2. comment removed because i said that retirees in florida are super intellectual.

ON UNREQUITED AND LOST LOVES
in the movie, "The Dead" which is from "the dubliners" by james joyce, angelica huston plays joyce's wife and at the end is deeply troubled when recalling the loss of an early love. she also had lots to drink probably helping her into this state of mind.
actor james dunn also drunk playing the piano and singing, "annie laurie", in, "a tree grows in booklyn". dorothy mcguire clearly realizes that there was an unforgettable woman somewhere in his past.
in mr. holland's opus jean louisa kelly sings, "someone to watchover me". poignant moment. when mr. holland's wife, in the audience, is seen understanding that there is a relationship she can be concerned about between her husband and kelly. she shouldn't worry because he knows it will not fly. men have some brains (in their head).
french lieutenant's woman i teared up when meryl streep and jeremy irons finally consummated their love. the sexual tension was unbearable.
my unrequited love occurred when i was six years old with barbara next door on Kelly street and her friend, the irish girl (thats all i remember, "the irish girl".

finally, i went to kim jong il's barber shop for a haircut. haven't been there for many a moon as i've patronized other places searching for a good fast haircut. much to my surprise the place is in other hands. there was no one there i had ever seen before, i think. they must have been there for quite awhile as the conversation with other customers seemed friendly and familiar. anyway, in about two weeks my hair will grow back. right now i look like a river-kwai pow.

on my rounds yesterday i stopped off at target for some stuff and discovered why we are in recession. surprise! surprise! the cause of the recession is that cheap bastard american businesses do not hire enough people. the checkout lines were long; prices were mismarked; and the price scanners on the floor did not work. i'm sure everything is working properly in baghdad.
all this is encouraged by wall street toadies and congressional and government policies.

THINKIN' ANCIENT 20TH CENTURY
today i'm sorta obsessed with watching youtube movies and music from 1920 thru the 1945 (hitler bunker events).
a couple of observations comparing our time (i think):
1. germany was in very bad economic condition and was humiliated by wwl peace agreements while we are now affluent and in our own peace.
2. nazis sorta' started in roughly 1923 and didn't really flex their stupid greed 'til roughly 1933.
3. trump and thugs can be turned out within two to four years, never to be seen again.
4. our judiciary can save us if gorsuch or other questionable supreme court justice doesn't sink us.
5. 1920s german popular music gives little indication of what was to come.
6. hitler was so nuts he thought the cyanide pills given to him in the bunker were fake. sounds familiar.
nevermind, bye.

REHASHED POST IV
DR. STEVE, U. S. DEFENSE DEPT. GENIUS AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE WEDGE
for thirty years dr. steve worked on the development of the door wedge. his concept of the wedge developed over many years supported of course by tax payer money.
in the beginning he tried bowling balls but found they rolled away from the door. the mathematics of his findings can be found in his technical report, NON-LINEAR FRICTION ANALYSIS. later on he tried blocks of ice which melted and also slipped away from the door. almost successful was the use of computer hard drives but the exposed circuitry scratched the floor. he finally came up with a triangular shaped rubber device.
unfortunately he found out from the office typist that he was only 45000 years late. so close. beaten out by a neanderthal man in a cave.
his boss said that the U. S. DEFENSE DEPT. is always seeking new and innovative methods and he provides the environment for scientific inquiry and growth. he praised dr. steve for his harvard-like new england accent and for always carrying a manila folder around when not at his desk.
although given a high framed meritorious award and money he was depressed, became an alcoholic and died in an officer's club restroom being consoled and held by a skanky officer's wife. life was not worth continuing. visions of fame in the scientific community vanished. so sad.

PRE ELECTION DEAL
Flynn discussed sanctions with Russian envoy before Trump took office, officials say
they have fine tuned stealing elections since W took florida.
today the white house family is featuring attractive beijing skirts. only 157 left at a special price.
i do believe i have been sucked into some bizarre movie like a rewrite of "dr. strangelove" and the characters are even odder. i'm up to the part where general flynn says, "That's the way your hard-core Commie works. I first became aware of it, Mandrake, during the physical act of love...Yes, a profound sense of fatigue, a feeling of emptiness followed. Luckily I-I was able to interpret these feelings correctly. Loss of essence. I can assure you it has not recurred, Mandrake. Women, er, women sense my power, and they seek the life essence. I do not avoid women, Mandrake...but I do deny them my essence."

SCENES FROM MY BRONX LIFE
my dad loved fishing. on his one day off, most of the time he went on long island sound boats. fortunately for me, he rarely took me along. he awoke me early-early in the morning. (groan). first we would pick up some great coffee and sandwiches (the best part) from his store. then usually we would go over to westchester avenue (near the el) where the bronx river widened out to enter the sound and board one of the fishing boats moored there. twice we went out to long island via lirr (early, early, early in the morning) and boarded a boat there.
i know its me not you. i find fishing boring and tedious. exposure to water, the elements, the uncertainties of waterways, and the motion of the boat do less than nothing for me. tying hooks, cutting up worms or other bait and skewering it is gross. sorry dad, i just can't hack it. you're the man!
on one occasion i reeled in the day's prize fish. my dad split the prize money with a friend we were with. i'm still waiting for my share. who holds a grudge?
fishing sucks.
buxom marcia's sweet sixteen party was held at the iceland night club where the painted chorus girls were ancient, maybe 20 years old. skinny energetic lynn jumped into my lap. i threw her off of course. what else does a 15 year old kid do? at my current age, knowing of a woman's charms i may have made a mistake.

SCENES FROM MY BRONX LIFE
ball playing and stickball games flourished (on 179th between vyse and daly) in spite of a crabby old crone who kept calling the police.
my friend bernie was anxious to see sandra who lived near the post office. although he went biking to accidentally find her, he found a basketball court instead. on occasion a bunch of us went over to this distant basketball court in a playground beyond the post office, starlight park, and west farms square. we never saw sandra.
mid-teenage boys are always looking for girls. many of them don't know why but although they are stupid are very impressionable. relationships were all fantasy in my group.
on my way by bus to the grand concourse to meet cousin rita who was in from florida i encountered attractive priscilla from our elementary school on the bus. we talked on the bus but i never saw her again.
cousin rita and i have a great grandparent in common (or something). we went to radio city music hall and then talked a long time in front of her aunt's building on the grand concourse well into the summer night.
yes, there was life before death in (ugh) new jersey.
i salute the many-many great, creative, and hard working movie theater managers and their staffs thruout the bronx who provided me with great entertainment during my childhood. they operated on the smallest of margins bringing us bingo night, free dishes, vaudeville, comic books, triple features, free candy, beauty pageants, dog races w/free prizes, outdoor hot summer night exhibitions. how did they do it? many had 11 cent admissions on saturday mornings. kids would bring lunch and stay all day. moms loved it. AND MOVIES TOO.
i think these managers and their minions were truly great, hardworking people dedicated to their craft. you just can't get any good (great) help like that today.

after the war with the germanbastards and japbastards the young men came home. it took awhile for them to adjust. slowly they differentiated themselves by moving into different trades and jobs and businesses. two brothers bought the candy store on my street which seemed to be foundering. they remarkably turned it into a booming center of neighborhood commerce. they started serving a variety of fast foods and soda fountain delights. they took in a juke box and a pinball machine. a bookie set up shop in and around the store. he always amazed me by his math skills. so superior to the phd mathematicians i knew in the defense dept.
one of the brothers married a perky young lady and seemed happy. the other brother married and his lady committed suicide. i just don't know anything about people or life.

JUST A FEW OF MY WEEK'S COMMENTS - SORRY THAT ITS NOT CLEAR WHAT I'M REFERRING TO
huge p'ing contest. can white house lie bigger and better than iran and other mideast nations.
i thought we had them all in northern new jersey.
mccarthy said that in (about) 1953 when the libs destroyed him because of his alternative truth.
and this is believed in dimwit, new jersey.
tax returns?
shlomo's real name is steve bannon. he's just stirring the evil brew.
shlomo - bannon has a special bar of soap for you.
no republican dreamin' here. my family, democrats have worked continuously since they arrived in the 19th century. most these republican trumpers are a confused sorry lot.
the joad family is starting to load their truck for their trip to south america from california this time.
yea - since only trumpers think stock brokers and potus can help them their disappearance into the woods will be welcome.
i'm not arguing your points but cutting off the head of the snake can't be a bad thing - most of the time.
he's from new jersey. must be forgiven for his mental state. must be all the toxic waste there.
i'm sayin' iran. i know its a messed up world and hard to stay with one topic.

RUSSIAN OIL - REPUBLICANS LOVE IT.
i'm wondrin' what the amount of the kickback from THE exxon-mobil $14 trillion investment in russian oil fields the trump family will get (thats T-R-I-L-L-I-O-N).
1% is only 140 billion and trumpers are struggling to payoff their modest houses. 1% of the 1% is 1.4 billion. not a bad take.

i'm wondrin' what the amount of the kickback from THE exxon-mobil $14 trillion investment in russian oil fields the trump family will get (thats T-R-I-L-L-I-O-N).

ON THE VALUE OF MILITARY SPENDING
more money for defense:
being drafted was the best thing that ever happenned to me and it was the best vacation i ever had. got food, room, board, clothing and was paid every month and you don't have to think. in fact you are discouraged from thinking. there were girls at the USO and other ladies over the border in nuevo laredo.
yes - we need more money for defense - yea.
and the perks: to this very day: parking space at the supermarket, G I bill benefits (1953), extra points on tests and job seniority............

YES I'M LOST
an opinion in nyt by douthat claims hillary supported every small voter cohort except healthy, hard working people and lost. she was not inclusive. being nice to those who need help may be noteworthy but is a loser.
although a hillary supporter i've always been upset by helping the weak at the expense of others.
dump trump. he's not the answer....??????????

RIGGED
rigged.
michael moore has it right you should not over think your reaction to the election results. just do something. after all democratic votes exceeded republican votes by a preliminary million. it is really odd, improper and outrageous that all segments of govt. have fallen into the swamp of republican backward, unstable mentalities. the system and rule of law cannot be fixed right now.
you know what is right and what is wrong. our system is wrong. can we be saved?????????? who will step forward?
no one......???

MY VARIOUS BAD COMMENTS MADE ON THE INTERNET LATELY
you can lead a horse to vote against trump but you can't make it not do that.
johnson's getting a lot of attention by not knowing what aleppo is. any publicity is good. donald knows that and relies on it. johnson's numbers should rise.
i guess there aren't enough trump incredible blunders to be outraged about.
starting to think of potus as an honorary position like queen elizabeth of england. as long as donald doesn't do anything affecting the nation he's ok with me.
keep him happy by putting him in the oval office with a monopoly game and a couple of cronies and he'll be happy.
hillary can bake cookies for her grandchildren.
i'm just sayin'
trump aint going to help people who can't do the job they got.
just finished doing my own driveway (i'm 85). the guys that did it last year did a bad job.
driveway jobs must have gone to china?
on the upside of trump presidency we'll get a useless congress and supreme court to go along with a useless president.
sorry i'm a korean vet and volunteered for the draft in '53 because i wanted to get the obligation over with. it never occurred to me that i could get hurt. outside of a case of poison ivy i did ok.
don't thank me. in retrospect it was a good experience and a great vacation and i cashed in on all the benefits.
re the media silence on the pentagon penetration on 9/11: like the alamo it was an embarrassing loss. they penetrated the inner sanctum of military power in the world.
russian aggression: if they can't build a washing machine what can they do?
keeping an eye on the odds daily it looks like donalds chances are starting slightly to get worse. about 2.7 to 1 against this afternoon.
yes i know joe namath and the jets were about 18 point underdogs to the balt colts in Super Bowl iii and won.
its
bonnie and clyde clinton
or
al capone (what taxes?) trump. btw al capone went to prison because of his taxes.
mitch mcconnell for president is starting to sound good.

OF "CABBAGES AND KINGS" AND DONALD TRUMP
of "cabbages and kings" and donald trump......
my take is lewis carroll meant there is no difference between one cabbage head and another. its interesting how odd the various interpretations are. one presumably educated person on the internet said that carroll got it from shakespeare in richard iii where he said "cabbages and things". these english professors need a brain. i'm sure this is bs.
according to google "cabbages and kings" in the poem "walrus and the carpenter" is a nonsense poem. pardon me google but i think lewis carroll managed to channel and control a lot of hostility and anger toward the stupidity of human beings by his writing of the GREATEST STORIES EVER TOLD, "alice in wonderland" and "through the looking glass".
my take is that cabbages and kings means there is not much difference between a head of cabbage and the head of a nation. both are alive but a head of cabbage has a purpose.
as i walked out on my last day having worked with the incompetents at department of defense for over 30 years i thought of some of the last lines in "alice in wonderland":
`Off with her head!' the Queen shouted at the top of her voice. Nobody moved.
`Who cares for you?' said Alice, (she had grown to her full size by this time.) `You're nothing but a pack of cards!'

DUMP TRUMP
thinking of dumping trump. y'know there's nothing magic about the name "republican". you won't turn to lead if you called yourselves something else like "libertarians" or the "fatcat party". the party of lincoln is long gone and his party is a totally different thing than it was in 1860. ryan, mcconnell, and others can just rename themselves and leave trumpster by himself.
y'know george washington had no party affiliation.

MUSLIM TRUCK KILLER SORTA ANGERS ME
"Gérard Araud (born February 20, 1953) is the ambassador of France to the United States. Before that he was Permanent Representative to the United Nations, ..." on MSNBC (10 minutes ago) said several times that if the police were not busy protecting jews this would not have happenned.
i guess europe are a-holes.

pocohontas and american indian women:
in history many american indian women have proven themselves superior to white christian men. sacawagea while nursing her newborn baby led the white christian lewis and clark expedition across our country. she had enough experience and knowledge (like ummmm... foreign policy experience) with the various tribes to provide safe passage across our continent for the expedition.
i'm doing my best to inform the ignorant trump supporters...............

cnbc right now is claiming hillary will bring down biotech. sounds like bs to me. cnbc is getting to be just another propaganda arm of the worst political forces in america - land of the free.

CHICKEN HEART - I REMEMBER IT WELL
the trump story as told in 1937 by arch obeler on the radio show, lights out. and edited today.
"I tell you that mass of flesh was donald trump ..the tissue of which for some reason is undergoing constant, rapid, accelerating growth. With every passing hour its growth is doubling. Do you know what that means? If it is now one block in size, within thirty hours that cannibal flesh will have increased in size to one square block to the thirtieth power. VOICE RISES. In thirty hours every inch of this whole city will be crushed under that moving flesh. Within sixty hours it will have covered the entire state. Within two weeks the entire United States. You ask for the National Guard. I say call out the entire army. Blast this thing off the earth.

DEFENSE DEPT. SAFETY SPECS
my boss sent me to a four hour intensive session on ammunition production safety specs. the teacher sent by some outrageously priced contractor came in late.
HOUR #1 HE told a few bizarre, bigoted (mainly black and jew) jokes, drank his coffee, ate his box of donuts, adjusted his 42" belt, looked for a blackboard, chalk, took attendance, asked for a projector, waited for installation of projector, searched for electrical outlet, waited for bulb to be replaced, informed us of a rabbi's bad behavior on his holiest day, and blackpeople eating watermelon, burped, went for a pee, loosened his pants, and called for a break.
HOUR #2 after our coffee break we got down to serious work. we introduced ourselves, distributed boilerplate worksheets and textual materials (perfect for our engineers and scientists). teacher actually picked up a piece of chalk and started making diagrams, squares, and circles on the board. he then inserted a graphic into the projector which to my surprise he knew how to work. trying to stay awake i drew a variety of pictures on my worksheet.
HOUR #3 very soon teacher began complaining about hunger pangs and as happy as a pig in shit about his great presentation sent us on our way early after distributing framed certificates with our names, official imprints and signatures for course completion, he asked for directions to the cafeteria and disappeared.
now fully prepared and anxious to start my project with new and exciting information of geometric figures on a pad i returned to the office enthusiastic to write up my first safety spec to keep our nation and defenses secure. this is why we're the greatest nation on earth. yea!
armed with my complete safety instructional cookbook, canned textbook answer sheet, boilerplate worksheet, automaton like defense dept. mentality conducive to a stepford person(or sparta, new jersey) mentality, and framed certificate certifying that i was an expert in determining ammunition safety with imprimatur, raised seal and appropriate signatures i reported to my bossman's office.
the bossman said, "you have a free hand. the ball is in your court. run with it. go, go, go."
"i will. i will. i will."
"for your first assignment you will prepare a safety specification for the xm34e1 flotation fragmentation mine, flashing, rotating, decorative, auto-loading, self-actuating, really expensive device. "
"yes, sir, i'm on my way."
DEFENSE DEPT. IN ACTION
i ran to my cubicle hung my official framed, signed, and sealed certificate assuring my competence in preparation of ammunition safety specifications like the looney tunes engineer in the next cubicle who had his phd diploma tacked to his wall ... ummm ...partition thing.
and started working to save our country and support our troops.
A WEEK LATER ------------------------
me: "here it is, bossman. a comprehensive compendium of all safety requirements for this item as required by the official textual and canned materials handed down from the all-wise command."
bm: "this is only one page, double spaced."
me: "yup, thats all thats necessary. its all in there."
bm: "beef it up. i'd like at least ten pages to show my great effort and my magnificent work in this area."
me: "i've incorporated all the necessary components and requirements. its all there. what else do you want? you're the boss."
bm: "no, you're the expert. we sent you to that expensive, intensive course with doctor jonas,phd, MD, and master of bs and gave you a framed, certified, imprimatur stamped certificate with gold leaf lettering. as i said, you have a free hand. do it. do it. do it."
me: "let me understand this. you say, i have a free hand and i'm the expert?"
bm: "yup."
me: "ok, i've got it, boss. its as good as done.? see you later."
FIVE YEARS LATER - AFTER ALL THE VALUABLE STUFF THEY TAUGHT ME
me: "well, today is my last day. i'm retiring. bye."
bm: " what a coincidence, today is my last day too. i'm getting a promotion and going to the command and getting a superior performance award for my exceptional and excellent leadership and supervisory ability. by the way, weren't you completing a safety specification?
me: "oh, remember? it was completed with your superior assistance. you've been such a great help."

THE GREAT ELECTION 2016
jeb has some really annoying body language. have you noticed how he tosses his head like a skank at the officers' club? the vets in south carolina may find this arousing remembering their war experiences. these moves should win a lot of votes in south carolina. really - actually i can't remember #2 or #3 but they were irritating also.
he's tall which is a plus. the problem is his blood can't be pumped as high as his sorta' brain.
on the plus side the blue dyed grey haired ladies in south beach like him. hand holding rich people is a really good political characteristic for raising money and he's a nice boy.
his beloved bro. W is campaigning with him. i'm sure south carolina vets' children will gladly give up everything to protect him and the bush family and friends.
on the demo. side we have, bonnie and clyde barrow clinton, waiting in the wings.
like bob dole i may sleep late on election day.

RETRO DON'S POST -HEALTHCARE
ASSORTED OBSERVATIONS
1. there are absolutely no life altering events: if you are a bastard going into an experience, you will come out a bastard at the end of the experience. perhaps for some wishful thinking if you think that in dickens' christmas carol, scrooge has changed after his dream experiences you are very (har, har, har) sadly mistaken. from what i saw people become even more self centered and selfish than they were before.
2. a person next door to me at the hospital died. every day an orderly took out a pail of stuff from that room. i worried about what it contained reminding me of, snowdon's secret in catch 22. after a few days the person died. some relatives and friends took it badly -lots of heart rending sobbing, crying, and grief. they had a brief service at the person's bedside. the room was cleaned and the next ill person was moved in. the world goes on.
3. at a rehab facility: a person and his relatives who make the most noise and demand the best service can get the best attention and perks. there's nothing better than having a feeling of entitlement. a patients' visitors seemed to think nothing of helping themselves to some of my (trivial) stuff like bottled water when i wasn't around. trivial but very annoying. the patient obviously pained one night told the staff they'll be fired in the morning. most of the staff present liked the idea. the next day the event appeared to be totally forgotten.
4. i salute most of the brave healthcare workers who put up with all the crap that many sick and helpless people can deliver. if the patients weren't so pathetic there would be a bounty on their heads.
5. feeling really terrible i asked the doctor to just have a gun loaded and put one shot in the right spot on my head. he replied that that treatment was not on his list of possible treatmens so he could not comply with my request. its interesting that we shoot horses and put cats and dogs away but people must suffer outrageous demeaning and painful procedures, "we saved your remaining meaningless and useless life at incredible cost".
ANOTHER EVENTFUL HOSPITAL STAY
crumpled up in a ball of pain and illness i entered the hospital as best i could. the first words you hear tell you they'll be right with you and you should have a seat. sitting there for an eternity of suffering someone calls your name. the processing interrogation gives you hope that help will be on the way. soon you wil hear the bugle of the cavalry riding in to save you..... toot,toot,toot.........
eventually you wind up in a bed in a gown with your butt end visible to all. not too bad considering that i was present when a theatre group in the dc area mooned the audience (so clever and talented). i never want to see another show by that stupid group again. i guess that was art. my butt is not art.
somehow i know not how i got through that day but the next day i was on oxycodone, rush limbaugh's favorite med, all day.
the highlight of my stay was when my throat closed up. i could still breathe - fortunate or unfortunate depending on your point of view. no food or fluid could be swallowed. somehow the procedure for entering my stomach was easy for the medical staff but not so easy for me. anyway all they had to do (a piece of cake) was run a tube up my nose, have it bend down into my throat and eventually into my stomach. nothing to it. unfortunately the remaining space in my throat was not large enough to accomodate the tube. i can assure you that jesus, mohammed, buddha, and moses together were totally useless. you can imagine whatever you want but the spirits are of no use to me. yup, my fault.
three fun attempts at placing the life saving death tube failed which only made the nurses angry at me. eventually an eent doctor ran a tube with light and viewer into my throat and found out there was not enough space for the tube. so smart. the staff was exonerated. they did their job. not their fault. the good news was that the part of my throat which was swollen was the best part of any that could swell. yea - so lucky - i may live - or not - depending.
after about three days with my throat closed w/o food or drink except for the slow drip of poisonous expensive substances going into my arm they managed to decrease the swelling so that i could eat and drink again. a very important essential characteristic for the maintenance of human life. its in a book.
every five minutes some nurse comes in and wants you to drop your pants. i have no idea as to why? to see my transplant scar; to squeeze my transplant; my personal attractiveness; to check my you-know-what; size matters; i'm adorable; to check the tube running into a urinal (since i couldn't move); whatever?
finally after about a week the horde of doctors, nurses, and king's men declared me cured even though it was not known what was wrong with me in the first place. unfortunately the cure although not killing me left me as weak as a one year old.
completely unaware as to how weak i had become i thought (heh, heh) i would bouce back in a day or two. of course this was a typical male overestimate of ability. a total mismatch of reality to actuality. having worked with engineers i know that many of them can't put a plug into an electrical outlet but are great authorities on the physical universe. yes, i'm guilty too except i can put a plug into an outlet most of the time.
more coming. excited?

ASSORTED OBSERVATIONS
1. there are absolutely no life altering events: if you are a bastard going into an experience, you will come out a bastard at the end of the experience. perhaps for some wishful thinking if you think that in dickens' christmas carol, scrooge has changed after his dream experiences you are very (har, har, har) sadly mistaken. from what i saw people become even more self centered and selfish than they were before.
2. a person next door to me at the hospital died. every day an orderly took out a pail of stuff from that room. i worried about what it contained reminding me of, snowdon's secret in catch 22. after a few days the person died. some relatives and friends took it badly -lots of heart rending sobbing, crying, and grief. they had a brief service at the person's bedside. the room was cleaned and the next ill person was moved in. the world goes on.
3. at a rehab facility: a person and his relatives who make the most noise and demand the best service can get the best attention and perks. there's nothing better than having a feeling of entitlement. a patients' visitors seemed to think nothing of helping themselves to some of my (trivial) stuff like bottled water when i wasn't around. trivial but very annoying. the patient obviously pained one night told the staff they'll be fired in the morning. most of the staff present liked the idea. the next day the event appeared to be totally forgotten.
4. i salute most of the brave healthcare workers who put up with all the crap that many sick and helpless people can deliver. if the patients weren't so pathetic there would be a bounty on their heads.
5. feeling really terrible i asked the doctor to just have a gun loaded and put one shot in the right spot on my head. he replied that that treatment was not on his list of possible treatmens so he could not comply with my request. its interesting that we shoot horses and put cats and dogs away but people must suffer outrageous demeaning and painful procedures, "we saved your remaining meaningless and useless life at incredible cost".
ANOTHER EVENTFUL HOSPITAL STAY
crumpled up in a ball of pain and illness i entered the hospital as best i could. the first words you hear tell you they'll be right with you and you should have a seat. sitting there for an eternity of suffering someone calls your name. the processing interrogation gives you hope that help will be on the way. soon you wil hear the bugle of the cavalry riding in to save you..... toot,toot,toot.........
eventually you wind up in a bed in a gown with your butt end visible to all. not too bad considering that i was present when a theatre group in the dc area mooned the audience (so clever and talented). i never want to see another show by that stupid group again. i guess that was art. my butt is not art.

TRUMP CAN WIN IT ALL
it is said that $10 billion will be spent by politicians on the next election cycle. clearly backers expect a big profit delivered from politicians on this investment. and who is expected to pay? guess....
i'm not a trump fan BUT although he is very flawed he's the only politician who will probably not be indicted or under investigation by our ... ummm ... honorable, honest, and impartial, sorta' justice system.
unfortunately we'll have to live with some crooks, liars, weasels. money grubbers, its unavoidable.
i can now see why trump can win everything.

DR. STEVE, U. S. DEFENSE DEPT. GENIUS
for thirty years dr. steve worked on the development of the door wedge. finally finding out that it was already invented he became an alcoholic and died in an officer's club restroom. in addition, he now was older and no longer attracted the skanks at the bar in a physical way. life was not worth continuing. visions of fame in the scientific community vanished. so sad.
his concept of the wedge developed over many years supported of course by tax payer money. in the beginning he tried bowling balls but found they rolled away from the door. the mathematics of his findings can be found in his technical report, NON-LINEAR FRICTION ANALYSIS.
later on he tried blocks of ice which melted and also slipped away from the door.
almost successful was the use of computer hard drives but the exposed circuitry scratched the floor.
INVENTOR OF THE WEDGE
finally coming up with a triangular shaped rubber device he was let down and depressed upon finding he was only 45,000 years late. so close. beaten out by a neanderthal man in a cave
his boss said that the U. S. DEFENSE DEPT. is always seeking new and innovative methods and he provides the environment for scientific inquiry and growth. he praised dr. steve for his harvard-like new england accent and for always carrying a manila folder around when not at his desk.

and going brain dead
CORPORATIONS ARE PEOPLE
i must have slipped into an alternative universe, or my wardrobe sucked me into narnia or did i go through the looking glass. at any rate somehow the phrase corporations are people keeps pounding in my head. this is most bizarre and surreal. i wonder how this could have happened?
corporations are people...corporations are people...corporations are people...
i must have hit my head because this would be ridiculous. concussions and also old age cause delusions.
somehow in this time warp anomaly the supreme court must have had something to do with this and they did. y'know the supreme court is made up of old people and i wonder how reality based they are.
in this realm soylent green is people. i guess i may have gotten into the movie somehow.
sooooo, both corporations and soylent green are people. of course.

its now two years since my doctor officially declared me dead. so i fired the doctor. science is so wonderful. y'know, bumble bees can't fly.
its not that there are not enough scientists and engineers in this country, its that there are too many of them. most of poor quality. separating the "wheat from the chafe" is difficult or impossible. having worked with such people in our defense dept. i can assure you that at least 5% of them are good. the rest of them should be working in mines or factories in some janitorial job. changing a light bulb is a challenge.
