I'm Looking For Someone Who Can...


Dub my videos into:

1) Polish
2) Slovakian
3) Hungarian
4) Russian
5) Lithuanian
6) Belorussian
7) Czech (Moravian, specifically)
8) Hebrew

and/or

9) Yiddish

(Dad's side)

As for Mom's side, French, German, and Portuguese (and/or Hebrew and/or Ladino, in case Pop-Pop "McCoy" was a Sephardic Anusi--since he was born in Portugal during the Peninsular War and fled it by the time that he was two years old; and maybe Spanish) would be the main ones. I don't know how far you'd get with Irish (since Pop-Pop Farrell did speak it), Scottish, Walloonian and Flemish Belgian, and other languages; but you could try those, too (to reach out to the Pirongs and Meijerses, for example).

By the way, Spanish and French, German, and Italian would work for Dad's side, too; since there are Danilowicz and Andrulevicus cousins in Latin America, and a Fockova cousin in Switzerland.

Two Problems...


  1. I wasn't making reading Scripture a priority in the recently-better times. Thus was fulfilled, "When you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless the Lord your God for the good land which He has given you." (Deuteronomy 8:10) and "When I have brought them to the land flowing with milk and honey, of which I swore to their fathers, and they have eaten and filled themselves and grown fat, then they will turn to other gods and serve them; and they will provoke Me and break My covenant." (Deuteronomy 31:20) You can see in the Book of Jeremiah, too, how I was handed over to my persecutors because I did not make reading Scripture in better times a priority.
  2. I have 140 followers and 517 friends on my regular page, 201 subscribers on YouTube, 469 Twitter followers, plenty of Blogger readers, etc. (if one doesn't account for duplicates). Yet, this isn't translating into "Likes" on my public page. Thus, I have a really-shaky support network and a don't-know-what-to-do conundrum in the more-private sphere. I can't accept every friend request in the world, yet I can't get enough "Likes" (headscratcher).

Problem #1 I'm working on fixing. Problems 2a and 2b are harder to fix without your help.

When I'm Not Blogging, I'm...

  1. Busy dealing with personal concerns (many of which I've blogged about).
  2. On Facebook (I also have a Facebook page.)
  3. On Twitter
  4. Trying to figure out my family tree.
  5. Doing schoolwork (Believe me or not!).
  6. Watching FOX News (I actually watch mostly "The O'Reilly Factor" and "Geraldo At Large" anymore.).
  7. Studying Scripture
I'm also doing other activities and concerning myself with other matters. Meanwhile, I've gotta pick up writing down (or rewriting down) my family story again sometime for Stage 32 (G-d willing; and as I've stated before, I'll never understand what is special enough about me that Stage 32 sent me an invite). I'm also (G-d willing) making aliyah after I graduate from UMBC in 2013 (and given that Walter Kuhn on Facebook did get a vision that he'd be preaching Jesus in the Temple Courts, I'll be here a while, anyway. After all, as much as I grumble that the Rapture won't come for a while, I have to give that getting a vision to "to be delivered in the courtyard of the lord's house to ALL those who come from the towns of Judah...[,] wait for the temple and continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem!! [and a]lso to bring His blessing to the people of God!!!" is getting a vision from Jesus--so who am I to argue with that, as much as I want the Rapture to come?

After all, I can only imagine that Walter will--at least in some ways--have life harder than this bat-Anusim v'Levit that I am. And I didn't catch that he'll " be delivered in the courtyard of the lord's house to ALL those who come from the towns of Judah..."--which could even mean that he will be killed for preaching Jesus ("Delivered" does sometimes connotate "delivered into the hands of" or "killed by".). Now that I think about it, I will not be surprised if ends up being one of the two witnesses (and who better than a kohen?).

Anyway, I and everyone else will be here for a while. So, I'll be making aliyah and waiting for the days that Walter saw in his vision to come to pass (I'll hate if he's killed, though; and I would prefer that "delivered" not mean "killed".). I'm not going to be having the support of my family in doing it, though (As you can see, Kevin doesn't seem like he's one of the other Foczkos who'll make aliyah, for example--and I pray that Kevin changes his mind before Jeremiah 8:1-6 applies to him for the worse.).

Meanwhile, I had a series of tweets regarding if I had a million dollars (especially because I have to plan more carefully lest I ever overdraw on what financial resources I have again--long story). So, you can see that I'm really planning for what's going to happen after December 2013 (since, as I stated, I and everyone else will be here for a while. Again, who am I to argue with a kohen who may well [although G-d forbid that he would] have to be killed for preaching Jesus in the Temple Courts? And I don't see the Temple being rebuilt for a while.). 

By the way, pray for Walter, especially for when those days come to pass. As I stated, I can only imagine that Walter will--at least in some ways--have life harder than this bat-Anusim v'Levit that I am--and I've had life pretty roughly. Also by the way, I have an About.Me page if you care to see more about me (and maybe consider offering me help in making aliyah--or at least getting a job and starting to save up to get my affairs concerning aliyah in order).

Why I'm No Longer Libertarian In Terms Of Comments, Replies, Etc. on My Videos, Blog, Etc.



In other words, I'm seriously done with allowing people to use freedom of speech, thought, etc. as a license to abuse and persecute me on my own social media forums.

Life's Looking Up...



   

This means that, if nothing else, I could have opportunies in social media if and when I graduate from UMBC.

Repost: Wrong Call, Twitter


"I think Twitter's approach is being very heavy-handed,'' he said. "They suspended my account without warning me. They didn't tell me for 24 hours why it had been suspended.''


NBC has racked up record ratings through the first couple days of the London Games, but also has faced harsh criticism online, largely from American viewers upset with tape-delayed coverage. Angry Olympic fans used the hashtag "nbcfail'' and even set up at least one parody account poking fun at the TV wait.
The network is streaming the events online, but that clearly isn't enough for some viewers who shelled out thousands of dollars for big-screen TVs and want their live coverage.
"If this Gary Zenkel doesn't want to hear from the many tens of thousands of customers he upset with his network's coverage, I think he's in the wrong job,'' Adams said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press.
When Twitter receives a complaint like the one against Adams, its support team does its own investigation before deciding whether to suspend the account.
Adams said he found Zenkel's email with a simple online search, but said he didn't grab it from an NBC website.
"His address is not a private email address,'' Adams said. "It's a corporate address. It's not his private email address. It's a corporate account. It's company information.''

I'm not watching the Olympics, anyway; and the only worth-it person this year on NBC at the Olympics is Bob Costas. Now I have one more reason not to give Anti-Semitic NBC any ratings: they're whiny. "If this Gary Zenkel doesn't want to hear from the many tens of thousands of customers he upset with his network's coverage, I think he's in the wrong job." 

By the way, unlike NBC, Fox News lets one contact them; and even the Fox News spouses who are public figures get involved--even if one doesn't like how they get involved. To be fair, for example, to Geraldo Rivera's wife, she did get involved when I had some complaints about her influence on Geraldo and her befriending Traci Lynn Johnson (Traci Lynn Barber by now, I suppose). She at least took my complaints seriously enough, even if she didn't find them legitimate, to respond to them. Furthermore, to be fair, she did--as I stated--influence a change a heart in me.


Back to the point, Twitter made the wrong call and gave an Anti-Semitic (with the exception of Bob Costas) and whiny network too much credence or kavod, or whatever you want to call it. Twitter, therefore, should give Guy Adams his Twitter account back (and so be if this blog entry gets me suspended from Twitter; I wouldn't support the Anti-Semitic NBC, who could've easily boycotted the IOC for refusing to remember the murder victims in Munich, anyway. Why Twitter did, I'll never know.).


Meanwhile and while I'm obviously calling for a boycott of all of NBC but for Bob Costas, I want to give one more plug to open and Philosemitic Fox News--and a shout-out for a happy seventh birthday to Sol Rivera (Geraldo's and Erica's daughter) and a happy ninth anniversary to Geraldo and Erica (Make this one last, Geraldo!).
