Suicide - Easy Tiger

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

I have contemplated the most difficult decisions and i was at my Dads in Parma Heights and my buddy Danny B to told me that its a selfish act, it’s only a displacement of of your pain.  Your Pain will get passed on to your family, to the people you love, they love you more than you could ever comprehend; If not, at least I do.Ask for help and support and you will find it. some people only see themselfs in others.  Book of Job explains that some times god does test our faith.  They say jesus read the book of job.  Many people go into poverty during this stage if they arent ever so careful.One must activate their true potentiality. There is also another book that really helped me field this question, called the Victor Frankl,, wrote a question in the form of a book.  And his question was what is it that makes people have drive. The Will to Meaning. Some times the searching for, is what drives us.Usually it is a primary need of some sort, or you dont think you will find your sole mate. 

Whipple

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

I love this guy.

whipple with …

I totally failed this collective bargaining class, which was suppose to be management and labor relations. When i say i failed i got below a B. Mind you, at the time i had been laid off by BOA for making to much money, and the management really didn’t have the fortitude to promote me.

A marketing teacher asked me in 2003 after i moved back from Colorado why i was there, and i told him the direct answer to his direct question. It’s the cheapest way to transfer my debt to a lower fixed rate.

Knowing this, Whipple totally puts himself on the line for me and takes me to Germany. The trip cashed out my savings…four k, and i didn’t get financial aid because i wasn’t going full time - due to the C, i was down graded in the department of graduate studies.

So we are in Germany, Heidenhiem was awesome, totally cool.
But two feet of snow kept us in Cleveland for an extra day or so. So we only got one day in Heidenhiem and we made something of it. Carl Zeiss Optics, great place, they gave us some optics to play with…

We leave Heidenhiem and go to Berlin, I am scared. I dont scare easily. It was something in the air. The guy at the door of the club had barb wire tattooed on his face. Once i was inside, it was sex on the walls, and they danced all french which was amusing for me. The Germans in Berlin aren’t Munchens thats for sure.

To make a long story short, Siemens was Wharton, thank you Whipple, Smart Car Mercedes, three course meal and all. The company was fashion similar to shanghai (does anyone know how to pronounce shanghai or beijing)

Walden Books

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

In high school i left the Heinezs grocery store to be kicked off the soccer team.   I got a job at walden books, its like borders without the coffee, which was ok by me.  At the time i didnt value the grounding effects of coffee.  They then decided to put me one night a week at the calendar Kiosk, where i would cover one of the last numbers of the isbn, international standard book number and calculate the final digit.  Yeah, i am a product of the public schools, i learned this basic skill from a math teacher at lakewood, high school. Greatest Job i ever had, sat and read titles and arrangements of meanings.  Every Once in a while i would sneak of to arrange books and read some of what ever i found appealing.  

McCain is Tom Cruise in Lions for Lambs

Saturday, September 13th, 2008

I like this movie a bunch…Except tom cruise never held mind over pain.  While McCain did. Definitely check out Dr. little bit taylor.  The special features on the disc are enless, beautiful minds.Wait a second, a bit is a term for an exchange.

Credit Cards

Friday, September 12th, 2008

What is happening with the credit cards limiting the amount of gas at the pump.  They make the most if gas goes up.  Wait they get 1 or 2 in interchange but are unsecured and result in a greater frequency of default while the petroleum companies are gaining 3 to 10 percent or what?   I loved working for MBNA Al Lerner really saw the vision these guys had and help them out to see it through long before.  He put 100 million of his own money and said you should put in at least this much. BOA came in and it was over, wont show a foot print in ohio.  5/3 is where it is at in the Ohio Banking Scene as far as i hear.   Key is clutch, but a bit detached from their customers.  Honesty is best policy.  Float me a loan or something, call me up and help a brother out. I personally like first federal of lakewood they alway had dumb dumbs for us, and the birthday card let us know they thought we were significant.   There is no such thing as preditory lending, its called canabalism.
