OK Echo this----Flips the bird to the man and the machine



         Hello this crisp evening or early morning however you wish to look at it.  Beings it is almost one in the AM.   At least here.   I say crisp  because I am not sure of the temperature outside, but I do have a hoodie on.   It all feels chilly after it got to 76 today.    And about a week ago it was trying to snow in the desert.    Of course in Wyoming a normal Friday --gives you a heavy dose of all of the seasons   multiple times!   I am about to head out on a road trip ---I leave here this Monday, and am very excited.  But I also realize that I still have not posted all of my blog posts from my trip back home and beyond---because I took so many pictures on that great trip.   But the trip was last October.   Two daze into the trip I meet my buddy in Viva Las Vegas.  I probably would skip Vegas all together except that he lives so close, I have a free room comped, and other freebies, and the sure lingering thought that I could hit it big while there.   I am still not sure where I will be visiting the first night --about Exploring.   I was thinking Flagstaff or The Grand Canyon, but I have been to these areas before, and they are kind of a long way    the wrong direction.   Than I travel with my friend on his move to Bozeman MT   from the desert.   Yes I am digging out real coats for the trip.   Yes I am still helping him out even after he told me   he is moving to a third story apartment.   Luckily apartment daze are not in our near future.  And even with motels ---with my wife's issues walking, we rarely get anything off the ground floor.   We is to poor to stay in onna those fancy places with them new inventions, elevators I think they call them?   I really need this trip, but it also puts me on the road on my wife and my wedding anniversary.    I know she says it is the perfect gift, me being states away and all.    On the same note it puts me in Bozeman on St Patty's day---and green beer.   Enough said ;)
      The last time I was in Vegas was the night after the big shooting last October.    And the whole town ---understandably so, was very strange.   Years ago we lived on the other side of the desert and Arizona, and going to Vegas was just a jump and  a skip away.   We ended up there a good deal.  On the last trip, you could walk down the strip   or in any casino   and not just keep bumping into people.   It was spooky, and I had a terrible time trying to explain things with out using words like how dead it was     Bad Steven!      Soon after I returned home on that trip a huge memorial was set up    just before the strip.   And I would love to visit it ---but I can not find anyone for the life of me   that has any clue if the memorial is even still there.   Strange!?   Stranger yet    is how fast all of this amazing BS   just seems to have gone away.   From news casts, from our hearts and prayers, from our minds.  Yes it was October of last year, but that is not yet been a year---and this was huge!  Wow!  I know to many people are focused on there number one---which is themselves   and they are glued to there smart phones and blah blah blah   but there are a lot of awake people in America    and people ready to take the country back.  How much pushing can be done ---in the name of safety    in the name of big government,  for the pure sake of taking our 2nd amendment away---why do we the people, we the awake people, keep letting things down slide?    Maybe I am just not one of the awake enough people to see the revolution brewing?   Hell I grew up in Wyoming    and the states near it are full of people   of the grid people that have compounds of weapons and are far less crazy than the people that are shooting up schools and the Vegas Strip now.  Just sayin'

         Even more devastating to me----personally    is that I returned home from that trip in October, and still do not have all my posts up about the trip in my Exploring blog page.   ;)   Although there are four amazingly picture filled posts to Explore through    just from that trip.   So you know the last few weeks and this up coming trip will produce some great pictures and stories!


      OK I try to stray from politics and Big Brother and such for the most part here----but tonight I am on a roll.   I try to push the limits on my Facebook pages ---because I can     but still usually keep things pretty PG and tame for the sake of many of you out there that might be related to a snowflake.  ;)    I really enjoy this page, because one has to physically click several buttons to get to this sight-----you can't just be offended by my thoughts and rambling by mealy scrolling your news feed like on Facebook.   If that makes any sense.      Still I usually try to keep my thoughts on here random and joking----and coffee filled----and keep my marital issues out of here---because hell we all have issues.   And next post I promise to return to wit and coffee love!    Or you can simply scroll to the bottom of this post and click on ---older posts   and probably laugh so much that you might even pee yourself just a little bit.  No really.  
    I have to talk about those in home devices like "Echo" and such real quick.   Yell--turn on the radio to them  and they do it---the device can order stamps to be sent to your home, look up a recipe for you    whatever----it's beyond Google-----and if you have read my blogs before   you might know that I despise Google------it like  a good woman, simply knows to much!   I am not saying I don't use Google,   or enjoy it, any less than I enjoy my great woman, but it's an evil evil sight.      Again   just sayin'     and what do I know!?    So with the Echo type systems----people across the country are reporting that the system starts a bit of hysterical laughter, out of no where.   Random strange ass laughing echoing through your house....   Now some are saying that the system is programed to do this, when there is an awkward long quiet moment----wait   thing about that----and it's even more freaking creepy.....
      First --I don't even like to use Google--and all of us have seen how Facebook "spys" on us.   Type in some simple searches   and the next time you enter the sight---your pop up ads are about what you have looked up---bananas or banana hammocks or fruit fly condoms.   I will go so far as to even swear that I have talked about lets say chickens in front of my laptop, to my wife   and the next day I have a screen full of ads about chick sales, egg deals, coming first----ill give you a second on that one,   or the health benefits of licking chicken butts----I can not prove this    but I swear it is true.   Several years ago people swore that there flat screen TVs were spying and listening to them.   And some things truly are----although I can not for the life of me figure out who the hell wants all this information.   My life is so boring many daze  I can't imagine someone spying on all of that nothing going on , and not having to drink heavily after returning to there home.   So why would anyone want a device anything like an Echo in there home?   Have they never seen the space movie where the computer takes over everything?    


     OK---   so tomorrows post will be much more light hearted.    I apologize.    Have a great day    unless your Echo and plasma TV are now running all of your appliances in your home and you are now there slaves.
