Fill in the Google

So you know when you are searching and Google is trying to guess what you are typing and the site automatically fills in weird results?  Don’t you think the results are sometimes bizarre?  You have to understand that lots of people are searching for weird shit. 


So I thought that it would be cool for me to post up some of the results. 

These are actual suggestions for Google.  No, I didn’t make this up.

So Type

 Too Many

and you get the follwing in this order.

1.        Ninjas

2.       Items in Minecraft (I am guessing a video game)

       3.       Loose Strings

4.       Items

5.       Items mod

       6.       Fish

7.       Sebastians

8.       Daves

9.       Items Minecraft Mod

10.   Puppies.

So right off the top of my head, I find it amazing that people have the perception that there isan   excess of Ninjas.  No seriously, there are too many.  Now when I walk around, I will be even more paranoid.  Jeez.


My next observation is there must be a video game that people are currently obsessed with called Minecraft.  This shit took 4 of the top ten spots.  People need to cheat to get ahead in these games.

So Dave Sebastian gets a lot of work, and I just didn’t know his name.  He is one of those voiceovers for commercials and trailers for movies.  He does lots.  The gig is fucking awesome.  The problem is that it is waaay hard to get in.  Your voice has to truly be distinct, and be able to take direction well.  On the good side, it’s easy money once you are in.

From what I can deduct from this further is that more people are concerned about the people think we have too many fish in the sea.  I would have always thought it was a good thing to have an excess of fish.  I would be the Japanese would agree as well as other nations. 

Oh and the last one that people think that there are too many loose strings.  This one is easy;  all you need is 3 letters:  OCD.  Yup.  People are concerned with the fact that there are just too many loose strings out there.  I don't know how else to convey that people have come to a conclusion that it is epedemic and even endemic.  We normal people just don't know the severety.  Or do we?  I am not going to lie to you.  You must be true to yourself.  I don't like loose strings.  I fucking HATE them on jeans especially on the part that touches your heel.  Seriously though, it has never EVER been a problem that I had to go online to seek help to fix it. 

So evidently there is a band called Too Many Puppies.  They have nothing in the news so nothing to report there!

Yup, His Head is Inside!

So we went to the Crocodile Farm in Thailand

And we definitely got our money's worth.  I really didn't know what to expect.  I didn't even know that there were crocodiles in Thailand in the first place.  So the event's theme music was the Hawaii Five-O.  Rest assured, I thought that they did treat the croc's with respect. 

Ok so in Thailand, they definitely blur the lines between circus and zoo.  I thought it was good and bad.  We all like some entertainment, and to be honest with you this is by far the most fun I have ever had at a "zoo".  The crocs looked like they had a nice enviornment, but I wished that the other animals had a nice envoirnment as well.

Floating Market in Thailand

One of the biggest tourist things in Thailand is the Floating Market.  This is from way back when they used to have markets only on boats.  Now they made this tourist friendly place with rivers going through it.  I thought it was super cool.

This place reminds me of Disneyland for some reason.

And this is the curious "Happy Feet" 

You ask yourself, WTF is that?

Scroll down some more...

And here I am.  Yup.  Those are my feet.

Lots of little fishes eating my dead skin!  Yup, it works miracles too!  In Thailand, it is hot and humid all the time and seriously, my feet were the freshest and lightest part of my body.  Amazing.

Speaking of food, Lunchtime!  Each boat has their dish that they prepare.  The lady closest is the one that takes your order.  They run out of the good stuff first.

No a/c but at least it was in the shade.

 

This was the bomb. 

Ancient Siam

They have this temple theme park in Thailand called Ancient Siam.  They have replica "mini" temples.  The place is gigantic and has tons of temples to check out.  You get a golf cart and take your time looking at spots.  Very peaceful

They like the Buddah!

Standing and sitting!

And I went up the steps!

Kind of reminds me of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom!

Here is the view from the top

My personal favorite temple!

You can go inside SOME of the temples!  Nice hardwood floors...

Ceiling has alot going on too.

Altar?

Party Veedub in Phuket

Hello all!  This is my first posting from my phone.  So you all can see my posts of my adventures even quicker.  If you see a different quality of pics, it's because its from my phone.  My droid's 8mp camera is ok, but no match for my 15mp camera. 

So while we were in Phuket, Thailand walking around, I saw this pimped out pink VW Microbus.  But it was a full bar!

Bugs

No, I didn't eat the bugs.  I wanted to though.  To be absolutely honest with you, we just at a HUGE meal, and then we went to see some ruins, and the only bug stand I saw was here.  My plan was to walk around to develop some appetite and down some.  When I went back, the guy was gone.  At least I was smart enough to take some pictures initially.  I really was looking to try some bugs.  It seems that it is less common in Thailand lately.  

Portuguese Settlement

So one of our stops in the tour of Thailand was this Portuguese settlement.  These people brought to Thailand those absurdly spicy peppers!  So we saw this half built monument and saw the remains of the original structure.   And then we saw this.

This is not an illusion.  Yup, those are skeletons.  They are not even fully buried!  Amazingly, I didn't blink.  I thought that these people could have been treated more respectfully, but hey, it's not my problem!



Shoes in Temples

Check out the Grand Palace!

View from the outside!

Grand Temples!

Ok so when you go to Thailand, you should check out the Temples.  There are quite a few of them but the one to see is the Royal one that the King goes to.  Representing the USA, I really tried to respect the culture and go along with whatever people do so that no one gets pissed off and no one goes to jail.  So I saw this sign, looked down at my rare white Jordans that were easily 10 year old and gulped.  Then I went inside and noted there were more rules.  No pictures/videos in the Temple.  I was totally ok with that one.  Needless to say, I was in the Temple a short period of time and I got my

Jordan's back!

 

4

In Thailand, traffic is epic, so the way to get around town is the scooter.



So when you look at this poorly shot picture, you ask yourself, big deal.  Well, count the people.  This was the record amount of people I saw on one scooter.  4.

Lexus 250HS

What's happening??


In this episode, I will give you my review of my loaner car, the Lexus 250 HS. Oh and the HS stands for.... drumroll please... Harmonious Sedan. Hmmmm. No, I didn't make this shit up. I was surprised when I was doing my homework, and found that out. I guess if they mean Harmonious as in complete boredom, I can see it named appropriately.

2010 Lexus 250 HS

I drove this car for nearly a week and racked up nearly 900 miles. So I got a good idea of what this vehicle is all about. I truly felt like a passenger driving this car. This car really feels disconnected as much as possible. It was quiet if you don't floor it, but when you do floor it, it makes this moaning as if it is in agony. Speaking of feeling things, I didn't feel the "smugness" that people have when they drive their Priuses.  Perhaps if I got better MPG that the average gas powered Honda Civic I would have felt more smug.

It helps to be mellow driving this car because if you are in a rush, this isn't the car to be in. Every time you floor it, the car hesitates, and then goes. Supposedly it goes 0-60 in 8.4 seconds? The Prius takes an agonizing 10 seconds? When you have a slowpoke car, it feels like the traffic swallows you. When you have my 305 HP IS350, you gun it and get out of situations.

OH and FYI, the Prius starts at 28k. Option it up, and you are looking at 35k. Which, coincidentally is the starting price of the Lexus. Hmmmmmm. Option the Lex up and you are looking at 42-46k. OUCH! You pay more, and get waaay less MPG. How less? The Prius gets 50MPG? This Lexus gets 35? (I actually got 30 MPG) Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the entire concept of the "hybrid" is to save gasoline? Why the fuck would anyone in their right mind cough up more money for a Lexus to get significantly less MPG?

The interior is weird. I think that the navigation location is great. The mouse is great. I think its cool that they have a usb connector for your music and charging. And that is the end of my list of interior compliments or compliments in general.

The dash is similar to the Prius. It feels like its sliding down into your lap. I personally don't like it because it feels like you are driving the Starship Enterprise and not a car. It seems a bit claustrophobic. When you have the dash flat like a table, the ergonomics fall short. The buttons on the dash were hard to find, all the same size, and very cluttered. I thought that there were too many buttons on the steering wheel and that they felt cheap like Styrofoam.

I hated the shifter. I hated the button for park. I hated that the stupid car beeped (in the inside) when I put it in reverse. I thought this shit was for the outside! When I heard it for the first time, I scratched my head and wondered what kind of people needs to be reminded to be alert while driving in reverse?

Bottom line, I really think this car is a rip-off. I am sooooo disappointed in Lexus for producing this overpriced feel-good eco car that grossly underperforms in the MPG area.  Diesels can easily get better MPG with less weight and the overall cost is less.  Just for the record, those batteries that run these hybrid cars come from countries that may not be our friends in 5 years.  Just let that "swirl in your head".  Outside the mighty country of USA, they drive diesel cars that easily do 30mpg, most do 40+MPG and others do even more and cost less.  You know, they could have gotten the Prius, upgrade the interior, put a diesel engine in it put some Lexus labels on it then call it a day.  I bet you would get 40 MPG+ and cost the same as a fully loaded Prius.

Athiest's Bible

So in case you haven't been reading the news, there is this guy that wrote a new version of the Bible. I was actually amazed that this guy somehow made an Atheist Bible. When I read about it, he made this Bible with some of the "original" elements in it but put in other good ideas from other religions.

In fact, that is one of things that I believe religion just is... a good idea to start with. So this guy did a mix-mash of all these religions, take the "GOD/JESUS" part out and tada, Atheist Bible.

Initially I thought that lots of people would scream blasphemy, and for the record, I am glad we don't have those stupid laws here. If you say something like that in some other country (like Pakistan) you can get executed. So, after some consideration, It makes sense.

Let's all be honest here and come up with honest truths. The fact that most of the religions have lots of similarities is not sheer coincidence. Do you really think Jesus was born in winter exactly on the 25th of December? Probably not. The fact was they chose that date to be his birthday was because of a PAGAN holiday has already been established for thousands of years on the 21st (Winter Solstice which is an indisputable event) and they "borrowed" the season from them. Do you think that it is a coincidence that we have all these religious holidays in December? Hardly not.

So back to this Atheist Bible. I believe that all these religions did borrow some of their content because at the end of the day they all try to help people out and inspire them to be good people. Now the stories are up for interpretation, but supposedly they all preach to be good. This makes some sense to include all the religions into one book and take out the "subjects" and focus on the message. I guess they could have put in a blank space where you write in your god's name. Then they could have called it the Universal Bible.

The Dickless Husbands of NYC, et al.

WTF is up with this dickless husbands that let their wives act a fool on "reality" tv?

Every single husband that is associated with one of the whores on tv is dickless.  I am literally ashamed of these guys that apparently whore out their wives (or girlfriends) so that they can become famous and somehow capitalize on this because they can't make it happen themselves.

You guys are a bunch of loosers.  You want to be famous, but seriously, no one wants to see your ugly ass on tv.  The viewers want to see your wives fight and show off their goods for the world to see.  No, we do not envy you.  Sorry.  My goal is to make enough dough so that my wife DOESN'T have to act like teenagers in high school to get paid.

You Are In

Hello World!!!

I am back from my Thailand adventure. I am truly changed. One thing that I have noticed throughout Thailand was that the people incredibly encourage people to embrace themselves however and not to criticize others without consideration. This place is one of the few that people from Iran can actually go to for vacation. I believe that they may have issues coming back and might have to sign additional "paperwork" but that is another conversation.

So, well this leads me to start telling people more often how I truly am; because I sometimes cringe when people assume that I am a Christian and I am not. I also feel that I am not true to myself by not educating people about my lack of religion. One of the consequences of my predicament is that some people cannot fathom me not "being in the club". And then they look at me weird. After that point I am disappointed in these people for being closed- minded.

So this really is a struggle and there isn't a whole lot that I can do about because with religion, you are either "In or out" and people have the tendency immediately judge you on the spot on that. I figure that this is one of my struggles and I will carry for the rest of my life.


So I decided to voice all my frustrations here hoping to feel vented afterwards. =)


For the record, I will post my Christian creds here.

Salem Lutheran Elementary/Kindergarten, 7 Years
Sun Valley Junior/Senior High. Methodist 4 Years
7th Day Adventist and Bible Class 5 Years
At least 5 Summer Bible things.

Trust me, I went through the full program and then some and then something happened to me. I stopped buying it because nothing made sense to me. The thing is that you truly need faith in something that is invisible, makes no sense, has no logic, erratic, and people always come up with some bs reason to rationalize it for normal people. With religion, I would be totally on board if I just saw some sort of empirical evidence proving it. Plants looking symmetrical don't count. Ok, so flowers look great; understood, but does that mean that some God had to take credit for it?

I have a question for all of you on in the Internet.

My question to you, does everything happen for a reason?

or

Do people just like to think of a reason for things to happen so that they can sleep better at night?

Everything good comes from God and everything bad is from the Devil? I think that is how it works, or that is how I was taught to think.

Where was God when the Holocaust was happening? What good came out of that? I would like to hear someone come up with an upside to this.
Oh I just one, this was an example of what exactly not to do. Hmmm I told you I was well versed.

So this ends this specific episode of this new chapter of my life. This will be definitely more thoughtful and deep than my previous
