Why I think Charlie Davies is a selfish tool.
Probably why I think Charlie Davies is a selfish tool.... .. when my brother broke his neck in a pool accident at a neighbor's party (where alcohol was served) he had the opportunity to sue (and was even encouraged to do so by friends and family). Did he sue? no. Why? he took responsibility, even though he was not fully to blame.. its been 3 years since that accident and he just started a part time job. he has struggled to pay bills and his mortgage... his family (wife and two kids) had to get by any way they could.. draining life savings... draining my family physically, emotionally and economically.
Did he make $300,000 a year playing a game? no.
was he able to get up from his accident less than 2 years later and run? no
My brother walks now, with the assistance of crutches, but he will always be partially paralyzed.
Is my brother a stronger and better man than Charlie Davies? Most definitely.
Is he richer then Charlie Davies will ever be? yes cause he has the dignity to take responsibility for his actions.
charlie davies take some responsibility in your life, you are lucky to be alive and make any money doing the thing you love. Some are not as lucky.

Coffee just not doing it today.. But man oh man what a weekend
Had a great weekend. Rode 15 miles on the bike trails of PG County.
Why is that when I brought this up in conversation with a co-worker (who is from racist Prince Williams County, VA) she immediately asked, "Was it safe"?
White people, who have never lived in an urbanized area, are whack.....
Which leads me to an observation I had while on my 15 mile bike escapade. Where are all the white children at???? Sunday was a beautiful fall day. Each and every playground that I came in contact with (PG County bike trails connect several smaller parks with actual playgrounds with jungle gyms and all) was thriving with children. All whooping and hollaring as they were having fun. The only thing absent... NO WHITE CHILDREN. Where were they? I know my neighborhood and the towns surrounding it abound with children who are of the caucasian variety. Since it was beautiful, kids should be flocking to playgrounds with swing sets and slides and monkey bars.
Do white children (or more to the point their parents) just not do public parks?
Sad.

Occupy Wall Street: Farming is Direct Action
First let me state, I am one of the 99% and I support the OWS movement. The above picture, by Lee Ranaldo, clearly states my position on what should be done. All the over educated under employed protesters on Wall Street who went to college and are having difficulty paying their student loans, let me suggest the following (and please do not take offense). Note, I want this movement to grow and consume the rest of America.
How about we, the under employed/over educated Occupy Wall Street protesters seek employment on America's farms as farm hands, in America's non-union factories on the line, in America's ditches as ditch diggers or in America's fast food emporiums. Bring this cause to the under educated working class in order that they may learn and join this movement. This movement need not be so selfish, as I see a lot of the OWS who want THEIR student loans forgiven, THEIR pay from corporate America to increase. Could this not be the same selfishness that is giving Wall Street and Corporate America the power they yield at a cost to us? I ask in all honesty, what about the REAL 99%, the working poor, the fast food emporium burger flipper, the chain store mall worker, or the migrant farm hand. A majority of the over educated OWS protesters were educated and prepped to work in the very companies that have their hands in the Wall Street coffers.
To you I say, Take direct action!
Get your hands dirty!
Thank you Lee Ranaldo for the use of your picture. More of Lee Ranaldo's Occupy Wall Street photos can be found on Sonic Youth's website.

Netflix: Waffles and Flip Flops
How Netflix continues to have any customers currently is beyond me.....
Customer confidence in this one time champion of the progressive online business model is at an all time low. I predict CEO Reed Hastings will be gone before the year's end. If the plans for his removal are not currently in the works they should be...
Netflix CEO Hastings on Qwikster spinoff: Just kidding!

From our heroes Occupy Wall Street; who are occupying Wall Street
Official Statement from Occupy Wall Street - this statement was voted on and approved by the general assembly of protesters at Liberty Square: Declaration of the Occupation of New York City
As we gather together in solidarity to express a feeling of mass injustice, we must not lose sight of what brought us together. We write so that all people who feel wronged by the corporate forces of the world can know that we are your allies.
As one people, united, we acknowledge the reality: that the future of the human race requires the cooperation of its members; that our system must protect our rights, and upon corruption of that system, it is up to the individuals to protect their own rights, and those of their neighbors; that a democratic government derives its just power from the people, but corporations do not seek consent to extract wealth from the people and the Earth; and that no true democracy is attainable when the process is determined by economic power. We come to you at a time when corporations, which place profit over people, self-interest over justice, and oppression over equality, run our governments. We have peaceably assembled here, as is our right, to let these facts be known.
They have taken our houses through an illegal foreclosure process, despite not having the original mortgage.
They have taken bailouts from taxpayers with impunity, and continue to give Executives exorbitant bonuses.
They have perpetuated inequality and discrimination in the workplace based on age, the color of one’s skin, sex, gender identity and sexual orientation.
They have poisoned the food supply through negligence, and undermined the farming system through monopolization.
They have profited off of the torture, confinement, and cruel treatment of countless nonhuman animals, and actively hide these practices.
They have continuously sought to strip employees of the right to negotiate for better pay and safer working conditions.
They have held students hostage with tens of thousands of dollars of debt on education, which is itself a human right.
They have consistently outsourced labor and used that outsourcing as leverage to cut workers’ healthcare and pay.
They have influenced the courts to achieve the same rights as people, with none of the culpability or responsibility.
They have spent millions of dollars on legal teams that look for ways to get them out of contracts in regards to health insurance.
They have sold our privacy as a commodity.
They have used the military and police force to prevent freedom of the press.
They have deliberately declined to recall faulty products endangering lives in pursuit of profit.
They determine economic policy, despite the catastrophic failures their policies have produced and continue to produce.
They have donated large sums of money to politicians supposed to be regulating them.
They continue to block alternate forms of energy to keep us dependent on oil.
They continue to block generic forms of medicine that could save people’s lives in order to protect investments that have already turned a substantive profit.
They have purposely covered up oil spills, accidents, faulty bookkeeping, and inactive ingredients in pursuit of profit.
They purposefully keep people misinformed and fearful through their control of the media.
They have accepted private contracts to murder prisoners even when presented with serious doubts about their guilt.
They have perpetuated colonialism at home and abroad.
They have participated in the torture and murder of innocent civilians overseas.
They continue to create weapons of mass destruction in order to receive government contracts.*
To the people of the world,
We, the New York City General Assembly occupying Wall Street in Liberty Square, urge you to assert your power.
Exercise your right to peaceably assemble; occupy public space; create a process to address the problems we face, and generate solutions accessible to everyone.
To all communities that take action and form groups in the spirit of direct democracy, we offer support, documentation, and all of the resources at our disposal.
Join us and make your voices heard!

Profiting off of TRAGEDY!??!
Why is Giant attempting to profit off of a tragedy?
I don't want to remember the horror of that day.
I doubt Giant will close on the 11th. Shame on Giant for only thinking of their profits.

No regulars so i'll type about my kidney
<p>I'm sitting at the transplant center waiting for my cytogam infusion. Which means sitting on my ass for four hours while meds slowly drip into my veins. My donor, at one time, came in contact with a herpes type virus that lies dormant in their organs. I knew the risks and signed off on taking a possibly infected kidney. The doctors informed me that 8 cytogam infusions would help my body not contract the possible virus (a type of herpes). Today's infusion is number seven, the eighth and final is scheduled for a month from now.
Infusion appointments are long and slow. To complicate matters, i was late to the appointment by 10 minutes, and since the cytogam is made to order here at the hospital I have to always wait up to and hour if I'm late by five or ten minutes.
So here i sit waiting for my meds to arrive.

Nine fourteen the next day
I survived Irene. Was asleep by 1:00/1:30! The 3 espressos i had at 4:00 yesterday did nothing!
The power that was Irene was quite impressive. Would love to experience something like that again, however, my home would not like to experience that again. Too stressful for all involved.
Thanks for tuning in.
12:39am Irene has brought it
Wind and rain.. Irene not playing around.
Kinda crazy and nerve racking.
Can't stare out window any longer, as the trees are to big and the destruction they could cause freaks me out
Every few minutes the lights flicker, but we haven't lost power yet FINGERS CROSSED KNOCK ON WOOD
Its inevitable though.!
Not gonna sleep tonight.
Hopefully the house is still here tomorrow and not blown out to sea.

Corn Dogs
OLD NEWS
Who doesnt love a corn dog on a stick...
I remember, in my youth, going to Marriott's Great America to ride the demon and tidalwave and eat food from a stick! Chocolate covered frozen bananas-on-a-stick and CornDogs-on-a-stick.
Is eating corndogs now the equivalent of politicians kissing babies?
Must a politician eat a corndog in Iowa to get elected?
Or Just something phallic?
Yep phallic...

Prednisone and the man boob phenomena
On June 7, 2011 my wife gave me her kidney in order that I can survive, keep living, live a close to normal life.... IT WAS THE GREATEST GIFT I HAVE EVER RECIEVED... AND AM INDEBTED TO HER FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE... i will eventually go into more detail on this blog, regarding this event, in the future (after I have gathered my thoughts)... but for now i want to discuss the aftermath or one part of the aftermath:
Man Boobs
or Moobs if you are so inclined.
See, in order that my body doesn't reject the new kidney, that is now inside me, I am given large quantities of drugs, medications or pills. I average about 40 pills a day. All different kinds of pills.
It's successful in that i have limited side effects to the pills that I ingest.
However, there is one side effect that i have not been able to get away from....The Man Boob phenomena. I believe i have gained these training bra sized lumps from the steroid prednisone.
I take my shirt off in the front of the mirror and think to myself "who is that pubescent little girl standing in front of me, OHHHH it is none other than myself"
I find myself jiggling top side as I walk the halls of my office... i bounce as I take the stairs to my basement... and i protrude through a shirt, that just a few weeks ago was fitting nicely.
Now that I have had the stent removed (another good story for later) and have the ok from my doctors and nurses at the Hume-Lee Transplant Clinic, I have taken on a more ACTIVE exercise regiment.
Power Walking & Some Running for no less than 30 minutes a day. This WILL be increased to 45 minutes over the next few days with bicycling and swimming added.
I am hoping with the removal of the prednisone ( i started taking 5 pills a day after surgery, now down to 2 pills a day) from my pill regiment and the addition of more ACTIVE exercising, i will not only lose the 15 pounds my doctor wants i will reduce the size of my man lumps.
Thanks
Mighty!!!!
PS: if someone knows of a nice, cheap, clean & year round pool please contact me.
Thanks
The French love le NinjaMonkey
what's up with that?
