(Editor: I just lost today’s Coconut Telegraph and the politics section. I’m upgrading to a much better server plan and they said it would take 24 hours. I was on tech support 2 1/2 hours Monday, 2 hrs Thursday, and 1 1/2 hours today trying to get it to work properly. I don’t know what to tell you folks and there’s no way I could express my frustration after al this. Today I spent 3 hours putting together Fridays site. Boo hoo. And people ask me why i drink!
I’ll try to reconstruct it as best I can: |
![]() computers. 2 “/2 hours on tech support Monday, 2 hours on tech support Thursday, 1 hour on tech support Friday. All it got me is another upgrade in fees. When lstarted hosting was $20 a month now its $200 a month. GoDaddy promised me that all my website problems will be over. Somehow, l don’t believe them as they always seem to be able to squeeze more money from me. Deer viewers, If you should get a warning that the site is not safe, just bypass it as the site is migrating to a new improved site and the security certificate [SSL] is in flux for the next 24 hours.) |
[Tired of ‘Tipflation‘] If you feel like you’re being asked to tip practically everywhere these days, you’re not alone. In addition to the traditional venues — restaurants, barber shops, cabs — customers are being prompted to tip everywhere from convenience store counters to self-checkout kiosks at airports. Etiquette experts such as Thomas Farley — also known as Mister Manners — are calling the phenomenon “fipflaflonT “People are really feeling imposed upon,” Farley says. “We’re already living through inflationary times. Everything is crazy expensive. And on top of that, you’re being asked, every time you turn around, ‘How much would you like to tip?’ It feels pushy, it feels needy and almost every customer I speak with says, ‘Why aren’t businesses just paying people more?’” It’s a good question, but don’t hold your breath for an answer. Rather, take solace in the knowledge that there are still scenarios where etiquette experts say a tip is not required — even if you’re presented with a tablet that asks for one. |

[How to Keep it All] If you win the lottery for a Billion Dollars, automatically hide the ticket, then go to a government offlce and start a religion called The Church of the Holly Christian Orthodox Judaism Muslim Buddhism Sun Worshippers, International. Deposit the Ticket in the Vegas National Bank and get a Unlimited Credit Card and let the “Bank” keep the interest! Then go bank-ruptured in 10 minutes. |
![]() [Shark Week on Nafional Geographic] Nurse sharks do bite if a human is messing with thenfood supply. They are territorial. Been there and witnessed it. |
“Plant Based” is the newest meaningless marketing term used to dupe people who know very little about nutrition but who “kinda-sorta” want to eat better. Some things that are plant based: sugar, vegetable oils, flour, kid cereals, Jack Daniels, cocaine, heroin |

[Blackness] |’m fed up with the media trying to convert me to be Black. What do you see when you turn on the television? Black commercials, Black propaganda, Black music, Black sports, Black history month, Black lives matter, Black culture, a Black person replacing Abe Lincoln, Black person in Louis |V’s court, Black celebration of Jl.neteenth, Kwanza, the Black national arthem. Why would I want to be associated w’th 13% of the population who see tremselves as perpetual victims. Of the 13% o‘ the population that corporations are targeting, approximately 50.1% are on the government dole. |

[Pre-Google] How did we look things up between Webster’s Unabridged & Google? There were several sites, but I can’t recall what they were. One was Dog Pile, but I d0n’t think I ever used it. None of them were very accurate. You’d search for sofas and get Paris vacations! |
