FYI... Moving back to my old blog.
I've decided to go back to RandomizedRadio.com for my blog... Sooner or later, I'll be deleting this one. Randomized Radio just seems to have a broader scope, and feel to it. I was trying to create way to many blogs, in my opinion, and burnt myself out on it. I still enjoy to blog, but I think that I'd be better off just keeping two going. Pimping The Penguin, for the geeky stuff, and Randomized Radio for the things that aren't so techy, more social, or political, or what have you.
There's just to much data overload for everyone, and Lakewood has some of the finest focused blogs, such as Seeing Things, and Daily Snap. They do a really fine job. - I've got to make point to comment on them more often, myself. :)
If you happen to be one of the select few that have the RSS feed on, you don't have to do anything, if you're using the RandomizedRadio Feedburner feed.
I just have to re-link it back to the way it was before I moved this feed into it.
No biggie.

Red Vines vs Twizzlers
I think that the picture covers it...
I don't like Twizzlers, and they're not Licorice, and neither are red vines.

Testing Blogger from my phone
I'm just sitting here, in a big truck getting a load of sugar, on a Friday evening. I was reading a post on G+ by Popey and Wordpress. I think that blogger has a lot to offer versus word press.
I'm also using the text to speech program in android. to see how all it catches my words in verbage correctly. as you can see it still needs some work.

Crash Bang Boom! Musings of an aging fart.
I was on twitter, the other day, and @krystlechung said...

Just ran 5 miles. I feel like I'm going to die. Right now.
@krystlechung It'll keep you healthy, and not fat like me...
It got me thinking about a summer job I (and my would be brother in law) had when I was 16... I used to ride my bicycle 14 miles down from Angwin, CA to Calistoga, CA, to do yard work in a Mobile Home park all day, and then ride home. Man, I was bushed when I got home. I couldn't eat enough food to keep up with all of the calories that I burned. I had just gotten to the point to where I didn't have to dismount my bicycle on the way home going uphill. It's a big hill. Then, going downhill, to work, the accident. I crashed going downhill around the hair pin turn on Deer Park Road. It's right there on the map where the big D is for Deer park. A car full of student nurses passed me up just prior to the corner, and then the driver slammed on her breaks, to slow down for the curve, right in front of me. It was either hit the back of their car, or go off the road into gravel. I ate the gravel. Broke my leg, and went home for the summer. I never did get back into that kind of shape again. It's hard work. It can also break ya. LOL.
Now some 30 years later, I find it hard to try and loose just some of the weight, and get some of that energy back. For what it's worth. I'd think that it would be easier to maintain a decent weight, and stay in shape, then try to get back into it. Trucking, Smoking, Drinking, none of that helps as you get older either. Better to stay away from those things from the start.
Was there a point to this post? Nope. Other then just reminiscing...
But I guess that I'd like to know, has anyone else had something like this happen to them? Get to working hard and then BOOM something happens to you, and you don't go back to what you were doing?

Lakewood Ohioan in Lakewood, NY #VFTC
So I was cruising through Lakewood, NY last week. (MM 22 on I-86) And came upon this sight. The Sun rising to my back, and a dark cloud cap up front, with the sun shining in under the clouds.
I was rather pleased that I was able to get these shots without a hitch. So many times these things just come out blurring.

As you can see, I'm now under the cloud cover. With the lake to the left of me. Not much traffic.

Truckers stranded as GMJ Co. Inc. abruptly shuts down
You know, this is just wrong. - Companies need to be able to bring their trucks and more importantly their drivers back home if the doors close.

Blogger Mobile or G+ with Android
This is an old draft post that I was working about 4 months ago, to show how simple it is to use Blogger with your cell phone to post.
I think that it still holds true after the re-vamping of Blogger. The new editor doesn't allow the addition of enclosures (mp3's for Podcasts) to the posts. I hope that they're not planning on taking that feature away.
Back to posting via your phone. You can set it up to be a draft, so you can edit with your computer later, or just have it post right from your phone.
On a side note, if you have an Android Phone, and are on Google Plus, you can have the pictures upload right after you take the pictures. Again, you can set it up to not post immediately or wait for you to edit and post them later, also you have choices for posting over the Cell Tower or via WiFi. Cell Towers are best, as they'll geo-tag the shots right after you take them.
