For several days I really wanted to have mangosteens. So on the weekend I went to a store and bought about 3.5 kilos. Why so many, you might ask. Well, I simply wanted to have bigger chances to get the best. However, most of the time I couldn't be sure I would get good ones, let alone the best, as I could only see them from the outside. I spent some time to select ones which looked good with hope that I would get the good ones.
Guess what?
I chose a pretty one
But that one was rotten.
I chose another pretty one from the outside
It turned out to be good.
And surprisingly enough, this one looked not so pretty but was actually very good.
Once I peeled off their skin, I couldn't return them to the store. Whether I like it or not, I gotta accept what I got. I could only blame myself for not being a good "judge".
Hmm...
To me choosing a partner is somehow similar to that. The big difference is that you have to be a good person to get a good partner.
If you think your partner/wife/husband was a bad person, don't you dare claiming you're good!.
And to me my Giant is good man so I guess I am not that bad, eh?
PS
I was lucky to have many more good mangosteens than the bad ones. Although I still couldn't judge them from their looks, it's worth spending time selecting..
I have known a very good friend through online chat since 2006 or 2007. The distance wasn't a problem. He was a great and understanding friend. I could tell him my problems without being judged. These 10+ years, we had on and off friendship. We lost touch for several years until recently. I knew where to find him. He's here in CS and a famous blogger(not the most famous but one of the best) Though we have never met in reality but our friendship is still strong.
To this great friend, thank you for the friendship and being a good listener.

I'm not sure where Trump picked up attorney Alina Habba, but she's doing an excellent job of digging a hole in which to fall into. Remember, she's the one who didn't 'click the box' to request a jury trial that Trump is blaming on the court. She's been speaking out of turn and told several times by the judge to sit down.
She asked for a court delay on the E. Jean Carroll trial claiming she was exposed to COVID
and had a fever, however she wasn't wearing a mask during the hearing. The next day she was seen at the celebration of Trump's New Hampshire primary win.
Dylan Quattricci documented the greet on his Twitter account calling her Trump's rockstar attorney and a huge inspiration.
I'm thinking...
She lied to a judge, attended a political rally, showing political judgement, attempted to falsely delay a trial.
Those actions fall under the bar association guidelines.
She could be removed from the case and the bench.
I've said this before, if Trump fires his attorneys, he won't pay _and_ request a delay from the court so he can secure new representation.
Me thinks that rockstar attorney Habba Dabba Du stepped in some Dudu...

To my Giant and I new year means new fiscal year.. new budget plan implementation.. new schedule adjustment.. and all those mean busy.. busy.. busy!
You see, my Giant is a night bat and a late morning worm, while Kal is a morning bird and an evening koala. However, for two days we changed that a bit. Surprisingly enough he could become a morning bird and I was a night owl. Yes, several days ago we decided to have a two day honeymoon before our jobs take most of our time.
Honeymoon!
Hmm.. you know.. doing things together.. being silly crazy.. having baths, dressing up (when at home Kal wears mostly underwear, Tshirt and short only sometimes
), eating, watching movies, staring at each other, kissing, including .. etc etc.. virtually ofcourse.. video calling on Skype and WA.
I am a terrible striptease dancer.
I love my Giant very much and he loves me as much. I know to some that sounded ridiculous, but not to us. We enjoyed our romantic moments as in real life.
Thank you my HB for the unforgettable honeymoon.

Florida's Move Over Law aka Right-of-way traffic law, got tougher in 2024. Basically, it was designed for safety of police and first responders who have their emergency flashers on when stopped or parked on a highway shoulder.
On a multi-lane highway, you are required to 'move over' a lane giving safe clearance. For example, an officer opens his car door and steps out and he's right at the edge of the travel lane.
The law changed this year to include ANY vehicle with flashers on. This includes stranded vehicles. Maybe you've seen someone who is on the side of the road, crouched down changing a flat tire only a few feet from the roadway... they have no chance of safety. With the car jacked up and a truck flying by at 65mph there is enough wind force that could easily knock the stand off the car. The same thing for a tow truck who may be backing at a slight angle to hookup and be close to the edge of a travel lane.
Sometimes, it's not possible to move over with adjacent travel. People are too aggressive to allow someone access to their lane and not responsive to the law. In that case you're required to SLOW DOWN at least 20 mph below the posted limit.
Yeah, it's the law, but I rarely see people moving over.

He's the best ain't he!
By the way have you guys seen how Barron towers over both mum and dad?
He is the real Trump Tower!
Amazing.
This Nikki Haleys comet reminds me of Pocahontas now (E.Warren)
She ain't white?
Seriously you can't use the race card when someone with my eyesight
can't even tell she is of Indian descent.
Here is a black man (vid down below).
Can he be the VP pick please?

Hey! If you come across a blog or blogs from an unknown account, that was my old one. I found it and just reading my old blogs and forums. Sorry! Back to reality!
That Russia
bears no 'Ill Will or Hostility' toward the USA. These are all 'made up' accusations to increase tension between East and West. Thus most Americans are worried about the future while the Russians are laughing their AO.
Proof of this is purely in the fact that they don't endorse and condone all Biden's and his side-kick Harris' actions.
Just think clearly for a moment here. If any country wanted the USA to carry on its suicidal path of self destruction then they would endorse and compliment each ridiculous action that is made daily by a man that is way past his prime and should've been sitting under a tree dreaming dreams of his past conquests. He deserves THAT, at least. I think Americans themselves should re-evaluate the current situation and find out who is and who isn't their enemy.
Start Here....

From what I recall, Trump cast doubt that Barack Obama was an American citizen and then blamed the Clinton's for starting the movement. All sorts of conspiracies arose from this. At the time, John McCain was running against Obama and steered clear because McCain was born in Panama... at Coco Solo Naval Air Station in the Panama Canal Zone. Since the Panama Canal was under U.S. control, he was granted a U.S. citizenship at the age of eleven months.
Who else came under the scrutiny of birth right and US citizenship by Trump?
I believe it was Ted Cruz who had dual-citizenship with Canada. All it took was signing a form to denounce his Canadian citizenship when he ran for the US presidency.
Trump is a racist who dislikes immigrants. He's stated that in public and used phrases like poisoning the blood of our country, yet his previous wife Ivana was born in Czechoslovakia. She was the mother of their 3 children. Donald Jr, Ivanka, Eric.
His current wife Melania was born in Yugoslavia (now Slovenia) and the mother of Barron.
Do you see where this is leading?
Vivek Ramaswamy, the son of Indian parents was born in Ohio, was also in words of Trump and his questionable candidates. Vivek dropped out of the race.
Now we're up to Nikki Haley who was born in South Carolina to immigrant parents from India. You guessed it... brown skin and a candidate for the 'poisoning the blood of our country'
Some say she's got no chance if he pulls the birther race card against her.
Republicans have a choice... the brown skin lady or the guy teetering on prison.
