Veterans Day 2017


Today is Veteran’s Day in America, and I just want to say to all Your Welcome for my 16 years of service I gave and to all my fellow Veterans out there, enjoy your day !

Parades are great and so are events on Veteran’s Day’s but if you want to thank a Veteran, when you see one just say the following: Thank You For Your Service!

That’s all any Veteran wants, they served not because they had to folks, they served because they wanted to and you all need to remember that. It wasn’t for their own selves I can tell you that, it was to protect the flag, the country and the way of life we all have and to keep safe their loved ones at home and abroad too. So When you see a Veteran in a Wheel chair or walking around stooped over or limping, or handing out poopies, stop and say Thank You For Their service to them, you will make their day and they love the respect it means to them!  It’s just a simple thing but it means so much to all of us who served.

Advice and my Writings/ and Contact Info


As time goes on I wonder at times how long I may last in this world. Bodies change they gain weight, they lose weight they get stronger they get weaker, backs get injured, necks and parts give out sometimes. We all go through it as we age and the craziest part is not the fact we age, but the way the younger people think about the elder people. They believe because you’re older you can’t do what you did before, or you’re sexually dead, or not worth the effort. The truth is most elder people have more to give than the younger generation may think, experience does count for something. Just, a commentary on it is all. I tire of being disrespected because i hit my sixties these days, it’s a sad commentary to say, some people are rude, inconsiderate and just out right full of shit. anyway that said on with life and my blog.

I write little books and I find the hardest part of writing is making a story long enough to get it into a book to sell. I end up writing shorts is all, so I am deciding to slow down a bit and write, and see is it helps. I have been told a few of my better works are too short and some folks want me to write longer stories, they like my plots and that I have to be careful with punctuation and grammar, but write. My wife says I get better the more I write and yesterday handed me a list of Naval Stories as Titles and told me to write them out as I told them over the years and make them into one book. Like a book of Naval tales for all to read and enjoy so I have her list, and the thoughts in my mind stirring my mental pot so to say, I will see if it stews up and cooks well, before I do so.

In the meantime I am currently working on writing a murder mystery and trying to make it long enough to make into a real book. I am not big on dragging out my stories so far, which is why most of my works are short. I am learning though that people want more for their money, and they deserve a better plot and longer story to keep their interest for their money so to say. So I am going to make an effort with this one and see if I can lengthen it before I make a book out of it.

I also joined Kboards, and posted a profile there and a list of my books and their covers some too. Trying to see what makes other Authors tick so to say and what they think of my work and maybe get some advice on my stuff. I also try to post my books and blogs on Twitter, FaceBook, Pinterest and other web sites if I can.

Yes or No America?


Question folks a big one, How long will the American people allow a man who sexually harassed and puts down women run the country?

How Long will America allow Trump to take money from other countries and get away with it?

How Long will Americans put up with a President who can’t put any la wor bill through Congress legally and get something done for real?

There will be no wall between America and Mexico folks, is it ever gets built it will be worthless anyway!

What happened to bringing back jobs from overseas his big promise, it’s not happening in case no one noticed!

He has torn ObamaCare apart and down and left millions with no health coverage, but can’t create a health care bill or law!

Pulled us from The Paris Climate Agreement and  isolated America in many ways, why?

Russia helped him get elected and Americans let it happen, his men Manafort, Gates Popadoupulous, and already arrested. His son in law Jared Kushner next in line and so is Roger Stone and Donald trump Jr.. Do you really believe they met with russians for no reason? Do you really believe they did so without Trump’s permission or knowledge? I don’t !

As Special Counsel Mueller moves forward in his investigation into Russian Collusion  , do you really think the arrests are over with, I Don’t, more will come!

This  man Trump is mentally unstable and able to be controlled by others even while in office, look at how Bannon and Kushner and others have done it so far! Sad isn’t it?

He is mentally unstable and dangerous, he is narcissistic, has no empathy for anyone, so what is he doing in The White House Oval Office and The West Wing?

Does Congress not have the guts and balls to Impeach this man or remove him from office by way of the 25th amendment?  You tell me folks?

I know many believe that to remove Trump will leave us with Mike Pence who they believe is more dangerous and that is probably true, but if Trump is removed and pence moves up he too can be blocked and controlled by Congress, especially if he attempts to Pardon Trump and his people!

I say Congress should get off it’s ass and remove Trmp before he destroys America, don’t you Agree?

Yes or No Just leave one or the other please!

 

 

 

Why I write and others do!


I write because I am, I write because I have stories in my head and they keep me awake and out of bed, I write because it keeps me alive and not dead. I write so people learn or are entertained, I write so the thoughts stuck in my brain can be released to paper and the internet and read by people and to give them my emotions, my hates, my loves, my pains, my joy and so people can understand who I am inside, for as a person I have nothing to hide! Does that make sense folks, I hope so!

Writing for me is not whether the punctuation is correct or the spelling or grammar, it is whether I can convey the thought, the idea, the story that drifts in my mind as I walk around in life daily. I stop sometimes and go wait I should tell this to somebody and see  what they think, so I stop and memorize it, or jot it down, and it becomes a story that I expand on. In life we all have interests, and we like to follow them of course, but how many of us stop and write them down, whether it is a thing we lived through, or saw and experienced ourselves? You tell me folks!

Writing is also a way for me to deal with my PTSD I suffer from from my childhood days and my military service. I write sometimes of romances I had or the women I met over time and who romantically interested me, or still do. I find romance  something that can be intriguing and interesting, I also like to do murder mysteries and exploration stories now and them. I have done at least three books of poetry, which express feelings and emotions in such a way some say, they can feel the passion and love in them. What did I learn while attempting to write all the time, the emotional release is vital, and it make sme easier to live with. It helps me deal with pain, inner demons and sometimes suffering. It’s not the same all the time, so I never know what I may write next, most writers are like me in many ways, some of us are loners, we get lonely and dream and write. Writers  see things in story form most of the time, or may be walking around and taken back in time to a place they have been before and suddenly relive it on paper. So many things can trigger a writer to write. It’s all about a personality trait called a working mind and big mouth that can’t really talk out loud but can on paper. I hope the description makes sense to all of you, for it is who we are. Writers are not strange we are quirky though, emotional, sometime unstable or angry, or sometimes overly romantic or sad, we run on the emotional waves we feel. That’s my way of telling all why I write and why I believe others do too. I hope, it makes others think a little better about writers like myself and other writers I know, who I admire each day for their persistence and grit, and stick to attitude!

Are you like me, and need an outlet for your pain, angry, emotions, stress’s and tensions, or feelings? Write em down, form them into a story, an article or a verse and let the world here you, write and produce and publish it for all to see. It will help others understand you, help someone with their own problems and make you feel better! Do what makes life easier for you, Write I Do!

 

 

Dark Secrets Overcome


I wrote a true story and turned it into an E-book. Now what I am about to give access to is a real story that I lived through and survived folks, so when you read this please understand it is a never ending situation, because, even though the guilty man recently died, the repercussions will live on forever through my family. This shows how it affects children, parents and yes the next generations too.

Happy Sunday/ Funday for all!


At 61 years old, I keep trying to live life to the fullest one day at a time and firmly believe all should do the same. I don’t ask anyone for anything, nor force anyone to do anything, nor bother anyone. My home is paid for, my cars are paid for and I am retired, but I have to look ahead as all have to that’s for sure. All should do the same plan for the future folks so you can live well in your old age. that’s my personal advice for all out there!

I have lived a life of pain and pleasure, hurt and hopes and possibly the best of love and romance and doing what I love, helping others. I try to help family when I can if I have it and they request it right. I also make donations to organizations like The Cancer Society of America, for my wife and I are both victims and survivors for now.

I write blogs and books too folks, but short ones it’s what i do in my spare time and I try to tell stories sometimes of my life, sometimes of others and a few times of imagination. My lil books don’t make me rich and I am lucky to have sold very few, but they are out there and they are my legacy to my children and grandchildren, who I never get to see.

I have seen the world because I served my country for 16 years and I found no matter what nationality, color or creed people are the same, all want love, all want respect and to be treated decently. You can make friends with anyone folks if you try hard enough and compromise and be yourself, but polite. Just a little advice is all that is.

Onward I go now,  like I said I write and make stories into little books and post them in Amazon’s Kindle E-books for sale. They range from 5.98 down to .99 cents a book. Some are life stories, and some are books of poems I did, or made up stories of murders mysteries I did. If you want to see for yourself, here is the link to my Author’s Page with my books-   https://www.amazon.com/William-McCurrach/e/B00CQMGTSM/ref=ntt_dp_epwbk_0 Take a look for yourselves.

Life is too Short/ Enjoy it !


The Dreams of men, we all have them, some of us dream of just being family men, holding a decent job, providing for those we love and carrying on in that way. Others want to be important, or politicians and such. Me I am happy with who I am and how I have lived my life. I ask for no help from anyone really, I am self sufficient so to say, I served my country for 16 years and I live a quiet life with my wife.

In each of us is a drive to do somethings, I did mine I joined the Navy, I traveled the world, met people from many countries and served with some of the best in the world. Learned from the best I say and I am proud never once did any ship I wa son, when I was on it have an engineering disaster of any kind or lose a boiler or piece of equipment or fail to answer the call. Thanks to the men I served with they were all proud individuals and always alert to problems. I am Proud of what I did, and I don’t care what anyone else says or does, I served.

I never fully finished High School, but I did get my GED here in Connecticut, then went in the service after working at factories for some years. Sadly all the big factories are gone here in my area and I am older now and retired due to medical conditions. I survived cancer in 2013, have two daughter sin Pittsburgh I love and always will even if I can’t see them or my six grandchildren. I am not rich and can’t afford to send presents, but I always will love all of them. The important things are all I can take care of, myself health wise and my wife too. I stand by her side and take her in for her cancer check-ups, and shots and blood draws as needed, We live in peace each day and do what we consider is most important to both of us.

Life is not about how many material things you have folks, or how much money, it’s about helping and being with those you love most. It’s about dedication, commitments and belonging, and being with those you love most. Do me a favor folks, don’t worry about much else except the most important things for the rest will work out, ok!

The best advice i can give all out there is what I am saying here, live life each day like there is no tomorrow, for one day that will be the truth. Don’t hold back do what ya have to today, for tomorrow may never come for you or those you love, and you will be remembered when you go, for what you did for others not for being selfish. Be realize folks, life is short!

 

 

The Innocents Trump hurt are his own children!


As the Russia case continues, Trump must be getting worried, for not far from Manafort and Gates and Popadopalous is Jared Kushner and his actions. He took actions during the campaign that no one should have attending the same meetings as Trump JR., with the russians in Trump Tower. His Security clearances should be lifted for all he has done. The problem is this as I see it, how much did DOnald Trump stop and think about his family as he pursued the Presidency doing illegal acts against America to get there?

Did he realize he put his son at risk and his daughter;s marriage too, or did he just get so damn caught up in it all, he forgot to protect his daughter and son? That is what happens when men do these things that are evil and illegal as he did, others who are innocents get caught up and hurt in the process. Donald trump Jr. will have to face congressional questioners and I am sure soon enough so will Jared Kushner Ivanka’s husband, what happens if one or both lie and get convicted and sent to prison, what about them Mr. Trump?

In the heat of passion for winning the Presidency, many a man has gone too far, but not as far as you Mr. Trump, a conspiracy against the country that let you become it’s President is not good for you, the country or the world. Whatever Manafort and Gates and Papadopulous did we all know you directed it and approved it, so stand by they are coming for you. You put your own children under risk of getting arrested and you don’t give a damn do ya?

 

Happy Halloween/ And Remove Trump! Jail Him!


Ok, today is Halloween folks and happy holiday to all who celebrate it! May the ghosts and ghouls who haunt others not haunt you!

That said let’s discuss the Russian Investigation and the indictments now out there and what may come next. I want to say this from the get go so no one out there thinks I am just being an ass, I have never been and never will be a Trump Fan or Supporter. I don’t like men who treat women like shit, and harass them and demean them, nor do I like sexist, pigs, who sexually attac, abuse or hurt women in anyway.

I believe the man in the White House should be removed as soon as possible before he decides to push a button and start world war three and destroy half the planet. I also believe anyone who had campaign members colluding with Russia and Putin, to win the White House, should be removed and convicted and jailed as a conspirator against the United States of America. I hope I made it clear I believe Trump was in contact with Russia and used the Russians to get the White House. Yes I said it  here and I don’t care what someone else thinks it’s what I think and I have a right to my opinion and freedom of speech, so I said it clearly for all right here. Russia got what it wanted Trump as American President and doing nothing to Russia on sanctions or anything else. Funny how that is happening isn’t it?

Ok, lets get some opinions from you out there, as to what you think now.

1) Do You think Trump is a good President?   Yes Or No

2) Do you believe if Trump’s son is meeting with Russians Trump knew what was happening?   Yes or NO

3) Do you believe if Manafort was acting as his Chairman for his campaign, and was in contact with the russians that Trump knew it?   Yes or No

4) The e-mails from Popadoppalis show him reporting back to his superiors in the campaign  and mentioned DT should not and will not be making the meetings, but it has been approved by higher ups, isn’t the higher up Trump or his representatives?       Yes or No

 

5) How long must the American People suffer under Trump? How long must we wait for job creation, and HealthCare that will never come ?

6) After all the current evidence and charges now out there, don’t you think like i d, it is time to Impeach Trump or remove him under the 25th Amendment?

Yes or No

My conclusion is not in question folks, and what I believe is he worked with russia to get the Presidency and he is using it to help Russia and Putin, and he should be removed from Office!  Got a reply or opinion or something to say, just reply to my blog !
