2025 April - Dragon Diary

It is a diary of my daily experiences. If an event is important, it will have its own post...

"Do not fear. We will watch out for you." Golem Mum

 

Overall -  Getting closer to figuring out the Baker cyst thing.  Still having difficulties with the DEM machines I have attached to my legs. Yay yay, I will get the other dragon diaries out soon.

 

4th - As I close my eyes, I see it. Perfect vision of me looking through a human at a group of 3 people and a suitcase leaving a doorway. It is as though I am on the stairs looking at them move out the doorway. 

In the record,  I have never experience that type of sight before.

 

I stand up at my desk, with my right hand out to open the record. I hear a voice say, "Are you sure you want to open the record?" 

I pause. 

It's a male voice. 

My first thought is that voice is me.

I put my hand on the vision and turn it 180 to see who the person is, which turn out to be me. 

I don't think the doorway event has happened yet, so...what was the point of it. 

I put my right hand out and open the event prior to the perfect sight event.

I fling my wrist as the teacher puts her hand my my hand, and I start to listen to the conversation between the teacher and me.  

"So show me something that is in the future." 

"Look into this time dot."

I quickly peer in and see the doorway event with Perfect sight. 

"That was cool and clarifying."

"Do you understand how the book can help you with your mission?"

"Yay, yay. It will allow me to take the path I need versus the path of deterrence."

"Is that enough for you to do the path?" 

"It's going to have to be, won't it?"

She nods.

"Right."  

In the record, I am not a very good student. Quite lazy in fact.

In the record, it is not laziness, but caution. 

In the record, there will be time, soon, when I need to be in my body 24/7. No more avatar substitution.

 

6th - Updated post: Venusian Law: Hands Off Human

- Cow Mums came by for a visit. 

 

It looks like there was a data dump of the blog.

 

27th - I check the blog stats when I am on the computer. I noticed a huge spike in hits.  It must be a dump of the blog. 

- In the record, these folks have no ideal how the DEM world works. At least these folks had a clue. 

I need to explain to them that in the DEM world, "Once touched, always in touch". Since I wrote the blog, I am in contact with that information no matter what format it is in. In physics term, it is quantum entanglement. The phenomenon of two particle touching each other and then drift apart. Whatever happens to one of the particle can happen to the other particle.

- In the record, I open the record of blog dump. I see two tables in an "L" shape with three computing machines run by one person. I see the data on each one being downloaded to a storage device. I see the person walking with the storage device in to a two door room. Once in, I see him plug in the device to download the files. The room has many servers. In fact, there are multiple floors with servers. 

- In the record, I don't care. But whatever I see, the rest of the avatar world sees. This means that my people now have access to all those wonderful servers and the data on them. In fact, my people have golems watching the building and the person who did the dump.  Also, it looks like there are no clairvoyants in the building because they are unaware that they are now under surveillance. In fact everyone going in and out of the building is now under surveillance. Well, have fun with that. 

Pic is from the anime Solo Leveling

30th - The above pic is from an YouTube video what is reading the Solo Leveling manga. The reason I took the pic is because Hunter Sung is being shown a image, a.k.a. timeline record, of the fight between his father and Hunter Huang. Hunter Sung even has access to the words used in the timeline. 

In the record, this is almost the same thing I experience. The only exception would be that for Hunter Sung to have access to records he was not present for, he would need to have that person give him access as he opens that record. 

- In the record, I watch anime because it is the closest depiction of the DEM world.

Update: 

2025 May 3 - grammar. LOL. My people keep closing me out of having sight of the building. It is best I know nothing of the building, location, or the people going in and out.

 

2025 April - 5% diary

It's a diary of my normal life, the 5%. Just posting my replies to the monthly newsletter questions between the family and cousins. Dragon comments are after, "In the record". 

David--April Fool’s Day…did you ever do any tricks on that day, any age? Let's talk about April Fool life jokes. Since November 5th, that mad King has done April fools on our democracy. Everyday it is yet another bizarre proclamation from that wanna be autocrat. We still have 3.5 years to go with that crazed man. Another April fool's life joke is fire harden house changes. Climate change is making a change to the forest of the Berkeley hills. See picture from Marin Circle. That city is doing hardcore mandates on the people of the hill to harden 5' perimeter around the house. I know I am doing hardscape around the house but it is now 5'. And all those trees will have to go. Too bad. 

 

View of the Berkeley Hills from the Marin Circle

 

Do you have any funny or horror stories for April 15th? Thankfully no. I don't do my taxes anymore. I fill out the tax preparer's form and pay my taxes. One funny thing I did find out was that the penalty for not paying my taxes is less than the preparer's fee. It makes you think that the IRS should just send me a bill and I will pay it. .

In your day dreams is there any state or city that you would like to move to and what makes that place a fond wish for you? I rather like the climate of Northern California's Bay Area. Not moving anytime soon.
What made you smile today or this week or month? Climate change! Give me a minute to explain. You see, I like projects and fire hardening the house is a bunch of house projects. Projects like replacing wood railings with metal. Covering the cedar soffit and fascia with cement Hardie boards. Rerouting the fiber optic cable inside the house wall because we need to reduce the vent grids to 1/8" square mesh. Replace the roof with a metal one so we can mount the solar panels on the metal roof ridges. Replacing the redwood fence with something nonburnable? Yeah for projects!

Is there an age you reached or looking forward to that made you think differently about that point? You know, I sort of mindlessly meander through life doing the next thing without much thought. I went to UC Santa Cruz because? I dropped out and went back home to help us move up North? I went and stayed with my AZ relative to do what? I later came back to Walnut Creek to go to a junior college to get a Machinist/Welder certification, and stayed to get my pre-engineering classes? I went to UC Davis and got my Mechanical/ Material Science degree, but decided to dumpster dive and train for triathlons. Then Rick offered me a job out of the blue and I took it. I got married and raised kids, got divorced and I now live in the basement of my previous wife Susan. But now I have reached where I want to be. I am a high level clairvoyant who can see 100% of our universe. See link for the 100%, https://home.web.cern.ch/science/physics/dark-matter. But in a world of 5 percenters, it gets you nothing, though It still makes me happy knowing how everything works.

April 28th is Great Poetry Day. I have no logic why I like project? I still my will to always build. (In poetry, the grammar can take a back seat. LOL)

 
Any special plans for Easter? Going to Mom's to cook a green bean-onion with bacon. Here is a funny story regarding my side dish of stir fried green beans, onion, with bacon, GOB. We are all sitting at the Xmas dinner table and Meera asked me to pass her the GOB side dish. I looked at her holding the dish and said, "What is the password?" She stared at me wondering what my silly Uncle was up to now. Then I stated, "Bacon!". We both cracked up laughing. But the bacon makes the dish.

How is life going for you? Life is like a project. When one project is done you go to the next one. The current project is the pit under the front deck. See link: https://youtube.com/shorts/2Yuu8r98Q1k?si=92u5M2cKRdp3mU-f . Below are the plans for the pit. We are pouring the concrete pad this Tuesday. Wish Ben and me luck. 

 

Happy Easter everyone!

2025 March - 5% diary

 It's a diary of my normal life, the 5%. Just posting my replies to the monthly newsletter questions between the family and cousins. Dragon comments are after, "In the record". 

David--About the academy awards: Well until an anime film gets an award, I am not watching the awards.
· March Madness? I have never watched the college games. I suppose if there are highlights I would watch them. If I had to pick a team it would be Gonzaga! What a great sounding name. So I had to look it up and " In 1887 when Father Joseph Cataldo, an Italian born Jesuit, founded Gonzaga College in Spokane, Washington, it seemed fitting to name the new school after his fellow Jesuit and fellow Italian, St. Aloysius Gonzaga. Aloysius is the Latin form of Gonzaga's given name, Luigi." LOL Aloysius is latin for Luigi. You know if the saint had kept his Italian name there could have been a gaming community in the Catholic church. Mario!
· Major League Baseball is testing robot umpires. Yes! Let the technology come in. The other sports are doing it. It's baseball's turn.
Spring arrives on March 20. Happy spring!
· Spring Plans: You see I retired early. And the Prez is screwing with the economy. I did cash out a life policy which should be enough money for a year which I am hoping will be the end of the Prez's love of tariffs. And stay dry. See rain vid: sudden downpour
· Favorite Spring Activities: Smoking meat, though it is now a year round activity.

 

· Gardening Tips: Let nature do its thing. See pic of the backyard of the millet and sour grass.
· Local Events: Future protest of the current regime.
· Environmental Awareness: Continue to feed the songbirds and make sure I wash my hands off after touching any of the bird baths or feeders.
And lastly, what have you been up to lately?

I made the Green House Bakery's pancakes. See pic. Use the Maple Joe syrup to keep the sugar low. 

Got a new pressure washer that has an auto turn off, which is more important than I thought. See pic. I recommend the Westinghouse pressure washers. 

Remember in the last newsletter that I had to take up some deck board to repair the stucco. Then I realized I had to redo the entire deck. The contractor from 1997 installed the deck board like a wall with the board screwed together into pressure treated lumber wedge into the opening. Yes, wedged. The screws rusted and the heads broke off. The deck underlayment was gravel and wood which never dried out and clogged. It was a complete redo. See the design pic I submitted for Susan's approval. Yes, things I do need approval before they commence because she is paying for half the cost.
The deck underlayment process: Remove gravel. Add Perkgrout between the existing 2x8 and patio metal barrier. Dry. Remove 2x8 with a sawzall and metal cutter. Pressure wash the concrete. See pressure wash deck concrete. Drill and bolt the 2x4 to concrete. Add metal to the top of the old wall for the concrete. Pour concrete between grout and 2x4 and vibrate. Dry. Fill bolt holes. Rubberize butyl tape to the top of 2x4 and concrete. Screw deck angles to the 2x4. Done.

 

Time to clean the deck 4x4 cedar boards. The pic has all the process steps. See the pressure washing vid here: pressure washing deck boards And see the before and after pic.

The issue I came across were:
- The end deck board was wedged in place by the garden wall. Had to cut a relief in the wall to get the last board out.
- Cleaned the deck boards on the truck tailgate on the street to not kill any dymondia between the flagstones.
- Had to wire brush scrub every side of the deck board to get the old wax off, which is why the board turned a dark color.
- The old butyl tape had lost its adhesive but the liquid rubber substituted for a new adhesive.
- The two small wood blocks in front of the red deck post (see pic) were screwed to the deck boards around the post. It took forever to finally cut everything free without damage.
- We did not wedge the board in prior to screwing and had to redo the first two boards. Also you need to install the screws by the house which will clinch up the board against the patio metal.

Otherwise it all came out fine.
After standing over the pit for a couple of weeks, it is now time to do the pit. See video. pit under front door deck

Happy Spring Everyone!

2025 February - 5% diary

It's a diary of my normal life, the 5%. Just posting my replies to the monthly newsletter questions between the family and cousins. Dragon comments are after, "In the record".

Title page of family newsletter

David–Who are you rooting for, the Kansas City Chiefs or the Philadelphia Eagles? Do you plan to watch it? Do you plan to bet in it? Let us know if you have a Superbowl party planned. Well, I did not watch it but I did watch the highlights here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rOmWIERvzo

Groundhogs day or Cake? Are you with the PETA folks on having a weather reveal cake instead of caged groundhog? Well, I would rather eat cake, so cake it is.

Pancake day is March 4th: What is your favorite pancake and do you have a recipe to share? Yes I know it's early but we need the recipes for the 4th. In the old day it was chocolate chip pancakes or pain pancakes to wrap bacon or sausage, a.k.a. Pigs in a Blanket. But that was because the way my dad made pancakes. I remember him telling us stories of their family constantly watering down the dough for the next kid that woke up for breakfast. So our pancake dough was always running and I thought nothing of it. Later in life, I finally read the directions and realize that we were making panflat not pancakes. So I followed the Bisquick directions and the flats finally turned into cakes. But still pancakes were the medium for chips or meats or berries, which is why I started to prefer waffles, light and crunchy. And french toast made with Siegfried challah using their french toast recipe which was excellent. Never did I like pancakes. Then in the Berkeleyside online newsletter was a recipe for Green House Bakery’s pancakes.

See link for the article with the recipe: https://www.berkeleyside.org/2024/11/22/green-house-bakery-pancake-recipe
The video on how to make the pancakes is here: https://oaklandside.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/PancakesGreenHouseBakery.mp4
After viewing the video I knew that I wanted to eat those pancakes that were truly a cake. Everything I knew about how to make pancakes was turned upside down. I have not made them yet, but I have bought all the ingredients to do it. Wish my taste buds luck.

Tell us how your taste has changed from the early days of syrup to now. Sadly, I think the days of sugar are over for me. I do remember always using Mapline to make syrup. I even converted a maple loving syrup person over to Mapline.

I need stories on how you used to do valentines day, especially in the grade school era. Grade school valentines was about mass producing valentines or you would be looked down on. I remember going shopping with Mom and picking out the valentines once. Still it was fun giving out the valentines to all my school mates.

Tell us how your taste in valentine has changed over the years. It seem predictable on what you had to do. It was as though if you did not do it you would be a lesser person. Also, being divorce and liking my single life does not endear me to wanting to fawn over a person.

Tell us what you like about that late night show. I never liked SNL. Whenever I hear a laugh track I get turned off of the humor, because no one is laughing. The only two late night folks I watch on YouTube is Late Night with Seth Meyers and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

As always tells us about any travel plans, projects and life in general. No travel, but projects a many. Note YouTube is an excellent place to learn any new skill that is needed for around the house work.

Stucco: The folks who stuccoed the outside of the house did the best they could because we decided to spend no money on the outside landscaping. So 20 years later we have to fix all the guesses. Also, the standard, materials have changed and folks are doing shortcuts to speed up the installation. Typically a stucco wall is a bottom edge overlapped with tar paper, wire hammered for base coat, topped with a color coat. Now a days, they put the one coat of stucco on and paint the color on the stucco. I can see this because the painted green concrete Hardie boards we have on the outside of the house have held up. See next page for the step by step work of the stucco patch.

The issues I had were:
- The base stucco and top color stucco are out of date. For some reason Walmart has base stucco.
- The color tint does not exist except for the three boxes we own.
- There are no ¾” stucco nail. I had to cut 1.5” nails to ¾” and grind points on them.
We had to pull all the wads off the nail and glue the wads on the wall because of the small patch wire we had.

- Some stucco wall have plywood others had only concrete. We used ¾” nuts for spacers for the concrete rivets on the concrete walls. 

- They used edge screed not weep screed for the bottom. I had to drill holes in all the edge screed for the weep.
- Skip the paper and rubberize between all layers.
-- They lazily stapled the lath wire to the ply instead of using wads to center the lath in the middle of the base coat.

The good news is that I like to problem solve. It looks great. Floating stucco to smooth it out is easy. 

Roof Leaves: I had to get on the ladder again but I purchased pole extensions taped a cheap plastic rake to get the leaves off. 

Waterproofing All Wood: The wood around the house is redwood seat, ramp, stairs, seat, table, 2nd story deck, living room deck, front door deck, soffits all around the house, and barn door panels. I had no idea what to do. The previous waterproofing had wax in it which is why all the wood looks dark. Then YouTube came to may aid. Watched enough videos to understand that I need to use sodium percarbonate to strip and oxalic acid to brighten. The Eco Advance exterior wood siloxane waterproof is plant friendly. So far so good. The only work I had to do was to wire brush the redwood seats to get the old wax off, three times. Now I need to figure out what scaffolding I need to redo do the cedar soffits and paint any wood while on the scaffolding. Front Deck: I was going to patch the corner by the front patio/deck. I went under the deck to tried to unscrew the screws holding the deck boards down. One after the other screw heads broke off. They did not use deck hardware. It is time to completely redo the front deck. Got some videos for viewing: Stucco hammer drilling How to recycle twist ties Deli pencil sharpeners - perfect point every time. Yeah I proceed to sharpen every pencil in the house. Makita sprayer - which is excellent. No more pumping to build pressure.
