Madness

-

Early on in the hearing about January 6th I saw a tweet that said:

“If you’re watching the hearing, you should probably find something more important to do with your time.”

That tweet was written by a member of a party that claims to be fully patriotic.

The same party that desecrated the American flag by flying it beside the Confederate flag, or even more disturbingly next to the blue and white one with the former embarrassment’s name on it.

And I honestly couldn’t watch all of it because it is so upsetting to me as an American.

To just trample all that the flag has stood for in lockstep with an absolute self-serving maniac is infuriating.

Yet.

I don’t know what might happen because of these revealing testimonials.

The members high up in that administration stood straight up that day and denounced all of it after it was under control.

They all spoke about the election fraud being nothing but a huge lie told in desperation by a crazed man.

About a week later, most were in lockstep with the insanity.

None of that matters if the Department of Justice turns a blind eye.

And that’s what made me turn it off.

I will watch more, but too much at one time…

…isn’t great for my peace of mind because I am convinced that the goal of all of this is to dismantle the Democratic way.

The party isn’t misunderstood.

No way.

They’re doing it on purpose.

The vote to allow the price-gouging at the fuel pump.

The vote against a domestic violence program.

Hell, the vote to strike down relief for baby formula shortages.

Those aren’t principled votes designed to send relief to a worn out country…

…those are votes of pure cruelty…

…and the only explanation is they are voting for it all to collapse.

If it had gone exactly as planned on January 6th they would’ve killed Pelosi and AOC and others…

…and they would’ve hung their own vice-president.

That WAS the desired outcome!

And people want more of that?

History will tell the story.

When all is said and done, that day will go down as one of the worst days in American history…

…but that’s only if we stop it…

…and don’t invite more insanity.

(It could go either way).

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 be...

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...

My sister’s book is out there! Go get it!! It makes me so proud to see the book on Amazon, knowing that it’s very, very great! It’s been a long, long time since we were out in California, brainstorming my stories long before they were published. Carrie Lynn was writing, writing and writing some more through the years and I kept telling her… …”Go for it!” Well, she did!  To amazing results. Of course I was able to read the book as it was being put together, but I ordered a copy from Amazon yesterday and can’t wait to read it again. The shoe is on the other foot now as I have been sitting on a lot of my writing lately. I plan on getting it out there before the end of 2024, but for now: Carrie takes center stage! And it’s so great… …go get a copy!
