Flashback - Where I was six years ago today

I thought about where I was and what I was doing on September eleventh, 2001. I was at Hilltop Preparatory School in Radnor, giving an estimate on a new fire alarm system. Today, I also was at the same school, replacing an exhaust fan, when the fire alarm went off at 9:03 AM. The alarm was a false one, but sent chills down my spine for a different reason. Six years ago today, America was changed, and almost 3000 people paid for this change with their lives. Thousands more have been sickened by toxins in NYC, and God knows how many more have died. Meanwhile, a token gesture today by the President to me wasn't enough. Mr. Bush... Quit side stepping this aggression of yours and either devote ALL of your energy to finish what you started in Iraq and elsewhere, or resign. And take Cheney and the rest of your cabal with you. America and it's citizens are fed up with you and your stonewalling, as Johnson did in the sixties in southeast Asia. Were are not stupid. We (even the youth of this country) are on to what you and yours are all about. We know about physics. We know about media manipulation, we know about mouthpieces like Bill O'Reilly and the others at FAUX who continue to this day to spew falsehoods about that fateful day. Give up, and while your at it, tell that guy who dresses up in drag to quit demeaning the first responders in NYC by running as as some super 911 hero to get votes. He ain't fooling anyone anymore. And neither are you. Remember 9/11/01

Memories Of Graduation

Memories Of Graduation I posted this You Tube link on My Space the other day, in the hope of trying to sway my Son to go back to Upper Darby High School. I don't know if he watched it, but he told me today that he wanted to return to Upper Darby High School and get a "real diploma", as both myself, his Mother,Brother, and Sisters have received in the past. Only thing is, I'm sure I will find resistance from the Upper Darby School Board, along with certain teachers and administrators.Well So be it! I have my own "options" to put "on the table". They surely know this, and so does my attorney. My advise? Let sleeping dogs lie. Cheers.

Airplanes Over Delco

It seems that no power on earth can stop the FAA from implementing the new flight plan over Delaware County, Our Congressman, Senators, and State Legislators have run into the immovable Federal bureaucracy. Your advice to buy earplugs, though facetious, is what we have been left with as an alternative.Beyond the noise the added flights will cause, who will we call if a tragedy happens. I'd love to have that number. Are we who live in Delaware County so unimportant that saving time for travelers will endanger our good and hard working people. My question is who profits from this action? Who is behind this push to serve the few while hurting millions. I don't have the answer, but I know someone does.The implications of this decision will have long lasting and negative effects for everyone who lives in Delco. I called the FAA to find the person behind this misguided action, needless to say I was "disconnected". I applaud Andy Reilly and Joe Sestak for fighting the good fight, and I find ridiculous suggestions to cause delays at the airport.What I do know is that I don't want to live in a flight path and if someday I'm in a position to join those working to fight this catastrophe I will work for our community. Meanwhile, Editorials, hard working officials and citizens who will make their voices heard is the best chance we have to stop the FAA.

Wild Bill And The Date Rape Caper

I just watched "Dateline" on NBC with "Wild bill" Stanton. He had a segment about what men would do if they saw another man slip a "date rape" drug into a woman's drink while they went to the bathroom. Amazingly, not ONE man intervened! In fact, several were gung ho in knowing what they think had happened and one even had the balls to walk down the beach under the boardwalk for "sloppy seconds"! I have one question for these losers. What if it was your Mother or Sister or Wife or Girlfriend? Would you react differently? Would you try to stop the predator? You see, twice in my life I had to deal with predators of this caliber. The first time in 1980, involved a former GF who was raped by some heathen. I would and still would to this day kill him in a slow painful way if I had the chance, Yes, I am that kind of guy. The second, in 1988, involved my wife at the former"Divine's" in Upper Darby. She was slipped a "Mickey" by some spic with pock marks right in front of me, only 15 feet away with Joe Stefferi, a local entertainer and musician. They tried (the scumbag and his three friends, one a woman no lie) to pull her out the side door. Only by chance, Joe (Who knew my wife) stopped playing the piano and yelled to me. The scumbags left her and ran out the door to a waiting car. Paul Schneider, a former homicide detective and CID operative, also came to her aide. Paul and both of us are friends, and he couldn't believe what had transpired right in front of him. Back to "Dateline"... In all of the stories, only one girl didn't let Wild Bill in the door. My advise? Don't trust ANYONE. you'll sleep better at night. And, if you live in Upper Darby, especially Stonehurst, beware.. There are sick fucks roaming the streets at night.

Have A Great Labor Day!

Yes, it's Sunday, a beautiful day here in Delaware County. I've noticed that this blog has recently received minimal comments. My belief is that most Delconians are too busy enjoying the holiday, either locally or down the shore. Take a look at the video above, and kindly give me your opinion of it. My opinion is that we are headed to a dictatorship, one that makes Hitler look like a child playing in traffic. Cheers and have a safe and enjoyable weekend holiday.

I Haven't Got A Clue..

I found this in my e-mail inbox: World's first human accelerator (50 drummers drumming, 15 dancers moving, 5 video makers projecting, and one accelerator ring). nitty gritty: date: Friday, 7 September 2007 location: northwest corner of 2nd & Race run times: 7:45 PM, 8:30 & 9:30 (each set is approximately 20 minutes) rain date: it won't rainurl: http://www.principlesofuncertainty.org/admission charge: none As you may know, particle accelerators basically smash things up just to see what happens. Our experiment will basically take the same approach with people in place of subatomic particles. The "thinking" here is that the chance of something interesting happening may increase whenever you bring lots of people together.Our particular experiment was designed with the help of the kind experts at Fermilab http://www.fnal.gov/. Their machine achieves about 2 million proton-anti proton collisions per second. This project has no federal funding so we're shooting for about 25 every 20minutes. The experiments will be free and open to the public. More info & a FAQ here: http://principlesofuncertainty.org/ http://principlesofuncertainty.org/FAQ.html I did some research and found that this person is behind this mysterious "black" project. I cannot attend, being that my wife's birthday is the next day. but to those who do, please fill me in on the outcome.. Cheers.

Self Control

Yes, I deleted the post about Iran. I keep telling myself not to post such babble here. So I have a new blog to do that. Cheers.

Abandoned Bunnies

This afternoon my Son and I were cutting our neighbors lawn. Nick had just cut over a section of grass when the neighbor motioned for him to turn off the mower. To my surprise the bunnies were unscathed, huddled in their shallow boro. Earlier in the week, my wife saw a dead rabbit who was hit by a car at the top of our street. I'm wondering if it was these little one's Mommy. If so, I doubt if they have a chance to live, being that they are so little with no one to guard them or nourish them. We had domesticated bunny rabbits back when we were first married. One of them got pregnant and died after delivering five bunnies. My wife and I tried to feed them everything that we were told to by our vet,but to no avail. one by one they all died of starvation. It was sad and frustrating. What a shame for these bunnies..

Gil Spencer Has A Blog!

I read about it this morning in the Daily Times. Good to see that Gil is finally getting into the Blogosphere. I had e-mailed Gil several times in the past to become a contributor of this blog, but no bites. It would have been interesting to see the comments that would have come after one of his "Bush" loving posts lol. I guess maybe that he had come across one of my posts directed toward him. If so, then I couldn't blame him one bit for refusing. I actually do like Gil, have met him a few times, and thought that his article that he did about Tommy Geromichalos was sincere and started the ball rolling to keep St.Cyril's School open. So I look forward to reading his blog, and maybe post a comment or two. Cheers. P.S. The link to his blog is not working as of 10:50 AM. P.S.S. His blog is up and working.. Find Anyone's Email Address
