It is time Americans, Wake up!


October 2nd, 2025, is here. The Red Sox are still in the playoffs, tied at one game a piece with the Yankees. The Red Sox were not even predicted to be in the playoffs at all this year, yet here they are! Let’s Go Red Sox! If they can’t win, they sure can scare the hell out of those damn Yankees can’t they folks! Let’s Go Red Sox, I say. Win or Lose I wil back em, always have and will!

Well, sports is one thing, politics is another, and lack of real leadership is another. As we sit, and our governemnt is now shut down, because neither side refuses to give in or compromise, we the American People suffer! I have a few simple things to say about this all. First I am a Disabled American Veteran, and as all Veterans will tell you, we didn’t get to go on strike, to shut down, or to say no! We did what we were told and we did it correctly, or paid a price. There is and will always be, one thing the United States Military teachs all of their members and it should be remembered by all in politics too. Before you can become a leader at anything, you must be a good follower! If you can’t follow, you can’t learn to lead folks, never forget that one.

We have a bunch of politicians sitting in positions as Senators and Representatives, who are of both sexes and numerous backgrounds and nationalities and colors and races, for we are Ameica. They need to be reminded they are there to serve the people, not themselves or their party. When the next election cycle comes around, the great mid=term, we need to kick out all the politicians who stood for this shut down and allowed it to happen. We need to kick out the ones who break the laws, we need to remove the lazy ones, who collect a paycheck and do nothing. we also need to, correct the balance in the Senate and House to reflect a more equal and working balance for all of us. I hope, due to the current situation Americans have learned now, they can not give the Presidency, The Senate and House to one political party ever again. It’s dangerous and as we now know, not smart to do.

Now let me say this clearly for all to understand. President Donald J. Trump does not belong in office, he is not a man with all his mental facilities in place. He is not a Leader. He is incapable of compromise and seeks only glory and money for himself. And that my friends is dangerous and deadly. He is attacking his own country with his politics and decisions he is making. Medical costs are soaring, prescrption costs he wants to control with his own private company now? Social Security is under attack, Medicare is under attack, Medicaid is under attack why? Food price climb, gas prices climb, housing costs climb and utilities too. Why? Cause the man in the White House doesn’t care is why, he is more or less a glory hound, looking to get himself up on Mount Rushmore, or get a Nobel Peace Prie for reconiginition, then anything else. He doesn’t care about the average American, who works for a living. He’s rich, concieted, nasty and attacks everyone and anything he doesn’t like. He wants to attack all his enemies who disagree with him period. What kind of a President does this shit. The Department of Education dismantled and no one leading the process anymore, why? So many things happening that are just wrong! Why is the Department of Defense now being called The Department of War? Why is The Gulf of Mexico now being called the Gulf of America, because Trump has a whim for it to be so is why! It’s a sad, sad, sad, America, who tow-kos and bends to one man. The World knows it, they see it, and they all look at each other and go, what is wrong with Americans these days, don’t they see that this is how Hitler ran Germany and became a Dictator! This is how Rome fell, How the Aztecs fell, The Incas fell, The Japanesse fell, and so many Empires before ours fell. I thought Americans knew and had learned from the history of the world and others, no country can kow-tow and bend to one man’s rule. We the American people, fought a revolutionary War to get out from under one King and Country, 250 years ago, now we are succumbing to a one man autocratic rule, in America? Are you kidding me Americans, wake up!

I am but, one man, with, but one voice and one platform, trying to reach many, not for my own cause, but to save the Counrty I defended and protected and served for 16 long years. I saw the recent speeches by Hegseth and Trump to the American Military Leaders, Generals, Admirals. I know as a military veteran, the american military is not trained to police the people, our cities or towns. They don’t beling in the streets, controlling the people. And what kind of a President, puts miliatary troops on his own countries, streets? You tell me folks, I say it is an autocratic, person who believes he is a king or dictator that does so. The Supreme Court has gone too far in allowing Trump to do as he pleases. It must be stopped now. If it isn’t stopped and if he isnt stopped, we will not have a Democracy and a Republic anymore and our freedom of speech will be gone, our Constitution will be gone, our Rights will disappear and it slowly eroding now, under Trump each day. Once Americans look close enough they shall see it. When it hits your families, when you can’t feed your families, your children, or get them medical help anymore you will wake up. Jobs are disappearing and none are coming back. Unemployment rises. What is wrong with Americans today, why are you so blind to it all. Don’t you care anymore? Are you so passive as a nation and as citizens, that we will allow one man, to destroy all that was put forth, by The Founding Fathers of America? Are we done, having our freedoms, do we want to be controlled in this way, what happened to the American Fighting Spirit, The patriots, the voice of the People? Where has it gone folks? Are you that weak, that blind, or that opinionated and brainwashed to fall for it all? Wake up!!!!!!! It is time, Americans to wake up and realize, what is happening, to react, and to stop this.

Advice from life! Hello October!


October 2025 has arrived and it is begginging to look like fall is coming in fast. The leaves shall change, the darkness will creep in slowly each day, and the winds shall come to blow the leaves away. Mankind shall continue, as we adapt to the changing weather, mankind seems to understand, how to adapt and accept and adjust to it all. Many amazing things happen in life. There are many amazing people in the world of all colors, races and creeds and many more with many needs.

I was asked one day what is the best advice to give a youngster these days, well, some were surprised by my answer, but, I think it works. In my younger days , when I was five years old, my step-father who I always called Dad, was playing his guitar. I was watching and listening to him as he did. I was interested and drawn in by the musical talent he had, I would watch him and smile and sometimes just dance in place. So, after sometime, he asked me, if I wanted to try, I said sure and messed it all up. He looked at me when I finished and he told me, Son, You can do whatever you put your mind to, if you want it bad enough, Put your mind to it and follow through, be persistant and you can do anything! He was right in many ways, He taught me at 5 years old to read music, even though now many years later I can’t, I did then, because I wanted to. That same sentence of, Wanting something, putting my mind to it and doing it, sticks with me today. It stuck with me through my life and still, I go on. Thats what I tell the youngsters of today, pick a subject or item you enjoy, you love, learn it, persist with it, and you shall get it.

The second thing I tell many people, and I have learned from my life, while i was in the Military is a simple thing, but, very vital, to survival follks. I have been all over the world and when I say that, I basically mean it. Now I have been to Europe, I have been to the North Atlantic region, I have been to Bermuda and South America. All around you see, for I was U.S Navy. I learned all men, and women want the same things in life, we all want love, we all want respect, we all want to be known for who we are and we all want to be remembered when we depart. People are the same folks, no matter what country your from, what color your skin, what language you speak, we all want the same things, the only thing to remember is that no two go about getting it, exactly the same. Talk to people folks, be friendly, be kind, and learn from one another. Soak in life, soak in other’s experiences and words, and then make your choices. Don’t decide on one point or two, research it. If there are two sides to a question that are diversive and apart, and seem so distant from one another, listen to both sides, gather the facts, and then decide., for yourself. Also, when you do decide, remember it’s your decision, on what you believe, don’t force it on anyone else, be willing to discuss it yes, but, if someone objects, or gets angry, stop, and let it go, they have their rights also. respect that, and walk away, for there is no way you can change someone else, if they are stuck and believe they are right! So, walk away and live to fight another day!

Last advice, I believe it’s the best I have heard in a long time, given to some youngsters. Find something you love to do, and follow through. If you love to do art do it, if you love to do something and it feels right and natural and it becomes your job, then you are not working but, enjoying. As long as you enjoy your job, your hobby, you work it out of pleasure or joy, don’t give it up, for life is long and one way but short in another, and working is what all humankind must do. We have to pay to survive, to eat, to home ourselves and more, to provide for our families and children too. You might as well do it, doing what you love most to do. It makes life easier.

One last thing for today folks! Let’s Go Red Sox, Let’s Go! They won the first of their three games Series last night 3 to 1. Yes, I will always be and always have been a Red Sox Fan!

The Fall has arrived, in more ways than One!


September 30th, 2025 has arrived folks. The last day of the month is here, and the weather is still warm, here in Westborough, Ma. for us. Soon though fall shall begin to crawl in and take over and temperatures shall drop. For me, I prefer the slightly cooler weather that fall brings and the color of the leaves and beauty of it all. Fall is for me the best season of the four, cool enough to walk in and nice enough to change the leaves and beauty.

Summer brings heat, Winter will bring cold and snow. Spring is the second best season I like because it stays cool for a good while, and the greens of the lands open up once again. As I age I find Spring and Fall the two best and it is why I love New England the way I do. I was born and raised in Connecticut, where the weather was never a problem for me. So, I guess it’s in my DNA so to say, lol.

As September ends, The Red Sox have returned to the MLB PLayoffs starting today. It’s the first time since 2021, and I hope they win of course. I am glad to see them once more in the playoffs, but, their hated enemies the Yankees are in also and it will be a three game confrontation. Can the Red Sox win, yes, will they win well that I do not know for sure, I can only hope. I have been a Red Sox fan since I was a kid, and began as a fan in the early 1960’s. My dad/ step-father, was a Red Sox fan all his life, and never got to see them win a World Series, but I did! I have only been to Fenway Park, once in my life, and that was in 2013, after my lung cancer operation, to see them beat the Yankees. I am not rich and game tickets are expensive, so I never get there, although, I now live in Westborough, which is closer of course. Let’s Go Red Sox, Lets Go.

Well, Fall, also brings back the sports that keep me going, each week, The NFL and the NBA. I have always been a big NFL fan, I just love the sports, at least for watching on TV. I love The Celtics in the NBA, The Red Sox MLB. and I will follow the Patriots, cause i live in their area, but I love the Vikings, even if they don’t win a Superbowl. I can’t sit through a baseball game, it is too long and puts me to sleep when I try. A NFL Game I can handle more action and the same with the NBA.

Anyway, life seems to continue on no matter what happens in the world. Everyone wants to be remembered for somethinhg after they are gone and deceased. I write my blogs, my poetry, I wrote my short stories and thats me. I am not a sports hero, I am not a politician or artist of any kind. I love music yes to listen to, but, never had the patienance to learn an instrument.

I have tried some sports around here, where I live, I tried PickleBall which is very popular here in my area. When I did I twisted an ankle and never went back. Fun game, but, after the ankle twist I haven’t gone back. Bocce is next I think in 2026’s spring, I shall try that. Will I ever go back to Pickleball, I don’t know yet. I walk alot as I said before when the weather permits and I love the fresh air and sunshine, but, not high heat or ice cold weather. I live with it and it is New England.

I watch the News and see the wars, I see the way the American Governement is being run and I shake my head. I see people being assasinated, shootings and violence at a greater rate than ever before in my life. I see prices rising, for food, housing, utilities and clothings and people struggling to survive. Now we face a possible Governement shutdown again, over political differences and neither side is going to back down. If one doesn’t Americans citizens you and I will suffer. People will go hungry, or homeless, jobs are disappearing, not appearing. The Tariff’s that are being put in place are hurting more than helping anyone. What many American’s do not understand is we the people pay for those tarriffs to be in effect. It’s far too expensive and unneccessary actually and they do more bad, than good. But, I have no power, except the power of the written word and free speech, to voice these concerns, I do, voice. One vote in an election can’t change the whole fabric, but many can. So, I just hope Americans will wake up soon and realize, they are getting screwed. Medicare under attack, Medicaid under attack, Veteran’s programs under attack, food prices rising, utility costs up, gas up, and so much more. What of the elderly, or disabled like me? What happens next folks, do we lose our Social Security or VA Benefits and payments? Trump promised to never touch either, will he keep that promise?

Time wil go on folks, and the world does turn, but, there are times when I wonder, do Americans know what they are doing? Do we realize we are killing our own way of life, democracy and the republic? I know, it’s crazy to say, but it is true. And while the world watches and laughs at us, we slowly begin to fade as a country and an empire in history. It happened, to so many others, before us and we have had a decent 250 year run, as a empire and leader. But, the slip is here, and we have begun the tumble that led to the end of so many empires in the past. Is America, about to follow the trend of others who lost it, are we dying out? You tell me Americans, will our Constitution, Our Bill Of Rights and Admendments hold up? Will we be able to keep Free Speech? Will will be able to have the freedoms we always had all my life, or will Americans lose it all folks? What’s next? When, TV shows are under attack, for free speech and jokes, something is very wrong in America!

Some Thoughts on a Sunday Morning !


In life we al have our little pleasures, our little likes and dislikes. We all have things that make us smile, or make us cry, make us laugh or make us sigh. Some of us, live on sports, some on music, some on books, or something that we find special to do. Some like to read and study history, others love to write, stories, articles, blogs or poems. Some argue politics, and some don’t, the thing with politics is simple folks, no matter which side or party you back, someone will always argue the opposite is best. When that happens is, when anger rises, and people don’t understand, most of the time, it is best to just walk away. You can’t change people’s opinions folks, or what they think, only they can themselves by researching and learning on their own. Always remember that, the next time someone gets angry or upset over a political statement or action, walk away. It’s not worth facing potential physical violence or even verbal assault. Save yourself the trouble, walk please.

With that said, I used to DJ online a lot, music was my thing in the 1990s, I would DJ. I have a colllection of music that fills an external hardrive I gathered over the years. It runs from Rock, to Country, to Jazz, to Motown and more. I found over the years even classical music has a place and time in my life. Music is like a special spice in one’s life, that lightens the spirit, makes you dance or move and lifts your spirits all in one. Music always brightens the mood and helps one through the duldrums of life. So, remember when, your down, play that special band, group or artist or song that makes you smile and carry-on like nothing is wrong. For in your heart and mind you will always have a special song.

Music is one of my loves, as is writting, Poetry I do as it hits me, so to say. A partcular topic or event may come to mind and make me go off in a poetry way. It may be love that sparks it, it may be anger, it can be an event, or one of danger. Or I may write of loneliness, or absence, or maybe depression or sadness. Each day we get up, an event or interaction may interact with us in someway, and that may become a key to a new poem or even a story or song. Inspiration comes from many sources my friends, sometimes it can be a smiling face across a bright room, or a face across a dark one and a gloom. You never know, just remember it can happen and will somehow, or so.

I labeled my Blog, for Rants, Poems, Stories and more. So when whatever mood hits me, I can express what I think. I do not force my opinions on anyone I just voice them by writting them out here. Wheither you agree or disagree, is up to you of course and I leave the commenting to each one who reads what I post. I may not reply to your comments, but I do read them, so you know.

I am at a stage of life where I realize my opinions do not match everyone else’s. But thats ok, for as we age, we do get set in our ways. It is expected at least by me, for each of us is an individual you see. We all have different levels of experience and interactions that affect us. So when we sit down and talk, if I don’t like what you say or do, and I walk away, don’t take it personal, for it just means, I don’t wish to fight or argue over any point in the discussion, so walking, is the best to do. I do not disrespect your beliefs, your opinions, or thoughts or what you say or how you say it, please don’t try to do that to me. As my mother said, Respect is not a given, it is earned, the way to get it, is by being respectful at all times in return. What you put out, you shall get back and that my friends is just a fact. So, don’t treat anyone in anyway you would not want treated yourself. If you do, your asking for the same in return and you won’t like it. Just a thought for all, that is.

Mutual respect, manners, kindness, caring and sharing is right! It should be spread and shown each day and night. I am not saying be a beacon yourself, but it doesn’t help to be kind and nice to everyone else! Happy Sunday all, I hope all have a great day!

Wake Up America: The Danger of Passivity in Politics


Hello, Westborough, Massachuetts and the world. I hope all are doing well, having fun and getting by just fine, these days. Life is what you make it they say, and each day does take a bit of an effort to get out there and interact. Some look at me, as being an old man, and I don’t consider myself that way really, even though I joke about it all. Age is really just a number and you can’t avoid, aging folks, but your attitude you can control. Laugh, have fun, and remember whatever you put your mind to, you can get done, if you just stick to it.

Next, It is early here I awoke at 5:30 am again which is these days becoming a regular ritual on my part. I have my coffee and read the news and e-mails I may get, even comments on my blog if I can some. I just like to see what people think these days. I mean, look at the world and how fast it has changed for all Americans since Joe Biden is out of office. I pray there will be enough of America left by 2028 for our children and grandchildren to enjoy.

Changes are rapid and many are angry type and nasty type too. Our own system of democracy and our republic are at stake here. Yet American are passive toward it all and letting it happen before our very eyes. If you don’t like what is happening Americans, I think you need to wakeup, ad voice the facts, and fight back. If you don’t, there won’t be a America anymore, for the passive get over taken quickly and they get forced into auticratic and communistic rule. everything that iis being done by today’s American President, was done before in the world, and each time it took the world to wars. HItler did it the same way, and well we all know history I would hope, and that wa sthe biggest turmoil and war ever, World War 2. Will it happen again, it is beggining to look like it may, right here in America. The danger is real follks, and until we stop it all, it will continue.

No Man, woman or child should be above the law, No President should have unlimited powers in America. The Forefathers, put in the System of Governement we have fora reason, it’s called checks and balances. We nee dto let those Checks and Balances work once more and stop the maddness now in Office. Before it is too late folks or America goes down. It has started it’s decline now and if it continues, we shall all be speaking Russian soon.

Let me be clear here, I do not agree with, condone the policies put forth under the CUrrent President or his Adminstration. Nor, do I approve of his choices for key positions in our Governement. They stink each and everyone of them. I wnat them change, I don’t want RFK Jr. Running our Health, I don’t want Kristi Noem either, I hate Pete Hegseth and what he is doing to our Department of Defense, now they want to call it the War Department, doesn’t that sound to you like osmeone is looking for a war to fight these days? The education Department is disappearing piece by piece, why? Medicare and Medicaid is constantly under attack, Social Security is too now. Why? What is left for future generations when they now have to work to at least 69 to retire and they won’t even have Social Security left for them? What happened to the gOvernement for the people and by the people? What happened to take care of our own? The elderly, are running out of coverages and protections and no one cares anymore! Sadly, even the Veteran’s Administration is under attack these days, and we the Veteran’s who kept our country free for the future are losing benefits and resourses why? Don’t we deserve our benenfits anymore? or is it alright for a bone spur complaining individual who never served one day to steal it from us all? What is it Americans, why are you allowing all of this to happen?

Since when does an American President step up on a podium at Nato and tell the world their countries suck? Who is he to represent usin this way. He is being laughed at on the world stage and we are declining in stature and pride and position, because we allow him to do it. Wake up, stop him now! I remind all many empires before teh American Empire have died out and destroyed themselves, by following courrupt leaders, evil leaders or greedy leaders. Our current leader orpresident is all three of the above. The Aztecs, The Incas, The Japanesse, The Germans, the Romans and so many more lost their empires following one mad man. Let’s not do it America, lets fight back. If you love democracy, you love our Republic, our wya of life, Freedom of Speech, and the right to your own religion, then I say fight back now, Preserve and Protect it I say. I remind all, of what one of the Founding Fathers said” Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neith liberty or safety” Ben Franklin’s 1755 warning against trading freedom, for comfort still sparks debates about rights, security and governement over reach today. I think Americans need to take heed to it and all of our ForeFathers. If we lose our guts, our fight anf our rights, we lose all we are. If we lose Freedom of Speech, our choice to Politics and religion, our right to earn a good living or or right to education, we lose America. and that my fellow Americans is what the current Administration and current President is tearing down. It must stop now.

We need a new Theodore Roosevelt folks, He sai dit best when trying to save America, Speak Softly, qnd carry a big stick: you wil go far. His words reflected a belief in calm diplomancy, but with strength in reserve. The phrase defined U.S. foreign policy and projected America’s rising global power in the early 1900’s. We need it again and to stand by it.

Navigating Dating as a Senior: A Widower’s Perspective


Ok, Whats new is alwaysa question for me. Since I am a widower and single and 69, I try to find different things to do. Walking is always big for me, as is bowling at least twicea week when I can. I lik eplaying billards once a week where I live. Other than that I am usually hunting an dlooking for things to do.

Some say go to the Senior Center and hang out and you will meet people, thats true. And I don’t knock the Senior Center at all, but, I do feel like I don’t really belong when there. Maybe I am just not there yet, so I feel out of place. Nothing against the Center itself believe me.

I do like to bowl which keeps me active at least. I do read some and try to stay up to date on the news too and tv. I like movies but haven’t been to one in ages, cause it is not fun alone.

Drinking and Clubs and Taverns, are not my thing really. I will go to one, once in a while here in Westborough, just to get out, havea meal and a drink and to look around. Usuaually, most in the Bars, Tavern around wetsborough are people in their 30’s to 50’s who are dating or already have a partner they are dating. So fora single widower my age of 69, it gets to feel like I am a fifth wheel so to say.

As to the dating scene as I see it today here in Westborough, I know many have fears, especially the ladies. I respect their fears and I am never aggressive nor do I chase them. I don’t need a place tos tay, I own, I don’t need someone’s money ladies, I am fine on my own. I do not abuse women either never have and never will wasn’t raised that wya and I do not have a agressive or anger problem. I do tend to stay away from trouble and I do get the fact that not everyone is your cup of tea or mine so to speak. I try to be honest, I try to be fair, and I always try to be respectful and kind. It’s just my nature I think.

So when I do go Bowling, or to a mall or something, even a tavern or bar, I am me. I don’t like talking politics in public it causes wars and fights these days.Sports I love and it’s NFL time once more, with The NBA is coming back soon enough. I am a Celtics fan and hope their rebuild wil be great an dthey have a great season. some ask me about MLB, while I am a Red sox fan, I can’t sit through a game on tv, it puts me to sleep too long. Football I watch, Basketball I watch. But hey, I like sports.

So Anyway life goes on. As a single widower, I find it slow and hard to find someone to match with or date. Age does play a factor for sure, as well as what to do each day when retired. So, I go day to day, and hope, is all. The hardest part of being a widower my age of 69, is the fact of being alone. I have to say I had a total of 40 years of marriage in my life of 69 years. One was 12 years, the second 28 years. So I think I did fine, and I was very lucky. When I look around and see the single , divorced or widowed women, I also see fears and anger in many. Some believe a man wants them just for one thing or another. Let me say this, I don’t wnat someone’s home, or money, or just for their body. I do like companionship, I do love women for their sense of humor, intelligence and to be with. But, dating at 69, is like being interviewed for a job, or something. A million questions, a million different views, and then even if you get through them, you still have to find attraction and chemistry. It’s liek having a job just to get a date, the search, the asking, the dating, the interview and the response can be fun, and rejection can be big. so, what does one do, well, I know what I do, I just go day to day, and hope is all. being positive helps, folks.

Dating for us Seniors is like a trek down a mystery highway, for you know not what the next corner or turn will be. So, one day at a time is all one can do. I will say this, I never dod learn to flirt properly, some are good at it, me I am clumsy and don’t get it. But, I must of done something right, for two marriages totaled 40 years for me. LOL

The Consequences of Power: Is Trump Above the Law?


Well, another day begins for me, I awoke at 5:30 am again. What wakes me is usually back pain, and it is never easy to overcome, yet, I get up and go anyway and the pain, goes with me. When, youra disabled veteran, you learn to live with pain daily, for there is not much they will do for six herniated discs. If they operate, they could, paralyze ya, so they don’t go there. So it is one day at a time, no matter the soreness or pain. It’s life at least, I am still here and kicking.

As I see it, there is no man nor woman, who should stop or interfear in freedom of speech. when someone does, they are scared of what you are going to say is all. lets face it, no President has ever gone there yet, Trump did and does still today. To stand before the world and ask his Attorney General to attck his enemies is sad, just for using free speech! It was fine for him when he attacked the handicapped man, or his opponets in the election cycle, or when he goes after TV hosts of late night shows, or Television networks, or newscasters, so why isn;t it right for nayone to speak bad about him? If the Attorney General does what he wants, then she is breaking the laws and locking up and harassing Americans for just speaking out. That my friends is wrong! No matter who gave you your job, you can’t break the laws, The First Admendment, or the Bill of Rights, or Constitution, don’t let him do it or his Attorney General, please!

Now, where oh where can those Epstein Files be, and why won’t he let us see! We all know he is in them, numerous flights to Epstein Island, numerous pictures of him with 12 year old girls on his lap and his hands on their thighs. Numerous pictures of Epstein and trump together partying and having fun. Note and cards he sent Epstein revealed. Even Trump doesn’t deny his friendship with Epstein, but, he denies doing anything wrong. Look folks, pictures don’t lie, victims don’t lie, when do these women who were child victims get their justice? I think, they need to start releasing names themselves. Put the predators and perverts who touched you as girls on display and let America handle them publically. It may be the only way the victims wil get Justice in Trump’s lifetime. For he is using every trick in hospockets, tp stop those files from coming out and we all see him doing so. So, if he was innocent, he would want to prove it and clear his name, but he can’t, because he knows he isn’t innocent at all. In the meantime, Epstein’s victims are coming public one by one, talking and asking for the release of all the files. Trump didn’t run for reelection and get the White House once more to help Americans, he did it for protection against going to prison period, and he knows it.

He saw it coming in his first term so he stacked the Supreme Court with his republican friends to protect his own ass. He foresaw what would be coming. So the Supreme Court, backs him in all he wants to do and he gets away wth crimes he should not. I remind all of you he is a Convicted Felon, neve rin American History has one ever been President until now. 34 Convicted, twice impeached, and Congress hasn’t stopped him yet, why? He stumbles when he walks, his ankles are the size of softballs or bigger, his hands are black and blue, he falls asleep at public events. And he has the gut to point at Joe Biden? Thats bullshit, it’s a coverup is all. Sadly, he saw a way to stack the Supreme Court, and get away with it and did it. Now we all suffer the consquences of allowing him to do that. It’s sad, and demoralizing to all of us, with a brain as well as obvious too!

Let get say this, if America doe snot wake up soon an dput the brakes on Trump, he will hand us right over to Putin and Russia. We will become autocratic if we are not already. It won’t get better it will get worse wor all of us. Food prices up, housing prices up, jobs down, gas prices hugh, and utilities climb too. Listen Americans, you can say Joe Biden wasn’t the best, he was ill, yet he maintained and kept prices down, he kept jobs here. No man will be perfect as President, nor would any woman, but, I can tell you this, I know a trained dog who can do a better job than Trump in my opinion.

Finaly thing here I shall tell you all, as I said before in my blogs, if America’s forefathers, were alive today, Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Hamilton, Franklin and more, trump would have beenin jail by now. When you attack free speech you attack the very foundations of democracy and our republic. You attack the right of every American to voice their opinions, their ideas and their thoughts publically or privately. The forefathers knew that, and if they were here to see it, they would run Trump out of office and out of America for doing so. Also, why is Trump even President, he didn’t put his hand on a bible when sworn in this time, since when is that allowed. So many things are wrong now, it is sad Amercia today, and we get laughed at daily. When will it end?

The Importance of Free Speech in Today’s Politics


Good morning all, seems everytime I turn around my WordPress account is locked down for some reason, I tire of having tpo fight to get it back actually. Not sure what I will do about it as of yet. I have thought of going elsewhere to blog, but, I like the ease of WordPress.

Anyway I am back and have access again it seems so, as the politics in America goes, goes America’s biggest problem and mistake, Donald J. Trump. Sadly, the people elected him and they didn’t realize he was going to make the mess he currently has. So many things under attack, even free speech these days, all because he doesn’t like what people say about him. He is attacking TV Stations, Talk Show Hosts and anyone who says they don’t like what he is doing. Why, is Congress allowing him to do this and why hasn’t the Supreme Court stepped in and stopped him? It isa question we all need to take care of and answer soon, or where this country is going, we shall never know. I personally do not wnat my country to be autocratic or communistic in anyway. We do not need a KIng, or Dictator either, we escaped that 250 years ago. Please, Congress stop President Trump, hold him in check, make him listen and block the bullshit he is doing! Politics may be the reason I have having difficulty with my blog here too, for Trump attacks anyone or thing that says anything bad about him. But, I stick by the fact, I have Free Speech under the First Admendment. It’s vital to the foundations of our Constitution and way of life in America! If we lose free speech we lose our nation and what it wa sbuilt on Democracy and a Republic, please don’t let it happen, my Fellow Americans!

Be Well, My Blog for today!


Good Morning September 21st, 2025, for me the day began at 5 am. It seems since my wife passed in August of 2021, I don’t sleep as much as I used to. But, I am sure I am not the only person who is a widower or widow who has this problem. we all get used to our better half being there to comfort or cuddle or just as a presense we enjoy so much we relax best around them. It’s a natural occurrance for a married couple or long time couple.

I knew when I married my wife of 28 years, one of us would go first and since she was indeed 16 years my senior, I also knew it would be her, most likely. She knew it too, and accepted it. she also told me, I would be fine once she passed, she told me I am a realist, I realize what must be done to survive and adjust. Of course she was right, she usually always was, she had more experience period.

I have learned more though since she has passed. Dating apps don’t work folks, they suck up your money and no matter what you do or say, you don’t get far in meeting anyone. You can write great profiles, you can be polite, you can be nasty, you can say almost anything to get a date, and it doesn’t work much at all. It isn’t the app itself that kills the possibilities, it’s the people who use them. I say this because I have found certain things people do. 1) They lie in their profiles, 2) They do not use their latest pictures, they use old ones to hide aging, and other problems. 3) I find many are not there just to make friends or find a partner, many want money from you, or to get into your life financially, because they want it. 4) Then, there are those who, want you to take care of them, because they are ill or injuried and need an assistant to help them through life now. All of the above is true on most dating apps these days. The fears and apprehensions that come out are crazy. Too many worries in using dating apps, they do just eat your money and they auto-renew on you, if your not careful.

If you have a bowling alley near by use it. If you have a place to dance use it, A Group to hike or walk do it. If you, can even just play a game for fun, just do it. As long as you participate and meet new people in your age bracket do it. Even if it is a book club or writting club, do it, it gets you out there among others, and we are all human and need some himan interaction in our lives, or we go stir crazy or get depressed. And believe you, me, depression is not good, and stir crazy can get ya into trouble. Some like bars or taverns, they like to drink and eat. Some don’t. Personally while I like open enviroments, and less people, in my opinion, others like large crowds. It is indeed a personal choice for us all is it not? I think it is, just like, we pick and choose our lovers and partners, we pick and choose our friends. Some you get on with easily, others you don’t get along with at all, so you avoid one another and carry-on. I was never one to force myself on anyone, in anyway. So I avoid being a bother to anyone or a burden, and I do my own thing. I write, I watch tv and movies, I read alot, I walk alot. I like to cook now and then, for fun is all. I play billards once a week and bowl when I can if healthy. It gets me out of my home, into the world and among some people. It is called seeking contact, without being too serious, lol, at least in my book. But, that is life is it not folks?

People tell me to go to the Senior Center, get involved there they say. Well, I am 69 but I feel out of place in a Senior Center still. So I try to not go, unless there is a purpose I am interested in. I guess everyone feels different about that, but, thats my feelings on it all.

Am I happy, where I live and how I live? I am happy with how I live, and do the best I can. I try to stay healthy, clean my place and keep my mind busy. I like puzzles to build when I am in that mood, I have played video games also. But, writting poetry, stories and blogs, is my thing these days. Opinions are good to have if you don’t force anything on anyone, you can voice them. Some just putter along, I walk alone when I feel the need, a little walking stretches the legs and keeps me flexiable. But as to where I live, well that my friends is a different story so to say. I think, when we reach a certain age and status in life, we tend to look for more age definded, places to live. Thus a 55 plus community, became the choice for me. I thought, it would be among those my age and easier to get along in. While the community in general is a good idea for downsizing from a large home you can’t take care of anymore, it is not necessarily the way to go. One thing about these 55 plus community is people tend to get into each others business. They talk, and it becomes much like the old TV Show Peyton Place from many years ago, I don’t go there, and it is not my thing to do so. so, I live by a Theory these days, that is out in a book called the Let Them Theory. I let them think what they want, say what they want and do what they want, as long as it doesn’t physically or socially affect me. Then I go by the other end of said Theory too, Let Me Be me. I worry less what others do or say, and more of making myself happier this way. It is something I would reccomend others should do too. Momma always told me as a child, mind your own, and take care of your own and you will be fine. It’s when you over reach or put yourself too far out there, you get in trouble. It’s true, Momma knew!

Each year, I love to watch the NFL Games and NBA games too. while I follow MLB too, I don’t watch it on tv. A Baseball game would put me to sleep, it moves too slow. Hockey no thank you I say. Olympics I love to watch when they come around. In the meantime I watch tv shows that are mysteries, crime dramas mostly. I even like just putting Utube on for music and letting it play. Yet, life moves at it’s own pace and yes I am getting older. I don’t go drinking to drink, not a party animal of any kind. I may have a beer on a social occasion to fit in only. Alcohol is not me, I dislike it, I have seen too many people get addicted to it and ruin theirs and others lives and hurt people both physically and emotionally. No thank you. I don’t do drugs either, medications are bad enough when needed. lol. so, thats me, in a nutshell so to say, I am not anything other than a normal man, who takes life one day at a time, each encounter or person one at a time too. But, thats me, not all do that, some have a set purpose or way of doing things, I believe in some flexiabily in life.

Time has shown me don’t get too involved in Politics either. It is today’s atmosphere in politics I can’t take. I am not a MAGA supporter, and I don’t like the way, our President is doing business. I won’t publically fight over it, I avoid it, too much violence and anger exists over it all. I do realize, while we must all save our money and go day by day, arguing with people you can’t sway is not the way. So, i adapt to what is there and do the best I can to survive, don’t we all?

One thing I will do, if I see someone down, or hurt or needing help, and I can help them, I will. Helping is one thing, getting too involved is another thing lol. So I try to be careful in this area too, for some take helping as an insult to them, and get made. I learned ask first before you help, don’t rush in. when you do, people tend to look at you like an invading party in war time, lol. But, life is all about being careful and not over extending yourself, so we all survive well. Thats my blog for today folks. Be Well!

What do we as citizens and the people of America do now?


Friday, September 18th, 2025 has arrived. The days are beggining to get shorter and the temperatures more moderate now. Some leaves have begun to change also. Fall will be upon us in full very soon. It’s that time of year when thing change and rearrange and prepare for the coming winter, here in Massachuetts. One of the great things about Massachuetts is the changing seasons, like the whole east coast does have. It’s like a slow adventure of weather conditions and changes, that we never know for sure what is next.

Next subject Americans, my question is how far are we going to allow Trump to push the Constitution, and our Admendments and Bill of Rights? How long does he get to determine what is free speech and what is not? Listen, the Founding Fathers made the first Admendment for a reason, no man, woman or child should be afraid to voice their opinions, without reprecussions. America is based on certain principles folks, Freedom of Speech is one. Seperation of Religion and Government is two. when one man, just because he is President can tell the American People what they can or can not say, well, something is terribly wrong, period. So President Trump says out of one side of his mouth before elected he believes in Freedom of Speech. Now out the otherside of his mouth he is condemning those who joke, or attack his policies and his words, by killing their likelyhood? Stephen Colbert is cancelled, Jimmy Kimmel is pulled from the air, other comedians are attacked and watched for saying things President Trump doesn’t like about him. Listen folks, if Trump can mock cripples, he can attack politicians on the oppssing party and he can heckle his audiences and newcasters and reporters, why can’s comedians tell jokes and heckle him? What makes him so special? A President is not a King folks, he is not a Dictator, we are not communist, we are not Autocratic here, we are a Republic and Democracy, aren’t we still? Are Americans, now, sheep to fall inline behind one man, and not be able to speak their minds? What happened to the America we all love and protect, that one man can do this?

One more thing, for all Republicans and MAGA backers to understand here. No President no matter his age, no matter his party, can get three terms as President. It’s a law and in the Constitution folks. It was put in for many reasons. So, don’t go breaking the laws by trying to, please. Trump has enough failing cognitive functions and physical functions as it is. He is in worse shape then Joe Biden was when Joe decided not to run again. He stumbles, he fumbles his words, he loses track of what he is saying, he acts like an animal at public appearances and no one goes, look at him! The world is through folks, he embarrassed himself and our country in England and in The King’s dinner, on public television. He fell asleep, he ate like a horse. It’s sad, this man is allowed to represent us, it’s humiliating and embarrassing. yet, he is backed enough to stay in office. Sad. he is aging faster then Biden was, and fading on the cognitive level and physical level severely. I know republicans believe they owe Trump for the positions they hold currently, on The Supreme Court and in the House and Senate, but, lets be realistic now, how long do you think America is going to let this carry on? We have become the embarrasment of the world, due to his being President.

He can’t stop wars, but he is causing and creating civil unrest and anger in American society left and right. Violence erupts on the American land, left and right now. People are shooting others, all under Trump. He is putting National Guard Troops into American Cities! The National Guard is not trained to police anyone folks. They are there because he wants you to fear them. Instill fear, you then control the population, ask those who supported Hitler, ask those who supported Mussoloni folks. It’s true, how do you become a dictator 101 shows it is the first step. we need to wake up and stop this now, before our laws and right are all gone. Before the carefully crafted Constitution and it’s Admendments and our Bill of Rights disappear for good. before Trump starts calling us peasants, and the masses. It’s coming folks, and some are either too blind to see it, or they don’t wish to see it, because they are backing Trump and his MAGA ideals. It must stop!

That said now, there is not much more I can say, on this subject. If Americans can’t wake up to what is being done, then we are done as a Republic and a Democracy! It will all end under Trump, if you let it. I still believe in our Forefathers of our country. men like Franklin, Jefferson, Adams, Washington, Hamilton, and more. Washington feared the Military, Jefferson warned against fights between political parties and Franklin said, right after the Constitution was signed ” We shall only have a Republic and Democracy, for as long as we support and defend it” They knew there would come a time when it would be attacked from within, well here it is folks. What do we as citizens and the people of America do now, do we allow it to all go to hell in a handbasket under Trump, or do we fight back and how?
