Happier New Year !

For some,the past several years have been rough! Hopefully,the Road of Life in 2018 will have fewer bumps. Of course, this is easier said than done. However, in the past we have all learned that Unity,Teamwork, Commitment,Resources, Courage and a little Know-How from a few friends can smooth that road and let it lead to better health,unshackled spirits,equal justice and economic stability ! I wish everyone a full unfettered life and a Happier 2018 New Year !

The Digital Magi At Christmastime ?

Needless to say,I get in more trouble trying to figure things out! The BIG question tonight was whether there was any evidence to locate God via a Google-search.Did or does God have a digital fingerprint? Is God connected to the usual social media ? Does God tweet ? Does God use Snapchat, Instagram and does God have an email address? All of these questions were prompted by today's geo-socio-political-global-economic -global climate blah, blah, blahs and the merry merry blathering of 'strong men and women' who don the costumes of power and control. Well, as usual I expected to find no clues to such a complex inquiry.But then, hoboclowns can only really comprehend what's at the end of their noses. I did learn that each individual body of mankind is really an exceptionally wealthy multi-billionaire many times over. They all live momentarily then all die collectively or individually! There is some relief in that observation. I also found a link that suggests that today's Magi would most likely follow "human genetic sequencing" versus a "star in the east". In the following link,you will find a quote by "Dr. Anthony Few (a former atheist) who said that, " Super-intelligence is the only good explanation for the origin of life and the complexity of nature".The article went on to note that "The tiny space in every cell in your body;this code (DNA) is three billion letters long (and that) 99.9% of your DNA is similar to everyone's genetic makeup". The authors of this article also pointed out that,"The US government is able to identify everyone in our country by the arrangement of a nine-digit social security number.Yet, inside every cell in you is a three-billion lettered DNA structure that belongs only to you". The upshot is that there is a super-intelligence that put these unique structures together.It is comforting to know that the total well-being of all mankind is not completely dependent upon each limited sphere of local culture and government.

Impossible ?

On Father's Day,June,2017 I learned that a good  young adulthood friend of mine (who I referred to as my 'little brother')  had died in 2014. Since and up until today I  belatedly mourned the loss . This evening I
sought a sign of consolation that everything is  alright with him  and recalled our inside joke of using the word, "impossible" when we were exasperated  or thoroughly amused by something.
I decided to search for a clue of his current well-being  by  looking up a definition of the word,IMPOSSIBLE. There were several definitions but only the following one fit the circumstances at hand-

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=impossible

My real question was whether it is possible to connect with those in the hereafter.I believe my question was answered in the above definition reviewed. I think the joke was still on me ! What do you think ?

Comey vs Trump: Romp At The Swamp ?

When 'Credibility' is the weapon of choice in a duel,which opponent has the upper hand ?
Hopefully, an 'Intelligent Committee' can render the votes and select a winner.Was it a win, lose
or draw ? Who delivered the 'Infallible' Punch ? I looked for clues to help with the score-keeping
and located one at the following link
  https://www.google.com/#q=ex+cathedra+definition

Both opponents appeared to have stellar credentials by virtue of their official positions.This
circumstance forced my focus to  shift  away from the opponents to the very  the notions of 'Credibility' and 'Infallibility'  and whether public servants are duly-endowed with  such characteristics by virtue of their office ? Naturally, as a hoboclown I tried to catch both 'Credibility" and 'Infallibility',bottle them, add carbonated water and sell them at "The Swamp". I failed ! Just as well, as I couldn't find any "Angel Investors " !
Maybe Congress can put a "sin tax" on 'em !

Lessons for Mankind?

Here I am again, looking for clues  about the education of early mankind! If you're like me and sit in a cave  long enough, you begin to wonder about the basics of  the  Life experience. We all know that the printing press, computers,  the internet and smart phones did not always exist or did they ?How was knowledge,  problem-solving ,rules of conduct, social courtesies, family connectedness  and basic customs conveyed to early man? I suspect  that some were conveyed through observation and interaction between  early man and lower animals. One such  well-studied  subject is the characteristics of elephant communal  life.We, modern and 'civilized humanity' can still learn many lessons from the past and today's  elephant community. All it takes is a little bit of study and observation. Read about the elephants at the following link and tell me if you agree !

A White House Ten Code For Comey ?

What do the feds do and how do you talk to 'em ? In search of a clue to the  correct answer to that question,I  perused a pseudo-digital archive of   TV character, Sgt. Joe Friday, of the Dragnet  fame.
Being somewhat of a character myself, I  was intrigued by  the following script quote,

---

"Dragnet: The Big Cast (#1.5)" (1952)

Sgt. Joe Friday: This is the city. Every 24 hours a little bit of everything happens. Two million people make a lot of history in one day. They write it all down and file it away. Some of it's important, some of it isn't. Business, industry, government - you buy a three-cent stamp or an oil well - they keep records of it. Progress, money, success... and failure. A complete history of every day; some of it's public, some personal. It's all written down. In my job we catalog trouble. I'm a cop.

That last sentence above  says it all !   'Unit 1, how do you read ? What's your location ? Return to station ! Over and  out ! '

Read the scripts for yourself. It makes for interesting reading ...

The Battle of the Alamo

Long Live The Alamo Sanctuary City ?

Snoop, snoop, snoop again! Why must only the clown go in ?Texas seems to be big on a Bill to
squash Sanctuary Cities ? When ol' Flash Mc Cool was just a young buck hoboclown detective,
he cheered on Davy Crockett and the boys at "The Alamo" . So what you ask ? Well, to this ol' hoboclown detective, it seems like Texas and American  history was on the side of the "Sanctuary City" at least in terms of  "The Alamo". Read all about it ! Then tweet all about it ?  Check it out for yourselves at the following link,

     https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alamo_Mission_in_San_Antonio

Did  "The Alamo" set the legal precedent for the  preservation or eradication of  the "Sanctuary City" ?

"Long Live The Alamo" ? ?  Hmmmmm?

GOPer Healthcare ?

Pyramids were built in honor of the Pharoahs. "Obamacare" was attributed to the Obama  administration's  development of the Affordable Care Act. 
 Looking for a clue as to what to call the new "Obamacare" Replacement, I came upon  the following  link,

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/GOPer    

Since 'DonaldCare' sounds a little too personal  and 'TrumpCard -Health Plan' connotes  too much of a gamble, perhaps the "Obamacare" replacement should be labeled,'GOPer Healthcare'.  What's in a name anyway ?

It's the benefits that count !

A Digital Lie Detector ?

Many lies, near-truths and untruths can be embedded in the human imagination,so says I, the fictional hoboclown detective .It is my comedic job to investigate and find veracity in stated declarations and accounts.Veracity is just a big word for a measurement or assessment of "The Truth".Veracity is a precious tool as many cultures and kingdoms have historically held that,"The Truth will set ye free!" Some ancients used many crude tools to detect deception. Is there a method used today that provides digital deception detection ? I found a lead that suggests a useful digital technique that can detect online deception. I'd sell it to you for a quarter but that would be dishonest because it does not belong to me. So why don't you just hit the fellas up at the following link to see if they can lend you a discerning hand - http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/crux/2016/06/29/how-to-spot-a-lie-online/#.WL38fTgwBkg

Suci Dalam Debu by Shiha Zikir

The Dollar Song ?

Even old Hoboclowns get distressed from time to time.I decided to go to a favorite dining haunt for lunch and ordered a large red beans and rice with a biscuit and a small soda.The counter girl commented,"The small soda costs $2.29.Do you still want it?" Obviously, to wash down my culinary misery feast,I said 'Yes'. Sitting alone at a tiny table for two,I was nearly finished my lunch when a man about 55 years old and ten years my junior, walked in the restaurant, stopped at my table and asked if I wanted to buy a ___. I thought he said "buy a dog". He answered,"No, do you wanna buy a ___"and showed me a piece of paper with writing on it.Naturally, with old eyes all I saw was a piece of looseleaf paper with blurry writing on it. I asked him to let me see the piece of paper and he gave it to me while saying, " Will you give me a dollar for this song?How much would you give me for that song? A dollar, two dollars ? I wrote it myself. How much do you think it's worth ?"I put on my readers and began to read the "song" and after reading through the first five words, I told him I would give him $3.00 and quickly folded the paper and placed it in my shirt pocket. With that the man exclaimed," Wow! You think it's worth $ 3.00 ?" . I told him 'yes' and he smiled and walked out of the restaurant door. Curiosity was getting me because I realized that the "song" that the man wrote was really a prayer. Next, I stopped at the store to buy a small doggie food mat and a bag of treats for the dog and tomorrow's sunday newspaper.Now,I will fully read the "song" ( prayer) for the first time and share it with you: " 01 I love God because He 02 first love me I love god 03 because He love you 04 and lots of kind like 05 all things god Jesus Holy 06 Spirit has made " To me, the lyrics are really a spiritual affirmation or testimony or a psalm-like selfie written by a stranger. Was he really a stranger or was he well known by the subject of his affirmation? Obviously, I thought the "prayer" was worth more than the $2.29 small soda.It was likely 'priceless' .I believe I got a bargain !
