Welcome To The 2nd Half Of 2013!

Greenguy · 2013-07-03, 09:03 AM

Morning

365 days in 2013. Yesterday was #183, so today is #184. Technically, at Noon yesterday, the 2nd half of 2013 started, but personally, I celebrate it today

Only 1 appointment today

which means I get to work for most of the day

which also brings up the question of why am I so

to be working so much?

I'm a little pissed at myself that I forgot to watch any of the Zimmerman trial yesterday. So that live feed direct from the courtroom is up & streaming on the iPad. IMHO, so far, the prosecution has proved nothing. It was clearly a case of self defense.

OK then,

a good one

Sitting in a dentist chair after getting shots to numb me up. The rest of the day has to get better than this.

No teeth pulled, just fresh new EXPENSIVE veneers on my two front teeth.

Good morning, just the usual here for me.

Greenie, self defense? I honestly have not watched the trial but from what I read didn't the guy follow the kid? And then the kid, presumably attack the dude? Or did Zimmerman start it first? That's the big question right? Then Zimmerman shot the kid? That isn't really self defense IF he started the confrontation by following and harassing the kid. So it all comes down to who "started the altercation"?

Either way, it's a fucked up situation and that dude Zimmerman should NEVER have followed the kid in the first place.

Correct. He should have stayed in his car like he was told to.

Good morning world

Just another day of trying to get the usual things done while also learning a few new things so I can be a little less dependent on the things I usually do. And all while doing my best to not be bothered at all by the unbelievable amount of time the media is dedicating to the Zimmerman trial, which I see as just one more shiny object being used to distract us.

Over 30 people are killed by handguns every day just in the USA, while worldwide there are around 525,000 homicides each year and another 180,000 are killed in wars or similar conflicts. But why look at the big picture when we can narrow our focus down to what one man did to one other young man on one particular day.

If it's a bright shiny object that they want us to look at, it's usually because there's something else they'd rather we don't see. It's not magic, it's misdirection.

Wishing everyone a day filled with seeing the things they'd rather we didn't.

Here in Florida and in Texas it's perfectly legal for white guys to shoot black guys, you just can't lynch them

Hello from the east coast. In Beverly Farms now enjoying some classic new england july 4th vibes. Last night went to my first Fenway game. Fantastic park. Been enjoying a little time off while coding on some fun projects. Also have been reading the book Masters Of Doom. Such a fun read. I can remember so much of those games and BBS stuff.

Anyway, have a happy 4th. Time to eat some dinner.

Zimmerman was on the Neighborhood Watch & was following him, then he was told to stop by 911 & he did. Then he lost sight of him. Next time he saw him, Trayvon was verbally combative, then a fight started, Trayvon was on top of Zimmerman, punching him, banging his head on the sidewalk, said "You're gonna die tonight", Zimmerman shouted for help, and fearing for his life, pulled his gun & shot him.

That's what I'm getting out of it.

The only magazine I subscribe to is one about old games and computers/consoles, called Retro Gamer. They have a website if you are interested, it is: http://www.retrogamer.net/
