My comment about Pres. Obama on the Manhattan Mosque.

I find it amazing that people are forgetting that the right to worship is a LEGAL right. I have read comments on other sites where idiots are saying they will mix bacon grease with the mortar and tell the owners after the building is completed, or urinate on the building every chance he gets should it be built. If these statements were directed at a Catholic, Baptist, or otherwise "Christian" church, there would be such an uproar of indignation.

The Mosque is not being built on 'Ground Zero'. It's going to be built on privately owned property on Manhattan.

And consider this, all those who are screaming incoherencies: One religious group forces another religious group into bending to their will. What will make that bullying group any different than the religious fundamentalists in Middle Eastern countries?

No, I'm not Muslim. I am an American who knows that religious freedom means religious freedom for all. There is nothing illegal about being Muslim. (saying this because you just know there will be some troll who will say "Well, what about Satanists sacrificing humans? What about their religious freedom?" totally forgetting that murder is illegal.)

Again, religious freedom must apply to all, or it's worthless.

Busy Friday

Went to the Perth Zoo with Bunny M . Took many photographs, and brought Lumix FS42 to see how it would fare in very low lighting aka "The Nocturnal House". It has done pretty well. However, it would be better if I had used a tripod or the monopod.

Tomorrow, the cats go to the vet for their yearly check up, so prepping the carriers tonight. Will make for easier "Operation: feline insertion". I am quite sure the vet will be very pleased with the work Dr Sherry did on Ziggy's corneal graft. Then after we bring their angry selves back home, we will set off to PILLAGE!

Power flicker at worst &$%#$@$ moment

I was opening email program to answer someone, and the power flickered just enough to power down the computer.

Everything booted up ok, so I went back to what I had originally started to do, only to find that it wouldn't get past the email programs splash screen. (insert stream of mild bad words here)

But I figured, I would just reinstall the program over itself. Problem persisted. (a few more mild bad words)

Removed all but the Data and Back up folders, and reinstalled... Problem persisted. (insert slightly stronger bad words here).

Deleted the Data folder and voila! Program started, but all my settings were gone. (insert a streak of profanity that would have made a Marines ears burn)

Luckily for me, I had an older back up of the entire program's data files. Only problem is, I have lost some addresses, and some rather important emails. Hence the streak of naughty words.



DHL Driver #36 Redux

She came by again yesterday. Funny thing is, this time she drove part of the way up the drive way this time. And knocked on the door. I answered with "Coming!" and opened the door.

She claims she knocked on the lounge room window, leaned over the gate and said HELLO? and knocked on the front door and again loudly said HELLO.

Uhh, no. Even if I had been in the "To Whom It May Concern Room", I would have heard it. And Sir Keito the Not So Brave would have come running in to hide.

I have a feeling she got verbally reamed. Maybe that drive by card dropping will dwindle.

  • 08:42:05: Listened to Palin talk to a non-fan. Palin's response was the faltering TEAM AMERICA speech. Is that where she is getting her lessons?
