What is a blog?
To those who are asking "what is a blog?", a blog is a personal Web log (blog is a shortened way of saying weblog), a chronicle of events or a journal where somebody writes down things that happen in their lives, their thoughts, and opinions.
What's the difference between a blog and a forum? Some people confuse forums with blogs. A forum is for public discussion. You can look that up in the dictionary if you like. ;-) A blog, being a Web log, journal, or personal diary would be for an individual. Look at some personal blogs and compare them with forums, even those that for some odd reason are calling themselves blogs. You'll see the difference quickly enough.

Started a new blog page for 2012
Here's hoping this year is better than last year . . .
Today, I heard that super seniors, which is a term used for those over the age of 85, are getting Medicaid. What I would like to know is, how can they can get it, when they're already on Medicare, being over the age of 65? Even a disabled ordained minister who is qualified for Medicaid according to the Florida Department of Children and Families income limits (which they have posted on their Web site) cannot get it, and, when asked, Florida's DCF says that you cannot have Medicare and Medicaid at the same time, and, if you try to quit Medicare to get Medicaid, the Florida DCF won't allow you to have any help. What I find really strange, is that the government gives convicted rapists, child molesters, murderers, drug dealers and thieves better healthcare in prison than a law-abiding, disabled ordained minister whose yearly income is less than the poverty level. Wonder if they're proud of that fact . . . Heck, I can't even get them to pay my Medicare premium with the Medicare QMB program they said I was qualified for!
It feels like I'm being slowly tortured to death for being good, for trying to obey the law, and follow the golden rule. Each day is filled with pain just from breathing or walking. Is the government trying to tell me that the only way I'll get healthcare is if I commit a very bad crime which will make me have to stay in prison? How much longer can I endure the pain before I feel forced to do that, seeing no other way out? I tried to be nice. I tried to be patient. I've written the Florida Department of Children and Families letters. I've talked to them in person. I've talked to them on the phone (on the very rare times I was able to get one of them on the phone). The Florida DCF seems to be leaving me no choice, and it is only a matter of time before the growing pain overcomes my sense of right and wrong. But, I seem to be one of a very few who tries to do the right thing, and not hurt others, even though it means my pain increases day by day. For this, I am punished. For believing that the American government will do what's right instead of punishing those who try to be good, and reward those who do wrong, I am punished. Perhaps in a few days to a few weeks or so (if I can stand the pain for even that long), I will realize that to do very bad things is what the government wants, and I will be rewarded with free health care, clothing, a job, a place to live and food prepared and served to me at no cost to myself . . .

January 30th, 2012:
Created a new Web pages for the City of Heroes game.
Thought I would make a page and put most of my suggestions for the City of Heroes game on it, so I did with the City of Heroes Game Suggestions and Requests from Players on How to Improve the CoH MMORPG game page.
Hope I can make special art for it later . . .

February 1st, 2012:
Created a new Web page telling people about the problems I'm having just getting Florida DCF to do a simple name change.
Decided that it would be better if I put all of the problems I'm having getting the Florida Department of Children and Families to do a simple name change onto one page instead of putting it on the blog pages. So, I created the Florida Department of Children and Families: Incompetent or intentionally sadistic? page.
Another page I kind of put up in a hurry, without any special graphics for it, but, not certain how much more time I've got left . . .

Watched Thor: Tales of Asgard, and there was something interesting, there.
After watching the Thor: Tales of Asgard movie (2011), and getting to the end credits, I discovered something interesting, there. In the background artwork, they used the same runes, over and over again. In addition to that, the runes weren't from the same source. They initially used a combination of Futhark and Teutonic runes, with one variant. The message read, in english:
"Now is the time for all good men to Thor rules big time."
You might think, from the way that this is written, that someone had started to write something else after Now is the time for all good men to, but, as many know, this is a typing drill created by Charles E. Weller. Later, the words come to the aid of their country, were added, making the full sentence Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country, which fills out a 70 space line if you add a period at the end.
But, there is also an off-Broadway musical from 1967 called Now is the Time for All Good Men. Perhaps they were trying to allude to it, while making it appear to be, for those who were un-familiar with the typing drill, as an in-complete sentence, or, for those who recognized it as the drill, to be it. And, that would stop most people, there, thinking they had solved the mystery, being convinced that there would only be one layer to it, as it were. Perhaps there is more to it, and in the next line, Thor rules big time, which appears to be something completely innocent, as if spoken by someone of a certain age to convey envy of that god's power?
And, I mentioned a variant, didn't I? This was in their use of the rune called hagalaz, which they made to look like the letter N. Perhaps the artist made a mistake, or, it, too, has a deeper meaning? Hee hee hee
Just to have a little fun, I created something just for you, my readers, who might enjoy a little mental challenge. One of my characters in the City of Heroes game on Virtue server is called
KwhLBJphxQrHoLd. What does that mean? That's for you to figure out. Where's the challenge if you're given the answers without trying to figure it out for yourself? The instant gratification types wouldn't like me, and I have little sympathy for those who have had everything handed to them. But, I added a few twists to this. Giving you hints would make it too easy for you to solve. Maybe it's a strange riddle, wrapped within a mystery, inside an obscure enigma, broken up into a jigsaw puzzle made of stained glass, fractured beyond repair, enfolded within a conundrum, hidden within a Chinese box. Or, it might not mean anything at all. But, once you think you have it solved, you might not. And, if you keep thinking along those lines, there's really no turning back, and you start noticing other things . . . But, that's what happens when you take the red pill. How far down does the rabbit hole go? Only Alice knows . . . ;-)
Okay, I'll leave you with something easier for those who don't want their brain to feel like tapioca pudding . . . Find out where in the Dewey Decimal Classification system you'll find books on stained glass. After you find out, you'll wonder if someone making them for a church got a cold shiver. And, my apologies for anyone who has hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia . . .
