Repent, the End is Near!

This CTF game was written in the Godd™ Engine. It is not currently available, but other equally apocalyptic game layouts are — come to a morning meeting and ask about them.

Luckily, I have a remedy for all this political freakout “civil war” bullshit brought on by the asshole politicians in Washington and elsewhere — I plan to throw my hands into the air, and promptly and unequivocally, give up.

I mean it. Give up. Why struggle against that kind of relentless sandpaper? I have a secret “wonder-weapon”, with which to defeat them all in a single swoop.

It’s when political shit gets flung direcctly into the faces of the public, which you’re seeing now from all sides of the political spectrum — that I lay down my sword and shield right by the river-side, and take up my Ultimate Weapon — humor.

It might be too great a step, definite is cause for alarm, and that’s why I created a set of fun wearable gifts that really says what it’s all about, Alfie.

That’s right. I created a line of gifts and personal wearables featuring a color graphic of an empty Classified Folder”, which is actually the cover of my graphic novel, “SlimeWars”, now available as an e-book and audio book recording.

So I decided to create strange and unusual “Empty Classified Documents” folder wearable and useable products on zazzle — things that would be likely to be wanted by you, and I hope I’m right. If not, it costs me nothing to try, just moving a few electrons around, is all. Continue reading →

Handling The Between-Customers-State

Practicing guitar is always an option. Play softly.

If you’re operating a shop, storefront, booth, kiosk or busking station, you’ll want to know what to do with those interminable waiting periods between customers, and there will be plenty of them, believe it.

Many retailers and service personnel lose a LOT of precious productivity, and when you own your own business and want to be your own boss — well, you’ll have a LOT of time on your hands.

If you’re ever in a department store where customers are not actually engaged in sales, you’ll see the salespeople adjusting things, dusting things, re-arranging things, pricing things — basically, doing something, anything, to appear busy.

It’s widely believed, and perhaps it’s true, that if customers see salespeople loafing about, they won’t buy a thing, which certainly matches my extensive experience in retail.

Heck-darn, when you’re talking Retail, you’re talking Planet Earth. Why, back home, we NEVER pay retail — nobody pays retail anywhere except here on Planet Earth.

Humans of Planet Earth are so ignorant, they call it “bartering”, not “bargaining”, when you make offers and counter-offers.

Bartering is where you trade a laying hen for a carpenter’s work fixing your wagon, and I don’t mean that figuratively at all. Continue reading →

The Next Step

Now that you’ve joined the Ashram for $30 a month and gotten a place in the gallery — either a cubby at $100 per month or a booth for $200 a month or both — it’s time to look at the program.

You are now part of a team.

That team operates in the subtle plane, but manifests clearly and tangibly in the gallery as a group of artists and artisans.

The art varies widely, as does the crafting. Materials and methods are very much unique to each of the experienced artists of our Grass Valley Graphics Group, and that creates a lot of excitement in visitors to our space.

Because we specialize in miniature works of art, our walls are filled with lots of interesting things to see. People tend to stay longer in the gallery precisely because there are so many paintings, drawings, sketches, embossings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, rings and more, and the longer they linger the more likely they’ll shop, meaning you get the sale.

How the support boils down is that whenever we have some surplus, it can be applied to promotion and publicity, but keep in mind that money can’t buy you love, and you can quote me on that! Continue reading →

Carry $100 Million Dollars in Pure GOLD!!!

mainImg — RARE Tibetan Thangka on a Watch, 6 colors, ONLY $89.99!!!

You can carry up to $100 Million Dollars in PURE GOLD with my “virtual gold” Money Magnet, and avoid the muscle-strain of lifting and carrying several dozen tons of gold everywhere you go.

If you want some pocket-room, you won’t carry gold. $100 Million in gold would be awfully heavy, but not if it were in IMAGE form rather than FORM form.

In short, a photo of $100 Million dollars in pure gold would weigh a LOT less than the gold itself. Anyone who’s ever tried to lift an actual 1 Kg. gold brick will know what I mean.

Now, $100 Million Dollars in Gold, even in photographic form, if properly embued, will make a powerful Money Magnet. As a matter of fact, $12,500 in PURE GOLD will work really well as a Money Magnet, and I happen to have a photo of that much gold in one single lump, so let’s get started with that, so we can attract enough money to keep on shopping — that is the point, you know, shop ’til you drop.

RULE #1: CAPITAL IS CAPITAL.

He’ll Change. He Promised He’ll Change.

“He’ll Change”, women say about their boyfriend or husband, they all tell me that he promised to change, and even enrolled in a therapy group, but they don’t change — they never do. They never have to find continual accommodation to the spoken and unspoken demands of their “life partner”, although relationships these days seldom run into anywhere like “life”.

Women change readily and rapidly, from lover to lover, adjusting to every whim and mood of a new boyfriend, and they have no problem doing so, but they can’t easily end a relationship.

A woman can learn to serve just about any man, and most women are more than willing to be a Man Pleaser, but as pleasing as you might be, the guy eventually tires of you, generally during the first minute of contact. Man-Pleasing is an easy way to earn a living, and if you can keep it up (joke intended) you can maintain The Nest at least until the kids leave home.

Woman all know that after that first smashing boiling ripping roiling minute of “First Contact”, things roll downhill, entropy sets in, and the relationship goes numb. You have to constantly remind the man that he’s in a relationship, and it’s a constant battle between you and the hundreds of younger women he encounters every day.

If you want to maintain Peace In The Household, you’re going to teach yourself to overlook certain things, like the smell of perfume on his shorts, or the stubborn stain on the fly of his pants.

The only thing keeping most relationships going is the cost of lawyers and the threat of joint custody. Continue reading →
