Its a beautiful, windy day in southern Florida and I am so miserable. I am tormented by OCD( obsessive compulsive disorder). I am writing partly because I am no longer a football fan and the NFL is raging on TV but I have no interest in any of the games and scores. I used to but 14 years ago after losing a fortune I quit gambling. I mean there is nothing more than I would love bet football games than drive over to one of the casinos that is within minutes of my gated community and play hold em poker. But, I would lose. If not today than tomorrow, Because I have no control once I start to gamble. I'm powerless like I am over my OCD. I cannot stop. I would go from poker, to the crap table to blackjack to baccarat while stopping in the sports book to bet games.</p><p>Normally, I would be outside playing golf or pickleball today. But, I hurt my 75 year old back yesterday overdoing the pickleball and there are no golf games today because all my golfing guys are watching football. </p><p>Also, I have terrible OCD which has made my life miserable for as long as I can remember. I don't check the lights or the door over and over or any of that shit. My OCD is having obsessions in my mind demanding I seek retribution against anyone who has spoken to me insultingly, embarrassed me, or did something I think I have to rectify in a face to face confrontation. Not a physical fight because I am not violent. Words only.</p><p> Right now, I have had this 82 year old guy on my mind who insulted me several years ago in an old mans softball game.. I have tried to find him several times to say "you owe me an apology" and I have looked for him at a bunch of ballfields and bars he used to go to but with no luck.</p><p>I did talk to him and text him but he just would not give me the satisfaction of really listening to me so I could get that apology. So, seeing him face to face is the only thing I want to do which I am sure will make things worse since he does not even know anything is wrong.</p><p>Also, I have been in real trouble for chasing after other people who I had gotten into an argument with, or who had intimidated me begging them to to either shake hands, apologize to me, allow me to explain myself or anything to get rid of the thought that I had to confront them off my mind. Desensitization is the word.</p><p>It has resulted in harmless physical fighting, and all kinds of other things so I could stop thinking about someone who offended me. The problem is that if I actually settle an issue another issue pops up and the mental torment returns, Or, the same issue gets mor complicated.</p><p>My OCD is never about hurting anyone I am chasing. I never have hurt anyone intentionally. Anyway, I know where this 82 year old guy lives and plays ball. Trouble comes after I do occasionally chase someone down. Because I always want to tell them more after the confrontation is over and since they do not know its OCD and then they get scared and the next thing you know I'm standing in front of lawyers and a judge.</p><p>So, I am afraid to really go to this guys house or keep chasing him around places where he goes became I 'm lucky I have not found him or this could already be a much bigger problem. It always happens that way. This man probably does not even remember the little nothing argument we had. Also, he would think I was crazy if he listened to my whole spiel. Then, I'd be obsessed trying to get him let me explain to him I was not crazy.</p><p>So, without going further this is OCD and has nothing to do with anything but my own sick mind. I try and try to let this go like all the other obsessions I have experienced but it is an almost superhuman feat to change thinking that tells you to do the wrong thing instead of the right thing which is work on myself and not a symbol.. Believe me, I have had a ton of therapy, pills, meditation, and other writing. </p><p>My OCD still comes down to me accepting it and not trying to fight the OCD but realizing its really me that is the problem and not some guy I do not care about. </p><p>I'm not going to edit this story and keep editing until its a worthy article. This is all about me. Thanks.</p><p>David </p>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-61684111232973176802023-09-23T20:17:00.000-05:002023-09-23T20:17:15.776-05:00COMPULSIVE GAMBLING: THE UNCONDITIONAL LOVER<p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Gambling. One of the nastiest monsters of the world. Feed it and it eats your soul. Starve it and it destroys your mind. To a real compulsive gambler the loss of gambling is good reason for perpetual mourning. Every ounce of desire in your body craves going back to gambling again.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">The adrenaline, the euphoria, the joy of knowing you will be in action is enough to inspire any gambler to gamble again or relapse no matter how much they have lost. I am not just talking about lost money. I am talking about lost health, family, and friends. About losing everything that matters.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I gambled for over 50 years and lost it all. In the last nine years I have quit gambling and slowly rebuilt my life. Yet, I continue to long for my greatest friend and unconditional lover. Gambling. But I am no longer owned by that urge. I own it. But, I only own it one day at a time. So I stay on guard and keep working with other compulsive gamblers continually or I know I am doomed. Each day, I commit to not gambling that day and then I get to the next day. It's not easy but it's way better than dying.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">I was a very big gambler betting on sports, craps, blackjack, anything at all. I would win or lose thousands of dollars a day. I had lost well over a million dollars in my life before I stopped gambling nine years ago. My last bet was on January 9, 2009. I also lost my priceless soul. I was a total degenerate.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">The addiction of compulsive gambling is the same for all affected whether one bets nickels or thousands of dollars. It's all about powerlessness over gambling. A compulsive gambler cannot stop permanently without help. The help comes from joining Gamblers Anonymous which is totally free.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">No one stops gambling on their own permanently. Will power alone will not make it. I tried many times and would stop for a few months or longer. But, the urge to gamble again waited patiently to take me down. Eventually, I would start gambling. I could not understand that I needed the help of other compulsive gamblers to stop gambling permanently. I quit over and over. But, I could not stay sober from betting.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Being destroyed financially, mentally, and emotionally is not enough. The monster inside my brain and every other compulsive gamblers brain still lives on unaffected by logic and reason. It says "You can do it David." You can set limits, you can avoid going out of control and enjoy the thrill of being in action." My rational mind keeps speaking at the same time. "Go to a Gamblers Anonymous meeting David. You are getting false messages. You are doomed if you gamble. You know that."</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">I do know that now. The gambling demon in my brain does not go away. It never will But, the evil voice tears at my irrational mind and says "just do it. "You will do it like a normal person this time. You will be ok" My logical mind needs constant reinforcement to say no to that urge everyday of my life. It says "David, you have tried to stop gambling and cannot do it alone."</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">My abnormal mind is a powerful, self destructive force that needs no nourishment. It never starves and is endlessly patient. It waits and waits tirelessly inside of myself and inside every other compulsive gambler. It says "Come to me David. You want me" It stalks me and tempts me like the sick, twisted, sociopath it is.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">My solution, my lifelong answer came when I started to attend Gamblers Anonymous meetings regularly which are filled with people just like me. I faithfully attend GA meetings weekly, every week, no matter what else is happening. My GA meetings are the biggest responsibility I have. Meetings come before work, family, or anything else because I know that gambling will either drive me insane, put me in jail, or kill me.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">So, I know that my life depends on not gambling and I need the support of other compulsive gamblers continually. I stay abstinent by going to Gamblers Anonymous meetings and sharing my feelings with other gamblers whether young or old whether they have been abstinent for one day or thirty years. I know that I need the positive reinforcement I get from being at GA meetings which are plentiful all over the country and the world.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I work the 12 steps of recovery with a sponsor and at group meetings. I deal with personal defects that caused me endless pain and suffering from gambling. Only from GA can I get the strength and support of others just like me who help me through each day.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Compulsive Gamblers all share the same feelings. Only other compulsive gamblers understand each other regardless of age, nationality, beliefs or any other denominator. We are all the same because we are powerless over gambling and our lives are unmanageable. It's easy to understand but tough to accept and stick with. But, thousands of men and women are recovering compulsive gamblers.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Look up Gamblers Anonymous online and find out where to call and where the local meetings are in your area. Google it.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Its easy to check out. A spouse or friend can check it out for you.

I am not just talking about lost money. I am talking about lost health, jobs, family, and friends. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">About losing everything that matters.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">I gambled for over 50 years and lost it all. In the last 14 years since 2009, I have quit gambling and slowly rebuilt my life. Yet, I continue to long for my greatest friend and unconditional lover. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Gambling.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Now, I am no longer owned by that gambling urge. I own it. But, I only own it only day at a time. So, I stay on guard and keep working with other compulsive gamblers continually or I know I am doomed. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Each day I commit to not gambling that day and to get to the next day without making a bet.</span><span style="font-size: x-large;"> Gambling is an incurable, lifelong disease. That is the bad news. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">The good news is the condition can be arrested.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"> You can stop.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">It's not easy but it's much better than going to jail, an asylum, or the cemetery. Those are the only alternatives. That has been proven time and time again. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">I was a very big gambler at times betting box car numbers on</span><span style="font-size: x-large;"> sports, craps, blackjack, or anything at all, everyday. I would win or lose hundreds of thousands of dollars. I had lost well over 1 million dollars before I stopped gambling in 2009. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">Or, I would go back to betting pennies,</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">It was never about the money. It was only about the action.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">I also lost my priceless soul by stealing, lying, and cheating. I was dirt to myself and all the people who loved me. My self respect and that of others came back to me in bits and pieces only when I stopped. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">I lost over a million dollars, Many will never trust me again with good reason regardless of how I have redeemed myself.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">The addiction of compulsive gambling is the same for all of us affected whether one bets nickels or millions of dollars. We are powerless. Gamblers cannot stop. Help is needed.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">The help comes from joining Gamblers Anonymous (GA) which is a totally free fellowship. There are meetings all over the country. Free..</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Just hit the Google button.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">No one stops gambling on their own permanently. Will power alone will not make it. I tried many times and would stop for a few months or longer. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">But, the urge to gamble waited patiently to take me down again and again. I would stay abstinent for one month to three years. Eventually, I would start gambling again.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">I could not understand that I needed the help of other compulsive gamblers to quit gambling permanently. I always thought I could stop on my own. I never wanted to. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">So, I would say I was different. I insisted I did not need Gamblers Antonymous.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Being destroyed financially, mentally, and emotionally was not enough to stop me. The monster inside my brain and every other compulsive gamblers brain still lives on unaffected by logic and reason.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;"> It says "come back to me. I love you no matter what you have done. You can gamble David. You can set limits, you can avoid going out of control and just enjoy the thrill of being in action like a normal person.”</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Simultaneously, my rational mind always kept speaking the painful truth constantly saying. “You are powerless., you cannot stop gambling on your own."</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">My compulsive gambling mental illness is much smarter and stronger than my will.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">"You are doomed if you gamble David.” That is the true inner voice.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">That truth must be accepted 100%.about the impossibility of successfully gambling if you are a compulsive gambler. There are no halfway measures.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">I do know that now. The gambling demon in my brain will never go away.! But, it can be stopped from doing any more damage.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">The evil, patient, clever voice lies and tears at my rational mind and keeps saying "Just do it. You will be okay." </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">My powerless mind needs constant reinforcement to continue saying no to that urge present everyday of my life. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;"> Now It says "David, you have tried to stop gambling and cannot do it alone. Go to a gamblers anonymous meeting, Contact your GA. friends."</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">My sick mind is a powerful, self destructive force that needs no nourishment. It never starves and is endlessly patient. It waits and waits tirelessly inside myself and inside every other compulsive gambler. It screams "Come back to me David. You want me."</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">It stalks me and tempts me like the sick, twisted, sociopath it is.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">But, it can be beaten.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">My solution, my lifelong answer came when I started to attend Gamblers Anonymous meetings regularly which are filled with people just like me. I faithfully attend several Gamblers Anonymous meetings weekly, every week, no matter what else is happening. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">My Gamblers Anonymous meetings are the biggest responsibility I have. My life depends on my fellow compulsive gamblers who are exactly like me and you.. They are continually at weekly meetings and you can find meetings no matter where live,.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Gamblers Anonymous come before work, family, or anything else because I know that gambling again will either drive me insane, put me in jail, or kill me.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">So, I know that my life depends on not gambling and I need the support of other compulsive gamblers continually. I stay abstinent by going to meetings and sharing my feelings with other gamblers whether young or old and whether they have been abstinent for one day or thirty years.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">I know that I need the positive reinforcement I get from being at GA meetings which are plentiful all over the country and the world. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Just Google gamblers anonymous. Call the any of the 24/7 phone services or have someone call for you. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">I work the 12 steps of recovery alone, with a sponsor, and at group meetings. I deal with the personal defects that caused me endless pain and suffering from gambling. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Recovery heals the soul and improves the person. That is for later. Now, it is time to find out about stopping gambling.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Only from Gamblers Anonymous can I get the strength and support of others just like you who help me through each day.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Compulsive Gamblers all share the same feelings. Only other compulsive gamblers understand each other regardless of age, nationality, beliefs or any other denominator. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">We are all the same because we are all powerless over gambling and our lives are unmanageable. </span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">It's an easy concept to understand but tough to accept and stick with. But, hundreds of thousands of men and women all over the world are successfully recovering compulsive gamblers.</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;">Look up Gamblers Anonymous online and find out where to call and where the local meetings are in your area. Punch up Compulsive Gambling on Google..</span></p><p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in; orphans: 2; widows: 2;"><span style="font-size: large;"> There are thousands of meetings throughout the country everyday of the year.

They banned me in 2015 about a tweet I posted about Laura Ingraham, the piece of garbage Fox entertainer. </span></span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: xx-large;">Twitter sent me a letter of apology admitting they were wrong for banning me and they apologized for unfairly banishing me because I violated no rules. </span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: xx-large;">Then, a few days ago Twitter and X said I was fully reinstated.

A post they admitted in writing that they said was not a violation. Can I sue? No. She is still scum as is Twitter and X. They are afraid of liability. They should be.</span><span style="font-size: xx-large;"> </span></p>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-6593608310017584582023-09-14T20:40:00.001-05:002023-09-15T22:15:56.914-05:00 GUTLESS GROVELING CONGRESSIONAL TRUMP MAGAS <p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">What a pathetic joke it is to try and baselessly impeach Joe Biden. I hope the sicko fringe Republicans do not proceed, If the DOJ starts digging into the backgrounds of some of the most radical anti-Biden morons they may end up thrown out of office and impeached themselves for good reasons.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Mr. Garbage, speaker of the house Kevin McCarthy a weak, groveling dope and total Trump loyalist and Jim Jordan, two of the garbage picking Republicans attacking the President and his son both have dirty and immoral backgrounds.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Jim Jordan or Gym as he is sometimes called would not act to help his wrestlers at Ohio State University a few years ago when he coached college wrestling when some wrestlers told him of the perverted sexual actions of Dr. Richard Strauss who acted out sexually with at least six of Jordan's wrestlers. Jordan knew and walked away without opening his disgusting mouth while knowing about the sexual attacks on his wrestlers by Strauss. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Cowardly Strauss than choose suicide after being sentenced to jail for his despicable and sick perversions. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">As for Speaker McCarthy who heads the impeachment effort he dropped out of the speakers race in 2015 partly because married Mr. McCarthy had an affair with congresswoman Renee Ellmers. Kevin is one of the dumbest and most gutless Trumpers out there who only got his speakership by selling his soul to a bunch of far right goons.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">There is a ton of dirty laundry connected to many other members of congress. much more serious than Hunter Biden who repaid his income tax and his having a illegal gun. This guy is being hung out to dry by these useless Republicans who cannot even come with charges against Joe Biden, </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Since when are the Republicans so concerned about guns anyway? They do not seem to make any real effort to stop maniacs from legally buying AR-15 assault rifles and other rifles designed as fighting weapons. In many states as you can buy a long rifle as easily as you can buy a hamburger. One of Hunter Bidens guns might have been sold to him by a place that lobbies and contributes to Jordan and other impeachment supporters. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">But, they protect their assault rifle lobbies who drop money on them to keep the gun sellers in business. And all kinds of people die and the guns keep firing at helpless people with a few notable exceptions who will not sell guns..</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Meanwhile, we are getting close to a government shutdown while these goofs in congress fight with each other over nothing making no domestic progress and North Koreas Kim and Russia's Putin laugh, have lunch and buy and sell weapons. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">All this in large part because of Donald J. Trump, a lying, cheating, sexual criminal who conman who has a strangle hold on the seats of the members of the Republican party.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">People.

WHERE DID THAT NAME COME FROM?<p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">The first James Bond movie starring Sean Connery, then an unknown and unlikely actor, was Dr. No and released in 1962. The first words Sean Connery uttered as Bond was the world famous iconic phrase Bond, James Bond.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">People, including myself, have thought that Connery spontaneously changed the script from an unknown name to Bond, James Bond. because it sounded better. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">However, the famous catchy line was supposedly arrived at by Berkely Mather the co-script writer for Dr. No, From Russia With Love and Goldfinger which were the first three Bond movies. </span><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Maher was a British script writer. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">There were a total of twenty five Bond movies featuring several Bond characters</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">EON Productions Limited produced the first movies. Albert R . "Cubby" Broccoli and Herschel Harry Saltzman were partners for the first nine Bond movies. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Their unfriendly partnership supposedly ended in 1972 by mutual agreement but Broccoli initially would not fulfill the agreement to sell his shares to Saltzman for about 9 million dollars. The issue was resolved later.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">EON Productions Limited and Danjaq LLC was wholly owned and controlled by the Wilson/Broccoli family. Danjaq is the US based company that controlled, along with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios the copyrights to the existing James Bond films and controlled the rights to produce future James Bond films.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Amazon, in 2022 closed an $8.5 billion deal to purchase MGM studios which which gave Amazon control of famous movie franchises like James Bond and Rocky.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Barbara Broccoli, Cubby's daughter was involved with Bonds movies and now has an estate estimated to be $400 million as of 2022.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">There are plans for additional releases of most Bond movies on Prime Video and they will be stream able. Bond was scheduled to leave Prime in 2022.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Do not worry. Bond will always be out there.</span></p>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-50131645354609662892023-09-08T13:06:00.008-05:002023-09-10T14:22:57.071-05:00 75 YEAR OLD WRITER TO NEW BEST SELLING AUTHOR<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO9rSfP1jqglsI_x1dTU55G0oOpaBT-7dANJHJ9UkdSVh0vNIz-AnPT_ecW-cDCEOv7Rcm5Y6mGBZ7PJyOSuW1Q4wDEcuHCIHy7v8eu4Sx1Yo5YdxlhnMA5wvRRsLiAf9EoTeYPUWyM__wfL_U_LAsierTVEOVgAdWtWyD9Ij-QC4qxfkGhgtWbm68GL5a/s604/10391511_1237173727741_3178806_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="453" data-original-width="604" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO9rSfP1jqglsI_x1dTU55G0oOpaBT-7dANJHJ9UkdSVh0vNIz-AnPT_ecW-cDCEOv7Rcm5Y6mGBZ7PJyOSuW1Q4wDEcuHCIHy7v8eu4Sx1Yo5YdxlhnMA5wvRRsLiAf9EoTeYPUWyM__wfL_U_LAsierTVEOVgAdWtWyD9Ij-QC4qxfkGhgtWbm68GL5a/s320/10391511_1237173727741_3178806_n.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I am just another guy sitting in my kitchen chair trying to figure out how to become a successful author. I just read David Baldacci's autobiography who is the best selling author and he made writing seem so easy. He made it sound like just telling an interesting story to a friend was the trick.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I am a 75 year old male who is retired and disinterested in almost everything I have been doing lately besides talking to my family of kids and grandkids. Writing seems like the one way I can justify an admittedly indulged existence only because of the good fortune of a well endowed family and some lucky business success.<br />Otherwise, I feel very empty sitting out here in Florida far away from my roots in Chicago.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I never saw the point in going to school so I en1ded up graduating last in my class in both grade school and high school then got kicked out of 3 colleges and inducted into the army at the height of the Vietnam war. Being scared to death of actually being sent to fight I fooled the shrink at the induction center with an academy award performance of a neurotic, disturbed, terrified, bullied kid who said he could not urinate with other people around.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I did the whole interview head down and hardly ever looking up at the army shrink and speaking creepy softly.. He bought my crazy act even though he still had me come back 3 months later. I came back and performed the same act of being a man that was potential total liability to the army. I was permanently rejected.<br />I headed straight to the local pool room where my friends were waiting for my results. I took them all out to dinner and we got drunk to celebrate my good fortune not to be drafted. My friends were mostly nice boys who got deferments because they were in college studying to be doctors and lawyers. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">That was back in 1969.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">In the ensuing years I have been the same lucky dope that I always was from grade school on.<br /><br />I gambled, smoked dope, did a lot of coke and chased women all this time. I did get married to a wonderful woman and that union lasted from 1975 to 1989 although we were pretty done after 1982.<br /><br />In fact, I just had a reunion with some guys I have been friends with for 69 years who are all friends from the old neighborhood who started school with me in 1953. <br />It was great.<br /></span></p><p></p>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-33295573626417443302023-09-08T07:09:00.006-05:002023-09-15T22:24:46.595-05:00FOOTBALL ORGY BEGINS <p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Another season of not watching football for me is here. I have not watched a televised football game for more than 5 minutes since I stopped gambling on football and everything else 14 years ago. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">It is so satisfying to not care about which team beats which team the entire season. Good for all the football freaks out there that the now get an unlimited new supply of football to love and cherish.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I would rather be playing pickleball, reading, working out, playing golf or doing any worthwhile task rather than living or dying by which team wins a football game. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I know I’m in a small minority of people especially in recent years as football popularity has blown up to monstrous proportions. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">So what? Who cares? </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Figure out those spreads. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">You’ll do great this season lol.</span></p>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-69111231073518782242023-08-14T14:09:00.003-05:002023-09-15T22:02:30.818-05:00MEDIA WHORES GET RICH OFF TRUMP<p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">I wonder how much money the cable networks like CNN MSNBC, and FOX to name the main ones are making off Trump? He has been leading the news endlessly for several years. He brings in the enormous piles of dirty money.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">Reporters are seeing giant paydays because of his presence. Tons of consultants and broadcasters and others are working enormous extra hours because of him. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">The stations act so outraged that Trump does what he does but in reality how much are they making in advertising revenues because of Donald Trump? </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">The tales of Trump have made so many people and networks so fat yet they act so righteously indignant. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">I would like to hear Anderson Cooper or Brit Hume report on some of the revenues that have come in to their stations ever since Trump became a huge key to their journalistic existence? </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Think of the massive amount of careers Trump has made with his reprehensible deeds?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">We only hear of how bad Trump is every single hour of everyday. The stations cry and cry but keep continuously reporting about the punishment Trump is facing because he is the worlds worst presidential criminal. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">They dissect all of his presumably criminal actions around the clock while the loot keeps coming in as Trumps Chumps stay tuned in or focused on the next line of Trump news.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;"> But, the media and all those connected keep profiting from all the cash that derelict generates. They just don't talk to us about that. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Ask them to open their books.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Lets see your Trump accounting you righteously innocent whorehouses just How much money are all the media people putting in their pockets and in their advertisers pockets because of the coverage they give that filthy, immoral, dishonest stiff?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Tell us Nicole Wallace, Rachel Madcow to name a few prominent anti-Trump voices and tell all the rest of us Trump detractors how much bank he has created for you and all your outlets while you demonstrate daily outrage at his conduct?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Who is the real unethical and immoral hustler in these years of political madness?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Why don't you all just stope covering Trump and put an end to that malicious madman?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Tell me why?.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">David</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: large;">tshirtdave69@gmail.com is where I am at.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial; font-size: medium;">Comments welcome.</span></p>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-74830624570112281482023-08-12T10:26:00.002-05:002023-08-12T10:31:45.210-05:00 Chris Christie Kicks Trumps Ass<p> <span style="font-size: 14px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">Covernor</span><span style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: 0.875rem; white-space-collapse: preserve;"> Chris Christie.

font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">As much of a group of suckers American voters have proven themselves to be they do have common sense.. But, not at first. They take a lot of time realizing they are getting screwed but eventually they figure out what happened because of their bad decisions. But, only after the cat is out of the bag.. We seem to learn but only in retrospect.</span></p><p><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">So, over the years we have suffered from the big scams and have been victimized by the housing market crash, the sub prime loans banking and stock market crash,, the bogus investment banking firms, the folly of approving the Iraq war, the horrible politicians we have elected like Bush and Cheney.</span></p><div class="nH aHU" style="color: #202124; font-family: "Google Sans", Roboto, RobotoDraft, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; position: relative;"><div class="nH hx" style="color: #222222; min-width: 502px; padding: 0px;"><div class="nH" jslog="20686; u014N:xr6bB; 1:WyIjdGhyZWFkLWE6ci01NTk1OTk5NjE1MjMwMjExNDI0IixudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxbXV0." role="list"><div aria-expanded="true" class="h7 ie nH oy8Mbf" role="listitem" style="clear: both; max-width: 100000px; outline: none; padding-bottom: 0px;" tabindex="-1"><div class="Bk" style="border-bottom-color: initial; border-bottom-style: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-color: initial; border-left-style: initial; border-radius: 0px; border-right-color: initial; border-right-style: initial; border-top-color: rgb(239, 239, 239); border-top-style: solid; border-width: 0px; float: left; margin-bottom: 0px; position: relative; width: 1256px;"><div class="G3 G2" style="border-bottom: 0px rgba(100, 121, 143, 0.12); border-image: initial; border-left: 0px; border-radius: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: none; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><div id=":18b"><div class="adn ads" data-legacy-message-id="189d38b068ba6db7" data-message-id="#msg-a:r-437805321079867768" style="border-left: none; display: flex; padding: 0px;"><div class="gs" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; width: 1184px;"><div class=""><div class="ii gt" id=":18e" jslog="20277; u014N:xr6bB; 1:WyIjdGhyZWFkLWE6ci01NTk1OTk5NjE1MjMwMjExNDI0IixudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxbXV0.; 4:WyIjbXNnLWE6ci00Mzc4MDUzMjEwNzk4Njc3NjgiLG51bGwsW11d" style="direction: ltr; font-size: 0.875rem; margin: 8px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="a3s aiL " id=":18d" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-feature-settings: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-size: small; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; line-height: 1.5; overflow: hidden;"><div dir="ltr">Think of all the violent criminals who are arrested and released over and over until finally they do something horrific and maybe get caught..They usuually have long rap sheets. They could be stopped earlier. But we don't care enough to act..<br />The fraudsters like Donald Trump, Bernie Madoff, and all the other con men and women who get inside our pockets and heads stay there until they take all of our money. They are not detected until it's too late.. Then, they usually are given free passage by us to do it again.. Also, although Americans have been victimized over and over throughout history they just keep on going for new scams and scammers. Like fish with their mouths open we bite again and again..<br />We would rather watch and read sensationalized stories that titillate us then investigate who and what we are doing when making choices..We become fixated on personalities, sex, drugs, and rock and roll.. That is why we love following Donald Trump. He fascinates us.<br />He represents action and excitement just like O.J. Simpson once did.<br />Remember what fools the jury was composed of to find him innocent. Electing Trump would be just as stupid as the Simpson jury was..<br />We did not see or remember the potential disaster of the Vietnamese war, the onslaught of Bin Laden, ISIS, and on and on..We have destroyed ourselves in large part by not demanding facts and not making thoughtful choices could have had the courage to say no to the government and stopped so much damage from happening.<br /> But, we only figure out out disasters after they have happened. Many with our blessings. mea culpas unlimited..<br />We Americans are not the brightest bulbs on the tree in protecting ourselves from harm. We even voted in prohibition because we were conned and it took years to repeal it..Who would vote to stop drinking if we thought about it? We got hustled. way back then and we keep getting hustled..<br />Once, just once, let's make the right move ahead of time and not after the damage is done.<br />The biggest, scariest, most threatening problem for us, our kids, and our grandchildren is who to elect in the 2016 Presidential race. We cannot be wrong this time.The accurate, factual picture is painted right in front of us. Trump will lead us to hell. We have the correct information in which to make an intelligent judgment... Make it no Trump.<br />Trump stands there and gives full disclosure of his pathetic self. His ego makes him do it. Trump begs us to see him for the fraud he is. We do not have to get hustled again. Let's be smart.<br />You have in Trump a second rate, double talking, ignorant hustler who knows nothing about politics. He is no more than a carnival barker who has scammed too many people already. Now, he is trying to scam the whole country. People keep listening to him.. </div><div dir="ltr"><br /></div><div dir="ltr">Like P.T Barnum said "there is a sucker born every minute".. Trump knows that.<br />Trump has been fined for racial discrimination, and is involved in thousands of lawsuits. He is racist, is demeaning toward women and minorities and just a bad guy..He is totally bogus but we don't care. Millions of us support him anyway..<br />He is too stupid to even shut his mouth to stay out of unnecessary trouble in this campaign. He won't even let Hillary self-destruct. Trump should be hustling watches on a street corner not running for office. Instead, he just keeps on being stupid and shooting himself in the foot..<br />robbing and raping the country. He also is more popular among MAGA voters now then he was before he stole their lunches before their very eyes.<br />If anyone sees fit to elect Trump in 2024 he could actually be serving a prison sentence for his alleged criminal offenses then my faith in humanity and basic decency will be destroyed forever.<div class="yj6qo"></div><div class="adL">Want Trump Americans?</div></div><div class="adL"></div></div></div><div class="hi" style="background: rgb(242, 242, 242); border-bottom-left-radius: 1px; border-bottom-right-radius: 1px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: auto;"></div></div></div><div class="ajx" style="clear: both;"></div></div><div class="gA gt acV" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border-bottom-left-radius: 0px; border-bottom-right-radius: 0px; border-top: none; font-size: 0.875rem; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: auto;"><div class="gB xu" jslog="184332; u014N:xr6bB;" style="border-top: 0px; padding: 0px;"><div class="ip iq" style="border-top: none; clear: both; margin: 0px; padding: 16px 0px;"><div id=":18f"><table class="cf wS" role="presentation" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><tbody><tr><td class="amq" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 16px; vertical-align: top; visibility: hidden; width: 44px;"><img class="ajn bofPge" data-hovercard-id="tshirtdave69@gmail.com" id=":nn_0" jid="tshirtdave69@gmail.com" name=":nn" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a/AAcHTteeosm16v3rRqIZlcAD8J8MlIPEdYxZbpHDhdUeEXmVtA=s40-p" style="border-radius: 50%; display: block; height: 40px; width: 40px;" /></td><td class="amr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: 1184px;"><div class="nr wR" style="background-color: white; border-radius: 1px; border: none !important; box-sizing: border-box; color: #222222; margin: 0px !important; padding: 0px; transition: none 0s ease 0s;"><div class="amn" style="align-items: center; color: inherit; display: flex; height: auto; line-height: 20px; padding: 0px;"><span class="ams bkH" id=":188" jslog="21576; u014N:cOuCgd,Kr2w4b; 1:WyIjdGhyZWFkLWE6ci01NTk1OTk5NjE1MjMwMjExNDI0IixudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxbXV0.; 4:WyIjbXNnLWE6ci00Mzc4MDUzMjEwNzk4Njc3NjgiLG51bGwsW10sbnVsbCwxLDBd" role="link" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -webkit-user-drag: none; align-items: center; background: none; border-radius: 18px; border: 1px solid rgb(116, 119, 117); box-shadow: none; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444746; cursor: pointer; display: inline-flex; font-size: 0.875rem; height: 36px; justify-content: center; margin-right: 8px; min-width: 104px; outline: none; padding: 0px 16px 0px 12px; position: relative; user-select: none; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0">Reply</span><span class="ams bkG" id=":18a" jslog="21578; u014N:cOuCgd,Kr2w4b; 1:WyIjdGhyZWFkLWE6ci01NTk1OTk5NjE1MjMwMjExNDI0IixudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbCxbXV0.; 4:WyIjbXNnLWE6ci00Mzc4MDUzMjEwNzk4Njc3NjgiLG51bGwsW10sbnVsbCwxLDBd" role="link" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; -webkit-user-drag: none; align-items: center; background: none; border-radius: 18px; border: 1px solid rgb(116, 119, 117); box-shadow: none; box-sizing: border-box; color: #444746; cursor: pointer; display: inline-flex; font-size: 0.875rem; height: 36px; justify-content: center; margin-right: 8px; min-width: 104px; outline: none; padding: 0px 16px 0px 12px; position: relative; user-select: none; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0">Forward</span></div></div></td></tr></tbody></table><br /></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="nH"></div><div class="nH"></div></div></div><div class="nH" style="color: #202124; font-family: "Google Sans", Roboto, RobotoDraft, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"></div>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-9621541169707886612023-08-07T10:06:00.001-05:002023-08-07T10:06:37.326-05:00 MDGA Make Donald Great Again<p> Almost every other Republican is afraid of what Trump can do to them by destroying them and their jobs,.

He has been leading the news endlessly for several years. He brings in the enormous piles of dirty money.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Reporters are seeing giant paydays because of his presence. Tons of consultants and broadcasters and others are working enormous extra hours because of him. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">The stations act so outraged that Trump does what he does but in reality how much are they making in advertising revenues because of Donald Trump? </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">The tales of Trump have made so many people and networks so fat yet they act so righteously indignant. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">I would like to hear Anderson Cooper or Brit Hume report on some of the revenues that have come in to their stations ever since Trump became a huge key to their journalistic existence.? </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Think of the massive amount of careers Trump has made with his reprehensible deeds?</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">We only hear of how bad Trump is every single hour of everyday. The stations cry and cry but keep continuously reporting about the punishment Trump is facing because he is the worlds worst presidential criminal. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">They dissect all of his presumably criminal actions around the clock while the loot keeps coming in as Trumps Chumps stay tuned in or focused on the next line of Trump news.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;"> But, the media and all those connected keep profiting from all the cash that derelict generates. They just don't talk to us about that. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Ask them to open their books.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Lets see your Trump accounting you righteously innocent whorehouses just like you wanted to see his tax returns.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">How much money are all the media people putting in their pockets and in their advertisers pockets because of the coverage they give that filthy, immoral, dishonest stiff?</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Tell us Nicole Wallace, Rachel Madcow to name a few prominent anti-Trump voices and tell all the rest of us Trump detractors how much bank he has created for you and all your outlets while you demonstrate daily outrage at his conduct?</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Who is the real unethical and immoral hustler in these years of political madness?</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Why don't you all just stope covering Trump and put an end to that malicious madman?</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Tell me why?. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">David</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">tshirtdave69@gmail.com is where I am at.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">. </span></p><p> </p>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-28509308950577413262023-07-23T11:03:00.002-05:002023-07-23T11:03:12.743-05:00 WHO ARE YOU?<p> Cannot get any traffic for this blog. </p><p>Say who you are and how you found me. </p><p>Thanks.</p><p>David</p>davids placehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07523509808006534628noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819147375098537888.post-70969851243617784302023-07-22T07:56:00.002-05:002023-07-22T07:56:20.674-05:00 TRUMPS CHUMPS<p> Duh? How does one beat Donald Trump in the 2024 election? He has all his opponents crawling around him like scared little mice.

So instead of peeing in your pants you cowardly, sniveling, ass kissing scum ball phony Trumpers why don’t you just attack Trump with ferocious words? Stop giving him money. </p><p>Express what you honestly really feel about that big tub of nauseous bluster and bile. Tell him to get frogged. He is not for you anyway. The base is just Trumps suckers. Are you Trumps chump?</p><p>If you lose your seat because he primaries you than you lose.

But, not at first. They take a lot of time realizing they are getting screwed but eventually they figure out what happened because of their bad decisions. But, only after the cat is out of the bag.. We seem to learn but only in retrospect.</span></p><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">So, over the years we have suffered from the big scams and have been victimized by the housing market crash, the sub prime loans banking and stocfk market crash,, the bogus investment banking firms, the folly of approving the Iraq war, the horrible politicians we have elected like Bush and Cheney.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">Think of all the violent criminals who are arrested and released over and over until finally they do something horrific and maybe get caught..They usuually have long rap sheets. They could be stopped earlier. But we don't care enough to act..</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">The fraudsters like Donald Trump, Bernie Madoff, and all the other con men and women who get inside our pockets and heads stay there until they take all of our money. They are not detected until it's too late.. Then, they usually are given free passage by us to do it again.. Also, although Americans have been victimized over and over throughout history they just keep on going for new scams and scammers. Like fish with their mouths open we bite again and again..</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">We would rather watch and read sensationalized stories that titillate us then investigate who and what we are doing when making choices..We become fixated on personalities, sex, drugs, and rock and roll.. That is why we love following Donald Trump. He fascinates us.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">He represents acton and excitement just like O.J. Simpson once did.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">Remember what fools the jury was composed of to find him innocent. Electing Trump would be just as stupid as the Simpson jury was..</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">We did not see or remember the potential disaster of the Vietnamese war, the onslaught of Bin Laden, Issis, and on and on..We have destroyed ourselves in large part by not demanding facts and not making thoughtful choices..We could have had the courage to say no to the goverment and stopped so much damage from happening.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;"> But,we only figure out out disasters after they have happened. Many with our blessings. Mea culpas unlimited..</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">We Americans are not the brightest bulbs on the tree in protecting ourselves from harm. We even voted in prohibition because we were conned and it took years to repeal it..Who would vote to stop drinking if we thought about it? We got hustled.way back then and we keep getting hustled..</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">Once, just once, lets make the right move ahead of time and not after the damage is done.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">The biggest, scariest, most threatening problem for us, our kids, and our grandchildren is who to elect in the 2016 Presidential race. We cannot be wrong this time.The accurate, factual picture is painted right in front of us. Trump will lead us to hell. We have the correct information in which to make an intelligent judgment... Make it no Trump.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">Trump stands there and gives full disclosure of his pathetic self. His ego makes him do it. Trump begs us to see him for the fraud he is. We do not have to get hustled again. Let's be smart.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;"> You have in Trump a second rate, double talking, ignorant hustler who knows nothing about politics. He is no more then a carnival barker who has scammed too many people already. Now, he is trying to scam the whole country. People keep listening to him.. Like P.T Barnum said "there is a sucker born every minute".. Trump knows that.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">Trump has been fined for racial discrimination, and is involved in thousands of lawsuits He is racist, is demeaning toward women and minorities and just a bad guy..He is totally bogus but we don't care. Millions of us support him anyway..</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;"> He is too stupid to even shut his mouth to stay out of unnecessary trouble in this campaign. He won't even let Hillary self destruct. Trump should be hustling watches on a street corner not running for office,.Instead, he just keeps on being stupid and shooting himself in the foot..</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">You have Hilliary Clinton, a clever liar, a diabolical politician but who is no Trump.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">She has experience, intellect, patience and is not unfit to be President.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">She is a professional, albeit flawed badly, but who at least she knows how to fly the plane.</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;">She is good enough and the only choice we have this year..</span><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><br style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;" /><span style="background-color: #333333; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 13.2px;"> Are you going let Trump fly the plane?
