EVERYTHING

i have ever learned was delivered through the mentorship

of my mother, my brother

and our Popa

(and a few good teachers and books)

what learned you?

PS: be a mentor

it's deja vu

(all over again)

i can smell the burning of the ash

i can hear the sound of ball on glove

each new season is like falling in love.

PS: the yankees, angels and rangers will compete for american league supremacy

the phillies are the class of the senior circuit

(tho' the marlins, giants, cardinals and braves should make some noise)

particularly the marlins- after all-ozzie is always fit to be tied)

NO REARVIEW MIRROR

Don't look back

(or too far forward)

live in the "now"

HOW YOU RELATE

in this world

depends upon your angle.

how this world relates upon you

depends upon your vision.

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION CYCLE

Hope your holding as much interest as i.

i am fascinated by the theatre.

i'll put aside comments made by the candidates

and their response (or lack of) to their talk-show mouthpiece (for now)...

i want to talk aboot socialism.

i ask...

is a public school system socialism?
is unemployment compensation?
is medicare or medicaid?
are crop subsidies or oil subsidies?
or "income tax"

certainly social security is, isn't it?

what aboot pac monies
lobby groups?
civic associations
and teacher and other public and/or private
trade labor unions?


do you hear where this is going...

look in the mirror

is the answer now clearer

{we live in a constitutional republic}

an enduring and evolving statehood that has tried to mix the best attributes of all systems that stood and fell before...


PS: go express your opinion

at facebook,

any blog domain, or

and especially,

at the ballot box

on election day.


PSS: people all over this earth are dying for the right to vote

ALIVE AND WELL
