hopefully this storm has been overrated, really want to get the last class in for the semester. looking forward to one last V.O.R session.
i must say it has been a blast for this old dog. i was very against going back to school for many reasons. i am glad that my return consisted of this class, instructor and classmates, as it has remove some of my cynical attitude towards school. i now look forward to future classes and challenges. just hope that they will be as rewarding as this class was.
looking forward to tomorrows last session. let's hope Horace shines some light on us. V.O.R wants one last crack at a few things, but i told him he is just invited for the snacks, he wont speak with his mouth full.

ahhhhh, there is nothing better than cold leftover italian catering food from an office party to soothe the savage supervisor. that extra solid penne in vodka sauce topped off with the last piece of sausage from the sausage and peppers really make for a gourmet meal.
so as you can see i am at work on one of those nights again. i will spare you the details, but just vent about people dropping the ball. this has inspired me to create a new game, "i dropped the ball". the rules are if you drop the ball at work, you get dropped yourself. the twist is you make the choice on how you get dropped, from the roof, from the ceiling, or from the job. i am trying to secure a deal with spike tv to broadcast the pilot. no sorry, you cant sign up , as i have more than enough contestants here at work.
right now, the only thing that is keeping me going is that i know i do not have to get up at 06:00 for a math class. this take a weight off my back and allows me to prepare my ripping emails. if only i could get college credits for the emails, then i would be able to get a associates in 2 weeks!

yet another monday folks. well for me it is, you all get to enjoy it as thursday.
didn't get an entry in yesterday. it was a special day as my wife and i both had off. we were assistants in my daughter pre-k class, which was lots of fun. it is amazing how kids display so many adult characteristics at times, but then the switch kicks in and they all become four year olds again. we had our own table during activity time where we played a game we brought from home. i got to read the story at the end of class, i had a blast with that one.
we continued family day with picking up of the christmas tree, or as V.O.R. likes to call it, Odin's Tree. I have never had it so easy before, the Knights of Columbus(didn't know he had any or that he was a king)hall across the street from our house was selling trees and such this year. the guy asked where my car was so he could tie down the tree onto the roof. he got a kick when i put the tree over my shoulder and said, "it's OK , i gonna walk home." my wife told him how far that was.
the rest of the day we enjoyed ourselves and had pizza with some friends, with whom we were finally able to lock down on a date.
soooo. this morning i set up the tree in the stand and fill that sucka with some H2O. Hopefully by Sunday the tree will be all decked out. just hope that fat guy in the red suit doesn't knock it over when he puts the gifts underneath.

well, still at work folks. waiting on our colleagues overseas to finish up their work and send us messages so that we can then finish our work. so much for getting out early on my friday. could have really used some wings and pints at Croaxley's tonight.
i have shared the zeitgeist with some friends at work. you can watch the entire movie on youtube. it still fascinates me, the fact there are people out there that had issue with some of the 9/11 WTC collapse, enough so that they investigated as much as they did. i mean, think about it, big planes full of fuel hit buildings, and after a while they collapse. i was satisfied with the information, but the people in the movie were not, and it bothered them enough to use their expertise in their own fields to research deeper.
for this i am thankful. though i am afraid of what we may find out, for if it was truly done in the manner in which they describe, how will we react and how will we recover. if it is true, then maybe the 2012 theory isn't such a bad thing after all.

i really enjoyed the movie this morning. i really had to hold back V.O. R. because he wanted to so badly take it all to the next and other level. if i would have let him run with it, we would still be there discussing all the topics.
the first part about the similarities of the messianic dogmas throughout the ages was well done. i especially enjoyed the part that paralleled them all with the movement of the earth and the stars. it all made sense, but then again , if you lay it out correctly, 13 x 7 = 28(from Abbott & Costello)
after viewing and considering all parts of the movie, when you sit down and think about it all, you only have the following choices:
1.) embrace it all and herald it as the truth
2.) accept it and feel your doomed
3.) figure it out and be slick enough to know how to work it to your advantage
4.) rebel for the sake of change, and try not to get caught
the bottom line to all of this is one thing; at the end of the day, you got to be able to look at yourself in the mirror and know that you did the best you could. it sounds easy, but we all know it isn't. you can feed a line to others, but you can't B.S. yourself when you are one on one in the mirror. if you can successfully accomplish this, then it doesn't matter what befalls you that day, as you will be right with the universe. that is something that no religious leader, politician, international banker, or terrorist can take from you.

well i got past one hurdle today, my math test. did not score as high as i would have liked to but it was acceptable. even though it was just the NCC placement test , algebra portion, it was very critical for me to pass. if i didn't, i wd have to take a 12 hour refresher or MAT002 again, both were not options! so now it is onto Math 109, Algebra and Trig, i figure if i got the dragon by the tale might as well and go fro the throat and conquer the beast known as Algebra.
after this success, the rest of the day was uneventful, some few human errors by agents at work, but nothing that couldn't be fixed with some stern discussion.
looking forward to tomorrow's class. I am anxious about the final paper yet still confident that all will work out as it should. i will miss this sunday morning class, it helped me keep my sanity and get me back into going to school.

i feel a bit guilty for the early entry yesterday, bu not enough to keep from doing it again today!!! seeing that there aren't too many left for the class it is not alot to ask of myself, though i do believe i will continue for the New Year, making it a real journal and less of assignment.
we should all be keeping some type of a journal, be it paper or blog, as a way of recording history, that of our own personal lives and our individual reflection of the times we live in. too many times in days past have the conquerors recorded history to their liking, which has us losing out on the truth about so much of our past.
the only down fall of the advancement of historical recording of our present time is that we get data overload, too much, too soon, and all too fast. it numbs us of the feelings we should be having regarding the events we are witnessing. we fall into the trap that Don Henley sings about in his song "Dirty Laundry" where it doesn't matter what we see on the news, just that we see it, and see it all.
so we not only have an obligation to record our own little "histories", but to do so in a way that will keep it real so that 100 years down the line, it doesn't just become a part of someones data overload.

i figured i would play it safe and get in 07DEC's blog while i am still at the computer. lord knows if i would get to it during the day never mind at work, now that we have so much mail to move on the flights.
i have been finding it fascinating how now, through our own intelligence reports, we find that Iran is not on the verge of killing us with nuclear missiles. i wonder how "W" feels about this. was it something he and the "Tin Man" planned this way, sort of like being nice guys to calm things down and get the Annapolis meetings approved by the Iranians? or is it really something he was not aware of prior to it's release and now he has to do a bit of back pedaling? either way their approach is not productive.
i have former colleagues from a previous airline who are are iranian. i meet them at a training course in germany, where we spent four weeks together, learning, studying, dining, hiking, shopping, and being human beings together. one colleague was working full time and caring for his ailing father who was suffering from cancer. the other was recently engaged and missing his fiance' very much during the four weeks. we came to understand that we were all in the same boat, working to make ends meet while trying to set up our lives for the future of our families.
what gets me is that during this four week period in 2003, iran had a moderate leader, khatami, and peaceful overtures were being made by both the US and Iran. so what i want to know is what happened? yes the got a hardliner into their administration, just like we did. but does that mean we have to go through this crap of my guns are bigger than yours?
here is the solution. "W" needs to publicly state he wants a real face to face with Ahmadinajaket. two guys sitting down getting to business. he makes it very clear that we both need to start over and get past all the b.s. and find solutions together to the problems in the region. at the same time he lets Amadinajaket know that he can do what he wants in his sovereign state with his nuclear facilities, BUT with the understanding that what he will have as weapons in 5 years time, we have 100,000 times more. then sit back, enjoy some Texas BBQ with some Persian sweets and faludeh, and let the boys get their s*&t together.
if not, we are all going to pay as we have been, and i really don't want to have to always look over my shoulder at home or abroad. as i am sure the iranians dont want to watch the skies for incoming.
NUFF SAID !

the old timer has finally arrived into the modern age. i am now wireless....BIIIIIIIGGGGG Deal.
the benefits is now i can watch my 4 yr old do her kamikaze tumbling as opposed to just getting the audio. now i can say, "hey ! don't even think about it!" as opposed to "Hey! what are you doing ?!"
it is also warmer and more ergonomic at the dinning room table, though the desk i built is an awesome piece of furniture!
this morning was st.nicholas day, and my daughter rushed to see if her boots were filled with goodies or coal. to her joy she found a chocolate santa, wish she was able to start this evening.
she also opened another day on her advent calendar. morning chocolate is the best!
after i dropped her off in school, i activated our new cell phones with verizon. now we are totally connected through verizon, fios and wireless. we even get a discount on the bill because of this. i am still working on that free 19" hdtv. pinky dinky doo will be so much more intense now !
i took today off from work, as i still had time carried from 2006, and i wanted to keep on working on my research paper. i may have gotten a bit too involved and collected more reference data than i planned. damn brainstorming, just cant get a calm tropical day in the membrane.
slowly but surely i feel the christmas, or yule tide, sensation getting into me. not that i am any longer big on the religious aspect of it, as i so delicately stated in class, but more into the feel of the weather and family, especially at night. the clear crisp air, the light touch of snow outside highlights the warmth of the home scented with the pine and cinnamon. i cant wait till we make our first batch of Gleuwein, a warm german mulled spice wine consisting of red wine, austrian rum, cloves, cinnamon, and sugar. we also get a nice bottle of homemade egg nog from a family friend, great taste, high octane. al the right things to warm you up and get that cheer into you!
well that's it for me tonight. you all stay warm and "keeeeep smiling". oops, that one belongs to easter time, then "unga bunga binga bunga,bunga binga unga bunga!"

This will serve as the blog for 03-05DEC07
well, been out of action on the blog for the past two days due to lack of sleep.
03DEC07 MON - 04DEC07 TUE
i was up at 06:00 DEC 3 until 04:30 DEC 4, 22 1/2 hours straight, 12 of which were at work. So, needless to say that when i had to get up DEC 4 at 07:30, i was in limbo, physically and mentally.
i managed to get up, showered and dressed by 08:00 so i could take my 4 yr old to school, which is, thankfully, only across the street. but with the way i felt it could have been a mile that i had to walk. i am glad that she loves pre-k, she just gave me a peck on the cheek and off she went.
once i got back home, i set the alarms, yes all of them, for 10:30, so i could at least get 2 hours of sleep before i had to pick her up from pre-k. the 2 hours never went by so fast, it felt like i had just closed my eyes. when i got to the school the kids came out right away, normally we have to wait. this was good as my daughter had a 11:30 doctors appointment for an annual check up. the ever popular question was raised " papa, am i getting a shot ? ", to which i replied with the ever cautious, " i'm not sure, but don't worry, it will be OK no matter what".
we waited until 12:30 for our 11:30 appointment, always wondered why they even bother giving you a set time when they know it never works that way. during the wait i must have had about 10 two minute power naps, always catching myself just before i really went off to ZZZ land.
as usual, my daughter hides from the doctor. too bad because my wife and i really like him, but my daughter is shy around men and probably only associates him with shots. the women doctors she has seen have been for sick visit and there are no shots involved with those times.
while the shot is being prepared, the doctor and i play our "spelling" game, where we both agreed it would only last till first grade and then we cant play it anymore. the shot as usual brings the tears before, during, and after, which always take thirty minutes to subside, even with the lollipop. after we get an excellent bill of health and after paying the bill, we are out and into the cold.
as a soothing gesture, i suggest pizza at Cirros, which is across the street from the doctors office. this bring the smile i am looking for, so off we go ! i have never seen my kid eat a whole slice and half a sicilian slice so quietly and quickly before, the trauma must have kick started the hunger!
after pizza we go back home for an hour before it is off to pick up my 14 yr old for the Tues Glenwood Landing to Floral Park to Garden City to Floral Park to Glenwood Landing shuffle. my 4yr old always passes out in the car during afternoon drives, so i have a little quiet time. we get to my 14yr olds high school early, so i too get to pass out for 15 minutes, i think i am now up to 5 hrs and 45 minutes of sleep for being up for 27 hours, not bad.
my 14 yr old arrives knocking on the window. she gets in and tells me of all the school work and classroom drama. i try to be cool, fortunately my tiredness keeps me from preaching to much and limits my replies to " i hear ya". we practice some German together for her upcoming test in a few hours, she has nothing to worry about !! before we get home, we hit the store for a pre-cooked chicken, i made sweet potatoes and broccoli for the bird. we all sit down to eat, and then its off again, to Garden City.
when we get back home, my wife comes home shortly, i leave soon thereafter to p/u my 14yr old, but mainly to get to the parking lot for some extra ZZZZ time. once my daughter comes out, we hit best buy for a wireless USB for this laptop. actually really nice people in best buy. then off to Glenwood Landing, a quick turn around and back home to pass out.
05DEC07 WED
today was more mellow. i caught on some sleep and had a great start in the morning. had a quick nap before i picked up my daughter and we had a fun lunch at home together. i got to some laundry and lots of reviewing for my math test this saturday, hope i don't blow it.
in the after noon took my daughter to her dance class while getting all excited by the snow. we got there just before the crowd. once she was in the studio i was heading back to the house. wrapped up some studying, got dinner ready and off i went to p/u the tiny dancer. we hustled to the bakery to get some bread for the sauce, and some sauce at the liquor store for papa ! Mama had a business dinner so she couldn't join us, so we got to more bread than usual !
we watch 2 classic christmas movies, the first christmas and santa claus is coming to town, both just as i remembered them when i was 4 yrs old. after the movies offto brush our teeth and into bed. during the second story, we were surprised when my wife snuck in on us. that also ended my daughter's winding down, as she was so excited to see mama.
i left the two of them to fall asleep together, and i wrapped up some more math. after that, i am now here playing catch up on the blogs and hope to install the wireless USB set up.
keep yr fingers crossed for me !

we watch 2 classic christmas movies, the first christmas and santa claus is coming to town, both just as i remembered them when i was 4 yrs old. after the movies offto brush our teeth and into bed. during the second story, we were surprised when my wife snuck in on us. that also ended my daughter's winding down, as she was so excited to see mama.
i left the two of them to fall asleep together, and i wrapped up some more math. after that, i am now here playing catch up on the blogs and hope to install the wireless USB set up.
keep yr fingers crossed for me !
