"Marijuana smoke smoke contains a similar range of harmful chemicals to that of tobacco smoke (including bronchial irritants, tumor promoters and carcinogens. As inhaled smoke comes into contact with airway and lung before being absorbed into the bloodstream, it is likely to affect the respiratory system. Risk of respiratory effects from inhaling marijuana smoke are heightened by the more intensive way in which marijuana is smoked...
Do you think this is extreme and a fantasy? I would be the first one to agree with you. If this or any part of this is done, I believe the smiles you don’t see anymore would come back. There would be less crowded roads and highways. It would be less crowded everywhere. The air would be clean. Can you imagine looking up at night and seeing the stars again? Did you know there is so much pollution that your kids have never seen the stars at night the way it was in the 50s? Can you imagine drinking the water out of the faucet in a real glass instead of a plastic bottle? Can you imagine getting gas at your local gas station and seeing a High School kid named John instead of Abdul working the cash register? Can you remember when you heard the name Mohamed you thought of a Heavy Weight Champion instead of death or a bomb blast somewhere? Gas would be $49.9 cents a gallon the way its supposed to be. People would trust one another again. Families would stay together instead of being torn apart and ruined by alcohol, drug abuse and teen pregnancy. Honesty and morals would be a mainstay and the thing to do. Love would be what real love is supposed to be about and not just a passing desire for a few years or until you are tired of one another. Marriage would be when, “Through sickness and health” meant just that. The perfect family where Dad works and Mom watches the kids just might reappear. Maybe the kids would be outside playing in the yard instead going on the internet or playing video games. Just maybe a movie would be shown without a gun or death in it. Yes, and to all you people that will say this country was founded by certain principles, your right but most of those principles don’t exist anymore. You are right though, I would be the first to tell you the old words to the Constitution are there but Lawyers and corruption have changed and twisted the words to make them be whatever they want them to be. It seems we are so busy fixing all the world problems we are not watching what is happening in our own back yard. Our country is growing faster than our coping skills can handle it. Maybe it would take some tough decisions and limit setting to fix things but right now the United States is not United. Right now, it has no future. If you think it does, you have been blinded by all the lies and manipulation. If the United States continues on the path it is going, well you think about it. Project a little into the future…You will see what I mean and if you don’t, may God bless you. You are going to need it.
The Pedophiles want the kids to know this stuff at a really early age.. Can you guess why? I don't think I have to say why.. Disney is the best place to start.. I don't have to explain.. Grammar schools is a learning place.. Why not there.. Change rules and laws, sure why not.. Marriage is next... A fifty year old man marring a 9 year old girl.. It happens in Saudi Arabia why not here.. All this will happen in the future and its starting now... We live in a sick world and its getting sicker by the minute...
In the TV series "Yellowstone" I hope the Humane Society is paying attention.. Kevin Costner shoots a horse in the first 5 min. of Episode one...
This upstanding American Citizen was setting an example for his kids.. I'll bet his Mom and Dad are so proud of him.. I guess this means his run for President is put on the back shelf for now while his Lawyers try to correct this misunderstanding...
I've watched quite a few of these excellent videos.. I still can't believe people live, eat dinner and sleep within feet of a train going 55-70 mph.

We are in a drug plague now.. Overdoses and death everywhere.. Someone in your family is using or will die soon because they are using.. To legalize this is insanity...
I don't think Donny knows what that Murderer has done to his so-called people.. The starvation, camps and death to those poor souls.. The question is why is Donny saying these things? Why is he saluting a General that has killed thousands of innocent people? Ignorance I guess..
Addiction is the most powerful sickness that can happen to a human.. Our world is plagued by it.. Alcohol, Drugs, Pills, Cigarettes and Marijuana are the most deadly.. Doctors, Lawyers and Drug Dealers knowingly sell drugs for money and they are personally responsible for the pain and suffering of ruined family's and the overdose deaths of the many thousands of young people? The Addiction problem will get worst if that's possible, with the legalization of Marijuana...
Remember the stories of the casting couch? Its been going on for years.. From Hollywood to Washington and in between.. Every once and a while it surfaces... to be quickly silenced by pervert corrupt Lawyers who take part and big money... Its sad but will never end.. .. If you want to be a (Star) and what young person doesn't, this is what you must do.. And yes, Agents, Managers and parents will tell them to be really nice to the people in charge.
Little known fact.... John F. Kennedy’s brain, which was removed during his autopsy after his assassination in 1963, disappeared and has never been found.

For the record, moving the capital of Israel to Jerusalem was voted by our congress many years ago. But the democrat president cowards never had the guts to ACT until Trump did.
These days a cheap rent is a $1000.00 a month minimum. You can't be a drug addict and pay this rent.. Guess what they pick to do, not because they want to, its because have too.. You have to want to stop and if and when that happens if it ever does, you can never pick-up again because if you do, you will go back to the way you were only worse...
The Addiction plague and Death will get worst, with the legalization of Marijuana...Medical Marijuana and Prescription drugs....

Commercials, Ads, Pop-ups, or obnoxious videos without permission is an invasion of privacy and deserve any negative action against them.

Great story but I have started with all the Michael Connelly, Harry Bosch detective stories.. I read (Listen) Books on CD I get from Overdrive. I miss going to the Library but that's our world today.. I don't know what's or who is next but if I ever figure this site out, I'll let you know..
Remember in 1988 when Rob Lowe raped teen girls and made Videos and then
In 1991 William Kennedy Smith was famious for assaulting woman.. ... Remember Martha Moxley? She was beaten to death in 1975 with a golf club by Michael Skakel.. He is also a member of the Kennedy clan.. Then of coarse in 1969 there is Ted Kennedy and Mary Jo Kopechne and the way he left her to drown.. ...From what I understand it was a Kennedy family trait.. Its very important to keep things like this green.. Never forget what these perverts did..

Go as fast as you can because nothing will happen to you. You can fly over the ice, snow and water...You are going to live forever... Speed is good.
You must always go as fast as you can and always remember to follow the car in front of you as close as you can... Texting and talking on the phone while driving is also good when you are going 100 or 150 MPH.
Always go as fast as you can going absolutely nowhere... You are very important and it doesn't matter if you kill someone..
I had a part time job driving a fork lift unloading planes at BDL... Wasn't funny when I inadvertently poked a hole just under the loading door on Slick Airlines Constellation Freighter.. Yes it was a long time ago.. The Co-Pilot taped up the hole with Masking tape and they took off.. Just them taking off is worth the story.. I watched them leave saying a little prayer.. The only consequence was a "Be careful next time". Needless to say I was..

There has been a rash of house fires lately because of huge electric bills. Sometimes the Electric bill is $1200 to $2000 a month so people are choosing an alternative source of heating their home.. With the $5000 - 8000 dollars a year Taxes plus Home payments... They will do anything to keep warm.... This is the result...
Also never forget Anita Hill and Clarence Thomas who is an American judge, lawyer, pervert and government official who currently serves as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States..
Angry possessive, jealous school administrator..... Glad he's locked up.. Safe to send the kids to school now.. . Or is it? I'll bet his Ex is comfortable now knowing he has been caught.. Sounds like a Washington "Porter" story in the making... Really need to follow up on this one..
What's sad, I mean its all sad but those kids standing on the side of the roads and in parking lots smiling and laughing think what is around them is normal.. To them its cool to beat the system and get Welfare and food stamps...Its what everybody does.. Can you imagine the Rotting smell coming from those vacant houses.. That to them that is the way it is..
They are illegally in this country! They should be deported just for NOT becoming citizens. Instead of doing something about their problems they are cowards hiding in a Church... Who is feeding them now? Is he paying rent? They cannot stay there forever..

In an Administration that doesn't know what the right or left hand is doing I doubt that this meeting will ever happen.. Its like the blind leading the blind. If it does and that is a big ("IF") Donny will, as Donny always does, will "screw" it up.....For lack of a cleaner word... There is only one ending to this situation and we all know what that is... 3/10/2018
I wonder how humiliated the First Lady is? Remember her?? Does Donny pay her to stay and keep quiet? How about Donny's kids and family? Better check with Ms. Sanders to see what the truth is...
My question is, what is going to happen to the Jihadist terrorist who blows himself up to get his grimy paws on those 40 virgins when he gets to Allah land or where ever these freaks go after they die. I mean how will he know if he is getting what he died for. It could be that one of those so-called Virgins was a drug addict hooker from the streets of Baghdad. Are these dead woman going to be tested before dying or after dying?
Another thought is....Do the Muslims check those young Muslim girls in the United States before they marry them? You know the girls that go to your local High School and hang around with those promiscuous white teen girls that watch MTV and those sexy movies. You know how they talk to each other...These days they are tempted and teased into trying anything... Aren't these young Muslim things promised to some old guy when they get a certain age? How will they know they haven't been violated by some High School jock? Hey, this sounds like an episode of L&O Special Victims unit....I can see the Muslim dad now trying to check his daughter with a retractable ruler, yelling, "don't move, stay still you little Bitch. I need to sell you to Abdula."
"The black is a better athlete to begin with because he's been bred to be that way, because of his high thighs and big thighs that goes up into his back, and they can jump higher and run faster because of their bigger thighs and he's bred to be the better athlete because this goes back all the way to the Civil War when during the slave trade … the slave owner would breed his big black to his big woman so that he could have a big black kid."

In 1994 CIA operative Aldrich Ames is arrested for selling secrets to the Soviet Union. Ames had access to the names and identities of all U.S. spies in Russia, and by becoming a double agent he was directly responsible for jeopardizing the lives of CIA agents working in the Eastern bloc. At least 10 men were killed after Ames revealed their identities, and more were sent to Russian gulags.
Presidential Dignity and Honor are gone from the United States.. Trump is Narcissistic, inappropriate and the most undignified leader of the free world ever.. Fueled by Greed with all his Billions of dollars he bought the Presidency because he wanted it, just to be able to say he could..

Huge frustration and anger issues and this is the result with a country run by Judges, Lawyers, Big Business and Drug Dealers what do you expect... New Laws are being made that circumvent existing laws to fit the crimes of the politicians, the rich and famous or anybody that fits certain profiles...There are so many Lawyers now that they are fighting each other..
Instead of sending the National Guard and other Military to some Godforsaken Rat Hole Country to die because of greed and dirty money why not keep them home to guard the schools and other dangerous places.. If I was on duty at the time, this Bastard wouldn't have had the time to even get past the cross walk sign.. Believe me....

Marijuana is also know as a Stepping stone drug called Pot, Dope and Weed. The human lungs were designed to breath clean air... Medical Marijuana is just the Lawyer term they use to make it legal. For Addictive personality's, usually addiction runs in the family. Especially those should not use this Drug because it will lead to using Cocaine and other deadly addictive substances.
Medical Marijuana and Prescription drugs.... Lawyers and Politicians create new names to make it legal so they can hook you to come back for more.. They are now Legal drug dealers..
FAST FOOD = They grind up every part of the Pig, Chicken and Cows. Private parts, brains tongues and who knows what else. Keep in mind they don't waste anything. They bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Don't forget the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig or a Cow scream?
Porter is a woman beater! Can you imagine how pissed off this bottom feeder is now! He has been outed and lost a very Prestigious job!!!.. Everywhere he goes people will point and whisper.. Who will hire him now??? He just might beat the Receptionist for not pronouncing his name right... I'll bet the walls in his house have fist holes from him punching them... Revenge is in his brain.. He is a very sick person.. His wives and all the other woman he's abused better get security because he will kill them if he has a chance... He has huge anger issues... Any woman who is near him is at risk.. He will take out his anger on them... He is very dangerous now..
Malloy has no management or people skills and is unsympathetic to the poor. He feeds on money making and greed. He is bought and paid for by business and pretends to care but is shallow and ignorant. You can see right through him. I'm sure investigating him you will find some kind of corruption.. He is not a very bright person.. He got caught a while ago giving Drugs to his son on the other side of the security line at Bradley Airport ....His time will come...
When those Doctors try to give me something I always check the Side Effects..Google or any way I can.. One time my hair was falling out in the bathtub drain.. One time the itches were driving me crazy. I lost my my sexual drive.. It took me a while to get that back.. Be very careful because Depression, fear anxiety are all side effects.. Girls have different issues but the bottom line is that its always about the money these creepy so-called doctors make.. You may think they care but they don't... Be careful...
This video is not right.. The blue suits are cub scouts .. The brown suit are boy scouts. I think you have to be 12 years old to be a scout... I have a few questions... Are the girl scouts going to be disbanded or is it for Lesbians? Are the girls that are going join the boy scouts, gay or girls that just want to be boys? Can they all use the same bathrooms? Will they shower together to conserve water? Will there be a girl scout leader or a girl that wants to be boy leader? Will they call the bathroom LBDGSBSTFBSGS areas? There are too many unanswered questions here.. I didn't even mention the child molesters.. How are they going to know who to molest? I could go on and on.. Yes and like the world we live in, this is absolute insanity...

Who remembers when it was called a Telephone? For the first time in many years I am not connected or in this case subjected to a land line. Its a good feeling not to have to pay a bill to be verbally abused by a continuous flow of phone solicitors. These days when you have a land line you become a prisoner in you own home by being harassed and continuously bothered by a non-person trying to sell you something.. Bell then AT&T were my company's for years until they were taken over by something called “Frontier“. Both phone company’s are now at the point where the customer has become a consumer, in other words a modern clone or human robot. Its feels really good now not to have a TV or a phone. My mind is my own again..
Happy days at last.. Wait, now the not so good news.. Having lived next door to the CVS drug store The smell from the River and Canal in the Summer is at times overwhelming.. Wait I’m not done. The blaring horn from the train that goes past that intersection at sometimes 60 mph 4 or 5 times a day is not very comforting.. They have to blare that horn because of the intersection on Main St. Has the old railroad station been fixed? If not that too emits a horrible order… The only nice thing is trail along the canal.. I have ridden my bike full length back and forth many times.. However I’m glad I moved and live by the Ocean.. Good luck up there..
President Trump in his news conference today announced today that the new steroid growth hormone for live stock has passed the rigorous testing by the FDA. From now on all livestock will be given this chemical twice a day and will grow faster and produce more meat. She said, "now the slaughter houses will be able to keep up with the demand at the fast food restaurants". Livestock will be slaughtered each day instead of every six months. The President also said it is harmless to humans but would not comment on the millions of overweight people and heart attacks in the country. Meanwhile all local Walmart stores have starting stocking rotund sizes for children ages 6 to 12.
Trump also announced that Walmart is the only store left in this country. He congratulated Walmart executives for manipulating and driving all other stores out of business commenting, "with no competition they can charge anything they want". The only stores left are a few drug and gas convenience stores. She said our foreign friends need to have a place to own and work.. Meanwhile Walmart employees will be taking a pay cut because there in no other place to work...
Gov. Malloy announced today that effective immediately the new State wide posted State highway speed will be 150 mph. Back roads speeds will be increased from 30 to 100 mph.
If caught driving on the wrong day a one year mandatory jail sentence and a $10,000 dollar fine will be issued. Drones will be flying over highways and cameras installed on the highways and roads will issue the fine to be sent in your mail. The computer that runs your car will shut off automatically and the car will stall. Towing charges by the State and Government will be $5000.

Also no one will be able to enter a Shopping Mall or Super Market without body armor. Store security will start strip searching people before entering any store. This is including movie theaters and churches.
Gov. Malloy announced that In 3 days it will be legal to buy Cocaine without a prescription. It will be sold in Walmart and all drug, convenience stores. He said the taxes selling this will help paying our $931 Quadrillion dollar debt. They said if everything goes well it should be paid off in 300 years if there are no wars…

Effective immediately the new Federal retirement age for Social Security will be 80 years old. Senators and Congress will still be able to retire after 1 term or if thay are fired with full pay, lifetime benefits and full medical.
To make a long story short... STOP eating at McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, all the new cholesterol grease pits and especially that Chicken swill pit with the picture of the old guy on the front... If it helps to stay away, think of all the chemicals they put in the food to make it taste better... It could be very addicting...
Thank you so much for your comment but I feel there is a sickness or sadness, a certain ignorance around you that I feel sorry for. It worry's me that an uneducated person like yourself is walking around free. Its sad that your social skills are in desperate need of work but then I realize you didn't have a chance because it seems like you quit school in the 2nd grade. However, now I think its more important for you to find out who your real parents are and what your wife or girlfriend are doing right now. However, its still to late for you because you are disliked every where you go. I feel really bad that you are so selfish and blind to the innocence around you.
Hey I know... To reduce the use of water lets get few million Immigrants in your area to dig wells by hand.. or use the odd, even house number system to take showers each day.. No drinking allowed, you must buy water at the dollar store.. The State police will be checking on you..
This kind of thing is going on everywhere.. No job, drugs and in debt up to his eyeballs... This isn't news its normal...
Do you think the Sexual assaults and rapes have something to with this? Why won't a leader address that? Does a college party remind you of drinking and now proscription drug use? Remember pot party's? Well pot is legal now.. Do you think these statistics are going to get lower? Will your leaders do something about this? In the past few weeks young people are dying in car wrecks. Do you think they were sober or was it because of drinking or drug use? Did your leaders hide that fact. Hey I know...Have lessons and classes on what happens when drugs and alcohol lower a persons inhibitions. Its called consequences. You morons haven't seen anything yet.
They aren't protesting! They are disrespecting the Flag that Millions of American soldiers died for.. No mercy for these Bastards! Find another way to protest.. They are Assholes and should be arrested, deported and banned from playing for life.. They wanted attention, those Sons of Bitches got it now..
Irony is that Charles Julius Guiteau, Assassin of US President James A. Garfield was hanged 1882. He was 40 years old.. He was also a Lawyer..
This is the ship model a friend gave me when she moved out.. I cleaned it up and repaired some very minor damage and this is the way it turned out.. It rained today and the temperature was 50 Degrees.. Stayed home because I was not feeling well, nothing serious just "old age" aches and pains.. I can't believe I just said that.. However, time goes by and the older you get it goes by faster.. It was like yesterday I was taking the train from Windsor Locks Connecticut to Hartford to go to Trade school.. And now its many years later.. Wow, as they say "time flies".. OK guys just thought I would share the ship news, take care and God bless.
(NOTE) Uber.......Its all about speaking and reading English and having a Passenger Endorsement on their drivers license if they bother to have one. Its about Insurance and drivers who are felons. Background checks should be mandatory... Then there are the illegal’s and do they really have a drivers license and how many DWI's do they have? Photo ID’s and finger prints and to pass a driving livery test. These days with all those Lawyers waiting on the sidelines for a driver to screw up, the more rules the better.
O.J Simpson and Robert Blake.. Sound familiar?.. Two Murderers that got away with it and they are laughing at you...... Monsters like this keep getting away with it because of Greed and Money... Pass this along.. Keep it green.. Never forget...Keep the Sliver Infected..
Tried on line dating years ago found three woman and we dated for a while.. We separated without incident going our separate ways. It was OK .. However my favorite way to meet woman is in a store shopping. Being confident with a good personality and being willing to help a woman is what works.. Never be afraid to say Hi.. Compliments are what works.. Many, many times I've had coffee in the local coffee shop then a romantic dinner in a restaurant of her choice.. To this day beautiful woman still smile at me.. I've had my day in the Sun, but I'm reminded every time I go to the store.. I'm just sorry it took a long time for me to learn this..
The way they mass produce chicken, cattle and pigs and the way they slaughter them I will never eat meat again. The Beef and Pigs are injected with growth hormones to mass produce them. The same thing with Chickens. They are locked in small cage's suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. The oceans are poisoned with Rediation and Mercury. Remember the Mercury warnings? They don’t tell you that anymore. Its worse now. Now its oil, radiation and what ever else they dump in the ocean. Don’t you ever believe that they care because they don’t. Its all about their profit margin. Remember when you could trust the producers of food. Well don’t! Look at all the over weight people from eating McDonald’s, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Wendy’s limping around this country. Believe me, No one cares!
Restaurants ... Did you tell them what was in that Hot Dog? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don't waste anything. They bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Think about the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig scream?
The problem is there is no preventive maintenance... All those employees have been let go years ago in favor of low bidder Electricians, plumbing, heating and nonexperienced snow removal drivers.. Its a move so politicians could steal more..

I am very well, just getting older as time goes on.. Much too fast.. Sooo good good hear you are OK... This is what I do to live and its not easy.. I live in senior housing in Connecticut by the ocean..Not to hard to take believe me.. Been doing that for years.. Its a long story..Ex wife issues..However, I turned a bad thing into a good thing... I know where ever you are they have a town hall with a person called a "housing coordinator" (those words) for the elderly.. Bring all your personal paper work.. Social Security and bank papers..Go there and ask them to point you in the right direction.. In other words, Apply for housing. The rent is adjusted to your income.. In a word "Cheap" ..There is a waiting list but get on it.. It will go by faster than you think.. Good luck and I mean that.. You shouldn't be where you are now.. Let me know what happens.. and God Bless...
Addiction is the most powerful sickness that can happen to a human.. Our world is plagued by it.. Alcohol, Drugs, Pills, Cigarettes and Marijuana are the most deadly.. Doctors, Lawyers and Drug Dealers knowingly sell drugs for money and they are personally responsible for the pain and suffering of ruined family's and the overdose deaths of the many thousands of young people? The Addiction problem will get worst if that's possible, with the legalization of Marijuana...
The new "Will and Grace" incites the deviant sexual behavior going on today. Showing the young what's inappropriate making it funny? Must need the money because they are all the has-beens of the past. Its a Dead horse. Don't let your kids watch this drivel. Take a knee on this one.
Because of high taxes and astronomical rents people have chosen to live in RV's, Mobile homes and moveable trailers.. I have traveled the country, mostly all the United States and they are every where you look, abandoned and lived in.. Annual taxes for a house range between $5000 to $20,000 a year depending where you live.. The Camper you see parked along side a house usually is lived in by a parent.. In Florida there are millions of trailer and campers...
Al Sharpton reported today that Walt Disney's new film called "Jet Black," the African-American version of "Snow White" has been canceled. All of the 7 dwarfs: Dealer, Stealer, Mugger, Forger, Drive By, Homeboy, and Shank have refused to sing "Hi Ho" because they say it offends black prostitutes. They also say they damn sure have no intention of singing, "It's off to work we go".
People think that being happy is about having rooms filled with money and if you become unhappy for any reason these days, you are programed to drink to feel better, drink to celebrate and drink when you feel sad. When that doesn’t work good enough you, you take that anti-depressant along with the drinking… Sooner or later that so called friend of a friend introduces you to, lets call it illegal drugs and we know what happens from there. You try it… Here is where you make the biggest mistake in your life because you think addiction can’t happen to you. The process has begun. It is the beginning of the end..

Prediction..... The former country's of Japan, Korea and North Korea are still closed off; physicists estimate it will take at least 10 more years before radioactivity decreases to safe levels.
I believe its OK to be angry or upset when negative pictures or things are said about what I believe in but to hurt or kill someone is primitive cowardly behavior. To walk away is what should happen.... "Turn the other cheek"... In time the cowards will be taken care of. Most times in a very painful way.. Years ago a very intelligent man said to me. "What goes around comes around"... Believe me... Its true...
Quick everybody look, I think its a human with a one word vocabulary...
Keep it up, it will be a while but he will fall.. This can't last.. All the signs are there.. The slime is circling the drain..
He should resign because his life as he knew it, is over.. He's worthless in Washington now..
They are living by rule of greed, not caring how real people live or what they feel all the while knowing its despair and fear... They have no idea what being content or happiness is.. On and on it goes denial, in many forms. They lie so much now they don't know what the truth is....
I never did any research on the religion reasons. These days with all the drugs, growth hormones and anti-antibiotics they give the animals its not healthy to eat the meat. (Note) notice all the fat people limping around the stores these days.. I did it for health reasons (vegetarian for 8 years now) but mostly because of the cruelty and treatment of the animals in the slaughter houses. If you think those poor creatures can’t feel fear and pain think again..
This is not the 40’s, 50,s or 60’s today its all about greed and the money and believe me they are losing money now because more people are eating healthy.. I take no Pharmaceuticals and at my age that is a miracle ….
In Washington there is what is known as a "creep list" -- an informal roster passed along by word-of-mouth, consisting of the male members most notorious for inappropriate behavior and sleep in thier offices, ranging from making sexually suggestive comments or gestures to seeking physical relations with younger employees and interns.

Somewhere around 1963 and 1977 while working at the airport someone thought of cleaning the center line lights with ground peanut shells. I'm standing next to the airport manager just behind the machine with the hard hat on.. The black lines are the touch down spots from aircraft landing.. The main office for the ground peanut shell distributor was on the Windsor Locks canal bank. It no longer exists.. Yes, I had a very interesting job..
From a great actor to a scum bag pervert in 3 weeks.. He might as well eat the gun because his life is over forever...
We must never forget it was Muslim Terrorists that murdered over 3000 people on September 11, 2001 that want to infiltrate our country. This is not the 20s, 30's, 40's or 50's. Our country cannot continue to accept undocumented people intent on killing the American people and trying to change our customs and ideals with their primitive Religious ways... Yes, American is the land of the free but not to that element.. These are very dangerous people....
The Radical Islamic plan for the future is to continue killing innocent people to create fear so people will leave their country's and flood other Nations with refugees and potential terrorists... So far its working well. Nations all over the World are suffering with over populations of Muslims and their Primitive religion..
We also live in a very angry America that is fueled by drugs and alcohol..
Things have to change if you want to it to stop..
Incompetent and corrupt.. Vegas = pay for silence.. And always remember business as usual because ITS ALWAYS ABOUT THE MONEY....
There is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. When and if you stop using drugs or drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. It is the only disease that tells you don't have a disease. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to survive.
I live a mile from the ocean and where there was once hundreds of seagulls there only a few now.. Remember the Pigeons under bridges and on the streets.. I haven't seen a Pigeon in months.. No one says a word about that.
When I was 23 I had Raynolds Disease. That was over 50 years ago. I was diagnosed by a Doctor and sent me to Hartford Hospital.. At the time it was rare to have something like this..I recall the student doctors and teachers surrounding my bed talking and pointing at me like I was on exhibit.. They even took pictures of my purple hands and ulcerated finger tips.I had two Sympathectomy operations in my chest and was in the Hospital for over a month.. I still live in Cold Connecticut but believe me, although different I know what you went through.. Just finished listening to your book on CD and thought, wow I need to tell her what happened to me.. People don't know what a feeling it is to be probed and prodded like we were.. I was really happy when you found your lucky ring.. Good luck and God bless and I really mean that because as you get older your body goes through changes you wouldn't believe.. ~Larry

Keep in mind that Hollywood is all about making money. The definition of Hollywood is, a place where people get paid to pretend to be something they are not. Its not real. Its make-believe. They laugh at you when you believe.. Its then they know they are successful and will make money.. Did you ever wonder why you are now a consumer and not a customer anymore?
You really need to upgrade the quality of the weather videos.. There is a HD setting, try it out.. The other News videos are fine. The weather is blurry..
Do not Televise NFL games until all those Assholes realize American men died so these idiots could make those millions of dollars playing the stupid game.. Or just draft them and send them to Raqqa...
The congressman's withdrawal comes after a joint CBS "60 Minutes" and Washington Post report revealed that Marino took nearly $100,000 from the pharmaceutical lobby while sponsoring a bill that made it easier for drug companies to distribute opioids across American communities and thwart the Drug Enforcement Agency.
There are at least 50 or more U.S. Submarines near or around that Peninsula. Each one has at least 20 Nuclear Surface to Air Missiles ... Forget the planes they won't see it coming.. Worry about the fallout and forget global warming..You have never seen heat like this... Millions of innocent people will die because of one egomaniac chink.. N. Korea will not exist in 10 minutes..
I wonder if this is the promised land...
Sooner or later it will happen.. Millions of innocent people will die because of money. The consequences are years of Radiation everywhere that continue killing..
Remember the stories of the casting couch? Its been going on for years.. From Hollywood to Washington and in between.. Every once and a while it surfaces... to be quickly silenced by pervert corrupt Lawyers who take part and big money... Its sad but will never end.. .. If you want to be a (Star) and what young person doesn't, this is what you must do.. And yes, Agents, Managers and parents will tell them to be really nice to the people in charge.
I stopped eating fish 6 years ago .. Notice there are no pigeons under bridges anymore. Where are they? There are Sea Gulls but not as many as before. Where there was once hundreds there are maybe 20 if that.. Soon there won't be any....
Normal for 2017... Scams , drug addicts, credit card scams.. internet scams... There are some really, really sick people out there..
First of all the Bastard is not a Sergeant.. Its called “time and grade”. He walked away from his company 5 years ago and its because of this time only was he was given the rank of Sergeant. He DID NOT EARN IT!
In 1961 President Kennedy told Americans to build bomb shelters....
President John F. Kennedy, speaking on civil defense, advises American families to build bomb shelters to protect them from atomic fallout in the event of a nuclear exchange with the Soviet Union. Kennedy also assured the public that the U.S. civil defense program would soon begin providing such protection for every American. Only one year later, true to Kennedy’s fears, the world hovered on the brink of full-scale nuclear war when the Cuban Missile Crisis erupted over the USSR’s placement of nuclear missiles in Cuba. During the tense 13-day crisis, some Americans prepared for nuclear war by buying up canned goods and completing last-minute work on their backyard bomb shelters.
Pres. Trump signed legislation and it will go into Law starting Oct.1st. All blacks or people of color must kneel when the Pledge of allegiance is being played or they will go to jail for 30 days. This "sub" teacher said that she must set an example for the youth of Massachusetts so the rest of the country can slide downhill faster than it is. Now we know exactly why she is only a "sub" teacher. Gee I wonder if another school will hire her after doing something like this. To get another job do you still need references? Sorry Ma'am I didn't mean to go on and on......... Sound ignorant? Well that's how ignorant these Bastards are!
Warning to you drug users... There is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. Alcohol, drugs and Pharmaceuticals are triggers for anger, fear, paranoia and rage. It is the reason why our country is like it is today...When you stop using drugs or drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. It is the only disease that tells you don't have a disease. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to surve.
He is a total Asshole for disrespecting the Flag that Millions of American soldiers died for.. No mercy for that Bastard! Find another way to protest..

I remember a has-been tennis player with gray hair who did something like this for the money. It was around the time when tennis was failing and no one was was watching it on TV...This event and I use the term loosely, brought tennis back to life.. It was like the reality shows of today. Fake but the clones and robots believed it. It was around the same time they changed the name from customers to consumers..
In 1976, Lewis was arrested outside Elvis Presley's Graceland home for allegedly intending to shoot him. Lewis had already nearly killed his bass player Butch Owens on September 29 (Lewis's 41st birthday) when a .357 accidentally went off in his hand. " Lewis was charged with carrying a pistol and public drunkenness and released on a $250 bond.
They ignore Corruption and Pedophilia... Did you notice that?.. They maybe show a 20 second clip and and its gone forever..
You and your kids are being programmed by "Nintendo" games or while you are watching those horrible reality shows on TV, which are not real by the way. What about the TV and movie violence? It is the worst I have ever seen. Because of the movies and TV, promiscuity is normal and modesty is nonexistent? There is nothing left to the imagination. Remember, young minds without supervision are the future copycats and you know what means. They actually need someone to tell them difference between right and wrong... As the years, months and days go by in this computer world the odds of something I just described happening to you is rapidly increasing. So if you think you were careful before, brother you haven't seen anything yet....All because of money...The Bastards out there will do anything to steal or sell you something. Nothing else matters....They don't care about anything else...
The attackers of 9/11 were Islamic terrorists from Saudi Arabia and several other Arab nations financed by Saudi fugitive Osama bin Laden’s al Qaeda terrorist organization. They were allegedly acting in retaliation for America’s support of Israel, its involvement in the Persian Gulf War and those Saudi Bastards get away with killing 2985 innocent people and we, the United States of America did nothing....

On August 23, 1814, First Lady Dolley Madison saves a portrait of George Washington from being looted by approaching British troops during the War of 1812. Mrs. Madison abandons the family’s personal belongings to save the full-length portrait of the former president from desecration by any British soldiers who might be interested in humiliating England’s former colonists.
There is a new phenomenon in this country…New Laws are being made that circumvent existing laws to fit the crimes of the politicians, the rich and famous or anybody that fits certain profiles. I will give you an example. In doing my research, yes, I do research. I have read and seen this happen, down through the years. The same crimes, lesser penalties. Special prisons for certain criminals. Years ago if you were a foreigner. Are you ready for this? You were deported if you committed a crime. Try that now. I think everyone guilty of committing a crime belongs in a Federal or State prison. Nothing in the middle. Do you want to save a few bucks? Close all those country club jails. Send the so-called white collar criminals (woman Included ) to a real prison with no special privileges. I think a few years with a bunkmate named Bubba or Abdul will help deter future crimes from that individual. More importantly the crimes committed by our politicians should be exposed immediately and the suspect sent to his home state until the problem is rectified. No press conferences whining about the miscarriage of justice they are being accused of. If you put yourself in a position for bad things to happen it usually does. The idea is when you are elected by the people and sent to Washington you to try to represent the people fairly and be a decent human being by setting an example for the good people of this country…It would also be a good idea to stop the lawyers from running this country and give it
"Show me a hero, and I'll write you a tragedy." - F. Scott Fitzgerald
On April 23, 1925 F. Scott Fitzgerald met Ernest Hemingway for the first time at the Dingo Bar in Paris. While the two writers initially hit it off, their friendship soon dissolved into bitter rivalry.
Comment ............. What is very disappointing to me are the writers, young performers and singers who die from drinking or drug overdoses. F. Scott Fitzgerald (The Great Gatsby) drank himself to death because he could not stop drinking. Earnest Hemingway put a shotgun in his mouth and pulled the trigger because he could not stop drinking.. Michael Jackson hired a doctor to shoot him up with drugs. The Doctor overdose him… How's that working out for you Michael? There will never be another singer like Whitney Huston who died of drowning in her bathtub because of drug addiction. So did her daughter. Amy Winehouse drank herself to death. Elvis Presley died of a drug overdose.… How many more will die in 2016.. The waste is horrendous. I cry for these kids. All these gifted people are gone because of addiction. ..

Thank you for your feedback but I feel there is a sickness or sadness, a certain ignorance around you that I feel sorry for. It worry's me that an uneducated person like yourself is walking around free. Your social skills are in desperate need of work but then I realize you didn't have a chance because it looks like you quit school in 4th grade. However, now I think its more important for you to find out who your real parents are. However, its still to late for you because you are disliked every where you go. I feel really bad that you are so selfish and blind to the innocence around you.
I've tried them all.. I use the one with the best Adware, Popup blocker and Ad block. Its learning how to these to your advantage that helps the most.. I have been using the Internet for years so its been a process of elimination. The good news is that I don't remember when I have seen a commercial or had a Pop-up.. That tells me it works great... I would change if I started having problems. My rule is always be able to change in a moments notice if need be.. Good luck out there none of this happens overnight. It takes time to learn what to do and what not to do... Be very careful they are watching.... You are being scrutinized, searched, listened too everywhere you go. From the highways and stores to Facebook and Google. Yes, you are...and there isn't a Blessed thing you or I can do about it...
I went to work as an apprentice airport electrician at Bradley International Airport on the morning of Oct. 3,1979. It was just a normal day like all days. The birds were singing and a fall chill was in the air. I drove my newly purchased used $500 1971 Ford pickup truck to the airport and parked it along side my friends new Ford van and went to get my work truck out of building # 228. In those days all the airport buildings had numbers. They were old military buildings left over from World war II that were given to the State of Connecticut and each had a designation or a number. I parked the work truck in that building at night when we were done work…As I was unlocking the door the third vehicle arrived. It was one of the airport painters just getting to work. I backed the truck out of the building and got out and locked the door. Said good morning to the painter who was suffering from his usual hangover and I left. I drove by the new fire house and onto the eastside taxiway to cross the approach of runway 33. I picked up the microphone and called the Bradley control tower. “Bradley ground this is this is State 5 on the east side, at the approach of runway 33”. The tower replied “State 5 Bradley ground“. I replied, “holding short of runway 33, clearance to cross“. Hold short State 5 landing traffic to your left…I waited and watched as a Mohawk Airlines BAC 111 passed and landed, tires chirping and smoking as they hit the runway. As the plane passed by, the tower said, “State 5 clear to cross runway 33“…I replied, “5 roger, clear to cross“ and I headed to the Electrical shop on the ground floor of the terminal building…Little did anyone know this would be one of the worst days in the history of Bradley International Airport.

DID YOU KNOW As you walk up the steps to the building which house the U.S. Supreme Court you can see near the top of the building a row of the world's law givers and each one is facing one in the middle who is facing forward with a full frontal view ...It is Moses and he is holding the Ten Commandments!
DID YOU KNOW? As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the two huge oak doors have the Ten Commandments engraved on each lower portion of each door.
DID YOU KNOW? As you sit inside the courtroom, you can see the wall, right above where the Supreme Court Judges sit, a display of the Ten Commandments
DID YOU KNOW? There are Bible Verses etched in stone all over the Federal Buildings and Monuments in Washington, D.C.
DID YOU KNOW? James Madison, the fourth president, known as 'The Father of Our Constitution' made the Following statement: 'We have staked the whole of all our political Institutions upon the capacity of mankind for Self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to The Ten Commandments of God.'
DID YOU KNOW? Every session of Congress begins with a prayer by a paid preacher, whose salary has been paid by the taxpayer since 1777.
DID YOU KNOW? Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were members of the established Orthodox churches in the colonies..
DID YOU KNOW? Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep their authority and instead of Interpreting the law would begin making law an oligarchy: the rule of few over many. How then, have we gotten to the point that everything we have done for 220 years in this Country is now suddenly wrong and Unconstitutional?

Happy birthday, Michael Pollan! The American author and journalist got us all thinking about what's for dinner—or, more accurately, what should be for dinner—in his 2006 nonfiction book, The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals.

Sobriety is not a destination, but an everlasting journey.
"I am glad I will not be young in a future without wilderness." - Aldo Leopold
February 2, 1941: On this day, American writer Aldo Leopold caught a chickadee with the band number 65287 for the fourth year in a row on his family's farm. He let it go again — and then started writing one of his first nature essays as a tribute to the tiny creature.
I remember seeing the "Big Bopper" live at the Bell Auditorium in Augusta Georgia. Shortly after that I heard about the crash.. I was in the Military at the time.. Those were sad times.. I have that wonderful memory now and I will never forget it..
Don't compromise yourself - you're all you have. - John Grisham
"Human beings of any age need to approve of themselves; the bad times in history come when they cannot." - Barbara W. Tuchman
Two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Barbara W. Tuchman (born January 30, 1912) created her own law of historical research. Tuchman's Law—first coined in her 1978 book, A Distant Mirror—is a psychological principle of "subjective probability" that leads chroniclers of history to depict events' negative effects as being much more pervasive than they might actually be.
This Rat is Obama's pal.. Sucking up to his every whim. Guess what he wants?.... Does Federal Judge sound good? That's what his goal is.. The cushy Federal bench in Hartford.. From the Governors Mansion to a Mansion down the road in West Hartford.. Think about it.. Anything Obama wants the Connecticut governor gives... The hand writing is on the wall.....
Being from the old school this needs to be done in feet and miles. 5280 feet in a mile. I know what a Light year is. Traveling at 186,000 miles a second for one year, 365 days. To a novice this is uncomprehendable. Meters they will never understand. As humans we are so much less than that a grain of sand. Our normal lifetime is really nothing.
Chaney Mason…He was a lawyer I think…Oh, Wasn’t he that lawyer guy that gave everyone the finger. I don’t know why?
What is very disappointing to me are the writers, young performers, singers who die from drinking or drug overdoses. F. Scott Fitzgerald (The Great Gatsby) drank himself to death because he could not stop drinking. Earnest Hemingway put a shotgun in his mouth and pulled the trigger because he could not stop drinking.. Michael Jackson hired a doctor to shoot him up.. The Doctor overdose him… How's that working out for you Michael? There will never be another singer like Whitney Huston, died of drownig becauce drug addiction. So did her daughter. Amy Winehouse drank herself to death. Elvis Presley died of a drug overdose. So many more I didn't name… How many more will die in 2016.. The waste is horrendous. I cry for these kids. All that talent is gone because of addiction.

Egyptian court rules against virginity tests - CNN
"Cairo (CNN) -- An Egyptian administrative court issued an order Tuesday banning virginity tests for female detainees, months after several women alleged they were subjected to such examinations following a March protest in Cairo's Tahrir Square.
The ruling comes in the case of Samira Ibrahim, a 25-year-old marketing manager who took the country's military led-government to court in August, alleging she was among those subjected to the test after her arrest during the March 9 protest. She said she faced death threats after bringing the case."
Comment.....Think you have heard it all? Well you have now...
My question is, what is going to happen to the Jihadist terrorist who blows himself up to get his grimy paws on those 40 virgins when he gets to Allah land or where ever these freaks go after they die. I mean how will he know if he is getting what he died for. It could be that one of those so-called Virgins was a drug addict hooker from the streets of Baghdad. Are these dead woman going to be tested before dying or after dying?
Another thought is....Do the Muslims check those young Muslim girls in the United States before they marry them? You know the girls that go to your local High School and hang around with those promiscuous white teen girls that watch MTV and those sexy movies. You know how they talk to each other...These days they are tempted and teased into trying anything... Aren't these young Muslim things promised to some old guy when they get a certain age? How will they know they haven't been violated by some High School jock? Hey, this sounds like an episode of L&O Special Victims unit....I can see the Muslim dad now trying to check his daughter with a retractable ruler, yelling don't move, stay still you little Bitch. I need to sell you to Abdula...
This is the second strange "accident" in and around that wonderful casino. They seem to be getting closer together. They could possibly be Suicides from losing everything to the Redskins. Remember when someone ran into the bridge abutment? How many more before that?

If you are flying a Drone over my house and property, the house and property I pay taxes for, a house where my wife and kids are, in this Insane world the way it is, you are a problem to me now. I have a right to my privacy! Here in Connecticut we have a psychopath moron kid who has made low passes over girls at the beach in the summer and has even mounted a hand gun and flame thrower on a drone. I don't have to say anymore. Do I? The precedent has been set..
My advice.........Stop eating at McDonald's, Burger King and any of the fried chicken places.. Eat only meat that you know where it came from.. Not injected with steroids and growth hormones..The food they serve in those places is loaded with chemicals. The way they mass produce chicken, cattle and pigs and the way they slaughter them I will never eat meat again. The Beef and Pigs are injected with growth hormones to mass produce them. The same thing with Chickens. They are locked in small cages suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. Did you ever see how they make fish sticks? The same as hot dogs. They grind up every thing they cut off the fish including the eyes and guts...The oceans are poisoned with Mercury. Remember the Mercury warnings? They don’t tell you that anymore. Its worse now. Now its oil, radiation and what ever else they dump in the ocean. Don’t you ever believe that they care because they don’t. Remember when you could trust the producers of food. Well don’t! Look at all the over weight people from eating McDonald’s, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Wendy’s just to mention a few, limping around this country. Believe me, No one cares! I call them the FFF’s …. Fast Food Fat…?
Commercials, Ads, Pop-ups, or obnoxious videos without permission is an invasion of privacy and deserve any negative action against them. I will never buy anything or condone any interruption in my service. I will make it my goal in life to discourage anybody and everybody from putting up with the insanity these bottom feeders try to sell.. You have my word on that....
He posted $10,000 bond of drug money and is now going to kill who ratted on him.. Expect a few murders in that area of Norwich in the future..
He beat that little girl to death with a golf club iron and is a convicted murderer. If he gets a new trial the Judge has been bribed and is corrupt. That is how he got a new trial. They bribed a corrupt Judge with Kennedy money..
Thank you for your feedback but I feel there is a sickness or sadness, a certain ignorance around you that I feel sorry for. It worry's me that an uneducated person like yourself is walking around free. Your social skills are in desperate need of work but I realize you didn't have a chance because it looks like you quit school in the 2nd grade. However, now I think its more important for you to find out who your real parents are and what your wife or girlfriend are doing right now. However, its still to late for you because you are disliked every where you go. I feel really bad that you are so selfish and blind to the innocence around you.

Refreshingly wholesome, clean, true and I believe its exactly the way it was in ever sense of the word.. Its a Wonderful movie, don't miss it...
Its true, America has been raped by greed and all our industry has been moved to China.. We have thousands of empty factory's here.. Now they can't go outside because they can't breath the air.. The pollution is the worst I have ever seen. Problem is they are discussing what to do. They know what they have to do but don't care..
My advice is to invest in a flack jacket and wear it if you go into the cities at night. Be careful of the food you eat it might have a disease and don't trust anybody because they might be a con-man or woman. The morals of our kids is non-existent because of the movies and TV and the internet perverts will be on the prowl this winter..Wow, that's something to look forward to...There are too many people not minding thier own business. Every one has a solution but no one fixes anything..
The phrase "The pot calling the kettle black" is an idiom used to claim that a person is guilty of the very thing of which they accuse another.

Mac you are so right, they are real. In this new society with the Illinois Politician at the helm you have to be careful what you say about that segment of society. In other words the minority. Having said that, the majority of people if you can call them that, who are in prison are black..Be careful not to say that too loud the labels are flying all over the place. Don't fret, it will never change. The more complaints that are made will keep it alive and well. Thank you for sharing, I couldn't have said it better....
Keep in mind that in the United States every hour one person is killed by a drunk driver and its one of the reasons for all the horrible crimes committed today..
"Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen" - Jesus Christ
"Jesus 7–2 BC to 30–33 AD, also referred to as Jesus of Nazareth or Jesus Christ, is the central figure of Christianity, whom the teachings of most Christian denominations hold to be the Son of God. Christianity regards Jesus as the awaited Messiah of the Old Testament." - Wikipedia
Having been brought up in different world. A world where respect, love, honesty and family was the most important thing. It seems to me things have changed so fast its hard to believe people are like they are today. They have no idea why or what the Holidays are. The peace and serenity of the real Holidays is gone. Now its all about Greed. The fools that stand in those lines on Mondays, Black Friday or any day like that are the new America. They can only be described as Clones that have no idea what life is all about. No idea what it was really like. Its so sad and pathetic. I don't want or need anything from any of those horrible places…..

Giving someone a drug to save them is a good but there is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. It is a mental, physical and spiritual disease. When you stop using drugs or drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. It is the only disease that tells you don't have a disease. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to survive.
"You know you are addicted when you say to someone you can control your drug use. Some actually feel that they can cure themselves by not drinking or using drugs for short periods of time. Let me make this clear. If you are alcoholic or a drug addict, there is no cure. Addiction is a disease of progression. In other words, it is not a cure to stop drinking for short periods of time. When you use again and you will, it will usually get worse not better. The desperately sick and addicted as a last resort will spend any amount of money to relieve themselves of the desire and compulsion to drink. Alcohol and drugs will control your life. Alcoholism and drug addiction is disease like no other. It is a disease that tells you are not sick and that its OK to drink or use drugs again after you quit for a short period of time. Believe me, its not. Total abstinence for the rest of your life one day at a time is the only way to stop the craving and desire to drink or use drugs. Did you ever quit smoking only later to smoke one cigarette and find yourself smoking like before you quit only more. Smoking is another addiction that is very hard to stop....Well, it’s the same with drinking or using drugs. Usually young people start drinking alcohol because of peer pressure. After a while it becomes the thing to do to fit in and feel good about doing questionable things. The alcohol commercials are proving that. Take my word for it, their goal is to get you hooked. To start you drinking. The younger the better. The cigerette are proof of that. For woman, your inhibitions will disappear because of drinking and drugging. In the past you thought about what your parents would think or what the consequences would be of your behavior. When woman drink or use drugs they lose their dignity or that "Healthy caution" and will do things they wouldn’t normally do. They become prey for the perverts. Did you ever wake up in the morning and not remember what you did the night before? Wonder where the black and blue marks came from or where the car was? No, well wait! You will! This will go on until someone suggests to you to try Marijuana. I don't care what they say! Marijuana is a stepping stone drug and if you use it, it will, more than likely lead to the use of other addictive drugs like prescription drugs, crack cocaine or heroin. Its only be a matter of time. It will be easier than drinking and it will make you feel high faster.. With woman its all about emotions, feelings and feeling good, so off you go. With most guys its about being shy and lacking self-confidence. Alcohol and drugs will allow that "false courage" and you will do things that you see on TV or in the movies. You will take those chances that you normally wouldn't. That usually leads to pain or death.. For some, addiction is a slow process. If you just drink it could take years but when you add drugs to the mix it won’t take as long. Alcohol will bankrupt you physically, mentally and spiritually. Some are lucky enough to hit bottom before they do too much damage. For others it will take longer and the longer it takes the odds are that before they can get help that person will find jail or death"….
Have they been Immunized? Can they speak English? Do they have papers and passports? How much education do they have? If they are sick can we send them back or quarantine them? Do they have money? Who is going to feed them? Where are they going to live? What about Medical care? How about a Bank account? Who are they related to and are they angry at Americans? Will they want them to come to America?

New rule is the kids need to know why they are getting gifts? Whose birthday it is? Why is it called Christmas? You need to ask these questions after Thanksgiving and then ask, why do we have Thanksgiving?
Now the work really begins because there is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. When you stop using drugs or drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to survive.
"Marijuana smoke smoke contains a similar range of harmful chemicals to that of tobacco smoke (including bronchial irritants, tumor promoters and carcinogens. As inhaled smoke comes into contact with airway and lung before being absorbed into the bloodstream, it is likely to affect the respiratory system. Risk of respiratory effects from inhaling marijuana smoke are heightened by the more intensive way in which marijuana is smoked -- when smoking marijuana compared to tobacco, there is a prolonged and deeper inhalation and it is smoked to a shorter butt length and at a higher combustion temperature. This results in approximately 5 times the carbon monoxide concentration, 3 times the tar, and the retention of one-third more tar in the respiratory tract. Higher levels of ammonia and hydrogen cyanide have also been found in marijuana smoke, compared to tobacco. A 2011 systematic review of the research concluded that long-term marijuana smoking is associated with an increased risk of some respiratory problems, including an increase in cough, sputum production, airway inflammation, and wheeze – similar to that of tobacco smoking. However, no consistent association has been found between marijuana smoking and measures of airway dysfunction. Occasional and low cumulative marijuana use has not been associated with adverse effects on pulmonary function the effects of heavier use are less clear. Additionally, many marijuana smokers also smoke tobacco, which further increases the harm. Numerous studies have found that the harmful effects of smoking marijuana and tobacco appear to be additive, with more respiratory problems in those who smoke both substances than in those who only smoke one or the other."

In the United States every hour one person is killed by a drunk driver. There is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. Alcohol, drugs and phrma are triggers for anger, fear, paranoia and rage. It is the reason why our is like it is today...When you stop using drugs or drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. It is the only disease that tells you don't have a disease. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to survive.

Fact - 70 percent of all medically-important antibiotics in the U.S. are sold for use on chickens, cattle, pigs and turkeys -- not people. Industrial farms routinely feed antibiotics to animals that aren’t even sick to help them grow faster and survive crowded, unsanitary conditions -- and that helps breed dangerous drug-resistant bacteria that can give people difficult-to-treat infections. The Chickens are locked in small cages suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me, they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. If you knew how they make Fish-sticks you would never eat that crap again. Hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don't waste anything. You could mention that they bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Mention the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig scream? Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don,t waste anything. Mention the chemicals and growth hormones and steroids and the torture and pain of a slaughter house.

In the past I have said to please confront me with any issues you may have. If I have said something or wrote something sarcastic and a few people have told me I have. Its usually a misunderstanding that can be corrected.. Holding on to a resentment especially a mistaken one can be devastating when you find out the truth later. I value and treasure anyone who corrects me because it helps me grow....
I've tried them all.. I use the one with the best Adware, Popup blocker and Ad block. Its learning how to these to your advantage that helps the most..

I would change if I started having problems. My rule is always be able to change in a moments notice if need be.. Good luck out there none of this happens overnight. It takes time to learn what to do and what not to do... Be very careful they are watching.... You are being scrutinized, searched, listened too everywhere you go.

Most of the fools that do this are wanna-be cops or big game hunters that put on pretend camouflage clothes to kill a harmless creature that can't shoot back. The fact is they are cowards with visions of grandeur. Bed wetters that were left by their parents and were never taught to be careful because what goes around comes around. Beautiful harmless deer will be killed because a corrupt politician received a donation from a hunting club and can't renege on a promise to these cowards.
Do you think the Sexual assaults and rapes have something to with this? Why won't a leader address that? Does a college party remind you of drinking and now proscription drug use? Remember pot party's? Well pot is legal now.. Do you think these statistics are going to get lower? Will your leaders do something about this? In the past few weeks young people are dieing in car wrecks. Do you think they were sober or was it because of drinking or drug use? Did your leaders hide that fact. Hey I know... Lessons and classes on what happens when drugs and alcohol lower a persons inhibitions. Its called consequences. You morons haven't seen anything yet.

"In the late 1600’s and 1700’s, Norwich Connecticut was an important colonial seaport trading with the West Indies. Slaves were imported to Southeastern Connecticut from the West Indies during this period. They became personal servants, laborers and craftsmen. By 1756, the Black community numbered 223. Many had purchased their own freedom or had been freed by their owners. Former slave Guy Druck, a blacksmith, built this house at 76 Church St. in the 1850’s. His skills were renowned and actively sought by ship builders for components such as anchors.
This building is a magnet to people like this.. It is an eyesore to the community. That and that train station should have been torn down years ago..

Same old Windsor Locks with the one sided Main St. lingers on. For years the historical society has collected money for the repair of that smelly train station... Why isn't something being done?

Yesterday the discussion at my Thursday morning breakfast meeting turned into a lesson of character defects to the extreme. Examples of what crazy things we do and can happen when we become envious and gossip. These things do happen to all of us at one time or another. We talked about what to do and what not to do when confronted with feeling angry and stressful in these times of uncertainty and what to do when you are grateful that things are going your way. Personally I think it takes years to learn how to manage your life and be successful and comfortable with yourself at the same time. Some never learn and are stuck in a groove, living a life of hate and contempt trying to take down other people. However, smart people learn by consequences and the mistakes they make. When all around us, especially in the building where I live I am surrounded by people who are jealous and want to be like me or want what I have. Which is by the way, a quiet happiness and the mystery of a real smile. Some of these people I might add are the kind of people that try to, "eat Chop Suey with one chop stick" . I do know that none of us want to feel that guilt and remorse later when we hurt someone by gossiping or slandering them, causing them to be angry. Lets face it, we all want to be safe, have the kindest and most beautiful girlfriend in the world, no bills and the nicest car. Today, I think we have to expect less and be content with what we have and like it or not some of us have to step aside. Its really not important to be perfect and be in the front of the line all the time. The idea is to stop criticizing and let the other person step in front of you. You should do this with the compassion and kindness you lost but can find buried somewhere in your soul. You should help just a little. I guarantee you will feel better about yourself.
Stephanie Rivkin the bears they killed is on you.. I know you don't care but sooner or later you will. Your conscience will not let you forget.. A video, a moment in the sun, that little bit recognition will soon fade and you will become a who? Oh, that weird woman who had the bears killed. I'll pray for you because your future is not very bright.. Lovers of animals who feel that "live and let live" will be with you for all time. Steph you really messed up this time. You can't hide..You haven't begun to feel the consequences.
People are overdosing and dieing and addiction is on the front page these days. Why is that? We have a Governor here in Connecticut who OK-ed the sale of marijuana. Most people stopped smoking Cigarettes and he does this.. Pot is addictive and worse than Cigarettes. Medical marijuana now hits the street. Is it about the money? You would think your Governor would know better because rumor has it his son and nephew are a problem drug users. I guess if you were born a fool you stay a fool..
What is going on? No one cared before. Family's ruined, son's and daughters dead or in jail. No one cared? All of a sudden its a big deal... Good! I hope they see the light. Michael is right only kids do learn by example! Set limits. Turn off that lousy gamer and TV and go out and play.. Then come home for supper where everyone sits down and eats together. Supervision and family unity. Try it! The words please and no goes a long way....

Contrary to popular belief, to an addictive personally Marijuana is a stepping stone drug and will lead to the use of heavier drugs like prescription drugs, crack cocaine or heroin. At that point its only be a matter of time.
Thank you for sharing Todd.. And correcting my spelling, that was priceless. However.. You being a Pot-head must realize that any smoke you breath, if you breath it long enough will kill you. And Todd while I'm on the subject. Contrary to popular belief, to an addictive personally Marijuana is a stepping stone drug and will lead to the use of heavier drugs like prescription drugs, crack cocaine or heroin. Its only be a matter of time. Be careful my friend, lung cancer is not pretty....
As far back as I can remember my dad always wore a hat. He never wore it in a Church a restaurant or in the house like they do today but only to work and when he was outside. I remember him taking off his hat when he went into a building. I remember him tipping his hat to the ladies...He was a very respectful and courteous... In the winter he wore a Navy pea-cap. It was around the time of World War two and I remember he said he was exempt from the Military. He told me, instead of the Military and because of our family, he called us "dependents" and at that time they only drafting single guys...So he worked in a place called the Springfield Armory in Massachusetts where they made guns for “World War Two“. He was a Machinist. ... My uncle, my moms brother, his name was Frank. During the war he was in the Navy building and repairing airbases on those islands in the Pacific. He was in what they called the “Navy Seabees“. He told me he "drove a bulldozer" and made landing strips for the war planes on those islands...I remember he gave my dad a Navy pea hat and a pea-coat for the winter. He gave me a clock that he said, "came out of a Navy plane that crashed". They called it a, pea coat and pea hat because of the material it was made of. I often wondered what the “P” meant…In the summer my dad wore a baseball hat. He was a great baseball player. He played third base on the town baseball team. The name of the team was the "Kettle Brook Team". It was named after a once popular fishing brook in our town. I think its a swamp now by the Congregational Church on Main St....The uniforms they wore were like the Yankee pin stripes but my dad was always a Red Sox fan. He got to see them win a World Series before he died. He was happy about that. My son Adam even put a Red Sox hat in his coffin. He really would have liked that.
I especially remember one summer afternoon many years ago when they were playing baseball at the local ballpark near St. Mary's school in Windsor Locks Connecticut. Dad told me that the famous "Babe Ruth" and the Yankee baseball team visited the park while they were on some kind of tour. I remember one time at a game when I was standing near the fence with my fingers holding the fence and he came over and told me to never hold the fence like that because a foul ball might hit my fingers. I will never forget that. To this day I will never lace my fingers in a Chain link fence.....He always took care of me...He use to say to Mom to "Keep an eye on me" or "Watch over me" all the time. I was watching a game one afternoon when the batter hit a line drive, a hot grounder, a one bouncer to him at third base and he caught the ball and threw it from deep in the hole to first base and got the runner out...Everybody in the grandstand cheered. I didn’t know how important that was at the time but he was very excited when he explained it to me. His nick name was “Pap the Rooster”. All the players had nick names. From that moment on my Dad had the nick name "Pap". No one ever called him Joe which was his real name. I have no idea what that means but I think, “Rooster” is a term for a baseball infielder. I was only a little kid and very young but I remember that. When he was older and done playing baseball he wore a golf hat. For years he played golf all summer long at the "Copper Hill Country Club" in East Granby with my uncles and his friends. In the winter he went bowling. First at Blanch's lanes on Grove St. then at the "Villa Rose" on Spring St. in Windsor Locks on Tuesday and Thursday nights. I went with him because my Mom worked and I remember helping the owner of the bowling alley set up the pins. They said were “short handed”. I was called "the pin boy" and they paid me 6 cents a string...The bowling pins were called “Duck-Pins“. I remember the hat he had at the time with a bowling pin logo on it…On Sundays he wore a fedora to church like the one Humphrey Bogart wore in the movies. I have a picture of me and my Dad all dressed up for Church and we both had a fedora on. It looked like I was 6 or 7 years old. .
Dad, I will always remember the things you taught me, the wonderful example you set and the priceless things you said to me. A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you and think, what would my Dad do in a situation this? It never fails, I always make good choices when I do that.. It was an honor and a pleasure to take care of you and "Watch over you" in your last days like you took care of me.. I really miss you Dad... Happy Fathers Day.... I love you.....
Its going to be hot today and the weather man we have in this area tries to look happy and talk with an upbeat tone but I know he is as miserable as me…Is it my imagination or has this been one long uncomfortable summer?…There are so many things to voice my opinion about that I don’t know where to begin. Yeah, right Lar. One of most dumbest things is, its almost the anniversary of the 9/11 murders and the Muslims want to build a Mosque near the where the Twin Towers were in New York City. They use us and abuse us. They kill our solders, blow people up all over the world and then they want to build churches to praise their God. Where do they get the money to build these things? It costs millions…Don’t say anything but it could be the drug money from Afghanistan. That is one of their more popular exports. I heard they hide bombs and guns in these Churches. This morning they blew up something in Iraq and killed 60 people and 3 more soldiers died in Afghanistan. This is insane and I wonder who would allow this to happen? Could it be our honest politicians who care so much about what you and I think.? The Illegal Alien thing has quieted down. Our President flies all over the world and goes on vacation while your taxes go up and up, as you pay for all the Illegal’s welfare and food stamps. They don’t really have stamps. They have charge cards now…Your State and Federal government sends them so much of your money a month on a charge card. I heard they can get cash from these cards too but don’t hold me to that. It depends how many kids they have. They call them dependents. Yeah, they are dependent on you for school and don’t forget that wholesome breakfast, lunch and dinner tonight. I always wonder where the Dads are and where they work. They never show the fathers only the mothers telling the sob story of how they have so many problems. This fall they will be going to your schools that you will pay for. Meanwhile don’t forget to donate money for school lunches, the school books and the flood victims, the Hurricane victims, The Fire victims, the Oil Leak victims, the Cancer victims, the Russian victims, the Pakistan victims, the India victims, the Arab victims and all the other scam victims in the world….When I see this I think of the people who run these things. I’ll bet the CEO’s make over $200,000 a year. While you send in your donation they are driving their BMW's to work when they actually go to work….So as you sit in your 1985 Ford Escort on your way to work paying $3.00 a gallon for gas, don’t forget to donate because the welfare recipients and the illegals need the money for the taxi's that take them shopping. Don't forget your government, they are watching everything you do from the satellite spy cams. They can actually see the numbers on the checks you write…..Later guys…..
Washington D.C. May 26, 2090.…In the news today, the Al-Qaeda Daily, Arab Press and the Muslim news reported that the Arctic ocean, the last ocean to be free from the leaking oil from the Gulf of Mexico is now totally polluted…officially, the U.S. White House reports and confirms that all oceans are now thick with oil the consistency of pudding. The President was at a fund raiser yesterday seeking donations for his reelection but as an afterthought confirmed that there is no more sea life living in any ocean. A committee is being formed to oversee the existing committee on discussing a bail out program for British Petroleum. …British Petroleum said today they are still working hard to cap the leak in the gulf by putting sand on top of the hole but reports it’s a time consuming job. Meanwhile the last of the Whales and Sea Turtles are putting themselves on shore preferring to suffocate on land rather the in the ocean. When asked about the scarcity of drinking water in the United States the president said, the government will provide bottled water on the third Wednesday of every month. Limit is two 12 once bottles per family of four. Non-citizens will receive six 12 ounce bottles. When ask why that is…The president replied, because we need to be nice to our foreign friends. They showed great courage crossing the border in all that gunfire. In other news the Senate just voted a unanimous yes to appropriate from American taxpayers, the money to build a Western White House in Dubai.
In other news…. The committee overseeing the committee seeking to elect Mohammed Abdul Mohammed Jr. President of the United States is seeking funds from the United Arab Emirates and Dubai. Dubai, the capital of the Mid-east recently completed building an artificial ocean with profits from raising gas prices in the United States $291.99 per gallon.…. If elected he will be the fifth President to admit being a Muslim of the highest order.. When asked, He said he will, “Use American Tax dollars to build a Mosque in every Federal building in the United States. “And that’s a campaign promise”, he was heard saying in Arabic to his press secretary. He later commented that the new law concerning woman will go into effect on June 1st making it mandatory that all woman must wear their full robes or suffer the consequences of being stoned on the city street by the Jihad police…And that’s the News for today, May 26, 2090...Stay tuned
We are all prey for the money mongers who make money on our addictions. From the compulsion spending on things we don’t need to our minor and real addictions. We are constantly encouraged to buy because we need this an that….Its continuous repetition and temptation to spend….They say coffee is good for you to encourage you to spend. It can’t be that good if you stop drinking it will give you a headache. Just makes sense, doesn’t it?
Of coarse then there are the decaying morals and family values of the younger generation. Think about that son and daughter you may have or your little niece and nephew. There are young kids somewhere in your family. If you don't have any, think about your friends son and daughter. Who will they be having sex with in say, 2 years, 5 years or 10 years? Well, actually the question should be how many guys will she be having sex with? How many young girls will he be having sex with?...
The only solution is a neat little bar code or a GPS implant somewhere on your body….They have them on dogs and cats why not on humans? It just makes sense…cashier Amy wasn’t shocked and she actually thought I was serious. To her the idea was just one of those things that will happen sooner or later and acceptable……How do you know there isn’t some kind of locator on your body right now? A microscopic pin point that can hear and find you……Wait, there is and its called a cell phone…..Wait again, the reason the Government doesn’t care how many people there are in this country is…What’s the first thing they buy when they get to this country? A cell phone…Wow…. I could be on to something……………..
I believe something is going on...But If you can get a picture of the smoke coming from a engine at say 50 or 60,000 feet you can hang around an airport long enough to get a shot of (more than one) truck being loaded with, not fuel but chemicals. I'd like to see that. If I wanted to get picture I would follow the tanker (any oil or aviation fuel tanker truck) to see where he goes. I would even be persistent enough to get a sample...?
If I have learned anything in the relatively short life span we have, its two things. Choices (self explanatory) and Burning Bridges. Always leave a little room for negotiation..
Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don,t waste anything. Mention the chemicals and growth hormones and steroids and the torture and pain of a slaughter house.
It was an Interesting day yesterday…My usual breakfast with friends but what was more interesting was, well not really that interesting but it was more of a “you never really know who is watching you day“….One of my Ex’s posted a comment on Twitter that she was reading my Facebook page and Journal. I should say she found my Journal and said, now get this, She said, “:I’m amazed seeing inside his head. She went on in 140 characters or less…”I just can't conceive of that much intensity all the time!” Was that a compliment or an insult? Wait, hold it right there…“Intense”. Now that’s food for thought. Hell, I never thought it was intense. I am intensely angry with the changes and the complete disregard of what the future of our country and state will be. I haven’t been posting lately because I’m sure no one wants to read my constant condemnation of our so-called leaders, and law makers. I heard that one yesterday “Law Makers“! What a joke…They all sit around trying to look serious when the TV cameras are on but behind the scenes they are making back room deals, laughing and telling jokes about how much they will be able to steal from your wallet. See what I mean? It always comes out like that…I can’t help it…I’m sorry...I try not to be upset but what can I say. Some times I wish I was blind or ignorant to what's happening and could go around like nothing is happening. Intense yes…I know I’m not the only one that feels like this…On me not posting. I can only say, I can’t think of anything good to say so I’m not saying anything… Did she insult me? I still can’t figure that out.
"Believe it or not someone called the way I write “intense”. Well I believe that if I hid my head in the sand nothing would get done in this country or the world. You cannot pretend nothing is wrong and gleefully go on your way."
Marijuana is also know as a Stepping stone drug called Pot, Dope and Weed. Using this drug Is the same as smoking Cigarettes and in my opinion will cause Cancer...Medical Marijuana is just the Lawyer term they use to make it legal. For Addictive personality's, usually addiction runs in the family. Especially those should not use this Drug because it will lead to using Cocaine and other deadly substances. Your Governor signed the death warrant for thousands of Connecticut kids and adults alike.
When I was working we used to have a guy that made homemade Pasta Vasul. God, do I miss that. I like saying that…….Pasta Vasul……
I wonder if the Shuttle crew can see things blowing up in Afghanistan?
I’ll never understand how or why a guy will wear his pants around the bottom of his bottom. I’m sure you have seen that…someone told me they are called “Wanna-be’s. Whatever that is. I think its some sort of club. Someone should tell them it doesn’t help them if they need to run for their life. It would be unmanly to run pulling up your pants.
My dad use to say, “Lorenzo behave yourself I don’t want to see any monkey shines” I have no idea what a monkey shine is……. I looked it up on Wikipedia and I’m not sure I like the definition.
Speaking of Wikipedia….I joined that the other day. Now, I’ve got to figure out why…..
I think my Dad had a thing for monkeys…..At times when I would copy something or do things that other youngsters would do He would say, “Lorenzo, monkey see monkey do“……It could be why I like monkeys today……
My grandfather, father and grand mother called me Lorenzo. My mother called me Lawrence. My aunt hung the Monika Larry on me….Today most people call me Lar…
Every once and a while when I was young I would be upset over something trivial. My dad would say, “Lorenzo don’t make a mountain out of a mole hill”.
When I was young…Somewhere around 3rd or 4th grade. I was the victim of a bully. I’m sure there are many of us that have had that kind of trauma happen….I came home crying and my dad explained very carefully what to do when confronted with this behavior…..Keep in mind I was a shy quiet kid and found it very difficult and painful to be in that situation as I’m sure many of us were. My dad took me aside and told me when this bully started to pick on me and push me around to pretend to run away and when he chased me to turn quick and punch him in the nose…..He said, “The force of the punch with him running into my fist would cause his nose to bleed“. He told me that he would never pick on me again. I never got a chance to do that. The bully died 6 months later of a brain tumor. Years later I worked with his dad in the same building. It just happened to be in the building where the guy made the Pasta Vasul. I never mentioned that incident to his dad…..I’ll bet he thought of his son when he seen me……We were the same age…..
Now that you mention that. I was at an event last Saturday morning and shared a story with the woman who sat next to me. It was about gratitude. I suggested that sometimes its overwhelming. I think you know what I mean.. After the event was over she came to me and asked me if she could hug me.. I humbly accepted her wonderful tight 10 second hug reminding her she was not alone.. All she had to do is say thank you.. I had to share that because I think you understand... I have that inner peace..
Please, if anyone knows who my sons are and where they are I would deeply appreciate it if you would Email them a copy of this note. This will be the last commutation ever to my two sons, David and Stephen. Unless they contact me, this will be the last time I will ever write or speak about the way I feel about these two ungrateful people…..
Thank you,
David and Stephen… I'm sure that I can speak for your beautiful Mother when I say this. I’m also absolutely sure she is in Heaven looking down on you wondering why you turned out to be like you are. You can rest assure she wouldn’t have liked it very much. I can say this honestly because I loved her and knew her better than you ever could.
To begin with, when we gave you life, we were very young and inexperienced and if we knew what miserable adults you would be at this point in your lives, you would have never been born. We would have spared you the indignity of becoming the thoughtless, inconsiderate young men that you are today. It was because we were so inexperienced and innocent at that young age that you were conceived. I am sure many other young people regret having children but none more than me.. Your Mother and I tried with all the knowledge we had at the time to teach you to be men. We gave you your life and everything we had… We tried the best we knew how. Now it’s your choices that are causing you the misery and hate I know you feel today. However, I also know for sure that you will never ever stop thinking about us and how we tried to help you and how you didn’t listen.
Regarding me. I cannot undue what you think happened, however 38 years later I am still your Father but you have no idea who I am. Who I have become…That will never change because of the way you are. Just remember I will always be your Father till the day you die. As much as you try, you will never forget that. You will never know me and how I have changed. No matter what you do I will always be somewhere in your thoughts and your thoughts will never change. Especially when you get older…You can make excuses and deny, deny, deny and I truly feel sorry for you. I pity you. Remember, your life came from my seed. I gave you your names. Stephen and David…You came from me! That will never, ever change. At this point in your pathetic lives and you may not think so now but keep in mind, life is very short. In the not too distant future I won’t be here but I will always be with you and my blood is in your kids and their kids as part of me till the day you DIE.. In your travels, wherever you go whatever you do remember to look around you, I’m standing right beside you. Don’t you ever forget that..
Thought to Ponder . . .
"Minds are like parachutes ~ they won't work unless they're open".
As always and forever, Your Dad..
I was reading Capt. Chesley Sullenburger’s book about his life as an a Air Force fighter pilot then as an airline pilot. He’s the guy that landed in the Hudson river and saved all those people. Lately I have been writing about some of my experiences working on the ground at an airport so guys like him could take off or land those planes….I don’t mean anything by that. I just loved my job. I always thought of it as a very exciting thing to do for a living. I mean who else gets to see a plane land with no landing gear. Or a F-105 fighter make a 300 foot pass over main runway at just below the sound barrier speed. That’s about 600 miles an hour. Talk about earth shaking….You can’t imagine what that sounds like. You cannot duplicate that sound in the movies. We, the air traffic controllers, flight deck personal and myself are called Penguins.….The birds that don’t fly…We just make sure that the pilots can…We get them off the ground or land them as safely as possible…I was reading an excerpt on how he diverted to another destination airport to try to save a woman who had a heart attack. She didn’t make it. He said, “She died as he was landing the plane“. I never told the story of the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) pilot who was landing on the same runway I was working on. I glanced up towards the approach and in the distance seen that a Cessna Citation was landing. I seen him in the air coming towards us. I just cleared the runway in time as he touched down where the car was……I saved some lives that day. …Me and my helper, the pilot, the co-pilot and the people on that plane…..I think I’ll write a book about that, leading up to events that happened that day. I’ll describe how I got ready to go to work, not knowing I could be close to losing my life if it wasn‘t for my quick decision making and experience. If I didn't see that plane people would have lost their lives…I could write about how I went over to that pilot and got really close to his face and with my finger pointing at him told him what I thought of the way he landed. I could describe in detail how I reported him to FAA officials… Well, I don’t want bore with details…After all, I didn’t land in a river…….
The Seaside (Waterford, Connecticut)
The Seaside is in Waterford, Connecticut that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. Also known as Seaside Sanatorium or as Seaside Regional Center, it was built or has other significance[clarification needed] in 1934 in Tudor Revival and Classical Revival style, and was designed by noted architect Cass Gilbert. It served historically as a sanatorium.
It is nationally significant as the first institution designed for heliotropic treatment of children suffering from tuberculosis. Its buildings "comprise an exceptional collection of fully realized and generally well-preserved Tudor Revival-style institutional architecture".
Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors and lawyers.
One evening, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed the 95th birthday gifts they were able to give their elderly mother, who had moved to Florida .
The first said, "You know, I had a big house built for Mama."
The second said
you all for reading this, if you need to reach me in the future I will be in Guam!!
This is a picture of my Uncle Lorenzo Ferrari
He was born in 1910 and he died in a drowning
accident in the Canal Basin in Windsor Locks Connecticut
in 1923. He was 13 years old. He was swimming with some of his friends when he disappeared from sight in the murky water.
Years later I questioned one of these friends and
he said they searched franticly to find him but to no avail.
Lorenzo’s parents, my Grandparents had this picture
made in memory of his short life. He left 3 brothers and one sister. Joseph, Louis, Santino and Mary. Joseph was my father. Lorenzo is buried in Saint Mary’s cemetery in Windsor Locks Connecticut. My parents named me after Lorenzo calling me Lawrence. I am proud to be named after him….
Update..... First published on 2/27/2013.
On and on it goes... America is not a country anymore its become a business... The wars and greed gets thicker in Obama's new America. It can't last forever...How long will it be before it implodes? Obama's Illinois sly sneaky grins and winks will fade away. The question is? Is it too late? Have you become one of Obama's new clones? No, not one of those plastic human like machines on the Si-Fi channel or in the movies, not scientifically made but the kind made from your new environment. From now on or at least for a little while there is no middle class! You are ether rich or you are poor. Now you suffer or you don’t. For the poor, rage and anger are the new attitudes. Death, Fear and Terrorism are the norm. For the rich, they just don’t care..There is no in-between. The majority of you have now been programmed and coerced into buying anything they are selling because of instant gratification and because they say you need to have it. Your freedom of choice is literally gone. You are doing these things automatically now. Your corrupt Illinois President and all your corrupt leaders in Washington are bought and paid for by the oil company's greed and big business. You are all blind or have been blinded to what is going on around you. You see and hear only what they want you to see and hear when they want you to see it and hear it. Everywhere you go, what ever you do. Whether its watching TV, being at the airport, buying food at the store, talking on your cell or just driving down the street. They know what you are doing, where you are and when you are doing it. They are watching and listening to you all the time. You have now become a statistic. You are just a number, a bar code. If you are too young to spend money they don’t need you. If you are old, you have become a throw away that is too expensive to take care of. They are slowly taking away your food stamps (SNAP) and health benefit's so you will die. Your peace of mind and serenity have been manipulated into buying material things and for the most part your freedom of choice has been taken away. They continue to lie and say everything is OK and you really believe them... They want you to think that drugs and alcohol are to have a good time and not addictive. They don’t care because all they want is for you to do spend money. That is what its all about. You are officially living in a very sick society and have been for a while now....
The Ten Ways to tell if you are a Obama Clone. Be honest if that is possible anymore..
1. Do you walk around staring at your hand (Cell phone) for more than an hour a day?
2. Do you ever mute a TV show and watch commercials?
3. Could you NOT watch TV if you didn’t want to?
4. Do you let your kids play electronic games when the sun is out?
5. Do you play electronics games for more than 2 hours a day?
6. Are 2 of your 3 credit cards maxed out?
7. Do you buy things you don’t need when you can’t afford it?
8. Do you get up and watch Morning TV?
9. Do you charge things even if you have the cash to pay for it?
10. Do you think that Reality Shows are real?
If you answered no to these questions you have been programed to lie. If you have answered yes to two of these questions you are turning into a Obama Clone and you are being programed....Your life span will be been shortened...
The Catholic theological definition of a lie is, "To deny others access to knowledge to which they are entitled". The dictionary describes a lie as “Deliberately saying something that’s untrue“. A deception, hiding a secret, an untruth and lies of omission are still lies. It’s all the same no matter what you call it or how you say it. From the moment a lie is conceived it begins to grow. It has life. It’s the beginning of its cycle. It has a life span. When a lie is told, someone’s future could be changed. A lie is told or suggested to someone. A lie is always a secret. Its something that someone doesn’t want someone to know. There is always a victim, if convinced and the person doesn’t suspect, a trusting unsuspecting or even a suspicious victim will believe it. Usually a lie is a cover up of a mistake. It could be a broken promise, a secret or something embarrassing. It could be anything and to what degree will it be painful when found out. It depends on who tells the lie. The longer a lie is left untold the more damage or pain it will cause. If left uncorrected the lie will fester and expand for weeks, months, years and maybe even generations. It doesn’t matter, sooner or later the victim of a lie will be hurt. Sometimes the teller of lies is so convincing that they believe the lie themselves. A lie can start at the telling of story, the denial of an affair or even something smaller. The key to being a good liar is to believe your own lies. The first thing the victim does when told the truth, or the truth is uncovered, is wonder why? That leads to anger, pain, hate and resentment. A feeble attempt to cover it up and manipulate the truth usually fails but not always, its just a matter of time and its out in the open. This is a story of a lie in progress that is supposed a secret but as we know, if two people know a secret it isn’t a secret. Remember, there are two kinds of truth. The real truth and the truth as seen through the eyes of a compulsive liar.......L.J. Ferrari
is a High School picture of my Dad on the left. He was the greatest Dad in the world..
Since the digital picture age started a few years ago did you ever notice that there are no real pictures anymore? Remember, what they use to call a photograph? I mean pictures that you keep for 50 years to hand down to your kids for the “memories“. Those memories were triggered by those little pieces of paper...Yes, I agree, digital graphics are clear and it is faster than film but the real pictures on paper are missing. Remember pictures? The kind you had developed and put on paper. You took pictures with your little Brownie or if you could afford it, the 35mm camera that you bought in a real camera store. My wife’s grandfather gave me my first 35 because his hands shook and the pictures came out blurry…His name was George…You then took that roll of film to the local drug store and waited sometimes with anticipation to have them developed to see how they “came out“. Then you knew that years later your kids could look in that box in the back of the closet to see what Mom and Dad did with you and your brothers and sisters or your wonderful relatives years ago. I’ll bet you didn’t know families did mostly every thing together. Beaches, picnics and they visited each others homes almost every weekend. Mom and Dad even visited Grandma and Granddad and took pictures of them. Sometimes they bought little frames and put those paper pictures in them just to remember how wonderful their parents were… I see pictures of my Father and remember what a wonderful person he was and how he patiently and delicately guided me around the pitfalls of this dangerous world. To this day I have a picture of my Dad hanging where I can see it every day…
Well no more. I mean no pictures on paper that you can save to see, say 10, 20, or even 50 years from now. Your kids and their kids won’t know who their Grand parents were, never mind what they looked like.. They won’t know who you were or what you looked like. They won’t have those precious memories that you have… This world and its odd society have even taken away your memories and your past.. Its almost like you are only here for a few years and then discarded.. Its like you don’t count anymore. In a little while you won’t exist…
I realize that my posts have been short with a lot of useless information. Lately I haven’t been in the mood for much of anything… I’m tired of all the bad news and endless chatter and excuses from the politicians and wanna-be famous. Its like it’s a huge cycle and with the new year its just starting all over again. Not one So-called leader in Washington is saying anything but the usual nonsense. No one is addressing the real issues. Anger, welfare, illegal’s, immigration, crime, homelessness, drug addiction, drug smuggling and fraud in the system or corruption. No one is saying anything about the fact that there are too many people and will talk about over-population. No one will say anything about conservation, the environment, joblessness, greed, education, bullying, gay issues or the prices of food. No one will say one word about cops shooting unarmed people. They all live in a bubble. They are all Lawyears. All they do is lie about each other. Not one of these morons knows anything about the real feelings of the people. They all went to private schools and were protected from the outside world. What do they know about emotional pain? These are people with the summer cottages and private beaches. They are all liars. I resent them all….Democrat and Republican. When was the last time anyone one of these freaks flew on a airliner? They all fly with private jets. When was the last time they were searched by an x-ray machine and were embarrassed and had their things pawed through. They all have people that do their flying, driving and shopping. They all have nannies, chefs, servants and public relation people that repair damage or put a spin on a bad story… Not one of these fools really cares about you and me. They have no idea what really happens when you are out of money a week before payday and they are going to shut your lights off before you can pay the bill… They don‘t know the hopeless feeling it is when you don‘t have a job and you have to borrow money from your father to eat……….See what I mean, I don’t have to tell you all this stuff. Its all the same and it will never change and to me its so boring because its been going on for years. The people of today are like clones and sheep being led around by the nose. I have been saying it for months….Its only going to get worse… It will never get better and really change and if it does, the problems will still be there, only you will have to pay double for it… While you are doing that you might as well give them a raise and a new fleet of bullet proof limos. They are going to need them in the future…..
“Ignorance is bliss”. These days that is so true…
What are parents not doing? Are they setting a good example? Do they set limits? At what age do you say enough is enough...Its still OK to say “Don’t watch that show“ Its still OK to say if your friend jumps of the bridge doesn‘t mean you have to! .. Most of the problems start when both parents work and the kids are left unattended. The supervision that young people desperately need is not there. This is how the trouble begins. Young people with very curious minds should be reminded that the TV show they watch is just what the name implies. “A Show” or an act and its not real. Its as simple as that. Tell them its fake and in between the commercials and ads that entice you buy something its designed to titillate your imagination. To provoke you into doing things that will hurt you. To make you spend money. Believe me that is true…Most shows today are designed to sell you something. A game or a product or a drug. TV today is only an advertising tool you involuntarily let into your house so they can make money. Think of it as something, “that sell things continuously“. The entertainment value is practically zero. A few years ago they had something called prime time TV...Now its mostly an exhibition of who can do the most asinine things…Real people are not like this but we are turning into a society that does crazy things to be famous. What they do is just an act for the camera. The shows or sitcoms that are still there are laced with body part jokes that are more for shock value and are not in the least bit funny. Did you notice the bullying epidemic got worst when a show called “Glee” started. The writers of that show wrote “Nip-tuck“. Doesn’t that tell you something? They turned the “Talent show” craze into a show that goes to the edge. One that pushes things to the limit. Yet, no one did anything about it. Those writers are allowed to poison the minds of the kids who will believe the stuff they write..Its the same thing with so-called reality TV. Its not real.. Then there is the internet…Believe me here, parents cannot let young minds go on the internet without supervision… Never ever trust your son or daughter to do this alone. It’s like giving them a handgun and bullets then telling them to never to load the gun… Its mental suicide… The cell phone is something else that is addicting and hazardous to your mental health. Not to mention it costs a small fortune every month. People will do practically anything to pay the cell phone bill every month. We have turned into a society walking around looking at our palms addicted to a hand held computer. How many Politicians and celebrities were caught exposing their private parts via text message? Do your kids do that? Do your kids send sex messages? When was the last time you checked your son or daughters cell phone? Think about that… A young mind is very open to suggestions good or bad. A kid will usually try anything once. TV ads prey on families where both parents work. The advertisers know this and don’t care. Its like they are setting a bad example on purpose. Young minds are being shoved and pushed in the wrong direction everyday. Families are in chaos and being torn apart because of drug and alcohol addiction. Sickness and health mean nothing anymore… My solution is simply not to watch TV. The more I talk to people about this phenomenon the more I hear of them doing the same thing. By not watching TV I feel a lot better and my mind is clear of negative thoughts and ideas. Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. They don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or dies...
The other day I wrote about the TV mini series “Great Expectations” and “Downton Abbey”. I also enjoy reading Jane Austin and Anita Shrive novels about the past. I also mentioned how I wished I was living back in that time period. When I left the house the other day I was thinking about that. As I was driving to the store and as I usually do, going the long way around. I noticed that when I go someplace, it could be anywhere. To the store or just to go out for the sake of going out. I always go by way of the back roads and through neighborhoods with shortcuts where the older homes are. They remind me of growing up and where I used to live. The roads I travel on, on my way to getting there are quiet and you very seldom see any other cars. Years ago there weren’t that many cars and I like it that way. I just came to realized that I’m living in the past…Sort of. Then during one of my walks on the beach where I meditate, I really thought about it and if were up to me things remain the same. Yes, I do have all the modern conveniences plus and my car is a 2005 Mustang…I bought it new. The point is it’s a Mustang and not a foreign car. I try not to buy anything foreign. I wear corduroy pants and leather boots in the winter, now get this, with suspenders and I dress nicely all the time. I ride a bicycle in the summer and I have been doing that for years. My diet is eat anything I want, only half as much. I noticed s while ago that I eat just like my Dad. In fact I eat the same kinds of foods he did. He was born in 1915. Then there is what I watch on TV or in the movies. I lean toward the older movies and of coarse movies about the seventeen and eighteen hundreds and I love the way the people lived then. Stories about Kings and Queens are my favorite…The way I see it, if I lived during that time period I would have been a gentleman and a man who enjoys helping people. I would have rode a horse to where ever I went. A Mustang perhaps? …now, I actually believe I am stuck in the 1950s or 60s. I refuse to accept progress and what it passes for these days, in any way shape or form. In my opinion we are going no where in this country much too fast for the sake of greed and we are taking no hostages. I absolutely refuse to be greedy nor will go after any money. Believe it or not money doesn't mean that much to me..I want to be free and feel safe where I am. I will not take any chances and move forward into this dog eat dog world Why should I go forward into this complicated mess we call a country? I refuse and will do everything I can, not to pay high prices for anything. I do not watch advertising or commercials on TV. I won’t buy anything because the other person has it or because it’s the thing to do. If I want something I will do research to look for the right store and if the price is to high I will wait for a sale. I will not rush anywhere and I am never late for doing anything. I am courteous and kind. I respect the old and young alike. I smile and talk to anyone. I’m stuck in the 50s and I love it. I will not move...
Its been almost 4 years and I still don't watch TV…..I guess there is a science to giving up something… Something addicting that is?… Until they banned cigarette commercials. They programmed you to smoke and it turned out to be addicting and millions of smokers died of lung cancer and related diseases. How long will it be before they ban beer commercials. Did you notice there are no Liquor commercials? What about beer, it does the same thing?…Drink too much and they say, “You are having fun“. They want you to believe you are having fun and you think you are. Ask yourself If its so much fun how come you suffer the next day if you drink too much? Now the Bastards sell beer on Sundays here in Connecticut. That way they can get you to do more crazy things for the 11 o’clock news and guess what? Spend more money…Well, as for me, I feel better each day by not watching television and those insane commercials. I think if I write about it gets easier. Anyway, in a sense I have not been watching for a long time. I was turning it on but muting the commercials but now, even when you mute everything there are hidden commercials. You can’t do that anymore. I have to shut it off. These days watching television is not good for your mental health and behavior…I know they have been using it to reach into your mind. Not only watching every move you make in the stores but using the plastic bar code cards to keep tract of what you buy…Now you feel compelled to spend money you don’t have by way of the television…All you Moms that plant your kids in front of the TV to give them something to do…The Bastards are programming your kids to do, God only knows what? In a sense you are allowing strangers to mess with your kids mind. Here is a test to see if they are being brainwashed…Shut it off and tell them to go out and play…I don’t have to tell you what the result will be. Do I? Try it yourself. Don’t watch TV, go to the park. Take a bike ride. Put on some commercial free music on the stereo. If you can’t do this for even a day you have been programmed..
And I'm going out to buy an used Nintendo 3DSXL for myself for Christmas because I have been good too. Well almost good and I am a nice person just like you..
Merry Christmas hotclaws Sincerely

Great movie! Our so-called leaders in Washington tell the Obama clones that everything is all right. Keep spending don't worry. Check the old factory's and a part of the country that they don't care about.... The way I believe it really is. I don't agree all the time with Hollywood and the bad example they set for America's youth but with this I agree. (Kids learn by example and believe what happens in the movies.)...Great cast....Don't miss this one....
" Line from the movie "Out of the furnace".
Church ain't over till all the snakes are back in the bag.
Life has a expiration date...
My advice is to invest in a flack jacket and wear it if you go into the cities at night. Be careful of the food you eat it might have a disease and don't trust anybody because they might be a con-man or woman. The morals of our kids is non-existent because of the movies and TV and the internet perverts will be on the prowl this winter..Wow, that's something to look forward to...There are too many people not minding thier own business. Every one has a solution but no one fixes anything..
I have been saying this for a very long time. Someone is watching from the time you leave your house to when you get home...Someone knows what you watched on TV last night and where you go on the internet. They know how much money you have in the bank. They know what you buy in the store and what food you eat..You can't do anything anymore without someone making a statistic out of it..They really don't care about you...Its all about the numbers. They can take a picture from a satellite of the license plate on your car when you are going 100 mph on the highway. I checked Google earth a while ago and seen a still of me getting out of my car when I parked in the parking lot..They are watching from everywhere. Check Google earth to see if your house or apartment and car is in driveway or where you work...Its scary...And I didn't even mention the cell phone with the GPS you carry all the time...Its worst than having an electronic implant or bar code tattoo...That is next and they will convince you that its the thing to do..and what's worse is people will want it..??This ain't science fiction baby this is the real thing...
Kids, when you carry your expensive Cell phone, do you know it is tracking and watching you? Its like your shopping card that you give the cashier for that discount. They always ask for that card to keep track of you. Your phone becomes part of you and knows your habits, what you spend and where you are all the time. If you think your government isn’t watching, think again. All these things are just another way to take your dignity and money. It reduces you to a puppet or a predictable statistic. You pay between $600 and $1200 a year for that cell phone to let them do this to you…..
"Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path. Those who do not recover are people who cannot or will not completely give themselves to this simple program" . . .
He didn't mention that in Washington D.C. Oct 4,2013 - I notice more and more every day that they are coming up with a lot of excuses about the black woman that crashed her car into the White House gate. They are saying she was ill or despondent but nothing is being said about her being unarmed. Are they overlooking this on purpose hoping it will go away? I notice they are talking about past shootings. Making more excuses. I hope you realize that what they are doing is setting a precedent. She was despondent like the thousands of others here, in what is left of this country. Think about it! This woman being black was probably elated when Obama was elected President. Imagine her disappointment and rage now and what she was going through. She was a unarmed black woman in a car with a baby and they shot her to death. They, in effect murdered her...Where is Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton? Why aren't they speaking now? Are their heads in the sand? And what is really special here is, her black President is not saying a word...Believe me here...If nothing is being done about her being killed the way she was, its open season on you. It gives them permission to kill you and make up a story later on. For example, if you don't stop when they tell you because just maybe you didn't see or didn't hear them, believe me some of these gunslingers will shoot and kill you. I think you get the point. The police officers or the Washington GSA security guards that shot and killed this woman should be made and example of. They should be arrested and fired. They should have their carry permits and guns taken away.
Yes, we are at war here in America but she was not the enemy. In the past their motto was "Protect and serve". Now all the trust is gone! I do notice the change in their attitude when I talk to them. There is an underlying resentment, a dislike for someone they should be respecting. Its all over their faces and behavior. Exactly like the thugs from the Old Saybrook Connecticut police department who stopped me that fine day. The police of yesteryear are gone. They have been replaced with bullet proof vested, disrespectful thugs.
By allowing them to get away with murdering this woman you have given them permission to kill your Grandson because he didn't hear them say stop.
Its now 12/3/2013 - I notice more and more unarmed kids and people are being shot and killed and nothing is being said or done about it....
They watch because they don't trust you...The behaviors and Words they rarely teach anymore.
Conscience, Consequences, Morals, Sin, Honesty, Responsibility, Values, Trust, Loyalty, Courtesy, Kindness, Thrift and Reverence.
Even our President is not trusted by his own party. I only see a future of sadness and fear. We, the people of America must realize we cannot save the world! We cannot solve the world problems! We cannot pay for the world debt! Someone has to make some hard decisions. There is more to life than to spend, spend, spend. Its virtually impossible to pay the debt we have now and there are some really insane things going on out there and its costing this country a fortune. I understand change but what is happening is happening too fast and its out of control. I am disappointed at the direction and the progress this country is making and I fear for my Niece's, Nephews and Grandchildren and all the young people that have and will have nothing in the future except overcrowding and an expensive greedy environment. They will never know peace and what it was like only a few years ago when I was a young man. What we have today is a drug and alcohol riddled society and promiscuous behavior with no values or morals. It seems like anything goes and if the greedy can take advantage of you they will with no conscience or consequences. They would hurt you financially, mentality, physically and morally just to take your money and they won’t feel a thing. Its like you are left by the side of the road to die. Only with them, its on to the next victim. With you its suffering, payments and credit card bills and if you are very lucky maybe you will have a real job to pay for all that. Success today means to join the madness. Yes, maybe for a short time you will be content but you will never be really happy because its only instant gratification. Anyone with a conscience will feel guilt and remorse later in life. I guarantee there will never be peace in your soul…

I have been thinking about this and will put it in "Freaks and losers" catorgory. In Long Island N.Y a man was trampled to death in a stampede to get into a store on Black Friday. Apparently the man worked there and was in the way when some 2000 people rushed into the store. Comment from one of the creepy crawlers who stepped on the mans face while trying to get to the candy department to save .12 cents was….“That mo-frucker got in the way man“….…That was the event that got me the sickest so far this holiday season. I am sure the non-humans and bottom-feeders will prove me wrong before the end of the month. There were more stupid things these past weeks but I am going to give a special Dirty-diaper award to the 2000 sickos that did that dirty deed. They may have saved a few pennies but and I have said this before, “There is a special place in Hell for those 2000 losers“.
Don't hold me to this but that is a reckless driving fine for Mr. Cote. That is why they locked him up... That is expensive plus his insurance will raised to all time highs. All well and good but they (cops) should be on Rt. 95 where the normal speed is 90 to 100 mph. Big bucks there... There would be no room in the lock-up.. Lots of reckless driving there...
Don't worry with all those growth hormones they are growing them as fast as you can kill them.

Remember a long time ago when we seen something bad happen to someone we would say, Hey, be careful it could happen to you. Well, the way things are going these days we say, its going to happen to you sooner or later even if you are careful. I say, try not to become collateral damage. I realize that human behavior has been questionable for thousand years and people have been wondering why people do what they do since the beginning of time. Things have escalated in the past few years here in America and its my opinion that most of what is going on in this country these days is because of suppressed anger, fear and rage. None of us is bullet proof to the craziness and insanity going on in the world today...We have come to the point here in the United States depending where you live that its too dangerous to venture outside. I realize it has always been somewhat like this, more or less but it seems like its much worse now. Ask yourself a few questions. Do you really know who your neighbors are? Do you trust them? Are you sure? Would you let them baby sit your 13 year old daughter or give them the key to your house to watch while you go on vacation? I'll bet you are thinking about that? Has your home ever been invaded or broken into. Watch out there country dwellers you are on the list now. You can spend a small fortune for that security system but you are not untouchable anymore. I have never heard of that happening till a few years ago. Even you out there in the country in your 5 Million dollar home. You are not safe. Try and buy a hand gun to protect yourself. They are even taking that away from you too. Remember when you could leave in the morning and not lock your door? I do....
Has there ever been a suicide in your family? No, but I'll bet you know someone who has? Has divorce hit your family? Your kids or nieces and nephews? Do you smoke cigarettes? Could you stop if you wanted to?... Right, try it.. How about Alcoholism or Drug Addiction? Do you really know what your son or daughter would do to get the drink or drug he or she needs when craving it? Do you have an Alcoholic or Drug addict in your family? Did you know that alcoholism is an inherited disease?... Maybe it would it would be a good idea to read about addiction and learn. Have you been touched by those diseases yet...Notice I said yet...Have you felt the misery of a death by car accident on the highways these days or by the horrendous weather we are having? Has a family member or even a friend ever been raped or murdered? How about losing your job or your home? Have you ever had your car repossessed? Have you ever been watched so much you are starting to get paranoid? Your cell phone is really a hand held computer that will tell everyone everything. Are you or your kids addicted to your phone. Do you go back and get it if you forget it at home? Could you go a day without it? I did...Try that. Those cards the Supermarket uses. The ones you scan to buy something. Right, even they know what you are doing all the time. Ever wonder why you need a plastic card to buy almost anything? Even the banks know if and when you pay your bills.
How about your kids. Have they left the family nest to go out in the world only to come back to live with you again? Are they saving for their future and retirement? Hell, are you saving for your future and retirement? The way things are going now you won't be able to retire until you are 70. That's only if Social Security has any money left. Will you be healthy enough to work until you are 70?..... 27% of Americans have no savings for that rainy day....All those wonderful politicians you voted for that are spending millions to get elected or reelected are robbing you blind. Ask them about their retirement and health care. Don't believe me? Just wait, you will see!
Remember when you knew the cop on the beat by his first name? The police today are more Military than anything else. They all look alike with their shaved heads, bullet proof vests and combat fatigues. They carry automatic weapons like in a the army. Police departments of today now have hazmat teams and bomb squads. You haven't lived until you have been evacuated from a building because of a bomb threat or a mysterious white powder scare. Kids are being shot in schools everyday somewhere in this country. And no its not just the ghettos. It can happen to you...(((Oh, can I still say ghettos?))) Think about that? Have your children been in a locked down school because of a white powder, gun or bomb scare? Its happening more and more. You are being scrutinized, searched, listened too and watched everywhere you go. From the highways and stores to Facebook and Google. Yes, you are...and there isn't a Blessed thing you or I can do about it.
You and your kids are being programmed by "Nintendo" games or while you are watching those horrible reality shows on TV, which are not real by the way. What about the the TV and movie violence? It is the worst I have ever seen. Because of the movies and TV, promiscuity is normal and modesty is nonexistent? There is nothing left to the imagination. Remember, young minds without supervision are the future copycats and you know what means. They actually need someone to tell them difference between right and wrong...As the years, months and days go by in this computer world the odds of something I just described happening to you is rapidly increasing. So if you think you were careful before, brother you haven't seen anything yet....All because of money...The Bastards out there will do anything to steal or sell you something. Nothing else matters....They don't care about anything else...

Whether you know this or not, your friendly U.S. government has been defoliating "drug fields" in Colombia for the past decade, many thanks to your tax dollars, (nicely wasted, of course, with full support of taxpayers who are thinking like you) so far we have sprayed areas in Colombia the size of the State of Connecticut...the result? You only need to see how that has not stopped the supply of heroin to CT at any time...when there's demand, there will be supply or willing supplier/s. $5-10 a bag of street heroin for something worth $0.10...you do the math. Afghanistan poppy harvest is not for the US market, but still a problem worldwide obviously. But let's stick to our problem here at home in CT...I recommend a peek at www.whoischuu.com and we can talk some more and really do something good and effective for everyone, especially for the families like these featured in these series of Portraits of Addiction. Regards, Sylvester
PS. when I was a student at the Naval War College, 1990-91, a U.S. Air Force officer wrote a paper about using B-52's to carpet bomb drug fields in Colombia. He obviously must have been a B-52 pilot or bombardier, protecting his turf. Go Air power! full disclosure: I'm a Navy guy. Remember 1990-91, is one year after the end of the cold war (Fall of Berlin Wall) and a decade before the War on Terrorism (2003-present)...but remember in1990-91, due Saddam's invasion of Kuwait, the attitude and appreciation for the U.S. military changed 180 degrees from the days after the Vietnam War.
50,00 attendees getting on their high horse, sounding off and pontificating to the rest of the world while comfortably traveling to and from Paris in their private jets. Add in two weeks of hotels, taxis, espressos, pastries, cold cuts and wine toasts, and you realize that these talks are not free in terms of raw emissions. In fact, it's nothing more than man-made hot air and political manure. Money talks and bullshit walks.
Here is a good question for your trusted Senator or Congressman. With the problems that we are now having with heroin in this country why are we not using napalm or an exfoliant on the poppy fields or is everything synthetic now?
There are many ways...Thank you..... So when its time I will know.. 5:34 PM 4/8/2016
I don't think this picture has been posted here yet.... Dr. House Call helped my Mom give birth to me in Hartford Hospital in 1938. I remember him with that cigarette on his lip but mostly for those heart shaped lollypops in that basket by his desk. It was weird I could never understand what he said. When I was in my 20s I went to see him because my finger tips were turning dark purple. He took one look and said I had Reynolds disease. He sent me to the hospital and in a month and 2 operations later I still have my fingers. God bless Dr. Carnerla
Please, if anyone knows who my sons are and where they are I would deeply appreciate it if you would Email them a copy of this note. This will be the last commutation ever to my two sons, David and Stephen. Unless they contact me, this will be the last time I will ever write or speak about the way I feel about these two ungrateful people…..
Thank you,
David and Stephen… I'm sure that I can speak for your beautiful Mother when I say this. I’m also absolutely sure she is in Heaven looking down on you wondering why you turned out to be like you are. You can rest assure she wouldn’t have liked it very much. I can say this honestly because I loved her and knew her better than you ever could.
To begin with, when we gave you life, we were very young and inexperienced and if we knew what miserable adults you would be at this point in your lives, you would have never been born. We would have spared you the indignity of becoming the thoughtless, inconsiderate young men that you are today. It was because we were so inexperienced and innocent at that young age that you were conceived. I am sure many other young people regret having children but none more than me.. Your Mother and I tried with all the knowledge we had at the time to teach you to be men. We gave you your life and everything we had… We tried the best we knew how. Now it’s your choices that are causing you the misery and hate I know you feel today. However, I also know for sure that you will never ever stop thinking about us and how we tried to help you and how you didn’t listen.
Regarding me. I cannot undue what you think happened, however 38 years later I am still your Father but you have no idea who I am. Who I have become…That will never change because of the way you are. Just remember I will always be your Father till the day you die. As much as you try, you will never forget that. You will never know me and how I have changed. No matter what you do I will always be somewhere in your thoughts and your thoughts will never change. Especially when you get older…You can make excuses and deny, deny, deny and I truly feel sorry for you. I pity you. Remember, your life came from my seed. I gave you your names. Stephen and David…You came from me! That will never, ever change. At this point in your pathetic lives and you may not think so now but keep in mind, life is very short. In the not too distant future I won’t be here but I will always be with you and my blood is in your kids and their kids as part of me till the day you DIE.. In your travels, wherever you go whatever you do remember to look around you, I’m standing right beside you. Don’t you ever forget that..
I sorry this EM is so intense but the one you sent me was the, "Straw that broke the Camels back“. I can’t imagine what ever possessed you write something like that? You and I haven’t been a we for many years. I haven't thought about you for a long time except for when you, ------- read on you will get the point... Does what you did to me bother you so much that you are still troubled after all these years? Don’t answer that! That was a rhetorical question and you would only lie and deny it. I was going ignore you like I would any lowlife troll but after considerable thought but with some curiosity I wanted to remind you of what really happened and give you my opinion of what you did. I mean the truth is the truth and you sometimes blank things out. It’s pretty clear to me this is what you did.
When I first met you at Bobby’s Restaurant You attracted me with those sexy eyes but sleeping with and having sex with that Nigger from the junk yard on Scantic Rd. Wanna talk about Ghetto? Now that’s the pot calling the kettle black! Sorry, I slipped, that Black man. Did your Grandmother and Mom know that? Better still, does that wonderful husband of yours know that? Please don’t say you were just confused! That is so boring.. Oh, and I also know about most of those tiny secret indiscretions with guys that we both know. Those guys you don‘t think I know about. Sorry but its to lengthy to go in to. You were quite the girl though. Really mixed up and confused I guess..
Anyways, I didn’t know this at the time but I’m the kind of guy that likes to save losers, hey, that’s who I am, been doing that for years now, so at the time I felt sorry for you, now give me a break.. I was lonely, coming from a sexless marriage and only sober for 2 years and thought I could save the world. By the way, I’ve been sober now for 37 years now. You were a test for me and it looks like I passed.
Actually, call me superficial but it was those really great blowjobs and your big tits that (sucked me in), << good choice of words huh. Well, to be honest, swallowing my cum helped. To this day I still remember fondly how you licked, wet and sucked my balls then sucked my cock dry, swallowing every drop then looking up at me with those sexy eyes and that innocent smile, licking you lips. In fact, that is the only good memory I have of you. I guess that’s a guy thing.. I’ve had better cock suckers since but you are still on my top 10 list. Now that is something to be proud of because there have been many…
Moving on here… Remember before you met me you had a baby and gave it away. Do you remember when you gave up your Daughter? Do you contact her these days to tell her what a wonderful life you have?… Does your hubby know that you have a daughter out there somewhere? Oh, that beautiful woman I was with when I dropped off Nicky off that night was a Saint who helped me get over you.. You forgot about that didn’t you? But I digress…
On to cute Chaussy or what ever her name was.. Nice try bringing her home and getting her to get me alone at night like that.. She tried twice after you went to bed.. The first time I told her no. Second time a few weeks later she got on her knees between my legs and well I think you get the picture.. I succumbed to her charms because I knew what you were doing.. Her eyes rolled back and she swallowed my cum also. After it was over she begged me not to tell you.. I love the way she licked her lips after. She didn't quite make the top 10 but she was good...I’ll bet she never told you about that. You send someone on mission and then she doesn't tell you what really happened. I’ll bet you even trusted her.. She lived with you for a while after, didn’t she? OK, I know I have this blow job fetish. There is something about a pretty young girl on her knees that turns me on.. I’m 76 years old now and it still happens. They still love to suck me off. OK, it takes a little longer to cum but they try harder and I love that they work so long and hard.
However this is not about me. You lied and cheated ((hickey’s all over your neck, telling me you got mugged in the stair well)) I never ever believed you. You hooked up with a drunk who beat you. Now that’s a good choice.. By the way, he’s dead now! Overdosed or drank himself to death a few years later.. Remember when you tried to come back and I threw your cheating, lying, ass out.. Names? Shrinks? I never sent you names of anybody. I dumped you! Plus that really horrible snoring was the frosting on the cake... Like I said, Loser..
So here you are now from Montville Ct. (loserville) writing me 30 years later telling how happy you are, saying things and making decisions about me that you know nothing about. I’m telling you here >>>> Mind your own business, “you bimbo“. Not my words, someone I told about you, described you like that.. They asked why I got hooked up with you and I told them I felt sorry for you…Well, I still pity you and I do pray for you.. Don’t write to me again and mind your own business or I promise I will make it my mission in life to show this to that wonderful husband of yours and the past will really come back to haunt you…
P.S. I'm so sorry, I know this is intense and I'm not really mad. I'm just glad I was able to get that off my chest. Now I feel better.....Thank you...

Welcome to my new site..I thought that when I have something to say that is longer that 140 characters I would put it here. There will be no essays. I will only write things that I feel cannot be cut short. My writing at times is satiric and I try to be humorous. Please forgive me if your feelings are hurt. It was not done intentionally. Feel free to comment.
There is a difference in being a pest and being persistent. I believe that intense interest shows that you mean what you say and that if you want something bad enough, show an honest desire and more times than not you get what you are looking for. Sometimes all it takes is being in the right place at the right time.

I couldn’t have said it better…Literally, I couldn’t have said it better…
Speed is not just on our highways any more. It has migrated from our interstates to our neighborhoods. Accustomed to expressways, drivers of cars, motorcycles, and trucks traveling through my town routinely disregard speed laws, stop lights, stop signs and walk signals, endangering themselves and others. How do you explain such “I could care less,” dysfunctional behavior? Has speed, addictive in all its forms, slipped silently into the human unconscious? Has it caused us to lose touch with the world around us and with ourselves?

CNN is saying that there are many Government jobs available all around the country. They should mention you cannot be a felon or have any kind of criminal record if you apply. These days depending on the job a lie detector test is mandatory. If you are lucky to get the job you also have to be sworn in and its like taking an oath of office. That could be one of the reasons there are so many jobs available. Doing all that and getting a job was one of my more prouder moments. Of coarse it helps if you have experience and are good at what you do.
On the theory that this clunker thing works now. Be advised its only a band aid for "Instant Gratification" It can't last forever.

On Chris Prentiss book “Cure for Alcoholism and Drug Addiction”. It’s more shameless advertising focusing on desperate sick people. I guess he can say what he wants but so can I. There is no “Cure” for addiction. Once you stop using you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The progression of the disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to get better. Addiction is a disease like Cancer, or Sugar Diabetes. You can live a long fruitful life but you can never use drugs or drink alcohol again. Prentiss is just another greedy snake oil salesmen taking advantage of sick people…More on this fool later. Stay tuned

Hi Larry....I wonder if you check in with youtube...but I went to your other site. "Life in a Nutshell".....it's a really nice blog. I've never checked it out until today! And I was suprised and touched to read, what I thought, was about me. Unless you had another woman you talked to in the Midwest....I forgot....you "got around"! LOL! Sounds like you've found someone you truly love...Barbara. So very happy for you. Life here is the same.....good days, bad days. Husband and I are OK....still bicker, but not as bad as before. I think that episode scared both of us. 26 years married on the 16th....wow...life goes so fast!

Everyone has 2 personalities. We just have to look, for him or her. Sometimes we do things. For example one of the things I do or did, is say things that don’t mean. Wise guy comments, small stuff. I’ve learned by my mistakes and turned it into doing and saying nice things to people. .I got the screen name from the movie “Fight Club”. in this movie Brad Pitt played Tyler Durden. Edward Norton’s bad guy, non-existent, alter-ego. Larry (me) thought about it for a while and Tyler was born. I have become a better person by naming and recognizing my alter-ego and keeping him in check…. Remember, you asked and now you know………..~Lar
I just want every one to know what I write in my Blog is my opinion and mine alone. I write about things that happen to me or things that are on my mind the day before or that morning. What I say is usually tongue in cheek and not meant to defame or hurt anyone. When I mention God its whom I choose to be God, not yours or anybody else’s. When I read the news I interpret it around my slanted sense of humor or disgust whatever way I see it at the time. The last thing in the world I want to do is hurt someone and if I did or do I am truly sorry. If I hurt your feelings you can be sure it was not intentional. If you felt that I did, its OK to confront me and or tell me. My EM address is above. This Blog is an amends or a venting tool or whatever I want it to be. Thank you for understanding.....
Dear Tyler,
That's funny how you say that Heather gave Brandon the pills and crushed them up for him. It's a bit strange that you so confidently know this small detail, yet you have no idea what type of pills they were. Maybe you should read the whole accident report and you would see that Chris Whitehouse and Heather both said that Brandon went into her room and snuck into her purse to get the pills and that Heather told him to put them back. You've got some nerve thinking you know the whole story, and on top of all else, mocking Brandon's death. The fact is that Brandon's no longer with us, and although Heather's actions weren't perfect, there's nothing anyone can do now to take back that night. Whatever your standpoint may be, you must at least be aware that Brian also wasn't the picture perfect parent, considering you seem to think you know the whole situation so well. This post is absolutely repulsive and disgusting to anyone who actually cares about Brandon, and you should be ashamed to bring such disgrace to his family in their time of suffering. You're clearly ignorant to the situation and should hold your tongue next time you think about voicing offensive and more importantly, false accusations so publicly about such a tragic and personal incident.
At last the long awaited follow up…… On December 21 I wrote about the woman who gave her son alcohol and drugs. According to the TV news yesterday. Heather Specyalski 38 from Storrs Connecticut, crushed pills, I don’t know what kind and gave them to her son Brandon 15 to sniff along with alcohol to drink. He died in his home from this lethal blend. She turned herself in yesterday and was charged with Risk of injury to a minor resulting in death. This thin, blond, kind of attractive simpleton was arrested in1999 for manslaughter accused of driving the car that killed business man Neil Esposito. Only later to be acquitted because her lawyer said couldn’t have been driving she was performing oral sex on Neil when the car crashed. I did not make that up! I don’t know if I should laugh or cry. In one sense I feel sad for this twit because I know that drugs and alcohol were an influence in what happened to her. I would think that after the 1999 incident she would get smart or at least ask for help. It will take years to escape the insane thoughts that will swirl around in her mind. Remember, we become trapped in our minds with the I should of, and the I could of or maybe if I didn’t it wouldn’t or if I only thought before I did….Its not a pleasant mix…..It makes it so difficult to sleep……….. I think I will take a pill or have a drink or maybe both to help me sleep………..An so it begins again.
Heather will be arraigned Danielson Connecticut Superior Court on Friday. Stay tuned but try to learn by others misfortune. Never say It can’t happen to you.. Her Mom and Dad must be really proud of her....
I am sorry, I meant absolutely no disrespect to Brandon and his memory,. I simply told a story taken out of context, from a story that was on a TV news channel. I told a story of the insane behavior drug abuse causes in our society today. What I read between the lines in your comment was the victims can’t talk and you are right. I didn’t know what the pills were and what they were for. I truly apoligize for my flip attitude. I don’t know what the pills were for but having a son that abused every kind drug imaginable for many years, gives me a vivid imagiation. He was younger than Brandon when he started using. We didn’t lose him but he was very close to death many times. After the many rehabs and institutions. I have seen I felt so much pain and misery from him and others that I sometimes become insensitive. It could be a little of that anger still lurking in the background. To me its coping mechanism and that is part of the cycle we all live with. In this case I hope and pray that Heather is OK and clean and sober. To forgive her is very important for your recovery and hers...My mind never sleeps. Its filled with, the after thoughts of the, if only, and the what ifs and if I could have changed the this or that’s and I am helpless because I am only a Dad. That same son is the one I wrote about yesterday. I saved his life countless times and he hasn’t talked to me in three years. One the biggest problems is later we have to live with the consequences of this outrageous behavior. To this day people still come up me and say Hey, aren’t you so an so’s father? My prayers are with you and the families that drugs and alcohol destroy and shatter. I truly apologize for my behavior and attitude and pray that you will forgive me and try to understand. As of this moment the names and tags from the post you read are removed and if I can do anything else to help you please let me know…Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I truly appreciate your feedback. My prayers are with you and the families involved, You are not alone..

Last night while talking to Barbara on the phone I heard Willie, my handsome cat gagging
and throwing up a hairball. He was successful at doing that but in the process passed out from lack of air. I couldn't find him so I told Barb that I would call her back. He was no where in sight and by the time I found him a few seconds later he was laying on his side with his eyes glazed over. I stood frozen in my tracks but in a moment I knelt beside him and tried to move him. He was as limp as a rag doll. In the seconds it took for me too realize what happened he tried to get up but his back legs wouldn’t work. It was like he was having a seizure. At first I thought that was what it was. He then flopped down and just laid there staring, lifeless on the floor. A second later I was on my knees again. I picked up his limp body with my left hand just under the front legs and placed his back against my stomach. I then used my right hand on his rib cage just under his front legs and gave him chest compressions. This five year old cat was unconscious and only moved when the air finally went into his lungs.. I carefully stood him up and only then did he stagger to the area where he likes to lay down…I picked him up again and put him on the bed where he laid there resting from his ordeal. I don’t know if he would have died but I do know that I will brush him every day whether he likes it or not. He had better get used to it. I gave him his hairball medicine a few minutes later which he doesn’t like either but had better get used to that too. I actually thought that my loving little cat had died or will have brain damage. I don’t know what I would have done. I haven't been that scared in a long time and I will never take him for granted again not that he would ever let me.. I learned once again, that life is short and just when you think everything is working out to your advantage, little reminders are tossed your way to keep you in line. Later that night he snuggled up next to me in bed and only left when he was hungry an hour later. I got up in the middle of the night 4 times to check on him. He was fine. Like my Mom used to say...."Never a dull moment."
I am going on a bike ride now to calm down. What a night!

Seven little words…“Calm down you will do just fine” to me means set any obstacles aside and forge ahead to be successful in your all your endeavors, even against insurmountable odds, even when things are not to your liking. When things seem impossible go the extra length and try harder to achieve honor and happiness. You can change your life dramatically by choosing to do something or not doing something, Its the pitfalls that are invisible. There ,I said it and I feel better.

As you know or don't know not to long ago I got Plished, I don't what they call it but anyway I want you to do something for me...
I want to stay PRIVATELY connected with you. However, with the recent changes in FB, the public can now see activities in any wall. This happens when our friend hits "like" or "comment", automatically, their friends would see our posts too. Unfortunately, we cannot change this setting by ourselves because Facebook has configured it this way.
So I need your help. Only you can do this for me. PLEASE place your mouse over my name above (do not click), a window will appear, now move the mouse on “FRIENDS" (also without clicking), then down to "Settings", click here and a list will appear. REMOVE the CHECK on "COMMENTS & LIKE" by clicking on it. By doing this, my activity amongst my friends and my family will no longer become public. Many thanks! Paste this on your wall so your contacts would follow suit too, that is, if you care about your privacy. Thanks!

I feel like a long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs…
Its finally happened! I have become an “Afterthought“. Have you ever became one of those? This is how it happened to me…A while ago, a past girl friend started calling me on a regular basis. Sometimes twice a day… Keep in mind that this has been going on for more than 2 years. She would call just to talk but more for advice and friendship and also to stay with me sometimes at the beach of coarse. I mean I wasn’t born yesterday…Believe me here I’m not looking for anything and I like it that way. I have been through all the love stuff with this kid so trust me here. There is no ulterior motive. Just good old fashion friendship. I don’t hold grudges or have resentments. Yes, there are people like me left. From the old school. Honest and friendly. I’m just one of those proverbial nice guys that is getting more and more rare to find each day. Well, it seems this young lady has found a boy friend. Believe me here I don’t care. Its true that I have wants and needs but she is definitely not one of them. I really don’t care but in a nice way. What happened was the phone calls stopped. It looked like I had lost my position as personal confidant, mentor and advisor. Then as an “Afterthought” two weeks later she called one day and asked me to do her a favor. I said I would but really, I won’t…. That’s when it happened! I felt like I became an “Afterthought”.

I am so sorry. I spoke to soon… There are still obnoxious brain washing commercials flooding the NBC network even during the Olympics. Forgive me. I haven’t watched TV in such a long time I thought maybe that something had changed. I was wrong. So very wrong. The programming of your brain continues. They continue to try to dumb you death. From the Political ads with all the corrupt Politian’s and their false promises to the expensive car ads with all their lies. Its all there. I will still watch the Olympics but I promise to mute all the insanity between the events. I think what happens is as the morning progresses the more viewer tune in they add the Commercials…I should have known that. Again I am so sorry. Please disregard the last post. It won’t happen again…
No lengthy bitch post here. Just a thank you. Guess what? Hang on your seat. Are you ready? Wait for it….Wait for it …..I am watching the Summer Olympics on TV. Yes, that’s right TV. A 40 inch Sony TV in high definition and you know what? So far there is almost more Olympic coverage than there are commercials and ads. I almost don’t believe it. Yes, there are ads but most are designed with the Olympics in mind and mutable. What happened? Did someone finally get smart and say maybe we are losing viewers with all those insulting ads. Did someone with a brain hear us. Thank you NBC keep up the good work…
I have been saying this for a very long time. Someone is watching from the time you leave your house to when you get home...Someone knows what you watched on TV to where you go on the internet. They know how much money you have in the bank. They know what you buy in the store and what food you eat..You can't do anything anything anymore without someone making a statistic out of it..They really don't care about you...Its all about the numbers. They can take a picture from a satellite of the license plate on your car when you are going 100 mph. on the highway. I checked Google earth a while ago and seen a still of me getting out of my car when I parked in the parking lot..They are watching from everywhere. Check Google earth to see if your car is in driveway or where you work...Its scary...
A while ago you said I was Ignoring you. I started to think about that…This is the result of those thoughts… Its just like you did a few years ago when you disappeared so many times to various places to let yourself be programmed to take the advice of a lonely wretched fool who just wanted to have someone to accompany her into that pit of crap she fell into….I hold you and that sick freak indirectly responsible for death of my only true friend Albert. I put him your charge and you still couldn’t handle that. You chose to do what you did while I couldn’t anything about it. You knew that .. In your blind and foolish way by falling into the pits of instant gratification you spoiled what we had by letting yourself be programmed and taking the advice of some one who was obviously jealous of you. Relationships are built on kindness and trust and we had that until you clouded the view with the suspicions I had and could not ignore. You lost something that you will forever look for the rest of your life and never find. Its true, I really don’t think we could have lasted because when an honest person and dishonest person are together they clash and I think that is what happened to us more or less.. Ignore you, I don’t think so. I am just telling you what a real friend should have told you…What we had, all those memories will never be replaced because you can't ever replace me…You will compare but it won’t work. You can justify but its unjustifiable. Those days and the nights of making love. The beaches and our little indiscretions. The laughing and fun are over but will be forever imbedded in your mind. By making the biggest mistake of your life you have lost all the material things that you will forever only dream about . Believe that!
When the Student is Ready, the Teacher Will Appear”
I overheard a comment from my good friend Tina while she was talking to her friend…She was saying, ”Its so sad you have rely on chemicals or a drink to have a good time or go to sleep. I understand the meds the doctors prescribes to you. Now it seems everywhere you go they want you to drink.
Television is still banned in my house. Just kidding, its really about choices and choosing and I choose not to be brainwashed…Its not banned and if I have company they can watch anything they want. We usually end up watching commercial free movies on the internet. However I do miss certain things…Once you stop doing something habit forming you also miss the good things, if there are any good things about the habit. When I watched morning television the only good things were watching my favorite weather girl Stephanie Abrams on the Weather channel and as far as I am concerned the most famous traffic girl in this area Teresa LaBarbera from New Haven 8. My favorite news girl was Heather Hegedus but she moved from Channel 3 in Hartford to Boston. I felt bad about that. I looked forward to seeing these ladies. These three woman are not only gorgeous but they have brains and are good at what they do. What I don’t like is and you knew there would be a, “Don’t like“ didn’t you? The television stations and networks exploit their sexuality to attract viewers, mostly guys, who will ultimately watch commercials and spend money. I mean what normal guy doesn’t like to see an attractive woman. If you think about that, there isn’t really anything wrong with that. Well, along with the good guys that watch and there are a few, come the perverts and scumbags that make rude comments. Their insults and dirty words are usually made on Facebook or other social media where you can be a so-called follower or fan of these woman. I often wonder why these beautiful woman would subject themselves to this scrutiny and I feel embarrassed for them. I think the bottom-feeders that say these things had parents who brought them up in a sewer and taught them to roam the playgrounds and hallways in High Schools, if they made that far, as bullies. I wonder what Mom and Dad think when they read some of the things written about their daughters. Enough said. Its very discouraging to see how much our morality has degraded just to sell something and make money…
“Unofficial Poll”
I have just seen an unofficial polls on who you would vote for in the next Presidential election and it seems as though, believe it or not the existing President was the winner…Although I think it is a long shot. It is a possibility, which tells me its time for me to predict what will happen if he is reelected. First, if the thought of him being elected again doesn’t scare you to death, something is wrong with you. If you can’t see or don’t know what is going on in this country now, you deserve a guy like this. He tearing the fabric of this Nation to shreds…Second, if you are under 30, do what you want because you weren’t here when living in the United States meant something special. I can’t blame you because you don’t know any better. I accept the fact that things change with time but now things are changing much too fast. We never have a chance to enjoy what we have. This is what has been going on, lets say in the past 12 years…With Bush and this guy as Presidents, the United States is Trillions of dollars in debt. We will never recover from that debt and all the foreign aid money we give away. We have wars in the worst places in the world costing Billions of dollars. Not to mention the cost of the lives of our young men and woman both mentality and physically, If you are young you don’t remember North Korea and North Vietnam and the peace talks our Government had with those countries. Our goal at that time was a peaceful world…Now, with this President, there are never any talks about peace and tranquility, only about the economy and making money. In his America, Greed is encouraged. We live in a country where a career is a job in a fast food restaurant or in a super market stocking shelves. I cant imagine doing that for thirty years…On Wall street anything goes and the way the shyster lawyers have twisted the words of the Constitution to make loop holes for politicians taking donation money is outrageous. They are all devious and corrupt. There is not an honest Politian out there. You can’t trust any of them. With the existing President we have economic and job problems and he thinks we have to pay for everything including bail outs and all the foreigners and illegal aliens. There has never been so many people on welfare. Everywhere we go we are watched with security cameras and practically stripped searched and assaulted at airports. He’s allowed the Arabs and the oil companies to rape the American public at the gas pump. I said I was going to predict what will happen if he is reelected. Well, I changed my mind. Think about this and you figure it out for yourself. In the first four years he had to lay low and be really careful what he did. Well, If you think things are bad now, think about what will happen if he is reelected for a second term when he has nothing to lose.
I will not be told, be coerced, suggested to or threatened in any way on what to buy, when to buy it, how to buy it, how to pay for it, how many ways I can pay for it or and I especially hate when someone tells me that I can’t live without it. I will only buy exactly what I need, when I need it and only if I need it. I will only pay cash. I will never ever charge anything. If I can’t pay for it, I don’t need it. I will only use free checking and the free debit card that comes with it. I will not own a charge card. I will never pay interest on anything. There is no one anywhere that can convince me to buy anything if I don‘t want it. To even try, is a waste of time. I won’t believe anything you say if you try to convince me to buy something. I’ve heard it all before. It will never happen. If you advertise on the internet and I happen to see it I will make it my mission to go out of my way not to buy your product. I don’t watch network or cable TV but if I happen to see something I need or use I will wait for it to go on sale, use a coupon or travel a 100 miles out of my way to get it for the price I want to pay. The result of all this is, I don‘t owe anything. Not one nickel, not one red cent to anyone. There is no way on this planet to make me charge anything. Let me give you one example. My cell phone or as I like to say, my pocket computer…Living by those rules you can imagine how hard it was to find a carrier and NOT sign one of those lengthy contracts forcing you to pay sometimes for years for internet and phone service. The kind that send you a nasty bill every month warning you, if you don’t pay they will shut it off. This all started six years ago when I changed servers and I bought a “pay as you go” (minutes) from someone I will refer to as a server. After buying minutes for one year and keeping their phone service I was automatically put on what they call, I think, a good customer list and can never lose the minutes I paid for. I can now keep those minutes or accumulate them for a full year from the date I purchased them.. I now have $50 dollars worth of minutes I can’t lose. Got it so far? Three inexpensive phones later and bringing one back I didn’t like, the battery kept dieing. I finally got a really good Android phone that gets internet service. I say good because its fast (4G) and I paid $200 dollars for it. Its my phone no one can take back if I don’t pay. Now because I have the pay as you go service I can turn on the internet for a minute or a day if I want to.. The cost is $2.00 for 24 hours. I look at it this way…I don’t ever turn on the internet so I don’t pay for internet service but I have the phone that gets it if I want it. I have discovered that every where I go they have internet or what they call free Wi-Fi service. I even have a wireless router that I bought at the thrift store for $10 dollars…Not connected because I don’t need it…The phone I have works great with the free Wi-Fi…I’m really surprised how good it works….Total price… zero, nothing at all….It took me a while to find this but I’m glad I did what I did…I will never understand why anyone would pay for something if its free.
I was in a melancholy mood this morning…I was thinking about my old home town and my Grandchildren. I guess its because they are having problems in the town with the school kids. Drugs and other issues…From I what read it’s a very scary situation. I get upset but I have to remember there is nothing I can do about what is going on up there…It is happening all over the country. It had to come to Windsor Locks Connecticut sooner or later. I guess the power of pen is going to have to do…While thinking about the cliché, “Ignorance is bliss”. These days that is so true…What are parents not doing? Are they setting a good example? Do they set limits? At what age do you say enough is enough...Its still ok to say “Don’t watch that show“ Its still ok to say if your friend jumps of the bridge doesn‘t mean you have too! .. The problems start with both parents working. The supervision that young people desperately need is not there. This is how the trouble begins. Young people with very curious minds should be reminded that the TV show they watch is just what the name implies. “A show” or an act and its not real. Its as simple as that. Tell them its fake and in between the commercials and ads that entice you buy something its designed to titillate your imagination. To provoke you into doing things that will hurt you. To make you spend money. Believe me that is true…Most shows today are designed to sell you something. A game or a product. TV today is only an advertising tool you voluntarily let into your house so they can make money. Think of it as something, “that sell things continuously“. The entertainment value is practically zero. A few years ago they had something called primetime TV...Now its mostly an exhibition of who can do the most asinine things…Believe me, real people are not like this but we are turning into a society that does crazy things to be famous. What they do is just an act for the camera. The shows or sitcoms that are still there are laced with body part jokes that are more for shock value and are not in the least bit funny. Did you notice the bullying epidemic got worst when a show called “Glee” started. The writers of that show wrote “Nip-tuck“. Doesn’t that tell you something? They turned the “Talent show” craze into a show that goes to the edge. One that pushes things to the limit. Yet, no one did anything about it. Those writers are allowed to poison the minds of the kids who will believe the stuff they write.. Then there is the internet…Believe me here, parents cannot let young minds go on the internet without supervision…Never trust your son or daughter to do this alone. It’s like giving them a handgun and bullets then telling them to never to load the gun…Its mental suicide…The cell phone is something else that is addicting and hazardous to your mental health. We have turned into a society walking around looking at our palms addicted to that hand held computer. How many Politicians and celebrities were caught exposing their private parts via text message? Do your kids do that? Do your kids send sext messages? When was the last time you checked their cell phone? Think about that…A young mind is very open to suggestions good or bad. A kid will usually try anything once. They prey on families where both parents work. The advertisers know this and don’t care. Its like they are setting a bad example on purpose. Young minds are being shoved and pushed in the wrong direction everyday. Families are in chaos and being torn apart because of drug and alcohol addiction. Sickness and health mean nothing anymore…My solution is simply not to watch TV anymore. The more I talk to people about this phenomenon the more I hear of them doing the same thing. By not watching I feel a lot better and my mind is clear of negative thoughts and ideas. We are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. They don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win…If you don’t you will feel alone and left out because everybody does that. Everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying.
I’m still not watching commericials. Its been a while now and I feel better..It truly makes a difference to stay away from these things…I’m not so negitive and lately can find humor in things that are borderline funny…In other words my sense of humor is coming back…A few of the benefits of what I am doing is not being told what I need, when I need it, where to get it, how to get it, how much to take, when to take it and who uses it. In other words I took back control of the way I live. I didn’t believe this but you really have to deprogram yourself one day at a time to get away from this control they have over you…I actually heard a celebrity say the other day, “TV today if you can call it that”, is not a healthy thing…. Like I said I do have the set on (a 42 inch Sony) but only to the commercial free Music Choice Channel set on pop hits…The other day I bought new sound system (Home Entertainment Center) with a sub-woofer. Oh My God…This thing will blow your mind…The music is out of this world….Its beautiful…I did watch the opening and guest host of SNL because I have been doing that for 30 years…I quickly turned off after that and went to bed…I’ll see the rest on the, “guess where” commercial free…
“Six Words”
These two sentences contain 6 words that are almost non-existent in our society today…
When a modern day woman yields to Temptation and her Morals are in question she will lose her Dignity and Reputation. Later her Conscience will bother her and she will suffer the Consequences of past behavior. L. J. Ferrari
Its been ten days and still no TV…..I guess there is a science to giving up something…Something addicting that is?…Until they banned cigarette commercials. They programmed you to smoke and it turned out to be addicting and millions of smokers died of lung cancer and related diseases. How long will it be before they ban beer commercials. Did you notice there are no Liquor commercials? What about beer, it does the same thing?…Drink too much and they tell you, “You are having fun“. They want you to believe you are having fun and you think you do. Now the Bastards want to sell beer on Sundays here in Connecticut. That way they can get you to do more crazy things for the 11 0’clock news and guess what? Spend more money…Well, as for me, I feel better each day by not watching television and those insane commercials. I think if I write about it gets easier. Anyway, in a sense I have been doing this for a long time. Muting the commercials but now even when you mute everything there are hidden commercials. You can’t do that anymore. I have to shut it off. These days watching television is not good for your behavior…I know they have been using it to reach into your mind. Not only watching every move you make in the stores but using the plastic bar code cards to keep tract of what you buy…Now you feel compelled to spend money you don’t have by way of the television…All you Moms that plant your kids in front of the TV to give them something to do…The Bastards are programming your kids to do God only knows what? In a sense you are allowing strangers to mess with your kids mind. Here is a test to see if they are being brainwashed…Shut it off and tell them to go out and play…I don’t have to tell you what the result will be. Do I? Try it yourself. Don’t watch TV, go to the park. Take a bike ride. Put on some commercial free music on the stereo. If you can’t do this you have been programmed..
“Deprogramming Myself”
I guess you’d say I’m out of the loop or not in the loop,,, However people say that. Its becoming nice to only know things that I choose to know…I chose watch the monologue of SNL last night with Katy Perry. It was a repeat of the past Christmas show…I mean who wouldn’t watch that? She fits right in with all those wonderful entertainers…My anger or grouchiness has subsided somewhat. Someone said to me the other day, “boy you are cranky“…I like that one the best.. Its been eight days so-far and I have seen no news with crazy people or insane commercials and I feel much better today…My intentions are the same, no news, no shows. I will watch all the new shows by way of the “other media” commercial free. I will only watch the news I choose to watch by way of EM alerts. As I continue with my new TV rules and deprogramming myself. I have decided to only watch Red Sox baseball and Pro Football when its on…I will follow the Red Sox only if I think they can make it to the playoffs. Good luck guys…I know this is far into future but it will be the same for the Giants…Only if I think they can make to the play-offs… The thing here is to not automatically turn on the TV. Its to turn it on to see something I want to see and if its not on turn it off. To start doing something like this, I think its very important to flush your brain and not watch anything for seven days. Sort of get out of the habit of just turning on the TV on just for the noise. Its exactly what the Bastards want you to do…. After that its when you are done watching what you want…Turn it off….Don’t let them brainwash or program you again. I plan to continue this rebellion against TV (deprogramming) so stay tuned…
If you remember, I said I was going to stop watching television and those brain washing ads and commercials. It was more of a commitment than anything else. For those of you that don’t what that is…A commitment is saying you are going to do something then actually doing it…Well, its been 7 days and I haven’t turned on my TV…Not for a minute not for a second…In fact I don’t even know if it still works…The bottom line here I have been commercial free for 7 days…Seven days of no morons trying to beg, trick or tell me I need something I don’t want nor would I even consider buying. Here is what is going on now and I kid you not…I think I am having withdrawals from not watching…This includes a slight anger over nothing and my mind telling me its OK to watch for a little while. However, I don‘t! I will not subject myself to insanity of the news today or even the weather…OK, here is my alternative…My hand held computer (phone) for the weather if I need it…Living a mile away from the ocean its necessary. I see all the TV shows and movies, I mean (all) the shows new or old commercial free! Guess where? This anger thing that is going on will pass and soon I won’t even think about the hot weather or traffic girl. The Bastards will do anything to get you to watch! You have heard of a target audience haven’t you? Well I’m not a target or a consumer and if I choose to be a customer I will. I have no interest in who kills their wife, Grandmother or kids, no interest in the basketball and their highly overpaid coaches. No interest in what is on sale…Actually they just jack up the prices 50% then give the morons a 25% discount. I surprised you don’t know that…My theory is that if I don’t know what is going on, it won’t bother me…Now I choose, what I watch, when I watch it and how I watch it. Yes, I post my Blog with news that I choose by getting alerts to certain new or on going stories or people that I consider interesting. I will not allow them to poison my mind with the insane things they want show me…See what I mean, there is a little anger between those lines? Please bare with me, it will pass.
Let me make one thing clear I am not consumer! I am a customer! Consumer implies someone who will buy anything because just to have it. People today say sheep, I say minions. I am not one of those. I promise only to buy only the things I need at the lowest possible price. I will drive 25 miles to save a penny on gas. I will never trade in my Mustang to buy a stupid looking foreign car. If the price is high in one store for food I will drive to another store to find the lowest price I will not buy 2 or 3 to get one free. I will not
Things are really changing…I was thinking the other day..
Piercing
I don’t know how to fix the type size….I know how to fix it but I want it to be my default size unless I change it..
Best line from the last episode of TV show, “American Horror Show”….This would be the doctor talking to his ghost patient. “You are the worst kind of Psychopath. You are Charismatic, Compelling and a Pathological liar”.

Remember when there were just clothes for the extra tall or for large people? Well now they are making clothes to fit rotund people…
Thank you visiting my page….You could say this Blog is a passport to the page with the story on it…You can read the headline and if you decide you want to read the whole story….Click the link. If not, my comment is there and the most of the important information is below the link. I think it’s a time saver and I have no ads or commercials to distract you. The point is I am not looking for, or trying to sell you anything…
Comment…….Electricity already costs too much along with gas and fuel oil. To do this would be just another excuse for them to take your money. I mean they make Billions in profits. We are at the breaking point now. Do we lose the power that often? Is it really that inconvenient to lose it for a few days or even a week? Maybe you should prepare for such an event before it happens...I mean they do warn you about these things...I think Direct Burial on all new instillation's with no extra cost to the customers would be the thing to do. Its not up to us to do or pay for these things. Its up to the provider to give you what you pay for. Its their problem not ours...
I stopped to get gas today at my local gas station. The price was $3.58 a gallon…Its the kind of station that you go into to pay cash or you can charge it at the pump...I always pay cash and never put in more than twenty dollars worth…It’s a far cry from the two dollars worth I put in when I was a kid and got over eight gallons for that price. ….The tank on my Mustang hasn’t been filled to the top since the year 2008... Don’t get me wrong I could fill it up…I just won’t…I will not spend the money nor haul around the extra weight of a full tank of gas. Today I asked the girl at the register how she thought people were doing while paying this outrageous price for gas…Her friend over heard my question and came out of the back room to explain how bad she felt for the people with families and the hardship they must feel shopping for groceries. …The cashier thought that everyone was hurting because of the high prices…Both went on to explain that being married and having children was a really hard thing to do….They spoke right up on this Issue because I feel that this is what is on everybody’s mind. These two young woman were genuinely fearful.. The capper was when the cashier told me that a lot credit cards were being denied because they were maxed out…I have been saying this all along. How much more can we take? When is someone going to do something about this…Protests are going on all over the country…Anyone that is anybody is looking the other way. Your Politicians are silent, pretending its all right. They don‘t care about you or anybody but themselves and how much they can steal…No one is saying anything and all the while the economy is going down the drain and the prices keep going up…
I worked successfully as an Airport Electrician at Bradley International Airport as many of you know for a lot of years…In my tenure there I had access to Emergency Electrical generators for many reasons and I never had to use one to keep warm in my house...I remember losing power on Runways and in the Terminal building for various reasons. Most were repaired by me within a few hours with no help…The only huge power failure I can recall was when we lost the power grid for the Northeast. I think it was for 3 days. I never had to use the generators for personal use. I say this because last Saturday where I used to live in the Windsor Locks Connecticut area they had a early October snow storm. They still don’t have power and according to my son it looks like bomb hit the area with trees and broken wires hanging everywhere.…There are 500,000 families still without power. Also while I worked at that airport I have never heard of or seen a pilot have to keep the people on the plane for any longer than a few minutes. They always let them to go to the International wing of the building to wait in a warm comfortable area.. In the past I have been through hurricanes and tornados and we have never lost power for more than a few days… I remember waiting in a gas line for fuel but never more than a few minutes and it never got out of control. Everyone waited in line patiently with no cutting in line…I think they said there was a gas shortage and the price went from $.50 to $.75 cents a gallon. In past 3 or 4 years I have written about the craziness and changes of our weather and society and what is happening out there has escalated exactly how I predicted it would… Lately the banks have backed off on raising credit card prices…Warning! Watch out, those Bastards would suck the blood out of your soul if they could…Believe me! They will get your money one way or another. What is going on out there is out of control and getting worse every day. There are protests and riots in every major city. People are being peppered sprayed and arrested. They like to play it down and ignore what is happening but there are more than just a few people that are angry and upset. The Bastards don’t say anything because they are afraid and by not saying it out loud they are hoping the problems will disappear ..Your political leaders, they certainly aren’t mine, are looking the other way like the citizens of this country are nothing. I heard someone say the people were like sheep. I mean If I know this stuff is going to happen, why doesn‘t anybody else? …Your President is raising money for reelection and has no idea or doesn’t care what is going on…All those morons that are running for the highest office in the land still haven’t said a word about the high gas prices. They even have you buying those dumb looking cars that look like arrow heads...The Bastards on Wall street are still raping our society shoveling money into accounts fueled by high oil prices all over the world…Greed and corruption is rampant… The bottom line here is…I have never ever seen anything like what is going on in the world and unless something changes it will only get worse and you can take that to the bank because you can’t take anything else…
I went for a ride last Friday…First I went to my local library to pick up an Anita Shrive book on cassette I ordered. It was written in 1989. She is the best and I have read all her books…As I was leaving the library, I thought, now where I am going? Then I thought about a certain kind of candy I like at a certain chain store…Plus I had a 5 dollar coupon. As you know I don’t advertise so I won’t say the name of the store or the candy. So off I went heading in that direction. This is a story about how I let fate take me where it wanted me to go…I went to that store and they didn’t have what I wanted so I thought what next?….I said, the hell with it and decided to go home…Here is where gets odd…Something happened and I thought, I think I’ll do just the opposite…and go to a store of the same name in another town near by. The car headed that way…I was steering but I was doing the opposite of what I wanted…It was an odd feeling doing something that had no plan. It was like I was outside myself watching myself do this…In my mind I thought, go with it and let it happen just to see what happens next… I did and I ended up talking to the sales girl in the other store who told me that they don’t stock the candy anymore…I said why? You can’t keep the ben full, you keep selling out. I makes sense to double the order just to have enough… She gave the typical salesgirl, duh, like I don’t know, I just work here shoulder shrug, and I left...I sat in the car and then it occurred to me not to give up. So against the way I was feeling I or I should say the car headed for the next closest store which is about 20 miles away…Off I went down through to bowels of Bank St. New London, across the Gold Star bridge to Groton Connecticut…I found the store I was looking for and of coarse they didn’t have what I wanted so I made a decision and bought my second and third favorite kind of candy. Total price with the 5 dollar coupon. .50 cents…I grinned and sales girl gave me a funny look. I know for sure that this sale cost them money… I left and walked to the other side of the parking lot where I usually park and sat in the car wondering where it was going to take me next.. It wasn’t long before it decided to take me to Mystic Connecticut. Remember the movie “Mystic Pizza“? That’s the one…Remember the scene with “Julia Roberts” standing on the that bridge? Well, they are working on that bridge now so don’t go there. Even during the week there is a lot of traffic…I managed to get across that famous bridge and the car headed to Stonington…Remember the movie with “George Clooney“, “The Perfect Storm”? Well the car went past that boat yard and took a left through the woods and I ended up at Mystic Aquarium. I don’t know why but I grabbed my camera and took a chilly walk around a nearly vacant Mystic Village….Later I had lunch at one of the tourist trap restaurants. I felt sorry for the cute young waitress with the nice smile so I left her a good tip…I just did the opposite of what I thought about. I only took two pictures of nothing. The empty streets of the village...I didn‘t even go the Aquarium…Years ago I took kids there on field trips more than a few times and there is something about fish in a barrel I don’t like.. …It really felt like I was standing by looking at myself do things…I didn’t make mistakes and I knew what was happening, it was just where I found myself and I let it happen…It was one of those days….
I have some good news….....Wait, I’ve got think of something…....Sorry, there is no good news.
Serendipity
Am I supposed to care or just feel bad? There is an earthquake in some obscure place in the world. Do they want money or American foreign aid?…You know sooner or later a lot of those poor people will end up here in the United States on some kind of Federal aid or Welfare…Can’t the countries around the world take care of themselves? Are their leaders so corrupt that they steal all the money from their taxes including the aid we send them. They know, “Acts of God” will happen! Aren’t they prepared? Why do we have to interfere? Why do we have to pay? This isn’t 1776, it’s a whole other ballgame. Every once and a while lets say to these morons! Sorry dudes, you are going to have to handle this catastrophe all by yourself. Or you can call the Arabs, they have all the United States money. Maybe they will feed your poor and homeless…Remember, Gas and heating oil is $4.00 a gallon here. I don’t see anybody caring very much about that except for the people trying suck more money from us……..A Millionaire race car driver crashes and dies…Care or not? He knew his life was on the line…It was his choice to go, now think about this! 225 MPH and guess what? Right, to make more money…Don’t shed too many tears.. Life is about choices!……That American guy swimming with Sharks in Australia dies, attacked and eaten by a Great White…Good for the Great white…That’s a classic example of someone with no brains….Now those morons are going Shark Hunting to kill the beautiful shark for doing what comes natural… Do I sound insensitive?…My God I hope so…The Race car driver and shark man deserve what happened to them…… MJ’s Doctor was hired and paid $150,000 a year by MJ just to give him intravenous drugs because MJ had enough money to do that…Said, “He couldn’t sleep“….I say, maybe his wig was too tight…. Should I feel bad or care what happens to that drug dealer doctor or even care what happened to the drug addicted singer…Don’t you realize what happened, was inevitable? Choices remember? Anybody that uses drugs like that will die before his or her time…Like the guy swimming with Sharks….That is the most stupid thing I have ever seen…His Dad must be so proud of raising a perfect moron…My dad used to say “Lorenzo, be careful this is a dog eat dog world” That is so true…They don’t care here in the United States! Its all about taking your money, anyway possible, anyway they can…Why should we care about what happens around the world. As it is now Americans are used and abused because we allow it to happen. The Occupy protesters are doing the right thing…Its all about the GREED….And the Bastards play it down, like the protesters are just nuisance.…Think about this! I mean really, really think! Say this out loud!…..FOUR DOLLARS a gallon for gas for your car. That is the biggest rip-off and scam in the world. All the while, that fool of a President just looks the other way…….I don’t know who in God’s name can go on paying for that, plus food, rent or house payments and heat. Just like a sheep going to slaughter…That’s the only way I can describe it! It is impossible, it will never get better…When we stand up for our rights we are told by the corrupt Politian’s and Lawyers and believe me, most of them are corrupt, to be nice and pay…Well, I promise you… I am not fooled by anything that is going on! Am I skeptical? You bet I am! Of everything…The crooks cannot fool me…I feel sad but I will and it will be my pleasure to let go so I don’t feel bad and look the other way…
I realize I am using the word Bastard a lot lately and I apologize for that…
Hey, I’m not trying impress anybody. Well, only just a little bit…I‘m just trying to take my friend out to dinner. During the Columbus day holiday that young girlfriend I talked in a past post came to my house for the long weekend…I decided to take her to my favorite restaurant in Westbrook Connecticut at Westbrook Lobster. In a past post I mentioned that this was a great place and I always order the Sea Scallops. Well guess what? I did order the Scallops….They had no Sea Scallops…I had to order something else. Needless to say I was disappointed…OK, we were done eating so I thought I would order some decaf coffee…Would you believe? No Decaf coffee…I can’t believe all that happened…I was sort of upset because my favorite restaurant didn’t have what I wanted, I mean can you blame me?…. The service was terrible because there were only three waitresses for the whole place and it was filled to capacity. Normally I wouldn’t complain about that but c’mon… It will be a while before I go back there…Well, after a long moon lit walk on the beach we finally got home and went to bed…I will say the rest of the evening went very well. If you know what I mean. We had what I call, “You only live once sex“…Give me a break, I had to say that…The next morning we went to breakfast at the Yankee Clipper restaurant near my house in Niantic. Well, I’m not happy about that either. Lousy service and only two sausages instead of three with my eggs…I know I’m complaining again but these days with the prices we are paying for things I expect and should get the best food and service… The only good part of the weekend was her. I have some great memories of her visit…
I realize I haven’t been posting lately…Its because I haven’t feeling well. Its nothing physical. Well, almost nothing, I did pull a muscle in my right arm…I am no used to all that aggravation and pain…Mostly I just haven’t been myself. Its hard to explain. It’s a cross between, feeling sorry for myself, anger and not giving a rats ass about much of anything. Its about control and wanting to fix the world…I had to stop watching TV news and focus on just NFL football and movies on the commercial free internet…I noticed that during the hurricane when we lost power a while ago. I did miss the news as far as the weather goes but now I think it’s the craziness of our society and people that is bothering me the most. No comment on that…I do allow myself three posts or less per day on Google Blogger http://tyler306.blogspot.com/ but that is mostly about corruption…I won’t allow myself to delve into other things….In other personal news…I found myself in the position of dating a much younger woman….I know what you are thinking but I know what I am doing, so far…I’m talking “Much younger” like, “really she is too young for you Lar”, young. If you know what I mean…No, don’t ask….All and all, it’s the world that is bothering me the most…Please believe me, it was never like it is these days.. They try to convince you this is good but its not…Its really, really bad out there! ….Its, I wasn’t brought up this way, bad….…I feel sad for all the people that will suffer because of the decisions being made…The young kids and not so young kids of today will never know what life is really all about….
Savages
On this protesting around the country and around the world ….Its clear to me that the people are upset and angry. Yet, its business as usual. Its like they are saying, “I wish these fools would stop so we could go on stealing as usual” The news, NBC, CBS, ABC should be on the scene with hourly reports like in Libya and Egypt. Its like they just don’t care! I guess they need more violence. Let bullets start flying. I’ll bet it would be more than a just “Matter of fact” thing then….Who owns the park in New York?…How do you get to own a City park? Who do you pay to get a City park? What kind of rules do you have to bend to own a park? That’s strange and it doesn‘t sound good at all? Needless to say I don‘t trust any of those Bastards… Worried about the health of the protesters? C’mon, city officials you can do better than that…Ban sleeping bags? Hey, Mayor who thought of that? You are beginning to look like a loser… I know what you can do if you are worried about the Health of the protesters. Open the men’s room and ladies rooms at the Wall street offices and City hall…
I don’t know what to say? We are surrounded by villains. Everywhere we go we don’t know if we are going to make it home…I know its always been like this but now its worse than I have ever seen it.....Its not me....Its just not safe out there.
The societies are divided now. Its like we are living life in this order….The rich and poor…The rich who seem like they are totally oblivious to your problems and drive around in their big cars and the poor who barely scrape along on with a junky car a menial job and welfare or no job at all. Its like there is no middle class. The rich who fly around in their corporate jets and the poor, if they lucky enough to get a loan have enough money to be almost stripped searched before they get on a expensive crowded passenger jet. In a sense there are no slaves but think about it…The rich who are catered to and waited on and the people who do it. No, they are not called “Slaves” but think about it?
Is it me? Am I the only one that finds the new television season distasteful and unpleasant because of profanity and the use of words that are, to say the least clinical and not the least bit funny. I don’t think using the words Penus or Vagina is funny. What is going on? Is this today’s morality? Is it shock value. Is it to provoke children into having sex? What is the reasoning behind this stupidity? Is it to get viewers to watch television so they can watch commercials? Is this the way people talk these days? Hey dude! My Penus is sore from having sex with your girlfriend….Huh,…Sweetie, I went to the doctor and he said the rash around my Vagina was because of your boyfriend. Did he give you a rash? Is that supposed to be funny? I can’t imagine my daughter asking me, Daddy what’s a penus? Those are clinical words. No one really says that…I notice the profanity (swearing for those who don’t know what profanity is) has increased also. I think swearing on television is like swearing in mixed company. Most of those swear words are not funny or in the least bit descriptive. I knew a F-100 pilot who uttered the words, “Ah Shit” just before he ejected from his aircraft at 15,000 feet. Now that’s descriptive. Only certain kinds of people swear. The lower class or people that were brought up poor talk like that. The kids that have one parent have a tendency to talk like that. People with underlying anger talk like that. People with minimal education talk like that. Using inappropriate language gives people around you the impression that you are not too bright. Or as I like to say, not the brightest bulb on the tree. Try going for a day not using profanity. Set a good example for your kids, they learn by example. They are a reflection of you. How many times have you seen a kid behaving badly and wonder where his parents were or who they are?….C’mon tell the truth…
A while ago, I moved to the shoreline community of Niantic Connecticut after living in Windsor Locks most of my life. I made this move for many reasons but mainly because of the negative attitudes in Windsor Locks. Don’t get me wrong, I realize things take time to change but no one there is doing anything but talking….There was nothing to keep me there. All I heard was excuses and nonsense. Years ago I grew up on Main street and Grove street, later moving to So. Center street where I lived most of my life. I actually watched them tear down Main Street and the Rialto Theater with the wrecking ball. Marie talks about the trucks with their engines running, using the parking lot at Dexter plaza as a truck stop. This is true. They also parked next to the old railroad station spewing their poisonous diesel fumes during the long winter nights. I know this because I lived across the street. However, the most important reason I moved was not only the trucks but to get away from the loud obnoxious horns and roaring trains that went through town. I remember the hissing steam engines and cattle cars. The flat bed cars carrying Army tanks and bombs as they parked at the old freight depot. They were not as loud. The dumpy railroad station is another matter. The Historical society, whatever historical society that is? Reminder, Main street is gone, there is no history! Nothing has been preserved except the Memorial Hall. They have been collecting money for years and nothing has been done…I suggest, take a picture of that smelly old place, put up a plaque with a few dates on it like they did to the railroad station in Simsbury and tear it down….Believe me no one cares. Tear down those firetrap factories that have been vacant for years across that rancid canal and be done with it. The smell from those places is horrible. Someone make a decision! It seems like a lot of people are talking about this stuff but no one except Marie cares enough to do anything about it………
The Giants play the Arizona Cardinals Sunday…
Its my birthday today…..Actually it’s the day I add to my age because the truth is I am getting older…Its getting tough now to hide my age…I have been lying about my age since the days of Jack Benny. He was 39 till the day he died. Depending on the situation I did that for years. If that is any indication its been a few years for me also. Here is an example. The drinking age was 21 in Connecticut…They were carding me until I was 30. All my life I have blessed by looking younger. Now I have to increase that age a few years to sort of look like the age I really am….People will ask me how old I am and when I tell them they don’t believe me….Hell, I don’t believe It…. I hear things like, age is only a number. Age is how old or young you feel…My Advice is think young and do the usual things like exercise and diet…But the most important thing is a positive attitude. Never ever be afraid of rejection and smile whether you mean it or not…
Yes, this is another installment of where are they now?
1. Debbie Harry…..Blondie the singer…
2. Monica Lewinski ….White stains on dress..
3. Stewart Parnell…Peanut executive who was responsible for killing people by sending poison peanuts for distribution around the country. He knew they were bad..
Three words….Doctors appointment today. I’m healthy. At least I think so. That’s not the problem…it’s the pre-appointment that bothers me…The few days leading up the actual day….I start thinking of all my aches and pains and whether I should be a whiner and tell him every detail. Or Not. This happens every six months or so. There is nothing wrong with me. So I think I will play it ear….Maybe I’ll fake it till I make it…Maybe its just me…
I watched a few new, old TV shows, on the internet of coarse. (no commercials) Lets start with “Two and half men“…I know this is only episode one and If this is any indication, I will say it won’t last long. Its stupid and not funny. “Big Bang Theory” Its fair, its half funny, half not. It went from a little sexual innuendo to not funny sexual innuendo. “The Office”? Mr. Spader is smart here. He is literally sitting back waiting to fit in letting the other cast members do the work…His masterful sarcastic attitude fit right in to this group of funny people. Its predicable…”Prime Suspect” I can only say Maria is my kind of girl…The cast does over act but its passable…“Glee” I lasted until that kid got the soda thrown in his face then I shut it off...From what I seen its still has bullies and ignorant teachers. Talent is good, show is setting a bad example. Its boring…”How I met your mother” starts by explaining to young kids how people met. I assume the narrator left out all the sex stuff when he talked to those kids. None of the sex material is funny. “Law and order SVU” is the same. I assume the crimes will get more gruesome to entice these kinds of people to watch…“Criminal minds“…Guess what? They brought back the brunette. I like her. Its Gruesome and you know this show will get worse. “Parenthood” Sorry here…It could be good but what I’m seeing is a lot of people talking over each other. Its predictable and boring. “NCIS” They are keeping it more or less like it is. I like Tony and Ziva…….“Unforgettable” is worth the watch…I like the way she sets up the crime and solves the puzzle…. “New Girl” She is a talented young lady. I‘ll watch it again if they keep the not funny sex stuff toned down. “Dexter, Bluebloods and Nikita” I’ll get to sooner or later…
A history of one’s own writing life, written daily. I did not pick this topic…
Every 20 or 30 years this country goes through a change. It’s like a change of life. It is a huge change of life for some who don’t realize what is going on. The change we are going through now been going on for the past few years and there are were no warning signs. It just sneaks up on you. This time though, it’s a tough one…Winter is just around the corner again and the fuel prices are getting higher. It seems like everyone is running around in fast motion pushing and pushing and shoving the other guy. Its like they are trying to get first in line for something. We are running out of jobs except for the menial ones and there are, lets face it, just too many people. We cannot take care of them all. There is space left in this country but everyone is in one place trying to find that elusive gold in the streets. This time around, it’s going to take a little longer to get through this…We are up against tough opponents. Greed, Inflation, Addiction and War. Especially the greed brought on by fear which brings on addiction. Corruption is out of control and personally I really don’t think we can make it through this. Oh, a few of us will make it but as always there will be many causalities. The Government can try to create jobs but that will only last for so long. What we need is long term employment. Is there such a thing these days? How about Health benefits? How about a sense of normalcy? To be able to go to work each day without fear. To go there with the confidence knowing you are needed and respected. We need careers, the kind that people enjoy going to each day. The kind we went to school for. We need more honest people these days and there are a very few out there….I believe only the honest people will come to the surface…
Why do we always have to buy stuff? Did you notice that most jobs today are someone to selling something to someone? A few years ago that was called being a salesperson. Now it seems we have a country full of sales people. A sales person a few years ago was someone who had that job part time while waiting to get a real job. Like….“Hey Dude, where do you work?” “Gas station man, till I go back to School! “Cool, good luck Dude.” Did you notice that today everybody is in a rush to go and sell someone something. I think about that when I am on the highway doing 70 MPH and they pass me out at 80 or 90 MPH…The other day I was talking to a girl working in a fast food restaurant and she when she took my order, smiled and said to me, “for here or to go?” I said, to go. I’m going to the beach and eat while the weather is still nice. Wanna come with me? She replied, “Omg, I wish I could but my boss said if I take a day off for me not to come back…I’ve been working here for two years and I only called out once. I don’t know what’s wrong with him“…I said, Baby, this is fast food not IBM or Microsoft, do you really give a shit? When I left she was laughing hysterically…..Another thing is, people don’t look like they enjoy what they are doing. Its like they are grouchy, like they are saying I don’t get paid to smile…I went to the mall the other day and its like sales people descend on you like vultures. “Welcome to the store“…Thanks.. “Can I help you sir?” No….” Are you looking for something special?”… No. I’m almost afraid to ask a question. You can tell it’s a fake nice and its not real…You can tell the good actors from the bad actors…That staff meeting they had that morning to remind them to be nice and make money shines right through the fakeness. Towards the end of the day they lose their enthusam. I notice that the Deli guy that slices the meat looks like a linebacker or a laid off plant worker…Women who should be retired are cashiers in grocery stores. I know one that is in her 80s and one in their 70s…Its so sad to see this. I see a lot of young people just out of high school stocking shelves with the hundreds of thousands of products. What kind of future is in store for these kids. Its truly unbelievable. There are hundreds of Landscapers driving all over the place with their little trailers and lawn mowers…OK, I know but are these jobs or just something to do until the right job comes along?
“Just Ask God or Not”
Warning! …..This is about God and the Church, so if you are offended when someone writes about this topic, please stop here. To proceed any further might cause peace and happiness and if you are content in your misery and resentment I don’t want to say anything that will spoil it for you….
Every once and a while I get the urge to visit a Church. It’s usually when something good happens and I want to thank God personally, I make a personal appearance. I accept it when bad things happen because its usually my fault and it involves a bad decision. When those bad things happen I don’t blame God but that is a whole other story….I was brought up a Catholic. I even went to a Catholic school…… Well, a while ago I asked my God for something. You could say I prayed for it…I don’t usually do that unless its something nice for someone else. This time I asked for something for myself. It was for something impossible and I would have never thought in a million years that it would happen…Honestly there was no chance, not even a one in a million chance for this to happen to me…I have to be very careful what I ask for so I don‘t ask for much. Of coarse this depends what point of view you have…A while ago at weak moment I asked for something that can only be described as beautiful and it was nothing short of a miracle when it happened…But that is not what this is about. This is about when I got that urge to visit a Church to say thank you and to try to figure out why this wonderful thing would happen to me. I decided to stop in a Church to see if maybe I could figure out why this happened? I should have known better…I happened to be in Norwich Connecticut the other day when I decided to stop in the Sacred Heart Church on Merchants Ave.….I parked the car, got out and walked across the lawn only to find all the doors locked. I even checked the side doors.…My first emotion was disappointment ….Why weren’t the doors unlocked so I could go in and meditate? Here I am standing outside and I am feeling locked out. This is not one of those things where you just go to another Church. This was special….I was upset for about an hour, until I thought about it for a while…I thought…Why should I ask God why this happened? Who am I to ask why? A prayer is a prayer even if you only think about it. Let it happen without asking why! Enjoy it while you can. I will use each moment of the gift that God has given me. I will be saying thank you for a long time to come…
The other day as I was waiting for the light to change…..I glanced to my right and seen a Crow at the feet of a lady who was raking her lawn… That’s right a Crow. He was tapping at the rake with his beak and with his little feet were swishing the twigs and grass clippings around on the ground…I couldn’t resist. I pulled into her street and stopped. I asked the lady if that was a Crow? Silly question but at that moment I was astonished that the crow was helping her rake the lawn…Yes, she replied saying that her daughter saved the Crow when he was a baby and every once and a while, no kidding here, “Comes back to help around the yard“..…I told her that I thought that was beautiful, I couldn’t think of anything else to say and I really thought it was beautiful..…Meanwhile I was reaching for my camera which fell behind the seat…She said her, “daughter nursed and fed the Crow when it was a baby after the Mother Crow disappeared leaving it on the ground“…It was too late for the camera now so I muttered “Beautiful” again and pulled over more to side of the road to watch….The lady said, “Oh, he can be a pain sometimes but I don‘t mind“…Wow, I thought, I wish I had a friendly Crow that would help me sometimes…She continued raking, the Crow helping as I watched….She stooped and picked up the grass, twigs and debris, put in in a basket, picking up the basket…She turned to me and said, “goodbye’ and walked the 50 feet to her garage and went in.…Meanwhile, the Crow walked behind her towards the house and when she went in he started flying in circles, cawing like he was saying, I’ll be back later” He flew around the yard for a few seconds and left, disappearing into the woods…..I sat there for a minute, amazed thinking, now that is Gratitude……
Had a good time last time …The award ceremony went well and my friend was there for a congratulation hug and that alone made it all worth while. Later we went out for dinner at Ruby Tuesday‘s…I was able to bring home some leftovers. I like when that happens. After we went for a late walk in the dark around the High School. That was the best part of the whole night…Its wonderful to feel like a kid again. This morning its breakfast with friends then to the store for some needed stuff…Wow, I have a new energy….
The topic today is going up to my old hometown to see my girl friend. That’s what she is, a good friend who just happens to be a woman.. First, I’m going to a meeting with some friends and get an award…This award is because I have done something successfully for many years…She said she would try to be there for me when I get this award. That would be really nice…Later I think we will go out for dinner and some much needed conversation…See and you all thought I was a just a complainer… We all have a good side. A side we are proud of…A side that we don’t talk about much…
Today its breakfast with friends and I can’t wait for that. I don’t know how long I can keep up writing about someone else’s ideas. Some of her topics are interesting but others I know nothing about. I think I am supposed do research and I’ve done that but now I’m just to lazy. If I start skipping days it will become a habit. Oh well. The whole idea is so I won’t be so angry and I think its working. It just takes time. What I stopped doing also is Tweeting so much negative stuff. I figure if I don’t read it about I won’t have so much to think about. I have to be careful you can get caught up in that. There are a lot of not so nice people out there. Sometimes they do things to get on TV and I truly believe that. Then something happens and they get arrested or hurt or they get killed. I don’t think there is anyone that cruel or stupid…. I have Google alerts and I changed some settings to nice things…Boring but nice things.. Later guys, I’m late. Be careful out there. Don’t do something I can Tweet about…I don’t believe I just said that…
Today’s topic is love…Sometimes I wonder what that emotion really is. What are “Mixed Emotions?“ What is the difference between Love for family or love for friends? Is that Love for a mate really love or is it lust? I realize today that I can say I love you to a person and mean it but not really like the person. Its hard to explain so I won’t even try. I will say it has to do with humility, regret, resentment and being sorry. So far I’ve learned that are many kinds of love. The peculiar kind of love I want to write about very briefly is for someone who hurt me in the past. Can I let the past go because of time and because I’ve grown and learned a few lessons? This kind of love is the love you feel when you “Half love” someone, if you can do such a thing. Its just a little stronger than like but hot quite as much as really like. Its in between very few expectations and It doesn’t matter. As long as I don’t set myself up for hurt. I realize I am treading in a very dangerous place. I always say I would never walk in a Mine field. Well, maybe if I’m really careful just this once.
Giants will beat the Redskins in Washington by 2 touchdowns…
Today’s topic is writing ideas, which is exactly my problem. I have plenty of ideas but if I write about it I get angry and start thinking negative. So now I will try to go in the opposite direction…Flooding, that seems to be a huge problem these days.….I thought maybe if I share my experience with everyone they won’t end up living in a flood plain. I mean it is a writing idea…No, OK well, I could write about politics but then I would get upset. Wait, Politics…That’s an Idea…No, I guess not…I mean its not like I can’t think of anything, its my anger at what I know is going on in Washington.…I’m not alone in the way I feel. The other day I heard someone say about this 9/11 stuff, “ It will never go back to the way it was”. Enough said. OK, a good topic would be football season which starts tomorrow. I know this will calm me down. The feeling of competition and winning. I don’t know, topics are easy to think about but hard to find…Wait I got it! Corruption. I had an idea the other day….Do you think that if all the corrupt politicians in Washington returned all the money they stole or got under the table in the form of bribes and donations while negotiating “deals” we could balance the American budget. Budget? Probably not but it would certainty help. Budget. Another word you don’t hear anymore. It joins the ranks of morals, conscience and respect. There! I’m done. See, I said all that without getting angry….Well, almost.
Today’s topic is about finances. The dictionary describes this as control of money, the business or art of managing the monetary resources of an organization, country or person. Wow, I could do something with that….I could really be angry and show someone how save or spend but this is about me… Lately with me, its using what I have been taught all my life. Lets start with credit. In these times of economic disaster I never charge anything. I buy very few luxury’s if any. I’m fortunate enough to be able to buy what I want. I just don’t like to overpay for anything. I won’t give them an extra nickel if I don’t have to. I only buy things on sale with a coupon. Especially food. The rule for me is if I don’t have the money I’ll wait till I have it…I save money for things…I put a few dollars away for emergencies. Like a new computer or TV just in case I need one. I save for car maintenance. Oil changes every 3000 miles or if something breaks. The Mustang is a high maintenance car so its important to have it checked out once a year whether it needs it or not. Like rotate the tires or front end work. You don’t want know what I paid for a break job for that car. At the speeds on the highways these days you had better do something. The insurance for that car is not cheap either so I have to save for that. I save just in case Willie gets sick. Vet bills are expensive. His meds alone cost $25 dollars a month. I can’t figure out how to get the Government to pay for that. Maybe if I write to the “Cat Bite Czar” he will help me…I pay bills as soon as I get them, never waiting till their due. The rent is paid a few days before the first of the month…When I have moved in the past I always use the landlord or the building manager as a reference. I could travel anywhere in the world if I want but I don’t want to deal with all this terrorist nonsense. I don’t want to give the airlines any extra money. When I worked at the airport I used to fly for free and everybody knew my name. I save my change for the laundry and never wash unless I have a full load. When I gas the Mustang I never put more than $20 dollars in the tank…I will not carry around all that gas. Its heavy. Leave in the ground at the gas station. I do a lot of things to economize and cut back. I just absolutely refuse to give them anything if I don’t have to. Most of this for me is common sense and the end result is I have money in my pocket at payday…
Today’s topic is food…There are three restaurants I go to here on the Connecticut shoreline. Of coarse my goal is to eat lightly, get the most for my money and never stuff myself with high calorie food. So it wasn’t easy to find one. For me these days its not the amount of food you get its the quality of the food. Like I said I live at the shoreline so we have our fair share of seafood restaurants. For the best dinner in the universe my favorite place is in Westbrook Conn. Its your classic, lets go out to dinner restaurant. The sea scallops are the best. I have never had better seafood. And that is saying something. The portions are large so I always look forward to taking some home for dinner the next day…In Niantic, my home town, for the greatest lunch it’s a family style deli that serves the greatest half sandwiches and Lobster Bisque on this planet. I sit outside and watch the ocean while having lunch. The service is great and the girl that takes my order remembers my name…Kind of makes me feel like I belong…The third and last place is a local fast food restaurant …I know, Fast food? I don’t do this often but its good. Remember its what you order not how much. In these places I have a fresh salad and a small order of Chicken. I cut up the chicken and make a tossed Caesar salad and it works…That’s it…Tomorrows topic is finances…

I have been having problems writing lately. It always comes out like I’m angry. Its like there is so much going on that I don’t know where to begin…The trouble is what is happening in this country and in the world is bothering me too much. I am getting upset. Plus, the other day I tried to give advice to someone and was misunderstood and was called names.. At first I was angry but it didn’t take long for that anger to turn into pity….Maybe I was wrong but I did sense an underlying anger in the name caller. Its OK if that person vented on me. I feel sorry for her, its sad….I’m just glad I don’t carry around that kind of hate. This is why I’m doing what I’m doing…..The other day one of the sites that send me writing ideas, sent me, “Bernadette Mayer’s list of Journal Ideas“…..I think I’m going to try it. Each day and I will try to go in order. I will write about what she suggests, without being negative. Starting with dreams.
Lately I have been talking on the phone to a very beautiful much younger past girlfriend of mine…She calls me every day and we talk about her problems, my problems and other things…Well, last weekend she was supposed visit and stay at my house for a few days. One thing led to another and she didn’t come down. I said something and later I felt horrible. I thought about my stupidity all day Monday and texted an apology late that night before I went to bed. I was thinking she would never call me again and I got sick about that. As a result I had a dream Monday night. It was the kind of dream that I don’t remember much about but it wasn’t bad. Not a nightmare, In the dream it was just a very foggy day, like warm and smoky but I could see through the fog…There she was sitting on a rock near the ocean looking at me…She was smiling that beautiful smile of hers…I knew then she was OK…She called the day and the first thing I did was apologize…After we hung up I cried…

It’s a another first for me…After 15 years on the internet and 3 years on Live journal with 1442 journal entry’s. I think I have labeled and insulted Internet style…. I have been called a Troll. That’s right a Troll.. I thought that was something from Ireland and it is but in 2011 it’s an internet insult…I looked it up on Wiki. The link is at the bottom of the page….This is what I did to be called a Troll. Without being explicit I gave advice on a secrets site on Live Journal to a young woman ( not the one who called me a Troll ) about unusual sexual activity with 2 gay men together…. I said to be careful because of STD’s and other emotional consequences. Like those OMG what did I do after thoughts. I was jumped on by someone on Live Journal called Lily telling me that I was insulting the gays. I apologized to her explaining that it was not my intention at all. I suggested that maybe she had issues and she should not be so threatening and oppositional. My answer to Lily is at the bottom of this page. It turns out Lily is a Bi-sexual, she says so on her profile. Not that there is anything wrong with that. That could be the reason Lily doesn‘t thinks I don’t understand. I have a feeling she‘s been picked on in the past. Lily some of my best friends are gay or Bi. I know about the issues. But I digress…..That’s when it happened! I was cast into Trolldom. Hey, it doesn’t feel so bad being a Troll. At least I didn’t resort to name calling being labeled. I know, don’t say it, I have been guilty of that too. Well my advice being a senior troll to all you younger trolls.…It takes a Troll to know a Troll……Right Lily?

No Lily, I never meant any of those things. I apologize if you took it that way. Are you trying to insult me because I said be careful and to think before getting involved in this kind sex. Do you jump in bed with strangers or people you barely know on a whim or fantasy? Are the cameras running when you do this? Are you promiscuous? The question is why are you being threatening and oppositional? Do you have guilty conscience? Did something happen?
If I knew just some of what I know now when I was a young man I would have become a Rock Star…Wait, don’t say anything yet or “Jump to conclusions.” <<< Dad used to say that last part… I did play the electric guitar for a while when I was in my late teens and early 20s. I started to get good until I had finger problems. I had and still have Raynauds Disease, a circulatory problem and because of ulcerated finger tips I had to stop playing. Two major operations, two months in the hospital and a year later my disease was under control but I couldn’t play anymore. My finger tips were tender. The calluses were gone. I was afraid if I did, the finger problem would come back and I didn’t want to go through all that hospital stuff again or risk losing a finger or two…I always enjoy thinking that if I threw caution to the wind, made different decisions and worked really hard at overcoming the finger problems I could have been a success at playing with a band. I did have two friends who were singer musicians and they had hit records. If I only put myself in the right place with these guys at the right time and really had the guts to pursue this line of work. I mean it would have been a job after all. I think and I am almost sure I could have played for a major Rock Band. Today when I hear the lead guitar for Guns N’ Roses, Journey, The Stones or of the any big name groups. I get goose bumps. I know the cords and beat, the strumming technique and the timing. I can feel the energy of the crowd. I can actually feel myself playing lead or back up guitar with the crowd roaring…Its like I’m there…. Its an unbelievable feeling… I could cry when I think of what I could have done if I stayed healthy…..
Its my understanding she has to answer questions but of coarse the lawyers will find a way for her not to...If they catch in a lie its back to jail...I'm sure Jose will help her. The question is does this master manipulator know how to tell the truth..
Isn't that always the way...Good folks out there suffering and the Tobacco dealers aka (drug dealers) spreading their poison and addiction for the almighty dollar. Good luck Bobby...One day at a time you can do it. I did...Screw those bastards...
After world war two they set up a Grumman Hellcat Fighter plane outside the Memorial Hall in Windsor Locks Conn. If you are standing near the road looking at the building it was on the left side. I remember my Dad giving me a boost and letting me climb up the wings and fuselage and sitting in the Cockpit. They let you do that in those days. Years later the town donated it to the Air Museum at Bradley International Airport. The rumor was and I’m not kidding about this, was factory owner C.H. Dexter’s son flew it when he was in the Navy from an Aircraft carrier in World War II. The rumor was he had it sent there after the war. When I was in the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts and we marched in the town parade and ended all the Memorial day parades there. The same when I was in the Army National Guard. I remember having a few Boy scout meetings in that beautiful building also. That was in the late forty's, early Fifties. A couple of years ago while riding my bike around the building and through the back parking lot. I found the keys to building on the pavement in the back. To make sure I tried the keys in the front door and they worked. Later that day I returned them to the Police station...I glad I found them and not some kid….Keep up the good work and don‘t let anybody forget why its there…I have wonderful memories and had a great childhood in Windsor Locks….
I was listening to NPR this morning on the way to the bike trail. Someone that was being interviewed, I did not catch the name…I just turned up the radio in the Mustang and was too busy trying to stay alive on Route 95 here in Connecticut, said that this so-called deadline date was something the “Treasure Department” said just to have a date to get things done…He said there is plenty of money and not to worry. The country is not going to go bankrupt and everyone will be paid as usual…I wasn’t born yesterday and knowing our leaders are a bunch of liars I choose to believe this is what is going to happen…I hope the discussion, lies and fighting between our insensitive greedy leaders goes on beyond the date just to see what a bunch of fools we have in Washington…Including our, not really mine but your president…. I’m glad he is not my responsibility That’s for sure.. They are like a bunch of teenagers…Its embarrassing…..
This is a picture of my Uncle Lorenzo Ferrari
He was born in 1910 and he died in a drowning
accident in the Canal Basin in Windsor Locks Connecticut
in 1923. He was 13 years old. He was swimming with some of his friends
when he disappeared from sight in the murky water.
Years later I questioned one of these friends and
he said they searched franticly to find him but to no avail.
Lorenzo’s parents, my Grandparents had this picture
made in memory of his short life. He left 3 brothers and one sister. Joseph,
Louis, Santino and Mary. Joseph was my father. Lorenzo is buried in Saint Mary’s
cemetery in Windsor Locks Connecticut. My parents named me after
Lorenzo calling me Lawrence. I am proud to be named after him….
I woke up at 4 AM to see the light on my alarm clock blinking….The power was on…We were without power for about 68 hours. Thank you very much to the hard working guys that repair the wires after the storms like we had. I got up at about 8 AM and turned on the TV and immediately remembered why I don’t watch TV so I muted it….They are running continuous commercials. Some of which are actually starting before the they finish with the one that’s on. I thought no one has any money or jobs? It looks like the only people that are working are the people selling things to people that are selling things to people….I didn’t buy anything extra for the storm so I have a little extra money to buy a special treat for me and Willie today… I did check the gas station after my walk on the beach late yesterday afternoon only to find they had no gas at the pump I stopped at…I left because I didn’t really need gas that bad. I notice there are the usual gas price gougers and swindlers. I don’t know how they sleep at night with all that money stuffed in their pillows…The saddest thing of this day so far is the picture of the Navy Seal’s dog sleeping near his coffin at his funeral….Have a good one guys and be careful not to step on any of those wires laying all over the place…
“48 Hours and Counting”
…I think it was November 1965 when the power in the Northeastern United States went out…This reminds me of that time. Its now been 48 hours since the Hurricane knocked the power out here in this part of Connecticut. There is an eerie silence mixed with the occasional sound of an emergency generator. I took a ride yesterday and I did find a store open to pick up a few things. So far I haven’t spent any extra money on this storm. I’m just getting things I normally would. Erin, all Dunkin Donuts coffee shops were closed and I didn’t see any gas stations open. If you have less than a quarter of a tank of gas in your car, I would suggest staying home. Driving around looking for a gas station wouldn’t be prudent. You might run out of gas trying to find one. There are no stop lights so slowing down at each intersection is mandatory. There are a lot of broken branches everywhere and I seen a few trees laying across the high voltage wires. Those are the 3 wires on the top of the pole. That was on the main road and there were trees down along the side of route 95. People were starting to wander around assessing the damage…The storm was worse than I thought. I wasn’t totally wrong but I have see worse. Today I’m going downtown to the drug store and to check things out. I shouldn’t be gone that long….
ll no power here in the shoreline…The last time I lived here it was the same….Its been close to 24 hours without power and counting…Surprisingly it doesn’t bother me that much…I feel bad for the people that don’t know how to handle this kind of stuff and actually get angry. Being an Electrician I remember in the past when people were upset with me for being late. Its very stressful for some…This morning I am out of here. The sky is a crisp blue and I’m heading to breakfast with friends. After, I’ve got to stop at the store, if there is a store for a few things. I packed a lunch just in case all the stores blew away. I hope there is enough warm water in the hot water heater for a shower. OMG how inconvenient is that?
The hurricane as I see from here was a dud….Here in Niantic Connecticut we had…Let me start with yesterday morning. It was very cloudy and muggy like someone said “Florida humid“. The air was almost not breathable and I could smell something foul..…In the late afternoon it started to rain. Lightly at first then on and off heavy till late…I would call it a very boring day. If I didn’t know a hurricane was emanate, it was just another rainy summer day.…When I went to bed around midnight I looked out and it had started to rain really hard with a light wind. I slept all night and didn’t hear anything. I was surprised wake up and see the power on…Later that morning the power went off. I thought why, because the wind wasn’t blowing that hard…Although I heard a tree branch snap and crack in the woods behind my house…It was nothing visible though…It was like CL&P said, “oops we forgot to shut of the power off, might as well do it now” and so they did. My first impression when the power goes out is how quiet it is. As I sit here looking out the window this afternoon I know the wind is blowing because I can hear it in the trees. I wish they would turn the power on but we will survive OK without it because where there a will there is a way…I hope everyone is OK….Now here at this moment, its cloudy and windy with no rain and its getting cooler…
I was sitting here thinking as I am waiting for the hurricane wind to start blowing here on the Connecticut shore line…I’m sad because I can’t go the birthday party I was I invited to. That’s a bummer…A few years ago I would have thrown caution to the wind and took my chances with the Mustang. Today, no thank you.. Better safe than sorry, there are too many people out there that are, to put it bluntly “Nuts”. I have never seen anything like it. This Hurricane has almost everyone around here buying everything off the store shelves and running around in circles like rats in a cage… My advice to normal people is, stay out of the way….Its scary to watch these crazed people. You can see the fear and trepidation they feel as they go about pushing and shoving their fellow humans out of the way…In some cases literarily but you know what I mean. I think it’s the TV news that scares them…Prepare, yes but don’t hurt your neighbors while doing it…Slow down, you can’t control what is going to happen or for that matter, what is not going to happen….
I move to the Connecticut shoreline and guess what? According to the weather news I’m sitting here a target of this huge storm. I went to the beach yesterday. The seas were rough and no one was there but I did find some great sea glass. There were just a few of us there like me. We belong to a secret society….The summer is ending for a lot of people, thank God…..Over heard at the local campground…“I don’t know what to do? Stay of leave?” ….Dude Duh…..Also I notice boat owners heading inland with their boats. I guess they are smarter than campers…. Its interesting, I was living here for Storm Bob, the last storm to hit Connecticut… I remember the wind…Wow…..I hope this one frizzles out before it gets here…Good luck everybody…
We are being over informationized < (new word) or bombarded with useless knowledge from everywhere. Knowledge that we will never use or even think about. We are being flooded with fast talking hypestirs < (another new word) from all over the world trying to trick us, convince us, sell to us or play to our sympathy’s for donations. They will even start rumors that will make us want to give, buy or confuse us enough so they can take our money…Each day, not me but you will be hum drummed into listening to countless commercials trying to convince you buy something you don’t need. From cell phones with high monthly payments to computers, lottery tickets and clothes. Its been going on for years. Advertising agencies thrive on the money you spend on things you really don‘t need or want. They will do literally anything to make you think you want and need it. They use every dirty trick to convince you to look prettier, feel better, be stronger, slimmer, healthier and to be good to yourself. They want you to spend that last nickel and max out your credit cards. All they want is your last dollar for their bottom line…Keep this in mind before you spend anything. These days and I don’t care who you are, you could lose your job tomorrow. Those charges you have on those credit cards will not go away. Interest will accumulate each day. Job or not you still have to pay for that. Rent, car or house payments still have to be paid…No matter what they say gas is still $4 dollars a gallon with winter just around the corner with that really high heating bill. The constant phone calls, letters from creditors and lawyers will begin. They will take the car away. The police will come to evict you. The only guarantee is, you will have thoughts of suicide….Save your money, don’t buy anything unless you absolutely need it and above all if you don’t have the money to pay cash, don’t buy it…You will survive..
I would say the first Alien (1979) with a very young Sigourney Weaver. Yes, it was that long ago. There are a lot of good scenes in that movie but the one where the guy is sitting there eating and the little creature starts moving in his stomach then pops out through his skin… I’ll never forget that. The whole theater jumped and the people sitting and my right and left grabbed my arms and gasped…
I’d like to keep all my memories…The happy ones are like personal treasures that I look back on with pleasure. The bad memories fade away but they are mostly the mistakes I made getting the good ones…
Important Notice……..Reality shows are not real! They are all fake! Its all make-believe! The people on these shows are acting or trying to act just like in the movies. That’s right, NOT real, fake, make-believe. The people that are on these shows are “Not stars or celebrities” they are just like you and me only they have a camera on them recording the things they do. They do these things for money. Its because of this, they do crazy, sometimes stupid things. Its OK to watch them but don’t believe it. Normal people with morals, principles and values wouldn’t humiliate themselves or participate in these things. In a few years you won’t remember who these people are or what they did. There was a so-called reality show on a few years ago. I’ll bet you can’t think of the name of one person on that shoe except for the gay guy that went to prison for income tax evasion. When its all said and done they will have to get a real job just like you and me and these days good luck with that.
Mort Downey Jr. …Temped fate by smoking…Died of lung Cancer at 69
Last night I was reading my past Journals because of my silence now. The truth is I just don’t know what to say. Each day seems the same. I have a routine just like everyone else. I read my friends Journals and a lot of them don’t post anymore and even the ones that still post seemed bored. I lost a good friend because of my attitude. I call it a difference of opinion. I miss her and think about her. She was a Bear fan. Good luck this season Kathleen. I have written about where this country is going because it bothers me. Believe me, if things don’t change it will get worse. I have written about the weather but have accepted it because it can’t be changed. All TV is boring because its geared to certain types of people, all except pro football and even that is trending towards new rules that will change the game forever. ( I can’t believe I said trending, I hope I’m not turning into one of them.) The exhibition games have started thank God. I hope I’m not disappointed. Even the movies are boring. Don’t they make real movies with real actors anymore? My past journals in 2008 were for the most part, me answering those sometimes silly questions on the front page. I’m back to that now. I think it’s a cycle. I moved to the beach last year thinking that maybe I could find a little more something but the trouble is in the summer everyone comes here looking for the same thing. Now I end up looking for quiet places where there are no people. My Mom used to say, “ Lawrence you cant win”. I’m starting to believe her. The good news is I am up to level 69 in my DS Jewel Master Egypt game.
I don’t know what’s going on but in the past week I’ve heard someone say “life has an expiration date” three different times. Now, that’s weird. Is that a warning sign? What is going on with me?
My Mom was a wonderful cook and made the best meals but the most special to me was made by my Grandmother. Every Christmas the whole family would gather at her house for her home made Raviolis. It was a feast with chicken and potatoes and all the Christmas trimmings… I think of my Mom all the time but going to my Grandmothers was the best…...I think about it every Christmas. Its one of my most treasured memories..
The most hated person in America. I wonder who decided that...It must have been a poll of our most intelligent citizens in this country and around the world. The ones with the highest IQ’s. Can you imagine the brain power behind the creator of that poll? I know what you are thinking? WTF is this guy talking about…..No, I am not defending her. I’m saying let it go. She is taking up too much space in your mind. She is not worth all the publicity… Its got to stop. You know, what goes around will come around. Anyone who lives with those lies and that past, sooner or later can’t live with themselves. Her mind is a constant reminder of the death of her daughter…Above everything else, like it or not she is still a mother. You can’t take that away from her. Till the day she dies the death of her daughter will hunt her. It wasn’t too long ago OJ was at the top of that hate list. I guess he moved to second or third place now…He got his. He ended up in prison…When that happened I thought see, he is right where he supposed to be…I even wrote a goodbye OJ piece…Will I be able to write a Goodbye Casey piece…..Time will tell. Won’t it?
The OJ piece was Written on December 6, 2008

“Self righteous anger can be very enjoyable. In a perverse way we can actually take satisfaction from the fact many people annoy us, for it brings a comfortable feeling of superiority. Gossip barbed with anger, a polite form of murder by character assassination, has its satisfactions for us. We are not trying to help those we criticize. We are trying proclaim our righteousness.”…….William Wilson
I have been really good for the past few days about not writing about our so-called leaders because of the frustration I feel or the weather we are having because of environmental changes. However Now, I’m really angry! I can’t just sit here and not say anything! How could this happen? I realize my Military experience is not up to date but who was responsible for watching the perimeter (surrounding area) while the chopper was taking off or landing? They know very well that this aircraft is slow and hard to maneuver. Thirty one (31). Not 3, not 6, not 5 but 31 Special Forces and Navy Seals were Killed in that Chinook helicopter that was shot down by a shoulder fired RPG. This is a disgrace! I’d want a full investigation on how this could happen. Believe me! Heads would roll on this. The cowards that did this must be ecstatic and are celebrating this, “Piss hole in the snow” victory. Well, while they are at it, they ought to thank their Allah, Mohammad or whoever they thank because if I was in command there would be hell to pay for this. I mean real hell in the form of a bomb that would kill thousands. Do you think they can say Napalm or Carpet bombing in Arabic? It would kill not only terrorists but generations of terrorists, all the way back to the middle ages…I don’t know why we don’t eliminate the whole country? Its worthless. The most powerful Nation in the world is messing around with these monsters when we could make that whole country an afterthought. Why? Is someone going to say something bad about us….What’s the difference? They all hate us anyway. Lets give them something to hate us about! This hunt and pick nonsense is taking too much time and we are losing too many good young men…If the United States is going to do something, lets do right.
Kill them all? None of them are any good for anything. They are all a bunch worthless backward fools….
When I was a kid I was fascinated Batman and Robin. I had a collection of all the Comic books…The movie with Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson brought it to life for me…The TV show was silly and in my opinion for kids…
“Things people will remember you by in the future”
Or “What people will think about when they hear your name.”
Or things a publicist will say they can repair but really can’t.
O.J. Simpson…Isn’t he the double murderer that played Football? Did he ever find the killer?
Bill Clinton…“I didn’t inhale.” or “I didn’t have sex with that woman.”
Michael Jackson…Wasn’t he the Pedophile drug addict that was a good dancer?
Robert Blake…..Blake, Who? Was he the one found not guilty of killing his wife. Did they ever find out who did?
Casey Anthony…..Wasn’t she the one that killed her daughter?
Pamela Anderson…Wasn’t she the one with big boobs that did a porn movie on a boat?
Anthony Weiner…Who? Oh, that guy! Don’t need that visual…..
Tiger Woods…Who? Oh, he’s that black golfer guy who cheated on his hot blond wife….
Mary Kay Letourneau…Wasn’t she the cute teacher that had sex with that kid and married him when she got out of prison.
Plaxico Burress…Wasn’t he the football player that went jail after he shot himself in the leg?
Michael Vick…Wasn’t he the Dog Killer guy? I think he played football. I don’t know where…
Pee wee Herman aka Paul Reubens…..Wasn’t he the guy that talked funny that got arrested for playing in a porn movie theater a long time ago. (1991)
Rap singers….What is that?
Elvis…Wasn’t he a singer that died from taking too many pills.
Chaney Mason…Wasn’t he that lawyer guy that gave everyone the finger. I don’t know why?
Rod Blagovitch….Him? He was just another corrupt Illinois Governor…I think he tried to sell a senate seat to the highest bidder. He’s in prison isn’t he?
Roland Burris…Didn’t he buy a senate seat from a corrupt Governor? Didn’t last long in Washington, he came back to Illinois…Don’t know what happened to him…
Kate Gosselin….Who?
Arnold…You know, the Terminator guy. The one that married that rich lady….Wasn’t he having sex with his house keeper?
Paris Hilton… Didn’t she have a father that owned a hotel. She did a Porn movie…Arrested for drugs.
Lindsay Lohan…..Who? Wasn’t she an actress or something?
There are so many more that deserve this honor but have been forgotten or have been, as my Dad used to say, “lost in the woodwork“….
There is another one from there now. One “Alleged” murderer that killed his fellow soldiers in a waiting room and Psychiatrist no less and one AWOL potential murderer. He tried to buy 6 pounds of gunpowder. Some slick defense lawyer will have an explanation for that. God only knows what is going on in other Military installations around the world? It’s the one’s we don’t hear about that bother me. Bother me? Well, not really. I just feel bad for the innocent victims of these monsters. I wonder why some sharpshooter just didn’t take out this guy from Norway. I would have. If caught alive, it seems that they try to get away with murder by proclaiming insanity. Its like people agree or at least I do. In a sense they are insane but its not the same. Now, because a Sniper didn’t take them out they are locked up talking to Lawyers and we all know what that means. They have go to court, listen to all their nonsense, spend millions to support them, house them, feed them when all it would have cost was $ .75 cents for a bullet. Isn’t it weird that when they get caught alive they seem ready with their speeches, and insane excuses. It looks like that murderer from Norway was not only ready with a speech but he had publicity stills for TV and detailed explanations on why he would blow up people and kill those innocent kids. Someone said its religion. Now HBO’s Bill Maher is saying it’s Christian Terrorists. This statement has to be a ratings gag but you never really know. I said this in the past before. “Religion to me is a peaceful God who allows me a moment and the time to think and realize I am not in control of my destiny“. Its for me to realize that hate and anger have no place in my life. I can’t imagine any God condoning killing children. Hey, it makes you wonder, you never know? Normal people don’t do these things. What kind of upbringing did these psychopaths have? What kind of parents? The parents of these guys must be so proud now to see how their wonderful sons are behaving. Joining the military these days is NOT a good idea but I can understand being in the military. I was, but to actually kill an innocent human being. Shooting at a bunch of screaming kids. Wow, that’s heavy…Why? Killing kids, Its pointless misdirected anger. Is it anger or jealousy and rage at the greedy rich? I can see that people would be angry. Hell, I am… but to actually kill someone…That’s really over the top…Who would or could intentionally kill or hurt or even take the chance of maiming an innocent person. How would you live with yourself? To wake up in the morning knowing that you could have did something to someone that caused physical injury would be more than I could handle. I can’t imagine being so consumed with hate or revenge that I would actually hurt someone… I mean they plan and know exactly what they are doing…Its with out a doubt, unabashed premeditated murder.
This is a conglomeration of things that have been on my mind for a long time….Like I said in the past, this stuff bothers me….It must be all the negative changes and how greedy or just down right ignorant our leaders are…When it comes right down to it, the world today revolves around oil, drugs, both legal and illegal and surprisingly, something you don’t hear much about, water. Not necessarily in that order. I notice the price of gas going up again and not one person in Washington is saying anything about it…Here where I live, the State gas tax is almost a dollar a gallon, The price for regular gas is $4.15 plus a gallon. So not only is the State of Connecticut raping us of our savings they are doing it retroactively back to January first 2011. As far as water goes I’ll bet you have a filter on your faucet at home or you drink bottled water. In any event, you use some kind filter before you drink water. Its never straight out of the tap. I know people don’t like hearing this but sooner or later we will run out of fresh drinking water. It will take a while but we will run out. Amy just died of a drug overdose in London and I know personally of individuals who will die of alcoholism or drug addiction within the next 2 years…The disease of Addiction is on the rise more and more each day. Prescription drugs are being abused also. Not to mention the side effects of some of these drugs. Its all about money and greed and again not one person in Washington cares or will do anything about it. There are no discussions or even, “Those” deals in Washington on how to make oil companies reduce the price of gas so the U.S. economy will stabilize and survive. There are no deals whatsoever for anything out here! Everything is priced to the max! Everything is too expensive! He talks about the American people feeding their families…What planet is this guy on??? America can’t borrow enough money to fix anything. It doesn’t take a genius to know that if everyone has to buy gas to go to work there will be nothing left to buy anything else.… I can’t imagine how people do it. Think about it!… How much of your pay goes to the Arabs and the oil company’s? No one has even bothered to talk about winters in the Northeast. If you tried to run your home or business on credit or with all this borrowed money you know what’s going to happen. If you are living on credit, it will not work. The end for you is near…Borrowing money just never works…Why? Because sooner or later you have to PAY IT BACK! How much of this borrowed money is for foreign aid? Its disgusting! They NEVER pay it back and it just goes to all the corrupt leaders. This country is paying for everything around world including all the illegal’s in this country…Think about this…There wouldn’t be so many illegal’s here if they were happier in their homeland we pay for. Its absolute insanity… I have seen quite a few presidents in my life and I am guilty of laughing at Mr. Bush but this Obama guy tops the list of being the most incompetent. He has no idea of how to run things or manage anything. The spending must stop. Its like he is trying to provoke people into anarchy. Hey, lets face it, he is pissing off a lot of people. Washington is out of control and its getting worse each day. The Terrorist’s are winning……
I said I was never going to write about the weather again…Well, OK just one more time…One word, Hot…As you know I worked at Bradley Int. airport for a long time and I don’t remember it ever being this hot. It probably was but I don’t think it felt like it does now…It is seriously hot here at the shore line. It must be dangerously hot inland. Its even too hot to go to the beach…it’s the kind of hot that makes you ask yourself what am I doing outside?…it’s the kind of hot that makes your air conditioner at home run, continuously. Its so hot you don’t care…Let it run…it’s the kind of hot that makes you wonder why you never fixed the car air conditioner no matter how much it cost. it’s the kind of hot that makes me feel sorry for people who are working outside..… Its so hot that I hope my nieces and nephews are OK and my kids and grand kids are OK and somewhere cool.
The weekends at the summer cottage on the ocean are nice. Borrowing the fast car is another cool thing. Those dinners in the fancy restaurants are wonderful. All take, take, take. All good for a while. You are happy that you have such a wealthy friend. It makes you feel like you fit right in. Then after a while the guilt sets in. Its not bad at first because you justify it by thinking “He can afford it‘…That’s not it. Its how you feel inside. You feel like that you are someone that hangs on because its the thing to do. Later, you think that behind your back people are calling you are a leach. My dad used to say, “It was climbing on the band wagon or riding the gravy train” You could be 15 or 50, age doesn’t matter. Its really because after a while you grow up and realize that sooner or later you will need to reciprocate and you know you can’t do it.
Wad of Cash? I have returned a check book, keys and various other items. One time not too long ago I found $27 on the beach. I kept that because there was no one around to ask if anybody lost it…..The only cash I have found that was memorable was in the form of a $100 dollar bill. I stopped in a country grocery store one day. It was in the middle of the morning around 10 AM. I don’t remember what I bought but as I was walking to the speed check I glanced down and there it was. A folded in half $100 bill. I admit, I looked around for someone but nobody was in the store at the time and no one seemed to be watching so I picked it up and put it in my pocket. I just got laid off from my job a few days before so was this a stroke of good luck? There was no one around so I went outside to sit in the car to watch and see if anyone asked the cashier if anyone found anything. I could see her through the window. No one asked her anything. So after about 10 minutes I left. If the money was in a wallet or purse I would have returned it….That was years ago. I still think about that one.
I’m not a Doctor or a Research scientist but from what I understand from someone answering this question this morning is that AIDS is a “smart virus“. I think from what I heard in the past about this, is that this means that this disease and others develop an immunity to cures. Like other diseases and illnesses and antibiotics…..I hope not.
Can you tell by the news that everyone is really angry at greedy Millionaires and Billionaires? Check out the shaving cream incident in England on Murdoch. Think about this…He said “he wasn’t responsible for what his trusted employees did“….. Huh…Was CA responsible for what happened to her daughter? Wait, stop right there, I would rather start with our corrupt politicians in Washington. These days people are even more angry with them. The interesting part is they know people are angry and now they just don’t care….It all started about 100 years ago when a cop walking his beat went into a market in a busy city and the owner gave him an apple. Technically, that fine officer should have said “I’m sorry sir but I can’t accept gifts?”. Then the officer should have walked out the door…..Why, you ask? Its only an apple……Its simple! …The moment he took that apple he owed the grocer a favor! …..That is WTF is going on now! …..All of your trusted leaders in Washington owe somebody something!….No one can do anything without making a deal. Sound familiar? Its even sounds shady. Having said all that, Now I will say and I feel very confident that all the politicians in Washington and the 50 States are corrupt. Including our President. Surprised?…..Why? They don’t care! Its just business as usual…. They all take graft in one form or another. They all smell of dirty money and gifts of ill gotten gains. Find one that doesn’t lie. I dare you to find one, just one that isn’t dirty. Find just one that you can trust. You can’t, they don’t exist….Can you find one that you can actually understand what they are saying? Find just one that isn’t for himself. Find one that isn’t a Millionaire. Hey, find one that flies commercial…Find one that doesn’t have a limo and a driver. Find one that doesn’t have a life time pension and life time health care. These are the same bunch of thieves that are trying to screw up Social Security and Medicare. All around the world corruption has been made legal because of the manipulation of words and the laws that were made by these same corrupt men and woman. Cross the line over to Politics and its every man for himself. No wonder they run for office. Do you really think Linda will spend all those millions to be a Senator to help people? Believe that and have I got a corporate jet to sell you…They will steal your soul if you don’t keep and eye on it…I dare you to find one of these fools that is for the people…I double dare you to find one that didn’t take that apple…..
You haven’t changed. You are still inappropriate and condescending. Your personality changes are predictable and a mirror of your life. Drugs, alcohol and now mental illness have put you where you are now, only now you are worse than before. Now when you lie you don’t fool anyone. You just look like the fool. Its sad but for you its too late. You are consumed with degradation but in one respect are lucky in that it will soon be over for you. Your Dad and Sons will bury you next to your Mother and it will finally be over. The pain you have caused everyone that came in contact with you will linger but will soon disappear. You will be thought of, as only a bad memory. The people that don’t understand your sickness and your enemy’s will be grateful that you are in Hell. Its sad but this one paragraph will be your Obituary and the meaning of your life. I will pray for you even though its probably too late.

“I Have Seen the Good and Bad”
Robert De Niro from the movie “15 Minutes” said “Sometimes you gotta go away in order to come back“. Actually I’m not back, I never went anywhere and I’m not at a loss for words. It’s the words I have that are always negative. I don’t like the way I feel and I can’t stand what I write. I start writing about good things and it always comes out bad. Its the way I have been feeling and I am tired of writing about the craziness in this country and around the world. The thing is, I have seen the good and bad. I have lived it. Now its all bad and its out of control and because I have been there I know what the future holds. I don’t think it can be repaired. I don’t think anybody wants to repair it. I am not going to offer any solutions or even say what the problems are. I guess I’m just going to watch. Its all I can do..
That’s easy. Right where I am.. Five years from now? A little older yes but here by the ocean…I came home almost two years ago and I don’t plan on going anywhere. Why? There is something about walking on the beach any time you want or listening to the surf in the fall or winter. Its magnetic. There is an understanding and serenity by the ocean. I’m reminded by the power of the sea that I’m not in charge of anything that happens and I can feel my Higher Power listening when I think…
One Christmas or was it Easter my brother and his family and myself went to visit our Mom in Assisted living for dinner as we did every holiday. They offered a menu of Prime rib, Shrimp and Duck. To be different I thought I would try the Duck. “Big mistake”. All I could think about was the little Ducklings following Mom around the pond. I couldn’t finish because of a queasy stomach. Never again.
OK, are you ready for this? We all know we are being watched by security cameras in all the stores. Its just in case one of us decides to “steal” something. We know that we cannot wear sunglasses in a bank because of the security cameras. I guess sunglasses are like a disguise. The NSA (National Security Agency) is listening to random or what they call “suspicious” cell phone calls. Everything we do on the internet is spot checked by the police and the government. They check (Facebook and Twitter) for key words and pictures and who knows what else. I have purposely written about bombs in my blog just see what would happen? Nothing did. They must have said, “I’m harmless“. With a last name like Ferrari he ain’t bombing anything. Now if my name was Mohammed or Abdul I wouldn’t have tried it. Racial profiling by names? OK, OK that’s a story for another day. We are practically strip searched at the airports. The only ones who don’t have this done are the rich and our Politicians of coarse who fly private jets. Does “Corporate jet tax”, sound familiar?…Isn’t that the tax they want to cut? Seriously, at airports they are x-raying our private parts and touching us in places that if we were somewhere else we would be calling it sexual assault. Now, there is a new threat! Explosives implanted in breasts, stomachs or up the rectum. I can‘t wait to see them searching for that. Its worth a trip to the airport just to watch. The most sick by far is hand searching a 6 year old girl at the airport. You need to see that, click on the link. Well, guess what? Do you recall hearing about the “Drone” aircraft they are using. These are pilot less airplanes operated from the ground by a computer. They are using them to spy on or to bomb in all our wars and “Not wars” all over the world? You know, all those wars they say NATO but they really mean the U.S. in disguise…Like the in the wars they say when NATO troops are killed they really mean the U.S. military…Right, those wars. Soon, if not all already they will be using Drone aircraft to spy on us here in the United States. So when you see a sign on the road “Speed checked by aircraft” You had better believe it…They? And I don’t know who “they” are but they are thinking about building large Drone aircraft to fly air freight and this is opening the door for much more. Remember HAL, (Heuristically Artificial Intelligence) from the movie 2001? Well, kids its beginning to happen. Laugh all you want but first really, really think about it.

Everyone is freaking out over the decision in the Casey Anthony trial… She’s not innocent but she’s not guilty of murdering her daughter. I have been watching this case live on the internet on and off for the past 3 weeks…I agree with the decision. I don’t agree that she didn’t do it. Something happened and her daughter died as a result. As a parent she was responsible for what happened her daughter, its plain and simple. Now she will be living in a fake celebrity bubble and become a millionaire because of this tragedy. That will be her downfall. Now she will live in the prison of public scrutiny for years. Can someone like her survive that? How long will it take for her new world to collapse? I believe it would have better for her to be in a real prison. Now she is the prisoner of her own mind knowing that at the cost of her daughters life she is where she is….As we all know or should know the fame she has now will be her downfall. We will wait and see…
Went downtown last night to ride my bike…It was very peaceful and there was no traffic. All the tourists went home early…I was sitting on a park bench talking to a guy while eating a small cone from Dairy Queen. No waiting in line…We started talking about gas prices for Marine fuel. No, I didn’t bring it up, actually his wife did…Marine fuel here costs $4.97 a Gallon…This equates to a round trip in a small boat say 18 foot to 24 foot across long island sound to Long Island costs approx $500 Dollars. Have a happy day boating folks…I had two boats when I was younger…It didn’t cost me $500 dollars to run them for a whole season…
I've always wanted to tell this story from years ago.....I wasn't there but it was explained to me this way...Two guys I know were riding around a car throwing M-80s out the passenger side window. An M-80 is a large fire cracker used by the military to simulate gunfire or hand grenades during training exercises. I’ll bet you didn’t know that…In the past you could buy them on the street at the firework stands. They were on almost street corner. Then they then would ride around the town of Warehouse Point Connecticut lighting and throwing them out the car window…Things went well until he lit one and when he threw it, it hit the side of the window opening and fell in on the floor. I can imagine some drinking was involved here. I mean it was the fourth of July. He reached down to get it but it slid under the seat. Somehow he managed to retrieve it but by then it was too late. It exploded and blew off his right thumb....This is a true story. The kind you don't whether to laugh or cry when you hear it. Be careful out there…
He was disorganized. He was grasping at straws but he had a point. He just doesn't sound smart saying it. His presentation isn't from Yale or Harvard. Its like too much information for him to handle. Maybe its just me but I doubt it. I kinda feel sorry for him. Like the little kid at bat against a great pitcher with 2 outs trying to hit a home run and win the game...I just described the lead defense attorney for Casey Anthony. Still, there are things missing like there is no father. It seems the victim, Calee had no father. No one ever mentioned a dad and no one came forward to claim responsibility. I’m surprised no one came forward. Not even to become famous. That leads me to believe he is dead. They implied Cindy, Casey’s mom did it by accident by leaving the pool ladder down and she drowned. After discovering the body, Casey’s dad hid the little girls body down the street in some woods. Interesting but they didn‘t say too much about Casey not saying her daughter was missing for 31 days…...The other Casey defense attorney said to the jury "Find her innocent because they, the prosecution didn't prove she did it". That doesn't mean she didn't do it. It just means they couldn't prove she did. These days unless you actually see someone kill someone, lawyers will manipulate and twist words to the point where you don’t know who to believe. Especially if you are rich or want to become famous… In any event, a beautiful little girl, 3years old is dead. She was found 15 houses down the street from the Anthony house in some woods by a meter man going to the bathroom while waiting for his boss to pick him up. The decision to convict or acquit supposedly goes to jury today…
On Casey Anthony…This twit never thought of the consequences of her behavior. Just did what she did not caring about anything except herself. Her family is ruined. She's been in jail in solitary confinement for 3 years and now more than likely will be convicted of killing her daughter, Caylee. That beautiful little girl...They are reading her father's suicide note... Unbelievable...
Osama Now Deader said we will hit the Americans where it hurts the most. In their pocket book. In their economy. Today what do we have? Outrageous gas prices, higher taxes, no jobs, lay-offs and crime. Not just ordinary crime if there is such a thing but the most sickening offensive things one human can do to another human. The worst cases of child neglect and abuse since the middle ages. The killing of innocent bystanders in convenience store robberies where the take is sometimes less that $100 dollars. Politicians quitting because of sexual deviations and corruption is at an all time high and getting worse as I write this…
Lately I have been watching the Casey Anthony Murder Trial. Its like I got hooked on the antics of the prosecution and the defense. No predictions here and some would disagree but it doesn’t look good for Miss Anthony…For those of you who don’t know what this is all about. Prosecutors allege that Casey Anthony, 25, killed her daughter Caylee in 2008 by rendering her unconscious with chloroform, putting duct tape over her nose and mouth so she would suffocate, or a combination of the two acts. They also allege that Anthony stored the body in the trunk of her car in plastic bags for days, before dumping it in the woods. This link is for live coverage from a TV station WESH in Orlando Fla. You can see the trial live and twitter or chat on face book from the page. Its works all day and to me its very interesting. Hey, try it for yourself. http://www.wesh.com/casey-anthony-extended-coverage/interactive.html
The best news I got yesterday was that Rod Blagojevich was convicted of corruption. I can only hope and pray that it was something I wrote about in the past that helped convict him. Now they have go after Burris and anyone connected with Blagojevich’s time in office. The walking hair piece could get 300 years in prison. Comment from Rod…”I’m stunned”.
To reiterate why Casey is on trial here just in case some of you are confused by the defenses manipulation……
Prosecutors allege that Casey Anthony, 25, killed her daughter Caylee in 2008 by rendering her unconscious with chloroform, putting duct tape over her nose and mouth so she would suffocate, or a combination of the two acts. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2161275151241&set=a.1343865196503.2051548.1227423877&type=1&theater
They also allege that Anthony stored the body in the trunk of her car for days, before dumping it in the woods.
If you use Google Earth you can see where Casey lived at 4937 Hopespring Dr. Orlando FL and see where she dumped her daughters body.
Just a little share about Facebook……A while ago I had home page problems with Facebook. One day I opened my page to find 3 strange large pictures that I did not put there. They were across the top of the page. I tried everything to delete and get rid of them but to no avail. Each day the odd pictures would change. I could not understand why they were there. I would never put anything as asinine there. They were boring and ridiculous. I wrote to Facebook at least 10 times to help me clear this up. They did nothing. I received no response. I changed the settings, I tried everything, nothing worked. The days went on. I waited for a response. My thought was, they just don’t care. Trust me, they don’t care unless an FBI agent or a Lawyer calls on them with a Lawsuit because some poor kid was raped or murdered because they put to much information on their Facebook profile page. I tried everything so I did what I needed to. I opened a new page and I changed my name to the longer version. If you read this and are confused by my full name please call me Lar or LJ……… I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.
I remember when they added the words “Under God” to the pledge.” My teacher, a Nun, (Sisters of Mercy) stood us up and asked us to face the flag. The Stars and stripes, 48 stars at the time was hanging on a pole on the door casing about 10 feet up. I was really little so it could have been less. We said the Pledge every day without fail before class started...Here is a good one for you. We held our little arms straight out and up at an angle like the Hitler salute. I remember when they changed it to hand over your heart. We were told to pledge the flag under God because so many men and woman through the years have died for our country and he flag represents the country. If we allow them to change “Under God” The next thing you know they will want to change the words of the National Anthem....
Wow, its Wednesday…Late again, distracted by Casey trial…Again no comment not yet anyways..…Today its breakfast with friends…Thank you all very much for your feedback. I love all your opinions. We can do that here in America. Say what we want, when we want. Thank you…
The picture is from a little ocean inlet where I ride my bike.. If I paid this beautiful bird he couldn’t have posed any better…
I sent a letter to NBC Communications concerning the “Pledge of Allegiance”
and they sent me a response. I like to thank them for hearing me…
Thank you for writing regarding your concern over the beginning of our
U.S. Open coverage on Sunday.
We are aware of the distress this has caused many of our viewers and are
taking the issue very seriously.
Unfortunately, when producing the piece - which was intended to
capitalize on the patriotism of having our national championship played
in our nation's capital - a decision was made by a small group of people
to edit portions of the Pledge of Allegiance.
This was a bad decision.
As soon as management became aware of this decision and the controversy
it justifiably created, it immediately took steps to correct it
resulting in an on-air apology provided by NBC Sports' lead golf
commentator Dan Hicks.
It was not the intent of NBC to upset anyone and we sincerely apologize
to anyone who was offended.
Thank you again for taking the time to voice your concerns.
Sincerely,
Chris McCloskey
Vice President, Communications
NBC Universal Sports & Olympics
The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag: "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.", should be rendered by standing at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. When not in uniform men should remove any non-religious headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should remain silent, face the flag, and render the military salute."
Had a great time yesterday, met with friends for breakfast and then later that afternoon I went and had lunch on the beach. I Have been doing that everyday and It seems its getting more crowded but that’s alright. It is Summer after all. Is it me or am I thinking that its more residents and not so many tourists. During the week I mostly go to places where the beaches are private.. So that must be the difference…On the weekends I go to a beach where there are always lots of people…Even in my town it seems there are less outsiders. I must be getting used to all the people or it cost too much to get here. I have been riding my bike everyday. My legs are much stronger. I can tell, I can do hills a lot easier and faster than when I started this year…Today, after the Casey Anthony trial, I’m really hooked on that but no comment. I’m off to do some food shopping then later for a long bike ride. I went to the book store the other day. I was actually pleased that it was still there. It still has paper books with pages to turn…It even smells like a book store...It was nice and I love the memories of an old fashion book store where you can still sit in an easy chair and browse a book or two…Quote from chapter 16 in Robert Redford’s new biography. Let me set this up. …While he was making the movie “All the President’s Men” He was in Washington and visited President Jerry Fords Oval Office. I guess for research and to see what it was like to have the worlds highest office. He thought, after having a conversation with Mr. Ford “You don’t have to be a Rhodes scholar to be President”. Now see what you miss by not visiting your local book store….On the news this morning. I can’t resist this… The Utube Jackass got killed last night. After making millions of dollars by tempting fate and hundreds of suicide attempts. I call them suicide attempts. What else would it be? It finally caught up with him when he ran his Porsche into a tree at a high rate of speed. He was drunker than a skunk.
The new me is officially going to start today…Of coarse I’ve said this 743 times before. I mean it this time. Well, almost mean it…Can you almost mean it? I know about half measures and all that but I will try. There are a few things I’m not going to anymore. First writing about the weather. Unless its really like the Tornado or flood that I was in I’m not going to say anything. Except if its over 100 degrees, then I have to say something. Politics, that’s a tough one because someone has to keep an eye on the crooks. Its easy these days because most of them are so you don’t have far to look. I will try to back off on that. Maybe I’ll save it for the Tweets. I’m not going to swear. I really haven’t done much of that but when I start it means I’m upset. I’ll back off on that no matter what. I had a good fathers day yesterday even though I am one of the unfortunate Dads that have 2 ungrateful sons. Actually, its odd when you don’t have a father. I found myself putting a picture of my Dad on my blog and writing about him. Scroll down, it’s a high school picture. He was a really nice guy and I’m so glad we, my brother and I had the opportunity to take care of him in his last days…If anyone has a problem with Dad issues take care of those issues soon because the pain of regret later will be intolerable. Remember I when I wrote about, the I wish I could have done things but its too late now feeling…My advice is have the presence of mind now to help your parents, you won’t regret it in the future. Meanwhile this morning I’m going to breakfast with friends and have a good time….Take care guys. Larry’s back…
Wow, what good question! There are so many things I don’t know where to begin. My Dad is in Heaven now and I miss him each and every day. I would like to thank him for being the greatest Dad in the world. I’d like to thank him for setting an example of kindness and patience. Without those two gifts I wouldn’t be who I am today….
Last night a bear cub was killed on one the highways here in Connecticut. The driver did not stop. Last week a mountain lion was killed. If I remember right that person did stop. I often see numerous deer and various creatures lying dead on the side of the road. I always wonder where everyone is going in such a rush? Do you have to go so fast that you can’t stop or miss a confused creature that is in the street. What if it was a little kid? Then it dawned on me that you are all very important and that if you arrive late Billions of dollars will be lost or no one will be available to make a major life saving decision. Let me suggest something…In 100 years no one will remember anything about you or care about anything you did. To most of you, no one will remember next week who you were or what you did. To all others whose lives are not so important slow down, leave earlier and enjoy the scenery. Take my word for it. You are not that important and if you are not there no will care.
If found innocent TV appearances, all the morning shows. book tour….Reality TV then obscurity.. In 100 years people will say Casey Who?

Reply to the comment about Weener’s wife working for Mrs. Clinton.
Then the conversation should have went something like this…A very excited Huma Abedin runs into the office and says…..“Hilary, Hilary guess what“? Hilary says, “What Huma” what happened. Huma says, “Tony proposed to me and I said yes“…Hilary replies, “Congratulations Huma, that’s wonderful but now you must resign“ Huma sighs, “But why Hilary why? “Huma, it’s a matter of the integrity of my office“ Hilary goes on by saying, “In the future we can‘t have anyone thinking anything negative on why you were hired”. Especially that Blogger guy Larry. He’s always looking for improprieties. The way American Politian’s are scrutinized these days with all the corruption and dishonesty, the people we work for will never understand. “We have to maintain the highest level of honesty and respect for the office, so the people will know we work for them and not for ourselves. It would be inappropriate for you to continue to work for me. I’m sorry Huma but that’s the way is“.
But as we all know that didn’t happen and Hilary’s public relation team has to work overtime hoping this doesn’t catch on, playing it down and keeping it out of the news…
Oops, I lost my temper and said a swear in the comment section of Politico.com and for that I am truly sorry if I offended anyone. Actually it was a post from my Blog but rest assure it won’t happen again. However, I am glad you brought this to my attention because there have been further surprising events added to the Anthony Weener case. It seems that Ginger Lee, a stripper porn star has been the receipent of some of Weener’s foul tweets and pictures. She said she is, “willing to cooperate with an ethics investigation“. Good for her. In the meantime Weener’s pregnant wife returned home from a trip from to Africa. Now, I’m not going to swear here but I really want too. This is a case of, if you know somebody in the political world or if you owe somebody something in the political world, sort of like in the Rod Blagojevich case, we can take care of you by hireing your wife or husband. There should be an investagation on why Weener’s wife works for Secretary of State Hilary Clinton. Is this like Nepotism? I think it is. Its like, lets pay the whole family with tax dollars. I don’t think screw is a swear? Lets all get together and screw the little guy that has to pay four dollars a gallon for gas to go to a mediocre job. Lets screw the Seniors and the Social Security recipients by not giving them a lousy 2% cost of living raise for 3 years and lets improve Medicare by make them pay for health care benefits. If you hire my wife we can have paid for Life health care, Lifetime pension. We can have a piece of the Federal cash cow…I can see it now. The behind the scenes backroom deal. You deleted my post because I said a swear when I was angry and I don’t blame you. Are you blind? Can’t you see what’s going on…Do you blame me for being mad? It just never ends. As each day goes by the worse it gets for this guy and he will still lie and try to talk his way out of it…
The Blogosphere
I’ve had some people say that I am “Intense”. I’ve even had someone say “Its because of people like you,” that and so on and so forth. Well, thank you I am honored to be called those things. Yes, I agree that times I can be very blunt and sometimes unintentionally hurtful but you must admit the truth does hurt sometimes. At times I exaggerate or stretch the truth but no matter how it comes out its still the truth. I comment on the, “what ifs“...Well, good or bad what if I and writers like me didn’t say what we say or write what we write? What if we all sat around with our heads in the sand doing nothing? Somehow I can’t imagine not doing or saying anything. Some of us Blog because we don’t want the bad guys to get away with anything. No, I don’t want to be a celebrity or famous. I’m not the best writer in the world and I don’t command the greatest use of punctuation and the English Language. I was a “C” English student in High School. I did take courses in English Composition in College where I was a “B” student. I have been known to use unusual words from the past and writing about the future. Some of my predictions actually have happened. I have been known to write about solutions, some very extreme but sooner or later will need to happen. They are only putting off the inevitable. Its like we writers put up a wall of words between us and them. We bring to light, the miss deeds of the “Want to be thieves” of the political world and the corrupt leaders from around the world. I report on what I think the real reasons are for things happening. We write because It keeps the perverts like that guy from New York who should be arrested by the way, that took pictures of himself to show young woman. We remind them that they should be setting an example of morality and will never get away with anything because we are always watching. I can honestly say that at long last I am proud member of the Blogosphere…
(blah-GOY'-uh-vich).
Warning……There is a little “Salty Language” here…
It was another hot day yesterday…All winter long I complained about the cold…Well, not complained just, well yes, complained and whined…No more! I’m not going to say anything about the weather..
Comment…..Example of Greed out of control...Delta Airlines charging our soldiers who are coming home from risking their lives in those Hellholes over there $200 for the extra duffel bag. The government said they (that means we) will pick up the tab. I wonder who the ass-wipe was that thought of that charge…It must have been some dope in a staff meeting somewhere?…Duh…
No comment on the Anthony case except that I feel really bad for that beautiful little kid….
Comment…Posting a picture of your body parts on an Internet Social page is a really stupid thing to do. There is no other way to say it.. This is an example of the kind of fool who makes decisions about the future of our country and what kind of money to spend on what and where. He is the laughing stock of the political world. Plus, he’s so ego driven that he won’t resign. Hell, I can’t imagine not resigning. How does he justify this behavior to his pregnant wife and unborn child. This guy has no pride or morals. He should be fired or impeached or what ever they do to these idiots…When I hear his name I can only think of a Weiner showing pictures of his Weener…World wide humiliation. Even the Taliban is laughing at him…Think about that! What is the attraction about that Congress job? Prestige, ego? Someone should ask his Mother and Father what they think about his behavior and if that is the way they brought him up? Hey, dumb ass. Who do you think you are? Bill Clinton? It has to be self interest because he certainly doesn’t care about the people. On Dave the other night he was the “Butt” of all the jokes…Now, I heard there are new nude pictures! His colleagues should check how old the girls are that he sent his nude pictures to. They should also check his “Hard” drive for Porn…This guy is a pervert and he should be on some kind of pervert watch list. Like, “Warning”, don’t let this loser give any speeches in your school.
Comment…..The price of gas went up again and our wonderful President is still doing nothing about it. I don’t know too much about this story, I just caught the tail end of it on NPR but Yelling here>>>“Its not my job to know”. It seems there was a disagreement in the negotiations they are having about how much to rape the American people at the gas pump….I actually feel dirty when I buy gas. I hate giving those Bastards anything. I hate that this country allows them to hurt us like this.
Comment..….Doesn’t the television networks realize that there are too many commercials on in the morning. Morning Hell, all day….Boring and repetitive, geared to the weak minded, designed to have people max out their already maxed out credit cards and to take money from people who don’t have any money…Television is to the point of embarrassment themselves. Hey, greedy producers! Can you imagine how many people mute the TV? Personally, I mute the TV in the morning and I don’t watch TV at night. If you are so good with statistics you figure out why.
I’m glad I live at the beach. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I feel like am home. There are no regrets…I heard all the heat is coming, so I am all prepared. Even the schools here are letting out early. That’s not a good sign. It’s the thunder storms later that I worry about….Did you ever hear and see a lighting and thunder storm over the ocean? Its scary and spectacular all at the same time. I’ve been riding my bike every day now and my legs are getting stronger. I’m almost back in racing form. I have a 26 speed mountain bike that I put special tires on…I was surprised yesterday when I had it up to 32 mph on a straight smooth road. My usual speed is about 10-15 mph. I don’t ask for much these days…Just a little breeze off the ocean.. Thank you very much…I have been watching the Casey Anthony trial on the internet. There are hundreds of pictures of little Caylee. Its one of the saddest things I have ever seen…
I went to work as an apprentice airport electrician at Bradley International Airport on the morning of Oct. 3,1979. It was just a normal day like all days. The birds were singing and a fall chill was in the air. I drove my newly purchased used $500 1971 Ford pickup truck to the airport and parked it along side my friends new Ford van and went to get my work truck out of building # 228. In those days all the airport buildings had numbers. They were old military buildings left over from World war II that were given to the State of Connecticut and each had a designation or a number. I parked the work truck in that building at night when we were done work…As I was unlocking the door the third vehicle arrived. It was one of the airport painters just getting to work. I backed the truck out of the building and got out and locked the door. Said good morning to the painter who was suffering from his usual hangover and I left. I drove by the new fire house and onto the eastside taxiway to cross the approach of runway 33. I picked up the microphone and called the Bradley control tower. “Bradley ground this is this is State 5 on the east side, at the approach of runway 33”. The tower replied “State 5 Bradley ground“. I replied, “holding short of runway 33, clearance to cross“. Hold short State 5 landing traffic to your left…I waited and watched as a Mohawk Airlines BAC 111 passed and landed, tires chirping and smoking as they hit the runway. As the plane passed by, the tower said, “State 5 clear to cross runway 33“…I replied, “5 roger, clear to cross“ and I headed to the Electrical shop on the ground floor of the terminal building…Little did anyone know this would be one of the worst days in the history of Bradley International Airport.
I was in that Electrical shop that afternoon. I think it was around 2PM, when the sky turned a dark gray. It had an odd pinkish red tint and the wind was from the east, it was unusually strong. The airport Windsock was straight out. That was not a good sign. Someone in the shop was yelling something and air pressure in that large room dropped to the point where the air was being vacuumed out at the ramp level doors. The doors slammed to the open position as papers and small tools were being sucked out to the aircraft ramp. Without thinking I ran to the open doors, I could feel the wind and pressure at my back as I grasped both handles and struggled to close them. I managed to get both doors closed enough to slam the bolt closed and lock them. As I did this I watched through the door windows as the roof of the cantilever hanger started to swirl off in a counter clock wise flight into the air…I glanced to my left and watched as an American Airlines Boeing 707 tried to land on runway 24, only to touch down, tires smoking and then throttle forward and nose up with a deafening roar to take off again while making an immediate right turn away, wings bent from the strain of the turn heading away from the storm as fast as the airliner would go. It was then I heard the wind roaring and the train sound that everyone talks about. After that I don’t remember much except my assignment was to keep the airport emergency generators running as long as I could. I told my supervisor later that night that if I didn’t shut them off one of them was going to burn out because of the amps it was putting out and load it was carrying. If I remember correctly he said “ Keep them running I don’t care if they burn up” He did some swearing but I won’t say what he said…I did manage to keep them running and one generator did burn out as I predicted it would in the early morning hours, coming to a grinding halt.…I shut off the other generator and the airport runways and terminal went dark.
Earlier in the evening I did manage to call home and was relieved to find out that our house was in tact and everyone was safe. In the weeks to come everything is a blur but I remember the destruction and devastation were like nothing I have ever seen. I describe it as like the airport was bombed during a war. There were pieces of aircraft everywhere. The smell of aviation fuel was unbearable. I was astonished at the nails and debris that was everywhere and pieces of homes and buildings that were in what was left of the twisted Oak and Maple trees. I don’t recall when I went to check on my truck but when I got there it was intact but that new van that I parked next to was totally destroyed. The chimney from the building fell on the rear of the van and crushed it. My truck had a broken windshield and two flat tires. The painters car was dented and sandblasted like my truck but otherwise was OK. These pictures. Taken with what I believe is a 35 MM camera. One of the Cantilever hanger with the roof gone and the tail of a B-52 bomber sticking out of the back and my truck, I have never seen before till the other day. I was happily surprised and if you look closely there is my truck parked over by that pile of sand. It’s the one in the middle. That pile of wood and junk is what is left of building 228.…There were times when I parked my truck in the building. I glad I didn’t do it that day…I have never been in a situation like that since and I never want to be…
Good for the state of Florida for passing the Welfare drug test law…I hope it’s a supervised test by the State Police. I also think there should be a Federal law for the Pell school loans or borrowing any federal money for basically anything. Personally I think it should be mandatory for you to be a U.S. citizen and have a drug test before getting food stamps or any state program…Too many tax dollars a going up someone’s nose or for cigarettes. Hey, what can I say. Illegal Prescription drugs, Alcohol and now the power drinks that are laced with addictive ingredients designed to hook you, to get you to come back and spend more money. All stepping stone products to addict you in the future.. All designed to get you try more powerful things. Sooner or later you will and before you know it you are out of control. You can’t stop. The triggers then will be denial, anger, paranoia, fear and resentment. All these lead to jail or death. Don’t believe me? In the past drug dealers gave you a free sample of what they wanted to sell you to get you to come back for more. It didn’t take long before you would do just about anything (steal, sell yourself, Do you remember girls?) to get the drug. Today they do that to sell you just about anything. You know the stories. The tragic death of the high school kid who used just a little too much or committed suicide because he or she thought they couldn’t stop…To get any money (tax dollars) from any state of federal program there should be a mandatory supervised drug test. No Exceptions….
I went to the beach yesterday in Old Saybrook to eat my lunch and there was one person there. It was cloudy and the threat of rain was eminent. We ate together near the water at a picnic table under an umbrella.…Rule 342.5.....Always carry a lunch you never know if you will get to eat it with a babe wearing a bikini. …I love being single…
Live Journal is not publishing my Tweets…It’s just a new thing I am doing. it’s a feature that I pay for so its not like its unusual. It’s a popular thing to tie in Twitter and Facebook .….Some days they work, some days they don‘t, now they don‘t and haven’t for a long time…I keep sending those Support Requests but to no avail. They say they get them (its automated) But nothing is ever done…If I didn’t pay for this site I could understand but you would think they (whoever they is) would at least try to help me….My settings are as they should be. Its not like I‘m doing something wrong…I am not going to keep resetting it…It should work until I shut it off. Its very frustrating to to look and find nothing there….
“Honesty is a Life Force”
Did you miss me?….Don’t worry I’m still here…You probably can’t see me in all this fog but I’m here. There was a break in the fog the other day and the sun came out for a little while. I jumped on that very quickly and took a ride on my bike for about 10 miles. Just a sample of things to come…What’s new?… Well, The latest thing is I’ve been getting phone calls from someone I dated in 2006.…No details but our relationship was volatile to say the least. Remember when I went on that liar rant post a while ago? Every once and a while I think about how she treated me and I write about honesty and what a rare commodity this is these days. Actually honesty and integrity are my favorite topics…I wrote about the woman who use half truths to manipulate men and practically anyone so they can to get what they want. Well, I’ve been watching the Casey Anthony murder trial and the person that is calling me reminds of the girl that’s on trial. In the past when called she was mostly civil. Now when she calls she’s drunk or high on drugs. The foul language, shock statements about her promiscuity are there but now she is slurring and muttering her words. Please believe me, I don’t like when the predictions I make come true like this. I truly believe that honesty is a life force. Telling the truth, good or bad is a main stay to leading a happy sober life. No, I will not be helping this very sick young woman nor will get involved with her decline. All her problems are hers and hers alone…I will venture to say that her life will be cut short because of what she is doing and maybe that’s a good thing because at least her pain will be over. In this case its sad because she has had all the chances humanly possible. Addiction is a horrible disease…
We had one glorious day all week and now its back to boring fog and100% humidity with the temperature in the 60s and the 70s. It can only be described as gray, damp and bleak. I guess it’s a holiday and for those of you who have to work and some sort of a getaway weekend for others. Well, I feel bad for you having to pay those obscene gas prices just to get away from the place you live to spend outrageous money for gas and food some where else. Hey, going away sometimes just isn’t worth it. Don’t forget the bed bugs you just may bring home with you. Getting there and finding crowds of angry people that have to pay tourist prices just like you. Me? I like to say I’m always on vacation. Today is only Friday so I don’t have to prepare for anything I’m always here. My new thing is I have been picnicking on the beach rain or shine everyday. I tested this out a couple of weeks ago and I made my lunch. I put it in a little chill box that I’ve had for years. I have been doing this for 2 weeks now. The result is I don’t pay tourist prices for any crowded restaurants and I know where the cheapest gas prices are. There two or three close by that are less than $4.00 a gallon. All this doesn’t change the fact its called “Memorial Day“. Make sure to take the time to visit your local Cemetery to say thank you….“GOD Bless America” because no one else will…
You peek into the past but what you read is just the past 3 or 4 years. I think we have grown to what we are now. Grown I should hope so I’m 72 years old and like and accept myself for who and what I am…Sister, I didn’t know, or did I that you had a sister. I forgot I guess. What ever became of Chausie? The girl from the school.. Say hi to your Mom and wish her well for me…
I'm currently in Pembroke NH babysitting my sister's house, 3 cats, and our Mother for the week. She is in Hawaii at her timeshare. Every year she goes someplace (Ireland last year) and I baby-sit. She's the traveler in the family, I'm the homebody. Somehow didn't expect it to end up like this, but you have to be who you are most happy being.
I read all the posts and I find it hard to reconcile what I remember of the boys and what I read. Time sure does change things and it's been more than 20 years, now that I think about it. I always figured Adam would be the one who never went near alcohol or anything as he was always not wanting to even take an aspirin after living with Stephen. He was always to close to you, so not surprised you still are. David and Stephen, well, knew David best and figured he'd be the role model type and provide you with Grandchildren and stay the even path. Steve - well, remember all the bad days you talked about, but he seemed so straight and, I'm sorry, arrogant about it the last time I saw him that figured he'd stay straight just to say he told you so. Wow, that didn't sound too good, but I don't mean it mean-spirited.
Anyway, this is odd, but reading your journals was like peeking into the past and realizing maybe it wasn't the way I remember. I don't think that we ever were close enough to be honest about how we felt or what we really wanted, or maybe that was just me. Took many years to figure out what commitment was and how to do it the right way. Then, of course, there's always that little part that hangs out and you wish things were more, better, different, who the heck knows. Again, probably just me. I wouldn't leave what I have, but a good portion of that is because it's safe and secure and I have few worries.
No matter how close you are to someone, there's always a little world out there that is separate, just for you. I have a friend but that's all it is, just a friend. It may surprise you, but I wouldn't dream of straying these days. See, some of us do grow up and learn. I think that little world is where you get all the ego boosting, and personal jollies that you can't get in your normal stable relationship. So, now you probably think I'm a dingbat, but you know, I've accepted me as I am and can live with that.
Hope this new person you met is fun and you get to have some nice times. So, also have fun on your bike and I'll pray for nice weather. Nice weather for you to ride your bike, and nice weather so I can figure out how the heck to entertain my mother, with her walker, all week.
I actually stayed up late to watch Lady Ga Ga on Dave last night and on Saturday Night Live. Outrageous and wild all at the same time. She is loved by millions of people including myself. I don’t know about love? That would be reaching. I do follow her on Facebook and bought her CDs. At first I couldn’t figure out what the attraction was. She is a good singer and I love the dancing that she and group does. I thought, “Why do I like her“? Then it occurred to me that she is entertainment’s version of what is happening in the United States and in the world. She represents the confusion and resistance to change with her performances. The songs are all basically the same. The beat is great. Its new and fresh. The way she dresses is her statement and it says you cant stop it so don’t try. The songs convince you to let it go, you can’t do anything about it so enjoy it. 25 years old and she has worked hard to create this unusual image. I like that she’s not a creation of a producer or an “Idol” like most of the new talent out there. I guess I watch because she’s good and to see what’s going to happen next……
I feel great this morning! Yesterday I went downtown to ride my bike…Its confusing I know…Downtown is like a starting point. In my downtown there is an ocean.. I have a coarse I follow and most of it is on the beach that goes to the woods then to silent tree lined streets with no cars then back to the starting point for a total of about 8 miles. Its somewhat hilly and It goes in a big circle. A bike rider will know what I’m talking about. We make these unmarked trails or courses to follow. I know its short but that is only half the coarse. The rest continues to the other side of town. The sun was out and I soaked up the vitamin D. It was beautiful. It doesn‘t look good for the tourists this year with the price of gas the way it is. There weren’t many yesterday. …Today I make my usual Sunday dinner then if the sun is out its off to Rocky Neck State beach for an afternoon bike ride. I love that place. There are a lot of unexplored woods and trails there...What a miserable week it was here in Connecticut….For one straight week it was fog, rain at night and humidity and cloudiness during the day.… Its very depressing. Something happened yesterday but don’t hold me to this. I shouldn’t be saying anything but I think I met a really nice lady…Wait, I know every time I say something before it materializes I get shot down. The last one was a disaster. We will see what Happens? Thinking about her puts me in a good mood but there will be no predictions. The fun and games continue… Stay tuned, more to follow at a later date….
Arnold Schwarzenegger. Weight lifter, actor, politician, Governor of California has morphed into a deceiver, manipulator, cheater, womanizer, liar, serial groper, father of illegitimate children and soon to be ex-husband of Maria Shriver. By the way, her Dad was married to President John F. Kennedy’s sister. Can you imagine how humiliated she must feel?…What a legacy! Just your classic American politician walking around with that dumb look on his face thinking he can get away with anything. Its just another example of having too much money and no brains thinking he’s better that everyone else. Having all that power and prestige and losing it, now get this….to have sex, “Without protection” with a housekeeper. No, not with a sexy co-star or starlet, a freaking housekeeper. I sort of always knew that he wasn’t the brightest bulb on the tree. No wonder this country is circling the drain.
Let me see if I got this straight….We, the U.S.A. finally after about 10 years and Billions of dollars caught up with and killed the mass murderer. We all know who that was. Just hearing or saying his name makes me want to throw up so I won’t. OK, having said that its my understanding that he will have to be replaced with another leader. Lets see, if I put an ad in the “Radical Muslim Times“…It would look like this….Wanted, someone to take over as mass murderer baby killer. Must be able to give classes building suicide bombs. Must be willing to strap young psychopathic men and woman with high explosives and send them into markets and schools to blow themselves up…..Its very important that you have no conscience and you must be willing to be put on the most wanted list. You must have Terrorist experience and have killed at least a 1000 innocent people. Consideration will be given to all applicants with no formal education but sheep herder experience will be given. No woman will be allowed to apply but we will allow you to blow yourself up.…..Well, it looks like they found one but it was decided that his position will be temporary. Sort of like a part time mass murderer not a full time killer. Don’t laugh this is true. The position is temporary or until they can find a more insane guy to apply....Here in the U.S. the price of gas is stalled at over $4.00 a gallon. Rampant greed is out of control and Food stamp applications continue to flood in to State offices. Welfare is paying for most people to live and the United States continues to give Billions of dollars in foreign aid to countries that lie to us and hate us…Here in Connecticut, its Mental terrorism at its best….
I’m glad I’m home is the first thing I thought about last night when I seen the ocean from my car. His problems are serious but not serious enough to be hopeless if the right decisions are made. The adult sons and daughters of parents who have taught the right things and set an good example of how life really is at times have to let go and pray that those sons and daughters make the right decisions through their lives. I can only suggest and point in the right direction to the road where there are less pitfalls. It’s a well traveled road and easy to find so there is no excuse for making bad choices. “You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make him drink” comes to mind. My Dad said that to me a long time ago. Last night I went to be with friends and learned that, “Happiness is not a reward it is a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment it is a result.”
Doctors visit went well. If you can call being weighed, poked and prodded and having a needle stuck in your arm a good visit. No results from the blood test so I suppose no news is good news. I told him not to worry if anything was wrong with me because he’d be the first to know. He doesn’t realize that I’m the kind of guy that likes to cure myself. I’m afraid to hear bad news so I try to fix things. In other words, I take care of myself. He offered to give me some any-depression pills but I said no. My feeling bad will pass. Today I’ll take a trip North to visit my son. We will see what is really going on…
Routine doctor visit today. Nothing wrong. Its one of those maintenance visits for blood work and a check up. I don’t feel like there is anything wrong. Maybe I’m a little tense because of Adam’s sickness but this will pass. He seems to be making it through his ordeal. Its all up to him. I found a new way on the back roads to get where I’m going without stop lights or stop signs. It might be a little longer but its worth it. There is no traffic and its absent of the absolute fools that think because they follow me close I’m going to go faster. Hey, all you dumb ass idiots. If I’m going slow and you follow me too close I’m going to slow down. So take a risk and pass me out but wait for that sharp corner or someone coming the other way to pass me…Remember if you have an accident I’m not going to stop. One last note on that. Please go really really fast and remember Its not the crash that kills you. Its that sudden stop. Good luck with that…
Things are not so good in Larry land this morning. Aside from not sleeping well, I am not in a very good mood. The weather here matches my mood. Its gray and the air is muggy and wet. The worst part is its going to stay like this for a few days…That’s not good. One of my sons is not well. I don’t want to say anything but it seems like things are going full circle in his life and that’s that for now. Stay tuned… Also this morning my pals and I getting together to show support for each other. Thusly proving again that are some sane people left here in this country. We are a rare breed and need constant confirmation that we are safe from outside influences and outrageous behavior. I know it seems like I’m writing in code but it has to be this way for a while. The point here is, to get this stuff out there so maybe I’ll feel a little better. The best part of not sleeping well at night is that I can take a nice long nap this afternoon and I’m looking forward to it. Later guys…If its at all possible, have a good one…
Connecticut Library’s need your support!.. Library funding could be cut. Leave a quick message for Gov. Malloy. Call 1 800 406 1527.… State your name…Say you heard that Library funding could be eliminated….Say that your calling to urge Gov. Malloy to maintain funding for the State’s Library‘s…Thank you..
I had to bring the Mustang back to the garage the other day because the front wheel and I don’t know if it was a wheel specify. It was a noise coming from somewhere in the front end. After I had the brake job done it started. I explained the problem to the guy and had the mechanic take the car for a ride. He couldn’t find anything wrong. The noise disappeared…I took it for a ride with him and tried to make it, make the noise but he was right the sound was gone, the noise disappeared. He thought maybe the pads had to be broken in. I don’t know about that. I’m thinking loose lug nuts that mysteriously got tightened when the car was out of my sight. I wish I thought of that and checked before I brought it back. With the trust issues I have lately I’m beginning to wonder. I haven’t heard the noise since so we will see…OK, I am not going nuts. My refrigerator started to make a sound like a bearing was going in the fan motor. Last night and this morning so far the sound was gone. It was running as smooth as silk…I can’t believe it…I’ll say it before you do. I’m not hearing things. I have been bike riding only one time so far this year. The bike is ready to go all clean and tight, oiled and working well. Today its supposed to be cloudy all day but one way or another I’m going down by the ocean and take a ride. I don’t know where yet. Maybe Old Saybrook. I know it will be by the ocean. Have a good one guys….
Ok Just a little bit on this Pakistani lie that no one knew that this monster was there. Believe me, somebody knew! They were paid not to say anything. If they did, they and their whole family would have been very painfully murdered. I start off writing about this backward country and the boredom sets in. However, our mission is over and its time for all our guys to come home and for these people to pay us back all the money we have given them. Oh lost my head there, no one ever pays us back. Our corrupt leaders terrorize us by raising our taxes and skimming off the top then giving what’s left to the corrupt officials over there. Don’t get me started on the graft and corruption in that Hell hole. I am so sick of hearing about the poverty in these places. Those people choose NOT to change because if they do they will be shot. Just look at the riots. They live like they do because they want to. WE cannot force them to change. Hey, all you people that think the U.S. is going to save you. Why don’t you do something about it yourself…Instead of coming over here. Work there to save your own country! What the Hell kind of people leave their homeland? Cowards, thieves and criminals, that’s who…We are saddled with all the misfits and losers from all over the world and its costing each and every one of us a small fortune. We don’t need any more finger nail polishers, convenience stores, gas stations and restaurants. We need American Citizens to start businesses not foreigners. Our kids need jobs to save for college or to help their parents…See what I mean? I get angry and I blame our corrupt Government! They should be setting limits instead of letting the prices of everything go up. A while ago I commented about the anger everywhere. Lately when you walk down the street or go into a store you can feel the intensity of the anger. It feels thick in the air and energized and its on the faces of people that realize they have no future! Believe me! There are some really pissed off people out there. Something is going to happen here in America. Its in the wind…Wait and see.
I had that brake job done yesterday. A word of advice…If you know or even have a feeling that you just maybe might need this kind of word done. Have it checked before anything else is broken. The brake pads are one thing. If something else gets worn out because the pads are bad you are in for a shock at how much this is going to cost you. Don’t put it off. One more thing…Keep a record of your vehicle. Like what and when things were done. Its good information to have but mostly because you can check when work was last done. It’s the only thing that will help you. Remember, I mentioned small talk while waiting for the car to be done. I met a beautiful young girl. She was reading a real paper book with real paper pages and I commented about how that is going to become a rare thing as time goes on. I found out that she’s a writer and is in the process of writing a book. My car was almost ready and I had to leave but good luck to her in the future and I truly mean that….
May 1st and it’s a beautiful day. I think I’ll go to the store and get something special to eat. I haven’t decided what yet. My allergies are acting up and is very annoying. The stuffy nose and sneezing is bad this time of year...Lets just say its worse now than other times…I’m glad summer is just around the corner. I’ve got to bring in the Mustang for a brake job soon. I just haven’t decided where. I have a forty dollar coupon from the Ford dealer but we all know what that means. I just don’t like sitting there making small talk waiting for it to be done. I know its me and this cone of silence I’m going through. Its like I’m standing up against this brick wall and I can’t figure out how to get around it or go over it. I had a little relief Friday when I went to the beach and seen the surfer girls. I actually felt good. Its sort of a, no not depression, it’s a feeling of and I don’t like saying this. Hopelessness. Its like things are confusing and going too fast. Changing before I get to chance to think about it. I realize its probably a control thing but its like making me go faster and think faster but I’m aware of it and I compensate. Maybe it’s the constant compensating that getting to me. Being a responsible person my instinct is to help and comfort but all I find is this wall. When I complain or ask for help no one answers. In fact and I’m not making this up. Everyone I talk to complains but no one anywhere listens.
I just watched the 2011 HBO TV mini-series “Mildred Pierce” with Kate Winslet as Mildred and Evan Rachel Wood as Vita…I can describe it in one word. Great. If you get a chance see this series. ………….A little spoiler here. I have a son who has the same conniving, odd personality as the character Vita. He is an unforgiving, selfish person that will never know what being sensitive is all about. A game player and a user of people that will never have peace of mind. Maybe its not bad now at his age but later in life when he is older the regrets will be painful…The Vita Character reminded me so much of the hate that is part of his soul I just had to share this…Don’t miss this series..
I was watching CNN this morning and I just happened see the unveiling of the reluctant birth certificate. We have so much money in the coffers of the Federal government that the President actually sent a plane to Hawaii to get it. No, he didn’t have it mailed like a normal human being…..I’m yelling here >> HE SENT A FREAKING GOVERNMENT PLANE FROM WASHINGTON TO HAWAII AND BACK TO GET IT!…… Back to CNN…At that point in time they had Mr. Trump on hand from New Hampshire to comment and comment he did. So much so that CNN actually kept him on for a half hour making our President wait. By this time it turned into a Trump press conference and when they finally cut away to the President you could tell The President was shaken and upset because he had to wait and watch and listen too what Mr. Trump was saying. He tried to control himself by smirking like Bush used to do and making a joke about it but you could tell by the way he was talking that he was angry…..He made it to the end of the birthing explanation but couldn’t resist calling Mr. Trump a “Carnival Barker“…Its true, a “Carnival Barker“…The thing is, Mr. Trump was talking about all the things, yelling again here Sorry >> THE PRESIDENT should be talking about and doesn’t…Mr. Trump really hit a sore spot to make him say that…He was really upset because CNN made him wait. Kudos to the director and the folks in the control room who kept Mr. Trump on the air and NOT to cut away to the President. My hat is off to them….Keep up the good work…
I have decided to curtail some of my, “Past the time because I can”, fun driving. What was once a trip around the block for a pleasure ride is over for now, on the theory that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. Here’s the thing. I can afford the gas because I don’t have to go to work. My driving is mostly pleasure driving because I drive that Mustang and there is nothing else like it. I just refuse to give the Bastards any money. From now on I will not spend or buy anything unless I absolutely have too nor will ever buy another car to compensate for the high gas prices. We are being robbed at the gas pump and I actually feel violated and dirty when I leave. Today everything is over priced because of Greed and the control they have over us. They are the ones that should be cowering and begging for our money. What they are doing to the American people is demeaning and thoughtless. Our kids are in three wars around the world helping other countries. We open our doors to the scum of the earth and this is the way we are repaid. I feel sorry for the people who don’t realize this and just go along each day pretending or trusting our Politicians and looking the other way. You max out your credit cards and they love it but then they still hate you. We are spied on, lied too and manipulated by commercials just make you spend your money. The youth of this country is being morally decayed just to get your dollar. People are dieing all over the world because they all want a piece of the American dollar. People now have two jobs just to pay to go to one job. Yet our President and the thieves and cowards in Washington and in our State lie, steal and raise taxes to pay nothing. They do this without care or consideration of how much pain or hardship it causes. They know what is going on and do nothing about it! All of them are corrupt and immoral and they don’t care about you. They just care about themselves. Angry! Who me? I’m not Angry…The best part is I’m not alone and what goes around will come around to these Bastards.
Claudette,
I had the 35mm Cannon with the long lens and filters. The typical bag full of gadgets and stuff. Then digital was born…I thought, if they think I’m going to spend all that money for a Digital camera they are crazy. I went out and bought a cheap digital camera for $49 dollars at Target. I gave away the 35mm film camera to my step daughter because I got sick of looking at it hanging on the door hook. Then I started taking pictures with the cheap camera. Its true most of the pictures you see from the past are with that $49 dollar camera…I did miss the long lens but after a while it didn’t matter. The clarity and auto-focus with all those pixels was missing and it only had a 5x telephoto lens but even that passed after a while. I heard when I went to photography class that a famous photographer took pictures with a cheap camera and I thought, if he could do it so could I and did for years. Its just recently that I bought a small Sony with auto-focus for $150 with a built in 10x telephoto lens. That is what you are seeing now. I do have the fancy big Sony 35mm digital with the long lens but seldom use it. I like the small one. Claudette, you are a great picture taker because you have the timing and patience. Anybody can take a picture is true. Its the picture you see that you have to look twice at because it talks to you. Its like you know what the picture is saying. All good picture takers have that ability. We have a different perception of what we see. We see distance or you could say 3-D if you will. We know what the camera will see and can make it see what we see. Its hard to explain. Like you, every once and a while I get that, the hell with the camera attitude. Its because we lose interest or we are not interested at the moment. Its OK to say you are good at what you do. Its how we test ourselves. We have a gift. The desire to take that magic picture always comes back. You should connect the printer if only to have a scanner. The idea is to have it ready just like the camera you have with you all the time.. I’m going through this dark period now but if I forget to take the camera with me its like something is missing and I think, well I still have my camera phone. The camera becomes part of us. Its how I got the pictures of the low bridge truck. I know those are good shots and there will be more in the future. Its just we have to wait sometimes...I use photo shop for fixing the color like to make the ocean a little bluer sometimes or to crop the picture. Its OK to do that. Claudette, we are good and they can’t take that away from us. We take better pictures by accident than most do on purpose. Keep doing what you are doing its not a competition. I love your pictures. Someone once asked me if I ever won a prize? No, I haven’t but I’ve received some oohs and aahs and given some great seagull pictures to someone who loved those birds. It’s the smile I get in return… At least “that’s the way I see it“….~Lar
Yes this is exactly what I was talking about. sigh......
I am most likely making more of a big deal over these photographs than they are worth. This is me in self depreciating mode.... since I can not see them on here I can not critic them properly.... you know. They are all tucked away in albums and the portfolio.... I had at one point thought that maybe I was good enough to try and do this and then digital came out... and everyone became a photographer. Does this make any sense? With photo shop every one is perfect? It's no longer because one had an eye for it and cool lenses. Which I thought I did. I think that I need, actually I know that I need, some ones input who can be objective.
I gave up. Haven't touched any of my cameras. Digital, 35mm or the medium format in years felt that I was not good enough to. That if I took any photographs, I was just doing what everyone else was doing... Now the bug is back. I know this makes not a bit of sense. There is so many more layers to it also.
Anyhow... You are right, this is just what I was thinking of. You put you negative in it reads it, somehow puts the information on to your computer. Bibbitty bobbity boo..
Sorry, I was so brief this morning……When I say you know the secret I mean the secret is asking God for help and having humility, realizing that we can’t control anything that happens. If things do happen and they will, that are beyond the things we fully understand. We must let it go and its most important that we not ask why. Thanking God at the end of the day for the time we have here and asking God for help getting along with other people…Life is a struggle all over the world but with age comes wisdom. Thank you for your feedback…That is why my memories are treasures….
Today, with the way our environment is changing, the Zoo or Nature Preserves as I prefer to call them should be a safe haven for creatures because its clearly not safe out here for them. Those brave hunters or money grubbing animal killers can’t hunt in a nature preserve or a Zoo. The Aquarium is clearly a safer place for sea creatures because of oil spills…Comment… Reminder, no matter what they say, no matter what excuses they give, no matter how much they lie, no matter how much they show people cleaning birds, no matter how much they say its OK now to visit the Gulf of Mexico and I’m talking about the whole Gulf of Mexico! Its polluted and ruined for the next 1000 years. Sea creatures are dieing every day. Those birds or any of animals they cleaned have ingested enough oil to kill them. Cleaning them was a temporary fix to show the public.
I'm sorry. I don't mean to get you upset...You are a beautiful straight young woman who hasn't found her way. Forgive me but reading between your lines you are very lonely and perhaps a little confused. Its an easy place to be in these days. I think you watch to much television and maybe are crossing over between truth and fantasy. What happens on TV is fake, not real. Its only a show. Reality is real pain and emotion. Life is a daily chore. You desperately need something to do. Something good to energize your life. I love that you play music in your band. To me that's real and you are making someone happy. I feel good that you do that. I don't mean for you to go out and have sex but at this point in your life you need a warm loving boy friend that is a nice person. Someone who will treat you with respect. Jobs are tough to find yes but this should be a number one priority on your list. If only to feel good about yourself. I know you try and I actually feel your frustration but you must keep trying whether you want to or not. Erin, its not easy these days I know this doesn't mean much but you are not alone. Just keep putting one foot in front the other...I'm thinking about you..
don't agree with it. It's just more blame the poor mentality, they're poor so they must be drug addicts, slobs, can't be responsible, etc. When really, they struggle tremendously. I would know, I live on 800 a month and qualify for food stamps and welfare but don't use it because I know this kind of sentiment - the kind you have expressed - will be used to humiliate me at the grocery checkout line and the welfare office. The privileged classes love this kind of shit though. I think citizenship tests should be required to receive any and all services, but not drug tests. Talk about a major waste of money. And for Pell grants too? Good way to shoot the nation in the foot. Without access to higher education, kiss the middle class goodbye, and a future of educated, skilled workers as well. I used Pell grants to finish college, smoked weed most of the time (admittedly though, weed isn't a drug), got scholarships on the way, and I'm graduating with honors.
I say what I say be because the system has been abused for years and its out of control…As far as the Pell grants go. This is being abused by people who don’t even go to school and never will but will continue to apply at different schools to receive check after check. I’ve worked with alcoholics and drug addicts for over 30 years. Most say they started with cigarettes and marijuana which are both lethal and are the hardest to kick. When I see an Illegal buying cigarettes and getting cash back on his welfare card and thinking there goes my annual f--king raise I want beat the shit out of him. It really pisses me off… The rest will say it was Moms diet pills that did them in…We will agree to disagree on that one…I haven’t had a SS raise in 3 years and live on a “fixed” income yet the prices of everything continues to go up…Yesterday $3.89 a gallon for gas…When my rent increases I won’t be too proud to receive food stamps. The illegal’s do it and so will I, if only for spite…I treasure you as a friend and I am very proud of you on your honors. Keep it up you will need later in life…Thank you for the feedback, I love it. Keep it coming…

CLOROX VERSUS PEROXIDE Date: Sat, 12 Mar 2011 09:04:54 -0500 CLOROX VERSUS PEROXIDE Clorox vs. Peroxide VERY interesting and inexpensive. This was written by Becky Ransey of Indiana (a doctor's Wife), and I want to share it with you. She was over recently for coffee and smelled the bleach I was using to clean my toilet and counter tops. This is what she told me. 'I would like to tell you of the benefits of that Plain little ole bottle of 3% peroxide you can get for under $1.00 at any drug store. What does bleach cost? My husband has been in the medical field for over 36 years, And most doctors don't tell you about peroxide. Have you Ever smelled bleach in a doctor's office? NO!!! Why? Because it smells, and it is not healthy! Ask the nurses who work in the doctor's offices, and ask them if they use bleach at home. They are wiser and know better! Did you also know bleach was invented in the late 40's? It's chlorine, folks! And it was used to kill our Troops. Peroxide was invented during WWI in the 20's. It was used to save and help cleanse the needs of our troops and hospitals. Please think about this: 1. Take one capful (the little white cap that comes with the bottle) and hold in your mouth for 10 minutes daily, then spit it out. (I do it when I bathe.) No more canker sores, and your teeth will be whiter without expensive pastes. Use it instead of mouthwash. 2. Let your toothbrushes soak in a cup of peroxide to keep them free of germs. 3. Clean your counters and table tops with peroxide to kill germs and leave a fresh smell. Simply put a little on your dishrag when you wipe, or spray it on the counters. 4. After rinsing off your wooden cutting board, pour peroxide on it to kill salmonella and other bacteria. 5. I had fungus on my feet for years until I sprayed a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and water on them (especially the toes) every night and let dry. 6. Soak any infections or cuts in 3% peroxide for five to ten minutes several times a day. My husband has seen gangrene that would not heal with any medicine but was healed by soaking in peroxide. 7. Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 mixture of peroxide and Water and keep it in every bathroom to disinfect without Harming your septic system like bleach or most other Disinfectants will. 8. Tilt your head back and spray into nostrils with your 50/50 mixture whenever you have a cold, plugged sinus. It will bubble and help to kill the bacteria. Hold for a few minutes, and then blow your nose into a tissue. 9. If you have a terrible toothache and cannot get to a dentist right away, put a capful of 3% peroxide into your mouth and hold it for ten minutes several times a day. The pain will lessen greatly. 10. And of course, if you like a natural look to your hair, spray the 50/50 solution on your wet hair after a shower and comb it through. You will not have the peroxide-burnt blonde hair like the hair dye packages but more natural highlights if your hair is a light brown, reddish, or dirty blonde. It also lightens gradually , so it's not a drastic change. 11. Put half a bottle of peroxide in your bath to help get rid of boils, fungus, or other skin infections. 12. You can also add a cup of peroxide instead of bleach to a load of whites in your laundry to whiten them. If there is blood on clothing, pour it directly on the soiled spot. Let it sit for a minute, then rub it and rinse with cold water. Repeat if necessary. 13. I use peroxide to clean my mirrors. There is no smearing, which is why I love it so much for this. 14. Another place it's great is in the bathroom, if someone has been careless & has peed on the floor around the toilet & it's begun to smell of urine. Just put some peroxide in a spray bottle & spray. In the blink of any eye all the smell will be gone & the bacteria eliminated! I could go on and on. It is a little brown bottle no home should be without! With prices of most necessities rising, I'm glad there's a way to save tons of money in such a simple, healthy manner! This information really woke me up. I hope you gain something from it, too. Pass it on! Clorox vs. peroxide VERY interesting and inexpensive.

Wow, I’m glad you got all that off your chest…Baby, as you get older the less and less you will actually want to be involved in the hum-drum of the Holidays. Its not the way it was and it will never be. We had it the best. Those dinners we made for Thanksgiving will never be the same, we did it the best and have the memories to prove it. Don’t try to make it like it was, it’s a waste of time. Christmas again, we had the best. People today just have no time for tradition. They know nothing of the Baby Jesus. They don’t know what that is. When we gave a gift to someone it meant something. The only thoughts we had were to make someone genuinely happy. Greed was not the modification. I hate, I literally hate what its become…The stores, black Friday. Its all bait and gimmicks to get people in the stores to max out their credit cards. People are so blind with greed they can’t see the marked up prices and will buy things for themselves and spend money they haven’t got for gifts that no one cares about. Now more stores are open on Thanksgiving and they want to sell booze on Sundays. Its all about greed and taking your money. I will not be called a consumer. Its demeaning and degrading. I only buy what I need, when I need it and only if I need it.… I will never ever pay for the debt this country is in or spent so someone can fatten their bank account so they can say they have more money than the next person. Today its all about the ability to take your money so they can say they did. They lie, cheat and steal in Washington and it goes on from coast to coast in every State. Illinois has been notorious for that for years. You should know that. Welfare is out of control and you are paying for all those illegal’s that are working those minimum wage jobs, yes, the jobs the high school kids should have but the illegal’s have to qualify for medical and welfare money from the State. I am hearing talk now about your Social Security. As it is, the Seniors have not had a cost of living adjustment in 3 years. Think about that! When can you retire? Better look into it…I think you will be working till your 68 or 70. Believe me you won’t want to do that. Its really bad out there…You can take that to the bank. Its about all you will be able to take. Thank you for your nice long letter….I love it…

Pathetic, hmmm, that’s not a very good choice of words I would say Pig but its interesting how you resort to name calling. So much for true love, friendship and kindness. Yes, I have been blessed all my life to have had the opportunity for many affairs and friendly relationships with some stunningly beautiful woman. I have to say some of my exploits are the envy of many men. That has been my choice. Its also been the choice of some very young and very attractive young woman to give me the pleasure of giving them pleasure. I would NOT change a thing. I am honest and happy with what I do, will do and did. I am single on purpose and would not have any other way…I asked you THREE (3) times not say anything on Facebook yet you persisted to the point where I had no choice but to unfriend you. I can take all the criticism you can muster and believe me as a writer, I have been criticized by the best. However, I will not tolerate name calling. Criticize me all you want but do it in an EM. If you call me names I will delete it. Its none of anybody’s business on Facebook what your opinion is because its only an opinion. To comment, EM or not…I don’t care….

The Giants would have won yesterday if they had someone who could throw the ball to right person. Had an offensive line that could protect the quarterback. Had a running back that wouldn’t lose the ball. Had a receiver who could catch a pass. Had defenders who could make a tackle. Had an offensive coach who could send in the right plays. If the game last week was the worst exposition of professional football I have ever seen, the game yesterday was pathetic and predictable…I would fine them for being a bunch of incompetents and trying to get those big salaries under false precedence’s and trying to impersonate real football players…
Over heard in the Giant locker room … Don’t f--k this up like you did last week…
I have been watching the Giants play football for years. This game yesterday, if you can call it that was the worse exposition of professional football I have ever seen. It was a embarrassing demonstration of poor coaching and mistakes. It could not have been worse. There is no excuse for the so-called players but most of all the coaches. If I was an owner I would forfeit the rest of the season. To lose a home game like they did at this point in the season is intolerable….
What a nice surprise...Show you some love? Hmmm you know I Love you….and I am doing very well. How about you?...I think its amazing how the people here have the patience to do this. Upload movies and TV shows. I didn't realize there was a forum like this. As soon as I figure out it works I'll be there. Thank you for your nice words....Thank you everybody for the time you take to do this...I and I'm sure everyone appreciates what you do....
Violence stimulates the copycats and the Psychopaths into thinking that they can get away with the things they see on TV or in the movies because they think they are smarter. Did you notice that lately they are putting the most insane things on the TV news? They do this so people will generate more news.
Question two. In a sense they are reshaping cultural values. The young people of today are, for the most part not being taught at home or in school. Look at the epidemic of bullying lately. Years ago they learned by limit setting and their parents example. Today it’s the drug addict movie star or some other twisted thing on Facebook or YouTube. They see these things and guess what? Right, they are on the news and you are

Everyone has 2 personalities. We just have to look, for him or her. Sometimes we do things. For example one of the things I do or did, is say things that don’t mean. Wise guy comments, small stuff.

The town would be unrecognizable to anyone who lived there 30....40.....50 years ago or more. Tockville area used to be a great place to live and raise a family. The decline began and accelerated quickly in the early 90s or so. Criminals......drug and sex abusers......and underachieving lowlifes have replaced former residents who have long since passed away or moved out of the area bc they saw the area heading south quickly.
I remember very a long time ago it was, I think never shoot an unarmed man. Even in the movies the cops "winged" him. Remember that? Today's "cops" are not cops in the sense of the word. They are mostly ex-military who were taught to "shoot to kill" and if they didn't they are not here to talk about it. There are very few, if any real police "Cops" like in the past.. However I still go by the rule my wonderful Dad taught me when I was very young. He said, "Never mess with a guy that carries a gun and a club". That rule still applys even more so now.. I don't think the Dad's of today teach their kids much of anything so I don't expect things to change much in the future..
We have entire generations of stepping stone psych drugs like Adderall, Ritalin, and the list keeps growing. Now legal Marijuana is in the picture. I am convinced that there's a significant test and correlation between these drugs and so many of the episodes we have seen over the years. It's too easy to prescribe these ADD drugs and diagnose every undisciplined kid as having a deficit or learning disorder. Instead of good discipline and parenting, we reach for the Med X. Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. Pharmaceuticals don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or who dies...There is no “Cure” for addiction. Once you stop using drugs or alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The progression of the addiction disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to get better. Addiction is a disease like Cancer, or Sugar Diabetes. There is no cure.
You knew this was going to happen, didn't you. Next metal detectors and paid security to search you. Go on your first date with that beautiful girl and they get to touch her in those tender places before you. They get to look at her, here and there or up and down and check her out for her Dad's .357 Magnum. Searching your kids before the Walt Disney movie and charge you $20 a pop to do it.. Nice and guess what? Morons will still go to the movies..
Too many people to enjoy yourself. You will never be able to get into a State beach. All the others are private and they do have Security guards. You might get shot in a city. Its not safe. Lakes are too crowded and mostly private. Parks crowded. If you had the money for a resort you wouldn't be reading this... Save your money because the way they are stealing it now you are going need it later in life. Stay off Connecticut's highways they are all stalled with accidents or repaving for hours.. Best bet, go to a Library use the free internet, its air conditioned..
The war is closing in around us... I was talking to someone today who told me that her friends car had a bullet hole in it..
News update….. Gov. Danielle Molly’s office today announced that because of all the accidents and death on Connecticut’s highways single passenger cars will no longer be allowed. Effective immediately, only cars with 3 passengers. One must be a Lawyer and one an undocumented immigrant with no license. The odd and even day laws be in effect. He said that “Speed limits will be increased to 150 MPH” because he feels that even the people that think they are important need to be where they are going to make money. The State of cannot afford any State police presence so drivers can follow close and weave in and out of traffic and go as fast as they want.
Discontinue Senior tax exemptions and raise taxes higher as soon as possible. Send Eviction notices every 30 days.. Seniors are only a burden on society.. Install toll-booths on all streets entering and leaving. That should solve the problem. Then you will be able to give raises to all the Lawyers and Politicians.
A Wise Man said, that the only way to solve the refugee migrant problem that is overwhelming Europe now, is to [eliminate] the source that is causing it, [BUT], the Europeans are reluctant to do that out of fear of the ISIL terrorists? .. Never in the history of the world, has such a small group of people [terrorists] conquered so much territory and enslaved so many people, and forcing so many millions of displaced refugee homeless migrants trying to escape, to flee for the safety of Europe? As long as the terrorists control the lands of their homes and country, those displaced homeless migrants have no place to return too, [SO], the only solution is for some country or countries to get enough courage to fight and defeat the terrorists and take back their homes and countries, so they can return home? .. Dropping a few bombs on them just won't do? .. Somebody has to eliminate the source [terrorists] and wars, that's causing the refugee migrants to flee? .. it's not rocket science? .. [any halfway intelligent person would know that?]
Somehow, someway this is about more money for Lawyers. Now in Connecticut you can kill all the cops you want, lots of kids and politician's and if you are convicted you get a free ride to State prison with free room and board and an Internet connection. If you are really good in 20 years or so some bleeding heart will let you out to enjoy the rest of your life. Mad Dog Taborski would roll over in his grave if he knew this… Score Terrorists 1 ~ Hard working honest people 0
You sad pathetic addle-minded fool… You would think with your short life expectancy you would find something better to do with your time… Like finish Grammar school or find out who your real parents are…
If I could but poison your mind for only a second to prompt you send me that note, I have done my job..
In New York state, the number of landline subscribers has fallen by 55 percent since the year 2000.
New Jersey landline subscribers have decreased by 50 percent.
Similar trends exist Down Under, where industry analysts expect 1.4 million Aussies to cancel their landlines by the end of 2008. [source: Associated Press, Cauley, Woolrich].
Was once the best Quarterback in the league...He's dishonest! He lied and cheated during an NFL championship game. He deceived the fans. They won or did they win? His reputation is ruined.. His career the way it was is over… The Hall of Fame is not in the picture anymore! Lawyers are running his life and you know what kind of a bill he will get for that! Tom "who" is his new name.. Friends? What friends.. He looks say and depressed. That is what the artist was going for….. Gee, I wonder why???

Seventy years after the first atomic explosion lit up the New Mexican desert and nearly 25 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, both Russia and the United States retain nuclear postures from the darkest days of their rivalry. There are almost 16,000 nuclear weapons still in the world today, and the U.S. and Russia possess 94 percent of them. Worse, 1,800 of these Russian and American weapons sit atop missiles on hair-trigger alert.
Being in debt to a drug dealer is like having a death wish. They will kill you if you don't pay. They have special people that do this job and seldom, if ever get caught.. This killing will never stop no matter how much you talk about it or dramatize it.. Its actually getting pretty boring..
At first shutting off the TV was difficult. Its been a really long time now, 2 years, or 3 years but its nice not to know who is a Star or not a Star. I have no idea now who or what these people do. All the news or information I get is in the form of a EM and its my choice what I want to see. I have literately no mind clutter.. On this phone thing. If you have something for a long time it becomes a habit just to know its there whether it rings or not. The bottom line is I don't miss now. At first there was this "what if' feeling but now its a "glad it gone feeling". That black thing sitting on my desk was like an infection that wouldn't go away filled with blocked numbers like the puss of what this society really is all about. Its been amputated from my quiet life and now its time to move on.. Yes its time to change and I am willingly letting it happen.
He cheated... What kind of example is he setting for the youth of America with this behavior? The more he fights this the worse it gets. The NFL did the right thing only Brady should be banned from the Hall of Fame and the fine should have been 2 million dollars and suspension without pay for ALL of the games of next season. Robert Kraft should be fined 10 million dollars for not doing anything about the cheating...He didn't get to be a Billionaire by being honest....
When questioned by one of those entertainment shows a few years ago about their drug use, didn't R&B singer Bobby Brown say he got only "good" drugs for himself and Whitney? “From a dealer he could trust”? At the time his wife Whitney looked googly-eyed high during the interview. Now, it’s a few years later and I think he literally killed his wife and daughter with those "Good" drugs... We all know with kids, its learn by example. My Dad always said "Monkey see monkey do" Now Mom and Daughter are dead before their time by overdosing on those "Good Drugs"…
The rapids in the Suffield part of the river was a damn to flow water into the Canal. The river did have rapids down further because it was very shallow from Suffield to the Dexter paper mill in Windsor locks...Winters, storms and water flow have reduced the damn to what seems to be rapids. There was also a wooden bridge down stream from those rapids that crossed over into Enfield.. Look very carefully and you will still see the piers from that bridge...The labor that dug the canal by hand were the Irish immigrants. Some died while working on the canal and were buried in graves along side the canal.. Its like the Panama canal only built on a much smaller scale...Speaking of Washington.. In the commuter parking lot next to Rt. 91 is a plaque where there was once a house that Mr. Washington stayed over night..
Once you stop drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The progression of the addiction disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to get better. Alcoholism is a disease like Cancer, or Sugar Diabetes. There is no cure.

Its officially done. My land line is gone. For the first time in many years I am not connected or in this case subjected to a land line. Its a good feeling not to have to pay a bill to and be verbally abused by a continuous flow of phone solicitors. These days when you have a land line you become a prisoner in you own home by being harassed and continuously bothered by a non-person trying to sell you something.. AT&T was my company for years until it was taken over by something called “Frontier“. Both phone company’s are now at the point where the customer has become a consumer, in other words a modern clone or human robot. Its feels really good now not to have a TV or a phone. My mind is my own again.
The way societies are divided now. Its like we are living life in this order… The rich and poor…The rich, who seem like they are totally oblivious to your problems and drive around in their new luxury cars and the poor who barely scrape along on with a junky car, a menial job and welfare or no job at all. Its like there is no middle class. The rich fly around in their corporate jets and the poor,

if they lucky enough to get a loan will only have enough money to be almost stripped searched before they get on a expensive crowded passenger jet. Essentially there are no slaves but the rich who are catered to and waited on and the people who do it. No, they are not called “Slaves” but think about it? We haven't really changed that much have we?
I don’t know but I think it all started with Benedict Arnold, a name synonymous with being a traitor or maybe naming a minor league baseball stadium after a corrupt U.S. Senator. Norwich has slowly been going downhill for many years. Which was once called the Rose City is now just your run of the mill Casino town with all the empty homes, the classic abandoned buildings and the drug dealers and the bad element running the streets. We can complain and argue but its too late. Change along with the corruption will always be there. Remember, they know what’s good for the city and you.. We can only sit by being an occasional thorn in their side reminding them we are watching. Believe me, they don’t care Now it’s a dead Rose City. . .
Can't get this Cosby thing out of my mind. When I worked at Bradley Airport I met him passing through the Terminal building going on my daily chores as Airport Electrician. Of all the so-called recognizable actors and actresses I have met he was the most aloof. During those years I have met my share of entertainers from Liberace, Sugar Ray Leonard and Robert Ryan just to mention a few.. Gene Pitney and I had coffee together in the coffee shop every time he traveled the world...
I would say that Cosby's attitude at the time was stand offish. Like I'm better than you. All those other famous people were very social and shook my hand with a big smile saying something nice.. I had no idea Cosby was a predator that preyed on very young white actresses for oral sex. At that point in American history 60s, 70s, that was really not the thing to do. I guess being a token black actor at the time had its advantages... I think its behavior like this that sets a bad example for everyone not just black youth. They will continue to be called a "they" and not a "we" ... if behavior like this continues... I know that at the time I did not like him for treating me like he did. I remember seeing him a few times getting into a Limo on the lower level. And so again what goes around comes around. As it turns out, all he is a perverted dirty old man who used his popularity at the time and took advantage, embarrassed and hurt young woman. He got caught with his pants down... You could have at least said hello to me, Billy...
Pedro needs to tell his constituents Obamacare does not pay for street drugs. And that street drug dealers will kill you if you don’t pay.

I have been noticing in Norwich that in certain places were not busy like in the days past.. It seems the economy is not as good as they say it is. Or the casino that was supposed to help bolster the Norwich Connecticut area economy isn’t quite working the way the Greedy Indians and the so-called Honest Politicians said it would. I never believed those bastards. It looks like they took the money and ran. Norwich is dieing fast and crime is, well you know what I mean. The once beautiful Marina is closed and whole sections of the city are dieing. The low life predators are alive and well and slinking around in the dark corners. Typical of any casino town. Oh well, I could go on but what’s the point. Most of the old guard is gone and replaced by the greedy dishonest element and I fear there is no turning back. Glitz, high crime and murder are accepted as every day normalcy. Society and really caring have been desensitized to the point where murder and rape are just things that happen. Kinda like, OK, lets find something more horrific to open the evening news with. Save the boring stuff for later. I always think of the pain and anguish a family member feels when they learn later that the victim of that rape or murder was their grandson or granddaughter. Like I said what’s the point. The plans made for Norwich a few years ago are gone now with the promises of a long prosperous future now replaced by the drab and dangerous areas. Norwich was once called the Rose City…..Now its, The Dieing Rose city…..
You can take a Thousand Confederate flags down. There is a statue of a war hero on almost every street corner and in every town hall, libraries and on most front lawns. The Confederate flag is a symbol of Southern heritage and of the courage that their ancestors had during the Civil War and that will never change. The South is synonymous with the fight with the North.
“Each day means a new twenty-four hours. Each day means everything's possible again. You live in the moment, you die in the moment, you take it all one day at a time.”
When will Obama put the Military in the streets of American cities? Politicians with their rhetorical chatter only seem to pacify the gullible for one more day. Reality is, they have absolutely no idea what to do and the war in the United States continues to escalate. Each day the body count continues to rise around the country and in the cities. More and more innocent people and children are being shot in the streets. Could it be drug deals gone bad, could it be bigotry? Could it be suppressed anger and hatred towards our Lawmakers and Politicians? Fire fights are erupting and gun shots are ringing out in the city streets. Doctors and nurses are kept busy as emergency rooms are being filled with the dead and wounded. Its like the Revolution and Anarchy in the 60s and 70s with Viet Nam and the Hippy drug culture. Is it because of Muslim Terrorists and Unhappy Blacks and their drug culture. Except now there is a huge drug addiction problem compounded with Pharmaceuticals and Alcoholism. All those are a trigger for anger, fear and paranoia.
Violence stimulates the copycats and the Psychopaths into thinking that they can get away with the things they see on TV or in the movies because they think they are smarter. Did you notice that lately they are putting the most insane things on the TV news? They do this so people will generate more news.
In a sense they are reshaping cultural values. The young people of today are, for the most part not being taught at home or in school. Look at the epidemic of bullying lately. Years ago they learned by limit setting and their parents example. Today it’s the drug addict movie star or some other twisted thing on Facebook or YouTube. They see these things and guess what? Right, they are on the news and you are saying. ”Awww isn’t that a shame…
Lately I've found myself using the word Bastard or Bastards...I don't swear when I post but at times I can't think of a more descriptive word to describe some of the people, if you can call them that, that I write about. I don't like name calling and was taught by my parents not to call people names and I don't...Years ago the definition of a Bastard was a child born out of wedlock and was called, when describing this event was, he or she is the Bastard son or daughter of so and so. Whether or not that was said out of malice was what tone of voice you used.
The bottom line here is that I have my own definition for the word Bastard. To me a Bastard is someone who would intentionally run over any confused defenseless creature on the road. A Bastard is any hunter that kills creatures in the forest or woods for sport. And lastly, we all are familiar with someone who betrays the public trust and would steal money from people who can't afford to eat or pay their bills. The politician who does this is obviously a Bastard that didn't have parents who taught him or her about honesty. They have also been described as scum, lowlife or a bottom feeder...I prefer Bastards...

Hi, I hope you don’t mind that I friended you. I’ve been using POGO on and off since 2005 and through the years the friends I had in the past have gone elsewhere or, well I think you know what I mean. I haven’t updated my profile and I’m actually 76 years old. I would never say bad or negative things and wouldn’t hurt a fly. I thought I would friend some pretty ladies around my age within my token range just to have someone to say hi too when I go to a room. Thank you for understanding.
Effective immediately the new country wide posted State highway speed will be 150 mph. Back roads speeds will be increased from 30 to 100 mph. Because of driver licenses being issued to all illegal immigrants driving will only be permitted on odd or even days. Trucks will only be able to use the highways on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Your license plate number will be used to determine if its your day to drive. If caught driving on the wrong day a one year mandatory jail sentence and a $10,000 dollar fine will be issued. Drones will be flying over highways and cameras installed on the highways and roads will issue the fine to be sent in your mail. The computer that runs your car will shut off automatically and the car will stall. Towing charges by the State and Government will be $5000.
I know what you can do! Ban the Confederate flag and while you are at it take down the thousands of statues and pictures of all the Confederate war heroes on and in every town hall, road and intersection and while you are at it cover up the cemetery's in every State and build Walmart‘s on top of them. And if I remember right the South Carolina State Police uniforms are Confederate Gray. You better change the uniform color… Racism is alive and well in America and its never going to go away...
I'm still recovering from my trip. Wow, talk about motel flashbacks. You don't realize what it does to you when those miles add up like that.. Its like you don't have time to think things through. I spent the day yesterday doing preventive maintenance on the Mustang. Oil change and the Summer cleaning of the K&N air filter. Next its a tire rotation and check the front end alignment with a possibility of new front shocks.. Not today though, gonna take a break.
I get E Mail and updates from most of the local newspaper news or local channel headline news. I do this because I don't watch television news. Sometimes but very rarely I watch sports on TV.....After getting these alerts for a while I discovered its the same news every day...Its exactly the same, I couldn't believe it...Its always all about the most outrageous things people do to each other, their pets, wives, kids or mothers and fathers...The question is, do we really need to know these very disturbing things? I noticed the only thing different is the names and the towns and cities they come from. It never changes it just goes and on and on. Why are people acting out with this kind of behavior you may ask?
Yes, there are some sick people but the United States is not a happy place and it hasn't been for a long time. The trigger is things are changing faster than people can cope...Its the Trillions of dollars of National Debt but its mostly the hurtfully high gas prices. Do you really know how much a Trillion of anything is let alone a Billion? Paying $4.00 a gallon for something worth maybe .50 cents a gallon, if that. American Politicians will not say a word about that...Why?.. Because Washington with all its lawyer manipulation and legal corruption in the form of donations from oil company's and God only knows who else, that's why. Its because of greed and self interest and if they can't steal it they just legalize it and take it anyway. That's why. We are at a point where I don't have to prove anything saying what I say. Just look around you! The proof is everywhere.
Of coarse then there are the decaying morals and family values of the younger generation. Think about that son and daughter you may have or your little niece and nephew. There are young kids somewhere in your family. If you don't have any, think about your friends son and daughter. Who will they be having sex with in say, 2 years, 5 years or 10 years? Well, actually the question should be how many guys will she be having sex with? How many young girls will he be having sex with?...That TV in your house is programming them constantly. Its always saying everybody does it, why not you? Over and over It is saying to your kids you can't have real fun unless you drink alcohol and use drugs. Do you think it can't happen to your son and your daughter? Wanna bet? Take the time to check and see what they are doing on that laptop you bought for them for school...
And lastly, Government spending and Welfare are out of control The Foreign aid alone is outrageous.. Bail outs? You have got to be kidding, The Banks and the Stock Market have very few rules. What rules they have if you can call them that, have been stretched to the limit. A Lawyer will just manipulate the words to fix the problem. No one will take responsibility. No one will make the tough decisions. What I just wrote here just scratches the surface. They just talk, talk, and more talk. Its all about those deals and with who..You just pay and pay. It cannot continue. Lines have to be drawn. It can't last. Something is going to happen. The United States government is in serious trouble. Something has to give...Do you remember when stories ended with, "And they lived happily ever after"? Well, ...... "That will never happen now...
Dad, I will always remember the things you taught me, the wonderful example you set and the priceless things you said to me. A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you and think, what would my Dad do in a situation this? It never fails I always make good choices when I do that.. It was an honor and a pleasure to take care of you and "Watch over you" in your last days like you took care of me.. I really miss you Dad... Happy Fathers Day.... I love you.....
You pathetic addle-minded fool… You would think with your short life expectancy you would find something better to do with your time… Like finish Grammar school or find out who your real parents are…
Dear Lisa,
I am so sorry for my abrupt departure the other day. The heat combined with being tired did not help. After being there for a few days with the all bad drivers, bad tasting water and foul air I knew it was a place Cathy nor I could be. Thank you for the use of the condo and the air conditioning. We didn’t expect the conditions would be as bad as they are. Years ago the place for retirement was Florida, now its just too overcrowded. I know I surprised you by leaving like I did and for that I am truly sorry. I hope you will forgive us.. Later in the week after scouting around the East coast for a while I came across a quaint little old town called Manning South Carolina. It has a serine peaceful feeling and reasonable prices.. I would describe it easy living.. Again I am deeply sorry. I made the decision to leave so don’t blame Cathy..
Hopefully still your friend, Larry

I miss you too…
Fast food ... Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don't waste anything. You could mention that they bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Mention the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig scream? Fast food again ...
That was years ago and now with the way they mass produce chicken, cattle and pigs and the way they slaughter them I will never eat meat again. The Beef and Pigs are injected with growth hormones to mass produce them. The same thing with Chickens. They are locked in small cage's suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. The oceans are poisoned with Mercury. Remember the Mercury warnings? They don’t tell you that anymore. Its worse now. Now its oil, radiation and what ever else they dump in the ocean. Don’t you ever believe that they care because they don’t. Its all about their profit margin. Remember when you could trust the producers of food. Well don’t! Look at all the over weight people from eating McDonald’s, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Wendy’s limping around this country. Believe me, No one cares!
Relocating Wild Animals
Not as humane as you might think
Many people believe that it is more humane to relocate problem wildlife than to kill the offending animal. Click For Euthanasia Chambers While on its face, this idea seems to make sense. Taking the animal and putting him back into the woods, "where he belongs" sounds reasonable.
Unfortunately for the animal, relocation has a number of bad side effects.
1. Relocated animals must find new food sources in an unfamiliar environment.
2. Relocated animals must find new shelter in an unfamiliar environment. In the winter time, relocated wildlife have precious little time to find shelter.
3. Relocated animals must do number 1 and 2 above while avoiding predators. It must also do those tasks before weather, food and water conditions take their toll.
4. Your relocation may result in the deaths of young through starvation that have now lost their mother from your relocating her away from her young.
5. Relocating animals raises the risk of relocating a disease like rabies to new and uninfected locales. Like what happened with the Mid Atlantic Rabies Outbreak.
6. It may also be illegal in your state. Presently, Massachusetts, Connecticut and possibly others have some sort of ban on the translocation of wildlife.
In a widely anticipated statement on the environment, Pope Francis blames global warming on human activity and says environmental degradation has reached a "breaking point."
The statement, called an encyclical, is a letter from Pope Francis to 1.2 billion Catholics around the world. But the Pope has said his message is addressed to "every person living on this planet" and is timed to influence several key environmental summits scheduled for later this year.
While calling for a moral response to climate change and other ecological issues, the Pope says "our common home" is plagued by myriad problems, from fossil fuels to a culture of indifference and "information overload."

As far back as I can remember my dad always wore a hat. He never wore it in a Church a restaurant or in the house like they do today but only to work and when he was outside. I remember him taking off his hat when he went into a building. I remember him tipping his hat to the ladies...He was a very respectful and courteous... In the winter he wore a Navy pea-cap. It was around the time of World War two and I remember he said he was exempt from the Military. He told me, instead of the Military and because of our family, he called us "dependents" and at that time they only drafting single guys...So he worked in a place called the Springfield Armory in Massachusetts where they made guns for “World War Two“. He was a Machinist. ... My uncle, my moms brother, his name was Frank He was in the Navy building and repairing airbases on those islands in the Pacific. He was in what they called the “Navy Seabees“. He told me he "drove a bulldozer"..I remember he gave my dad a Navy pea hat and a pea-coat for the winter. He gave me a clock that he said, "came out of a Navy plane that crashed". They called it a, pea coat and pea hat because of the material it was made of. I often wondered what the “P” meant…In the summer my dad wore a baseball hat. He was a great baseball player. He played third base on the town baseball team. The name of the team was the "Kettle Brook Team". It was named after a once popular fishing brook in our town. I think its a swamp now by the Congregational Church on Main St....The uniforms they wore were like the Yankee pin stripes but my dad was always a Red Sox fan. He got to see them win a World Series before he died. He was happy about that. My son Adam even put a Red Sox hat in his coffin. He really would have liked that.
I especially remember one summer afternoon many years ago when they were playing baseball at the local ballpark near St. Mary's school in Windsor Locks Connecticut. Dad told me that the famous "Babe Ruth" and the Yankee baseball team visited the park while they were on some kind of tour. I remember one time at a game when I was standing near the fence with my fingers holding the fence and he came over and told me to never hold the fence like that because a foul ball might hit my fingers. I will never forget that. To this day I will never lace my fingers in a Chain link fence.....He always took care of me...He use to say to Mom to "Keep an eye on me" or "Watch over me" all the time. I was watching a game one afternoon when the batter hit a line drive, a hot grounder, a one bouncer to him at third base and he caught the ball and threw it from deep in the hole to first base and got the runner out...Everybody in the grandstand cheered. I didn’t know how important that was at the time but he was very excited when he explained it to me. His nick name was “Pap the Rooster”. All the players had nick names. From that moment on my Dad had the nick name "Pap". No one ever called him Joe which was his real name. I have no idea what that means but I think, “Rooster” is a term for a baseball infielder. I was only a little kid and very young but I remember that. When he was older and done playing baseball he wore a golf hat. For years he played golf all summer long at the "Copper Hill Country Club" in East Granby with my uncles and his friends. In the winter he went bowling. First at Blanch's lanes on Grove St. then at the "Villa Rose" on Spring St. in Windsor Locks on Tuesday and Thursday nights. I went with him because my Mom worked and I remember helping the owner of the bowling alley set up the pins. They said were “short handed”. I was called "the pin boy" and they paid me 6 cents a string...The bowling pins were called “Duck-Pins“. I remember the hat he had at the time with a bowling pin logo on it…On Sundays he wore a fedora to church like the one Humphrey Bogart wore in the movies. I have a picture of me and my Dad all dressed up for Church and we both had a fedora on. It looked like I was 6 or 7 years old. .
This is just another attempt to make Clones out of human beings and being one step closer to the doom of the human race. Its another brainwashing tool. Just wait till the advertising agency's get a hold of this. Hey, if we can make them forget they will do the same thing over and over and spend more money.
Our minds were meant to remember, to live and learn by our mistakes so we wouldn't do the same thing over and over. We need to laugh at our silly mistakes or set an example for the young by the bad ones. If this so-called scientist could create a method to eliminate all the murderers, thieves and psychopaths from society and the world, then I would agree with him... You absolutely NEED to remember the things you did in the past, its human nature. Like this guy really needs to remember to stop watching the Si-Fi channel. I'm sure I'll be able to remember that....
I’d like to keep all my memories…The happy ones are like personal treasures that I look back on with pleasure. The bad memories fade away but they are mostly the mistakes I made getting the good ones…
“Middle Names”
Do people still have middle names? I was named after my Dad. At the time that is how they said it. “To be named after“….. It was a tradition in families years ago to be named after a family member.. For example my first name is Lawrence. I was named after my uncle who died in drowning accident when he was 13.. The name lives on and I‘m proud of that.…. My second name is Joseph after my Dad. My third name is Charles after my Grandfather who died at a young age. He was 50. That is a Confirmation name. That is a Catholic thing. Get it so far? When my kids were born we were running out of names we thought we would be different and pick the names.. It was OK because we named them after Saints. My number one son is named Stephen. His middle name is, guess what? Right, Lawrence after me. I picked those names… Stephen Lawrence … My number two son is named David and his middle name is John. John is after my wife’s brother. David John. My wife picked those names.. Number three son is named Adam I picked Adam and she picked Michael because I picked the first one. Adam Michael.. I think we did a good job and thought of some outstanding names… My wife’s name was Ann and her middle name was Loraine and I’ll bet a lot a people didn’t know that..
It started for me when my Dad took me to all the Windsor Locks Parades. Then I was in the Cub Scouts Mrs. Ditto from Spring St. was our leader. Then the Boy Scouts. Then the Army National Guard. Today I am so grateful to have all those wonderful memories.. I'm glad to be the age I am. Its so much different to what we have become.
After the feeling of "I got away it" will come the vision of the young girl he might have been responsible for killing 2 years ago.. Her life will be on his conscience till the day he dies.. She will haunt him…
Buying a house means you need to save money each month to pay your Taxes every year.. You need a really good job to do that.. Then there is Insurance, trash pick up, town meetings to vote for increases and raises for the politicians who are in charge of your future. Make sure you check who your neighbors are and where the schools are. If you fail in any of these or lose your job they will take it away from you because its not really yours in the first place... If you buy you will understand what that means...
Dog is God spelled backwards...
You don’t find ways 2 provide value across the whole bakeshop by raising prices for day old bread and pastry?
Why did you raise the price of day old bakery goods at the Groton Ct. store? It hurts seniors looking for an affordable treat!
A win by cheating is still a win even if the game is tainted with lies and deception.. The history book, if there is such a thing anymore will say "controversial". The NFL did the right thing.. The fine should have been 2 million for Brady and suspension of the last 5 games of next season. Robert Kraft should be fined 10 million dollars for not doing anything about the cheating...He didn't get to be a Billionaire by being honest.... Oh and by the way the GIANTS beat them and didn't have to cheat...
By the people and for the people is gone and in the past. Now its profits over people. To whom it may concern. The people of Norwich don’t care about those 200,000 visitors? Therere too many “visitors” driving through the city now…All of a sudden “Surprise” lets cut the trees down because we don’t care what people say.. Remember! “Profits over People”. True, I don’t live in Norwich now but I did in the past for a very long time.. I moved to take care of my parents in their last years but mostly because the “City Fathers” allowed them to build that horrible casino. These days, once or twice a week only because of its beauty I return, to walk or ride my bike in Mohegan park. However everything must change. The wonderful children’s Zoo is gone. Taftville is a ghost town, downtown is starting to accumulate empty buildings and the Marina is not what it used to be… Now that beautiful serine park is slowly being ruined because of greed and legal corruption. Hey, the old school is disappearing why should they care? The feelings of the neighbors around park don’t count. The flagrant abuse of power and the not caring is evident. If I hurt anyone with my words here, it was my intention. Now you know how I feel…
Dad, I will always remember the things you taught me, the wonderful example you set and the priceless things you said to me. A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you and think, what would my Dad do in a situation this? It never fails, I always make good choices when I do that.. It was an honor and a pleasure to take care of you and "Watch over you" in your last days like you took care of me.. I really miss you Dad... Happy Fathers Day.... I love you.....
The real world is jobs at Burger King, Walmart and Stop and Shop. McDonald's is nice for work as well as Starbucks.. Of coarse there is Filines or Home Depot for a step up... but they will be closing soon.. There is always Kentucky Fried Chicken. Better hurry at Walmart and Stop and Shop they are eliminating cashiers in favor of check out computers. Also be careful because there are a lot of Immigrants, illegals and blacks working at these places and since they can't discriminate. Its first come first served. No pun intended. I wouldn’t look forward to paying back the student loan any time soon.. They don't care what kind of education you have...My advice is, don't give away that bedroom at your parents house yet. You will be needing it..
In this society drugs and pills become part of you and without them your on a sinking ship and its only a matter of time. Your on a sinking ship anyway because the pills they don't use they flush and the results end up it the environment and drinking water. Well folks hang in there because its going to get bumpy……Stay tuned….
Plenty of social atmosphere at Burger King, Walmart and Stop and Shop. McDonald's is nice for socialization as well as Starbucks.. Of coarse there is Filines or Home Depot for a step up.. There is always Kentucky Fried Chicken. Better hurry at Walmart and Stop and Shop they are eliminating Cashiers.. Be careful because there are a lot of illegals and blacks working there and they can't discriminate.
Why are you cutting trees in Mohegan Park? Why are you making it confusing for some people to post things like this? Who is making money by cutting trees? What is the name of the person who thought of cutting trees in the park? YOU ARE RUINING A VERY BEAUTIFUL PLACE!!!!!!!! Profit over People!!!

A light year is you traveling at 186,000 miles a second for a year…That Galaxy is 78 Billion light years away…
In comparison, we as humans (most of us who qualify as humans that is) although we take up space we are smaller than a grain of sand on the beach and mean absolutely nothing... In time, no matter who you are or what you have done or how much money you have, no one will care or even know you existed.. We are not even dust in the wind..
I am overwhelmed with the amount of anger there is about this decision to bailout the crooks in this country. I admit to not knowing what its all about simply because I don’t want to be too angry. Its an "Ignorance is bliss" kind of thing. I only see the red-faced anger of the folks on TV and now on the streets and places I frequent. I was talking to some of my friends yesterday and they told me of people saying some not so nice things. Some of the thoughts and things you don't want to say out loud because you don't want the wrong people to hear these things. I will say these are God-fearing religious people and I have never heard this kind of talk before. Its rather dangerous to say these things. I will say that there will be more stealing, cheating and anger and if you think that money is going to fix things you are wrong...It will cause more fear and anxiety to the point that there may be riots in the streets. I know what you are thinking but it is possible. I don't know what gives those fools in the White House the right to steal this money from the taxpayers. That is not what the constitution is all about. I have got to go now before I say something I'll regret....
“Ignorance is Bliss"
These days that is so true…
What are parents not doing? Are they setting a good example? Do they set limits? At what age do you say enough is enough...Its still OK to say “Don’t watch that show“ Its still OK to say if your friend jumps of the bridge doesn‘t mean you have to! .. Most of the problems start when both parents work and the kids are left unattended. The supervision that young people desperately need is not there. This is how the trouble begins. Young people with very curious minds should be reminded that the TV show they watch is just what the name implies. “A Show” or an act and its not real. Its as simple as that. Tell them its fake and in between the commercials and ads that entice you buy something its designed to titillate your imagination. To provoke you into doing things that will hurt you. To make you spend money. Believe me that is true…Most shows today are designed to sell you something. A game or a product or a drug. TV today is only an advertising tool you involuntarily let into your house so they can make money. Think of it as something, “that sell things continuously“. The entertainment value is practically zero. A few years ago they had something called prime time TV...Now its mostly an exhibition of who can do the most asinine things…Real people are not like this but we are turning into a society that does crazy things to be famous. What they do is just an act for the camera. The shows or sitcoms that are still there are laced with body part jokes that are more for shock value and are not in the least bit funny. Did you notice the bullying epidemic got worst when a show called “Glee” started. The writers of that show wrote “Nip-tuck“. Doesn’t that tell you something? They turned the “Talent show” craze into a show that goes to the edge. One that pushes things to the limit. Yet, no one did anything about it.
Those writers are allowed to poison the minds of the kids who will believe the stuff they write.. Its the same thing with so-called reality TV. Its not real.. Then there is the internet…Believe me here, parents cannot let young minds go on the internet without supervision… Never ever trust your son or daughter to do this alone. It’s like giving them a handgun and bullets then telling them to never to load the gun… Its mental suicide… The cell phone is something else that is addicting and hazardous to your mental health. Not to mention it costs a small fortune every month. People will do practically anything to pay the cell phone bill every month. We have turned into a society walking around looking at our palms addicted to a hand held computer. How many Politicians and celebrities were caught exposing their private parts via text message? Do your kids do that? Do your kids send sex messages? When was the last time you checked your son or daughters cell phone? Think about that… A young mind is very open to suggestions good or bad. A kid will usually try anything once. TV ads prey on families where both parents work. The advertisers know this and don’t care. Its like they are setting a bad example on purpose. Young minds are being shoved and pushed in the wrong direction everyday. Families are in chaos and being torn apart because of drug and alcohol addiction. Sickness and health mean nothing anymore… My solution is simply not to watch TV. The more I talk to people about this phenomenon the more I hear of them doing the same thing. By not watching TV I feel a lot better and my mind is clear of negative thoughts and ideas.
Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. They don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or who dies...
All you tourists must go much faster so important people can get to where they are going... Its very important to go much faster than the normal 100 mph. Try to follow really close and keep the speed to 150 mph..
My mind must be in a self-protection mode today because every time I think of all the bad things going on in the world something happens and it shuts down. I actually shake my head in disbelieve when I hear or see the things people are doing to each other. Sometimes I laugh out loud. Other times I feel a profound sadness. I’m sorry. I just can’t help it, the only word that comes to mind is ludicrous. I won’t say a peculiar thing because there is just so much happening. Is it me or are things getting worse, crimes I mean? People are still killing people but in a more horrific way. The greedy thieves are still taking advantage of the less fortunate and sometimes I don’t believe what is happening. The worst part or good part is. It all depends how you look at it. I can’t make myself care. Its like I lost the ability to feel….Too borrow an old phrase from the” Star Trek“ TV show, it must be I’ve got my “Shields up“. Yes, I’ve got them set to go up automatically when the insanity is at a higher level that usual. Almost like a firewall…… With me, its business as usual and life goes on, or at least what is left of what people think is life and happiness. To be the bearer of bad news, lately I noticed the price of gas creeping up. Here, its getting close to $3 dollars a gallon for regular. You can see the greedy users and the takers are alive and well. It just never ends. I’m am not in a good mood and I feel lost because can’t find much to be happy about…..What I usually do when I feel like this is. Are you sure you want know this? Its heavy duty……..Well, OK ….Here it is….Wait for it………..Wait…………A little longer……………….Ok,…I sit back, take a breath and look at what I’ve got and then I think of all the folks who have less or who are less fortunate and I feel better….Then and here is the most important part, I help someone else… Even if its only with a smile. It works every time….I’ll bet you thought I was going to say pray or go to church…..Well, if that’s what you need to do, by all means do it but don't forget to say thank you. This is the perfect place for a Dad quote…….”I used to complain because I couldn’t run fast until I seen the little boy with no legs”………….

“Priest's Retirement Dinner”
Someone sent this to me…………..After thinking about it for about 4 seconds I decided to do a little editing and post it….The way the politicians are these days it could be a true story…
A Priest was being honored at his retirement dinner after 25 years in the parish. A leading local politician and member of the congregation was chosen to make the presentation and give a little speech at the dinner for the Priest..
However, the politician was delayed, so the Priest decided to say a few words while they waited.
He went to podium and said, “I got my first impression of the parish from the first confession I heard here. At first I thought I had been assigned to a terrible place. The very first person who entered my confessional told me he had stolen a television set and, when questioned by the police, was able to lie his way out of it. He said, he had stolen money from his parents, embezzled from his employer, had an affair with his boss's wife, taken illegal drugs and gave VD to his girlfriend. I was appalled. But as the days went on, I learned that my people were not all like that and I had, indeed, come to a fine parish full of good and loving people”.
Just as the Priest finished his talk, the politician breathlessly arrived full of apologies at being late. He immediately walked to the podium and began to make the presentation and start his talk by saying, “I’ll never forget the first day our parish Priest arrived, In fact, I had the honor of being the first person to go to him for confession”.
Moral of this story….. Never, Never, Never Be Late.
Violence on TV stimulates the copycats and the Psychopaths into thinking that they can get away with the things they see on TV or in the movies because they think they are smarter. Did you notice that lately they are putting the most insane things on the TV news? They do this so people will generate more news. In a sense they are reshaping cultural values. The young people of today are, for the most part not being taught at home or in school. Look at the epidemic of bullying lately. Years ago they learned by limit setting and their parents example. Today it’s the drug addict movie star or some other twisted thing on Facebook or YouTube. They see these things and guess what? Right, they are on the news and you are saying. ”Awww isn’t that a shame…
Classic story for the all the brave Scumbags at Department of ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Bastards to brag about at thier local VFW. How he and his coward friends killed a defenseless wild bear during mating season. Or even better yet shot while she was protecting her Cubs.. These guys are just another bunch of losers that have a short life span.. They better go home to check what their wives are doing? Maybe with a real man? To you assholes who run in the woods...The wild life belongs there YOU DON'T...If you live in Granby or East Granby you KNOW the Bears are there...
Its so sad you are a pathetic addle-minded fool… You would think with your short life expectancy you would find something better to do with your time… Like finish Grammar school or find out who your real parents are…

On October 31, 1975, the partially nude and bludgeoned body of 15-year-old Martha Moxley was found in the backyard of her family's house. She disappeared the night before after attending a Halloween party at the Skakel home, one block away from her home in Greenwich, Connecticut. ….. Michael Skakel from Connecticut beat her to death with a golf club, was convicted in 2002 of murdering Martha Moxley and sentenced to 20 years to life In 2013. He was granted a new trial by a Connecticut judge and released on $1.2 million bail, is now being appealed by the prosecution.
David Cay Johnston writes, “Monday’s riots in Baltimore offered a powerful warning about what lies ahead for America if its epidemic of inequality continues. But will we understand the message in the chaos? “A riot is the language of the unheard,” the Rev. Martin Luther King said. What gets lost in translation is the logic that motivates rioters, whose inability to articulate their frustration finds expression in rocks thrown at police, looting neighborhood stores and setting fires. To outside observers, these actions appear irrational and self-defeating.
It starts with the lack of parental supervision then paranoia, fear, anger, revenge, rage and resentment. It begins with the use of Prescription drugs leading to alcohol then street drugs turning into visions of grandeur…You don’t need a doctor to figure that out..
If you think about it drug dealers are responsible for the addiction and death of many young men and woman. I realize that the addicts give the drug to themselves but if they had no way to get it.. Well think about it...Addiction ... There is no “Cure” for addiction. Once you stop using drugs or alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The progression of the addiction disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to get better. Addiction is a disease like Cancer, or Sugar Diabetes. There is no cure. In the past drug dealers gave you a free sample of what they wanted to sell you to get you to come back for more. It didn’t take long before you would do just about anything (steal, sell yourself, Do you remember girls?) to get the drug. Today anything goes and they do that to sell you just about anything. You know the stories. The tragic death of the high school kid who used just a little too much or committed suicide because he or she thought they couldn’t stop. They are right Execute the dealers...
Martial law is the imposition of the highest-ranking military officer as the military governor or as the head of the government, thus removing all power from the previous executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government.
It is usually imposed temporarily when the government or civilian authorities fail to function effectively (e.g., maintain order and security, or provide essential services).
Martial law can be used by governments to enforce their rule over the public. Such incidents may occur after a coup d'état (such as Thailand in 2006 and 2014); when threatened by popular protest (China, Tiananmen Square protests of 1989); to suppress political opposition (Poland in 1981); or to stabilize insurrections or perceived insurrections (Canada, The October Crisis of 1970). Martial law may be declared in cases of major natural disasters; however, most countries use a different legal construct, such as a state of emergency.
Martial law has also been imposed during conflicts and in cases of occupations, where the absence of any other civil government provides for an unstable population. Examples of this form of military rule include post World War II reconstruction in Germany and Japan as well as the southern reconstruction following the U.S. Civil War.
Typically, the imposition of martial law accompanies curfews, the suspension of civil law, civil rights, habeas corpus, and the application or extension of military law or military justice to civilians. Civilians defying martial law may be subjected to military tribunal (court-martial).
Mother and son shot to death says it all. "He was younger than 18 when he pulled the trigger". He actually said that? Good confession.. He's old enough now.. He belongs where he is...
The President and Governor both agree and announced today that they think everyone should be able to go faster. So effective immediately the new country wide posted State highway speed will be 200 mph. Back roads speeds will be increased from 25 or 30 to 100 mph. Effective immediately. Because of over population and driver licenses being issued to all illegal immigrants driving will only be permitted on odd or even days. Your license plate number will be used to determine if its your day to drive. If caught driving on the wrong day a one year mandatory jail sentence and a $10,000 dollar fine will be issued. Drones will be flying over highways and cameras installed on the highways and roads will issue the fine to be sent in your mail. The computer that runs your car will shut off automatically and the car will stall. Towing charges by the State and Government will be $5000.
There is a sadness about this that make people like me glad to be the age I am. We can only sit back and watch as the once wonderful country I knew is slowing dieing because of insensitivity and greed of the corrupt bureaucrats..
Comment.........I have been thinking about the comments I made the other morning about illegal’s. I understand the intolerable conditions of some of the countries they come from but when they come to America they have the responsibility to join the work force, pay taxes and obey the laws. Coming here is not free. If they want to stay they need learn the English language and become a citizen. I didn’t say it was going to be easy…I mentioned before my grandmother and grandfather did it and they practically raised me while my parents worked. Let me tell you something…..If I moved to Italy, France or Russia for that matter, I guarantee and promise that within 6 months I would speak the language. I know and realize that because I would have went there prepared to do what is asked of me. I certainty would not expect them to change for me. Remember, “When in Rome do as the Romans do”. I understand that there are rules and laws and its not easy. Its nice here but moving here does not come with all the perks. It’s the responsibly of anyone who moves here, to work, take care of the environment and if they plan to stay, learn to speak English. They must also learn our cultures and be respectful no matter how hard it is. Its not as easy as its cracked up to be….

Where are your glasses?
Yesterday my daughter e-mailed me again asking why I didn't do something useful with my time.
“Like sitting around the pool and drinking wine is not a good thing”, I said. Talking about my "doing something useful" seems to be her favorite topic of conversation. She was "only thinking of me" she said, and suggested I go down to the Mens' Shed and hang out with the guys. I did this and when I got home last night I decided to teach her a lesson about staying out of my business. I e-mailed her and told her that I had joined a parachute club.
She replied, "Are you nuts? You are 75 years old, and now you're going to start jumping out of planes?"
I told her that I even got a membership card and e-mailed a copy to her.
She immediately telephoned me, "Good grief, where are your glasses? This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club.
"Oh man, I'm in trouble again; I really don't know what to do... I signed up for five jumps a week." The line went quiet and her friend picked up the phone and said that my daughter had fainted.
Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier but sometimes it can be fun.

President Abraham Lincoln died here at Petersen House, after being shot the previous evening at Ford's Theatre located across the street. This photo was taken in 1900- 115 years ago, and from the sign we see there was an admission price of 25 cents
Yes it is sad but its real. Its just when they say everything is good and it isn't. Its like they are being overlooked. No, its not all like this. Its the hundreds of for sale signs on houses in certain areas. They will ignore a perfectly good empty building and build another one next to it for a business. The farms are gone. They will cut down fields of trees for a coffee shop knowing there are 3 more a mile away. Farm equipment is left to rot. I imagine a hard working man or woman working all their lives only to die and the result is boards over the windows and junk all over the place. All those factory's along the rivers are gone or rotting away. Sad, yes you are right. No one cares...What I am posting are reminders. I will always be a thorn in the side of the Bastards who make the rules and regulations.....

As the war continues here in the United Stares.. Did you get the feeling there are a lot of unhappy people in this country.
I understand there is crime in Hartford...I think I got it right because it says "Windsor Locks" on the page... However I want the Windsor Locks, Windsor. E. Granby. and Enfield area.. Please send me the proper links for those areas.. Thank you..
Remember when the excuse was to allow the Indians to build Casinos so tax dollars could pay for education in Connecticut. Now they are closing schools and cutting school programs. The result is dying communities around the Casinos and schools filled with the children of casino workers and Illegal children. Drive through Norwich Conn. If you don’t believe me..
Fast food ... Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don't waste anything. You could mention that they bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Mention the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig scream?
Drugs ... We have entire generations of kids on psych drugs, Adderall, Ritalin, and the list keeps growing. I am convinced that there's a significant test and correlation between these drugs and so many of the episodes we have seen over the years. It's too easy to prescribe these ADD drugs and diagnose every undisciplined kid as having a deficit or learning disorder. Instead of good discipline and parenting, we reach for the Med X.
Its funny... they dress up like clown's in their camouflage clothes with duck blinds as protection. It kind of reminds me wanna-be solders that are cowards. Put them some where the game can kill them or someone that can shoot back.. Give me a break, think about it "A Duck"? OMG it "goes quack, quack, please don't shoot me sir, I won't bite you".. These guys are just another bunch of losers that will end with a short life span...Hey, the truth is the truth.. They better go home to check what their wives are doing? Maybe with a real man? Think about it..
You pathetic addle-minded fool… You would think with your short life expectancy you would find something better to do with your time… Like finish Grammar school or find out who your real parents are…
Treatment center.. At the rate this country in swirling down the toilet with Pharmaceuticals and drug use we are really going to need another rehab...
What's weird is no one wants you to know this because no one cares…Its all about the money..
A segregated schoolhouse, South Carolina, 1905. I'm thinking this was one of the better schools for black children in the south in those days- it looks very pleasant, the children are well dressed and the teacher looks like a nice and caring person.
Its all about speaking and reading English and having a Passenger Endorsement on their drivers license if they bother to have one. Its about Insurance and drivers who are felons. Then there are the illegal’s and do they really have a drivers license and how many DWI's do they have? Photo ID’s and finger prints and to pass a driving livery test. Background checks should be mandatory... These days with all those Lawyers waiting on the sidelines for a driver to screw up, the more rules the better.
While they are learning about efficiency.. Teach them why the public needs to Raped with those high propane, oil and gas prices.. also find out how our corrupt lawmakers can sleep at night knowing people in Connecticut are cold and losing their homes and families because of high prices.
Just ignore this message if you are one of those corrupt bottom-feeders... Ask Getty junior he knows now.. Look at all the happiness it got him..
Banned from going to another State says it all. Who does this public servant think he is? Hey I know... We can sell whiskey on Sundays.. Now that's freedom... Don't forget Tolls on all the highways forgetting that fiery accident that killed that whole family a few years ago...Now you are free to go on highways.. And when you go on, go as fast as you want because police presence is slim to none. Just be careful of all the construction... If you are lucky maybe you can cause a trailer truck to roll over and kill someone... Sorry about that, what's the topic? Gay people buying flowers at a florist... Can I still say that? I know what! Stay off the highways and fly... If you don't mind having your picture taken and being searched and humiliated... Free, who's free?
First of all he is not a Sergeant.. Its called “time and grade”. He walked away from his company 5 years ago and its because of this time, only was he was given the rank of Sergeant. He DID NOT EARN IT! I don’t why Obamea got him out of there but something doesn’t smell right. Something is going on here we don’t know about! You don’t just do this for a liar, coward or a traitor! He is one of those… His parents (Muslim) at the White House for a photo opt, give me a break! Is that lawyer a Muslim? Who is paying for all this?

Math is the universal language, and it rarely ever lies. Each game you play at a casino has a statistical probability against you winning. Every single time. This house advantage varies for each game, and helps ensure that over time the casino won't lose money against gamblers. For people who are really good at Blackjack, the advantage for the casino might only be 0.5%, but certain types of slot machines might have a 35% edge over a player, and other games fall somewhere in between. The slot machine odds are some of the worst, ranging from a one in 5,000 to a one in about 34 million chance of winning the top prize when using the maximum coin play.
On October 31, 1975, the partially nude and bludgeoned body of 15-year-old Martha Moxley was found in the backyard of her family's house. She disappeared the night before after attending a Halloween party at the Skakel home, one block away from her home in Greenwich, Connecticut. ….. Michael Skakel from Connecticut beat her to death with a golf club, was convicted in 2002 of murdering Martha Moxley and sentenced to 20 years to life In 2013. He was granted a new trial by a Connecticut judge and released on $1.2 million bail, is now being appealed by the prosecution.
Elvis plays 'Unchained Melody' for the first time live before the albums release at the Pershing Municipal Auditorium, Lincoln, Nebraska, June 20, 1977. He died August 16, 1977 at age 42 of anaphylactic shock brought on by the codeine pills...
.. Besides there are a lot of corrupt unconvicted in office now. As soon as Roland gets out of prison would you hire him? The next thing you know they will be hiring felons at Burger King..
For years Robert Durst has had a psychopathic personality, it manifests as amoral and antisocial behavior and the lack of ability to love or establish meaningful personal relationships, extreme egocentricity, failure to learn from experience. If you look at this case from the beginning his lawyers getting him free are responsible for his actions. Keep in mind he murdered his friend when he found out who he was. He then cut up his body with a ax and a saw, then put the pieces in garbage bags and dumped him the river.. They still can’t find his friends head because Durst shot him in the back of his head. It was not an accident..
He is just one of the reasons we had Insane Asylums years ago...
I can hear the lawyer now.. This was all a big mistake, he is a hard working honest person, busy corrupting the minds of the black and white youth America with his music… I can hear Suge saying "Get me out of here you Whore Bit--! You Mothr fruckers got the wrong dude... I can hear the Judge say $25 Million.. I can hear Suge saying "get me a new Mothr Frucking lawyer.. Sorry, I couldn't resist.. \ By the way the fainting was all a show....
This is a Muslim attempt to seduce the young woman of the world and the United States and they will find those who will think, “its so cool to wear one of those”. The next step will be to get them to join a terrorist group. Third step will be how to strap a bomb on and go to a school or the super market. You will say “its so sad, where were her parents”.

Summer around here in Rhode Island and Connecticut means huge traffic problems. Its ether bumper to bumper or everyone is going 150 mph on Route 95. Its high prices and dumb looking, sickly pale people talking different languages, with their stupid looking clothes thinking they are so cool. What’s interesting is they will pay for stuff, triple the price, and think they are getting a deal.. For me it means I can’t see my friends until all these aliens go back to where they came from… Its not a healthy environment until they go away…

Fast food again ...
That was years ago and now with the way they mass produce chicken, cattle and pigs and the way they slaughter them I will never eat meat again. The Beef and Pigs are injected with growth hormones to mass produce them. The same thing with Chickens. They are locked in small cage's suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. The oceans are poisoned with Mercury. Remember the Mercury warnings? They don’t tell you that anymore. Its worse now. Now its oil, radiation and what ever else they dump in the ocean. Don’t you ever believe that they care because they don’t. Its all about their profit margin. Remember when you could trust the producers of food. Well don’t! Look at all the over weight people from eating McDonald’s, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Wendy’s limping around this country. Believe me, No one cares!
Do you know the name, phone number and address of the Bastard that did this? If anybody knows it, post it here or on Twitter..
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning that the
prescription smoking cessation medicine Chantix (varenicline) can change
the way people react to alcohol. In addition, rare accounts of seizures
in patients treated with Chantix have been reported. We have approved
changes to the Chantix label to warn about these risks. Until patients
know how Chantix affects their ability to tolerate alcohol, they should
decrease the amount of alcohol they drink. Patients who have a seizure
while taking Chantix should stop the medicine and seek medical attention
immediately. Millions of Americans have serious health problems caused by smoking,
which can be reduced by quitting. Chantix is a prescription medicine
that is FDA-approved to help adults quit smoking. In clinical trials,
Chantix increased the likelihood of quitting smoking and “staying quit”
for as long as 1 year compared to treatment with a placebo, an inactive
treatment.
To make a long story short... STOP eating at McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, all the new cholesterol grease pits and especially that Chicken swill pit with the picture of the old guy on the front... If it helps to stay away, think of all the chemicals they put in the food to make it taste better... It could be very addicting...
Modern industrialization is no longer about steam power, ocean ships, and railways. It's about herd immunization, the mass drugging of our population, and the industrialized production of cheap, storable food. We've ended up with an entire society getting sicker and sicker while the industrial powers get richer and richer. What were once considered farfetched conspiracy theories are now being shown to be stark irrefutable realities. Serious illnesses have been on a steep incline since the number of mandated vaccines has skyrocketed (starting with infants within their first hours of life) coupled with the advent of GMO foods since the mid 1990's. But if anyone dares question these remarkable correlations then they are labeled anti-science and ignorant. We used to brag that we had the most remarkable healthcare system in the world, the last example of a great private healthcare system. Now we are waking up to the fact that we don't have a private system, we have a pharmaceuticalized ... Written by Jeff Hays
What you are doing is making the rich, richer.. How much will it cost for the car? How much will it cost to charge the battery in your garage? If your electric bill is $200 a month for a 3 bedroom house how much more will it be to charge the car?.. You do know there is a gas engine in that car also… How long will it run with a charge or without a charge? How long will it take to charge? How much will it cost to install a special plug in your garage to do it? Depending on how much you use it I can see a $2000 monthly bill for electricity.. Remember they will stick it to you any way and as much as they can….The way I see it and figure it out it will cost you more to run the electric car….You won’t be alive long enough to make any difference, then it won’t matter anyway…How about insurance? Never mind I’ll keep my Mustang… I’ve had to 130 mph then it shifts it to 5th gear…
This picture was taken around the time Mark Spitz won 3 gold metals in the Olympics… I don’t remember the year but I thought that it was cool so I grew a mustache. I kept it for years mainly because my Grandfather had one… I have recently shaved. I look different.. In this picture we were at the VFW in Windsor Locks Conn. for a function for Ann’s father.. Note the long hair and Steve McQueen sun glasses in my pocket. My God I thought I was so cool..
This is the expanded version of a response to someone who sent me a Facebook message after I made this comment on a local newspaper page showing me statistics and numbers about other country's that condone medical marijuana...Sorry but I get a little upset when people with no brains try to bullshit me....
Yes, its common knowledge and common sense that tells me if I smoke cigarettes or marijuana the noxious fumes and chemicals will shorten my life span…The human lungs were designed to breath normal air. Not the poisonous fumes and chemicals that come from marijuana or cigarettes. I don’t need statistics and numbers to tell me that. Why do I need to get high by smoking marijuana? I like myself and I love life and everything about it...Why do you need to suck this cancer into your lungs? For pain? That’s as good excuse as any. Take an aspirin you moron...When you are 60. If you live that long? You will be the smelly, pale old man with emphysema holding on to a green oxygen tank riding around Walmart on that electric handicap cart spending your welfare check. Any Politician that would vote to make this poison legal does not care about you or the young people that will someday smoke this garbage. Those officials like our Governor from Connecticut are corrupt and not saying why they would vote to let this happen but I know its always about the money. Somewhere along the line its self interest that motivates these Bastards. And the comment about other country's? I don’t care what goes on in other countries they can all smoke themselves to death or blow themselves up! This is America! My Grandkids live here and I don’t want them turning into drug addicts like you or people like you….
Effective immediately the new country wide posted State highway speed will be 150 mph. Back roads speeds will be increased from 30 to 90 mph. Effective immediately. Because of over population and driver licenses being issued to all illegal immigrants driving will only be permitted on odd or even days. Your license plate number will be used to determine if its your day to drive. If caught driving on the wrong day a one year mandatory jail sentence and a $10,000 dollar fine will be issued. Drones will be flying over highways and cameras installed on the highways and roads will issue the fine to be sent in your mail. The computer that runs your car will shut off automatically and the car will stall. Towing charges by the State and Government will be $5000.
I have been thinking about the “back when” theme.. I like that.. I run out of stuff to say but that’s OK. The thing is I have to stop complaining and show some of my memories.. This is a picture from my wedding.. My wife Ann died of Cancer when she was 64. I wasn’t married to her at the end but we were the best of friends.. I miss her. The 20 years we were married we went through some tough times with some drug sick kids but we survived.. This is not sad excuse story. We had wonderful times together and the memories I have of us are golden…She was not only a beautiful woman but was charming person…
Not to long ago at one time I was a little kid.. We all were little kids.. I miss back then.. I was small. Innocent…. Now, years later there is a feeling of loneliness and I miss things.. I miss the old town I lived in, the people, my friends. I have discovered you can visit but you can never go back.. Yes, you can go back to the town but everything is changed. All the buildings I knew are gone. The people are gone.
It seems like things changed over night. It even smells different… I’m at an age now where you start thinking about genes and health.. I’m so blessed when it comes to that.. It seems like yesterday that I was going to the Catholic school in my little town.. I remember that, like it was yesterday…We try so hard to hang on to what we have but it still changes. The people we knew, our parents, even the material things. Everything changes. The older you get, the time moves faster and faster. Now it seems you don’t have time to enjoy, even a moment anymore. You put up imaginary fences and walls to keep out the bad guys and thoughts but some always manage to slither through.. These days its hard to tell the difference between the good and the bad. I feel sad because there are a lots of innocents that will never be the same again. I do everything I can to live and let live but I have a compassion for those who I know that will never be able to live what I consider normal life. They will never have what I had and still have… At times I worry but under the surface there is a peace and understanding, a subtle happiness that I have earned through the years.. That I will never lose.. I wait now, patiently with a content and a comfortable feeling to be voided out.....
Hollywood and fame strip these kids of their morals and dignity.. Its been going on for years.. Lack of parental supervision when an agent takes over then the almighty dollar and the craving of the adoration of an audience leads drug use and a willingness to do and say anything to get what they think is missing from their lives..
Morbid yes.. bear with me please.. How about actors and actress's that had it all and lose their life using drugs and alcohol by overdosing or committing suicide.. You could go back 10 or 20 years maybe saying no matter who you are or what you have...don't use drugs....
When it snows, especially when there is freezing rain mixed in, everyone needs to go really fast.. 100, 120 MPH.. Make sure to be talking and texting on your cell phone while going fast during an ice or snow storm…You can fly over the snow and icy spots... Its also important to zigzag between slower drivers and to follow them close, less than one car length.. Turn off all lights so you can surprise other drivers. Pass trailer trucks and cars on the right and left coming as close as possible. Follow the trucks really close when you see snow on the back of the trailer.. The more snow the better.. Speed is very important so when it snows go really fast….
Recycling... Not to long ago I took ride on my bike to the recycling center in Suffield Conn. Its a huge facility that receives the garbage from the surrounding communities. Those big garbage trucks you see a few times a week on your street back into these places and dump their load onto conveyor belts to be separated by workers (humans) and sent to different places in this huge trash factory . For example, plastic with plastic, aluminum with aluminum and glass with glass. The rest of the trash like paper and other things is sent to a special place in this factory. In other words nothing is actually thrown away. Everything is, to put it bluntly, recycled...I wonder who paid to build these places and who works there? Another question here is who is making money on the things you throw away? I seen freight car loads of shredded aluminum and plastic going somewhere...They want you to separate this stuff. Why? Do you separate your trash and garbage for them? Do you get paid for doing this? Why, do you do this if someone does for you?
“I Could Have Been a Rock Star”
If I knew, just some of what I know now when I was a young man I would have become a Rock Star…Wait, don’t say anything yet or “Jump to conclusions.” Dad used to say that last part… I did play the electric guitar for a while when I was in my late teens and early 20s. I started to get good until I had finger problems. I had and still have Reynaud’s Disease, a circulatory problem and because of ulcerated finger tips I had to stop playing. Two major operations, two weeks in intensive care, two months in the hospital and a year later my disease was under control but I couldn’t play anymore. My finger tips were healing and very tender. The calluses were gone. I was afraid if I tried, the finger problem would return and I didn’t want to go through all that hospital stuff again or risk losing a finger or two…These days I always enjoy thinking that if I threw caution to the wind, made different decisions and worked really hard at overcoming the finger problems I could have been a success at playing with a band. I did have two friends who were singer musicians and they had hit records. If I only put myself in the right place with these guys at the right time and really had the guts and determination to pursue this line of work. I mean it would have been a job after all. I think and I am almost sure I could have played for a major Rock Band. Today when I hear the lead guitar for Guns N’ Roses, Journey, The Stones or of the any the big name groups from a few years ago. I get goose bumps. I know the cords and beat, the strumming technique and the timing. I can feel the energy of the crowd. I can actually feel myself playing lead or back up guitar with the crowd roaring…Its like I’m there…. Its an unbelievable feeling… I could cry when I think of what I could have done if I stayed healthy…..
Comment ....I wrote this piece on September 3, 2011 for Live Journal and reread it just the other day. Yesterday morning I was talking to someone about what they call "a series of events". Like what would I be doing now if I did this or that. What if I made the decision to talk to someone or not talk to someone. What happens when I make the decision not to go somewhere or to go somewhere. Like the right choices or the wrong choices...Each decision we make through out our lives could change the coarse of our lives...Knowingly or unknowingly we could, without the proper guidance, "live or die"...Well, I guess I made the right decisions, some questionable but for the most part the right choices through out my life....But what if I went in the other direction? What if one of my friends pulled some strings and I landed a job as a guitar player for a rock group. Where would I be today? Would drugs have taken over my life? We won't know that but what really prompted me to go in a different direction? I was just over (cured) of a serious illness but I was a defiant young man. Sort of a risk taker....Was it fate? What is fate? What was guiding me? Do you think my fate was predetermined? Through the years I have often wondered why I am still healthy and why I am really here. Today I no longer ask that question. I just go along in life with what ever is asked of me...I know, I know you want a Dad quote...Lorenzo sometimes you have to just "Grin and bear it"....
It took 87 days to fix The BP oil leak in the gulf of Mexico, a thousand years to recover from the damage it caused…Isn’t it interesting that they can have the camera there to monitor the leak but they can’t fix it….Its like having cameras everywhere to watch us but they can’t stop crime…It just never freaking ends.
Its funny... they dress up like clown's in their camouflage clothes with duck blinds as protection. It kind of reminds me wanna-be solders that are cowards. Put them some where the game can kill them or someone that can shoot back.. Give me a break, think about it "A Duck"? OMG it "goes quack, quack, please don't shoot me sir, I won't bite you".. These guys are just another bunch of losers that will end with a short life span...Hey, the truth is the truth.. They better go home to check what their wives are doing? Maybe with a real man? Think about it....
Now, a little bit of some, “Words that make you think“…I was talking to a friend of mine who just happens to be Catholic priest about God and a the mystery of a strength greater than myself. I asked him about the connection of God and the church and a drug addict or an alcoholic who has denied God but now needs a power greater than him or her self to stay clean or stop drinking. He said “Lar, The people who go to church every Sunday are afraid to go to Hell. The people who ask God to help them stay clean and sober have already been there“. “That’s the difference“…I still have goose bumps….
I sorry this EM is so intense but the one you sent me was the, "Straw that broke the Camels back“. I can’t imagine what ever possessed you write something like that? You and I haven’t been a we for many years. I haven't thought about you for a long time except for when you, ------- read on you will get the point... Does what you did to me bother you so much that you are still troubled after all these years? Don’t answer that! That was a rhetorical question and you would only lie and deny it. I was going ignore you like I would any lowlife troll but after considerable thought but with some curiosity I wanted to remind you of what really happened and give you my opinion of what you did. I mean the truth is the truth and you sometimes blank things out. It’s pretty clear to me this is what you did.
When I first met you at Bobby’s Restaurant You attracted me with those sexy eyes but sleeping with and having sex with that Nigger from the junk yard on Scantic Rd. Wanna talk about Ghetto? Now that’s the pot calling the kettle black! Sorry, I slipped, that Black man. Did your Grandmother and Mom know that? Better still, does that wonderful husband of yours know that? Please don’t say you were just confused! That is so boring.. Oh, and I also know about most of those tiny secret indiscretions with guys that we both know. Those guys you don‘t think I know about. Sorry but its to lengthy to go in to. You were quite the girl though. Really mixed up and confused I guess..
Anyways, I didn’t know this at the time but I’m the kind of guy that likes to save losers, hey, that’s who I am, been doing that for years now, so at the time I felt sorry for you, now give me a break.. I was lonely, coming from a sexless marriage and only sober for 2 years and thought I could save the world. By the way, I’ve been sober now for 37 years now. You were a test for me and it looks like I passed.
Actually, call me superficial but it was those really great blowjobs and your big tits that (sucked me in), << good choice of words huh. Well, to be honest, swallowing my cum helped. To this day I still remember fondly how you licked, wet and sucked my balls then sucked my cock dry, swallowing every drop then looking up at me with those sexy eyes and that innocent smile, licking you lips. In fact, that is the only good memory I have of you. I guess that’s a guy thing.. I’ve had better cock suckers since but you are still on my top 10 list. Now that is something to be proud of because there have been many…
Moving on here… Remember before you met me you had a baby and gave it away. Do you remember when you gave up your Daughter? Do you contact her these days to tell her what a wonderful life you have?… Does your hubby know that you have a daughter out there somewhere? Oh, that beautiful woman I was with when I dropped off Nicky off that night was a Saint who helped me get over you.. You forgot about that didn’t you? But I digress…
On to cute Chaussy or what ever her name was.. Nice try bringing her home and getting her to get me alone at night like that.. She tried twice after you went to bed.. The first time I told her no. Second time a few weeks later she got on her knees between my legs and well I think you get the picture.. I succumbed to her charms because I knew what you were doing.. Her eyes rolled back and she swallowed my cum also. After it was over she begged me not to tell you.. I love the way she licked her lips after. She didn't quite make the top 10 but she was good...I’ll bet she never told you about that. You send someone on mission and then she doesn't tell you what really happened. I’ll bet you even trusted her.. She lived with you for a while after, didn’t she? OK, I know I have this blow job fetish. There is something about a pretty young girl on her knees that turns me on.. I’m 76 years old now and it still happens. They still love to suck me off. OK, it takes a little longer to cum but they try harder and I love that they work so long and hard.
However this is not about me. You lied and cheated ((hickey’s all over your neck, telling me you got mugged in the stair well)) I never ever believed you. You hooked up with a drunk who beat you. Now that’s a good choice.. By the way, he’s dead now! Overdosed or drank himself to death a few years later.. Remember when you tried to come back and I threw your cheating, lying, ass out.. Names? Shrinks? I never sent you names of anybody. I dumped you! Plus that really horrible snoring was the frosting on the cake... Like I said, Loser..
So here you are now from Montville Ct. (loserville) writing me 30 years later telling how happy you are, saying things and making decisions about me that you know nothing about. I’m telling you here >>>> Mind your own business, “you bimbo“. Not my words, someone I told about you, described you like that.. They asked why I got hooked up with you and I told them I felt sorry for you…Well, I still pity you and I do pray for you.. Don’t write to me again and mind your own business or I promise I will make it my mission in life to show this to that wonderful husband of yours and the past will really come back to haunt you…
P.S. I'm so sorry, I know this is intense and I'm not really mad. I'm just glad I was able to get that off my chest. Now I feel better.....Thank you...
Its one of those days that I sit here and look at the little blinking line on the word processor. Sometimes its a challenge to come up with something interesting to write about. Lets face it. By choice, I live a very, I’ll never say boring life. More like, “Laid back” are the right words. I could write about the past but nothing brilliant comes to mind…I could write about the future but lets face it, we really don’t know what’s going to happen in the next minute. Here's Proof read on...... I was thinking yesterday afternoon on the way home in the wind and rain that I was almost home safely. Wait, I thought, not really. I was 2 miles from home and approaching an intersection and I thought what if someone goes through the red light and broadsides my car? No, I made it through the light but did slow down and I looked both ways first. Then I thought, as I was driving by a convenience store. What if someone with a gun comes out shooting and inadvertently fires at my car as I’m driving by? No, that didn’t happen…..I then glanced in the rear view mirror and thought what if someone rear ended me in an out of control Toyota a 100 miles an hour. Nobody was behind me. A mile to go and I thought as I was driving down my tree lined street in the wind and rain, what if a tree limb broke on one of these huge trees and went through my windshield. Nope, not today….Now I’m a half mile from home and I thought what if someone is shooting at cars from one of these homes, because of anger “Sniper style” and randomly shoots at me? Didn’t happen….Wow, I was turning into my drive way safe at last but wait, what if there is a terrorist in my building with a bomb? Well, I won’t go into that……Laid back or boring? Life in this country is one day at a time. Are you in control of your life or is that Higher Power in the LJ question the other day sort of watching over things? I happen to think I wasn’t in control yesterday. I was 2 miles from home and well, you know what I mean………

After extensive and urgent investigations by the FBI, CIA, NSA, MI6 and the
Massachusetts State Police it has been confirmed by inside sources that the
Obama administration paid the NFL referee who inspected Sunday's Patriots
game foot balls to release 2 psi of air from 11 of 12 footballs.
Sources also say that this was to give the major news media something to
talk about lest they discover some problems with the "it's all wonderful"
state of the union address.
Absent from the mainstream media are worries about:
* the Nation's $18 Trillion debt;
* the continuous wars that we are in;
* the Right to Life March;
* the open border available to terrorist, measles carriers and future democrats;
* the still undisclosed lies about Benghazi gate and Fast and Furious gate;
* the once strong, now forgotten, Constitution;
* and our gutless Congress. (What are they waiting for?)
Don't worry. It's all under control - there control that is!
Looks like they need money for medical care for their wives and children or they need new masks and robes to cover them up. $200 Million should help.......I love his all black attire, the contrast with brown shoulder gun strap is perfect for today's terrorist. That little narrow slit in his "Calvin Kline" mask for his eyes is cool and says it all .. I'll bet he has a "New England Patriot" hat tucked in his back pocket....I wonder what they do for a living beside kill people. I was thinking, maybe a shiny chrome machete should be tucked in his belt for instant head removal.. Where did they capture these guys and why were they where they were?....... Hey, they have to raise some money anyway they know how.. Personally, I think all this Terrorism stuff is getting rather boring....Can you tell?
I went to the Super Market yesterday and while waiting in the line I call the, "Compulsive spender aisle", its the aisle located just before the cash register and they make you pass through there to wait before paying. I noticed one of those New York gossip rags with the headline "Son of Sam speaks". I started to think about what is going on in this country with the all the murders and shootings. Its like this newspaper and others like it, if you can call them that, want something to happen. Who cares what this Bastard has to say? Yet someone will actually spend money to read what this monster said. I will never understand that.. These newspapers know that maybe someone reading what this freak has to say will be encouraged to copy these psychopaths, thinking that they can get away with murder. I don't know but I think its because these nutcases think they are smarter. They always show the most shocking and insane things on the TV news? They are constantly reshaping our cultural values. The young people of today are, for the most part not being taught at home or in school anymore. Look at the bullying epidemic for example. Years ago kids learned by limit setting and their parents example. Today it’s the murderer or shooter as they call him, the drug addict movie star or singer or some other twisted thing on Facebook or YouTube. Young minds see these things and guess what? Right, without the right supervision kids will try anything. The next thing you know they are on the local news and you are saying. "Awww isn’t that a shame, I knew that kid, he was so nice...
Who said Problem??? For who? Do you mean people can buy gas or heat their homes and be warm and not feel dirty or like they have been raped at the pump? People can buy a half gallon of milk instead a quart. Do you mean people can feed their kids a nutritious diet? Do you mean people can eat at a real restaurant instead of that fast food swill? Do you mean people can have a few dollars in their pocket at payday? What really happened was they ran out of room to store those giant stacks of $1000 bills. They finally realize or someone told them that you cannot build a coffin big enough to take it with you.. That’s what happened… “Lawmakers”, I love the way they say Lawmakers.. The LAWMAKER should say out loud that they won’t hurt the people by raising taxes. He should say reduce the gas and heating oil tax so PEOPLE can eat… Governor, that’s a joke Right? This Governor has always been about himself. Our (((Lawmakers?))) are hurting innocent people and THEY don’t care about you… Its always been and will be always about Self-Interest….

This note is to anyone asking me to play a “Game on Facebook“! Thank you for asking but I don’t play online games. In the past computer games were fun and I have almost 5 million of those worthless tokens on Pogo. Now, all these game sites are used to gather personal information on you to sell to someone or to sell you something. I will not be a part of this nonsense. I have a Nintendo DS and I will go to a Game Stop store to buy and trade games in if I need any…Its very inexpensive and much more fun. I prefer to keep a low profile and the less these greedy bastards and morons know about me the better it is…I don’t watch TV programs or news and haven’t in four months (a new record) and as a result I don’t see any of the ads or commercials… Lately the Network internet pages are coming with pop-ups and talking ads…I don’t go to those sites anymore! I delete all the cookies on my computer 5 times a week. I will only buy what I need and only if I need it. To show me a commercial or ad is a waste of your money and my time…. If I do happen to see an ad I will go out of my way to tell people NOT to but the product. In fact I will tell people its bad just create doubt so they won‘t buy it…If something I have is broken or doesn't work I will fix it rather than buy a new one…I could go on and on…I said all this before in past posts…Anyway, thank you for asking but no thank you I don't play games.
Lately I have been watching Military movies "American Sniper" Has the Military lifted the ban a facial hair? I'm ex-Military police. Yes, it was a long time ago but if you didn't shave you had a problem. What is going on in these movies. Yes I was dead on bulls-eye at 500 yards with an M-1 30 cal rifle case you were wondering. What about the facial hair?
Yesterday Cathy and I went to “Trader Joes” in Warwick R.I. When we got there we needed gas so we stopped in one of those Super Market need your shopping card to buy gas places.. I won’t say the name because I really don’t like, nor do I condone “Ads” or any kind or advertising anywhere. I know I said “Trader Joes” but I really like that place. I got out of the car, walked over and looked up and said “pump 8” to an odd looking hanging microphone and a drawer opened and I put a twenty dollar bill and the card in the sliding drawer, actually it was her card with a $20 dollar bill. The drawer slid closed and 5 seconds later the drawer opened with the card only and I heard a cranky male voice behind the one way glass say, “Thank you”. When this was all over it was the first time in 5 years I only paid $2.07 a gallon for gas.
Another first is, it snowed today where I live in Pawcatuck Connecticut for the first time since last February …We got 3 inches of snow…
17 years old and forced by the State to have Chemotherapy. What if she pulls the needles out of her arm? Will they strap her to the bed kicking and screaming? Expect her to be grateful and have a happy life later, if there is a later. Contrary to what THEY want you to believe "There is no happy life"! We live in a very sick society and its getting sicker by the second. What does Dad have to say about this? Mom seems to agree with her daughter.. A Doctor must have told her what to expect even if she does this. What gives the Bastards that work for the State the right to make you do anything if you don't want to.. Did a Shyster Lawyer make a law or a rule. Believe me here, they don't care about her or me or you, it was only for the money and how much they will make..... It was not for that beautiful young girl..
I loved both of my Parents and Grandparents. They guided me through the pitfalls of life until I could find my own way with comfort and dignity. I have and use everyday the Rock Maple dresser that my Grandmother had since 1900. I still have and use my Dad's battery operated "Shave Man" shaver and I use my Mom's silverware and some of her dishes everyday. The memories are priceless. To this day I have an Oval Empire school picture of my Uncle Lorenzo (my namesake) hanging in a prominent place on the wall in my house. He was my Dad's brother who drowned in 1910 when he was 13 years old in the canal basin in my old home town. He looks just like me at that age.. When ever I move its the first thing I put in the car to go with me...
On and on it goes... America is not a country anymore its become a business... The wars and greed gets thicker in Obama's new America. It can't last forever...How long will it be before it implodes? Obama's Illinois sly sneaky grins and winks will fade away. The question is? Is it too late? Have you become one of Obama's new clones? No, not one of those plastic human like machines on the Si-Fi channel or in the movies, not scientifically made but the kind made from your new environment. From now on or at least for a little while there is no middle class! You are ether rich or you are poor. Now you suffer or you don’t. For the poor, rage and anger are the new attitudes. Death, Fear and Terrorism are the norm. For the rich, they just don’t care. There is no in-between. The majority of you have now been programmed and coerced into buying anything they are selling because of instant gratification and because they say you need to have it. Your freedom of choice is literally gone. You are doing these things automatically now. Your corrupt Illinois President and all your corrupt leaders in Washington are bought and paid for by the oil company's greed and big business. You are all blind or have been blinded to what is going on around you. You see and hear only what they want you to see and hear when they want you to see it and hear it. Everywhere you go, what ever you do. Whether its watching TV, being at the airport, buying food at the store, talking on your cell or just driving down the street. They know what you are doing, where you are and when you are doing it. They are watching and listening to you all the time. You have now become a statistic. You are just a number, a bar code. If you are too young to spend money they don’t need you. If you are old, you have become a throw away that is too expensive to take care of. They are slowly taking away your food stamps (SNAP) and health benefit's so you will die. Your peace of mind and serenity have been manipulated into buying material things and for the most part your freedom of choice has been taken away. They continue to lie and say everything is OK and you really believe them... They want you to think that drugs and alcohol are to have a good time and not addictive. They don’t care because all they want is for you to do spend money. That is what its all about. You are officially living in a very sick society and have been for a while now....
Did you know it takes more energy to ignore someone than it does to stop and say hello? Did you know that the space it takes in your brain could be used for something more useful? Its a constant battle to force the negative thoughts out and think of more positive things. All it takes is one accidental meeting to trigger a few days bad thoughts. I seen my oldest son yesterday. The irony is, It was his birthday. He hasn’t spoken to me in a few years and I kind of know why but I really don't because it could be ironed out with a little understanding. He chooses to keep the issues and anger locked inside of him. This will only provoke him to use drugs in the future. Resentment has always been one of his biggest problems. Not with me but with everyone and everything. This young man has had problems since he was a child. He was a problem child in school when he was very young. It is called "Oppositional defiant". I am kind of clipping this short because it is such an old story that its tiring for me keep on thinking or writing about it. I write about this now because of yesterday and only to get rid of it today. He was the biggest contributor to the break up of my family years ago. The drugs, D.W.I.s, anger and the all the institutions and half-way houses finally led to 15 years of being clean and some father, son happiness. Then he started to drink and use drugs again. That led to crack and all the slime that goes with it. Again D.W.I.s and prison. He lost the house on a mountain top and his beautiful wife and kids. Along with that his business and the BMW. When I seen him yesterday sitting in Wal-Mart eating that Subway grinder I walked over to shake his hand and say Happy Birthday, he wouldn't even do that. I walked away laughing. That was my defense kicking in...I walked to an empty isle to calm down. It was pitiful and so sad...That's the story and when I write it down, it looks like I don't any problems, he does.....Wow, see it works...
The battleground between the political and ideological forces of right and left in the U.S. can be exhausting for everyone else, says Brian Neal, financial adviser at Hefty Wealth Partners in Auburn, Ind. “Our society is getting a little nervous watching the tug of war going on in Washington,” he says. This was brought home by the shutdown in the federal government for 16 days last October, he adds. If people are not happy with whoever occupies the White House, it’s easier to move if they can afford it. President Obama has an approval rating of 43.2% for his 22nd quarter in office, less than Ronald Reagan (64%) and Bill Clinton (61.6%) at the same time, according to a Gallup poll released last month, but more than 35.8% for George W. Bush and 26% for Richard Nixon.
There have been many things.. Success in the Military Police National Guard for 6 years. I had great job as airport Electrician at Bradley Int. airport for 20 years. I was a Career employee of the Federal Government at the Subase hospital in Groton Connecticut for 3 years and for the past 3 years I have been a vegetarian. But by far the best achievement to date for sure is that I been Sober, without a drink or a substitute for 37 years and I have never been so grateful for anything in my life.. That alone is a miracle..
I was about a half hour early for a meeting this morning so I stopped under the Gold Star bridge on Route 95 in Groton Connecticut and took a few pictures of that huge span and the Thames river in the rain with my Sony 10x DSC-120 Digital Still Camera...Its a versatile camera capable of making UTube videos and High definition pictures.. Its pocket size and I take it everywhere. Its perfect for what I do. Its very interesting to hear the roar of the Holiday traffic from under that thing.. I'll post the pictures on my page this week or next week some time.. ..
If this was Northern Ireland in the late 60’s through the 90’s without the cell phones and cameras the Army and Swat Police would be beating and killing these people right now…
I moved to the shoreline of Connecticut in August of 2008. Lately I have been able to withdraw into myself to think deep thoughts about my fate in the not to distant future.
With the help of my God, it is so peaceful and calming I don’t believe it myself. The miracle of letting go of the past and the willingness to be alone. Getting old is a one time experience that I have been blessed to accept with grace and happiness. I don’t worry about the unknown or what happens.. What ever the future holds for me I have a confidence that I will be peaceful and content.. I accept that..
Not to long ago at one time I was a little kid.. We all were.. I miss back then.. I was small. Innocent…. Now, years later there is a feeling of loneliness and I miss things.. I miss the old town I lived in, the people, my friends. Lately I have discovered you can visit but you can never go back.. You can go back to the town but everything is changed. The buildings are gone. It seems like things changed over night. It even smells different… I’m at an age now where you start thinking about genes and health.. I’m so blessed when it comes to that.. It seems like yesterday that I was going to the Catholic school in my little town.. I remember that like it was yesterday…We try to hang on to what we can but it still changes. The people we knew, our parents the material things. Everything changes. The older you get the time moves faster and faster. Now it seems you don’t have time to enjoy a moment anymore. You put up imaginary fences and walls to keep out the bad guys and thoughts but some manage to slither through.. These days its hard to tell the difference between the good and the bad. There are a lots of innocents that will never be the same again. I do everything I can to live and let live but I have a compassion for those who I know will never be able to live, what I consider normal life. They will never have what I had and still have… At times I worry but under the surface there is a peace and understanding, a subtle happiness that I have earned through the years.. That I will never lose.. I wait now with a content and a comfortable feeling to be voided out..
Back to basics and start over.. Start with a different place to live.
Don’t Ever Become a Keyword because you were involved in or did something bad because till the end of your existence you will be held responsible. You guessed it! I have some new keywords…
There are a lot of Samsung Galaxy S3 errors and problems reported by users online and one of them is the occasional shutting down of the device with no apparent cause. Many users reported this problem reached its peak shortly after the rollout of Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean update. According to them, there is no telling it when their phone shuts off and there seemed to be no apparent trigger to such behavior.
Relative to this issue are the cases of some users who reported they also experienced occasional reboots. Their Samsung Galaxy S3 reportedly freezes, shuts down and turns itself on again. It does not happen often but the time it does, it would take a few minutes before users can actually use their device again. That’s a bad shot whenever someone calls you or you’re calling someone; you may be cut off while you are in the middle of the conversation.
Considering this problem occurred after the update, there is a greater possibility it is software-related. Now here are some ways that have been proven to be effective in resolving this issue.
First Solution
When your Galaxy S3 shuts down, take out the battery and let your device sit without a power for 10 minutes. That should be enough to drain some energy stored in its capacitors and semiconductors.
After 10 minutes, re-insert the battery and turn your phone on again. This solution is really that simple but proven effective. So, before you actually do something far more serious with your device due to occasional reboot or shut off, do this solution first and see if it works.
Second Solution
From the Home screen tap on Menu button on the left side of the Home button.
Choose Settings among other options and choose About phone.
Tap on Software Updates to manually initiate search for available updates for your phone. It might just be the thing you need to fix this issue. After all, manufacturers are always listening to their consumers to know what the problems are with their device. In Android, updates are often the carrier of bug fixes.
Third Solution
In case the issue wasn’t resolved with the first two solutions presented above, backup all your important data, settings, SMS messages, etc and get ready to reset your device.
Tap on Menu from the Home screen and choose Settings.
Choose Backup and Reset. You can back your data up using this option or you can do the manual way.
Select Factory Data Reset.
Now tap on Reset Device followed with Delete All.
It may take a few seconds but after that, you need to Reboot your phone to give it a fresh start. Your device has now been restored to its factory state.
If the problem persists after doing all of these solutions, it may be the time you contact your provider to have your device checked by a technician and replaced if necessary. At least, you have exhausted all possible workarounds to solve this problem.
There is a new phenomenon in this country…New Laws are being made that circumvent existing laws to fit the crimes of the politicians, the rich and famous or anybody that fits certain profiles. I will give you an example. In doing my research, yes, I do research. I have read and seen this happen, down through the years. The same crimes, lesser penalties. Special prisons for certain criminals. Years ago if you were a foreigner. Are you ready for this? You were deported if you committed a crime. Try that now. I think everyone guilty of committing a crime belongs in a Federal or State prison. Nothing in the middle. Do you want to save a few bucks? Close all those country club jails. Send the so-called white collar criminals (woman Included ) to a real prison with no special privileges. I think a few years with a bunkmate named Bubba or Abdul will help deter future crimes from that individual. More importantly the crimes committed by our politicians should be exposed immediately and the suspect sent to his home state until the problem is rectified. No press conferences whining about the miscarriage of justice they are being accused of. If you put yourself in a position for bad things to happen it usually does. The idea is when you are elected by the people and sent to Washington you to try to represent the people fairly and be a decent human being by setting an example for the good people of this country…It would also be a good idea to stop the lawyers from running this country and give it back to the people.
I live my life by certain rules. Its more of a “Code of Conduct” than anything else. I said that to someone the other day and surprised myself. I started to think about it and this is what I came up with. I mean, I know that there are things I won’t do or lines I won’t cross. Its also knowing the consequences that prevents me from upsetting the apple cart.
1. I must realize that I can’t control the things that happen around me or the decisions that other people make.
2. I have to remember each day, that somewhere there is a God that will help me to NOT wonder why everything is happening, not only to me but to everyone else.
3. I must remember each day to let that God take care of me and the people around me but I cannot to stop caring about everyone.
4. Take a long look at myself and my behavior now and in the past and try not to repeat the negative things.
5. Discuss and tell the truth to someone or my God about my negative behavior.
6. Have the desire and the ability to let past discretions be forgiven and not to hold grudges.
7. I must have humility realizing that everything isn’t always about me.
8. If necessary make a list, on paper of people I have hurt or have been at fault for hurting.
9. I will apologize to the people that I have offended, not getting anyone angry while doing this. This could be complicated but it is possible.
10. Each day I must remember the things I have done and if I do anything to hurt someone voluntarily or involuntarily, immediately admit it and apologize.
11. I must work on these rules each day, not expecting things to change overnight.
12. Having discovered that by living by this code, I should be helping others with kindness and patience and living each day being tolerant with everyone.
"I know some who are constantly drunk on books as other men are drunk on whiskey." - H.L. Mencken
April 10, 1926: On this day, American satirist H.L. Mencken proposed (presumably in jest) a new outcome to presidential elections: Losing candidates should be tossed into the Potomac River.
Ignorance Personified.
Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don,t waste anything. Mention the chemicals and growth hormones and steroids and the torture and pain of a slaughter house.
Free all the Whales and creatures and close all the Aquariums. Its cruel and inhumane to keep to keep them in captivity. Keep those researchers locked in a cage naked. Make them perform for scraps of food. Watch their behavior. See how long they will stay sane. If you want to learn anything about sea creatures go on the Internet, believe me its all there. The animals have been tortured long enough.

Its inappropriate especially when you realize most of these young woman commit suicide in their 30's. The others will die of a disease by their 40's. I don't think any of them reach 50 years old.
Thank you for your feedback but after doing the research on you I discovered that there is a sickness or sadness, a certain ignorance around you that I feel sorry for. It worry's me that an uneducated sick person with wet brain is somehow walking around free. Your social skills are in desperate need of work but I realize you didn't have a chance because it looks like you quit school in the 2nd grade. However, now I think its more important for you to find out who your real parents are and what your wife or girlfriend are doing right now. I realize its too late for you because you are disliked every where you go. I feel really bad that you are so selfish and blind to the innocence around you.
Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. They don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or who dies...

Your social skills are in desperate need of work but I realize you didn't have a chance because it looks like you quit school in the 2nd grade. However, now I think its more important for you to find out who your real parents are and what your wife or girlfriend are doing right now. I realize its too late for you because you are disliked every where you go. I feel really bad that you are so selfish and blind to the innocence around you.
Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. They don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or who dies...
In comparison, we as humans (most of us who qualify as humans that is) although we take up space, we are smaller than a grain of sand on the beach and mean absolutely nothing... In time, no matter who you are or what you have done or how much money you have, no one will care or even know you existed.. We are not even dust in the wind..
Due to the certification process, organic foods may cost slightly more, but a little extra in cost may bring huge health savings. Conventional, or non-organic, coffee may contain residue from synthetic chemical fertilizers and pesticides. These residues may cause cancer, nervous system disturbances, hormone imbalance or irritation to skin and eyes, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. When you consume organic coffee, you won't get any chemical residues or harmful health side effects.
Irish poet William Allingham (born March 19, 1824) achieved a moderate level of fame during his lifetime, but he is best remembered for his posthumously published diary, which was edited by his wife. The diary details his entertaining encounters with Alfred Tennyson, Thomas Carlyle, and other famous writers.

My Travels
In the past 12 months I have been in 8 States. It sounds like more if I say the whole East Coast of the United States and I'm not done yet... I've been to and I'll put them in the order of where I spent the night. Roanoke Rapids N.C., Brunswick Ga. then to Bradington Fla. where I swam in the Gulf of Mexico... Back up the coast to Savannah Ga., Manning Ga.,Fayatteville N.C., Joppa Md., Then after some time off I went to Dorset Vt., Cobleskill N.Y. and last but not least Clarks Summit Pa. In the Spring I'll be going back to Dorset to stay for a few days. Then from there I don't really know yet.. We will see Stay tuned..

Thank you.. I was about 10 years when my Dad told me stuff. I remember the Deer on the front lawn of the mansion. They put Christmas lights on it. The white house next door had beautiful lights on it. I remember the portico in front of the mansion. I remember thinking there was a horse drawn carriage there.. I was very young with a vivid imitation. My dad told things and through the years things blend together. I do know it was horrible to destroy that work of art..
"Big Driver", is a Stephen King TV movie. For a Lifetime flick it has some spunk. Maria Bello playing a famous writer saves the day in this revenge thriller.. You knew it was a revenge movie didn't you? Joan Jett played a bartender and did a good job also. It was good to see her.. Fritz the cat played his part very well being snuggley and purring on Q. This movie surprised me. It kept me interested.. Just when I thought Stephen King was pass`e. I believe casting is very important..and what goes around comes around... It looked like it was filmed somewhere in Connecticut. I thought I recognized route 84 past the Hartford area maybe up near Union..
Favorite line is, "The lighting out here is downright smuggie".
...Hey, its a good movie.. Check it out..
Vinyl is a show that has very predictable ending. An early death from a sexual tranmitted desease, drug use, lung cancer and alcoholism. I think Scorsese and Jagger are exaggerating or suffering from visions of grandeur. OK I think Jagger is bragging because of his age (72). If you have to expose the insanity of this business to make money you are really reaching although I think its more wishful thinking. I accept that but this show will end this season with cancellation because its unbelievable and an sleazy example of the record business.....

While I was hanging around yesterday I was thinking…The shooting and killing is going on all over the country. A Congress woman, God bless her, gets shot and now our Washington, wanna be big wigs want to carry guns…Its like no one else counts. Everyday people are dying from guns. Did they just notice this? They think its about them. Everyday somebody gets shot or stabbed because of a bad drug deal. Didn't they hear about the school shootings, the work shootings, the drive-by shootings, the angry husband or wife shootings and the kids killing kids. My God, a 10 year old boy just walked up behind his Mother and shot her in the back of the head over doing chores. Are they blind? A lot of people die because of the anger and rage in this country. Don’t they realize that some of this anger is because of their inept decision making and corruption. Its like when your local News team interviews someone standing on the street and person says “I didn’t think something like this would happen in my neighborhood”? Hey, wake up moron. The bad guys and sickos pop up where you least expect it. Depression greed and hate is rampid. Its everywhere. The kid that shot those people is insane. These are copycat murders. His parents are saying they are sorry. Sorry! I don’t care how old he is or if he lived in a cave! Where were his parents and so called friends when he was showing the warning signs. There are warning signs…This insanity happens every day, all over the country. It’s the Lawyers, Loopholes and the Law that keep the sick people from getting help. Our so called Washington leaders are all Lawyers and the law makers and only care about themselves. All they care about making deals and under the table scams. There is no one there that can make a decision without getting something in return, worrying about what someone is going to say or thinking about getting reelected. Tell me that isn’t true! That’s what its all about. Its getting worse every day…The question is who is going to die today, because they certainty don’t care…

Being retired I can do these things without problems. Go to bed at a certain time. 11 pm or there about. Get up same time between 8 and 9. Don't isolate. If I can't sleep (not often) I do not get up. I listen to a book on CD in bed. It works, I always fall asleep. Go, leave the house even if its only for a ride in the car. Leave your cell phone home. I live near the ocean. I walk on the beach and have clean positive thoughts. Be able to talk to a trusted someone. Don't drink alcohol or use drugs. No TV. No news and commercials I watch Movies and some TV shows of my choice on the internet. Eat healthy. Yes, a few snacks are OK. They do put chemicals in meat and brutely kill animals. I've been an almost vegan vegetarian for 4 years. Life is not about control. Learn to let things go. Think about it. No one really cares. Compliment someone. Smile for no reason at all. Say something nice to a stranger. Help someone like I'm helping you. Take a walk every night even if its freezing or raining. That's why they make umbrellas and warm coats. Walk in the warm rain with no umbrella and get wet. All this takes training and nothing happens overnight.. Oh and always thank God for keeping you healthy even if its only for a day. If you don't like someone, pray for them. That is a routine...Oh, one more thing. If I could give you a big giant hug I would do that too...
The lies, corruption and it doesn't feel like its for the people any more. There are roits and protests all over the world.. It seems like its about Limos, body guards, private jets, wars, killing, pharmaceuticals and drugs. I haven't voted since the first Bush. I will not be responsible for their actions. Its only thier ego - Narcissict Billionaires who have no idea what the real people want and feel. To them we are only Peons. Now its all about Lawyers, campaign donations and families running for that office.. I don't know how they live with themselves? Even if my one vote made a difference I am not nor will I ever be responsible for their actions or any the insanity out there today..

Where does all the"Fast Food" come from... Fact - 70 percent of all medically-important antibiotics in the U.S. are sold for use on chickens, cattle, pigs and turkeys -- not people. Industrial farms routinely feed antibiotics to animals that aren’t sick to make them grow faster and survive crowded, unsanitary conditions and that helps breed dangerous drug-resistant bacteria that can give people difficult-to-treat infections. The Chickens are locked in small cages suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me, they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. If you knew how they make Fish-sticks you would never eat that swill again. Hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. They don't waste anything. They bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Remember the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig scream?

John Kenneth "Jiggs" McDonald is a sportscaster who has done play-by-play announcing for NHL games for more than 40 years. In 1990, McDonald received the Foster Hewitt Memorial Award from the Hockey Hall of Fame.
TOLERANCE
Jiggs McDonald, NHL Hall of Fame broadcaster speaking in Ontario,says:
"I am truly perplexed that so many of my friends are against another mosque being built in Toronto. I think it should be the goal of every Canadian to be tolerant regardless of their religious beliefs. Thus the mosque should be allowed, in an effort to promote tolerance." "That is why I also propose that two nightclubs be opened next door to the mosque; thereby promoting tolerance from within the mosque. We could call one of the clubs, which would be gay, "The Turban Cowboy," and the other, a topless bar, would be called "You Mecca Me Hot." "Next door should be a butcher shop that specializes in pork, and adjacent to that an open-pit barbecue pork restaurant, called "Iraq of Ribs." "Across the street there could be a lingerie store called "Victoria Keeps Nothing Secret," with sexy mannequins in the window modeling the goods.", and on the other side a liquor store called "Morehammered." "All of this would encourage Muslims to demonstrate the tolerance they demand of us." Yes we should promote tolerance,and you can do your part by passing this on."

Giving someone a drug to save them is a good thing. After they are saved is another story. The saved person has to want to stop using and that is the hard part because there is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. It is a mental, physical and spiritual disease. When you stop using drugs or even drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. It is the only disease that tells you don't have a disease. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to survive.

DID YOU KNOW As you walk up the steps to the building which house the U.S. Supreme Court you can see near the top of the building a row of the world's law givers and each one is facing one in the middle who is facing forward with a full frontal view ...It is Moses and he is holding the Ten Commandments!
DID YOU KNOW? As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the two huge oak doors have the Ten Commandments engraved on each lower portion of each door.
DID YOU KNOW? As you sit inside the courtroom, you can see the wall, right above where the Supreme Court Judges sit, a display of the Ten Commandments
DID YOU KNOW? There are Bible Verses etched in stone all over the Federal Buildings and Monuments in Washington, D.C.
DID YOU KNOW? James Madison, the fourth president, known as 'The Father of Our Constitution' made the Following statement: 'We have staked the whole of all our political Institutions upon the capacity of mankind for Self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to The Ten Commandments of God.'
DID YOU KNOW? Every session of Congress begins with a prayer by a paid preacher, whose salary has been paid by the taxpayer since 1777.
DID YOU KNOW? Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were members of the established Orthodox churches in the colonies..
DID YOU KNOW? Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep their authority and instead of Interpreting the law would begin making law an oligarchy: the rule of few over many. How then, have we gotten to the point that everything we have done for 220 years in this Country is now suddenly wrong and Unconstitutional? Let’s put it around the world and let the world see and remember what this great country was Built on The Holy Bible and belief in GOD!
"You are what what you eat." - Michael Pollan
Happy birthday, Michael Pollan! The American author and journalist got us all thinking about what's for dinner—or, more accurately, what should be for dinner—in his 2006 nonfiction book, The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals.

Two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Barbara W. Tuchman (born January 30, 1912) created her own law of historical research. Tuchman's Law—first coined in her 1978 book, A Distant Mirror—is a psychological principle of "subjective probability" that leads chroniclers of history to depict events' negative effects as being much more pervasive than they might actually be.

Being from the old school this needs to be done in feet and miles. 5280 feet in a mile. I know what a Light year is. Traveling at 186,000 miles a second for one year, 365 days.

Chaney Mason…He was a lawyer I think…Oh, Wasn’t he that lawyer guy that gave everyone the finger. I don’t know why?
What is very disappointing to me are the writers, young performers, singers, actors, sports stars who die from drinking or drug overdoses. F. Scott Fitzgerald (The Great Gatsby) drank himself to death because he could not stop drinking. Earnest Hemingway put a shotgun in his mouth and pulled the trigger because he could not stop drinking.. Michael Jackson hired a doctor to shoot him up.. The Doctor overdose him… How's that working out for you Michael? There will never be another singer like Whitney Huston, died of drownig becauce drug addiction. So did her daughter. Amy Winehouse drank herself to death. Lawrence Taylor was the greatest New York Giant linebacker in the world. Drug addict… So many more I didn't name… How many more will die in 2016.. The waste is horrendous. I cry for these kids. All that talent is gone because of addiction.

Egyptian court rules against virginity tests - CNN
"Cairo (CNN) -- An Egyptian administrative court issued an order Tuesday banning virginity tests for female detainees, months after several women alleged they were subjected to such examinations following a March protest in Cairo's Tahrir Square.
The ruling comes in the case of Samira Ibrahim, a 25-year-old marketing manager who took the country's military led-government to court in August, alleging she was among those subjected to the test after her arrest during the March 9 protest. She said she faced death threats after bringing the case."
Comment.....Think you have heard it all? Well you have now...
My question is, what is going to happen to the Jihadist terrorist who blows himself up to get his grimy paws on those 40 virgins when he gets to Allah land or where ever these freaks go after they die. I mean how will he know if he is getting what he died for. It could be that one of those so-called Virgins was a drug addict hooker from the streets of Baghdad. Are these dead woman going to be tested before dying or after dying?
Another thought is....Do the Muslims check those young Muslim girls in the United States before they marry them? You know the girls that go to your local High School and hang around with those promiscuous white teen girls that watch MTV and those sexy movies. You know how they talk to each other...These days they are tempted and teased into trying anything... Aren't these young Muslim things promised to some old guy when they get a certain age? How will they know they haven't been violated by some High School jock? Hey, this sounds like an episode of L&O Special Victims unit....I can see the Muslim dad now trying to check his daughter with a retractable ruler, yelling don't move, stay still you little Bitch. I need to sell you to Abdula...

If you are flying a Drone over my house and property, the house and property I pay taxes for, a house where my wife and kids are, in this Insane world the way it is, you are a problem to me now. I have a right to my privacy! Here in Connecticut we have a psychopath moron kid who has made low passes over girls at the beach in the summer and has even mounted a hand gun and flame thrower on a drone. I don't have to say anymore. Do I? The precedent has been set..
My advice.........Stop eating at McDonald's, Burger King and any of the fried chicken places.. Eat only meat that you know where it came from.. Not injected with steroids and growth hormones..The food they serve in those places is loaded with chemicals. The way they mass produce chicken, cattle and pigs and the way they slaughter them I will never eat meat again. The Beef and Pigs are injected with growth hormones to mass produce them. The same thing with Chickens. They are locked in small cages suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. Did you ever see how they make fish sticks? The same as hot dogs. They grind up every thing they cut off the fish including the eyes and guts...The oceans are poisoned with Mercury. Remember the Mercury warnings? They don’t tell you that anymore. Its worse now. Now its oil, radiation and what ever else they dump in the ocean. Don’t you ever believe that they care because they don’t. Remember when you could trust the producers of food. Well don’t! Look at all the over weight people from eating McDonald’s, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Wendy’s just to mention a few, limping around this country. Believe me, No one cares! I call them the FFF’s …. Fast Food Fat…
Commercials, Ads, Pop-ups, or obnoxious videos without permission is an invasion of privacy and deserve any negative action against them.

He beat that little girl to death with a golf club iron and is a convicted murderer. If he gets a new trial the Judge has been bribed and is corrupt. That is how he got a new trial. They bribed a corrupt Judge with Kennedy money..
Thank you for your feedback but I feel there is a sickness or sadness, a certain ignorance around you that I feel sorry for. It worry's me that an uneducated person like yourself is walking around free. Your social skills are in desperate need of work but I realize you didn't have a chance because it looks like you quit school in the 2nd grade. However, now I think its more important for you to find out who your real parents are and what your wife or girlfriend are doing right now. However, its still to late for you because you are disliked every where you go. I feel really bad that you are so selfish and blind to the innocence around you.

Mac you are so right, they are real. In this new society with the Illinois Politician at the helm you have to be careful what you say about that segment of society. In other words the minority. Having said that, the majority of people if you can call them that, who are in prison are black..Be careful not to say that too loud the labels are flying all over the place. Don't fret, it will never change. The more complaints that are made will keep it alive and well. Thank you for sharing, I couldn't have said it better....
Armed with machine guns and machetes Connecticut's brave officers of the Dept. of Environmental Protection set out to kill anything that stood in their way.. Bears, Ducks, Skunks, Geese and Possums didn't stand a chance as they shot and Killed everything in the woods.. My God I feel much safer now.. I'll be able to sleep tonight.. ....
People this time are afraid. .. Things do have to change.. The rules of the past are no longer applicable to 2015. The days of "Give me your poor" are over. Its really too dangerous to do that now. Good people are dieing for no reason. Trust is gone. Hate is over shadowing honesty.. Think about it... they are even changing the names of things to try and forget the past...
Keep in mind that in the United States every hour one person is killed by a drunk driver and its one of the reasons for all the horrible crimes committed today..
"Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen" - Jesus Christ
"Jesus 7–2 BC to 30–33 AD, also referred to as Jesus of Nazareth or Jesus Christ, is the central figure of Christianity, whom the teachings of most Christian denominations hold to be the Son of God. Christianity regards Jesus as the awaited Messiah of the Old Testament." - Wikipedia
Having been brought up in different world. A world where respect, love, honesty and family was the most important thing. It seems to me things have changed so fast its hard to believe people are like they are today. They have no idea why or what the Holidays are. The peace and serenity of the real Holidays is gone. Now its all about Greed. The fools that stand in those lines on Mondays, Black Friday or any day like that are the new America. They can only be described as Clones that have no idea what life is all about. No idea what it was really like. Its so sad and pathetic. I don't want or need anything from any of those horrible places…..

You seem to have no problem finding an Internet connection? Do the places you stop have this connection.. Do you tether the connection from your cell? How do you find the connection all the time? Videos are great and on time. Its amazing.. Great job...
There is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. It is a mental, physical and spiritual disease. When you stop using drugs or drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. It is the only disease that tells you don't have a disease. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to survive.
"You know you are addicted when you say to someone you can control your drug use. Some actually feel that they can cure themselves by not drinking or using drugs for short periods of time. Let me make this clear. If you are alcoholic or a drug addict, there is no cure. Addiction is a disease of progression. In other words, it is not a cure to stop drinking for short periods of time. When you use again and you will, it will usually get worse not better. The desperately sick and addicted as a last resort will spend any amount of money to relieve themselves of the desire and compulsion to drink. Alcohol and drugs will control your life. Alcoholism and drug addiction is disease like no other. It is a disease that tells you are not sick and that its OK to drink or use drugs again after you quit for a short period of time. Believe me, its not. Total abstinence for the rest of your life one day at a time is the only way to stop the craving and desire to drink or use drugs. Did you ever quit smoking only later to smoke one cigarette and find yourself smoking like before you quit only more. Smoking is another addiction that is very hard to stop....Well, it’s the same with drinking or using drugs. Usually young people start drinking alcohol because of peer pressure. After a while it becomes the thing to do to fit in and feel good about doing questionable things. The alcohol commercials are proving that. Take my word for it, their goal is to get you hooked. To start you drinking. The younger the better. The cigerette are proof of that. For woman, your inhibitions will disappear because of drinking and drugging. In the past you thought about what your parents would think or what the consequences would be of your behavior. When woman drink or use drugs they lose their dignity or that "Healthy caution" and will do things they wouldn’t normally do. They become prey for the perverts. Did you ever wake up in the morning and not remember what you did the night before? Wonder where the black and blue marks came from or where the car was? No, well wait! You will! This will go on until someone suggests to you to try Marijuana. I don't care what they say! Marijuana is a stepping stone drug and if you use it, it will, more than likely lead to the use of other addictive drugs like prescription drugs, crack cocaine or heroin. Its only be a matter of time. It will be easier than drinking and it will make you feel high faster.. With woman its all about emotions, feelings and feeling good, so off you go. With most guys its about being shy and lacking self-confidence. Alcohol and drugs will allow that "false courage" and you will do things that you see on TV or in the movies. You will take those chances that you normally wouldn't. That usually leads to pain or death.. For some, addiction is a slow process. If you just drink it could take years but when you add drugs to the mix it won’t take as long. Alcohol will bankrupt you physically, mentally and spiritually. Some are lucky enough to hit bottom before they do too much damage. For others it will take longer and the longer it takes the odds are that before they can get help that person will find jail or death"….
Have they been Immunized? Can they speak English? Do they have papers and passports? How much education do they have? If they are sick can we send them back or quarantine them? Do they have money? Who is going to feed them? Where are they going to live? What about Medical care? How about a Bank account? Who are they related to and are they angry at Americans? Will they want them to come to America?

New rule is the kids need to know why they are getting gifts? Whose birthday it is? Why is it called Christmas? You need to ask these questions after Thanksgiving and then ask, why do we have Thanksgiving?
Now the work really begins because there is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. When you stop using drugs or drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to survive.
"Marijuana smoke smoke contains a similar range of harmful chemicals to that of tobacco smoke (including bronchial irritants, tumor promoters and carcinogens. As inhaled smoke comes into contact with airway and lung before being absorbed into the bloodstream, it is likely to affect the respiratory system. Risk of respiratory effects from inhaling marijuana smoke are heightened by the more intensive way in which marijuana is smoked -- when smoking marijuana compared to tobacco, there is a prolonged and deeper inhalation and it is smoked to a shorter butt length and at a higher combustion temperature. This results in approximately 5 times the carbon monoxide concentration, 3 times the tar, and the retention of one-third more tar in the respiratory tract. Higher levels of ammonia and hydrogen cyanide have also been found in marijuana smoke, compared to tobacco. A 2011 systematic review of the research concluded that long-term marijuana smoking is associated with an increased risk of some respiratory problems, including an increase in cough, sputum production, airway inflammation, and wheeze – similar to that of tobacco smoking. However, no consistent association has been found between marijuana smoking and measures of airway dysfunction. Occasional and low cumulative marijuana use has not been associated with adverse effects on pulmonary function the effects of heavier use are less clear. Additionally, many marijuana smokers also smoke tobacco, which further increases the harm. Numerous studies have found that the harmful effects of smoking marijuana and tobacco appear to be additive, with more respiratory problems in those who smoke both substances than in those who only smoke one or the other."

In the United States every hour one person is killed by a drunk driver. There is no “Cure” for the disease of Addiction. Alcohol, drugs and phrma are triggers for anger, fear, paranoia and rage. It is the reason why our is like it is today...When you stop using drugs or drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The fatal progression of the addiction disease never stops. It is the only disease that tells you don't have a disease. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to survive.

The U.S. National debt recently topped $18 trillion...
I applied for my Veterans benefits 3 months ago and have heard nothing.. No Cost of living raise in my Social Security and no benefits and now the U.S. national debt recently topped $18 trillion dollars...
Did they relocate the Graves of the patients that passed away while they were inmates there? Will they relocate them? If so where? I know exactlly where they are if they need help finding them...
Thank you for your feedback but I feel there is a sickness or sadness, a certain ignorance around you that I feel sorry for. It worry's me that an uneducated person like yourself is walking around free. Your social skills are in desperate need of work but I realize you didn't have a chance because it looks like you quit school in 4th grade. However, now I think its more important for you to find out who your real parents are. However, its still to late for you because you are disliked every where you go. I feel really bad that you are so selfish and blind to the innocence around you.
Coming soon to America driving on odd and even days... Your plate number used to identify you. Hefty fine if caught driving on the wrong day.. Its almost impossible to get to New York by car on Rt 95 in the morning... Believe me there is a reason they are building a new Bus system and improving the rail system..
Fact - 70 percent of all medically-important antibiotics in the U.S. are sold for use on chickens, cattle, pigs and turkeys -- not people. Industrial farms routinely feed antibiotics to animals that aren’t even sick to help them grow faster and survive crowded, unsanitary conditions -- and that helps breed dangerous drug-resistant bacteria that can give people difficult-to-treat infections. The Chickens are locked in small cages suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me, they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. If you knew how they make Fish-sticks you would never eat that crap again. Hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don't waste anything. You could mention that they bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Mention the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig scream? Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don,t waste anything. Mention the chemicals and growth hormones and steroids and the torture and pain of a slaughter house.
Malloy has no management or people skills and is unsympathetic to the poor. He feeds on money making and greed. He is bought and paid for by business and pretends to care but is shallow and ignorant. You can see right through him. I'm sure investigating him you will find some kind of corruption.. He is not a very bright person.. He almost got caught a while ago..His time will come...

In the past I have said to please confront me with any issues you may have. If I have said something or wrote something sarcastic and a few people have told me I have. Its usually a misunderstanding that can be corrected.. Holding on to a resentment especially a mistaken one can be devastating when you find out the truth later. I value and treasure anyone who corrects me because it helps me grow....
I've tried them all.. I use the one with the best Adware, Popup blocker and Ad block. Its learning how to these to your advantage that helps the most.. I have been using the Internet for years so its been a process of elimination. The good news is that I don't remember when I have seen a commercial or had a Pop-up.. That tells me it works great... I would change if I started having problems. My rule is always be able to change in a moments notice if need be.. Good luck out there none of this happens overnight. It takes time to learn what to do and what not to do... Be very careful they are watching.... You are being scrutinized, searched, listened too everywhere you go. From the highways and stores to Facebook and Google. Yes, you are...and there isn't a Blessed thing you or I can do about it...

There are many words to describe how beautiful your videos are. Professional, calming, reassuring, wonderful, peaceful, understanding, sensitive, presise, chrystal clear and knowledgeable just to mention a few...
Most of the fools that do this are wanna-be cops or big game hunters that put on pretend camouflage clothes to kill a harmless creature that can't shoot back. The fact is they are cowards with visions of grandeur. Bed wetters that were left by their parents and were never taught to be careful because what goes around comes around. Beautiful harmless deer will be killed because a corrupt politician received a donation from a hunting club and can't renege on a promise to these cowards.
Do you think the Sexual assaults and rapes have something to with this? Why won't a leader address that? Does a college party remind you of drinking and now proscription drug use? Remember pot party's? Well pot is legal now.. Do you think these statistics are going to get lower? Will your leaders do something about this? In the past few weeks young people are dieing in car wrecks. Do you think they were sober or was it because of drinking or drug use? Did your leaders hide that fact. Hey I know... Lessons and classes on what happens when drugs and alcohol lower a persons inhibitions. Its called consequences. You morons haven't seen anything yet.
Commercials, Ads, Pop-ups, or obnoxious videos without permission is an invasion of privacy and deserve any negative action against them. I will never buy anything or condone any interruption in my service. I will make it my goal in life to discourage anybody and everybody from putting up with the insanity these bottom feeders try to sell.. You have my word on that....
I hope a Bear didn't attack this hiker.. You would have to call Stephanie Rivkin's friends from Connecticut's gang of brave wanna-bes from the "Department of Environmental Protection" to kill it.

"In the late 1600’s and 1700’s, Norwich Connecticut was an important colonial seaport trading with the West Indies. Slaves were imported to Southeastern Connecticut from the West Indies during this period. They became personal servants, laborers and craftsmen. By 1756, the Black community numbered 223. Many had purchased their own freedom or had been freed by their owners. Former slave Guy Druck, a blacksmith, built this house at 76 Church St. in the 1850’s. His skills were renowned and actively sought by ship builders for components such as anchors.
Old Newgate Prison was a Colonial American prison in what is now East Granby, Connecticut. It is now a historic site. The prison was originally a copper mine, opened in 1705, and is believed to be the first copper mine in America. After mining operations proved unprofitable, the colony of Connecticut converted it to a prison, like its London namesake Newgate Prison. The first prisoner, John Hinson, was committed for burglary in 1773. Later Tories and Loyalists were held here during the American Revolutionary War. In 1790 it became a state prison, the first such in America. In 1827, the remaining 81 prisoners were transferred to the new, "state-of-the-art" Wethersfield State Prison. After the prison closed, mining operations resumed for a time but since the 1860s it has been mainly a tourist attraction. Nearby Peak Mountain offers a bird's eye view of Old Newgate Prison from the Metacomet Trail. In 1972 Old Newgate Prison was declared a National Historic Landmark. The site is now owned and administered by the State of Connecticut as a museum.
This building is a magnet to people like this.. It is an eyesore to the community. That and that train station should have been torn down years ago.. The asbestos and mold odor coming from those place's is at times overwhelming. Fires, painting walls, rocks through windows, mysterious flags on the old flag pole. Same old Windsor Locks with the one sided Main St. lingers on. For years the historical society has collected money for the repair of that smelly train station... Why isn't something being done? Why is that factory still there? Larry Ferrari

Yesterday the discussion at my Thursday morning breakfast meeting turned into a lesson of character defects to the extreme. Examples of what crazy things we do and can happen when we become envious and gossip. These things do happen to all of us at one time or another. We talked about what to do and what not to do when confronted with feeling angry and stressful in these times of uncertainty and what to do when you are grateful that things are going your way. Personally I think it takes years to learn how to manage your life and be successful and comfortable with yourself at the same time. Some never learn and are stuck in a groove, living a life of hate and contempt trying to take down other people. However, smart people learn by consequences and the mistakes they make. When all around us, especially in the building where I live I am surrounded by people who are jealous and want to be like me or want what I have. Which is by the way, a quiet happiness and the mystery of a real smile. Some of these people I might add are the kind of people that try to, "eat Chop Suey with one chop stick" . I do know that none of us want to feel that guilt and remorse later when we hurt someone by gossiping or slandering them, causing them to be angry. Lets face it, we all want to be safe, have the kindest and most beautiful girlfriend in the world, no bills and the nicest car. Today, I think we have to expect less and be content with what we have and like it or not some of us have to step aside. Its really not important to be perfect and be in the front of the line all the time. The idea is to stop criticizing and let the other person step in front of you. You should do this with the compassion and kindness you lost but can find buried somewhere in your soul. You should help just a little. I guarantee you will feel better about yourself.
Stephanie Rivkin the bears they killed is on you.. I know you don't care but sooner or later you will. Your conscience will not let you forget.. A video, a moment in the sun, that little bit recognition will soon fade and you will become a who? Oh, that weird woman who had the bears killed. I'll pray for you because your future is not very bright.. Lovers of animals who feel that "live and let live" will be with for all time. Steph you really messed up this time. You can't hide..You haven't begun to feel the consequences.
People are over dosing and dieing and addiction is on the front page these days. Why is that? We have a Governor here in Connecticut who OK-ed the sale of marijuana. Most people stopped smoking Cigarettes and he does this.. Pot is addictive and worse than Cigarettes. Medical marijuana now hits the street. Is it about the money? You would think your Governor would know better because rumor has it his son and nephew are a problem drug users. I guess if you were born a fool you stay a fool..
What is going on? No one cared before. Family's ruined, son's and daughters dead or in jail. No one cared? All of a sudden its a big deal... Good! I hope they see the light. Michael is right only kids do learn by example! Set limits. Turn off that lousy gamer and TV and go out and play.. Then come home for supper where everyone sits down and eats together. Supervision and family unity. Try it! The words please and no goes a long way....
My tongue got in the way of my eye teeth and I couldn't see what I was saying.
Contrary to popular belief, to an addictive personally Marijuana is a stepping stone drug and will lead to the use of heavier drugs like prescription drugs, crack cocaine or heroin. At that point its only be a matter of time.
Thank you for sharing Todd.. And correcting my spelling, that was priceless. However.. You being a Pot-head must realize that any smoke you breath, if you breath it long enough will kill you. And Todd while I'm on the subject. Contrary to popular belief, to an addictive personally Marijuana is a stepping stone drug and will lead to the use of heavier drugs like prescription drugs, crack cocaine or heroin. Its only be a matter of time. Be careful my friend, lung cancer is not pretty....
As far back as I can remember my dad always wore a hat. He never wore it in a Church a restaurant or in the house like they do today but only to work and when he was outside. I remember him taking off his hat when he went into a building. I remember him tipping his hat to the ladies...He was a very respectful and courteous... In the winter he wore a Navy pea-cap. It was around the time of World War two and I remember he said he was exempt from the Military. He told me, instead of the Military and because of our family, he called us "dependents" and at that time they only drafting single guys...So he worked in a place called the Springfield Armory in Massachusetts where they made guns for “World War Two“. He was a Machinist. ... My uncle, my moms brother, his name was Frank. During the war he was in the Navy building and repairing airbases on those islands in the Pacific. He was in what they called the “Navy Seabees“. He told me he "drove a bulldozer" and made landing strips for the war planes on those islands...I remember he gave my dad a Navy pea hat and a pea-coat for the winter. He gave me a clock that he said, "came out of a Navy plane that crashed". They called it a, pea coat and pea hat because of the material it was made of. I often wondered what the “P” meant…In the summer my dad wore a baseball hat. He was a great baseball player. He played third base on the town baseball team. The name of the team was the "Kettle Brook Team". It was named after a once popular fishing brook in our town. I think its a swamp now by the Congregational Church on Main St....The uniforms they wore were like the Yankee pin stripes but my dad was always a Red Sox fan. He got to see them win a World Series before he died. He was happy about that. My son Adam even put a Red Sox hat in his coffin. He really would have liked that.
I especially remember one summer afternoon many years ago when they were playing baseball at the local ballpark near St. Mary's school in Windsor Locks Connecticut. Dad told me that the famous "Babe Ruth" and the Yankee baseball team visited the park while they were on some kind of tour. I remember one time at a game when I was standing near the fence with my fingers holding the fence and he came over and told me to never hold the fence like that because a foul ball might hit my fingers. I will never forget that. To this day I will never lace my fingers in a Chain link fence.....He always took care of me...He use to say to Mom to "Keep an eye on me" or "Watch over me" all the time. I was watching a game one afternoon when the batter hit a line drive, a hot grounder, a one bouncer to him at third base and he caught the ball and threw it from deep in the hole to first base and got the runner out...Everybody in the grandstand cheered. I didn’t know how important that was at the time but he was very excited when he explained it to me. His nick name was “Pap the Rooster”. All the players had nick names. From that moment on my Dad had the nick name "Pap". No one ever called him Joe which was his real name. I have no idea what that means but I think, “Rooster” is a term for a baseball infielder. I was only a little kid and very young but I remember that. When he was older and done playing baseball he wore a golf hat. For years he played golf all summer long at the "Copper Hill Country Club" in East Granby with my uncles and his friends. In the winter he went bowling. First at Blanch's lanes on Grove St. then at the "Villa Rose" on Spring St. in Windsor Locks on Tuesday and Thursday nights. I went with him because my Mom worked and I remember helping the owner of the bowling alley set up the pins. They said were “short handed”. I was called "the pin boy" and they paid me 6 cents a string...The bowling pins were called “Duck-Pins“. I remember the hat he had at the time with a bowling pin logo on it…On Sundays he wore a fedora to church like the one Humphrey Bogart wore in the movies. I have a picture of me and my Dad all dressed up for Church and we both had a fedora on. It looked like I was 6 or 7 years old. .
Dad, I will always remember the things you taught me, the wonderful example you set and the priceless things you said to me. A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you and think, what would my Dad do in a situation this? It never fails, I always make good choices when I do that.. It was an honor and a pleasure to take care of you and "Watch over you" in your last days like you took care of me.. I really miss you Dad... Happy Fathers Day.... I love you.....
Its going to be hot today and the weather man we have in this area tries to look happy and talk with an upbeat tone but I know he is as miserable as me…Is it my imagination or has this been one long uncomfortable summer?…There are so many things to voice my opinion about that I don’t know where to begin. Yeah, right Lar. One of most dumbest things is, its almost the anniversary of the 9/11 murders and the Muslims want to build a Mosque near the where the Twin Towers were in New York City. They use us and abuse us. They kill our solders, blow people up all over the world and then they want to build churches to praise their God. Where do they get the money to build these things? It costs millions…Don’t say anything but it could be the drug money from Afghanistan. That is one of their more popular exports. I heard they hide bombs and guns in these Churches. This morning they blew up something in Iraq and killed 60 people and 3 more soldiers died in Afghanistan. This is insane and I wonder who would allow this to happen? Could it be our honest politicians who care so much about what you and I think.? The Illegal Alien thing has quieted down. Our President flies all over the world and goes on vacation while your taxes go up and up, as you pay for all the Illegal’s welfare and food stamps. They don’t really have stamps. They have charge cards now…Your State and Federal government sends them so much of your money a month on a charge card. I heard they can get cash from these cards too but don’t hold me to that. It depends how many kids they have. They call them dependents. Yeah, they are dependent on you for school and don’t forget that wholesome breakfast, lunch and dinner tonight. I always wonder where the Dads are and where they work. They never show the fathers only the mothers telling the sob story of how they have so many problems. This fall they will be going to your schools that you will pay for. Meanwhile don’t forget to donate money for school lunches, the school books and the flood victims, the Hurricane victims, The Fire victims, the Oil Leak victims, the Cancer victims, the Russian victims, the Pakistan victims, the India victims, the Arab victims and all the other scam victims in the world….When I see this I think of the people who run these things. I’ll bet the CEO’s make over $200,000 a year. While you send in your donation they are driving their BMW's to work when they actually go to work….So as you sit in your 1985 Ford Escort on your way to work paying $3.00 a gallon for gas, don’t forget to donate because the welfare recipients and the illegals need the money for the taxi's that take them shopping. Don't forget your government, they are watching everything you do from the satellite spy cams. They can actually see the numbers on the checks you write…..Later guys…..
Washington D.C. May 26, 2090.…In the news today, the Al-Qaeda Daily, Arab Press and the Muslim news reported that the Arctic ocean, the last ocean to be free from the leaking oil from the Gulf of Mexico is now totally polluted…officially, the U.S. White House reports and confirms that all oceans are now thick with oil the consistency of pudding. The President was at a fund raiser yesterday seeking donations for his reelection but as an afterthought confirmed that there is no more sea life living in any ocean. A committee is being formed to oversee the existing committee on discussing a bail out program for British Petroleum. …British Petroleum said today they are still working hard to cap the leak in the gulf by putting sand on top of the hole but reports it’s a time consuming job. Meanwhile the last of the Whales and Sea Turtles are putting themselves on shore preferring to suffocate on land rather the in the ocean. When asked about the scarcity of drinking water in the United States the president said, the government will provide bottled water on the third Wednesday of every month. Limit is two 12 once bottles per family of four. Non-citizens will receive six 12 ounce bottles. When ask why that is…The president replied, because we need to be nice to our foreign friends. They showed great courage crossing the border in all that gunfire. In other news the Senate just voted a unanimous yes to appropriate from American taxpayers, the money to build a Western White House in Dubai.
In other news…. The committee overseeing the committee seeking to elect Mohammed Abdul Mohammed Jr. President of the United States is seeking funds from the United Arab Emirates and Dubai. Dubai, the capital of the Mid-east recently completed building an artificial ocean with profits from raising gas prices in the United States $291.99 per gallon.…. If elected he will be the fifth President to admit being a Muslim of the highest order.. When asked, He said he will, “Use American Tax dollars to build a Mosque in every Federal building in the United States. “And that’s a campaign promise”, he was heard saying in Arabic to his press secretary. He later commented that the new law concerning woman will go into effect on June 1st making it mandatory that all woman must wear their full robes or suffer the consequences of being stoned on the city street by the Jihad police…And that’s the News for today, May 26, 2090...Stay tuned
We are all prey for the money mongers who make money on our addictions. From the compulsion spending on things we don’t need to our minor and real addictions. We are constantly encouraged to buy because we need this an that….Its continuous repetition and temptation to spend….They say coffee is good for you to encourage you to spend. It can’t be that good if you stop drinking it will give you a headache. Just makes sense, doesn’t it?
Of coarse then there are the decaying morals and family values of the younger generation. Think about that son and daughter you may have or your little niece and nephew. There are young kids somewhere in your family. If you don't have any, think about your friends son and daughter. Who will they be having sex with in say, 2 years, 5 years or 10 years? Well, actually the question should be how many guys will she be having sex with? How many young girls will he be having sex with?...
The only solution is a neat little bar code or a GPS implant somewhere on your body….They have them on dogs and cats why not on humans? It just makes sense…cashier Amy wasn’t shocked and she actually thought I was serious. To her the idea was just one of those things that will happen sooner or later and acceptable……How do you know there isn’t some kind of locator on your body right now? A microscopic pin point that can hear and find you……Wait, there is and its called a cell phone…..Wait again, the reason the Government doesn’t care how many people there are in this country is…What’s the first thing they buy when they get to this country? A cell phone…Wow…. I could be on to something……………..
I believe something is going on...But If you can get a picture of the smoke coming from a engine at say 50 or 60,000 feet you can hang around an airport long enough to get a shot of (more than one) truck being loaded with, not fuel but chemicals. I'd like to see that. If I wanted to get picture I would follow the tanker (any oil or aviation fuel tanker truck) to see where he goes. I would even be persistent enough to get a sample...?
If I have learned anything in the relatively short life span we have, its two things. Choices (self explanatory) and Burning Bridges. Always leave a little room for negotiation..
Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don,t waste anything. Mention the chemicals and growth hormones and steroids and the torture and pain of a slaughter house.
It was an Interesting day yesterday…My usual breakfast with friends but what was more interesting was, well not really that interesting but it was more of a “you never really know who is watching you day“….One of my Ex’s posted a comment on Twitter that she was reading my Facebook page and Journal. I should say she found my Journal and said, now get this, She said, “:I’m amazed seeing inside his head. She went on in 140 characters or less…”I just can't conceive of that much intensity all the time!” Was that a compliment or an insult? Wait, hold it right there…“Intense”. Now that’s food for thought. Hell, I never thought it was intense. I am intensely angry with the changes and the complete disregard of what the future of our country and state will be. I haven’t been posting lately because I’m sure no one wants to read my constant condemnation of our so-called leaders, and law makers. I heard that one yesterday “Law Makers“! What a joke…They all sit around trying to look serious when the TV cameras are on but behind the scenes they are making back room deals, laughing and telling jokes about how much they will be able to steal from your wallet. See what I mean? It always comes out like that…I can’t help it…I’m sorry...I try not to be upset but what can I say. Some times I wish I was blind or ignorant to what's happening and could go around like nothing is happening. Intense yes…I know I’m not the only one that feels like this…On me not posting. I can only say, I can’t think of anything good to say so I’m not saying anything… Did she insult me? I still can’t figure that out.
"Believe it or not someone called the way I write “intense”. Well I believe that if I hid my head in the sand nothing would get done in this country or the world. You cannot pretend nothing is wrong and gleefully go on your way."
Marijuana is also know as a Stepping stone drug called Pot, Dope and Weed. Using this drug Is the same as smoking Cigarettes and in my opinion will cause Cancer...Medical Marijuana is just the Lawyer term they use to make it legal. For Addictive personality's, usually addiction runs in the family. Especially those should not use this Drug because it will lead to using Cocaine and other deadly substances. Your Governor signed the death warrant for thousands of Connecticut kids and adults alike.
When I was working we used to have a guy that made homemade Pasta Vasul. God, do I miss that. I like saying that…….Pasta Vasul……
I wonder if the Shuttle crew can see things blowing up in Afghanistan?
I’ll never understand how or why a guy will wear his pants around the bottom of his bottom. I’m sure you have seen that…someone told me they are called “Wanna-be’s. Whatever that is. I think its some sort of club. Someone should tell them it doesn’t help them if they need to run for their life. It would be unmanly to run pulling up your pants.
My dad use to say, “Lorenzo behave yourself I don’t want to see any monkey shines” I have no idea what a monkey shine is……. I looked it up on Wikipedia and I’m not sure I like the definition.
Speaking of Wikipedia….I joined that the other day. Now, I’ve got to figure out why…..
I think my Dad had a thing for monkeys…..At times when I would copy something or do things that other youngsters would do He would say, “Lorenzo, monkey see monkey do“……It could be why I like monkeys today……
My grandfather, father and grand mother called me Lorenzo. My mother called me Lawrence. My aunt hung the Monika Larry on me….Today most people call me Lar…
Every once and a while when I was young I would be upset over something trivial. My dad would say, “Lorenzo don’t make a mountain out of a mole hill”.
When I was young…Somewhere around 3rd or 4th grade. I was the victim of a bully. I’m sure there are many of us that have had that kind of trauma happen….I came home crying and my dad explained very carefully what to do when confronted with this behavior…..Keep in mind I was a shy quiet kid and found it very difficult and painful to be in that situation as I’m sure many of us were. My dad took me aside and told me when this bully started to pick on me and push me around to pretend to run away and when he chased me to turn quick and punch him in the nose…..He said, “The force of the punch with him running into my fist would cause his nose to bleed“. He told me that he would never pick on me again. I never got a chance to do that. The bully died 6 months later of a brain tumor. Years later I worked with his dad in the same building. It just happened to be in the building where the guy made the Pasta Vasul. I never mentioned that incident to his dad…..I’ll bet he thought of his son when he seen me……We were the same age…..
Now that you mention that. I was at an event last Saturday morning and shared a story with the woman who sat next to me. It was about gratitude. I suggested that sometimes its overwhelming. I think you know what I mean.. After the event was over she came to me and asked me if she could hug me.. I humbly accepted her wonderful tight 10 second hug reminding her she was not alone.. All she had to do is say thank you.. I had to share that because I think you understand... I have that inner peace..
Please, if anyone knows who my sons are and where they are I would deeply appreciate it if you would Email them a copy of this note. This will be the last commutation ever to my two sons, David and Stephen. Unless they contact me, this will be the last time I will ever write or speak about the way I feel about these two ungrateful people…..
Thank you,
David and Stephen… I'm sure that I can speak for your beautiful Mother when I say this. I’m also absolutely sure she is in Heaven looking down on you wondering why you turned out to be like you are. You can rest assure she wouldn’t have liked it very much. I can say this honestly because I loved her and knew her better than you ever could.
To begin with, when we gave you life, we were very young and inexperienced and if we knew what miserable adults you would be at this point in your lives, you would have never been born. We would have spared you the indignity of becoming the thoughtless, inconsiderate young men that you are today. It was because we were so inexperienced and innocent at that young age that you were conceived. I am sure many other young people regret having children but none more than me.. Your Mother and I tried with all the knowledge we had at the time to teach you to be men. We gave you your life and everything we had… We tried the best we knew how. Now it’s your choices that are causing you the misery and hate I know you feel today. However, I also know for sure that you will never ever stop thinking about us and how we tried to help you and how you didn’t listen.
Regarding me. I cannot undue what you think happened, however 38 years later I am still your Father but you have no idea who I am. Who I have become…That will never change because of the way you are. Just remember I will always be your Father till the day you die. As much as you try, you will never forget that. You will never know me and how I have changed. No matter what you do I will always be somewhere in your thoughts and your thoughts will never change. Especially when you get older…You can make excuses and deny, deny, deny and I truly feel sorry for you. I pity you. Remember, your life came from my seed. I gave you your names. Stephen and David…You came from me! That will never, ever change. At this point in your pathetic lives and you may not think so now but keep in mind, life is very short. In the not too distant future I won’t be here but I will always be with you and my blood is in your kids and their kids as part of me till the day you DIE.. In your travels, wherever you go whatever you do remember to look around you, I’m standing right beside you. Don’t you ever forget that..
Thought to Ponder . . .
"Minds are like parachutes ~ they won't work unless they're open".
As always and forever, Your Dad..
I was reading Capt. Chesley Sullenburger’s book about his life as an a Air Force fighter pilot then as an airline pilot. He’s the guy that landed in the Hudson river and saved all those people. Lately I have been writing about some of my experiences working on the ground at an airport so guys like him could take off or land those planes….I don’t mean anything by that. I just loved my job. I always thought of it as a very exciting thing to do for a living. I mean who else gets to see a plane land with no landing gear. Or a F-105 fighter make a 300 foot pass over main runway at just below the sound barrier speed. That’s about 600 miles an hour. Talk about earth shaking….You can’t imagine what that sounds like. You cannot duplicate that sound in the movies. We, the air traffic controllers, flight deck personal and myself are called Penguins.….The birds that don’t fly…We just make sure that the pilots can…We get them off the ground or land them as safely as possible…I was reading an excerpt on how he diverted to another destination airport to try to save a woman who had a heart attack. She didn’t make it. He said, “She died as he was landing the plane“. I never told the story of the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) pilot who was landing on the same runway I was working on. I glanced up towards the approach and in the distance seen that a Cessna Citation was landing. I seen him in the air coming towards us. I just cleared the runway in time as he touched down where the car was……I saved some lives that day. …Me and my helper, the pilot, the co-pilot and the people on that plane…..I think I’ll write a book about that, leading up to events that happened that day. I’ll describe how I got ready to go to work, not knowing I could be close to losing my life if it wasn‘t for my quick decision making and experience. If I didn't see that plane people would have lost their lives…I could write about how I went over to that pilot and got really close to his face and with my finger pointing at him told him what I thought of the way he landed. I could describe in detail how I reported him to FAA officials… Well, I don’t want bore with details…After all, I didn’t land in a river…….
The Seaside (Waterford, Connecticut)
The Seaside is in Waterford, Connecticut that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. Also known as Seaside Sanatorium or as Seaside Regional Center, it was built or has other significance[clarification needed] in 1934 in Tudor Revival and Classical Revival style, and was designed by noted architect Cass Gilbert. It served historically as a sanatorium.
It is nationally significant as the first institution designed for heliotropic treatment of children suffering from tuberculosis. Its buildings "comprise an exceptional collection of fully realized and generally well-preserved Tudor Revival-style institutional architecture".
Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors and lawyers.
One evening, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed the 95th birthday gifts they were able to give their elderly mother, who had moved to Florida .
The first said, "You know, I had a big house built for Mama."
The second said
you all for reading this, if you need to reach me in the future I will be in Guam!!
This is a picture of my Uncle Lorenzo Ferrari
He was born in 1910 and he died in a drowning
accident in the Canal Basin in Windsor Locks Connecticut
in 1923. He was 13 years old. He was swimming with some of his friends when he disappeared from sight in the murky water.
Years later I questioned one of these friends and
he said they searched franticly to find him but to no avail.
Lorenzo’s parents, my Grandparents had this picture
made in memory of his short life. He left 3 brothers and one sister. Joseph, Louis, Santino and Mary. Joseph was my father. Lorenzo is buried in Saint Mary’s cemetery in Windsor Locks Connecticut. My parents named me after Lorenzo calling me Lawrence. I am proud to be named after him….
Update..... First published on 2/27/2013.
On and on it goes... America is not a country anymore its become a business... The wars and greed gets thicker in Obama's new America. It can't last forever...How long will it be before it implodes? Obama's Illinois sly sneaky grins and winks will fade away. The question is? Is it too late? Have you become one of Obama's new clones? No, not one of those plastic human like machines on the Si-Fi channel or in the movies, not scientifically made but the kind made from your new environment. From now on or at least for a little while there is no middle class! You are ether rich or you are poor. Now you suffer or you don’t. For the poor, rage and anger are the new attitudes. Death, Fear and Terrorism are the norm. For the rich, they just don’t care..There is no in-between. The majority of you have now been programmed and coerced into buying anything they are selling because of instant gratification and because they say you need to have it. Your freedom of choice is literally gone. You are doing these things automatically now. Your corrupt Illinois President and all your corrupt leaders in Washington are bought and paid for by the oil company's greed and big business. You are all blind or have been blinded to what is going on around you. You see and hear only what they want you to see and hear when they want you to see it and hear it. Everywhere you go, what ever you do. Whether its watching TV, being at the airport, buying food at the store, talking on your cell or just driving down the street. They know what you are doing, where you are and when you are doing it. They are watching and listening to you all the time. You have now become a statistic. You are just a number, a bar code. If you are too young to spend money they don’t need you. If you are old, you have become a throw away that is too expensive to take care of. They are slowly taking away your food stamps (SNAP) and health benefit's so you will die. Your peace of mind and serenity have been manipulated into buying material things and for the most part your freedom of choice has been taken away. They continue to lie and say everything is OK and you really believe them... They want you to think that drugs and alcohol are to have a good time and not addictive. They don’t care because all they want is for you to do spend money. That is what its all about. You are officially living in a very sick society and have been for a while now....
The Ten Ways to tell if you are a Obama Clone. Be honest if that is possible anymore..
1. Do you walk around staring at your hand (Cell phone) for more than an hour a day?
2. Do you ever mute a TV show and watch commercials?
3. Could you NOT watch TV if you didn’t want to?
4. Do you let your kids play electronic games when the sun is out?
5. Do you play electronics games for more than 2 hours a day?
6. Are 2 of your 3 credit cards maxed out?
7. Do you buy things you don’t need when you can’t afford it?
8. Do you get up and watch Morning TV?
9. Do you charge things even if you have the cash to pay for it?
10. Do you think that Reality Shows are real?
If you answered no to these questions you have been programed to lie. If you have answered yes to two of these questions you are turning into a Obama Clone and you are being programed....Your life span will be been shortened...
The Catholic theological definition of a lie is, "To deny others access to knowledge to which they are entitled". The dictionary describes a lie as “Deliberately saying something that’s untrue“. A deception, hiding a secret, an untruth and lies of omission are still lies. It’s all the same no matter what you call it or how you say it. From the moment a lie is conceived it begins to grow. It has life. It’s the beginning of its cycle. It has a life span. When a lie is told, someone’s future could be changed. A lie is told or suggested to someone. A lie is always a secret. Its something that someone doesn’t want someone to know. There is always a victim, if convinced and the person doesn’t suspect, a trusting unsuspecting or even a suspicious victim will believe it. Usually a lie is a cover up of a mistake. It could be a broken promise, a secret or something embarrassing. It could be anything and to what degree will it be painful when found out. It depends on who tells the lie. The longer a lie is left untold the more damage or pain it will cause. If left uncorrected the lie will fester and expand for weeks, months, years and maybe even generations. It doesn’t matter, sooner or later the victim of a lie will be hurt. Sometimes the teller of lies is so convincing that they believe the lie themselves. A lie can start at the telling of story, the denial of an affair or even something smaller. The key to being a good liar is to believe your own lies. The first thing the victim does when told the truth, or the truth is uncovered, is wonder why? That leads to anger, pain, hate and resentment. A feeble attempt to cover it up and manipulate the truth usually fails but not always, its just a matter of time and its out in the open. This is a story of a lie in progress that is supposed a secret but as we know, if two people know a secret it isn’t a secret. Remember, there are two kinds of truth. The real truth and the truth as seen through the eyes of a compulsive liar.......L.J. Ferrari
is a High School picture of my Dad on the left. He was the greatest Dad in the world..
Since the digital picture age started a few years ago did you ever notice that there are no real pictures anymore? Remember, what they use to call a photograph? I mean pictures that you keep for 50 years to hand down to your kids for the “memories“. Those memories were triggered by those little pieces of paper...Yes, I agree, digital graphics are clear and it is faster than film but the real pictures on paper are missing. Remember pictures? The kind you had developed and put on paper. You took pictures with your little Brownie or if you could afford it, the 35mm camera that you bought in a real camera store. My wife’s grandfather gave me my first 35 because his hands shook and the pictures came out blurry…His name was George…You then took that roll of film to the local drug store and waited sometimes with anticipation to have them developed to see how they “came out“. Then you knew that years later your kids could look in that box in the back of the closet to see what Mom and Dad did with you and your brothers and sisters or your wonderful relatives years ago. I’ll bet you didn’t know families did mostly every thing together. Beaches, picnics and they visited each others homes almost every weekend. Mom and Dad even visited Grandma and Granddad and took pictures of them. Sometimes they bought little frames and put those paper pictures in them just to remember how wonderful their parents were… I see pictures of my Father and remember what a wonderful person he was and how he patiently and delicately guided me around the pitfalls of this dangerous world. To this day I have a picture of my Dad hanging where I can see it every day…
Well no more. I mean no pictures on paper that you can save to see, say 10, 20, or even 50 years from now. Your kids and their kids won’t know who their Grand parents were, never mind what they looked like.. They won’t know who you were or what you looked like. They won’t have those precious memories that you have… This world and its odd society have even taken away your memories and your past.. Its almost like you are only here for a few years and then discarded.. Its like you don’t count anymore. In a little while you won’t exist…
I realize that my posts have been short with a lot of useless information. Lately I haven’t been in the mood for much of anything… I’m tired of all the bad news and endless chatter and excuses from the politicians and wanna-be famous. Its like it’s a huge cycle and with the new year its just starting all over again. Not one So-called leader in Washington is saying anything but the usual nonsense. No one is addressing the real issues. Anger, welfare, illegal’s, immigration, crime, homelessness, drug addiction, drug smuggling and fraud in the system or corruption. No one is saying anything about the fact that there are too many people and will talk about over-population. No one will say anything about conservation, the environment, joblessness, greed, education, bullying, gay issues or the prices of food. No one will say one word about cops shooting unarmed people. They all live in a bubble. They are all Lawyears. All they do is lie about each other. Not one of these morons knows anything about the real feelings of the people. They all went to private schools and were protected from the outside world. What do they know about emotional pain? These are people with the summer cottages and private beaches. They are all liars. I resent them all….Democrat and Republican. When was the last time anyone one of these freaks flew on a airliner? They all fly with private jets. When was the last time they were searched by an x-ray machine and were embarrassed and had their things pawed through. They all have people that do their flying, driving and shopping. They all have nannies, chefs, servants and public relation people that repair damage or put a spin on a bad story… Not one of these fools really cares about you and me. They have no idea what really happens when you are out of money a week before payday and they are going to shut your lights off before you can pay the bill… They don‘t know the hopeless feeling it is when you don‘t have a job and you have to borrow money from your father to eat……….See what I mean, I don’t have to tell you all this stuff. Its all the same and it will never change and to me its so boring because its been going on for years. The people of today are like clones and sheep being led around by the nose. I have been saying it for months….Its only going to get worse… It will never get better and really change and if it does, the problems will still be there, only you will have to pay double for it… While you are doing that you might as well give them a raise and a new fleet of bullet proof limos. They are going to need them in the future…..
“Ignorance is bliss”. These days that is so true…
What are parents not doing? Are they setting a good example? Do they set limits? At what age do you say enough is enough...Its still OK to say “Don’t watch that show“ Its still OK to say if your friend jumps of the bridge doesn‘t mean you have to! .. Most of the problems start when both parents work and the kids are left unattended. The supervision that young people desperately need is not there. This is how the trouble begins. Young people with very curious minds should be reminded that the TV show they watch is just what the name implies. “A Show” or an act and its not real. Its as simple as that. Tell them its fake and in between the commercials and ads that entice you buy something its designed to titillate your imagination. To provoke you into doing things that will hurt you. To make you spend money. Believe me that is true…Most shows today are designed to sell you something. A game or a product or a drug. TV today is only an advertising tool you involuntarily let into your house so they can make money. Think of it as something, “that sell things continuously“. The entertainment value is practically zero. A few years ago they had something called prime time TV...Now its mostly an exhibition of who can do the most asinine things…Real people are not like this but we are turning into a society that does crazy things to be famous. What they do is just an act for the camera. The shows or sitcoms that are still there are laced with body part jokes that are more for shock value and are not in the least bit funny. Did you notice the bullying epidemic got worst when a show called “Glee” started. The writers of that show wrote “Nip-tuck“. Doesn’t that tell you something? They turned the “Talent show” craze into a show that goes to the edge. One that pushes things to the limit. Yet, no one did anything about it. Those writers are allowed to poison the minds of the kids who will believe the stuff they write..Its the same thing with so-called reality TV. Its not real.. Then there is the internet…Believe me here, parents cannot let young minds go on the internet without supervision… Never ever trust your son or daughter to do this alone. It’s like giving them a handgun and bullets then telling them to never to load the gun… Its mental suicide… The cell phone is something else that is addicting and hazardous to your mental health. Not to mention it costs a small fortune every month. People will do practically anything to pay the cell phone bill every month. We have turned into a society walking around looking at our palms addicted to a hand held computer. How many Politicians and celebrities were caught exposing their private parts via text message? Do your kids do that? Do your kids send sex messages? When was the last time you checked your son or daughters cell phone? Think about that… A young mind is very open to suggestions good or bad. A kid will usually try anything once. TV ads prey on families where both parents work. The advertisers know this and don’t care. Its like they are setting a bad example on purpose. Young minds are being shoved and pushed in the wrong direction everyday. Families are in chaos and being torn apart because of drug and alcohol addiction. Sickness and health mean nothing anymore… My solution is simply not to watch TV. The more I talk to people about this phenomenon the more I hear of them doing the same thing. By not watching TV I feel a lot better and my mind is clear of negative thoughts and ideas. Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. They don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or dies...
The other day I wrote about the TV mini series “Great Expectations” and “Downton Abbey”. I also enjoy reading Jane Austin and Anita Shrive novels about the past. I also mentioned how I wished I was living back in that time period. When I left the house the other day I was thinking about that. As I was driving to the store and as I usually do, going the long way around. I noticed that when I go someplace, it could be anywhere. To the store or just to go out for the sake of going out. I always go by way of the back roads and through neighborhoods with shortcuts where the older homes are. They remind me of growing up and where I used to live. The roads I travel on, on my way to getting there are quiet and you very seldom see any other cars. Years ago there weren’t that many cars and I like it that way. I just came to realized that I’m living in the past…Sort of. Then during one of my walks on the beach where I meditate, I really thought about it and if were up to me things remain the same. Yes, I do have all the modern conveniences plus and my car is a 2005 Mustang…I bought it new. The point is it’s a Mustang and not a foreign car. I try not to buy anything foreign. I wear corduroy pants and leather boots in the winter, now get this, with suspenders and I dress nicely all the time. I ride a bicycle in the summer and I have been doing that for years. My diet is eat anything I want, only half as much. I noticed s while ago that I eat just like my Dad. In fact I eat the same kinds of foods he did. He was born in 1915. Then there is what I watch on TV or in the movies. I lean toward the older movies and of coarse movies about the seventeen and eighteen hundreds and I love the way the people lived then. Stories about Kings and Queens are my favorite…The way I see it, if I lived during that time period I would have been a gentleman and a man who enjoys helping people. I would have rode a horse to where ever I went. A Mustang perhaps? …now, I actually believe I am stuck in the 1950s or 60s. I refuse to accept progress and what it passes for these days, in any way shape or form. In my opinion we are going no where in this country much too fast for the sake of greed and we are taking no hostages. I absolutely refuse to be greedy nor will go after any money. Believe it or not money doesn't mean that much to me..I want to be free and feel safe where I am. I will not take any chances and move forward into this dog eat dog world Why should I go forward into this complicated mess we call a country? I refuse and will do everything I can, not to pay high prices for anything. I do not watch advertising or commercials on TV. I won’t buy anything because the other person has it or because it’s the thing to do. If I want something I will do research to look for the right store and if the price is to high I will wait for a sale. I will not rush anywhere and I am never late for doing anything. I am courteous and kind. I respect the old and young alike. I smile and talk to anyone. I’m stuck in the 50s and I love it. I will not move...
Its been almost 4 years and I still don't watch TV…..I guess there is a science to giving up something… Something addicting that is?… Until they banned cigarette commercials. They programmed you to smoke and it turned out to be addicting and millions of smokers died of lung cancer and related diseases. How long will it be before they ban beer commercials. Did you notice there are no Liquor commercials? What about beer, it does the same thing?…Drink too much and they say, “You are having fun“. They want you to believe you are having fun and you think you are. Ask yourself If its so much fun how come you suffer the next day if you drink too much? Now the Bastards sell beer on Sundays here in Connecticut. That way they can get you to do more crazy things for the 11 o’clock news and guess what? Spend more money…Well, as for me, I feel better each day by not watching television and those insane commercials. I think if I write about it gets easier. Anyway, in a sense I have not been watching for a long time. I was turning it on but muting the commercials but now, even when you mute everything there are hidden commercials. You can’t do that anymore. I have to shut it off. These days watching television is not good for your mental health and behavior…I know they have been using it to reach into your mind. Not only watching every move you make in the stores but using the plastic bar code cards to keep tract of what you buy…Now you feel compelled to spend money you don’t have by way of the television…All you Moms that plant your kids in front of the TV to give them something to do…The Bastards are programming your kids to do, God only knows what? In a sense you are allowing strangers to mess with your kids mind. Here is a test to see if they are being brainwashed…Shut it off and tell them to go out and play…I don’t have to tell you what the result will be. Do I? Try it yourself. Don’t watch TV, go to the park. Take a bike ride. Put on some commercial free music on the stereo. If you can’t do this for even a day you have been programmed..
And I'm going out to buy an used Nintendo 3DSXL for myself for Christmas because I have been good too. Well almost good and I am a nice person just like you..
Merry Christmas hotclaws Sincerely

Great movie! Our so-called leaders in Washington tell the Obama clones that everything is all right. Keep spending don't worry. Check the old factory's and a part of the country that they don't care about.... The way I believe it really is. I don't agree all the time with Hollywood and the bad example they set for America's youth but with this I agree. (Kids learn by example and believe what happens in the movies.)...Great cast....Don't miss this one....
" Line from the movie "Out of the furnace".
Church ain't over till all the snakes are back in the bag.
Life has a expiration date...
My advice is to invest in a flack jacket and wear it if you go into the cities at night. Be careful of the food you eat it might have a disease and don't trust anybody because they might be a con-man or woman. The morals of our kids is non-existent because of the movies and TV and the internet perverts will be on the prowl this winter..Wow, that's something to look forward to...There are too many people not minding thier own business. Every one has a solution but no one fixes anything..
I have been saying this for a very long time. Someone is watching from the time you leave your house to when you get home...Someone knows what you watched on TV last night and where you go on the internet. They know how much money you have in the bank. They know what you buy in the store and what food you eat..You can't do anything anymore without someone making a statistic out of it..They really don't care about you...Its all about the numbers. They can take a picture from a satellite of the license plate on your car when you are going 100 mph on the highway. I checked Google earth a while ago and seen a still of me getting out of my car when I parked in the parking lot..They are watching from everywhere. Check Google earth to see if your house or apartment and car is in driveway or where you work...Its scary...And I didn't even mention the cell phone with the GPS you carry all the time...Its worst than having an electronic implant or bar code tattoo...That is next and they will convince you that its the thing to do..and what's worse is people will want it..??This ain't science fiction baby this is the real thing...
Kids, when you carry your expensive Cell phone, do you know it is tracking and watching you? Its like your shopping card that you give the cashier for that discount. They always ask for that card to keep track of you. Your phone becomes part of you and knows your habits, what you spend and where you are all the time. If you think your government isn’t watching, think again. All these things are just another way to take your dignity and money. It reduces you to a puppet or a predictable statistic. You pay between $600 and $1200 a year for that cell phone to let them do this to you…..

He didn't mention that in Washington D.C. Oct 4,2013 - I notice more and more every day that they are coming up with a lot of excuses about the black woman that crashed her car into the White House gate. They are saying she was ill or despondent but nothing is being said about her being unarmed. Are they overlooking this on purpose hoping it will go away? I notice they are talking about past shootings. Making more excuses. I hope you realize that what they are doing is setting a precedent. She was despondent like the thousands of others here, in what is left of this country. Think about it! This woman being black was probably elated when Obama was elected President. Imagine her disappointment and rage now and what she was going through. She was a unarmed black woman in a car with a baby and they shot her to death. They, in effect murdered her...Where is Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton? Why aren't they speaking now? Are their heads in the sand? And what is really special here is, her black President is not saying a word...Believe me here...If nothing is being done about her being killed the way she was, its open season on you. It gives them permission to kill you and make up a story later on. For example, if you don't stop when they tell you because just maybe you didn't see or didn't hear them, believe me some of these gunslingers will shoot and kill you. I think you get the point. The police officers or the Washington GSA security guards that shot and killed this woman should be made and example of. They should be arrested and fired. They should have their carry permits and guns taken away.
Yes, we are at war here in America but she was not the enemy. In the past their motto was "Protect and serve". Now all the trust is gone! I do notice the change in their attitude when I talk to them. There is an underlying resentment, a dislike for someone they should be respecting. Its all over their faces and behavior. Exactly like the thugs from the Old Saybrook Connecticut police department who stopped me that fine day. The police of yesteryear are gone. They have been replaced with bullet proof vested, disrespectful thugs.
By allowing them to get away with murdering this woman you have given them permission to kill your Grandson because he didn't hear them say stop.
Its now 12/3/2013 - I notice more and more unarmed kids and people are being shot and killed and nothing is being said or done about it....
They watch because they don't trust you...The behaviors and Words they rarely teach anymore.
Conscience, Consequences, Morals, Sin, Honesty, Responsibility, Values, Trust, Loyalty, Courtesy, Kindness, Thrift and Reverence.
Even our President is not trusted by his own party. I only see a future of sadness and fear. We, the people of America must realize we cannot save the world! We cannot solve the world problems! We cannot pay for the world debt! Someone has to make some hard decisions. There is more to life than to spend, spend, spend. Its virtually impossible to pay the debt we have now and there are some really insane things going on out there and its costing this country a fortune. I understand change but what is happening is happening too fast and its out of control. I am disappointed at the direction and the progress this country is making and I fear for my Niece's, Nephews and Grandchildren and all the young people that have and will have nothing in the future except overcrowding and an expensive greedy environment. They will never know peace and what it was like only a few years ago when I was a young man. What we have today is a drug and alcohol riddled society and promiscuous behavior with no values or morals. It seems like anything goes and if the greedy can take advantage of you they will with no conscience or consequences. They would hurt you financially, mentality, physically and morally just to take your money and they won’t feel a thing. Its like you are left by the side of the road to die. Only with them, its on to the next victim. With you its suffering, payments and credit card bills and if you are very lucky maybe you will have a real job to pay for all that. Success today means to join the madness. Yes, maybe for a short time you will be content but you will never be really happy because its only instant gratification. Anyone with a conscience will feel guilt and remorse later in life. I guarantee there will never be peace in your soul…

I have been thinking about this and will put it in "Freaks and losers" catorgory. In Long Island N.Y a man was trampled to death in a stampede to get into a store on Black Friday. Apparently the man worked there and was in the way when some 2000 people rushed into the store. Comment from one of the creepy crawlers who stepped on the mans face while trying to get to the candy department to save .12 cents was….“That mo-frucker got in the way man“….…That was the event that got me the sickest so far this holiday season. I am sure the non-humans and bottom-feeders will prove me wrong before the end of the month. There were more stupid things these past weeks but I am going to give a special Dirty-diaper award to the 2000 sickos that did that dirty deed. They may have saved a few pennies but and I have said this before, “There is a special place in Hell for those 2000 losers“.
Don't hold me to this but that is a reckless driving fine for Mr. Cote. That is why they locked him up... That is expensive plus his insurance will raised to all time highs. All well and good but they (cops) should be on Rt. 95 where the normal speed is 90 to 100 mph. Big bucks there... There would be no room in the lock-up.. Lots of reckless driving there...

Remember a long time ago when we seen something bad happen to someone we would say, Hey, be careful it could happen to you. Well, the way things are going these days we say, its going to happen to you sooner or later even if you are careful. I say, try not to become collateral damage. I realize that human behavior has been questionable for thousand years and people have been wondering why people do what they do since the beginning of time. Things have escalated in the past few years here in America and its my opinion that most of what is going on in this country these days is because of suppressed anger, fear and rage. None of us is bullet proof to the craziness and insanity going on in the world today...We have come to the point here in the United States depending where you live that its too dangerous to venture outside. I realize it has always been somewhat like this, more or less but it seems like its much worse now. Ask yourself a few questions. Do you really know who your neighbors are? Do you trust them? Are you sure? Would you let them baby sit your 13 year old daughter or give them the key to your house to watch while you go on vacation? I'll bet you are thinking about that? Has your home ever been invaded or broken into. Watch out there country dwellers you are on the list now. You can spend a small fortune for that security system but you are not untouchable anymore. I have never heard of that happening till a few years ago. Even you out there in the country in your 5 Million dollar home. You are not safe. Try and buy a hand gun to protect yourself. They are even taking that away from you too. Remember when you could leave in the morning and not lock your door? I do....
Has there ever been a suicide in your family? No, but I'll bet you know someone who has? Has divorce hit your family? Your kids or nieces and nephews? Do you smoke cigarettes? Could you stop if you wanted to?... Right, try it.. How about Alcoholism or Drug Addiction? Do you really know what your son or daughter would do to get the drink or drug he or she needs when craving it? Do you have an Alcoholic or Drug addict in your family? Did you know that alcoholism is an inherited disease?... Maybe it would it would be a good idea to read about addiction and learn. Have you been touched by those diseases yet...Notice I said yet...Have you felt the misery of a death by car accident on the highways these days or by the horrendous weather we are having? Has a family member or even a friend ever been raped or murdered? How about losing your job or your home? Have you ever had your car repossessed? Have you ever been watched so much you are starting to get paranoid? Your cell phone is really a hand held computer that will tell everyone everything. Are you or your kids addicted to your phone. Do you go back and get it if you forget it at home? Could you go a day without it? I did...Try that. Those cards the Supermarket uses. The ones you scan to buy something. Right, even they know what you are doing all the time. Ever wonder why you need a plastic card to buy almost anything? Even the banks know if and when you pay your bills.
How about your kids. Have they left the family nest to go out in the world only to come back to live with you again? Are they saving for their future and retirement? Hell, are you saving for your future and retirement? The way things are going now you won't be able to retire until you are 70. That's only if Social Security has any money left. Will you be healthy enough to work until you are 70?..... 27% of Americans have no savings for that rainy day....All those wonderful politicians you voted for that are spending millions to get elected or reelected are robbing you blind. Ask them about their retirement and health care. Don't believe me? Just wait, you will see!
Remember when you knew the cop on the beat by his first name? The police today are more Military than anything else. They all look alike with their shaved heads, bullet proof vests and combat fatigues. They carry automatic weapons like in a the army. Police departments of today now have hazmat teams and bomb squads. You haven't lived until you have been evacuated from a building because of a bomb threat or a mysterious white powder scare. Kids are being shot in schools everyday somewhere in this country. And no its not just the ghettos. It can happen to you...(((Oh, can I still say ghettos?))) Think about that? Have your children been in a locked down school because of a white powder, gun or bomb scare? Its happening more and more. You are being scrutinized, searched, listened too and watched everywhere you go. From the highways and stores to Facebook and Google. Yes, you are...and there isn't a Blessed thing you or I can do about it.
You and your kids are being programmed by "Nintendo" games or while you are watching those horrible reality shows on TV, which are not real by the way. What about the the TV and movie violence? It is the worst I have ever seen. Because of the movies and TV, promiscuity is normal and modesty is nonexistent? There is nothing left to the imagination. Remember, young minds without supervision are the future copycats and you know what means. They actually need someone to tell them difference between right and wrong...As the years, months and days go by in this computer world the odds of something I just described happening to you is rapidly increasing. So if you think you were careful before, brother you haven't seen anything yet....All because of money...The Bastards out there will do anything to steal or sell you something. Nothing else matters....They don't care about anything else...

Whether you know this or not, your friendly U.S. government has been defoliating "drug fields" in Colombia for the past decade, many thanks to your tax dollars, (nicely wasted, of course, with full support of taxpayers who are thinking like you) so far we have sprayed areas in Colombia the size of the State of Connecticut...the result? You only need to see how that has not stopped the supply of heroin to CT at any time...when there's demand, there will be supply or willing supplier/s. $5-10 a bag of street heroin for something worth $0.10...you do the math. Afghanistan poppy harvest is not for the US market, but still a problem worldwide obviously. But let's stick to our problem here at home in CT...I recommend a peek at www.whoischuu.com and we can talk some more and really do something good and effective for everyone, especially for the families like these featured in these series of Portraits of Addiction. Regards, Sylvester
PS. when I was a student at the Naval War College, 1990-91, a U.S. Air Force officer wrote a paper about using B-52's to carpet bomb drug fields in Colombia. He obviously must have been a B-52 pilot or bombardier, protecting his turf. Go Air power! full disclosure: I'm a Navy guy. Remember 1990-91, is one year after the end of the cold war (Fall of Berlin Wall) and a decade before the War on Terrorism (2003-present)...but remember in1990-91, due Saddam's invasion of Kuwait, the attitude and appreciation for the U.S. military changed 180 degrees from the days after the Vietnam War.
50,00 attendees getting on their high horse, sounding off and pontificating to the rest of the world while comfortably traveling to and from Paris in their private jets. Add in two weeks of hotels, taxis, espressos, pastries, cold cuts and wine toasts, and you realize that these talks are not free in terms of raw emissions. In fact, it's nothing more than man-made hot air and political manure. Money talks and bullshit walks.
Here is a good question for your trusted Senator or Congressman. With the problems that we are now having with heroin in this country why are we not using napalm or an exfoliant on the poppy fields or is everything synthetic now?
This is the lunch that President Richard Nixon ate on August 8, 1974, just before going on national television to announce that he was resigning. On a silver tray on White House china are pineapple slices and cottage cheese, accompanied by a glass of milk. White House photographer Robert Knudsen captured it on film.
Today, it's commonplace to take food photos, but back then, and especially in the White House, photos of food were very rare.
KILROY WAS HERE
If you're old enough you will remember the KILROY story.
He is engraved in stone in the National War Memorial in Washington DC. Its in back in a small alcove where very few people have seen it. For the WWII generation, this will bring back memories. For you younger folks, it's a bit of trivia that is a part of our American history. Anyone born in 1913 to about 1950, is familiar with Kilroy. No one knew why he was so well known- but everybody seemed to get into it.
So who was Kilroy? In 1946 the American Transit Association, through its radio program, "Speak to America ," sponsored a nationwide contest to find the real Kilroy, offering a prize of a real trolley car to the person who could prove himself to be the genuine article. Almost 40 men stepped forward to make that claim, but only James Kilroy from Halifax , Massachusetts , had evidence of his identity. 'Kilroy' was a 46-year old shipyard worker during the war who worked as a checker at the Fore River Shipyard in Quincy . His job was to go around and check on the number of rivets completed. Riveters were on piecework and got paid by the rivet. He would count a block of rivets and put a check mark in semi-waxed lumber chalk, so the rivets wouldn't be counted twice. When Kilroy went off duty, the riveters would erase the mark.
Later on, an off-shift inspector would come through and count the rivets a second time, resulting in double pay for the riveters.
One day Kilroy's boss called him into his office. The foreman was upset about all the wages being paid to riveters, and asked him to investigate. It was then he realized what had been going on. The tight spaces he had to crawl in to check the rivets didn't lend themselves to lugging around a paint can and brush, so Kilroy decided to stick with the waxy chalk. He continued to put his check mark on each job he inspected, but added 'KILROY WAS HERE' in king-sized letters next to the che ck, and eventually added the sketch of the chap with the long nose peering over the fence and that became part of the Kilroy message.
Once he did that, the riveters stopped trying to wipe away his marks. Ordinarily the rivets and chalk marks would have been covered up with paint. With the war on, however, ships were leaving the Quincy Yard so fast that there wasn't time to paint them. As a result, Kilroy's inspection "trademark" was seen by thousands of servicemen who boarded the troopships the yard produced.
His message apparently rang a bell with the servicemen, because they picked it up and spread it all over Europe and the South Pacific.
Before war's end, "Kilroy" had been here, there, and everywhere on the long hauls to Berlin and Tokyo . To the troops outbound in those ships, however, he was a complete mystery; all they knew for sure was that someone named Kilroy had "been there first." As a joke, U.S. servicemen began placing the graffiti wherever they landed, claiming it was already there when they arrived.
Kilroy became the U.S. super- G I who had always "already been" wherever G Is went. It became a challenge to place the logo in the most unlikely places imaginable (it is said to be atop Mt. Everest , the Statue of Liberty , the underside of the Arc de Triomphe, and even scrawled in the dust on the moon.
As the war went on, the legend grew. Underwater demolition teams routinely sneaked ashore on Japanese-held islands in the Pacific to map the terrain for coming invasions by U.S. troops (and thus, presumably, were the first G I's there). On one occasion, however, they reported seeing enemy troops painting over the Kilroy logo!
In 1945, an outhouse was built for the exclusive use of Roosevelt, Stalin, and Churchill at the Potsdam conference. Its' first occupant was Stalin, who emerged and asked his aide (in Russian), "Who is Kilroy?"
To help prove his authenticity in 1946, James Kilroy brought along officials from the shipyard and some of the riveters. He won the trolley car, which he gave to his nine children as a Christmas gift and set it up as a playhouse in the Kilroy yard in Halifax , Massachusetts .
And The Tradition Continues... EVEN Outside Osama Bin Laden's House!!!
I know of people, family and so called friends who run and hide their heads in the sand because they fear getting old. They ignore their parents and relatives so they don’t have to take care of them. They give the obligatory Christmas plant because it puts a band-aid on the guilt and they don’t feel so bad themselves. I don’t know what it is? They have this emptiness, this void. They live in an imaginary world. Was is the way they were brought up that they lack compassion and kindness or is it the world we live in? The world of imaginary perfection. Its such a shame they are the way they are because it may feel ok to stay away now, its later that they will pay the price. Nothing is for nothing. There is always a consequence to questionable behavior. If you are just selfish or even angry and seek revenge, that little feeling of guilt might feel small and pass at the moment but it gets bigger as you get older and someday in the not to distant future when you look in the mirror the past and that little feeling of guilt catches up to you and turns into a huge pang of fear. You might think that you have buried your conscience but it will surface when you least expect it. Even if you think you don’t have one. When you go to visit your parents or grand parents in the convalescent home or assisted living center visit the seniors that are there. Do it because you want to not because you have to. Help them to smile. Keep in mind the sayings “Time fly’s” and remember, “What goes around comes around“.
I knew most of this stuff. Refreshing my memory.. Its true.. what he says.. The Casinos and the mob in Atlantic City and New York... It was all about his ego, money and corruption. He has not changed.. This run for President is a major goal for bragging rights. He has been trying to run for years to do this.. This is as close he has gotten so far. That is what he is all about. The worst thing is Corrupt murderer Hillery is NO better. I don't see anything good happening in the United States for many years.. If you think the death and riots are bad now just wait.. These 2 rats do not care about the people. They have no idea what is happening. They live in a entirely different world..
Commercials, Ads, Pop-ups, or obnoxious videos without permission is an invasion of privacy and deserve any negative action against them. I will never buy anything or condone any interruption in my service. I will make it my goal in life to discourage anybody and everybody from putting up with the insanity these bottom feeders try to sell.. You have my word on that....
Armed with machine guns and machetes Connecticut's brave officers of the Dept. of Environmental Protection set out to kill anything that stood in their way.. Bears, Swans, Ducks, Skunks, Geese and Possums didn't stand a chance as they shot and Killed everything in the woods.. My God I feel much safer now.. I'll be able to sleep tonight.. ....
This is located in Stonington Connecticut across the street (Route 1) from Ruth Buzzi's dad's house. He was a grave stone engraver in this area. I seen people cleaning out his old house the other day. He must have died a while ago. I don't think he had anything to do with the boat yard.. There is a another small boat yard next to this one still working. These new pictures are what is left of the boat yard. The houses, camper and view... The old school is dieing around here. Most is left to probate, lawyers and family that doesn't care. I found it on G earth looking for a quiet place. I use the old boat dock to meditate and to listen and watch the birds and seagulls. I remember driving by this area 20 years ago. It was very prosperous. Now there are a lot of empty run down homes.. Now its tourist season. All seasonal business. Its a ghost town when they are gone.. Literally, a ghost boat yard...
We are all prey for the money mongers who make money on our addictions. From the compulsion spending on things we don’t need to our minor and real addictions. We are constantly encouraged to buy because we need this an that….Its continuous repetition and temptation to spend….They say coffee is good for you to encourage you to spend. It can’t be that good if you stop drinking it will give you a headache. Just makes sense, doesn’t it?
There is no “Cure” for addiction. Once you stop using you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The progression of the disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to get better. Addiction is a disease like Cancer, or Sugar Diabetes. There is no cure.
The only solution is a neat little bar code or a GPS implant somewhere on your body….They have them on dogs and cats why not on humans? It just makes sense….Cashier Amy wasn’t shocked and she actually thought I was serious. To her the idea was just one of those things that will happen sooner or later and acceptable……How do you know there isn’t some kind of locater on your body right now? A microscopic pin point that can hear and find you…….Wait, there is and its called a cell phone…..Wait again, the reason the Government doesn’t care how many people there are in this country is…What’s the first thing they buy when they get to this country? A cell phone…Wow…. I could be on to something……………..
I believe something is going on...But If you can get a picture of the smoke coming from a engine at say 50 or 60,000 feet you can hang around an airport long enough to get a shot of (more than one) truck being loaded with, not fuel but chemicals. I'd like to see that. If I wanted to get picture I would follow the tanker (any oil or aviation fuel tanker truck) to see where he goes. I would even be persistent enough to get a sample...?
If I have learned anything in the relatively short life span we have, its two things. Choices (self explanatory) and Burning Bridges. Always leave a little room for negotiation..
Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don,t waste anything. Mention the chemicals and growth hormones and steroids and the torture and pain of a slaughter house.
It was an Interesting day yesterday…My usual breakfast with friends but what was more interesting was, well not really that interesting but it was more of a “you never really know who is watching you day“….One of my Ex’s posted a comment on Twitter that she was reading my Facebook page and Journal. I should say she found my Journal and said, now get this, She said, “:I’m amazed seeing inside his head. She went on in 140 characters or less…”I just can't conceive of that much intensity all the time!” Was that a compliment or an insult? Wait, hold it right there…“Intense”. Now that’s food for thought. Hell, I never thought it was intense. I am intensely angry with the changes and the complete disregard of what the future of our country and state will be. I haven’t been posting lately because I’m sure no one wants to read my constant condemnation of our so-called leaders, and law makers. I heard that one yesterday “Law Makers“! What a joke…They all sit around trying to look serious when the TV cameras are on but behind the scenes they are making back room deals, laughing and telling jokes about how much they will be able to steal from your wallet. See what I mean? It always comes out like that…I can’t help it…I’m sorry...I try not to be upset but what can I say. Some times I wish I was blind or ignorant to what's happening and could go around like nothing is happening. Intense yes…I know I’m not the only one that feels like this…On me not posting. I can only say, I can’t think of anything good to say so I’m not saying anything… Did she insult me? I still can’t figure that out.
"C'est Si Bon"
“Peacocking”
What happened to Abracadabra?
"Lucy, I think you've got some 'splainin' to do." ...
Believe it or not someone called the way I write “intense”. Well I believe that if I hid my head in the sand nothing would get done in this country or in cased the world. You cannot pretend nothing is wrong and gleefully go on your way.
Its also know as a Stepping stone drug called Pot, Dope and Weed. Using this drug Is the same as smoking Cigarettes and in my opinion will cause Cancer...Medical Marijuana is just the term they use to make it legal. For Addictive personality's, usually addiction runs in the family. Especially those should not use this Drug because it will lead to using Cocaine and other deadly substances. The Governor today signed the death warrant for thousands of Connecticut kids and adults alike.
Just a few more thoughts…
Didn’t go the party yesterday the guest of honor was ill….The party was postponed till spring which is in only 28 more days….
When I was working we used to have a guy that made homemade Pasta Vasul. God, do I miss that. I like saying that…….Pasta Vasul……
I wonder if the Shuttle crew can see things blowing up in Afghanistan?
I’ll never understand how or why a guy will wear his pants around the bottom of his bottom. I’m sure you have seen that….Someone told me they are called “Wanna-be’s. Whatever that is. I think its some sort of club. Someone should tell them it doesn’t help them if they need to run for their life. It would be unmanly to run pulling up your pants.
My dad use to say, “Lorenzo behave yourself I don’t want to see any monkey shines” I have no idea what a monkey shine is……. I looked it up on Wikipedia and I’m not sure I like the definition.
Speaking of Wikipedia….I joined that the other day. Now, I’ve got to figure out why…..
I think my Dad had a thing for monkeys…..At times when I would copy something or do things that other youngsters would do He would say, “Lorenzo, monkey see monkey do“……It could be why I like monkeys today……
My grandfather, father and grand mother called me Lorenzo. My mother called me Lawrence. My aunt hung the Monika Larry on me….Today most people call me Lar…
Every once and a while when I was young I would be upset over something trivial. My dad would say, “Lorenzo don’t make a mountain out of a mole hill”.
When I was young…Somewhere around 3rd or 4th grade. I was the victim of a bully. I’m sure there are many of us that have had that kind of trauma happen….I came home crying and my dad explained very carefully what to do when confronted with this behavior…..Keep in mind I was a shy quiet kid and found it very difficult and painful to be in that situation as I’m sure many of us were. My dad took me aside and told me when this bully started to pick on me and push me around to pretend to run away and when he chased me to turn quick and punch him in the nose…..He said, “The force of the punch with him running into my fist would cause his nose to bleed“. He told me that he would never pick on me again. I never got a chance to do that. The bully died 6 months later of a brain tumor. Years later I worked with his dad in the same building. It just happened to be in the building where the guy made the Pasta Vasul. I never mentioned that incident to his dad…..I’ll bet he thought of his son when he seen me……We were the same age…..
Now that you mention that. I was at an event last Saturday morning and shared a story with the woman who sat next to me. It was about gratitude. I suggested that sometimes its overwhelming. I think you know what I mean.. After the event was over she came to me and asked me if she could hug me.. I humbly accepted her wonderful tight 10 second hug reminding her she was not alone.. All she had to do is say thank you.. I had to share that because I think you understand... I have that inner peace..
Please, if anyone knows who my sons are and where they are I would deeply appreciate it if you would Email them a copy of this note. This will be the last commutation ever to my two sons, David and Stephen. Unless they contact me, this will be the last time I will ever write or speak about the way I feel about these two ungrateful people…..
Thank you,
David and Stephen… I'm sure that I can speak for your beautiful Mother when I say this. I’m also absolutely sure she is in Heaven looking down on you wondering why you turned out to be like you are. You can rest assure she wouldn’t have liked it very much. I can say this honestly because I loved her and knew her better than you ever could.
To begin with, when we gave you life, we were very young and inexperienced and if we knew what miserable adults you would be at this point in your lives, you would have never been born. We would have spared you the indignity of becoming the thoughtless, inconsiderate young men that you are today. It was because we were so inexperienced and innocent at that young age that you were conceived. I am sure many other young people regret having children but none more than me.. Your Mother and I tried with all the knowledge we had at the time to teach you to be men. We gave you your life and everything we had… We tried the best we knew how. Now it’s your choices that are causing you the misery and hate I know you feel today. However, I also know for sure that you will never ever stop thinking about us and how we tried to help you and how you didn’t listen.
Regarding me. I cannot undue what you think happened, however 36 years later I am still your Father but you have no idea who I am. Who I have become…That will never change because of the way you are. Just remember I will always be your Father till the day you die. As much as you try, you will never forget that. You will never know me and how I have changed. No matter what you do I will always be somewhere in your thoughts and your thoughts will never change. Especially when you get older…You can make excuses and deny, deny, deny and I truly feel sorry for you. I pity you. Remember, your life came from my seed. I gave you your names. Stephen and David…You came from me! That will never, ever change. At this point in your pathetic lives and you may not think so now but keep in mind, life is very short. In the not too distant future I won’t be here but I will always be with you and my blood is in your kids and their kids as part of me till the day you DIE.. In your travels, wherever you go whatever you do remember to look around you, I’m standing right beside you. Don’t you ever forget that..
Thought to Ponder . . .
Minds are like parachutes ~ they won't work unless they're open.
As always and forever, Your Dad..
I was reading Capt. Chesley Sullenburger’s book about his life as an a Air Force fighter pilot then as an airline pilot. He’s the guy that landed in the Hudson river and saved all those people. Lately I have been writing about some of my experiences working on the ground at an airport so guys like him could take off or land those planes….I don’t mean anything by that. I just loved my job. I always thought of it as a very exciting thing to do for a living. I mean who else gets to see a plane land with no landing gear. Or a F-105 fighter make a 300 foot pass over main runway at just below the sound barrier speed. That’s about 600 miles an hour. Talk about earth shaking….You can’t imagine what that sounds like. You cannot duplicate that sound in the movies. We, the air traffic controllers, flight deck personal and myself are called Penguins.….The birds that don’t fly…We just make sure that the pilots can…We get them off the ground or land them as safely as possible…I was reading an excerpt on how he diverted to another destination airport to try to save a woman who had a heart attack. She didn’t make it. He said, “She died as he was landing the plane“. I never told the story of the FAA (Federal Aviation Administration) pilot who was landing on the same runway I was working on. I glanced up towards the approach and in the distance seen that a Cessna Citation was landing. I seen him in the air coming towards us. I just cleared the runway in time as he touched down where the car was……I saved some lives that day. …Me and my helper, the pilot, the co-pilot and the people on that plane…..I think I’ll write a book about that, leading up to events that happened that day. I’ll describe how I got ready to go to work, not knowing I could be close to losing my life if it wasn‘t for my quick decision making and experience. If I didn't see that plane people would have lost their lives…I could write about how I went over to that pilot and got really close to his face and with my finger pointing at him told him what I thought of the way he landed. I could describe in detail how I reported him to FAA officials… Well, I don’t want bore with details…After all, I didn’t land in a river…….
"In the late 1600’s and 1700’s, Norwich was an important colonial seaport trading with the West Indies. Slaves were imported to Southeastern Connecticut from the West Indies during this period. They became personal servants, laborers and craftsmen. By 1756, the Black community numbered 223. Many had purchased their own freedom or had been freed by their owners. Former slave Guy Druck, a blacksmith, built this house at 76 Church St. in the 1850’s. His skills were renowned and actively sought by ship builders for components such as anchors.
“No history is mute. No matter how much they own it, break it, and lie about it, human history refuses to shut its mouth. Despite deafness and ignorance, the time that was continues to tick inside the time that is.” Eduardo Galeno
The Seaside (Waterford, Connecticut)
The Seaside is in Waterford, Connecticut that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995. Also known as Seaside Sanatorium or as Seaside Regional Center, it was built or has other significance[clarification needed] in 1934 in Tudor Revival and Classical Revival style, and was designed by noted architect Cass Gilbert. It served historically as a sanatorium.
It is nationally significant as the first institution designed for heliotropic treatment of children suffering from tuberculosis. Its buildings "comprise an exceptional collection of fully realized and generally well-preserved Tudor Revival-style institutional architecture".
Old Newgate Prison was a Colonial American prison in what is now East Granby, Connecticut. It is now a historic site. The prison was originally a copper mine, opened in 1705, and is believed to be the first copper mine in America. After mining operations proved unprofitable, the colony of Connecticut converted it to a prison, like its London namesake Newgate Prison. The first prisoner, John Hinson, was committed for burglary in 1773. Later Tories and Loyalists were held here during the American Revolutionary War. In 1790 it became a state prison, the first such in America. In 1827, the remaining 81 prisoners were transferred to the new, "state-of-the-art" Wethersfield State Prison. After the prison closed, mining operations resumed for a time but since the 1860s it has been mainly a tourist attraction. Nearby Peak Mountain offers a bird's eye view of Old Newgate Prison from the Metacomet Trail. In 1972 Old Newgate Prison was declared a National Historic Landmark.[2][3] The site is now owned and administered by the State of Connecticut as a museum.
Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors and lawyers.
One evening, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed the 95th birthday gifts they were able to give their elderly mother, who had moved to Florida .
The first said, "You know, I had a big house built for Mama."
The second said, " And I had a large theater built in her house."
The third said, "And I had my Mercedes dealer deliver an SL600 to her."
The fourth said, "You know how Mama loved reading the Bible, and you know she can't read anymore because she can't see very well. I met a preacher who told me about a parrot who could recite the entire Bible. It took ten preachers almost 8 years to teach him. To get the bird, I had to pledge to contribute $50,000 a year for five years to the church, but it was worth it. Mama only has to name the chapter and verse, and the parrot will recite it."
The other brothers were impressed. After the celebration, Mama sent out her "Thank You" notes.
She wrote: Milton, the house you built is so huge that I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway."
"Marvin, I am too old to travel. I stay home; I have my groceries delivered, so I never use the Mercedes. But the thought was good. Thanks."
"Michael, you gave me an expensive theater with Dolby sound and it can hold 50 people, but all of my friends are dead, I've lost my hearing, and I'm nearly blind. I'll never use it. Thank you for the gesture, just the same."
"Dearest Melvin, you were the only son to have the good sense to give a little thought to your gift. The chicken was delicious. Thank you so much."
Love, Mama

This is a picture of my Uncle Lorenzo Ferrari
He was born in 1910 and he died in a drowning
accident in the Canal Basin in Windsor Locks Connecticut
in 1923. He was 13 years old. He was swimming with some of his friends when he disappeared from sight in the murky water.
Years later I questioned one of these friends and
he said they searched franticly to find him but to no avail.
Lorenzo’s parents, my Grandparents had this picture
made in memory of his short life. He left 3 brothers and one sister. Joseph, Louis, Santino and Mary. Joseph was my father. Lorenzo is buried in Saint Mary’s cemetery in Windsor Locks Connecticut. My parents named me after Lorenzo calling me Lawrence. I am proud to be named after him….
Update..... First published on 2/27/2013.
On and on it goes... America is not a country anymore its become a business... The wars and greed gets thicker in Obama's new America. It can't last forever...How long will it be before it implodes? Obama's Illinois sly sneaky grins and winks will fade away. The question is? Is it too late? Have you become one of Obama's new clones? No, not one of those plastic human like machines on the Si-Fi channel or in the movies, not scientifically made but the kind made from your new environment. From now on or at least for a little while there is no middle class! You are ether rich or you are poor. Now you suffer or you don’t. For the poor, rage and anger are the new attitudes. Death, Fear and Terrorism are the norm. For the rich, they just don’t care..There is no in-between. The majority of you have now been programed and coerced into buying anything they are selling because of instant gratification and because they say you need to have it. Your freedom of choice is literally gone. You are doing these things automatically now. Your corrupt Illinois President and all your corrupt leaders in Washington are bought and paid for by the oil company's greed and big business. You are all blind or have been blinded to what is going on around you. You see and hear only what they want you to see and hear when they want you to see it and hear it. Everywhere you go, what ever you do. Whether its watching TV, being at the airport, buying food at the store, talking on your cell or just driving down the street. They know what you are doing, where you are and when you are doing it. They are watching and listening to you all the time. You have now become a statistic. You are just a number, a bar code. If you are too young to spend money they don’t need you. If you are old, you have become a throw away that is too expensive to take care of. They are slowly taking away your food stamps (SNAP) and health benefit's so you will die. Your peace of mind and serenity have been manipulated into buying material things and for the most part your freedom of choice has been taken away. They continue to lie and say everything is OK and you really believe them... They want you to think that drugs and alcohol are to have a good time and not addictive. They don’t care because all they want is for you to do spend money. That is what its all about. You are officially living in a very sick society and have been for a while now....
The Ten Ways to tell if you are a Obama Clone. Be honest if that is possible anymore..
1. Do you walk around staring at your hand (Cell phone) for more than an hour a day?
2. Do you ever mute a TV show and watch commercials?
3. Could you NOT watch TV if you didn’t want to?
4. Do you let your kids play electronic games when the sun is out?
5. Do you play electronics games for more than 2 hours a day?
6. Are 2 of your 3 credit cards maxed out?
7. Do you buy things you don’t need when you can’t afford it?
8. Do you get up and watch Morning TV?
9. Do you charge things even if you have the cash to pay for it?
10. Do you think that Reality Shows are real?
If you answered no to these questions you have been programed to lie. If you have answered yes to two of these questions you are turning into a Obama Clone and you are being programed....Your life span will be been shortened...
The Catholic theological definition of a lie is, "To deny others access to knowledge to which they are entitled". The dictionary describes a lie as “Deliberately saying something that’s untrue“. A deception, hiding a secret, an untruth and lies of omission are still lies. It’s all the same no matter what you call it or how you say it. From the moment a lie is conceived it begins to grow. It has life. It’s the beginning of its cycle. It has a life span. When a lie is told, someone’s future could be changed. A lie is told or suggested to someone. A lie is always a secret. Its something that someone doesn’t want someone to know. There is always a victim, if convinced and the person doesn’t suspect, a trusting unsuspecting or even a suspicious victim will believe it. Usually a lie is a cover up of a mistake. It could be a broken promise, a secret or something embarrassing. It could be anything and to what degree will it be painful when found out. It depends on who tells the lie. The longer a lie is left untold the more damage or pain it will cause. If left uncorrected the lie will fester and expand for weeks, months, years and maybe even generations. It doesn’t matter, sooner or later the victim of a lie will be hurt. Sometimes the teller of lies is so convincing that they believe the lie themselves. A lie can start at the telling of story, the denial of an affair or even something smaller. The key to being a good liar is to believe your own lies. The first thing the victim does when told the truth, or the truth is uncovered, is wonder why? That leads to anger, pain, hate and resentment. A feeble attempt to cover it up and manipulate the truth usually fails but not always, its just a matter of time and its out in the open. This is a story of a lie in progress that is supposed a secret but as we know, if two people know a secret it isn’t a secret. Remember, there are two kinds of truth. The real truth and the truth as seen through the eyes of a compulsive liar.......L.J. Ferrari
Middle age is when it takes longer to rest than to get tired.
By the time a man is wise enough to watch his step, he's too old to go anywhere.
Middle age is when you have stopped growing at both ends, and have begun to grow in the middle.
Someone has described heaven as a family reunion that never ends. What could hell possibly be like? Home videos of the same reunion?
At my age, "getting a little action" means I don't need to take a laxative.
The aging process could be slowed down if it had to work its way through the Senate. *** (so very true!)
DID YOU
KNOW As you walk up the
steps to the building which houses
the U.S. Supreme Court
you can see near the top
of the building a row of the
world's law givers and
each one is facing one in the
middle who is facing forward
with a fullfrontal view ...
It is Moses
and he is holding the
Ten Commandments!
DID YOU KNOW?
As you enter the
Supreme Court courtroom,
the two huge oak doors have the
Ten Commandments
engraved on each
lower portion of each door.
DID YOU KNOW?
As you sit inside the courtroom,
you can see the wall, right above where
the Supreme Court Judges sit,
a display of
the Ten Commandments
DID YOU KNOW?
There are Bible Verses
etched in stone
all over the Federal
Buildings and Monuments in
Washington ,
D.C.
DID YOU KNOW?
James Madison,
the fourth president,
known as 'The Father
of Our Constitution'
made the Following
statement:
'We have staked the
whole of all our political
Institutions upon the
capacity of mankind
for
Self-government,
upon the capacity of each and
all of us
to govern ourselves,
to control ourselves,
to sustain ourselves
according to
The Ten Commandments
of God.'
DID YOU KNOW?
Every session of Congress
begins with a prayer by a paid
preacher, whose salary has been
paid by the taxpayer since 1777.
DID YOU
KNOW?
Fifty-two of the 55
founders of the Constitution
were members of the established
Orthodox churches in the colonies..
DID YOU KNOW?
Thomas Jefferson worried
that the Courts would
overstep their authority
and
instead of Interpreting
the law would begin
making law an
oligarchy:
the rule of few over many.
How then,
have we gotten to the point
that everything
we have done for
220 years in this
Country is now suddenly
wrong and
Unconstitutional?
Let’s put it around the world and
let the world see and remember
what this great country was Built on
The Holy Bible
and belief in GOD!
is a High School picture of my Dad on the left. He was the greatest Dad in the world..
Since the digital picture age started a few years ago did you ever notice that there are no real pictures anymore? Remember, what they use to call a photograph? I mean pictures that you keep for 50 years to hand down to your kids for the “memories“. Those memories were triggered by those little pieces of paper...Yes, I agree, digital graphics are clear and it is faster than film but the real pictures on paper are missing. Remember pictures? The kind you had developed and put on paper. You took pictures with your little Brownie or if you could afford it, the 35mm camera that you bought in a real camera store. My wife’s grandfather gave me my first 35 because his hands shook and the pictures came out blurry…His name was George…You then took that roll of film to the local drug store and waited sometimes with anticipation to have them developed to see how they “came out“. Then you knew that years later your kids could look in that box in the back of the closet to see what Mom and Dad did with you and your brothers and sisters or your wonderful relatives years ago. I’ll bet you didn’t know families did mostly every thing together. Beaches, picnics and they visited each others homes almost every weekend. Mom and Dad even visited Grandma and Granddad and took pictures of them. Sometimes they bought little frames and put those paper pictures in them just to remember how wonderful their parents were… I see pictures of my Father and remember what a wonderful person he was and how he patiently and delicately guided me around the pitfalls of this dangerous world. To this day I have a picture of my Dad hanging where I can see it every day…
Well no more. I mean no pictures on paper that you can save to see, say 10, 20, or even 50 years from now. Your kids and their kids won’t know who their Grand parents were, never mind what they looked like.. They won’t know who you were or what you looked like. They won’t have those precious memories that you have… This world and its odd society have even taken away your memories and your past.. Its almost like you are only here for a few years and then discarded.. Its like you don’t count anymore. In a little while you won’t exist…
I realize that my posts have been short with a lot of useless information. Lately I haven’t been in the mood for much of anything… I’m tired of all the bad news and endless chatter and excuses from the politicans and wanna-be famous. Its like it’s a huge cycle and with the new year its just starting all over again. Not one So-called leader in Washington is saying anything but the usual nonsense. No one is addressing the real issues. Anger, welfare, illegal’s, immigration, crime, homelessness, drug addiction, drug smuggling and fraud in the system or corruption. No one is saying anything about the fact that there are too many people and will talk about over-population. No one will say anything about conservation, the environment, joblessness, greed, education, bullying, gay issues or the prices of food. No one will say one word about cops shooting unarmed people. They all live in a bubble. They are all Lawyears. All they do is lie about each other. Not one of these morons knows anything about the real feelings of the people. They all went to private schools and were protected from the outside world. What do they know about emotional pain? These are people with the summer cottages and private beaches. They are all liars. I resent them all….Democrat and Republican. When was the last time anyone one of these freaks flew on a airliner? They all fly with private jets. When was the last time they were searched by an x-ray machine and were embarrassed and had their things pawed through. They all have people that do their flying, driving and shopping. They all have nannies, chefs, servants and public relation people that repair damage or put a spin on a bad story… Not one of these fools really cares about you and me. They have no idea what really happens when you are out of money a week before payday and they are going to shut your lights off before you can pay the bill… They don‘t know the hopeless feeling it is when you don‘t have a job and you have to borrow money from your father to eat……….See what I mean, I don’t have to tell you all this stuff. Its all the same and it will never change and to me its so boring because its been going on for years. The people of today are like clones and sheep being led around by the nose. I have been saying it for months….Its only going to get worse… It will never get better and really change and if it does, the problems will still be there, only you will have to pay double for it… While you are doing that you might as well give them a raise and a new fleet of bullet proof limos. They are going to need them in the future…..
“Ignorance is bliss”. These days that is so true…
What are parents not doing? Are they setting a good example? Do they set limits? At what age do you say enough is enough...Its still OK to say “Don’t watch that show“ Its still OK to say if your friend jumps of the bridge doesn‘t mean you have to! .. Most of the problems start when both parents work and the kids are left unattended. The supervision that young people desperately need is not there. This is how the trouble begins. Young people with very curious minds should be reminded that the TV show they watch is just what the name implies. “A Show” or an act and its not real. Its as simple as that. Tell them its fake and in between the commercials and ads that entice you buy something its designed to titillate your imagination. To provoke you into doing things that will hurt you. To make you spend money. Believe me that is true…Most shows today are designed to sell you something. A game or a product or a drug. TV today is only an advertising tool you involuntarily let into your house so they can make money. Think of it as something, “that sell things continuously“. The entertainment value is practically zero. A few years ago they had something called prime time TV...Now its mostly an exhibition of who can do the most asinine things…Real people are not like this but we are turning into a society that does crazy things to be famous. What they do is just an act for the camera. The shows or sitcoms that are still there are laced with body part jokes that are more for shock value and are not in the least bit funny. Did you notice the bullying epidemic got worst when a show called “Glee” started. The writers of that show wrote “Nip-tuck“. Doesn’t that tell you something? They turned the “Talent show” craze into a show that goes to the edge. One that pushes things to the limit. Yet, no one did anything about it. Those writers are allowed to poison the minds of the kids who will believe the stuff they write..Its the same thing with so-called reality TV. Its not real.. Then there is the internet…Believe me here, parents cannot let young minds go on the internet without supervision… Never ever trust your son or daughter to do this alone. It’s like giving them a handgun and bullets then telling them to never to load the gun… Its mental suicide… The cell phone is something else that is addicting and hazardous to your mental health. Not to mention it costs a small fortune every month. People will do practically anything to pay the cell phone bill every month. We have turned into a society walking around looking at our palms addicted to a hand held computer. How many Politicians and celebrities were caught exposing their private parts via text message? Do your kids do that? Do your kids send sex messages? When was the last time you checked your son or daughters cell phone? Think about that… A young mind is very open to suggestions good or bad. A kid will usually try anything once. TV ads prey on families where both parents work. The advertisers know this and don’t care. Its like they are setting a bad example on purpose. Young minds are being shoved and pushed in the wrong direction everyday. Families are in chaos and being torn apart because of drug and alcohol addiction. Sickness and health mean nothing anymore… My solution is simply not to watch TV. The more I talk to people about this phenomenon the more I hear of them doing the same thing. By not watching TV I feel a lot better and my mind is clear of negative thoughts and ideas. Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. They don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or dies...
The other day I wrote about the TV mini series “Great Expectations” and “Downton Abbey”. I also enjoy reading Jane Austin and Anita Shrive novels about the past. I also mentioned how I wished I was living back in that time period. When I left the house the other day I was thinking about that. As I was driving to the store and as I usually do, going the long way around. I noticed that when I go someplace, it could be anywhere. To the store or just to go out for the sake of going out. I always go by way of the back roads and through neighborhoods with shortcuts where the older homes are. They remind me of growing up and where I used to live. The roads I travel on, on my way to getting there are quiet and you very seldom see any other cars. Years ago there weren’t that many cars and I like it that way. I just came to realized that I’m living in the past…Sort of. Then during one of my walks on the beach where I meditate, I really thought about it and if were up to me things remain the same. Yes, I do have all the modern conveniences plus and my car is a 2005 Mustang…I bought it new. The point is it’s a Mustang and not a foreign car. I try not to buy anything foreign. I wear corduroy pants and leather boots in the winter, now get this, with suspenders and I dress nicely all the time. I ride a bicycle in the summer and I have been doing that for years. My diet is eat anything I want, only half as much. I noticed s while ago that I eat just like my Dad. In fact I eat the same kinds of foods he did. He was born in 1915. Then there is what I watch on TV or in the movies. I lean toward the older movies and of coarse movies about the seventeen and eighteen hundreds and I love the way the people lived then. Stories about Kings and Queens are my favorite…The way I see it, if I lived during that time period I would have been a gentleman and a man who enjoys helping people. I would have rode a horse to where ever I went. A Mustang perhaps? ….Now, I actually believe I am stuck in the 1950s or 60s. I refuse to accept progress and what it passes for these days, in any way shape or form. In my opinion we are going no where in this country much too fast for the sake of greed and we are taking no hostages. I absolutely refuse to be greedy nor will go after any money. Believe it or not money doesn't mean that much to me..I want to be free and feel safe where I am. I will not take any chances and move forward into this dog eat dog world Why should I go forward into this complicated mess we call a country? I refuse and will do everything I can, not to pay high prices for anything. I do not watch advertising or commercials on TV. I won’t buy anything because the other person has it or because it’s the thing to do. If I want something I will do research to look for the right store and if the price is to high I will wait for a sale. I will not rush anywhere and I am never late for doing anything. I am courteous and kind. I respect the old and young alike. I smile and talk to anyone. I’m stuck in the 50s and I love it. I will not move...

This EM was sent to me from a friend from England…
At the cash register of the store, the young cashier suggested to the older woman that she should bring her own shopping bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment.
The woman apologized and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days."
The cashier responded, "That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations. You didn't have the green thing."
She was right, our generation didn't have the green thing in its day.
Back then, we returned milk bottles, soft drink bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycling. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.
But we didn't have the green thing back in our day.
We walked up stairs, because we didn't have an escalator in every shop and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks.
But she was right. We didn't have the green thing in our day.
Back then, we washed the baby's nappies because we didn't have the throw-away kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy gobbling machine burning up 220 volts -- wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing.
But that young lady is right. We didn't have the green thing back in our day.
Back then, we had one TV, or radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief, not a screen the size of the Melbourne Cricket Ground. In the kitchen, we blended and stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the post, we used wrapped up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn petrol just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.
But she's right. We didn't have the green thing back then.
We drank water from a tap when we were thirsty instead of demanding a plastic bottle flown in from another country. We accepted that a lot of food was seasonal and didn't expect that to be trucked in or flown thousands of air miles. We actually cooked food that didn't come out of a packet, tin or plastic wrap and we could even wash our own vegetables and chop our own salad.
But we didn't have the green thing back then.
Back then, city people took the tram or a bus, and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their mothers into a 24-hour taxi service. We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 2,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest pizza joint.
But isn't it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn't have the green thing back then?
Please forward this on to another selfish old person who needs a lesson in conservation from a smart-ass young person.
Remember:
Don't make old people mad. We don't like being old in the first place, so it doesn't take much to piss us off.
Its been almost 3 years and I still don't watch TV…..I guess there is a science to giving up something… Something addicting that is?… Until they banned cigarette commercials. They programmed you to smoke and it turned out to be addicting and millions of smokers died of lung cancer and related diseases. How long will it be before they ban beer commercials. Did you notice there are no Liquor commercials? What about beer, it does the same thing?…Drink too much and they say, “You are having fun“. They want you to believe you are having fun and you think you are. Ask yourself If its so much fun how come you suffer the next day if you drink too much? Now the Bastards want to sell beer on Sundays here in Connecticut. That way they can get you to do more crazy things for the 11 o’clock news and guess what? Spend more money…Well, as for me, I feel better each day by not watching television and those insane commercials. I think if I write about it gets easier. Anyway, in a sense I have not been watching for a long time. I was turning it on but muting the commercials but now, even when you mute everything there are hidden commercials. You can’t do that anymore. I have to shut it off. These days watching television is not good for your mental health and behavior…I know they have been using it to reach into your mind. Not only watching every move you make in the stores but using the plastic bar code cards to keep tract of what you buy…Now you feel compelled to spend money you don’t have by way of the television…All you Moms that plant your kids in front of the TV to give them something to do…The Bastards are programming your kids to do, God only knows what? In a sense you are allowing strangers to mess with your kids mind. Here is a test to see if they are being brainwashed…Shut it off and tell them to go out and play…I don’t have to tell you what the result will be. Do I? Try it yourself. Don’t watch TV, go to the park. Take a bike ride. Put on some commercial free music on the stereo. If you can’t do this for even a day you have been programmed..
David Letterman's Top 10 Reasons to Vote Democrat
1. I voted Democrat because I love the fact that I can now marry whatever I want.
I've decided to marry my German Shepherd.
2. I voted Democrat because I believe oil company’s' profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene, but the government taxing the same gallon of gas at 15% isn't.
3. I voted Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would.
4. I voted Democrat because Freedom of Speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.
5. I voted Democrat because I'm way too irresponsible to own a gun, and I know that my local police are all I need to protect me from murderers and thieves.
I am also thankful that we have a 911 service that get police to your home in order to identify and tag your body after a home invasion.
6. I voted Democrat because I'm not concerned about millions of babies being aborted so long as we keep all death row inmates alive and comfy.
7. I voted Democrat because I think illegal aliens have a right to free health care, education, and Social Security benefits, and we should take away the Social Security from those who paid into it for many years.
8. I voted Democrat because I believe that businesses should NOT be allowed to make profits for themselves.
They need to break even and give the rest away to the government for redistribution as the Democrats see fit.
9. I voted Democrat because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite the Constitution every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would never get their agendas past the voters.
10. I voted Democrat because I think that it's better to pay billions for the oil from people who hate us, but not drill our own because it might upset some endangered beetle, gopher or fish.
And I'm going out to buy an used Nintendo 3DSXL for my self for Christmas because I have been good too. Well almost good and I am a nice person just like you..
Merry Christmas hotclaws Sincerely

Publicity Whores
Great movie! Our so-called leaders in Washington tell the Obama clones that everything is all right. Keep spending don't worry. Check the old factory's and a part of the country that they don't care about.... The way I believe it really is. I don't agree all the time with Hollywood and the bad example they set for America's youth but with this I agree. (Kids learn by example and believe what happens in the movies.)...Great cast....Don't miss this one....
" Line from the movie "Out of the furnace".
Church ain't over till all the snakes are back in the bag.
Life has a experation date...
My advice is to invest in a flack jacket and wear it if you go into the cities at night. Be careful of the food you eat it might have a disease and don't trust anybody because they might be a con-man or woman. The morals of our kids is non-existent because of the movies and TV and the internet perverts will be on the prowl this winter..Wow, that's something to look forward to...There are too many people not minding thier own business. Every one has a solution but no one fixes anything..
The phrase "The pot calling the kettle black" is an idiom used to claim that a person is guilty of the very thing of which they accuse another.
I have been saying this for a very long time. Someone is watching from the time you leave your house to when you get home...Someone knows what you watched on TV last night and where you go on the internet. They know how much money you have in the bank. They know what you buy in the store and what food you eat..You can't do anything anymore without someone making a statistic out of it..They really don't care about you...Its all about the numbers. They can take a picture from a satellite of the license plate on your car when you are going 100 mph on the highway. I checked Google earth a while ago and seen a still of me getting out of my car when I parked in the parking lot..They are watching from everywhere. Check Google earth to see if your house or apartment and car is in driveway or where you work...Its scary...And I didn't even mention the cell phone with the GPS you carry all the time...Its worst than having an electronic implant or bar code tattoo...That is next and they will convince you that its the thing to do..and what's worse is people will want it..??This ain't science fiction baby this is the real thing...
Kids, when you carry your expensive Cell phone, do you know it is tracking and watching you? Its like your shopping card that you give the cashier for that discount. They always ask for that card to keep track of you. Your phone becomes part of you and knows your habits, what you spend and where you are all the time. If you think your government isn’t watching, think again. All these things are just another way to take your dignity and money. It reduces you to a puppet or a predictable statistic. You pay between $600 and $1200 a year for that cell phone to let them do this to you…..
"Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path. Those who do not recover are people who cannot or will not completely give themselves to this simple program . . . ."
He didn't mention that in Washington D.C. Oct 4,2013 - I notice more and more every day that they are coming up with a lot of excuses about the black woman that crashed her car into the White House gate. They are saying she was ill or despondent but nothing is being said about her being unarmed. Are they overlooking this on purpose hoping it will go away? I notice they are talking about past shootings. Making more excuses. I hope you realize that what they are doing is setting a precedent. She was despondent like the thousands of others here, in what is left of this country. Think about it! This woman being black was probably elated when Obama was elected President. Imagine her disappointment and rage now and what she was going through. She was a unarmed black woman in a car with a baby and they shot her to death. They, in effect murdered her...Where is Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpton? Why aren't they speaking now? Are their heads in the sand? And what is really special here is, her black President is not saying a word...Believe me here...If nothing is being done about her being killed the way she was, its open season on you. It gives them permission to kill you and make up a story later on. For example, if you don't stop when they tell you because just maybe you didn't see or didn't hear them, believe me some of these gunslingers will shoot and kill you. I think you get the point. The police officers or the Washington GSA security guards that shot and killed this woman should be made and example of. They should be arrested and fired. They should have their carry permits and guns taken away.
Yes, we are at war here in America but she was not the enemy. In the past their motto was "Protect and serve". Now all the trust is gone! I do notice the change in their attitude when I talk to them. There is an underlying resentment, a dislike for someone they should be respecting. Its all over their faces and behavior. Exactly like the thugs from the Old Saybrook Connecticut police department who stopped me that fine day. The police of yesteryear are gone. They have been replaced with bullet proof vested, disrespectful thugs.
By allowing them to get away with murdering this woman you have given them permission to kill your Grandson because he didn't hear them say stop.
Its now 12/3/2013 - I notice more and more unarmed kids and people are being shot and killed and nothing is being said or done about it....
They watch because they don't trust you...The behaviors and Words they rarely teach anymore.
Conscience, Consequences, Morals, Sin, Honesty, Responsibility, Values, Trust, Loyalty, Courtesy, Kindness, Thrift and Reverence.
Even our President is not trusted by his own party. I only see a future of sadness and fear. We, the people of America must realize we cannot save the world! We cannot solve the world problems! We cannot pay for the world debt! Someone has to make some hard decisions. There is more to life than to spend, spend, spend. Its virtually impossible to pay the debt we have now and there are some really insane things going on out there and its costing this country a fortune. I understand change but what is happening is happening too fast and its out of control. I am disappointed at the direction and the progress this country is making and I fear for my Niece's, Nephews and Grandchildren and all the young people that have and will have nothing in the future except overcrowding and an expensive greedy environment. They will never know peace and what it was like only a few years ago when I was a young man. What we have today is a drug and alcohol riddled society and promiscuous behavior with no values or morals. It seems like anything goes and if the greedy can take advantage of you they will with no conscience or consequences. They would hurt you financially, mentality, physically and morally just to take your money and they won’t feel a thing. Its like you are left by the side of the road to die. Only with them, its on to the next victim. With you its suffering, payments and credit card bills and if you are very lucky maybe you will have a real job to pay for all that. Success today means to join the madness. Yes, maybe for a short time you will be content but you will never be really happy because its only instant gratification. Anyone with a conscience will feel guilt and remorse later in life. I guarantee there will never be peace in your soul…

Mac you are so right, they are real. In this new society with the Illinois Politician at the helm you have to be careful what you say about that segment of society. In other words the minority. Having said that, the majority of people if you can call them that, in prison are black..Be careful not to say that too loud the labels are flying all over the place. Don't fret, it will never change. The more complaints that are made will keep it alive and well. Thank you for sharing, I couldn't have said it better....
I have been thinking about this and will put it in "Freaks and losers" catorgory. In Long Island N.Y a man was trampled to death in a stampede to get into a store on Black Friday. Apparently the man worked there and was in the way when some 2000 people rushed into the store. Comment from one of the creepy crawlers who stepped on the mans face while trying to get to the candy department to save .12 cents was….“That mo-frucker got in the way man“….…That was the event that got me the sickest so far this holiday season. I am sure the non-humans and bottom-feeders will prove me wrong before the end of the month. There were more stupid things these past weeks but I am going to give a special Dirty-diaper award to the 2000 sickos that did that dirty deed. They may have saved a few pennies but and I have said this before, “There is a special place in Hell for those 2000 losers“.
Don't hold me to this but that is a reckless driving fine for Mr. Cote. That is why they locked him up... That is expensive plus his insurance will raised to all time highs. All well and good but they (cops) should be on Rt. 95 where the normal speed is 90 to 100 mph. Big bucks there... There would be no room in the lock-up.. Lots of reckless driving there...

Don't worry with all those growth hormones they are growing them as fast as you can kill them.
The peace and serenity of these Holidays is gone. Now its all about Greed. The fools that stand in those lines are the new America. They can only be described as Clones that have no idea what life is all about. No idea what what it was like. Its sad and pathetic. I whole heartily agree with you... I couldn't have said it better...

Remember a long time ago when we seen something bad happen to someone we would say, Hey, be careful it could happen to you. Well, the way things are going these days we say, its going to happen to you sooner or later even if you are careful. I say, try not to become collateral damage. I realize that human behavior has been questionable for thousand years and people have been wondering why people do what they do since the beginning of time. Things have escalated in the past few years here in America and its my opinion that most of what is going on in this country these days is because of suppressed anger, fear and rage. None of us is bullet proof to the craziness and insanity going on in the world today...We have come to the point here in the United States depending where you live that its too dangerous to venture outside. I realize it has always been somewhat like this, more or less but it seems like its much worse now. Ask yourself a few questions. Do you really know who your neighbors are? Do you trust them? Are you sure? Would you let them baby sit your 13 year old daughter or give them the key to your house to watch while you go on vacation? I'll bet you are thinking about that? Has your home ever been invaded or broken into. Watch out there country dwellers you are on the list now. You can spend a small fortune for that security system but you are not untouchable anymore. I have never heard of that happening till a few years ago. Even you out there in the country in your 5 Million dollar home. You are not safe. Try and buy a hand gun to protect yourself. They are even taking that away from you too. Remember when you could leave in the morning and not lock your door? I do....
Has there ever been a suicide in your family? No, but I'll bet you know someone who has? Has divorce hit your family? Your kids or nieces and nephews? Do you smoke cigarettes? Could you stop if you wanted to?... Right, try it.. How about Alcoholism or Drug Addiction? Do you really know what your son or daughter would do to get the drink or drug he or she needs when craving it? Do you have an Alcoholic or Drug addict in your family? Did you know that alcoholism is an inherited disease?... Maybe it would it would be a good idea to read about addiction and learn. Have you been touched by those diseases yet...Notice I said yet...Have you felt the misery of a death by car accident on the highways these days or by the horrendous weather we are having? Has a family member or even a friend ever been raped or murdered? How about losing your job or your home? Have you ever had your car repossessed? Have you ever been watched so much you are starting to get paranoid? Your cell phone is really a hand held computer that will tell everyone everything. Are you or your kids addicted to your phone. Do you go back and get it if you forget it at home? Could you go a day without it? I did...Try that. Those cards the Supermarket uses. The ones you scan to buy something. Right, even they know what you are doing all the time. Ever wonder why you need a plastic card to buy almost anything? Even the banks know if and when you pay your bills.
How about your kids. Have they left the family nest to go out in the world only to come back to live with you again? Are they saving for their future and retirement? Hell, are you saving for your future and retirement? The way things are going now you won't be able to retire until you are 70. That's only if Social Security has any money left. Will you be healthy enough to work until you are 70?..... 27% of Americans have no savings for that rainy day....All those wonderful politicians you voted for that are spending millions to get elected or reelected are robbing you blind. Ask them about their retirement and health care. Don't believe me? Just wait, you will see!
Remember when you knew the cop on the beat by his first name? The police today are more Military than anything else. They all look alike with their shaved heads, bullet proof vests and combat fatigues. They carry automatic weapons like in a the army. Police departments of today now have hazmat teams and bomb squads. You haven't lived until you have been evacuated from a building because of a bomb threat or a mysterious white powder scare. Kids are being shot in schools everyday somewhere in this country. And no its not just the ghettos. It can happen to you...(((Oh, can I still say ghettos?))) Think about that? Have your children been in a locked down school because of a white powder, gun or bomb scare? Its happening more and more. You are being scrutinized, searched, listened too and watched everywhere you go. From the highways and stores to Facebook and Google. Yes, you are...and there isn't a Blessed thing you or I can do about it.
You and your kids are being programed by "Nintendo" games or while you are watching those horrible reality shows on TV, which are not real by the way. What about the the TV and movie violence? It is the worst I have ever seen. Because of the movies and TV, promiscuity is normal and modesty is nonexistent? There is nothing left to the imagination. Remember, young minds without supervision are the future copycats and you know what means. They actually need someone to tell them difference between right and wrong...As the years, months and days go by in this computer world the odds of something I just described happening to you is rapidly increasing. So if you think you were careful before, brother you haven't seen anything yet....All because of money...The Bastards out there will do anything to steal or sell you something. Nothing else matters....They don't care about anything else....
A man goes into the hospital for a vasectomy. Before the procedure, a very attractive nurse comes in and takes his vitals, then tells him to take all of his clothes off.
When he is fully undressed she instructs him to lie down on the table. The man obeys. The nurse then takes all of her clothes off and climbs
on top and has her way with him.
Upon the completion of the act the man catches his breath and asks
what that was all about. The nurse informs the patient that studies
have shown that before a vasectomy, if the man has an ejaculation, he
will be more relaxed and that the cord is easier for the surgeon to
locate and sever, thereby making the surgery safer, more efficient and
quicker.
The nurse then wheels the patient to the operating room.
While they are going down the hall the patient looks through a window
to the right and sees six men in a room masturbating.
Curious, the man asks, "What are they doing in there"?
The nurse responds, "They're preparing for vasectomies too, but you
have Blue Cross, and they have Obama Care."
My God please if only for the sake accuricy...What are you doing trying to spice up the show? Its typycle though. In a whole family of dark haired people.. Not a brunette but a bleached blond and a black guy. Kissing in a closet. Kissing in row boat.. First, let me scream here. >>>>> THIS WOULD NEVER HAPPEN!!!<<<<< If he got caught doing that between the years 1912-1921 they would have hanged him from the nearest tree. If he even looked at that girl they would have stoned him to death and then labeled her a whore... ((((You cannot change History.)))) Make it real! I realize its a fictional story but don't suggest this could ever happen. In 1950 there were colored and white bathrooms in Sears. Don't suggest to the younger generation that this was OK and something like this could have been be true because IT COULD NOT!!.....In another TV series they made Fary tale Sir Lanslot a black guy.. Please stop...As much as you try you can't change History! Let it be.. The writers are ether stupid and very young and they are spoiling the show..
, I sense a lot of animosity up there in "ol" Windsor Locks...Makes me glad I moved.. And I'm willing to bet that the smelly "historic" railroad still stands there proudly rotting away....

SAD NEWS.......
Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community. The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71.
Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch. The grave site was piled high with flours.
Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flakey at times, he still was a crusty old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions.
Doughboy is survived b y his wife Play Dough, three children: John Dough, Jane Dough and Dosey Dough, plus they had one in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart.
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
Thought to Ponder . . .
The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.
The move went well, nothing broken. All safe and sound….What a relief. I admit to being exhausted. The key was to take my time and go slow.. Well, its been a few days and I’m finally feeling almost settled in.
SUBJECT: BEST JOKE OF 2013

I just finished reading my friends page here on LJ because I was feeling that maybe, after reading my own posts, that I was too angry and, well not too angry just writing about it too much…Well, I’m not. The feelings on the posts on my friends page are not as, lets say aggressive as mine but in between the lines depending on the age of the writer, there is a fear and the knowledge that is the same as mine. I have writer friends from all over the world and a little of what is happening here in the US is overflowing everywhere. Some places maybe a little worse. Its like its out of control a little everywhere. Someone said to me a while ago, “There is something in the wind” She was right…

Remember when Dick Chaney needed a heart and I wrote...... Any volunteers out there? Cash money on the barrel head……Wait, wait lets go back a little. …Does the theory, “What goes around comes around”, really work? Is it true? OJ Simpson hired three Lawyers and got off from a double murder charge. Only later he did end up in prison on a unrelated charge…It came around for him. Actor Robert Blake hired a big Hollywood Lawyer and got off a murder charge. Has it come around for him? He disappeared, we really don’t know. I do know he doesn’t have a career anymore. The same lawyer that got him off, got Michael Jackson off from a child molestation charge. Then Michael hired a Drug dealer Doctor to give him drugs. How's that working out for you Michael? If the super rich want something they just buy it or hire someone to do their bidding. Other recipients or will soon be winners of the “Goes around award” are….Lindsey Lohan. If this young actress doesn’t stop using drugs and drinking it will come around for her..Remember Heath Ledger, well it came around for him as it will for Charlie Sheen if he doesn’t make a decision to stop abusing himself. I realize this has nothing to do Mr.Chaney but let me finish. Can you figure out yet where I’m going with this?…Remember Congressman Gary Condit from California? He was the one having sex with that young intern until she got murdered. Years later someone else got arrested the crime but for a long time everyone thought he did it…It came around for him…He lost his job and I’ll bet people still think he did it. Remember Anna Nichol Smith, Judy Garland, Janis Joplin, Elvis Presley, Chris Farley, Andy Gibb, James Belushi and so many more lost their lives due to the use and abuse of drugs and alcohol…I’m getting off track here but lets just say it did come around for this group of people, all famous, rich and thought they could buy anything….Now back to Dick…Well, this guy has a pile and I mean a huge pile of money from the oil company's and it would probably take you and I and all our relatives 40 years to spend. Now, he is sitting on this fortune, that he can’t take with him by the way. Oh and by gosh, what to do…Dick needs a heart..He’s 72 years old and wants to be on the heart list..How far down on that list is he, you ask? Actually quite far. 3169 people long. They say the list is for the near death or people with less than 6 months to live. Here's the question here? Will his Billions of dollars get him higher on the list or can he buy a heart? Sadly, Mr. Chaney has had this condition for about 30 years. I think it has to do with the severity of his illness and his projected life span. Is it coming around for the ex-vice President?…We will see. If he suddenly has a new heart, did his cash buy it? Hey, a big donation here and there. Remember he’s a Politian with connections and power. Its not like he hasn't paid for this and that before. Will he use his influence to get a heart? Of coarse, it could be that maybe its time for things to come around to him. Remember, “Goes around comes around”.. Good Luck Mr. Chaney. I wish you well. We now know money can buy Doctors, Lawyers and drugs. We will soon see if money can buy hearts and happiness…
I first met Peggy 36 years ago when she signed a book I was given. Through those years I have looked at that inscription and thought of her. What she wrote has given me the streingth to continue. God bless the Shaughnessy family. My thoughts and prayers are with you...
This is a good movie... Its easy to do what these two morons did. Young folks must realize what the consequences are and not hurt anyone.... Facebook is notorious for this.. Be very careful out there guys...
NOTE! to the servers out there.. Putlocker etc. Shut off my adblocker? Are you out of your mind??? Who is the dumb F--k that comes up with this stuff. You don't have to shut off anything.. Just go around these idiots.. Don't shut off anything and subject yourself these brain numbing ads... They are only programing you to buy crap... Don't do it...

Are kids really like this? Drugs, smoking cigarettes and then more drugs. Based on real events, OK but should Hollywood be encouraging this kind of drug use? Kids will see this kind of crap movie. Its kinda geared to the young.. I see business for the drug dealers and an early death of a painful Cancer for young people who smoke or use drugs like this.....Sorry I had to say it...
This is the definition of economy. Focus on the first 3 words. There is nothing about greed, stealing or hurting other people in those words.
"Careful, thrifty management of resources, such as money, materials, or labor" Its out of control now and I hope you realize that if this country doesn't implode your kids will have to pay for all this insanity. The smart ones are scared. Remember that fear. you will need it later.
In Notasulga, a small Alabama town. “Sammy” the cat was evicted from the local Post Office because a citizen of the town complained. This disgruntled, angry, negative person, whose name has been turned in to PETA said that Sammy didn’t pay taxes and there for did not deserve free room and board in the Post Office, a Federal Building. The Post Master having no choice in the matter put Sammy into the street. In the past Sammy spent most his time lounging and sleeping as cats like to do in the front window in the sun......Wait a minute! Last week CNN reported that a Congressman sleeps on the floor in the Hall of Congress to save money by not renting a Hotel room. Wait, that’s a double standard… Why can’t a cat sleep in a Post Office. I would call Sammy an employee since he does help lower the mice population. Well, a few decent, kind, people got together and rented Sammy a post office box making it legitimate for him to be there… “Sammy” was unavailable for comment but a spokescat named “Willie” commented that, “He was happy for his brother cat and wished him luck in the future”.
Gonna be a quiet day for me I can tell. I don't say party because if you really think about it. Who wants celebrate getting older. Its like being happy you are closer to death...I know, I know and I only kidding. The thing is we create these events to sell stuff. Man made holidays. A birthday is great until about 23 years old then I say let it disappear into the wood work. Today I have the day after blues or what I call the "Glad its over tremors" and now its time to move on. Move on to what? The U.S. economy is going down the drain. There are too many commericals on TV and the cost of living is too much for people with kids. This morning I heard something about about bad news and credit cards and gas shortages down south...I am tired of it all...Its all about the money...I think its unfixable....The bottom line is and "Its always about the bottom line" is that there are too many border line thieves or people who break the laws with unconvictable crimes...Hey who cares? There is no room in the prisons anyway...Watch out folks Its "Every man or woman for him or her self."..Can you say that 3 times fast?? Hang on folks its going to rough ride...............
Well its happening again.. I'm moving. Finally out of this what I call (apartment building) to a ground level complex on the first floor.. I'm fourth on the list so it shouldn’t take long…Willie is a officially a companion cat.
Update…..Its been 6 months and yes I’m still a vegetarian and the good news is I’ve lost 6 pounds.. Believe it or not, I have abs.. I’ve got a ways to go but I look good and feel great… My pants are falling down and I have to keep pulling them up.. That’s a good thing and I love it..
Now with one eye surgery to go I can even see stuff… The first operation was an experience I’ll certainly never forget but I learned a lot.. I am not looking forward (no pun intended) to the next operation on the 14th of May but I will gather my lack of courage and ego put them aside and have it done. Cathy is my strength and inspiration..
Cathy and I are (as they used to say in the 50s, and 60s) are going “hot and heavy. Well, not much heavy but really hot. She is one beautiful lady. In our travels we have found some wonderful restaurants in Westerly R.I. and I can’t wait to move to that area.. The beaches at Watch Hill and up the coast towards Misquamicut are incredible. Those of you who a familiar with that area will know what I mean.
I realize the dreaded tourist season is starting but with the high cost of everything, gas included, at least the rift raft will stay in their city’s and the season doesn’t last that long anyway. .. Well its off to do some shopping with the love of my life…
Well that’s it for now… Stay tuned for more of my adventures in the future and as Red Skelton used to say “God Bless”. I know I have been…
I don't know if this is true or by the time the story got to me it changed… A friend of mine has a friend who lives in Boston who has a daughter that ran in the Boston Marathon. She was in the vicinity of the finish line and heard one or both of the explosions… No, she was not hurt but was terrified and went home right away to be consoled by her parents and to see what really happened…
Note…. As you know, the Police and Swat teams (Military, they all look alike now,) literally Locked down and closed the city of Boston.. They stopped everyone from coming in or leaving the city. No one and I mean no one could leave their house or where they were living at the time.. Think about all that power and what would happen if they wanted to do something to you. Under the threat of a gun they kept you in your house as a prisoner.. All transportation was shut down. You could not drive your car.. If you were caught in the street they would question you and I don’t know what else.. You were guilty until they proved you weren’t!
Back to the girl who was terrified by the explosions. Upon arriving home she did what any teenager would do.. She tried to text her friends and share what happened to her. When she tried she found out the she couldn’t text anybody or call anybody on her cell phone. Did the government shut down cell phone service? Did they shut down the internet in Boston? Can they do this? What the terrorists did in Boston was scary but, if true it gave them (Government) a chance to test their will on the honest people… What will happen next? (Gun control) Stay tuned for chapter two.. I mean now its sounding a movie on the Si-Fi channel.. I will go out on a limb here and say the terrorists are rolling around on their cave floors laughing. Believe it or not they are in control of us.
I went to work as an airport electrician at Bradley International Airport on the morning of Oct.3,1979. It was just a normal day like all days. The birds were singing and a fall chill was in the air. I drove my newly purchased used $500 1971 Ford pickup truck to the airport and parked it along side my friends new Ford van and went to get my work truck out of building #228. In those days all the airport buildings had numbers. They were old military buildings left over from World war II that were given to the State of Connecticut and each had a designation or a number. I parked the work truck in that building at night when we were done work…As I was unlocking the door the third vehicle arrived. It was one of the airport painters just getting to work. I backed the truck out of the building and got out and locked the door. Said good morning to the painter who was suffering from his usual hangover and I left. I drove by the new fire house and onto the eastside taxiway to cross the approach of runway 33. I picked up the microphone and called the Bradley control tower. “Bradley ground this is this is State 5 on the east side, at the approach of runway 33”. The tower replied, “State 5 Bradley ground“. I replied, “holding short of runway 33, clearance to cross“. Hold short State 5 landing traffic to your left…I waited and watched as a Mohawk Airlines BAC 111 passed and landed, tires chirping and smoking as they hit the runway. As the plane passed by, the tower said, “State 5 clear to cross runway 33“…I replied, “5 roger, clear to cross“ and I headed to the Electrical shop on the ground floor of the terminal building…Little did anyone know this would be one of the worst days in the history of Bradley International Airport.
I was in that Electrical shop that afternoon. I think it was around 2PM, when the sky turned a dark gray. It had an odd pinkish red tint and the wind was from the east, it was unusually strong. The airport Windsock was straight out. That was not a good sign. Someone in the shop was yelling something and air pressure in that large room dropped to the point where the air was being vacuumed out at the ramp level doors. The doors slammed to the open position as papers and small tools were being sucked out to the aircraft ramp. Without thinking I ran to the open doors, I could feel the wind and pressure at my back as I grasped both handles and struggled to close them. I managed to get both doors closed enough to slam the bolt closed and lock them. As I did this I watched through the door windows as the roof of the cantilever hanger started to swirl off in a counter clock wise flight into the air…I glanced to my left and watched as an American Airlines Boeing 707 tried to land on runway 24, only to touch down, tires smoking and then throttle forward and nose up with a deafening roar to take off again while making an immediate right turn away, wings bent from the strain of the turn heading away from the storm as fast as the airliner would Go. It was then I heard the wind roaring and the train sound that everyone talks about. After that I don’t remember much except my assignment was to keep the airport emergency generators running as long as I could. I told my supervisor later that night that if I didn’t shut them off one of them was going to burn out because of the amps it was putting out and load it was carrying. If I remember correctly he said “ Keep them running I don’t care if they burn up” He did some swearing but I won’t say what he said…I did manage to keep them running and one generator did burn out as I predicted it would in the early morning hours, coming to a grinding halt.…I shut off the other generator and the airport runways and terminal went dark.
Earlier in the evening I did manage to call home and was relieved to find out that our house was in tact and everyone was safe. In the weeks to come everything is a blur but I remember the destruction and devastation were like nothing I have ever seen. I describe it as like the airport was bombed during a war. There were pieces of aircraft everywhere. The smell of aviation fuel was unbearable. I was astonished at the nails and debris that was everywhere and pieces of homes and buildings that were in what was left of the twisted Oak and Maple trees. I don’t recall when I went to check on my truck but when I got there it was intact but that new van that I parked next to was totally destroyed. The chimney from the building fell on the rear of the van and crushed it. My truck had a broken windshield and two flat tires. The painters car was dented and sandblasted like my truck but otherwise was OK. These pictures. Taken with what I believe is a 35 MM camera. One of the Cantilever hanger with the roof gone and the tail of a B-52 bomber sticking out of the back and my truck, I have never seen before till the other day. I was happily surprised and if you look closely there is my truck parked over by that pile of sand. It’s the one in the middle. That pile of wood and junk is what is left of building 228.…There were times when I parked my truck in the building. I glad I didn’t do it that day…I have never been in a situation like that since and I never want to be…
Just a word about reality shows. Well, Its more of a question? If a camera crew was following you around would you do the things that you would normally do?… Of coarse not…That means its make-believe…. Its all an ACT……FAKE…….NOT REAL…….These people are chosen because of the way they ACT and LOOK. But its more about the way they look not about the way they act….ITS NOT REAL……The public is convinced that the FAKE ACTORS are doing things they normally would….THEY ARE NOT…… because its fake…..The most over used word they use today is Star….Actors that win awards for acting are stars….All the rest, are just people that do stupid things on TV for money……

"Breaking the Silence"
Have you noticed that I've been very quiet lately? I guess you could say I have been gathering my thoughts while trying to find the new me and now I think that I have. The silence started with having a new girlfriend and sort of thinking why me, why now? Today its hard to describe the contentedness I feel. Did you ever wonder if there is a perfect match? A perfect person? Someone that fits you to a tee? Someone that you have been waiting for, for a long time. It all started about 2 months ago and now I have become a we. Its like I have been searching all my life for this beautiful woman. I found her at long last and its like we have been cast from the some mold. If I was with this woman twenty years ago we would be together today. If you don't know me, you could describe me, to put it mildly as the guy that is always looking for right companion. I have finally found, first a friend and confidant now a lover and companion. When we met we knew or at least I did that I didn't have to look anymore. The old clichè, "I never knew that I could feel this way again" is time worn but its true... When I found her I found a new life and a new reason to live. My life is totally changed. I'm a new person, I'm finally happy.
I know of people, family and so called friends who run and hide their heads in the sand because they fear getting old. They ignore their parents and relatives so they don’t have to take care of them. They give the obligatory Christmas plant because it puts a band-aid on the guilt and they don’t feel so bad themselves. I don’t know what it is? They have this emptiness, this void. They live in an imaginary world. Was is the way they were brought up that they lack compassion and kindness or is it the world we live in? The world of imaginary perfection. Its such a shame they are the way they are because it may feel ok to stay away now, its later that they will pay the price. Nothing is for nothing. There is always a consequence to questionable behavior. If you are just selfish or even angry and seek revenge, that little feeling of guilt might feel small and pass at the moment but it gets bigger as you get older and someday in the not to distant future when you look in the mirror the past and that little feeling of guilt catches up to you and turns into a huge pang of fear. You might think that you have buried your conscience but it will surface when you least expect it. Even if you think you don’t have one. When you go to visit your parents or grand parents in the convalescent home or assisted living center visit the seniors that are there. Do it because you want to not because you have to. Help them to smile. Keep in mind the sayings “Time fly’s” and remember, “What goes around comes around“.
Just A few thoughts today……..
Today I’m going up north to a party at a my cousins house. My dads brothers kids. I received a great invitation in the mail. It’s called a get-together. I can’t wait to see all people from the other side of the family tree.
Is it just me or are all the Olympic woman younger and better looking than in years past?
Is it my imagination or is the United States NOT the best at everything? I am seeing those kids lift a lot of those bronze metals in air…That’s third. "Not that there is anything wrong with that"…
I often wonder what the Olympians do for a living when they are done competing? Will the they work for those companies with those funny looking logos? Somehow I don’t think it will be in fast food unless it’s a life like picture in the door way…..Can you call that work?
I liked my ex-girl friend a lot. It was just those character defects I couldn’t deal with and I’m done fixing my girlfriends. If you don’t know what its all about by now its not my problem.
My mother use to say, “Make sure you have clean sox and underwear on…If something happens to you and you have to go to the hospital you don’t want them to think your dirty“…. Or words to that effect…I was usually blanking her out by the time she got to the word underwear….
I went out with friends last night and someone mentioned they quit smoking…..I didn’t know people still did that….I was wondering what that pukey smell was in doorways. It seems they were having a hard time breathing and climbing stairs at the same time. ….Then they said it cost about 8 dollars a pack. OMG, I didn’t know that?….Don’t they come in cartons of 10...?
Talking about smoking I remember my dad saying, “It’s a dirty habit“….Although I think the word he used was filthy. He then went on to explain about the chemicals they spray on the leaves to kill the tobacco worms….He used to explain how they did stuff. I’m so grateful for that…
"We live in country where blatant greed is encouraged. Then people wonder why the world is the way it is".…...L.J. Ferrari
In the past few years I have unintentionally predicted things. Its usually tongue in cheek and at times things have actually happened. I don't really know how I do this. I didn't really predict anything. I am not Nostradamus although I am guilty of being a, "I told you so guy". I would call what I have done like if you do certain things, things are going to happen. It comes from knowledge of the things I have experienced in the past. So lets just say my experience and the way things are these days and with the direction our country is going with all the corruption and greed its inevitable. Sometimes I wonder if people realize there will always be consequences to whatever they say and do. Your wonderful President and politicians never seen to think of that..
We will start with immigration reform and the states adopting new driver license rules. From what they say and I don't know who comes up with this stuff. These new laws will allow immigrants who are not citizens to obtain driver licenses if they can prove who they are. To me it means the crime rate will go up with more cars on the already over crowded highways and streets. Its because of the over population of people in certain areas. So because of this I also believe that in the near future laws will be passed making it mandatory to drive to work on odd and even number days. The traffic on the highways in some states is so bad in the morning and during the day that states will pass laws that mandate you can only drive on even days or odd days by the number on your license plate. It would work something like this. Remember the commuter parking lots and riding to work with your friends and neighbors. Soon it will be against the law to be alone in a car.. For some people going to work in the morning they will have you leaving and driving to work, for example at three, four, five or six am depending on where you live and how far away you work from your home.
Drones (picture above) are not only good for killing people they will be used to spy on you. Remember the signs on the highways. "Speed checked by aircraft"? In Connecticut we still have some of those. Some time in the near future, drones will be used to check on your activities every where you go. They can electronically check who you are by the bar code behind the windshield, on the left side in front of the driver. They can also see your license plate and photograph it. They, under certain circumstances can even hear what you are saying...They can also check your speed or to see if you are driving on an odd or even day. They will even be able issue speeding or wrong day driving tickets by mail or they can call the police to ticket you....The question is, how long will it be before thay can they communicate with the computer that runs your car and maybe shut it down? You did know your car has a computer, didn't you? Hmmm that's interesting isn't it? It was the same with buying gas in the past during the gas shortage. Remember that? Odd or even days. It worked in the past, with the drones it will work even better now.

A while ago, I moved to the shoreline community of Niantic Connecticut after living in Windsor Locks most of my life. I made this move for many reasons but mainly because of the negative attitudes in Windsor Locks. Don’t get me wrong, I realize things take time to change but no one there is doing anything but talking….There was nothing to keep me there. All I heard was excuses and nonsense. Years ago I grew up on Main street and Grove street, later moving to So. Center street where I lived most of my life. I actually watched them tear down Main Street and the Rialto Theater with the wrecking ball. Marie talks about the trucks with their engines running, using the parking lot at Dexter plaza as a truck stop. This is true. They also parked next to the old railroad station spewing their poisonous diesel fumes during the long winter nights. I know this because I lived across the street. However, the most important reason I moved was not only the trucks but to get away from the loud obnoxious horns and roaring trains that went through town. I remember the hissing steam engines and cattle cars. The flat bed cars carrying Army tanks and bombs as they parked at the old freight depot. They were not as loud. The dumpy railroad station is another matter. The Historical society, whatever historical society that is? Reminder, Main street is gone, there is no history! Nothing has been preserved except the Memorial Hall. They have been collecting money for years and nothing has been done…I suggest, take a picture of that smelly old place, put up a plaque with a few dates on it like they did to the railroad station in Simsbury and tear it down….Believe me no one cares. Tear down those firetrap factories that have been vacant for years across that rancid canal and be done with it. The smell from those places is horrible. Someone make a decision! It seems like a lot of people are talking about this stuff but no one except Marie cares enough to do anything about it………..…L.J Ferrari
I understand.. I don't go there much ether. Once a day maybe.. Its like when the kids come over, not that they ever do, its really nice when they leave. I'm slowly staying away from Google and all their horrible apps. They broke a phone I have by synching pictures I didn't want and could NOT delete. (Long Story) I sent it back to the server and they repaired it. Sent me a, like new phone.. I use Bing search engine now.. Still have phone (((( NO GOOGLE APPS)))) and if I do its my choice not theirs ... Battery lasts all day plus. Thinking of going back to Live Journal and started yesterday.. Only good stuff, no negative news.. I have a new Hotmail address. Just getting ready for the change.. Its a slow process.. It will happen in the future.. Keep in touch Claudette you know where I am and have my number, you are the best..
Its been ten days and still no TV…..I guess there is a science to giving up something…Something addicting that is?…Until they banned cigarette commercials. They programmed you to smoke and it turned out to be addicting and millions of smokers died of lung cancer and related diseases. How long will it be before they ban beer commercials. Did you notice there are no Liquor commercials? What about beer, it does the same thing?…Drink too much and they say, “You are having fun“. They want you to believe you are having fun and you think you are. Ask yourself If its so much fun how come you suffer the next day if you drink too much? Now the Bastards want to sell beer on Sundays here in Connecticut. That way they can get you to do more crazy things for the 11 o’clock news and guess what? Spend more money…Well, as for me, I feel better each day by not watching television and those insane commercials. I think if I write about it gets easier. Anyway, in a sense I have not been watching for a long time. I was turning it on but muting the commercials but now, even when you mute everything there are hidden commercials. You can’t do that anymore. I have to shut it off. These days watching television is not good for your mental health and behavior…I know they have been using it to reach into your mind. Not only watching every move you make in the stores but using the plastic bar code cards to keep tract of what you buy…Now you feel compelled to spend money you don’t have by way of the television…All you Moms that plant your kids in front of the TV to give them something to do…The Bastards are programming your kids to do, God only knows what? In a sense you are allowing strangers to mess with your kids mind. Here is a test to see if they are being brainwashed…Shut it off and tell them to go out and play…I don’t have to tell you what the result will be. Do I? Try it yourself. Don’t watch TV, go to the park. Take a bike ride. Put on some commercial free music on the stereo. If you can’t do this for even a day you have been programmed..
In the past few years I have prdicted things and they have actually happened. I don't like word prediction so I would call what I have done knowledge for things I have experienced in the past. So lets just say past experience and the way thing are going these days.
With imagration reform and adopting new driver licence rules. It will allow illigal and imagrant to obtain driver licences witch mweans crime will go up...
I believe that in the near future laws will be passed making it manditory to drive to work on odd and even days. The traffic in some States is so bad in the morning and during the day that States will pass laws that mandate you can only drive on even days or odd days by the number on your license plate. For people going to work they will have you leaving and driving at 5 AM or 6 AM depending on where you live and how far away you work. Drones will be used to check your activities every where you go. They can check who you are by the bar code behind the windshield,left side in front of the driver and they can also see your license plate and photograph it. They can even hear what you are saying...It will check your speed and see if you are driving on an odd or even day. They will even be able issue speeding or wrong day driving tickets by mail. It will be the same buying gas. Odd or even days. It worked in the past, it will work better now.
Yes, we voted for this President for change and I actually had tears in my eyes when he got elected. I thought things were going to get better. What we got was someone who changed America into a nation of discouraged, angry and resentful people. This is his legacy so far….We have two major nations talking Nuclear weapons. Instead of talking peace about Korea, we send an aircraft carrier over there to intimidate them. We have thousands of American troops and equipment scattered all over the world costing billions in dollars and American lives. Crime and drug use In America are at a all time high and no seems to care. Psychopath Terrorists are coming out of the woodwork here trying to blow up Christmas tree ceremonies and Times Square. Gasoline is over $3 dollars a gallon. Illegal aliens are running around all over the place. Welfare is out of control. Our brilliant American kids are graduating High School and College and are working in fast food or as cashiers in other low paying jobs. Sometimes I think it’s a big conspiracy to get young people to join the military.Think about that. We are practically stripped searched if we want to fly anywhere and we are spied on from places you can’t even imagine. Buy something on the internet and you take the chance of having your identity stolen. There is more corruption and debt than you have ever seen or will ever be able to pay back. He froze government employee wages but did he freeze the Senators and Congressmen's wages? These people should voluntarily give up their annual raises for 5 years and donate their salary to the poor. This bunch of thieves and manipulators could live on what the lobbyist's give them every year or the tax free money they get under the table. I was wondering, who pays for the bullet proof limo they ride around in? How about the private jet? If you think these bastards are going to be hand searched or x-rayed, think again. Who pays for their free lifetime medical insurance? And let me tell you its not the cheap kind. They don’t deserve what they get. Yes, I understand there are those that don’t believe they are corrupt. In Connecticut alone we have had a Governor not too long ago who went to prison. No one would believe hat either. The Mayor of our capital city was just convicted of corruption. The new Mayor of Hartford Connecticut is a gay lawyer! Not that there is anything wrong with that. Just another thing to think about. Did you know we have a Drug Czar? His name is Gil Kerlikowske. His annual salary is about $170,000. That’s $3270 dollars a week plus free full medical and a 3 week vacation. Does it look like this moron has done anything to stop the flow of drugs coming into this country. The rumor is he for legalizing medical marijuana. If true, we will have rehabs and halfway houses on every corner. How about the Military? He should cut their pay too. Shouldn’t he?….How about his pay check? He makes $400,000 a year. That’s $7692 dollars a week and he gets a free house and the plane of his choice, plus meals, body guards and every fringe benefit known to man. They are all government employees. They may not realize this but they work for you and me. If they can abuse the the public trust, they can afford a pay cut. This is not a free country anymore and it hasn't been for a long time. We are being held hostage here in America by security cameras, x-ray searches, pat downs, crime, greed and dishonesty. Do they even teach kids to be honest in the schools today? I pledge allegiance to the flag….Wait, can I still say that???… Oh well, In God we trust. Wait! don’t shoot, I only mentioned God…Please hold your fire…. OMG, 2 more freaking years of his rhetoric, nonsense and lies

This is the full version of the "deceptions" film (58 m). It was produced by an activist with NO film making experience for $750 and it was released in 2010. In spite of an amateur status "deceptions" was well reviewed and has developed rather a "cult" following.
Deceptions is a six part film that traces a string of deceptions from 9/11, through the Bush and now the Obama years, oil and banking power and fraud, media collusion and the existence of a controlling elite.
It ends with a plea for the people of America to become citizen journalists - to report what they see and to encourage full discovery, disclosure and debate on myriad of issues that intentionally remain hidden from public view.
I have been saying this for a very long time. Someone is watching from the time you leave your house to when you get home...Someone knows what you watched on TV last night and where you go on the internet. They know how much money you have in the bank. They know what you buy in the store and what food you eat..You can't do anything anymore without someone making a statistic out of it..They really don't care about you...Its all about the numbers. They can take a picture from a satellite of the license plate on your car when you are going 100 mph on the highway. I checked Google earth a while ago and seen a still of me getting out of my car when I parked in the parking lot..They are watching from everywhere. Check Google earth to see if your house or apartment and car is in driveway or where you work...Its scary...And I didn't even mention the cell phone with the GPS you carry all the time...Its worst than having an electronic implant or bar code tattoo...That is next and they will convince you that its the thing to do..and what's worse is people will want it..??This ain't science fiction baby this is the real thing...
As I sit here this morning in my insulated life writing about beaches and skunks, I couldn’t think about what to write about today. Lets just say I didn’t know where to begin, so I thought I would write about everything. First, I wonder why I am letting things that are happening in this country bother me so much. First and foremost is the oil leak. Next on the list are the amount of people in this country. That issue includes the illegal’s. Then why isn’t anyone talking about the corruption trial in Illinois? It should be on the top of the list of things to talk about. How about the wars and solders we have scattered around the world? The spy issue went by fast, almost like it didn’t happen. There are bombs going off in hotels and restaurants all around the world killing hundreds. The crime and death locally are meaningless now and the top story is about someone who is barefoot. The drunken and drug addict entertainers and celebrities are on that list. Reminder……. these people are only people who have a momentary light shining on them. They are the same as us. The difference between us and them is they have a few more dollars than you or me…I could write about morals but now that is a subject that is taboo, if fact that word is almost extinct. On this bare foot thing. I have never heard of that clown. What’s up with that? There are the thousands of commercials that are taking advantage of people that don’t know any better and web cams that spy on you and me. Keep in mind that everyone today has a phone with a camera on it. Then there is the issue of National debt, the thieves in Washington and the stock market. The economy and the suffering American citizens that are going to end up paying for all the insanity going on in this country. So as the welfare rolls get bigger and bigger, I think of how fortunate I am to have been born here and had parents that put up with me, stuck by my side and taught me by example how to deal with what is happening all around me…Its like I am on a Merry-go-round and I just don’t know where to begin.
Soon to come to city or town near you but don't worry, your local police/riot/swat teams, (did you ever wonder why all towns have them? You know now.) will take care of you so hang on ... The corrupt rich Lawyers changed all the rules and laws so if you riot in the streets you will be labeled a teriousts. They can shoot you now. Oh and by the way there is no death penilyt in Connecticut...
Oil is going up to $100 a barrel so you had better get get a job and some new charge cards or you could borrow some money from your parents or friends because your beloved Lawyer Governor from Stanford Conn. allowed the gas taxes to be raised. Gas Should be $ 5.00 plus a gallon soon... Vote for Barack Obama, Jessie Jackson Jr.s friend, the one and only honest Illinois politician....
Rep. Michele Bachmann’s claim that Huma Abedin an aid to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could be connected to the Muslim Brotherhood is “morally wrong” and undermines the war on terror, former FBI Director William Webster tells Newsmax.
Because several living or deceased family members of Huma Abedin, Clinton’s deputy chief of staff, have connections to the Muslim Brotherhood or its operatives, Bachmann and four other Republican House members asked the departments of Defense, Justice, and Homeland Security and the State Department to investigate whether the U.S. government is being infiltrated by Muslim extremists.
A Muslim, Abedin is married to former Rep. Anthony Weiner, who is Jewish and strongly pro-Israel. She is well-liked and admired by Republicans and Democrats alike in Washington.
Comment...I'm sure you all remember Ex-Rep. Anthony Weiner? The guy who was in the lime light because of his "privates" text messages" No pun intended.. Is his wife connected to the "Brotherhood?" In this day and age its better to be safe than sorry. I think if only for the sake of honesty and integrity Hillery should distance herself from Huma or at least let her be questioned by the CIA with lie detectors. I mean some of her relatives are extremists...
Comment....A few years ago after I retired from the State and Federal Government I worked in a Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation unit and as a result, today some of my best friends are clean and sober alcoholics and drug addicts. My good friend Jason explained it like this, when I asked him if there really was a cure for this disease?
Jason explained ...."You know you are addicted when you say to someone you can control your drinking and drug use. Some actually feel that they can cure themselves by not drinking or using drugs for short periods of time. Let me make this clear. If you are alcoholic, there is no cure. Alcoholism is a disease of progression. In other words, it is not a cure to stop drinking for short periods of time. When you drink again and you will, it will usually get worse not better. The desperately sick and addicted as a last resort will spend any amount of money to relieve themselves of the desire and compulsion to drink. Alcohol will control your life. Alcoholism is disease like no other. It is a disease that tells you are not sick and that its OK to drink or use drugs again after you quit for a short period of time. Believe me, its not. Total abstinence for the rest of your life one day at a time is the only way to stop the craving and desire to drink or use drugs. Did you ever quit smoking only later to smoke one cigarette and find yourself smoking like before you quit only more. Smoking is another addiction that is very hard to stop....Well, it’s the same with drinking or using drugs. Usually young people start drinking because of peer pressure. After a while it becomes the thing to do to fit in and feel good about doing questionable things. The alcohol commercials are proving that. Take my word for it, their goal is to get you hooked. To start you drinking. The younger the better. For woman, your inhibitions will disappear because of drinking. In the past you thought about what your parents would think or what the consequences would be of your behavior. When woman drink they lose their dignity or that "Healthy caution" and will do things they wouldn’t normally do. They become prey for the perverts. Did you ever wake up in the morning and not remember what you did the night before? Wonder where the black and blue marks came from or where the car was? No, well wait! You will! This will go on until someone suggests to you to try Marijuana. I don't care what they say! Marijuana is a stepping stone drug and if you use it, it will, more than likely lead to the use of other addictive drugs like prescription drugs, crack cocaine or heroin. Its only be a matter of time. It will be easier than drinking and it will make you feel high faster.. With woman its all about emotions, feelings and feeling good, so off you go. With most guys its about being shy and lacking self-confidence. Alcohol and drugs will allow that "false courage" and you will do things that you see on TV or in the movies. You will take those chances that you normally wouldn't. That usually leads to pain or death.. For some, addiction is a slow process. If you just drink it could take years but when you add drugs to the mix it won’t take as long. Alcohol will bankrupt you physically, mentally and spiritually. Some are lucky enough to hit bottom before they do too much damage. For others it will take longer and the longer it takes the odds are that person will find jail or death"….
Connecticut has a two-part gas tax. One part is a 25 cents a gallon excise tax that only consumers pay. Gasoline distributors pay the second tax — currently 21 cents a gallon — and the cost is passed on to customers at the pump."That is going to have a damaging effect on families across the state of Connecticut, especially those in the middle class," said McKinney, who is from Fairfield.
Thank you God for what I Have, for what you have taken away and for what you have left me...
Thank You, Dear God!!For All You Have Given me,For All You Have Taken Away From me,For All You Have Left me.

New York (CNN) -- Celebrity chef Paula Deen's contract with the Food Network will not be renewed, the network said Friday, the latest fallout over revelations this week that she admitted to using a racial epithet in the past.
"The Past and Today are like Night and Day"
When morals decline and good men do nothing, evil flourishes. A society unwilling to learn from past is doomed. We must never forget our history. J. Edgar Hoover
Remember a long time ago when we seen something bad happen to someone we would say, Hey, be careful it could happen to you. Well, the way things are going these days we say, its going to happen to you sooner or later even if you are careful. Try not to become collateral damage. I realize that human behavior has been questionable for thousand years and people have been wondering why people do what they do since the beginning of time. Things have escalated in the past few years and its my opinion that what is going on in this country these days is because of anger and rage. None of us is bullet proof to the craziness and insanity going on in the world today...We have come to the point here in the United States depending where you live that its too dangerous to venture outside. I realize it has always been somewhat like this, more or less but it seems like its much worse now. Ask yourself a few questions. Do you know who your neighbors are? Do you trust them? Are you sure? Would you let them baby sit your 13 year old daughter or give them the key to your house to watch while you go on vacation? I'll bet you are thinking about that? Has your home ever been invaded or broken into. Watch out there country dwellers you are on the list now. You are not untouchable anymore. I have never heard of that happening till a few years ago. Even you out there in the country in your 2 Million dollar home is not safe. Has there ever been a suicide in your family? No, but I'll bet you know someone who has? Has divorce hit your family? Your kids or nieces and nephews? Do you smoke cigarettes? Could you stop if you wanted to?...Right, try it.. How about Alcoholism or Drug Addiction? Do you really know what your son or daughter would do to get the drink or drug he or she needs when craving it? Do you have an Alcoholic or Drug addict in your family? Read about addiction and learn. Have you been touched by those deceases yet...Notice I said yet...Have you felt the misery of a death by car accident on the highways these days or by the horrendous weather we are having? Has a family member or even a friend ever been raped or murdered? How about losing your job or your home? Have you ever had your car repossessed? Have you ever been watched so much you are starting to get paranoid? Your cell phone is really a hand held computer that will tell everyone everything. Are you or your kids addicted to your phone. Do you go back and get it if you forget it at home? Could you go a day without it? Try that. Those cards the Supermarket uses. The ones you scan to buy something. Right, even they know what you are doing all the time. Ever wonder why you need a plastic card to buy almost anything? How about your kids. Have they left the family home to go out in the world only to come back to live with you again? Are they saving for their future and retirement? Hell, are you saving for your future and retirement? The way things are going now you won't be able to retire until you are 70. That's only if Social Security has any money left. Will you be healthy enough to work until you are 70? All those wonderful politicians you voted for that are spending millions to get elected or reelected are robbing you blind. Ask them about their retirement and health care. Don't believe me? Just wait, you will see! Remember when you knew the cop on the beat by his first name? The police today are more Military than anything else. They wear bullet proof vests and combat fatigues. They carry automatic weapons like in a the army. Police departments of today now have haz mat teams and a bomb squads. You haven't lived until you have been evacuated from a building because of a bomb threat or a mysterious white power scare. Kids are being shot in schools everyday somewhere in this country. And no its not just the ghettos. Oh, can I still say that? Think about that? Have your children been in a locked down school because of a white power scare? Its happening more and more. You are being scrutinized, searched and watched everywhere you go. From the highways and stores to Facebook and Google. Yes, you are...and there isn't a Blessed thing you or I can do about it. From those horrible reality shows on TV, which are not reality by the way and the movie violence, it is the worst I have ever seen. Promiscuity is normal today and modesty is nonexistent. There is nothing left to the imagination. As the years, months and days go by the odds of something I just described happening to you increase. So if you think you were careful before, brother you haven't seen anything yet....All because of money...The Bastards will do anything to steal or sell you something. They don't care about anything else..
"We have entire generations of kids on psych drugs, adderall, ritalin, and the list keeps growing. I am confident that there's a significant test and correlation between these drugs and so many of the episodes we have seen over the years. It's too easy to prescribe these ADD drugs and diagnose every undisciplined kid as having a deficit or learning disorder. Instead of good discipline and parenting, we reach for the MedX.
Keep buying the big pharma!"
Is Obama going to Qatar to personally negotiate ? How do they know if the Taliban negotiators aren't wearing bombs? Will they strip search them or make them walk thorugh bomb detrors before letting them in the room? Will they do this in different rooms? Who will be ordered to do this? Will they send woman negotiators? Is it a volunteer job? I can hear it now. "OK guys and gals I need a few volunteers to sit in a room with a bunch of sick guys that maybe have bombs strapped to them." Will we give them money?
I rolled out this mornin' the kids had the mornin' news show on Bryant Gumbel was talkin' 'bout the fighting in Lebanon Some senator was squawkin' 'bout the bad economy It's gonna get worse you see, we need a change in policy.
There's a local paper rolled up in a rubber band One more sad story's one more than I can stand. Just once how I'd like to see the headline say "Not much to print today, can't find nothin' bad to say", because Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town Nobody OD'ed, nobody burned a single buildin' down Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain We sure could use a little good news today
I'll come home this evenin', I'll bet that the news will be the same Somebody takes a hostage, somebody steals a plane How I wanna hear the anchor man talk about a county fair And how we cleaned up the air, how everybody learned to care Whoa, tell me
Nobody was assassinated in the whole Third World today And in the streets of Ireland, all the children had to do was play And everybody loves everybody in the good old USA. We sure could use a little good news today
Nobody robbed a liquor store on the lower part of town. Nobody OD'ed, nobody burned a single buildin' down. Nobody fired a shot in anger, nobody had to die in vain We sure could use a little good news today
Just a few more thoughts…
When I was working we used to have a guy that made homemade Pasta Vasul. God, do I miss that. I like saying that…….Pasta Vasul……
I wonder if the Shuttle crew can see things blowing up in Afghanistan?
I’ll never understand how or why a guy will wear his pants around the bottom of his bottom. I’m sure you have seen that….Someone told me they are called “Wanna-be’s. Whatever that is. I think its some sort of club. Someone should tell them it doesn’t help them if they need to run for their life. It would be unmanly to run pulling up your pants.
My dad use to say, “Lorenzo behave yourself I don’t want to see any monkey shines” I have no idea what a monkey shine is……. I looked it up on Wikipedia and I’m not sure I like the definition.
Speaking of Wikipedia….I joined that the other day. Now, I’ve got to figure out why…..
I think my Dad had a thing for monkeys…..At times when I would copy something or do things that other youngsters would do He would say, “Lorenzo, monkey see monkey do“……It could be why I like monkeys today……
My grandfather, father and grand mother called me Lorenzo. My mother called me Lawrence. My aunt hung the Monika Larry on me….Today most people call me Lar…
Every once and a while when I was young I would be upset over something trivial. My dad would say, “Lorenzo don’t make a mountain out of a mole hill”.
When I was young…Somewhere around 3rd or 4th grade. I was the victim of a bully. I’m sure there are many of us that have had that kind of trauma happen….I came home crying and my dad explained very carefully what to do when confronted with this behavior…..Keep in mind I was a shy quiet kid and found it very difficult and painful to be in that situation as I’m sure many of us were. My dad took me aside and told me when this bully started to pick on me and push me around to pretend to run away and when he chased me to turn quick and punch him in the nose…..He said, “The force of the punch with him running into my fist would cause his nose to bleed“. He told me that he would never pick on me again. I never got a chance to do that. The bully died 6 months later of a brain tumor. Years later I worked with his dad in the same building. It just happened to be in the building where the guy made the Pasta Vasul. I never mentioned that incident to his dad…..I’ll bet he thought of his son when he seen me……We were the same age…..
What's the old saying? If the dog hadn't stopped to take a leak he'd have caught the rabbit... These morons always say this kind of crap.. Could have, would have. Its too late now!
I said it long before they (officially) got caught. Bar codes, cell phones, cams everywhere. There is a computer in your car that not only says what is wrong with it.. Will it say where you are, what you are doing? Can it hear you having a conversation? That tiny little web cam on your lap top door that you think is off...They watch everything! If you watch TV they know what channels you watch, and when you watch. They program you to do things and say things with the TV in your house. Can it watch you ... Hmmm thats food for thought.. Rest assured they are trying or they can?...This NSA stuff is old news... They just got caught!
I received this E-Mail yesterday afternoon…

Dear Larry,
The cause that was posted for a boy who overdosed on Heroin...he was only 22 yrs. old and had a bright future until drugs controlled him. I do know that the addict has to want to stop before they can make any progress, I think these kids just don't understand the impact Opiates and Heroin have on them...a tight grip that won't let go. This boy Brian was my son's best friend. Unfortunately he's lost so many young friends to this addiction and he wants to stop for the most part, it just has such a tight grip on him...I'm afraid every day and night. I pray for all those with addiction problems and that they will be able to overcome it and heal. I pray for your son every night and mine too! I hope all is well with you. How'd the move go? All settled in?
My response was….
Well, Hi Lisa it’s a pleasure to hear from you. What a nice surprise. Yes, the move when well and I am very happy here at the shore. It feels like I’m home again and I belong here. No regrets or moving remorse. Yes, today with the young people its instant gratification with no thought of the consequences and the issues later in life. They think they are going to live forever. It’s the plague of this century and its at epidemic proportions. It got to the point I was glad he was in jail. I knew he was safe there. My oldest son has stopped using but because he started at an early age, drugs have left him void of love for family and himself. This young man is not the same son I had when he was born. Clean, maybe yes, but not normal. My second oldest son is the same way. Clean from all I tell on the outside but inside, the sickness of anger and hate is imbedded in the pits of their stomachs. They have lost their souls. There is nothing I can do but pray for them. My third son is like my best friend. We are close and happy no matter what the issues are. Lisa, I see you are very busy here on Face book and that’s a good thing. I like seeing you on my page. I’ll pray for your son and maybe he will find the Grace of God to try and stop and seek help… Thank you for asking and being here.

There seems to be a question about recycling where I live. At least I have a question?..I remember when I was a kid. Once a week my Dad put these 2 galvanized garbage cans into the trunk of his car. He had to tie the trunk lid down because they wouldn't fit. We went to a place called a dump. It was on a very bumpy dirt road in my town. Its Called Hathaway St. now. We had to go really slow down this road and Dad got mad if the car made a funny noise. There is a ball park and play ground there now. The town built those things on top of the dump. It was on Reed Ave in Windsor Locks Connecticut. He would back up his car up to a fly infested pile of trash get out of the car and empty the cans...I would wait in the car because he said he didn't want me to step on any glass. When we left that place the car would be filled with fly's...That is my memory of our local dump...Now its called recycling... Not to long ago I took ride on my bike to the recycling center in Suffield Conn. Its a huge facility that receives garbage from the surrounding communities. Those big garbage trucks you see a few times a week on your street back into these places and dump their load onto conveyor belts to be separated by workers (humans) and sent to different places in this huge trash factory . For example, plastic with plastic, aluminum with aluminum and glass with glass. The rest of the trash like paper and other things is sent to a special place in this factory. In other words nothing is actually thrown away. Everything is, to put it bluntly, recycled...I wonder who paid to build these places and who works there? Another question here is who is making money on the things you throw away? I seen freight car loads of shredded aluminum and plastic going somewhere...They want you to separate this stuff. Why? Do you separate your trash and garbage for them? Do you get paid for doing this? Why then, do you do this if someone does for you?
That's a new one, "Speed cushions". What happened to "speed bumps"? Changing the name doesn't make them any softer. Those bumps are for library driveways not for main roads. To unsuspecting driver this could cause major front end damage but we all know no one cares about that.. Hey, I got an idea! When there is a game if they are not to busy arresting drug dealers and pimps put a real live police officer there to slow the traffic down...When I was a kid and played that's what they did...And guess what?... It worked...
"Connecticut is home to 11 billionaires, whose combined wealth is estimated at $45.2 billion dollars, amounting to nearly 40 times the state’s projected deficit. Ray Dalio, currently the richest man in the state, has an estimated net worth of $12.5 billion, enough to pay the deficit off ten times over.
The massive wealth accumulated by these individuals remains inviolate, while the entire political establishment is united in its determination to extract the money needed to pay off the deficit by slashing the living standards of poor and working class families who are scraping to get by in the midst of the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression".
"Fathers Day 2013"
As far back as I can remember my dad always wore a hat. He never wore it in a Church a restaurant or in the house like they do today but only to work and when he was outside. I remember him taking off his hat when he went into a building. I remember him tipping his hat to the ladies...He was a very respectful and courteous... In the winter he wore a Navy pea-cap. It was around the time of World War two and I remember he said he was exempt from the Military. He told me, instead of the Military and because of our family, he called us "dependents" and at that time they only drafting single guys...So he worked in a place called the Springfield Armory in Massachusetts where they made guns for “World War Two“. He was a Machinist. ... My uncle, my moms brother, his name was Frank He was in the Navy building and repairing airbases on those islands in the Pacific. He was in what they called the “Navy Seabees“. He told me he "drove a bulldozer"..I remember he gave my dad a Navy pea hat and a pea-coat for the winter. He gave me a clock that he said, "came out of a Navy plane that crashed". They called it a, pea coat and pea hat because of the material it was made of. I often wondered what the “P” meant…In the summer my dad wore a baseball hat. He was a great baseball player. He played third base on the town baseball team. The name of the team was the "Kettle Brook Team". It was named after a once popular fishing brook in our town. I think its a swamp now by the Congregational Church on Main St....The uniforms they wore were like the Yankee pin stripes but my dad was always a Red Sox fan. He got to see them win a World Series before he died. He was happy about that. My son Adam even put a Red Sox hat in his coffin. He really would have liked that.
I especially remember one summer afternoon many years ago when they were playing baseball at the local ballpark near St. Mary's school in Windsor Locks Connecticut. Dad told me that the famous "Babe Ruth" and the Yankee baseball team visited the park while they were on some kind of tour. I remember one time at a game when I was standing near the fence with my fingers holding the fence and he came over and told me to never hold the fence like that because a foul ball might hit my fingers. I will never forget that. To this day I will never lace my fingers in a Chain link fence.....He always took care of me...He use to say to Mom to "Keep an eye on me" or "Watch over me" all the time. I was watching a game one afternoon when the batter hit a line drive, a hot grounder, a one bouncer to him at third base and he caught the ball and threw it from deep in the hole to first base and got the runner out...Everybody in the grandstand cheered. I didn’t know how important that was at the time but he was very excited when he explained it to me. His nick name was “Pap the Rooster”. All the players had nick names. From that moment on my Dad had the nick name "Pap". No one ever called him Joe which was his real name. I have no idea what that means but I think, “Rooster” is a term for a baseball infielder. I was only a little kid and very young but I remember that. When he was older and done playing baseball he wore a golf hat. For years he played golf all summer long at the "Copper Hill Country Club" in East Granby with my uncles and his friends. In the winter he went bowling. First at Blanch's lanes on Grove St. then at the "Villa Rose" on Spring St. in Windsor Locks on Tuesday and Thursday nights. I went with him because my Mom worked and I remember helping the owner of the bowling alley set up the pins. They said were “short handed”. I was called "the pin boy" and they paid me 6 cents a string...The bowling pins were called “Duck-Pins“. I remember the hat he had at the time with a bowling pin logo on it…On Sundays he wore a fedora to church like the one Humphrey Bogart wore in the movies. I have a picture of me and my Dad all dressed up for Church and we both had a fedora on. It looked like I was 6 or 7 years old. .
Dad, I will always remember the things you taught me, the wonderful example you set and the priceless things you said to me. A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you and think, what would my Dad do in a situation this? It never fails, I always make good choices when I do that.. It was an honor and a pleasure to take care of you and "Watch over you" in your last days like you took care of me.. I really miss you Dad... Happy Fathers Day.... I love you.....

Update..... First published on 2/27/2013.
On and on it goes... America is not a country anymore its a business... The greed gets thicker in Obama's new America! Have you become one of Obama's new clones? No, not one of those plastic human like machines on the Si-Fi channel on in the movies, not scientifically made but the kind made from your new environment. From now on, there is no middle class! You are ether rich or you are poor. Now you suffer or you don’t. For the poor, rage and anger are the new attitudes. Fear and Terrorism are the norm. For the rich, they just don’t care..There is no in-between. The majority of you have been programed and coerced into buying anything they are selling because of instant gratification and because they say you need to have it. Your freedom of choice is literally gone. You are doing these things automatically now. Your corrupt Illinois President and corrupt leaders in Washington are bought and paid for by the oil company's greed and big business. You are all blind or have been blinded to what is going on around you. You see and hear only what they want you to see and hear when they want you to see it and hear it. Everywhere you go, what ever you do. Whether its watching TV, being at the airport, buying food at the store, talking on your cell or just driving down the street. They know what you are doing, where you are and when you are doing it. They are watching and listening to you all the time. You have now become a statistic. You are just a number, a bar code. If you are too young to spend money they don’t need you. If you are old, you have become a throw away that is too expensive to take care of. They are slowly taking away your food stamps (SNAP) and health benefit's so you will die. Your peace of mind and serenity have been manipulated into buying material things and for the most part your freedom of choice has been taken away. They continue to lie and say everything is OK and you believe them... They want you to think that drugs and alcohol are to have a good time and not addictive. They don’t care because they want you to to spend money, That is what its all about. You are officially living in a very sick society…
The Ten Ways to tell if you are a Clone. Be honest if that is possible....
1. Do you walk around staring at your hand (Cell phone) for more than an hour a day?
2. Do you ever mute a TV show and watch commercials?
3. Could you NOT watch TV if you didn’t want to?
4. Do you let your kids play electronic games when the sun is out?
5. Do you play electronics games for more than 2 hours a day?
6. Are 2 of your 3 credit cards maxed out?
7. Do you buy things you don’t need when you can’t afford it?
8. Do you get up and watch Morning TV?
9. Do you charge things even if you have the cash to pay for it?
10. Do you think that Reality Shows are real?
If you answered yes to two of these questions you are a Obama Clone and you have been programed....Your life span has been shortened...
Thanks Claudette.. I'm sorry about my grouchy face. I call it my serious look. being "long in the tooth" (I love that) Don't worry I'll smile in the next picture.. I wish you lived near the shore for an occasional walk. It would be nice to talk to you..I had my second eye surgery (cataract) today and although I'm OK there is a lot of minor recovery time.... Take care Hun...((((hugs)))
Fifteen years in prison for O.J Simpson…Eligible for parole in nine years. Simpson, sixty years old and a college graduate by way of a football scholarship is still a liar and a thug and will go to prison for armed robbery. A suitable end for a suspected double murderer . A classic example of what goes around comes around. Sooner or later if you live long enough your past will catch up with you. You can run but you can’t hide. You can cover it up with smiles and jokes. It will find you. The lies will continuously surface and you will be put in the spot light and every one will know. Where ever you go, who ever you know, the lies and guilt will follow and at times will be overwhelming. After a while even to smile will hurt so much that you will have to pretend happiness. It’s the pain of worry and guilt. That nagging little voice in your head you try not to listen to but you have to because it will get louder. Remember, I said, “Our minds are our worst enemy“. That would be your conscience reminding you that it won’t forget until the day you die. Its often silent but like a time bomb it will remind you on an occasion when you least expect it. The people you hurt, you will see as reminders and they will be your constant anchors keeping you aware not letting you forget even if you could. Any happiness you feel is superficial and meaningless. Your elation won’t last. It will be just a fleeting moment before its deflated into that sick feeling of guilt and you begin to think and suffer all over again. Now its prison. Will it be institution green or gray? One or the other we knew it would be. That daily boring existence of sleeping behind bars. Being awakened at night in that constant dull roar that is always there and never seems to go away. Listening to the slamming cell doors and screaming nightmares of your mates. Then there is always the crying and howling of the others that pass the time in confinement with you. No private room for you O.J. a cell mate is in order for you, not of your choice but one of theirs. Will you be lucky or sad? Will you be happy sharing the same toilet with no privacy? That’s up to you to say. I won’t wish you well because I don’t know you, I just know of you and from what they say you are not a nice person. Will you have nightmares? Will you relive that night when you were looking through the window and seen what Nicole and Ron were doing in the house? Will you have “Those” nightmares? I don’t know? So the OJ. Simpson saga is over and after ten years of denial, that smirk and grin are gone replaced with fear and that,“ I cant believe this is happening to me” look. A promise was made and I certainly hope that you continue to look for the real killer while you are in prison. Whatever happens, as always, its up to you…
Can you smile for the camera? I bet you have a great smile. And don't give me this "baby steps " young woman ... we are both too long in the tooth for that. You know I will give you a hard time for this. Being one who also hates getting her photo taken, but sucks it up and does it on occasion.
I would love to see a photograph ( now the Paul and Art song is rolling through my head ) of you smiling with all your heart, with my DEAR Willie and your beautiful lady.
That's the first shot. I'm going to be greedy now. I would like to see photos of that diner you have spoken about for years. Of you and your friends that meet up there. See? I'm just down right greedy. Mean also. Wishing to see these magical faces and spaces that make you... the man you are.
Of whom I personally wish I lived closer to so I could just say, Hi Larry! How's your day? Are you off to beach? Look at the rocks and sea glass that I found?!?!? Have a good day. Don't forget to kiss willie for me and hug your sweetheart once for me twice for you.
Now doesn't that sound completely blissful?
You remember... A bushel and a peck.
Ah.. sigh.
So, about those photographs....?

Comment......Great movie ... Believe it or not there are people from. They say that we need to figure out how to stop it and stumble around loout there that wonder where the violence in this country is comming oking for answers. I have a feeling that sooner or later what happened in this movie will happen. Its just a matter of time...This movie shows how its done.. Believe me there is someone out there in this greedy country that will go over the edge and do it. The thing is there are so many warning signs no one is paying attention... They are too busy stealing your money while you are wondering where your next meal is coming from..

The town would be unrecognizable to anyone who lived there 30....40.....50 years ago or more. Rockville area used to be a great place to live and raise a family. The decline began and accelerated quickly in the early 90s or so. Criminals......drug and sex abusers......and underachieving lowlifes have replaced former residents who have long since passed away or moved out of the area bc they saw the area heading south quickly.
I remember very a long time ago it was, I think never shoot an unarmed man. Even in the movies the cops "winged" him. Remember that? Today's "cops" are not cops in the sense of the word. They are mostly ex-military who were taught to "shoot to kill" and if they didn't they are not here to talk about it. There are very few, if any real police "Cops" like in the past.. However I still go by the rule my wonderful Dad taught me when I was very young. He said, "Never mess with a guy that carries a gun and a club". That rule still applys even more so now.. I don't think the Dad's of today teach their kids much of anything so I don't expect things to change much in the future..
We have entire generations of stepping stone psych drugs like Adderall, Ritalin, and the list keeps growing. Now legal Marijuana is in the picture. I am convinced that there's a significant test and correlation between these drugs and so many of the episodes we have seen over the years. It's too easy to prescribe these ADD drugs and diagnose every undisciplined kid as having a deficit or learning disorder. Instead of good discipline and parenting, we reach for the Med X. Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. Pharmaceuticals don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or who dies...There is no “Cure” for addiction. Once you stop using drugs or alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The progression of the addiction disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to get better. Addiction is a disease like Cancer, or Sugar Diabetes. There is no cure.
You knew this was going to happen, didn't you. Next metal detectors and paid security to search you. Go on your first date with that beautiful girl and they get to touch her in those tender places before you. They get to look at her, here and there or up and down and check her out for her Dad's .357 Magnum. Searching your kids before the Walt Disney movie and charge you $20 a pop to do it.. Nice and guess what? Morons will still go to the movies..
Too many people to enjoy yourself. You will never be able to get into a State beach. All the others are private and they do have Security guards. You might get shot in a city. Its not safe. Lakes are too crowded and mostly private. Parks crowded. If you had the money for a resort you wouldn't be reading this... Save your money because the way they are stealing it now you are going need it later in life. Stay off Connecticut's highways they are all stalled with accidents or repaving for hours.. Best bet, go to a Library use the free internet, its air conditioned..
The war is closing in around us... I was talking to someone today who told me that her friends car had a bullet hole in it..
News update….. Gov. Danielle Molly’s office today announced that because of all the accidents and death on Connecticut’s highways single passenger cars will no longer be allowed. Effective immediately, only cars with 3 passengers. One must be a Lawyer and one an undocumented immigrant with no license. The odd and even day laws be in effect. He said that “Speed limits will be increased to 150 MPH” because he feels that even the people that think they are important need to be where they are going to make money. The State of cannot afford any State police presence so drivers can follow close and weave in and out of traffic and go as fast as they want.
Discontinue Senior tax exemptions and raise taxes higher as soon as possible. Send Eviction notices every 30 days.. Seniors are only a burden on society.. Install toll-booths on all streets entering and leaving. That should solve the problem. Then you will be able to give raises to all the Lawyers and Politicians.
A Wise Man said, that the only way to solve the refugee migrant problem that is overwhelming Europe now, is to [eliminate] the source that is causing it, [BUT], the Europeans are reluctant to do that out of fear of the ISIL terrorists? .. Never in the history of the world, has such a small group of people [terrorists] conquered so much territory and enslaved so many people, and forcing so many millions of displaced refugee homeless migrants trying to escape, to flee for the safety of Europe? As long as the terrorists control the lands of their homes and country, those displaced homeless migrants have no place to return too, [SO], the only solution is for some country or countries to get enough courage to fight and defeat the terrorists and take back their homes and countries, so they can return home? .. Dropping a few bombs on them just won't do? .. Somebody has to eliminate the source [terrorists] and wars, that's causing the refugee migrants to flee? .. it's not rocket science? .. [any halfway intelligent person would know that?]
Somehow, someway this is about more money for Lawyers. Now in Connecticut you can kill all the cops you want, lots of kids and politician's and if you are convicted you get a free ride to State prison with free room and board and an Internet connection. If you are really good in 20 years or so some bleeding heart will let you out to enjoy the rest of your life. Mad Dog Taborski would roll over in his grave if he knew this… Score Terrorists 1 ~ Hard working honest people 0
You sad pathetic addle-minded fool… You would think with your short life expectancy you would find something better to do with your time… Like finish Grammar school or find out who your real parents are…

In New York state, the number of landline subscribers has fallen by 55 percent since the year 2000.
New Jersey landline subscribers have decreased by 50 percent.
Similar trends exist Down Under, where industry analysts expect 1.4 million Aussies to cancel their landlines by the end of 2008. [source: Associated Press, Cauley, Woolrich].
Was once the best Quarterback in the league...He's dishonest! He lied and cheated during an NFL championship game. He deceived the fans. They won or did they win? His reputation is ruined.. His career the way it was is over… The Hall of Fame is not in the picture anymore! Lawyers are running his life and you know what kind of a bill he will get for that! Tom "who" is his new name.. Friends? What friends.. He looks say and depressed. That is what the artist was going for….. Gee, I wonder why???

Seventy years after the first atomic explosion lit up the New Mexican desert and nearly 25 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, both Russia and the United States retain nuclear postures from the darkest days of their rivalry. There are almost 16,000 nuclear weapons still in the world today, and the U.S. and Russia possess 94 percent of them. Worse, 1,800 of these Russian and American weapons sit atop missiles on hair-trigger alert.
Being in debt to a drug dealer is like having a death wish. They will kill you if you don't pay. They have special people that do this job and seldom, if ever get caught.. This killing will never stop no matter how much you talk about it or dramatize it.. Its actually getting pretty boring..
At first shutting off the TV was difficult. Its been a really long time now, 2 years, or 3 years but its nice not to know who is a Star or not a Star. I have no idea now who or what these people do. All the news or information I get is in the form of a EM and its my choice what I want to see. I have literately no mind clutter.. On this phone thing. If you have something for a long time it becomes a habit just to know its there whether it rings or not. The bottom line is I don't miss now. At first there was this "what if' feeling but now its a "glad it gone feeling". That black thing sitting on my desk was like an infection that wouldn't go away filled with blocked numbers like the puss of what this society really is all about. Its been amputated from my quiet life and now its time to move on.. Yes its time to change and I am willingly letting it happen.
He cheated... What kind of example is he setting for the youth of America with this behavior? The more he fights this the worse it gets. The NFL did the right thing only Brady should be banned from the Hall of Fame and the fine should have been 2 million dollars and suspension without pay for ALL of the games of next season. Robert Kraft should be fined 10 million dollars for not doing anything about the cheating...He didn't get to be a Billionaire by being honest....
When questioned by one of those entertainment shows a few years ago about their drug use, didn't R&B singer Bobby Brown say he got only "good" drugs for himself and Whitney? “From a dealer he could trust”? At the time his wife Whitney looked googly-eyed high during the interview. Now, it’s a few years later and I think he literally killed his wife and daughter with those "Good" drugs... We all know with kids, its learn by example. My Dad always said "Monkey see monkey do" Now Mom and Daughter are dead before their time by overdosing on those "Good Drugs"…
The rapids in the Suffield part of the river was a damn to flow water into the Canal. The river did have rapids down further because it was very shallow from Suffield to the Dexter paper mill in Windsor locks...Winters, storms and water flow have reduced the damn to what seems to be rapids. There was also a wooden bridge down stream from those rapids that crossed over into Enfield.. Look very carefully and you will still see the piers from that bridge...The labor that dug the canal by hand were the Irish immigrants. Some died while working on the canal and were buried in graves along side the canal.. Its like the Panama canal only built on a much smaller scale...Speaking of Washington.. In the commuter parking lot next to Rt. 91 is a plaque where there was once a house that Mr. Washington stayed over night..
Once you stop drinking alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The progression of the addiction disease never stops.

Its officially done. My land line is gone. For the first time in many years I am not connected or in this case subjected to a land line. Its a good feeling not to have to pay a bill to and be verbally abused by a continuous flow of phone solicitors. These days when you have a land line you become a prisoner in you own home by being harassed and continuously bothered by a non-person trying to sell you something.. AT&T was my company for years until it was taken over by something called “Frontier“. Both phone company’s are now at the point where the customer has become a consumer, in other words a modern clone or human robot. Its feels really good now not to have a TV or a phone. My mind is my own again.
The way societies are divided now. Its like we are living life in this order… The rich and poor…The rich, who seem like they are totally oblivious to your problems and drive around in their new luxury cars and the poor who barely scrape along on with a junky car, a menial job and welfare or no job at all. Its like there is no middle class. The rich fly around in their corporate jets and the poor,if they lucky enough to get a loan will only have enough money to be almost stripped searched before they get on a expensive crowded passenger jet. Essentially there are no slaves but the rich who are catered to and waited on and the people who do it. No, they are not called “Slaves” but think about it? We haven't really changed that much have we?
I don’t know but I think it all started with Benedict Arnold, a name synonymous with being a traitor or maybe naming a minor league baseball stadium after a corrupt U.S. Senator. Norwich has slowly been going downhill for many years. Which was once called the Rose City is now just your run of the mill Casino town with all the empty homes, the classic abandoned buildings and the drug dealers and the bad element running the streets. We can complain and argue but its too late. Change along with the corruption will always be there. Remember, they know what’s good for the city and you.. We can only sit by being an occasional thorn in their side reminding them we are watching. Believe me, they don’t care Now it’s a dead Rose City. . .
Can't get this Cosby thing out of my mind. When I worked at Bradley Airport I met him passing through the Terminal building going on my daily chores as Airport Electrician. Of all the so-called recognizable actors and actresses I have met he was the most aloof. During those years I have met my share of entertainers from Liberace, Sugar Ray Leonard and Robert Ryan just to mention a few.. Gene Pitney and I had coffee together in the coffee shop every time he traveled the world...
I would say that Cosby's attitude at the time was stand offish. Like I'm better than you. All those other famous people were very social and shook my hand with a big smile saying something nice.. I had no idea Cosby was a predator that preyed on very young white actresses for oral sex. At that point in American history 60s, 70s, that was really not the thing to do. I guess being a token black actor at the time had its advantages... I think its behavior like this that sets a bad example for everyone not just black youth. They will continue to be called a "they" and not a "we" ... if behavior like this continues... I know that at the time I did not like him for treating me like he did. I remember seeing him a few times getting into a Limo on the lower level. And so again what goes around comes around. As it turns out, all he is a perverted dirty old man who used his popularity at the time and took advantage, embarrassed and hurt young woman. He got caught with his pants down... You could have at least said hello to me, Billy...

I have been noticing in Norwich that in certain places were not busy like in the days past.. It seems the economy is not as good as they say it is. Or the casino that was supposed to help bolster the Norwich Connecticut area economy isn’t quite working the way the Greedy Indians and the so-called Honest Politicians said it would. I never believed those bastards. It looks like they took the money and ran. Norwich is dieing fast and crime is, well you know what I mean. The once beautiful Marina is closed and whole sections of the city are dieing. The low life predators are alive and well and slinking around in the dark corners. Typical of any casino town. Oh well, I could go on but what’s the point. Most of the old guard is gone and replaced by the greedy dishonest element and I fear there is no turning back. Glitz, high crime and murder are accepted as every day normalcy. Society and really caring have been desensitized to the point where murder and rape are just things that happen. Kinda like, OK, lets find something more horrific to open the evening news with. Save the boring stuff for later. I always think of the pain and anguish a family member feels when they learn later that the victim of that rape or murder was their grandson or granddaughter. Like I said what’s the point. The plans made for Norwich a few years ago are gone now with the promises of a long prosperous future now replaced by the drab and dangerous areas. Norwich was once called the Rose City…..Now its, The Dieing Rose city…..
You can take a Thousand Confederate flags down. There is a statue of a war hero on almost every street corner and in every town hall, libraries and on most front lawns. The Confederate flag is a symbol of Southern heritage and of the courage that their ancestors had during the Civil War and that will never change. The South is synonymous with the fight with the North.
“Each day means a new twenty-four hours. Each day means everything's possible again. You live in the moment, you die in the moment, you take it all one day at a time.”
When will Obama put the Military in the streets of American cities? Politicians with their rhetorical chatter only seem to pacify the gullible for one more day. Reality is, they have absolutely no idea what to do and the war in the United States continues to escalate. Each day the body count continues to rise around the country and in the cities. More and more innocent people and children are being shot in the streets. Could it be drug deals gone bad, could it be bigotry? Could it be suppressed anger and hatred towards our Lawmakers and Politicians? Fire fights are erupting and gun shots are ringing out in the city streets. Doctors and nurses are kept busy as emergency rooms are being filled with the dead and wounded. Its like the Revolution and Anarchy in the 60s and 70s with Viet Nam and the Hippy drug culture. Is it because of Muslim Terrorists and Unhappy Blacks and their drug culture. Except now there is a huge drug addiction problem compounded with Pharmaceuticals and Alcoholism. All those are a trigger for anger, fear and paranoia.
Violence stimulates the copycats and the Psychopaths into thinking that they can get away with the things they see on TV or in the movies because they think they are smarter. Did you notice that lately they are putting the most insane things on the TV news? They do this so people will generate more news.
In a sense they are reshaping cultural values. The young people of today are, for the most part not being taught at home or in school. Look at the epidemic of bullying lately. Years ago they learned by limit setting and their parents example. Today it’s the drug addict movie star or some other twisted thing on Facebook or YouTube. They see these things and guess what? Right, they are on the news and you are saying. ”Awww isn’t that a shame…
Lately I've found myself using the word Bastard or Bastards...I don't swear when I post but at times I can't think of a more descriptive word to describe some of the people, if you can call them that, that I write about. I don't like name calling and was taught by my parents not to call people names and I don't...Years ago the definition of a Bastard was a child born out of wedlock and was called, when describing this event was, he or she is the Bastard son or daughter of so and so. Whether or not that was said out of malice was what tone of voice you used.
The bottom line here is that I have my own definition for the word Bastard. To me a Bastard is someone who would intentionally run over any confused defenseless creature on the road. A Bastard is any hunter that kills creatures in the forest or woods for sport. And lastly, we all are familiar with someone who betrays the public trust and would steal money from people who can't afford to eat or pay their bills. The politician who does this is obviously a Bastard that didn't have parents who taught him or her about honesty. They have also been described as scum, lowlife or a bottom feeder...I prefer Bastards...
Hi, I hope you don’t mind that I friended you. I’ve been using POGO on and off since 2005 and through the years the friends I had in the past have gone elsewhere or, well I think you know what I mean. I haven’t updated my profile and I’m actually 76 years old. I would never say bad or negative things and wouldn’t hurt a fly. I thought I would friend some pretty ladies around my age within my token range just to have someone to say hi too when I go to a room. Thank you for understanding.
Effective immediately the new country wide posted State highway speed will be 150 mph. Back roads speeds will be increased from 30 to 100 mph. Because of driver licenses being issued to all illegal immigrants driving will only be permitted on odd or even days. Trucks will only be able to use the highways on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Your license plate number will be used to determine if its your day to drive. If caught driving on the wrong day a one year mandatory jail sentence and a $10,000 dollar fine will be issued. Drones will be flying over highways and cameras installed on the highways and roads will issue the fine to be sent in your mail. The computer that runs your car will shut off automatically and the car will stall. Towing charges by the State and Government will be $5000.
I know what you can do! Ban the Confederate flag and while you are at it take down the thousands of statues and pictures of all the Confederate war heroes on and in every town hall, road and intersection and while you are at it cover up the cemetery's in every State and build Walmart‘s on top of them. And if I remember right the South Carolina State Police uniforms are Confederate Gray. You better change the uniform color… Racism is alive and well in America and its never going to go away...
I'm still recovering from my trip. Wow, talk about motel flashbacks. You don't realize what it does to you when those miles add up like that.. Its like you don't have time to think things through. I spent the day yesterday doing preventive maintenance on the Mustang. Oil change and the Summer cleaning of the K&N air filter. Next its a tire rotation and check the front end alignment with a possibility of new front shocks.. Not today though, gonna take a break.
I get E Mail and updates from most of the local newspaper news or local channel headline news. I do this because I don't watch television news. Sometimes but very rarely I watch sports on TV.....After getting these alerts for a while I discovered its the same news every day...Its exactly the same, I couldn't believe it...Its always all about the most outrageous things people do to each other, their pets, wives, kids or mothers and fathers...The question is, do we really need to know these very disturbing things? I noticed the only thing different is the names and the towns and cities they come from. It never changes it just goes and on and on. Why are people acting out with this kind of behavior you may ask?
Yes, there are some sick people but the United States is not a happy place and it hasn't been for a long time. The trigger is things are changing faster than people can cope...Its the Trillions of dollars of National Debt but its mostly the hurtfully high gas prices. Do you really know how much a Trillion of anything is let alone a Billion? Paying $4.00 a gallon for something worth maybe .50 cents a gallon, if that. American Politicians will not say a word about that...Why?.. Because Washington with all its lawyer manipulation and legal corruption in the form of donations from oil company's and God only knows who else, that's why. Its because of greed and self interest and if they can't steal it they just legalize it and take it anyway. That's why. We are at a point where I don't have to prove anything saying what I say. Just look around you! The proof is everywhere.
Of coarse then there are the decaying morals and family values of the younger generation. Think about that son and daughter you may have or your little niece and nephew. There are young kids somewhere in your family. If you don't have any, think about your friends son and daughter. Who will they be having sex with in say, 2 years, 5 years or 10 years? Well, actually the question should be how many guys will she be having sex with? How many young girls will he be having sex with?...That TV in your house is programming them constantly. Its always saying everybody does it, why not you? Over and over It is saying to your kids you can't have real fun unless you drink alcohol and use drugs. Do you think it can't happen to your son and your daughter? Wanna bet? Take the time to check and see what they are doing on that laptop you bought for them for school...
And lastly, Government spending and Welfare are out of control The Foreign aid alone is outrageous.. Bail outs? You have got to be kidding, The Banks and the Stock Market have very few rules. What rules they have if you can call them that, have been stretched to the limit. A Lawyer will just manipulate the words to fix the problem. No one will take responsibility. No one will make the tough decisions. What I just wrote here just scratches the surface. They just talk, talk, and more talk. Its all about those deals and with who..You just pay and pay. It cannot continue. Lines have to be drawn. It can't last. Something is going to happen. The United States government is in serious trouble. Something has to give...Do you remember when stories ended with, "And they lived happily ever after"? Well, ...... "That will never happen now...
Dad, I will always remember the things you taught me, the wonderful example you set and the priceless things you said to me. A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you and think, what would my Dad do in a situation this? It never fails I always make good choices when I do that.. It was an honor and a pleasure to take care of you and "Watch over you" in your last days like you took care of me.. I really miss you Dad... Happy Fathers Day.... I love you.....
You pathetic addle-minded fool… You would think with your short life expectancy you would find something better to do with your time… Like finish Grammar school or find out who your real parents are…
Dear Lisa,
I am so sorry for my abrupt departure the other day. The heat combined with being tired did not help. After being there for a few days with the all bad drivers, bad tasting water and foul air I knew it was a place Cathy nor I could be. Thank you for the use of the condo and the air conditioning. We didn’t expect the conditions would be as bad as they are. Years ago the place for retirement was Florida, now its just too overcrowded. I know I surprised you by leaving like I did and for that I am truly sorry. I hope you will forgive us.. Later in the week after scouting around the East coast for a while I came across a quaint little old town called Manning South Carolina. It has a serine peaceful feeling and reasonable prices.. I would describe it easy living.. Again I am deeply sorry. I made the decision to leave so don’t blame Cathy..
Hopefully still your friend, Larry
When will Obama put the Military in the streets of American cities? Politicians with their rhetorical chatter only seem to pacify the gullible for one more day. Reality is, they have absolutely no idea what to do and the war in the United States continues to escalate. Each day the body count continues to rise around the country and in the cities. More and more innocent people and children are being shot in the streets. Could it be drug deals gone bad, could it be bigotry? Could it be suppressed anger and hatred towards our Lawmakers and Politicians? Fire fights are erupting and gun shots are ringing out in the city streets. Doctors and nurses are kept busy as emergency rooms are being filled with the dead and wounded. Its like the Revolution and Anarchy in the 60s and 70s with Viet Nam and the Hippy drug culture. Is it because of Muslim Terrorists and Unhappy Blacks and their drug culture. Except now there is a huge drug addiction problem compounded with Pharmaceuticals and Alcoholism. All those are a trigger for anger, fear and paranoia.
I miss you too…
Fast food ... Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don't waste anything. You could mention that they bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Mention the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig scream? Fast food again ...
That was years ago and now with the way they mass produce chicken, cattle and pigs and the way they slaughter them I will never eat meat again. The Beef and Pigs are injected with growth hormones to mass produce them. The same thing with Chickens. They are locked in small cage's suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. The oceans are poisoned with Mercury. Remember the Mercury warnings? They don’t tell you that anymore. Its worse now. Now its oil, radiation and what ever else they dump in the ocean. Don’t you ever believe that they care because they don’t. Its all about their profit margin. Remember when you could trust the producers of food. Well don’t! Look at all the over weight people from eating McDonald’s, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Wendy’s limping around this country. Believe me, No one cares!
Relocating Wild Animals
Not as humane as you might think
Many people believe that it is more humane to relocate problem wildlife than to kill the offending animal. Click For Euthanasia Chambers While on its face, this idea seems to make sense. Taking the animal and putting him back into the woods, "where he belongs" sounds reasonable.
Unfortunately for the animal, relocation has a number of bad side effects.
1. Relocated animals must find new food sources in an unfamiliar environment.
2. Relocated animals must find new shelter in an unfamiliar environment. In the winter time, relocated wildlife have precious little time to find shelter.
3. Relocated animals must do number 1 and 2 above while avoiding predators. It must also do those tasks before weather, food and water conditions take their toll.
4. Your relocation may result in the deaths of young through starvation that have now lost their mother from your relocating her away from her young.
5. Relocating animals raises the risk of relocating a disease like rabies to new and uninfected locales. Like what happened with the Mid Atlantic Rabies Outbreak.
6. It may also be illegal in your state. Presently, Massachusetts, Connecticut and possibly others have some sort of ban on the translocation of wildlife.
In a widely anticipated statement on the environment, Pope Francis blames global warming on human activity and says environmental degradation has reached a "breaking point."
The statement, called an encyclical, is a letter from Pope Francis to 1.2 billion Catholics around the world. But the Pope has said his message is addressed to "every person living on this planet" and is timed to influence several key environmental summits scheduled for later this year.
While calling for a moral response to climate change and other ecological issues, the Pope says "our common home" is plagued by myriad problems, from fossil fuels to a culture of indifference and "information overload."
With today's satellite technology cell phone servers could have a sensor in the phone that would shut off the phone in moving vehicles...I know they could.. But remember, what is it all about? That's right ..... The money...
Riparo Genuine Leather Full-finger Driving Gloves
As far back as I can remember my dad always wore a hat. He never wore it in a Church a restaurant or in the house like they do today but only to work and when he was outside. I remember him taking off his hat when he went into a building. I remember him tipping his hat to the ladies...He was a very respectful and courteous... In the winter he wore a Navy pea-cap. It was around the time of World War two and I remember he said he was exempt from the Military. He told me, instead of the Military and because of our family, he called us "dependents" and at that time they only drafting single guys...So he worked in a place called the Springfield Armory in Massachusetts where they made guns for “World War Two“. He was a Machinist. ... My uncle, my moms brother, his name was Frank He was in the Navy building and repairing airbases on those islands in the Pacific. He was in what they called the “Navy Seabees“. He told me he "drove a bulldozer"..I remember he gave my dad a Navy pea hat and a pea-coat for the winter. He gave me a clock that he said, "came out of a Navy plane that crashed". They called it a, pea coat and pea hat because of the material it was made of. I often wondered what the “P” meant…In the summer my dad wore a baseball hat. He was a great baseball player. He played third base on the town baseball team. The name of the team was the "Kettle Brook Team". It was named after a once popular fishing brook in our town. I think its a swamp now by the Congregational Church on Main St....The uniforms they wore were like the Yankee pin stripes but my dad was always a Red Sox fan. He got to see them win a World Series before he died. He was happy about that. My son Adam even put a Red Sox hat in his coffin. He really would have liked that.
I especially remember one summer afternoon many years ago when they were playing baseball at the local ballpark near St. Mary's school in Windsor Locks Connecticut. Dad told me that the famous "Babe Ruth" and the Yankee baseball team visited the park while they were on some kind of tour. I remember one time at a game when I was standing near the fence with my fingers holding the fence and he came over and told me to never hold the fence like that because a foul ball might hit my fingers. I will never forget that. To this day I will never lace my fingers in a Chain link fence.....He always took care of me...He use to say to Mom to "Keep an eye on me" or "Watch over me" all the time. I was watching a game one afternoon when the batter hit a line drive, a hot grounder, a one bouncer to him at third base and he caught the ball and threw it from deep in the hole to first base and got the runner out...Everybody in the grandstand cheered. I didn’t know how important that was at the time but he was very excited when he explained it to me. His nick name was “Pap the Rooster”. All the players had nick names. From that moment on my Dad had the nick name "Pap". No one ever called him Joe which was his real name. I have no idea what that means but I think, “Rooster” is a term for a baseball infielder. I was only a little kid and very young but I remember that. When he was older and done playing baseball he wore a golf hat. For years he played golf all summer long at the "Copper Hill Country Club" in East Granby with my uncles and his friends. In the winter he went bowling. First at Blanch's lanes on Grove St. then at the "Villa Rose" on Spring St. in Windsor Locks on Tuesday and Thursday nights. I went with him because my Mom worked and I remember helping the owner of the bowling alley set up the pins. They said were “short handed”. I was called "the pin boy" and they paid me 6 cents a string...The bowling pins were called “Duck-Pins“. I remember the hat he had at the time with a bowling pin logo on it…On Sundays he wore a fedora to church like the one Humphrey Bogart wore in the movies. I have a picture of me and my Dad all dressed up for Church and we both had a fedora on. It looked like I was 6 or 7 years old. .
This is just another attempt to make Clones out of human beings and being one step closer to the doom of the human race. Its another brainwashing tool. Just wait till the advertising agency's get a hold of this. Hey, if we can make them forget they will do the same thing over and over and spend more money.
Our minds were meant to remember, to live and learn by our mistakes so we wouldn't do the same thing over and over. We need to laugh at our silly mistakes or set an example for the young by the bad ones. If this so-called scientist could create a method to eliminate all the murderers, thieves and psychopaths from society and the world, then I would agree with him... You absolutely NEED to remember the things you did in the past, its human nature. Like this guy really needs to remember to stop watching the Si-Fi channel. I'm sure I'll be able to remember that....
I’d like to keep all my memories…The happy ones are like personal treasures that I look back on with pleasure. The bad memories fade away but they are mostly the mistakes I made getting the good ones…
“Middle Names”
Do people still have middle names? I was named after my Dad. At the time that is how they said it. “To be named after“….. It was a tradition in families years ago to be named after a family member.. For example my first name is Lawrence. I was named after my uncle who died in drowning accident when he was 13.. The name lives on and I‘m proud of that.…. My second name is Joseph after my Dad. My third name is Charles after my Grandfather who died at a young age. He was 50. That is a Confirmation name. That is a Catholic thing. Get it so far? When my kids were born we were running out of names we thought we would be different and pick the names.. It was OK because we named them after Saints. My number one son is named Stephen. His middle name is, guess what? Right, Lawrence after me. I picked those names… Stephen Lawrence … My number two son is named David and his middle name is John. John is after my wife’s brother. David John. My wife picked those names.. Number three son is named Adam I picked Adam and she picked Michael because I picked the first one. Adam Michael.. I think we did a good job and thought of some outstanding names… My wife’s name was Ann and her middle name was Loraine and I’ll bet a lot a people didn’t know that..
It started for me when my Dad took me to all the Windsor Locks Parades. Then I was in the Cub Scouts Mrs. Ditto from Spring St. was our leader. Then the Boy Scouts. Then the Army National Guard. Today I am so grateful to have all those wonderful memories.. I'm glad to be the age I am. Its so much different to what we have become.
After the feeling of "I got away it" will come the vision of the young girl he might have been responsible for killing 2 years ago.. Her life will be on his conscience till the day he dies.. She will haunt him…
Buying a house means you need to save money each month to pay your Taxes every year.. You need a really good job to do that.. Then there is Insurance, trash pick up, town meetings to vote for increases and raises for the politicians who are in charge of your future. Make sure you check who your neighbors are and where the schools are. If you fail in any of these or lose your job they will take it away from you because its not really yours in the first place... If you buy you will understand what that means...
Dog is God spelled backwards...
You don’t find ways 2 provide value across the whole bakeshop by raising prices for day old bread and pastry?
Why did you raise the price of day old bakery goods at the Groton Ct. store? It hurts seniors looking for an affordable treat!
A win by cheating is still a win even if the game is tainted with lies and deception.. The history book, if there is such a thing anymore will say "controversial". The NFL did the right thing.. The fine should have been 2 million for Brady and suspension of the last 5 games of next season. Robert Kraft should be fined 10 million dollars for not doing anything about the cheating...He didn't get to be a Billionaire by being honest.... Oh and by the way the GIANTS beat them and didn't have to cheat...
By the people and for the people is gone and in the past. Now its profits over people. To whom it may concern. The people of Norwich don’t care about those 200,000 visitors? Therere too many “visitors” driving through the city now…All of a sudden “Surprise” lets cut the trees down because we don’t care what people say.. Remember! “Profits over People”. True, I don’t live in Norwich now but I did in the past for a very long time.. I moved to take care of my parents in their last years but mostly because the “City Fathers” allowed them to build that horrible casino. These days, once or twice a week only because of its beauty I return, to walk or ride my bike in Mohegan park. However everything must change. The wonderful children’s Zoo is gone. Taftville is a ghost town, downtown is starting to accumulate empty buildings and the Marina is not what it used to be… Now that beautiful serine park is slowly being ruined because of greed and legal corruption. Hey, the old school is disappearing why should they care? The feelings of the neighbors around park don’t count. The flagrant abuse of power and the not caring is evident. If I hurt anyone with my words here, it was my intention. Now you know how I feel…
Dad, I will always remember the things you taught me, the wonderful example you set and the priceless things you said to me. A day doesn't go by when I don't think of you and think, what would my Dad do in a situation this? It never fails, I always make good choices when I do that.. It was an honor and a pleasure to take care of you and "Watch over you" in your last days like you took care of me.. I really miss you Dad... Happy Fathers Day.... I love you.....
The real world is jobs at Burger King, Walmart and Stop and Shop. McDonald's is nice for work as well as Starbucks.. Of coarse there is Filines or Home Depot for a step up... but they will be closing soon.. There is always Kentucky Fried Chicken. Better hurry at Walmart and Stop and Shop they are eliminating cashiers in favor of check out computers. Also be careful because there are a lot of Immigrants, illegals and blacks working at these places and since they can't discriminate. Its first come first served. No pun intended. I wouldn’t look forward to paying back the student loan any time soon.. They don't care what kind of education you have...My advice is, don't give away that bedroom at your parents house yet. You will be needing it..
In this society drugs and pills become part of you and without them your on a sinking ship and its only a matter of time. Your on a sinking ship anyway because the pills they don't use they flush and the results end up it the environment and drinking water. Well folks hang in there because its going to get bumpy……Stay tuned….
Plenty of social atmosphere at Burger King, Walmart and Stop and Shop. McDonald's is nice for socialization as well as Starbucks.. Of coarse there is Filines or Home Depot for a step up.. There is always Kentucky Fried Chicken. Better hurry at Walmart and Stop and Shop they are eliminating Cashiers.. Be careful because there are a lot of illegals and blacks working there and they can't discriminate.
Why are you cutting trees in Mohegan Park? Why are you making it confusing for some people to post things like this? Who is making money by cutting trees? What is the name of the person who thought of cutting trees in the park? YOU ARE RUINING A VERY BEAUTIFUL PLACE!!!!!!!! Profit over People!!!

In comparison, we as humans (most of us who qualify as humans that is) although we take up space we are smaller than a grain of sand on the beach and mean absolutely nothing... In time, no matter who you are or what you have done or how much money you have, no one will care or even know you existed.. We are not even dust in the wind..
I am overwhelmed with the amount of anger there is about this decision to bailout the crooks in this country. I admit to not knowing what its all about simply because I don’t want to be too angry. Its an "Ignorance is bliss" kind of thing. I only see the red-faced anger of the folks on TV and now on the streets and places I frequent. I was talking to some of my friends yesterday and they told me of people saying some not so nice things. Some of the thoughts and things you don't want to say out loud because you don't want the wrong people to hear these things. I will say these are God-fearing religious people and I have never heard this kind of talk before. Its rather dangerous to say these things. I will say that there will be more stealing, cheating and anger and if you think that money is going to fix things you are wrong...It will cause more fear and anxiety to the point that there may be riots in the streets. I know what you are thinking but it is possible. I don't know what gives those fools in the White House the right to steal this money from the taxpayers. That is not what the constitution is all about. I have got to go now before I say something I'll regret....
“Ignorance is Bliss"
These days that is so true…
What are parents not doing? Are they setting a good example? Do they set limits? At what age do you say enough is enough...Its still OK to say “Don’t watch that show“ Its still OK to say if your friend jumps of the bridge doesn‘t mean you have to! .. Most of the problems start when both parents work and the kids are left unattended. The supervision that young people desperately need is not there. This is how the trouble begins. Young people with very curious minds should be reminded that the TV show they watch is just what the name implies. “A Show” or an act and its not real. Its as simple as that. Tell them its fake and in between the commercials and ads that entice you buy something its designed to titillate your imagination. To provoke you into doing things that will hurt you. To make you spend money. Believe me that is true…Most shows today are designed to sell you something. A game or a product or a drug. TV today is only an advertising tool you involuntarily let into your house so they can make money. Think of it as something, “that sell things continuously“. The entertainment value is practically zero. A few years ago they had something called prime time TV...Now its mostly an exhibition of who can do the most asinine things…Real people are not like this but we are turning into a society that does crazy things to be famous. What they do is just an act for the camera. The shows or sitcoms that are still there are laced with body part jokes that are more for shock value and are not in the least bit funny. Did you notice the bullying epidemic got worst when a show called “Glee” started. The writers of that show wrote “Nip-tuck“. Doesn’t that tell you something? They turned the “Talent show” craze into a show that goes to the edge. One that pushes things to the limit. Yet, no one did anything about it.
Those writers are allowed to poison the minds of the kids who will believe the stuff they write.. Its the same thing with so-called reality TV. Its not real.. Then there is the internet…Believe me here, parents cannot let young minds go on the internet without supervision… Never ever trust your son or daughter to do this alone. It’s like giving them a handgun and bullets then telling them to never to load the gun… Its mental suicide… The cell phone is something else that is addicting and hazardous to your mental health. Not to mention it costs a small fortune every month. People will do practically anything to pay the cell phone bill every month. We have turned into a society walking around looking at our palms addicted to a hand held computer. How many Politicians and celebrities were caught exposing their private parts via text message? Do your kids do that? Do your kids send sex messages? When was the last time you checked your son or daughters cell phone? Think about that… A young mind is very open to suggestions good or bad. A kid will usually try anything once. TV ads prey on families where both parents work. The advertisers know this and don’t care. Its like they are setting a bad example on purpose. Young minds are being shoved and pushed in the wrong direction everyday. Families are in chaos and being torn apart because of drug and alcohol addiction. Sickness and health mean nothing anymore… My solution is simply not to watch TV. The more I talk to people about this phenomenon the more I hear of them doing the same thing. By not watching TV I feel a lot better and my mind is clear of negative thoughts and ideas.
Today we are in the middle of a drug, alcohol, and electronic epidemic. They don’t want you to know this…Take a pill to feel good and if you feel good then have a drink to celebrate feeling good. Have a drink to watch a sport or celebrate a win… They want you to think If you don’t drink you will feel alone and left out because everybody drinks and takes pills.…This is what they are programming young minds to do. Kids actually think this is what real people do. They don’t want you to be an individual they want you to the join the crowd and spend, spend, spend. That is what they are really saying. They don't care who lives or who dies...
All you tourists must go much faster so important people can get to where they are going... Its very important to go much faster than the normal 100 mph. Try to follow really close and keep the speed to 150 mph..
My mind must be in a self-protection mode today because every time I think of all the bad things going on in the world something happens and it shuts down. I actually shake my head in disbelieve when I hear or see the things people are doing to each other. Sometimes I laugh out loud. Other times I feel a profound sadness. I’m sorry. I just can’t help it, the only word that comes to mind is ludicrous. I won’t say a peculiar thing because there is just so much happening. Is it me or are things getting worse, crimes I mean? People are still killing people but in a more horrific way. The greedy thieves are still taking advantage of the less fortunate and sometimes I don’t believe what is happening. The worst part or good part is. It all depends how you look at it. I can’t make myself care. Its like I lost the ability to feel….Too borrow an old phrase from the” Star Trek“ TV show, it must be I’ve got my “Shields up“. Yes, I’ve got them set to go up automatically when the insanity is at a higher level that usual. Almost like a firewall…… With me, its business as usual and life goes on, or at least what is left of what people think is life and happiness. To be the bearer of bad news, lately I noticed the price of gas creeping up. Here, its getting close to $3 dollars a gallon for regular. You can see the greedy users and the takers are alive and well. It just never ends. I’m am not in a good mood and I feel lost because can’t find much to be happy about…..What I usually do when I feel like this is. Are you sure you want know this? Its heavy duty……..Well, OK ….Here it is….Wait for it………..Wait…………A little longer……………….Ok,…I sit back, take a breath and look at what I’ve got and then I think of all the folks who have less or who are less fortunate and I feel better….Then and here is the most important part, I help someone else… Even if its only with a smile. It works every time….I’ll bet you thought I was going to say pray or go to church…..Well, if that’s what you need to do, by all means do it but don't forget to say thank you. This is the perfect place for a Dad quote…….”I used to complain because I couldn’t run fast until I seen the little boy with no legs”………….

“Priest's Retirement Dinner”
Someone sent this to me…………..After thinking about it for about 4 seconds I decided to do a little editing and post it….The way the politicians are these days it could be a true story…
A Priest was being honored at his retirement dinner after 25 years in the parish. A leading local politician and member of the congregation was chosen to make the presentation and give a little speech at the dinner for the Priest..
However, the politician was delayed, so the Priest decided to say a few words while they waited.
He went to podium and said, “I got my first impression of the parish from the first confession I heard here. At first I thought I had been assigned to a terrible place. The very first person who entered my confessional told me he had stolen a television set and, when questioned by the police, was able to lie his way out of it. He said, he had stolen money from his parents, embezzled from his employer, had an affair with his boss's wife, taken illegal drugs and gave VD to his girlfriend. I was appalled. But as the days went on, I learned that my people were not all like that and I had, indeed, come to a fine parish full of good and loving people”.
Just as the Priest finished his talk, the politician breathlessly arrived full of apologies at being late. He immediately walked to the podium and began to make the presentation and start his talk by saying, “I’ll never forget the first day our parish Priest arrived, In fact, I had the honor of being the first person to go to him for confession”.
Moral of this story….. Never, Never, Never Be Late.
Violence on TV stimulates the copycats and the Psychopaths into thinking that they can get away with the things they see on TV or in the movies because they think they are smarter. Did you notice that lately they are putting the most insane things on the TV news? They do this so people will generate more news. In a sense they are reshaping cultural values. The young people of today are, for the most part not being taught at home or in school. Look at the epidemic of bullying lately. Years ago they learned by limit setting and their parents example. Today it’s the drug addict movie star or some other twisted thing on Facebook or YouTube. They see these things and guess what? Right, they are on the news and you are saying. ”Awww isn’t that a shame…
Classic story for the all the brave Scumbags at Department of ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Bastards to brag about at thier local VFW. How he and his coward friends killed a defenseless wild bear during mating season. Or even better yet shot while she was protecting her Cubs.. These guys are just another bunch of losers that have a short life span.. They better go home to check what their wives are doing? Maybe with a real man? To you assholes who run in the woods...The wild life belongs there YOU DON'T...If you live in Granby or East Granby you KNOW the Bears are there...
Its so sad you are a pathetic addle-minded fool… You would think with your short life expectancy you would find something better to do with your time… Like finish Grammar school or find out who your real parents are…

On October 31, 1975, the partially nude and bludgeoned body of 15-year-old Martha Moxley was found in the backyard of her family's house. She disappeared the night before after attending a Halloween party at the Skakel home, one block away from her home in Greenwich, Connecticut. ….. Michael Skakel from Connecticut beat her to death with a golf club, was convicted in 2002 of murdering Martha Moxley and sentenced to 20 years to life In 2013. He was granted a new trial by a Connecticut judge and released on $1.2 million bail, is now being appealed by the prosecution.
David Cay Johnston writes, “Monday’s riots in Baltimore offered a powerful warning about what lies ahead for America if its epidemic of inequality continues. But will we understand the message in the chaos? “A riot is the language of the unheard,” the Rev. Martin Luther King said. What gets lost in translation is the logic that motivates rioters, whose inability to articulate their frustration finds expression in rocks thrown at police, looting neighborhood stores and setting fires. To outside observers, these actions appear irrational and self-defeating.
It starts with the lack of parental supervision then paranoia, fear, anger, revenge, rage and resentment. It begins with the use of Prescription drugs leading to alcohol then street drugs turning into visions of grandeur…You don’t need a doctor to figure that out..
If you think about it drug dealers are responsible for the addiction and death of many young men and woman. I realize that the addicts give the drug to themselves but if they had no way to get it.. Well think about it...Addiction ... There is no “Cure” for addiction. Once you stop using drugs or alcohol you cannot start again. If you do it will be like you never stopped and it will get worst. The progression of the addiction disease never stops. Total abstinence for the rest of your life is the only way to get better. Addiction is a disease like Cancer, or Sugar Diabetes. There is no cure. In the past drug dealers gave you a free sample of what they wanted to sell you to get you to come back for more. It didn’t take long before you would do just about anything (steal, sell yourself, Do you remember girls?) to get the drug. Today anything goes and they do that to sell you just about anything. You know the stories. The tragic death of the high school kid who used just a little too much or committed suicide because he or she thought they couldn’t stop. They are right Execute the dealers...
Martial law is the imposition of the highest-ranking military officer as the military governor or as the head of the government, thus removing all power from the previous executive, legislative, and judicial branches of government.
It is usually imposed temporarily when the government or civilian authorities fail to function effectively (e.g., maintain order and security, or provide essential services).
Martial law can be used by governments to enforce their rule over the public. Such incidents may occur after a coup d'état (such as Thailand in 2006 and 2014); when threatened by popular protest (China, Tiananmen Square protests of 1989); to suppress political opposition (Poland in 1981); or to stabilize insurrections or perceived insurrections (Canada, The October Crisis of 1970). Martial law may be declared in cases of major natural disasters; however, most countries use a different legal construct, such as a state of emergency.
Martial law has also been imposed during conflicts and in cases of occupations, where the absence of any other civil government provides for an unstable population. Examples of this form of military rule include post World War II reconstruction in Germany and Japan as well as the southern reconstruction following the U.S. Civil War.
Typically, the imposition of martial law accompanies curfews, the suspension of civil law, civil rights, habeas corpus, and the application or extension of military law or military justice to civilians. Civilians defying martial law may be subjected to military tribunal (court-martial).
Mother and son shot to death says it all. "He was younger than 18 when he pulled the trigger". He actually said that? Good confession.. He's old enough now.. He belongs where he is...
The President and Governor both agree and announced today that they think everyone should be able to go faster. So effective immediately the new country wide posted State highway speed will be 200 mph. Back roads speeds will be increased from 25 or 30 to 100 mph. Effective immediately. Because of over population and driver licenses being issued to all illegal immigrants driving will only be permitted on odd or even days. Your license plate number will be used to determine if its your day to drive. If caught driving on the wrong day a one year mandatory jail sentence and a $10,000 dollar fine will be issued. Drones will be flying over highways and cameras installed on the highways and roads will issue the fine to be sent in your mail. The computer that runs your car will shut off automatically and the car will stall. Towing charges by the State and Government will be $5000.
There is a sadness about this that make people like me glad to be the age I am. We can only sit back and watch as the once wonderful country I knew is slowing dieing because of insensitivity and greed of the corrupt bureaucrats..
Comment.........I have been thinking about the comments I made the other morning about illegal’s. I understand the intolerable conditions of some of the countries they come from but when they come to America they have the responsibility to join the work force, pay taxes and obey the laws. Coming here is not free. If they want to stay they need learn the English language and become a citizen. I didn’t say it was going to be easy…I mentioned before my grandmother and grandfather did it and they practically raised me while my parents worked. Let me tell you something…..If I moved to Italy, France or Russia for that matter, I guarantee and promise that within 6 months I would speak the language. I know and realize that because I would have went there prepared to do what is asked of me. I certainty would not expect them to change for me. Remember, “When in Rome do as the Romans do”. I understand that there are rules and laws and its not easy. Its nice here but moving here does not come with all the perks. It’s the responsibly of anyone who moves here, to work, take care of the environment and if they plan to stay, learn to speak English. They must also learn our cultures and be respectful no matter how hard it is. Its not as easy as its cracked up to be….

Where are your glasses?
Yesterday my daughter e-mailed me again asking why I didn't do something useful with my time.
“Like sitting around the pool and drinking wine is not a good thing”, I said. Talking about my "doing something useful" seems to be her favorite topic of conversation. She was "only thinking of me" she said, and suggested I go down to the Mens' Shed and hang out with the guys. I did this and when I got home last night I decided to teach her a lesson about staying out of my business. I e-mailed her and told her that I had joined a parachute club.
She replied, "Are you nuts? You are 75 years old, and now you're going to start jumping out of planes?"
I told her that I even got a membership card and e-mailed a copy to her.
She immediately telephoned me, "Good grief, where are your glasses? This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club.
"Oh man, I'm in trouble again; I really don't know what to do... I signed up for five jumps a week." The line went quiet and her friend picked up the phone and said that my daughter had fainted.
Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier but sometimes it can be fun.

President Abraham Lincoln died here at Petersen House, after being shot the previous evening at Ford's Theatre located across the street. This photo was taken in 1900- 115 years ago, and from the sign we see there was an admission price of 25 cents
Yes it is sad but its real. Its just when they say everything is good and it isn't. Its like they are being overlooked. No, its not all like this. Its the hundreds of for sale signs on houses in certain areas. They will ignore a perfectly good empty building and build another one next to it for a business. The farms are gone. They will cut down fields of trees for a coffee shop knowing there are 3 more a mile away. Farm equipment is left to rot. I imagine a hard working man or woman working all their lives only to die and the result is boards over the windows and junk all over the place. All those factory's along the rivers are gone or rotting away. Sad, yes you are right. No one cares...What I am posting are reminders. I will always be a thorn in the side of the Bastards who make the rules and regulations.....

As the war continues here in the United Stares.. Did you get the feeling there are a lot of unhappy people in this country.
I understand there is crime in Hartford...I think I got it right because it says "Windsor Locks" on the page... However I want the Windsor Locks, Windsor. E. Granby. and Enfield area.. Please send me the proper links for those areas.. Thank you..
Remember when the excuse was to allow the Indians to build Casinos so tax dollars could pay for education in Connecticut. Now they are closing schools and cutting school programs. The result is dying communities around the Casinos and schools filled with the children of casino workers and Illegal children. Drive through Norwich Conn. If you don’t believe me..
Fast food ... Did you tell them what was in that hamburger? Its not exactly beef. Maybe a little beef chemical flavor but don't forget they grind up every part of the cow. Private parts, brains tongues and God only knows what else. Keep in mind they don't waste anything. You could mention that they bleach wash that meat and add chemicals, growth hormones and steroids. Mention the torture and pain of a slaughter house. Yes, whether a creature was grown for food or not. It can feel pain...They know when they are going to be killed. Did you ever hear a pig scream?
Drugs ... We have entire generations of kids on psych drugs, Adderall, Ritalin, and the list keeps growing. I am convinced that there's a significant test and correlation between these drugs and so many of the episodes we have seen over the years. It's too easy to prescribe these ADD drugs and diagnose every undisciplined kid as having a deficit or learning disorder. Instead of good discipline and parenting, we reach for the Med X.
You pathetic addle-minded fool… You would think with your short life expectancy you would find something better to do with your time… Like finish Grammar school or find out who your real parents are…
Treatment center.. At the rate this country in swirling down the toilet with Pharmaceuticals and drug use we are really going to need another rehab...
What's weird is no one wants you to know this because no one cares…Its all about the money..
A segregated schoolhouse, South Carolina, 1905. I'm thinking this was one of the better schools for black children in the south in those days- it looks very pleasant, the children are well dressed and the teacher looks like a nice and caring person.
Its all about speaking and reading English and having a Passenger Endorsement on their drivers license if they bother to have one. Its about Insurance and drivers who are felons. Then there are the illegal’s and do they really have a drivers license and how many DWI's do they have? Photo ID’s and finger prints and to pass a driving livery test. Background checks should be mandatory... These days with all those Lawyers waiting on the sidelines for a driver to screw up, the more rules the better.
While they are learning about efficiency.. Teach them why the public needs to Raped with those high propane, oil and gas prices.. also find out how our corrupt lawmakers can sleep at night knowing people in Connecticut are cold and losing their homes and families because of high prices.
Just ignore this message if you are one of those corrupt bottom-feeders... Ask Getty junior he knows now.. Look at all the happiness it got him..
Banned from going to another State says it all. Who does this public servant think he is? Hey I know... We can sell whiskey on Sundays.. Now that's freedom... Don't forget Tolls on all the highways forgetting that fiery accident that killed that whole family a few years ago...Now you are free to go on highways.. And when you go on, go as fast as you want because police presence is slim to none. Just be careful of all the construction... If you are lucky maybe you can cause a trailer truck to roll over and kill someone... Sorry about that, what's the topic? Gay people buying flowers at a florist... Can I still say that? I know what! Stay off the highways and fly... If you don't mind having your picture taken and being searched and humiliated... Free, who's free?
First of all he is not a Sergeant.. Its called “time and grade”. He walked away from his company 5 years ago and its because of this time, only was he was given the rank of Sergeant. He DID NOT EARN IT! I don’t why Obamea got him out of there but something doesn’t smell right. Something is going on here we don’t know about! You don’t just do this for a liar, coward or a traitor! He is one of those… His parents (Muslim) at the White House for a photo opt, give me a break! Is that lawyer a Muslim? Who is paying for all this?

Math is the universal language, and it rarely ever lies. Each game you play at a casino has a statistical probability against you winning. Every single time. This house advantage varies for each game, and helps ensure that over time the casino won't lose money against gamblers. For people who are really good at Blackjack, the advantage for the casino might only be 0.5%, but certain types of slot machines might have a 35% edge over a player, and other games fall somewhere in between. The slot machine odds are some of the worst, ranging from a one in 5,000 to a one in about 34 million chance of winning the top prize when using the maximum coin play.

.. Besides there are a lot of corrupt unconvicted in office now. As soon as Roland gets out of prison would you hire him? The next thing you know they will be hiring felons at Burger King..
For years Robert Durst has had a psychopathic personality, it manifests as amoral and antisocial behavior and the lack of ability to love or establish meaningful personal relationships, extreme egocentricity, failure to learn from experience. If you look at this case from the beginning his lawyers getting him free are responsible for his actions. Keep in mind he murdered his friend when he found out who he was. He then cut up his body with a ax and a saw, then put the pieces in garbage bags and dumped him the river.. They still can’t find his friends head because Durst shot him in the back of his head. It was not an accident..
He is just one of the reasons we had Insane Asylums years ago...
I can hear the lawyer now.. This was all a big mistake, he is a hard working honest person, busy corrupting the minds of the black and white youth America with his music… I can hear Suge saying "Get me out of here you Whore Bit--! You Mothr fruckers got the wrong dude... I can hear the Judge say $25 Million.. I can hear Suge saying "get me a new Mothr Frucking lawyer.. Sorry, I couldn't resist.. \ By the way the fainting was all a show....
This is a Muslim attempt to seduce the young woman of the world and the United States and they will find those who will think, “its so cool to wear one of those”. The next step will be to get them to join a terrorist group. Third step will be how to strap a bomb on and go to a school or the super market. You will say “its so sad, where were her parents”.
The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. Albert Einstein
Summer around here in Rhode Island and Connecticut means huge traffic problems. Its ether bumper to bumper or everyone is going 150 mph on Route 95. Its high prices and dumb looking, sickly pale people talking different languages, with their stupid looking clothes thinking they are so cool. What’s interesting is they will pay for stuff, triple the price, and think they are getting a deal.. For me it means I can’t see my friends until all these aliens go back to where they came from… Its not a healthy environment until they go away…

Fast food again ...
That was years ago and now with the way they mass produce chicken, cattle and pigs and the way they slaughter them I will never eat meat again. The Beef and Pigs are injected with growth hormones to mass produce them. The same thing with Chickens. They are locked in small cage's suffering and crying used only for their eggs and then slaughtered for fast food nuggets. Believe me they mince and feed you everything on that chicken including the fat and skin. It’s the same with fish. The oceans are poisoned with Mercury. Remember the Mercury warnings? They don’t tell you that anymore. Its worse now. Now its oil, radiation and what ever else they dump in the ocean. Don’t you ever believe that they care because they don’t. Its all about their profit margin. Remember when you could trust the producers of food. Well don’t! Look at all the over weight people from eating McDonald’s, Burger King, Kentucky Fried Chicken and Wendy’s limping around this country. Believe me, No one cares!
Do you know the name, phone number and address of the Bastard that did this? If anybody knows it, post it here or on Twitter..
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is warning that the
prescription smoking cessation medicine Chantix (varenicline) can change
the way people react to alcohol. In addition, rare accounts of seizures
in patients treated with Chantix have been reported. We have approved
changes to the Chantix label to warn about these risks. Until patients
know how Chantix affects their ability to tolerate alcohol, they should
decrease the amount of alcohol they drink. Patients who have a seizure
while taking Chantix should stop the medicine and seek medical attention
immediately. Millions of Americans have serious health problems caused by smoking,
which can be reduced by quitting. Chantix is a prescription medicine
that is FDA-approved to help adults quit smoking. In clinical trials,
Chantix increased the likelihood of quitting smoking and “staying quit”
for as long as 1 year compared to treatment with a placebo, an inactive
treatment.
To make a long story short... STOP eating at McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, all the new cholesterol grease pits and especially that Chicken swill pit with the picture of the old guy on the front... If it helps to stay away, think of all the chemicals they put in the food to make it taste better... It could be very addicting...
Modern industrialization is no longer about steam power, ocean ships, and railways. It's about herd immunization, the mass drugging of our population, and the industrialized production of cheap, storable food. We've ended up with an entire society getting sicker and sicker while the industrial powers get richer and richer. What were once considered farfetched conspiracy theories are now being shown to be stark irrefutable realities. Serious illnesses have been on a steep incline since the number of mandated vaccines has skyrocketed (starting with infants within their first hours of life) coupled with the advent of GMO foods since the mid 1990's. But if anyone dares question these remarkable correlations then they are labeled anti-science and ignorant. We used to brag that we had the most remarkable healthcare system in the world, the last example of a great private healthcare system. Now we are waking up to the fact that we don't have a private system, we have a pharmaceuticalized ... Written by Jeff Hays
What you are doing is making the rich, richer.. How much will it cost for the car? How much will it cost to charge the battery in your garage? If your electric bill is $200 a month for a 3 bedroom house how much more will it be to charge the car?.. You do know there is a gas engine in that car also… How long will it run with a charge or without a charge? How long will it take to charge? How much will it cost to install a special plug in your garage to do it? Depending on how much you use it I can see a $2000 monthly bill for electricity.. Remember they will stick it to you any way and as much as they can….The way I see it and figure it out it will cost you more to run the electric car….You won’t be alive long enough to make any difference, then it won’t matter anyway…How about insurance? Never mind I’ll keep my Mustang… I’ve had to 130 mph then it shifts it to 5th gear…
This picture was taken around the time Mark Spitz won 3 gold metals in the Olympics… I don’t remember the year but I thought that it was cool so I grew a mustache. I kept it for years mainly because my Grandfather had one… I have recently shaved. I look different.. In this picture we were at the VFW in Windsor Locks Conn. for a function for Ann’s father.. Note the long hair and Steve McQueen sun glasses in my pocket. My God I thought I was so cool..
This is the expanded version of a response to someone who sent me a Facebook message after I made this comment on a local newspaper page showing me statistics and numbers about other country's that condone medical marijuana...Sorry but I get a little upset when people with no brains try to bullshit me....
Yes, its common knowledge and common sense that tells me if I smoke cigarettes or marijuana the noxious fumes and chemicals will shorten my life span…The human lungs were designed to breath normal air. Not the poisonous fumes and chemicals that come from marijuana or cigarettes. I don’t need statistics and numbers to tell me that. Why do I need to get high by smoking marijuana? I like myself and I love life and everything about it...Why do you need to suck this cancer into your lungs? For pain? That’s as good excuse as any. Take an aspirin you moron...When you are 60. If you live that long? You will be the smelly, pale old man with emphysema holding on to a green oxygen tank riding around Walmart on that electric handicap cart spending your welfare check. Any Politician that would vote to make this poison legal does not care about you or the young people that will someday smoke this garbage. Those officials like our Governor from Connecticut are corrupt and not saying why they would vote to let this happen but I know its always about the money. Somewhere along the line its self interest that motivates these Bastards. And the comment about other country's? I don’t care what goes on in other countries they can all smoke themselves to death or blow themselves up! This is America! My Grandkids live here and I don’t want them turning into drug addicts like you or people like you….

Because of over population and driver licenses being issued to all illegal immigrants driving will only be permitted on odd or even days. Your license plate number will be used to determine if its your day to drive. If caught driving on the wrong day a one year mandatory jail sentence and a $10,000 dollar fine will be issued.

I have been thinking about the “back when” theme.. I like that.. I run out of stuff to say but that’s OK. The thing is I have to stop complaining and show some of my memories.. This is a picture from my wedding.. My wife Ann died of Cancer when she was 64. I wasn’t married to her at the end but we were the best of friends.. I miss her. The 20 years we were married we went through some tough times with some drug sick kids but we survived.. This is not sad excuse story. We had wonderful times together and the memories I have of us are golden…She was not only a beautiful woman but was charming person…
Not to long ago at one time I was a little kid.. We all were little kids.. I miss back then.. I was small. Innocent…. Now, years later there is a feeling of loneliness and I miss things.. I miss the old town I lived in, the people, my friends. I have discovered you can visit but you can never go back.. Yes, you can go back to the town but everything is changed. All the buildings I knew are gone. The people are gone.
It seems like things changed over night. It even smells different… I’m at an age now where you start thinking about genes and health.. I’m so blessed when it comes to that.. It seems like yesterday that I was going to the Catholic school in my little town.. I remember that, like it was yesterday…We try so hard to hang on to what we have but it still changes. The people we knew, our parents, even the material things. Everything changes. The older you get, the time moves faster and faster. Now it seems you don’t have time to enjoy, even a moment anymore. You put up imaginary fences and walls to keep out the bad guys and thoughts but some always manage to slither through.. These days its hard to tell the difference between the good and the bad. I feel sad because there are a lots of innocents that will never be the same again. I do everything I can to live and let live but I have a compassion for those who I know that will never be able to live what I consider normal life. They will never have what I had and still have… At times I worry but under the surface there is a peace and understanding, a subtle happiness that I have earned through the years.. That I will never lose.. I wait now, patiently with a content and a comfortable feeling to be voided out.....
Hollywood and fame strip these kids of their morals and dignity.. Its been going on for years.. Lack of parental supervision when an agent takes over then the almighty dollar and the craving of the adoration of an audience leads drug use and a willingness to do and say anything to get what they think is missing from their lives..
Morbid yes.. bear with me please.. How about actors and actress's that had it all and lose their life using drugs and alcohol by overdosing or committing suicide.. You could go back 10 or 20 years maybe saying no matter who you are or what you have...don't use drugs....
When it snows, especially when there is freezing rain mixed in, everyone needs to go really fast.. 100, 120 MPH.. Make sure to be talking and texting on your cell phone while going fast during an ice or snow storm…You can fly over the snow and icy spots... Its also important to zigzag between slower drivers and to follow them close, less than one car length.. Turn off all lights so you can surprise other drivers. Pass trailer trucks and cars on the right and left coming as close as possible. Follow the trucks really close when you see snow on the back of the trailer.. The more snow the better.. Speed is very important so when it snows go really fast….
Recycling... Not to long ago I took ride on my bike to the recycling center in Suffield Conn. Its a huge facility that receives the garbage from the surrounding communities. Those big garbage trucks you see a few times a week on your street back into these places and dump their load onto conveyor belts to be separated by workers (humans) and sent to different places in this huge trash factory . For example, plastic with plastic, aluminum with aluminum and glass with glass. The rest of the trash like paper and other things is sent to a special place in this factory. In other words nothing is actually thrown away. Everything is, to put it bluntly, recycled...I wonder who paid to build these places and who works there? Another question here is who is making money on the things you throw away? I seen freight car loads of shredded aluminum and plastic going somewhere...They want you to separate this stuff. Why? Do you separate your trash and garbage for them? Do you get paid for doing this? Why, do you do this if someone does for you?
“I Could Have Been a Rock Star”
If I knew, just some of what I know now when I was a young man I would have become a Rock Star…Wait, don’t say anything yet or “Jump to conclusions.” Dad used to say that last part… I did play the electric guitar for a while when I was in my late teens and early 20s. I started to get good until I had finger problems. I had and still have Reynaud’s Disease, a circulatory problem and because of ulcerated finger tips I had to stop playing. Two major operations, two weeks in intensive care, two months in the hospital and a year later my disease was under control but I couldn’t play anymore. My finger tips were healing and very tender. The calluses were gone. I was afraid if I tried, the finger problem would return and I didn’t want to go through all that hospital stuff again or risk losing a finger or two…These days I always enjoy thinking that if I threw caution to the wind, made different decisions and worked really hard at overcoming the finger problems I could have been a success at playing with a band. I did have two friends who were singer musicians and they had hit records. If I only put myself in the right place with these guys at the right time and really had the guts and determination to pursue this line of work. I mean it would have been a job after all. I think and I am almost sure I could have played for a major Rock Band. Today when I hear the lead guitar for Guns N’ Roses, Journey, The Stones or of the any the big name groups from a few years ago. I get goose bumps. I know the cords and beat, the strumming technique and the timing. I can feel the energy of the crowd. I can actually feel myself playing lead or back up guitar with the crowd roaring…Its like I’m there…. Its an unbelievable feeling… I could cry when I think of what I could have done if I stayed healthy…..
Comment ....I wrote this piece on September 3, 2011 for Live Journal and reread it just the other day. Yesterday morning I was talking to someone about what they call "a series of events". Like what would I be doing now if I did this or that. What if I made the decision to talk to someone or not talk to someone. What happens when I make the decision not to go somewhere or to go somewhere. Like the right choices or the wrong choices...Each decision we make through out our lives could change the coarse of our lives...Knowingly or unknowingly we could, without the proper guidance, "live or die"...Well, I guess I made the right decisions, some questionable but for the most part the right choices through out my life....But what if I went in the other direction? What if one of my friends pulled some strings and I landed a job as a guitar player for a rock group. Where would I be today? Would drugs have taken over my life? We won't know that but what really prompted me to go in a different direction? I was just over (cured) of a serious illness but I was a defiant young man. Sort of a risk taker....Was it fate? What is fate? What was guiding me? Do you think my fate was predetermined? Through the years I have often wondered why I am still healthy and why I am really here. Today I no longer ask that question. I just go along in life with what ever is asked of me...I know, I know you want a Dad quote...Lorenzo sometimes you have to just "Grin and bear it"....
It took 87 days to fix The BP oil leak in the gulf of Mexico, a thousand years to recover from the damage it caused…Isn’t it interesting that they can have the camera there to monitor the leak but they can’t fix it….Its like having cameras everywhere to watch us but they can’t stop crime…It just never freaking ends.
Its funny... they dress up like clown's in their camouflage clothes with duck blinds as protection. It kind of reminds me wanna-be solders that are cowards. Put them some where the game can kill them or someone that can shoot back.. Give me a break, think about it "A Duck"? OMG it "goes quack, quack, please don't shoot me sir, I won't bite you".. These guys are just another bunch of losers that will end with a short life span...Hey, the truth is the truth.. They better go home to check what their wives are doing? Maybe with a real man? Think about it....
Now, a little bit of some, “Words that make you think“…I was talking to a friend of mine who just happens to be Catholic priest about God and a the mystery of a strength greater than myself. I asked him about the connection of God and the church and a drug addict or an alcoholic who has denied God but now needs a power greater than him or her self to stay clean or stop drinking. He said “Lar, The people who go to church every Sunday are afraid to go to Hell. The people who ask God to help them stay clean and sober have already been there“. “That’s the difference“…I still have goose bumps….
I sorry this EM is so intense but the one you sent me was the, "Straw that broke the Camels back“. I can’t imagine what ever possessed you write something like that? You and I haven’t been a we for many years. I haven't thought about you for a long time except for when you, ------- read on you will get the point... Does what you did to me bother you so much that you are still troubled after all these years? Don’t answer that! That was a rhetorical question and you would only lie and deny it. I was going ignore you like I would any lowlife troll but after considerable thought but with some curiosity I wanted to remind you of what really happened and give you my opinion of what you did. I mean the truth is the truth and you sometimes blank things out. It’s pretty clear to me this is what you did.
When I first met you at Bobby’s Restaurant You attracted me with those sexy eyes but sleeping with and having sex with that Nigger from the junk yard on Scantic Rd. Wanna talk about Ghetto? Now that’s the pot calling the kettle black! Sorry, I slipped, that Black man. Did your Grandmother and Mom know that? Better still, does that wonderful husband of yours know that? Please don’t say you were just confused! That is so boring.. Oh, and I also know about most of those tiny secret indiscretions with guys that we both know. Those guys you don‘t think I know about. Sorry but its to lengthy to go in to. You were quite the girl though. Really mixed up and confused I guess..
Anyways, I didn’t know this at the time but I’m the kind of guy that likes to save losers, hey, that’s who I am, been doing that for years now, so at the time I felt sorry for you, now give me a break.. I was lonely, coming from a sexless marriage and only sober for 2 years and thought I could save the world. By the way, I’ve been sober now for 37 years now. You were a test for me and it looks like I passed.
Actually, call me superficial but it was those really great blowjobs and your big tits that (sucked me in), << good choice of words huh. Well, to be honest, swallowing my cum helped. To this day I still remember fondly how you licked, wet and sucked my balls then sucked my cock dry, swallowing every drop then looking up at me with those sexy eyes and that innocent smile, licking you lips. In fact, that is the only good memory I have of you. I guess that’s a guy thing.. I’ve had better cock suckers since but you are still on my top 10 list. Now that is something to be proud of because there have been many…
Moving on here… Remember before you met me you had a baby and gave it away. Do you remember when you gave up your Daughter? Do you contact her these days to tell her what a wonderful life you have?… Does your hubby know that you have a daughter out there somewhere? Oh, that beautiful woman I was with when I dropped off Nicky off that night was a Saint who helped me get over you.. You forgot about that didn’t you? But I digress…
On to cute Chaussy or what ever her name was.. Nice try bringing her home and getting her to get me alone at night like that.. She tried twice after you went to bed.. The first time I told her no. Second time a few weeks later she got on her knees between my legs and well I think you get the picture.. I succumbed to her charms because I knew what you were doing.. Her eyes rolled back and she swallowed my cum also. After it was over she begged me not to tell you.. I love the way she licked her lips after. She didn't quite make the top 10 but she was good...I’ll bet she never told you about that. You send someone on mission and then she doesn't tell you what really happened. I’ll bet you even trusted her.. She lived with you for a while after, didn’t she? OK, I know I have this blow job fetish. There is something about a pretty young girl on her knees that turns me on.. I’m 76 years old now and it still happens. They still love to suck me off. OK, it takes a little longer to cum but they try harder and I love that they work so long and hard.
However this is not about me. You lied and cheated ((hickey’s all over your neck, telling me you got mugged in the stair well)) I never ever believed you. You hooked up with a drunk who beat you. Now that’s a good choice.. By the way, he’s dead now! Overdosed or drank himself to death a few years later.. Remember when you tried to come back and I threw your cheating, lying, ass out.. Names? Shrinks? I never sent you names of anybody. I dumped you! Plus that really horrible snoring was the frosting on the cake... Like I said, Loser..
So here you are now from Montville Ct. (loserville) writing me 30 years later telling how happy you are, saying things and making decisions about me that you know nothing about. I’m telling you here >>>> Mind your own business, “you bimbo“. Not my words, someone I told about you, described you like that.. They asked why I got hooked up with you and I told them I felt sorry for you…Well, I still pity you and I do pray for you.. Don’t write to me again and mind your own business or I promise I will make it my mission in life to show this to that wonderful husband of yours and the past will really come back to haunt you…
P.S. I'm so sorry, I know this is intense and I'm not really mad. I'm just glad I was able to get that off my chest. Now I feel better.....Thank you...
Its one of those days that I sit here and look at the little blinking line on the word processor. Sometimes its a challenge to come up with something interesting to write about. Lets face it. By choice, I live a very, I’ll never say boring life. More like, “Laid back” are the right words. I could write about the past but nothing brilliant comes to mind…I could write about the future but lets face it, we really don’t know what’s going to happen in the next minute. Here's Proof read on...... I was thinking yesterday afternoon on the way home in the wind and rain that I was almost home safely. Wait, I thought, not really. I was 2 miles from home and approaching an intersection and I thought what if someone goes through the red light and broadsides my car? No, I made it through the light but did slow down and I looked both ways first. Then I thought, as I was driving by a convenience store. What if someone with a gun comes out shooting and inadvertently fires at my car as I’m driving by? No, that didn’t happen…..I then glanced in the rear view mirror and thought what if someone rear ended me in an out of control Toyota a 100 miles an hour. Nobody was behind me. A mile to go and I thought as I was driving down my tree lined street in the wind and rain, what if a tree limb broke on one of these huge trees and went through my windshield. Nope, not today….Now I’m a half mile from home and I thought what if someone is shooting at cars from one of these homes, because of anger “Sniper style” and randomly shoots at me? Didn’t happen….Wow, I was turning into my drive way safe at last but wait, what if there is a terrorist in my building with a bomb? Well, I won’t go into that……Laid back or boring? Life in this country is one day at a time. Are you in control of your life or is that Higher Power in the LJ question the other day sort of watching over things? I happen to think I wasn’t in control yesterday. I was 2 miles from home and well, you know what I mean………

After extensive and urgent investigations by the FBI, CIA, NSA, MI6 and the
Massachusetts State Police it has been confirmed by inside sources that the
Obama administration paid the NFL referee who inspected Sunday's Patriots
game foot balls to release 2 psi of air from 11 of 12 footballs.
Sources also say that this was to give the major news media something to
talk about lest they discover some problems with the "it's all wonderful"
state of the union address.
Absent from the mainstream media are worries about:
* the Nation's $18 Trillion debt;
* the continuous war that we are in;
* the Right to Life March;
* the open border available to terrorist, measles carriers and future democrats;
* the still undisclosed lies about Benghazi gate and Fast and Furious gate;
* the once strong, now forgotten, Constitution;
* and our gutless Congress. (What are they waiting for?)
Don't worry. It's all under control - there control that is!
I went to the Super Market yesterday and while waiting in the line I call the, "Compulsive spender aisle", its the aisle located just before the cash register and they make you pass through there to wait before paying. I noticed one of those New York gossip rags with the headline "Son of Sam speaks". I started to think about what is going on in this country with the all the murders and shootings. Its like this newspaper and others like it, if you can call them that, want something to happen. Who cares what this Bastard has to say? Yet someone will actually spend money to read what this monster said. I will never understand that.. These newspapers know that maybe someone reading what this freak has to say will be encouraged to copy these psychopaths, thinking that they can get away with murder. I don't know but I think its because these nutcases think they are smarter. They always show the most shocking and insane things on the TV news? They are constantly reshaping our cultural values. The young people of today are, for the most part not being taught at home or in school anymore. Look at the bullying epidemic for example. Years ago kids learned by limit setting and their parents example. Today it’s the murderer or shooter as they call him, the drug addict movie star or singer or some other twisted thing on Facebook or YouTube. Young minds see these things and guess what? Right, without the right supervision kids will try anything. The next thing you know they are on the local news and you are saying. "Awww isn’t that a shame, I knew that kid, he was so nice...

Who said Problem??? For who? Do you mean people can buy gas or heat their homes and be warm and not feel dirty or like they have been raped at the pump? People can buy a half gallon of milk instead a quart. Do you mean people can feed their kids a nutritious diet? Do you mean people can eat at a real restaurant instead of that fast food swill? Do you mean people can have a few dollars in their pocket at payday? What really happened was they ran out of room to store those giant stacks of $1000 bills. They finally realize or someone told them that you cannot build a coffin big enough to take it with you.. That’s what happened… “Lawmakers”, I love the way they say Lawmakers.. The LAWMAKER should say out loud that they won’t hurt the people by raising taxes. He should say reduce the gas and heating oil tax so PEOPLE can eat… Governor, that’s a joke Right? This Governor has always been about himself. Our (((Lawmakers?))) are hurting innocent people and THEY don’t care about you… Its always been and will be always about Self-Interest….

This note is to anyone asking me to play a “Game on Facebook“! Thank you for asking but I don’t play online games. In the past computer games were fun and I have almost 5 million of those worthless tokens on Pogo. Now, all these game sites are used to gather personal information on you to sell to someone or to sell you something. I will not be a part of this nonsense. I have a Nintendo DS and I will go to a Game Stop store to buy and trade games in if I need any…Its very inexpensive and much more fun. I prefer to keep a low profile and the less these greedy bastards and morons know about me the better it is…I don’t watch TV programs or news and haven’t in four months (a new record) and as a result I don’t see any of the ads or commercials… Lately the Network internet pages are coming with pop-ups and talking ads…I don’t go to those sites anymore! I delete all the cookies on my computer 5 times a week. I will only buy what I need and only if I need it. To show me a commercial or ad is a waste of your money and my time…. If I do happen to see an ad I will go out of my way to tell people NOT to but the product. In fact I will tell people its bad just create doubt so they won‘t buy it…If something I have is broken or doesn't work I will fix it rather than buy a new one…I could go on and on…I said all this before in past posts…Anyway, thank you for asking but no thank you I don't play games.
Lately I have been watching Military movies "American Sniper" Has the Military lifted the ban a facial hair? I'm ex-Military police. Yes, it was a long time ago but if you didn't shave you had a problem. What is going on in these movies. Yes I was dead on bulls-eye at 500 yards with an M-1 30 cal rifle case you were wondering. What about the facial hair?
Yesterday Cathy and I went to “Trader Joes” in Warwick R.I. When we got there we needed gas so we stopped in one of those Super Market need your shopping card to buy gas places.. I won’t say the name because I really don’t like, nor do I condone “Ads” or any kind or advertising anywhere. I know I said “Trader Joes” but I really like that place. I got out of the car, walked over and looked up and said “pump 8” to an odd looking hanging microphone and a drawer opened and I put a twenty dollar bill and the card in the sliding drawer, actually it was her card with a $20 dollar bill. The drawer slid closed and 5 seconds later the drawer opened with the card only and I heard a cranky male voice behind the one way glass say, “Thank you”. When this was all over it was the first time in 5 years I only paid $2.07 a gallon for gas.
Another first is, it snowed today where I live in Pawcatuck Connecticut for the first time since last February …We got 3 inches of snow…
I loved both of my Parents and Grandparents. They guided me through the pitfalls of life until I could find my own way with comfort and dignity. I have and use everyday the Rock Maple dresser that my Grandmother had since 1900. I still have and use my Dad's battery operated "Shave Man" shaver and I use my Mom's silverware and some of her dishes everyday. The memories are priceless. To this day I have an Oval Empire school picture of my Uncle Lorenzo (my namesake) hanging in a prominent place on the wall in my house. He was my Dad's brother who drowned in 1910 when he was 13 years old in the canal basin in my old home town. He looks just like me at that age.. When ever I move its the first thing I put in the car to go with me...
On and on it goes... America is not a country anymore its become a business... The wars and greed gets thicker in Obama's new America. It can't last forever...How long will it be before it implodes? Obama's Illinois sly sneaky grins and winks will fade away. The question is? Is it too late? Have you become one of Obama's new clones? No, not one of those plastic human like machines on the Si-Fi channel or in the movies, not scientifically made but the kind made from your new environment. From now on or at least for a little while there is no middle class! You are ether rich or you are poor. Now you suffer or you don’t. For the poor, rage and anger are the new attitudes. Death, Fear and Terrorism are the norm. For the rich, they just don’t care. There is no in-between. The majority of you have now been programmed and coerced into buying anything they are selling because of instant gratification and because they say you need to have it. Your freedom of choice is literally gone. You are doing these things automatically now. Your corrupt Illinois President and all your corrupt leaders in Washington are bought and paid for by the oil company's greed and big business. You are all blind or have been blinded to what is going on around you. You see and hear only what they want you to see and hear when they want you to see it and hear it. Everywhere you go, what ever you do. Whether its watching TV, being at the airport, buying food at the store, talking on your cell or just driving down the street. They know what you are doing, where you are and when you are doing it. They are watching and listening to you all the time. You have now become a statistic. You are just a number, a bar code. If you are too young to spend money they don’t need you. If you are old, you have become a throw away that is too expensive to take care of. They are slowly taking away your food stamps (SNAP) and health benefit's so you will die. Your peace of mind and serenity have been manipulated into buying material things and for the most part your freedom of choice has been taken away. They continue to lie and say everything is OK and you really believe them... They want you to think that drugs and alcohol are to have a good time and not addictive. They don’t care because all they want is for you to do spend money. That is what its all about. You are officially living in a very sick society and have been for a while now....
Did you know it takes more energy to ignore someone than it does to stop and say hello? Did you know that the space it takes in your brain could be used for something more useful? Its a constant battle to force the negative thoughts out and think of more positive things. All it takes is one accidental meeting to trigger a few days bad thoughts. I seen my oldest son yesterday. The irony is, It was his birthday. He hasn’t spoken to me in a few years and I kind of know why but I really don't because it could be ironed out with a little understanding. He chooses to keep the issues and anger locked inside of him. This will only provoke him to use drugs in the future. Resentment has always been one of his biggest problems. Not with me but with everyone and everything. This young man has had problems since he was a child. He was a problem child in school when he was very young. It is called "Oppositional defiant". I am kind of clipping this short because it is such an old story that its tiring for me keep on thinking or writing about it. I write about this now because of yesterday and only to get rid of it today. He was the biggest contributor to the break up of my family years ago. The drugs, D.W.I.s, anger and the all the institutions and half-way houses finally led to 15 years of being clean and some father, son happiness. Then he started to drink and use drugs again. That led to crack and all the slime that goes with it. Again D.W.I.s and prison. He lost the house on a mountain top and his beautiful wife and kids. Along with that his business and the BMW. When I seen him yesterday sitting in Wal-Mart eating that Subway grinder I walked over to shake his hand and say Happy Birthday, he wouldn't even do that. I walked away laughing. That was my defense kicking in...I walked to an empty isle to calm down. It was pitiful and so sad...That's the story and when I write it down, it looks like I don't any problems, he does.....Wow, see it works...
The battleground between the political and ideological forces of right and left in the U.S. can be exhausting for everyone else, says Brian Neal, financial adviser at Hefty Wealth Partners in Auburn, Ind. “Our society is getting a little nervous watching the tug of war going on in Washington,” he says. This was brought home by the shutdown in the federal government for 16 days last October, he adds. If people are not happy with whoever occupies the White House, it’s easier to move if they can afford it. President Obama has an approval rating of 43.2% for his 22nd quarter in office, less than Ronald Reagan (64%) and Bill Clinton (61.6%) at the same time, according to a Gallup poll released last month, but more than 35.8% for George W. Bush and 26% for Richard Nixon.
There have been many things.. Success in the Military Police National Guard for 6 years. I had great job as airport Electrician at Bradley Int. airport for 20 years. I was a Career employee of the Federal Government at the Subase hospital in Groton Connecticut for 3 years and for the past 4 years I have been a vegetarian. But by far the best achievement to date for sure is that I been Sober, without a drink or a substitute for 38 years and I have never been so grateful for anything in my life.. That alone is a miracle..
I was about a half hour early for a meeting this morning so I stopped under the Gold Star bridge on Route 95 in Groton Connecticut and took a few pictures of that huge span and the Thames river in the rain with my Sony 10x DSC-120 Digital Still Camera...Its a versatile camera capable of making UTube videos and High definition pictures.. Its pocket size and I take it everywhere. Its perfect for what I do. Its very interesting to hear the roar of the Holiday traffic from under that thing.. I'll post the pictures on my page this week or next week some time.. ..
If this was Northern Ireland in the late 60’s through the 90’s without the cell phones and cameras the Army and Swat Police would be beating and killing these people right now…
I moved to the shoreline of Connecticut in August of 2008. Lately I have been able to withdraw into myself to think deep thoughts about my fate in the not to distant future.
With the help of my God, it is so peaceful and calming I don’t believe it myself. The miracle of letting go of the past and the willingness to be alone. Getting old is a one time experience that I have been blessed to accept with grace and happiness. I don’t worry about the unknown or what happens.. What ever the future holds for me I have a confidence that I will be peaceful and content.. I accept that..
Not to long ago at one time I was a little kid.. We all were.. I miss back then.. I was small. Innocent…. Now, years later there is a feeling of loneliness and I miss things.. I miss the old town I lived in, the people, my friends. Lately I have discovered you can visit but you can never go back.. You can go back to the town but everything is changed. The buildings are gone. It seems like things changed over night. It even smells different… I’m at an age now where you start thinking about genes and health.. I’m so blessed when it comes to that.. It seems like yesterday that I was going to the Catholic school in my little town.. I remember that like it was yesterday…We try to hang on to what we can but it still changes. The people we knew, our parents the material things. Everything changes. The older you get the time moves faster and faster. Now it seems you don’t have time to enjoy a moment anymore. You put up imaginary fences and walls to keep out the bad guys and thoughts but some manage to slither through.. These days its hard to tell the difference between the good and the bad. There are a lots of innocents that will never be the same again. I do everything I can to live and let live but I have a compassion for those who I know will never be able to live, what I consider normal life. They will never have what I had and still have… At times I worry but under the surface there is a peace and understanding, a subtle happiness that I have earned through the years.. That I will never lose.. I wait now with a content and a comfortable feeling to be voided out..
Back to basics and start over.. Start with a different place to live.
Don’t Ever Become a Keyword because you were involved in or did something bad because till the end of your existence you will be held responsible. You guessed it! I have some new keywords…
There are a lot of Samsung Galaxy S3 errors and problems reported by users online and one of them is the occasional shutting down of the device with no apparent cause. Many users reported this problem reached its peak shortly after the rollout of Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean update. According to them, there is no telling it when their phone shuts off and there seemed to be no apparent trigger to such behavior.
Relative to this issue are the cases of some users who reported they also experienced occasional reboots. Their Samsung Galaxy S3 reportedly freezes, shuts down and turns itself on again. It does not happen often but the time it does, it would take a few minutes before users can actually use their device again. That’s a bad shot whenever someone calls you or you’re calling someone; you may be cut off while you are in the middle of the conversation.
Considering this problem occurred after the update, there is a greater possibility it is software-related. Now here are some ways that have been proven to be effective in resolving this issue.
First Solution
When your Galaxy S3 shuts down, take out the battery and let your device sit without a power for 10 minutes. That should be enough to drain some energy stored in its capacitors and semiconductors.
After 10 minutes, re-insert the battery and turn your phone on again. This solution is really that simple but proven effective. So, before you actually do something far more serious with your device due to occasional reboot or shut off, do this solution first and see if it works.
Second Solution
From the Home screen tap on Menu button on the left side of the Home button.
Choose Settings among other options and choose About phone.
Tap on Software Updates to manually initiate search for available updates for your phone. It might just be the thing you need to fix this issue. After all, manufacturers are always listening to their consumers to know what the problems are with their device. In Android, updates are often the carrier of bug fixes.
Third Solution
In case the issue wasn’t resolved with the first two solutions presented above, backup all your important data, settings, SMS messages, etc and get ready to reset your device.
Tap on Menu from the Home screen and choose Settings.
Choose Backup and Reset. You can back your data up using this option or you can do the manual way.
Select Factory Data Reset.
Now tap on Reset Device followed with Delete All.
It may take a few seconds but after that, you need to Reboot your phone to give it a fresh start. Your device has now been restored to its factory state.
If the problem persists after doing all of these solutions, it may be the time you contact your provider to have your device checked by a technician and replaced if necessary. At least, you have exhausted all possible workarounds to solve this problem.
There is a new phenomenon in this country…New Laws are being made that circumvent existing laws to fit the crimes of the politicians, the rich and famous or anybody that fits certain profiles. I will give you an example. In doing my research, yes, I do research. I have read and seen this happen, down through the years. The same crimes, lesser penalties. Special prisons for certain criminals. Years ago if you were a foreigner. Are you ready for this? You were deported if you committed a crime. Try that now. I think everyone guilty of committing a crime belongs in a Federal or State prison. Nothing in the middle. Do you want to save a few bucks? Close all those country club jails. Send the so-called white collar criminals (woman Included ) to a real prison with no special privileges. I think a few years with a bunkmate named Bubba or Abdul will help deter future crimes from that individual. More importantly the crimes committed by our politicians should be exposed immediately and the suspect sent to his home state until the problem is rectified. No press conferences whining about the miscarriage of justice they are being accused of. If you put yourself in a position for bad things to happen it usually does. The idea is when you are elected by the people and sent to Washington you to try to represent the people fairly and be a decent human being by setting an example for the good people of this country…It would also be a good idea to stop the lawyers from running this country and give it back to the people.
