    Most people listen to the radio while they're cleaning their house. Me on the other hand, I turn on your videos and let them play one after another so I can listen to the stories you tell while cleaning. Such a master at what you do with storytelling. 👍

    Rachel - Green eyes - In 1968 I met and fell head over heals in love with a wonderful little green eyed lady, she was the farmers daughter, and I was a farmers son so we had a lot in common. In 1969 while hippies were at Woodstock getting high and listening to some of the greatest music ever produced in these United States, I walked my green eyed lady down the isle, and the love that was between us lasted for 51 years and 4 days, ending a couple of years ago when she was taken from my arms by a deadly form of cancer. To this day, when I see green eyes, my heart still breaks at my great loss that day. Now I find that cancer has attacked my old body, but doctors say that if there was a good form of cancer to come this would be it. They took the cancerous kidney from my side and say they got it all. Time will tell but man those wonderful green eyes, GOD how I miss them, and the lovely lady who they belonged to. Oh but it was a great 51 years and 4 days....

      One last thing, He makes TONS of mistakes. We ALL do. THAT is what we learn our most valuable lessons from. You don't see them in these videos, nor that what you are watching, is a composite of many individual takes, all put together to look like one cool smooth "almost" SEAMLESS take. Look carefully and you CAN spot the seams, or most of them...This is achieved by using a pre-written script, which I'm sure he rehearses for hours, maybe days, and a process called "Editing." It's All about EDITING. That's where the real skill and magic is done. Plus using powerful software - probably "DaVinci Resolve" which is one of the BEST video editing software programs "on the planet", and which you can get a completely FREE edition (No B.S.) which is awesome & superior to many of the top ranking paid video editing software. The catch is it takes more time to learn than most other free or paid software/apps. Time learning a VERY useful new skill is time BEST spent. (and there are lots, check them out if you like and are interested in "Lookin' Good".)
      You might download it yourself, watch the tutorials on how to use it and what it does, and in time, you might learn just what goes into making a professional looking video for UA-cam or anywhere else, but better yet you will be capable of doing it yourself or make money by doing it for others. You can do this and get started for free. Then perhaps YOU might have a story of your own to tell, and a means to tell it - Who knows one day you could very well Blow everyone away! --Just a suggestion.

I myself tried to become a part of law enforcement and after that didn't fall through, on my way from the redwood city police department I walked into the San Jose Marines office to apply, and I did this because of my niece and nephew to be a positive role model for them.

That's ok, I'll just watch the other ones when I really want to do so! I also love it when John laughs at something in the middle of a sentence. Especially when he keeps trying to keep a straight face but continues to laugh! It's even better when he does his ads for the sponsor! Love it! I really do love the stories too!

      In the San Francisco Zoo there was once a Siberian Tiger I believe if I remember correctly was Katya. There were three young men who decided to taunt her and throw things at her and generally disrespect her which you should not do with any tiger but especially this one. Because she vaulted over the 12 - 20 ft wall (I can't remember the footage) and attacked and killed one of the young men. Everyone in the area ran to hide in the food shack. Eventually Katya was killed. It was terrible but it made me think that you should always respect these magnificent and powerful animals. It was a shame the young man who held back from taunting her was the one killed and that that beautiful animal was killed. My son met one of the young men in prison and asked "What were you thinking?" And he admitted how stupid and disrespectful they were.

      @@jordanrogers8185okay, so. Today’s word is, sarcasm. Sarcasm is the caustic use of words, often in a humorous way, to mock someone or something.[1] Sarcasm may employ ambivalence,[2] although it is not necessarily ironic.[3] Most noticeable in spoken word, sarcasm is mainly distinguished by the inflection with which it is spoken[4] or, with an undercurrent of irony, by the extreme disproportion of the comment to the situation, and is largely context-dependent.[5] Understanding the subtlety of this usage requires second-order interpretation of the speaker's or writer's intentions; different parts of the brain must work together to understand sarcasm. This sophisticated understanding can be lacking in some people with certain forms of brain damage, dementia and sometimes autism,[15] and this perception has been located by MRI in the right parahippocampal gyrus.[16][17] Research on the anatomy of sarcasm has shown, according to Richard Delmonico, a neuropsychologist at University of California, Davis, that people with damage in the prefrontal cortex have difficulty understanding non-verbal aspects of language like tone.[18] Neuroscientist David Salmon at the University of California, San Diego, stated that this type of research could help doctors distinguish between different types of neurodegenerative diseases, such as frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer's disease.[18]
      In William Brant's Critique of Sarcastic Reason,[19] sarcasm is hypothesized to develop as a cognitive and emotional tool that adolescents use in order to test the borders of politeness and truth in conversation. Sarcasm recognition and expression both require the development of understanding forms of language, especially if sarcasm occurs without a cue or signal (e.g., a sarcastic tone or rolling the eyes). Sarcasm is argued to be more sophisticated than lying because lying is expressed as early as the age of three, but sarcastic expressions take place much later during development (Brant, 2012). Therefore, the conclusion is, you have brain damage and are possibly severely autistic.

    Rail bridge abandoned? Look at the top of the rails. If they are fairly shiny, it’s being used. If very rusty, they probably aren’t being used.
    Common sense, folks.
    Great stories well told! Thanks for posting these vids!

    • @CivilEngineerWroxton
      @CivilEngineerWroxton 2 роки тому

      That’s exactly what I was thinking about. Just look at how polished-looking the tops of the rails look. Just as you said, if they look shiny and polished from the wheels of trains going over them and braking on them, then it is an active rail line. Also, you can put your ear down on one of the two rails for a few seconds and listen for slight ringing or rumbling sounds. If you hear or feel anything in the rail there is a train quite close and you should get out of the way and completely off of the rail bed.
      I always thought that this was common sense because I was taught this in elementary school way back in the mid 1970’s. Also, just walking out onto a train trestle is NEVER a good idea, especially at night. And looking for some urban legend monster like these two were is just stupid. You are looking to just die, but it won’t be because the supposed monster kills you. It will be like what these two ended up having happen. The man not ending up dead is pure survival mode on his part since he held onto the side of the trestle until the train passed. She just panicked and couldn’t hang on and ended up struck by the train. It’s very sad and tragic, but not surprising in such instances.
      So, it being said that hundreds of people have been killed on this trestle over the decades since this trestle was constructed is not surprising. Certain people just seem to have no common sense. STAY OFF OF THE TRESTLE.

We would build forts and go hiking in the mountain etc. Once I seen a very old passenger steam engine train. On the side it said tours of Gettysburg. The people waved and when we would see freight trains the engineers would always wave. There was no trussel bridge but we were not very old so probably not the safest thing in the world. I'm so glad I had the freedom to do things outdoors when I was a kid. I wasn't into video games or staying in the house. It was the early 90s and a lot of things were different then.

      I agree. Some slime person is making lots of money off of John’s videos. He does all the work and they reap a lot of cash from it. His struggle has officially begun. This is the exact same thing that happened to the “What’s Up With Dad” series made several years ago and its creator ended up having several other “creators” reaped tons of money from putting pirated copies of his videos. The original creator was doing extremely well and making a good living off of his vids, but the pirated copies ended up pulling many of the viewers away from his channel and he just about ended up out on the street because of the piracy. But then he found a way to prevent this from happening in his future material. This made him be able to make a living from his own work and it was virtually impossible to pirate his work. I was glad to hear this when it was posted because pirating is no different than stealing money from someone that does a lot of work and another person copies their work and makes a bunch of money from the work they copy.
      NO ONE should ever copy other people’s work and make money from it. So, Mr. Ballen, I hope you see these copies and can report them to YT and they will suspend the channels that do this. I hate to see anyone ripping you off.

    I am your listener who thought you were joking us with a great and hilarious prank followed by a very creative solution to apply.
    To my chagrin😂, I went south on ya the very first time I tuned in. I was laughing my head off. I thought you 😮 were applying the funny prank and solution to our children, to my children. I’m embarrassed 😂😮to say that is what was so funny. After I posted my appreciation for your humor I realized you were talking about the “like button”. The whole prank was about our dear,like b😂utton. Not about my children, what kind of demented mother am I anyway? 😅 My children,(child), would have known it was all in good fun.
    I thought you shared my twisted sense of humor. What I did do instead was embarrass myself. I won’t make that mistake again and I won’t behave that way again either. I was off and running, thrilled that you would make such a perfect joke. Which is not what you said. You never mentioned kids at all. Duh! That would have been so politically incorrect and perhaps professional suicide. Thank goodness you are sane.
    I do appreciate your straight shooting , no nonsense style. I June tire sense of humor. I hope the like button takes it as well as my son would have 😊😅

    Actually much of Siberia gets quite warm in summer, albeit for only a few weeks

    • @xuploads
      @xuploads 2 роки тому

      Siberia has a solid 3 months of summer where the daytime highs are 20-25C (70-80F) with a couple months of spring and fall temperatures on either end. The 6 months from April-September have a climate very similar to that of the US east coast. The lack of sunshine, however, makes nighttime temperatures significantly colder than during the day. Even during the summer when it's often hot and humid in the daytime, it drops off to 0-10C (40-50F) at night. The winters, which last about a full 6 months from October-March, are of course bitterly cold. The cold nights and winters have a lot to do with Siberia's proximity to the sun. For example, in February Siberia averages just 2 hours of sunlight per day.
