That didn't last long...

The damn noise is back in my car. Guy said it would last the lifetime
of the car. It lasted 2 1/2 days... Then there was the miserable
delivery to the old coot who wanted 5 cokes.

My brother flies in tonight. I hope he's not too annoying. At least
he will be with me only couple nights... But he always want to get
serious and "talk." Fuck "talk"

I think he is less annoying since he got the sleep apnea machine. He
has it very bad. And he actually is underweight. I thought it was
mostly an overweight person's problem. I think he was sleep deprived
before the machine and so not exactly "mentally alert" There were
conversations where he would ask me the same thing he had asked 5
minutes before.

Funny stuff. I'd love to see the machine. I'm sure you'll have
some kind of complaint about it before long. You are no longer happy,
you say. I predicted that. But look on the bright side, you almost
went one full day without complaining. Keep working on it, one day at
a time. Ok, one hour at a time. Just keep plugging away until one
day you go a whole day without bitching. That will give you the drive
to try to make it two days. Then three. Then a week. Then a year.
Then forever. And then when you're about to die you finally bitch,
"But God, why did you have to make me happy all these years just to
take it away now when I'm really beginning to enjoy it? Why? Why?
Why? For the love of God in living fucking heaven, WHY?"

Can you imagine his brother? His mother actually had another
child!?!?
Was she insane?

The whole family was nuts and remains nuts to this day. Sad thing
is that as humans we are all related, so in effect Somebody's brother
is our brother too. So please show some compassion and let's see if
we can't turn this thing around and make the world a better place for
all mankind - or I'll blow your fucking brains out.

So the airline lost his bag. Your family is all losers. You know we
are all losers but we don't post it constantly. Do like the rest of
us - pretend you are a winner. Try it.

I never pretend to be a winner or a loser. I don't pretend

I agree with this stick, I mean post.

btw, my brother asked for a favor yesterday when getting ready to
leave... He wanted to keep the shirt I loaned him.

Reminds me of the time, someone took my potato. I had two at work
(raw, uncooked or washed) and someone asked about them. I joking
said: you can have one. And she took it! Not too much later, she
was fired. Apparently, her and her husband were stealing digital
cameras and other things from the company.

What are you gonna do, kill someone over a potato? I can see
you in court, "But Your Honor, he took my potato." And the judge
says, "Wait a minute, why was this not divulged by the prosecution?"
He is informed by the prosecutor that they didn't think it mattered
whether it was a potato or some other object, the defendant still
committed murder. The judge says, "A potato is different. Why I
remember even as a child wanting to kill my own brother for stealing
my potato skin off my plate after I'd already eaten the white inside
part. I always loved the skins with butter melted in them. And he
took it and I wanted to kill him and probably would have had our
father not intervened. As a result I am forced at this time to
dismiss the case." Then standing and pounding the podium with his
gavel he declares, "Somebody, you are free to go", then removes his
black robe for all to see he is wearing only a tee shirt beneath with
the words, "I love potatoes" stitched onto the front.

Why did somebody have a potato at work? Why did the potato cross the
road? The road crossed it first!

I spell potato without the e.

today, I am neither happy nor unhappy. Though a bit sad that my
brother is gone... I don't like when people leave. It always seems
like more people are leaving than arriving in my life. But that
doesn't make sense. There should be an equilibrium.

You are sad that your brother left. The equilibrium comes from
your brother being glad. You are sad, he is glad. Also, had he
stayed, how long a time before a potentially deadly takes place, where
the danger of you or your brother getting killed extends to neighbors
and even those visiting your neighbors. A good thing he left when he
did. When yesterday dissolves away and fades into tomorrow, just
remember you made it through alive and should be grateful for it and
glad to be alive and to know that yesterday was one more successful
hurdle on the road leading to who the fuck knows where.

I was on diet. Would eat a medium microwaved potato without toppings
when hungry and wanted a snack. It worked. And who doesn't like to
have a potato or two lying around in the office. Brings back memories
of Mr Potato Head. Potatos are genial, happy, fun loving creatures.

Most of the time, yes - but believe me, you don't want to be
around them when they're crying.

I've seen them with onions. Hard to keep a dry eye when those two get
together!

It's a great marriage. The onions make the overly-happy potatoes
cry, and the potatoes make the overly-sad onions happy. They blend
and meet in the middle, a perfect marriage, one so rare and pure that
it is rarely matched in the human world.

What if the onion is depressed all the time and refuses to get a job
and help pay the bills?

Is that all that matters to you, someone paying your bills? What
about love? What about compassion? What about dignity? Where are
the virtues that made this country great? If my onion was depressed
and crying all the time it would not need to go out and get a job
because I'd put it to work myself as a kicking stool - you know, just
something to boot around when I come home from a hard day's work, the
same way a lot of guys come home and slap the wife around.

I have no idea and that's the way I like it. What a luxury it is
to talk and have nothing to say. I love it.
