December 30

12:59/10:59 Ieri am lucrat pe la mașină, am intrat de mai multe ori după scule, nu am avut grijă și am adus pe picioare praf din acela iritant de lemn roșu (sequoia) pus în jurul clădirii. M-am prins când am văzut că am dureri peste tot, care uneori îmi provoacă crampe la picioare și mâini (cârcei). Am fost și am șters praful din fața ușii, am pus alt prosop spălat și ud deasupra filtrului, am văzut că era fum afară. Am astupat niște găuri de cârtiță, fumul s-a mai liniștit, dar mi-a dispărut durerea pe care o am de o lună la genunchiul drept, de la fum. Știu ce înseamnă asta, mâine abia voi putea merge. Din cauza durerii am băut și mâncat în neștire "scovergi", Munchies, nișe aperitive uscate, numai hidrați de carbon. În sfârșit m-am oprit și mi-am luat glicemia. 340. M-am dus la o plimbare până la drum să-mi mai scadă. Fulguia. Aleea este foarte înclinată, mă temeam să nu cad pe puful de zăpadă căzut pe asfalt. Când m-am întors, am văzut că fum este doar în jurul clădirii noastre. Am călcat pe un fir de apă înghețat de la un burlan deconectat acoperit de un puf de zăpadă și era să fac o cădere acrobatică, dar m-am redresat. Glicemia mi-a scăzut la 314. Am citit minciunile pe care mulți le numesc știri. Oh boy.

7:33 Plugușorul lui Arafat: Gata pauza.

8:22 You will always be my friend...

12:20 Tema pentru acasă. Unii din ei, care știu, mai mult decât alții, să scrie în limba română se încumetă, vorba poetului, să ne "vorbească filosofie", în afară de a ne pune legi și biruri. Cândva mi se părea așa o infinitate să citesc frazele lor ce păreau pline de super conținut, dar acum îmi dau seama că e vorba doar de o greutate stilistică ce atinge mereu lipsa de logică și câteodată chiar îmi pare o colecție de strâmbe. Cât de dăunător poate fi acest exercițiu minții celor care se aventurează, dacă nu prin conținut, doar prin metodă și stil? De câte ori m-am poticnit în această scriere și nu am mai putu să continui, citind doar pe sărite și căutând cuvinte cheie pe temele cunoscute?

Poți face, dacă vrei sau nu te pricepi, sau din rea intenție, din orice problemă o problemă grea și din orice problemă grea una imposibilă, eșuând în într-o mlaștină de abstractism și generalități încuietoare și poți, plasând în locuri bine potrivite, în mijlocul unei teme zise filosofice, când mintea cititorului e puțin obosită și amețită, chiar niște subliminale sexuale.

 "Trebuie să studiem mai întâi totul, pentru a înțelege orice lucru, cât de mic" va fi întotdeauna, chiar și peste 1000 de ani, o misiune imposibilă. Așa că domnii mei, hai să o scurtăm puțin.

Nu vreau să caut acum să văd cine a mai spus și asta, că Dumnezeu s-a născut român, deși este parțial probabil. Numele Dumnezeu în limba română s-ar putea să vină de la Dumuzid, zeul păstor al babilonienilor, cei care au clădit mai târziu orașele din gunoi, întorcându-și fața spre Ishtar, zeița sexului și a războiului care s-a căsătorit cu Dumuzid și mai târziu l-a torturat, în lumea subterană (ușor de ghicit care), împrumutat nouă prin Roxolani, cei care purtau zale pe columnă și nu erau daci deși au luptat de partea dacilor, în timp ce Ishtar a devenit Isten în Ungaria.

Dihotomia știință-religie. Poate, cândva, de mult, pe vremea când științele erau primitive și religiile dogmatice și ambele nedemocratice, prin accesul greoi și costisitor la educație și informație. Un discurs prelungit nepermis de mult 22 de ani în mileniul al treilea, 30 de ani după apariția internetului.

Cât despre prima idee nefericită din acest articol, aceea cu frica de moarte. Nu ne vindecăm frica de moarte prin religie, nici vorbă. Frica de moarte ca sentiment nu se vindecă fiindcă ține de instinctul de conservare a părții noastre de animal.

Funcționează cred, fiindcă în multe situații ne salvează, învățându-ne să ocolim situațiile periculoase (când traversăm strada ne uităm mai întâi în stânga și-n dreapta). E totuși un mod nefericit de a ne păstra în viață. Fiindcă dincolo de acest moment teribil, unic, în viața unui om, nu există nimic de care să ne fie frică. Nu există nici un fenomen fizic în absența unui observator. Nici un infern al lui Dante sau un Naraka sau un Svarga Loka ce au fost inspirate de unele locuri de aici, de pe pământ. Idea de iad sau rai se suprapune peste această frică instinctivă pentru a ne învață niște legi sociale. 

Nu pe Dumnezeu eram eu supărat ieri când am pus acel link la o pagină de "doxologie ortodoxă", ci pe ritualuri eretice, neînțelese, de neînțeles, promovată de o clasă religioasă infiltrată la vârf de către impostorii lor și care sub camuflajul unei proaste traduceri (în acest caz, probabil din slavonă, adică proto-rusă) pot duce în continuare, pornind de la subconștient, către rătăcire sau chiar la comportament antisocial, atât de acceptat și generalizat azi în România.

În Budism și Hinduism cel mai nașpa e să te naști din nou. Posibil ca furnică, dacă ai multe păcate. Deci nu strică să le studiezi, ca să știi ce te mai poate aștepta.

Cea mai mare vină a istoricilor vestici este studierea istoriei centrată pe regiunile planetare ignorând legăturile dintre ele. Eurocentrismul. Au existat dintotdeauna, schimburi culturale și comerciale între marile regiuni ale planetei, mai ales între Europa, Asia și Africa, cu centrul în Orientul Mijlociu.

Australia a fost într-adevăr izolată, și a dat naștere unei culturi, cu un vârf undeva poate chiar la 4000 BC, un salt, probabil printr-o mutație genetică sau de ce nu, intervenție din afară, unui grup și limbi care a cuprins rapid toată Australia, le-a eradicat pe celelalte și probabil s-a revărsat în restul lumii, creând tocmai acel început al istoriei cunoscute, acum 6000 de ani, Babilon sau dacă vreți Mesopotamia.

Ceva ce pare ușor de înțeles. Istoria este întotdeauna scrisă de învingători vremelnici, pe care lumea nu putea să-i mai încapă. Învingătorilor, fiind puțin, ceva de ordinul 144,000 la o lume de 7 miliarde și având ca singur instrument globalismul, normal, nu le convine orice rezistență locală, firească, pe care o caracterizează ca și tribalism și o acuză de toate păcatele lor.

Cât despre conflictele, războaiele generate "la marginea marilor religii", adică marile catastrofe sociale ale secolului trecut, ele au fost posibile numai după re-instalarea pe pământ a mass mediei cu mijloace tehnologice, care au fost folosite de ei pentru a înnebuni lumea, a-i împinge în războaie fratricide pentru a elimina tot ce a fost ierarhie, elite și în general ordine mondială până atunci.

Însă, ca în toată istoria, una este să cucerești un teritoriu foarte larg, ca de exemplu în acest caz întreaga planetă, și alta este să-l menții, amețind lumea, și pe această direcție se înscriu și eforturile indelebilului Gyula aici.

December 29

3:43 AM. An hour ago got pulled by a cop near Sheridan for going... too slow, also no LPN and drifting? he said. Driving at two speeds?, that i did not understand. I was on cruise control at 45 in a 55 area with wet road and temperature just changing from 32 to 33. Roads are good, he said when he gave me back my LPN, asking if the car was new, if i knew my last name, my destination, etc.. Then i felt compelled to drive faster, not knowing who was behind me. At one bridge i thought i saw ice and slowed back to 45 at any risk. 

Earlier. When i left home, i did not check the brake calipers sliding bolts. But i did not drive the car after i last checked those. Symptoms appeared, i pulled at a gas station and tightened those (they were loose again) though i had no torque wrench with me. When i got my destination, i saw they didn't get loose, though i used a 6 inch ratchet to tighten them at around 40 (my small torque wrench i last used and torqued at 40 is one ft). New symptom after cleaning spark plugs. Engine is "stronger", vibrates at certain RPMs, like the old Nissan which was missing an engine mount though. No increase in power or fuel economy. Ordered one mount that should have arrived on 28 (FedEx at PDX again), there is another one that i can do easily. The transmission mount i guess was not vibrated that much, that one is under battery. 

New symptom period. When turning at low speeds, a clunk on the right. Could be the aftermarket ball joint that was put there after first accident on the right in 2019? I heard the no-brand aftermarket ones sometimes do not last.

9:16/7:16 Magia sezonului, cu Alexandru Rafilă.

12:33 Got some more sleep after. While i was asleep they (can't remember when cause the guy upstairs is squeaking in my brain) came and deliver my part, making a noise at the door that woke me up. I went to pick it and forgot to put the block on the door. Slept maybe for 2 more hours.

9:00 In the afternoon in installed the part. It was worth it, increased driving and riding quality, though not totally, it encourages me to do  the other one too (the easy one) under the hood.

9:00/7:00 "Partidul Fidesz [Loialitate, credinţă şi încredere] condus de Viktor Orban, cu 5 procente peste opoziție". Pare că diferitele nivele ale iadului se organizează și se complimentează reciproc, spre buna lui funcționare, în interesul tuturor.

Apropo. Să fie că Dante s-a inspirat din hinduism?

În acest context, apare mult mai plauzibilă faza din Biblie cu coborârea lui Iisus la iad. Rămâne totuși o întrebare. Dacă el a fost în iad, iar noi avem datoria să-i urmăm exemplul în tot ce a făcut, trebuie să o facem și noi sau e suficient, ca și în cazul răstignirii, să credem?

9:40 Dirtiest place in your home. I don't use dishwasher on automatic because the water intake valve is broken. I tried to replace it but it broke again. It is the microswitch that is connected to the floater (left bottom in the image) that got contaminated with slime and flickrs, killing the valve's coil. But while working on it i noticed this smell and looked with a flashlight. The high pressure flexible pipe that brings water to the valve was touching the wall and they were sqft of mold @it, because water and pipe being so cold and wet with condensation. So i just quit using it on automatic, what i do is i add some hot water in it and start two washing cycles and two rinsing. It's time consuming, you have to come 3 times and add water, but is the only option. Sometimes we just do dishes manually.

When i opened it this morning to grab something, i noticed the dishes had a stinky slime on it. I thought they weren't rinsed from last night and started a rinsing cycle, but they wouldn't rinse. Finally i started to make sense of the smell near it and i knew it was time to take it apart and clean the slime from the surfaces invisible. It's not the first time. The first time it was working automatically and i found much more slime, hardened, it took me half day to clean it. When did i do it last time? 6 months ago? I think it needs to be done... i don't know, maybe every month or so. Maybe the surfaces under floater, the holes in the lid, the horizontal area under the grill and even the bottom, where water flows at a very low rate get contaminated after just one use. I just don't know. Maybe i shouldn't use it no more.

Could it be the dishwashers at the restaurants are the same? Could this be the reason Americans subconsciously prefer to eat fast food instead of cooking at home (contaminated ovens are also a big problem, affecting air quality inside), where food is wrapped in paper and never touches any dish? Just being around the thing by trying to clean it, after i ate, i already feel nauseated and my day just started.

December 27

11:54/9:54 Un Dracula de 68 de ani, cunoscut mai mult pe plan local, retras, ca dublare la postarea mea de ieri cu Țiriacula, cea cu mișcările sociale și pandemia din 1968-69.

12:58 Da și spatele are faruri, ca în față. Numele lui Păunescu în japoneză. Fatzakakru (here the guy upstairs started to shake the building with the washer). Un nume ce se potrivește la foarte mulți politicieni și chiar la unele politiciene de azi (alea care nu au fost modele de comportament înainte, și care au o față ca o... ci doar balerine gurmande).

Can't wait for my new custom LP, with the gray whale on background. It may be a gray whale on the plate, but the car is white.

8:35/6:35 Catedrala Mântuirii Neamului este... în construcție, cu un veșnic echer lângă. Oare câte miliarde nenumărate din donații s-au dus acolo?

9:41/11:41 Împuternicirea femeilor cu o tunsoare corporatistă

10:38 PM. A white powder is sprinkling everything in the silence of the night. Could not resist and went for a walk. Total silence over the snowflakes. Around the garbage cans and recycling bins a number of kids, some surely Japanese, opening the bins (where i've been earlier to throw some empty water bottles). Waited like 15 minutes and went again, they were still there. Another kid (the yelling one) of course yelling in the distance at every step. Then two jet planes flying very low, making a sinister noise. As i passed, one guy at an entrance gathering the flegm from the bottom of his lungs and spitting. As i was walking, slowly, relaxed, a SUV with a big engine passed and let me see the LPN. LZN (Lazy Now?). When i got back at the building, i saw the kids again around the bins. One open cardboard box, a root of a tree i almost tripped upon. At the end of the alley, at the upper level on a stairs deck a guy was supervising everything, majestically. (For what's worth it erlier, i woke up in smoke, went outside with a mask on, this time the smoke had an alumina (aluminum oxide, aerosolized to nano particles, made by an ancient recipe) which covered my whole body and went inside the lungs, and now i got pain all over, feels like crying and as it's clearing the lungs, irritates my esophagus, and i had trouble swallowing some grated apple).

11:04/9:04 Tema pentru acasă. Astăzi, Băsescu (atenție, conține subiecte emoționale).

Probabil nu mulți au făcut, direct, atât de mult rău României, din care Cațavencii încearcă să inventarieze (damage control). Însă cel mai mare rău este trecut cu vederea și uitat. Băsescu a pus ultima semnătură, deși, a criticat-o la mișto, pe legea 341/2013 prin care a redus majoritatea unui referendum la 12,5%.

Culmea ironiei, legea, de altfel neconstituțională, a fost "adoptată", înaintea promulgării de către Băsescu, de Parlament tocmai în urma frustrării generale pentru netrecerea celui de-al doilea referendum de demitere (Până la data respectivă România de-a lungul istoriei a avut în total 6 referendumuri, care includ pe cele 2).

Personajul Băsescu a mai numit, prin decret și peste 10.000 de procurori și judecători așa că nu ne așteptăm degrabă la vreo justiție, măcar simbolică, pe personaj. O justiție reală pe persoană (scriitorul respectiv mă rog) nu s-ar putea aplica decât Ungariei și Japoniei în totalitate, dar cum, dacă nucleul dominican (care sunt convinși că îndeplinesc pe Pământ job-ul lui Dumnezeu), supervizat manipulat de budiștii shinobi deține controlul în toate țările din lume, de cel puțin câteva sute de ani, iar justiția este parte din state, care au fost înființate tocmai pentru a ține sub control acele țări?

December 26

2:25 Felt smoke smell, went outside, only to see the sprinklers sprinkling the snow and someone drawing things on the snow of the windshield and hood of the car. Never happened before, though i suspected for a long time they are messing with my car, like last time, loosening bolts on brake calipers.

I remember a few days ago, i was really sick, went for a walk to get rid of the smoke, at the end of the alley, or the entrance of the complex, where the red car with GRU licence plate number is, there was a cop interrogating a red headed woman and a guy, both seemed a bit in trouble, for a moment i thought i should head on a different alley, but then i said to myself, how that would have looked, however, when i got close enough, the cop looked at me and got into his SUV and left, like he was afraid of me or something. 2:28/4:48 La un moment dat mă simțeam mândru și împuternicit de capacitatea de a recunoaște instant minciunile din media. Apoi, când mi-am dat seama că de fapt tot ce e în media e minciună, de multe ori cu puțin adevăr, așa, ca un condiment, totul s-a transformat într-un coșmar. Citesc, defilez paginile în jos și mă cutremur. Sunt atât de multe minciuni încât orice comentariu mi se pare inutil. Media, statele naționale, de la crearea lor pe ruinele feudalismului sunt de fapt instrumente de opresiune asupra popoarelor pe care zic că le reprezintă. Da știu, sunt idei comuniste sau dacă vreți anarhiste, dar nici unii nici alții nu au mers atât de departe, încât să admită faptul că toate figurile, uneori puțin sucite, puțin strâmbe, puțin prea pitorești, nefirești de atrăgătoare, hipnotice pentru cei care nu știu, uneori semianalfabeți pentru limba română, care apar zilnic în media sunt de fapt niște demoni de pe altă lume. Fiindcă și comuniștii și anarhiștii și orice forță politică de care am auzit vreodată au fost, sunt tot de-a lor, simulați.

O lume cu alte reguli, alte religii, alte idei, unde singura gândire e supunerea orbească într-o ierarhie străveche și care se străduie, cu mult efort și mult succes s-o mimeze și recreeze, pe a noastră. Supunere hrănită de certitudinea că dacă nu se supun, sunt pierduți. Încet, aceasta se transferă și asupra noastră, prin corporațiile lor.

Uitați-vă de exemplu la bicepșii tipei ăsteia. Pentru cine a ținut vreodată o rachetă în mână. Poate ea să servească zece mingi la rând? Sau mingea e imaginară, adăugată pe ecran prin CGI sau mă rog cum se cheamă tehnologia respectivă.

9:57 As i woke up trying to feel myself (pains everywhere, due to some sort of whole body infection) i went to make some breakfast. I was craving broccoli. In the meantime they sent the yelling kid, with another, to disturb more of the snow on my car (and this time the guy's upstairs). However, it wasn't the kids who did it last night, cause it was too late, and quiet, the snow started to stick on cars around midnight. So they doubled this one too. How is this important? How would you feel to go in the driveway in the morning to see the car has been touched by somebody else, of whom you have no idea. Change of mood for the whole day, right? Influencing, right? And last night they made some signs on the windshield, i know what it means but don't have time to explain it. So they also took it to me.

10:04/8:04 Dracula, cel mai bogat român (mi se pare normal). Cât timp va mai ține Ion Țiriacula capul de afiș în România? Un tip de demon special, posibil o re-încarnare a lui Dracula. Un "spinto tenor" al unui teatru din Ungaria, începând din 1960, probabil de origine româno-germano-evereiască, ce a devenit solist în 1963. În anii 60 a făcut naveta în SUA, se pare că a apărut ca student, șofer, iar în 1966 apare cu înregistrări ca și cântăreț de folk, înregistrări ce au avut oarece succes, dar nu cu mult înainte de "moarte", într-un accident de avion în 1973 în timpul unui turneu (probabil nu făcea față la turneu, fiindcă nu vorbea suficientă engleză) (melodiile sale încă mai apar din când în când la radio). A înviat apoi în România cu tot cu faimoasa sa mustață gay (sau de Dracula), unde era nevoie de legende în vacuumul ceaușist, iar Dracula era viu și trebuia promovat lumii, însă ca jucător de tenis, când i s-a aranjat acea finală (totul în tenis și alte sporturi este aranjat).

Pleacă apoi "în Germania" și "se întoarce în România ca om de afaceri" (cine știe unde este el de fapt, tot timpul acesta a figurat ca tenor la acel teatru). Un nume și o față cu mustață pe o bancă. Dracula Bank. Huni Credit.

11:50 All of a sudden felt sleepy though i slept enough. Went to bedroom, where Angela still sleeps, there are not filters there (Angela can't stand them), there was smoke. Went outside, one single track in the snow. All along that track, big time smoke, soil was bulged. Tried and flattened as much as i could, smoke started to disappear, went inside, then i felt how much it was actually. Now trying to air.

12:05 BTW. Could not quite figure, until today, the real meaning of the syntagm. United States of America. Thank you, Dracula.

6:33 Ok. Here it comes. Debriefing. My side of the story of this afternoon. I think i was in bed, sleeping when the guy upstairs woke me up with almost violent squeaks. I was searching desperately for my old phone with the recording app, but the storage was full and i needed to fully wake up to make some room.

So i was trying hard when i heard Angela yelling at the band of demons outside who were snow fighting right in front of our door. Some snow got into my shoes on the deck. However they left and we fell onto their secondary purpose. To get us mad and leave. However, i promised myself that i won't drive that car again until i check the spark plugs, something i've been dreading and delayings since i got it here.

Dreading because though it sounds easy (easiest job one can do at a car), it's a very complicated procedure (i'll explain later). Delaying, because car has plenty of power, or at least when engine is hot, with other problems more urgent. Needing it, because of a misfire when engine and cat cold, leading to some (minor) emission problems, especially here in the alleys with all the good immigrant people potentially exposed, which i've been pressed about in the last couple of days, the message in the snow on the windshield). Misfire that was partially due to spark plugs, partially due to squishy lifters (stuck, sticky valves due to oil present in the intake). Really hard to figure which was the cause and which the effect, misfire leading to engine vibrating and sprinkling oil in the PCV valve which in turn was making valves sticky, leading to more misfire and more vibration. Anyways. Decided to cut to the chase and do at least those.

I know for a fact that every time you remove a spark plug you have to put in a new crush washer. I found 3 of them, new, in my old stuff, and another one partially intact, but when i pulled the old ones, i decided that the quality of what i had was way inferior so i went with the old ones, against recommendations. (Spent many hours online and on Amazon in the last few days, with no success in finding some, i believe nobody is selling them because they want you to buy new spark plugs every time you remove them).

So i gathered all my strength and courage (yet another job at 35 degrees outside but mostly, heavy smoke), Angela's approval and support, and went outside. First thing first. Plenty of smoke. I went and leveled all bulges and smoke disappeared, briefly. However, it was a trick and half hour later i found two brand new bulges next to where i was working, while there was plenty of smoke for me and passersby to breath. My guess? Today it was kratom.

I pulled the first one, loose (they were all), oil on the thread (oil is an insulator, prevents the high voltage to get on the base (ground) of the plug), inserted a forceps with an unrolled ball of cotton sprinkled with alcohol inside spark plug hole (a procedure i knew from the other car), turned it 25 times (the number of turns on the thread, 20, counted by me today +5) and turned it back and it came full of oil (the spark plugs themselves where much easier to clean). I repeated that 3-4 times or until the cotton was coming out clean. Multiplied by the number of spark plugs, which is 4. Checked the gaps, on number 2, gaps was slightly bigger. Much oil was on 1 and 3, 2 and 4 where cleaner, with 4 almost dry. Made sure i did not insert any cotton in the cylinders (which would have burned anyways) (picture done again in low light with my new 2020 unlocked moto e.

Right before i was finished (until then, only the inocent was present, to sniff my alcohol), the big guysh showed. Especially the gray Toyota with modified exhaust, who sounded "all clear".

Went for a test drive, engine running smoothly, car generally hard to keep on the road. Came back, heard the clunk at the entrance of the complex, checked the brake calipers sliding bolts which were loose, but this time, loose loose like one turn loose. And i only drove the car ten miles to Wilsonville and back since i tightened them. So i decided to pull the left front (closest to entrance) to see what. When i was doing that, again in smoke (this time, from an unidentified source), the two missionaries came. Giggling and talking to selves, they climbed the stairs right above where i was, offering me the view of one black dress with white stockings underneath, slightly overweight. Ah, the sisters! said the man upstairs. But he kept them at the door, and they tricked me a couple of times to look, making me think they went inside, but no, they stayed there and i went inside and waited until they leaved. The angels that came to tame the demon, while me watching, from below?

Finally they left, and i finally torqued the two bolts, couldn't find speks, i went like above 40. Put back the wheel, was able to do it on right side without taking it off, one more test drive, more clunking, until i finally torqued the tree bolts strut to frame, again, over 40, while they were presenting real loose, after i tightened them, like for the third time, two days ago.

I always thought i had a feel for torquing, i thought i can, with a 6 inch ratchet, do up to at least 50. To make a long story short, all the bolts i tightened that way (though in a similar way i did it all my life, without a torque wrench) were loose, after a ten miles drive. Never happened to me before. After i did torque them all, a much better drive, with smoothly running engine (after doing spark plugs), with almost unnoticeable (to expert driver) delay in shifting, no feel of going with the brakes on, nothing, except some vibration on certain areas on I5 only. Got back, no more clunk, checked, bolts on calipers where still torqued as i left them. Don't know, i could be done with this car. After i check spark plugs in a week or so, to see if they don't get more oil on the threads. If so, the catch can is ready in a box.

December 25

10:39 Andy did you hear about this one?

5:26 White Christmas for Midwest. Every time i say: This is the weirdest weather pattern i saw so far. Here, jet stream encompassing a cyclone, with clouds trying realy hard to form with too high atmospheric pressure above Pacific, turning into a real winter storm further in the middle of US. I saw the forecasts, weather was supposed to be "warmer than usual for most major US cities"? The only thing i'm afraid is after snow they're going to throw gravel on the alleys and leave it here for another year, to turn to granite dust and be blown up in the air every Wednesday.

5:29/2:29. Numbers seem to poured out of nowhere to double real info. Did i just say that the social unrest that started in 1968 in France ended in a pandemic?

5:31 My healing pod. Years ago i bought at Home Depot or Lowes polystyrene insulation for i can't remember what. To replace the dusty stinky insulation around a dishwasher. Recently, one day when i was realy sick, with pain in pancreatic area, i wrapped myself in some of that. Pains where gone within hours. So i built myself a sleeping bag like pod of that material. Flexible polystyrene with aluminum on boths sides. Today i almost could not walk because of pain in my right knee area. Especially after i go and flatten all mounds around foundation of this corner of the building to stop pain killing and numbing smoke. So i jumped into that one, together with a heating electric pad. Within a few hours i started to actually feel what happens to me. My hands and legs started to hurt like after being exposed to cold. I think my whole body is trying to shut down, by lowering metabolism. Not feeling it because of the smoke. Extreme bullying with squeaking from above. Some exposure to cold yesterday by working a bit at the car and staying outside for a couple of hours. Went in the kitchen area to grab some food. Same pattern. After squeaking, discretely on top of me in the bedroom, he now came in the kitchen area, moved some furniture, squeaked some more. Not leaving on Christmas day, not leaving on weekends, not leaving ever. Last week he was missing i think one day and one half in total.

6:20/4:20 Recitind primele pagini din Omul Dedublat. Un milion de detalii despre viața nesuferită a unor neadaptabili formând o nou creată clasă burgheză. Imposibilitatea unei vieți normale într-o birocrație kafkiană. O dublare în sine. Posibil creată pentru a anula unele suspiciuni apărute în societatea rusă. Rasputin avea să se nască 23 de ani după publicarea cărții.

8:36 Two songs, both sad, multiplied billions of times, what did i say about media pressure, still make (or brake) our Christmases. While voices and arrangements are ok perfect, hard to come with something better, it is suspicious they have not been overcome by others in so many years. Like oh so many other old antique Christmas songs on several temporarily dedicated local stations impossilbe to break from, including the one with the bright nose Rude elf going down through the chimney, others with almost explicit sexual content, pretty much like a non-Christmas song by Rihanna, "come into me!". Last Christmass, oficially recognized as a break up song, it is actually a subliminally gay making song, and i'll expain why. Hetero loving a whore it doesn't pay of, one year later George aka (to me) as Sorin Mihalea, Ioan Luchian Mihalea, becomes wiser and he finds the "special love" of

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover, but you tore me apart
Ooh-hoo
Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again

Is that the same diamond broche from the video?
As for Mariah, aka to me as Rimi, it is true, for Christmas they want us all. The demons

11:30 And they started right away the game of doubling, ingannare.

Also. If it was possible. The "man" upstairs (i believe they are several, going and coming through attic, taking turns) was crazier today than ever. Yelling and hitting the floor. Until i rebooted my old phone and put it in stand by to record (I saw at the new one the battery lasted for about a week, not anymore, so it was not the apps i installed in the old one). A couple a month ago, or the last time i talked to him, he said he is moving, but didn't say when. About an hour ago, he went down the stairs, pretending needing something from the car. Then all hell broke loose. The place filled with painful dust. I went and cleaned the deck, the rails that were covered with a whitish stuff. While doing so, smoke came in. Put a wet towel on the filter, went and found some soft areas (not even bulged) and stepped on and the smoke disappeared. While doing so, fresh smell of laundry (perfumed, stinky) nauseated me. Thinking. They totally control the area.

11:40 Arianii albi sunt în pericol.

11:43 Pentru mulți ani, demențial, bestial, au fost cuvinte folosite în media cu sens pozitiv.

11:50 Dublarea Giga. Oare se dublează și Mega?

11:53 Născut în Franța, de unde știe el cum e Africa, și mai ales unde se uită?

Acestea au fost câteva exemple, nu pot să stau toată ziua și să postez, peste subiectele mele, toate contrele, mai subliminale sau mai directe care apar în media, adică mai toate articolele. (A mai murit și teologul Demond Tutu).

Decembrie 24

12:05/10:05 Poate ar trebui să citesc din nou povestea omului dedublat sau cel puțin sumarul. Dostoevsky mai are o chestie, profeția din Demonii, însă eu aș merge mai departe și generaliza, nu e vorba doar de comunismul care a urmat, ci de ceea ce se întâmplă și acum, adică noua ordine corporatistă.

Omul dedublat, s-ar putea să conțină cheia sau cel puțin informații utile despre ceea ce se întâmplă acum. Citeam știrile, nu văd altceva decât dublări ale unor evenimente prin știri selectate sau inventate. Ceva ce la un moment dat am numit ingannare (un cuvânt latin), ceva cu care pur și simplu nu pot să țin pasul. Hai să dau un exemplu, intervenția lui Gorbaciov după ce am postat asemănarea dintre George Michael și Ioan Luchian Mihalea, alte chestii. Știm cu toții, Gorbaciov are pe frunte harta Italiei care se oprește la Roma, iar eu mai știu că de-a lungul vieții același actor (cântăreț de operă) l-a mai jucat pe Elvis Presley, precum și pe liderul revoluției din 1958 din Ungaria, Attila Jánoki.

Probabil că se poate construi o teorie matematică care să explice folosirea dublării. Este foarte simplu deși se aplică într-un sistem extrem de complex, societatea umană multinațională. Dacă se introduce în circuitul informațional social un eveniment asemănător cu primul, se crează suficientă confuzie pentru ca nimeni să nu poată trage nici o concluzie constructivă din primul (se introduce dubiul asupra primului eveniment, de obicei nu există nici un indiciu - track back - către primul, pentru persoanele care nu suspectează nimic). Însă mai e și chestia cu substituția, care este de fapt opusul dedublării. Persoanele substituite nu au nici un fel de răspundere pentru ceea ce crează, fiindcă de fapt nu există. Exemplul lui lui Cîțu. În tupeul său infinit, sau mai bine zis inexistent, fiindcă el face ce face la comanda unui dirijor, sau al unui ansamblu de dirijori aflat în starea de dreaming, sau comuniune hai să zicem spirituală, a venit și a postat niște poze cu el însuși, în ipostaze detectabil diferite. Sau mă rog, cineva i le-a postat.

Asta nu face decât să-mi amintească faza cu bugetul, această scrisoare a lui Poe ascunsă în văzul tuturor. Pe pagina lui de fb se găsește un grafic cu execuția  bugetară la 6 luni. 80% clamează el, în Monitorul oficial am găsit 70. Mă rog. Hai să mergem la Ministerul Transporturilor. (Nu știu exact când, cel puțin cu 5 ani în urmă, au venit și au inventat chestia cu "credite de angajament", adică bugetul e și el în formă dublă, adică bugetul propriu zis lângă care mai apare o sumă, credite de angajament, care bănuiesc că e o formă de transfer al unor sume de la un an la altul, imposibil de verificat). Deci în versiunea cu credite de angajament, bugetul Ministerului Transporturilor pe anul care a trecut a fost de 32 miliarde. "Executat" 70 sau 80 la sută, dacă acest procent să menține până la sfârșitul anului (probabil vom vedea sumele în Monitorul Oficial la începutul anului) tot avem o sumă enormă, pe care nu ne-a explicat-o nici un om politic.

De ce demonii lui Dostoievski ne aplică aceste teorii și de ce ei sunt altfel decât noi? Pur și simplu pentru că au trăit în Australia, pe singurul continent izolat, separat de restul lumii, timp de zeci de mii de ani, și astfel și-au format toate aceste idei pe care noi, restul, majoritatea, nu le vom înțelege niciodată. Poate că nici nu sunt idei conștiente, dar ceea ce ei numesc "the dreaming".

1:41 After my last trip at the Spirit Mountain, got a clunk at the suspension on the left front. Could have happened earlier cause it can only be heard when i do the right turn at the entrance of the complex, which is more elevated. Tried the upper strut connection, lug nuts. Got to jack the car, remove the wheel to see. First, stepped on a few mounds, killed the smoke. Every time i tried to do it so far, they come with bags, gifts, all the good people of the complex on Christmas eve, only me working on car. The guy upstairs yells profanities for real every time i get depressed or mad (in my mind), almost caused me another dysphagia.

2:10 I turned the wheel, without jacking, again in heavy rain, tried sway bar to strut linkage, turned the other way and found one caliper slider bolt (14 mm hex head) loose about one quart of a turn (yes the one i worked on last time, but i always torque them twice, yes by hand). Laundry perfume flooding the space around car, hiding something else. Got nauseated. Every time i go outside there is one person ready and passes by.

4:34 All four bolts on both calipers were loose. Went for an Amazon return, UPS store was closed, searching for a fresh Christmas tree in two places, both closed, some stuff at NAPA, got there at 3:00, the guy just closed door in front of me. Went through several red light cameras. When i got back i stopped on red at Tualatin Sherwood and 99, and can't remember if i left on green or it was just the green left arrow (first light out of three in front of me, done that before). Saw a flash or two right after i left, but they were kinda faint. One guy going through intersection the other way, kinda fast. Got one car in front of me, could have been both green arrows were on when he came from left, one guy at my right. Had my mask on but under the nose. Got a trip permit, which is visible from behind. Now i start having fun searching for situations like this. First thing i found. Where is this world going to? (Not that i'm drunk but i love this song, (still) following on youtube). "Stevie Nicks" is a genius. And despite everything they say, the guitar sounds extraordinary.

11:25 I can't believe i've done it again. I was very nervous because of the car and all the ninja in the world that ruined (again) my Christmas eve. Made a big mess in the kitchen. However, i've done some of the best "cozonacs" in my entire life. Isn't this a pity, the older you get, the better your cozonacs?

Another favorite of mine. For some "reason", associated with this time of the year...

1:01 GNU Not Unix. I always believed. Huns could not have been that numerous. They knew they couldn't openly dominate the Romans and stopped at the gates of Rome in exchange for Panonia. Romans were at the peak of their might, with probably millions of soldiers (records show 300 thousands). The only way they could have brought the Roman Empire to its knees was secret, unconventional warfare. One sack of cannabis burnt from the direction of wind towards enemy's camp, just before the attack. But with current religious leaders, after infiltrating the Catholic Church with their people - the Dominicans, others, many records have been suppressed and under unprecedented pressure of media in the past century, contemporary people got used not to (know what to) think anymore.

7:50 Nihil sine transitu. Înapoi, la tranziție. 2009.

8:29 Place filled with smoke. Every time is different. I think they're rotating kratom, cocaine, meth, others. I went and leveled the bulges, one under deck, one under bedroom window, one under the bush in front, now airing. By doing so i got to breath more next to those. Temporarily stopped thinking, can't do what i wanted this morning. My brain just froze.

9:25 Still sick from the smoke. I made some tee, mint and chamomile, i asked Angela why it tasted like soup. Because it has tarragon in it she said. Read on the label. Mint with tarragon. Wanted to go and grab something from the trunk of the car. A delivery van flashing yellow lights next to red curb, 10 ft away from my trunk. A guy with a white beard and a big white dog peeing copious amounts in front of the car. Feels like i'm going to puke.

9:52 Finally got to my trunk. Trying to clean the apartment, big dilemma, got the parts i replaced (pulled from the car) that could prove what kinda cascade failures the car had and whose fault was, but have no room to store them.

2:09 Apparently DNA sequencing (and RNA by generalization) doesn't work for samples preserved in formalin (an aqueous solution of formaldehyde) for more than 30 years. Formaldehyde also denatures proteins (changes their structure) so spike protein of a certain virus variant cannot be recognized after a sample being kept in formaldehyde for 100 years. RNA sequencing is the other method of determining a COVID variant. Then how do they know.

8:40/5:40 A pandemic  never comes alone. Did Hong Kong flu had a contribution to ending of the 1968 social unrest that started in France? Not in the US. Also could not find any references as being more than one variant. To me, one thing is sure. If not for the current pandemic, the global elite would have been screwed by now. But if that stop working, they will come up with something.

9:50 Ok the reason my immune system can't fight with the current T gondii infection is because the red wood dust that i breath which contains antimicrobial tanine, mutates the protozoa in my gut faster than my immune system can keep up.

6:26 Winter solstice. Sun "stays". Which means it's not going down south no more (angle with horizon at noon). Starting today, will go back up until June 21 when it will reach maximum, another solstice, with an equinox (night equals day) on March 21.

Started again to search for a face, a guy with slanted eyes and narrow forehead with lots of hair for his age, again room filled with smoke. Probably some guy passing with a dog stuck again something in two different places, one next to the wall where i'm at, one under deck. I went and stepped on the bulges, but lately i realized it's not really helping a lot, they added something in the formula that makes it keep burning. I think of a short bald smiling guy (blonde Buddha as i call him) that i once saw with the dog very close to that wall and my door.

10:35 Hugger 1:30 Went outside with a soft long haired cob web brush and a bucket of water and gently rubbed the car in the rain all around while rinsing the brush in the bucket. While in the middle of it, a smell, most likely kratom, filled the area. An older unknwon guy that could have been Latino or Hungarian, passed, to witness. Some guys at the next entrance started to yell. After i was done, i went and checked and there was an open hole not far from the car. Went and scrapped some soil with a kitchen spoon, mixed with with cement and plugged that hole and the smoke disappeared.

2:01/12:01 Second hand country... La mintea Cațavencilor... Da, bine, dacă ne mai plângem fraților, poate nu le iau oamenii nici pe astea... Sau poate a fost doar așa o declarație ca să-i enerveze și să le dea apă la moară la fino-ugrici ca să vadă și Europa și lumea ce fac ei dacă se enervează. A doua zi Finlanda a zis că-și ia 64 de F35, cu care țin lejer în șah jumătate de Rusie și jumătate de Europă... Sau poate nu vrem să-i enervăm prea tare pe ruși (în afară de înjurăturile zilnice din media)... Finlandezii sunt și ei în graniță cu rușii.

Au mai discutat ai noștri vreo 6 ani până au luat primele F16. Câte avem acum, 14? Au pornit tot așa, de la vreo 48 iar 6 ani mai târziu au luat primele 9 din Portugalia, în timp ce au lăsat 24 de Mig 29 să ruginească la Constanța sau le-au dat ca piese de schimb polonezilor în timp ce nemții și polonezii le foloseau, "trista moștenire". Eu zic să ne căutăm și un guvern pe net, de la vreo firmă ceva. Cu garanție și manual de utilizare. Poate ne pune cârlanul ăsta tânăr Geoană o pilă la Aspen Institute.

Chiar pe bune, am căutat, n-am găsit guvern de vânzare sau de închiriat (care ar fi oricum ar fi mai bun decât cel de împrumut de acum), dar nu am găsit decât asta... Cum cine să caute guvern pe net? We the people!

Who can tell which is F15 and which is Mig 29?

Two engines, next generation. F22, Typhoon and Rafale. Pyhisical stealth of F22 (and F35) or low radar signature is given by the surfaces that are never perpendicular on radar's direction, reflecting it away (up and down) from emitter (though it becomes vulnerable if enemy "sees" it at certain angles, where it can brieffly "flash" with more radar signature than "clasical" design). Also weapons are kept in a bay, for stealth and aerodynamic reasons giving it supercruise (supersonic flight without afterburners) capabilities at 1.8 mach, vs 1.4, for Rafale giving it more range) and speeds above mach 2 with afterburners (vs 1.8 Rafale).

10:40 There is a thick smoke outside with an pine resin component to mask the smell, an animal droppings component probably other things that makes me tired, nauseated dizzy and will-less. I tried to cover the holes, now the smoke comes from further away. 

10:38 (19) And it wouldn't be fair if i didn't add this. For those who didn't know, built with a fraction of the budget for F22, despite all economic sanctions,

6:15 Last time i went to Jiffy Lube to change oil or first time i ever i did it on this car (after i attempted myself with the pump through the dipstick hole an failed, could only pull half of the oil, because i forgot the engine had to be warmed up to thin the oil) i asked them if they could check the fluid level in my automatic transmission. The guy there told me that i should go to the dealer because the car does not have a dipstick for transmission, "they have a special gauge for it they stick through the fill hole".

Another mechanic told me i should go and ask a mechanic who has "the expensive scanner" cause they can read the level with those.

None of these is true, i found out two days ago that on newer "sealed" transmissions ("newer" is one way to say it, my old Elantra was a 2013 and i was convinced you cannot check ATF level on those) with no dipstick hole there is a hole on the side of the transmission (actually close to front of the car, kinda hard to reach if you don't raise the car) that is at the exact level of transmission fluid when the car is sitting on a flat (level) area like on concrete in a shop, called overfill hole. You clean and remove the plug on that hole like you would with the drain plug and watch what happens. If it flows, barrely, it means the fluid is at the right level. If it doesn't flow, it means you have to add until it flows (barely), etc..

It seems no mechanic i know knows about or is willing to do it and i am just perplexed cause these have been around since at least 2013. I checked videos on youtube and some came with crazy ways to do it. One guy who drained it all (it would not come out all however, because there is some in the torque converter, you have to hook the tranny to a special machine only dealers have) measured it and put back in the same amount, after filing the head of the fill plug until will come out (3 times, after which 90% of the fluid is changed). So today i will attempt to do it myself (again in a shop where i know the owner and he said he would let me do it, it's a 5 minutes job, that to me could be half hour because when i do something i always stop and think of the other things i see around when i looked into an area for the first time). It's even more complicated than that, because at my car the fill hole for the tranny is under some part (flange under shifter lever) that you have to remove first, and if it's low, i will attempt to fill through the same overfill hole with a special funnel i just invented. That is if i can reach to the overflow plug without raising the car. And for some reason i don't understand, i have a gut feeling that i will run into some surprise if i do it.

11:10 Just came back, i didn't even open the plug, just by loosening it i saw fluid coming out, put it back. The gentleman at the shop help me confirm a diagnosis i once had in a transmission shop. Soft transmission mount which i could probably replace myself. Looking for an OEM part(s) online, and i need a full transmission flush, 10 qts, because fluid is kinda brown, consistent with the mileage, which at the dealer cost 210 for the fluid only. OEM Hyundai.

7:53 Living with the ninja, in ninjaland. As i said, they blew dust yesterday. Though i wiped clean the deck, the sill, area above door, dust was still present inside this morning. Unlike yesterday, not much smoke. At 1 AM i plugged with soil mixed with cement two more "mole holes" before i went to sleep. My esophagus was hurting so i took some tea, coconut oil. As i was nauseated (from using the car yesterday, still stinks a bit like rotting bone meal, dog pooh), went for a breath of fresh air, around 6:30.  Also to pick the clamps from the locker. Working again at a catch can, this time won't take that long because i accumulated some expertise. Many "people" (read ninja) around here freshly started their cars in the alley, so i took the upper alley, where a guy was working at a car and started his didgeridoo right after i passed, waking up everybody who was not. I crossed the street, climbed the stairs at the hospital. Many cars coming at that hour. I walked a bit and came back, took the clamps from the locker. Inside i realized the clamps are not good. I just reordered the old ones but i forgot they came then by mistake two sizes smaller, however it was that mistake that allowed those to work. So i looked to return those and get a different size, however delivery date was now changed from next day to one month from now. The guy upstairs started to squeak  on my brain waves so i washed the towel i used last night and put it back wet on top of the filter, while washer would cover the noise of my thoughts. Ate half of ripe avocado to lube my irritated esophagus, made some broccoli (steam boiled with a bit of water on bottom of the ceramic pot for 5 minutes), eat with a bit of chicken and garlic, while eating i opened the door and there was this guy with a green truck in front of building D hitting the truck with something, making a big noise. That noise and irritation at my esophagus from dust, nausea, triggered a dysphagia episode. Felt like i was so full i could never eat again, though still hungry. I siped some tea, painfully, the food went down after about 10 attempts. Had the courage to finish eating.

Any other type of clamps failed. But i remember now, even these wouldn't work (hose would start to leak) unless i added a bit of JB Weld steel reinforced adhesive on the screw to prevent it from unscrewing "by itself". Maybe i should go back to regular clamps and use adhesive from the start.

December 15

1:11 Every once in a while i see in Romanian media informations of things i never knew. Trying to harness the energetic potential of a mountainous area in Romania while keeping the environmental impact to a minimum, they dug, over a 10  years period, 50 km of tunnels. Other similar works are well known to the public, like the 38 km tunnel under English Channel.

Nowadays they are building new galleries for Bucharest metro using autonomous machines.

All in a country with not so much financial and economical power, like today's and yesterday's Romania.

One could question himself, what if they already have tunnels covering most countries, made of course in secret.

We know that Musk, others are trying for years to build demo versions of a project called "hyperloop". Vehicles that could travel in vacuum tunnels at speeds greater than sound. But that project is not going anywhere fast enough. What if is kept in that stage intentionally, just to delay public's perception about the possibilities of those.

To be continued.

12:47 I just want you for my own...

4:44 I got my first smartphone very late... Call it paranoia, whatever. I know what computers can do. Smartphone are basically computers with towers connections, wi-fi, bluetooth, name it. A touch display, a mic and a speaker. Multi-core, fast processors. Android, which is a breed of Linux as operating system.

Had no choice given by Frontier, the provider at the new address, who was delaying installing a landline by 2 weeks after i moved in 2015. So i rushed to Best Buy and bought a couple of cheap, 4 GB prepaid HTC phones, powered by then Virgin Mobile. For convenience, went with them ever since. 35 dollars a months, unlimited talk and text, up to 6 Gigs of 4G data. Barely any room for any app.

How Virgin Mobile turned in the end to Boost Mobile, and Australian firm, it's a different story you can read it here.

On 5th i forgot to... re-boost (that's how it's called prepaying for the next month). Next day i went to the computer and tried to pay, but the bill was now 38. It was then when i got mad and decided it's time to look for a new provider, with an unlocked phone, after i saw commercials with plans starting at 15 dollars (Mint), others. First, i tried to unlock the phone with Boost, but they wouldn't cause the phone though it had more than 12 continuous months of service, had the service interrupted a few months, the number changed and they kept me asking for the old PIN "to prove" and i could not remember.

I don't need much data, just an occasional browsing for a site when i'm not home. So decided to start using (again) my Google Voice number at home on wi-fi and wait until i get something reasonable.

However, after a few searches, i found a plan again at... Boost, with 100 dollars a year (8.33 a months) and 1 gig of data. So i went back to my own vomit and ordered the plan. I said to myself. I won't have to deal with them for a year, if i succeed. But i didn't.

I don't deal with MEID or ICCID things very often so i'm not used to. Didn't realize they didn't check the MEID of my phone when i signed up, just paid and waited for the SIM card.

SIM card came yesterday with USPS (no tracking number though i asked for) and i put it in the new unlocked MOTO 7 i bought on Amazon for 150 bucks (a 2020 model) and tried to activate it on myAccount i created when i paid. However, after typing in lots of MEID and ICCID digits, a number of times, it would not activate. In the end it was Angela who realized there was a 5G mark on the SIM card. Then i remembered seeing something at Boost Mobile "the largest 5G network". (I hate 5G as i hate wi-fi, smartphones and the fact i have to use them). However, my phone was a 4G (within the last few month Boost kept warning about not supporting 3G anymore and customers should buy 5G instead. What happened to 4G? 4G LTE speeds satisfy my needs and both our phones where 4G capable).

So with money paid, i tried my options. There was nothing on MyAccount except my payment history.Live customer support was closed for the day. There was a chat option, not working on the computer (in the end, it worked on my phone today but it was just a bot). Left it for today. This morning i called their customer support number. First a female voice, trying to get my number. I don't have one. Forwarded to a male voice, which shut my conversation when i said i don't have one. Then i tried my old trick, pressing 0 until i hear a human voice. It worked, at first. A guy named Alex listened to my story, asked again for MEID and ICCID and said "Good news, your phone is compatible" and then, "Bad news, we don't have this SIM card in our system". The SIM card they shipped through USPS and came yesterday, without verifying phone's MEID and without a tracking number. In the end i forcibly gave Alex the order number (first screenshot), he asked for a valid calling number, he said he would "escalate" and that was the last i heard from him, just looked on Google Voice call history, there is no call back from him.

Then i tried to use menu options to try again and activate the phone first with the automated system, then with a person. After giving again the MEID number and ICCID number several times, one willing person told me that i should give up and try to dispute the amount with the bank, which seems to be the only valid option right now. They wouldn't spend as much as paying people to handle returns, let the banks do it. After waiting one week and wasting half day today. Crediting their business with 100 dollars for weeks which seems to be one of the purposes of the scam (fraud).

Today afternoon i went and tried to talk with a guy in a physical Boost store in Beaverton. The man who looked again like a Japanese chicano, "would not understand". First i asked for a SIM card compatible with my phone. 10 bucks. I said, ok, but will it work? Do you have a plan? he asked. I said yes, and he said, what's the number, and i said i don't  have one cause the phone is not activated (like i said when i asked for a SIM card), and we went like that for about half hour and i gave up and left. And at one moment, he grabbed my phone to look for the order number (first screenshot) and after handling my phone for while, he said We don't have anything to do with this.

5:19 It's not what they do, it's the synchronization. Today it was Wednesday and the blowers came and though it was raining for a century now, there are still dry areas under the stairs, and places like that and again they blew dust on the deck and sill of the door. So after i started to feel it in my eyes and throat, I went and wiped the dust, lots of red dust came in the water when i rinsed the rag, and exactly when i was done i heard the "man" upstairs climbing the stairs, coming back from his car, releasing more dust from the stairs. Like he did last time. Like he does when i go to cook something, he comes and squeaks the floor above, me, starts the washer, etc.. Wakes me up the second i fall asleep. Home for 5 days in a row as i can remember.

7:49 Numirea lui Florin Roman, o nouă stângăcie a unui președinte de dreapta. Să fie oare ultima?

Sugerat de cine. Oare în România toți miniștrii buni pleacă devreme iar numai cei care acceptă sugestiile rămân? De aia merg treburile așa?

De ce e bine ca în asemenea funcții să fie oameni impecabili, tocmai de asta, pentru a nu putea fi șantajați. O mică verificare, colegii de partid, înainte de numire?

10:57/8:57 Cineva pe fază? S-a oprit roata.

11:14 De fapt asta vroiam să spun mai devreme și n-am terminat. Mahabharata, poemul epic indian, descrie o serie de evenimente care sugerează un război global pe care mulți le consideră istorice (reale). Cu toate astea, încercările de demitizare și plasare în cronism istoric pe care le-am văzut până acum sunt de o naivitate dezarmantă. Există totuși niște elemente de la care se poate porni într-un studiu serios, făcute praf de niște neprofesioniști în diverse forumuri. Dintre, ele, aș vrea să amintesc.

Vimanele. Unele schițe rămase până la noi sugerează secțiuni prin rachete.  

Avioane de luptă hipersonice. Acest basorelief cu o vimana în mijloc arată un conflict între indo-europeni și o rasă cel mai probabil provenind din Australia, care a fost izolată de restul omenirii timp de zeci de mii de ani, numită în Mahabharata "șerpi".

Astika. Astika a fost un copil care a salvat rasa șerpilor de răzbunarea lui Janamejaya. Sunt opinii că ar fi la originea națiunii aztece din America de Sud.

Rețea globală de tuneluri. Rama a fost răpit și dus printr-un tunel în America de Sud.

Svarga loka. Loka în sanscrită înseamnă ceva similar cu loc în română sau location in engleză. Avalon (ava loka), un loc mitic, ava în sanscrită însemnând departe (away în engleză), un sufix găsit în multe toponime din România. Svarga loka în Mahabharata era un fel de rai, locul în care trăia zeul Indra, și se poate identifica cu Sverige (numele Suediei în suedeză).

Piramidele. Piramidele par a fi construite cam în perioada războiului de la Kurukshetra descris în Mahabharata, purtat cu tehnologii primitive. Piramidele par a fi ansambluri multifuncționale care pot fi și arme bazate pe manipularea ionosferei, a zonelor seismice, construite cu știință foarte avansată dar cu tehnologia epocii de piatră, ceea ce arată construcția lor în urma unui conflict devastator care a distrus tehnologia existentă.

Vârsta oamenilor. Și în Biblie, și în mitologia indiană se spune că oamenii, poate înaintea acelui conflict care a contaminat toată planeta, trăiau până la 1000 de ani.

Azi și de multe ori, m-am întrebat. Dacă a existat acea tehnologie avansată, unde sunt urmele? Cât timp durează până la dezintegrarea completă de exemplu a unui automobil? De ce multe din resursele minerale ale planetei sunt intacte? Poate că populația pământului în acea perioadă nu a fost așa de numeroasă ca acum. Poate că era o civilizație ecologică, bazată pe știință foarte avansată care nu folosea intensiv resursele și nu polua ca cea azi. Poate acea cutie neagră a fost plasată în piramidă după acel mare conflict de către șerpi care erau mai avansați și recuperată de Napoleon în timpul campaniei din Egipt, când piramidele erau în mare parte acoperite de nisip. Poate că rasa șerpilor era de fapt niște alieni (probabil condamnați trimiși în exil) care au venit să exploateze resursele pământului, trimițând de exemplu aurul înapoi pe planeta lor originară, folosind acceleratoare liniare de particule.

11:57 Today it was the peak of traffic incidents ever. An unusual number of people driving erratically in parking lots, backing up unexpectedly in my way, things like that. At home, i had 2 one gallon water bottles containing each ounces of oil and dirt mixed with CRC cleaner that i squeezed twice (with engine running) in a vacuum port and then in the throttle and then vacuumed from the bottom of the intake manifold of my "new" Elantra using a thin rubber hose attached to a pump and those are both gone and none of us remembers throwing them out. Had an appointment, went to DMV, finished the application for titling and registering the car, paid for custom plates because i don't wanna have problems like i had with the "sequence" plates with JKB. Got another temporary number, for 4 months, waiting for plates, but can't tape it on the rear windshield because of the radio antenna/heater printed on glass. Last time i put one of those there, when i peeled it out it came with pieces of the printed antenna. So i will put it as the current one on the left rear side windows, the next place recommended. I also ordered parts for a catch can, to prevent oil vapor from PCV getting in the intake.

5:25 Bugetul nu e gata. A început facerea bugetului, e timpul acela din an, emoții induse, dar pentru ce? Fa la la... Pensii, salarii bugetari? Acestea reprezintă mai puțin de jumătate din buget (anul trecut, bugetul a fost aproximativ 400 miliarde). O mică parte, câteva miliarde poate, sunt investiții vizibile pentru ochii lumii. Restul, de până la 400, dispare. Priviți în dreapta. 32 de miliarde la Ministerul Transporturilor, atâtea au fost disponibile anul acesta. Înaintea aprobării noului buget, cereți să se publice execuția bugetară la fiecare minister pe 2021. Puteți vedea pe pagina de fb a domnului Cîțu execuția bugetară la 6 luni, însă în procente. La Transporturi, 73% din 32 împărțit la 2, adică din 16 miliarde. A și o chestie. Dacă execuția se menține la 84% pe tot anul, atunci ar trebui să rămână surplus de 9%, adică diferența, 16 minus 7 (deficitul programat).

A nu, greșesc. O singură căutare după o idee norocoasă și iată am găsit și execuția bugetară! BVC, adică bugetul de venituri și cheltuieli. Ăsta e. Nu e tot bugetul (așa numit consolidat, de 400 miliarde). E doar bugetul de stat (ministerele), cam jumătate din 400, fără asigurări sociale (pensiile), chestiile locale, alte  bugeturi și bugețele. Venituri, 75 miliarde pe semestrul I, în Legea Bugetului, anexa 1 au fost programate 173 de miliarde pe tot anul. Cheltuieli, 59,3. Puțin mai mult decât salariile bugetarilor. Atunci de unde deficit? Și o întrebare și mai deșteaptă. Ce s-au făcut cu banii?

La 6 luni, venituri 75 miliarde, cheltuieli 59. Cât iese? 59,38/75,2, 79 la sută deci nu 84 ca mai jos. Deci de unde deficit de 7%?

Căutând bugetul general consolidat (stat + pensii + locale) am dat de ceva și mai interesant, încă neștiut de mine. Discret, dar nu secret! Priviți, admirați și găsiți sursa deficitului, că eu mă duc să-mi fac o omletă, la mine e 6 dimineața, după care mai dorm (dacă mă lasă greața, sâmbătă dimineața m-am apucat să re-fac frânele de la mașină, pe o ploaie din aia de decembrie, și după ce am desfăcut totul la o roată, cineva cred a venit în apropiere cu un câine bolnav, și-a făcut ăla treaba, acum știu și mă feresc, dar nu am avut ce face, trebuia să termin, am fost expus masiv, încă nu mi-a trecut deși mă tratez cu toate leacurile și tratamentele știute de mine).

A și o chestie. Citeam ieri în Cațavencii, PNRR-ul, un dezastru anunțat, a fost făcut de un singur om, tot așa, după multe chinuri și totuși aprobat așa dintr-o dată de UE?

11:49 The guy upstairs is driving me nuts. It's not that he walks and squeaks, but somehow he does it like following my brain wave, enough to drive you nuts in about 5 minutes. He never leaves during his days off (except maybe if i write here, then he will leave, briefly). Put some food in microwave, i was waiting nearby which i usually don't, saw a big spark in my food, don't know what it was, threw it away. Burning smell came inside the room, had to finally open the door. This morning i went for a short test drive with the car and Angela entered the shower without blocking the door.

1:54 Went for a walk. Same feeling, all people i meet on the streets are again, Hungarian actors. Came back, looked for mail. I was expecting the SIM card for the plan i bought for my new unlocked phone, got instead a package for the guy upstairs, put by mistake there by the mailwoman. Looks like a little book with soft covers. I left it there, i'm gonna add a sticky note on it. First thing, got to know his name which is not identical with the one on the papers from the office that keep falling from his door.

7:39/5:39 Ceaușescu, Daniela Vlădescu.

Ceva adevăr există în toată faza. Un tip din Câmpulung (eu) a fost colegi de generală cu Mircea Baniciu, făcut un revelion cu Daniela Vlădescu, Mircea Baniciu și altul (cel precedent) cu Serghei Mizil, alții, altele, normal, toți cu alte nume. A și unul mai înainte cu Alexandra Ungureanu (Shania Twain). I always thought this song was sang by Gloria Estefan and she was saying "Let's hear it from the boy". Whatever.

9:28 Oh Macron!

9:47 I believe it was only after they watched OBDII data in real time (injectors opening time, ultimately real time fuel consumption) they realized one major way in which a car could save fuel.

Until recently, on an automatic transmission when you were releasing gas pedal, the torque converter was disengaging and the engine was going down to idle while the car was running on inertia. Then the torque converter would engage again when pressing gas pedal. Besides the small but present risque of loosing vacuum thus power brake in the unlikely but statistically real possibility of disconnected engine to shut down for diverse reasons, the engine had to use fuel to idle, and that is up to 20% of maximum use at full engine power (by my observations reading real time data on Torque app, name coincidence, unrelated to what i'm talking about torque converters, requires a bluetooth connector that costs a few dollars).

So what they did was reprogram the transmission to keep torque converter engaged while cutting injector time to 0. Car's inertia would also keep engine turning with nothing coming in or out of it, usually at 2000 rpm instead of 750 at idle.  Not a significant source of engine wear, especially because there's no air or fuel coming in and no power output. However, for those seconds the car won't use any fuel as opposed to idling like in the old setup. Very similar to a manual when you release gas. (Up until these days i thought the difference in mpg between manual and automatic was by use of hydraulic, lossy, torque converter. Not entirely true). Yes it feels differently when driving, but can get used to. No difference on cruise control.

Downturn. It adds to car's inertia when breaking, torque converter should be disengaging when pressing brake pedal.

Another thing, most surprising but not to my 14 years old mind when i saw the first time brake pads and calipers and discs. Then i could not understand what is moving brake pads away from the rotor when releasing brake pedal. The answer, back then and always, was nothing. There was nothing that would separate pads from rotor. Supposedly, by releasing pedal, pressure in the hydraulic circuit would go to 0 and, by not having any force on caliper's piston, there would be no breaking force which roughly, is true. So back then i educated my mind to believe so. Aha, how stupid me!

However. In the event of having an air bubble in the system, which would expand when releasing brake pedal, the pressure would not be totally 0. Also, by inertia, when steering, and due to vibration and other factors, pressure of the pad to the rotor would not be always 0. Tiny but big enough to make for a few percents in fuel economy, depending on driving situations. So they finally added springs like i saw on my 2018 Elantra (and forgot to put back a couple of times which led me to re-do the whole thing, like yesterday during the storm) that would keep pads apart (maybe not if you had air bubbles big enough to beat those springs when expanding). (Yes there is a tiny hesitation in braking when comparing to non-spring situation on the same car, but again i think you can get used to it). Not talking about the situation when you have dust (mostly coming from new ceramic pads) settling on the clips where the pads are sliding to back and forth and that dust prevents your pads from totally releasing pressure on the rotors.

These two "little" things, that could have been fixed no problem decades ago and cost nothing, added together, lead to an increase of mpg by maybe 5-10 miles per gallon. What else?

11:30 "I'll huff and i'll puff". I think there's a lesson to be learned from this video. BTW, where are the tornado safe concrete rooms Bill Clinton wanted to be made in every house in the tornado alley?

I believe a house "3D printed" out of concrete that could be "laid" in a few days, which BTW is one continuous piece of concrete, would withstand a tornado.

5:19 Looks like Captain Pandemics to me...
