Arthur Buckel escape from prison proves one thing all criminals lack and that is patients.  For he had only 3 weeks to decide if he would receive parole from good behavior but instead decided to make the decision for the board in advance.  All criminal acts are based on a sudden decision to act without thinking about the consequences to those who they will hurt and even themselves.  The problem with the correction system is it does very little to correct the behavior of the criminal mind, maybe starting with a little patients training  (yoga, meditation etc) would help those individuals learn the techniques to deal with the outside world better and protect society as a whole.

In one of the most twisted turns of faith Charles Keating IV has died in Iraq 5/3/2016 serving his country while his grandfather brought disgrace to his country during the S&L scandal that rocked the nation. Charles Keating was convicted of wire fraud and bankruptcy fraud as over 23,000 bond holders lost all their monies in worthless bonds during this financial crises..  You’re children shall not be judged by their parent or grandparent actions but after the tragic death of Charles Keating IV (as the first American killed in Iraqi  battling ISIS) you might come to think differently.  May Charles Keating IV rest in peace knowing that his death brought honor back to his family and his country .

Many people of “faith” spend hours upon hours observing rituals without those actions resulting in the acts they were meant to bring. They might wash their hands in an act of purification but act in ways to others that’s full of dirt and disgust. These individuals might light candles to celebrate peace but act in a belligerent way to those around them. I believe it is better to neglect the rituals then act in a way that brings disgrace to them afterwards. Therefore when observing such faith rituals think what G-D wants them to mean to you and your path afterwards and follow through step by step otherwise there is no point in them in the first place.

Sometimes the greatest sales pitch occurs when you stop talking and just listen. At those moments you take the time to hear not only want your client needs are but how they express those needs.  It’s only during your “listening tour” that you can find out how your product or service can meet those needs in some way or if you’re just wasting your time and should move on to a new client.  Listening is quite difficult in normal times but during a sales call it can feel as if you’re walking on hot coals, every minute you want to jump in.   Yet the time you spend listening can add up to more $$’s in your sales pitch then the time you spent speaking.

I’m done with politics! For what has it got me endless hours of  passionate debate with very little results in the end. It’s tiresome and to tell you the truth I’m tired of understanding the other side. I don’t want to be a psychiatrist although at this point the meds might be helpful.  Of course I feel strongly about key issues (Pro-Life, 2nd Amendment Protection, Free Enterprise,Strong Defense, Support of Allies etc. …etc) but I guess I’ll just have to temper those thoughts into other enterprises such as art. That’s it art where nothing is political…. oh I just can’t win, can I? Well at least I didn’t think of politics for a 1/2 of a sentence.

For those living in the NY metropolitan area I figure a little more of the above couldn’t hurt. We have rain in our forecast and this time they appear to be right over and over again.  So add this little Sun to your day I can’t promise you’ll get any Vitamin E but it feels a lot better then the clouds and rain outside this blog post.
