In Loving Memory...

Beloved Grandfather...

They say there are no tears in Heaven,But that must be wrong. Because you took part of my broken heart, When you went away. I know my tears must have followed you, How else can it be? My Spirit feels broken,‘Cause you are no longer here with me. I cried to the Heavens, my tears fell like rain. So, I know my tears must be in Heaven,Things will never be the same.They say someday I will accept your passing, But, right now that can’t be true,Because part of me is in Heaven, My tears..... followed you....If tears could build a stairway,And memories were a lane. I would walk right up to heaven,To bring you home again.No farewell words were spoken,No time to say good-bye.You were gone before I knew it,And only God knows why. My heart still aches in sadness,And secret tears still flow. What it meant to lose you,No one will ever know. A million times I've thought of you A million times I've cryed If loving could have saved you You would have never died. Please always know I love you and no one can take your place; Years may come and go but your memory will never be erased.

In Loving Memory Of Joseph Ippolito

Crossing Over

I purchased tickets today for me and Steven to see John Edwards at the Hiton on September 18th. I am so excited I hope he picks one of us to speak with....

No Soup For You!

The Soup Nazi is here! Yes, the original Soup Nazi from the classic Seinfeld episode has opened up one of his soup franchisees here on Staten Island. And just like from that episode he has rules for buying his soup: The line must be kept moving, pick your soup, have your money ready and move to the extreme left after ordering.

Just say 'NOprah'

Oprah is a total hypocrite. One show is about poverty, and how everyone is going into debt, or we're all getting fatter, then the next show its the latest fashion, what to wear to make you look skinny and popular, and of course the $50 dollar brownies to buy, and all your favorite goodies that can be flown, yes by airplane, to your doorstep. Unbelievable. She abuses to the max, her power and influence, to brainwash her viewers into buying expensive materialistic items that she promotes on her show for her own profit, and then preaching the next day on a new show topic about poverty, and how mentally unhealthy it is to get into debt because women are buying these expensive hyped clothes or some other useless product. Just because Oprah's show is popular, she thinks she is always right. Oprah does not have any degree(s) of education in psychology. She imposes her poor advice always on people, and what's unfortunate is most people that watch her show believe it because, well it's Oprah, and she is rich and famous, so she must be right. How pathetic.

What Were You Thinking?

I have been watching not only what the other people in my office are wearing, but people in the building in general, and all the other little working trolls who live on this Island, many of these people do not follow "appropriate office wear" or even "appropriate out of office wear".My interest in all things fashionable have resulted in some highly disturbing observations: aside from the usual unattractive hip and belly lumps that are plainly visible due to ill-fitting clothing, panty lines are a major problem. The floppy pancake-like appearance of the buttocks is accentuated by panty lines cutting in at odd angles. However, my absolute favorite is the appearance of cellulite through pants. Ladies, just because you are wearing pants does not mean your ripples cannot be seen! Do these people ever look at themselves from behind in the dressing room? You may think you are young and can wear tight longpants, but cellulite afflicts the young and in-shape. There are lots of thin people with monstrous amounts of cellulite, and lots of bigger women with minimal cellulite, and it seems like neither type knows how to pick out body-appropriate clothing, never mind office appropriate clothing. How about thong lines AND when they hang out the back of the pants,this one being one of my favorite types of apparel grotesquery - well, I honestly don't get it. Do people never take advantage of the 3 way mirror? Or are these women so body confident they don't care? Am I the only one who does gymnastics when trying on clothing, constantly checking the view from all angles to see if my ass and thighs are sufficiently camouflaged?

Quality Value & Convenience

I will hold my hands high in the air and confess to you all…..I Love QVC! Yes I watch it as much as I can and when I dont have a TV available I watch it on my computer. Its like white noise to me hearing the hosts in the background selling something. It even puts me to sleep at night. I buy products from them all the time and I continue to do it over and over again. Everything has worked as stated and were very good buys. Only thing is I have no use for some of them....... -YET-. And each night I wait, hushed, with baited breath as the countdown to Midnight begins…waiting for that day’s new ‘TSV’ – Today’s Special Value!!! I am obsessed - I admit it. I know all of the hosts by first name and I even know about there lives off air. I even get a Birthday & Christmas card from them.

All I can say is - QVC - Long may you rein!!!
