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

[SredniVashtar]

We have to compete with China's low labor costs.
Would you rather have our workers not have their entry level jobs and receive government 'welfare' benefits instead?

That argument has been going on for at least as long as the Industrial Revolution and is used to justify almost anything that an unscrupulous employer wants to do (present company excepted, I'm sure) to improve his profit margins at the expense of the employees. If you are using China as your yardstick then it is just a race to the bottom that you will never win. In the end, they will always be meaner and more inhumane.

I think I know that chick.

She's on SNL.

Well, cities here are raising their wages. Oakland raisded its minimum wage to 12.50 an hour recently, if memory serves.
China may have to raise the working conditions for its workers.

Now working on the living room.
Hot as hades in here. Have got a lot done and threw out a bunch of stuff.
Have to take breaks as I am soaked in sweat.
Got all the laundry in the living room folded, everything is off the living room floor up to the tv and the kitchen.
Next I straighten out the bookshelves so Patty can dust them when she comes in.

Breaking NEWS :

Gunmen open fire on Dallas police outside headquarters

Authorities say multiple suspects using automatic weapons opened fire on police officers outside Dallas Police headquarters, before one man fled the scene in what witnesses say was an armored van.

However, the chances that even with my experience I could chase somebody for 5 blocks over sidewalks and roadways and end up gently pinning them against a wall without
1. hitting other pedestrians
2. hitting other vehicles.
3. breaking his kneecaps with my bumper
are roughly 0%

For me to believe you did this in grade 7 takes real imagination.  Also, by the year it would have occurred, I assume it was a standard transmission.  My goodness, what control you must have had to get a few pounds of pressure on his legs by riding the clutch "just right" to pin him against the wall (and how stupid he must have been to just stand there while you did this.)

Sorry, on this one, I am going to have to say that some of the 900 movies you watched affected your memory...

I think reading the Falkie thread has affected my memory because as I recall from many, many pages back Falkie said that it was Kathy that had taught him how to drive, when he was in his twenties.

Yes, he did say that (as well as saying she was an excellent driver); and a few pages back he followed it up by saying she's the worst driver in the world, because she curbed the wheels turning around in the road.


However, apart from being deluded, Senda is a mendacious twat who hasn't a clue when he's said what to whom.

No, she taught me how to drive when I lived in Sacramento around 1984. I was 32 back then.
A local news channel has expressed interest in my tale of possibly being evicted because I read and have " too many " books.

Oh, the school bus vans at the Barrie school had AUTOMATIC transmissions. I could not have driven it if it had a stick. And the chase happened very early on a saturday morning.

It doesn't take that much skill to learn how to park a car and maneuver it in and out of a parking space. Driving is just a step up and I learned quickly from Kathy.
She had also given me lessons in her Cougar back in the 1970's where we found out a cat CAN squeeze himself completely into a glove compartment.

Along the lines of:

"Goddamit, I know who you are!!! I'm George Senda, you probably know me better as the Guy from Pittsburgh; with a TM at the end"

"So, you're a Mr Senda Pittsburg Tee Emm?" (Wrting this down on his pad)

"What? Noooo, My name is...oh never mind. Look, my girlfriend is being evicted from her lice and flea ridden hovel, and I too am possibly being thrown out of my apartment because I've made it a firerisk, according to the idiotic gestapo landlord inspector, I was think...."

"Wait one sir, did you say your fleas are being evicted from your fire risked ap..."

"Oh Jesus, Nooooooooooooooo!!!! Look, I'm broke and I need money, so can you do a story about my predicament?"

"What about your girlfriend?"

"Screw my girlfriend"

"I'm sorry sir, we're not that sort of news station, we have a family audience, and I'm sure the producers wouldn't, allow it. I'm sorry you wasted your time sir, I wish...."

"Nooo, don't hang up, wait...you misunderstand; Okay, from the beginning.  My name is George Senda, I'm a Youtube star, I've interviewed George Noory"

"Who?"

"George Noory, but that's not important. Look, I'm going to be thrown out of my apartment and I need my story highlighted to get funding to get Patty to clean it"

"Ahh I see, Patty is your girlfriend?"

"Noooo, Kathy is my girlfriend"

"Hey, way to go man!! Does Kathy know about Patty, You know, I'm a free thinking sorta man I can ..."

"Now you just wait on buddy!! Patty is simply helping me clear my apartment. Kathy is my girlfriend, and Patty is her friend"

"Really? You're into that kinky stuff? The French have a name for it, ménages à trois; C'mon sir, what's it like?"

"What? Noooo... You misunderstand. Patty is cleaning my shelves, and..."

"Oh, I've heard it called some stuff before, but 'Cleaning my shelves' is a new one on me, what's involved?"

"Look; Can you come and film me?"

"I told you sir, we don't do that sort of thing, I'm sorry I have to hang up, good day to you sir, George Pitsburg TM or whatever you call yourself, Bye sir"..Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

To himself: "Wow, I hope they get here soon.

What? The worst driver in the world? She taught you? You say it's a 'step up' because you can't fucking drive. A bit like me saying flying a jet fighter is piss easy when I've sat in a cockpit.

[paladin1991]

When I post in oneofthe other threads like the Art Bell thread as an example, one of the asswipe haters from here like Palm-O-Poop tells me to shut up, that no one wants to read my posts and that i don't belong there, so I don't anymore and gave up.

Oh, not so, lying sack of shit.  I merely advise you to return to 'your' thread and leave the AB thread to the big people.  You know, the people with full cognitive skills.

[paladin1991]

i NEVER lie about anthing that I have done or has happened to me as I have said multiple times.
Go look at the AMC Cinema on Van Ness Avenue and look straight up about 3 stories.
You'll see the Cadillac symbol.
It used to be Kohlenberg Cadillac and is one of 3 places I washed and cleaned cars as a kid.
When we came to San Francisco the big discussion of the salesmen at the time was going to see Carol Doda and Yvonne D'Angers and Kaye Spiegelman, topless Mother of 8.Years later as an adult, my friend Glenn and I, depending on who was working that night, would deliver the early edition of the SF Chronicle and we both saw her panic the night the lowering piano she sat on malfunctioned and she almost got squashed between the piano and the ceiling as it was rising to return her to her dressing room.
We both knew the Rosenbergs as well and Davey the son became the pubicity manager for the Condor night club where Carol appeared.
All are gone now except for Carol who runs a lingerie store on Union Street.

You knew the Rosenbergs?  Julius and Ethel?  Shit, man, that makes you nearly famous, you should do a video.

[Who]

A local news channel has expressed interest in my tale of possibly being evicted because I read and have " too many " books.

So telling the world the minutiae of your life on the internet wasn't good enough for you.  Now you're planning to do it on local TV as well?
Have you no shame?  Wait.  Why am I asking?  Of course you don't. 

Wait until the reporter sees your "book" collection.  He or she will probably be expecting titles by James Joyce, Henry James, D.H. Lawrence, William Shakespeare, William Butler Yeats, George Orwell and Ernest Hemingway.  Instead they'll see the complete works of George Noory and Richard C. Hoagland.

82 and all that sweat? Nice....You just need Kathy to add to the ambiance.

And don't forget Patty and her man hands. 

[paladin1991]

Your mom?

[paladin1991]

Gee whiz, if you live that long you can sponge off their sweat to even greater financial success.

[paladin1991]

It doesn't take that much skill to learn how to park a car and maneuver it in and out  of a parking space, otherwise how would an idiot like me learn? Driving is just a step up and I learned quickly life lessons from Kathy.
She had also given me lessons  life lessons in the back seat of her Cougar back in the 1970's where we found out a cat CAN  squeeze be squeezed himself completely into a glove compartment if you squash them first with the fumbling in the backseat of the Cougar learning life lessons while her husband is at work.

She had also given me lessons in her Cougar back in the 1970's where we found out a cat CAN squeeze himself completely into a glove compartment.

Wow!  It must have really smelled when you found it.

[Falkie2013]

Wow!  It must have really smelled when you found it.

Snookie was quite alive in there. We were in the car with him and he got scared, climbed under the dash and somehow wiggled himself in there. He peed all over himself and we opened the door of the glovebox and say his head sticking out and he was meowing very indignantly.
It ook awhile for us to get him out of there and to clean the urine mess out of the glove box as well.
I hadn't thought a full grown male cat could wedge himself into a space smaller than a shoe box but he did it.
He was the only kitten from my mama cat Squirt Squirt ( she was a very tiny long haired Siamese thus the name. I did not name her but it fit. ).
Born in my arms at 5:30 am on my birthday and died of cancer at 18 years and 2 months. I miss him a lot.

[PB the Deplorable]

I offered to forgive my last loan of $80.00 to the Big Guy if he'd give me instead, Paper Boy's autographed cartoon of Dave and Tommy. He turned me down and repaid the loan as agreed.

What am I bid for it?

[Falkie2013]

Sir, I'm humbled by your marketing skills.

Falkie, please let me know Kathy's neck size, color of collar leather and favorite semi-precious stones.
And if she want spikes or any other special features.

After all this moving and cleaning crap is over, I will get her neck size.
Patty was at Kathy's until 12:30 am & made Kathy get off her ass and clean, pack and throw crap out and moved all but one bookcase into the living room from the back bedroom. Several tall bookcase will go in here so I can get rid of the small ones and the ones that have broken shelves.
Both of us are pissed at Kathy that she fuckjed around for 2 months and did akmost nothing and now we have to go over there and help her out.
Patty is going be over here but she overslept and is exhausted from all the running back and forth.
I stayed up until 4 am cleaning up until my legs could not take it and I moved the turkey pan on the cutting board ( it needs more cleaning with oven cleaner ) and broke my big red Borders coffee cup, which I cherished, damn it .

I also have another problem involving my phone and the cops but I will deal with that in time.

Probably no Shell event as I don't know when Patty will get here, then we need to go to Kathy's and move her stupid sofa bed and Wednesday rent a truck and haul everything out of there.

OK. White Crow has asked me to request him openly for a loan. i would like to borrow $ 250 so I could get a storage space when Kathy gets her stuff up to hers, wash all the piled up laundry, move excess boxes of stuff out of here as well. Since Kathy is moving her stuff with a truck to Sacramento on Wednesday, I could put my small amount of stuff in my own seperate storage. I need part of the money to get laundry money and get food as I will be out of food by next week and with Kathy's problem, she has no time to take me to our usual places to get food. I gave her $140 this month plus insurance and storage money and it left mme broke.
I would like to pay it back over 90 days if possible because paying it back all at once would leave me broke again.
I would make the first payment on the 2nd of July and would make succesive payments on that date.
I've already discussed this with privately but need the funds asap and about $ 75-100 would be for the storage and gas to Sacramento and something to pay Patty for helping me get the stuff in and out of here, if she's not too worn out to do so.
I would need him to mail me the money as Paypal takes too long to transfer it to me and I need this stuff out asap.
I have nothing left for collateral as I hocked stuff to get money for the Noory event and to give Kathy gas money to help her find a place to live.
The clock is ticking and I really need to talk to WC on the phone about this.
Once Kathy vacates her apartment she will have time to help me in here as well.
Patty is clearing out a bedroom so Kathy can stay there part of the time to help Kathy as well.

You'd better watch those collars.  I hear they're really made of lead and pewter

[GeorgieForPresident2216]

Could I get a loan too?  It would really help me if I could get some stuff out of my father's basement and put it into storage.  Don't know when I'll be able to pay it back, but this is part of my plan to finally become truly independent and bolster myself to greater prosperity.  Once I have things in storage I'll have no ties or obligations to my family and I'll finally be able to write my best selling novel.  Thanks.

Please post picture of autographed cartoon

Not in a position to do so at this time for technical and other reasons but I think I already posted it in this thread a month ago.
Will take a picture of it later tonight and post it.
If $250 is too much, then I need $150 as a minimum.
Let me know asap.

[coaster]

this again? i am so hungover. no falkie this weekend.

[bateman]

I had to change my phone number and i had tried to callPatty but she couldn't hear me.
So I went into the kitchen, turned on coast and started doing the dishes, clearing out the cat food cans that were soaking, and finished the sink in 20 minutes.
Went back to try Patty again about the solar a/c cooler and wwe're talking and i' about to hang up and the phone goes beep and this guy says hello and I say hello & this went on for a couple of tries until I said :

" What do you want sir ? "

He asks :

" Is Sharon there ? "

So I told him no, there is NO Sharon here.

So he goes :

" she was supposed to show up here. she owes me money. "

Now he called 3 more times and the guy sounds like Casio, G*d help me.

I told him the third time to quit harassing me.

The phone rang a 4th time whuke I was typing this and I slammed it down onto the receiver.

It might be time to get rid of the land line and get a cheap cell phone next month.

Oh boy.
