not giving up on, but I can tell you that I’m not. There isn’t a reason to give up, if you thought you might of wanted it. THEN YOU SHOULD GO GET IT!

The word of the day is sward which is the grassy surface of land; turf.

So Google is being sue again by users. Google gmail users sue google. You’ll get about 5 to 10 lawsuits. So now the question is which user and when. This one is the today’s hot issue Google surveillance far surpasses the NSA, author says – CBS News. Dear sir and maam, you agreed to it. IF you agree to somehting, you have to do it. That’s how these agreements work.

More later.

Might Be Real

Good Morning & Happy Monday,

It is 5 o’ clock somewhere. In particular it is 05.12 in New Zealand. I’m not sure why I have that saved in my clock.

Today is Monday 03/11/V3.3 & I don’t care.

I don’t have to work at ‘main employer’ today, I do have to go to my new contract work.

I might be permanently banned from facebook. This doesn’t effect me personally, cause personally facebook cane blow snow (off my sidewalk). Apparently they either went though & cleared up facebook. I use Vernon J Smith on facebook, my legal name is Vernon J (redacted) & apparently facebook has a problem with this.

But if they just gave me a call, they would know one of two things. I go by Vernon J, everything I use it is Vernon J (ie Vernon-J.com, my twitter username is Vernon_J_ don’t get me started on Stephen from Sweden, my foursquare username is Vernon J. So if facebook doesn’t want to play by MY rules, I won’t be using their service anymore.

Facebook also has TERRIBLE customer service. I’ve submitted my id (contrary to my personal beliefs) over 12 hours ago. I then submitted it again after I woke up. TERRIBLE!!!

The word of the day is  shilly-shally which is to show indecision or hesitation; be irresolute; vacillate.

Well that’s it for now, I need to you know. (GET DRESSED & stuff).

Vernon J OUT!!!

My Evening Report

Good Evening & Happy FNP-Eve!!!

It is days like (today) that I created My Evening Report category.

When GREAT days like this happen.

I wake up with a GREAT smile on my face, and usually when I post my first entry my day is GREAT. Now it can get greater though the interactions I have with people, or I(& ONLY I) can make it worst by my interactions with people.

When I posted my instagram picture, 20130228090057124

Here’s a song for you to enjoy.

My day started on the internet & then going to do laundry. I put my clothes in the wash, showered, shaved, and made my bed. I then put the clothes in the dryer & went to Family Dollar. I tried a new brand/scent of fabric softener. UPC – 024200060985, yeah you will have to do some research.

Unlike some news station in the local area. I won’t say any names, but you can see their incomplete story here.  You can also read this collection of posts on twitter.

Now if Shelley can find out the truth with a little research, I’m sure you can too John. YES I e-mailed them and informed them of there error. The e-mail was sent at 21.58, at the current time 23.08 the story has NOT been updated to reflect the correct information.

But remember 1 thing.

On TV. Online. On the Go.
The People You Know. The News You Trust.

Now I’m not saying I don’t trust them. I guess I do know them, I think I met a few of them in person. I’ve also had one of those ‘awkward’ conversations with one of their employees. BUT She’s cool!!

NOW back to how good my day was.

  1. I had II bowls of Ice Cream
  2. My mittens were at still at Metro, that’s a good thing
  3. I was suppose to get I hour of bonus work, but I got II hours of bonus work. I get paid by the hour so that is a good thing.
  4. I danced
  5. I can’t reveal this portion of my day, cause its ‘top secret’ by ‘top secret’ it means I either posted on #4sq, posted on twitter about it earlier and it will be buried in my history that isn’t as easily accessible as this. Potentially more details to come.

Check out my pictures I posted. Photos from Thursday 02/28/V3.3 | Photographs by Vernon J

A Guy who is internally happy is now signing off.

Dentist Appt tomorrow at 08.00 & then work. I thing I’ll go watch a movie since I’ll be up anyways. Or I will come back & take a nap.

Unnamed news station has updated the story, no response to the e-mail!

Today’s Adventure

Good Morning & Happy Friday!!!

Today’s Adventure has been pretty well. Got up at 07.50ish due to someone scraping their car windows. That is on top of the plow that came though during sleepy time.

Today is Friday 02/22/V3.3 & it will be a day to Begin Again!!!

I’ve already been to the ATM, Grocery Store this morning. Taking care of business, like a #VernonJ.

I got a break today, my supervisor said I didn’t have to go into work today. We would’ve had to be there 5 mins ago. I’m sure nobody would’ve come in though. The only downside to this is that Michelle didn’t get me to bring her any breakfast. She’s a medium size lady, & I’m sure she’ll be fine. Also I won’t name names, but her co-workers looked better with her glasses & the hair the way it was today.

These are the wings that was eaten in the Twisted Pine Ghost Face Killah Beer & Wing Challenge. image I didn’t eat this particular wings, when I took this picture I had already consumed my wings.

I ate 10 wings & drank a beer in 1 minute & 54 seconds. I came in fifth place. The winner finished in 1 minute & 8 seconds.

You can see more pictures here. Speaking of Crescent Moon Alehouse Kelly isn’t reading my blog.

The word of the day is umber which is shade; shadow. When I came out of N Frills with my Food Bank for the Heartland & Baker’s reusable bag the sun was shining. That would create a umber.

Also their customer service left something to be desired, I went to the ‘check yourself out’ & the lady kept leaving. Took about an extra 3 to 5 mins of my time cause she just couldn’t stay put. NOW to be fair, she was helping other employees back another customers grocery.

So now I’m going to go & wash dishes & put my Pizza & Tater Puffs in the oven for dinner. I still have to go to work tonight. We aren’t on a level & that means I have to be there on time. Which means I have to catch the early bus, cause they are running on winter time.

It is National Margarita Day. My friend Dawn told me about this National Holiday, yet another reason why I shouldn’t have to go to work.

Well that’s it for now.

Vernon J out.

What do you mean earlier?

Good Morning & Happy Thursday,

What do you mean you had me scheduled earlier. I clearly remember my appointment being Thursday morning. YOU know cause I have Thursday’s off & I got my last shot on Thursday.

Today is Thursday 02/07/V3.3 & it is a double kinda day.

I went to the Medical Doctor to get my shot. I went to the Eye Doctor to get my well eyes checked and new corrective lenses.

I’ve got the laundry in the dryer now, I could’ve washed the dishes. I didn’t, is that going to be a problem? That’s good cause I get off at 20.00, so I will have time before the FNP arrives.

These week’s FNP is sponsored by the number 30. That is the maximum number of points that University of Nebraska Omaha Mavericks (twitter hashtag #OMavsHockey) Hockey Team can have at the end of this weeks series with University of North Dakota Hockey.

The other sponsor of the FNP is Overtime, as it is “unlikely, but possible ” that I may work it from 9 to 12 on Saturday.

Speaking of things to do with UNO Hockey & Saturday. The Omaha Press Club is having a Skybox for the Outdoor game. You can make your reservations until 17.00 tonight. That gives you about 4 hours & some minutes after I post this.

Hold on, the alarm went off for the dryer. I have an extra XI mins, its that ole smart dryer that does think like readjust itself to ensure it is dry.

Just for the record when yelling at the #TeeVee the news people like Deanne can’t here you. YES the people at KMTV decided that #KMTVAction3News is now their official hashtag. I suggested & have used #A3N in the past. They could’ve also went with #KMTV. anything but what they have went with.

YES I’m a hashtag snob, today’s hashtag of the day is #time. Cause by time I realized it was Thursday, I didn’t have a hashtag ready, so I went with time. It is also about time that I go check my clothes again.

We are at 346+ words now. It was 346 when I started typing this sentance, so you know it is going to be above 346.

Did you know you can  Piccolo’s Florist is Nebraska’s Largest Florist (according to their website). …sometimes just because is good enough! & better enough because Valentine’s Day is just 7 Days Away. You can send me some Chocolates and/or Ice Cream to 10910 Mill Valley Rd. Omaha, NE 68154. I’ll be working Valentine’s Day due to me NOT having plans anymore.

The word of the day is gastronomy which is the art or science of good eating. Like a Sausage, Egg, & Cheese bagel from Bruegger’s Bagel.

Here’s a video to end this blog entry. I’ll have more to go, an in-depth review of things that upset me in the last XXIV to XXXVI hours.

This song came out in MMVII.

What’s missing

Good Morning & Happy Tuesday,

So there’s this sign at 40th & Farnam St.

image

It indicates in nouncertain terms that there is ‘No Turn On Red’.

Can you see that? Cause I always saw it when I was driving at that corner.

Oh that’s right ‘little lady’ you were talking on the phone.

Excuse me while I stand in front of your car & inform yyou of the law you broke. Oh you’re mad? I DON’T CARE!
