You can't win if you don't play... and last week the jackpot rolled up to $680 million.
Reports last night claimed the jackpot exceeded $1.6 BILLION making it the largest jackpot in the US lottery history!
Sure, I put $5 in with 30 coworkers in a chance to retire with more money than I could imagine. The girl who made the transactions for us mandated that if we hit the jackpot ALL of us have to show up Monday to decide which tour bus we will hire to go claim the prize money.

No one called or texted.
No jackpot winner either...
Maybe next week.

Not really scammers, per se, but usually late 20 ish gum snapping heavily maquiaged sorts, often with child at home, dad long out of the picture, working for peanuts, in the dreaded retail sector. Ladies Madona. Photos focused on boobies, and if little is there, there are all sorts of tricks to make them look massive, such as pulling both upper arms to the sternum, while lifting with the lowers. In time, we CS older coot veterans learn how to vet these ladies away. But I take my time doing so, as there's usually a lot of fun, and less often something to learn, in doing so. Poor choices in life. We all have some.

If CS were a one armed bandit, I wonder how much I would win for four Vierkaesehochs in a row. I'd be RICH!

Don't get excited. It's not much of a blog, and I'm not in jail.


I had been spending lots of time at a coffee shop in Hollywood and was inspired to draw...something. This is what happened.


One of the coffee shop employees framed something I drew months ago (Not very well but it's the thought that counts). I suspect it was the pint-sized, kick-boxing manager (if she's got black eyes, don't ask).

It's now on the counter for people to look at and scratch their heads while waiting to place their order.

If it doesn't make any sense to you either, join the club.


PS: Sorry if I interrupted the steady flow of cut and pasted misinformation and political propaganda.

......or is it? Further awesome aspects of CS are the copious warnings against scammers. Such low lives on these sites---who would have thunk it? Well all such warnings are helpful. But many of us have evolved personal strategies to vet out these pathetic miscreants. Some such human trash are identifiable, with few false positives, from almost their first few words. Sort of fun, actually.

The other day, I was browsing Steam, and I came across a game, that sounded extremely interesting. It was called Government Simulator, and the description read the following:

"Government Simulator is a is a simple economic and political simulation game based on real-world data. Take control of a whole country, like the USA, Germany, France, Russia, or Austria. Change laws, taxes and budgets based on real world statistics and data, and see what happens."

There are no missions, and the game is purely text based. But never the less, I bought the game and tried to see if I could fix America.

The first few things I did were:

Implemented strict gun control. Like VERY strict! Up to a point where it was a crime to own one, unless you possessed a hunting license
Invested heavily in education
Implemented Free Abortion
Did some tweaks to certain laws
Ramped up the tax bracket for the wealthiest Americans
Gave tax breaks to low-income families

And what did all that result in?

Debt completely wiped out, and I created a 13.9 billion dollar surplus.
Unemployment rate was at 4%

Approval rating: 100%!

Keep in mind, that it's only a video game, and thus there is no way to tell if that would happen if the US did the same as I did in the game. But still, it makes you think.

Next time, I will try to tackle Russia!

...all sorts of services. Typically run by dikey types, who are quite congenial, unless of course, they are somehow forced into interacting with a manly man. Then the angry style kicks in, ---forget the humor, and any trace of good will. Rush's quip fits. These jobs and affiliated organizations were created to give unattractive women places to feel they belong. Anyway, we're told of a fellow who thought he'd have just a little fun at their expense. He presented to one such place, claiming trans gender status. Now he is a she, all 6 feet and 270 pounds of him. But he kept his hirsute natural body, including ZZ Top style beard, and of course, these folks are so PC, that they immediately bought it all. They also indulged him in his claim that he was pseudopregnant, and wanted help going through a mock abortion, now at gestational age of 32 weeks. Fake Clinical Fetus Murder---VERY fake, no? He also said he needed a safe house, as his male domestic partner beat him up for the last time. He reportedly kept them going for quite a while. He left abruptly in a huff, when they said that all else might fly, but that finding an appropriate safe house might present challenges. This story shows how absurd LGBT culture can be, taken to extremes.

The forecast this evening called for a possible tornado.
We don't get many tornadoes in New Jersey.
But, about 3 times per year we get warnings of potential ones.
To the defense of the news, we actually do get a few small ones.

One time one formed right in front of me.
It got started on a hot summer day, No clouds at all.
An SUV stopped at a 4-way stop sign and when it drove away, a very small tornado started,
During the next 5 minutes, it got bigger, and bigger & bigger
and was shaking large trees. Luckily it ran into a tall brick college dormitory,
or it probably would have kept growing.

About 20 years ago, a tornado went down a main street one block from where I was living at the time.
I didn't know it at the time. The next day I learned about it, as I witnessed the damage it
did to a strip mall a block from my house. It ripped the roof off of one building and some
air conditioners out of the walls of other buildings.

This summer New Jersey got some water spouts off the coast in the Atlantic Ocean and
also a tornado that fell some trees.

Getting back to tonight, I decided to walk to a store to buy some chicken. The store is perhaps a mile away.
When I got outside, it was strange. It was totally overcast, complete cloud cover.
It wasn't raining, but it was quite threatening. I debated driving or not, and chose to walk anyway.
As I began to walk, I noticed that every 3 seconds or so, lightning happened.
There was lots of lightning, but it wasn't the typical cloud to ground lightning.
It was all above the lower cloud level.
So, the clouds would light up all over the sky every 3 seconds or so, and thunder was mostly
not present.

On my walk back, the cloud lightning still continued every 3 seconds, and the last 600 yards, or so, it
started to drizzle a little bit. When I got 2 steps from my front porch, the clouds let loose.
They were pouring out buckets of water. Luckily, I had a wind breaker on, and my house key out of my pocket already. So, since I was in the rain less than 2 seconds, I didn't get drenched.

I lucked out....this time.
