Repeating the mantra over and over as the photographer adjusted lights and snapped his pictures...
"My feet can taste the food. My feet can taste the food,"
and then the thought slowly evolved to, "I wonder if I will even GET a bite of a cheeseburger?"
And Pep`e opened his eyes slightly, and seeing the photographer, force himself to believe a cheeseburger WILL find its way into his mouth...
"either feed me a cheeseburger, or, tonight, while you sleep, I will shred every pair of Italian, handcrafted shoes you have...and leave you with that smelly pair of Converse sneakers waaaayyyy in the back of the closet."

"I WILL taste cheeseburger. I WILL taste cheeseburger. I WILL taste cheeseburger,"

What Do Arctic Foxes Dream?

2011-12-06T16:22:00.001-08:00

That's an easy question...
They dream about lazy cats
relaxing in strange places...

And about battling MOM
A Powerful Grande Monster,
and Laughing during their paces...

And about finding warmth
and comfort reflected
from their innocent little faces...

And they dream about hugs and kisses
Sharing them with loved ones,
and the tears start making their traces.

(Would someone turn off the melancholy
pass a tortilla, some refried beans,
and plenty of saucy quesos! )

BUPKIS

2011-10-05T16:38:00.000-07:00

Alternative forms bobkes, bopkes, bubkes, bupkes, bupkiss, bupkus

Etymology
From Yiddish באָבקעס (bobkes, “(large) beans”), from קאָזעבאָפּקעס (kozebopkes, “goat droppings”), from Proto-Slavic *koza (“goat”), and diminutive of Slavic root боб (bob, “bean”).

Noun: bupkis (uncountable) absolutely nothing; nothing of value, significance, or substance We searched for hours and found bupkis.

Usage notes
Often translated as meaning small round fecal pellets, referring to the shape of goat droppings. A colorful usage, though more emphatic expression (in Yiddish more so than in English) is "Bupkis mit Kuduchas", translating roughly to "shivering shit balls" - kuduchas referring to the condition of generalized shaking palsy.

Thinking He Would go Visit Lil Lamb down in Florida...Pug Finds Clothes that Seem to Befit Someone in Florida

2011-09-13T11:10:00.000-07:00

This isn't an easy thing to do, believe me.
I went to Florida to visit my sweetie pie, and because i came from Indiana, I wore warm clothes on the way down.
Good thing...

It turned to 26 degrees at times...
Here...
Just look at these two ice-cycles.

so......
Dressing Right for a visit to Florida is a hard thing to do, and Pug was just sure as a dog peeing on a bush that he had found the right clothes....

But, the strangest thing....

People kept running away and screaming while waving their arms in the air like little kids....

And none of us can figure out exactly why.

Well, we may have a clue...
but, without a lawyer's blessing, we're not allowed to guess...

How about you?
Can you figure out why everyone is running away?
What?
Boston Marathon being held South of the border, now?
Maybe the new gop is coming to town?
(well, I guess they are...)

An old doctor from the village had a sweet spot for Almond Daiquiris. Always went to the same bar for ten years to get that great drink..an Almond Daiquiri.

Went one night and Dick, the bartender, was out of almonds, so, he found some Hickory nuts, and used them, instead, and put the drink in front of Doctor Jones. Jones took a sip, and his nose wrinkled up, and he asked,

"Is this an Almond daiquiri, Dick?"

Dear Evan Bayh, I wrote to you about job creation...

...and you decided to hang on Harry J Anslinger's coat-tails.
In any given year, there are some 2000 alcohol overdoses in the USA. Mostly kids.
But as far as deaths in particular?
TOBACCO …………………… 400,000
ALCOHOL ……………………100,000
ALL LEGAL DRUGS ………….20,000
ALL ILLEGAL DRUGS ……….15,000
CAFFEINE …………………….2,000
ASPIRIN ………………………500
Marijuana? ……………………zero.
No overdoses, no poisonings…Nada.
1937, NYC Mayor LaGuardia had 31 impartial scientists do a study, and they found that marijuana does not lead to anti-social behavior, has no ill effects at all, in fact.
1967, Dr. Leo Hollister, Assoc, Chief of Staff at Palo Alto VA Hosp. and staff performed a similar study and found that it does NOT lead to harder drugs (in fact, helps those on hard drugs kick their habit) and is harmless compared to other drugs (look at aspirin deaths).
1972, President Nixon hired on a commission that performed the most comprehensive study on marihuana ever done in the USA, and found, again, that it had been demonized way beyond reality. It was safe, harmless, and made people laugh and get hungry.

If that isn't enough for you to reconsider, then here are the costs of USA enforcement
1970-1977=$76 Billion.
1980-1998 = $214.7 Billion
From Reagan through Clinton the costs rose from $9-$12 Billion to $15 Billion annually.
Further, the present costs range at around $40-$42 Billion dollars a year today to enforce and imprison people who just want to smoke the stuff.

Now, my interest is creating jobs, and not having a discussion on morality, however, my own thoughts on the matter are that if it is illegal for our own good? When are we going to start waking people up at 0530 hrs for calisthenics and exercise? Everyday...
Because that is also good for us.

Do you get up at 0530 hrs and exercise, sir?

your's truly,
berry

.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.

I send my thoughts to our government officials often. President Obama probably the most.
Note the costs involved with enforcement and ask yourselves if it's worth it to imprison some guy for smoking a pipe of pot.
At $42 BILLION ($42,000,000,000) ANNUALLY? That's $117 from every man woman and child in the United States of America. Every year.
And, as you probably already know...the costs aren't dropping anytime soon.

So, do the research, I left links there, but the question I posed to the google search engine was:
how much does the US government spend on marijuana enforcement?

I believe it's past time to change the law for a plethora of reasons.

Job creation would open tens of thousands of jobs. From the simple, one man operations all the way to major factories.
Farming, soil rejuvenation, canvas, rope, thread, paper, fiber composites (which is better than plastics because plastics use petroleum), clothing designers, cloth designers, clothing manufacturers,.retail stores, wholesale outlets ("sit down" jobs), oils, housing materials, road construction materials, and, ...can you believe it...musical instruments.

So you can see why the title is what it is, right? We, the taxpayers of the United States of America are paying the government $42 BILLION a year to keep jobs away from us, imprison us, over a weed that grows in every state in the union.

I think that definately qualifies this as...

Amidst the storm, don't hide in the corn...

2010-07-19T07:00:00.000-07:00

Amidst the storm, the rumble of loudness
Don't just hide in the corn, the fields, the grass...

Instead, stand tall like the Willow Tree, listen to the winds
Hide beneath my arm, hold me tight, and as night descends.

We'll watch as Heaven surrounds us, wraps us into its arms,
Bathes us both in all the color and the charms,

And even within the vast power, the strength of the storm's edge
it will be OK...We will survive it, probably more to chance than knowledge.

and as last light turns dark, feeling raindrops, we take flight.
But find ourselves stopping for one more color filled sight...

An Idea For OUR Professional Politicians, too!

2010-01-28T17:41:00.000-08:00

According to Anand, the idea was first conceived by an Indian physics professor at the University of Maryland, who, in his travels around India, realized how widespread bribery was and wanted to do something about it. He came up with the idea of printing zero-denomination notes and handing them out to officials whenever he was asked for kickbacks as a way to show his resistance. Anand took this idea further: to print them en masse, widely publicize them, and give them out to the Indian people. He thought these notes would be a way to get people to show their disapproval of public service delivery dependent on bribes. The notes did just that. The first batch of 25,000 notes were met with such demand that 5th Pillar has ended up distributing one million zero-rupee notes to date since it began this initiative. Along the way, the organization has collected many stories from people using them to successfully resist engaging in bribery.
One such story was our earlier case about the old lady and her troubles with the Revenue Department official over a land title. Fed up with requests for bribes and equipped with a zero rupee note, the old lady handed the note to the official. He was stunned. Remarkably, the official stood up from his seat, offered her a chair, offered her tea and gave her the title she had been seeking for the last year and a half to obtain without success. Had the zero rupee note reached the old lady sooner, her granddaughter could have started college on schedule and avoided the consequence of delaying her education for two years. In another experience, a corrupt official in a district in Tamil Nadu was so frightened on seeing the zero rupee note that he returned all the bribe money he had collected for establishing a new electricity connection back to the no longer compliant citizen.

Give someone else a chance!"
