Electricity

The new standard in lighting for home and some industry seems to be Energy Star light bulbs/fluorescent tubes; that seem about right? 75% less heat than your run-of-the-mill incandescent bulb, they seem to save money from what I've heard -- that, I imagine is a true statement. They are said to last longer.

Some are swirly, pretzel-curved, spiral tubes emitting less energy, but yet the same, even greater brightness to light a room; others are a collection of smaller LED lights that still conserve and get the job done.

My question from these seemingly pointless statements is, when does it get to the point when electric companies aren't pulling in the same profits for their services they used to and decide, hey, you're not using as much energy, electricity to light your homes, it's about time for a rate hike. The big thing anymore for the auto industry, and most notably because President Obama has asked and campaigned for this, is to make automobiles more fuel economical, as well as pushing for more electric vehicles. All to quell our dependency on gasoline. But doesn't it seem right that the same greedy lusting for oil will spill into a renewed dependency for electricity?

My chair is uncomfortable. Computer, and those desk-chairs from my high school seem to always be ungodly strenuous on my back.

Wind-power, solar energy reserves, dams -- all clean resources of electricity that happen to be our best answers for gathering and storing the needed electrical cells to power our everyday lives. Yuck! Sounds sappy. Sounds a bit too convenient. Sounds like bullshit; of course it's just that easy. You take those recharging stations for instance.

We open on a mall parking structure, reconfigured to house recharge stations for every parking spot in that whole stinkin' complex. The accidental deaths from electric shock continue to rise; wrong -- you go in to the mall, do some shopping for the afternoon, fill up on electricity, you telling me that's free? What, you feed it like a meter? Maybe you have an electricity card only good for charging your energy cell consumption. I don't know, it already begins to sound like more of this, we're expanding the power-grid in urban areas, we have to make up that cost somehow, why not hike up the cost of electricity?

I wrote this blog post late last year and never published it. Just sat here in my iron maiden of a computer chair and read over what little I had of this post over and over again. A black guy came in to work to do who the fuck cares -- A black guy oooooooo, sarcastically -- and him and his friend sat and talked the whole time, subject matter mostly consisting of, "God I miss my girl, she's not in town, I don't know when I'll see her. She's cool. I mean, she fucks good. Sucks my dick." Tell the world! And why couldn't you just say I'm falling in love with my woman-friend? Nope, she's only good for two things; a good fuck every once and awhile, and sucking my smelly cock. They don't engage in sex, it sounds more like they like to play rape. Whenever he feels like it, he sneaks up behind her, force-ably pulls her pants along with her panties down and goes right into full-on intercourse. He's gotta show-off. He can't admit tender feelings for her, just the inappropriate fucking they probably haven't engaged in because she's more than likely some "tramp" he's stalking online through myYearbook.

The stock market will never be fixed. Our need for oil won't be quelled, more like hunger; our human hearts never full. Get over fixing it. Gingrich claims he'll drop the price of oil. So did Barack, and the price did remain pretty low there the first 2-3 years of his term, and now that's back up. Santorum and Romney want to push the abortion issue. We've seen this before in the form of same-sex marriage, trying to get our government to oversee and control a private matter. So you love a guy and you're a guy, so you're a woman in love with a woman, let that be your choice. Abortion is your choice. You start down this fucking path where the government is telling you what to do, let's think of it like this. Your religious right should be government regulated. No more choice in the matter, you're now a Christian. Any practicing Muslims for example, will have their mosque raided, their practitioners arrested and charged for disobeying the law. You might as well, right, I mean, they control who you marry, and succeeding in your right to terminate your own pregnancy, let's take more of your liberties away.

You have no right to murder an individual... nope, nope, just stop right there. That's an issue where you consider the advancement of science and more importantly civilization where it's become more difficult to hide a body or get away with the vary act of murder. Science can already narrow down the culprit, and then that's if the person committing the murder hasn't thought of all the variables for a perfect murder. Just because the Bible says thou shall not kill, and our laws forbid it, doesn't mean those two things stop murder. It's not right, but it happens. It's all whether you choose to do so. Choice. And that's the word.
