My Year

I been layed off now for four weeks and just payed 873 dollars to get my car engine fixed, and one cylinder still aint working.

Well that was the downside. Iam eeking it out til things improve and am otherwise O.K.

In view of drug bust at my town's music store

Drugs-

Just seen in the Progress how Maple Shade Music Store was busted and closed.
Its a shame for Sid, my old guitar teacher. (He has nothing to do with that anyhow).
He should be a school music teacher pulling a nice salary but is just a small time teacher or something. He is really good on piano and was at guitar.


Anyhow, what gets me is they said Jack who had the cocaine could get ten years in jail.
I do not believe in the country's laws and changed perspective through the media. O.K. I don't think people should do drugs and it is against the law, but say make the sentence one year. OR less!

I think these substances are no different then someone buying beer and drinking it. OK heavier stuff yes, but its the same concept, goal, etc... No different. Pot was probably put on earth for just what people discovered that it does. No, I don't smoke it. Drug free since 1983. I would say 20 percent of the Vo Tech school was always high.
And at least 40% did smoke it but not in school all the time.

I don't think people should use drugs, but say if I were the only person on Earth. I'd have a few plants in case maybe I was depressed. The media has made marijuana smoking more wrong and things like homosexuality acceptable when before that was very shunned. I think some men who are femine and women that are masculine have a few wires crossed and perhaps the drives are not all their fault, but they should stay in celibant state and not twist all society towards the error.

Anyhow, I just can't see someone who in their beliefs says the drugs are ok would get a long jail sentence. MANY will jump all over me and say They should. Did you ever smoke a bowl of hash? Did you ever smoke a joint of some really good stuff?
OK, not good to be hooked on and not good for people driving, working machinery, or family relations etc... It is like drinking too much alchohol takes over your life!!!! But 10 years or whatever for probably a small amount of drugs is to me a greater crime then doing it! And then seizing his property etc... Anyhow people will disagree with me.

Orange you glad.

Well lets get that 800 buck President Bush check in the mail to Stimulate my economy. Being in printing field I know we are in a recession!!!!!!!!

Welcome aboard, Mav~

You now have full admin authority, just like everyone else.

Now if we could get lilolmehere to join and Patty and the Weasels. And if Moe and Gary could be found we'd have everyone back.

ITS COLD!

I know, I know. What I term as cold would be a balmy day for the rest of you. But it has been getting into the very low 60°'s and upper 50°'s here. Remember, that we do not have heaters in our houses. Nor is there any insulation in the walls or ceiling.

I don't own a jacket, sweater or even a long-sleeved shirt. And after almost 14 years on Mau'i (anniversary on the 24th), my blood has really thinned out. The first night I arrived in upcountry Pukalani the temp at 1,000' was 45° and everybody was in any warm clothes they could find and I was in a tank top and shorts, sweating like a stuffed pig. I had just come from California/Nevada (the northern end of both) The day I left Nevada the high temp was -15° and the day I left California, one week later, the temp in the Central Valley was a blazing 35°. It had actually snowed there just before Christmas but didn't last long.

Now, almost 1½ decades later, I guess I am a wimp.

Have a great day, everybody.!

Spam World

Could be a movie.

Anyhow I did really send alot to the Spam Killer software after using the filter "Nigeria."

I figure Iam pulling, well actually haven't added it up, but millions in bank transfers and lottery winning each week.

Most of these "people" do dot even know me. Iam Dear Sir/ Madam.

Sometimes they even apoligize to me, for me not replying to their emails, like its some sad mishap and they can still get the millions of dollars to me.

Here Comes the Sun

It looks like a real nice day out.
Gonna get another coffee and get outside.

Hope everyone has had a good start to their New Year. We've been hectic here, between work, and my Mom, who is living with us, being hospitalized, we've been running like a pack of wolves. David sends a thanks for the birthday wishes. He's been working overtime as they are putting in a new radiology imaging/reading system, and he's the IT guy in charge of it. Training is this week, so I don't see my geek til late. We've had over 2 feet of snow since just before Christmas, but this week it's going fast. The high today was 54!! Unheard of in this part of the country for January. I want to send a happy belated birthday to both Kent (12/31) and his lovely bride, Mrs. K. (12/25). Miss you guys!!! And to Wil- sounds like business is picking up a bit- Glad for ya'!
