in the go figure dept.

 As the title says I'm scratching my head for some reason when I hooked up my router and put my DSL modem in bridged mode the speed increased.Which is a good thing since I checked into other plans to replace my AT&T DSL and found out the alternitives are out because of up front costs.And Yes Sandee I do appriciate what you offered me. 
One thing I found out is there is a program called Lifeline for Internet in the works. it is supposd to provide low cost internet to people,we would qualify for that. We already have lifelife for out phone service.
we are getting by on my disability income and any savings we can find is good.

A Thought

What some people would call a good natured ribbing. is not to others.the others it seems like an attack.I am one such person. it stems from childhood and putting up being made fun of because of the seizures. so sometimes it is difficult for me to see the difference. and if that has caused some conflict between me and others.I hope people will be a little more tolerant of me and a little more understanding of me.This is posted on my Facebook page as well.

Just a thought

I happened across this article about Firefox and I thought I'd share it. The Aurora and Night builds versions of Firefox are experimental and may be unstable. I do like the Firefox Beta version that I am currently using. what you choose to use  is up to you of course.of some People Like the Google Chrome browser. some people like the Internet Explorer browser.
I cannot use the chrome version at all it crashes my computer and I just do not like internet explorer

JUST SAYIN'

So tell me is this a good idea or not.

Celestine suggested something to me.I should take a photo of myself that print it out to make flat Mikey and send it to people to take with them to different places.and photograph my picture and the place they visit together.that way flat Mikey can visit the world.

I wonder if this is worth it.

I'm wondering it this is worth putting into the computer instead of windows????



the next question is where do i get it?????

the crap i see in my email spam folder

As the title says I see some real doozies in my spam folder. Mind you I never open any of that crap I just had to share this title though: CHRISTMAS IS COMING.......order your Viagra NOW.

My question is this, is it supposed to be a self gift or a stocking stuffer??

A fantanstic posting.

Sarge Charlie did a fantanstic posting.I just had to share it.
His wife EmpressBee made a fantanstic point as well.
I can only add this Thank you Sarge for your service.

I'M NOT SURE IF I'M GONNA CONTINUE.

I'm not sure in I even want to have internet access any more,especially after the STUPID FIGHT I JUST HAD TODAY.
SO IF YOU DON'T SEE ME ANYMORE THAT WHY.I DO HAVE SOME STUFF SET TO POST.

The Crossover V Station Wagon

The Crossover (CUV)

It's still just a Station Wagon in my book. OH I forgot that's a derogatory word. That's why the auto companies stopped making them. I give you the Station wagon:

Now tell me is there is not that much difference between the two pictures?

This works for me.

A thought about Memorial Day.

It is the
VETERAN,
not the preacher,
who has given us freedom of religion.

It is
the VETERAN,
not the reporter,
who has given us freedom of the press.

It is
the VETERAN,
not the poet,
who has given us freedom of speech.

It is
the VETERAN,
not the campus organizer,
who has given us freedom to assemble.


It is
the VETERAN,
not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.



It is
the VETERAN,
not the politician,
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the
VETERAN who
salutes the Flag,

It is
the
VETERAN
who serves
under the Flag,

ETERNAL
REST GRANT THEM O LORD, AND LET PERPETUAL LIGHT SHINE UPON
THEM.

Just for the sake of argument.

Does God Love Homosexuals?


According to most researchers, genetics plays a major role when it comes to sexual orientation. Although the environment and experiences may also affect one's choice and preference, it is rarely the case that a person should suddenly become or turn gay overnight. In those instances, it may be that the person already had genetic predisposition, but decided to ignore or reject those tendencies.

The dilemma concerning sexual orientation and religion may run something like this: Should the person give in to his sexual urges or should he fight against them? If, as some religious groups claim, it is against nature and hence against God's will, then why are they created in this manner in the first place by God Himself? Does God like to make people suffer? Or is God testing the faith of homosexual people by giving them extra challenges?

The first one is out of the question because it is in direct violation to the definition of God's attributes. The second question deals with temptation, but why would gays be singled out? Why make it more difficult for them and why deny them to obey and follow their natural inclination? It is in fact the Catch 22 of homosexual love: From the person's view it is a natural choice, whereas from society's view it is supposedly an act of “perversion against nature.” Either way, the homosexual is doomed.

Now what about overcoming the homosexual impulses and become, more or less, straight? This proposition is fraught with many difficulties. What good would it be if the homosexual person establishes a family based on lies, make believe and pretense? Who is ultimately benefiting from this charade? The wife will not have a husband, and the homosexual man will not be happy with his lifestyle, while their children, should there be any, will be confused by the behavior of both of their parents.

Nobody would win in that situation so that it seems to be out of question as well unless you believe that homosexuality is a “disease” that can be “cured.” But if you are calling one's sexual orientation, which we have agreed upon as genetically programmed, then one's skin color could also fall in this ominous category of “diseases.” And that is just equally absurd.

By eliminating all of those options, we are left with only one possible answer, namely that God accepts and loves each and everyone unconditionally, regardless of color and sexual orientation. Jesus accepted the poor and the crippled and the prostitutes. Would Jesus not have accepted gays as well? What makes them inherently different from the rest of us? Why should they in any way feel ashamed for the way nature has created them?

I posted a comment and I will repost it here as well.We have been taught that GOD created man in His Image,therefore he did create STRAIT and GAY people,END OF DISCUSSION!!!!!

A Thought

With a big time Tip of The Hat to Len's site from whom I got this one.

Food for Thought.

a diatribe on a fellow bloggers site.

Today I did something that I have not done in a super long time.I went on a diatribe on AirmanMom's site in answer to a comment made on her posting.Here is the remark that was made and my responce.
The blog Fodder said,
Looks like the chickens are coming home to roost.

"Taking the fight to them" has turned a number of otherwise Americans against their adopted country, in defense of their old homeland.
my responce was this:
To the blog fodder,maybey they never really intended on being loyal the the USA,Does the term SLEEPER CELL ring a bell!!!!!!During the different wars that has always happened.people come here "to make a new life" all the while loyal to the mother country just waiting for a chance to do harm to the U.S.
Sorry AirmanMom,I did not intend to go on a diatribe on your site.

A clandestine cell structure is a method for organizing a group in such a way that it can more effectively resist penetration by an opposing organization. Depending on the group's philosophy, its operational area, the communications technologies available, and the nature of the mission, it can range from a strict hierarchy to an extremely distributed organization. It is also a method used by criminal organizations, undercover operatives, and unconventional warfare (UW) led by special forces.
Cell structures continue to evolve. Historically, clandestine organizations avoided electronic communications, because signals intelligence, SIGINT, is a strength of conventional militaries and counterintelligence organizations. New communications techniques, such as the Internet and strong encryption, may allow some inter-cell communications that were too dangerous in the past.
In the context of tradecraft, covert and clandestine are not synonymous. The adversary is aware that a covert activity is happening, but does not know who is doing it, and certainly not their sponsorship. Clandestine activities, however, if successful, are completely unknown to the adversary, and their function, such as espionage, would be neutralized if there was any awareness of the activity. A covert cell structure is tantamount to a contradiction in terms, because the point of the cell structure is that its details are completely hidden from the opposition.
A sleeper cell refers to a cell, or isolated grouping of sleeper agents that belong to an intelligence network or organization. The cell "sleeps" (lies dormant) inside a target population until it receives orders or decides to act. (See also Mole (espionage), Double agent, Sleeper agent.) A sleeper cell is a somewhat special case, if, for example, it is clandestine until activated, as with a sabotage or terror unit. Still, there can be cells (or singleton agents) who are both clandestine and sleeper. While most World War II UK espionage agents sent to the UK were almost immediately caught and neutralized, a few, who infiltrated an area long ahead of time, and set up a clock repair shop or something else innocent that was also near a naval base, were only activated when there was a specific operational requirement. Sleepers also provide support services, such as emergency escape routes, backup communications, etc.

a fun thing

This is a test.I just discovered that my computer has an on-screen keyboard,that you can use just like your regular keyboard.Who says that an old dog can't learn a new trick? I JUST USED THIS FEATURE TO WRITE THIS POST! How cool is this?
The only thing that you need to use this keyboard is your mouse!

WE NEED TO RETURN To THE USE OF TROLLEY BUSES.

There used to be trolley buses here in the Cleveland area,parts of the area went to this system after the trolley cars were discontinued.the buses looked like regular buses but were powered by electric motors and over head wires as seen in this picture. Maybe this system need to be brought back to the cities as part of the mass transit solutions.

when stressed out,Just tell everyone and everything to...
