Power Outage at the 49ers v. Steelers Monday Night Football Game.

December 19th, 2011


Do I really need to repeat it again…??!?


Rebuild the Nation’s Infrastructure!!!!!


During tonight’s Monday Night Football game featuring the San Francisco Forty-Niners hosting the Pittsburgh Steelers – a game which is on-going as I enter this blog, the stadium in San Francisco suffered an electrical power outage. The game was put on hold, or delayed, with about twelve plus minutes left in the second quarter of the first half. I’m not exactly sure how long the outage lasted as I had stepped away from watching the game for a few minutes, but the delay was at least significant to the flow of the game – without a doubt. (Subsequently I found the delay to be reported as 16 minutes. See the link below.)

The ESPN on-air personnel initially said after the power outage that there are two main power feeds to the stadium and one had not been working (throughout the game, I assume) and the second feed was being over-taxed or over-worked and blinking in and out of service (or something like that) - as there had also reportedly been a power outage before the game as well. Upon further investigation, the ESPN reporter somewhere in the stadium then reported that officials are being quiet as to what was the actual cause of the power outage – and quiet about the apparently embarrassing power outage in general.

[Aside from the fact of what’s the problem with the agencies and commissions of the State Government of California… which is a whole ‘nother issue and somewhat of another pet peeve of mine (as all long time readers of my blogs might be aware)… a pet peeve which might now also include the Government for the City of San Francisco (or PG&E or whomever)…]

PS. And it's like… they wonder how to create jobs to get the nation out of this latest depression?!? It’s all nearly absurd - as evidenced by this power failure on Monday Night Football!

Too Many Sinkholes, Water Main and Gas Main Breaks

December 13th, 2011

Lately, there have been so many water main breaks, gas main breaks, and sinkholes reported nearly everywhere across the U.S. nation that I can't even attempt to keep up blogging on those which I hear about. So the matter is simple:

REBUILD THE NATION'S INFRASTRUCTURE SYSTEMS OR IT APPEARS THE TIME IS AT HAND TO SERIOUSLY CHALLENGE THE ELEVENTH AMENDMENT WHICH WOULD THEN MAKE THE GOVERNMENTS ACROSS OUR LAND LIABLE FOR THEIR DYSFUNCTIONAL PARADIGMS.

A Naked Promise

December 6th, 2011


A naked promise: Another odd concept as well as odd terminology from our society.


“It is said that when one receives a naked promise and such promise is not kept, he is no worse off than he was before the promise is made. He gave nothing for it, loses nothing by it, and upon its breach he suffers no recoverable damage.”

Stonestreet v. Southern Oil Co., 226 N.C. 261, 263, 37 S.E.2d 676, 677 (1946).

Further, “A bare promise, made without consideration, creates no legal rights and imposes no legal obligations. Its fulfillment is a matter of grace or favor on the part of the one making the promise.”

No Utility Company Necessary….. for Free Electricity!

December 1st, 2011


If I were to attempt to reveal to the world how free electricity was available from the atmosphere, would Edison and Tesla turn over in their graves? Or…, would they be happy?

The average household in the U.S. typically uses five kilowatts of electricity a day. If I were to reveal how such an amount of electricity was freely available from the atmosphere, would the utility companies attempt to stifle my words? No solar, no coal, no wood, no natural gas, no propane, no ethanol, no methanol, no wind, no additional source of energy would ever be necessary. No infrastructure would be required either! No pollution or negative externalities of any kind….


JUST FREE ELECTRICITY FROM THE ATMOSPHERE….!!!


Would I be hated by the ‘energy producers’ and utility companies for telling everyone how to get this free electricity from the atmosphere?

Free energy is there, everywhere!! It surrounds us! Have no doubt!
