LRSD finds even more to waste money on

I don't write very often, but when I see the DUMBEST people in the world blowing money on some stupid consultant to come in and tell them that everything they're doing is OK?! What the fuck is that? Hey, LRSD school board--YOU ARE ALL IDIOTS! I've been to an LRSD board meeting, and it resembles a monkey fucking a football. That man-beast in charge of the board...I've seen better heads on a corpse! There's not enough collective intelligence in the entire board to tie a velcro shoe! Jesus tapdancing Christ...this makes me want to go out and just go postal on the entire board! How goddamn stupid can you be?! NINETY THOUSAND DOLLARS to work 36 days A YEAR??!! Are you fucking KIDDING me?

You ass clown waste of space. Katherine Mitchell--you need to be drawn and quartered for all of the money you've wasted. You should be thrown to a pack of angry pit bulls for being so arrogant as to drive that district into the ground! YOU ARE A WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT. Please...do the world a favor...die in a fire.

One door closes...

So, my last day at UALR is "officially" tomorrow; however, I haven't been 'working' there since before spring break. Why? Because, as a system administrator, they know that I have the POTENTIAL to be quite destructive--access to sensitive areas of the campus in the wrong hands can be devastating. Fortunately (for them), I'm not a malicious-minded person. I just left quietly, utilizing the time they provided for me--with pay--to find other gainful employment. Thus begins the next chapter...

I begin working at St. Vincent Hospital in just a couple of weeks as a part of the Client Computing team. The kicker? I make a full 20% more than I was making at UALR! And the best part is, not only do I have a supervisor who's ego will fit within his own person, I don't have to listen to the ignorant asshats bicker like 5-year-olds in faculty meetings! I've never seen such an open display of pathetic egocentric-ism in my LIFE! Contrary to what these morons believe, the world does NOT revolve around them! There are billions more just like them, and with the exception of a small handful, their egos are self-contained. So, I guess the old adage that "When one door closes, another one opens" certainly holds true here. I just thank GOD that I'm getting out of there with my sanity.

Finally, my son graduates from Air Force Basic Training on May 7, and it looks like I won't be able to attend due to the timing with my new job. The AFB is in San Antonio, which is about a 9-10 hour drive. The graduation events begin on May 6 (a Thursday), with the commencement being held on May 7. Missing two days within a week of beginning a new job doesn't look too good...so it may just have to go without my attendance. As much as it pains me to miss, I am hopeful that he knows I'll be there in spirit, even if I'm not in body.

That's it for now. Until next time...

Long time, no see

It's been quite a while since my last post, so I thought I'd take a few minutes to jot some things down. SO much has happened since my last post, it may take a while!

First and foremost, I have re-established a relationship with my son. He left for Air Force basic training at Lackland AFB on March 9. While at the MEPS station in Little Rock, the entire Porter clan showed up for the same reason I was there. However, after Trevor's swearing in and his subsequent departure, I asked the entire group to speak with me outside--in an attempt to try to repair the cluster fuck they had made of my children's' lives. They shunned my daughter because she 'chose' to live with me and showered my son with gifts and material shit to buy his silence. Silence from what, you ask? I would love to say it, but social etiquette keeps me from it. Venture to say...it wasn't anything good.

So anyways, after making my request, the red-headed pig slut, Charlotte, stomped out, saying she had nothing to say to me or "that girl", referring to my daughter--her niece. Her father then began spouting out obscenities and garbage and posturing like he was some bantam rooster. But, as my ex-wife and her sister, Robin, began shouting at them, it became clear how it had all played out. Trevor's head was a mess because of the hatred spewed forth from those obscenely overweight, useless protoplasmic asshats. He couldn't win, regardless of what he did. Now that he's moved on (and moved OUT), that seems to have changed almost overnight. This is truly a great thing. And because karma has been on my side lately, I shan't wish bad things on those who choose to remain angry. I believe that their karma will take care of them in fine fashion. Then again, God has pity on fools and drunks...and these morons don't drink...

Next development is, UALR has decided to release me from employment due to budget cuts. They can build a $30 million building, but can't pay my measly salary? I smell a rat, and its name is Obama...but I digress. I have some very hot leads going on, one of the best being at St. Vincent Hospital--right down the street! My potential supervisor would be my mentor, Don Rehak, a guy that I spent a tremendous amount of time with, picking his brain and learning everything I could about computers. He got me started and showed me the ropes in an 'intern' sort of fashion, paying me a meager $50 a week. But, the benefits of that internship have kept me afloat for the last 15 years. My hopes are that it works out and I'll once again be working with him. More on that in my next post--advising as to where I landed.

Other than that, we're just status quo. The remodeling job has now gone on for two full years, leaving a portion of the house in disrepair for the entire time. The kitchen is 97% complete, the dining room is about 90% complete, but Madison's bedroom is left--and it's the least work of all! Money is the factor, and unstable work status isn't conducive to running up a big tab at Lowe's. Once I'm settled back into employment, we'll wrap it up and move on to the next project. Gads...two years?!

We recently celebrated our 5-year anniversary on February 27, and a half-dozen March birthdays, including Leslie's on March 31. It's been a busy time, even if it doesn't seem like it! So, with that said, I'll close out. Summer is coming, and so are the $400 electric bills. Oh, joy...

Until next time...

The end of 2009

Wow...what a year 2009 has been. Lots of 'big ticket' celebs die, the US is being led to Socialism by an inept and embarrassment of a President, and, perhaps best of all, the Colts are rolling at 14-0. An odd mixture of events there, but that's the way I see it.

It's no secret that Obama, hereafter referred to as 'The Exalted One', was put into office by a bunch of ignorant lemmings that knew nothing more than he was something other than Bush. Would McCain be a change? Sure...he's not Bush. However, because of the media and Oprah, we have this idiot running arguably the most powerful country in the world. And he's doing a very poor job. His performance ratings are dropping with each passing day, and those who worried about McCain being a 'war monger' now see that The Exalted One is sending even more troops to Iraq and Afghanistan. War monger? Hmmm...who's the war monger now?

Karma brings it home

If you're coming here looking for trouble, try again.

First off, if you have a beef, you take it up with ME. Leave my lovely bride out of it.

Second, there is this thing called the Bill of Rights. Please take note:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

In other words, BACK OFF. I can say what I want, so long as it is TRUTHFUL. With that said...here's the post:


OK, so anyone that is close enough to me knows that we've been in the midst of a lawsuit against a real asshole that Leslie worked with. In a fit of sexism-induced rage, he pushed her out of the way, sending her sprawling across the floor, and injuring her. The attorney had been paid. The date for trial had been set. We were simply waiting. Then, it happened...

Dr. Chukwuma Justin Obiagwu, 55, of Pine Bluff died Wednesday, Oct. 28, 2009.
Chukwuma Obiagwu
He was born in Umuobom, Nigeria to Lolo Obiagwu of Nigeria and the late Nze Obiagwu.
His survivors include sons, Nnaemeka Obiagwu of Lindsborg, Kan., and Rodney Seals of Pine Bluff; brothers, Chikaodi Obiagwu, Chijoke Obiagwu, Ignatius Obiagwu, John Obiagwu, Obinna Obiagwu, all of Nigeria and Kingsley Obiagwu of Koln, Germany; sister, Oluchi Obiagwu of Nigeria; three grandchildren.
His services will be Thursday from 10:30 a.m. at Brown Funeral Home of Pine Bluff by Rev. Kerry Price Sr. at 10:30 a.m. Burial will be in Forest Lawn Cemetery.
Visitation will be today from 5-7 p.m. at Brown Funeral Home of Pine Bluff.
The family will be at 507 Golf View Drive, Pine Bluff.

The son of a bitch died. He DIED! Now, we're out $2500 for an attorney, not to mention a year and a half of this bullshit court litigation and our medical expenses. So, rest in HELL, you son of a bitch. May you get all the pain and suffering you deserve.
