This blog includes 52 Stories in 52 Weeks, which was done in 2007, along with some metaphysical or life lectures. There is artwork and videos, too. I started writing and drawing with two hands around the year 2001 as a mental and brain development experiment on my own brain to restructure my brain's neurons, etc. again. Simply put, using two hands to write and draw forces both sides of the brain to connect together, to become a holistic, stronger, improved brain. I hope you enjoy my blog.

Some Advice for Younger People. ... Create Good Memories!

Happy Father's Day.
By: Mr. George D. Patnoe., Jr! June 21st, 2020 On this Sunday, it is Father’s Day in America, as I write this free online essay. I have had a long week and yet, somehow, my brain, mind, and consciousness have found a topic to write about that I can not get out of my ‘head,’ so I am going to get it out of my ‘head’ now. This topic is a rather abstract mental topic, meaning I am not going to write about the cosmic universe, or God and evil, or the fake racism and black slavery that many human beings are crying about in today’s news. First, a statement about blacks being slaves in America. Just for the record, esp. for the black people who think that they are still slaves and that they are suppressed by the white man, it is not true by any standard of the imagination. Why is it not true? Because there are very successful black human beings all around America, and I know some of them personally. For example, there was a black president only less than four years ago. There are black congressmen and senators. There are black teachers, police officers, nurses, and the list could go on for some time, like there are black military personal, black actors, black artists, black musicians, black CEOs and businessmen and ladies, black porn stars and drug dealers. You see, the last two on that list are not at the level of the previously mentioned list of what black people can do as a human being. But if black people want to be a porn star or a drug dealer, that is their decision; nobody made them do it as slaves. If black or white people disobey the law and they have to deal with the police, that is their decision; nobody made them make wrong decisions after they become adults. I just had to write that statement just in case anyone was wondering what I might be thinking about it, but I am sure that there are billions of human beings all around the globe thinking the same thing when they see signs that state, ‘Blacks are not Slaves.’ No, you are not, so stop thinking you are slaves and that you are suppressed by the white man, who by the way, made America great from the first day they set their feet on the dirt to this day and made life better for everyone including the black people who live in America. The black people who do not like it here can take buy a ticket and go live in Africa where they can learn how great America is for them too. When I visited China for over a month some time ago, I loved America more and more than before. I am not going to write about black memories here, but I am sure that Opah has many good memories making a lot of money in white America, just like a lot of black people make a lot of money in America, but not by being slaves, but by being good people, hard-working people, who have a respect for law and order, and America’s way of life, even if it is not perfect. I am going to write about the topic of personal human memories in general, whether you are white or black or anywhere in between. That is my freedom as an American citizen, just as a black American citizen can write anything truthful thing they want to write about in America. Personal Human Memories! Absolute Reality or Just a Personal Dream. Hum? One night around 3 am, I was mentally relaxing between sleeping and being awake. I was in a mental zone, without drugs you must understand. What you should understand is that California’s sun is so freaking bright and hot during the day that when nighttime arrives, and the brain and human mind, is given a rest from the bright sunlight letting the brain relax from the bombardment of sun rays into the eyes and brain. Anyway, I was in the mental zone where I simply let my mind wander and I listened on a very deep level to anything that might pop into my mind, such as a good metaphysical idea that I have not read in any book that I could remember reading. And just like that, POP, into my mind. Something like, “Are all of your, my, personal human memories real, or part of reality, like on a higher level of existence, or are they just simply your own personal mental dream world within your own brain, mind, and consciousness that can be replayed over and over again until you, or I, are dead?” Which leads to another question, ‘Can your memories be carried over into the afterlife if you have an afterlife?’ I already know that I will have an afterlife, but that is not the topic of this essay. So in the darkness of the night, and coolness on my skin which is still warm from the day’s heat, I expanded that statement of question within my own mind on a very conscious level of mental existence. And I wonder to myself, ‘Hum, my personal individual human memories are my individual human personal memories and they do not belong to one other human being on planet earth or anywhere else for that matter. Even if other people or human beings are located within my individual memories, they have their own memories of any experience we might have shared together in an exact moment of time and place and age, and experience. So then to continue with that train of thought or thinking or pondering, ‘Does it matter what happens to me within my mind forty or fifty or 100 years ago really matter to me today?’ That answer is it depends on how I handle and manage my memories or mental dream bank, whether they are good or bad, funny or sad, hurtful or painful, or a mistake, or even if I changed the world with the words I write today. Another issue is, ‘Do my memories make a difference to anyone else?’ Or, ‘Does anyone else care about my personal memories?’ And if they did care, What difference would it make to me ... or them.” Most of the time, events that have happened to us, in general, can not be erased from the mental memory bank, whether internal subjective individualized personal memories or even eternal objective memories about life that me or you or we might not have even been involved in, like say, true black slavery long ago, (Which by the way, the white man changed all by themselves to make life better for the black people who live in America.” or say the civil war or World War I or II. Or how about how the Romans lived or how the man Jesus might have lived and his impact on the human species, or those people who followed him and wrote stuff down about him that may or may not be true, depending on how you look at that information. In a way, I do not live in another person’s dream, unless they think about me as if I was in a movie inside their minds. After all, even if I am part of their memories of long ago, we both lived life to make other memories that neither of us is aware of, but we could guess at in general. For example, I was once sucker slapped in my face when I was in the sixth grade and there was nothing I could do about it because he was so much bigger than me and he was in a position to sucker slap me in my young face. I carried that memory with me on a subconscious level until I became older and I remembered it and then I began to realize what kind of impact that sucker slap to my face did to my life until I began to remember it and then, and here is the main point, I had to mentally handle that mental movie dream world within my mind and consciousness with all of its rare negative emotions and its logical intellectual rationale and consequences, both mentally within my mind and physically within my life. When I became older, I thought to myself, ‘What was he going through during that moment in his life, or what had he experienced in his life to do such a thing to me. Cause and effect relationships from one human being to another human being, in every human being’s experience. Sometimes we can figure out why things happened to us in the past and sometimes we can not figure out why things happened to us in the past. But we still have to deal with, handle, and overcome good and bad memories because we all have to live in the now of the moment on a physical level and on a mental level too. And maybe, more importantly, we all have to live for the future as well. But was it real or just a dream world? What do I mean by that statement? Well, the experience did happen in a split second of time with another human being, actually, there were other people there, but they do not matter for this point. I think, even though they were part of my memory, there was nothing they could do to stop the sucker slap or help my memory. Ok, back to the point. Like all experiences or many of them that we choose to remember because they are those very big, vivid memories that can not be forgotten too easily, I was sucker slapped, (Which might have been a good lesson for me because I have never been sucker slapped since.) It was an event within the physical boundaries of space-time and age of the two people, one older, one younger, and there was a sensation on my skin, and a bit of a shock to my face and to my mind, and more importantly, a pause. Yes, a pause! At that exact moment after the sucker slap, I paused, and I stared at him and at them. For a few seconds, I took it all into my young, immature mind, never to trust him ever again. Nor did I ever trust him again, with anything. I looked at the anger in his eyes, on his face, in the back of his hand that was still there, lingering in the air, as if to slap me again. Believe it or not, I can still see it all, right now as I am typing these words, clearer and brighter than the sun that is sending its hot rays of stuff to earth. But it is not real now. It is not happening now, except within my mental memory bank. In a very big and real way, it is only a mental dream within my brain’s and mind’s mental memory bank, but that experience is not happening now within my life, only within my mind. And unlike years ago, that is all it is, just a bunch of visual pictures within my mind, nothing more. No more anger, no more hate, no more negative emotions, no more nothing, except the lesson never to be suck punched by anyone ever again. Sometimes I wonder what the man Jesus, or anyone being crucified in those days must have felt when they saw those nails hanging in the air and while they were being targeted for the hands and feet, and when they were pounded into the skin and bones while they screamed out in horror of being tortured by other human beings who might not have had a sense of conscience or a sense of duty to their fellow man, only a sense of duty to their government instead of to poor people. How much pain and suffering did any of them remember their experience in the afterlife if they indeed did have an afterlife? Hum! Maybe none at all. No pain and suffering. Or maybe no afterlife either. But maybe an afterlife and if yes, they sure were happy to leave earth by then. Last night on Netflix, I watched a movie titled, ‘Rememory.’ about a guy who creates a machine that can recall all of the human memories or only certain memories. I think that the whole point of the movie was whether it was a good idea to make such a memory machine and what would happen to the human beings who could and did watch their own memories over and over again. Whenever I mention certain topics like death and dying and the afterlife to older people, they always tell me, ‘Yes, I am always thinking about my death.’ And they also tell me that they are always thinking about their past too like the memory is an automatic machine replaying over and over again the same movie within the brain and mind. I have talked to quite a few military men who have killed in wars and they also have told me that they have their own mental movies from their individual personal memory banks playing over and over again, acts and actions of killing and the death of their brethren during combat. I am always ready to help those in need of mental healing and I do my best with these guys. There was this one Navy Seal, a middle-aged guy, soft talker, who was chatting with me outside a store. He told me how he was walking with his buddy, a black Navy Seal by the way, when he heard a shot and he looked to his left to see his buddies head blown off. So this Navy Seal pointed his rifle at the palm tree where the sniper was hiding and he shot that sniper dead. The sniper fell to the ground. The Navy Seal walked over to the dead body only to discover that it was a 16-year-old boy. This Navy Seal had real sadness in his eyes and he felt guilty for killing a 16-year-old sniper, but he also felt bad for his black Navy Seal buddy too. I simply said, ‘If you had not killed that 16-year-old sniper, you would not be here for your daughters and family.’ He looked relieved that I gave him some good words to relieve him from his guilt, even if his experience might play over and over again from his mental memory bank throughout his life. Every human being has related experiences of memories playing over and over and over again from their personal individual memory banks or some type of memory they want to completely forget, or they would like to relive the good memories over and over again, even if they are living in a completely different time period in a completely new life. But replaying on a physical level can never happen, ever again. That is not the way life works, even if they try to make a memory machine that will enable you to watch your memories over and over again. Maybe memories should be like living life with someone, a loved one, who has died. Life goes on, anyway. But more importantly, on a higher level, if there is a God somehow that exists, do you think it really cares about all of my, or your, or any of the infinite individual personal memories from all of the human memory banks on earth? Really! I do not think so! That is not its job! Or maybe God does remember every moment, every second of your individual personal memory bank. Just Maybe!

America’s Wants and Woes! Peaceful Demonstrations and Protests Versus Violent Criminals. Is America Still White and Black. Or Is America Still the Greatest Country on Earth? By: Mr. George D. Patnoe., Jr! June 7th, 2020.

America’s Wants and Woes!

Peaceful Demonstrations and Protests Versus Violent Criminals.

Is Violence Ever Any Good?

Is America Still White and Black.

Or Is America Still the Greatest Country on Earth?

By: Mr. George D. Patnoe., Jr!

June 7th, 2020.

A month or so ago, maybe longer, I watched the movie, ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.’ Like many older folks who know or had read or somehow faintly knew about the murders of Sharon Tate and her buddies by the Manson Family, I watch that movie with a sense of, ‘Where in the freak is this movie going by a known movie producer who is known to make good movies?’ After all, it seemed old news because it happened so long ago that the teenagers of today probably never have even heard about the Sharon Tate murders by the uneducated, low lives, criminals, mentally insane, drug-induced Manson Family. I sat on my sofa, surrounded by my bird/parrot buddies, rabbit, cat, fish, as we all watched my weekend movie. I could only have some faith that this movie producer had made a movie that was going to prove some point to me as I watched this movie and ate my popcorn, which was enjoyed by some of the birds/parrots.

He did not disappoint! Oh no, my dear readers. Oh, he did not! I do not want to give away the story or esp. the ending, but I almost jumped up and yelled into the air, ‘Yes, you m.....f..kers. You got what you deserved because you wanted to murder innocent and defenseless human beings because you were uneducated, white trash low lives, criminals, druggies, mentally insane human beings. Oh yes, they were also violent too. They believed that violence was somehow going to change the world and start a revolution because of their mentally delusional concepts of how things work in the world, and within the human mind, both individually and collectively too. But in the movie, a very slow going, almost boring movie, the violent acts in the movie were very much justified because they were used in self-defense against human beings who were again, uneducated, white trash low lives, criminals, druggies, mentally insane drug-induced human beings.

It has been stated and seen all around the world, how one United States white police officer put his knee on the neck of a black man for longer than eight minutes, which led to the death of that black man, even though that black man had committed a crime, so it was reported. It should be stated somewhere and somehow that if that black man did not commit a crime, he would not have had to deal with the police at all, just like if white people who do not commit crimes, they too, do not have to deal with the police at all, most of the time anyway, in their normal everyday lives. So, therefore, by the relationships of cause and effect, one ‘violent act’ produced many more violent acts by other people in America.

So that has led to the excuse for hundreds or thousands of black people to become violent and/or to commit criminal acts such as burning down buildings or breaking into businesses and stealing everything they can get their hands on because these black people do not seem to understand that the business owners now have even more problems trying to stay in business during a time a killer virus which has led to thousands or tens of thousands of businesses losing money and maybe even losing their business altogether. So stupid and crazy, or irrational and emotional, black people are destroying or have destroyed the businesses and lives of black people who live in their own neighborhoods. How stupid is that? It has happened in America ever since I can remember, even when I was a young boy and I did not understand the world as I do now.

On the other hand, from what I have seen on Fox News and CNN, etc. it is mostly the white people who are non-violently protesting and demonstrating by sitting down or laying down and walking, even if they might be taking the same drugs and drinking the same beers as the black people. (That was supposed to be partly funny.) OK, even white people get it, a black man was killed unjustly by a white cop. But from what I have read, esp. in the Wall Street Journals, in the Opinion Section, Wednesday, June 3rd, 2020, page A19, titled, ‘The Myth of Systemic Police Racism.’ Black criminals are killed more by black cops and black criminals than by white cops and even white criminals. Maybe white criminals only kill white criminals; just a guess.

The author, Ms. Mac Donald is a fellow at the Manhattan Institute and the author of ‘The War on Cops,’ (Encounter Books, 2016.

There are again, thousands or even tens of thousands of Americans, mostly black people it seems, who believe that being violent, criminal, probably mostly on some sort of drug or drink, but also mentally insane for believing that their violent acts of burning police cars, which will only be replaced by being bought again with taxpayer money or police buildings that will be rebuilt and replaced with taxpayer money, will accomplish anything of long duration except them getting prison terms if they are caught by the police and by the cameras that were recording their mentally deranged activities because they had no morals or standards or the difference between right and wrong, legal versus illegal, being civilized versus being barbaric human beings who are probably really angry about their lives and how America is as a country and a society. Another point here is that the majority of black people probably do not believe in violence or being a criminal or druggie or thief either. They just want to be good people and live a good life as long as they can, like most of us white people.

Sure, I can not blame some people for being mad and angry for what kinds of conditions they were born in, just like I can not blame some people for being mad and angry because the C-19 virus turned their lives upside down in a matter of days or weeks or months, and maybe for the rest of their natural days on planet earth. But the issues of being black in America is not the same as it was not so long ago because in America, black people can decide not to take drugs, carry guns illegally, commit non-violent and violent crimes, and end up in a jail or prison just like white people can decide to not take drugs, carry guns illegally, commit non-violent and violent crimes and end up in a jail cell or prison. Black people, like white people and every other race, can decide to make the correct choice in their lives to have a better life. Those are the facts!

I, like millions of Americans and billions of people around the globe, having been watching the news on television and on the world wide web and my bet is that many if not the majority of human beings, thinkers and non-thinkers alike, have arrived at some fundamental conclusions that almost seem to natural and normal to seem otherwise. There is a huge difference between peaceful protesters and demonstrators who are sitting on their butts in the hot sun’s heat, hoping that they do not have to take a pee anytime soon or those people who are walking on some streets with signs in their hands and yelling words into the air, like how some people yell into the air at their churches at God, or to praise God or just to yell to make themselves feel better for a few minutes as if yelling into the air at church at or for God is going to make any difference to God or those yelling believers whatsoever, versus the people burning down buildings and committing other crimes. Just like those protesters and demonstrators who believe that yelling into the air as they walk down the street is going to make any difference whatsoever in the way life is in America, at least in the short or even long term. Sure, politicians will make promises they will not keep, but that is America for you.

Some black are really mad and angry because they are living the lives that they were born into and the lives they made for themselves. They want to blame other people, esp. the white people for all of their problems and issues, but those black people still live in America, which still gives them the freedoms of working to earn money, work hard, go to a college or university, or serve in the United States military to start a new life when they get out of high school. I have met black people who have done just that; going into the military, getting degrees after the military or getting a job to earn money, having a family and being good people, etc.

They are good people, no judgment here about skin color. America is to0 good for that social delusion and division. How can I state that you may ask yourselves? Because America is filled from coast to coast with all kinds of people with different skin colors, and cultures, and religions, and financial situations too. You never see any of them burning down police stations or esp. their own neighborhood stores. Never, even if they are unhappy with the American way of life and its police. I have never seen in all of my days on earth the Chinese burning down their businesses because they were mad and angry with something wrong in America. And I bet that the Chinese people have not always been treated fairly in America either.

And if people want to yell out the words or print them on paper, ‘White Supremacy.’ as if that was a truly negative thing, it should never be forgotten that without the ‘Whites from Europe,” America would not have developed into a country with the freedoms its citizens enjoy; like freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom to own a gun, freedom to join a political party and to run for office and work in government too, freedom to own a business, freedom to read books and learn and become a CEO of major corporations in the capitalist system that the ‘White People.” created and developed over time, as imperfect as it may seem to some people. But America is not that imperfect a country where black people can not also enjoy the above-mentioned freedoms too. There was a black president after all. No more excuses anymore.

Here is a thing that many black people and other people forget. America is a land of law and order, even if there are way too many outdated laws on the legal books, and even if many laws are just plain stupid, created by people who probably never really had to work for a living, meaning everything was given to them by their parents or someone who their parents knew in certain political fields of office. Law and order mean that America needs good police and police departments to keep the likes of the Mason Family, the uneducated, low lives, criminal, drug-induced insane people from killing and murdering innocent and defenseless human beings. Law and order also mean being able to make good movies too.

Judge Jennie once stated on television that, ‘One in five Americans have been arrested for something.’ I once read that every American commits about three to five (outdated) federal laws every day without knowing it. Yes, America has become a police state in one sense, but not like a police state in other countries where their citizens can go to jail just for writing or speaking against their governments and officials and leaders too. In America, its citizens can write and speak against their governments all day long, just like the protesters and demonstrators too. But not unlike those burning down buildings because that is a real crime, punishable by prison.
It might be asked, ‘What is the difference between killing and murdering a human being versus burning down his or her family business?’ Only a matter of degree, my dear readers, only a matter of degree.

It is sad really! Really SAD, my dear readers. The first six months of 2020 when America and its people and their economy is touched negatively by the C-19 virus. But the whole world is also touched negatively by the C-19 virus. The C-19 virus was not created by Americans, but Americans will live on after the C-19 virus to continue to live with its freedoms of "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness"

"Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" is a well-known phrase in the United States Declaration of Independence.[1] The phrase gives three examples of the "unalienable rights" which the Declaration says have been given to all humans by their creator, and which governments are created to protect. (Taken off the web.)

It is very sad because the whole world is always watching what happens in and to America, including how the American people treat other Americans. China, Russia, Iran, etc. They are all currently watching how one white cop treated a black man with indifference like the black man was less than a human being, all because the black man wanted to buy some food, even if he did it with a fake 20 dollar bill. The black man is now dead because the one white cop had no sense of conscience, morals, or standards, just like the black people who have burned down stores and businesses have no sense of conscience, morals, or standards either.

But what is even sadder than the world watching America and how American’s are handling the death of another black man by any cop of any skin color, is that millions of Americans are watching this crap on television’s news channels every day and every night, and so are the millions of American children who know nothing about America and its history, nor that of the world. What they remember later about what is happening now about what they see on television or in their smartphones might lead to another generation of black children burning down their neighborhoods and stores; and white children walking on streets yelling and screaming, while they hold their signs up high for the cameras to record and for the world to see. And sitting on sidewalks waiting to take a pee.

But somehow, in the back of their tiny brains and minds, they should always remember that if they tried that in China, or Russia, or Iran, or many other countries around the world, the military would come in and kill them all dead, or if not that, put them all in a bad prison with nowhere to take a pee except inside a bucket. But not in America! Oh no, my dear readers. Why? Because America and its freedoms is still the greatest country on earth, for both whites and blacks, and the reds and yellows and purples and the greens and browns and any color in between! And that is stated here, in black and white.

About Me

My photo
United States
When I was in college studying International Economics/Finance, I was also wondering how to develop a more powerful brain. So in 2001,I began a very specialized ambidextrous brain exercise program, for two hours per day,for many years. Those brain exercise began with me writing out words,mostly verbs, with both hands in different patterns.That developed into dual handed sentence writing to longer stories and dual handed drawing exercises.Details are for future books.I did these two hour brain workouts as a personal experiment to restructure my brain's neurons for the purpose of making my brain stronger for writing and language development; for logically creative storying writing.As far as I know, I am the only person in the course of history to have developed these ambidextrous hand/brain exercises.The purpose of these ambidextrous brain exercises is to strenghten both sides of the brain for language skills development, and to connect both sides of the brain together for language skills development. There is a very logical neurological reason for using two hands to write and draw as brain exercises. I also draw with both hands. 52 Stories is my testament!
