The Last Upper
Jesus had a huge supper, with large amounts of uppers
Cocaine, amphetamines & methamphetamine
The aliens from our future planet came to visit him on this special day
They offered him food, drink & loads of drugs
Most disciples were upset with this and walked out
A few stayed for the debauchery
There were also punks, metal heads, hip artists and free thinkers at this gathering
Such unity, democracy, in one social gathering
The image I included here is the original Leonardo da Vinci painting that showcased what was really happening during...

She never listened to anybody
This was around the time I was 8 or 9 years old.
I was in the 3rd grade.
The teacher's aid always told her and the rest of us not to stand up on the swing.
She always did it anyway.
She never listened to anybody.
I heard she had a terrible upbringing.
She was beaten by her mother for being mischievous and defiant.
Her father would come home when he wanted to.
He was a traveling salesman.
Supposedly he had two mistresses, with families in Texas & Virginia.
I hated her guts because she always used to chase me home from school, pull my hair...

A Tuesday in July at 6:28 am (Part 2)
On my second day out on the Atlantic City Boardwalk, I headed down towards the Claridge Hotel and Brighten Park. As seen in the picture. The Claridge was once a Hotel/Casino from 1981 to 2014. Since 2014 the Claridge operates as a hotel.
Brighten Park which is adjacent to the hotel sits right off the Boardwalk. This park is home to the Korean War Veterans Memorial which was decicated in July of 2000. Sadly, as I was admiring the wall and statues, about six or seven people were shooting up on the concrete steps. Horrible to see & witness. These were a mix of older & younger...

A Monday in July at 6:45 am (Part 1)
A steamy summer morning. Haze covering most of the city. I decided to head south on the most famous street in the world at one time, the Atlantic City Boardwalk.
I walked across the Boardwalk towards a walkway that led down to the beach near the LandShark Bar & Grill. An older couple with two young children were enjoying the ocean before anyone else. They had free reign. Just them and the seagulls. The waves were already looking quite menacing. That's a great thing. Later on today I'll be here, swimming, riding waves and thrashing all about.

Another Friday Summer Morning
Walking to the store yesterday morning around 10:00 AM. The 1st thing that hits me as I go out into the light is the smell. Dog shit all over the grass. Many abandoned homes that look menacing and creepy. Lawns that haven't been cut in months. I walk down my street and watch the home boys watching me. I have to look right at them, I can't help it. They piss me off when they stare. I feel like shooting their little heads off.
I turn onto the main street and walk past the family planning center. A worn out street dude looks at me and waves and nods his head like he knows me. That...

My Favorite Nephews
My nephews came over for a July 4th BBQ
I forgot to child proof my basement
Down here is where I keep all of my tools, gadgets and accessories
Not tools like a hammer or pliers
Tools that I use when I write
Pencils, erasers, highlighters, scrap paper & an assortment of books and references
I encourage the kids to go downstairs because after an hour or so outside, they want to come in
I don't want them touching or going into my living room or dining room
I thought they would sit on the couch and watch tv or utilize their i-pads
I told my brother...

No Blood, No Fowl
Once upon a world at war; July 5th 1943??? Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Winston Leonard Churchill were knee deep into their bombing campaign against Adolf 'no middle name' Hitler.
This was known as “Operation Pointblank” should this question ever decide a CITIZENSHIP?
During this offensive??? The United States would pool in (just by itself???) over a million and a half TONS worth of Earth chewing noise makers in order to help carve out all that strategic European countryside in an attempt to castrate Charley Chaplin's fascist soup-strainer twin.
Well on this...

unwritten letter
I want to know, how the fuck do you have this hold over me? Even when I build walls, and be good, and fall in love with someone else, why are you still there, like the last unsmoked cigarette in the pack, I tell myself will be my last, never mind that I quit smoking in 2015.
I sure as hell don't keep you around as back up. That would be like expecting paracetamol to numb the pain of a broken femur, when not even morphine will do.
But you are like a drug. You're my drug. You always have been. And unlike alcohol or cigarettes, I haven't been able to kick the habit that...

Kill yourself on your own time, not mine
Today I received a call from a young woman
She sounded desperate
She revealed to me that she was going to kill herself if she doesn't receive her refund by the end of this week
She claimed that she was suppose to receive about $7,000.00
I asked her a few questions, for disclosure purposes
I accessed her account and discovered that she's been trying to scam additional money for children that aren't her own
She's been doing this for several tax seasons
On file, notes and history have been recorded, explaining that she threatens suicide to the representative...

Anti-Slide Device
Has anyone ever wondered what those large knobs are on the side of escalators?
Well I'm going to tell you.
The knobs sole purpose in life is to keep miscreants from sliding down the flat space between the escalators
Or at least to guarantee that if an offender does slide down in between the escalators, they'll have a bumpy not so enjoyable ride
This leads me to my story...
When I was 14, a group of friends and I went to one particular mall on Long Island
This was 1991
Most of the state of the art, high tech malls at the time had these...

You too can own a real Shrunken Head!
If you want to add spice to your living room decor,
Then continue reading and see what's in-store
Maybe you have an enemy you would love to see dead
Maybe a special friend/lover who annoys you to no end
If so, then read these instructions on how to shrink someone's head
Step 1- Find a head. peel the skin away from the skull (hair and all) Sew the eye and mouth openings closed (to trap the soul inside so it won't haunt you) Turn the head inside out. Scrape away the fat using a sharp knife.
Step 2- Cook the head. Add jungle herbs to a pot of water...

Side effects include...
Seriously!!
What the fuck is going on out there as of late?
The biggest craze right now is to take a diabetic drug called Ozempic and use it for weight loss
I can't believe what I've been hearing and reading regarding this
In our word today, especially the USA, there's an obesity epidemic happening with everyone you may know or see around you
Has our world gone completely mad?
Doctors prescribing this, even if you don't have type 2 diabetes
Just because some assholes in Hollywood are all for it, doesn't mean it's the way to go
Goddamn! ...
