    Cliche'

    If you wanted cliche' then you could have asked,
    There is much of that which can be passed,
    Even the seasons are a perfect dial,
    to shine on our hours,
    and of what makes us smile.
    A chap named Buddha silently sat,
    A mind a wash of chatter then naught.
    A book? he could have written a second,
    A thought eating itself from within.
    He stayed in pose and brought it all to a thin sharp point.
    Not ohmm,
    Not, heyyyaa-ummma-iggymooooo-ahhh
    But simply,
    It just is.
    And there is nothing more cliche' than that!

    The player to the right of her was crying and pissed off too. They basically wanted to win that much, and were so used to winning, that in this case she couldn't process having lost and was having a tantrum.

    In that article is a few examples of the people who attempted to defend her actions, which I find just as appalling and naive. They try and say it is okay because emotions run high and anyone condemning it have obviously never competed past grade school, or something to that effect. Where my response to that is that many many sports people from all around the world take defeat graciously, many people fail in life and get back up again. It may be fine to have a tantrum now and then, but to defend someone doing it is ridiculous, it would be better for those ones to just say well done for apologising, and leave the defending bit alone as they have basically just taken the shame of the act for themselves.

    That's embarrassing. That image will be dogging her for a while, I imagine.

    The moon is so very bright right now. The storm in the northeast is messing with my travels. And my brother thinks most people are useless. What an ass.

    99.9% illumination this time. Month of extremes, the new moon was 0.0% illumination. Last Super Moon for several months. Blue moon month this month too. Well, not for NZ we get an April Fools Moon, and we get a blue moon in NZ on the 30th of April.

    Next super moon, 23rd December this year. Then a Super Blood Moon in Jan 19, followed by super moons Feb, March. Then no more till Jan 2020, super blood moon again. then super moon in Feb 2020, and a 'Proper' Super Moon March 10 2020 where the Perigee is on the full moon day, not 1 or 2 days either side of. And another of the same in April 2020, then a supermoon in May, 1 day stagger, Blood moon June and July, June one having a 3 day stagger from Super. And another blood moon in November 2020. Oh that's a Blue Blood moon.
    So there we are 2 years of full moon anomalies. 2020, the year of the blood moon lol.

    I got quite annoyed today, I think the Moon's energy is messing with my head again. Been a bit restless and sleepless.. Tends to happen during (some) Full Moons.

    2020 must be an important year!

    Yeah, it is amazing how often it seems to have an effect. From taking note of the moon states, it is quite frequent that, as I observe people online and in person, the full moon and or the perigee when they are close together, can ramp up emotions and manic behaviour. Sometimes for the better and we witness some very inspiring moments. Other times one witnesses huge melt downs and turmoils. Not every time, but quite frequently. The perigee seems to have just as much effect, in that sometimes it all happens on that day and the Full Moon is either quiet, or has the more inspiring moments, or everyone is tired and they withdraw from sight. Just my opinion on observing and experiencing. I can get very manic, some might say it is because of being a Cancerian. But I am not entirely sure how much I subscribe to that kind of thing.

    Your fascination with moon phases is, um, fascinating...

    Same thing here, although I'm also highly pissed and annoyed over the fact that my ISP has been cutting my internet connection for maintenance four times already in just over 24 hours, each time for about half an hour up to an hour and a half, and all without any prior announcement.

    And then they have the audacity to invite you to participate in customer satisfaction surveys, and they raise their fees at the same time. Are these people for effing real?


    Note: Switching to a different ISP is not an option. I'm on cable internet, and my ISP holds the monopoly on that over here.
