J-Lo is Free

-
So, J-Lo is getting divorced...again. I'm back in the mix. Although she's no Kathy Fazzolari.

Wondering a lot today about what Casey Anthony can do when she gets out of prison. A career in baby-sitting? That ship may have sailed. I predict an OJ Simpson type of deal. If she gets busted for urinating in public she's going to jail for about 50 years. They just said that she is too exhausted to answer questions about the case. What the hell is she doing in jail? I'd have been sleeping.

Do you believe that people have been mailing her money. WTF???? as the kids says.

Can't wait for the debt ceiling to be raised. Thank God there has been a bi-partisan effort on this one. Unbelievable that there is a war going on in this country that has nothing to do with guns and bombs.

Speaking of war...I listened to the Howard Stern broadcast from 09/11/01. It was amazing how upset I got listening to it unfold all over again. You can hear the absolute terror in the voices of Howard and the crew. It took me back to that day, nearly ten years ago, which is almost incomprehensible. I felt as nauseous yesterday as I did on that morning...when I was also listening to Howard.

What was most interesting about it was hearing them speculate about how America had to strike back. I'm not sure that things unfolded quite the way everyone thought. Howard was adamant about how we needed to just wipe a few countries completely off the map. I wonder what might have happened had it gone that way.

Hot enough for you?

I will never complain about summer and sunshine, but this is crazy, huh? Six months from now when I'm up to my ass in snow, I will think back about sweating so much. We do need a little rain though.

Rupert Murdoch is having trouble, huh? Poor trillionaire. The scandal is a little scary though. People tapping your emails and text messages and computer keystrokes. Who would've thunk? I thought that we were all doing all of this shit in private.

Ready for the Harry Potter movie? Isn't that kid older than me? I hear the movie is in 3-D. Is that so we can't see that the kid is 52 years old?

I wonder what Cheetah Woods did last night. I know his wife is now dating a billionaire.

And I thought I had a shot.

Oh well, like I said, J-Lo is back on the market. We all know she can't sing or dance like my wife.

Seriously, I'd take Kathy over J-Lo any day. Now that little witch in Harry Potter...

Suits

Like a lot of other people we got pulled into the series, ‘Suits’ on Netflix. I’ve never had much fun hanging around lawyers who have questioned me as a construction safety officer. I once testified in a case where the opposing lawyer started questioning me by going through my educational background. “So,” he said, racing to a crescendo, “You graduated from college with a degree in Communications-Journalism and suddenly, 30 years later, you’re a ‘safety expert.’” He actually made the quotation marks with his fingers. I just looked at him. “How does that happen?” He bellowed, sure that he was going to discredit me. “Well,” I said. “I knew I was overqualified to become a lawyer.” The courtroom erupted in laughter. Even the judge chuckled. The rest of his questions landed flat. So, I wasn’t all that keen on a show about lawyers, but ‘Suits’ is great. Meghan Markle became a princess because of the show, and she is very good in it (and a beautiful woman). Yet, there is so much more. The wri

My Buddy, Dave

-
Way back in 1997, I started working with a steel erection company out of Syracuse. I was coming straight from a long stint with a steel erector here in Buffalo so I knew my stuff when it came to steel erection safety rules. On day one, I met with the safety director and he was just getting started as a safety guy, but man, he certainly cared about the guys he worked with. Dave was a good man from the start. He’d say things like: “You’re so full of beans.” Just a down to earth, hardworking guy who became a fast friend. We drove all around New York State setting up jobs. I always let Dave drive so that I could rest. One fine day, way up North of Syracuse, we passed a state trooper.  I glanced at the speedometer. “You’re screwed,” I said, and seconds later, the lights came on. Dave was beside himself.  The cop stopped by the window, grabbed the license and registration and headed back to his vehicle. “Here’s the thing,” I said. “You’re pissed, but you’re such a good guy that I bet you tha

Mom & Ollie

 Ollie Stadium is a mess. The heavy rains rendered the backyard a mud pit and even though we threw in the side yard, the Big O was looking for more, and we were both covered in mud. I had to take some steam out of him somehow so I suggested we go visit Grandma. Ollie hates the car, but he laid quietly as we made the trip. We even brought the football because there is plenty of room to play at Grandma’s. Mom opened the door and started laughing. I thought about the love she had for every single dog we ever had. Oliver was quick to give my Mom a kiss, and then he stood beside her. The love between Mom and Dogs is a mutual bond. Through the years, Mom would make breakfast for the dogs.  Fried eggs, toast, bacon… She would wrap Christmas gifts for them. “To Jeter, Love Santa,” she would write on the cards. They played with the big chicken that made a lot of noise. Mom tossed the football and Ollie brought it back to her. As the visit drew to a close I headed for the door.  “C’mon, Oliver,”
