Thank goodness that my job function is so obscure & so irrelevant that I'm safe until I decide to call it quits.

Andrew I meant maybe the people who benefitted so much from other people's hard work,and made millions from their labor without producing anything themselves,have to try to make a living and survive with old fashioned work,for a change!
Arbeit macht frei...  Socialism for millionaires and capitalism for the workers who have to pay to subsidize the millionaires profits,even if their aren't any. The sad thing,this system privatices the profits and let the taxpayers pay for the losses.A win/win situation for the "capitalists" on top... "We" can't afford health care and social security but we can "afford" to bail out the super rich banking elite...even if it cost's more than "free healthcare" and college tuition and social security benefits,for the taxpayers,who pay for it anyways...How effed up is that? |

What twisted beliefs plague me and where can I get help?
It's very easy to see what is going on. The money elite with their unbelieveable greed and profits left nothing but bones. Now they take the taxpayers monies to bail them out and they can start their game again.Privatized profits,socialized losses.A win/win situation for the cabbal that produces NOTHING. No money for social security that is "broke",no money for universal healthcare,no money for schools and colleges that would benefit the tax paying citizens. But more than enough money for Wall-Street sharks and phoney wars/occupations that benefit a few private contractors at the rate of 10 billion a month... We need help,for sure! |

Andrew~
you might consider joining a good many of us by using the ignore button so you can filter out the posts penned by certain individuals (or their often changing names). to use "call blocking" or "Ignore", goto User OP/Control Panel/edit ignore list/add member to your list. fill in the blank, hit Okay, things get instantly better. man, wouldn't it be cool if you had a guy like Mort on your ride and you could simply punch in mort and hit "ignore"....and poof he'd be gone from the group? jony, shred, ben, motoyoyo, curve.....would you guys please each start working on that concept for us? i think i could round up a group buy....

Roger that, Brad.
Now that I'm home with a new stint in an artery, my doctor's orders are to not get spun up...modern medicine is amazing for hard-parts work. Major MI on thursday night, home on Sunday (I hacked the hospital computer in my room so I could get out and see what was what..hehehe) It'll take a lot of work, but I can do it. As has just been illustrated to me again, life is too short. I should be able to get to the shop middle of this week to install my Motoyoyo clamps. Live every day as 'twere your last for someday it surely will....

yep.
Lifestyle change time. Less stress No More Margaritas What a rush it was...I was on the gurney while they were getting ready to run the catheter up my femoral artery for the stint. I was conscious..suddenly had to vomit..as I was spewing, I heard the EKG go 'beeeeeeep' and 'paddle...200 joules stat'...or somesuch. i started to see the ceiling swirl around, just like in the movies and then...zap. Every nerve ending in my body was on fire and I must have jumped a foot vertically. Sweetest sound in the universe was the 'beep, beep, beep'. there goes another life. I think I'm running on fumes now. Obviously not my time yet. I'm very thankful for every second.

Glad you're still with us, JonyRR. I'm interested about the swirling ceiling all the while you could hear what was going on. No tunnel with a bright light?

Jony, good luck with your recovery. Work hard at the lifestyle changes. There are a bunch of us that need to make these changes as well.
Take care, Lane
