I can’t imagine what it’s like to be a person living in Venezuela today as one of the governments in power has no legitimate reason to be there. Where that power is derived only by force not the true laws of the land and/or the will of the people? Do you just follow the government because you fear the bullet or do you stand up for justice and the law against all odds?     Maduro must go not only because his government is illegitimate but at this point criminal as it enforces it’s own form of gang violence on the people he has pledged to serve.

It’s a beautiful day in my neighborhood a beautiful day for sure so why don’t I see any neighbors? The dog and I are enjoying are daily brisk walk (maybe a bit more brisk then normal) yet know one is on our trail or similar trails out there. It’s like they’ve been warned of an imminent attack and are hiding inside. Yes, my neighborhood is quite secluded but usually you’ll hear a car go by or even a bird chirp but today it was if me and my dogs were the only living organism on this path. Could it be that it was literally 0 degrees Fahrenheit outside or was it not such a beautiful day after all?

After my previous blog piece it pains me to say I should have done more.  I wonder if I just gave me into fear or even selfish inner ward thinking.  Did I feel I couldn’t make an impact in a liberal state like mine so why even try or did I just feel that someone else would act instead?  I can’t take back the past but somehow I hope I can help make a change in the future so my voice will be heard by those who are silenced forever.

We all want a legacy that will live way past us and sadly this (above) won’t be the legacy that Andrew Cuomo will leave but this  (below) instead.

A legacy of  a dead child/children who were killed just moments before they were able to breathe the same are as we can. For the bill he signed allows unborn babies to be killed moments before they are actually delivered.  People might have disagreements of where life begins but for G-D’s sake can’t even the most uncaring person conclude it’s after 8 months? How barbaric has society become for even if one child is eventually slaughtered this way do to this horrific legalization this will be the blood that stains Andrew Cuomo’s legacy for eternity.

FOOTNOTE – I didn’t use the term Governor during my blog piece because signing such legalization has made him more of a monster then a public servant.

I met this man in his later part of his life and the way he lived inspired all that walked in his footsteps. He was the type of person who might have looked old on the outside but was as young as a spring chicken inside. At 90 + years old this man sang in front of group of rockers who let’s say didn’t know the song but still sang along with him.  He was ready to dance at any party even if he was the only one on the stage.  Bill Farber was a man who showed us all that age was only in your head even as his body told him differently. Some build legacies with great wealth or fame but Mr. Farber left it with the way he lived his life to the fullest especially as the years went by.  This man was a person of exceptional faith that accepted G-D would be knocking on his door to call him  home yet we who knew him will continually miss him at our door.  RIP Bill Farber.

If you want to make it to the top you better be comfortable with being a full time nagger. This doesn’t mean you don’t do it alone when you must but in between you’re going to have to nag others so they’ll do it as well.  For others might not be as motivated by your pep talk as you like and feel that your words of inspiration are just pushing them off their comfortable couch of life.   Getting to the top requires hard work, due diligence and the ability to nag others until they push their own weight as well.

After our Pre-pre- pre…… (you get the point) production for the Ideal Bud Rebel Show we’ve concluded the following points (below).

(1) NAMED TALENT– I’m looking to put a name behind the project and will stop at something’s to get one but I drive quickly through the yellow.

(2) SKITS-  We are going to produce a few of the simpler skits that would be carefully placed  into the semi live show. This means that talent and fine tuning scripts will occur shortly.

(3)  OPENING MONTAGE-  We will produce an short montage of the various parts that I have played in my life which should be fun & authentic.

(4) OUTLINE– The basic outline of the show has been produced now we can fine tune each part so it will drive well once it gets on the road.

(5) DISTRIBUTION– This will be the biggest challenge and I’m still reviewing various options and marketing approaches.

My biggest insecurity is “human insecurity”.  This is the feeling that those who say they can do something really can’t or perform at a much slower and/or less skilled way then they said they would.   I’ve run into many a performer who can act but that is only until the show curtain actually comes up.  It’s not even those that have betrayed me in their action but one’s who actually believed they could sing and later realized they never had a voice.  I’m not one to toot my own horn but if I say I will do something it usually gets done with quality especially when I get a reminder in the middle (older mind).  Honestly do you share this insecurity too or are you the perpetuating it?
