AnECDOta!

the hardest thing a man can do
; )

The hardest thing for a man to do is admit he’s wrong and ask for help. I have been lucky in life to have been right and been able to do it on my own. Now I must bid you farewell because it’s almost 5 PM and the homeless shelter is about to close and if I don’t get there on time I don’t know where I’m going to sleep.

(Thanking San Diego, where I once made their streets my casa, for this inspirational anecdote)

This is not my girlfriend, Janina was prettier. Hahaha, what, beauty is in the eye of the beholder

I was in my car, driving in downtown Paterson when another car pulls over next to me and my girlfriend. The guy, being in a poetic mood, says look at those eyes, look at those lips and his buddy says look at those tits. I, like a man should do, thanked them and told them that I had been working out but I wouldn’t call them tits, that they were pecs. I then rolled up the window, blasted the AC and bought my girlfriend a wool sweater for the summer.

IN SHARED NEWS: The Washington Post: Pence calls Chief Justice John Roberts a ‘disappointment to conservatives’ by John Wagner

In shared news, the Supreme Court Chief Justice is under attack for not towing a political ideology. While I have the greatest respect for VP Pence, this has been the norm throughout history for both parties. The Judicial branch is suppose to be an apolitical identity to balance out the other two branches of government. It keeps matters fair and it balances the good of the people with the good of the government. If the Judicial branch were to all of a sudden become politicized, it could make rulings that would find one party’s ideology illegal while preserving the other party’s ideology, no matter how flawed. I write these posts because it is my hope that one day a very smart and courageous woman or man will challenge the way Federal Judges are chosen and give complete autonomy to the third branch of government. I still believe that the Judicial Branch, a separate part of government, should appoint their own employees. Supreme Court Justices should be chosen by the current Supreme Court Justices and then selected by the Executive branch and then confirmed by the Legislative Branch. This would go a long way to fixing a lot of problems. And I believe the Judicial Branch should definitely have better protection, because once they fear for their safety, their rulings can now become influenced by the other branches. This is one of the reasons why I thought Mayor Buttigieg would have made a good President. He broached the idea of starting a conversation about that subject. I think it’s time we made it a reality. For the record, Chief Justice Roberts seems to be a man with honor and courage. It isn’t easy doing the right thing sometimes but it is what needs to be done and that’s how he will be remembered.

If you want to see it another way, here’s a shitty parable I just thought of. You can’t build anything without a solid foundation. A crappy foundation will guarantee that whatever you are building will crumble. This country was built on a Constitution. The Supreme Court are in charge with making sure that foundation remains sound. Why are people harassing the people that are trying to make sure the whole thing doesn’t come tumbling down. It’s like an architect asking me, a retired nobody with no experience on how to build anything, even my lego sets don’t survive, how to build a house. Makes no sense.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

impulse

An impulse control disorder is a condition in which a person has trouble controlling emotions or behaviors. Often, the behaviors violate the rights of others or conflict with societal norms and the law.

Signs and symptoms of impulse control
  • Engaging in risky or promiscuous behaviors and/or activities. (so no making love with your significant other in a car? Just missionary style and close your eyes when you goddamn do it!!!)
  • Stealing from family members, friends, or stores.
  • Starting fires. (So buy an electric stove)
  • Lying. (They always pick on politicians)
  • Hair pulling. (ooof, I knew it was a bad idea when she told me to do it)
  • Explosive violent outbursts against others or property of others. (All lawyers and stop kicking doors down)
  • Extreme defiance. (MLK, Ghandi, BLM movement, the pilgrims, Boston tea party…. doesn’t seem right)
  • Running away for no apparent reason. (All marathons must be cancelled and jogging is illegal, just buy a treadmill))

If I had a way of controlling all those symptoms with something like a magical phone or some magical waves that can control emotions I would send it through people’s eyes and feet and thumbs and then I could screw with them and then I would be the man.

Funny how those symptoms fit. If I could control their eyes, then I would make them look down and to the right, or was it left, to make them look like their lying. That’s what the experts used to say now they say that it’s no longer relevant. Wonder why?

fist fight

My girlfriend came over one day and saw me with a gash in my head and a black eye. She gasped and I told her you should see the other guy. She said does he look pretty bad. I just took a drink of wine, paused, gave this short laugh and then said, no, not even a scratch.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY!

God

In most references, God is thought of in the form of a man. If we think about it though, God created life and the only thing that can create life is a woman, ipso facto… therefore….  and because of that… it is likely that God could or would be a woman. Unless of course God is a seahorse, and that would be weird. If you think about it, there is empirical evidence within the bible itself, as only Mary was involved in Jesus’ birth, being immaculate and creating life by herself. I never seen a tissue or sock grow into a person. You kinda have to think about that one.
