About Republicans: Dig Up Some Laws 02 28 2025

 I mean lets dig up some laws?

What laws could Democrats dig up?

What connotation does it have to it?  Dig up some laws?  The belief in the living dead?

Humor?:  "I dug up an antiquated and outdated law and it says your bad."  Isn't that the tone of immaturity that you hear too?

It's like evidence of complete frustration with living in our democracy.  Another word for it could be madness.

Pro Life Logic 02 28 2025

 So because one couple can't have children means that another woman unrelated to them is committing a crime if she has an abortion?

Because you can't have children means that a woman can't abort a pregnancy.

That has a element of privilege over rights.

A privilege to adopt versus a womans right to her own life.

And the rigged system therefore say's that the privilege is greater than the right?

That isn't the only instance whereby our laws have been contorted whereby the privilege is greater than the right.

Let's Blackmail Ukraine 02 28 2025

Let's Blackmail Ukraine

You know the issue isn't whether Trump gets along with Zelensky or not.

We won't help them unless they give us mineral rights in Ukraine? For Lithium? Which goes into electric car batteries. Not to mention that Trump doesn't want charging stations to be expanded? And he wants to not produce copper pennies either? Because demand for copper in electric motors, like cars is so great? Why do we need lithium or copper if we are not going to have electric cars? “Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we set to deceive?” Wall street likes deception. Then churn your money away from you based on it.

I don't feel that I owe Russia anything. They are a failed industrial economy.

But perhaps we should get something extremely important for any thin penny we ever give any foreign country? At the very least...and I know that you are going to hate this...

If we give any country even one red Lincoln cent all we have to ask for in return is that the people of their country have the EXACT SAME RIGHTS that we have in the United States!

Freedom of Speech

Freedom of Religion

The Right to Keep and Bear Arms

Sure we can turn the tables on how we interact with foreign nations. But to do it in the middle of a War?

Trump told Zelensky that he didn't have the cards to not be diplomatic with Russia. Really sad that neither Trump nor military man JD Vance don't know what freedom is really about; and why Zelensky is fighting for it.

I mean you cannot be a true Christian and not know that! Jesus spoke about peoples rights a lot didn't he! And basically, what he said was if you go that route a lot of you are going to face great hardship, but you will be redeemed by me. It has to do with human conscience. Neither Trump nor Vance know that you fight the good fight no matter what.

If we cut short help to Ukraine then Europe will have to help Ukraine. And that freedom is in Europe's prime interest. And then what coalesces against the United States?

We helped Russia tremendously in WW2 and they turned on us on a dime right after WW2. Did they ever pay us back? And did you ever ask yourself, how is a thug nation going to pay you back? What kind of gifts do you accept from a thug nation?

You know Trump wants to play hard ball with money? So do I! We cut off ALL money to foreign nations until they have exactly the same rights that we do here in the United States. That way we don't get anybody snarly coming after us. We don't get anybody shifty make odd deals.

What right does Putin have in Ukraine? None. What right did he have to invade it? None. Do we stand back as he invades nation after nation? What is his vision of the future? It doesn't include those rights above. It is more or less a failed industrial economy with alcoholism?

I think a lot of Russians in the United States talk like gangsters. And if you look at history. They were part of the effort to defeat our Constitution. They created so much crime here as they went against our Constitutions 18th Amendment that we had to abandon it. We don't owe them any subversive favors. Maybe Trump does that we don't know about; I would like someone to ask him that. But you can't ask him anything without him getting emotionally disturbed.

I mean why aren't we standing up to Putin? You have never seen Trump stand up to Putin? Is there something he likes about there country? That is where his wife came from. And there is something she didn't like about that Country or she would not have came to the United States? Has she made statements about how Russia could reform? I mean did you ever fight the good fight for the benefit of what might be future versions of yourself? Meaning people like you? Perhaps she has made that a foray of her first lady time, I don't know. Anything like that is and would always be put in little perspective with the guy who always wants the attention on himself?

Perhaps a teacher would tell you? About the person who always wants attention? Always wants the focus on them? Take the focus off of learning I want the focus on me? Take the focus of the real issues I want the focus on me? Take the focus off of ideas, ideas of freedom, I want the focus on me?

The point here is that by not helping Ukraine we are in fact helping the Russian Federation. I don't see any reason to. The Russian Federation? Perhaps it lends a light to what the true problem here is?

Just stand around outside the key waiting for the fireworks to go off when a three point shot is attempted; I don't see anyone going near the hoop for the rebound and easy put up shot.

Five Things you did Today 02 26 2025

 I think that this is a wonderful idea of Trumps.

It is so simple that who would refuse?  Someone who didn't have to go through rigorous hiring standards?

There are likely some people who won't answer that request to justify their employment?

Perhaps there are some that can't even write that are making a hundred thou a year.

Perhaps there are some whose writing you couldn't read if they wrote the answers.

Perhaps they can't their wife to answer it for them because they divorced her or she is too busy?

Perhaps they can't answer that question without lying and that would be on the hinge of criminality?

Perhaps what they are doing is illegal and hence they have to make something up.  And it will be investigated either way so their will be justice department action against them.

Perhaps they were only hired because their uncle worked there.  In which case it won't matter what they write, they are not going to be fired?  Come on I dare you!  Answer that DOGE request with, "My uncle hired me and there is nothing that you can do about it!"

And indeed, Trumpmusk, make that publicly available what their responses were!  And also those that refused to answer.  We could all use a good laugh at a time like this.

Wow!  What a great new product that Donald Trump could brand.  Trumpmusk Cologne for men.  "Guaranteed to make you a Billionaire."  Yeah, I loved those "Wacky Pack" cards and gum when I was a boy.  Don't see them today, but I don't hang around and toy stores for children either, as I am an adult.

And "Wacky Pack" is somebody else's trademark.  Somebody else owns it.  Did the product get "Catch and killed?"

MANS EMPOWERMENT OVER GOD 02 22 2025

In terms of independence of Government oversight vanishing right before your eyes.  In terms of hints of their will never be another democratic election in the United States? Your starting to understand, but you still don't get it.  The power of Kings is Divine Right.  And it is part of how Christianity is promoted.  The stuff that you hear in church, he suffered died and was buried.  He died for our sins. He was tortured and crucified by the Roman Emperor Structure who thought themselves to be Gods.  The condensate of all of that means only one thing, "Mans empowerment over God."  Mans empowerment over God is a pagan belief system.

© 2025 Thomas Paul Murphy

Where else in near recent history did we see a very odd declaration of mans empowerment over God?  It was when Marconi invented the radio?  Can a microwave electromagnetic frequency be modulated with a microphone to make valid normal legitimate human a beings hear jealous insults in their heads?  Without a doubt.  The microphone causing the emf projection to be modulated in terms of wave and frequency to exactly match a persons voice and also through algorithms any other persons voice pattern you want to sound like.  They could make you believe that your fire fighter son or police officer son who lost their life in the line of duty said a post humous message to you!

Instead of radio waves being modulated by a voice on the microphone, microwave waves, the stuff that cooks your hard boiled egg, being modulated on a microphone.  Likely also responsible for a decreased birthrate in the U.S.? (Not real hard to figure out is it.)

I can't find the quote where Marconi (?) stated he had harnessed the power of God, but it exists.

Sports Team Owners 02 21 2025

 If sports team owners were required to live in the state of the teams that they owned wouldn't it somehow be better for that state?

Somehow, wouldn't more money be kept in that state and be thought of as being used for the purposes of that state?

I mean that is a key Republican defense, "Let the States decide."  Essentially it advocates more power to the states?  That or it is a subversive attempt to undo our union and democracy by the, "they know not what they do?"

But it would mean more power to the state, wouldn't it?  How can you argue it wouldn't mean that?

Empowering States.

But the thing is that laws are expected to be Universal to the States unless there is something unique about a state.  And I wouldn't call birth rate a state problem it is a national leadership and allocation problem.  You don't want one state being the wild child in the wrong direction from the Constitutional values, that throws the other states and unions in disarray.

You know I had a childhood friend.  I won't tell you his religion.  But we got into an argument.  And perhaps we were in the second grade.  And his favored form of Government was Parliament.  And I was shocked.  A lot of things Republicans do seem to have that same shock value?  And I really don't think it is intentionally attempting to down our Democracy.  It is more or less like they just get some vibe and go with it and they really don't know where it comes from.  You know that really sums it up doesn't it?

And after the people who have made all the changes exit stage left or right we are back to being a colony of a dictator, monarch, self declared God, Slavery, etc, etc, poor, no freedom, no chance for betterment, denied education, denied books, denied tools only a highly paid blacksmith will have them.

But some of the things Trump does I like.  I really don't see how a structure of institutional based corruption benefits me.  And perhaps everyone who is being fired left and right is a good person for all i know.  Perhaps they are bad.

And are we going to get to the point whereby a Corporation being seen as a legal person, takes and initiates writs, etc, etc etc?  Kind of like how the Queen hired pirates and called them something else to make them seem legal?

What am I getting at?  Seeing through it?  What does it represent?

When you can't agree or don't want people to agree on matters that might benefit everyone it means you don't want to benefit the people of your country?  See how it is a disconnect?

It is like going to Rome and being swindled by Roman numerals?  Every state having a unique set of rules?  Best not go anywhere.  Best stay in one place and be tormented by the griffin on the wind vane?

"Let the States decide."  That is really deceitful isn't it!  It is filled with at least one hidden false premise?  That whatever issue there is a question on is to complex or difficult for one single leader to make a judgement on? When in reality it isn't like that to a rational mind.  And our Constitution wants there to be a Union of States, which means a unified legal system and not one that is by a divine right kingsman?

"Let the States decide because nobody knoeds the answer."

Off topic.  The Republicans don't like free renewable energy.  They like to own oil wells and pump it from the ground and charge us an arm and a leg.  And when you talk about how powerful solar energy is they will say that our grid can't handle it.  Well I have the perfect response to that!

What if gambling and prostitution in Las Vegas Nevada were made illegal and it was instead of...instead of such a bright city from all the neon lights...so bright that it can be seen/ discerned from outer space...

....which means what?  That there is a grid that can handle a lot of distribution of electricity for the benefit of what? Pagan profits?  It means such a grid exists already....but again...what if that city where turned off and more or less replaced with solar panels.

Instead of being a consuming vortex of electricity it becomes a power producing distribution center???

And indeed some ancient texts tell of a great war between the sons of light and the sons of darkness.  And that the sons of darkness won?  Sometimes I wonder if I am somehow lineage of a son of light?

I mean what is all that?  Let the states decide?  It is completely alienating, isn't it?  And the corporate structure that rewards the most god awful people around.  Again, completely alienating.

"Nobody knows the answer to that", is the implied false hidden premise in letting the States decide?

Kind of like a car recall?  "Nobody knew there was anything wrong with that car?" Oh wait this is more apropos, "Nobodies knew there was anything wrong with that car."  I could go a little further,  "When's we's sold em nobodies nude there was somtin wrong with em."

Chicken Soup 2 19 2025 Updated to include ingredients and recipe


Chicken Soup Recipe 02 19 2025

Ingredients:

1 large can of chunky chicken soup

4 Large Chicken Drumsticks

4 ounces orzo noodles

3 stalks celery

8 baby carrots

3 slices of bread

½ cup classic seasoned croutons

3 cans water

2 to 4 ounces lemon juice

pinch of wasabi

pinch of Chinese mustard powder

1 T sugar

pinch fenugreek

sprinkle rosemary seeds

pinch ginger

pinch turmeric

Sprinkle Cilantro

Get a large pot. Mine was about 10” in diameter and perhaps 8” high. You are going to cook everything in one pot so there is less to clean.

Partially thaw the four chicken drumsticks in the mwave. Then place them in the bottom of the pot on med to med high heat. As soon as they look like they are heated almost through remove them and fillet the meat off them as best you can. Chop it up to small pieces like you would expect to find in a bowl of chicken soup. Place that back in the pot. Add the lemon juice, sugar and oriental mustard seed. Let that cook for awhile. Now back to the chicken bones. Work on those a little more. Fillet off a little more. Then score them with a knife and break them in two places. Now I took a stainless steel wire. Same wire one might use to make a bucktail fishing lure out of; and I pushed as much of that bone marrow out of those bones into the soup as I could. Before you add that bone marrow add the can of soup and three cans of water. You want that bone marrow to have something to readily disperse into.

Toss the bones in the garbage.

Add the orzo noodles. Chop the carrots and celery and add that.

This is a good way to use drumsticks in cooking. Did you ever notice that the meat by the bone of a drumstick isn't usually fully cooked? This eliminates that. And that drumstick meat has a hearty flavor in it.

Add the remaining spices and let that soup cook good and hot. As always stir to keep the bottom of the pot from burning. When those small noodles look soft and expanded it is near done. The last thing you will add is the croutons and the slices of bread cut to 1/2” cubes.

And this was really good soup. I added some salt to my bowl of it.

I might have missed a spice or two I added. If I remember I will add it to the list. Ingredient amounts are guesstimates in hindsight. Use your own judgment for spices. Croutons always seem to have a basil and garlic flavor so that added to the flavor. Might be thick enough to call it a stew? There was some chicken skins on the drumsticks. I cut those up in the process and they went in too.

First Orzo Noodles I ever bought. They allowed the soup to be stirred better. And the ingredients therefore to impart flavor more readily.

Reminiscent of soul food or slightly reminiscent of sour rabbit.

Hits the spot on a cold freeze day!

I mean so good that you couldn't buy it anywhere!

I wasn't always a good cook.  I can remember my father scraping some stuff I made off the plate straight into the garbage in disgust.  And perhaps that is the best teacher?

I agree with Trump on not letting criminals into our nation 01 19 2025

In fact I think a lot of problems that we have today were caused by just that.  We were great humanitarians and allowed those being flushed out of a foreign country as that country was trying to eliminate organized crime...come here.

They organized out of necessity.  And then caused so much crime that it defeated our Constitution.  And that weakness is imbedded into our democracy to this day.

It hasn't worked out well for the good people of our nation.

To be able to hate people and make money at the same time 02 19 2025

 Those are two elements that seem to go together very well?  Hating people and making a lot of money at the same time.

So we know that alcohol causes cancer.

Now on some other types of products you might see a warning label or perhaps you have heard this phrase, "Our product is safe and effective when used as intended."

But with alcohol consumption is the intended use of it and it causes cancer.

So it is a product that can't be safely used as intended.

So that is a very good legal point to make isn't it?

So if you are selling a product and making a lot of money from it and it causes cancer.

How can it not be said that you hate people and make a lot of money at the same time?

Who should pay for the cancer treatments?

Should the taxpayer?

One citizen abhors alcohol and the birth defects it causes, the mental retardation and I will assert resultant acts of violence from that, no matter how veiled.

And another drinks to their hearts content.

There is a big difference between those two.  Why break the will of the first person by making them pay for the treatment of the second (as their annual contributions are so allocated.)

So where is the conscience of the manufacturer in this?

Apparently, it falls into the category of hating people and making a lot of money at the same time.  There is no conscience there.

Does person number one above care if the price of alcohol where to rise so that the manufacturers and producers could cover the costs of the cancer treatments needed from consumption of their product?  Why would he or she!  He would be delighted to see something so terrible come undone by itself in that manner!  And be forced out of business.

But you don't see lawsuits like that do you?  Because the lawyer covfefe in this country is of that same ilk, per the title of this article.  I mean you are not going to legally go after the only source of your happiness?  Alcohol.  If you don't have a soul you are not going to validate the cause of it and bring great attention to it?  There might not be honor among thieves but there can be great collusion among thieves.

And perhaps it amounts to this, a drug like that serves as a false reward system for what Jesus Christ labeled, "the money changers?"

I mean look at how that statement resonates throughout history?  Look at what it applies to as I uncovered in this article today?

What do I mean.  There is always someone that can't understand a word of what I mean.  A money changer being someone that converts human sickness that they are directly causing into money?

Change your human potential to work into sickness and make a great deal of money from it.  Those are not good people.

Not a big Bill Cosby fan but I always liked this quote 02 18 2025

"You know, I brought you in this world, and I can take you out. And it don't make no difference to me, I'll make another one look just like you."


Bill Cosby: Himself (1983) - Quotes - IMDb

Pro Life People 02 18 2025

There was no law that I know of that ever prevented qualified people from adopting.  And in the publicized commercial the person that wanted to adopt was able to do so, twice.  There was nothing that needed to be solidified concerning the point, when you got what you wanted?

Nor was there ever any law that I know of that ever prevented those who put their babies up for adoption from doing so.

So why ban abortion altogether?

There was nothing that prevented you from adopting.

And likely those who gave up their babies for adoption new that those babies were in good shape.  And perhaps those mothers that didn't knew their babies might be in bad shape?

I mean they are making a point that didn't really affect them or have anything to do with them.

If they want to adopt children they perhaps they should have a marketing campaign to that affect.  If you are a healthy non drug using woman who is considering having an abortion please don't, we implore you not to, their are loving parents who would love to raise those children.

Ban abortion?  And if there is a pregnancy complication the mother should die in favor of the baby?  That is a decision I don't believe you have the right to make.  A good educated moral mother versus a babies whose future is very uncertain in this world?  You believe in the idea so much so that the mother should die in that case?  I don't see how that is in any way fair.  As the saying goes, "where do you get off" legislating that?  

Are the Constitutional Rights of the mother no longer in effect once she becomes pregnant?

What a horrible way to think.  "Once you get pregnant your Constitutional Rights are no longer valid."

There isn't a court or Supreme Court in this nation that doesn't understand that point of law?

******'

And what was the crying cause of the couple's sterility in the first place?  Why not take political action against the cause of sterility?  Or was in caused by something common sensed that was ignored?

Mother Mary didn't give up her son did she?  Are we also lead to believe that she was all in line for him being nailed to the cross in a torturous death; somehow for us?  Why is it relevant?  It is highly relevant when Bible thumpers make it part of their church pulpit sermon.  When that money flows through the communities and political systems, it is very relevant.  Part of being a man and thinking like a man is the ability to know how a woman thinks?  How would Mother Mary think?  How would Mother Mary think seems to be a missing part of a group brain?

In a Republic 02 18 2025

When you can't answer the good questions, you cede authority to those who can?

Why?  Because you not being able to answer the good questions is highly indicative of you not being responsible enough to do the job or be a leader.

Now sometimes the good questions have to be answered with heart.  But again when you can't even answer them with heart you cede authority to those who can.

Here is what I consider a good question, "Why did you need to get that woman you are not married to pregnant?"

As a single mother she is going to be using the exact government resources you vowed with a cross across your heart to eliminate?

Prosperity 02 18 2025

So where do they get the notion that the country that produces the most babies wins?

It has to do with prosperity!

When the middle class experiences prosperity they have more children.

So they are trying to back end the phenomenon?  As if having more children will create prosperity?

Like how when you have more people playing at your golf course it is more profitable?

Like how when a factory is able to create more production it is a good thing?

The problem is that the conditions of prosperity need to be set first!  It doesn't work the other way around.  It works the wrong way the other way around.

Are the upper class more intelligent or pragmatic thinkers?  I don't believe it to be true.  And the lower class can't learn reading writing and arithmetic.  So it is the hard working middle class that benefits from prosperity and raises the other two classes out of mental stupor in the process.

But is it a specific demographic of that hard working middle class?  Perhaps the non alcoholic middle class?  And I don't believe that you can classify the lower or upper classes as being anything but that, the alcoholic classes?  And they might not even drink, but their lives and thought processes have already been ruined by it.

Shrimp Soup 02 14 2025 Updated to include Recipe and my instruction set



Recipe & Instructions 

I used:
1 Small Frozen bag of cooked shrimp, with tails
1 red and white labeled can of Cream of Shrimp Soup
Perhaps 20 ounces of Oat Milk

2 ends of bread chopped to 3/4" Cubs
1/2 a cup croutons from a bag
1/3 Yellow Onion Chopped fairly fine

Now I had leftover vegetables from Corned Beef and Cabbage I through in the soup.

1 1/2 chopped red cabbage
1/2 cup potatoes
1/4 cup carrots
1/2 t Rice Wine Vinegar.

Spices:
1/4 t celery seed
pinch of fenugreek
pinch of ginger
Pinch of rosemary
dash of Star Anise Powder

So here is the how of it.

The Instructions:

Get a larger sized sauce pot going on high heat on your stove with just enough water in it so that it will cover the shrimp when you add it.  Add a dash of salt in hopes it boils faster.  Get that water boiling.  Add the shrimp.  And heat it up until the water starts to boil again.  Some say that is 5 minutes.

Now you hold that sauce pot to the contour corner of your kitchen sink and drain off the water without letting any of the shrimp ski out of the pot.

Put the pot of shrimp back on the stove.  Add the contents of the soup can.  Add the Oat Milk.  Add the spices.  And I then got that boiling again.

You should all of your vegetables in a waiting bowl. And the bread and croutons too.  Add the rice wine vinegar to that and stir it up.  Then add that to the soup pot.  And you heat that up some more.

The onions will not be soft.

And this is really good soup.  The croutons I used were seasoned.  And the idea of adding pieces of bread to soup, chopped up, is something that is a new idea with me that is catching on with me.

Three Levels of Engineering 02 13 2025 updated

I might be able to think of more levels than this.  But this seems to cover the basis of the comparison.

1.  What are the best materials to use in terms of their properties to make a product.  And dependent upon processes, design and engineering the results are not guaranteed to be legitimate.

2. What we have available is this type of metal or material, how much of it do we need to use to make the product conform to required parameters and specifications.  And the results may or may not be legitimate.

3. We will use whatever metal we can find and put it in a mold exactly like the product we want to make.  And the results are often not legitimate. 

Added:

4.  We have this surplus or scrap available, what can we make out of it that conforms to number one above.  What would this material be best used for?  What is this material often sought for the best use of it?  And probably this more or less amounts to, who can we market this to?  And the results are often not legitimate.

5. And perhaps this, for that subsystem or component, all we can afford to spend is this "" amount of money.

6.  And don't forget this one; "Who can we hire to figure this all out for us."  Probably the saddest of all?

7. And maybe this, "Just send the product manufacturing ticket to our China partner."

8.  And in all of this where is, "Did we ask the customer?"  "What feedback have we from our customers on how to make this product better?" Perhaps if your customer is in a supply chain they just want it cheaper?  Which means, your customer really isn't the end use customer, hence there is a disassociation.  And doesn't that word, "disassociation" describe a lot of what is wrong with our country today?

Something to think about when you buy something.

Good Guy Bad Guy Humor 2 12 2025

 Just noticed that on an old popular sitcom.

The bad guy talks loudly and gets your blood pressure up baiting the good guy to say the punchline.

The bad guy talks nonsense and nervous and again the good guy delivers the punchline.

You either laugh or you are left with the anxiety of the bad guy.

Trump Humor 2 12 2025

So Elon Musk spoke with his young son in the oval office while Trump sat at his desk.  Trump looked at his son like he wanted to say something to him.

"Donald what did you want to say to Elon's son?"

You had to see it.  I think that the child told a room full of reporters to shut up or something like that.

Religion & the Mystery of Faith 1 08 2025

 If you are going to come back in honor and glory to separate the living from the dead and have a Kingdom without end it means that to our really didn't die in finality to absolve humanity of it's sins.

And indeed if the good and faithful of you (Jesus Christ) go to heaven there is absolutely no reason for you to come back.  In other words if we meet you in heaven upon our death why do you need to come back?  Heaven is the meeting place not the coming "back" as the meeting place.

And if you study and believe in Jesus Christ you realize that he was betrayed more than once.  He said the scribes preached religion but didn't believe in it or act the part.

To believe in Christ you have to act the part.  You can't have a disassociated belief system; act the part of Satan in life and say you believe in Christ.  Why, again?  Were you listening?  That is what Jesus Christ condemned the Scribes for.

Jesus Christ believed in feeding the children and poor?  Not everyone who gets a religious education views it from the point of view of the good.  Some people see it in different terms?  Terms of the religion be being something that they own!

*****'

If you thought that you owned the life of Jesus Christ and you crucified him.  What would you write (of the scribe) in the history books about it?

Why does a good person do good things?  Because it would be hard to live with themselves if they stood by and watched bad things happen when they could step in?  

A bad person does bad things because they don't have a soul?  Because that is how they make their money?  Perhaps you give them a set of instructions and they can't follow it?  It's disturbing to them?  Demeaning to there sense of blissful soullessness? Perhaps they find weakness in people being good?  How else is could they view that and be consistent with what they are?

Super Bowl Prediction 2025

 There are many different ways that this game could go.

However, Patrick Mahomes can make that 100 yard field look like it is only 35 yards long.  I have seen it happen too many times in a fourth quarter.  What were hard yards to come by early in game come quickly for them.

So I think the Chiefs will win.  I was thinking by 14 to 18 points.

Not that I really want them to win.  When a team has too much hoopla I tend to want to see another team win.

It may not be that way.  There could be interceptions, injuries, controversial calls, shut downs on offense or defense.  Lead changes.  Running backs hard to beat.  Some hail Marys.  Some kickoffs perhaps punts, returned for touchdowns.  Blocked field goals.  Fumbles.  Extensive time outs for injuries.  Trick plays not seen in many moon.  You could see a break away running back with lateral movement and speed.

And another thing, a game where there are a lot of penalties called starts to take in a different tone.

And I don't want to see the stadium smoked up from the half time show.  Really?  You really want to do that to an athletes lungs/respiratory system in a championship game?

I have to highly praise Donald Trump for what I just heard him say 02 08 2025

He said that the FBI and IRS had been wrongly attacking Christians for far too long!

Wow!  That is beautiful and true!

And I presume he means Catholics too when he say's Christians.  That is how I have seen Christians defined.  Even though I think some of that Martin Luther stuff is contradictory to what Christ message was and what he taught.  And I believe that belief system has encroached itself unto the Catholic Faith.

But like I said, some things Trump is doing I really like!

Eliminating Government waste?  I agree with it.  I applied to a gov position once and it seemed to me like how they made the hirings wasn't based on what it should be?  More of a whose mom or pop the person hiring knew?  And I can see how it is layered into the gov too.

And I initially was shocked about hearing they wanted to cut consumer protection bureau?  But you know what, does it help?  Did they ever help draft or create meaningful legislation?  Did anyone really get reimbursed to the level they should have? 

You know I believe that Gov money gets into some kind of recycling function, without wanting to articulate it better than that.

I think 1.  Trump see's it too.  2.  He knows it is wrong.  3.  He wants to do something to correct it.

May God Bless Donald Trump

And if every next day I take very serious issue with something initiated by him, and write it here, so be it.

Tacos 2 8 2025 Hard Recipe Included

Somebody really liked these Tacos so I am giving you tonight's recipe!

Started thawing 1 pound ground beef in microwave.  Don't go to long or you ruin it.  Go just long enough so that there is still some cold in the center.  Then move it around with your hands and thaw it just a little more.

In a ten inch skillet with a little avocado oil in in place 1/2 a finely chopped up green pepper in and start stir frying.  While in the middle of that open a can of black olives and chop them up and add them to that pan.  Stir fry a little and put that mix in a waiting bowl.

Now we are going to make a synthesize sour cream sauce.  Add some oat milk to that bottom of that 10 inch skillet. Probably 1/4 inch high in pan.  Now coat the surface of that with some barely flour.   Probably 1/2 a cup.  Now add some of that Mexican cheese like you did the flour but not as much.  Then  sprinkle some cilantro in there.  Now stir that on heat until it gets sauce like.  You may have to add water as I did.  You hold it under the 1/4 stream filtered water faucet and add it directly.

Now you add that to a waiting cup.

Now put your ground beef in the pan and start browning it.  When it looks done you add water to the pan and drain off the grease.  Now open a 12 ounce can of tomato paste and stir in with a fork about 3/4 a t of Taco Spices from one of those 4"x4" by perhaps 1/4" taco seasoning packets from the grocery store shelf.  I spooned a little of that and as you know tomato paste is sour, so I added perhaps 1/4 cup of brown sugar.  And then a little water too.

Chop up about 1/2 a head of lettuce and place in white vinegar water to "wash" it.

 Mix that with waiting bowl one. And add chopped roma tomato.

Okay that is it!  Add meat mix to bottom of taco.  Then add white sauce, then add lettuce and serve.

Now I will pull all of those ingredients out of the recipe and list them for you.

Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 12 ounce can of tomato paste
1/4 cup of brown sugar
1/2 green pepper
1 roma tomato chopped up
3/4 t Cilantro
3/8 cup Mexican cheese Cotija?
1/4 cup barley flour
1/4 cup avocado oil
1 can black olives
1/2 cup oat milk

And the ingredient amounts are kind of feel your way while adding them and then attempting to accurately reflect on what you did.

Enjoy

 © 2025 Thomas Paul Murphy

Notes: I have not made sloppy joes by using a can of plain tomato paste and other spices, in a long time if not never, but with a can of tomato paste and a pound of ground beef you are pretty close to that.  It is worthy of looking up a recipe and trying or experimenting.  Would it be cheaper?  If you used fresh chopped onions, it might be better?

Pot Luck Coffee and Geometry 02 08 2025

Pot Luck Coffee and Geometry 02 08 2025


(Disclaimer, this is meant for entertainment purposes only. Unless a relevant true nre point is made then it can be attributed to me.)




So I get to the dregs of a small bag of coffee and I have already bought a new small bag of coffee before I finish that first bag. And I looked in my freezer and saw about half a dozen to a dozen bags of nearly empty coffee. And I put them in that metal bowl. Now because of my artistic license I can say that that metal bowel is like a cylinder with the following dimensions; diameter 8.5” and height of coffee in it being 3” and with those numbers I should get a fairly good idea of the volume of that coffee. But will it fit into the white jar that has the dimensions in terms of what I think it can hold in terms of volume as being 5.5” diameter and 7” high. You see I am accounting for those rounded bases with a sort of synthesis factor into the analysis. And I think some of you want to say already, just by looking at those numbers that of course the coffee will all fit in the white jug. But you have to realize before I start pouring tha tcoffee in there I want to make sure it will hold it all because I don't want any overflow mess to clean up. Not that I care about if I have to throw out a half a cup of coffee grounds if it overfills it. No, I just don't want to have to clean up any mess of that. Perhaps that is something that those who believe themselves to be the greatest chemists in the world might have a hard time understanding; the mess you made.

******'

So the volume of the metal would be and the volume of the white plastic would be....if my formula is right. And I will look it up and others in a moment.

52.9375 cubic inches white plastic

54.1875 cubic inches metal


Now I would express those in formulas with proper variables right here but there is somebody who is a billionaire that shouldn't be in terms of software innovation. So I have to digress to make a point.


******'


You know who shouldn't be a billionaire? In an office software program I should be able to seemlessly write an equation into a word processing document and have it show up like that right there and be highly functioning. That would indeed spur engineering in the good old USA. That is something that would truly make America great. In summary the spreadsheet and the word processor should have been seamlessly integrated by now.


******'


And so per my scientific calculations I have 1.25 cubic inches excess coffee that will not fit in the plastic. But it is okay as I will be transferring the coffee over the sink or garbage can or perhaps my garden.


******'


So you know how to calculate the volume of a box. That is really easy. It is the area of the base times the height.


But what about a cylinder? That would be the area of the circle base times the height. Again fairly easy. But is that how you remember it being taught?


Now what about a cone? Is there an easy way to just verbally express what the area or volume of a cone is? The cone is 1/3 of what it would be if it were a cylinder as per my calculations depict above. So lets say that a soda can has the same height as an Ice Cream waffle part. And that the top of the waffle part of the cone is the same diameter as the diameter of the soda can. Then it is simple to remember that the cone of those dimensions has 1/3 the volume of that can. Seems like you got cheated on ice cream doesn't it.


Then what about a sphere? What is the volume of a sphere? Have you ever heard, in your entire life, someone simply express the formula of what the area of a sphere is?

Well here is the formula: V = (4/3)πr3


But how can that simply be expressed? How does that make sense? And why? Because the volume area of a circle is πr^2 So lets say that is really πrr that is really that is really then you are taking into the height of the circle with πr3 as really being πrrr and then you have to give that a magnifiying power of 4/3 which is really 1 1/3 magnifiying power. But why? Why that amount? What makes sense as it being that amount? 1 1/3*pie rrr and in this case does the order of operations make a difference? I don't have time to fact check it. But basically you are squaring something that is sort of constant, so perhaps it doesn't? So lets try and jimmy this a bit.


My pie r^2 is the area of a circle. You multiply that by the radius again and you get half the height of the sphere. Essentially the radius is half the height of the sphere. So that would be the area of a cylinder with the height of the cylinder equal to the radius of the cylinder. Could be verbally thought of as a cylinder area applied using square box type dimensions. Although not completely accurate per an argumentative type?


But what if you plugged into the calculation the diameter of the cylinder thinking you could calculate the area of a sphere like that? Because the diameter is the height of the sphere? You would have too much wouldn't you. You would be off by too much by what you would have to trim away from a metaphorical block of foam or marble in the shape of such a cylinder to make it the most voluminous sphere possible.


I think that perhaps the explanation needs to be figured out by figuring out what the area of half a sphere is first. Call it a dome and then adding that together with itself.


But lets attempt to make sense of that formula for the volume of a sphere without looking up the answer as to why it is right first. Seeing as my metal bowl is more like a dome that a cylinder, but we won't need make mention of that. Because I feel confident in my analysis above.


That formula isn't cubing the radius, it is multiplying it by three. But why? What area does that represent. Now first lets run some numbers as to the difference of a radius squared and a radius mulitplied by three in the area calculation.


    1. is the radius of my metal bowl 2.75 is the radius of my plastic jug.


    1. *4.25 Verus 4.25 *3


2.75*2.75 versus 2.75 x 3



4.25x4.25=18.0625 4.25x3=12.75



2.75x2.75=7.5625 2.75x3=8.25


Important to note that sphere formula is not squared or cubed it is multiply radius by three. Another way to read that might be 1.5 the diameter. So the formula is really 1 1/3 x pie x d x 1.5

But why?

I think I am going to have to figure out and demonstrate the area of a dome first? In order to understand this? The only reason I know this is because I look at picture related to the sphere formula first. Just to let you know.


UGG, no no. That formula was not accurately depicted online! Someone made a mistake!!!!!! Not me! It is the radius cubed!!!!! It is really this 4/3 x pie x r^3


Okay back on track. And I am going to line through some of the above so you don't have to learn it the wrong way the way the internet would have fooled you up good!! Fooled and flunked by the internet. And what is AI to me? Another way to squeeze the money out of the American people when the form of government you always really loved is called parliament. Where a blusterous idiot can run off at the mouth with reckless abandon.


*****'

I got to stop. This is so disturbing that that formula was listed incorrectly on the internet. Gd flat earther Luddites. They will have you listening to a clown instead of a teacher because that is the only thing that makes you happy.


*****'

V = (4/3)πr^3


So you cube the radius. A way to think about that is in three dimensions right? Pie times the radius at the x, y and z dimensions of the sphere? Sounds like it should somehow get you into range right? But what if it were a square? And you took half the side of a square/box and cubed it? And then compared that to what you get from the true formula?


To take things out of context here. If pie r^2 is the area of a circle. Then what is pie x r^3 the area of? It is not the area of a sphere with that radius. It is the area of a smaller sphere of that radius, hence the multiplication factor of 1 1/3 is needed?


What I am getting at is why isn't there a simpler formula? There has to be a simpler constant based formula?


But let's run the numbers on it. Using the height of my metal bowl as the radius and not the diameter.


The height of my metal bowl is 3” So the area of a sphere with that as the radius would be: 1 1 1/3 x pie x 9=


But pie x r^3 is the area of what? Pie x 9=


I don't like those numbers. Lets use something a little more far out. We will use arbitraily use 5.5.


1 1/3 x pie x 166.375=


versus


pie x 30.25=

With diameter applied


Wait a minute lets forget about pie altogether. What is the relationship between the vlume of a cube to the volume of a sphere. Is it a constant? I think it has to be. I would have to run the numbers. But if you were to figure that out. You could likely simplify the equation? But could it be simplified with more accuracy? Very interesting point.


*****'

The good versus the criminal bad. The good like what you know the criminal minded absolutely hate it when you know what you know! And it has profound implications for our education system and the greatness of our democracy. Remember it. It is really easy to spot. The bad hate it when you know what you know and that you know what you know!


******'

So lets run the numbers Square versus Sphere volume and see what the constant is.

Arbitrarily using diameter as 5.5 and side of square as 5.5


Square volume equals 5.5^3=166.375

Sphere volume equals 1 1/3 x pie x (.5x5.5)^3=87.0973125


So the constant would be (if it can be a constant) 87.0973125/166.375=.5235


Expressed as the area of a sphere is equal to .5235 the area of a square with the diameter of the sphere being equal to that of the side of a square. So it has a lot of implications with regard to missing matter in space or dark matter? You don't quite loose half your volume. But then what is the relationship of what the missing or clipped volume of the square to get to the volume of the sphere is?


Follow me on this one? That missing volume equates to the diameter of what sized sphere in terms of the sphere in question? How much of a sphere is made up by the missing volume of a square to a sphere? And what is the constant of such a comparison of spheres?


Do you see why a spreadsheet needs to be seamlessly incorporated into a word writing text type document?'


Vol sphere one minus vol sphere two divided by vol sphere one is the constant I am looking at.


(VS1-VS2)/VS1= equals such constant if there is such a constant.


(166.375- 87.0973125)/166.375= .4765


But what about real world math of it. Our planet isn't a perfect sphere is it. Are all celestial bodies that same way, essentially oblate spheroids? What about the sun? The sun has to be a sphere or is it?


What am I getting at? The math of God? Is the math of God such that the area of an oblate spheroid inside a box of its sides is more 50/50 than the fraction above? More equal?


So gravitational forces distort a sphere to be an oblate spheroid. And gravitational forces are determined by mass composition? Or Substance? Does a heavier substance equate to more of or less of a sphere or oblate spheroid as it is? Is it just the property of mass of the atomic composition or can it be thought of as other terms of composition of mass such as malleability and tensile strength that also could play a role into the distortion of sphere to oblate spheroid? And does it have relevance in astrophysics?


Somebody already figured this out already just like the posted the wrong formula for the volume of a sphere?


*****'

Note, needed “Equation recognition in a word or text writing document.”

Oh but we would need more computing power.” And there is another problem. We are not really getting more computer power for our dollars versus 5 years ago? Where is that power sucked up into? Virus detection? Do we really have better file management software on operating systems today? No. Do we have better search engines on web browsers no, they are worse. They have been bought out. What do we need AI for; everything is already gone. I don't need AI to figure that out for me. I don't need AI to figure out what is wrong with our country either, I already know.


*****'


I got to stop. I can't error check this or continue with it. That spoiled horses head voice is having a fit. Ever hear the threat by organized crime? “You are going to get a horses head in your bed?” It really is a metaphor that they are going to give you schizophrenia with a retard mysteriously insulting you.

Math.net got the formula wrong?

the volume of a sphere - Search

Whose new math is that?  Per my education it isn't written at r3 it is written as r^3

Look, see for yourself, it is wrong!



You it is a real shame that my article was sidetracked by this.
