Singer and 1970's, bulging crotched, heartthrob, Tom Jones recently appeared near my home at an outdoor theater. When I first saw the signs posted promoting the event about one month earlier I did a double take. Tom Jones? He's still out there? I hope he isn't thrusting his pelvis in and out like he used to or he'll get hip dysplasia.
I know you are waiting for me to say I attended the concert but I didn't and I'm sorry to disappoint you. Not having first-hand knowledge no longer… Continue
I'm a nurse and a bodyworker/energyworker, as well as being one of those people for whom physical affection is not just pleasant or fun but a downright necessity. I'm a hugger. I'm a toucher.
I think, though, that in modern society, we just don't get enough casual contact to keep us from getting depressed. We think it is loneliness, we think it is horniness, we think it is a lot of things, but what a lot of it is, simply, is lack of physical…Continue
I sometimes wonder: Whatever happened to David Freund? David Freund attended my junior high school, Wagner Junior High School in Philadelphia. We were in the same classes in the seventh grade (homeroom teacher, Miss Lillian Camaioni) and the eighth grade (Mrs. MacKay). He later attended Central High School, but transferred after the tenth grade. We were in the same homeroom classes in ninth and tenth grades; the homeroom teachers were Mrs. Barbara Sandler, a French teacher and Mr. Santo Diano,… Continue

This is how we informally greet people where I am from in the union. It is always how I begin my entry onto every social media site that I am a member of.
It is good to see that folks are settling in here on NIng. I have memberships on other Ning sites. Once you become familiar with the different possibilities, I think you will enjoy being here.
What is Beauty? There are so many young girls that are so confused by magazines as to what beauty is or is not.
Beauty starts with a kind heart. It is a giggle shared between friends*it is a secret kept about a suprise party* it is a secret broken when abuse is happening* it is a sparkle in your eyes when the person you love walks into the room* it is opening a door or letting someone get in front of you in the store.Beauty is knowing that it is triangles squares and circles and every… Continue
Can someone tell me, please, why people over on the original TBD site are STILL adding friends there and changing their profile pictures and information?
I feel like I should be standing on the deck, playing "Nearer my God to thee"
Life is so full of changes! Some of us balk at them and others look at them as and adventure!
I love the twists and turns life makes it would get very boring to see the same rose everyday and not see any other flowers,tulips dasiy,blackeyed susans.
Grab the changes life through at you and enjoy them!

Regardless to whom you are, what you are, where you are or how old you are at this point in time of your life, everyone has a dream, aspiration, fantasy, objective or goal in this life. What is it that you would like to accomplish during your limited time on this earth? It may sound dumb, stupid or crazy but everyone has something that they dream about being successful at. What's amazing is that you're probably not the only person with your quest. Someone else would probably like to do what… Continue

I gave the chimney on my house a haircut today. It had become overrun with thick, ivy vines, that stuck up in the air about two feet, spreading out in different directions. Reminded me of Don King's hair. I'd been ignoring it because I feel Don King is wealthy enough to get his own haircuts. Vines are stubborn too. They sprout hundreds of tentacles that embed themselves in the concrete in between the bricks and hold on for dear life. After two and one-half hours of hacking, chopping, and… Continue
There's this old guy who lives in my apartment building. He's lived in the building for about 35 years. He's in his late seventies.
This is what gets me about the guy. He works out every day in the building's fitness center. In his street clothes. He uses the reclining stationary bicycle. I know this isn't the Christian thing to say, but neither I nor Stanley Schmulewitz is Christian. The guy is a total pain in the ass. He listens to the radio while he works out. He laughs, talks to… Continue
This just in as a twist in my blogging if that is what they call this I am doing it is all green to me. I have predicted many world events before they happen and in each instance the news reports them after wards. I see and hear these so called self professed psychic clowns not that I believe any of that hooky pooky. I myself know better. There is a educated and uneducated versions of all professions in life. There are Doctors who like the Medicine Man and Witch Doctors are Homopathic Doctors… Continue

Reenactors Set to recreate the burning of Norwalk.
Here we go again. My city was apparently the site of a minor battle during the Revolutionary War where British soldiers burnt a bunch of buildings. This weekend a group of history reenactors will recreate the battle.
I've had enough of these people. What's the matter the paint ball facility all booked up this weekend? Is the Patriot all sold out at Blockbuster?… Continue
Did you know that President Obama and Senator Ted Kennedy are rushing a massive socialized healthcare plan through Congress -- with a final vote expected before August!
This Obama-Kennedy healthcare plan imposes $1.5 trillion in new taxes and forces Americans to “hand over” their health care decisions to politicians and bureaucrats. This nationalization of our health care system will cripple businesses and cause a massive increase in government control over our lives.
After all the dislocation of my life, and the uncertainties of my existence, it is paradise to be in this quiet apartment in Washington. Some people say that my neighborhood is the dreariest part of northwest Washington. I am a stranger here, but I feel at home: it is life, and I am content--yes, miserable, but content with my misery.
I spend the day doing small things, drinking my morning cup of coffee, going to the library, then coming home and listening to music; afterwards going… Continue

No Matter what we as a people may or may not have thought about Michael Jackson as a person we can look a this acts as a human being. We as a people can look a the negative or look a the positive both do exist . The acts of kindness and good deeds this man did can only make us look at what a difference he made in this world and as a human being he was such an addition not subtraction to it. He made the difference and kept on making the difference with doing and giving monies and time to…Continue
