DAVID'S PLACE:

How about some real time (OCD) obsessive compulsive disorder talk? I have been tormented and tortured by it almost my entire 72 male years. I have pure OCD as it is known.  I do not need to keep checking the door to see of it is locked or checking the stove to see if it is turned off, or wash my hands a million times a day. My misery is different. I must confront people who I think have insulted me. Fear is my constant companion because my whole deal is connected to confrontation. Doing fearful things so I can get the fearful thing off my mind are my boulders to carry..  So, if someone tells me to go fuck myself, or they say they think I stink at golf or if I feel that I must defend someone's honor who is a friend or loved one who has been insulted or abused, or the music next door is too loud or someone slams a door too hard or tons of other things happen than I become incapacitated.  I sit and ruminate about what I can do to resolve the problem. I cannot function while ...

I have written a lot for a long time in my seventy one one plus years of existence. I have started novels, short stories, essays, autobiographies, screenplays. You name it. I have ground out a lot of words. Unfortunately, all my words have gone in the junk heap. I do not know that I have ever written anything good. I really don't know yet if I can really write. My stuff has never being published other than on my pathetic blog. I once owned a small business newspaper for which I wrote a weekly publishers opinion column, usually in the middle of the night some forty years ago. Now, I am seventy one, divorced, with a big, loving family that is in great shape.  Fortunately, I have been very lucky so that in my twilight years I have ended up with almost no responsibilities other than walking my girlfriends little dog. He is a five year old American Eski. I've fallen madly in love with him in the year he has been living with us in beautiful southern Florida. I never knew I could be s...

It is too bad that Donald J. Trump is protected by the same constitutional rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that he would like to deprive other Americans of being protected by. This ignorant, corrupt, criminal president ought to be thrown in jail and not let out until he tells the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth about all the lies and unlawful behavior he has been and continues to be engaged in. The nerve of this disgraceful tub of guts to puke his bile in our faces and insist he is above the law and a victim of everyone who does not approve of him.  He should not be in charge of our country. The cowards in his party who protect him for their unconscionable reasons should also lose their jobs. Who the f..k does this beastly hunk of junk think he is? He continuously defrauds our nation as a fake commander and chief  who is supposed to protect us.  This guy is protecting nothing except his sorry, guilty ass? Every train eve...
