The No-Nonsense Blog

Hey, everyone.  Just wanted to post this small update on what's been happening. First off, as people know, Father's Day is tomorrow, and I wanted to give my Dad something.  However, he is currently in a nursing home, so there was only one thing I could give him—a visit from me.  (That was a surprise for both of us, considering that I have a downright fear of hospitals, ever since I was treated for kidney pain.) Secondly, I would like to inform all that I am currently re-creating what the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game  calls a  Tri-God Deck , which focuses on summoning the ultimate Egyptian God Card : " The Creator God of Light, Horakhty ".  I have just recently compiled all the cards within the list, except for "Horakhty" itself (because it is only legal in the Japanese version of the card game). Furthermore, I visited a new website, created by one of my friends on YouTube:  LoveandHeartbreak , who apparently became sick of YouTube deleting her vi...

Hey, everyone.  Just wanted to blog about everything that's been happening, and I hope to blog about more. First off: the last 3 entries I wrote about my past: I will not apologize for anything I've written in those recent entries, because I needed to get what was bugging me about my life off my chest, and now that I have, a burden has been lifted like never before. Now, for some updates: Bushwick Job Center is still a pain in my gut, since they keep bludgeoning me with receritification meetings, and right now, I can't stand it, since they're not fulfilling their end and at least attempting  to get me a job.  So, as long as I am unemployed and declared unfit to work, I am going to have to prove them wrong. Which brings us to Update #2: Since no one is hiring at all , I am going to pursue my dream of running my own business.  What am I doing, you may ask?  Odd Jobs.  That's right.  Simple odd jobs around the neighborhood, and I'm hoping to get ...

Hello, everyone.  I'd decided to blog about a recent update on the War on Terror. At last, it is over—but at great cost: many of our troops and soldiers have paid the ultimate price, and those who survived have finally come home. With that said, I'd like to express my feelings of regret and disgust over the fact that we'd declared a war that only rewarded us with bloodshed, tears, and sadness that can never be healed.  Everyone in my family feels that President George W. Bush declared war for his own personal gain, to make the former President Bush (his father) proud of him for at least making such an effort to bring peace to our world.  In the end, he only wrought pain on us here in the U.S., and tore open a wound in Iraq that cannot be easily healed. At least, President Obama kept his word and brought the survivors of the War on Terror back onto American soil, and for that, I am eternally grateful, but, again, it was at a great cost. R.I.P. to all those who lost...

Hello, everyone. I know this is rare, having one update on top of the next, but I'd just wanted to share my thoughts with you on a new card that the  Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game  is currently planning to put into production.  (And, if we're lucky, fans of the  Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game  will also have the pleasure of collecting this card.) What is the card, you ask?  Well, for those who remember the  Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Monsters TV series , there was one monster that was never conceived as a card, and it was created by fusing the 3  Egyptian God Monsters  into 1 being.  That being was known as " The Creator God of Light, Horakhty ". Well, hang on to your Duel Disks, fans, because that very monster is now being released in the  OCG  as a trading card—and the seventh one with a  Special Victory Condition , to boot. For those who may get confused about the effects of this card, let me break them down for you.  Fi...

Hello, everyone. I'd just like to take the time to express my feelings over certain customs that seem to be happening around this time of year. As you know, Christmas is less than a month away, and I've been seeing a lot of people seemingly abandoning or trying to avoid saying the words, "Merry Christmas".  I understand that very few people are Christians, or even Catholics, but I see nothing wrong with saying "Merry Christmas". In order to avoid mentioning the name that sparked the word "Christmas", I keep hearing "Happy Holidays" everywhere I go, and between you and me, that is what disgusts me.  "Happy Holidays" just doesn't appeal to me as much as "Merry Christmas". So, I'd like to suggest something to anyone who reads this: Whenever you're walking down the block and you meet someone, try saying, "Merry Christmas" instead of, "Happy Holidays".  You'll keep Christmas alive...

If you thought the Fellowship of Light had hung up their wands after defeating the "Darkness Before the Dawn", think again, because the Legacy lives on. Set four years after the final battle in "Darkness Before the Dawn", it is revealed that Heatheria Winchester and her brothers, Nathaniel and Remington, have left Melania to attend the Doloria School for the Gifted and pursue their individual dreams. However, just as Princess Luanne is about to do the same, an amnesiac young girl is suddenly—and literally—dumped onto her doorstep, which begins a new adventure for a new group of Chosen Ones. With Princess Luanne as their mentor and guide, this new Fellowship of Light, officially called the "Dragon Warriors", must rise to the challenge of defeating Evil once when it resurfaces to fulfill its old goals of four years ago to destroy the world and re-create it anew. But only if they find the seven "Charms of Armageddon" and defeat the plans of ...
