We can ride the Boogie, Part 3

C. Everett Koop, (after whom this crud I have is probably named, oh sorry, that’s the croup, will probably tell you I’m at a critical stage in the development of a possible infection where mucus production), yeah, I’m going to leave it at that:

“It’s snowing. Tomorrow is a late-start day.
Channel 5 is predicting 5+ inches of snow for Sunday.”

“Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, (Proverbs 11:28)
but the righteous will flourish like a green leaf.”

“With only a one-in-a-million chance that humans aren’t the cause of global warming, it’s obvious that we need to dramatically reduce our emissions of carbon dioxide, experts say.”

Just What I Needed, Part 2

“When the movie Spy Hard came out,”
the Nostalgia Critic begins to ask, “Is Parody Dead?”

Bennigan (he got a headache from laughing hard) and I watched The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear, just what I needed.

“A friend loves at all times, (Proverbs 17:17)
and a brother is born for adversity.”

“To make you wait. Here is a vector of an adorable Sunset Shimmer,
that I forgot for 2 years in my folders”

Tho MLP:FIM will no longer b airing past S9 I want all of u to remember who u are now, what u’ve become, & carry in your Hearts the Love, Meaning of Friendship, & b that example to yourself, your friends, & the rest of the world. U all & the show will forever live on in my Heart.

I missed the Party 065

Through the Fiesta Movement, I am friends with Charlie Brumfield on Facebook, a member of the Dallas Warlords, “Made to Kansas City just in time for snow!”

Technically, their event is today in Kingman, Missouri, two hours from where I live in Kansas City, so I missed the party.

“Against you, you only,
have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight,
so that you may be justified in your words
and blameless in your judgment. (Psalms 51:4)”

As a consolation, I would be on-line in time for a live event tonight, like the premiere of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Live Q&A: #AskAndreaMLP, Ravendesk Games on Twitch and the following:

Significant other of actor and voice talent Peter New,
Amy played Elder Scrolls, Overwatch and other games on a live stream:

New appreciated my references to the live-action scenes in “Pinkie Pride,” “ScoobyNatural,” and that question from Barbara Walters, “If You Were a Tree What Kind of Tree Would You Be?”

Turns out, “Due to the inclement weather shows for Friday,” so I’m not going in tonight after all, “February 15 has been canceled,” and I need to spend some time with my family.

The Whiskey Ain’t Workin’

The following can also be found on a page formerly called Asahina Mikuru:

“Things ABOUT GUYS: agree? :)
1. Guys hate sluts.
2. ‘Hey, are you busy?’ or ‘Are you doing something?’ ~ two phrases guys open with to stop from stammering on the phone.
3. Guys may be flirting around all day but before they go to sleep, they always think about the girl they truly care about.
4. Before they call, guys try to plan out a little about what they’re gonna say so there aren’t awkward pauses, but once he’s on the phone he forgets it all and makes it up as he goes.
5. Guys go crazy over a girl’s smile.
6. Guys will do anything just to get you to notice him.
7. Guys hate it when you talk about your ex-boyfriend or ex love-interest. Unless they’re going for the ‘let her complain to you and then have her realize how wonderful and nice you are’ method.
8. A guy who likes you wants to be the only guy you talk to.
9. Boyfriends need to be reassured often that they’re still loved.
10. Don’t talk about your guy friends to your boyfriend.
11. Guys get jealous easily.
12. Guys are more emotional than they’d like people to think.
13. Giving a guy a hanging message like ‘You know what?!.. uh ...nevermind...’ would make him jump to a conclusion that is far from what you are thinking. And he’ll assume he did something wrong and he’ll obsess about it trying to figure it out.
14. Guys are good flatterers when courting but they usually stammer when they talk to a girl they really like.
15. Guys hate asking parents for money to buy girls presents. So they come up with ideas like saving their lunch money for a week. But it never works because guys are always hungry so they end up asking the parents for money anyway.
16. Girls are guys’ weaknesses.
17. Guys are very open about themselves.
18. It’s good to test a guy first before you trust him. But don’t let him wait too long.
19. Your best friend, whom your boyfriend seeks help from about his problems with you may end up being admired by your boyfriend.
20. If a guy tells you about his problems, he just needs someone to listen to him. You don’t need to give advice.
21. A usual act that proves that the guy likes you is when he teases you.
22. Guys love you more than you love them if they are serious in your relationships.
23. Guys will brag about anything.
24. Guys use words like hot or cute to describe girls. We rarely use beautiful. If a guy uses that, he likes you.
25. Guys think WAY too much. One small thing a girl does, even if she doesn’t notice it can make the guy think about it for hours, trying to figure out what it meant.
26. Guys, seek advice from girls not other guys. Because most guys think alike, so if one guy’s confused, then we’re all confused.
27. Any guy could write out a rulebook or advice book for flirting, but no guy can write out a book about relationships.
28. Try to be as straightforward as possible.
29. A guy has to experience rejection, because if he’s too-good-never-been-busted, never been in love and hurt, he won’t be mature and grown up.
30. If the guy does something stupid in front of the girl, he will think about it for the next couple days or until the next time he spends time with the girl.
31. No matter how much guys talk about asses and boobs, personality is key.
32. Guys learn from experience not from the romance books that girls read and take as their basis of experience.
33. Guys worry about the thin line between being compassionate and being whipped.
34. If a guy looks unusually calm and laid back, he’s probably faking it and is spazzing inside.
35. When a guy says he is going crazy about the girl, he really is. Guys rarely say that.
36. When a guy asks you to leave him alone, he’s just actually saying, ‘Please come and listen to me.’
37. Guys don’t really have final decisions.
38. If a guy starts to talk seriously, listen to him. It doesn’t happen that often, so when it does, you know something’s up.
39. If your best guy friend seems to avoid you or is never around when you’re with your boyfriend, he’s probably jealous and likes you.
40. When a guy looks at you for longer than a second, he’s definitely thinking something.
41. Guys like femininity, not feebleness.
42. Guys don’t like girls who punch harder than they do.
43. A guy has more problems than you can see with your naked eyes.
44. Don’t be a snob. Guys can be intimidated and give up easily.
45. Everything in moderation. Put on makeup, wear perfume. Just not too much.
46. Guys talk about girls more than girls talk about guys.
47. Guys hate rejection, but they hate being led on even more.
48. Guys really think that girls are strange and have unpredictable decisions and are MAD confusing but somehow are drawn even more to them.
49. A guy would give his left nut to be able to read a girl’s mind for a day.
50. No guy can handle all his problems on his own. He’s just too stubborn to admit it
51. Not all guys are assholes. Just because ONE is a jackass doesn’t mean he represents ALL of them.

With a Little Help from My Friends

“Turn right toward Springfield,” a year ago last Sunday, was only third epic road trip I have gone on with Denton (I don’t think I’ve talked to him this year).

“Leno Bike 1,” an episode from American Chopper, clues me to Denton’s birthday, a week after Jay Leno’s first appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. Scott, elder statesman and a mutual friend of Josh and Travis, has a birthday Monday and is the same age as the SuperBowl. Luke was born near the last episode of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Josh and Travis have birthdays in late March and early April.

“‘Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.’ (Matthew 5:10)”

Year of the Pig! (Animated) by Szafir87

Bennigan and I finished KILLING BITES, and caught up The Rising of The Shield Hero (Rising of The Shield Hero Had No Outrage Controversies in Japan, Says Kadokawa Producer). Josh and I caught up The Grand Tour (Jeremy Clarkson shares eye roll-worthy response to Will Young’s homophobia accusations).

Reparations are coming.

“The ‘Green New Deal’ Is Even Crazier Than You Thought…”

Those who underestimate AOC or mock her with false quote memes are going to mock her right into the U.S. Senate.

She understands her base, and emotionally resonates with them the way Trump does his. She's a force. Attack her policies with facts, not personal insults. — John Cardillo (@johncardillo) February 9, 2019

“Whoever works his land will have plenty of bread,
but he who follows worthless pursuits lacks sense. (Proverbs 12:11)”

I need a new hobby

Notice, not a peep from AOC since she was linked to laundering $1 Million ... DEMS told her to sit down and shut up. Now she will owe Pelosi for getting her out of the mess and she's too GREEN (New DEAL) to understand Pelosi is the one who leaked the Intel to put her in the mess.

We apologize 034

“You going to brave the ice today?”

“Leaving before we know where we are going is a profound mistake,” police urge, “Raytown drivers may be ticketed without snow tires or chains on vehicles,” so to paraphrase Eric Cartman, “Screw you guys. I’m stayin’ home.”

“NASA’s Day of Remembrance: Three tragedies that shook the space program”

The world is annoyingly incomprehensible right now, “Perception Vs. Reality Regarding St. Louis and Oakland NFL Fans.” I want to go back to bed! We apologize for this error.

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way,
though the mountains are moved into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam, (Psalms 46:1-3)
though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah”

“There are no two words in the English language more harmful than ‘good job’. But the opposite is true!” I was encouraged Monday by a meeting with my insurance agent and another my supervisor; my rates are going down in June, and I certainly know my job well enough (attendance and quality are also good) to seek a transfer if I would like one.

My father and sister were ones to brave
the roads today to get a new microwave oven.

Someone replied in the Rooster Teeth group, “when people have nothing of value to add to an argument the always jump to Grammer or spelling as an argument,” and I left out two words from “Looking for a Party Crowd,” so I am also not perfect; however, “On the Spot appears to be a series, what you have said sounds like you would instantly like unpopular opinions, so like this, like it now.”

90.9 The Bridge ices before Road

Word of mouth has again influenced me and I am listening to 90.9 The Bridge, listener-supported public radio, where Lisa Loeb was interviewed ahead of her performance last weekend at the Carlsen Center. Anticipating worsening weather, I left work early tonight.

“Lenexa plow truck turns over after hitting ice in Shawnee: If you don’t have to get out, School bus overturns at Kansas City apartment complex”

“Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you;
bind them around your neck; (Proverbs 3:3-4)
write them on the tablet of your heart.
So you will find favor and good success in the sight of God and man.”

Lunaaaaa by Leafywind

“I am the Kaleidoscope of the mind. I impart light, color and perpetual motion.
I think, I see, I am moved by electric fluidity.
Constant only in inconstancy
I am unshackled by mundane holds,
Unchecked by sturdy, unbinding goals.
I run unimpeded through virgin paths.
My spirit is unconquered-
My soul forever free.
I AM THE HORSE.”

“It’s going to be like The Day After Tomorrow out there,”
remarked a coworker to another.
“Friday,” I replied, “since today is Wednesday.”
“The movie,” he said sternly.
“Friday.”
“Ice Cube is not in this,” he declared and walked away.

It’s a b**** out there

“Multiple crashes reported on the south side of metro as road conditions deteriorate,”
as a coworker observed, “It’s a b**** out there.”

That’s why I turned back home only ten miles away from work, “KC metro in winter weather advisory until noon Wednesday,” would have taken at least another half hour; today has not gone as planned, so decided to not sit in traffic and visit Ottawa University - Kansas City to possible return next session.

“The heart of man plans his way, (Proverbs 16:9)

Vector 36 - Human Sunset by WhalePornoz

“Los Angeles has second-worst TV rating in history for a market with a team in Super Bowl,” while I was meeting Scott and Josh at Denny’s to play Magic: The Gathering; we watched anyway.

“It is just getting to the point where we are not getting much play when Scott destroys us so quickly,” observed Travis, last week.

Later, on Monday, Scott played some low and mid-tier decks and Travis won. Scott had played the deck on Sunday and Josh was receptive to learn its mechanics; however, I was too indignant.

“Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, (Matthew 23:12) and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.”

“But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared,
he saved us, not because of works are done by us in righteousness,
but according to his own mercy, (Titus 3:4-7)
by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,
whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior,
so that being justified by his grace we might
become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.”

Battle Royale (Kemono Friends)

“The one with the sharpest fangs wins,” she kicked like a mule and bit like a crocodile, “That’s what KILLING BITES is,” so Bennigan and I were reminded, sometimes twice in an episode yesterday.
