GM - Let them take the bankruptcy....

"DETROIT — General Motors told the federal government Tuesday that it needed to increase its loan request to $30 billion, $12 billion more than it had initially sought, to avoid a bankruptcy filing."

I know for the fact that GM has to do the bankruptcy, to have O sign off on a bailout would be absurd.

They made a mess of it, and they have to live with it.

It was COLD>>>

Blood Test

My Blood Test came in.

Cholesterol 162 (200 is the desirable)

LDL Cholesterol 97 ( 100 is Optimal)

Blood Pressure 120/68 (Diovan...it is what Joan used for her blood pressure towards the end)

Toot Sweet!

Now I have to get my weight down to the 210 stage, I am 255 now, which has something to do with the slow down via the Prozac, which I should be off come January.

End the end, I will have been on the Strokism 23 months, come January.....I think that would be enough.....what can you do.......just laugh and be on with it......

My Aphasia is getting better, that is, I am having less trouble with it, this is good news.

I still can not read a book. Which I did prior to the Prozac. I get about 20 odd pages into it and just give up. Hopefully I will get into the books again without the Prozac.

It Feels Great!

So be it. It is really something that I feel this good, it is unbelievable. Halla-Dog! Of course it could all go away buy I have a feeling we shall keep the goodness, goodly, good-able, good gracious. It is remarkable to me how just a month ago I felt pretty good, was still in my strokism, today the stroke is mile behind me, and it feels great.

Oh yhea, I am an Atheists....

AMERICAN ATHEISTS has been the premier organization laboring for the civil liberties of Atheists, and the total, absolute separation of government and religion. It was born out of a court case begun in 1959 by the Murray family which challenged prayer recitation in the public schools. That case – Murray v. Curlett – was a landmark in American jurisprudence on behalf of our First Amendment rights. It began:


"Your petitioners are Atheists, and they define their lifestyle as follows. An Atheist loves himself and his fellow man instead of a god. An Atheist accepts that heaven is something for which we should work now – here on earth – for all men together to enjoy. An Atheist accepts that he can get no help through prayer, but that he must find in himself the inner conviction and strength to meet life, to grapple with it, to subdue it and to enjoy it. An Atheist accepts that only in a knowledge of himself and a knowledge of his fellow man can he find the understanding that will help lead to a life of fulfillment."

"He must find in himself the inner conviction and strength to meet life..."

Yes this is it. I totally have a feeling for those who have found god. It is real for them and they need it. To me, ever thing I have ever known is within my skin. I don't really know how else to put it. We are born alone, we die alone.

O won wow O

O won. It is if a weight has been lifted off of me. It is funny how O brings the party together. Which is insane. The "party together", which I guess is something. We shall see over 4 years or 8 years what O will bring us. It is enough we only have Bush in office for another 2 months. What can he bring in those 2 months, we have no way of knowing. The first 100 days of O will be something to see. It is odd for me to get the stroke behind me, while taking it with me....very odd indeed.
