The General Musings of Falkie2013 (George Senda, The Guy From Pittsburgh)

[Yorkshire pud]

Impressive George, didn't know you could time travel.   So who is the next President?

btw....   "grease" means to pay a small bribe, to get thinks done.  it's a take off of "grease the wheels" to make things go smoothly.

Really? Who knew?

[WhiteCrow]

Really? Who knew?

George didn't???

[Yorkshire pud]

George didn't???

Quelle surprise!!!!
Number 543 in the 'Common idiums that Senda hasn't a clue about'.

But what is funnier is that he has the brass neck to call me and others idiots, yet he hasn't a clue about most things.

You'll have to grease me to find out.

How the hell do you not know this?!  But Bill Gates offered you a job, huh?

There are a lot of thing I know because it's necessary for me to know them.
Putting quotes in a search box was not necessary.
And I had never seen anything on it before.
Furthermore, I unlike you, do know how not to be rude.
One has to be aware of how something fully works to fully utilize it.
I didn't.
I know how flying a 777 works in a general sense.
Could I actually fly one ?
No.
I used to be a mechanical assembler. 
I could tear down my  Imac and install my new blu ray drive and 2 TB ssd drive when I buy one eventually.
But it's easier to pay someone to put it in and have them do it.
Quit being an elitist prig.
Not everyone is going to know the same knowledge as the next person.
That's a fact.
And not something to criticize someone over.
I did have the expertise to do things on a computer.
And met Gates's requirements to do so at the time.
It would also have been a learning experience as well.
I'm not Sergey Brin or Larry Page.
I didn't have to know everything about Netscape or AOL or Compuserve, Genie or the other internet access providers or search engines back in the day to use them either.
A basic knowledge is all I need for now.
I do have books in here on how to use google.
But ... there's been no need to find out how they search or how they come up with the results.
Until now.
Ignorance of the totality of a subject does NOT equate to being stupid.
I don't fully know how my Imac works either.
But I learn something new every day in my readings and on websites.
I can use terminal, but I don't have to.
Did you know how to use a computer instantly unless you either observed how they worked or were taught ?
Unless you're intuitively brilliant, I doubt it.
Same goes for learning how to drive, operate heavy machinery, make bread or a trillion other things.
Life is a non stop learning process.
Sadly we're not given ENOUGH time to learn everything we'd like to learn in a lifetime.

Just in:

Germanwings airbus just crashed in the French Alps.
142 passengers, 2 pilots. 2 flight attendants.
No futher details yet.



I thought the book was well written, informative, a good read and detailed in its knowledge of the POSSIBLE reasons for why the plane disappeared.
One may disagree with their conclusions but they do go into great detail on it.
The review was not judging Noory, Belzer or Wayne as people.
It was whether or not it was worth reading.
I thought it was.
I've yet to obtain some of the other books on the subject but rest assured I will.
There are 16 books, one article and 1 ebook on the subject listed on Amazon.
It's not a damned technical paper, its a book designed to inform people.
If it had been a terrible book I would have downgraded it accordingly.
Others on Amazon also gave it 5 stars including this guy who has practical aviation experience.
I read the book. Twice.
Did you ?

"With irrefutable logic, the authors examine the possibilities and arrive at the conclusion that only one of three..."
By David R. Wayne on February 13, 2015
Format: Hardcover
The sister of the Pilot of Flight 370, Sakinab Shah, was very supportive and appreciative of this book -- And I think that says a lot.
And here's an early review, by Marine veteran and longtime investigator, Robert O'Dowd, that's very interesting, and which you can find at: [...]‘Wild Goose Chase’ for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?
Posted by Robert O'Dowd on February 11, 2015
The search for MH 370 in the southern Indian Ocean is a government sponsored 'wild goose chase'. A catastrophic event other than a crash into the southern Indian Ocean is the conclusion of Someone Is Hiding Something: What Happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight 370?

Bill Gates did offer him a job.  But it had nothing to do with computers or software.

Irrefutable logic what a joke... to prove beyond the shadow of a doubt, requires geometric logic

Falkie, Will Ferrell got 3.5 million views in less than a week dressing up like Little Debbie.  Why reinvent the wheel?  If it works for Ferrell maybe it will work for you?

Falkie, I haven't read the book so I really can't judge, though at first blush FIVE STARS did seem a bit much.  That's a PERFECT SCORE, isn't it?  I can see this book being a worthwhile read and vaguely interesting, but FIVE STARS would mean it's one of the best books you've ever read in your lifetime.  Is that the case?  If not, you should've given it more like FOUR stars.

I thought being a conservative is all about self reliance. Maybe if you're rich but when money's tight you fix stuff yourself.  How would an SSD or Blu ray help anything anyway? Your Imacs fine as it is. The production quality of your videos is the same today as it was 6 months ago. No new hardware will solve that

learn to budget your time. If you spent a night trading emails with Noory over the u7 debacle you can take 15minutes a day to play with Imovie. Find a beginners forum and ask specific questions or check your local library for classes. Many of them are desperate to get people in so they offer 1on1 computer tutoring. keep at it and don't give up at the first obstacle

He is fondling Noory's balls. I doubt that book deserves one star. Its just other people's theories being rewritten by Belzer. But Falkie also gave a 5 star rating to a boob mag, so I think its safe to say his rating scale is questionable.

Jorch has written more books than he has ever read.

Jorch has written more books than he has ever read.

I have an article on my Imac that was going to appear in UFO magazine.
One day I might write a book & it won't be ghost written.
Unless a ghost shows up to help out with the typing & layout.

In the meantime ...

My hard drive is full.
My cd drive will no longer read disks and it ejects them.
My Imac is slowing down because the drive is full.

Wow Falkie, fronda.pl are among the wackiest wackos around, I get that kind of laughs from them a few times a week. What a surprise that among all kinds of news from across Atlantic this little piece got your attention;)

Its quite interesting though, I have no idea how many stories that you report on in your informative and entertaining videos deserve exactly that reaction, yet you give them full seriousness...

Oh and your pronunciation of Polish surnames is as bad as it can get;)

Why don't you simply delete some crap from your drive? Or do you treat it like the "content" of your floor?

Why do you even need a CD drive in 2015?

Demonic Cheetos?  I wouldn't rule it out.  I once found a Cheeto that looked like Ted Cruz. 



And there's the crazy woman from Baltimore who munches on Cheetos all night listening to George Noory.



Maybe Noory will find out about these demonic Cheetos.  He could have someone ghost write another book for him to sell to his clueless listeners.

You mean it looks constipated?

Falkie, how was the prose itself.
We know Jorch is no stylist, but maybe his ghostwriter is.

[Open Lines Gerry]

I don't know what I just watched in that latest video.  Falkie was cracking himself up, but it was such an awkward delivery, none of the rest of us were laughing.  I like how he reverted to a very somber tone at the end after all of the frivolity.

[SnapT]

I think Falkie should review PRETTY WOMAN in honor of its 25th anniversary.

Wow - area51drone got a shout out from Falkie around the 3:04 mark of the demonic cheetos video.  I'm guessing you're his buddy?

200 PAGES OF FALKIE!

Looking forward the PRETTY WOMAN review.  I think it'll be a five-bagger!
