Just Sayin'
Nearly Everything July 31 to September 10. Not including Oakland High School Spirit of 1976 Reunion or my reconnecting with De Ocampo Memorial College of Optometry Class of 1984.
A short explanation of FB posts and comments... Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey...Stuff
Facebook is a medium to pass on information and opinions. It is not a 'thing'!
As with any group of more than one person, there are rules of conduct to follow...everything should be just fine. There is no need to apologize for anything. If you need to explain yourself, you are speaking to the wrong audience. Just move on.
Item: The alpha-texty-numeric character limit for a status has been raised to 500. I guess FBHQ finally figured out the meaning of '420'
FB is an experiment in which we are given unlabeled tubes and vials >(:[)]
News Feed, see updates from people with whom you've recently interacted DOES NOT MEAN only a few of your friends will actually see your posts. Whoever at FB Central that worded this is an oxy[gen-breathing] moron.
The first part of the statement states what you see because of your inaction. The second part says what others see from your same inaction. Two completely different consequences, the ending not supportive of the first. I did the math.
In my post last night, I told you a monkey in FB Central was an idiot. Here's the proof.
Another FB change... your Wall is in the order of the most recent comments and posts with no comments. Then at some point it continues to the usual order of posts.
As a retaliation to the joke "The ESC key was removed from all prison computer keyboards" I kept hitting the DEL key, but the politicians just wouldn't go away.
I see that this is "the most engaging page on Facebook" according to Jesus Daily I have 10 friends that Like this.
This reminds me of FB stalkers! "Please accept my friend request. We DID know each other! Really (:({)]
True FB friends will Like, comment, and occasionally chat you. For those that just browse, what am I, google?
WARNING to all kids: 10 Ways To Embarrass Your Kids On Facebook We adult supervisor and finaciers (paremts) now have the social media tools to make your on-line life a living hell! So behave in real life.
Parents...be careful. Some of these may get you arrested. Posting baby bath/potty training photos, friending minors, upsetting other parents not 'in' on the joke.
G+ is not my style, since I pretty much keep everything out in the open. [Hey! stop looking at my belt!] If I wanted to arrange a private party, I'd get a room [FB Messages]. OK this piqqued my curiosity and she's cute. But if I have to hear "Google plus" one more time, she will replace "Friday" as the most annoying wanna-be-Disneyette!
They say that life is a circle. But that ain't the way that I found it.
A dying grandma tells her grandchild, " I want to leave you with my farm. Included are the barn, livestock, tractor, field and its harvest, and $22,398.705.78 in cash."
"Oh grandma, you are so generous!" said the grandchild. "I didn't even know you had a farm. Where is it?"
With her last breath, she whispered, "Facebook..."
FB is like jail. You have a profile picture, you sit around all day and write on walls, and you get poked by guys you don't really know. [more jokes about FB]

WARNING there are many '-jacking' scams. Your friend's "See this..." link to a video, may not have been sent by them. Open it, and you may keep getting motifications all the time,or worse! This is the REAL item referred to in a latest scam. PG rated and not part of FB.
I looked up a FBer's profile photo and this is what I got. For my neck to be redder, I'd need to be hanged!
If you don't get a timely response from me, blame it on FB lag. If it takes 4 or more hours, I just got up. If you don't hear from me in 48 hours, I didn't.

Each US citizen owes $47,000 of which each citizen of China is to recieve $1,125.
Fk'n blood suckers! PG&E should be prosecuted for eight murders! As a side note,
why are we being charged more for their not making a profit on the previous meters? as well as the disposal?
I say again, PG&;E should be prosecuted for the murder of eight people. They should not be a forgotten statistic. Instead there are lies, spreading of the costs and any fines to customers!
In the past year Pink Girls and Elephants has had transformers blowing, manholes exploding, neighborhoods stinking, small town lands poisoned, and radiating smart meters. Don't talk to me about safety!
BART should not be blocked. Disrupting transportation of any kind should be deemed an act of terrorism. Take it to BART HQ! Journalistic vultures deserve to get their camera shoved back into their face.
If the troops are not supposed to be active in the US (just like the CIA), and we want them out of all the '-istans', where are we going to put them?

Yep, I'm the one who bumped this up to 51% Honestly though, I am not too disappointed in him. I never expected much from him to begin with. I voted for him, only because I didn't want dumb and dumbest in office. Most of those surveyed were Democrats out of a job and Republicans who didn't need to work.
Even with grumbling doubts, Americans, even those that voted for him, are expecting miracles from the president. Again they have him confused with some other brown-skinned messiah.
Oprah and Rev Jackson, go cry another river and jump in it. I am not making a racist comment. I am NOT a racist. I HATE individuals who use race as an excuse for anything.
For those that are interested, I will be going into labor on Monday.
Abolish Labor Day! It is unconstitutional. It discriminates against those of us that don't have work.
Om the way to the family picnic, I saw neighbors chatting on the sidewalks, doing major yard work, and cleaning :-) I hope no one ate too much...
I am reminded by FB, On This Day In 2010, I posted..."Happy Labor Day to to all of you working people!

Anita Tarce My dear friends from California, take note... we had our earthquake in Virginia today and we were told we can go home early!!! When it snows... DC stood still... when it quakes... we get to go home early... what else is next? Such wimps!!!
Rodney Rivera To prove my point, we just had an earthquake 1 1/2 hours ago.
I texted my niece to see if they were ok. She responded "It wasn't so big. I thought it was a cat running across the roof again."
I believe in Free Speech, but not in my face. I understand the anger against BART police, but don't take it out on passengers. Get between me and the door I am going to, I will push past you! The guy who said there are many ad signs on the walls to justify bringing their own protest signs is a fkn stupid #%$##! You want to protest? Take it to BART HQ.!

Observations and opinions: Should we invest in the rising foreign currencies of nations trying hard to shore up the US because they are holding on to too much U$D?
How much do you need now to get what you used to get before. I used 1973 as my experiment...simpler times. Measuring Worth - Measures of worth, inflation rates, saving calculator, relative value, worth of a.
I like infographics, but this one is not supported by any facts that I can see (yet). How does the US economic 'freedom' (an qualitative ideal, not a quantitative value) 'fall' compared to a list of nations? What or who is this an ad for... it IS an ad. [

Watched Outer Limits, new series, reminds me of many shows where people of a town are taken over after removing all inhibitions. What's the first thing you would do? Would we survive a Red Hour? or will it become a 6-Minute War?
There are many movie theories why moonlandings stopped when they did. From a Transformers ARK to an international murder coverup to a secret nuclear waste disposal site. The truth is it's to protect us from aliens and bad 1970s fasions.

Oh hell! I had this 45(rpm) back in the day. Oh I already said that. Actually I think it was a 33(rpm). Some of the scenes are from decades later and shouldn't be here (even if they were a prequel). Who can forget the Cantina shuffle?!

Again this only my opinion and not meant as disrespect on those who follow a religion. re canonization and man-elected sainthood...
Matthew 24:24 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect--if that were possible.
Do you believe everything you see and hear in the news? listen to polititicians and political "experts"? follow mobs whith no thought on how it affects You?
Jeremiah 23:16 This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Do not listen to what the prophets are prophesying to you; they fill you with false hopes. They speak visions from their own minds, not from the mouth of the LORD.
My view on every religious heirarchy and TV evangelist that quotes scriptures to the masses on a regular basis...
Matthew 24:11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.
re Corporations and Congress that control the Military "helping" [themselves] to other countries...
Ezekiel 22:27 Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey; they shed blood and kill people to make unjust gain.
re the worshippers of the temple that is on Wall Street...
Daniel 11:34 When they fall, they will receive [a] little help, and many who are not sincere will join them.
Although it is common practice for most catholics, as in going shopping and going to school, it is not a good idea to go to Mass on an empty stomach. Most are likely to complain and have less to be thankful for. Refer to Exodus BEFORE the Lord provided them with manna.

A fool and a wise man walk into a bar. After a few drinks, the fool stands up, walks away, and says to the bartender "He's paying." The wise man (you) not wanting to make a scene, pays the bill. Motto: don't go to a bar with a politician.
Successful dipomacy is standing on the higher ground, having the most powerful weapons behind you, or having the most money in front of you.
Expect nothing and you will never be disappointed. Easy to compliment others as "You have gone beyond my expectations"... you are being truthful, not condescending.

If you ever want to get even with someone who has offended you, it is best done when you are not angry. It may sound stupid, but think about it. You will be planning with a clear mind.

A pragmatist [like me] takes the glass and drinks it empty;
Most of us though avoid or deny seeing the glass altogether.

It is said that no matter how smart you are, there is somebody smarter. No matter how strong you are, there will be someone stronger. The truth is, no matter how successful you are, you will eventually fail... even once.
Be humble, not arrogant. Be proud, not prideful. The presumption of greatness is not true greatness.
Your child(ren) are smarter than you may think! Give them some credit. But not your card.
It is said to "love thy enemies " I should have no problem with that since I am related to them.

Dorito Pizza Supreme reminds me of McChesney's pizza. Cheese and what is made to simulate meat. They burned the cheese in spots to look and feel like meat. I operated on quite a few.
I do not for a moment believe that the tribes of Isreal were the Lord's only children. Any more than that those not 'of the Church' will not be saved. As with Babel, any attempts at unification are bound to failure. Only the Lord, and those wholeheartedly with the Lord will achieve perfect unity. August 26 at 10:09am
Everything I know, I learned from my classmates. Not our teachers. Claire, Linda, Chu Ping; Myrna, Elena, Josie... and more. You explained the assignments I did not understand, lent me your notes, and let me copy your answers during exams :-) August 23 at 5:53pm via

A reminder and a memory of past friends, seeing some and hearing from others. All of that is good. But regrettably, we all have people we didn't get the chance to say goodbye to.

You are from Alameda when you don't want to go anywhere else because you would have to pass through Oakland.
You are from Berkeley and San Leandro when you ask "Don't you have anything closer than Alameda?"
You Know You're From Alameda, California If... looks like those old enough to remember things from before the 1980s. Thanks for the enlightening link Nate!
You are from Oakland if you didn't know there was an Alameda OR (like me) it was the only beach to go to, and to get the hell out before dark and the drawbridges won't let you out!r.
