Anthony Atala

This Wake Forest researcher can use your DNA and create your OWN (specific) body parts for you.
My kind of guy, maybe I should apply working for him...because, I can do this type of work with him.

So....
What I really truly always want...
Is get what I can't have, never had...nor, never will.
But, what I know...who are we kidding...what WE ALL know...
(And We kNOw a lot...or so we think we do)
We "say" that we (you, me and everyone else) know
"EveryThing"
how many times have you dealt with someone who knows everything?
(At Least once a day and twice on Sunday)

So...smarty
You think that you know everything?
Are you polished and distinguished too?
(I'm not here to gloat) (I'm not here to be an 'I Told You So')
Nor will I throw egg on your face.
(You probably hate eggs) (and Yes, you deserve it)
But...tell me smarty,
You
Who
k
n
o
w
s
everything
Something simple, something true...
Prove to me with a Simple True statement that your truths hold the air that your thoughts failed you on.

This, here...is your time to speak and make your peace.
I'm No Michaelangelo...I am not painting any divine interventions here.
I just expect a certain standard from you
(And everyone else)
Expectations are the gold standard for the foundation of disappointment
The crown jewel of our kind.
(So few people warrant the justification for our time here)
I'm not here to judge anyone (especially you), I just merely observe everything that we all are responsible for....
like a
w i t n e s s
i see
This, that and everything on this side and that side.

Remember your words.  Your truthful words?  Where Are You Now?  As in today?
(And you believed your words)
As if they were stronger than gospel.
LIAR!

Remember how you told me nothing is Faster than Light?
But...There is.
Darkness.
There's darkness always waiting there first, well before light gets there.
Luckily, I embrace both.
Light gives me direction...gives me vision...gives me the energy.
Dark cools me...soothes me...embraces me before dawn, and just after dusk.

You lied to me about your light.
Let my darkness defy my bitterness...
Allow your warmth to flow freely through my vastness...
Challenge my ways, challenge my dark.
Glow...
And grow onto our next life's event horizon.


P.S
Happy New Year to All New Beginings

A Thousand Lives, A Thousand Lessons

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bSK_LHXp1Zk

So many Times, 
So many crimes...
Tears
Insight
Contemplation
Corrosion
Temptation 
Redemption
Closure

Live today as if there will be no tomorrow
And I guaranttee you the best day of your life...
this life
Grant me a wish,
Just one wish...
And my wish would be to relive my day, my life
Tomorrow


"Everyone wants to go to heaven but noone wants to die. I can't fear death no longer ive died a thousand times."

I am A Tiger

I am a Tiger, true and through.
With my soft lush fur guarding my ferocious soul.
My paws, large and strong...will menace my prey or comfort my young.
Untamed, I am quick to pounce...for food or sport.
I am just as playful as I am dangerous.

Accept me or ignore, those are your only viable options...
But never cross me, otherwise I will hunt you...and I will find you.

I am a Tiger, but I won't bother to roar...
I'll just sneak up on you
and either
Play or duel my way
And Yes, I will have my way
I always have...always will...
I always do!

It's the naive ones,
Who get caught in my Charmbeauty and glamour...
Drawn like a Crystal,
They approach me in through the wild...
Who often find the tragic radiance in the glory of the untamed...

My Third Truth from my First Wife

What about holding onto or strengthening friendships that already exist?
Friends are the glue that keep our hearts from crumbling.
Friends are that spark that charge our lives and change our ways.

Today, I feel cursed and perplexed.  I feel, I truly feel there is a devil that lurks in my shadow and preys on my mind during those quiet moments throughout my lonesome days.  Tempting me, baiting me into some sort of dying inner conflict...one in which will claim my conscience and devour my soul.
With no consequence, and no reprieve...I sit on the bitter edge of my cliff...flirting with my harmonic heaven while falling victim,
becoming seduced by the darkest of delightful Devils.
Fly or fall...
Ascend
or
Descend
Either, or
One an another
Each can happend...
Neither by chance
It's my hand, my choice...my journey, my outcome
My Assumption, My Result
In the end, it's none other than my Fault...
Free, flee or die

The devil came knocking this morning
I chose not to open my door,
For the devil that already resides inside
Would claim me whole

l
e
a
v
e

Nothing to your imagination,
Even my bones would be lost

Feel, this touch
For it may have been my most, my first and my last
e v e r
Feel a little sunshine during a hurricane?
Only during moments intended to fool and claim a victim...

My secret door is still knockng,
A pile gold if I open...
Gold, yes...my answer, my messiah...
An answer only my foolish heart could give...

Let me rest here, and let me pray...
Before the sunshine disappears...and the clouds turn into a whirlwind...
Stealing me from this...from the here and now...
w i s h
ME
What Fools fear...
Wish Me an honor,
A safe token of good faith...
And let me keep my mind, my heart and my soul
For they are already here to share...
Don't deprive my path of their light

bring to me the fortune I seek
With Honor
With Calmness
With Love
that we all seek

Road to Positivity

2 Ways to Stay Positive When Dealing With Negative People

We all have to deal with negative people at some point in lives, we just do. Sometimes we can avoid them, other times we can’t. Sometimes these negative people stay for a little while, other times they stay long enough to make us want to jump off a bridge.

But since we know it’s a fact of life that negative people exist, what can we do deal with Negative Nancy and Pessimistic Peter?

Understand They Have Different Values

There are times when the negative people we have to deal with aren’t always negative, they just happen to be really negative in certain situations.

When I started college, I was an engineering major. I did really well in school and got accepted into a summer internship program with one of the biggest oil companies in the world. It was awesome. I performed so well in the internship program that they brought me back the following summer. After the second summer I was told I had a full time job waiting for me once I graduated.

But unfortunately, not only did I turn down that high paying job offer, I left the engineering major entirely! I realized that engineering wasn’t my passion and I began studying small business management instead.

My family wasn’t so thrilled about the idea. I was going to be the first one in my family to get a college degree, and the fact that it was going to be an engineering degree made my family ecstatic because they knew that a degree in engineering meant financial security. That’s what was important to them, a nice steady paycheck with great benefits.

So when news broke that I was changing my major, my family voiced a lot of concerns and brought a pretty negative attitude to the situation. They kept reminding me of the time that would be wasted and the big payday that would never come. It was tough to hear, and it even made me second-guess my decision.

But I had to go back and remind myself of what my values were. What was important to me? Delivering something of significance to world the world, and I felt that a degree in engineering wouldn’t allow me to really reach my potential.

I valued significance, my family valued security. We couldn’t have been further apart from each other.

Once I realized that we had such a big difference in values on the topic, it made it a lot easier for me to tune out the negative comments and energy they were sending my way.

Take Responsibility for Your Own Happiness

Negativity is contagious. It’s easy for someone else’s negative thoughts to slowly creep over and start affecting you in a negative way.

But positivity is also contagious, so when someone is giving you a lot of negative energy, you have to fight back with positive energy. You can’t allow someone else’s negativity to become yours. Just because Negative Nick doesn’t think it’s a good idea for you to go after your dreams, that doesn’t mean you have to think it’s a bad idea too.

You have to be responsible for you own happiness and positivity. If we break down the word responsibility we get “response – ability”. Responsibility is simply your ability to respond.

You don’t have the power to choose what life throws at you, or what these negative people do and say to you, but, you do have the ability to choose how you respond and that’s what’s most important.

You can choose to respond in way that lets the negativity drains your positivity and makes you feel hopeless and frustrated, or you can choose to respond in way that makes you work even harder and focus even more on the positive aspects of the situation.

The dictionary defines responsibility as “the opportunity or ability to act independently and make decisions without authorization”. That means you don’t need an ok from anyone else to act on something that you’re responsible for. So even when the negative people disagree with you, who cares?

It helps if you ask yourself,

“What can I do to reinforce my positive attitude?”
“What can I do to discredit their negative attitude and opinion?”

Your happiness depends more on your own attitude than any external factors. So don’t let the negative people of the world get you down.

Extreme Sporting Events

Two Irishmen walk into a pet shop. Right away they go to the bird section and Sean says to Paddy; "Dat''s Dem". The shopkeeper comes over and asks if he can help.
"Yeah, we''ll take four of dem dere budgies in dat cage op dere", says Mick, "Put dem in a pepper bag"
The shopkeeper does as asked and the two pay for the birds and leave. They get into Mick''s van and drive until they reach a cliff with a 500ft drop.
"Dis looks loike a grand place", says Mick.
He then takes the two birds out of the bag, places them on his shoulders and jumps off the cliff.
Paddy watches as his friend drops off the edge and goes straight down for a few seconds followed by a loud "Splat!"
As Paddy looks over the edge of the cliff he shakes his head.
"Focket Dat," Paddy says, "dis budgie jumpin'' is too dangerous for me..."
A few minutes later, Seamus approaches. He too has been to the pet shop and is carrying the familiar 'pepper bag.'
Seamus pulls a parrot out of the bag and Paddy notices that in the other hand Seamus is carrying a gun.
"Watch this Paddy" he says, as he launches himself over the edge of the cliff.
Paddy watches as half way down Seamus takes the gun and blows the parrot''s head off. Seamus continues to plummet until he joins Sean''s mashed remains at the bottom of the cliff.
Paddy shakes his head and says, "An oim never troyin'' that parrotshooting oider..."
After a few minutes, Danny strolls up. He too has been to the pet shop and walks up with his 'pepper bag.'
Danny pulls a chicken out of the bag. He puts the chicken above his head, holds its legs and launches himself off the cliff with the same result.
Once more Paddy shakes his head.
"For me life Danny, first der was Sean wit his budgie jumpin, den Seamus parrotshooting and now you fockin'' hengliding..."

I have to be Next

A church wanted to promote a nun to head nun. 
At the interviews the first nun was asked,"have you had any sexual encounters?" 
"Well I did see a mans penis once", she answers 
"Say one prayer and wash your eyes with by water.

The next one is asked,"Have you had any sexual encounters?
"Well I did touch mans penis once." 
"Say 2 prayers and wash your hands with by water." 

A nun from the end comes rushing to the front and says,"Let me gargle before the.next nun sticks her ass in the water....

Do I really love yoga

Good morning everybody, I am so pleasantly pleased to be here today and able to share with you my recent Tuesday evening Yoga experience.
The studio name is Yoga Flex and it's located in Commack New York.  It's a studio that has a reputation for keeping their yoga room at higher than normal temperatures.  As I am my own credible witness...six weeks ago I walked in that room sensing that the temperature was higher than normal.  After the instructor cooled the room...the temperature read One Hundred and Thirteen degrees Fahrenheit.  That, my friends, often puts the Dee in Delicious!
Anyhow, I walk in  last night twenty minutes before class and the teacher greets me
"Hi, I hope that the room will be hot enough tonight"
After immediately stepping into the practice room...without even bothering to double check the room thermometer...I just know, "it's plenty warm and then some".
There is only one other person in the room, she's meditating in the front and center of this faux de facto oven.  Being that I pride myself on my random ability to be sensible (not always in ideal situations though), I select the coolest spot available (directly next to the exterior exit door).  It's cool for two reasons.  The first of the reasons are all the frequent outdoor breezes that sneak in through this minuscule sized gap located at the bottom of the doorway.  The second, and more relevant reason is how the teachers...out of moments of humane sympathy, they will occasionally open that exit door and allow for a quick cooling of the room.  It's a transient effect since the heaters are set to mimic the sun's intensity.
Well, being that I am twenty minutes early, I begin my warm up ritual of alternating between chaterungas and pigeon stretches.  I break a nice sweat well before the instructor begins the seventy five minute class (which, for this evening, will be a sequence of twenty six poses...I don't love the class...but, I tolerate it IN order to fix my obsession of strong physical labor...I have a saying, 'if you own a corvette, then drive it like a corvette').  
My strength and endurance isn't at a peak level...but I am mustering whatever effort I can (I never yield to a physical challenge, it's just not in my DNA).  The room was scattered with about fifteen to twenty or so practitioners.  The class moves at a quick and steady pace.  For the most part, I keep up the entire class...just sweating up a violent storm.  And then it starts to hit me...
What hits me?
The one hour leg workout I did earlier in the day...and the residual abdominal workout I did the day before...
My muscles, specifically in my midsection...start to seize as we are doing our cool down stretches at the end of the class.  I am cautious at this junction, therefore, I back off from maximizing the intensity of these leg stretches.
The class comes to a complete end now and The Teacher informs us if we wish to stay and mediate, that we should feel free to do so.  She turns off the lights and exits the room.
This has NEVER EVER, as in always and forever...Happened to me before at the end of a class....Unbeknownst to me at that moment, I fell asleep.  Yup!  Out!!  Who really knows what happens when we are asleep?  I'll let you what happens, the commotion of twenty people gathering their things and leaving.  Plus an instructor's aid will come in and mop the entire room.
She snaps all the Lights on....I wake as I hear the instructor's assistant greet me with a pleasant, "hi, You had a nice little Nap."  The room is quiet, empty and spotless.
This woman is new to this facility, I have never seen her before.  She's slightly older than me.  Taller than your typical woman, which I love.  Long blonde wavy hair.  Where she differentiates herself from all other woman is her excessive upper body curves...I am such a fool when it comes to curvy women!  I can not lie, I am slightly excited to be alone in her presences.  I glance at my watch...thirty minutes have elapsed...I have been asleep in this room...this hot room...for thirty, freakin minutes.  I go to get up...but wait...my legs aren't working right. It starts off subtle...and then it explodes...my right quadriceps muscle (front thigh muscle) hardens like a rock...and aside from this excruciating pain, I just can't move my leg...meaning I can't get up...and this pretty blonde woman stands there smiling at me waiting for me to respond in some way to her...and I just can't move, and I can't even utter a word.
(Man Up Deano, and Stand Up like the Spartan that you are).
As nonchalantly as I can, I spin to my side (biting my tongue the whole time)...and I stand up.  At this point all my quadriceps muscles are in a full out riot-like cramp crisis...my adductors (inner thigh muscles) decide to join this party.
Great!  I am standing up, and my legs are not working...with this woman standing next to me.  Without thinking about any repercussions, I reach down and snatch my stuff (usually, I kneel down and spray clean my yoga mat...not tonight, I just can't physically bend down).  She notices my discomfort (I guess my discrete approach isn't too discrete).  She asks, 'would you like a coconut water?'  Barely able to speak like an idiot I mutter, 'yes please'.  She probably thinks that I am some bizarro awkward idiot type now...great.  She quickly returns with a tiny bottle (I was hoping for a barrel).  I take a swig as I exit the room...just dropping my mat and sweat soaked towels on the bench directly outside of my nemesis, the furnace of fury.  I waddle my way to the men's locker room.  I drop the empty coconut bottle on the floor and feebly attempt to crawl my way into the shower...but I still can't functionally command my body.  You know what, I just sprawl out unto the smelly floor and attempt to gather my thoughts.  Just outside of the locker room, I can here the incoming women for the subsequent class.  They are just mindlessly yapping away...as I lay motionless on this filthy and disgusting floor.
I think to myself, 'if I die in here, right now...they'll never know.'  Ten minutes later, I am able to regain awareness, sensation AND function of my body...this coconut water stuff really works.  I stand up and make it into the shower.  I let the lukewarm water run over me...just continuing to cool me down.  I splatter soap all over my body and just hope for the best.  Clean and as fresh as I can get in Twenty minutes, I am dressed and out.  I purchase a second bottle...a bottle double in size, mind you.  I finish the bottle during my ride home.
I arrive home, down two glasses of Cotes du Rhone with my dinner as a watch my beloved NY Islanders blow another three goal lead.  I make my way to bed...it's here, where I undergo a series of muscle cramps that run the course of my entire memorable night.  When I got up this morning...I immediately began my daily rehydration routine...consuming two liters of fluid.  I arrive at work, nice and early.  It's here, where I piece together my last section of this grueling puzzle.  I weigh myself on the Tanita scale we have here.  I lost nine pounds of water over the course of this one night.

Don't try this at home!

F O O L

liar
yes, you

So many thoughts, so little time.
So many words, so little breath.
Her loud voice, her obnoxious mind...I hate her so much...
In my face, like a hungry hyena...I hear her voice and cringe with disgust...
I hope she gets what's she deserves...a thousand lifetimes of nothingness to nowhere...
I hate her, I hate her so much
I hate her because she doesn't listen and she doesn't want to understand.
Clear as day, she is getting what she reaps...
A long, long time of nothing out to nowhere...
There will come a time, sooner rather than later, that proves my truths and dispels your myths...
There you lay, dead like a stone
A cold corpse on a dry slab of worthless life...
Did I tell you, how much I hate you?!!?
Your move, no doubt will be the wrong move...after all...you will never listen with your small mind and deaf ears...
You get what you deserve...and, in all actuality, you deserve a lot worse...
Stay your course, and you'll see for yourself.

Your hero,
Me

I might be quiet...really, really quiet...but I am intense, almost to extreme and insane levels.
But I will never be as crazy as you all!
You call me shy?  Nope..sorry...Well, that makes you even more wrong.  I am deliberate and specific...and I don't care if you hear me or don't believe in me.  I am selective and very calculating.

Funny my Luv
When a pumpkin got plucked
Right off its home...it's long Green Vine
So Firm, so Fine...so very Ripe
You carried it
On hand and foot
Right to my doorstep
Your note
Scribble in your slop read
"It's yours, keep it"
I said,
Fine...it's mine
I'm glad you got lost on the way home
No one ever believed your lies
No one ever cared to realize
You were the idea
That orange round box
Left at that lonesome doorstep...
For me to carve my heart
Right through your soul
love
live
lust
linger
liberate
I lit you bright
You shined with your light
You grew before my eyes
So pretty, so tall...such a delight...
I knelt in your shadow
You left me no promise
I fed you some roses
You bled me dry
Time melted your walls
Your memory faded...
Becoming Old
Your harsh tongue
Bite it...off...if I could
Vanished
Like a thought
Turning into a fossil
In a cave
Where I once called home

I remember,
I listen,
I know

"many people don't listen in order to understand; they listen so that they may reply."

Stuffed Pumpkin

No...since I was given this gigantic pumpkin...which I can (k)not fit into my crockpot (technically I had planned on using it as a Dutch oven substitute)...I need a quick plan Bee...meaning, that...I needed parchment paper...which I did not have...
So,
Long story cut short and boring...
i did NOT make this tonight.
Boo Whoo me!
As much as I wanted too...when I pick some parchment paper up...
I will tomorrow with a few added creative liberties (one of my many specialities you know).

So, my fellow recipe goers...
(A wonderful Thanksgiving/Christmas Day dish)
Did I stutter when I drooled and said yum?
Oh, Hun...
Yes, you....
Over there, in the corner...
Come, come and sit next to me as I share a little bit of stuffed pumpkin...
Please!

Chix that smoke Twix

WTF?
Is that even a thing?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=j8nEgJA8X-k

Think, Speak and Write

Let me revel with my sinful toys, on my terms in my own world...and I promise, like the devil that I am, that I will never attempt to control or manipulate you or your toys on your own playground...let's pretend to agree, even though, we both know...nothing is ever what it seems...

we
are
our
own
unique
master

disgraced in the face of tyranny
HARSH
uncompromising
Truths underline an inequality of justice.
In this existence, in which both our worlds coexist...
Fair is fair...
Just is just...
Both a result if the majority haves versus nots.
Let me not have this majority...but grant me choice and free will...and I will choose to be less, but with more substance of higher standard.
Standards come with words and laws...
This world, in which I am...has too many rules and too many know it alls...
Know it alls seem to know much less than they realize...
It's sad when you know that what they realize is far too less to even be recognized...

I, am my own father...son...and Ruler
Unrecognized by all other governing individuals...
Whom walk a line,
so thin and brittle...
Littered in violent hypocrisy...
Collapsing under pressure...folding tightly as this world shifts towards shattering hammers wielded by Titans...whom hold no empathy, nor any remorse.
I pledge, my allegiance to my ideas
(Clear and void of any and all restrictions)
Free of any persecutions...
To be forthright and honest.

My past is dead, and buried
My future is unwritten, and far from determined
My present, seems curious at best, eventful at worst...ongoing at its simplest...
Dead and unwritten by its complexity.
s m i l e
At Me
c r y
For this world to change...before it corrupts your mind and taints your soul
...before it changes you all

Your voice is your tool
Your goal should be a better tomorrow...
Because, as of today...as in the here and now...
It all seems to be fading
Into a dull,
Cheap
and
Ineffective
Out Dated factory line.

Do you approve?
To herd the sheep that you are apart of?
Into a listless fate
Of meaningful nothings?

Buffalo Snow

It snowed over 62 inches in Buffalo a couple of nights ago.
One storm, sixty two inches of snow...in mid November (when the average snow fall in Buffalo in the month of November is 7.9 inches).  That's a Seven-decimal-Nine.
Interesting.

Now, are the Jets gonna play the Bills this Sunday (oh yeah, a second storm is coming tomorrow with an estimated snowfall of 18 inches)...so sixty-two 62 (Pl+us) 18 eighteen =Equals=  Eighty...80!
Anyone out there willing to help me shovel?

That's 80...as in eighty...Eight-Zero inches of snow in a week.

Introverted Thoughts at A Party

Tis the season for some organized socializing...
Aka Party Time Central.
Great...
Well, I hate them.  All of them.  I even hate the people who like going to them (they always find meaningless ways to offend me...beforehand or at the party itself)...they make me feel so warm and fuzzy.  Like a stuffed bear in the jaws of hungry sharks at a dinner table.
Personally...I wouldn't mind those parties so much...if there weren't so many dopey drunk simpletons running around like naked lunatics trying to hump every single fire hydrant that they stumble into.
Those parties.
Screw you party, I ain't goin'.

1. Should I call someone to get let in or do I text them or is the door unlocked or what?
2. I hope no one thinks I’m staking this place out for a robbery or something.
3. Maybe I’ll just wait out here until someone else shows up. Oh God. What if no one else shows up? What then?
4. Ah, finally made it in. Where’s the food?
5. Where are the drinks?
6. How do I get over to the food and drinks without interacting with anyone?
7. Ugh, this is like a maze.
8. So many people between me and the food :(
9. OK. Phew. Comfort me, potato chips.
10. I wonder how slowly I can fill this glass of wine.
11. Alright, let’s find the most isolated couch here.
12. How long do I have to stay here before I can leave?
13. Like, is 20 minutes acceptable?
14. No, it took me 30 minutes to get here. I should definitely stay for at least an hour.
15. Oooh, what should I do when I get home?
16. I should probably start that Mad Men marathon I’ve been putting off.
17. Jon Hamm’s supposed to be really good in it.
18. Hamm. Isn’t that a character in Toy Story?
19. THAT’S IT. I’LL HAVE A TOY STORY marathon later!
20. Oh, hey, a friend! I’ll talk to you.
21. No. No. Someone else just went up to them.
22. Maybe if I stand awkwardly to the side that other person will leave and let me talk to my friend alone?
23. Nope. Doesn’t seem to be working.
24. It’s too late to introduce myself at this point, since I’ve been standing just on the outside of this conversation for a full minute.
25. Maybe I should back away slowly and pretend I was never here.
26. But what if they notice me backing away?
27. I’ll just stand still. 
28. Or look down at my shoes or something.
29. Oh no, there’s a hole in them.

30. Note to self: buy new shoes.
31. God, I feel like I’ve been here forever.
32. [Checks watch] Oh God…it’s been 15 minutes.
33. No, no, I can do this.
34. There’s another friend. And they’re all alone.
35. Time to do the conversation!
36. Wow, this is going really well.
37. We’re having a really great conversation.
38. Oh no, a mutual friend who I don’t really know is coming this way.
39. [Smiles meekly while internal sirens begin blaring.]
40. Wait…this person is pretty nice, too.
41. Look at me go!
42. Look at me engaging in a successful social interaction without completely recoiling back into my own head!
43. Real proud of myself right now.
44. OK…this is starting to get draining.
45. We’ve been talking for 20 minutes straight and I need a break.
46. Is there a non-rude way to tell someone, “Hey, I’ve really enjoyed talking to you, but I actually just need a few minutes to recharge alone?”
47. Where would I even go to be alone?
48. Maybe I’ll go to the bathroom. Yep, good idea.
49. Ooooh, an animal.
50. WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME THERE WAS A DOG IN THE OTHER ROOM THIS WHOLE TIME?
51. DO THESE PEOPLE NOT KNOW MY DEEP SPIRITUAL BOND WITH PUPPIES?
52. Hiiiiii dogggyyyyyyyy.
53. You’re so cute.
54. God, I can’t think about anything besides how cute this dog is.
55. I think I might have a problem.
56. Nooo where are you going, puppy, I am showering you with so much love and attention.
57. Am I being too clingy? I can stop. Please, I swear!

58. I need you so I look occupied without having to face any more actual human interaction.
59. Who are all these people?
60. There are so many of them.
61. Do they really all know the host?
62. How does one person know that many people?
63. Anyone else feeling a little claustrophobic right now?
64. I need to sit down again.
65. I wonder if people think I look awkward just sitting here by myself?
66. Do they all think I’m that one “weird guy” every party has?
67. Am I that “weird guy” every party has?
68. Why does it even matter if someone is the “weird guy?” Can’t people just live their lives without fear of having labels like that thrust upon them?
69. What’s the point of labels anyway?
70. Oh God, I’m starting to get existential.
71. Maybe it’s time to call it a night at this point.
72. Yeah, going to leave now.
73. Let’s just..slide right out the door really quick, before anyone notices. (My Signature Move!)
74. [Gets outside] Phew. I did it. 
75. Good job, me.
76. Can’t wait to just be alone in my own room for a while.

Fall's Spring

I always knew that today
is, was and forever will be
Yesterday's tomorrow

She called me up,
Happy, sad and blessed
To thank me for the flowers...
Sitting pretty amongst her garden
She feeds them love with a little water,
From the showering clouds above
Covering them with sweet fondness and faithful tears...
Basking in the warmth of her Sun,
They unfold like her children
Sprouting up to the heavens....
Rooting deep within her soil
Becoming
Cycling
Eclipsing
Dividing
g r o w i n g
glowing, gratefully 
Radiating
before her very eyes...

she called me,
Just So I would know
'thank you for the flowers' 

One Eye Shut

It's all about perspective...and How you Read into it.



A wife wrote on her Facebook, "My husband is out with the wife of another man, while I am at home sleeping with the husband of another woman."

The husband commented, "Come on... The reality is that I am bringing our daughter out while you stay at home to look after our 2 year old son."


I can't begin to tell you all how many times other people gave failed in understanding me and my intentions...
The worst of it is, it's nearly impossible to convince stubborn know-it-alls how wrong they really are.
I have a better chance of convincing a wall that it's nothing but a doorway to my next journey.

Puzzle Fox

I knew better than to trust tomorrow's dollar for yesterday's problem!

Life is a series of lessons intended to challenge us for the hopes of positively evolving us (as in the You, Me and anybody else willing to exist) into better individuals.  For most,  it seems as if it's just a massive winter storm of occurrences without any significant purpose...nor with any aim, just complaints.  A mishmash...a splattering of mishaps at the mercy of luck, good or bad...ultimately falling victim to mere consequences in a corrupt world of nothing more than just chances and outcomes, without treasures and rewards.  Words like Fair and Just are just philosophical trigger words intended to occupy goals and hopes for optimists, and ideas of underhanded scores and immoral principles that fuel the lust and despair of all remaining pessimists.

But I assure you, the randomness of 'this' chance...is anything but random.
As a matter of fact, stepping forward with the right foot will drastically change the outcome of your day...Versus if your lead step was your left.
(Just saying)
At the end, you are just left...
Confused
Irritated
and
Frustrated
With 'why is life this cruel game'
Of Truth or Dare
Criminal at its worst, transient and loosely rewarding at its finest...
(((Fake is the Lie that drowned the floods of Moses's Mountain as Noah looked out to Sea)))
And what did we all learn and see???
Just Another misdirected book of lies,
In the inner workings of corporate deceit and falsified concepts, often reflected through transparent mirrors that we call windows and doors...out to somewhere, nowhere too far...but, just far enough...

This is no halftime show...nor is it a fifth grade puppet show.
Oh, No...it's nothing like anything you'll ever find anywhere...at any point in time...
E X I S T e n t i all Y reverberate within this vast vacuum of our collective conscious on my hand tailored carpet...guaranteed to be the ride of your life.

I conned my mistress, she left her husband and dyed her hair black in order to fool a judge and rob a bank.  The vaults were full of counterfeit inspirations and hallucinations of a grandiose masquerade ball known as desire and despair...the clock struck midnight...she left the hall, forgot her hair and got lost on the way home.  Just before dawn, this pumpkin arose...carved like an owl...she peered into its rabbit hole...
Blue
or
Red
i n t e r e s t i n g wrote the narrator
In the Right hand sat the Red, Blue on the Left
Red for headaches, Blue for her Mood
'Mirror, Mirror on the Wall which of the pills will make me the Fairest of them All?'
Neither will without a consenting will,
Yet...with a little persuasion, both can become more than just a random miracle...
Her mind lay heavy, her lust bewildered...
She downed both in hopes of more than just a miracle.

The next morning, she awoke in her bed...
No different than the day before....seemingly, no different at all.
'Ah, just a dream to keep my mind occupied'
Up and out, her simple day began again...the same ole same...
Type of day...again and again.
If given the chance...just one more chance
(Big If)
n
e
x
t
time she might choose one
Over The Other
and see if she will awake in the same bed.
On the same day
With same agenda
Under an identical sky....

Fairy Tales are like Dynasties for those that who romanticize in a hope that their dream is the reality...and their reality just a passing nightmare.
Fact is, neither is so drastic....and neither is by random chance.

Not a lesson, but a thought...an idea to be shared amongst an ocean of ideas...
My food for today, a hope for tomorrow...and a dream for my lifetime.

A Revolution is Necessary

Believe what you read, see or hear?
Believe in just cause?  Or the right path?

Me?  I believe in humanism.

The common person needs to become more aware of the bigger picture.

What was that all about?

Is it me, or is their (you all know who/what sort of nonsense I am talking about) self righteous (mind you, highly hypocritical) crusade a bit damning to free speech (censorship is the primary tool of all dictatorships)...when, and better yet, why...has this place imploded into a wasteland of hushed voices and mainstream morals and vices (extremely boring and somewhat demented to boot at times)?  Are you outraged at the fact that your personal right to free speech has been snatched away from you?  The reason why I am in a sympathetic tiffy here is that I had a couple of my stories and questions recently censored...when in fact, through any intelligent and impartial perspective, were in no way violating and code of conduct...and, in turn, never warranted such a ceasing fate.  Plain and simple, I am pissed that something of meaning and substance got Exed out...when so much rubbish, stupidity and morally suspect material with such decrepitude gets so widely shared by so many.  Made me think...wtf is wrong with everyone?!

Give a like if you feel the same!  Messages come from voices...with enough voices, changes gives chances life...where there is life, their is hope.  Hope is the voice that we All deserve!

Lone Survivor

"Been around the world twice
Talked to everyone once. 
Seen two whales fuck, been to three world faires. 
And I even know a man in Thailand with a wooden cock. 

I pushed more peeter, more sweeter and more completer than any other peter pusher around. 
I'm a hard bodied, hairy chested, rootin' tootin' shootin', parachutin' demolition double cap crimpin' frogman. 

There ain't nothin' I can't do. 
No sky too high, no sea too rough, no muff too tough. 
Been a lot of lessons in my life. 

Never shoot a large caliber man with a small caliber bullet. 
Drove all kinds of trucks. 2by's, 4by's , 6by's and those big mother fuckers that bend and go 'Shhh Shhh' when you step on the brakes. 

Anything in life worth doing is worth overdoing. 
Moderation is for cowards
I'm a lover, I'm a fighter, I'm a UDT Navy SEAL diver. 
I'll wine, dine, intertwine, and sneak out the back door when the refueling is done. 
So if you're feeling froggy, then you better jump, because this frogman's been there, done that and is going back for more

Cheers boys."

Can Pizza and Chocolate REALLY Make You Live Longer and Feel Awesome

Can Pizza & Chocolate REALLY Make You Live Longer & Feel Awesome?


Ok, so maybe Ponce De Leon failed to find the famed fountain of youth, and maybe such a place where one drink will give you everlasting youth will never be found, but, maybe, just maybe there IS something that can help keep us young…help us feel great and live longer, much healthier lives. The fact is, this thing does exist and each of us possesses it and ingests it each and every day…and it’s called…FOOD.I know, big letdown, huh? You were hoping there was some secret elixir or potion that was behind the curtain, but alas, the reality is the food we eat has the biggest affect on how long and how healthy a life we live and we alone are in control of it. We control what we put in our bodies and how much as well.

The secret is no secret at all, it is just in knowing some simple concepts and have just enough self-control to follow a few simple rules…that’s all. So, what are the rules? Let’s try to break down (in simplest terms) how food and more specifically the diet we eat can keep us feeling and looking younger and living a longer and healthier life.

First of all, let’s start with the #1 reason people don’t live a longer and healthier life and that is the #1 cause of death in men and women…HEART DISEASE. This killer kills without conscience and it is extremely effective in wiping out people…as many as 2600 people PER DAY. While there are hereditary factors which can make one be at more risk than others, there is plenty you can do to decrease your odds of succumbing to this killer and they all pretty much involve your diet…more specifically WHAT YOU EAT and HOW MUCH YOU EAT.

Overeating and eating the wrong kinds of foods is largely at the root of many of the risk factors that lead to heart disease and these include high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, diabetes, and obesity and being overweight. While smoking is also on the list, we certainly don’t have to discuss why you should quit…if you smoke, stop, ‘nuff said. Now, because being overweight is such a major problem and contributes to so much of what causes heart disease, let’s break down the category of your diet that makes up the HOW MUCH part…

Overeating leads to weight gain, that is not big mystery, but how can you know HOW MUCH is enough? If we leave ourselves to our own devices, then we often eat to excess. Our love of food makes this a big problem and if not kept in check, we start the downward spiral of weight gain, complications associated with it, diabetes and then often, sadly, heart disease.

But by following one simple formula, we can cut our risk way down, lose significant weight if we need to, and maintain it long term. The formula is known as BMR or Basal Metabolic Rate. This BMR describes the amount of calories your body will burn daily when at rest. When you add in your physical activity along with a specific formula, you can discover the amount of calories you should be eating per day.

How to calculate how much you need to eat
I am going to go ahead and throw the BMR calculations out the window. One of the biggest factors that prevent people from achieving success with their diet is that they make it too complicated. If you can’t understand or easily follow the plan, chances are you will fail. Instead, here is a very simple breakdown that will give you an idea of how many calories you should eat depending on whether you want to lose weight, maintain your weight, or even gain weight (although that is rarely a problem for us as we get older…)

Fat loss = 12-13 calories per lb. of body weight
Maintenance = 15-16 calories per lb. of body weight
Weight gain = 18-19 calories per lb. of body weight

So, if you want to lose weight, multiply your current bodyweight times 12.5 calories. A 200 pound man then would multiply 200 x 12.5 which equals 2500. Therefore, this person would aim for about 2500 calories per day. Then, once you reach your goal weight, simply stick to the amount of calories based on the MAINTENANCE formula.

Now, this is certainly a GENERAL guideline and I do NOT want to discount the importance of physical exercise. Consistent daily exercise (or AT LEAST 4-5 times per week) is definitely vital for overall health and longevity and will change the amount of total calories you need, but you can use the above as a simple guide to get you started. Just by following this simple fat loss or maintenance formula, you can go a LONG way in cutting down your risk of heart disease and use your diet to help you live longer and healthier. Ok, so that covers the HOW MUCH part, now let’s tackle the WHAT YOU EAT part…

I hate to throw it down like it’s so EASY to do, especially when so many struggle, but knowing what to it is, well, kinda easy. You already know what is healthy and not for the most part. Here’s a quick quiz, read the foods below and say HEALTHY or NOT HEALTHY when you read each one:

Cookies
Radishes
Cake
Spinach
Apples
Fish
Lean red meat
Carrots

In general, we all know what is healthy and what is not. We usually give into our cravings and pleasures which leads to our expanded waist lines and all the other health maladies that go with it. Here are a few rules you can live by that will help you plan a healthy diet a little more easily.

Now, I can’t remember who said it, but I read a quote somewhere about healthy vs. unhealthy foods and it went something like this: “If it wasn’t around 3000 years ago, DON’T EAT IT!” I LOVE that one! It is probably a little extreme for most of us today considering the world in which we live, but it does contain a pretty logical adage. The more that food is processed, the less healthy it is, the more natural state you find it in, the healthier it is, pretty simple I would say.

In order to live a healthy and long life, you need adequate vitamins and minerals to ensure that your body operates as efficiently as possible down to the smallest molecular level. Give your body the tools and fuels it needs and it will run like the high performance machine it is. This means eating a VARIETY of foods that are as close to their natural state as possible.

You need vitamins, minerals, fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. In a varied diet, this means fruits, vegetables, fish, chicken, and even lean red meats. For the purposes of this article, I won’t delve into exacting ratios because the choices are almost endless. If you workout and want muscle, you might eat more animal protein, if you are an animal lover and don’t eat meat, you might supplement with tons of soy to get the protein you need and so on and so on.

The basis being, the less packaging and chemicals the food you eat has, the better, and the more varied and COLORFUL your diet, the better as well. Try to do your best to include vegetables with each meal as they are usually lower in calories but higher in vitamins and minerals. In addition, when you do eat red meat or chicken, opt for smaller portions in relation to the vegetables.

Ok, that wasn’t too bad, was it? If you want to live a longer healthier life, maintain your weight by managing your caloric intake and eating a variety of healthy, non-processed foods. That is really all there is to it. Add regular exercise to the mix and you might look in the mirror one day and realize the fountain of youth does exist, and you had the power to discover it all along…

It's life began sometime during The Golden Age of Greece...
Spanning half way around the Globe, some twenty four hundred years later...it still thrives with life, vitality, vigor and promise...yet as it's democratic counterpart slowly dies a sacrilegious, unsanctimonious and inglorious death.  Funny how fate has played its role in who lives and who dies.
Makes me wonder
How
and
Why
can
Those with small minds, in large heads
Have such short sight, yet hold BIG ambitions
with Strong Convictions!!!

It's the parasite that loiters in our subconscious that creeps it way to the forefront...and before we know it...we have fallen victim to the enchanting charm and allure.
The only thing missing is now are the snakes in the prairies waiting to strike sometime before the dawn of conscientious.

Two Years Ago Today

Superstorm Sandy drowned the Jersey Coast, Staten Island and the South Shore of Long Island.
I was coming off of a weekend Halloween party in which the host had spent in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars...that's over $100,000 in US currency.
I had spent that weekend starting to thing what truly is important in life.

Two years later, and plenty of things are still unfixed.

Censored Mind

I have been told by many friends that I am a walking collection of Deanisms.  (For those that don't know, Dean...or Deano...is my nickname...now, use it with respect!)
These Deanisms are a random and honest depiction of my exact feeling at that very moment that encapsulates the truth behind what I am witnessing.
Yes, I am the ultimate witness.  Quiet and observant...I will notice, and I will share my perceived truths...
but,
what
i
won't do is play ball and pretend that I like you and that everything is cool...when it's not.

I read for fun, and I think for pleasure...but, I can't in good conscious let you 'Act' that you are capable of either.
(Look at me all prim and proper on my high horse)....so, knock me down And prove me wrong.  Can You?  Then, by all means...please do try.
I would rather be single and sexless, than married and sexless...or married and unfaithful.
Some lessons I knew, some I learned...and most, I have not fully comprehended yet...but I am still trying...still growing, always learning.
Perfection is a 'Sexy' theoretical idea, that's just out of our reach.  It looks beautiful from afar, but like any carrot to all Rabbits...just a tad bit too far.
I was born with many tools, except with the tools I claim that I need to feed me the success that would distinguish me from the rest.
We all need some new tools/skills to evolve...to improve. Upgrading ourselves to a higher status.  Marvelous I say.
On this road we call Life...I find Everyone complains, why should I?
Why should I do anything, that everybody else does?
Why would I want to be like everybody else?
From what I see, too many people are selfish, greedy, manipulative, self centered, arrogant, vain, ignorant, righteous and uninspiring.
I will drink my wine, and make love to my philosophical ideas...before bed...since, there is where my dreams are my reality..and no one else can brand them black and spit them straight to a communal grave.
I sit and listen to rain.  It offers peace, harmony and acceptance...Everyone, is always welcome to come out and stand in its graceful Serenity.
I fight for my morals.
...disRespect 'mine'...
I will turn my back to yours.
I smile in good gesture, I expect the same in return.
That's where I get it really wrong...I have expectations of others.
Some days I can't do anything right.  Other days, I can't do any wrong.  There is rarely any rhyme, reason or logic....just good or bad luck. Funny...
I don't believe in luck.
I cringe and empathize when your in pain.  You smile and walk away when you notice mine...
It a romantic idea to say that life is fair, or what comes around goes around.
Really, now?  How true is that...?
I saw a psychic, he was a good show...but he still has no real useful powers...probably, none of them do...so, look for your answers elsewhere!
If I could flip a switch and change everything I would start with the big bright bulb overhead that starts it all.
I wonder...what if man never succeeded...would I still be here?
Why do I care, when no one else does?
Why do I find myself asking questions...when everyone else is happy receiving orders and following directions?
I am lucky and damned at the same time, which is still a lot better than just being damned.
A wish...if you had one...most people would want something.  I, on the other hand, would want something for everyone...maybe it might appease their personal hunger for perpetual gratification and continual material stimulation in search of satisfaction...and just leave me alone.
Alone is where I work best.  Many people like (some even love) my best.  But nobody likes me when I am there in the midst of a cryptic world creating my best...so, I choose to be alone.  It's easier for everyone...
I've tried to cry, and I just can't...I don't think anyone noticed.
Most people don't notice much other than the mirror in front of them.
Most people don't really know what a mirror is...they just see what it does.
The herd is big, the herd is loud...the herd can't see me, won't hear...
If I help a person, maybe two...possibly more (like I do daily)...no one notices (not that I care for recognition)...that person (or people) tend to forget...because they can't understand, what they can't see.
I am tired of teaching the same lesson...to the same people.
I am tired, how so many people think and act the same.
Similar to a dog or a cat, after all humans are animals.
With the sole purpose of ensuring the survival of their DNA.

S E E how simple this, that and everything else is?
And you thought that all this was special with a meaning.
Shame on you for thinking that you are more important than everything.  You should be as so lucky to be here...because you could be somewhere where you can't think this over, or read my thoughts.

Life is this circle, that will forever go round and round...with or without you or I.
At least do something good for someone...before your time is up, and then you can't.  At least you can have that one final justifying lap....vindicating that your circle had some meaning, other than just to look at your center.

My thoughts, my quotes
Your eyes, 
My Mind to yours...
t h i n k if you can, because most won't even 'if' they can.
The thirst for material often numbs the mind of is justice, and robs the soul of its substance!

Your bulb, that you see in your sky...might be blinding a beautiful mind.  Wouldn't you wish I could change it for you.
Even if you never thank me, at least then...you might think beyond it.
