Cynicism

The constant information overload on Michael Jackson death/memorial is overbearing. There are far more serious matters that are not even discussed by the mainstream media, such as starvation of the people in Darfur.
Let me return to the MJ fiasco and outline some hypocritical annoyances.
-why is the Rev Al Sharpton and Rev Jesse Jackson turning MJ's death into a racial situaton ?
-why are these two talking about MJ, as if he was the second coming of Martin Juther King Jr?
-many people are now coming out of the woodwork and having something to say about MJ, most of them great stuff. Where the %^&*() were these same people when he had the troubles with the law, they all were silent. The hypocrites did not open their mouths to support him when he was alive.
-former security people (they have not worked for MJ for 2 years) now have something to say about something they heard. Well, piss on you too fellow, why didn't you say something two years ago? Are you looking for a book deal now?
-a nurse practitioner (or whatever she is called), now has something to say about MJ asking her to get him restricted medications. Why didn't she say something at the time, but wait until after her meal ticket dried up to sprout her diatribe?

They are all a bunch of hypocritical, publicity grabbing, egotistical, selfish, dollar induced bastards.

"Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him;
The evil that men do lives after them,
The good is oft interred with their bones"


RIP MJ

Caution... They Walk Among Us!

This came across my desk, and I thought I would share.



Some guy bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: 'Free to good home. You want it, you take it.' For three days the fridge sat there without even one person looking twice at it. He eventually decided that people were too un-trusting of this deal.
It looked too good to be true, so he changed the sign to read: 'Fridge for sale $50.'

The next day someone stole it!

***They walk amongst us!***
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


*One day I was walking down the beach, with some friends, when someone shouted....'Look at that dead bird!' Someone looked up at the sky and said...'where?'

***They walk among us!!***
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

While looking at a house, my brother asked the estate agent which direction was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him up every morning. She asked, 'Does the sun rise in the north?' When my brother explained that the sun rises in the east, and has for sometime, she shook her head and said, 'Oh, I don't keep up with that stuff'

***They Walk Among Us!!***
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we overheard one of the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn she got on her weekend drive to the beach. She drove down in a convertible, but 'didn't think she'd get sunburned because the car was moving'.

***They Walk Among Us!!!!***
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car it's designed to cut through a seat belt if she gets trapped She keeps it in the trunk.

***They Walk Among Us!!!!!***
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring attached to an earring by a chain. My friend said, 'Wouldn't the chain rip out every time she turned her head?' I had to explain that a person's nose and ear remain the same distance apart no matter which way the head is turned...

***They Walk Among Us!!!!!!! ***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area. So I went to the lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up. She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional and I was in good hands. 'Now,' she asked me, 'Has your plane arrived yet?'...
(I work with professionals like this.)

***They Walk Among Us!!!!!!!!***
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While working at a pizza parlour I observed a man ordering a small pizza to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding. 'Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don’t think I'm hungry enough to eat 6 pieces.

***Yep, They Walk Among Us, too.!!!!!!!!

Sadly, not only do they walk among us, they also reproduce !!!!

Why waste my breath

This "Diaspora in Search of Power" seminar was held in Toronto and I wonder who, what, why, where and when.
Who wants the political power
What type of power do they (diaspora)really want.
Why do they strive for this elusive power.
Where do they want the power to come from
When do they want to get this power.

"Caribbean nationals are faced with the Canadian multi-cultural dilemma: old Anglo-Canada wants newer arrivals to fall in line with a certain pecking order of power and authority while accommodating silos of cultural diversity. The old guard accepts turbans in the legislature and in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police but no one will be happy with an RCMP of Gurkhas."

Feel free to read the entire article Diaspora in Search of Power

Change Agents are difficult to implement and "change" maybe seen as a threat to the establishment's comfort zone. The ship of "change" will take a long time to turn in the right direction.

Selling snow to Eskimos


The phrase "carrying coal to newcastle" has similiar but not the same meaning.
"Newcastle on Tyne in England was a well known coal mining area and the UK's first coal exporting port. Taking coal there was an archetypally pointless activity"
The rest of the exposure can be read Carry col to Newcastle

This article Importing US made Ja. Patties to Jamaica is a perfect axiom for the phrase "Carrying Coal To Newcastle"

This additional article speaks volumes Imported Patty Row

This entire storm appears to be wrong on many levels.
-Currency exchange, when the Island is broke.
-support (or lack thereof) of the local Juci and Tastee.
-Frozen Patties in JA. (give me a patty and a coco bread)

Is this what is known as "selling snow to Eskimos"?

Tweets on Twitter



The security on Twitter is suspect.

"Despite the popularity, Twitter still a lot to do when it comes to securing the platform"

Please take the time to read 3 Ways Twitter Security Fails

"Some Twitter users received scam tweets, or direct messages, to visit certain sites or blogs. The URL in the message redirected users to a bogus login page in an attempt to steal login credentials for a phishing scheme."

Read the entire article Twitter Security Hacks

"Identity theft, much like with Facebook and other Web 2.0 tools, it is always possible people are sharing too much information, ...... which could be useful for the purpose of identity theft or other illegal activity."

Phishers are now hitting Twitter.
"Facebook is no longer alone in its troubles. Twitter is also becoming a target of phishers. The last few days have seen a slew of Twitter phishing attacks, possibly orchestrated in a chess-like multi-move plan that resulted in three sets of victims and, very likely, some seedy profits."
To read the entire article, go Phishing on Twitter



I have a friend who had 659 updates on Twitter, in 60 days. My question to him was "Don't you have a life"?

Security on the Internet MUST be taken as a priority or else Identity Theft will be the norm.

Be Careful when you surf.

Some of Us Have Nothing To Do ......


Hi
I am all for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, however, sometimes PETA goes way too far with their fanatical ranting.

"PETA took a while to slam President Obama for fly murder, but finally got around to condemning Obama for his war-mongering on flies. They even had a gift for Obama so he can treat flies more humanely next time."

This is a FLY for heavens sake.
