As I sit writing this, Men and Women, friends and neighbors, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, fathers and mothers, grandfathers and grandmothers have either recently departed or coming back and readying themselves to go. Some are simply in the middle of their deployment. Putting their life on the line for us around the world. While back home their love ones live on edge and alone for us! With veterans day just passed and thanksgiving on the way, plus don't forget Christmas following close behind it so easy to get caught up in our own drama. Which by no means is small, as I write this, boxes are stacked all around me with more appearing every few minutes all looking for a home back in AZ. Thanks to my brother I have a place to shelter the storm for awhile. I sit wishing the best for my friend Don who just lost his mother. I know losing my mom is still on my mind quite often. You know that the loved ones whe lost would want us all to go on, I don't know if it's the guilt of wishing we had seen them just once more or said more nice things to them or maybe just listened longer to them. Whatever it is, sooner or later reality sets in. We must move forward, generate new memories and traditions. Cheerish what has been, look forward to what might be, but what is most important is to live right here right now. Live in the moment! Breathe in every second, don't waste one tiny second.

Money doesn't buy you Happiness!
They say money doesn't buy you happiness, hm mm let's look at that. I woke up this morning naked and cold, with the wind flapping my cardboard box around, only to discover that it wasn't the wind but the ceiling fan which someone had set on category 4. I felt a paw in my face and knew at once either Cujo needed a pedicure or she wanted out! BTW she could have used a Mentos! As we walked out for her first constitutional on this cool crisp Georgia morn, I noticed the Big Dipper in the sky slowly being eclipsed by the clouds. It looked glorious! I thought that's something you can't buy. I thought about the beauty of watching the sunset on the beach, when it falls in slow motion until it gets half way, then just seems to disappear in seconds. I remembered the first time I saw the sunrise over the Grand Canyon, AWESOME! You could feel the warmth bouncing of those crevices. Sort of like sitting in the Forrest before dawn, feeling the air becoming a little more crisp just before sunrise. The almost sudden appearance of birds,animals, and noises as the sunlight begins to trickle through the trees. That morning in the Grand Tetons when light brought into view a beautiful Bull Moose from what appeared to be shadows. Maybe that feeling you get as you sit on the freeway, the tail lights fade, the horizon brings warm light and for just a second every thought seems to fade. Sometimes it's the profile of a loved ones face. Which despite what they may think are defects seem to bring a smile and joy that fills your soul and body in a way that nothing else can. You feel lucky just to be in that moment! It's these times that money doesn't even enter your mind. You feel simple and happy, loved and wanting to love. When everything pauses in nirvana. You can't buy this! Precious and fragile it can fade in a instant! So when you are given these gifts of beauty to mind and spirit, really savor them remembering all you need to is relax and let it happen. Don't rush, don't plan or organize, just breathe. Life is short my friends, in the end it passes in a second.
Besides have you really seen anyone laughing all the way to the bank?

The Weekend is Here!
Another clear crisp morning in Georgia! Cujo aka Roxy just love the cold! Hottie seems to dig it also keeping that pneumonia hole close to 24/7, Hottie says I should put on clothes! C'mon my mind is always in the frame of warm breezy short wearing weather. Enough weather talk, I'm so excited, I woke up this morning checked my email and found out that I've been selected to receive a $1000 walmart card, a new laptop from Dell, my cash advance is waiting for me,I've got grant money, a stimulus loan up to $1500, a young Russian babe just saw my picture online and has fallen in love with me, and some guy in the UK just discovered that he and I have a common realitive who has just left a huge unclimed estate. No get this, the guy in the UK just happens to be a lawyer and wants to make sure I get the assets from this huge estate and it only requires me just to deposit a check in my bank account and send back my own personal check just a small portin of what I will receive. Hearing this I've packed my bags I'll be leaving soon to hang on some Carribean island to live out my days! Oh hang on one last detail. I need to email back my new friend in the UK with a quick change of plans. I need him to hop on flight stop by Walmart pick up my new $1000 gift card, drop by Dell pick up that new laptop (we'll need it on the beach)naybe he could pick up my stimulus check for $1500 and don't forget my grant money. Of course last and not least by any means he needs to first fly to Russia to pick up that chick that digs me so much! I'm sure we could use her on the beach too!
Wow that's all I have time for. The next time we talk I'll probably sipping cool liquid refreshment with my new friend, EXCELLENT!
Wait a minute .....wait .... wait ... I've got mail ... It's from my Friend in the UK .... *&%$ it seems he can't leave the country! I thought my dreams had come true, I guess I better go mow the lawn. Last time I was that close to nirvana was last week when I missed the Lotto by just 5 numbers, Damn!

Wow getting ready for Arizona!
Well it won't be too long before I get back to AZ. Finally I miss the great diversity of landscape, people who don't say y'all, NO HUMIDITY and of course all my friends. I'm doing well even though like many of you I'm dealing with financial hardship. In this time and age it's just part of the process. I'm sure most of you know I left the ride on September 15Th 2009. Well I really didn't leave they released me and that's really what it was a release. So far it's been interesting, I'm working very hard on a new Internet radio station that will be available on your smart phones and yes off course the I-Phone. I really believe that in a few years idiot terrestrial radio station owners will have let themselves be pushed out of every sales revenue stream to the point they will have no one and I mean NO ONE to sell to. I worked for a guy I thought was one of the last real owners, he too has succumbed to the pressure of the corporate radio structure, you know milk toast "family oriented radio" where creativity is great as long as any of your talent can be replaced by a liner reading token no talent suck up that would pay to be on the air. The kind of person that has to wipe the brown smudge off his face when the boss stops short! Hey I know the work environment has changed and jobs are hard to come by, real employers want team players sure, everyone should bring something to the table though. Everyone should exhibit professionalism with individual insight combined with fresh ideas. This allows for a healthy exchange of thoughts which leads to great brainstorming sessions not a YES MAN HOOT-ANNY! That is a REAL TEAM PLAYER SOMEONE WHO CARES ENOUGH TO PLACE IT ALL ON THE LINE FOR THE TEAM. Not some scared kiss-ass! Please don't misread me there are still some great owners out there. Ladies and Gentlemen who want to win, they believe there is no box to think out off. Braving a New Frontier, believing that anything is possible. These are the real winners the "REAL NEXT GENERATION". These are the people who we want on our team!
In closing this blog will now come out daily, I will update you on where things stand Internet - phone app/wise weekly! If you have any ideas or thoughts please comment and feel free to be part of the team!
A quick Salute to IHOP who has the guts to show real male bonding and open communication on their current TV ad where one toy soldier says to the other "What did you eat last night?" reply "I had nuts."
