The house finch was by today.... |

I've seen everyone getting new pets, and felt like I was missing something myself. So, I got me a cute little hedgehog. His name is Scrappy, and he is so small and cute. I love him. And he isn't messy at all... |

| I wonder things from time to time. I wonder if it's an easy transition to go from beheadings, burning people alive in cages, raping women and children to having to accept that offer letter from the Bank for a neat new job, where you may have to wait in line for the elevator, share the milk in the pantry, and possibly get rated a 4 during your annual performance review. You may need to hear someone pass a nasty remark like Happy Easter, or have a nice Thanksgiving ... |
And I wonder, what's the best way to detail your 'work experience' on that resume. Do you just list it under one main bullet - 'Proficient in MS Office Products, beheadings, cage burnings and rape'. Do you list that before your hobbies, or under hobbies.
It ain't easy being me ...
Kill 'em all, let Allah sort them out ...

A Happy Birthday shoutout to my cousin from the Motherland, JB. Enjoy your day. Miss u my friend ... |

Be careful with this advice, it could backfire and you wind up in deep shit with the popo, especially if you 'scare' someone ... Better check your pants, your balls must be in someone's handbag ... |

|
Caught this great looking robin red breast on our tree today... |

Happy Anniversary and Congratulations to my friend Boom Boom. He reaches 30 years of loyal service to the bank. You've been a part of amazing things my friend, and always be proud of what you have accomplished over your career. But most of all, thank you for your friendship for this ENTIRE time. We know each other longer than some couples are married. And we both were born in East Harlem, so it explains our special bond. I love you and miss you at the perch brother, congrats !!! |
|
Thank you to AK for the good paint job on 1w10 today. We really needed it. |

An interesting perspective on the NYPD situation. http://thefederalist.com/2014/12/31/the-nypds-revolt-is-a-direct-threat-to-democracy/ |
|
I happen to agree. Anyone who turned their back, should resign. We The People are at the top of the pyramid. Would you support a soldier turning their back as our president spoke ? This is a labor issue pure and simple, with an apparent job action taking place... Sad, and explains a lot ... |

Real proud of JjLJr, been trying to quit smoking, using the patch for the past few weeks, and he's doing real good. Keep it up boy, and count up the savings ... |

Well, Lollipop 5.0.2 was not what I expected it to be. My tablet performance was abysmal. So, I did the radical thing, and downgraded back to KitKat vers. 4.4.4 - It seems to be back to it's perky self, and the process wasn't that difficult. Be warned, Even if you have your device backing things up, they don't all come back on the restore, and you need to do a bit of manual restoring ... Now to remember to ignore those next OTA upgrades ... |
|
For once, I'm looking forward to a delayed MTA project. Anything that keeps less riders on the 7 train before it hits 5th Ave on the way to Queens, I'm good with. More riders means less likely I get a seat ... |

|
Well that's a rough start to the new year. Big Dip fell or sat on Little Dip, and now he's got a broken leg ... Should be fun watching him scoot up and down stairs with the cast ... Heal fast little dude !!! |
