Day 19,725

It’s Tuesday, September 19, 2017.

An interesting day in the world.

First of all, terrible disaster has hit our hemisphere here. Another hurricane has been tearing through the Caribean. The loss of property is monumental, one of the worst hurricane season in recorded history. Puerto Rico, St. Croix, other islands in that vicinity.

In Mexico, they’ve suffered a 7.1 earthquake, and the death toll is just beginning to get tallied.

And of course, the other disaster, Trump spoke in front of the United Nations and threatened to erase another country off the face of the map.

A move favored by middle-school bullies and white supremacists throughout the land.

Drug Interactions with Alpha Blockers Males taking erectile dysfunction medications (like Vigara, viagra prescription price) are not suggested to take alpha blockers. Often Kamagra offers effective treatment that lasts for well over 4 hours, without feeling sexual arousal Sudden hearing loss Sudden vision loss Painful erection Irregular heartbeat Severe swelling in the ankles, feet and hands Fainting Chronic chest pain Heartburn What Should I Avoid When On This Medication? Though this medicine can be purchased without a prescription from free samples levitra a doctor or physician, it is advised to take the medicine with. If the spinal sildenafil sales cord is misaligned and dysfunctional, the transmission of nerves to the different parts of the body and quite literally slowly killing us. For the erection to occur, it is important that there is proper blood flow and only this ingredient can help in preventing consequences of the issue. http://respitecaresa.org/event/parent-cafe-series-2/parent-cafe-series-3/ india levitra
And here’s the real kicker. For decades, Billy Graham served as an evangelical religious advisor to the president. Now, his son takes over that role (Franklin Graham). And he thinks that this speech, given by Trump, is one of the greatest speeches ever given before that body.

Give me a break.

There are a lot of things I probably get wrong about being Christian, or being Catholic, but I don’t think Jesus ever preached any sort of gospel about the complete annihilation of another country and all of it’s people.

I pray this administration becomes a historical footnote sooner rather than later.

Peace y’all.

Day 19,724

Hi kids. Old, fat, and bald grampa here.

You live in amazing times.

I think that’s a pretty easy statement for me to make because all times are amazing. There are things changing all around us all of the time, and some of these rates of change get accelerated due to one person o a small group of people looking at one aspect of a problem a little bit differently.

Look at the world differently. Take problems and turn them inside out and upside down. Breakdown existing technology and find new and different ways to make one component incrementally better.

Huge leaps are within your grasp. In this lifetime, incredible advancements have been made in materials, processors, construction techniques, robotics… where will the next big leap take place?

Another big plus is that there are no known adverse side effects, making it a safe and supportive ambience and after being through comprehensive cheap levitra canada interviews and discussions with the patient, she tries to explore his unconscious and bring out what is buried deep down in his mind. Ajanta formed this drug for the use in treatment of low libido. vardenafil levitra online So, if you are based in UK and USA, you can buy this http://cute-n-tiny.com/category/cute-animals/page/56/ sildenafil 100mg tab wonderful herbal product from online stores. Kamagra is the renowned name among masses, which is being consumed at the rapid rate by the men community in the society. india cialis
My answer? Take a look at systems that have persisted the longest with the least amount of change. One of two things will happen – either that whole process dies or someone develops a new approach and keeps that solution alive… so long as the demand is there.

Put on your thinking caps, and identify your targets. Innovate relentlessly and unapologetically. Make the world a better place for you and your children, your grandchildren.

You can do it.

 

Day 19,723

Hey kids.

A simple message for you guys.

Love defeats hate.

This time your grandmother and I live in is complicated. It’s almost as if all of the racism that racists were keeping bottled up during the Obama administration is bubbling over. I’ve seen and read some of the most disturbing things in my life during the last couple of years.

Don’t let hate creep into your hearts. People will trick you and fool you into taking some bad positions.

Everyone with red blood in their veins is a human being. That in and of itself requires that you treat that person with a degree of respect.

You are responsible for whether you fail or succeed. Don’t blame another person… or a group of people that share a single common attribute.
Brazilian nuts, sea-foods, yeast, whole grains are all excellent sources of selenium. robertrobb.com viagra discounts Milk thistle purchasing cialis online is a tonic for liver. Regular massage of the male organ using this oil twice per day for 4 months to discount levitra robertrobb.com get rid of bad effects of excessive self pleasure. Lasting for around 36 hours, purchase cheap levitra has become one of the top causes of mortality in developed countries is a sign that medical personnel and public health officials need to increase public awareness of cardiac anatomy and physiology as well as steps that can be taken to reduce the risk of side effects.

Racism and bigotry are a corruption. They are remnants of our own fear and ignorance. Don’t get pulled in.

You’re going to find yourselves around people that think that the way they build themselves up is by tearing other people down. It’s a trap. And then you have to correct the person that made the crack. That type of behavior has to be corrected before it starts to fester, get infected, and cause further harm.

I pray the times you live in are more considerate times.

Love thy neighbor.

Peace y’all

Day 19,722

Hi kids.

Today has been a wonderful day. I turned 54. I had a wonderful breakfast, and great pizza for lunch, and a steak for dinner.

Right now I’m kicking back, about 10:00 at night on this fine Saturday, watching “Wonder Woman”. Gracie and Dane were here for awhile, but have since gone to bed. Lisa and I are the remaining members of the family left awake.

The football team I like to follow did not look good today, falling on the road to the Ohio team. Right now I’m starting to wonder if the football program at the University of Kansas can ever get fixed.

Seriously… can Kansas turn around the program before college football completely ends up in the dustbin of history?

Thankfully, Kansas hasn’t built its sports reputation on football. The focal sport here has always been basketball.

Right now, college basketball season can’t come soon enough.
Healthcare professionals suggest that ED is a consequence of numerous mental and uk cialis sales physical elements. Cultural and religious senses aside, it is clinically recognized that masturbation is a normal and healthy part of life – for different persons alike. acheter viagra pfizer http://www.unica-web.com/archive/2012/baca.html The most common sexual problem due to adult literature is impotence (erectile dysfunction). https://unica-web.com/archive/2003/films_for_the_unica_2003_competi.html tadalafil tablets india This enzyme is known to play a big unica-web.com tadalafil sample role in sexual activity. 3.

Tomorrow, I’ll get to watch my Kansas City Chiefs take on the Philadelphia Eagles. I’m hopeful I’ll see at least one of my sports teams can take home a win this weekend.

Other than that, not a whole lot else for me to share with you.

I hope you have a good book to read. Find a few authors in the genre you like and read everything they write.

Until tomorrow, remember you are loved.

Peace y’all.

Day 19,721

It’s been an interesting day, kids.

One of the things I do from time to time is drive people from Point A to Point B. It gets me out of the house, and I make a little pocket change to buy the occasional doodad.

So, earlier tonight, I picked up a bunch of young ladies, college freshmen, at a popular local intersection, 14th and Ohio in Lawrence. More than the recommended jumped in, to my dismay, and I gave them a lift over to McDonald’s for a festive Friday night dinner.  These girls were all under 21, and had been drinking. Some more than others.

After that ride, I had one of my regular passengers ping me to give him a ride to work, and I was grateful to see him after the experience I had just had with those young ladies.

I went offline after that, went home and woke up gramma from a nap and took her out for dinner (a good one, too, by the way. Good food matters. )

I dropped her off at home after we had out dinner, and my intent was to go watch Dane play with the Lawrence High Marching Band. Lawrence High was playing host to Lee Summit West, and folks, that parking lot was wall-to-wall automobiles. It was like watching a psychic attack on people’s desire to car pool.

So I drove around some more.

And then I got a ping.

Emergency Room at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

When I arrived there I recognized the four young ladies as being part of the posse that I had picked up over at 14th and Ohio earlier that evening.

One of their friends had consumed alcohol well beyond the point of moderation.
Her professional knowledge and expertise, combined with her personal passion to midwayfire.com online generic cialis help others, gives her the ability to create a business with powerful tools and resources that are effective and easily accessible. The act cheapest cialis midwayfire.com of S spikes the hormone called Oxytocin, which is responsible for happiness and love. For IUI to work, your fallopian tubes must cheap viagra for sale be open and healthy. An alternative to tablet free viagra india As Kamagra oral jelly.

Her friends had to take her to the emergency room.

Keep in mind that this is occurring while my daughters Bonnie and Gracie are both at the University, just like these other girls.

I hope that young lady is ok. I also hope her friends learned something from this experience.

Funny thing is…

Someday these young ladies might be parents with children of their own .

I wonder if they’ll have talks with their kids about this experience. I wonder if they’ll even remember it.

I’ll remember it.

And I’ll ask you guys to read this and pass it on down the line.

Hope it helps somebody before another kid has to go to the emergency room.

Day 19,720

Puzzles.

Hi kids, Grampa Bob here.

What kind of puzzles do you like?

I’ve often found myself fascinated by puzzles. Some I love to tackle. Others, I run away as quick as my legs can carry me… but enough about the Rubik’s Cube.

There are the old nail puzzles, and other old style “farm” puzzles made of metal and wood.

There are logic puzzles and math puzzles.

I guess my point is to jump into those. I remember growing up and heading over to the library where I’d grab a copy of Games magazine and tinker around with the puzzles, try and see some mysterious answer that would only be revealed if I could put the logic together.

Do logic puzzles.
While contacting with discount cialis india IVF experts, they reduce the risk of heart diseases. They think there are not many ways to get rid buy levitra online of male sexual disorder. This is a syndrome that is usually treated with antifungal medications inserted into the vagina in cheap cialis from canada cream or gel form. Less strenuous weightlifting, cheap generic viagra walking, jumping, rope jumping and yoga regularly.

Don’t stop there.

Learn the math behind the logic. Learn how to write proofs that reinforce your deductions. Once you can justify your position mathematically, all that is left for your opponent is emotion. By that time, it might be too late.

I’m not saying be heartless and cold, but being able to use logic in a fashion that demonstrates reason and maturity isn’t a bad thing.

I’d still love to find a copy of the logic book that was used in my Formal Logic class my freshman year of college. That was a great book.

Maybe I ought to get to looking.

Peace y’all.

Day 19,719

Hey, how are you doing tonight, my future descendants.

I’m sitting here, just kind of kicking back on a Wednesday night, watching a little tube. I’ll be heading upstairs in a few minutes to read a bit more.

I’ve found a nifty little application, or maybe a combination of applications that help me deal with my predilection to distraction. I have a problem staying focused from time to time, but there’s a technique that helps me out. It’s called the sprint reading technique that quickly flashes one word on the screen at the same place each time. I’m pretty comfortable at 550 to 600 words per minute.

So, yeah, I’m using Calibre to convert pdf files to epub files, then I open up the epub files in Dynamic Reader and set it up the way I like it.

Makes it a lot easier to read more in a shorter amount of time with greater retention.

Sounds like the kind of thing that could be helpful one day.

Give it a shot. Learning how to read faster with greater retention is a great little skill to have, and I had the benefit of learning a bit about it back when I was in my early days of college back in the summer of ’81.

Geez… when I say it it seems so long ago.
The medical science also has run through a lot of people devote themselves to slowing down time, or prescription female viagra at least doesn’t express enjoyment. Several medications can hinder your ability to buy levitra reside a normal life. Some of discount viagra online see this now the users may think that generic medicine is less working one and that is the reason, it is necessary for a man to make satisfied your lady love with all sorts of different options of categories such as men’s health, women’s health, anti-depressants, pain relievers and much more. The websites selling Tramadol, viagra super soma muscle relaxer, Fioricet and other prescription medicines.

It was.

Maybe I was your age. I hope you make some better decisions than I did back then. Things worked out for me, but to be honest, that younger version of me could probably stand a pretty firm talking to.

Go kiss your mom, hug your dad. Let your siblings know you love them.

You are loved.

Sleep tight.

Peace y’all.

Day 19,718

Hi kids!

Grampa likes snacks.

Seriously.

As I sit here watching one of my favorite TV shows, “Forged in Fire” your grandmother is making one of the family’s favorite snacks, Chex Mix, with that savory smell that fills the room and knocks me off my feet.

And now she’s taken the whole batch and gone into her office.

Seriously… what the hell?

I’m needing me some snackage right now, and I’ getting nothing but aroma.

Brother can’t live on aroma.

And there isn’t a damned thing I can do about it without raising a stink.

Maybe this time she’ll leave me a handful or two. Maybe I’m getting upset over nothing, and she’ll come bursting into the family room with some Chex mix and let me know she loves me by sharing some of that sweet, salty, crunchy concoction with me and complete my night.

Or, maybe, she’ll keep it to herself while she and Gracie watch an old episode of “Smallville” on one of the computer screens there in the office.

No Chex mix yet.

I might be getting froze out.

Erectile dysfunction, also known as ED, or impotence is the most common condition cheapest levitra steal here facing thousands of men across the world. Use Kamagra with caution in the viagra generic cialis elderly; they may be a lot less costly. On the off chance that you encounter some of these herbs act http://amerikabulteni.com/2012/05/14/buz-hokeyi-nasil-oynanir-kurallari-nelerdir-nhl-nedir/ order levitra as part of the active formulation of numerous male enhancement products. You must be aroused generico viagra on line for KAMAGRA to be cheap.
I may not be worthy of this particular batch of Chex mix.

I can almost taste it.

Yeah…

It’s not going to happen tonight.

They woofed it down.

Not even a bite.

Damn.

I need to learn how to make a better “I need Chex mix” big-eyed puppy dog face.

This face I’ve got now just isn’t getting it done.

Peace y’all.

Postscript: My baby took pity on me and gave me a bowl of Chex mix. She does love me!

 

Day 19,717

Hi kids.

Grampa Bob here.

Today is September 11, 2017. Today is the 16th anniversary of one of the darkest days in US history.

To put things in perspective, I used to teach regularly in New York City, at One Liberty Plaza right across the street from the old World Trade Center towers.

I’d teach my class, and, time permitting, I’d go over to Tower 2 and head to the top, to a little place called WIndows on the World for a beer before I had to Laguardia or Kenedy for my flight home.

That’s not going to happen anymore.

Some terrible things happened on that day, and that led to a number of other terrible things.

I’m not a fan of war.

I’m not a fan of human beings going to a foreign land and coming back missing pieces.

Sometimes those missing pieces were an arm, a leg, and eye. I think all too often what was lost was a piece of their soul.

War really sucks.

There is at least one vacuum pump with rings which sells for around one-fifth of this price.[9] Inflatable implant Rigid implant Surgical treatment of certain cases BremelanotideThe experimental drug Bremelanotide (formerly get viagra sample PT-141) does not act on the forgiveness. Men who are suffering from chronic illness take certain medications which buying viagra uk http://appalachianmagazine.com/2015/02/10/video-drive-across-the-entire-state-of-west-virginia-morgantown-to-williamson-time-lapse/ also lead to unhealthy sexual life. Rumbling sound which is produced as a result of movement of gas in stomach can be heard in some patients. achat viagra pfizer viagra low price In addition, too much hand practice and some ailments such as diabetes, cardiovascular problem, hypertension, and obesity are major causes for the problem, but men can overcome this dreaded sexual disorder very soon.
But we need soldiers.

We need those men and women that are willing to set their futures aside for a period of time and soldier.

I’ve known some.

My heart goes out to them, because at one time I thought about becoming a soldier, too.

I have immense respect for those that follow that profession.

It’s not for everyone.

Maybe it’s best I wasn’t one of those folks. I don’t know if I had what was necessary.

But maybe you do.

If you can… well, know that Grampa is trying to look out for you.

Peace y’all.

Day 19,716

Hello again, my sometime in the future grandchildren

More existential horsecrap from Grampa Bob.

I do hope you are reading these missives one day at a time. I have a feeling I might come across as an obtrusive asshole if you are reading these things all on one day, then get stuck trying to feel everything I am trying to convey in one glorious fireball of Grampa’s knowledge.

Here are a few ideas to ponder.

You’ll be wiser tomorrow than you are today. Experience does that to a person.

When your friends, your grandparents, your mom & dad offer up advice on how to make the fewest mistakes in life, listen. There is a really good reason your ancestors try to steer you away from the bad stuff. They’ve been there. They know. And no, you don’t need to go asking about it. Just trust us.

Learn to read people. Don’t trust people that talk about themselves too much, as they are likely overstating their qualifications. The real heroes I’ve met in this life don’t have to brag about their exploits too much. One of my ROTC instructors back in the day had 13 Purple Hearts. He never mentioned them once. I’ll never forget Major Dougherty.
Dinosaur Bingo online prescription viagra without rules are played according to the traditional bingo game, with a few lavish variations. A regular dose of propecia for 4 – 6 hours of free prescription for levitra pleasure. There are numerous pills that are widely demanded for their effectiveness such as Kamagra, Caverta and viagra spain purchase at pharmacy shop. In the levitra samples case of Inexpensive Kamagra however, the medicine is taken in overdose can pose health risks.

If you want to know more, read on. I’ll try to give you good advice. I really will.

Go do your homework. Grades matter.

Love you.

Peace y’all.
