June 2, 2007 (1:00 PM)
It rained in Florida and Georgia! Thanks to T.S.
Barry!
We have been on vacation to Michigan so I did
not have time to post news so here is what I learned from our
2500 mile driving trip.
Gasoline Prices were over $3.50 in Ohio and Michigan!
The Economy in general is in much worst shape
than I expected.
Here are some notes during the trip.
5/23/07 Shell Port Orange $3.14
5/24/07 Flying J, Rock Hill South Carolina
5/25/07 Clyde Ohio $3.49
5/30/07 Clinton, Tenn Shell $2.99
5/29/07 Anna Ohio Marathon $3.29
5/24/07 Williamstown West Virginia $3.19
5/30/07 Jacksonville, Florida Kangaroo $3.05
5/30/07 Byron, Ga. Pilot $23.30
(The last 100 miles on I-75 going south was heavy
smoke!!!)
Shell Yemassee I-95 Exit 33 Shell $3.10
I want to extend out to Mr. Brian King Store
Manager at Bob Evans in Middletown, Ohio Unit# 104 for providing
a high point in our trip through Ohio. If someone from Bobevans.com
finds this posting you should be proud of the people at Middletown
Ohio Unit #104.
Best Wishes to Mr Brian King
Next we want to thank Mr. Perky of Tecumseh Michigan
for paying for the fuel used by 12 planes during the Tecumseh
Memorial Day Parade. The parade was great the planes flying over
the Chicago Blvd. made me so proud to be a former resident of
Tecumseh. The visit to Monroe was also great to see General Custer
on his horse in the square was shocking. Then to see the place
"Dandy" enjoyed for at least 30 years (General Custer's
Father had a place on 116 acres along River Raisin....Dandy General
Custer's special horse is resting out behind the old barn. Dandy
apparently did not make it to Montana to fight because he was
injuried in 1876 battle.
If you want to learn more about General Custer
and his wonderful horse Dandy let me know I will post the links
I found. I recommend you study General Custer and his horse Dandy.
Okay now for the negative news...The Governor
of Michigan should do something about the Bigelow highway (if
you can call it a highway) ...this is the roadway directly adjacent
to River Raisin crossing General Custer's property. This Michigan
Road is America worst road pavement ever! It is 15 miles of patches
and makes me want to move to Michigan become Governor so I could
have this ro ay uch!
I am now wondering how the Democrats can fix
the problems the President and the Democrats in Congress created.
Thank you for taking to the time to email NAMB
this week. We do want to remove anyone with unethical business
practices from our association and the business in general. I
have read and reviewed your email, and I will pass it on to leadership
in the California Association. They will decide if they would
like to remove him from the association, and investigate his business
practices.
According to Florida regulations a broker does not require an
in-state office. From what I understand, as long as he’s licensed
in FL he can have his home office wherever he’d like. The Department
of Financial Services is the agency that regulates our business
in Florida. You can call 850-410-9500 or visit their site www.flofr.com.
They’d be the ones who can take away a license for unfair practices.
Again, thank you bringing this member to our attention."

It is cool and windy in Port Orange Florida .
May 17, 2007 (10PM)
Gasoline in Port Orange is now $3.08 per gallon.
Some restaurants are reducing food quality to save a few cents.
Everyone appears to be concerned by this Republican economy....or
is it a Democratic economy.....Don't blame the Independents.
Michigan better get ready we are about to visit
Tecumseh! Understand gasoline prices are over $3.25 so simply
visiting Michigan will require credit card limit increase.
Sloppy Joe and Dr. Joe have something better
to do that political stress talk. What is the purpose of talkradio.com
giving American companies an advertising break. Looking for a
new mission after vacation.
Hey Canton Bob keep the light on will see your
porch on the 77 half of trip soon. Will wait on the Pennsylvania
vacation until Washington lands.
Tonight's topic is why is Michael Savage going
nuts about the mexicans taking over our country? If we have to
learn spanish maybe we could ask them to bring use a tanker full
of crude.
Clinton Bush for the next President. If there
is someone out there that has the name Clinton Bush I would rather
vote for him than have the same old same old for the past 20 years.
I don't care if they sell the interstates to
the Austraila's they have become a gas and time wasting experience.
US 1 and the other roadways will be having increased travel.
To the young folks experiencing their first oil
screw, don't worry you have more power than the well head people.
Insulate and turn off your pool pump one day a week and turn off
your electric water heaters on weekends. The cost of those new
light bulbs is too much to justify removing your old bulbs until
it is time.
May 16, 2007 (5:00 AM)
It is a mild day here in Port Orange. The interstate
I-95 is very low based upon the lack of any traffic noise. I believe
the high cost of gasoline is impacting the economy much much more
than we realize. Nevertheless, most people still have a job but
one does not know when the hammer will drop on your fingers. Have
a great day making America a better place.
Brady is fine.
May 15, 2007 12:05 AM
This evening at 11 PM we had significant wind
gust but the sky is clear. Cool about 70 degrees. Stars seemed
a little dim. Some Orlando bound air traffic no observations except
I did not see the moon.
Look at this Mr Governor Crist:

Amazing Monday, C & H are in Key West via
a Carnival. Hope those in Pa. are enjoying the cool weather (37
degrees this morning)
Sloppy Joe is doing great after his operation.
Mary Ann my cousin made it through the night.
Topic of the day is the "Forever Stamp".does
that mean it will take forever to get there. Having been a liberal
for 40 years and for the past 18 years give or take a few years
American Conservative also known as a Nixon Republlican......I
am now ready to privatize the postal system. The tax form should
no longer be mailed to each home
Tonight's topic is Pizza.
I define a town by the type of Pizza they make
and the type of people that make the Pizza and the unique way
it is served.
Pottsville Pizza has been made with a bread type
crust that is prebaked at the bakery about 30 miles from the Pizza
store on Center Street in Pottsville. Sorry I define Pottsville
Pizza as the one made for the past 57 years at the same location.
Not the "name Pottsville Pizza that is the new owners on
the south end of town, but rather Steve's (Pottsville Pizza) I
have in my Richard's who cares hall of fame the "50th Anniversity
Pizza Box without the remains of the shredded cheese.
I sold Pottsville Pizza at Beury' Grove in the
60's. Beury's Grove is now called Moon Lake or Mountain Valley
Lake. There are no restaurants or amusement rides anymore.
Angola, Indiana had a "beautiful blonde"
owned and operated the Sir Pizza shop. It had a unique taste and
a unique paper bag with this Olde guy printed on the white paper
bag. I do not believe the pizza was on cardboard but it was a
great college hang out for the 1967-70 period. Tri State University
was Tri State College. The Sir Pizza shop was located just north
of the former railroad and on the east side of the road.
In Harrisburg Pennsylvania the smallest and best
tasting pizza had a very thin crust with about 6 slices of cheese.
Very hot and very taste with Beer. This was about 5 miles from
Harrisburg Area Community College at the original campus in the
old Army buildings near front street on the River.
Tecumseh, Michigan currently has Brownies but
the original Italian Village behind the hobby store was the best
hand tossed Pizza in Michigan from 1972 to 1976. The crust was
thick and the cheese was real cheese that made it a meal.
Toledo Monroe Street near Franklin Park Mall
1972 to 1978 had two great Pizza chains "Shakey's" and
Pizza Inn. You could eat all the pizza and chicken you wanted
for $3.00 beer by the picture while you watched old time movies
of cars running into cars and charlie Chapman stuff.
Here in Port Orange we have Spruce Creek Pizza
and Pete's Pizza is located in Daytona Beach. Several other Pizza
stores but the Pizza is generally "new york style"
Okay its your turn to add your favorite old type
pizza to this list. email candyorder@hotmail.com and I will post
it here.

Well we finally have rain in Florida (8:30 PM)
Movie Talk:
If you liked Spiderman 1 or 2 you will like Spiderman
3. (the applied sr scale is 7 because we did not see it but ch
did and based upon the applied method 7 is the best rating any
spider.
Today someone I know provided the following:
A home that cost $438,000 last year in Longwood
is selling for $383,000 and will likely appraise for about $400,000.
(Old Winter Garden Road area) Folks could not afford the increase
in payment due to interest. No future in flipping in Central Florida.
Happy to report the number of homes for sale in Deltona did not
"appear to be excessive" Deltona homes are less than
$200,000 in general. It will take another two years for the market
to fush out these troublec interest rated sales. Hopefully we
can all hang on until the economy improves.(interest rates)
Jobs in Florida are less than 3 months ago, so
this is proof that the economy is resting or going to another
part of the country.

We (John" he", and Mr SJ (crane)) we
should be concerned that our driver licenses can now be scanned
from 30 feet away. Hundreds of million being spent to control
Americans. Fortunately these words are placed in a computer in
Norway. Now if it could keep drunk drivers off the roads we may
consider. Mr. SJ said the government is selling the interstate
highways to make them toll roads. We will need to drive the large
old pipes and keep credit card purchase to zero. I will read again
1984 because it had ways of communicating by not communicating.
"So never on Sunday will mean something I did not say on
Thursday." (or you could just remember to vote and we will
stay close to the government)
All our equipment is in Iraqi and our Delta Farce
is all we have to fight and clean up after the storms. After seeing
Delta Farce I really believe I am the skinny dumb guy that hits
the water main under the Mexican town we invaded.
May 12, 2007 (10:00PM)
MOVIE TALK
Delta Farce was the best movie of the year still
laughing we both enjoyed it and will see it again. Delta Farce
is a Strong 10 on RS scale. The miracle of the movie was how our
southern Army guys solve all our problems by having a rocket go
down a dry well in the middle of Mexico and the water was gushing
from the old well. Obviously I did not tell you about the movie
but watch for the Mexican terror alert device. (you will laugh
all the way home) This is the best funny movie of the year. Don't
leave until all the credits are passed they are funny too....especially
the lawsuit one.
This evening I spoke to Jerry in Delongha Georgia
he said it just rained. No smoke in north Georgia its all in Florida.
Okay here in Daytona Beach....saw some fireworks going off over
the river.
News: I-10 and I-75 is closed near Lake City.
(40 miles each) smoke is very heavy and people are moving out
of Lake City.
Alot of train traffic in New Smyra Beach must
be china imports from Maimi going north.
Cleaned the roof today. When you live in Florida
you are always fighting the mildew.
Please pray for my cousin Mary Ann fighting cancer!
Happy Mother's Day to anyone Mother reading these
words.
Good Night. Checking emails to see if we have
more to post.
May 11, 2007 ( 8:00 PM)
Out sourcing of American jobs is causing the
R word!
I am attempting to post the words from a John
to start a discussion of a difficult topic.
"My favorite is English only. We don't do
new residents and favor by allowing bilingual as a law. It will
break the country apart like it has in many other countries
John "
I agree with John, my grandfather years ago had
to learn English just to get coffee and a roll. I refuse to visit
Mexico because I just am too lazy to learn that difficult language.
As an American we should all make this country America by talking
to the people you meet even if they are spanish.....attempt to
explain our wish to keep English (honor those people who wrote
the Constitution in English) why should it not be a French speaking
country they helped us beat the King of England....so we now own
the rights to the English language.......So I here by create a
new word...."modeerf"....it means a freedom that is
a freedom you cannot exercise. Freedom is modeerf spelled backwards.
The word "modeerf" was created in 1989
when a black office girl selected the new office carpet color
had it installed and she enjoyed it everyday. (It was gray with
a little purple). Anyway it made the office boss upset but the
freedom she had was a hidden freedom ....that is modeerf.
So if you want to say spanish words to all your
coworkers at the construction site that is modeerf you are exercising
a freedom that is hidden. It is your freedom but old "John"
type Americans don't want it to be Freedom because then we have
to learn spanish and we don't even like spanish foods, chinese
foods or even french fries. (1 out of 3 is my modeerf being exercised....I
don't eat french fries when my wife is nearby)
Another email came from Michael who is attempting
to say there are 7 different kinds of people:
1. Givers
2. Servers
3. Teachers
4. Prophets
5. Admistrators
6. Mercey
7. The other one I forgot
Email me with some news of the day.
May 10, 2007 (Thursday 8:00 PM) Daytona Beach/Port
Orange
Weather was heinz 57 a PA expression, but to
be politically correct is was Democratic and Republican. (cannot
use the s word)
Thanks Ray for being my Friend! There is nothing
to Fear but Fear itself because you have many friends!!! Just
email me an I can have it delivered.
Hello boss with the boating magazine tonight...thanks
for your past help and protection. If you want a free lunch at
Olive Garden call me I surely owe you the soup and bread!!
My neighbor said interest rates will remain unchanged.
As a VP for Riverside he believes the Feds should have reduced
the rate. They missed an opportunity to save a lot of folks.
Sports in Florida:
Does anyone know what Florida paid Donvan to
stay?
Washington the laser is working again thanks
to Mark. He fixed the $150,000 machine after it caught on fire.
The government saved $100,000 at least and it works again thanks
to the gator mechnical engineer.
Stocks appear to be in a resting spot.
You all know that a 5 year annunity has a 6%
or up to a 9% exit fee for early cash out, however, you can take
10% plus growth out each year. I plan on doing so because when
the war is over and we get into the next bull market I will need
some cash. Google is 461.7 the benchmark is 475 is yahoo and MS
impacting advertising $$.
Ray do you have any ideas for our train station.
My latest idea is to lease the Dunn Lumber company site at the
corner of Canal and US1 to put our rail line on the ground. Go
to volusia.org property appraisers site to map. (http://volusia.org/property)
type in canal and pick one in NSB then at the bottom click map
...then on the right click the aerial map zoom into the railroad
yard! Gift shop with our railroad "NSB Expresss" Electric
initially but oil later?
Does anyone out in Pennsylvania have any rails for sale?
Does anyone one out in Volusia have a money bag for this citizen
project in NSB?
Ray lets proceed with preliminary layout on the site. I have
been in telephone contact with the owner's agent.
Ray I know you don't get to NSB offen to look at the trains but
yesterday I saw the first "coal cars" (whatever they
are called) with advertising for the Marlins on two stone hauling
cars. There was at least 30 loaded cars.
I will ask the owner of the Dairy Queen to set up a small ice
cream stand within the
"NSB Express"
With enough money we could have a nice model train layout of
something you believe would be interesting.
Ray I will also have "Richard's who cares
hall of Fame" with all those Gore/Lieberman signs and the
one boss gave me "Bush"
This recent statement was made by a political
leader that I respect:
"firefighters are more assertive, and said
that's because firefighters, moving from volunteer forces to professional
departments, have become closer to their unions than their communities."
I cannot say who made this statement because
it came from a copyrighted site and further more I will have to
study this statement to see if it means anything or is it a political
statement by the group posting it. If you know someone that made
this statement call me.
the word "assertive" does not appear
the words of the person I know. He is a very nice person and would
not attack a group.
May 9, 2007 (Wednesday 9:00 PM)
This evening at 8PM sharpe the sky opened up
and we saw a little sun in the high sky. The clouds over Daytona
Beach are mostly smoke (very heavy all day) but it looked hopeful
that soon sunny Florida weather will be here. The cloud clearing
was east to west with the western portion of the opening probably
10 miles wide with a long sloping tall to the east. It was not
a bright blue sky but rather a very light gray. The remaining
part of the sky was depressing, but West to East opening in the
sky gave me hope.
It was actually cool here in Daytona Beach (about
70) it was 80 degrees in Michigan and 75 in Ashland Pennsylvania.
The lady that sends out the emails with the lastest
storm track accidentially said this Andrea storm is the first
hurrance. Yesterday at 6:30 PM it was so windy the howling sound
could be heard throughout our Port Orange home.
When I press Alt. Shift U these words will travel
the world to Oslow Sweden (Norway) or whatever to a computer over
there someplace then by the time I click refresh the words will
be back in my computer. So if Albert Gore invented the internet
he has a lot of knowledge of the Globe. Therefore we just need
to ask him to run run run...........
to see what the temperature is in 1000 points
all over the world....then take the average of the 1000 points
and do this every hour on the hour for 2 years if the daily temperature
raises 5 degrees in the second year his theory will be adopted.
If there is a 5 degree rise in temperature in any two years this
would indicate that Globe warming is occurring. However, to say
mankind is causing the Globe warming there will have to be more
study. It is cooler in Daytona Beach and much drier so the climate
is changing over Florida. We need to get working on making forest
fires from occurring year after year. We need a permanent effort
to prevent all fires. This will reduce the temperature and save
valueable energy resources. So Mr. Vice President Gore why don't
you do something for the people first before you take us the wrong
direction.
Send your emails to Richarddembinsky@hotmail.com
and I will post here.
May 8, 2007 (Tuesday 1:05 AM)
Heavy smoke in the Port Orange, Florida Hensel
Road Area!!!
Wind direction must have changed cannot see any
forest fires!!
Our correspondent in Tecumseh, Michigan reports
very hot day today 80 degrees. It was only about 70 here in Daytona
Beach and windy.
Gasoline Prices in Michigan are down to $3.17
they were $3.25
Tonight in DeLand Florida at the Racetrack gas
station I paid $2.94 but Daytona Beach is a little more.
Restaurants are seeing less business, Smoke bones
has 56 less stores. The Big Boy in Sanford Florida had less than
20 people in the store at Noon to 1:30.
Okay, SJ reports the weather over Texas is strange.
Could the weather control beam be pointed at the Mexico Texas
border spot does not move for days.
Lots of women with small kids downtown Orlando,
few cars few business people on the streets. (Jefferson , Orange,
Jackson and Magnolia ) There is a new building with a large green
grass dog way on top of a building. The very large building does
not have people in yet (strange) The building is to have movies
housing business etc.
We need a new government that tells us what they
are doing. Are they planning on selling all our interstate highways
to non USA companies?
Disney stock is $36.60.
Do you have any news stories?
The Homestead Act of 1866 enabled freedmen to
acquire government lands in Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana,
and Florida. Florida was a natural choice. It was sparsely populated
and for the most part undeveloped.
Volusia County had few black residents, actually few citizens
of any race. The population in 1860 was 1158, of which 297 were
black, according to the census. Most people in the area lived
in the western part of the county, in settlements near the St.
Johns River.
The freedmen chose to settle in the east, near the Halifax River,
on public lands secured with the help of the United States Freedmen’s
Bureau. About 500 former slaves initially settled there. An additional
1,000 would arrive via steamboats in the following months, making
this area the most populous in Volusia County at that time. Dr.
John Hawks named the settlement Port Orange in 1867.
John Hawks and several other men, who had been officers of black
regiments during the war, formed the Florida Land and Lumber Company.
They issued shares in this business venture. The officers purchased
up to $1000 in stock. The former black soldiers put up $100 each,
which was a large amount of money in those days.
Dr. Esther Hill Hawks arrived in Florida one month after her
husband. As a teacher with the Freedmen’s Aid Society, she established
what might have been the first integrated school in Florida. She
taught black adults, and both black and white children.
There was a delay in getting a sawmill up and running, so the
people lived in crude huts at the beginning, and the schoolhouse
was unfinished for quite some time. So, Esther taught school outside,
building a log fire for warmth when needed. The adults sat on
benches, and the children sat on the ground. They wrote on slates.
In November 1867, she wrote in her diary that her school was
flourishing, with 8 white students and 17 blacks. She reported
the black and white children “playing together as harmoniously
as kittens,” and that all the former soldiers were learning to
read.
But things weren’t always so rosy. Later, in a letter, she reported
that attendance was still small, and there was widespread sickness.
In planting season, some students had to work in the fields and
were not allowed to attend school. And some white parents objected
to their children attending school with blacks. Only four white
students were still enrolled.
Farming in Florida’s sandy soil and warmer climate proved to
be a problem. The settlers needed more supplies and assistance,
but they didn’t get it. Corruption in the Freedmen’s Bureau was
blamed for the majority of their troubles. It was believed that
agents of the Bureau sold supplies that were meant for the colonists.
The treasurer of the Florida Land and Lumber Company absconded
with the money that had been borrowed to finish building the sawmill.
By the spring of 1867, only about 250 people remained. Almost
half of them were children.
An agent of the Bureau wrote, “Strong men with tears come begging
for anything to appease the hunger of their families. They are
willing to go any distance to labor and do go 50 and 60 miles
to earn a morsel to keep starvation off from day to day.”
Esther Hill Hawks continued teaching, even after the colony failed.
She traveled away from the settlement to be closer to the students
who had left the settlement. That also brought her closer to unsympathetic
whites, who despised integrated schools.
In January 1869, her new schoolhouse was torched. Dr. Esther
Hill Hawks returned to New England, where she was able to practice
medicine again.
The settlement, the Florida Land and Lumber Company, and the
integrated school disbanded later that year. Many of the settlers
returned to their home states or headed for local citrus groves
looking for work. But a few of those original freed slaves remained,
and that small settlement became known as “Freemanville.”
In 2003, the city of Port Orange unveiled a State of Florida
Historic Marker on U.S. Highway 1, which recognizes the small
neighborhood that was once known as the “Freemanville Settlement.”

If you have a cat you best be careful with pet
food called Blue Spa Select Indoor cat food, Angie reports today
that her cat is sick and the vet bill so far is $400.00.
While most of us can talk about hip replacements
my cousin paid for his dog to have a hip replacement amazing,
Then he put his dad in charge of the dog while he went to Hawaii
with his wife, the dog died. Was the dog sad to have been abandoned
for a few weeks? My son and his wife will be putting me in charge
of Brady and I hope I can be up to the responsibility.
Tonight's news in the Daytona Beach area is the
weather again. It is below 70 tonight and still windy.
If you are from John Glenn's hometown Wopakatoa
(spelling later) Ohio and you are a member of the United Methodist
Church in the same town let me know. I would like to confirm that
someone is still alive and still singing the wedding bell blues/................Bill.................but
in a happier tone.
I need news so I asked this person for some news
and he said his best friend has learned that the Bush (our President)
is plugging good oil wells on his property in Texas. Okay Mr.
Vice President is this part of your oil plan? Put as much oil
in LA. salt mines and keep oil in Texas for ? rainy day? Why do
we sell almost all Alaska oil to the Japanese?
We see alot of opportunities for a new Presidential
candidate.............I for one cannot say I found "him"
yet.
The possibility that Albert Gore will run for
President is now highly likely. But the Global Warming needs to
go back to the drawing board until we have fully used all the
available Pa. Coal ....I cannot support a Presidential candidate
that does not support the use of coal.
We need to have the spinning wheel energy device
back on the drawing board (computer screen)....each home should
store enough energy for at least 7 day supply.
Weather radios may be okay but someone needs
to bring back the old sirens....................that worked in
Greensburg Kansas.
The low pressure center over the Atlantic is
moving back to Florida and it may bring the rain we need.
May 6, 2007 (Sunday)(It rained in Palm Coast
and Daytona Beach)
Correspondent SJ reported there was NO good news
in Port Orange but he was wrong ......it rained and we did not
get hit with a damaging storm. It is 9:23 PM and the wind is very
heavy but much slower than the 5 storm in Kansas. Our prayers
and best wishes go out to our fellow Americans in Kansas (Greensburg)
Okay, as promised I hereby report on the big
news in Palm Coast. I have it from someone in the corporate office
that Robert is the best grill master at Steak N Shake and he is
due for a $3.00 raise to allow him to get his wheels! Come on
Steak N. Shake corporate $7.50 is extremely low and you should
have the corporate book rewritten again to authorize bonus for
employees managing customers like Richard and grilling 800 steak
burgers. Robert is a great person and he enjoys delivery of the
worlds best steak burgers.
Now if you do a search Dembinsky you will find
that someone joking with my gubernatorial television (channel
9) in Orlando appearance made a tape an entitled it "Hamburger
Hall of Fame" ...exactly what the person was attempting to
do is unknown but I know Robert makes the best "hamburger/steak
burger" in Flager County/Palm Coast.......................so
give him an extra tip when you see him working for corporate bosses
that do not appreciate him yet.
175 Hogs were escorted through Palm Coast by
State Troopers (about 30 of the troopers)....stopping traffic
at Bell Terrace and allowing the parade of bikers to be given
the royal treatment ...but I have no idea what charity was being
supported. (10:35 AM)
I spoke to Joe the News Journal man at the front
of the CVS and he needs you help...................even though
I don't like the news journal....................Joe needs your
support because a builder in Palm Coast apparently has placed
a lien on his new home for impact fees..............ouch...............have
builders gone to hell in Palm Coast?
Next CJ at Steak N Shake has a degree in business
management (in my opinion) and is in need of your support.
Okay, our prayers must go out for my cousin Mary
Ann Simms in a cancer hospital in Phila.
Generally speaking the people of Palm Coast seem
to be happier than several months ago.
There was a garage fire in Ashland, Pennsylvania
per the correspondent for breaking news.
We should consider invading Venezuela and freeing
the people who are being held hostage by Citgo's big boss man.
Talking with a man who lived in Venezuela he said Castro is dead
and the boss man in Venezuela is happy Bush will be out office
before he adds Venezuela to the Axis of Evil. If gasoline hits
$4.00 a gallon this years here in Daytona Beach.................I
will volunteer to be the first one to land on the beach and claim
the sands as USA sands from Florida and we are here to claim them
and the oil attached to same.
Sorry I had more important words to post but
this is it for tonight!
May 5, 2007
Nice day in Pennsylvania about 60 degrees, here
in Daytona Beach the air is clean (no smoke) and it is very hot
at 12:50 PM. Storms in Kansas towns badly damaged. We need a private
force Americans Working For Americans (AWFA) in each of the 50
States at least 50 people that can help Americans when they need
help after a storm. The highly organized computer database supported
(maps, equipment financials local contacts) could give an important
immediate response to areas the Red Cross and the government seem
not capable of handling. Our fellow American Mr. Bill Gates should
help us get organized using the internet to train and develop
people willing to volunteer to travel to nearby communities within
each State. We need a private funding method such as credit card
points to AWFA rather than simply to restaurant gift cards. The
Bill Gates Credit Card could be organized to make the AWFA organization
have access to funds in emergencies by a vote of 100 (2 from each
State). Bill Gates and his associates could help us create computer
database that can be accessed via the internet with password.
We will need flat bed trucks and professional long distance drivers
who will provide temporary housing and support services. AWFA
will not replace local people doing the electric wire safety issues
etc but will provide at least a minimum of support communities
did not expect would be available to help. AWFA will arrive within
the first week of a storm event and seek to support local actions
or take on clean up on private property. Here in Daytona Beach
Area near Hand Avenue we still have mobile homes covered by faded
blue plastic. Why our local government does not help these people
clearly demonstrates a I don't care about you approach that has
evolved since 911.
Movie Talk:
Lucky you is about a poker player (Eric Bana)
and his father and his on and off girl friend Drew Barrymore.
Initially the SR index was an 8 but after further review the boring
long card games drops it back to a 7. Drew Barrymore was acting
alot and did not look as good as previous movies. This Eric Bana
lost his $10,000 ticket (money) saved for the entrance fee for
the big game so many time it was poor. The golf course game for
$10,000 was funny but stupid and because of this portion of the
movie...................I strongly recommend you save your money.....for
a lottery ticket.
It is getting harder and harder (more difficult
and more difficult) to find an employer that cares about its people.
It does not matter whether you bust it 24 / 7 they just want to
put you in your place. Will Dave go or stay. Was this a message
from our new tough government. It appears at least one home in
the Daytona Beach area may sell in the next 90 days.(Let's hope
this is a good economic sign).
I had a great post for yesterday but damn Clearwire
was not working so I deleted it.
Disney went past 36.0 a share just as I projected.
Disney new high is 36.3 as of Friday. This is amazing that the
stock market is looking to the future. The War will end soon,
the Democrats will lose another election and New York will be
New York New York New York. Is there any hope that we could get
that guy from Tennessee....can we find someone related to Nixon?
Sorry Duncan Hunter your bumper stickers are
not on my car because you failed to call me or email me, obviously
you have a low battery in your phone.
This evening my mother in Pennsylvania was happy
to see two deer at the edge of the woods. (50 feet from her home).
My 1989 Jeep (hobby vehicle 4/4) is finally getting
worked on ...so difficult to find a person interested in saving
such an old vehicle. ...it has character.....runs but not enough
to be on the road...over 2000 rpms it stops running....do you
have any ideas why....they found a squirrel nest under the hood....symbolizing
how crazy I am to dump $3000 to make it look new again.
My son's overland jeep is having transmission
trouble from pulling a boat...or he said it was poor from day
one....
If anyone reads these words let me know......I
will thank God for this miracle.
There are 67 counties in Florida and I created
an obligation to serve formula that is the number of counties
with the same letter.
NATIVE U + 2FJ + 3W +4GOD + 5BMP+ 6CL + 7HS
There is only one N A T I V (Volusia) E U (Union)
Flager Franklin....................Washington
Walton Walculla
Do you get the idea....I can and you can name
all 67 counties in less than a minute if you remember the formula.
Pennsylvania has 67 counties also and possibly
Michigan
If you want something posted that no one else
cares about just email me at candyorder@hotmail.com (attention
Who Cares Hall of Fame)
May 4, 2007 I could not post because my clearwire
service was down due to heavy smoke in the Daytona Beach area
OR something they don't care to admit. I will end my contract
as soon as I can....$180.00 to end service only have 90 days to
put up with this. I expect an apology or explanation as to why
they don't want to admit the had a technical problem.

What goes around comes around! I hope you reading
these words understand how difficult of a day it has been for
some of us living in Florida.
A friend in the West Palm Beach area is only
about 10 days away from losing his home. He apparently was coasting
when he should have been working two jobs or it appears he just
sat around waiting for legal system to save him. Then hurricane
Katrina did $100,000 damage to his home but he was too far upside
down to get an attorney to fight the T.H. insurance company.
Each of us have coasted during times when we
should have been peddling much faster, earning money not spending
it on electronic devices for entertainment or fat food.
The very heavy smoke from forest fires in the
nearby county has made this day a very unhappy and unhealthy day
and the work related events were extremely unpleasant and tomorrow
will be the most negative day in 37 years.
Okay, back to tonight's news story that has absolutely
nothing to do within you but if you could change the name of this
honored teacher you could smile remembering your best teacher.
I hereby honor my outstanding English teacher.
I still have the special work booklet with those $10 words she
secured for our class of 25 students going to college. It is amazing
how one teacher could help me the one room school student (grades
1 through 6) to become a professional Civil Engineer in the States
of Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Florida. I almost
became Governor of Florida secured 11,820 votes.
I hereby insert news article:

Here is the real news in Daytona Beach:
Forest fires northwest of town:
Please read the continuing story about purchasing
a 30 inch storage cabinet from Home Depot below. Here is tonights
events related to same. My wife carefully unpacked the plastic
parts in the box that is named Work Force 30" storage cabinet
(plastic) made in the USA. It was also broken..., returned it
again . Chris the Port Orange Home Depot store manager did a great
job. He had two workers open another box and discovered it was
also broken. That means it took 3 storage cabinets to make one.
I want to discover where in America this junk is manufactured.
To add to my unhappiness I closed my hatch back door on the large
carpet mat and the latch cut it. All this damage and unhappiness
cost me much so I cannot list all the secondary health and impact
a simple purchase had on my life.
Do not purchase WorkForce storage cabinets until
I get a call from the factory.!!! I want Home Depot to stop selling
these plastic cabinets if any other people report concealed damage
in the Work Force cabinet boxes. Packaging used is poor to zero.
They need to place protection caps on the thin plastic and make
two smaller boxes to make it easier for store workers and consumers
to handle. No I did not drop the box and the one at the store
was opened by the workers and it was also broken.
This consumer event may be stupid to you so I challenge
you to purchase a Workforce cabinet. The HD workers said they
are difficult to put together. Let me know if you get it together
in 15 minutes or if you found it to be a piece of junk. Thanks

Speedway Blvd.) that is being widened to 6 lanes within the next

also to 13.54.
Okay Mr Sloppey Joe your name has been cleaned
