It’s time Y-O-U became more of a Sponge even if you’re name isn’t Bob.  For a sponge takes everything in but one squeezes out all the bad stuff. Don’t get me wrong some of the bad stuff stays inside but not enough to change the structure of the sponge just enough so one doesn’t complete forget. We need to do the same as we absorb the world around us the good, bad and bizarre.   This would allow us to  only absorb memories which keep us in our best form  while squeezing out the bad ones which would change our structure. Life can bring us down but being a sponge will make the squeeze is always available.

Bad Bunny is just bad for “The Superbowl”. He’s a divisive artist who’s music appeals only to a certain base that are not the prime watches of the NFL.  Yes, the NFL wants to be hip so why not have artist such as “Shaboozey and/or Post Malone?  I guess they keep trying to give it to the “man” until the man decides to eventually change the channel.

Why do you get to enjoy the morning brew while I basically drink stale water?  Yes, caffeine isn’t good in my morning dish but Coconut Water, Vegetable Juice, Kefir (etc) would be refreshing. With DC this won’t be a complaint you’ll hear in their bowl.  For it might not actually be Java but DC will give them the jump to start their day as well.

FOOTNOTE- DC will be packaged with their own version of a coffee cup.

If only they didn’t ignore my wounds none of this would have happened. The pain of being in conflict not only left me with PTSD but also psychotic episodes that my mind couldn’t grasp weren’t real. One moment I’d be functioning as if everything was fine and the next I’d feel like I was in a fox hole with shrapnel flying all around me. If only you had taken the time to truly care for me when I got home from the war front,  the demons would have subsided and the battle in my head would have subsided. Take care of your veterans or they might take care of you in a way they were never trained to do.

FOOTNOTE-  Much more intervention needs to occur with our veterans including group counseling and individual therapy.  Maybe then we can prevent horrendous attack like the one we saw in Michigan Church yesterday.

AJR’s “The Big Goodbye” is a song that’s worth saying hello to.  This song hits all the right notes to be a Bud Rebel song, as it’s fun with a unique flavor to it.  You can add a touch of pop and a theatrical base to this song’s recipe for brilliance!!  AJR – The Big Goodbye, because sometimes goodbyes lead to many a hello.

Life truly is about the experiences, so whenever you can go, throw and/or attend a party. It doesn’t have to be a wedding, yet all the better because having a good time is all you truly need.  I know parties can be costly, so work with your budget and throw in a few extra dollars, as one doesn’t last forever, but the moments of a good party can last past many a lifetime.

Let’s face it forgiveness is hard but holding a grudge is even harder. For, when holds a grudge they give free rent to those they are hating in their neurons and trust me they are firing off.  Those full of such rage avoid places, events and any interactions where the “hate” maybe present even if there is more love/happiness that truly could be found there. Forgiveness can suck for the moment especially when someone doesn’t specifically ask for it but hate takes a lifetime to conquer and eats away from the happiness one can truly achieve. In the end if G-D can forgive billions maybe we can forgive the person next door?

FOOTNOTE- Forgiveness, doesn’t mean forgetfulness or lack of justice it just means closure in your own heart and soul.

11/o4/26-  Eighty percent of registered Democrats have voted Republican this year after President Trump suggested they vote for Democrats.  “I just do exactly the opposite of what this tyrannical President suggests we do”, said a member of Code Pink as she proudly showed her GOP Ballot.   There also appears to much more barking at 1 AM from two legged individuals as President Trump suggested this wasn’t a good idea.

There are two polar opposite positions I have on the situation with Jimmy Kimmel. The first is what he said was so reprehensible that he deserves to be fired point-blank or on the head. My second is the government should not even appear to be involved in the decision unless it’s a direct violation of the FCC such as profanity, nudity etc or tales. The President also has the right to speak his mind, but should not unduly decide the outcome. We also need to have some balance on the airwaves that the government hands out for free, which excludes Cable, the internet etc. Therefore, “Jimmy Kimmel” should probably still be off the air, but only because he’s not drawing the audience that could be achieved if another, more balanced artist took his spot.

FOOTNOTE-  I’m applying when they accept applications.

One week from now our books will be sealed for the coming year at least according to my faith. We have one week to seek forgiveness, give charity and/or find a new path before that clock is called for anyone of us. G-D willing even the smallest move in such direction will keep our clock moving full force to health, happiness, success and most importantly peace for the next 365 days or so.  As our book keeps writing along with no end in sight.
