Hey Bloggers, and so I am still finding myself in this City of Munich wondering whether to blog or not to blog and attempting to blah blog my travails and travels throughout this city. And these travels are giving me a great excuse to use that camera whose only purpose seems to be to collect dust these days and take those tourist photos that I usually see other blogggers do out there in bloggerland. And those photos that are posted in this blog have been sitting around for a while now as I have been waiting to attempt to post them at random in my blogaholicness. And I took one of those Munich Third Reich Walking tours to visit the old haunts of Adolf Hitler and his swastika hakenkreuz Deutsche Arbeiter parti, Nazi party the other day to the places of the Braune Hause Führerbau, Hitlers powerbase and office building, which is now a music conservatory, the Königsplatz where those Hitler mass rallies used to take place, and the Feldherrnhalle, some big plaza outside on the Odeonplatz, where even more Hitler rallies took place that has a big statue of lions on it that reminds me of those lions at the New York Public Library in New York City. And there is what is a called a nazi putsch memorial there where people were required to salute with a Hitler Gruß, Hitler greeting zieg heils when one passed by. And then there is the big huge Hofbräuhaus beer hall where Hitler used to have his attempt to take over the world meetings there. And Munich seems to be the beer capital of the world. And I did not know Munich was the birth place and the capital of Nazism. And there are no signs of Hitler and his war to be found here on the streets anymore except in museums hidden away from a grim and dark time for Germany and its history. And then there was this party the other day at der Akademie der Bilden Künste Müchen zu ihrem 200 jährigen Jubiläum, some big party for Das Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin wird 18 und präsentiert das Heft über das 850 jährige München in der 200 jahrigen Akademie: Grund genug für ein großes Geburtstagfest. Some big birthday party for Munich, the Academy Art School and the Dutch Times Magazine. And what an event and a cultural world away it can be for me to see. And those photos above are of the Olympiapark Stadium Olympic Tower, this really big park that was built for the 1970 Olympic games where Palestinan terrorists took the Israeli team hostage during the Olympic games, a grim day for Munich. And that other photo above is of the BMW Welt, the BMW World buildng next to the Olymic Tower. And that BMW Welt building is a design and work of art in itself that seems to be over the top with its beautiful architektonisches, and that beautiful building seems as if it just reeks of geld and money. And those other photos are of that seemingly main central tourist destination of the Marienplatz square Mariensäule column of the virgin and its Glockenspiel Clock in the centre of Munich. And I am not sure if that building is one of the many buildings built by the King Ludwigs and his castles that are to be found everywhere throughout this city of Munich. And then there is the photo of the U Bahn und die S Bahn Müchen Innerraumnetz Tram, the subway train stations for Munich whose system management seem to be run by the MVG. And their train system seems different from that police state of a train system in New York City known as the NYC MTA Metropolitan Transit Authority Metropolitan Terrorize its riders system, as it seems as if one an actually ride the MVG tram for free in Munich and that die fahrkarte, fare card tcket is not even needed, though random checks are done by the ticket control polizei. And there seems to be no polizei police to be found in this Munich subway system of Munich, a stark contrast to the millions and billions of subway police that are to be found as part of the NYCMTA subway and transit system. And a sense of freedom and humaness from oppression it can be to ride the MVG MünchenTram in Munich, maybe. And there are more pohots that I would like to blah blog in my bloaholicness of this city, a world and cultural difference away from that city of New York that I usually reside in. And those words and photos to blag more about are passing me now and I can only blog have a great travelling day. And what, if anything does this have to do with a No Police State?
Friday The Thirteenth
And it just occured to me from looking at the date on this computer, that tomorrow is Friday the 13th according to that Gregorian Calendar. And how many times throughout the year does that supposedly bad luck number occur throughout the calendar year. And I realize that from blah blogging on this blog for over a year now that some dates, days, holidays and times just keep repeating themselves throughout the year, almost as if it becomes the same day, different year. And so the following is a post that I posted on this blog sometime ago when it was Friday the thirteenth, Good luck:
Again I seem to be finding myself running out to things to blah blog about. And I find myself writing about events and a lot of holidays just to come up with ideas of something to write about for this blog. And how do the other bloggers in the blogosphere do it, especially the bloggers with a thousand blogs. Again I can barely maintain one blog, yet alone four or five blogs as I see a lot of others bloggers maintain. And so today the thought of the day is another holiday is here, or a significant date on the calendar has arrived. The day after tomorrow (not the movie), is Friday the 13th. Are you superstitious? Can you see things from beyond and out of the ordinary? If you are superstitious you might want to consider not getting out of bed or leaving home, for isn’t the number 13 suppose to be considered bad luck? According to the Secret Language of Birthdays, the most misunderstood card in the Tarot is the 13th card of the Major Arcana, Death, which rarely is to be taken literally but signifies a letting go of the past in order to grow beyond limitations, metamorphically. Those born on the 13th of the month are ruled by the number 4 (1+3=4), and by the planet Uranus which is both erratic and explosive. The number 4 typically represents rebellion, idiosyncratic beliefs and a desire to change the rules. the number 13 is a powerful number which does carry the responsibility of using its power wisely or inviting self destruction. Well that is the number 13, but what about Friday the 13th, what does that mean? Or maybe you would want to leave home this day, but watch out for black cats, broken mirrors, ladders and cracks in the sidewalk. Happy Friday the 13th.
Von München Bayern
And this is another one of those posts I am attempting to blah blog with a bunch of photos to go along with it from that place I am finding myself in at the moment, München Bayern, according to that postcard I am looking at at the moment. And I guess that would be Munich, Germany in English. And those photos that are placed in this entry from above are of the Englischer Garten, some really big park in the middle of Munich. And that garden seems as if it can be sorme sort of paradise on earth with people swimming without clothes in its streams, that man above sheparding his sheep, that King Ludwig tombstone placard above, some Chinese looking temple Chinesischer Turm beerhouse,and beer gartens and beer houses of what seems like every other single step along the way of this gardens path, as I guess this place of Munich is known for its beer. And I guess there is more I could blah blog about of Munchen on this day and those words could be passing me at this moment. And whatever else it is I could think to blahg about on this day I could only think have a great blogging day.
These Greeting Cards
Now these Photo Cards sound like something I could use in my blogaholicness as one of those travellers who are atttempting to blog their vacation travels. As I could be one of those vacation bloggers at the moment as I attempt to blah blog away from München Germany, which is not my usual blogaholicness location of that City of New York. And if you happen to be looking for business cards, sympathy cards, greeting cards, 2008 calendar cards, birthday cards, holiday cards, Christmas cards, recycled cards and just about any other type of business greeting cards, CardsDirect is there for you.

And you can actully write what you would would like to say on the front and inside of the card. And that photo of their birthday cards above looks really cool. And with their photo and custom greeting cards, I could put some of those vacation photos that I am taking at the moment with this camera to put on the front of their customized greeting cards and send to the business, family and friends. And what better way to share a greeting with someone than with a photo card with a personalized greeting. And I guess in these travels I would write something like “Greetings From Munchin”. And at CardsDirect, they can help you with all the greeting cards you could be looking for. They are all cards all the time.
Grüße aus Munich
And somehow I have found myself on the other side of the world this day from that City of New York that I usually dwell in, to the city of München, Munich, Germany on one of those travail vacations that I usually blah blog about. And I thought to attempt to blahg my vacation travail travels as I usually see those other bloggers do out there in bloggerland. And everything seems different over here in Munichland. And it is the language that I do not really understand, and even the computer that I am blogging on in my blogaholicness seems different with keys, symbols and letters placed everywhere different on the keyboard that I am not used to viewing on my usual computer that I use in my blogaholicness. And so I thought to post a photo of my travels throughout this foreign land to me. And that photo above is of the polizei in Munich. And how funny it is to me as one of those wayfaring travelling tourists to ask the polizei if they could take a photo for my camera. And they did, and how amazing to me. And in New york I am not sure if I think of the police as officer friendlies. And here as a tourist, they could seem officer friendly, and I am not sure as they carry guns all the same. And the polizei police seem to be way more fewer and far between in Munich than in New york, where the police seem to be located every other step and a bazillion police for every civilian. And as in Munchen it seems as if I could go a whole day outside without seeing one polizei, unheard of in that police state of New York where one sees a police every single step outside it seems. And what freedom could feel like if there were no polizei at all on planet earth at all, or at least no guns on planet earth. And this photo was taken at the Streetlife festival 2008, Corso Leopold, Ludwig und Leopoldstrasße, on Leopald Street as I would say in engish, whatever that phrase could mean. Die längste autofreie Flaniermeile der Stadt mit Schwabings Kunstboulevard, whatever the phrase cuold mean in English also. And that festival was really cool to see, of more photos I would like to post of it. And I am not really sure what else I can blah blog about in this post except to write have a great travelling day wherever one may be on planet earth and also, and what does this have to do with a No Police State?
The Allegiance
And I am not sure if I blah blogged about that pledge of allegiance thing before because I have been blogging on this blog for quite a while now and this blog wants to confuse me sometimes. And that “I pledge allegiance to the flag, of the United States of America. For which it stands, one nation, under God with liberty, and justice for all…”. Hey bloggers, what the heck does that phrase mean. Does wikipedia have an entry for that word allegience. As I remember having to put my hand over my right shoulder or someting like that and having to say this speech every single day throughout school in America with a whole class of people as if it were a scene right out of Geroge Orwells nineteen eighty four book. And then there is that ROTC military militia mal militant dress in green, wear the same uniform stand straight in a line and wear a gun class thing that one is and was required or maybe not required to take in high school institutions insituting and programing the minds of one and training one with guns as a child to become violent. What the heck is that all about. And what does ROTC mean anyway. And this allegience thing seems to reach far and with its outreach to whole groups and populations of people and minds that are sort of told to worship the state, whoever and whatever that state may be. And what if one does not raise their right hand in honor of this system for some reason or another. What would George Orwell have to say about this nationalism or ism. And who or what is a conscientious objector who is objecting to what. And who is that Big Brother who is watching you and for what reason. And what does this have to do with a No Police State?
This Hobby
And every so often, one may find themselves looking for something to do in the recreational department for sports and hobbies. And there are seemingly a ton of different things to do to entertain ones self. And if you like bird watching, watching the stars, astronomy or any other hobbies that use some sort of scopes or other vision aides for that sport, you can find Night Vision Scopes, brand name optics, gears for your hobby, and a big selection of binoculars, night vision telescopes, flashlights, tripods, digital camera binoculars and more at Optics Planet.com. They offer a whole range of products for sports and hobbies. Their website has lots of categories, products and accessories for hobbies at great low prices. Please try and remember to be kind to planet mother earth. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.
Die Unterfahrt
Now that’s interesting. Somehow I found myself going to see the band Sex Mob perform last night. And Sexmob is composed of musicians Steven Bernstein, Briggan Krauss, Tony Scherr and Kenny Wollesen. They are from New York and are on their seemingly world tour playing their music throughout Europe at the moment and I just happen to find them there playing their music at this jazz club Unterfahrt last night. And their music rocks. And the Unterfahrt is this really cool jazz club thats actually in Munich and could easily be in New York City somewhere with its cool jazz scene of the musicians that play there. And I took a photo of them playing their music that I wanted to post in this blog posting, and being that I am blah blogging at the moment in some sort of unusual elements and surroundings of some sort of travel and travails at the moment, I did not post that photo in this blog posting as I do not really know how to blah blog on this computer I am using at the moment. And ditto: I was actually able to post a video of that Unterfahrt performance on my YouTube page. And so I hope to post that other photo of that Unterfahrt performance at some point maybe. And regardless of that photo, have a great music day.
Work
Work, what does that word mean. Well, I think it means to go to work at some job somewhere maybe. And then there’s the work boot. And I have seen many of people wearing this type of footwear on planet earth. And those combat boots can make a stylish statement on the streets and sidewalks sometimes also. And if you are looking for some boots, Work Boots USA has work boots, safety boots, construction boots, steel toe boots, waterproof boots, black boots, classic hiker boots, Oxford boots and more. They offer brand name boots such as Converse, Danner, Wolverine, Rocky, Cat and more. At Work Boots USA you can find all the highest quality boots at great low prices for all your working boot needs. Peace on earth and goodwill to all mankind.
Gone Fishin
Hey Bloggers, and in the midst of wondering about how the economy… a word that seems to have the letters money in it, the recession, the depression, the free, the not so free, the oppressed, the rich, the poor, the bad, the good, the evil, the blessed, the cursed, the wicked, the righteous, the strangers, the weak, the strong, the wise, the foolish, the living, the dead, the bureaucracies, and everyone else in between of the world are doing, I am off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of oz, or gone fishin, on a mission, or at least going fishing out of town from this town of New York City that I usually reside and dwell in. And I may become one of those travellers wandering around being the tourist that I sometimes find myself blah blogging about. And I have no idea of how my blogaholicness may be during this time of travail. And what if I suffer blogaholicness withdrawal if I am unable to find one of those computer inventions to blog my web 2.0 user generated content social media blogholicness, who knows. And what was life like before the age of the internet and blogging anyway. And I would like to attempt to be one of those bloggers who blog their vacations bloggers, as I sometimes find myself reading about their vacations out there in bloggerland. And how do those other bloggers, a million and seemingly bazillion other bloggers blog their travels and vacations all the time is new to me. I could maybe use one of those internet gurus and online how to blog your vacation tutorials to figure it out maybe. And however this time may be, have a great gone fishin, travail travelling vacation day.
No Police State
