Jerome L. Wilson

It's bloody cold in the apartment,indeed,I'm wearing my winter coat.I wonder if this sign of thing to come,will 2013 be a cold year? Next March I be sixty,an age one starts thinking of death,henceforth,one thinks back on one's life.I thought today of Jerome L. Wilson.Who was he? And why does come to mind. I remember him as commentator for WCBS on politics,he had been Assemblyman in New York but his seat was lost to redistricting,so ran for Congress,John Lindsey old seat Lindsey of course,had been elected mayor in 1965.Wilson lost to Theodore Kupferman.Wilson then went on T.V WCBS very cordial relation with Jim Jensen the anchor.Year later I had correspondence with Jim Jensen,who thought I could be writer.What a joke damn word no sense grammar and damn spelling I know word put can't put them writer the letters dance in head and spit out unintellectual and damn prepositions words but and the I miss them there often left of my writing god damn dyslexia cures no man should ever have.
I remember two things about him on T.V:one was I think in 1973 he had broad with little pieces like button almost of potential mayoralty candidate and put Mario Como,who was just about unknown at the time button up there,almost as after thought saying he just look good.Of course, Cuomo had been involve as meditated dealing with open housing in Forest Hills,it was sticky situation because it pitted liberals and black against Jews.Second time was when Wilson left WCBS,I think was in Teaneck,New Jersey and come on counter a WCBS editorial.He was opposed to nationalizing welfare,which time was big issue liberal,have nation pay liberal generous welfare,hence,saving money for liberal but Wilson was against it which surprise me for he was a big liberal.

In search of F.Trubee Davison

A Dec. day cold in beginning a hint of snow. Before snow come,I went to bank deposit a dividend check,a special,from Limited the owner of Victoria Secret.When deposit the check the teller,an old man not a regular teller at the bank(Bank of American branch in Fort Lee New Jersey) he really looked over like it was fraudulent,even put toward light with head underneath looking for something and took a while for him deposit-didn't like being treated like suspect it's happen too often in my life.What heck is wrong,I'm very mild nice person and yet often treated wrongly,I know I have dyslexia,hence,I do things different and society often treat me like outcast.There so much crap I sorry say people get information so often that wrong yet society reward them and kicks me in the teeth.
After the bank,went the House of pancakes the breakfast when back the apartment.But got bug to find out more about F.Trubee Davison and see about William (Wild Man) Donovan who for government of New York in 1932 and his running mate was F.Trubee Davison,who also worked in C.I.A and of course Donovan's O.S.S was forerunner of the C.I.A so went to Library in Fort Lee but it was closed because of the snow.

32 years ago I lost my best friend,my dog Duchess

On 12/28/80 a dear friend,indeed,my best friend past from this earth.Duchess my wonderful dog,how I miss her,her smile,her clever way the love she bought me.I was only child,indeed,lonely child she brought such in life into my life.
At time I left home lived Houston with my cousin Larry,not much of man limited in brains and character.Anyway,mother call me the conversion went on them she broke into crying she said she had put Duchess to sleep.That was soft side she grow attract to Duchess never would thought it in becoming I don't think she like dogs but grow love Duchess.Of course,Duchess was very lovable she did believe if it was good enough for people it was good enough her.She would like sleep in my bed,a high riser,and she when I was away in collage.Like to put her head on pillow.
I miss,I do have ashes,maybe if I'm buried,not body taken apart by medical people,or buried in common grave,I like ashes to put in grave.
I loved that dog so much,I miss her not mother,not grandfather but Duchess is one I like see again.
Fate is cruel our life vanish with time just all us are forgotten how Shakespeare put it Macbeth:To-morrow and To-morrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day.To the last syllable of record time;
And all yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death.Out,out brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow,a poor player,And then is heard no more;it is tale  Told by idiot ,full of sound and fury,Signifying nothing.

Beyond fiscal cliff much economic problem await the country

Much about fiscal cliff but nation faces two headaches that lead recession:one, a Longshoreman strike closing all the Eastern ports,the second one is Mississippi River water level is dropping,hence,badges won't be able travel up and down river.Mississippi River is like highway so produces go and down for example products down river are Coal,Soybeans,Wheat and corn:up the river are products like fertilizer,Rubber,Gasoline and Crude oil.Now water from Missouri River could be flow into Mississippi River that would solve problem,however, the Army Corp of Engineers doesn't want to do that because the Missouri River is used for drinking water.

I fear right-wing talk radio will kill the conservative movement:these selfish bastards like Limbaugh Hannity and Levin care only about ratings not help Republicans win election. Look in a radio market,if get 5 percent people listening to you you will make nice living,however, 5 percent ain't going win you any election.But appeal crazy and saying stupid things rating goes but election wins for Right goes down.And selfish bastards attack Republicans somethings more Democrats hence people for no reason except ratings.It's myth that establishment Republicans are liberal or moderate no they are very conservative but this doesn't satisfy the crazies. Speaker Boehner give them escape hatch but caucus was stupid it shot down just raising tax rates millionaires and shown the public what phonies Democrats are but stupid egg by these talk believe strategy that work is charge Light Brigade
that lead death of many brave soldiers for nothing,wrong sometimes the best strategy is avoiding conflict George Washington win our revolution because understood you don't opponent unless you can win.

The day after Christmas,a Northeaster is here started to snow around 3 P.M.The Snow is beautiful to watch fall and looking out window now dark it's like postcard.
For some reason,I think because I'm getting and life has wasted largely because school and mother.One horrible I had as teacher was Mrs. Klein,she hated me,mother said she hated Jews and boy but remember now it must been when John Glenn went up space 1962.She asked why would go to space? A girl name Helen,very timidly said for Defence and Klein rip into her how stupid going sent one in space and that make safe and she reality ridicule the girl very cruel manner and of course Helen was girl and don't think she Jewish,as remember she big girl with light somehow I think she was Germany but not Jewish.
Of course,I remember Klein ridicule me in cruel manner,we shown a film about a satellite that make possible speed up communication and wrote paper on film,of course,I dyslexia so I misspelled world and wrote would and Klein read my paper,to humiliate front class,and said Gary Schwartz wrote people from one side of would can speak other people and said or tried to say I meant world but went deaf ears and Klein didn't she hated me. 
It was 4-3 out 4 classes in fourth grade she put in class 5-5 of five the dumbest of classes and kids dumb and so unaware of the world.I remember when Kennedy was assassinated in sad November day the teacher,unlike Klein a good teacher) left room mention the President was shoot,the kids left alone I knew this was serious stuff bad for nation but kid thought it was joke I remember an Hispanic kid name wearing big glasses saying President was playing Cowboys Indians some stupid was he this is what had deal with a child.

Edgar Nelson Rhodes

It's deep and cold December night,as song goes,but to liberty this afternoon and look up Edgar Nelson Rhodes.Many years ago mother brought a picture of Edgar Nelson Rhodes,on back picture is note dated 2/10/1973 stating this picture is hanging in House of Commons(Canada) it goes on say Dad was speaker 1917-1921 and house of Parliament was rebuilt after fire and was Deputy Speaker at time(night) of fire.I can make signature to me it look like ludlnles(doesn't make sense) above the note is a sticker saying Frank Jarman Reg'd then address 1622 Carling  Ottawa Ont and above in writing ink 11469-A circle about in ink.
Around 2002 or 03 I try looked up Edgar Nelson Rhodes find nothing told mother and she was disappoint which hate doing.Break her heart I didn't want a car.She could be very nasty but a very soft spots at times even though she mean and vindictive to point being crazy,sometime I felt she needed enemy somebody to hate,but there was a sweetness about at times.Anyway I find on Wikipedia stuff about Edgar Nelson Rhodes(mom's now dead) who,indeed, was speaker of Canadian House of Commons from 1917-21 also member of Cabinet quite politics to become President of British-Nickel Company which went bust in 1925 went back to politics and become Premier of Nova Scotia.

The last or next to last Broadway show I saw with mother.

A rain y day,cold night still raining.Was watching T.V and movie was Light in the Piazza.It reminded me,I saw the play with at Vivian Beaumont Theatre at Lincoln Center in the fall 2005.Afterward or before we had something to eat at Barnes Noble across the way mother mention she hadn't well and of course a few month later it was apparent she was dying.I like the play it wasn't great but entertaining.
Mother realize on trip I wasn't fool but when she was near death about 2 and half to three years later she turn inward to nature self becoming nasty to me,maybe she angry I wasn't there but the family Mini and Al make me feel unwelcome.Al didn't want me there at all Mini is not bright and self-center she was like mother except worst you couldn't deal with her.
Anyway listening on radio to English composers of Tudor era,Christmas music from Thomas Tallis,William Byrd so beautiful real soul music.
Yesterday the horror of Conn. the killing innocent children dominates one's thoughts,but life does on why such evil in world is beyond me.I guess some people are tricking time bombs ready go off but why?

The killing goes on and  on,madness simply madness in Conn.Were is God? Does he exist? How can he let this happen.18 children die,kill by mad man for what end? I'm tried all this insanity evil rears it's ugly and we all helpless.Soon my days will next march I will be sixty maybe ten more ten good years left.America is not same place as when I was boy it's becoming to look like third world country.No longer Protestant no WASP has lost his dominion we aren't country decency anymore the cool is gone peaceful of American doesn't exist anymore.American was great country the land free and home of brave but no more the Left,the tool of old Soviet Union,over time entry dominate our politics and was death Nell for America.

The hot girl and stupid media plus Rush Hannity and friend hurt the Rightt

After some warm weather,back to Dec, weather the cold coming when getting mail saw girl hot girl with dye blond hair flaming red lipstick,a little woman maybe 5 ft very sexy.Open the outside door for her to let her in at mailbox she stated it was getting cold outside.
Listened to Shaw Hannity ,on radio like Limbaugh full of crap hurting the conservative movement Republican Party.There don't look at elections it's same line with those guys they lead the conservative nowhere.Sometimes I think there are more interested lining there pockets then getting conservative elected.These radio talk shows host from some exception ,like Michael Medved,are cancer to Right.You I wrote to the apple(radio of Salem communications in New York market) pointed the promo stated this was most contention presidential election in America was insult to there audience.I mean,I think election 1860 was bit more contention;after all,it lead to Civil War.Why are people media both Left and Right so stupid and poorly inform.One thing I know schools don't reward knowledge they reward of way thinking not what you know.

Dark Side of the Moon and old friends from Shepherd Collage

Was listening to radio heard Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd.It reminded me of Shepherd Collage back in 1976 or 1977 when they planning get away sort Dark side of the moon adventure a lost weekend in sense.In student government Dave with sun glass was pushing the idea I was skeptical.I like Pink Floyd song about Education," teacher we don't need your education" I think it was the wall.
Shepherd College because of Internet two of my friend of have contracted: Ron Miller,who now is State Senator in West Virginia,he also Baptist minster(when he was in collage he said he wanted to be a minster and go seminary and he did-amazing for my experience few accomplish they dream,there ambitions when youth Miller did hats off to him)he also farmer,now when I knew his father owned John Deer dealership,indeed,after leaving Shepherd Miller work for father while,indeed,I will never it was 1978 spring Miller come from Greenbrier County he was a business suit,very unlike the Miller I knew) he ask if had eaten I hadn't Miller brought me lunch at Betty's,a restaurant it hamburger,Miller also has small business he set up places in county fairs and like and serves Italian,Italian food Miller I mean they ain't more WASP then.
My other friend was Richard Donovan,who while was chief financial office for West Virgina Office of Higher Education.They now have taken that position away Donovan my guess I mistake.Richard and Nick Taylor are so bright and yet there position in life can't match there ability,talent and brains.There are so many dummies in high position it just makes you wonder.

My father(may rest in peace) was station at Pearl Harbor in 12/7/1941 fortunately for me anyway(for I was born on 3/17/1953) he was liberty at that time,he actually was at the Polo Grounds watching a football the New York Giants I don't know who they were playing.Dad would serve in Pacific theater  I think he was discharged in 1946 maybe 1945 I don't know i wasn't there.I never had much of relation with him anyway.My up bring was a mess I don't want to go into now but my life was decided and destroy by my family.

Ed Asher and foolly use as spokeman against bigtry in Houston many years ago

Spring has turned back to winter,it's cold in the apartment.Outside I think it's about forty maybe high thirty degrees,but mades feel much colder.It's around 5:36 P.M dark cold night one hears wind howling,little heat in apartment.
Listen to Michael Medved(not spell right I think) radio show play that stupid and kind sick ad from teachers union in California and Ed Asher did narration.Asher is sick man,he hates American even though his done so well here something wrong with him.
I remember living in Houston from 11/80 to 5/1983.And Ed Asher did P.S.A from Jewish origination
I think it was B'nai B'rith(which my mother got awarding hanging now in my bedroom I had look it up to  spell it don't organization like B'nai B'rith you lose you identity as person,your not individual but member group it's like mob beside I wasn't a little Jew genius,I did very badly in school never had good job and looked around and many Jews who did well in school and had good position in life many not all I thought weren't much,they weren't very bright or gifted so don't like them)anyway call called the local B'nai B'rith office in Houston to complain about using Ed Asher in Ad.How stupid Houston,at that time and think still is a very politically conservative town and use a Communist to promote your goals.I spoke to nice lady and told how unwise it was to use Ed Asher and went told you use somebody Bob Hope non-Jewish,non-political a person that avg America loved.But I got feeling to went through one ear and out the other.These people didn't get it!
