Unchurched

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010

An interesting term - ( Un-Churched ? – heard just now on RN ~ abc.net.au/rn) – Visit the spirit of things here – http://www.abc.net.au/rn/spiritofthings/ – Talks about the mega-churches not having “churchy-stuff” LIKE a cross, and stained glass windows

{ Insert blog post below } – { If you cant wait for the post, … follow the link above } – { other though bubbles? -???- none } – sorry, … you will have to listen to the audio -/- download to hear the little bit about the “Unchurched” term that inspired this blog post. – (Still moving boxes of stuff around from place to place)

Other interesting words found? – “raunchy old woman humour” in block-quotes below

Thank you, Marion Maddox. This was an edifying and terrifying program. I wish I didn’t need to know – but the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. Now I know why those saccharine-sweet girls at the garage sale I went to a couple of weekends ago weren’t responding to my raunchy old woman humour; they simply didn’t have a category for me.

Favourite Character – Dennis the peasant

Sunday, April 18th, 2010

Dennis was right - The form of government advocated by “Dennis the Peasant” in the famous Monty Python Movie “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” – (Who ever wrote this, .. Thankyou)

“I told you, we’re an anarco-sydicalist commune. We take it in turns to be a sort of executive officer for the week…”

GOOGLED – government idiots – isn’t defined yet, but these are close – Defining government idiots is really difficult. There is so much incompetance that it is plain to me that nobody in government can make decisions without a committee of consults providing $$$-advice-$$$ and $$$-reports-$$$, and, .. (Ranting? stop now)

GOOGLED – educated-idiots – Another little term to google – (Damn shame this url is no longer up) – http://biggovernment.com/tag/educated-idiots/ – The title sums up everything without long winded explainations.

THE COMMENT – (That spurred this post) here >>> http://grd.net.au/blog/?p=845&cpage=1#comment-586 <<<

Supreme executive power repressing the masses

TVPAPA movie content site is NASTY

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

TVPAPA movie content site is NASTY!

To view the content – you MUST complete a survey (Of some / ANY description) – and then enter you Mobile-Phone number. At this point you have now signed up to $6.60 Twice a week, and all you wanted was to view the movie content on NASTY http://tvpapa.com

I will disable the link to that site in the comments section. You may visit the site by copy and pasting the http://tvpapa.com url – Just to see what that site looks like.

Comment left on this site on Permalink – http://grd.net.au/Blog/?p=1044

CAUTIONARY WARNING;

Be vigilant against ALL websites – especially one that asks for your mobile phone number.

The comment “Watch_MoviesOnline” – is a good example of a NASTY website. The link points to “http://tvpapa.com/” – Which inturn – has a “WinPOPs”  underlying script / survey >>> Which (IF you want to see the “Movie-Content”) <<< you MUST complete the survey AND; Enter your mobile-Number.

The act of entering your mobile-number, signs you up to $6.60 – TWICE a week, (Even IF you use a prepaid phone, it will drain ALL monies from that account) – Worse still – if you have a phone on a plan – it just debits $6.60 (Twice-Weekly) to your monthly account – (All with YOUR approval – knowingly, or NOT)

AND; This will continue until you send SMS – Message “STOP” to 19722255

The survey site – that I visited was http://www.iqquizapp.com/au-4/phone.php# – while at the same time asking ‘How smart are you?’ – Its a trick – desgined to take you money.

The TERMS AND CONDITIONs – http://www.iqquizapp.com/au-4/terms.php

The other sites associated with this are – http://www.cpalead.com/

COMMENT:-  cpalead.com – Creates and Designs “Surveys” – [UPDATE-/-ADDED FURTHER COMMENT] – Tuesday 18 May 2010 – WEB-DESIGNERs use “Tools” LIKE cpalead, (AND; it is the web-designers, that set-out to trick people into handing over payment-device-information, what-ever you might be using), …

designed to TRICK the unwary into signing up for “STUFF you dont want” – Might be a good company to generate money  for unscrupulous website owner, but the methods used are QUESTIONABLE, (Legal? Yes, but still questionable, .. I would not consider cpalead Moral, .. – definitely NOT!) – Judgment has been made – I need not look any further into this company, but due to the nature of the web – I find that I need to continue reading STUFF from the likes of this lot. How trusting are you, when it come to this sort of thing? – Is it only the multi-media sites? No – but it is multi-media sites that have the most through-put of users, searching for entertainment. (I am starting to rant – time to finish!)

Might have to add a new category named ‘Scams’ – (This all becomes, a little ‘OFF-TOPIC’ – but hey, .. Its just a blog)

PS; AND; While I am on this topic – I found this page describing the difference between – Pathological Liar VERSES Compulsive Liar
