Kindle no more

/The moniker Kindle McGuinness is dead.

If I'm to walk this grand trail ... it will notify me if I'm to be known differently than my birth name.


HYOH.

The end of another dream ... what's next?

The end.

That is where most beginning start.


Quick check to see how fast google notifier notifies y'all that I'm closing up this blog.

Seems, this day and age of free theft of data and schitt,
one has to be aware if they have been compromised.

I think I may have been from a while ago ... online trading training.

I believe I'll be moving to Apple or Mozilla and pay for my protection.  Free is not what it's cracked up to be especially now that I have the "Ins" on the markets.
Odd how it all crashed this past week.

With a house full of microphones, who's to know who's is turned on and when their phones are in the room when they are not.

So with that, it is time to bid good bye.

Kindle is no more.  Starting fires is for someone else to do.
I've even not liked the last few pints of Guinness I've drunk either ... I guess change is the only constant.

A few days of clean up and one email is gone forever.
Soon, I'll have one moniker and it will be mine to control, kindly.

See ya.
Here, there or in the air.

Twice now in 140 days I've missed a day.
Making it up sucks.

Others will be getting their wishes, I'll have limited technology use on the trail.

With that, I've been instructed to not hike until it can be paid for with trading.

Delays because of cash ... just like hiking.

With the hassles of technology and my anger towards it all.

My blog ends here until I can get "To the Trail"

tattoos .... my body art

Words.  Set #23
To those following along … still 71 days or so till I hike … less blogging in 24 days.

(Power)  Satisfied
adjective
  1. contented; pleased.

(Force)  Salted
verb
past tense: salted; past participle: salted; adjective: salted
  1. 1.
    season or preserve with salt.

******
Hiking:
In the schitt clearing, I found all the little gadgets and information I have saved for my future A.T. adventure.
Now I get to see what still works and test them against others I have doubles of … lots of little flash lights I see for some reason.

Technology has made some of my past items obsolete so they can be sold, let go or given away to some hiking organization in the area.

Organizing, tossing, donating and stowing …. all for when I return to edit film, audio and process the adventure … write the book or manuscript or flow diagram …. my office is just about ready to receive me back in the future.

*******
I choose to adorn no tattoo in remembrance of those who were forced to be tattooed.

My body art has a story in each scar.
Even the next that are forming on my fingers to remember the day I tried (unsuccessfully) to catch a falling glass in a sink area … the surrounding moments are the memory, not the lost glass.

It took me back to a conversation I had with my grandparents when they both were alive … I was about 5, 6 or 7.  Some day I'll realize the day … I was instructed to become an American.

I had questions about being 100% Polish decent.
I wanted to learn the language they all talked while I was around.
It sounded neat … Aunts, Uncles, Bling, Bling, Bling … but no, that was not my instructions.

I think my Dad was removed from his own family in some way.

During these moments, I noticed that some of the women had number tattoos on their arms … my questions about them were answered … concentration camps …. Nazis … I was pleaded to never adorn a tattoo in remembrance of those that did not have a choice … 59 years later, my only tattoos are scars.

My Dad's only Tattoo, a rose with the word under it - MOM.
Her name was Mary … at least that is the one they gave her at Ellis Island …. a planned visit to find out the day is in my future.

I guess he was rebelling in his own way … I never guessed before, but now I fully understand the conversation with his parents.

American 1950's punk ass Dad with a Polish family background … 

For me personally?
It was a lot of paperwork and it was rough getting a USN clearance and I'll never know why.   
I honestly don't need to as everything and all did eventually go thru to help me understand how to be an American … all the way and as close to any edge I could get to.

******

Then my memory faded back to where I found in my Schitt a few quotes I jotted down back in my past ....

"Do no let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do." 

~ John Wooden

… "As you move forward on the success journey, you need to remember that what happens IN you is more important than what happens TO you.  
Unfortunately .... pg 15 "  

Unfortunately for me, my old note ended there.
I can only assume that it came from the book or course:

The Success Principles by Jack Canfield.

The Future Depends upon what we do in the Present.


"If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live that life which he and imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."
~ Henry David Thoreau

Here is the KEY reason:
Other people may be responsible for making you who you are.

They did the best they could with what they had to work with.
YOU are responsible for changing it.  ~
Mahatma Gandhi

*****
Crunches, modified push ups, guitar time (a song right now), trading code learning, sewing, clearing, planning ... Grammar App … all in love.

Self, Others, Future ... all in love.    A little each day.... hugs.

When I changed the way I looked at things, the things I looked at changed.  Thanks Wayne Dyer.

Flip presumed bad Karma into lessons … "looking for the cookie thief" as Wayne Dyer describes … or the dog that takes packages from porches … or the glass that breaks and cuts a few digits to test ones Moxie.
I'm still peeling the layers of the onion … when chopped: tears 
Then to sweetness when cooked I can only hope.


Moving forward with a rebuilt laptop that is a bit wonky this morning as it finds it's way thru the 5th set of updates … tethered to my iPhone … might bounce box my laptop and this is my testing of equipment for weight and choices too.
Most all my digital archives are now on a 4TB drive about the size of a deck of cards … I have a few hard drives to convert over before I destroy those …. I had sense enough to label them with painters tape for my future self to realize the video and book data stowed in the most advanced manner in my time line of technology.

Now it's streaming everything … unless you have limited bandwidth on the side of a mountain … flash cards you can swallow and drives that hold a schitt ton of stuff … securely … what a world we live in.

I'll test a wireless keyboard and my phone some day soon to really keep the weight down … just in case I want to be less tethered … hiking my hike, for me, the way I desire … not someone else.

As for talking to the phone … I'm being reminded over and over and over again that my battered brain likes to share …. I've been labeled "Chatty Cathy", "Gabby", "Mr. Talks Too Much" and other monikers over my life … sorry if I bore you with my writing then.
So talking to a phone that has to have it's microphone on to observe if you are actually talking to it …. sorry … I've been listened into too many times … that is why I talk story …. A lot to choose to use that might cause confusion … to my advantage just like the ass in chief does but on a smaller scale … I've used it my whole life too.

So, talking to record my novel (short story, cartoon play, manuscript) is not going to happen.  
I'll type until my fingers stop working, then and only then will I go to saying: Computer, what is today's Margin balance?  Good!  Trading did allow me to purchase a World Cruise in one week.

Actually, 5 star manicured hands might forget how to type for a Season … that is the dream.  :)

Everytown .... making money

Words. Set #24

(Power)  
Requesting
verb
gerund or present participle: requesting
  1. politely or formally ask for.

(Force)  Demanding
adjective
  1. (of a task) requiring much skill or effort.

*****
With all the talk of apologies ... I understand that some people will never apologize ... it's not in them to do it .... one could wait years and it never does happen ... no matter how many times the door is reopened to do so ... it is also something that cannot be demanded.

*****
EveryTown.org
Gun Violence.

We can be the healing ...
We can be the Flower 

and the gun.  
Requesting ... and wait.

*****
Internet is an issue still.  Iphone works ok.

Beginning a 4TB backup (of my electronic life) - I should not fill it but I could not pass up the deal for 4TB at $94.00

Trading could end up supplementing some of my trip as I would like ... just I would need a machine online and a person to attend it each week on Friday Shutdown, update and then Sunday Startup.
Or just have windows do that as it is built in.
Time will tell as the flow works.


Getting all my stuff into storage ... I trust I'll be the one unloading the schitt after the trail.  Much will change as it should.

Moving forward....
