Recycle This Post

Okay, so this is one of those posts from this blog that was written on this blog some time a blogger while ago in my attempt to maintain content for this blog and my other blog whenever bloggers block possible.

Now this passage is kind of funny, sort of. Or maybe it's not because it is about health and it is real. Well at least it makes a great statement about health and alternative medicine. This is one of those sayings that I saw on a friends refrigerator held on with a magnet the other day and I thought to repost it because hey, it's less writing sometimes:


The Great American Death Ceremony

The death ceremony began as a crude ritual back in the days of witchcraft. In recent years, it has developed into a science. It usually takes 10 to 15 years however, modern scientific advancements are shortening this period of time.

It starts with one simple headache. When the one aspirin will no longer cover up the headache, take two. After a few months, when two aspirin will no longer cover up the headache, you take one of the stronger compounds. By this time it becomes necessary to take something for the ulcers which have been caused by the aspirin. Now that you are taking two medicines, you have a good start. After a few months these medications will disrupt your liver function. If a good infection develops you can take come penicillin. Of course the penicillin will damage your red blood corpuscles and spleen so that you develop anemia. By this time all of these medication will put such a strain on your kidneys they should break down. It is now time to take some antibiotics. When these destroy your natural resistance to disease, you can expect a general flair up in all your systems. The next step is to cover up all of these symptoms with sulfa drugs. When the kidney finally plug up you can have them drained. Some poisons will build up in your system but you an keep going quite a while this way.

By now the medications will be so confused they won't know what they are supposed to be doing, but it doesn't really matter. If you have followed every step as directed you can now make an appointment with your undertaker.

This game is played by practically all Americans except for a few ignorant souls who follow nature.

Scrubs

Scrubs. Isn't that the name of one of those television shows that was on tv some time a while ago that was about some sort of hospital drama with people walking around wearing those medical scrubs and nursing uniforms? Well, this post happens to be about scrubs in real life. And if you happen to be looking for those scrubs for some reason or another, you can find them at http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/. As when you click on that scrubs website, all kinds of scrub sets, scrub hats, lab coats, shirts, jackets and accessories are to be found in styles, shapes and patterns that seem as if they could have come right off of one of those fashion run ways themselves, as in long gone are those basic blue and green hospital uniforms, well maybe they're still there to be found though. Heck, there seems to be even scrubs to be found for children these days and times. And now with the invention of all things internet, finding those blue sky scrubs and more can be just a website visit away.

Class

And being that I find myself blogging or reposting the topic of teachers and schools as in the following passage, that random or not so random thought comes to mind of having gone my way the other day on one of those New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority subways and then seeing what seemed like a classroom of school kids who were going their way also. And the thought occurred to me, for what reason are half of these children wearing eyeglasses, literally? Is it now mandatory to wear or be prescribed eyeglasses in school? Are those institutional fluorescent lights of Lucifer fluoresce himself, deceiver and bearer of stealing light from heaven blowing out every ones retinas at younger and younger ages? Is there some sort of internet guru to answer this question? As something about this occurrence found itself as yet another one of those random thoughts that wants to find itself on this blog at some point in blogger time. And so I continue to post the following passage that found its way in my email inbox that was sent from a friend who sent it to another friend who sent it to a friend and so on and so on and so on and so on:

NOMINATED FOR “BEST EMAIL OF THE YEAR 2010″!!!
After being interviewed by the school administration, the prospective teacher said:

‘Let me see if I’ve got this right.

‘You want me to go into that room with all those kids, correct their disruptive behaviour, observe them for signs of abuse, monitor their dress habits, censor their T-shirt messages, and instil in them a love for learning.

‘You want me to check their backpacks for weapons, wage war on drugs and sexually transmitted diseases, and raise their sense of self esteem and personal pride.
‘You want me to teach them patriotism and good citizenship, sportsmanship and fair play, and how to register to vote, balance a chequebook, and apply for a job.
‘You want me to check their heads for lice, recognize signs of antisocial behaviour, and make sure that they all pass the final exams.
‘You also want me to provide them with an equal education regardless of their handicaps, and communicate regularly with their parents in English, Spanish or any other language, by letter, telephone, newsletter, and report card.

‘You want me to do all this with a piece of chalk, a blackboard, a bulletin board, a few books, a big smile, and a starting salary that qualifies me for food stamps.
‘You want me to do all this and then you tell me. .. . I CAN’T PRAY!

Clean This

Hey again bloggers, or whoever could be reading this blog. And so on this blogging day I find myself blogging about the words and phrases rug cleaning tips and http://www.thesteamteam.com/austin-restoration-services/smoke-fire.shtml for some reason or another. And so what is there that I can say about these words and phrases that has not already been said in web 2.0 user generated content blogger time? Well, if you find yourself with one of those red wine stains on the carpet, maybe one of these websites can help you figure out how to remove that stain, other than just removing the whole carpet itself, or something like that. And if you happen to find yourself in or near that city of Austin, well then I would think that The Steam Team of Austin, Texas could help you figure out how to clean and restore that upholstery, rug and more even better. And now with the invention of all things internet, finding that steam cleaning and more can be just a website visit away.

And Yet Another Ode To Blogging

And it seems as if that Google page rank update wants to send me in search of a fifth full time job so much that I thought to post this post on this blog yet again in my internetaholicness.

And being that on this day seems to find itself another one of those blagh your way to the bankless days, I find myself wondering what to blah blog about, again. Simply for the sake of attempting to maintain content for this blog and my other blog whenever possible in this social media web 2.0 user generated content era. And so goes that bloggers block again to where I find myself posting this post I posted on this blog some time a while ago.....

And even when it seems as if the world is falling down all around me, I still find myself blah blogging for some reason. And if you happen to be one of those attempt to get rich internet quick blogaholics as I have found myself in times past, it seems as if that latest Google page rank update the other day wants to send me in search of a fourth full time job. And so I thought to post that "Ode to Blogging" again that I came across somewhere in internetland during my internet time and have found myself posting on this blog every so often:

An Ode To Blogging(sung to the tune of "Mercedes Benz" by Janis Joplin)

Oh Google, won't you give me a PageRank quickly?
My friends all have Adsense, but you banned me.
Blogged hard all my lifetime, trying to make money,
So Google, won't you give me a PageRank quickly?

Oh Shoemoney , won't give my blog a big plug?
I post every day, but never get Dugg.
I like how you're bald, but don't wear a rug,
So oh Shoemoney, won't you give my blog a big plug?

Oh AGLOCO , won't you give up your little green scam?
Your members flood my inbox with lots of spam.
You know that I'm not your biggest fan,
Oh AGLOCO, won't you give up your little green scam?

Bloggers!
Oh Google, won't you give me a PageRank quickly?
My friends all have Adsense, but you banned me.
Blogged hard all my lifetime, trying to make money,
So Google, won't you give me a PageRank quickly?

Have a great blogging day.

A New York Department Of Police


Okay and so it is not so often every so often that I find myself blah blogging about those New York Police Department officers to be found in that city of New York to be found in that country of North America here on planet earth who seemingly are more numerous on the streets of that town than the people themselves with no end in sight of a scene that wants to repeat itself over and over to where even though the names may change, the game wants to stay the same, I think. Or something like that. And so this is one of those times where I thought to blagh one of those YouTube videos to be found in that seemingly endless YouTubeland of endless videos that I came across in my internet travels as posted above that has me wanting to ask myself, so what's up with those NYPD Polizei? As this is one of those videos that seems to want to speak for itself. And what if anything does this have to do with a No Police State?
