Baby Gurl part Duex

Well these weekly writings started as columns and ended up being blogs. So I'm gonna go ahead and make a quick post based on why I have nothing to write about, which is what most bloggers do anyway.

Four years ago marked the birth of Baby Gurl to the Senitram residence, now four days before Baby Gurls birthday we have Baby Gurl II!

I stayed home for a week to help with the recovery effort. We took turns staying up with the kid for the first few days since she doesn't really seem to know the difference between day and night. She was up all night those first few days but now she pretty much sleeps at night with the waking and the feeding and the changing of the diapers and things such as that.

It is for the reason of staying up all night that I just didn't have the energy to update TheWeirdcrap.com last week; although, our faithful writers continues to update their blogs. We're lucky that I was able to take a week off work to help the ol' lady adjust and she's a teacher so she gets all summer off, which is double lucky.

Now back to that immigration thing. I feel obligated to give insight since I happen to be a Hispanicano. Living in Nebraska, folks still look at me like, "What are you doing here?" Like I'm some sort of immigrant; however, my family has lived in Texas since it was part of Mexico, my dad was in Vietnam and his dad was in WWII. But still I don't belong - weird.

Social security numbers for illegals...not a good idea. My suggestion a few weeks ago was to provide ID's to allow folks here to work legally. But make 'em pay for the ID's like a drivers license, just a few bucks a head goes a long way when your counting millions. Why spend money when you can make a few bucks?

Fine the companies who hire illegal workers. Why spend billions of dollars shipping folks out of the country, when you can make billions in fines to big corporations. If it becomes un-profitable to hire illegals, they'll stop. Pay as you go...I guess it's a concept that Republicans just hate.

It's 11:30 at night and I get up at 6:00 am tomorrow so, so long for now!

BILLY JACK

Back to that immigration thing. Some guy in San Bernandino has the solution!

Make it illegal for illegals to have a place to live or vehicle. As a result illegal immigrants will put their heads down in shame and go home.

That’s fine in the world where tax cuts for the rich makes the economy boom. But in the world I live in, if the immigrant's employer can still employ him safely and cheaply, the guy will still have a job. As a result the homeless, but working chap will go to a homeless shelter. Shelters will fill up and we'll end up with new taxes to support them. The whole plan will end up costing money we don't have. Sounds very Republican-ish.

I still say the answer is to fine the corporations that choose to save money by hiring illegals instead of Americans. They're the real criminals.

Meanwhile, looks like the current administration in the White House got caught with their pants down with the phone records they wanted to review. A lot of folks don't know but they downloaded billions of phone records to look for calling pattern trends. It was a shoot in the dark and they didn't know what they were looking for, but after years of examining patterns and finding nothing, something was found.

About eleven days ago unexpected pikes occured in national calling patterns.

One of ways calls were examined was to look at call destinations and their geographic locations. Unusual peaks by destinations were found at various times of the day, once a day, for the last eleven days.

The CIA has become convinced that since all conventional means of world wide communication is comprimised, terrorists infiltrated a communications company and is creating and using these peaks as a sort of code. But no luck has been reached in cracking the code. Frustrated, the CIA contracted with a Japanese programing company the study the data. The facility is located on a small isolated Island off the coast of Japan which is privately guarded.

Neither of us ever broke the code, however, Isreal has successfully infiltrated the CIA and got some pieces of the puzzle and became convinced they had the answer when they came up with the Arabic equivalant of C, E, O, N.

Certain the word was O-C-E-A-N, they needed the rest of the code to find out the exact location of the next "Ocean Attack," which they were convinced would occur in the middle east. But the rest of the code was unobtainable.

Isreal's plan was perfect, if the US retaliated to an attack to the island, we would reveal that we gave sensitive material to a foreign country, so the private guards on the island were on their own in the event of an attack. All the information needed was right there for the asking.

The code wasn't so complicated once you knew the answer. The time of day of the artificial peak represented a letter of the Arabic alphabet. For example, a peak between 12:00 am and 12:59 am represented the first letter of a Arabic alphabet. Between 1:00 and 1:59 represented the second charater and so forth.

In a surprise attact which came from ships desguised as commercial vessels, Isreal's special forces stormed the outpost and slaughtered every person on the island and confiscated the data, bringing it back to the homeland. Realizing, there were mere hours before retaliation would come from Japan, the United Nations, the United States, or all three, the data was downloaded into a series of computers nicknamed "the sequencer" to obtain the location of the ocean attack.

They ran the sequencer and read the message...

"P-E-A-C-E-O-N-E-A-R-T-H" was all it said.

Go ahead and hate a neighbor, go ahead and cheat a friend.

Do it in the name of heaven, you can justify it in the end.

There won’t be any trumpets blowin’, come the judgement day.

On the bloody morning after…

one tin soldier rides away.
