Medication refill

  I got a refill on two of my medications tonight ($40).  I still got enough of my other medication.  

  I put a few extra things on the blog.  I hope I have not over done it.  I like to add new stuff.

New Look for Show Me Blog

Going My Way

 

I just watched "Going My Way" on TV.  It was on one of those religion cable channels that I never watch.  They ran the entire film with out advertisements. I have seen the movie many times.  It is a great feel good movie. 
  There are some great movies on this time of year.

   Ken can not wait to get back to Florida.  He does not like AZ.  Before he returns to FL (December 22) he is going to visit Las Vegas.  He has never been to Las Vegas.  He will start the new job right after the 1st of the year.

  Family:  I have a married daughter that lives in Washington DC.  I have a married daughter that lives in the Dallas TX area.  I have a married son in CA.  I just need to get Ken married off and all my kids will be married.
  I have an ex-wife in Fort Worth TX area.
  I have a lot of cousins in the Kansas City MO area.  Well many of them are all over the United States now.
  My mother's family is in OK and I have lot contact with them.  I need to try and make contact with them. 
  I only have one grand child and that is Russell.  He is Hilary's son.

  I think everyone thinks of family at this time of the year.

IPC Security

  I was doing a search of the Internet.  I ran across a story about IPC Security and Blue Ridge Mall (Kansas City, MO).  I lived in Kansas City and worked security from 1971 to November 0f 1999.  I never heard of IPC when I was in Kansas City.
  I worked for IPC Security here in Miami when I came here.  I quit them but they were getting ready to fire me.  The mall manager found my web site and saw nude photos of me.  He ordered the Director of Security to fire me.  I did not know about that I quit for another reason.
  
  I was doing a search for IPC and trying to see if they have been in court yet over Seaways.  They are using them at malls.  When I saw one in use at Dadeland Mall my feeling was that..yes.. great for getting around..will let the officer see better and be seen and all those sort of things.. But I also felt like they were going to run into someone and those people are going to see green.  I did not find anything but I think it will happen. 

  I did find were a mall shopper was beaten  and robbed at Boca Mall and won $1.08 million.  Won due to poor security.  It did not say who the security company was in the case.  Simon Property Group owns Boca Mall and Dadeland Mall.   

 
  Bug found in mashed potatoes.  I found that a couple is considering a lawsuit against a restaurant, at Dadeland Mall, after they found a bug in their mashed potatoes.
 

  I found this during my search:

 

"In another absurd event, a good friend and co-worker of mine went into
Dadeland Mall with his camera hanging on a strap from his shoulder
because he was afraid it would be stolen out of his parked car.  He had
no intention of taking photos but he was accosted several minutes after
entering the mall by several security guards who called the police when
he objected to the rude behavior and foul language of the security
guards.  The police officer told him to leave the premises and not come
back.

What bullshit!

DB"

  A number of the security officers that I worked with at the mall talked about people breaking the law by taking photos.  I attempted a number of times to explain to them that it was not a law but it was a mall rule.  They did not believe me or understand me and I am sure now if you go over to the mall and try and take a photo your going to have a security officer tell you that your committing a crime and tell you that your going to get arrested. 
  It might be a good way to make some Christmas money.  Smile

  Well all the searching on the Internet was worth it.
  I found a great blog: Rangelife
  He talks about the alligator problem here.  He tells all about the crack smoking guy that was attacked by an alligator the other day.  He talks about Mark Foley.  Check out the blog.

  Today the U. S. Citizenship and Immigration Service announced the release of a new naturalization exam.
  Read about it and see how many answers you can answer.
U. S. Citizenship 

  Today Russell did not have to work.  He got up and left to go to the mall and watch a couple of movies.  It is almost 8 PM and he is not home yet.  I am not sure.. maybe he is watching more than two movies. 
  I wish I could get him to write a review for the blog.  He saw two movies a couple of days ago.   

Miami is a "Third World Country"

  Rep Tom Tancredo (Republican of Colorado) spent a weekend at The Breakers in Palm Beach.  He was here to attend a gathering of conservative activists.  He told a conservative online news site that Miami "has become a Third World country."

Dreams

  Russell went to work yesterday at 3 pm and he got home today at almost 4 am.  That is a long day.  He has today off so that will help him.
  I stayed up until Russell got home and I am tired now. 

  When I did go to bed I was having dreams.  I dreamed I was with the Roloff family for some reason.  It seems I was visiting.   Well in my dream I am of no help time after time.  Matt gets to the farm and it is raining very hard and I am already at the farm.  I say I will go out and help him carry things in and I look for a rain coat and find it and then go out side and he is not there.  He has driven to the back.  It is like that in my dream ..every time I try to help I am too late, too slow or I am no help.
 

Cheating YouTube

  I have 40 videos on YouTube.  I think that out of that 40 that maybe 10 of them are interesting and worth watching. 

  We Need a Racist Rating System

  The Story of Joe Wabash

  I listed two above.  Of the 10 videos that I think are good I don't think any of them has more than 150 hits.  Sure I have a video that about 13000 people viewed but it is not one of my better videos.
 
  I have watched 1,286 YouTube videos.  Some videos that are very poor get thousands of hits right away.  The more hits a video gets the more people watch it.
  Yes you see where this is headed don't you.
  People are cheating on YouTube.  They post a video and then run a scrip or pull other tricks to run up the number of viewer of the video.  Then when the number gets high it gets listed high on the YouTube list and people see those high number of viewers and they start to view it.
  Some of the YouTube people, those that post videos, are getting very upset and attempting to get even with the cheaters.
  It is too bad when people cheat.  I want to see how videos do for real.  Of course I wonder what part of that 1.5 billion dollars that YouTube got from Google was because of those cheaters.

   If you want to read a little about the YouTube cheating then check out Will Video for Food.  The author of the blog seems to have a thing for YouTube.  So he comments on it often.  He also has the full story on LonelyGirl15.  He does an excellent job with his blog.  It is worth reading.  There is a video site called metacafe that he seems to like.  I will have to check out that site.
