Halloween

I forgot it was Halloween. How could that happen? This was one of my favorite holidays. ( if you can call it a holiday)
Even though I saw all those silly orange lights going up all over town, I just plain forgot tonight was Trick or Treet. As the knocks and door bells rang at my house, I had no candy. I went to my Las Vegas Fund Jars and Got out the coins. Do you think that all my neighborhood kids will mind, Cold Hard Cash? I figure I am just helping the economy right? Those kids can now become a real consumer and buy their own candy.
I am feeling bad about missing Halloween. I did not even dress up my puppies Bella & Rosie.

It's Halloween...It's scarey....It's............American Healthcare!

So, is there anything more scarey than calling a report to an RN, that is REGISTERED NURSE, who has a minimum of two years post highschool education, and may have up to a bacheleor's degree, or MS, or even a PHD, and they ask you to spell medical terms? Now I can understand them asking you to spell alveolar infiltrates, or TriMaleaollar, but when they ask you to spell "CHF", it makes you question the credibility of those that tend to our sick loved ones.

When you call a report that says "bilateral pneumonia" and the RN asks you....what about the right lung? That is the one we are concerned about. There is something wrong with the system that lets these brain surgeons practice their science. Most people know bilateral means both sides. Are RNs trained to forget the common and practical things that most people know?

It's just scarey.

Hay... we made a spelling Error

The Emporer's New Clothes

Tommy said we made a mistake on the spelling of the BLOG... EMPORER...

I am bad at the spelling game.

I will have to try to fix it... or open a new one and repost this stuff... or should we leavi it alone?

The Emporer's New Clothes

The Emporer's New Clothes

Tonight I had a visit at my house from Dr. Tony O. He is very happy about the Blog. He is interested in YOUR feedback. He will be posting very soon. He really wants everyone to come and visit him at his new venue in Upstate NY.

Remember:

These are OUR Topics.. and hopefully in the near future we will all be posting Our different points of view.

I spent some of the day exploring the new Medicare Benefits ( or lack of them) I am finding the entire situation rather confusing. Any help you can give me on these would be appreciate.

Dr. Tony and I had a very broad conversation that mostly involved Politics and the State of the Union.
It was a delightful visit and he will be visiting Taylor again on Dec. 24th

I am sure that most of you will be in attendance at that gathering. Hopefully we can find sanity in this Holiday Season.

Lets Start

Dear Friends, ( Mostly, Jack, Tony, Beth and Alison)

It is clear to me, that on a regular basis that “We just don't play the game of “Empore's New Cloths”, all that well. We seem, some how, to be able to understand and, know the world we live in for what it is. Our little group of friends, are linked together by a common bond. We seem to understand the same basic things people need in life. We also have a natural talent for bring out the “Real Facts”. We also know beyond a shadow of a doughty, what motivates a person to do something. We know simply this “IT IS WHAT IT IS”

We take for granted, that everyone that exists on this planet, knows the same things we do. We are faced with bewilderment every day, when driving in traffic, walking thru the supermarket or working with our jobs. We have all experienced the bewilderment that “Common Sense is not Common”. We run into this all the time and it extremely frustrates us.

We are also the people, for good or for bad, who doesn’t judge a person by simply what they show us when we meet them. We often know from our innate instinct, how this person will act and why. We are the people, which often go deeper and find the human inside a person. We some how posses a tool that finds the person who is hidden inside lot of Social, Political, Family and Reglious issues. These are issues that everyone in the world faces, on a day to day basis.

We do this with no degree in Psycho analysis just instinct. We don’t even know we are doing this. It just happens. Why? Because we possess an instinct that other people do not have. We learned something once that other people never learned, or have forgotten. We just don’t walk trough our lives. Now, this by itself does not mean we are Happy, Happy people, but we don’t fake that either. We know what is going on and why we feel the way we do. Other people do not know this. Not the way we do.


Last Night when engaging in a conversation regarding the topics of “People at Work”, “Bad Customer Service by Major Corporations” and Clown Porn, with our beloved friend ALISON I said We should do training classes that brings people back to Reality, and teach them to Act Like HUMANS again. I understand in the corporate world, why people act like they don’t care. BECAUSE THEY DON”T They know they are not appreciated, and can be replaced by phone service, computer, or machine or forgin worker, at anytime. They just take the money, do as little as possible and run. This is why we are often frustrated by people’ and their lack of consideration for others, as well as their basic Customer Service Ability and work ethics. They simply have no reason to care. No one has taught them to look deeper into things, something we do all the time.

There is a time and place for everything. Denature Cream, Reality TV and Clown Porn.
I firmly believe, if other people could just see the world thus our eyes, they may learn something.

So here is the beginning of something that may finally Help Us and helps the world we live in. The communication of “WHAT WE KNOW TO BE TRUE”. Is this a Self Richious Work, Your “Dam Tootin’” it is. Why, because we except more from the world and we give more. The realization is CLEAR. Other people do not know what we know.

We have to write it down and teach it. It won’t change the world, but it may sell books and programs, and someone may learn something from it. Should people like Jerry Farwell, Erin Brockavitch, and Dan Abrams be the only people writing down their thoughts and opinions? Is Jessie Jackson the only person that has an opinion on ways people can help themselves?

NO. We Possess a Special Knowledge of People and the World that is just as important! It is the first step.

This is easy to accomplish, it just is US… and Our Thoughts and Ideas and Opinions. Who know? We still have the right to express how we feel in this country. It may or may not be popular, but both of those things sell books and Tapes.

Please add your Name in Front of the Title, when you have added your chapter names. Writings and or thoughts.

This is a collaboration of what WE KNOW.

There are several titles that all of us have had many conversations on… like the “Empore's New Cloths” Topic. Feel free to add any paragraphs or thoughts you have regarding the subjects.

Please Place your Initials by it, so that on publication of this book as A NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER, you can have proper Credit, and Royalty Money Distribution and be a candidate for Corporate and College Speaking Tours.
