I thought I would be able to go shooting today. It could happen, but not before my friend goes in. He not only has the 16:00 appointment, they are still adding iron to his blood, that at 14:00. They are adding 12 "units" of iron, injecting it mainline. They cannot give him a "unit" every day, so it is every other day for more than 3 weeks. Anyway. He will go to the other place once he gets his iron and try to sneak in early. Either way, it sounds like we will at least get out for a sandwich and some shopping. He likes to go along, and sometimes finds things he wants. Or, he might want to go somewhere just for his stuff. It beats biking in the hot sun, which is his normal method.
So, my plans of getting in early are up in smoke. Of course, I was running slow anyway. I did call and do a(nother) accident report, with a fully charged phone. This time I took the name of the woman, who is other than the adjuster for the claim, who recorded the question and answer interview. If I get another call saying I did not supply an interview, I will give them her name. I am starting to think companies are "losing" things so as to hold on to cash longer or something. I am getting a lot of lost stuff at places that should not lose stuff. I asked her to make sure it got in, and she said it is automatic and that she could not do otherwise. I told her that simply could not be the case because this was at least my second time of doing this. Huffy, I think that would be the word. She did not like that at all. Too bad, the truth hurts. But she did give me her name. Cow roping? Done! Ha!
I have not gotten to the boxes, or lunch. Slog day. But, that is fine. Boxes, I suppose. No, lunch. Definitely lunch. My belly-buddy is giving me those sad puppy growls and poking around my ribs for snacks with his little claws.
You know, I got a response from a comment I posted at some other yahoos digs, which I then commented back regarding. Some people simply are stuck in what they were taught and have not, cannot, or will not pull their head out of a noxious place. They want equality, but refuse to qualify or quantify why it should be "granted", how it can be "granted", or if "granting" equality even makes sense. Respect? You want it? Fragging earn it. Trust, appreciation, acknowledgment? Same thing. You look like a hood I will certainly treat you like one. You sound like a little brain washed whigor, I will treat you like one. You think you know half of what you know, take it out on the streets and show me. Equality? Show me. Or scoot. Most cannot even understand that there are real standards. They cannot bend their mind around the fact that without meeting standards, that nothing else goes forward.
Look, if someone is severely retarded... literally... fine. Just so long as they do not crawl behind the wheel of a car, load a gun, or a bunch of other things. If they stick with what they can do, and they have guidance to help them do all they can do in a safe manner while they figure things out, sure. Acknowledgment is easy. But when they demand equality, no. When they demand more than what they can function with safely, no. When people around me tell me Johnny is equal in spite of the fact he cannot scrawl his name, bath himself, or keep his shorts dry, again no! I do not do that. If it happens to be that Johnny is black, is that racism? No, even if it happens to be all of them. It is simple fact. And I will not quibble, let go, give up, or set it down until we get to a basic understanding, set emotions aside, and put things and people where they belong. Proving me wrong is not possible. In a few decades, with the end of super equality, they might get a chance. Though, from what I have seen world wide, the most they can do is live within their humble means and understand that it is what it is.
Some people really need to hear that. Coward, you say? I have been saying it for decades you jackboot. Most people cannot and have not because they have had the threat of criminal, civil, and social boots on their neck and simply want to get by that to get to the money they need to pay their rent. I, on the other hand, am in no such way crippled by the state, my employer, or Sissy rotten crotch down on the corner. I am self sufficient and immune to blackmail. In any case, I merely noted that his two bit word and attitude did not negate a thing I said. Nor, I suspected, did his multi-culti friends have his back, at least not in the way he is suggesting. He keeps it up I will point out that his ignorance and arrogance is only equaled by impotence. Boyeah.
Hope you did get to shooting after all.
ReplyDeleteNope, but it is all good. I had lunch, my friend is still alive, we did take a cruise up the canyon and got out for a look around and a smoke, got some shopping done, and that was good enough. Yes it was. Church tomorrow... I am pushing for it anyway. And then shooting Sunday. I'm taking the .45 and 3 boxes of ammo this time. Plus the .22 Henry lever. *plink* *BOOM* *plink*... *grins*
