To The Good People Of The United Kingdom…

Please accept my apologies for the idiot who has insulted a member of the Royal Family and the Mayor of London. I didn’t vote for him!

The Orioles Were Supposed To Be Bad...

But this is getting downright scary!  The pitching staff is blowing 6 run leads, giving up homers in a frightening rate, and looking horrible.  Hopefully we aren't looking at another 14 year losing streak.  But for some reason, I'm still a fan!

These Forced Birther Bills

Being enacted in states are nothing more then republican attempts to enslave women, and make them nothing more then human incubators.  Forcing a rape victim who got pregnant as a result of the crime  to carry the baby is just like raping her a second time. Women are not property!

Is There Anywhere Safe Anymore?

Seems like you can’t go to school, church, shopping, or even out to eat without taking the chance that someone will decide to start shooting the place up.  What can be done? That is the question!

Say What?!

So you torture a man so much he dies from brain damage and you send us a bill for 2 million dollars to cover it?  And you think North Korea can be reasoned with?

Love Should Not Hurt

If you are in an abusive relationship, GET OUT!!!  Especially if there are children involved.  You and your kids’ lives are worth far more then being with someone that hurts you. There are people out  there who care and can help!  And if you have a friend or family member that is in that situation, make it your business and help.

Breathing A Sigh Of Relief


I had my drs. appointment on Friday.  Good news!  Yes, I have Arthritis in my back and  knee, but not Lupus, even though a blood test showed antibodies for it.  I get a rash from the Sun, and that could possibly be a version of it. We’ll see.

Sins Of The Parents?


What do you think should happen to the students who benefited from the college admissions scandal?  Should they lose their spots in school and have to start from scratch, or stay in?   Should they be treated as innocent victims, or be forced to pay the price?  And what of the ones who’ve already graduated?  Should they have their degrees pulled?  Because of this, students who legitimately worked hard and made the grades were shoved aside in favor of cheaters!

Negative People……

Can Drag you down. They suck the joy out of your life and make things very difficult.  Stay away from them!

More Of My Fan Fiction-From Inspector Morse

As you would expect, it was a damp, gloomy day the day that Morse was laid to rest. The only ones to attend initially were Superintendent Strange , Sgt. Lewis and Dr. Hobson. Both Lewis and Strange spent a few minutes telling stories of their years of working with Morse, of how good of a copper he was, and how they would miss his attitude and quirks. "We will never see another like him," Strange mused. " It was an honor to serve under him, he was always challenging me to be the best cop I could be," Lewis said, holding back tears. After the priest said a final prayer, the mortal remains of Endeavour Morse were consigned back to the dust of the Earth.

Leaving the cemetery and heading for his car, Strange hears someone call out his name. "Jim., over here." Looking to his left, he sees a face he hadn't laid eyes upon in over 5 years. "Joan, it's good to see you again. It's been way too long, and I wish it was under better circumstances. " "Yes, I know," Joan Thursday mused. "My Dad, and now Morse. We're the only ones left from the old days. I thought that Morse would outlive all of us

"Let me introduce you to Sgt. Robbie Lewis, Morse's bagman, and Dr. Laura Hobson, Our pathologist," Strange tells Joan. "Robbie, Laura, this is Joan Thursday, daughter of the late former DCI Fred Thursday. Morse and I served under him during the late 1960's to 1970s at Cowley and later Castle Gate."

"So you're the famous Joan Thursday, " Lewis smiled while shaking her hand. "Morse talked about you a lot, especially later when his health started to go downhill. He considered letting you get away the biggest mistake of his life. The Thursday family definitely made a mark on how his life turned out. He told me that Fred Thursday helped shape him into the detective he became, and you, Joan, Morse ow," Joan Thursday mused. "My Dad, and now Morse. We're the only ones left from the old days. I thought that Morse would outlive all of us always joked to me, were the reason he never married. He really fancied you."

"Well, it wasn't for lack of trying on both of our parts," Joan laughed. "We were young , and I don't think either of us knew what we wanted. One minute we debated whether to go with our feelings, and the next, we were just friends. I hadn't seen Morse in person since my Father's funeral 5 years ago, but we kept In touch with the occasional letter or phone call. The last time I spoke to him on the phone was maybe 6 months ago. He didn't sound very well at the time, but he was in a pretty good mood, and the last thing he said to me was that he kicked himself all the time for the way things went for us, and if he could have went back in time and changed things, he would have in a heartbeat. I'm really going to miss him. Under that rough exterior was a good man, and if he would have just opened his heart and been himself, Morse could have made some lucky lady a wonderful husband, and would have been a great father."

Getting out of the rain , the group retreated into a nearby pub to dry off and get a drink. "I can think of no better place to finish our goodbye to Morse," Strange smiled. "Me too, Sir, " Lewis replied in agreement. "A toast to Morse," Joan beamed. "To Morse," they all said, clinking their glasses together.

Sometimes It’s Not The Lie That Gets You In Trouble…..

It’s the cover up.  Honesty is the best policy.

Can’t Get Any Worse….

Than the season my Baltimore Orioles had in 2018. A franchise record 115 losses and all around bad pitching and hitting.  With Manny Machado and Adam Jones gone via free agency, and Chris Davis coming off a historically bad season, runs will be at a premium.  And with pitching in the hands of the likes of Dylan Bundy, Andrew Cashner, and Alex Cobb, the opposition will not have any troubles.  Hopefully, this rebuilding effort wont take as long as the previous one from 1998-2011, where the O’s had 14 straight losing seasons.  A fan can hope…

Free Agents Aren’t Free


Yes, Manny Machado and Bryce Harper are 2 of the top players in Baseball, but are they worth 30 million dollars a year?  If teams are willing to pay them that much, more power to them!

Let Them Eat Cake


Consider being furloughed a vacation without using your vacation days?

Have yard sales, ask your landlord if you can  do maintainence work instead of paying rent?

I don’t know why furloughed federal workers are going to foodbanks?

You can get your groceries on credit?

It’s worth the sacrifice?


People in this administration have no idea of what it means to be poor, and have to live from  paycheck to paycheck.  Now that the shutdown is over, hopefully these people can get their back pay ASAP!

Introducing Your Congressional Wounded Warriors Caucus


These lawmakers have literally left part of themselves behind on the battlefield. Perhaps they can get together and come up with solutions to the VA’s problems and more programs for our injured soldiers.

Here are your charter members:

Illinois Senator Tammy Duckworth lost both of her when her helicopter was shot down over Iraq

Texas Congressman Dan Crenshaw lost an eye to an IED in Afghanistan

Florida Congressman Brian Mast lost both of his legs to an IED in Afghanistan

Indiana Congressman Jim Baird lost an arm in Vietnam


And of course, as a Posthumous selection for membership: John McCain.

With Divided Government..

Such as what we will have starting in January when Democrats take control of the House, you will have either cooperation between the parties, or gridlock.  Work on the things that you agree on, like infrastructure, and veteran’s matters, and perhaps that will rub off on major things like Immigration.

No Donald……

You have not personally told your racist, white nationalist, homophobic, or zenophobic followers to attack people, send bombs through the mail, or insult the media, but your words egged them on.  People could have and might have been injured because of your followers’ actions.  Words can hurt, chose them wisely!

Some Of My Fan Fiction-How The Originals Should Have Ended

                                         KLAUS

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As the White Oak stake pierced his heart, the last thoughts that went through Klaus’ mind were that in giving his life to save Hope, he, Klaus Mikaelson, the fierce Original Hybrid, the creature who brought fear into even the most evil men with just the mention of his name finally did something good in his thousand years of existence.  And he could die without any fear or complaints knowing that.

   As he returned to consciounsness, Klaus kept his eyes closed, not knowing what to expect.  Would he feel the heat of the fiery flames of damnation, or would there be nothingness? Would the Devil himself be there to greet him, or perhaps the scores of enemies he had sent to their deaths be waiting to consume him?  Whatever his fate, he was a Mikaelson, he would take whatever Fate dished out to him.

   HIs thoughts were interrupted by a voice he had only heard in his mind the past 15 years.  “I’ve been waiting for you Klaus. You told me when I died that I was going to a place that even you would go to one day, and here we are.”  “Camille?” he smiled. “Yes, in the flesh , or make that spirit,” Cami laughed. “Camille, I have missed you so much, “ Klaus weeped, taking her hand. “I am so sorry that you were dragged in all the supernatural madness in New Orleans.  If I’d have made you leave town like I wanted, you would be living the life that you wanted.”

   “Don’t kick yourself Klaus”, Cami comforted him.  “I made my choices, and sometimes they bring consequences that we don’t like. The only regret I have is that I was afraid that when I told you that I loved you, you would discount it because of me being delirious. That’s not even close. I was in my right mind when I said that. I love you Klaus, and leaving you was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do.  With you here now, we can both go on to total peace.”

    “And I love you too, Camille. There hasn’t been a day that has gone by that I haven’t thought of you.  And now with you by my side, and knowing that Hope will be taken care of, I have found Peace.”

     As Klaus pulls Cami close to him and kisses her, he knows that that is the truth.

                                   Elijah

——————————————————————————————————

    “Niklaus has been redeemed and knows  that he is loved, my job is complete” were Elijah’s last thoughts before he felt his body begin to disintegrate from the white oak. He didn’t care if he was headed towards Peace, Hell, or Oblivion,  no creature should live forever, and he was ready for whatever was ahead.

    Awakening, he heard the voice he had longed to hear for months. “Why am I not surprised that you and Klaus decided to make like Thelma and Louise and go out in a blaze of glory, no pun intended,” Hayley laughed.  Running to her and pulling Hayley into his arms, Elijah knew that if there was a God, he had truly been kind to him. “I am so sorry Hayley, you know that I had no memories of who you were and how much I loved you.  Please forgive me, because I don’t think I could ever forgive myself. As for being here, I swore that I would never allow Niklaus to face the unknown alone, even death. Hope will never be alone.Rebekah, Kol, Freya, and Marcel promised me that they would always be near her. I feel like a very heavy weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I have missed you so much. If this is Paradise, it’s far beyond whatever I’ve imagined it to be.”

    “You’re forgiven,” Hayley smiles.  “I knew someday that we’d meet again.  Now about that dance…..”

Opinion

The law should not be subject to politics.  All US citizens, whether Democrat, Republican, or what have you, should be treated equally and fairly.  Judges and lawyers need to put their political views on the back burner when carrying out their duties. The Constitution is for all who live in the US.

Update

Last week, I went to the doctor to get the results of the blood work I had done a few weeks ago.  The result is….they don’t know. The doc thinks it could be Rhumatoid Arthritis, Lupus, or some other autoimmune disorder. Therefore, I’m being sent to West Virginia University Hospital on January 17 for more tests. Stay tuned!

How Low Can You Go?


Parents of a school in Achille, Oklahoma who used the internet to threaten a 12 year old transgender student need to be arrested before someone listens to them and the child is hurt!  Seriously, threatening a kid?!!  This is totally disgusting.  Hate of the LGBTQ community is getting out of control!

Blowing The Team Up

Lets see…

With their 2 best players (Manny Machado and Johnathan Schoop)

One of their top starters (Kevin Gausman)

Their 3 top relievers (Zach Britton, Darren O’day and Brad Brach)  traded away, my Baltimore Orioles are tearing things down and rebuilding.  I hope we don’t have to wait 14 more years for another winning season!

But those who would surpress  it are!

The Time For Civility Is Past


Remember when the birthers were running wild, saying that President Obama wasn’t born in the US?

Remember all the images of him being lynched in effigy?

Remember the riots republicans carried out in congressional town hall meetings in 2010 during the health care debate?

Remember republicans claiming that Michelle Obama was not a woman?

Remember Pizzagate?

Heard about death threats against Maxine Waters, a black member of congress?

So Republicans, if you cant take it, don’t dish it out!  We can fight for our rights with the best of em!

To All You Trump Voting Idiots


A Message to Trump Supporters
by Mike Miller

'A message to all tRump supporters:
When this national nightmare is over....and it WILL be over, hopefully sooner rather than later....and the country is returned to normalcy, order is restored, and patriotism and common sense replaces bigotry, hate and stupidity, don't expect to regain the stature you once enjoyed as a citizen and return to the society you ransomed to placate your hate. Everything this country once stood for....everything better men and women than you sacrificed their lives to protect and preserve....everything we held dear to our hearts, was cast aside, thrown away, denigrated, defiled, stepped on, ridiculed, and despised by you in order to support the most corrupt, dishonest, fascist traitor to every occupy the people's house.
When our free press told you the truth about him, you rallied behind his cries of "fake news" and supported his attack on our free press.
When fake "chrisitan" religious frauds attempted to hijack religious freedom in order to force feed their own deluded brand of bigotry and hate disguised as "christian values" you stood by and let them stoke your inbred prejudices.
When the same mindset that turned Germany into Nazi Germany in the 1930's tried to establish a foothold here, you again showed your true colors and instead of quashing it in its tracks, you abandoned the spirit of this country, forgot history, and allowed its hatred and division to seep into our society.
When healthcare was taken away from the most at-risk of our society, you allowed it to happen.
When children were denied food and healthcare, you supported it.
When innocent African-Americans were murdered by law enforcement, you remained silent, only to finally raise your voices in disgust and hatred when they knelt in protest.
When children were murdered in schools and sane gun legislation was called for, you sided with the gun lobby and decided that the murder of school children was more favorable than sensible gun laws.
When hard-working, law-abiding, tax-paying citizens were denied their constitutional and human rights simply because of who they chose to love, you allowed discrimination and hate to overtake your sensibility and relegated them to second-class citizenry, using YOUR "religious freedom" as the rationalization for the hatred you hid behind.
When environmental policies that demanded clean water and clean air were thrown aside in order to coddle to the monetary interests of the polluters, you remained silent.
When policies that assisted the homeless, the elderly, the needy, the hungry, the veterans, the retired, and the sick were systematically nullified and terminated in order to transfer that tax money into the pockets of billionaires, you turned a blind eye to their struggles.
When children seeking refuge were taken from their parents and housed in cages, instead of outrage you supported the victimization and maltreatment of refugees seeking asylum.
When the reputation of this country and our commitment to our steadfast allies were trashed in order to appease our most rabid enemies, you supported the traitors who betrayed the country and everything we once stood for.
In every instance where compassion, civility, sympathy, acceptance, inclusion, humanity, fairness, justice, and respectability were needed, you supported the policies and the people who showed no compassion, no civility, no sympathy, no acceptance, no inclusion, no humanity, no fairness, no justice, and no respectability to anyone whose very existence they disregarded and refused to legitimize.
So again, when this is finally over, don't expect to be accepted back into the society of the REAL Americans you stabbed in the back simply to legitimize your own prejudices. At every turn....at every chance....at every opportunity, when you were called on to support the foundation and pillars that this country was built on, you looked the other way and were willing to support those who were tearing down those pillars and destroying that foundation. You had no qualms about sacrificing this country to justify your own intolerance. When the choice was to support your country and its constitutional guarantees for everyone, or support the traitor who has worked tirelessly to destroy those constitutional guarantees, you chose the corrupt wannabe dictator over the constitution. Please know that there are many of us, this person especially, who truly love this country, and are intelligent enough to see the damage your misguided support of this administration has reaped. I, for one, will NEVER FORGET and NEVER FORGIVE you for the choice you made and what that choice did to this country.'

The Caps Could Do No Wrong….

And  my Orioles can do no right. What has happened to them?  Having one of the best records in Baseball the past 7 years seems to be just a memory…Now the only question left is where some of our pending free agents such as Manny Machado will be traded to.  Whatever trades the O’s make better bring back some good young talent.
