Once in a lifetime / My girlfriend is better

 Hi Natty!  When I first saw that big suit, I thought "Once in a lifetime".  But he didn't wear a big suit in that video.  It certainly makes a statement though, and it's very well tailored.  You are beautiful.  I love you.

What Allah has given me is better than what they amass or offer

 Natty, I recognize those gardens.  When I was about 21, I went to Disneyland with 3 other guys, and we stopped by those gardens as we drove through LA.  I guess those guys were friends, but I wouldn't call them flowers.  

About an hour into Mary Unknown7's set, I took a snapshot of the stats of the stream, so check it out folks.  Those numbers didn't take into account the one connection I made to monitor the stream.  Did you folks think that I would run a stream and not make sure that it was working?  And what about the locals?  Are these stats supposed to be better than the face to face interaction I get with the locals?  Oh I get it, the people in charge of these statistics think that the locals here are just ignorant yokels who don't know how to use cell phones.  See the bullshit I have to put up with, folks?  The Internet has been treating me like this for DECADES already.  Screw 'em.  I'm not Trump, I don't care about situations like this.  What Allah has given me is far better than what they amass or offer.  If I lost this resource, I will find another like it elsewhere inshaAllah.  I'll just use misinformation like this as another excuse not to tour.  I'm too lazy to tour, anyway.  All the easier for me to protect Mary Unknown7.

The new stream address is http://s3.free-shoutcast.com:18276/

The stream wasn't working today

 Hi Natty!  How's life in sunny California?  I hope you don't mind keeping indoors.  There's always plenty to do, right?  Well, for me there certainly is.  I don't get bored very easily, I always have something to do.  Please do take care of your health and safety during these pandemic times.

I'm sorry folks, but the stream wasn't working today.  Whenever that happens, you would just have to log into Second Life and spy in on the karaoke joint to hear Mary Unknown7 sing, or perhaps you know someone who runs a live feed from the karaoke place.  I'm sure the stream will be up and running tomorrow inshaAllah.  If this problem persists, I will get an alternate stream and announce it here if/when I do.  I would rather use the karaoke stream, though.

The good news is, I think I found my Jap kids again!

Qur'an 20201130

 In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

5.  The similitude of those who were charged with the Mosaic Law but who subsequently failed is that of a donkey which carries huge tomes.  Evil is the similitude of people who falsify the Signs of Allah.  And Allah guides not people who do wrong.

6.  Say, "O you who stand on Judaism!  If you think that you are friends to Allah to the exclusion of humans, then express your desire for death, if you are truthful!"

7.  But never will they express their desire for death because of what their hands have sent on before them!  And Allah knows well those who do wrong!

8.  Say, "The death from which you flee will truly overtake you, then will you be sent back to the Knower of things secret and open, and God will tell you the things that you did!"

9.  O you who believe!  When the call is proclaimed to prayer on Friday, hasten earnestly to remembrance of Allah, and leave off business.  That is best for you, if you only knew.

10.  And when the prayer is finished, then may you disperse through the land and seek of the bounty of Allah, and celebrate the praises of Allah often, that you may prosper.

11.  But when they see some bargain or some amusement, they disperse headlong to it, and leave you standing.  Say, "That from the Presence of Allah is better than any amusement or bargain!  And Allah is the Best to provide."

Friday 62:5-11

Shame... or kittens?

 

Hi Natty!  How are you over there?  I saw this photo on Yahoo news, it sure looks like Venice Beach.  But there no homeless encampments.  Where do they go during a lockdown?  I hope you are keeping yourself safe and healthy, and isolating yourself from other people.

Before I released Lookie from the Collar of Shame a couple of days ago, I said to her, "If I take off this collar, will you promise me that you won't lick all your fur off?"  No response.  Again I asked, "If I take off this collar, will you promise me that you won't lick all your fur off?"  Again, no response.  For the third time I asked, "If I take off this collar, will you promise me that you won't lick all your fur off?"  The she meowed with an annoyed tone that said, "OK!  OK already!"  So I took off the collar.  A day passed, and guess what folks...  No, she didn't lick all her fur off.  Instead, she put another blister on her butt.  So I had to put the collar back on.  Don't worry folks, when the wound heals I'll take the collar off and keep giving her chances with the hope that she'll figure out that there's no need to over groom herself.  Her mother was a jealous bully, that's how Lookie became a nervous kitty.  Her mother since passed away.  I can understand how a mother's influence can terrorize a heart for its entire life.  Some people may argue that that is a mother's privilege to do so to her offspring.  But I have a nervous wreck of a kitty on my hands!  If I take her to the vet, the doctor will turn her into a drug addict and I don't want that.  I want Lookie to learn for herself that she's the boss cat now.  Anyway, behold the face of shame.

Could it be though that she's pregnant?  Bro is grown up now, maybe she's excited  that there's finally a man in the house.  I mean, cat.  She kept on trying to tell me something after the Asr prayer, then she went digging around in the empty boxes that I keep in the house for the cats.  I do want the kittens, if so.  Next I have to figure out how to juggle the living situation of the father.  I can't just let him pump out kittens without end, I just want one batch of healthy kittens from Lookie.  But I also can't just let Bro wander out everywhere as he pleases, because he would get killed.  Sigh.  One thing after another.

Here's another nice snapshot from the How does your avatar look today ? thread:

Meat pies

 Hi Natty!  How are you?  I hope everything is going well for you.  I want you to know that I love you with all of my heart, and I think of you always.  There's not much going on over here other than the usual.  I've had a serious craving for meat pies lately, so I've been collecting stuff for that project.  I didn't get any pastry dough though, I would have to go downtown for that but I'm too lazy to go.  Instead, I just use my regular dough recipe.  I don't have a good oven, so I cook foods that need to be cooked all over by deep frying.  At length, my meat pies look like curry pups.  But they're not curry pups, they are meat pies and taste like meat pies.  So I wouldn't give any of my meat pies to my parents, because they would call them curry pups, because they look like curry pups.  One day perhaps, I'll cook meat pies in that nice round shape with pastry dough but not today.

Miso rules my cooking right now, and I've become seriously hooked on it.  So my pie stuffing is ground beef, anchovy miso, potatoes, carrots, red hot chilli peppers, brown gravy powder and "halba campur" (mixed whole spices).

I love whole spice blend instead of powder, for a more intense flavor punch.  Would you like a meat pie?
