Thursday Thoughts......

Thought I would try something new... a new day themed blog entry....it just popped in my head..we'll see how it goes...so welcome to the first, and hopefully not only, installment of Thursdays thoughts! so far, my thoughts have been occupied by studying for the Amateur extra license tesat, which I'll be taking in early December...I saw on the news this morning they supposedly killed khaddafi..finally....finally some justice for the flight 103 families, finally major changes coming to a Libya that sorely needs them...It seems all the cruel dictators in the world are falling like dominos..how long before North Korea falls? hmmm...those people are so freakin brainwashed it may never happen....wishful thinking...heh...and of course, Obama the dipshit has taken credit...what a freakin moron, yes, he made the dangerous decision to send troops to help the rebels, back up the rebels, but the rebels get the credit as far as I'm concerned, not Omoron......hes just trying to suck up to voters...he knows as well as i do he's not getting re-elected...if he somehow manages to pullit off..i'll find a way to leave this country for good! and speaking of morons, Michael Jackson's Doctor is still on trial...its funny how they said Michael swalloed propofol while the doc was out of the room...we all know he's guilty, he deserves more than a few years in prison and loss of his medical license......yes, Michael was weird, but he had a good heart, thats what matters...and the fact he wanted to help children...unfortunately, his love of children went a bit too far I think..but the pastis in the past......and Lindsey Lohan the moron! she needs to do some hard time...community service is not going to help her, especially when she can afford to keep bailing herself out..stupid broad! I've also given alot of thought about my new TV, the one i'm saving up for that I'll be getting in late November, Early december......Ive decided its going to be the last big "toy" that I buy for the foreseeable future......Ive managed to save a bit of money and am hoping to have a bit left over after the purchase....if all goes well i'll have saved around $1,000.00 to leave about 4 or 5 hundred after purchase..about the only things i would like to purchase in the future is a better ham radio, the new nintendo when it comes out, replacement for whatever devices decide to die, maybe a bluray or 2 once in awhile, maybe a video game or 2 once in awhile......I dont need a new computer or anything...so I hope the future will be kind to me...we'll see when 2013 starts..and of course, the end of the world is not gonna happen..at least in my lifetime..people are starting to get paranoid, and it annoys me to no end......until next time...

Monday...cheer...

It is indeed Monday, once agan.  Not too bad a start to Monday...buts its still early on... had kind of a full weekend..disint have to work, but I had our Radio Clubs annual monthly meeting...9 am Saturday, then after that, I went to lucnh with a couple club members, then we went up to another club members house way up on a hill at the end of,and i use the term very very loosely, a dirt road, and I got to see his outdoor octagonal wet bar, he calls daglaritaville.....then home do do chores and awaitthe arrival of mom and dad from a funeral in tucson...sunday, I finished laundry, and worked on my rewiring project all day, i even ran a speaker wire under the carpet across the doorframe...which unfortunately created a large lump under the carpet in the hallway due to the under carpet padding getting scrunched up and folded oer on itself because of my poking sand prodding with my fish tape...i had to pull up the edge of the carpet to fix the problem.....i still have a wys to go though, ive got most of the loose wires piled behind the tv stand and i still have to hookup all the speakers, plug in the receiver, the cd player, and the compnent video and audio switch boxes...the cd player isnt yet hooked to the receiver, and when i'm done with that, ive got to distribute the wii and gamecube and run those cables, and get the record player setup where the wii and gamecube are now.....and get that hooked to the receiver as well...then after that, i'll rerun the phone line to the directv box and figure out where to mount my phone...sheesh!!! so much to do, so little time! and it better be done by halloween so i can have my yearly horror movie marthon and pile of candybars party!  and ive already bought my candy bars....got them on october 1st......butterfingers, reeses peanut butter cups and mounds..my usual....and i'll get a couple bottle of coke classic the day before halloween......I'm still on schedule, so far, to get my new tv around the end of nevember or early december......cant wait for that, and i'll be getting the new zelda around that time as well!!! alot going on this early holiday season......oh, i also washed my dog yesterday, and ran a bunch of errands...very full sunday.....hopefully quieter next weekend......and hopefully quiet week!......until next time....

Finally,after all this time...sort of...

I'm a little sore today...i finally managed to remove the component case and tv stand from my room, and replace them with a cd bookshelf, and a brand new, assembled myself, entertainment center that houses all my componentsand then some, including my tv...soon to be a bigger new tv...all in one space..mor accurately, 2 entertainment centers stacked on top of each other......and unfortunately, the aforementioned entertainment centers and rahter shallow, so my brnad new, fleshly unboxed receiver sticks out a bit...its ok though, i found a small boarsd that i can stick underneath it that acts as sort of a shelf extender to put under the front edge of the receiver..so no worries..i also had to come up with a door stop of some sort to keep the bedroom door from knocking my pipe rack off its stand everytime the door is opened...i found a small piece of 2 x 4 for that, and painted both boards black so they dont stick out so much...i had to spread out the speakerstands quite a bit to fit the new ent. centers, but they fit nicely...and the subwqoofer even had to move a bit...but now at least i have un-obstructed access to the closet, which will come in handy shortly when i dig out my bins of cd's and nintendo cartridges and cd games etc so they can be put on the cd bookshelf for easier storage and access, and that will in turn, free upmuch needed spacein the closet......but first things first..i have a huge pile of wires on the floor infront of the ent. center that needs to be organized and installed..i've decided to go purely hdmi cables for sound and video, that alleviates all the patch cables i had hooked to the back of the old receiver..freeing up space for all the wires form my wii, gamecube, ps2, and soon, ps3! and when i get my new bigger tv..42" vizio...hopefully the end of november or early december, all my video games should still fit right behind the tv..the wii is wireless controller so no worries about that..the other ones need to be positioned so i can lay down on the bed and play......also i'll be receiving the new zelda, skyward sword in the end of november early december..so my rennovation and acquisition will be complete!!! thats assuming i dont lose my job in the mean time.....my employer has the business for sale and ive decided that if he does sell, i wont be staying on, no matter what is offered.....after over 10 years of dealing with the same merchandise i'm sick and tired of it, and want to move on...maybe start my own business....i dont know yet..we'll see....and as for december 21, 2012... nothings going to happen, it will be a normal, 3 days to xmas type day....and on the 22nd....i'll be telling everyone "I TOLD YA SO!!!!!!" hehe....thats my opinion and i'm sticking to it!!!!!!!!!!!  until next time......

I'm planning, hopefully next week, or i should say, this coming week, to start assembling my cd booksshelf and entertainment center......ive ordered my extra cd magazines, and an extra hdmi cable, which will be arriving tomorrow via UPS, and ive also ordered a new receiver, which will arrive  thursday, also via UPS... so ive got an interesting week ahead... until next time...
