HILLARY CLINTON?.........SERIOUSLY? DO YOU HAVE A SHORT MEMORY?

Travel Gate?....the files on her desk?  C'mon people, you're not that stupid. How about when she left the White House? She left with a lot of the Silverware.......and the art hanging on the walls?
     You people out there don't RECALL THAT?  You can't be that stupid. When they left, Clintons people drained bottles of Elmers glue into the computer key boards destroying them.
     I've got the press clippings. I don't forget anything. How about the 200 crooks Slick Willie let go on the last day of his term? He commuted the sentences of those crooks.
     I've got the list. You can also get it it's on the internet.
     And a lot of you want TO VOTE HILLARY?
Don't you people read, research? My God, at least read the polls of what YOU, the American people think, that is IF YOU THINK.
    Unless you've all swallowed the Karl Marx tonic, failed to graduate high school, or got knocked over the head, GROW THE FUCK UP.

MY BUCKET LIST

• The year before I was born, my father and mother went to the World's Fair in New York City, took pictures. In 1963 ( I think) I went to the same area in New York where the World's Fair was being held, took my kids and shot pictures. Showed them to Mom and Dad. Wow, they said, things change.
• I've been to the top of the tower in Seattle, same in New York. 
• I've been to the top of Pike's Peak (almost fell over - lack of oxygen)
• Been to the Vatican - twice - renewed my faith there. Was down in the cellar to say hello to all the dead Popes. I met Pope Paul, once, in New York, briefly. He was there when the Pieta came to Manhattan.
• No kidding, I literally bumped into Pope John Paul on the street in Denver. He was at the end of a long line of Cardinals awaiting the go signal to file into the Cathedral. He looked tired, no security around him which I thought was unusual. I said hello and offered to get him a chair while he was waiting. He was very grateful, but the line started before I got back with water and the chair. What a great guy.
• Astounded by Rome, breathtaking. I was inside the prison cells in the Coliseum where the Christians had to wait before being thrown to the lions. 
• Munich, I stood on the steps of the Reich's bldg Hitler used as his back drop for his craziness.
• I've been to the Alamo three times and in my heart, wished I had been there with them. One more rifle, it could have made the difference.
• I flew right seat - ONCE - in a B-17. There's something in my heart that tugs at me about that airplane. I know every inch of the fortress and the 13 guns on board. It's like a ghost in my closet.
• Every time I see a newscast of the English Parliament, and the Prime Minister addressing the
  
  Body, he stands there with his hand on a box on that table. That's English Law. I'll always remember the day I walked through that room with a friend and was allowed to stand right there, and place my hand on that very box, courtesy of the Lord Chancellor of the Exchequer.
• More to come, on the public record.

ON HER DEATHBED - WHAT SHE TOLD ME

She didn't know she was going, neither did I at that moment, so we talked freely.
     " You know, if I had it to do all over again, I wouldn't have worried so much about my weight, you know,......my shape. I would have eaten more ice cream, and less card board crackers." Then she laughed.
     " I made a lot of mistakes," I said, " and I was always haunted by a lot of them. Hauling a lot of regret around." She said - oh, I don't, I never did.
     I always forgave myself for my own stupidity. Never did those things again, never tried to hurt anyone else, cause I felt lousy about it. That was the hardest thing, she told me.
     You always feel lousy about yourself.
     The nurse came by and wheeled her over to X-ray and we chatted about things on the way down and back. The nurse said, " you two are amazing, everybody on the floor are talking about you."
     Jan said " why' that?"  The nurse said that there was so much positiveness coming out of the two of us, everyone wanted to drop by and talk to us. " haven't you noticed everyone in the floor has dropped by?" she said.
     Jan said, " we get that a lot. Three hours after her X-ray, back in the room, she asked if I had fed the dog, as we held hands, I kissed her as she rolled over in the bed and peacefully died at 55.

" DO IT AGAIN !, only, this time, don't be such a gentleman !!"

There are only things guys can say to each other that they can never say to women. That's one of them. ( It actually happened to me)
     For decades, women have complained about men being quiet, locked up, silent, expressionless for keeping their emotions out of the relationship.
    Do you know what that phrase does to a man when his lover whispers that in his ear? Understand how that would shake him up? Question the very core of his manliness? Question the essence of his role as lover?
    Are you willing to listen to him discuss that with YOU?......I don't think so.
    It has only been in the last thirty to forty years that I've noticed women lose the delicate femininity, tact and diplomacy that they had 'back in the day,' and now acquired a sledge hammer delivery of Slugger the Wharf Rat in their relationships with boyfriends and husbands. Yelling, hitting, shoving and coarse dialogue between men and women fills the air now.
    Filthy language coming from both sides of the bed, often in front of the kids, now fills the home, car, and front yard.
    Making Love has been replaced with " jumping her bones" or street slang like " DOING HER." Sexual relations between young women and men seems to have been reduced to automobile lube jobs at the Octopus Car Wash.
    The 21st Century young man's quest for the perfect marriage now must consist of corralling someone young lady fresh off the back of a motorcycle, hopefully not to laden with tattoos and a long list of motorcycle boyfriends, and settling down.
   

Any hope of marrying a virgin bride hauling her off to a picket fence farm and deflowering her on the first night is as unrealistic as an honest used car salesman.
    Such is our culture in America as we wend our way deeper into a fastly deteriorating 21st Century.

Otis McDonald, 80, of Chicago - Rest in Peace, Buddy

Why would a cowboy from Tucson Az praise a city dwellin ' black man from inner Chicago you ask?   Because the passing of Otis McDonald heralds the death of a man who stood up for principal of self defense, safety, and the rights of city dwellers EVERYWHERE to be able to defend themselves if attacked, and that in a city proclaimed the "Murder Capital of America by millions everywhere else in our Country. He stood up and defended the right of Chicago folks to arm themselves in the face of murders on the streets, to defeat the stupid law of anti-gun legislation that forbade ordinary folks from protecting themselves against street punks.

Otis McDonald - say it. He's a hero for all Chicago. Grab yourself a pistol, stick it in your pocket, purse, wherever and when attacked, threatened, God forbid, I hope you DON'T have to use it, but as Col Samuel Colt once said - " better to have it and not need it, than need it and NOT have it."

    Otis, dead at 80. Cancer.

Bill and Hillary Clinton, "back to the future"

" In the 1994 State of the Union Speech, he happily appropriated what had long been Republican issues: speaking with feeling on crime and VALUES. People said, he looked Good
     And I agreed. In fact...in struck me he that he was a better actor than my old boss, Ronald Reagan. - thoroughly engaged by the text, emoting with ease, showing that jaw, glistening eyes. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed, in those days after the speech, telling Democrats, "Your guy - He's just...an actor!!." It was fun - made 'em crazy. He was radiating a greater sense of competence......Peggy Noonan, speech Writer from her book  " Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
     All this from Mr. Clinton just 20 years ago. And now, just two years short of the crowning of Mrs Clinton, we get the same show, all over again. Act 3.

Re-Fi mortgages

No matter what mortgage brokers, or more properly, sales people tell you, whatever they say, it will usually be

• an overstatement if they are trying to entice you about something good
• or an understatement if there is a hitch
• it will take at least twice to three times AS LONG to finish up - ask the question, neighbor and then, whatever they say, add two months to it.
• ask for references from them, and watch their eyes. If they dart down and away, " DANGER, WILL ROBINSON - DANGER." (...they lie)
• whatever fees are mentioned, write them down on your own note pad. 
• Get it in writing - DOESN'T MEAN A THING. Getting it in writing guarantees nothing. Every aspect of your contractual agreement can be broken at their will. Your hirng an attorney will cost you your own funds to bring them to heel. 
• You ultimately will get what you want after frustration city. Look forward to delay after delay after delay.
• Financial institutions operate in what is known as "smokestack" environments. One department does not know what the other is doing and rarely talk to each other
• Good Luck
