Has Anything Changed?
Hey Man! With unemployment running out in just a few months it's not the best of times right now. Of course I have been looking everyday for some type of job but at 60 when you have to change careers it's not that easy to find something you may not have experience in. Then on top of it you are up against alot of 20 year olds that are out of jobs too. If I can last till early retirement then these low paying jobs will not be that bad since I would be getting retirement also. I am thankful I have all my hair and as an Italian with olive oil running through our veins it keeps us from wrinkleing up so we look a little younger. So on a good day I can still pass for being in my 40's. Directions have now changed so we have to change with it all. Let's see if we can do this. Let's all put a 100 per cent in this changing system, please...

Oh No !
Hey Man!
Now what! I injured myself at work as explained previously so I got disability which was only two thirds of my salary. I was in debt so I went with a company to pay my bills. So being out of work I had them take six hundred dollars each month to pay my bills off. After about eight months of that and almost six thousand dollars the company went out of business and now I have to hope I get maybe half of what I put in back. So now my creditors are at my door just about so I had to go to bankrupcy. Meanwhile I am trying to get my workman's comp case settled. So now they said they will leave my bankrupcy case open since I have a possible settlement on my workman's comp case. But I am left not being able to work on my foot like I used to. So now what does a man do when he tried to do everything right. I need my workman's comp in order to get by for a few months and at 60 years old it's not easy to go find some other type of work. Especially in the economy we have right now. Life can be so scary at times!

Cell Phone Tower?
Hey Man!
There is a group of people that are protesting the construction of a cell phone tower and it's on city owned property. There is a question of how safe it would be living near these cell phone towers. People are saying it's safe but not long ago people also said smoking was safe. So now the residents of Berkley Lakes are completely against the cell Phone tower near their community. Their is a strong feeling that these towers are a cause of cancer when living too close to them. Now don't get me wrong no one wants to give up keeping a cell phone. They could not live without it. But they just want the tower built somewhere else like in some one else's neighborhood. So now the mayor has put together a meeting since there are alot of pros and cons about the cell phone tower. Would you want to live under this cell phone tower?

It could be Pandemic!
Hey Man!
It's the new, brand new swine flu and it has killed as many as 68 people. Yes that's right people. You don't have to be a swine. That may sound silly but I was asked that question before. At least 1000 more people have become sick because of the flu, the swine flu that is. The disease has gone from Mexico and it has reached Texas and California already. They said that the outbreak of the never before seen virus is a very serious situation and has "pandemic potential". But thankfully it is too early to tell if it would become a worldwide outbreak. But on the bad side the situation is evolving quickly. This virus is a mix of human, pig, and bird strains and that is why this is considered a health emergency. The bad thing about all this is that it is so very hard to contain. The CDC and some experts said it is almost impossible to contain this flu. They are screening passengers from Mexico but that doesn't seem to help at this time. One big reason to really worry is that the flu doesn't seem to be killing only the vulnerable infants and the elderly. The Spanish flu which killed at least 40 million people worldwide in 1918-19, also first struck healthy young adults just as this Swine flu is doing. Remember this unlike regular flu, humans don't have natural immunity to a virus that includes animal genes. And how about this, new vaccines can take months to bring into use. So until then we could be defenseless against such a flu. It may sound a little funny but even the Mariachi Musicians are covering their faces with cloths or masks while they wait for business in the Garibaldi Plaza in Mexico City. How would that make you feel if you were looking to get some of the band to play at your party and they were covering their faces from something like the swine flu. Wow!

Turkey Neck!
Hey Man!
As I was on my travels the other day I really thought I passed right by a turkey. I didn't hear the goble goble but it sure did look exactly like a turkey. No one tried to shoot it or anything but you would have sworn that this was a real live turkey. The only thing is that we were at the grocery store and really that's not the place that has turkey's running around. Now if we were in some open fields or out in the country we would have accepted this sighting of a real live turkey. As I took a better look at this would be turkey I realized to my disbelief that it was a woman with a turkey neck. That neck skin was hanging so bad that this became a human turkey. The sight was very displeasing, very. I found out that as skin matures there are some key nutrients that become depleted and this results in a dull, thinning and sagging skin. I needed to look into this since I did not want to turn into a turkey. I have been called a bear before since I was big and maybe a little hairy but not no turkey. So I found out that this can be reversed with something called Expela, a neck firming activator. This has calcium and amino acids, and it is designed to reboost cell metabolism and protein synthesis and rebalance the ion flow. In other words it starts working on the loose skin to stop turning you into a turkey. So you will get a firmer, smoother neckline and jawline, restructuring the skin to eliminate sag and the deep lines from view. Your skin will get visibly firmer, tighter, and smoother in a matter of weeks. Wow! You can take Expela in your own home and it's affordable, scarless, no burning, no doctors, and no recovery time. So now take that good look in the mirror and if you don't hear that goble goble than you may be alright. But if you even think about thanksgiving when you take that look than Expela would be something to try. The results are pretty amazing so check your pharmacy for this new and special medicine that will have you saying, "no more turkey neck for me".

What Now!
Hey Man!
Now I am at that spot of starting some type of new career and when the economy is at it;s worst in many many years. At 61 years old it is a real challenge. Where do you go from here. I am on unemployment trying to get some job, any job where I won't have to be on my legs all day like the hotel business. Like I said before in the hotel business you are sitting about 10% of the time and that good ole 90% you are walking around on your legs. I have now got these special socks that go to your knees and they really give you lots of support when walking. So this invention really helps someone in my condition for sure. I am now hoping that the workmans comp can at least take me to my retirement because then I could get some beginning job with a low pay and with my retirement it will all even out. We will soon see the outcome of this terrible mishap.
