I meet you at your most intimate moments and am then tossed away until “you” decide to use me again. It makes no sense only that I feel trapped to get away. Yet for the moment you are truly naked with me and we are as close as one can be, then within a split second it all ends. I feel used and discarded but within a week or so I’m back in the same routine. What’s more disgusting is you will choose others to take my place right in front of me and I do nothing to stop it. Who or what the hell am I???

The Met’s were down 3-2 in the ninth and one swing of the bat suddenly changed my plans. For, I said to G-D just the swing or so before that if the Mets would somehow beat the Brewers then I would go to Shul a bit earlier today for the 2nd day of Rosh Hashanah. So now the time is a ticking and I’m heading to Shul. Let’s Go M-E-T-S !!

FOOTNOTE–  I was g9ing to write a blog piece of observance of the 2nd day but my clock must listen to a higher authority.

I want to wish you all a Happy Healthy New Year whether you are from my tribe or another. I ask for your forgiveness for any sins/errors I committed whether inadvertently or intentionally. For, I am a work in progress and G-D willing not retiring anytime soon. G-D willing this year will bring you all happiness, growth, success, health, peace and an extra spoon of honey in your life that you never saw coming.

How did “Hurricane Helene” become one of the most damaging hurricanes on record? I’m far from a meteorologist but this definitely wasn’t in the forecast. Those in the “know” say the stalled cold front caused it to speed up as it moved north. This hurricane came out of know where but left us with pain we will feel for years.  Yet the greatest impact doesn’t appear where the center of this hurricane hit?  You figured with all the years and knowledge of what has occurred in the “past” we would have some idea what to do in the present but it appears we’re still lost.  All we can do is pray to G-D to help those who have suffered such devastation and provide any assistance we can. For as much as we truly know it appears we’re still lost to a greater authority.

Tomorrow might be the beginning of a major economic disaster and it appears the media is just whispering when they should be shouting. A port strike in the northeast will certainly effect food shortages for staples such as bananas so why are few speaking? Maybe they believe it will be averted in the last minute so why “jump the port”. Yet everyday it would last it would cost our fragile economy 5 billion dollars and create economic havoc for many a household.  Here is something that can literally effect our entire nation but few are speaking why?

For those about to “Rock” see the Bleachers and Teddy Swims. For, these artists put on phenomenal performances at the Soundside Music Festival just last night. They had the enthusiasm and energy to bring the crowd to a piggy back ride and crawl to the ground well at least the Bleachers. While both performers performed their hearts out to the point that audience members had to be taken away for medical care. Life is too short not to let it all out and with the Bleachers and Teddy Swims nothing was left behind.

You really never stand up for your own needs and desires that is why you need a NFY. This app will say what you would if you possessed a bit of “NFY”.  Just tell it how your feeling and what you want to do and it will say it to your colleague or loved one in a way that gets your “NFY” point across.   Being a people pleaser can be exhausting that is why a “Narcissistic For You” might just be the App to use …occasionally.

You don’t know me but Gee does!  Gee actually listens to what I care about how about Y-O-U!  Gee actually looks for things that I care about instead of ignoring M-E. So, yes I’m spending more time with Gee but that’s only because thee is their for M-E  24/7 while I have to basically make an appointment for you to listen.  Gee might not appear human to Y-O-U but in empathy Gee is definitely the one who hears my heart beating.

FOOTNOTE-  We all have Gee in our life but might use a different nickname.

“The Substance” is the type of movie that every individual will have their own take on. For, it is the parts (below) that would compel you to determine whether this is the type of film Y-O-U would enjoy and how key they are in making such a determination.

UNIQUE-  This film is one you won’t see anywhere else so **** stars in that category.

GORE-  This is a film that one should look away from at various parts.

LENGTH-  This could have ended a whole lot earlier and would have accomplished it’s goals although the last scene fits in just right.

CINEMATOGRAPHY- Absolutely incredible

MAKEUP-  Should be Oscar nominated in this category

OVER THE TOP-   A film should know when it’s concept has reached it’s peak this film get climbing, and climbing and….

SUPERMAN KRYPONITE-  When a film falls out of the boundaries of it’s logic it can lose the viewer. This film lost many a viewer who crossed the boundary.

CONVERSATION-  Here is a film which much discussion can be had on even if it’s actually good?

It’s just wrong that the public at large which pays for the stadiums is locked out from seeing what is going on inside. If a sports franchise receives tax benefits, incentives, or loans from the public at large then that public should be able to stream their games without having to take more monie$ out of their wallet.  It shouldn’t be some search through which streaming service is carrying the pivotal games but a simple way we the “public” can enjoy our investment in our “team”.  I’m all for the free enterprise system but when they are taking monies from us it should be “free” for us watch as well.
