Day 1- My New York State flag arrived. I decontaminated it. Then i jury rigged a flagpole out of an old pool cue and hung it, in a very safe way, off my fire escape. Then I hoisted my Bernie 2020 flag on the roof off an old pipe that sticks up high enough to be seen from the 7 train. I’m ready to vote for Biden if I must, but thats so far down the road now, who knows?

Days ago i shaved off my beard for 2 reasons. It made me touch my face and it would stop a good seal on an oxygen mask. I also buzzed my chest in case i need the paddles of life. Hey, at this juncture I want to be 100% ready for 10% possibilities. Seems the only way.

The presidents daily displays of ineptitude only make it worse. He should stay off TV.

I talked to my bio-dad Eddie. He’s a nice guy.

I also spoke to my amazing Uncle Richard, who i fear for most. He’s a dedicated and very kind Roman Catholic Priest who learned Spanish to administer to that community. Hes an amazing and selfless leader to his flock. He sees a lot of people, I’m afraid he may have been exposed to the virus. He wouldn’t care. Hes truly kind and a great leader of Catholics.

I told him he had been a great uncle. He was the first to appreciate my intellect and helped me develop it. I was one of few 4th graders to have read The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings and the Chronicles of Narnia all thanks to him. The last movie I watched with him was TOLKIEN and we both enjoyed it.

I also exchanged emails with my mother.

I only heard sirens 3 times today. My neighbor Abe works for the MTA. He says its not a gauge of police activity as the cops and EMT’s are smart and do not want to panic us. The streets are pretty empty. He theorizes they are simply not using sirens. I noted it for consideration. I will now try to listen for the Squelch they use to warn of pedestrians in their path. They have to use that.

I’m fairly well secured. I apocalypse shopped for a week and totally destroyed a high interest credit card. I don’t care.

I may be an asymptomatic carrier or I may still be negative. There’s still no way to know. I feel weird but i did drink a bit for the first time in a couple of weeks. Truth is i kicked down a paywall due to finally having a positive reversal of fortune.

Since January I have again had a subscription to the New York Times. I was aghast at the tales of the COVID-19 virus and I slowly started prepping.

Today i mostly finished my apocalypse shopping and i think people seem to have stupidly overlooked things like the sanitizer i easily bought at the hardware store. Its industrial strength and you can dilute it a lot and and its still effective. I also bought de-greaser. Its pretty hostile to viruses and the COVID-19 virus is apparently covered in lipids, aka fats, aka grease. So There’s a good shot that de-greaser will kill it. Im also good on pesticides and fly strips. Im not risking insects being carriers in New York City cramped-ness. I think im okay

As my kays and 20 bucks in quarters soak in a bath of mouthwash Im only starting this now to make my experiences known as I face what i think will be a mighty pandemic

I also put on my biological fathers Vietnam Dog tags. They made it through the Tet Offensive. Now, blessed by my Dad Johns brother, the Kindly Father Richard, i put them on to deliver me through this chaos. Im an atheist, but you cant be too careful.

Feel weird but hoping its alcohol. I had to get a little drunk tonight. I am glad i had the means to do it.

I dont feel so great but its not COVID symptoms.

If im up to it, and i really hope this is hayfever or something, I’ll talk about the art of second best apocalypse shopping tomorrow. You can still be safe. People have apparently forgotten stuff like coffee and, astoundingly- bar soap! I have a lot.

Stay safe, wash your hands. Don’t touch your face, ration your sanitizer and food.

More tomorrownyflag2

Day 2 –

The presidents racist account of the situation is a fresh insult every day. He was a complete jackass again today addressing the nation.

Heard the first siren about 4 pm. My mother panicked and broke quarantine. Im pretty scared for her. Here unwillingness to tell me what she was thinking and what she had decided to do drove her to put herself in a couple of situations she could have been exposed in. She clearly tunes out everything I say.

Mostly i argued with her that she never needed to leave the house and she just kept making excuses. Now she seems to maybe believe that she can bank from home. All so Unnecessary. Im just angry

Sunday Mar 22 – Day 3

9:08 AM  -Yesterday i spoke to some neighbors, from a distance. even the smarter people are least a bit short and angry.

i dont want to go to the bodega much. the bodega workers are okay people, but the owner is a dick and he was scared and anry on wednesday. hes taken  no precautions and ran a dirty store and now hes upset? he sold the last of the cleanser rather than use it to have customers sanitize their hans, He didnt care about playing it safe before. anger wont help him.

i find so far my OCD & fear of germs were actually crazy…..last week. now i see how very minor my OCD was. The routine i have now actually adds up.

i have outside clothes and inside clothes. once the outside clothes are on i know im funky and i can only touch my face when i am freshly sanitized.

I only heard sirens twice. I think going to sleep at 9 pm probably figures in. I picked the right time to get a memory foam bed and upgrade the apartment.

I’m okay on food. Currently obsessing on the need for one more quality spray bottle. The hardware might still be open and its cold. less people will be out. My pre-shower routine today is to go to the Hardware store. Maybe no one will breath on me. i leave at 10 am.

9:58 Heard from my mom. she seems to have pulled off her frantic move without making any overt mistakes or even seeing any humans who weren’t sealed in their cars like she was.  Some banks are closing. moms agreed to check in for 6 days.

Time start thinking about gearing up to visit hardware store.

12:12 PM- got the last couple of for real spray bottles from the hardware store. I will need some it to make it through tomorrows pharmacy run.  In 36 hours the spray bottles have almost disappeared and are going for 4.99? I have several aluminum bucksets. In good times they were for beers on ice. Now they represent the several degrees of isolation my possessions that leave the house have.

Update 420 pm. Woodside has very little foot traffic. Its something like what you’d expect in a small town.

7 Train is still running for now.

Sirens on and of since 4. last ones were closer.

Angela Merkel and Placido Domingo have tested positive. Probably because outside America there are tests. a medical friend just asked we all donate to help get PPE. i gave what i could. i wrote a letter with a card and a hundred pre-plague bucks to my nephew. I feel terrible Jake’s sixteenth falls amidst this mess. It sitting on the radiator for awhile.  Sterilizing.

I haven’t seen or heard a plane today.  That’s highly unusual being under the flight path for LaGuardia. Come to think of it i didn’t see any yesterday that I can recall.

7:39 PM the presidents press conference was again a complete an unmitigated disater. Throwing shade at possible corona virus sufferer Mitt Romney? It was a low, low moment in an already awful presidency.

The Senate’s actions are baffling, they still were going to their gym? Some of these people truly don’t believe in Science.  But of all people Rand Paul? His father was Medical Doctor. He proved you could be a nut and a medical doctor at the same time. Could he not believe in germ theory? He does love 18th century ideas like the Gold Standard a great deal, could he be so ignorant? I wonder what ever happened to the school that let Rand Paul get licensed to operate on peoples eyes. Look at the stupidity of their graduate on basic Germ Theory! No WONDER he changed professions!

8:06 PM sirens, somewhat close. lots of siren squelches.

Update 9:05 pm – squelches and distant sirens. The Mayor was just on CNN. He clearly can’t really react to Trump’s insanity as a feud at this point would just bring out the dictator that Trump wants to be.

9:47 PM – I knocked back an anti-anxiety pill and my nightly shot of jameson after the last entry.   i hear an ambulances siren squelch as i write this and look to end my day listening to a book on tape. i have all the medication i need. im still gonna venture out for more if my prescription shows up tomorrow. Because I think this will last a long time.

Monday March 23, Day 3

9:05 AM – awoke at 8 am and i dozed on and off for a half hour before i grabbed some  of my limited and precious supply of coffee. I heard distant sirens for a moment ago. The weather sucks. Its overcast and rainy, there was even a moment of hail. I heard the jets engines momentarily drown it out, the hail didnt last long. the plane seemed to be taking off.  So people are still leaving, ot at least the wealthy are. Sounded like a big commercial jet. The 7 train is still running too.

New York is now the epicenter of the nation’s impacted zone. I realize there will be no trip to the dentist to fix my wonky tooth. At least it doesnt hurt, its a potential problem, though.

The internet has moody at best since this started to get real Friday. Its up and down, spiking then lagging.

DeBlasio is now mayor of one enormous Ground Zero for the pandemic. He’s in the same position as the mayor of San Juan. The whole country is now going to get the same treatment the people of Puerto Rico got after their hurricane.

The president is a complete idiot whose making this worse.

3:47 – My meds are ready, this is about the last time I want to go out til work Wednesday.  Its pouring and thats not gonna help my limited Improvised PPE. In a sick way I feel like Im playing Tom Clancy’s The Division! This will be the end for most of the current “outside” clothes. i surely need my hoodie

4:57 PM – back and cleaned up and into my inside clothes after a rainy trip to the pharmacy. some people had masks, not everyone knew to stay back. I had to ward off some people. There is no sanitizer of any kind. There is  no dish soap, there is limited hand soap. They did just have alcohol swabs out where anyone could grab them. i resisted the urge to buy all 8 boxes. I can use atm machines and pinpads at reduced risk with these. i left 4 or more boxes.

I need B12 injections monthly. Its as much as i usually buy, I’m just gonna use them all instead of having them expire for a change.

Friday –

Wow this week was a fucking drag. I take silkwood showers twice a day. Inside clothes vs outside clothes is a constant stresser and I’m already afraid to leave the house on wednesday! Ouch!

I went up to the roof, I am not too happy with all the dog shit up there.

Prices at the Bodega are up 10% out of nowhere this week. I am gonna try to use that dump even less.  His dickishness endangers the whole building. May time for to call the Law on Mo. He’s been a dick for years anyway

Saturday- 1:29 AM

The new dat started like the old day ended. In sirens. Theres been sirens pretty much nonstop from here. Its so quiet I guessI  can hear most of the traffic going to Elmhurst. It’s getting scary. I hope Im not infected.  The tightness in my chest could just be from climbing on and off the fire escape. I definitely beat myself up climbing in and out the window. I guess I really ain’t a kid no more.

On the other hand – I never hoped I had a brittle old man injury before. This time I do. I really do.

I dont know if I can sleep. I am definitely slightly scared.

Broken Purple Hearts- The Shameful History of America Neglecting its Warriors.

Treating our Military Like Shit- The Sad Reputation of the United States towards its Military and Veteran’s

PT  1 The American War for Independence –

Setting the Trend of Neglect

Every March 17th we celebrate a Saint Patrick’s Day Parade in New York City that predates the United States Constitution. It was started by the proud Irish veterans of Washington’s Northern Army.  While they were worthy heroes who had survived disease, deprivation and the Hell that was 18th Century Warfare it’s a safe bet they didn’t get any money from the Federal Government to help them pay for it.

How can I be so sure? Well for one thing there Congress consistently neglected to pay or supply them through an eight year horror story. Valley Forge is a good example of how the soldiers suffered for the cause of Liberty.  The war had started in the North and it was brutal and pervasive. In the south

there were key engagements, but it was on a much smaller scale due both to population and the smaller size of the force Britain sent to defend it.  Washington’s Continental Army fought bravely and relentlessly against the hated and vicious British Oppressors.

Regarded as criminals by the Crown many Continental soldiers suffered inglorious deaths on prison barges after capture by the British in places like New York City after bold open rebellion broke out

The American’s had been tempered a by an earlier war which where the British had used them as Cannon Fodder. In the So

Called French and Indian War in the 1760’s, or as European Historians call it The Seven Years War was a savage conflict fought along the Canadian Border and as far west as the Appalacian Mountains.  The British attempted to use European type warfare and gotten their asses kicked by the outnumbered French and their Native American Allies who used prototypical guerilla warfare as a force multiplier. They consistently made insane decisions and avoidable mistakes where they hedged their bets by risking the lives of the Colonial militia. This was not only dispiriting, but particularly embarrassing for the British as the Americans regularly appointed themselves as well or better than their British counterparts. Despite being mostly inept and being on the receiving end of  a lot of one sided ass kickings the British won. This was only because the Seven Years War was a worldwide war between the French and British and it was events elsewhere that determined the outcome of the conflict.

The French and Indian War had Americans good and pissed off before the British even started passing tax laws and being really oppressive. Worse yet for the British, the Americans had noticed something about the way the war had been prosecuted.  It was stark and it was decisive but apparently was lost on the British themselves- British Military Tactics were laughably inappropriate for war in the America’s. The Colonists had SEEN the British get beat badly in many engagements, mostly because of incompetence and intransigence.

A Nation is Born in Spite of Itself

Enter the Battle of Lexington and Concord in 1775 and the war against British tyranny was on with a vengeance. The Northern Army was pressed hard and got used to fighting without luxuries like food or shoes. The first years of the war saw mixed success but the Americans were definitely trending down in the conflict and it looked like we were heading for a total defeat. Key cities were taken, thousands of Americans were killed or captured yet they still refused to surrender. It’s noteworthy that among the few early victories were achieved through surprise attacks and guerrilla warfare.  Crossing the Delaware in the dead of winter to surprise a bunch of Hessians at the battle of Trenton is a good example of the kind of determination required for the Continental’s to so much as bloody the nose of the British and they’re mercenaries.  The attack itself was carried out in such an unconventional way it stunned the British. In fact Americans are more familiar with the Battle simply as “Washington Crossing the Delaware” for good reason; it was considered so insane to attack across an icy river on Christmas night the Hessians didn’t even post guards.  Even in good weather 18th Century Armies had a really tough time crossing natural barriers like rivers and mountains. The near bloodless complete victory against the hated Hessians, who were well known for simply killing those attempting to surrender, galvanized the Continentals.

In the end it was only sheer stubbornness and a healthy hatred of the British (who would likely just hang them as criminals) that kept the Rebellion alive.

Washington’s guile was born of experience gained when he had served in the aformentioned French and Indian War and being a survivor of several military fiasco’s where the British officer corps operated in a way that snatched defeat from the jaws of victory again and again.  He KNEW he was better than these guys and he knew he could beat them because he had an army of fanatical liberty loving Patriots who absolutely despised the British and somehow got over never getting paid or fed to prevail over a Superpower.  In the face of all these challenges Washington’s troops still showed up and invented new ways to fight and win with inferior numbers and limited ammunition. One tactic could simply be defined as the “Shoot three times and run like Hell,” where they Americans simply disengaged before the British could get close enough to do any real damage.

How under supplied were the Americans?  “Ready, Aim, Fire!” was then a uniquely American approach to battle born of

Battle of Trenton by Charles McBarron

necessity. It was in part because they were so short on ammunition. The British commanded their soldiers to fire in a significantly different way using  their vastly superior numbers to create a massive shotgun type effect to maximize lethality.  Washington simply had his men fire a few rounds and retreat. They could do this all day (or until they ran out of ammo) because the British would never get close enough to get off an effective volley. This morale killing approach and the inability of their leaders to adjust to it could not have been very reassuring to the British soldiers.

The Navy, such as It was, was mostly a bunch of licensed profiteers. The “Federal Navy’ was basically John Paul Jones and his crew, who got their ship from the French and then used captured ships.

What do all these people have in common? They were undersupplied, underappreciated and largely ignored after the War, especially by Congress (what a shock!). Aside from a free meal at Fraunce’s Tavern not much appreciation was shown them when they ultimately prevailed over the worlds greatest super power.

Victory through Force of Will and Innovation

Think of the American War for Independence as a reverse Vietnam with the British cast as us and the Americans playing the part of the Viet Cong. A long war of attrition; a refusal to give up and a willingness to absorb massive casualties is about the only reason we won.  Basically public opinion in Britain was the the real reason we finally prevailed, which is another parallel to Vietnam, is that the British public plain old got sick of the war and public opinion forced the hands of their  leaders.

When the British finally threw in the towel the scars of the war ran deep in our new nation.  George Washington himself created the Purple Heart Award, originally known as the Badge of Merit. It was awarded to only 3 of the tens of thousands of the Soldiers who fought in the Continental Army. It’s the very first medal of any kind in the United States military. Sadly, that’s about all they got.

Despite suffering through endless defeats, privation and disease Congress had a hard time ever getting around to paying them. Many never saw a dime.  Thus began our Nations shameful tradition of neglecting the Heroes who secure our Liberty.

So enjoy the St Patrick’s Day Parade and remember the Veterans of Washington’s Army who never made a cent risking their lives for years wearing down the army of an oppressive Superpower. Sadly, it’s also probably a safe bet that’s about as close as we’re gonna get to a parade for Veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan in this city but I’ll cover that later in this series when I address the shameful treatment of our current returning Veterans.

Mea Culpa & Disclaimer

i am blatantly and undeniably a total Homer. On this Post i will Speak as a Homer and be most favorable to New York City
I love living here, not just because you hear every language spoken on earth including Pig Latin when you walk through midtown, but also because no one cares at ALL what the Hell you are all about. Dressed Like Darth Vader? Don’t expect a second look. Men in Daisy Duke shorts holding hands bother you? 3 times on every block. I’m pretty proud of my town.
Super Storm Sandy, the 9-11 Attacks, all absorbed and overcome by the

toughest, coolest people on Earth, the average New Yorker. When I get a chance to go abroad people want to confront me cause I’m a “yank”. The response? ”yank this, I’m from New York” instantly changes the conversation. Everyone has been or wants to come here. It’s a World City like London, Berlin, Amsterdam or Prague. If you went to Papua New Guinea and spoke to the average person you can bet they heard of New York. Hell, every disaster ever features a lone survivor in a New York Yankee cap (which is why I keep mine handy).

Comparison and Analysis
If you live her in New York and are intolerant your life will be sheer Hell. Everything would offend you. Glen Beck moved to some part of Teabagistan because he was SO intolerant people started to take offense at him constantly being offended and he became ostracized. That says a lot. Being intolerant is nearly an anathema here. Blatant bigotry is about the only way short of shoving people on the subway to get any reaction from a New Yorker.
We hate jerks. Wanna see something really funny? If you happen to be there when Bill O’Riley is at the Yankee game when they put him on the big screen he gets a chorus of hateful boos and cat calls. This is because he is intolerant. He’s also from Long Island, a place where almost every single celebrity is an embarrassing jerk. Rosie O’Donnell, Sean Hannity, Lindsay Lohan, that Nancy Grace looking fake psychic who calls herself a medium despite being an extra large on her thinnest day, the list of offensive Long Islanders goes on and on. There are also a bunch of talentless Baldwin’s embarrassing their only talented family member, Alec. Like Jerky Steven Baldwin who I would run into every time I went to my pot guy for like 3 years. He would just keep lording over us that he was going to be a rich actor like Alec. I was in no way shocked when he embezzled money from his charity and later tried to get people to send him money so he could be a freaky self-ordained Creflo Dollar sort of minister. It’s like a little chunk of Florida somehow migrated to our beautiful terminal moraine.
I think I speak for most of my friends and neighbors here when I say I think we benefit from the diversity. Some of my closest friends simply aren’t white or necessarily straight. They don’t come with any label but ‘friend’.
One of the things that enables this is a pretty damn good police force. Possibly the nations best. Sure there are definitely some awful policies like “Stop and Frisk” but they will also toss you in jail if you commit a Hate Crime In New Orleans their poorly regarded police force all fled the Unknown in the face of Hurricane Katrina. Not one

The Freedom Tower. A poor substitute for our iconic Twin Towers

The Freedom Tower. A poor substitute for our iconic Twin Towers

New York City Cop hesitated to run towards near certain death when we were attacked that Tuesday morning in 2001. This is a big part of why new Yorker’s are more tolerant. They know that guilty people will likely be convicted, that the wheels of justice are somewhat more well oiled than in most other cities. Just look at Los Angeles. Their police hate the citizens and the citizens hate the police. Roughly every 10 years a major anti-police riot erupts due to lack of professional policing.
So what’s my peeve? I have a grudge against a small  segment of our population. It’s a segment of population which remains pretty low everywhere but seems to be higher the further you get from a major city. Intolerant and ignorant people who live on the outskirts of New York and other parts of America where a major metropolis is too far away to exert any cultural influence.

The Connection between Tolerance and the Proximately to a Major Metropolis

While there are still plenty of reasonable exurbanites the intolerant ones have the biggest mouths. They are all over Social Media. They have no agenda, they simply are intolerant. So intolerant and frightened that I have gotten used to being labeled gay simply because I endorse the right for everyone to do whatever they want in a darkened room with a willing partner. Hey, it’s not my thing but I will defend this right to the end. Not because I am gay, which I am not, but because I just HATE small minded people. Unreasonable fears that being gay or smoking weed or whatever is somehow a contagious and dangerous plague and they are destined to be accosted by gay folk who are intolerant. From all appearances aside from the self despising Log Cabin Republicans (just one sub divison of the infamous Republican Cargo Cult) it seems the majority of people of all orientations are not suffering mentally with a deep inner disconnect between their orientation and dignity(Thankfully the conflicted people have many more options now).

The 1992 LA Riot. A direct result of a terrible Police Force creating intolerance

The 1992 LA Riot. A direct result of a terrible Police Force creating intolerance

New York nor any other major metropolis doesn’t generate gay people, nature does that. It merely attracts people who have been discriminated against because it’s known as a tolerant place. After being discriminated against most people tend to hate and avoid becoming intolerant themselves.
My year in Florida was a real eye opener. I couldn’t believe the lack of worldliness displayed. Cops drinking in uniform and jumping into their squad cars obviously over the limit was a common sight. No one looked twice. Anyone in New York would have been outraged and reported this behavior.Think about it. This is an armed cop in uniform. What if something goes down in America’s second most violent city? Like THAT cop will have the judgment to do his job? Sure he may be off duty but he’s obviously a cop and your go to guy if something happens while he’s in your establishment. Unlike violent crime on the streets the cop can’t simply ignore it or wait a half hour to show up. He’s right there when it happens. How can someone so dumb as to not so much as keep a polo shirt in the squad car when they head out boozing so as not to disgrace the uniform even GET the job of cop? This is one thing that should NOT be tolerated. It shows how little regard the local authorities have for the public. How George Zimmerman managed to not get hired as a cop is actually a shock.
Maybe it’s because aside from being stupid he would have set a bad example by actually attempting to do his job? He would have sucked at it but that’s the norm in Orlando and Sanford anyway. I am not praising this murderer, I am hoping for justice for Trayvon Martin. I am just saying the guy became a self appointed cop for free and did it with misguided zeal. Imagine where some education, police training and tolerance would have taken him. Right now the lack of those things may well get him slipped the Needle Of Justice in Florida, which is in a sick competition with Texas to have the most executions, worst cops, most insane gun laws and highest teen pregnancy rates in America
Drink in uniform in New York your off the Force. Aside from letting Casey Anthony walk, the unprofessional police force is as likely to frame an innocent guy as they are to catch a guilty one. If they are a minority their chances of beating the system, no matter how innocent is remote.
Everyone is packing heat all the time. Florida has one million concealed caryy permits alone. I am not that into guns but the random and violent nature of crime in Orlando was truly frightening. Because the Orlando Police Department as well as the PD in neighboring Sanford are more a threat to the average citizen, through poor response time and their “fuck it” attitude, I can’t really argue. #1 in abandoned children and nestled between Camden, NJ and Flint, Michigan as the 2nd most violent city in America, I guess it makes sense. Why have all those

Murderer George Zimmerman, note even the cop in the picture is texting. Is it any surprise idiot vigilante's think they can do a better job?

Murderer George Zimmerman, note even the cop in the picture is texting. Is it any surprise idiot vigilante’s think they can do a better job?

overpaid government workers when you can have do it yourself law enforcement with laws like “Stand Your Ground”? Another way to say stand your ground would be “No witness, no murder.”
Then there are people walking around with tattoos from Leviticus condemning homosexuality. 2 verses later it says tattoos are a mortal sin. Selective reading of the Bible and selective reading of the Constitution and Bible are backed up by schools filled with semi qualified core of teachers and a mass of permanent subs don’t really inspire the best learning and the first casualty is the Analytical Skills we need to truly understand the world. For example- 9 hours to maybe get a chance to vote? THAT’S what you get as an American Citizen? My hurricane ravaged city had all votes counted by 2 am. This despite a complete lack of basic utilities like electricity. Somehow Florida managed to finish just about a week ago. Is there any doubt that the small minded governor and his inhuman Cylon supporters are more concerned that the presidential election is going to be decided by a guy THEY chose beforehand….again. The reason again is Intolerance. Fear of ex Republicans Cubans as well as moderate thinking voters from the Caribbean, Mexico and pretty much anywhere else where people fulfilled their dream of being one of the best, an American.
Enter the Tea Party and their insipid poison. Hateful policies that included idiocy so bad that Christian Slater, who must have done 20 feature films, was not recognized even with all his ID. This is willful ignorance. Recently Slater received

Christian Slater's Ballot Rejection letter. I guess they will say he's obscure and no one recognized him?

Christian Slater’s Ballot Rejection letter. I guess they will say he’s obscure and no one recognized him?

word his ballot was rejected. The Board of Elections, whose complex ballots, which allegedly take 45 minutes to certify apparently rejected the ballot because the idiot reading it mistook his signature as reading “Christiana DiSilva”. Think they thought he was a latino woman and targeted his vote? If you have a better answer leave me a comment. Not disgusted yet? Read on.
The militant and completely psychotic Anti Choice movement, despite overt violent acts and accosting people all day on the street are never subject to police supervision. This to me is because the already undereducated person whose intellect has been severely inhibited due to substandard schools. This is a great payback for the Republicans who destroyed their states public school system. The real intent was republicans hate to give anything away for free when there’s ANY chance of charging for it. This combined with Governor Rick Scott’s lies and insane social policies. Theres a REASON social studies textbooks are boring, social studies is the only subject most are required to take all 4 years of High School. It’s also the only class where you develop critical and analytical skills. Killing and rewriting history with preposterous concepts like re-branding the Civil War as the War of Northern Aggression.
People in Florida may have gotten screwed by their education system, but they aren’t stupid and they aren’t all a bunch of racist Yay-hoos distilling moonshine deep in the swamp. Those people do exist but if they are in any way political they usually default to Ron paul, probably because they hate themselves. Making Ron Paul president would be like having an entire nation commit suicide by cop, but that’s another post. Most Floridians are newly minted Democrats willing to stand in line for 8-10 hours to get a chance to vote.
Why? Because tolerance is spreading. The granting of rights to the LGBT community

This shirt is shocking, not because of the message, because its all spelled correctly

This shirt is shocking, not because of the message, but because its all spelled correctly

are not an offensive idea to most Americans. People have seen that this is no threat to any other kind of marriage. The Tea Bagger talking points ring hollow. Their lies and misinformation could only be maintained for so long. The truth confronted people every day. Truths like that life was a little worse every one of those miserable 8 years when future failed presidential candidate and then Governor Jeb Bush threw their votes away and made his dimwitted brother president despite being soundly defeated. The wars and the recession that has been a hallmark of both George H.W. Bush and the completely incompetent George W Bush administrations didn’t help the world to be a better place. Later it was proven that no invasions were EVER necessary. It was stoking the flames of intolerance that ignited by the preventable 9-11 Attacks.
History shows us that successive generations are progressively more reasonable. Still, every once in a while it skips a generation and we retrograde into stupidity for a time. This time it was the aptly named “Me generation” now in their 60’s that just didn’t get it. The same people who were too selfish to serve their country in what they called an Immoral War were the same ones who showed up dressed as 18th Century Patriots bitching that they are the last generation to deserve Medicare. They conveniently changed their positions on war when they passed out of military age. They lost all compassion as they luxuriated in the prosperity they inherited and have all but destroyed.
The good news- These people are old and their sick ideas will die with them.

Post Sandy Long Island is STILL more desolate than Gilligan’s Island

Updated 12-13-12

In the wake of Hurricane Sandy New York’s Long Island has retrograded into a

Moments before Sandy hit Manhattan

gasoline starved, powerless wasteland that is quickly passing beyond Thunderdome. Mostly it’s the fault of the highly incompetent Long Island Power Authority, aka LIPA.

People are standing on line for hours upon hours for gas like Latino’s trying to vote in Arizona. On Long Island the level of deprivation from the luxuries of the 21st Century is more like Gilligan’s Island.

Infrastructure is still recovering, there’s not a well rested cop anywhere in town and government services like routine policing and fire fighting are at best questionable. Headlining the tragedy is the town of Breezy Point, Queens, where a fire devastated over one hundred houses. Ironically, this may actually save some peoples asses, because the subsequent flood destroyed most of what was left of the town. Flood insurance is impossible to get, or if you can it’s an absolute fortune. Fire insurance is much more affordable. Not that anyone wants to see their

If you want gasoline you better be ready to EARN it!

neighbors burned out of their homes, but at least the Insurance Companies will be unable to weasel out of paying. In our complex, overly litigious world it’s entirely possible that some aggressive lawyering by the Insurance Companies could STILL get out of paying if they can prove the town was destroyed by the flood BEFORE the fire. This part of the story will likely take months to unfold.

Hurricane Sandy exposed the rotting corpse that is the Long Island Power Authority, who took over from Keyspan, who took over from LILCO. All of these entities had several things in common.

Breezy Point, Queens is geographically part of Long Island. Chest deep waters prevented any efforts to contain the blaze

They have all failed to provide reliable power for the bedroom community of the World’s Financial Capitol. Forget the guy with the Moves Like Romney, he can drain the champagne out of the pool and move back to his place in the city (as long as it’s not Staten Island).  Right now there are cops, firemen, teachers and doctors stuck, for lack of gasoline (that crazy Jimmy carter and his wild warnings about not trusting Arabs who he painted as greedy oil barons who hated us).

Personally I feel really bad for the people who are inconvenienced, but even worse is that this lesson in what happens when there is no Federal Government to speak of will likely be lost on the most Republican (and therefore most delusional and self-hating) parts of New York State.

Things won’t get better anytime soon and here’s why

LIPA– aside from rumors that out of state crews were turned away there is the very real fact that LIPA assured Long Island at least 10 days of power interruption BEFORE Hurricane Sandy even made landfall. Like 5 days before it hit New Jersey, where among other horrible events, it failed to kill Snooki, they KNEW we would have a 10 day outage. Doesn’t this mean that they could have cut as much as 5 days off the repair time? Or worse yet, does this mean they would have needed 15 days if they had no warning?

Long Island Politics– You do the right thing, you get rewarded. I was never able to establish myself politically, but many of my friends are at the middle rungs of both our local political parties. This is what I am usually told- LIPA is where people who ‘did the right thing’ end up working. No one will fire these people. Nassau County is so dysfunctional that they spent decades slowly killing the Golden Goose and point of pride that was the future Brooklyn Islanders. Endless voting and re-voting, filibusters motivated by sheer greed and basically shaking down Charles Wang for every dime he’s got. Is it any wonder he will be moving his team to Brooklyn?

It’s a terminal moraine– That’s right this place is no island at all. It’s merely a huge deposit of Canadian soil left behind when glaciers receded after our last ice age (an isolated event if Republican ‘scientists’ are to be believed). Like a sandcastle at the edge of high tide, there’s only one way it can end. Fortunately for us geologic time has a rather leisurely pace. Rest assured, this large deposit of soil that really shouldn’t be here will eventually disappear into the ocean. The sun will also go out one day too, but unlike our star, Long Island is moving towards its end much faster. Frayed at the edges, the barrier islands have inconceivably been developed for housing. Now let’s remember- these are areas where nature WANTS to flood. It’s only a couple of feet above sea level and if proper urban planning would be done it would just be parkland. Greedy and irresponsible builders developed these areas to be cabana communities. Somehow, over time many became “winterized” and people lived in them year round. Now the Long Beach, NY area is a pretty big population center and the only city on Long Island. This entire area is probably unprotectable from floods and hurricanes. It’s heartbreaking, but the

An all too familiar scene here in the Northeast

sheer inevitability of it numbs the mind.

I can’t blame people for wanting to live there. It’s beautiful. It’s also an outlying barrier, once much larger, being slowly swallowed by the sea.

It’s Climate Change, Stupid– Let’s face it, 100 year storms happen every year now.  I can’t fault Con Edison for only having a 12 foot seawall around their downtown substation. It should have been enough.  Its epic, it’s Biblical, it’s Road Warrior.

For 10 days the biggest city in the world has had little gas, therefore little traffic. Speeding is now impossible because there are not cars to weave in and out of to avoid cops. Even worse- its human capital is stuck behind the bottlenecks that bridge the excellent natural harbor that bought Europeans here in the first place. Nature has a cruel sense of humor. How a tiny island only feet above sea level could ever be allowed to become so important despite being rife with natural hazards just shows how little we know of the behavior of our planet.

Sandy was little more than a tropical storm, a Category One Hurricane. With weather more wild and unpredictable than ever, how far off can be a hit by something more substantial be? Can LIPA be allowed to continue as a political patronage pasture with no ability to respond to storms, even the smaller ones, any longer? Doesn’t cutting Long Island off from New York City have a worldwide ripple effect? By sheer weight of numbers you’re talking about a huge chunk of the people who make Wall Street, and the economy, work.  We can only guess. What I can guarantee is that there will be every effort made by the county to keep the power lines above ground and vulnerable, maintain nothing and not spend a dime on preparedness.

Frankenstorm Sandy about to pummel the North East.

It’s time for the monster that is/was LILCO/KEYSPAN/LIPA to be bought under control and invest in future preparedness. Sadly, Nassau County in particular just doesn’t want this. It’s a county with taxes so ridiculously high soon only their very well compensated local police will be able to afford to live there.

UPDATE 12-12-12

While it produced some fantastic musical performances the 12-12-12 Concert will likely be remembered more for its awesome contribution to Rock & Roll then how much good it did. While i trust the proceeds will be distributed equitably theres far too much damage to expect much impact even if it raises a half billion dollars. My trip to manhattan yesterday shows it still being held together with bubblegum and duct tape. The scale of destruction I have now seen personally is too pervasive for anything to change soon.

Now the surest sign that this disaster will continue to unfold in slow motion for years to come has arrived, FEMA trailers. This is far from over….

Double Murder in the Town I Love So Well

Queens, NY– A Nassau County3:00 pm EDT police officer was killed today, the killer went on to car jack and murder a motorist. He is currently still at large. Details are sketchy but police dogs are now involved, apparently having acquired the killers scent off some discarded article of clothing. Details are emerging, but I think I know

Accused Cop Killing Carjacker murderer Darrell Fuller is in Police Custody.

how he has managed to elude the police departments of both New York City and Nassau Counties. The lockdown on the area was straight out of a sci fi movie, Close Encounters of the third Kind comes to mind. The TV news showed bands of cops, with machine guns and riot shields roaming the streets looking especially grim.

Update-  1:41 am EDT Darrell Fuller, 33, of Queens has been captured with apparently self inflicted gunshot wounds. He prognosis for recovery was described as “unknown”. No details were provided in any sources i found for the precise location.

Double Murder in the Town I love so well. I grew up walking distance from this area

I grew up here. The median by the underpass of the Cross Island Parkway at Jamaica avenue is where I drink my first beer at the tender age of 13. I routinely walked from the Jamaica  Avenue exit to the Hempstead Turnpike exit.

Belmont Park, acres and acres of it, lies to the east of the North – South Cross island parkway. It’s a perfect place to hide. As a young truant I found out how easy it is to evade detection in there drinking my illegally purchased beer. Even should yo be spotted, I have personally evaded the police there as a kid.

The Jamaica Avenue exit is a bottleneck. You really have to use this point of access to reach Nassau County from Queens due to the parkway running the length of the border. This is where the City and Nassau County merge ambigiously. no one is sure where one ends and the other begins. This is where Darrell Fuller murdered Officer Lopez as Lopez approached his car at a traffic stop. Fuller stepped out and simply shot the cop to death. Like turning off a TV.

I know this area, i even worked a few shifts at the dive bar on the corner looking towards the overpass before it burned down. The area is usually only bad at night. There are crack heads to be seen. I had to kick hookers out of the bar twice and got confronted by an angry pimp once. That was pretty much when i quit. The bottleneck nature of the area filtered all types back and forth. Like a drain, the scum collects at the edges. Many are heading from Nassau County to engage in prostitution or buy crack, especially late at night. This simply DOESN’T happen in broad daylight in Queens Village. Even a 2 minute walk away, where there was a Son of Sam shooting decades ago, it was in the dead of night.

Nassau County Police Officer Artie Lopez was murdered earlier today. He was just 29 years old.

Today, the police in this area are HIGHLY motivated. The Park is somewhat of a maze. Numerous exits offer ways into 2 different counties, Queens and Nassau. Add in the MTA Police who patrol the Long Island railroad tracks that cross the parkway between the exits and the switching yard at Belmont and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This was a major police mobilization like i have never seen before outside riots on TV.

At the Hempstead Turnpike Exit there is an opportunity to continue on towards JFK airport. Or there is a residential area, which disturbingly includes the Old Folks home where my 94 year old Grandmother lives.

Apparently the Hempstead Turnpike exit is where the car driven by Fuller was abandoned, allegedly with 4 blown tires. At this point he carjacked and needlessly murdered some poor guy from Brooklyn who was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. I know this part of the parkway like the back of my hand.

In the end the murderer, Darrell Fuller, was apprehended after trying to cheat the hangman by killing himself. I am glad he will live to stand trial, be convicted and have the Needle of Justice that is Lethal Injection slipped into his arm. Darrell Fuller is a murderer and cop killer and is a textbook case for capital punishment. New York MUST begin to use its Death Penalty.
