Worry in life is very much like a rear-view mirror when driving.

Oh sure, it can be very handy from time to time when changing lanes but most of the time, there isn't a damn thing you can do about what you see in it. And it can distract you from watching the road directly in front of you.

My Favorite Randy Rainbow of all time.

If you don't find this fabulous and funny, I'm probably not someone you want to follow.

Please Note:

I'm just a person on the internet.

Don't take ANYTHING I say as truth or fact on my say so alone.

Certainly, don't base your life choices on my CoSo dribbling!

That is all, carry on!

Do you want to know more about me?

You can hear me give a PodCast interview telling you about my past.

The Good, The Bad and The Drunk Slutty.

Good morning CoSo.

In General (and in particular) Life is pretty damn good once you stop to realize the Alternative...

People who are hard core MAGA supporters would absolutely believe and agree that Rorschach was the "Good Guy"

Okay so that was freaky.. I submitted a bug report to an open source project last night, and then this morning I did a search to see if anyone else had seen this bug and had a workaround...

And search results came back with just one real relevant hit..

My bug report from yesterday evening

I'm for a flat tax...

Everyone (including corporations and banks) should have to pay a set percentage of their net worth in tax.

i.e. The people / corporations who hold 90% of the Nation's wealth should be paying 90% of all taxes...

This is my common approach to attempt to redefine the concept of a "Flat Tax".

Each pays a flat percentage of their net worth.

(This only works if corporations and private banks are included)

My favorite add in for Visual Studio 2022 is Farticus :

Plays a random Fart sound on a build failure, so even a failure invariably makes me smile and laugh!

So how do I deal with issues of current events that presage trouble or possible wars?

I can absolutely enjoy environmental mood music without thinking my Chakra's Quantum Fiberation will be improved...

Enjoying the schadenfreude, I can be small that way!

If what you do doesn't matter ...

then the only thing that matters is ...

What you do!

Really Microsoft, you have three different types of "Color" classes and usages, with 75% overlap between them?

`Windows.UI.Color`

`Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Media.Color`

`System.Windows.Media.Color`

Good Morning CoSo

#20Days20Foods

Day 20.

FINAL DAY! And as I planned from day 1, my final day will be the same as my first day (honestly I could easily have made my first day be EVERY day, for how much I like it)

Started watching Blue-eyed Samari last night on Netflix

I really liked the first episode.

"PEACHES!"
