Fostering Acceptance
While this video isn't real, these types of scenarios are being played out all across the United States every day. I don't care the color of the skin of the child or his adoptive parents, but if the child is loved, cared, and provided for then that's all I care about. Skin color is the last thing I worry about. Dr. King back in the late 1960's kept repeating his I have a dream speech to where not only the blacks were listening, but so were the lower income whites.

The Cold War
Shortly after world war two Berlin was divided into three parts. The Russian side, the British side and the American side. Germany was divided East and west Germany. I served during the cold war from December 1978 to June 1983. West Germany was the free side and East Germany was the communist side ruled by Russia, behind what we called the "Iron Curtain." Overnight a wall went up in Berlin. Russia built it. It was designed to keep the citizens in East Germany. Russia also had barbed wire across across the border with a mine field included. There was an incident in which an East German citizen was injured by a bomb trying to escape from East Germany. The American's weren't allowed to go inside and the Russians weren't aware of the injured person. That person unfortunately succumbed to their injuries and the citizens were pissed at both sides. At that point the Americans and Russians agreed that if the Americans saw anyone injured in the mine field we were to call the other side and inform them of the injured citizen and that we were going to get them. We also were to inform the Russians we would return that person after their wounds were treated.

When a friend destroys your trust
How do you forgive someone who betrayed your trust? A person you thought was a very close friend, but turned into a snake in the grass? How do you trust someone who had a family member hack your computer? How do you trust someone who continued to act as your friend after they turned you into law enforcement. How do you trust someone who turned you out of their house when it was ten degrees below zero and snowing? Knowing you had no place to go? How do people like this exist in society? All of these questions are true. It happened to me in 2018. Now I am paying a dear price for what this friend has done. She isn't the only one to betray my trust. While I was in jail I requested visits from my pastor. He didn't get the approval from the jail until I had been released. The pastor came to see me after I was released. He gave me one hundred dollars to keep me off the streets. Now he is going to pay my hotel bill until I fly back home to Virginia.

Generations of Music
Every generation has their own style and type of music. The 1950's really kicked it off with the rock and roll. Elvis, The Big Bopper, Richie Valens, just to name a few. Then came the 1960's the antiwar movement by Creedence Clearwater Revival, John Lennon etc. But you also had some really good artist from that time period such as the Mama's and Pappas. It was a great time musically in our country. These were just the great popular music, and soft rock groups of that time period. Then we had the likes of Johnny Cash, George Jones, Tammy Wynette, Conway Twitty, just to name a few on the country side. Back in our time you had to have something called talent in order to be a singer, not auto-tune.

The Bridge
This book is very well written. The author does an excellent job with his story telling. This book tells the story of Aaron and Tillie. Aaron is a severely depressed sixteen year old gay boy living in New York with his father. His parents divorced when he was eight. Tillie is also severely depressed and a teenager. They see each other on the George Washington Bridge. This book is told from four different perspectives, one of which I have never seen before, One is that only Tillie jumps, the other is only Aaron jumps, the other is both of them jump together and the last is neither one of them jump.

Agony of Defeat and the joy of the game
Like most Americans I love the little league world series. I am showing some of the highlights of the little guys as I love the little ones. They are so adorable out there with the behemoth's. Several years ago a pitcher for a team in the United States was cruising along. The two fielding errors by his team mates, and a walk to load the the bases then a grand slam. By that point of the game the pitcher was toast. The coach pulled the poor boy from the game. But ESPN kept following the boy and his melt down all the way to the dugout and into the corner. They kept it on a constant news feed that day. These are just kids so why do you feel the need to embarrass a young kid like that? It angered me that ESPN would do something like this. Since they now have MLB games and players at the game why not have one of the pitchers talk to the boy and tell him it happens to the best of them? Did ESPN enjoy humiliating the boy who had been humiliated enough? These boys take their performance very seriously. I don't enjoy watching a cute boy have a melt down because of a bad performance. The kid shown in the above video, I just absolutely loved him as did my uncle. Besides being cute, he was a good ball player.

Dixie and I
Dixie wasn't a collie but I wasn't disappointed. Dixies was a fully trained German Shephard Police Dog. Everywhere I went so did Dixie. I had her from a pup, she was was only eight weeks old when I received her as a gift from my uncle. He trained her at Ft. Lee, VA as a police dog. She had one job and that was to protect me from the bullies in the neighborhood.

Leif's personal battles
Every girl in America and around the world knows who Leif Garrett is, but so do us gay men, who were hot blooded teenagers at one time. Leif had a great career going for him, plus his good looks but he couldn't stay away from the drugs and alcohol. Now he is known as one of the bad boys of Hollywood. But is it his fault? I would say no because he stated that his Manager was pushing the drugs on him.
