Mystery Of The Moving Magazine' Cut Outs.

One day Steve decided to visit a weird haunted castle.Inside the cold wet castle he saw Stanley. Stanley told Steve that he can make magazine cut outs to move on their own. "That's silly !"  said Steve. Stanley told Steve "I can prove it !"

First thing Stanley had done was to get a blank piece of paper. On this paper he drew a circle and inside the circle he drew a star and inside the star he put in a dot.

Next thing Stanley had done was to cut out a picture out of a magazine and place it on a wall. To Steve's surprise the magazine's picture started to climb up on the wall, then it turn and walked on the ceiling and then walked down the wall on the other side of the room.

"Here, Steve" Stanley said "I will show you again". Again Stanley took a blank piece of paper, drew a circle and drew a star inside the circle and dotted inside the star.

And again Stanley cut an image out of a magazine and placed it against the wall and again the image started to walk on the wall,then on the ceiling and then walked down the wall on the other side of the room.At this point Steve was spooked and decided he saw enough and ran from the haunted castle .

 Stanley never told Steve that he had super glued each magazine page to a large cockroach directly under each of the images he was planning to cut out.  :)

Of course when people do not know what is going on, they definitely would have been spooked out..LOL

Now, Who Is Stupid Now ?

Some years ago there was a guy always saying "Hello stupid !"  every time he sees me riding a man's bicycle. I know words can hurt but it depends on the person saying them. In this case Na!. I could have said" Calling other people stupid doesn't make you any smarter !" but he was an idiot so I just ignored it.

One day I was visiting a group of my real friends in my neighborhood. This downgrading guy showed up and said to me
"Hello stupid" again. 

My friends Jim and Leonard spoke out "He's not stupid. he knows how to play chess, knows how to operate and fix computers, he knows plumbing and knows how to put in wires and outlets in a house and knows how to do his own taxes and even knows math. He even help us  and our wives/girlfriends with our income taxes and did not charge any thing for his time."  but if he needed to go to the store, doctor or anything else we are glad to take him !"


Of course on the taxes like the forms like 1040 or circuit breaker forms all one has to do is follow the instructions,and having a calculator, and knowing math like percentages does help and even more help when a people  have only one source of income.Yes "Sandy and Leonard you guys have a refund coming" :) and the refunds I said they we're going to get, they got.

Now I do have a few friends that went to college and it does not bother me if they're probably smarter than me but if I have a problem I can go to their smart brains for help.especially if there are more than one.

One problem I had is how to install a Murphy bed  inside of my house but the problem  it wasn't possible. I was going to my college friends for help, but I figured this on my own, get a roll away bed they make those in different sizes as well and it would fit inside of my closet.

That guy did not stop saying "Hello stupid!" again riding my men's bicycle but this time the landlord heard him and said "I want to talk to you !" before I knew it he and his family had to pack their things and had to moved out.My rent payments are outstanding but not this bully's.Now who is stupid now ?!


When a person points a finger at somebody there are three more fingers pointing back at her or him.

Enegry Effcient Furnances Suck !

In 2009 I had a free efficient furnace installed via
weatherization via a state program. Yes, it works fine if the temperature outside stays above 30 degrees Fahrenheit but  when it is lower than that the furnace does nothing but blow cold air. I realize now on furnaces anyway when it says enegry efficient it is just a gimmick.

I don't mind the self-lit auto pilot but when I looked at the burner itself it look like someone just turn on
all burners of a gas stove top. The flames in the burner are not very high. On my old furnace the flames were about 3 feet tall and not 6 inches tall.Also on my old furnace  when I set the temperature to 76 degrees Fahrenheit it stayed at 76. But on my energy efficient furnance now the temperature says 61 even tough I have the thermostat set at 76.

Fortunately I had the foresight to buy a ceramic towering space heater. The ceramic types are more safer than the other kinds but still keep it 2 feet away from everything and plug it in an outlet that has nothing else plugged into it. Make sure the plug fits snug  inside the outlet and not loose this can cause a fire and do not use extension cords.

I am going to buy another ceramic tower heater one for my bedroom and  use another for my living room, but I am not going to run them both at the same time just the one in the room I'm in.I am doing it that way to avoid carrying one unit room to room.

If you have a space heater and see glowing wires inside you're better off not using it and switch to the ceramic type.



What does 90% energy efficient mean: It means 90 cents of every dollar is use to heat your home and ten cents  of every dollar is just thrown out the window.

My Golden Stars

We all done something we are not proud of: But what did we do for others in our lives ?  Below are list of people I have helped and did not charged them one red cent.

                               ***Barbara***
Barbara was one of my coworkers but had to sit in a wheelchair because of her paralyzed legs. One day while riding a bus I have helped Barbara from the bus seat carrying her to her wheelchair outside of the bus. She was slight heavy-set but I was strong enough to get the job done. I kinda knew she liked me because at work I have always made her laugh.

                                  ***Beverly***
My former co-worker Beverly had worked at a grocery as a cashier. I bought a few things there and went to Beverly's aisle.After paying, Beverly told me she was running out of pennies. When I went home and after putting away my groceries  away I gather three dollars worth of pennies and went back to the grocery store and told her it was $3 worth of pennies in the paper bag. Beverly took my word for it and gave me $3 and fortunately she had enough  room in her cash register and pour them in.

                                       ***Gary*** 
I settled an argument here. Gary wanted to switch his bedroom tv for his mom's living room tv because it was capable of getting more of cable stations. I have ask Gary "Does your TV have a TV/CABLE switch ?  He replied "Yes" and I have shown him that all he had to do is flip the switch to cable and scan for channels. Once that was done he and his mom were both happy.Gary was watching the basic cable channels only for two years until I have changed it . ---lol

                               ***Gloria***
When I moved my new place I had a neighbor whose name is Gloria when I went to visit she had about 10 fans going in an extremely hot day and she had kids and a husband. I told her since my new place has central air I have no use for my window air conditioner and asked her if she wanted it she said yes and her husband installed it later that day when it was somewhat cooler. My brother wanted me to charge them for using it and I said nope.It's now their air conditioner free and clear.I gave it to them.

                               ***Sandy***
Sandy every Friday had liked to played Bingo at the American Leigon but one day her husband Mike said he had to work on Friday night and had asked me if I can take her to bingo on Friday instead. I said sure. Mike gave me a little money but he didn't have to. After bingo the Mike's money I haven't use I gave back.

                            ***Larry**
I have had help Larry to fix his toilet. He had a broken assembly and wanted it replaced with a reverse pump the one without the ball assembly. I scared the crap out of  Larry because I knew It wouldn't   fit, so I decided make it fit via a hacksaw.After I hacked out the old assembly I had installed the reverse pump and turn the water back on. Larry and I tested it and it worked well . Yes, we will leave that alone it's working fine. If it ain't broke then don't fix it.
By the way if your toilet has a reverse pump do not put any cleaners in your toilet tank like cleaning cakes.It will clogged your reverse pump. Cleaners and cleaner cake inside the toilet bowl itself is okay.
         
  ****Helping  others with computer problems****
I have helped a lot of people with their computer problems so here they are mostly the same story and sometimes as a way to say thank you  the girls/wives invited me to dinner but they really didn't have to.

That Sunday;That Spring

  Usually, when I fall down, on the floor, I can sometimes roll to my side, and lift myself up; But not this time, I had to use my life aler...
