The Definition of Screen Saver and Online

Have we all forgotten what words mean again?  Ok, for all of those morons out there let me give you a lesson.

Screen saver is not what your wallpaper is.  You know, the image that you see with all of your icons.  That's your wallpaper.  Say it with me.  Wall Pa Per.  Wallpaper.  That is not a screen saver.  In the olden days if you kept the same thing on the screen for too long, the image or numbers/letters would burn into the screen so every time you looked at it you would see whatever it is that got burned in there forever.  That is why they invented screen savers which is more of a moving presentation to protect your monitor.  But those days are over.  You can still use a screen saver mainly to protect your screen from prying eyes when you aren't there.

The definition of being "online" seems to have gotten cloudy too.  When you are standing at the bank you are not standing online at the bank.  If you are standing behind someone and there is someone standing behind you then you are "in line" not online.  Online means being connected to the Internet.  Now if you were standing in line at the bank and you were checking your email on your cell phone then sure, you are online while standing in line at the bank.

Did that help?  Are you more familiar with the English language now?

LOL thanks for putting up with my rants.

Woman decapitates and eats parts of her son

Holy cow dude!  There is this woman in San Antonio Texas who killed and ate parts of her baby.  Here is the article from the Times.

A Texas woman decapitated her newborn baby and ate pieces of his body before turning a knife on herself, police said Monday.


The woman was covered in blood and screaming: "I killed my baby, I want to die" when police arrived at the modest San Antonio home.


"She mentioned that someone or something told her to do it and she was hearing voices, so that leads us to believe she was experiencing some kind of mental crisis," said police spokesman Joe Rios.


The woman had separated from the baby’s father about a week earlier and was living with her mother and sister, who were helping to care for the baby born on June 30.


The woman was discovered around 4:30 am Sunday by her mother, who found her holding the decapitated baby.


She appeared to have ingested parts of her child after attacking him with a knife, Rios said.


"She was biting on the head," Rios told AFP.


Otty Sanchez, 33, was charged with capital murder and remained in hospital Monday.



I saw on a video by AustinVanDusen on YouTube that this lady said that the devil told her to do it.  Yeah.... ok whatever lady.  What if "god" told her that her baby would be a future Hitler or maybe the "devil" told her that her baby would be a future saint then I can see that as her reason but as far as I know it was just that the devil told her to do it.  Ok sure.  Whatever.  First of all I don't believe in the devil so I can't believe that something I don't believe in would be going around telling people to kill and ingest their baby.

This woman is a real ghoul, she's a zombie.  Why is it that these people are allowed to procreate yet I'm told by the state of California that I can't even get married.  I get so sick of being human sometimes.

Suffering Side Effects

Well I've already started to suffer some of the side effects from these medications that the neurologist gave me for my shoulder.

I'm taking Methylprednisolone 4MG Dospack 21's which is this pack that has all the pills that you pop out the back.  The first day is at the top and you have to take 6 pills in 1 day.  2 before breakfast, 1 after lunch and supper (I guess that drug company has never heard of dinner) and 2 at bedtime.  Then day 2 you take 5 pills at various times throughout the day.  Day 3 4 pills and so on until day 6 you are just taking 1 pill.  This one is the steroid drug.

Then the other one is Baclofen 10MG tablets that I have to take 3 times a day so like every 8 hours.  That is a muscle relaxant drug.

I read the possible side effects for both of them and some of them are similar.  The muscle relaxant doesn't have nearly as many side effects as the steroid but I'm getting quite a bit.

1 of them isn't even listed and I'm not going to air that dirty laundry in here but believe me, it's painful to sit down hint hint wink wink.  The other ones are that my teeth don't feel like they belong in my mouth lol.  They just feel strange like the dentist shot something in there to numb them.  Also I've got major joint aches and pains especially in my legs at the hips and well just everywhere in my legs.

Let's see, I can't sit, I can't stand and my teeth don't feel like they belong in my mouth lol.  What else can go wrong?  Oh shoot, I just jinxed myself by saying that.  One of the other side effects are that I'm hungry more which happened today, I got extra hungry, I had 2 sandwiches for lunch, not just bread but these really big rolls with 3 slices of turkey each and lettuce and mayo.  Oh and we went to Hometown Buffet and I stuffed myself silly and one of the other side effects is weight gain which I guarantee you tomorrow I will see that side effect come into place thanks to the hometown buffet but we're just gonna say it's a side effect from the pills ok?

UGH and my shoulders are experiencing joint pain too.  Ok, I think I need to lay down because I'm becoming too fragile to be sitting here typing.  One of my fingers might fall off and we don't want that.

Wifi scale tells the world how fat you are

WiFi scale notifies the internet of your lapsed diet - source Dvice.com

wifiscaleJust imagine that you have this in your bathroom.  You stand on the scale and all of a sudden the whole world knows just how fat you really are lol.

Through wifi this scale will post your weight and body fat percentage to the internet or if you have an iPhone it will transmit it through wifi to a iPhone app.

Why in the world would anyone want to do that?  I mean sure if you are skinny like 150lbs or lighter and you are constantly working out and keeping yourself nice and thin then I could understand wanting to brag about how skinny you are but not me.  If this could transmit the info to SparkPeople then fine but it wouldn't do me that much good to do that because when I do my weekly weigh in's at the SparkPeople website I also have to measure my waist, hips and neck too.  As far as I know this isn't that capable.

So, no thanks lol.  I think I'll pass.

Beths Drawing

beth drawingWe were visiting our old neighbors last night who moved away last year and their daughter Beth handed me this little piece of paper.  I opened it up and looked at it and asked her what it was.  She pointed at the little stick figure and said that's me, that's you (middle stick figure) and that's your brother Chip hehe.

Beth has known us since she was 1½ but she isn't really familiar with a gay relationship.  She is just assuming that we are brothers, she could assume that Chip is my father because he is much older than I am.  I don't know why she thought he was my brother.  I guess she doesn't really see age that good at her age.  I think she's maybe 4.

But anyway we all got a good laugh at that and I thought I'd scan it and share it.

Hart Park w/Jeannie Video

It was April 13th 2007 and our tenant Jeannie was just moving out after only living in our rental for 3 months.  She was a traveling nurse and that's what they do, they move to a state and city for 3 months then go back home for 1 or 2 months then they go to another state and city.  They get paid a crap load to do that.

Anyway, before she left we wanted to bring her to Hart Park here in Bakersfield, CA with her dog Chloe.  We fed the ducks for awhile then we went walking around for a bit and as we were leaving in the car we saw Peacocks so I got out and took a short video of them walking around.

Enjoy
