Will this Super Sunday be a message of family fun or something else? In other words will politics seep through the ads and entertainment and cause this game to have another fumble or will it start to go back to it’s roots and just play the damn game!! Who knows but I’ll be watching and if it goes too “woke” I and many other viewers will view slumberland instead. The SuperBowl let’s hope it’s Super again.

It might be on in the background but is it going through any ears?  Yes, the ratings appear in the millions but those that are actually listening are in the thousands if that at all. The question then becomes is it better to have the viewers or those that actually really view? Should the ratings determine what is most popular or what actually influences the most?  This is a hardest matrix to measure yet it is the one which advertisers should pay the most to listen too.

Dad, I want you to know you have left you a strong legacy that is right here. You and mom’s Amagansett property continues to thrive as does it’s restaurants seen by Stuart and his family. Florida is a joint venture with Karen & Stuart holding it too strong but more important than any properties is the values and memories that are cemented to everyone here today.  There appeared to be an extra seat at Mario’s on Arthur Avenue when me and Todd as I couldn’t order without asking for extra garlic. All of a sudden I see myself actually following in your footsteps whether it be repeatedly going to the same restaurants yours was “The Blue Bay Diner” mine is “Sazone” or actually enjoying just for a moment dare I say it a beach. The work ethic you ingrained us continues to flow strong day after day week after week.  Yet the most important legacy you and mom left continues to run strong, this family which bond stays united by the spirit that runs through us all. May G-D bless your continual ride on angels wings.

No matter what we do, see, feel or hear nothing will compare to their vision. We can own the greatest tower, climb the largest mountain or taste the rarest fruit but what they absorbed is still beyond our scope. As the power of hearing the word of G-D as was witnessed by millions during the giving of Ten Commandments just can’t be beat and at the same time leaves our ancestors at a quandary while we easily live on. For once the greatest knowledge is absorbed what else is there to shoot for?  They witnessed the ultimate while we witness bits and pieces along our path of life.

FOOTNOTE-   In other words sometimes the little bits may never fully fill the circle but keep us drawing.

Death doesn’t scare me as much as not “living“.  Letting life past me by without jumping at an opportunity whether it be in business or just plain f-u-n scares me more than a walk to the golden gates (G-D willing that’s the path I’m on).   It could mean simply becoming more intuned to what I’ve already received or smelling that rose which suddenly appears on my track I just want to live every heartbeat until the pounding stops.
