CONGRESSMAN CAPUANO.....WHY SAY YOUR SORRY. ?

Capuano at a Union gathering stated that sometimes "blood" is necessary to take care of the "nuts "THis was his paraphrase along with hand gestures to the anti union people in the crowd.

I am surprised at the rhetoric....since he is normally very "glib".........

The way I look at it he was really letting us know his true feelings which is a good thing for a politician.......

his apology was that he let his emotion control his words.....We are all human.....

I suggest that he not blame the Republicans and conservative talk hosts for all the violence .......due to words of anger.

SURROUND SOUND.......

Yesterday was a fun Birthday for me.I got a "ton"of wishes from friends on Facebook,old friends and family......I was reflecting on all of these people and it revived an old thought that "birds of the same feather flock together "...............

If you are in a room with a surround sound system giving out music your "mood"many times becomes part of the beat that penetrates your body..........The same with the people you surround yourself....

I have been blessed with friends and family around me and it has become part of my "very being"......

Thank you all.......

BIRTHDAY THOUGHTS..........

The digital world is changing governments, such as Egypt and who knows where else into the future.It is also changing birthdays.......I have been getting Happy's all week and especially today on the day via Facebook........and it is big......

How big.......I am not going to tell you directly.....but I will give a hint..........
I ran approximately seven miles this morning,and I have run every birthday as long as I can remember.....maybe the Navy stopped me once but I don't have a specific memory of it happening.

I do remember my thirtieth birthday in which I worked all day,and did not arrive home until about 7:30pm
with a big snow storm going on......I almost did not run,but I got dressed....and went outside ; I had to run in,over and through snow banks and dodge plows......but I did it......

That was forty years ago..........wow........I am not afraid......I don't think.

FACEBOOK,TWITTER, YOU TUBE,,,,,CHANGING THE WORLD

Hi friends......I have missed you.....The weather has made me a "a captive" to my day job.

Can you believe it..........The digital age has helped cause one of the biggest uprisings in modern times......and for the most part it was peaceful.........I think this is just the beginning.

Every Government that suppresses its people is going to  have to deal with the ability of citizens to communicate and plan with the power of Facebook,Twitter and You Tube.

Tyranny has a new enemy..........

I realize that the future of Egypt is uncertain.....however they have positioned themselves to create their own destiny.It is up to our Government to convince them that America and Its support should be their ally.

SACRED HEART YOUTH GROUP........HOW TO GO !!!

So......what did you do last Saturday ? Anything good for yourself......and/ or others..............

I know a group of young people that compose the Sacred Heart Youth Group of Lynn,Ma. can answer the above questions.......The group is run by Richard & Glynis Covino-Madaglia who are local heroes that do not seek publicity or favor.....but continue to make "a difference " day after day......

The group collectively planned an undertaking which ended up with them bringing 45 backpacks filled with hats,combs,socks,razors,books and a personalized letter of hope.........The recipients were the homeless.......The look in the eyes of the people receiving the backpacks was one of bewilderment in that they normally live a life of "not being seen".....and they usually get no attention.......


If you ever doubt the "young of our Nation " come down sometime and meet these kids sometime.They are our "best and brightest "......
