Getting Off My Butt .....



Distractions, distractions *.......

I work out of town, so I usually have lots of time to piddle around with the computer.  However, this weekend my family was visiting, so between taking care of the kids, and paying attention to my wife, I didn't get anything done on this blog.

(By the way ..... my wife discovered this blog, so I'm gonna have to tone down some of my more outrageous opinions and rantings.  Bummer!)

Not, mind you, that being with my family for a few days is something to complain about.  Truth be told this silly blog is the distraction; my "real life" consists of time spent with wife and kids.

That being said, let's return to the topic of this blog, namely, making money online.

I decided I would test the $200-$300 / day "easy" paste and click method being currently pushed by Kevin David, (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_6QrrppG7I  -  he seems a bit slimy; watch until the end of the video!), and Franklin Hatchett, (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XL9hw6jfNg).  My guess is that this is a HUGE waste of time, but having time on my hands at the moment, I'll give it a whirl.

I've got three ads on http://www.thefreeadforum.com/ so far:

I also submitted an ad to https://www.global-free-classified-ads.com/ , but it has to be approved by a moderator.  (My experience reading https://www.reddit.com/ gives me a healthy distrust of moderators!)

And that, boys and girls, is the totality of my online marketing efforts to date.  I'm not off to a flying start, to say the least!


* - Entertaining my two young sons is tiring for this old man. When I run out of energy my brain starts to malfunction rather severely.  As an example, here is some crap I wrote Saturday night after walking around Stone Mountain Park with the kids.  It reads like a mediocre junior high school kid's creative writing exercise.

Caligula's Hair Creme

Caligula's hair creme was moderately sticky, and of a rather sluggish viscosity.  But it did keep his hair fixed into ever tightening spirals of madness, much like the winding of an eternally incorrect clock.

Sometimes the only way to find the bean is to go ahead and plant the vine, avoiding frequencies likely to attract giants.  Pretty basic processes, actually.

"Give me a link," she cried, and we foolishly obliged: https://www.youtube.com/watchv=Z_6QrrppG7I , (Kevin David, whom I wouldn't buy a used car from), and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XL9hw6jfNg , (Franklin Hatchett, a little better, but still dabbling in dodginess). 

Oh, for the sake of turnip, our everlasting dreams expired.  Oh, for the sake of a hubcap, no one would need to perspire! 

The leaves are listening, George ....

My Humble Opinion on "Black Lives Matter"

Image
So what's an ignorant, old, grumpy, white man 's opinion of this recent " Black Lives Matter " movement? To begin with, I'm not comfortable with ANY organization that separates people based on, well, anything other than behavior or gender.  (Yes, I'm reactionary enough to believe in only two genders !)  Physical traits, (excepting gender, of course), is absolutely the WORST criteria by which to judge people.   Lump me in with all the folks who proclaim that " ALL Lives Matter ". As for the BLM movement itself, I have serious misgivings with many of their " beliefs ", particularly this one quoted directly from their website : "We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable." Considering that over 60% of black children

Driveway Improvements!

Image
Working on the Road Yesterday folks here got tired of my bitching-and-moaning about the horrid condition of the access road and driveway here, so Sweetie paid for some gravel to be delivered, and the neighborhood guys pitched in to help spread it over the muddy ruts. If you remember the prior post, ( A Very Wet Dry Season ), when it rains our driveway turns into a gross mess.  Well, I am very pleased to report that the driveway has been improved, at least temporarily: Our New and Improved Driveway I don't know what will happen to this gravel once the torrential rains of true Wet Season start, but at least this is a much needed temporary improvement.  (I even helped spread some of the gravel across the driveway!) Long term I'd like to put a cement path/patio outside the kitchen door, and cement paths to both the front door and the dreaded outdoor CR, (or at least stepping stones), but I understand that progress here must be incremental.

Posting on Noise.Cash

Image
So for the last month or so I have been ignoring this blog, and posting my "fascinating" accounts of life in rural Philippines on Noise.Cash.  Why?  Because I get paid, (a penny or two), for my activity there. Woo hoo!  I'm a PAID writer!! Unfortunately, Noise.Cash doesn't have a good way to list your posts, so I'm going to give links to some, (15 or so), of my more relevant posts here, in order of oldest to newest.
