this aol is acting up again...
so to go with 25 words or less about today's concept.......
with all these people involved in the sexual harassment scandals... i would like to identify the real criminals in congress who voted in that "way to report a problem" .. the flow chart was briefly on tv and not seen it since... it was flow charted so carefully that no intern could possibly go thru it- so any congressman who voted that into being is guilty of the worst "obstruction of justice..." i can't possibly remember it all but it went somethign like this .. report the problem to xxxx then wait 3 months and they will give you a report... which you then take to the committee and they will do somethg 4 months later... which then goes to the justice department for 6 months and they will give an opinion in 2 years. whatever... you get the point....
i would love to have some of you retired lawyers find that document and then find out who signed it - so we can give it the publicity it deserves....

rushing.... 3000 calendars are due to arrive today--- and the only place i can think of that is clean and dry.... is the "greenhouse" as clean and accessable by tractor.. linda said she needs 6 cartons here to start... - the rest need to be easily trasportable by bucket of the tractor-- and then there is the transportable to the post office ( where they hate to see us coming.)... that will be in my car.... probably-- so on camera you should expect to see the arrival big truck.... -- and bunch up to be filled in the house.. on camera.... which once filled, will go by tractor to my car ( by the greenhouse) and next bunch of boxes to th e house---
we got alot of them this year..
the other thing we have is all the photo's from previous years in "photo mats" which we can talk about later... but they are here..$10+$3 will probably ship most-- the other thing i am going to do next year is to do one of those composite circles of all the pictures in a chicken brick board... but that is next year.... got to get these calendars sold first...

SEAGRAM & I HAVE BEEN BUSY THIS FALL. FOLLOWING MY SHOULDER SURGERY IN SEPTEMBER, WE TRAVELED FROM LONG ISLAND TO NYC ALMOST EVERY TWO WEEKS FOR PT. SHE MANAGED REMARKABLY WELL IN THE CITY, TOLERATING THE BUSTLE BETTER THAN I DID. SO MANY PEOPLE COMMENTED ON SEAGRAM’S GOOD LOOKS AND GOOD BEHAVIOR, INCLUDING STRANGERS ON THE STREET, THOSE AT PLACES WE VISITED SUCH AT THE MET (ART MUSEUM), AND HOSPITAL STAFF. ONE ENCOUNTER WAS ESPECIALLY MEMORABLE: AFTER CHATTING WITH A WOMAN AT PT, SHE SAID WE “MADE HER DAY” AND GAVE ME A BIG HUG - NOT TYPICAL NEW YORKER BEHAVIOR, BUT SEEING SEAGRAM SEEMS TO BRING OUT THE BEST IN PEOPLE.
THIS THANKSGIVING TRIP WAS EXTRA SPECIAL BECAUSE TRAVELING HAS BEEN SO CHALLENGING FOR YEARS. IN FACT, I VISITED MY FAMILY IN 2010 AND HAD BEEN ABLE TO RETURN ON ONLY ONE OTHER OCCASION. I WAS ESPECIALLY HAPPY TO SEE MY GRANDMAS AGAIN!! WE VISITED ONE GRANDMA IN HER NURSING HOME ON THANKSGIVING, AND SO MANY RESIDENTS, THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS, AND STAFF WERE DELIGHTED TO SEE HER. SOME SIMPLY WATCHED SEAGRAM, AND SMILED, WHILE OTHER PEOPLE ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT HER. WE WERE HAPPY TO SPREAD SOME HOLIDAY JOY ON THANKSGIVING...I AM THANKFUL FOR SEAGRAM, AROUND THANKSGIVING AND EVERY DAY. IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER FOR JUST OVER A YEAR, BECAUSE SHE IS SO INTEGRAL TO MY LIFE THAT IT BECOMES DIFFICULT TO THINK BACK TO LIFE BEFORE OUR MATCH. AT THE SAME TIME, WE HAVE BEEN SO BUSY THAT OUR YEAR TOGETHER HAS FLOWN BY. SHE HAS HELPED ME TO WALK, AND KEPT ME FROM FALLING - BUT SHE HAS DONE SO MUCH MORE!! THANK YOU
