we have reached an agreement

to postpone an agreement

until the next election cycle...

hallelujah

(COWARDS)

POPA'S

body is interned in ashes in a urn

near pompano beach

(under a palm tree)

his spirit

burns

within me

& others ...

PS:you're not holding your mouth right...

the new york yankees

scored 12 runs yesterday

in the 1st inning!

1st time ever

Ever

in their long, proud history.

PS: keep watching

every day, it seems you see something new even though you have been watching for all these years...

(metaphor for life)

my pad

(as in the commercial strip upon which i toil)

make a right off vets highway at the 7-11

1st left brings you in to:

on the right, the north end anchor,

"the grand buffet"
1 price all you can eat. (the locals call it "the pig trough " you should see the size of most of their clientele )

((although sundays between about 1:30 & 6:00 the place is packed with the coming majority dressed in their "sunday" best))

next door? a sushi bar. next door? a grand opening--"ghost chili" a tex -mex theme.

2 doors down? anthony's pizzaria

next door? a subway. next door? new york bagel co.

2 doors down

the amazon cafe (salads wraps and smoothies)

3 doors down.

the giant supermarket where i package meat.

5 doors down.

the thai angel restaurant

2 more doors down

the express grill (americanese or something like that) ((the locals think it is a front for the chinese mafia-there is never anyone in there))

next door. Whew!! we are finally at the south end of this pad.

WALMART

walk in the front door and on your right

McDONALDS

now i ask you...what are americans obsession with food?



oh. and out on the far side of this huge parking lot

hugging the highway

that's the 350 seat public house

where i am the svengali of the saute
& fat cats come to eat and play.

EMBELLISHMENT

big word (look it up)

the difference between an auto- biographer

&

a writer...

Friday, July 29, 2011

in his image

look

(it's not rocket science)

even darwin argued to his devout wife

a creator and evolution can co-exist in the same universe.

god created man

((in his image))

to be

self-determined

(with consideration for others)

PS: another moment of zen...

mr. pitts

i enjoy his point of view

(angle of vision)

men's proclivity to sexual scandal may very rightly be gender-biology driven

i offer a repose

what aboot' cleopatra?

i think "power" has much ado'

we just have not had enough .... women in charge

PS: penis vs. vagina?

i am not convinced...

PSS: absolute power corrupts...

PSSS: for every scandalous man

was a willing woman...


and i am absolutely sure

the opposite is true.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

i hope my postings to this point in time have shown:

i care not the complexion of your skin

or your spiritual beliefs,

your gender nor your sexual orientation

your political persuasion or your command of the deposed king's language

(we can work it out- john & paul)

{or your lack in realization of poignant music.}

BOTTOM LINE

At crunch time... can you perform?


PS: that's why we call it work

AT HOME

or with my clan

i am scotch-irish

at work?

i am germanic

PS: me and i are gemini

ANOTHER ASIDE:

1 YOUNG LADY IN THE PUBLIC HOUSE IS A DEAF MUTE.

well, sometimes she jumps up & down and wails' or grunts or shrieks

(i asked: is this your impersonation of courage the cowardly dog?)

another time i said

"sorry, i never studied that non-language"

(god love her) ((do not care what he thinks of me))

i helped train her. if there was ever an example of a teacher failing to communicate some of the very basics

(ie: work clean, clean as you go, food safety, cross contamination,if you empty it -fill it)

she's a whirl-wind. there is more food on the floor than on the plate when we get busy...
i call her hurricane helen ( i am good but i aint no anne sullivan)

please put her at the other end of the cooking line. thank you.

((of course-1 order called that i prepare parmesan encrusted chicken breast for a salad that she would complete.
i walked the chicken to the other end of the line and placed on her table. 2 minutes later she's barking and jumping
in my work station))

"It's On Your Work Table. i thought you were deaf, not blind!"

(funny how when you yell at the hearing impaired they become better lip readers).



((dramatic pause))




Last year we had a cook with let's say a hyperactivity "problem"

clanging knives as if they were drum sticks
howling into the kitchen microphone

i could not take it anymore.

"i think hurricane helen just signed me and said shut up you are giving her a fucking head ache!"

he took offense

PS: he's not with us anymore.

(go figure)

PSS: a few weeks after... after the rush

a hush...

i said to g.m.

(silence is golden)

"that's the sound of no more shaggy"

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

Actions speaker louder than words. walk the talk. where the rubber meets the road...

(enough with the cliches)

i met a man a number of years ago from another country, living and working here legally.
he is a few years younger than i and his english is better than most in the kitchen-yet not good enough
for us to enjoy full conversation. his mind is alert and inquiring...
stock market, 401 k, tell me about...

some periods for him are great, overtime available. he works hard and good.
some not so great. no o.t. (you get used to it but hey, that's the way it works)

i counseled him- go get a part-time job. then arrange your hours between the 2 the best you can.

he did.

now he is working 6 days a week-steady (as i)
he's pulling 60 hours a week(10 or so less than i-i said- he's younger)

our kitchen manager comes to me about 6 months later- i am leaving
transfer-to his betterment.

"who's coming in to replace?"

"no one. front of the house will have to pitch in."

"no no no this is not going to work..."

"they are trying to save money by cutting admin cost."

"hear me out-rico is working 6 days-60 hours for $700 a week.
offer him a day-50 hour work week for same. he will jump at the chance-he speaks spanish
and he will be the lowest paid kitchen manager in the company"
"go sell it to inter-galactic ivory white tower headquarters"

he did (with a little help from his friends)

and now rico is the kitchen boss.

and now rosaria and maria have taken on 2nd jobs...

PS: protect your eggs in multiple baskets...

(don't quit your day job)

at the end of the day...

((i said: no more cliches)

TALKING HEADS II

a balanced budget amendment

"after all, the federal government should be forced to live as middle-class americans"

if that were true-none of us could get a mortgage on a home, finance a new car, or use credit cards

a college education?

forgetabout it- that would be for the rich kids.

PS: what if we had a "balanced budget amendment"

and then another calamity

the federal government would be forced to not fulfill it's constitutional obligation

to protect the american people?

because it was hamstrung financially?

PS: tea is great

especially served with crumpets in england...

TALKING HEADS

On my T.V. set

(or)

A open letter to "the greatest generation"

(sez brokaw)

i am a product of the" silent generation"

mostly

for from there is where

my values were formed.

(claims psychology)

On my T.V set...

"Failure to raise the debt limit is financial armageddon!"

"If we fail to reach agreement by aug. 2 it will trigger a collapse of the financial system worse than lehman brothers"

IF we do not?

we can pay the bond-holders,interest on the debt &
we can pay medicare, medicaid, and social security
military pay is also covered.
(under this scenario)
the federal government will be forced to cut 44% of what remains.
(this is according to the budget office)

"The president has offered $3 in spending cuts for $1 in revenue(tax)increases"
(chris wallace)

Tea-Party representatives will not raise taxes. That's how they got elected.
(they signed a pledge with grover norquist)

((and they promised their constituents.))

so where do we the people go from here?



much more learned people than i seem not to know either...


let me offer this:

the "estados unidos" population rate is nearing 0%
(it will take a decade)

russian,japanese, and germanic populations have been declining for years...

what's exploding in this great country is the # of older people.

young, educated people have awokin'. they are not having children.

they know that their parents may become their children (financially speaking)

who else is going to pay for these entitlements?

as a member of the end of the "baby boomers"

i plead: hey "greatest generation"- i am willing to change the rules.
i am willing to push retirement age and reduce benefits for people my age moving forward...

shared sacrifice.

Tell me now. (we have reached a pivotal point in history to not just kick the can...)

i need to plan.

as to you who have outlived your benefit ((do the frigging math)) and do not need it anyway...
renounce any more gov't checks...

{if f.d.r knew you was gonna live this long

he wouldn't have taken such good care of you.}

PS: rip up your aarp cards

do not become your children and their childrens

beneficiaries

they are your legacy...

THE IRONY

In the previous posting...

as we streaked in-

the check was being presented to the bereaved.

(i think that was why the teacher was so angry)

{ i could see the anchor in his eyes-kip)

i do not blame him

(i did something reckless and stupid and funny and gross

at exactly the wrong moment

yet

everybody there remembers...

and i feel like "house"


not my problem...

STREAKING

( the light fandango)

1975

running naked in public became the fad

(this is not your mother's hula-hoops)

{not no more}

a benefit basketball game betwixt the 2 faculty's of my home town high schools-

to raise $ for the bereaved parents of a girl student whom died in a car crash.

i sat with friends.

Tried to convince 1 to streak with me at 1/2 time

he said: i need beer

we went out back-he chickened as another (whom i had never met, was berating his friend for same)

"you wanna go?"

we went.

in thru the back door

to the foul line

raised our hands-hooped and hollared

spun and run....


i returned to my seat.

a friend said- "you missed it-2 guys just streaked-where were you"

monday at school...

my bestest friend asked

you went to the game-(he did not attend) ((hebrew school-me thinks))

{i'd ask you home for dinner, but we are having hamburgers

and you don't do ham, mosha dayan

and (gross me out, issac temple) we will wash it down

with milk}


i digress...


he asked

who streaked!?

"me and some other guy"

no-you are lying to me.


last class of the day

i am aboot' to leave here living in quiet anonymity

mr. bruener

"silent read chapter 13 as i hand back your tests"

a question from behind

"who won the basketball game?"

ask your classmate

i saw him there...

(i winced)

when he arrived at my desk

he offered my scored test.

i remained eyes down

and took the paper of which he would not let go.

until

i raised my gaze and met him eye to eye...

(if looks could kill)




PS: my bestest was sitting next to me


on the way to separate buses

he exclaimed:


Oh my god!

you streaked at the faculty basketball game!


PSS: and you go work on a kibbutz over summer vacation!


PSS: this was my 2nd foray

or engaged)

a few days later, the spies reported back.


the alpha phi's held their vigil

the candle was passed from sister to sister

and then back to the beginning...

(the pinned or engaged is supposed to blow it out)

"we've been had"

later, at an off campus mixer


the pledge class had to put on a play

for the phi's and their future brothers.

to conclude:

the 7 pledges lit a candle

passed it

and the 7th blew it out and said

"hi, i'm sister x"


ha ha ha ha.....

PS: 15 years later i call ramada in pittsburgh

PILGRIMS

We came to this "new land".

we cleared a forest and built a cabin.

called it home.

we encouraged our children to do the same

they surrounded theirs with white picket fences.

{the american dream}

Now
our forbearers

live in gated community's

with 24 hour security.

what does this forbear

for our children...

NOT YOUR GRANDPA'S WORLD

no more


a woman recently spoke for the house

a woman is secretary of state

another is running for president

as a gop candidate

another heads the i.m.f.

a republican controlled legislature just enabled gay marriage in new york

an african american presides.

i repeat

this is not your grandpa's world

anymore

(he would not recognize this place)

((we've come a long way,slim))

At your age, if you need a department head

to chew your ass...

{and it's my fault?}

then we have much bigger problems

than any label you want to place upon me.

PS: sticks and stones...

PSS: dangling carrots?

eat them.
