It's supposed to hurt! It's science !

Pondering how to get my shit together.... 

Just some of the mystically weird things that start
happening the older you get?
Hand Bruises--
You just kinda wake up with them
having no concept of how you hurt yourself???
Eyebrow hair---
Everything else is shrinking with the
exception of eyebrow hair...
which when older grows at the rate of
an alien life form invading a space ship in the movies..

The religious fanatic, Ark Encounter amusement park
in Kentucky just fucked over the county and the state.
Yeah-Yup-Yes
I predicted this huge fuck-up--
in previous blogs..
This state supported, religious delusion, amusement park,
 is probably my favorite 
 Murican' moment.
Ken Ham,
who believes the earth is 6000 years old,
that dinosaurs co-existed with Jesus and 
 the instigator of all this, has pulled a scam by 
selling the park back to his own
religious church group for ten bucks..
Ark-theme-park-trashes-press-for-reporting-hes-ducking-taxes?
therefore avoiding any taxes or debts owed
to the state and county his boondoggle exists in..
Then he pulls a TRUMP blaming the press
for actually telling the truth!
Drone footage of this ARK insanity's parking lot
shows attendance is a bit slow as well...
which probably explains why Ham is pulling
a fast one on his State and County supporters.
This was bound to happen,
the state of Kentucky and county gave Ham millions both in
cash and tax breaks to build this anti-science Disneyland
 against any type or form of common sense.
I was going to say that I feel sorry for the people
of Kentucky for getting screwed over---
since they are a poor state scrambling to get by..
but--
then i remembered that Kentucky backed
County Clerk Kim Davis
who refused to provide gay couples 
marriage licenses...
based on her "religious convictions" ???
(which now Kentucky has to pay 224,000 dollars in legal
fees to the couple she refused to provide a license to)
Kentucky-taxpayers-gay-marriage
So--
Kentucky you deserve the screwing you get by these religious fanatics.. 
since you obviously refuse to wise the fuck up...

Am I going home....
Said the six members of Burundi Robotics team....
who showed up in the US for a Robotics competition..
then--immediately---poof--disappeared..
Two of the team are apparently already enjoying Canada.
two members of Burundi robotics team spotted crossing into Canada
 You'd run away from Burundi as fast as you
could as well---if you ever got a chance to get out...
Burundi is the country equivalent of a shit hole buffet...
It's problems run the gauntlet from
insane ethnic cleansing to massive corruption 
to having foreign relief aid supply 42% of 
it's gross national product---?
 87% of the population lives in an 
an extreme rural lifestyle...?
Yeah it's a real vacation spot--
There is no way I can blame these kids for
doing their best to disappear into either the US
or Canada--
Although, 
if these guys are real, robot smart guys
the remaining 4 of them on the lam 
  will get the fuck out of the US asap.. 
and get all their asses to Canada.
We're lucky Canada is there--many of us
may need their kindness before this is all through...
Not just the Burundi Robotics team...

Afghanistan ----
Is there anything it cannot fuck up?
Like using our money
to buy what we used to call Gucci-flage..
General Abdul Rahim Wardak
 bought 93 million dollars worth of 
camouflage with American money
OFF THE FUCKING INTERNET !
Luckily the inspector general stopped the
purchases after between 23 and 28 million dollars
of this shit was delivered...
(yeah we were real lucky???)
The best part of this head shaking circumstance is that
the camo purchased is woodland--style
Afghanistan is 2% forest..98% desert..
take a look at how well this Gucci-flage blends into
the sandy ground---?
You can barely make these guys out eh?
The best part is that of course we had enough
desert camo in stock to outfit all these turds.
At literally zero expense...
When the Afghan national army are not busy 
shooting our guys while they are trying to train them--
they want to look good while doing it !
At our expense of course...
16 years of non-stop combat in this disaster of 
what i will charitably call a country and incredibly
we will never wise up and walk away from
this life and money eating shit-hole because
of the angry old men we have in charge,
wanting to play emperor---
We should be slapped for being so 
incredibly stupid...

Trying to build a solo guitar act is 
tough...
Unless you want to be the angst-ridden folk guy
hammering bummer songs out on an acoustic guitar,
Which most gigs really don't want..
So I have to use all the technology that could
possibly help create a sound bigger
 than one puny human on stage...
I am attempting to put the finishing touches
on my act to hopefully gig in the fall..
August will be the big practice month..
do or die...
These next couple of years will be my 
last chance at playing live to an audience..

In the search for a sound of more than 
one guy with a guitar---
i just ordered:
Donner yellow fall delay pedal...
to add depth to my guitar sound..
Ordered used: 
hopefully a bit of written advice..

Conspicuous consumption makes our love stronger

A bit better---
I am currently in one of those zones..
where-in every project i attempt creates a
subsequent disaster.
Recently---
Trying to fix or improve an element of
the homestead has only resulted in multiple
injuries to myself and has created a slew of
additional tasks because of fuck-ups..
I should just sit down and do nothing
until this sphere of destruction surrounding
me has passed...

I continue to practice multiple days a week
working on the set list in case i actually
ever gig again prior to death?
Guitar students are, as usual, coming and going
on a random basis...

so situation normal--

Things that have suddenly appear in my brain--
I was wondering why America is still all
fucked up on religion.
Especially when Europeans have risen
above all this internal religious nonsense..
Then I remembered that 
our country was first colonized by insane religious fanatics,
who were chased the fuck out of normal 
European society--
and moved to the "new" world..
Kinda explains why our society has never
matured out of our bizarre religious stage...eh?
I was thinking that----
if you work through the anti-abortion fanatics
 bizarre attempts at logic for their beliefs and actions
 to a logical conclusion..
well then---
Ok...
that's enough thinking for awhile...

Space Corps--
FUCKING REALLY???
With all the problems we face in the United States
poison water in Flint
zero health care..
the massive wealth inequality..
cutting meals on wheels..
Republican Congressman Mike Rogers wants to build
a US military Space Corps.???

Rogers is from Alabama. 
(why does that make perfect sense somehow?)
In Alabama everything obviously must be perfect since...
their Congressman can spare the time to worry about defending
the the US from, well the---universe..?
The fucking street light on my corner doesn't work!!!
How can we have a space army when i can't
get a streetlight fixed????
Rogers calls for separate space corps within the air force
Obviously Congressman Rogers must be
a silent partner in the astronaut diaper business 
or some such shit--because the only way
you pretend something like this boondoggle is needed, 
is when there is a massive need...
 the need to show yourself da money!
Nobody in the Joint Chiefs wants this--
Nobody at NASA wants this--
Nobody living paycheck to paycheck wants this?
So why the fuck is this passing the House of Representatives?
Minimum wage increases don't stand a chance 
of even being considered in Washington..
but billions for an unwanted Space Corps...?
Sure no problem.....

My mini credit card tool kit--
knife, magnifying glass, compass,
can opener, screwdrivers, and rulers.
I've just got to figure out how and when to
carry it?

After a run of project watch-building
failures i stopped to regroup for awhile..
I miss the order and discipline of working
on a project watch however so--
I just discovered and ordered a sterile,
Marina orange face--
I am planning on getting back into
watch making this coming
fall/winter...
so this will be the dial face on 
one of my upcoming project watches..


George Romero
the Grandfather of the Zombie Film
has passed...
rip George Romero creator of Night of the Living Dead
Maryyam Mirzakhani
The only woman to win the Field Medal for
mathematics has passed away.
Mathematicians throughout history seem to have tough lives..
you wouldn't think so but---
they do---really..
Maryam Mirzakhani

On Netflix streaming--
French Detectives vs. Serial killing cult?
Currently in a Binge on DVD
with Season 2 of the Expanse...
