It Gets Better

Im trying to get the most out of this. As Saul Alinsky said:

  • Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules to trap them in hypocrisy. 
  • Use ridicule as a potent weapon to infuriate the opposition into making mistakes.

My Solution

Make an announcement:

Return to your cells immediately. In 5 minutes’ time, any inmate found outside of their cell will be shot for attempting escape.

Then sweep through the jail and shoot every single inmate found out of their cells. You could stream the body cam on pay per view and allow betting on which inmates would be shot. Relieve overcrowding, make money for the jail, end the riot all in one afternoon.

Problems

I am aware that some of you have tried to setup accounts here. I will look into it when I get a bit of spare time. I am trying to migrate another blogger to my server, take care of honey-do lists, complete MBA courses, blog, and somehow find time to work, sleep, and take a crap, so it might be awhile.

I used to enjoy playing Falcon years ago. I decided to play DCS in the near future, or at least when my MBA is done. I dropped $2700 on a new computer, but I won’t have time to try out the game for a few months yet. Still, for you computer nerds:

  • AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 4.2GHz (5.0GHz Turbo Boost) CPU
  • 1TB Gen4 NVMe M.2 SSD
  • 2TB Gen4 NVMe m.2 SSD
  • 360mm AIO Liquid CPU Cooler
  • NVIDIA Geforce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB GDDR7 Graphics Card
  • 64GB DDR5 RAM 6000 RGB Gaming Memory
  • 32 inch 4K monitor
  • WinWing Orion 2 HOTAS and Rudder Pedals

Christmas

It’s Christmas Day, and it’s time for family. Consider watching some of my favorite Christmas movies with your family:

Traditional:

  • Miracle on 34th Street (the black and white version with Natalie Wood, not the remake, and not the one that Ted Turner colorized) This is the one that my Dad watched with us every year. As a teen, I was sick of watching this one, but as an adult I really appreciate the memories that come with it.
  • It’s a Wonderful Life: My parents didn’t like this one, but I have grown to appreciate the wholesome message here. I try to watch this one every year.

Action:

  • Die Hard: My sister doesn’t think this is a Christmas movie, but her husband agrees with me on this one.

Comedy:

  • Four Christmases: This one has become a favorite in the past couple of years. I love the scene where Vince Vaughn visits his mother. I always laugh.
