WHAT DO YOU DO? JUST WAKE UP IN BOSNIA, HERZEGOVINA, AND SAY, "HEY, LEMME SEARCH FOR JERRY JEFF WALKER'S 'MR. BOJANGLES'!"? HOW DO I KEEP UP WITH THAT
For those who aren't familiar with the story of Mr Bogangles [SIC]
Who knew. I thought Mr. Bojangles was an old black guy, who drank a bit, according to the lyrics of Jerry Jeff Walker. Well, it seems we've got the guy from the parallel universe - a white Mr Bogangles. He has also been called John Doe, "Skippy", and a litany of misspellings of his real name - Jimmy Naramore.
Jimmy, rni# 4984, has been booked into the county jail 108 times. His charges are mainly misdemeanors, like public drunk, public intoxication (isn't that the same), disorderly conduct, criminal tresspass, pedestrian soliciting a ride or business, carrying a knife, obstructing a highway, failure to appear, dui, reckless endangerment, vandalism under 500, and even criminal littering! Well he also has a couple of felonies too - grand larceny, agg burglary and agg assault. It appears this time, he was arrested on a warrant for failure to do right.
Oprah Winfrey AHHHHHHAAA time--and you say, 'ohhhhh, aha.' Email the YouTube. That's O.K., it is shit, really.
You know what I hate about posting things like that? that all the comments and it will be taken over by bugled and bingo bongo and it goes faster than the spread of the flu a public library keyboard. So, please, watch and go outside and take your smoke break as ordinary and not telling the people to work or to send around this crazy as some middle-aged mother tries to keep "in contact" with her daughter who left home last year and is now a fucking older guy, but that's OK. it is shit, really. poppers like use that homosexual when they have anal sex is a cheap high. it will make you feel sick to your stomach because for the few seconds of pleasure that makes you forget some terrible event of the day, swear to God, there is a bad karma attached to that exact thing. what goes up must be down. you thought you feeling good last night on your fourth jaegermeister, too, with the fucking redheaded / Balding, french-nailed/manicured, Moriah / manwhore, describing the Ardennes / crevice of your mudflaps / common throughout the polyester / wool your Givenchy / Pierre Cardin trousers / pants combination, did not ya? but at the breakfast table when you could barely keep toast and your wife / husband asked, 'why have not you called? "Danny and started talking about science project again, you get sick of guilt. Just like that. This is not the end of the world. But something will happen today, little to the body which will be an Oprah Winfrey AHHHHHHAAA time and you say, ohhhhh, aha. and then you'll have the house and swear to God, he somebody'll have riposted and it will slip "to your RSS reader, or some of Google Alert that you forgot to take them because it's such a pain in the butt for AHHHHAAA WHEN A TRIPLE OR Alcoholics Anonymous, yes, remember when you get the recovery sobre ... ? ok, Diana Ross / Billy Joel, Mom / Dad 's just going to drink a glass of white / wine feel like having a conversation now. This is what I mean, it's just that you are going to go! Just do not look at all. In fact, instead of taking the time to look, email the YouTube and displays argue that it is not in the public domain. I am asking them to take this fall.Tu sais ce que je déteste au sujet de détachement des choses comme cela? le fait que tous les commentaires et que ce sera repris par bugled et bingo bongo et ça va plus vite que la propagation de la grippe d'une bibliothèque publique clavier. Alors, s'il vous plaît, de regarder et aller à l'extérieur et de prendre votre pause de fumée comme ordinaire et ne rien dire à la population au travail ou à envoyer autour de ce fou comme certains d'âge moyen, la mère tente de garder «en contact» avec sa fille qui quitté la maison l'an dernier et qui est maintenant une putain de gars plus âgés, mais ce n'est pas grave. il est disponible merde, vraiment. poppers comme ceux que les homosexuels utiliser quand ils avoir le sexe anal, c'est un bon marché élevé. il vous fera sentir malade à votre estomac parce que, pour les quelques secondes de plaisir qu'il vous fait oublier quelques terrible événement de la journée, jure devant Dieu, il ya un mauvais karma, jointe à cette chose exacte. ce qui se passe doit être en place vers le bas. vous avez pensé vous de vous sentir bien la nuit dernière sur votre quatrième jaegermeister, aussi, avec ce putain de redheaded / Balding, french-nailed/manicured, Moriah / manwhore, en décrivant les Ardennes / crevasse de votre mudflaps / commune à travers le polyester / laine de votre Givenchy / Pierre Cardin pantalon / combinaison pantalon, n'a pas ya? mais à la table de petit déjeuner lorsque vous pouvait à peine tenir à toast et votre femme / mari a demandé, 'pourquoi n'avez-vous pas appelé? " et Danny commencé à parler de la science projet a encore une fois, vous aller vomir de la culpabilité. juste comme ça. ce n'est pas la fin du monde. mais quelque chose va se passer aujourd'hui, peu de chose à la caisse qui sera comme une Oprah Winfrey AHHHHHHAAA moment et vous dire, ohhhhh, aha. et alors vous aurez la maison de travail et jure devant Dieu, il somebody'll ont riposted et il va se glisser "à votre lecteur de flux RSS, ou certains d'alerte Google que vous avez oublié de les prendre parce que c'est une telle douleur dans le cul, pour AHHHHAAA MOMENT OU TRIPLE A OU ALCOOLIQUES ANONYMES, oui, souvenez-vous quand vous allez obtenir le recouvrement sobre ...? ok, Diana Ross / Billy Joel, maman / papa 'est juste va boire un verre de blanc / vin de se sentir comme avoir une conversation maintenant. C'est de quoi je parle, c'est juste que vous allez faire Allez-y! Juste ne pas regarder du tout. En fait, au lieu de prendre le temps de regarder, envoyez un courriel à la YouTube et affiche affirment qu'il n'est pas du domaine public. Je suis pour leur demander de prendre cette baisse.you know what i hate about posting stuff like this? the fact that everyone will comment and that it'll be picked up by bugled and bingo bongo and it'll spread faster than influenza on a public library keyboard. so, please, just watch this and go outside and take your smoke break like regular and don't say anything to the people at work or send this around like some crazy middle-aged mother trying to keep 'in touch' with her daughter who moved out of the house last year and who's now fucking some older guy but it's not serious. it's disposable crap, really. like those poppers that gay people use when they're having anal sex, it's a cheap high. it'll make you feel sick to your stomach because for the few seconds of pleasure that it makes you forget some awful event of your day, swear to god, there's bad karma attached to that exact thing. what goes up must come down. you thought you were feeling good last night on your fourth jaegermeister, too, with that fucking redheaded/balding, french-nailed/manicured, moriah/manwhore, outlining the bulge/crevice of your mudflaps/joint through the polyester/wool of your Givenchy/Pierre Cardin slacks/suit pants, didn't ya? but at the breakfast table when you could barely hold down toast and your wife/husband asked, 'why didn't you call?' and Danny started talking about the science project again you had to go throw up from guilt. just like this. it's not the end of the world. but something will happen today, some little thing at a checkout counter that will be like an Oprah Winfrey AHHHHHHAAA MOMENT and you'll say, ohhhhh, aha. and then you'll get home from work and swear to god somebody'll have it riposted and it'll come sliding' down your reader on some rss or google alert that you forgot to take down because it's such a pain in the ass, for AHHHHAAA MOMENT, OR TRIPLE A OR ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, YEAH, remember when you were gonna get sober...recovery? ok, diana ross/billy joel, momma/daddy's just gonna have a glass of white/wine to feel like having a conversation now. that's what I'm talking about, it's just gonna make you GO THERE! JUST DON'T WATCH IT AT ALL. IN FACT INSTEAD OF TAKING THE TIME TO WATCH IT, EMAIL THE YOUTUBE POSTER and claim IT'S NOT PUBLIC DOMAIN. I'm asking them to take this down.

Richey James: Manic Street Preachers [Interview + Nicky Wire]
Richey James: Manic Street Preachers [Interview + Nicky Wire]
RICHEY JAMES of Manic Street Preachers disappeared in February 1995 at age 26 and is assumed dead. “The alcoholic and anorexic James kept his word and vanished, perhaps affected by Kurt Cobain’s suicide” (Penguin Encyclopedia). It is probable that he jumped off the Severn Bridge into fast-moving currents. His car was found near the bridge. One of James’ last songs is about a photographer who killed himself. James had been very sick for a long time. He frequently mutilated himself with knives. “While most people are content to pass the time watching TV or reading a book, Richey would absent-mindedly carve up his arms with a knife” (Alan Cross, Over the Edge: The Revolution and Evolution of New Rock, p. 232). During an interview in May 1991, he carved the words 4REAL in his arm with a razor blade. He would also extinguish burning cigarettes on his skin. He was admitted to the Cardiff Hospital in the summer of 1994 because he feared that he was going insane.

Increased attention in social systems like the YouTube community follows particular, recurrent patterns that can be represented using mathematical models, a new study has found.The funniest 6 minutes you will ever see! Remember how many of these you have done!

Why are certain videos on YouTube watched millions of times while 90 percent of the contributions find only the odd viewer? A new study reveals that increased attention in social systems like the YouTube community follows particular, recurrent patterns that can be represented using mathematical models.he Internet platform YouTube is a stomping ground for scientists looking to investigate the fine mechanism of the attention spiral in social systems. How is it possible, for example, that one YouTube video of a previously unknown comedian from Ohio can be viewed over ten million times in the space of two weeks and 103 million times during its total two-year running time? [Because, believe me, I've lived in Ohio, unfortunately--Cleveland, FOR a Year-and-a-Half, AND There's Nothing Funny About Ohio At All... Nothing! THIS VIDEO BEING EXAMPLE OF THAT VERY PREMISE] The video was aired on the most popular television networks in America and the comedian Judson Laipply has meanwhile become a YouTube star. Social scientists, economists, mathematicians and even physicists are fascinated by this “herding”, as the herdlike behavior in social networks is often termed, on YouTube.Epidemic-like diffusion
Until two years ago, Riley Crane had been researching supraconductors at the University of California. More specifically, he was examining critical phenomena in quantum systems where, under the right conditions, minor interference can change the whole system. Similar phenomena can also be observed in social systems. This is what Crane now focuses on as a postdoctoral fellow at ETH Zurich’s Chair of Entrepreneurial Risks in the Department of Management, Technology and Economy (D-MTEC). In the latest edition of the scientific publication PNAS, he and his Professor Didier Sornette describe how the “herding” of YouTube users can be represented in simple mathematical models. Crane tracked viewer statistics for five million videos on YouTube for two years with the aid of systems he had programmed himself. In doing so, he was primarily interested in the films that had attracted the most attention, meaning the ones that had been viewed at least 100 times a day. Only 10 percent fell into this category.
Crane then subdivided these into three sub- categories: The first is “junk” videos, which generate a lot of attention unexpectedly, albeit only for a short period of time and which are of no interest as they do not trigger a self-organized development, a “herd instinct”, within the YouTube community; the second category, “viral” videos, is a different story. These videos spread across expansive social networks in an epidemic-like fashion, for example through recommendations via email, blogs and Internet links. In the PNAS publication, Crane cites a trailer for a Harry Potter film that enjoyed an enormous amount of attention through word-of-mouth advertising on the Internet alone as a prime example of this. The third category of videos, the “quality” videos, is not unlike the viral video group. Instead of a gradual rise to popularity, however, they cause a sudden burst of attention on account of their “quality”, their popularity spreading rapidly before gradually ebbing away. The videos of the tsunami in Southeast Asia in 2004 are prime examples of such videos.
Social processes according to physical laws
Crane compared the viewer statistics for “quality” and “viral” videos at the height of their public attention to the total number of viewers over the period of observation. “We illustrated the figures in diagrams and discovered that the graphs for the increase and decrease in viewers had a very characteristic form for both kinds of videos. The capacity of a video to become a mass phenomenon within the YouTube community can therefore be ascertained from the shape of the graph,” explains Crane. For example, he discovered that the fading of attention for viral videos can be described with the mathematics used to model aftershocks in earthquakes, so-called “Epidemic Type Aftershock” models. “I find it fascinating that a social system ostensibly works according to particular rules, just like a physical system, and therefore becomes mathematically comprehensible,” says Crane describing his interest in “sociophysics”. He used deterministic power laws to mathematically reproduce the phenomena observed on YouTube. These are scale-independent, meaning that the function’s basic properties also remain unchanged despite changes to the scale. His model can therefore be used singly to recognize developments that could lead to a mass phenomenon using tendencies in the system – in the case of YouTube, an increase in viewers for a particular video. And all this even before the development has been realized by a critical mass of individuals.
Recognizing potential “blockbusters” early
Crane’s results are especially interesting for marketing purposes. His model could be used, for example, to monitor online book sales in real time. By constantly comparing data, marketing experts could recognize which book has the makings of a blockbuster early on based on the sales graph. The critical point, the so-called “tipping point”, where a viral effect begins and a book’s potential actually leads to a blockbuster, could therefore be consciously provoked with the necessary marketing measures.
In actual fact, Crane and Didier Sornette, Professor of Entrepreneurial Risks in the Department of Management, Technology and Economics, are currently in negotiation with the Internet book seller “Amazon” to integrate their own system in the Internet platform. As the next step, the two scientists are looking to couple their model with existing mathematical ones from the field of epidemiology and thus hone and expand its significance. In the medium term, the two scientists have a kind of trend-monitoring center for the Internet in mind. This would enable phenomena in social systems on different web platforms to be recognized early. “Naturally, we would also eventually like to be able to explain why certain products make the tipping point in social systems whilst others do not. This is still a long way off, however,” admits Crane

Where is this guy's family ? Any brothers, sisters, etc ?
Sure he has family, but he has become the author of his own destruction, just like the rest of us, and I doubt they want him around.
Many families are forced to turn their kin out, because they get tired of being taken for granted, by a person who lies, cheats and steals at every opportunity. It could be a mental disorder, drug addiction, a person who is just plain evil, or any combination of the above.
Mr B needs at least 1 year in the county lockup every time he returns to 201 on a charge. At some point, maybe he will leave Memphis. He obviously doesn't get it, and my prediction is - he never will. The best we can hope for is that he leaves us.
I'm resurrecting my plea for donations to purchase bus tickets to San Francisco for all our "thugs"!
