Hello, World.  I haven't commented on here in years.  I've been busy.  TheBruceLog is my YouTube channel that hasn't been posted to for a long time, either.  So both of these will be updated with a bunch of nonsense shortly.

Bl-ah.

I just thought of trying to make some money online through those, YouTube and this blog, but if nobody is interested in what I have to say, then I probably won't.  So we'll see what happens.

There are some things that have changed over the years, so there will be some changes to certain favorite websites, music, and stuff.  Drudgereport is out.  BlazeTv is in.  Mark Levin is in.

My daughter is a mom three times.  The kids are 8 year old girl, 6 year old boy, and 8 month old boy.  (Ho boy.)  My wife, Mary, the kids, and my sister-in-law are going to the Oregon coast this weekend for a little vacation.  Seaside.  It's supposed to be rainy and cold, which is beautiful because that is the way it always is on the Oregon coast, and the Oregon coast is beautiful.

I'm retired now, from Boeing.  I was a functional test lead on the 777X working factory travelers.  That's jobs, tests, that didn't get done in the factory and had to be done outside.  That was a lot, so we were busy.  I was pretty good at the 3D modeling programs, email, wiring, etcetera.  Now I'm not good at anything.

I was running sound at my church, but I retired from that, too.  Crawling around on my hands and knees running microphone cable was hurting my knees, and I fell twice.  At 67 years old, that's not good.  May the Lord show me what he wants me to do now, because I feel useless.

That's the report for today.  Now, to change all the favorite stuff.  

Bye.

Bruce

Revisit of my blog

Hello.  I was having a conversation yesterday with my beloved son-in-law, Markus Bosch, and realized I need to update this post.  I can't do it all right now, but let me say our daughter is married to Markus Bosch.  Details are to come. 
While looking for this blog of mine I found out my Aunt Betty died.  Here is her obit:
http://obits.dignitymemorial.com/dignity-memorial/obituary.aspx?n=Betty-Codling&lc=1577&pid=144955044&mid=4359452.
There are many pictures of her and my cousins, all of which I haven't seen in maybe 35 years.  There is also a picture of my grandfather, Robert Codling.

Shut off player to listen to this.

 

 

 

Team Leader

I’m having a “Team Leader” interview tomorrow.  I’ve had so many; I don’t know why I’m doing another.  But I have to try.  I think just the preparing and the trying itself is good, and I will grow with the effort.  May the Lord bless my efforts, if they are in His will.

Thinking

Dear Fans, all three of you, me, myself, and I,

Sorry I haven’t written anything for a while.  As you know I just can’t think of anything.  Maybe you, my general public, can think of a topic.  Like will Romney beat everyone and become the new President of the United States (POTUS).  Or will Ron Paul come roaring up from behind and win it all.  Or maybe you would prefer a different method of selecting our politicians, like North Korea. 

 

I’d like to write a song.  So, I’m reading a book on song writing.  I’m learning a lot of trivia about music.  I’m already pretty good with music trivia.  Ever heard of Subonic “Silver Apples of the Moon”?  Early electronic music.

 

I really enjoy electronic music.  I took a class in electronic music creation in college.  I worked on an Electro-Comp 400 and a reel to reel tape deck making loops.  I still have the tapes I made but I don’t have a tape deck to listen to them.  I haven’t listened to them in 40 years.  Hope I can some day.

 

Gotta go.  I try to post more often.

 

Christian Vs. Muslim

I don't believe our president is Muslim, but I'm not sure he is Christian, either. Has he made a public profession of faith, like what it says in Romans 10: 8-10? You can tell by his deeds according to James 2:14-26. Just because someone is born in a certain place, like America, doesn't mean he is a Christian. It's what comes out of the mouth that shows what is inside.

Opinion: Jean-Michel Cousteau on Gulf Oil Spill -- 'Do No Harm' Must Become Policy - AOL News

I agree that we need an alternative to off shore drilling, but putting up giant wind mills everywhere costs too much and is not attractive. Let's drill on land.

Music musings

I downloaded onto my phone some music. A couple of weeks ago it was Captain Beyond
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXz-UIaauqQ
Last night I downloaded Spirit's The Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6VKwhQz7VY

I think they have a similar sound, as far as I remember as I haven't listened to the Spirit album yet.

Party of Death

Health care for everybody! Free abortions for all babies! Step right up, step right up and stick your hand in San Francisco Rep. Nancy Pelosi's grab bag for goodies. They just HAD to get this thing passed, no matter what. It's good for the country. There was plenty of time to read the 2000+ page document from Thursday to Sunday. We all know what's in it anyway. Yes, abortions and goodies for every American!...
Now, let's see the list of who voted for it. Starting with Bart Stupak. And Washington's Second district Rick Larson. I'm looking for the list. As soon as I find it I'll post it.

This web site is under a spam attack.

Every day a boat load of spam is being posted to this site. I have changed the pass word several times. I will have to shut it is down if I can't stop it.

Vote for John Koster

John Koster for Representative 2nd District Washington!

Vote out Rick Larsen! Stop the spending!

"Shall not perish"

Seattle radio

Since KVI fired Kirby Wilber, who had the 5-9am slot, I quit listening to KVI. Which is sad, because I listened to KVI since 1989. I remember a lot of hosts being fired from there that I liked, from Mike Seigal, Doug Glant, Mike Reagan, Micheal Medved, and Rush Limbaugh, to name a few. And although Rush is a national host, the others were local, some went on to be national. Now KVI has only national shows, nothing local. I don't know if it's Fisher Broadcasting or FoxNews or what but when they got rid of Kirby for no reason, that was the last straw. So I quit. Now in the morning I listen to Washington Times Radio and David Boze on KTTH. David Boze is the only local conservative talk show host in Western Washington, unless you count Christian radio on KGNW or KCIS. I do listen to them to, when there is a preacher I like on there.
I listen to talk on the internet a lot now. My favorites are:

"Shall not perish"

The Christmas story begins before the creation of the world.

Albert Mohler:
So, where does the Christmas story begin? In the Gospel of John we read: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made." [John 1:1-3]
The prologue to John's Gospel points to creation and to Christ, the divine Logos, as the agent of creation. Yet, with language drawn directly from Genesis, John begins his gospel "in the beginning."

Mom

Yesterday was the day my mom died thirty years ago, Jenny, my sister reminded me. I miss my mom, although I don't remember her well. I don't have any recordings of her. My dad's voice is still fresh in my head, so I remember him more. Mom was a great woman, but I didn't appreciate her enough then. I do now. Some day I will see her and talk to her and listen to her.
I have more pictures of her and I will post them from time to time. For now I need to post some pictures of my brother and his artwork, then I need to post some of my dad's photography. Mom's art was her singing and unfortunatly I can't post her voice, but she had a beautiful voice. She was the soloist at Brookwood Presbyterian Church in Columbus, Ohio.
Life is funny. I'm going to be singing in church for Christmas. I'm not any soloist, however.
Talk to you later.
