We Will Bonk You!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1sf0PvLCgg&feature=youtu.be

This is just one of over 300 new thumbnails featuring Team Fortress 2 gameplay screenshots, taken over a period of some 8 years, mostly with the eGO clan. The video has so far achieved 4,974 views, and counting.  When I play a Scout, I typically use the mackerel to finish off folks — it takes a double hit to kill, and at the same time to grab the INTEL and run through an entire enemy team to capture it. The above screenshot shows what happens when two BLUE TEAM hide in my base and I’m running the Intel to cap — I just gotta fish-kill them both, as I did here, with the help of sexystudman, the Intel Room Engie at the time. Oh, did I mention that you can click this button to play it? I recommend clicking on the TITLE, so you’ll go into youtube and register as a view and a like and a comment and a share, right???

Enriching Your Video Assets

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm5pqp0aPIE

The idea of video asset enrichment is to recapture lost effort in the form of improperly constructed video postings, and that means going back into the title line, the description lines and the all-important tags, without which you should not leave home, you bet your sweet assets you shouldn’t!

A Remedy For FEAR!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpLuDcU-vvM&t=48s

Fear is Your Friend

Sure, there’s a remedy for fear — actually, several. One is to ignore the fear, just carry on as if that crippling debility wasn’t happening. Another way to deal with fear is to confront it. Still another method of handling fear is to overcome it.

I recommend none of the above. Fear is a wild animal, to be tamed but never civilized. There is really only one way to handle fear, and that is to thoroughly master it, make it yours, own it.

The best way to own something is to actually own it.

Oh, I know that sounds ridiculously self-evident, but it isn’t, and you mustn’t dismiss it with a toss of the head, especially if you have no neck.

That condition is not as rare as you might think. If you travel 1 mile over the speed limit anywhere even somewhat rural, and you’ll run into law officers, generally named “Bubba”, and they have no neck, as the Ghostbusters described the New York official. But what about fear??? Continue reading

LeslieAnn Roasts Mark Meadows

So how in the world do you pull off something like this? Just hours after the news broke and the Mark Meadows scandal, which I’ll explain momentarily, hit the shit.

First of all, you’ve got to have a concept. In this case, it’s a simple matter — Cummings had Meadows’ back instantly at great personal risk. He stood up for Meadows when he was called a racist, which by the way, he emphatically is, and I can prove it. Continue reading

Ignore Trump As Best You Can

You’ll have to learn to compartmentalize Trump so you can concentrate on your work, and you’ll need to work twice as hard to stay off road repair with the Donald Trump National Labor Work Force — all dictators like to lock people up and torture them, didn’t you know?

So if you want to avoid detention and slavery, you might want to sharpen up your marketing skills and get enough wherewithal to lift yourself and your family out of danger.

This is not the first time Americans have learned to fear their President, but it surely will be the last, especially when America gets split up three ways, into #Pacifica, which is a combo of the 13 western states, #AmericaTheBeautiful, which is the midwestern Bible Belt, and the east coast nation of #GreaterNewYork and #NewNewWashington, both of which are described in detail in my book, “SlimeWars”, written over 50 years ago, predicting everything that’s happening today.

Quick Take a Peek!

I’ve been making these square colorful and provocative “buttons” or “click bait” all night long, and now I’ve run out of time to do a serious blog, so I’ll post as many of this night’s work as I can in the few minutes to spare before breakfast and the ICW — sounds like a 70s tv show, doesn’t it?

Okay, so the idea is to make the button attractive “eye candy” and to draw the victim — I mean “client” — in even further, by the arguably brilliant move of adding compelling and provocative text, making it inevitable that the client will press the “follow” button on your IG account sometime soon.

Gosh, if they even get so far as to glance at your button, you’re ahead of most in the game. You want to set up a question or an inquiry that leads the client at least two clicks further, getting them to your homepage or target page.

Whew. So here are a few examples. Please do not use them — I plan to. My object is to show you a few ideas, and then you can run on your own. Note that, at the moment, I’m not using anything except the screenshot capability of my browser in Second Life and, yes you have permissions to use those snappers — they thrive on you sharing them!

One Post a Day

I could be posting on InstaGram all day long — my creative writing skills don’t crash into writer’s block, because I know the secret of fighting writer’s block.

What is the remedy for writer’s block? Poverty.

Actually, even though that might be funny, it’s very true. Necessity is the Mother of All Evil — maybe I don’t have that Old Wise Saying exactly right, but the truth is in there somewhere.

The simple fact is that there is a really great secret to breaking writer’s block, and it involves the PLS Technique.

You simply put a graphic in front of you, and write some compelling copy with its inspiration. That’s all there is to it. Just write to the picture.

You want to write wonderful stories and amazing and astounding fantasies and mythologies? Forget about descriptive dialogue, narrative passages and fanciful delusionary visions, because nobody has the time for a novel anymore, unless it’s spoken word, and even then, you can expect them to go for the Classic Comic version.

First of all, they MIGHT listen to an audio book, but it’d be on their mobile device, and that limits what they’re doing and where they are. In short, the Age of the Novel is long gone.

So What Next?

“History is prologue”, as my friend Willie Shakespeare once said just as the Spanish fleet was sailing up the Thames and the queen was striking a deal with Montmorency.

So what the f*ck happened to movies when television arrived? What happened to radio when television arrived? What happened to all of that when the smartphone arrived?

Everything is simplified now, right down to the cellphone, the smartphone, the mobile device.

Does that make it easier to deal with life and cope with the necessities of the day? Far from it — the cell phone and social media make things a lot tougher than they have to be.

Radio started out uplifting and educational, and within a couple of MONTHS from the first commercial radio broadcast ever, in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, on Election Day, November 2, 1920, when the first ever Presidential race results were announced over the air, Warren G. Harding over James M. Cox.

Interestingly, Harding totally ignored Cox and went right after Wilson, calling for a “Return to Normalcy”, which will be the battlecry once again in this coming 2020 election.

Well, never you mind the millions of dead. I’ll go into the kitchen and put up a nice kettle of boiling hot water for the tea.

The Age of the Novel is long gone, say I — and nevermore to return. Information is in slugs and bits and chunks and bytes.

Newsbytes. Fake News. Headline News. Snap. Crackle. Pop.

Make mine a chocolate malted, tarbender. Say, ossifer, how about seeing your way clear to not giving me a traffic ticket? Why, I’ve bought and sold more judges than you could violate the civil rights of citizens in a single day.

Go figure that one out.

So what you’re faced with on InstaGram and FaceBook and all them social media frenzy guys is that you have to come up with — not a compelling story, but a compelling HEADLINE.

A single word, two words, maybe three, that tells the whole story in a nutshell, grabs the attention, whets the appetite and lures the reader onward toward the “follow” button, which is the whole point.

Why be on InstaGram at all?

The only reason you could possibly endure the miserable conditions and restrictions that you’ll find on InstaGram is that you want something.

Maybe not for yourself, but you want something.

I’m trying to build a base of “followers” on InstaGram because you’re not visible on IG unless you have 10,000 followers.

Why stop there?

How about a million followers? The upside is very clear — with a million followers, you have a voice, you reach a lot of folks, and the percentage of response will yield a sufficient number to get things done.

What things done? Okay, be precise about your IG goals, and be specific and on-subject. What exactly do you want to accomplish on InstaGram?

If you have no specific purpose other than personal, you’re not using IG in a work way — no shame there, it’s just a fact.

My purpose for being on IG is simply to get a Godd™ Particle Pendant around the neck of every man, woman, child and pet on this sad little mudball, with the idea in mind of reducing the suffering.

Wearing the Godd™ Particle has a profound effect, but you’ll never convince someone of that until they’ve worn one.

Getting a Godd™ Particle on someone through the internet is going to be a bit tough until the 3D printers are up to the task, about a week and a half from now.

My purpose also includes getting a Bardo Band SlapBand Bracelet around the wrist and/or ankle of everyone inclined to use AND WEAR the American Book of the Dead, putting you in constant communication in the Bardos and beyond.

The idea behind the “followers” button is that it turns on a buzzfeed from my IG page to their front page, thus conveying a powerful Blessing every day, as they receive my daily IG posts.

It also keeps us in touch. Got a question? You know where to get hold of me. Ask me anything on-subject, ie; The Work, Social Media Marketing, Community Building.

Brick & Mortar

Please note that if you were selling donuts, you’d have to sell hundreds a day, and that means attracting hundreds of people into your bakery EVERY SINGLE DAY for the rest of your life.

You’ll be standing there waiting for cake and cookie customers until you drop. What a prospect.

It could be a whole lot more productive than that.

If you have a store, you stand around and wait for customers to come through the door, right?

Wrong.

You should be spending every hour in the shop online marketing things through a variety of online outlets, depending on the goods.

You could also be working to expand your IG population with DM chats, posts and searches.

One great hustle — I mean strategy — is to follow anyone suggested by The Machine as worthy of note, then click onto their page and COMMENT on something they’ve posted.

Chances are they’ll return the “follow” with a “follow” of their own on your page, see?

Another great strategy is to tell your followers to go to my page and hit the “follow” button, but tell them why.

Note that I’ve asked for an ACTION STEP — follow me on InstaGram.

What do you get for following me?

I’m offering a FREE PRIZE — One Genuine Daily Blessing — which comes to them every day in the form of one of my posts.

As long as they don’t “unfollow” me, they receive those Blessings. I don’t advise stopping, but hey, it’s your choice.

It’s all very transactional, but remember that I do have a reputation in the Gestalt community related to transpersonal psychology when I was director at Cowichan in 1972-73, but that’s another story.

EJ Gold and Claudio Naranjo in private discussion, 1974.

I note that my friend and ally Claudio Naranjo has passed. He is in the company of a number of his Tibetan friends.

He’s doing just fine, and is well on his way to his next task. Your readings and prayers are very appreciated and add to the force of the already proceeding prayers and guidings, although for Claudio, it’s not about guidance — he knows the way.

So Blessings one day, then Healing the next, but then what???

Every day I gotta come up with a new graphic and a new backstory, all in 125 words or less, replete with hashtags and supporting data.

That’s a daunting task even for the greatest advertising copywriter of them all — Daryl Stevens over at McMann & Tate Advertising Marketing, Design & Sales.

Sure, that’s them characters from the television series “Bewitched”, but it’s also very real. There are advertising agencies out there just like McMann & Tate, and I worked for a bunch of them.

As an account executive, I dealt with the most singularly stupid creature on the face of the Earth — the Network Vice President.

First of all, there are about fifty “Vice Presidents” — that’s doubletalk for “Management Trainee”, and they’re totally scared witless out of their socks by every little puff of wind.

If you can get a decent script past them, you’re unique — it’s never been done, but forget about scripts, forget about story, forget about attention span.

It’s all about No attention span, and that means social media.

If you really miss your JUNIOR year at high school, you’re going to love social media. It has all the attraction and romance of a night at a bus or railway station, and the clash and clamor can drive you nuts if you’re the slightest bit psychic-sensitive.

Ouch, right?

But that IS where everyone has gone. They’re not on eBay, this I can promise you. I was a premium “Platinum Seller” on eBay until everybody ditched eBay and went over to social media, notably FaceBook at first.

Now, of course, FaceBook is predictably “almost dead”, and InstaGram has taken the lead, but it is soon to drop to second place as Snapchat comes out of fourth place into the front position.

They’re at the far turn now, and we’ll see how it all comes out when they reach the Finish Line, which won’t be in the too distant future.

In short, hold onto your hat, and wear your hat at home.

Always be ready to bug out, especially if there’s a knock at the door. It used to be that we’d go over to the door and open it to see which friendly neighbor is there, but now, we step to one side and demand, “Who goes there?”.

Make sure that they show you some ID before you agree to open the door. Oh, you probably need a door peeker device so you can see through the door.

If you’re expecting ICE, I’d move to another state, and fast. If you’re a citizen, there’s no guarantee you’ll be safe from rousting, unless you happen to be, well, you know — white.

MAGA — Make America White Again. I never knew the “G” was pronounced like a “W”. Best way to get votes is to give away “free” hats — hats that cost about a dollar to make overseas, and that work as a walking “sandwich board” advertisement that people are willing to wear on their heads, haw, haw, haw!!!

Well, marketing and branding ARE the New Reality. Learn or Die. Wither thou goest, I shall also wither.

Shot Heard Round the World will ring the doorbell once again, and soon!

Ben Franklin said it best!

Waste not, want not. Penny saved is a penny earned. He that lies down with dogs shall wake up with fleas.

Gosh, I hope that doesn’t happen to all those Republicans and toadies who got in bed with Trump. That’s a lot of flea powder.

May I recommend a Fancy Flea Collar for Trump Associates?

I have one in mind — well, not actually a flea COLLAR, but how about a cat collar tag or dog collar tag, or a horse collar tag?

I make “Healthy Pet” collar tag flash drives for your dog, cat or other pet — each collar tag contains an entire QUANTUM PET WORLD full of healing and protection prayers and blessings, and quantum magic effects to help your pet feel wonderful and wanted — keeps you in CONSTANT CONTACT with your pet when you wear your Wavelength Matching Godd™ Particle Pendant in its beautiful brushed metal case — it is a work of art!

Okay, we’re almost at breakfast time, just enough to maybe hang an IG post for today!

See You At The Top!!!

How To Trigger & View a Past Life Memory — PLM

NO PHOTO — nobody took shots at the fair.

In order to understand the phrase, “You’ve been around the block a billion times, and you’re still here to tell the tale”, you need a much bigger memory footprint than just one single lifetime or, more commonly, scattered random bits & pieces of unrecognized and unacknowledged memories, mostly semi-vivid recollections of events that took place in Safeway Supermarkets, Starbuck’s Drive-Throughs and assorted family events and birthday parties, although by no means all of them, your own included.

You’d have a very hard time constructing an abbreviated daily diary of last week, let alone the whole of your life. As a matter of fact, I’ll bet dollars to donuts that you can’t reconstruct your activites on a year-by-year basis from the time you were 3 years old (more than enough time to notice your environment) to the present time.

Past-Lives Scrapbooking

 

My Last Plane Crash

I’ve come up with an oddball but terrifically effective method for triggering past life stuff — lacking any other name for it, I’ve called it Past-Life Scrapbooking. The general idea is that I provide you with a page that needs filling out with text, photos, various small items, etc., just as you would do with any other scrapbook. The only difference is that the photos are not of your present life, but of other lives you’ve lived in the past. How it works is that by actively putting the scrapbook together, you trigger the vintage memories.

If you’re asking, “Why would I want to do this?”, you haven’t been paying attention. I’ll give you a “short-form” answer…
