Thought i would reblog because nobody read it? Maybe needs a ping back?

Baseball Cards

I have been earnestly learning Android technology for the last 4 months. The 3.5 inch device in my hand is my calendar, alarm clock, TV and DVD Player (High Def of course) Library, Book Store, Internet, Global Positioning System, a complete cutting edge Office suite consisting of Microsoft Office, Google Docs, Apache Open Office, several dictionaries and a Thesaurus! Last but far from least is the communication plarform. Telephone, Snap Chat, e-mail (4 addresses) Bing,Google, Firefox and of course TOR/ORFOX for cloaking aka hiding myself while I surf CyberSpace. But I must confess. I’ve gone to far, I’ve gone overboard.

Color your WORLD-Eggplant

1024x768-eggplant-solid-color-background

Never knew hair could have so many colors icon_eggplant

Colored after one of my favorite Veggies at that!

When I was “growing up”, as they say, hair came in your basic colors. Blonde, Brunette, Red, Black or Brown with the occasional streaks here and there or the strange colors from the “DIY” Hair Stylist. But today you see hair of every color in the Rainbow or of the fruit trees or the vegetable garden etc. I knew that, “but I didn’t know that”, until my daughter started Cosmetology school which I thought was the study of the stars until she showed me some of her work on Mannequins and I was blown away not only by the vast array of color but the styles too. I will admit I would never in my wildest dreams attempt to be a hairstylist! I will also admit to feeling like and old “fuddy duddy” when I was, let say, overwhelmed at the wild DO’S of today.

When I go the the Barber, I mean, Hair Stylist I have to be selective because not all hair stylist today do what is called a “Flat Top.” I decided on such an archaic DO because I have a thick head of hair and it is a pain unless I have a low maintenance hair style like the Flat Top. Finding a good Flat Top barber has not been easy and I thank God for “Glue” because with the hair Goo of today anything can be molded and formed to get by till the next cut. I have had this wild idea of maybe coloring my Flat Top. I even thought bout one color on the sides with a good complimentary accent color on top but my daughter talked me out of it. Since she will not be caught dead with a 59 year old man with the color Banana around the edges and side accented with Eggplant on top I think I’ll just stick with the current coloring of God given white around the edges and brown on top.

Speaking of hair color can one get those darn eye brows that thicken with age and those mystery hairs that crop up on the ears colored? And my granddad!God rest his soul. I will never forget how thick his nose hairs got when he turned 90. Now those babies could really stand a good coloring!

Color your WORLD: Denim

Shower Curtain

Blanket of Denim pockets

Denim at Dusk

Denim or in my thoughts today, cotton Blue Jeans colored Denim and even called Denim Jeans, were at a time not long ago, a way of life. Cotton mills of the South thriving and supporting thousands of families weaving cotton products of which the Blue Jean a.k.a. Denim Jean was the main stay. Entire towns complete with the town Doctor and Denist right “down town” among the rows of mill houses all compliments of the Denim Jean. Keeping up with the “Jones” was simple in Mill Town USA because the Jones across the street and down the street worked in the same mill, made the same wage, owned the same home went to the same Doctor etc. I can vaguely remember my relatives in Mill Town. They were a happy lot! They did everything together. Their kids went to school together, played together, got sick and in trouble together. They seemed to be extremely loyal friends who really cared for each other. I don’t remember there being many conversations about the next Time Share for sale or the latest and greatest Luxury Sedan but I do remember talk about out Johnny’s grades or to beware of the stomach flu that Johnny brought home. People in Mill Town were all married and had kids with divorce being unheard of and on Sunday you would find them at the Baptist Church or the Methodist church across the street. Life seemed so easy, laid back and much simpler back then.

Today Mill Town USA has vanished. Vaporized by the wand of our government who prefers profit over people. Cotton products, the Denim Jean were all deemed cheaper to make over seas regardless of quality standards in production or the lives of people. What I find troubling is how the product is cheaper to make but more expensive for us to buy.

Things are no longer simple. The Jones are no longer the same. Divorce is more popular than marriage and nobody goes to church anymore.

But we all still wear Denim Jeans! I know I love mine.

Color Your World – Dandelion

I am CRAZY about this PIC! And it has a lot of the color Dandelion

Young Harris College

Perfect Dandelion shirt

And the “flower” uh/ “weed” too

Looks like “Yeller” to me. I guess I could never be a color design engineer for Crayola but I do like the color yellow even this one with the fancy name of Dandelion. I remember a time when my Grand Ma Dyer’s yard would be one huge field of nothing but Dandelions and how it would look like it was snowing when a big wind blew across the yard. Her neighbors were not very happy because those warm weather snow flakes would mean Dandelions in their yard. To them they were weeds but to me and my cousins they were flowers of love and memories. Memories of family reunions with several generations present. Memories of adults of practically every age and children from “fresh out of the oven” to teenagers. The ‘old dawgs” would gather around the grill and cook the T-Bones while the cousins played football and the nieces played cheer leader. Football is big where I grew up and there was always the Ga Bulldog, Ga Tech Engineer debate. There were many reunions were we had no ball so we would use a tin can and I will brag a little here, I can catch a can with the best of them.

That was then and I am sad to say the reunions I have such fond memories of do not seem to be popular in America anymore. I don’t know if it’s the moral decay I have been hearing about for the last decade or the disintegration of the family but I do know I don’t see or hear about big reunions on a regular basis as I once did. Maybe it’s just our busy culture with people spread all over the globe instead of all over the State or the South etc. Maybe reunions are virtual now? Maybe family ain’t family? Have we become so engrossed in ourselves we no longer have time for the aunts or uncles that meant so much to us in our youth? No time for them when they need us the most?

I was recently in the dumps because my favorite aunt who has called me in the past has not called in a long time when it occurred to me that I have not tried to call her. That’s how “we are” isn’t it? We bitch about something and then realize we are as guilty, if not more, than anyone. Speaking only for myself I find the things that bother the most about other people are my weakest points, my own character defects. When I get “Po’d” at someone it’s typically because I’m looking in a mirror. Today instead of bitching about not being called or hearing from so and so I immediately pick up the phone and dial when I feel that cloud coming on. That works too as long as they answer. PICK up that PHONE and make that call because not only will it keep that cloud away it just might make somebody’s day

Smart Phone Dumb Person

My first indication of trouble came one morning when I couldn’t find the way out of my driveway. Confused I screamed at the only lady in my life Ms. GPS. I couldn’t believe she apparently overslept leaving me to navigate alone. I’ll never forget our first date because like “all” women she thinks she is always right. On this particular Friday night I was out to prove her wrong and decided to go my way instead of the crazy twice as far way she said to go. We arrived 2 hours late because Ms. Smarty Pants knew there was a 3 car pile up on the quickest most direct route! And her voice. Always calm, she NEVER gets upset and never says “I told you so.” I managed to back out of my driveway, and although my girlfriend remained silent, I made my first appointment, or so I thought. I had a 9AM appointment and at 10:30 I decided to be bold and walk into my prospects office. She looks up from her desk and ask me what I was doing? I calmly replied “here at 10:30 for my 9 o’clock appointment” and she says I am a day early. Smugly I said “no way” and yanked my girl, now my alarm clock with a message reminder, out of my jacket and showed her the message. And SHE WAS RIGHT! The message which I loaded for Monday said “Tuesday 9AM”. My intention was to wow her and I did but not exactly as I had planned. I decided to send her a courtesy note during lunch snd I’m sitting at the table when Ms. GPS decides to join me. When GPS wakes up so do all her “friends” and for the next 10 minutes I’m vibrating and people start staring at my table as it Beeps BOOPS, RINGS,DINGS,CHIMES and JINGLES. Reminders ( some wrong) alerts, e-mail, notifications, messages and, and….! Wow! But I have learned a lot from the simple, like muting the sound and what alerts I need and don’t need to using my Android as a Bridge for TOR. But make no mistake I have let the Smart Device dummy me down. I can no longer add 2+2 because of my calculator. I spell dog, dawg because of my phones perdective spelling and SMELL CHECK! Don’t even get me smarted (I mean STARTED) on that.

I am techno freak. It’s hard not to be after working for IBM 29 years. I serviced the 1st Personal Computer with hard drives the size of an encyclopedia and the first Automated Teller Machine. I am in awe of this Android (aka Linux) in my hand and it’s capabilities. To my understanding the next 10 years will see an expotential growth in the power I can hold in my hand but what will that mean to my mind? Will I be forever doomed? Smart Phone Dumb Person?

Color your WORLD: Copper

Being a country boy growing up in the South, Georgia, to be exact my first thought was a Copper Head Snake! Not only would that not do justice to the color Copper but it’s winter time making snakes hard to find and the Copper Head is one of the world’s most poisonous snakes. So I grab a penny! Not real pleased with my frugal entry into today’s color challange I grabbed the shield with one of my favorite scripture from the New Testemant. A scripture from the book of Ephesians and one that has meant a great deal to me over the years because of evil in our world. I don’t think any rational human being on this planet would argue that evil exists but few will suggest ways to defeat it. Ephesians offer a good place to start suggesting we “put on the full Armor of God, so when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground.” I find it interesting that it says “you may” and I think that’s a good way of letting us know how powerful evil is and our struggle is not against flesh and blood. It is against the rulers of this dark world and the spiritual forces of evil in the spiritual realm.
What is this Full Metal? ” It is the “Belt of Truth” buckled around your waist, the Breastplate of Righteousness and your feet fitted with readiness that comes from the Gospel of peace. In addition to these add the shield of faith, helmet of Salvation and the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God.”

The Word of God aka The Holy Bible does it really make a difference? After all it’s only a book? The most popular, most translated, most read and sold book on this planet. Is it just a book? Consider: The Bible originated before the written word and in a language void of verbs. It was passed down word of mouth to scribble on mud,stone,clay,scrolls,Parchment, printing press, to the digital output of today. and certain individuals spent their adult lives in translation. People have been tortured and murdered for owning one and even today in certain parts of the Globe that threat still exists. Is it just a book? HOW COULD IT BE?
