Happy Labor Day!

     Well, I am writing in this blog today.  Not much to write at the present.  I am headed into work shortly, is the reason.  I work midshift today.  I could wear my Sanitation shirt.  I will be Sanitation Clerk today, until after lunch.  I work from noon until after 8:45 PM.  But I can use the money.  I am happy for the hours.  They are over the holiday.

    This planet is Kelper-22b.  it is the first habitable planet discovered inside the habitable zone of a Sun-like star.  This was shared with me by Scott.  According to NASA the planet is 2.4 times the size of Earth.  It is considered an exoplanet.  What is an exoplanet?  They are worlds orbiting other stars.  Some are larger than Jupiter, while others are the size of Earth or Mars.  

    Well, this is an interesting discovery.  The discovery was in 2011.  The last update on the page is 26 Jan. 2021.  Today is Sunday, September 5, 2021.  So, just over six-months ago, this page was updated.  Each day that passes, I always wonder, will they find an earth like planet.  That would be so cool if they did.  How long would it take to travel there, I wonder.  Supposedly, this planet might have a tail.  That was from another NASA article.  For planet TOI-1231 b.  For planet TOI-1231 b they want to view it with the Bubble.  There is also a new telescope named the James Webb Space Telescope.  Named after James E. Webb who ran NASA from 1961 to 1968 in October.  He was also Under Secretary of State. TOI-1231 b orbits a dwarf-star.

    Anyways, time for me to go to work.  I was just putting this together for my friend Scott.  I will write more later.  
    Well, I ended up closing again.  The new guy was supposed to close, but didn't show up, so it was on me to close.  Now, here I am writing on my blog.  I had some coffee this morning, and now I feel great, except that I lost my lighter.  That is ok because I had another one.  
    Thankfully, while I was at work, my Dad took care of Max.  He even got Max some food.  But last night a cockroach got in.  So, my Dad killed that cockroach, first he used Raid.  But in the end he stepped on the cockroach.  Then, threw it in the trash.  It probably took him thirty minutes to get the cockroach.  At least he got it.
    Now, I am hungry.  I am going to eat at Chick-Fil-A later on.  Yumm, Chick-Fil-A, I enjoy me some chicken sandwiches.  Yesterday, My nephew Brice experienced his first movie in the theater.  I have not seen a film in theater since Midway.  Each day that goes by, with COVID and the shutdowns, not sure I want to watch a movie.  It isn't COVID so much that I am afraid of.  Its the shutdowns (lockdowns?) that are the real concern.  The confusion the shutdowns causes makes me nervous.  Some places are in a shutdown, some are not.  So, you only no for certain if you go to the place.  Online it might say its open, but it is actually closed.  
    I am listening to Studio 10 Broadcasting again.  Very interesting show.  If you can find it, I recommend it.  He is a prepper.  But Michael Anthony discusses a lot of cool stuff on his show.  He usually broadcasts solo but other times in conjunction with other broadcasters.  
    Now its time for me to head in to work.  Have a good day.

Completing This Post

 I saw this unfinished post from October 30, 2024.  So, I decided to finish it.  I cannot remember what it was going to be about!  So, I will do my best, to put a complete thought.  I am at work right now, too!  Maybe I should not be posting- oh, well. I am not even sure how to share an image here!  But maybe that is ok.  Normally, on this blog I share an image, or a video, or music.  Mostly from YouTube, because I like the platform and have supported it in the past.  But now it is not allowing me to share here, from YouTube.   Anyways, I am sitting in my car.  All day it's been raining off and on.  I guess there is flooding at this time in part of Texas known as "The Hill" Country.  At a camp, some girls were killed in the flooding!  They have received historic amounts of water. I have been researching about something known as "Epic City", it is a "Master planned" city, with Sharia Law at its root!  Sh...

In the Last Days Jesus Said: 'No Flesh Would be Saved'.... But Why?

This video is over a week old, but it is under 20 minutes long.  About Artificial Intelligence and something else- Transhumanism. Be aware of what is out there.  Don't be a sheep.  "If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples" (John 8:31). This video is a brief disection of different sources on AI, and Transhumanism.  In it, the author "Watchman" contrasts it with Frankenstein.  Meanwhile, Watchman takes a look at the scripture in Luke, where Jesus describes the "End Times".  The shortening of the days, for the elect's sake.  This video will give you a "big picture" understanding of what is involved in Transhumanism in a way that you have not viewed it yet.  It is good, and as I said brief.  Grab some popcorn, sit back, and prepare to be informed.

COVID 19 Pandemic

 The Pandemic started earlier than people realize.  Although the lockdown began on March 13, 2019.  The Pandemic began in December 2019.  Hence the name, COVID-19.  The pandemic is still going on.  Here in Texas, the Governor has removed the mask requirement at the state level.  But at the local level some mask mandates are still on going.  Image provided by dshs.texas.gov At Albertsons where I work.  They still require a mask.  Unless someone is vaccinated.  We are required to test for COVID prior to work at a kiosk.  Once we have the test from the kiosk, the kiosk prints off a picture of the person.  Then, you are required to wear a mask.
