Just Chillin In Playland

McDonald's is my combo, breakfast, office away from home . . . I always love their quirky little sayings, that brighten my day, make me think, and often inspire me to write about something that I hadn't thought of, or bolstered what I was already intending to write about, so thanks, I'm lovin' it!  Kind of power packed time, since arriving back in Kalispell, at roughly 10:10 a.m., yesterday morning, via the Golden Triangle Transit, talk about every fiber of my soul being filled yesterday with the absolute beauty of Montana!  The love of my life, other than my kids, is Montana!  Geez almighty, the shuttle left at 7:00 a.m. from the Glacier Motel & RV Park, in Shelby.  As the morning sun, peaked under the clouds, on the horizon, with amber, gold, pink, orange and red glow, under purple, gray and white clouds, I couldn't help but turn, and look, often to see the visions of grandeur, unfolding behind me.  The poor guy from New York, sitting behind me, that I had seen several times on the shuttle, but never talked to, would freeze each time I would look to the rear, with him, thinking I was looking at him for doing something wrong.  LOL!  Finally, he glanced back at the amazing sunrise, sneaking out from under the heavy clouds.

In front of me, in all shades of gray, isn't that the name of a sexy book, but, all the levels, dimensions, heights, and variations of mountains, on the back side of Glacier National Park, loomed over the landscape on the front of the shuttle.  We picked up a male and female Indian pair in Browning, who I had not only met, but talked to several times in Kalispell, and the thought came to mind, that Heavyweight World Champion, Jack Dempsey's, manager, Jack Kearns, said that the most beautiful women in the world were in Paris, France, until he came to Shelby, and then after seeing the gorgeous, Indian girls, he would have to reconsider, if Paris women, were still his favorite . . . this chick, must be one of the grand-daughters of the women he was talking about!  But I wasn't in the mood to talk, John is rubbing off on this talkative gal, but I did get a kick out of listening to the dude from New York, and the Indian Princess, talking about the mountains, his questions about bears, his fears, and the fact that he walked with a cane, and was somewhat handicapped, due to some issues with his legs, and he would not be able to out run a bear!  She was just laughing and playing him for all he was worth, colorful people all over Montana, and the people who are drawn to visit, or stay in my case . . . there is a sign in some store up here, and it reads, characters wanted, only in a place settled by vigilante justice, cattle rustlers, moonshine runners, mining towns, with the toughest characters, Dempsey was raised in a mining town, I think in Colorado, so you know the type, but over all outlaw stock!  I'm lovin' it!

Blogging at the Sunnyview Cafe, Hospital, Friends

After eating a great waffle, thick bacon, cheesy home fried and cut potatoes, blogging, and talking to a friend, who was remembered she had a gold mine, under the property her house is on, and stated that we better start preserving history, like the Dempsey fight or the gold mine, because if we don't, any generation that had any connection to that story, the folklore, or the history would soon be gone.  I made the mistake of asking, who I thought was an older guys, bent over and walking slowly down the street, if he was alive when the Dempsey fight happened . . . he looked shocked and offended, and said that he was only born in 1949, just 5 years before me, so hell no, he was not around . . . whooops!  But he looked sooo old, I avoid looking at my own face, maybe I am missing something, and just think I look young.  But, I do know, that men and women who have physical jobs, tend to get bent up a bit earlier, beat the hell out of their bodies, or break every bone, at a much greater pace, that pencil pushers like me.  I overheard two guys, one who had been run over by a train, and the other one, I am not sure what happened, I didn't tune in, or eavesdrop soon enough to hear the reason, but they both, joked as if no big deal, one saying going to the eye doc, was more painful on a scale of 1 to 10, than being run over by a train, but they both laughed and said, everyone needs to experience death, 4 or 5 times, like they had, to appreciate life!  Home spun wisdom . . .

After hitting the bus, checking out my imaginary boyfriend, who is actually living with his girlfriend, so fat chance, and telling this guy on the bus, who is older, and shops for brides on the Internet dating cites, having last year married a girl from some African country, actually went to her town, got married and she disappeared 3 days later, never to be seen or heard from again, now, engaged to a girl from Vietnam, and having issues, with sending passport money, and allegedly the girl never received it, and me telling this guy the same thing, I told him the last time he had issues with women overseas, the only one who can help him, is probably the State Department or an Embassy, I know some immigration law, but that is more from a policy or constitutional background, not actual cases, but, my guess is, that lonely elderly or even younger men, who shop for foreign brides, are being taken, sending money, that will go to corrupt authorities or to support a girl's family, with her, having no intentions of marrying the American, but who has every intention of bilking him for every dime she can get . . . buyer beware, money can't buy you love, I stopped in at the Montana Coffee Trader to reconnect to the web and check out the news, old, new, yesteryear or election info, I find that Washington, D.C., is the entertainment capital of the world, with me laughing my ass off, at MSNBC's Rachel Maddow's comments about the 24 hours after the lame ass, Senator, Todd Akin's comments on "legitimate rape" and the GOP ditching him ASAP, but the only ones not calling for his resignation, was the Democrats, they wanted this fool, and didn't want him to step down, because he might be replaced by someone more competent and harder to beat!  LOL!

Cruising Down the Highway, Not in a Pink Cadillac

I swear, if you have never taken a ride around Flathead Lake in the fall, you are missing, one of the most brilliantly, what beautiful, amazing, glorious, awesome, falls I have ever seen in my life!  As we hit, Bigfork, our original destination, and decided to take our first or second favorite trip, either the Lake or Glacier, the white, billowy clouds, were literally, tumbling down the canyons, covering the tops of the mountains, that were drizzling a bit, with a storm out over Columbia Falls, it appeared, and there was a small tempest raging over the bay, as we headed out onto open road, near, Wood's Bay, waves, white caps, distant clouds, purple, dark, heavy, but that weather only emphasized the bright orchard vineyards, that were on fire, up against the green grasses, golds, teals, craggy rocks, amidst, golden popular trees, reds, yellow, oranges, and every other color scheme in the hot shades, contrasted up against the cooler color schemes of the blues, the greens, the purples, and whites of the clouds, off the charts, amazingly breath taking!

John, a man of few words, teaching me to actually be in company, without talking, and sometimes dreading what John spites out of his mouth, due to years of being a lone duck, an alternative, Gothic, kind of guy, a short, sensitive, poor Christian boy, who just wanted to love the woman of his dreams, Jen, spews venom in rapid fire, when he does actually let me in on his thoughts, short man's syndrome . . . I pass, Pollyanna, just wants to enjoy the drive, the music, and the scenery, conversation is lacking, and totally contrary to what I think, but everyone has their episodes, their history, and needs to vent, and generally, John's goes from total silence to full blown rage, not letting go of some football player, joke type that he hates, who happened to make some reference, either to John or Dave Gahan, lead singer for DePeche Mode, his passion, and after drinking some Jack Daniels, went ape shit on this bigger dude, and sent him, the big guy to the hospital, and John, Mr. law abiding citizen to jail, until he was such a stress case, over missing work, that the jail didn't think it was worth it . . . so, things better left unsaid, rage left not manifest, and silence is golden!  

Gotta take the good with the bad, and I dig all the places this guy who lives, breathes and dies for the same nature and mountainous adventures I do, takes me.  I'm lovin' it!  And he lets me rent his couch, for the month, so I have a place to lay my head between cop episodes . . . may not have a long stay, since I wrote that, you are more likely to be shot by a cop, than contact Ebola . . . truth hurts!  Blame, Chris Hayes, MSNBC, he said it, I just republished it, but I wish I would have been the one to say it!  LOL, pay for your thrills, like exercising your first amendment rights to freedom of speech and the press!  After waiting for the bus, for about 5 minutes, and seeing a highway patrolman, and two sheriffs drive by, I ditched in the mall, and gave up on going to the library . . . on the mall, it says, The Vapor Place . . . and I disappear into the throngs of shoppers, rather than the normal suspects who ride the bus!  LOL! Live hard, die free . . . my motto.

Cows Going Home, Miller Name in Dirt, Velvet Tan Hills

Back the action camera, as John is driving b . . . MORMON NSA, in Utah with 30,000 spies, just hijacked an analysis of my dream last night, about my daughter Nicole, who lives in Washington, D.C., stole about 2 fucking hours worth of great dream analysis, this should prove, absolutely, that they are lying, that they stole my cases, my houses, my vehicles, my kids, my resume, my furniture, my blogz, my stories, my writing, and now my dream analysis . . . they know, I FUCKING HATE, REWRITING all this shit, even though it was about my daughter, and about their fucking agents, several of which have infiltrated my family, making my children choose between the other parent of their children, and their mother, their REAL MOTHER, NOT SOME DUMBASS SISTER, WITH HUGE FUCKING TITS, DUMB KIDS, DUMB LIFE, BUT REPUBLICAN!  A BUSH LOVER, ADULTERER, LIAR, A DEN OF THIEVES WHO WANT CREDIT FOR EVERYTHING I HAVE DONE FROM 2000 ON . . . THE LAST TIME MY DAUGHTER, WAS ACTUALLY AT A HOME I OWNED AND OPERATED, WITH TWO BEING STOLEN OR CONTROLLED!

This is total theft of Intellectual property, that they couldn't do, write, think, make up, or live, in 10,000 years they are so boring, have inane stupid kids, therefore, they have to lay claim to mine!  These goddamn dirt bags, Shelley, I just wrote about Shelley, A.E. Miller, the Blue Ribbon Meat or Beef Company from Logan Utah, who Shelley's loser son, Isaac, wanna be aka, Elliot Secrist, bass guitarist for God's Revolver & Maraloka, plus, (Old School) Parallax, got a girl pregnant, a Miller, that is now a symbol of Shelley, not me, sitting her in McDonald,s the government whore, who they want to be me . . . why don't the FBI, or the CIA, actually send someone over to meet me, because, I know they have an asshole, sitting there, who is a Duty to God, ass Mormon, or FBI, loser, here to say and lie that it is Rachel, the bit fucking tit ass, bitch they, are trying to pass off as me, among others, with little, Baby Huey, remember the cartoon, from the 50's and 60's, that is Rachel's dumb ass Matt!  Isaac is a criminal like MOMMY DEAREST!

So, Rachel and the girls' squad, are famous, get my name, my money, my great kids, my cases, my blogs, and they couldn't write a fucking resume, Rachel is a lame ass idiot at best, three plastic surgeries, three times cut for bigger and better boobs, fake teeth, fake ass, fake, tummy tuck, good fuck!  What in the hell, of course they are on their side, it is sooooooooooooooo easy, I write, they erase what they don't like, so I get sick of rewrites, and they steal the money, for the blogz that go viral, claiming that a total dumb ass bitch that should be in prison, along with the entire, extended Southwick crime syndicate and family, check out Edward Southwick Sr. my dad's brother, the engineer, and has a law degree, the money launderer . . . you might find traces of the money!  And you guys call yourself law enforcement, 6 fucking years of this bull shit, daily theft, you know ever word I write, unless I get lucky or it is in the middle of the night, I might slide it passed the Mormon NSA, located in Utah . . . but they steal the ones they like and erase the ones they don't like, or delete the damaging part . . . and you just simply CAN'T CATCH THEM, CAN'T SEE THIS, THERE IS NOT EVIDENCE ON THIS COMPUTER?  ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME, AND THE STUPID AS HELL, FUCKING INTELLIGENCE COMMITTEE, DIANE FEINSTEIN, AND OTHER DUMB ASSES IN CONGRESS, JUST SIMPLY CAN'T CATCH THEM?  HOLY SHIT!

I will replace this, that totally incriminates the main players, reveals all their bull shit, their lies, their thefts, and 14 goddamn years of fucking with me and my family, and your numb chucks can't catch them, and they can freeze my cursor on a dime?  WOW . . .

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PUSSY & THE PENIS--COME ON! MONICA HEARTS BILL . . . I AM SORRY, BUT, I CAN'T JUST EXCUSE THE BEHAVIOR OF EITHER ON OF THEM, AND THE TIMING OF MS. LEWINSKI IS HORRIBLE, AND PROBABLY POLITICALLY PLANNED . . . THERE ARE GOLD DIGGERS, SOCIAL CLIMBERS & POWER DIGGERS! I WAS DISGUSTED WITH BOTH FOX NEWS OR BETTER KNOWN AS OPINION, AND WITH POLITICALLY CORRECT, MORNING JOE, MSNBC--A 22 YEAR OLD INTERN, IS SMART ENOUGH TO KNOW, THAT WHAT SHE WAS DOING WAS WRONG, AS DID PRES. BILL CLINTON! NO EXCUSES! SO 16 YEARS LATER, THE POOR SOCIAL MEDIA VICTIM, THE ORIGINAL CYBER-BULLIED PERSON, SCREAMS FOWL, WHO SHE SAID WAS DAILY CALLED A SLUT, BIMBO, TRAMP, GUTTER WHORE, AND SHE HAD SOME OTHER DEROGATORY TERM, THAT SEEMED TO UPSET HER THE MOST, AND YOUR POINT? TRUTH IS A DEFENSE, IN ANY SLANDER & LIBEL CASE, WHICH IS EXACTLY WHY LEWINSKI'S ATTORNEYS NEVER SUED THE NETWORK NEWS! NOW, POLITICAL PUNDITS, AND THEIR ILK, AFTER THE FACT, FORGETTING IMPEACHMENT HEARINGS, ARE SAYING THAT BILL GOT AWAY WITH IT, AND LITTLE 38 YEAR OLD MONICA IS STILL SUFFERING FROM, THE CONSEQUENCES OF HER ACTIONS! SHE CAN'T GET A JOB, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH . . . DIDN'T SHE WRITE A BOOK? DID SHE PROFIT FROM THE BOOK? LIKE MOST WOMEN, WHO HAVE AFFAIRS WITH POWERFUL MEN, MAKE CAREERS OF THEIR LIAISONS, AND IF THEY DON'T, THEY ARE STUPID! TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN! HELL, BILL IS THE MOST BANKABLE POLITICIAN RIGHT NOW, SO GET ON IT GIRL!

When Your Going Through Hell, Just Keep On Going!

That is exactly what political survivors, Bill and Hillary Clinton did, one of the most, if not the most powerful couple, probably in the world, and for sure in the United States . . . time heals everything!  The Clinton's have staying power, they weather the storms, generally together, even as in the case with Lewinski, focusing more on what they could accomplish together as opposed to separate, and did anyone take Monica, for something other than a toy for Bill, as was Jennifer Flowers, and others?  Seriously, do you really think, that Bill would give up, at the time, his partner, his mate, not only as a political power couple, but matching him in brains, talent, and the scope of what she could accomplish.  I remember, during that time, thinking, as one ambitious woman to another, relating very much to Shakespeare's, Lady MacBeth, that there are things more important, than an adoring husband, or even a faithful husband, as nice as that would be, some of the female sex, actually, want as much power as they can get, not for selfish interests, but actually through, altruistic contributions, either of experience, talent, educations, training, and who has more of that than Hillary, separate and aside from Bill!  Her resume, is the best, by far, of any person, ever who had run, or who has been considered a candidate for the presidency of the United States, sexism, aside!  Look at it as qualifications for the top job in the country.

One of my lame ass friends, heard me, about a year ago, after there was speculation that Hillary would run, really, do ya think?  Come on, there are self-evident truths, that cannot be ignored, she has, not only her own stellar credentials, but she was side by side, with Bill as he climbed the power ladders in American politics. But, my 33 year old friend, so there is some excuse, said, I would never vote for Hillary, and I asked him why, thinking he might have some, argument worthy of considering the merit, or his point . . . no, way too deep for this fool, he said, simply, because she is female!  Well, I am sorry, that is just not good enough! And his reasoning is about as dumb as it gets, if that is the best you got, buddy, forget it!  Obviously he has never heard of Queen Elizabeth, who reigned over the British Empire, when it really controlled a great part of the world, spanning sea to sea, and continent to continent, taking her job very serious, and her troops and supporters, equally as committed to ruling the world . . . or how about the Iron Lady, Margaret Thatcher, or Golda Mayer, or Bhutto, who was gunned down, yet was favored as a ruler.

Politics, Politics, Politics . . . Nothing Is Too Low

The timing is questionable at best, the topic a cover-up, and the class is missing, you just let sleeping dogs lie . . . so, you are telling me, with social media being around for the last 16 years, you are now just thinking about becoming the poster child?  She mentioned the kid who was bullied and jumped off the bridge to his death, while horrible, and tragic, do you really need to flagellate yourself, or prostrate yourself again for the press, to give them further fodder, to scrutinize what happened, or is this an attempt to pay Bill back, or remind him of your love, and rekindle, the child's play again?  What the hell?  It looked like you got a grip on your diet, looked great, had some hot ass leather pants, and jacket, I don't see the point, can't you contact the families of people who have had tragedies, and comfort them, set up a foundation, using your name, there seemed to be no game plan . . . so what is up?  The newscasters thought she was so brave, handled herself with grace a dignity, and, you don't think that after 16 years, someone should not be over this?

I think, that, the Republicans, see Hillary, looming on the horizon, and it is an offensive blow, to try to discredit both Bill and Hillary, and plant seeds in the public mind, that all those National Enquirer stories, about Bill's filandering, or that Hillary must have had a secret gay lover, or something, to have stayed by her man . . . she was and is, as ambitious as hell, and Bill if a fucking great asset, not only to Hillary, but to all Democrats, so trash him!  They are dragging Mitt Romney out of the ashes, hoping that people will remember him for the only thing he was good at, marriage and kids, or those strong, Mormon families, he just secretly has binders of women, outsourced tons of jobs overseas, and never did one of his sons, serve the country, he claims to love, and he truly has a Mormon agenda . . . and remember that little 1st amendment, separation of church and state, this is a state matter, worship his great family elsewhere!  (I just accidentally misspelled the word, Democrats and spelled in Demoncrats, and that is really the way, most Republicans see them . . . those little Moral Majority types that would throw American under the bus for China, or any of our enemies, or at least competitors, for trade, exporting and commerce.)

Marriage is a Business, if You Want Romance, Have an Affair

I know that is not a popular statement, but I think there is a lot of truth to that . . . divorce now days, does what death used to do, open a person to the option of having another wife, or in the Mormon case, they didn't even wait for death, they just decided, that when you are tired of one spouse, as if women don't get tired of seeing the same old fart, next to them in bed, too, they just double up!  John Oliver, the British political comedian, did a spoof, about the U.S. Supreme Court, when someone made the comment that, drawing pictures of attorneys, or petitioners and respondents, in court, using artists, rather than TV, and he and his crew, went to great length, to use dogs, to represent members of the high court, which I take issue with, but, putting that aside for a moment, the dog court was deliberating two free exercise clause, 1st amendment cases, one with a Muslim or someone in prison, who is asking the court to consider his religious beliefs of wearing a beard, as opposed to the prison's interest in the safety of prisoners . . . hiding contraband or something like that, which is a huge deal to prisons, I had to defend one of my clients, who was told by her doctor, to always have her cell phone with her, she forgot, while going to the Pleasant Valley, if you could call any prison that, Prison, was searched and the phone dropped out of her pocket, and she was denied visiting her son forever, until I argued with prison administration, and got her visitation rights back, but they called a cell phone, contraband, and had big time rules, policies and procedures against anything resembling that . . . a beard, could, contain, sharp objects, metal, glass, and cause harm to another prisoner, so I would argue, if I were on the court, when you have been convicted of a crime, you forfeit some privacy and religious rights to keep all prisoners as safe as possible.  The second case, was related to U.S. District Judge Waddoups, recent decriminalization of polygamy . . . one Justice, Kennedy or Roberts, said, well I don't know about having 3 wives, but can I have 2?

First of all, on a serious note, because to me, it is not funny, having fought Utah, almost, yes, Monica II, lost not only may life, but all my possessions, chased, hunted, intimidated, and traumatized, after already losing 8 years of my life, and having been female circumcised, this stuff is no joking matter, and the atrocities of polygamy or horrendous . . . but, the U.S. Supreme Court, has already decided the issue, the legal term is stari decisis, or another closely related term, res judicata . . . both suggest, in judicial economy, that the issues has already been decided or has come before the court, Reynolds v. United States, back in the 1890's . . . the court held that a man could believe anything they wanted to, but when beliefs cross the line, over to actions, and those actions are contrary to the laws of the United States, that has violated 1st amendment, establishment clause . . . consider that a brief amicus, brief, without really writing one, that is just the law, it has been decided!

Viagra & Cialis . . . 40 to 50 Year Old Impotent Men?

Every time I look at those commercials, granted they are actors, I noticed how strained the commercials are to make the couple attractive and still, very much in love, she is still the one who makes you hot and bothered, but, for whatever reason, you just can't get it up . . . so we are going to give you an erection lasting 4 hours, every man's dream that I know of, and if you can't get off in that time, call a damn doctor!  People used to die by the age of about 35 back in the day, with almost 20 years of marriage under their belt, given maturation years in those days, so, many men and women died of natural causes, due to harsh conditions, and those who survived, moved on a remarried . . . that is not the case, I just heard of a 113 year old woman, getting married to her 78 year old boyfriend!  Amazing!  I am likely to be the old lady in the hotel booking online commercial, where the grandmotherly looking woman, is sitting with a markedly younger man, and the hotel bell boy, says, when you and your nephew . . . and she smiles, and says, oh, no, he is not my nephew, he is my lover!  

Now days, dynamics are changing, social mores, values, and traditions, as seen in gay marriage, or social media and dating cites, with the hottest dating cite, being the Cougar Dating, young men are seeing all the Baby Boomers, career women, with portfolios, property, hot careers, and a ton of money to burn, many not having children, and they are saying as women of yesteryear, why not, do I want an up and coming guy I have to fight through school, early career, children, or just hit on a woman who already has all that, you know what they say, older women make better lovers . . . just keep in mind men, the 14th amendment, you know that little equal protection clause that is giving gay marriage the edge with the U.S. federal courts, is the same amendment that will give women equal access to more than one spouse too!  In the early Mormon Church, women were encouraged to marry up, ecclesiastically, that is, if they were married to a lower level priesthood member, and a higher level priesthood bearer, asked her to marry him, she could be sealed to another man . . . that tends to sober men up a bit, if they can have their cake and eat it too, they will, but if they have to divide their time with another man, woman are better a servicing more than one man, per night, so it makes sense, and two incomes is better than one, and women can stay home with their young . . . make sense in today's economy!  LOL!  How do you like them apples, gentlemen!  LOL!

Monica's Stunt, Should Have No Sway to the Rational Mind

But, there is always the Fox Opinion crowd, who will jump on this, demonize Hillary, as a less of a partner, when no woman or man, other than the most committed, or religious, or ethical, doing the right thing, putting their penis and pussy aside, and there are those who will, or who have sense enough to realize what a mess that could make of a good thing with their spouse, regardless of the fact that it may take Viagra and Cialis to take care of business, and stick with the forever program, with many, many rewards, as Bill and Hillary, just welcomed their first grandchild, by Chelsea Clinton, whatever, and there are joys in and of themselves, that surpass that of sex, or are more rewarding, long lasting, and every bit as exciting, really, sex is great, but overrated!  Get REAL!  

Please tell me that we are stronger, smarter, willing to sacrifice the lower pleasures for the higher ones, that we are not just quivering members, just a heart, victims of ourselves, our passions, without a mind to dictate what is the better course, the noble, the great, the loyal, the brave, the willing to delay gratification, for a higher goal, or purpose . . . Blake Shelton, sings a song, where are all the real men, or something like that?  Maybe he sang that song before he cheated, but the great and awful thing about today, is that the wives are just as willing able and free to cheat too, but you can't believe everything you read in the tabloids!

Just a suggestion, if you are married and relatively happy, stay that way, stay faithful, be committed, or if things are unbearable, have the dignity, respect for your partner, not to cheat, to try counseling or try changing things, this is one area I believe religious training may come in handy . . . I was told by a marriage and family therapist, that I had the personality profile of a hooker, but my religious beliefs stop me from fucking every guy that walks down the street.  I have never cheated, never will, and as evidence of that, is the seriousness I take being or taking a marriage vow, or an oath of office, as an attorney, to protect, defend and preserve the family or the Constitution . . . my word is as good as gold!  

Be an Oath Keeper, a Promise Keeper, a Marriage Keeper

The Institution of Marriage Is Good, and as a Single Person, I am a Menace to Society, So Many Men, So Little Time!  LOL!

TASTEFULLY TWISTED, CRAZY HEALTHY, UP! ALL! NIGHT! FEAR IS CONTAGIOUS . . . FROM CHRIS HAYES, MSNBC, YOU ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE SHOT BY A COP, THAT CONTACT EBOLA! LOL! TRUE! MONICA LEWINSKI IS BACK IN THE NEWS, THE VICTIM--I WAS IN LOVE WITH MY BOSS, HE JUST HAPPENED TO BE THE PRESIDENT; I WANTED TO DIE, FIRST VICTIM OF SOCIAL MEDIA--REALLY, SWEETHEART, YOU ARE DOING THIS TO YOURSELF, HAVE BEEN BILKING WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU, 16 YEARS AGO, NONE OF US WOULD EVER THINK OF YOU, EVER, IF YOU WOULD NOT KEEP GOING ON TV, WINING ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED, THAT NOBODY, BUT YOU & YOUR BOSS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR! GET OVER IT! USE YOUR LOOKS, EDUCATION, KNOWLEDGE, EXPERIENCE, NAME RECOGNITION, AND HELP OTHER YOUNG WASHINGTON INTERNS, BE SMARTER THAN YOU WERE, AND HOW TO TAKE CHARGE OF A CHARGED SEXUAL ATTRACTION, WHICH WILL HAPPEN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. PRESIDENT OBAMA, V.P. BIDEN, MOVIE STARS, POLITICIANS, TAKING ON THE NFL DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, IN A VIOLENT CULTURE, WITH TEAM SUPPORT, TO MAKE "NO MORE" SPOUSAL ABUSE A REALITY; PEACE STARTS IN HOMES, TOWNS, STATES, NATIONS, COUNTRIES AND IS NOT JUST A DREAM . . . MAKE PEACE HAPPEN! NEW HABITS CAN BE FORMED IN AS LITTLE AS TWO WEEKS!

Rationality, Has Returned to the U.S.A.

Forty three people, who were quarantined, made it the 21 days, sequestered from the rest of society, with NONE, actually developed the Ebola virus or any symptoms, which is amazing news!  It is proving to be harder to contact the disease, than originally thought, great news, at least to the portion of the population, that never freaked out, screamed that ISIS would purposefully inflict themselves with the contagious disease, and then storm our borders, in an act of terror . . . so, to most of us, this is absolutely wonderful news, but to the dooms day, sky is falling, end of the world, create something out of nothing for political reasons, it must be a horribly depressing day, that we, as a species are actually going to survive the Ebola virus, and more people didn't die, tipping the scales to those who wanted the travel banned from Africa, inadvertently, trashing our black president, is it a transfer of anger, leading up to the elections.

It is reprehensible, for Republicans and others, to overreact, make suggestions, that terrorists, might do something, that, they may or may not have thought of, but we, as a country, do not need to plant the seeds of terrorism, ISIS and other terrorists, are plenty capable of coming up with acts of terror, without politicizing Ebola, seemly wanting larger numbers of people dead, wow . . . you have a social responsible duty, to listen to the doctors, stop saying we need to appoint a czar, then complaining when there is a health care czar, with the skills to orchestrate the many emergency agencies, on a local, state and national level . . . the czar needs leaderships skills, not doctor skills.  Klain, is not going to be in the hospital handling those exposed to the virus; he is going to be coordinating the efforts, communicating with all concerned, listening to doctors, and passing information on to the President.  Fear mongering is ineffective, and totally out of order!

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg, 81, Up! All! Night! Dissenting Ruling

Is it any wonder, certain people are appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court; Ms. Ginsberg, with more energy and intellect at age 81, staying up all night, Friday night, writing the dissent, to the male majority, in a Texas voting rights case, that would discriminate against many minorities, with Justice Ruth, being joined, by none other than the other two female members of the high court!  No surprises there, it takes on to know one, that is a senior citizen, without the means of Ginsberg, but with her relating to many people in huge numbers are going to be kept from voting, on election day, due to state Republican legislatures, doing all they can to undermine the Voter's Rights Act, which, is unconstitutional in and of itself.  The plain language of the Act, I would guess is doing everything to facilitate voting, for all Americans, even those, who may not have a current driver's license, a car, gas money, etc.  Which tends to end up denying more people who traditionally vote for Democrats, over Republicans.

Like I said, in the blog, I would advise people, if the female candidate is at all viable, and worthy of a vote, to try to feminize Congress, with a more representative demographically accurate mirror of the American public.  As you will see, and in a microcosmic demonstration, of exactly what I am talking about, with only three women appointees on the 9 member, star chamber, minorities, women, issues that affect those who's rights are being suppressed, and trampled on, with just not enough alleged minorities on the bench, as if women should still be considered a minority, with the majority of women, outnumbering men, at least by several percentage points, they, can never, never, never, carry the majority, on some of these issues!

In a perfect world, one that is more concerned about protecting rights, regardless of social status, or part of a minority, it should not matter, whether their are enough women, blacks, Hispanics or other minorities, to trump a majority of white upper class males, or just males, with Justice Thomas, being a pivotal member, as both a male, and a member of a minority.  There should not be discriminatory rulings, ever, with a total vision of protecting the constitutional rights, freedoms, and liberties, regardless of anything else coming into play, that is America at its best . . . but, until we reach that level of fairness, sophistication, and equality, we need more women, in Congress and on the U.S. Supreme Court!  A dissent was not necessary, because the Court was not, ruling on the constitutionality of the voter suppression, but trying to get something by way of a holding of some type, because the voting was being done by today, Monday, October, what 19, 2014 . . . but, she was so upset by the effect of the ruling or lack thereof, that this feisty 81 year old pistol, not bothered at all by the night, lack of sleep, just did what these justices do best, and kicks out a scathing dissent, without even a majority opinion in writing, to directly respond to, she just responded to the final briefs of the attorneys, it sounds like.  Who said, Octogenarians, can't kick ass, as Ginsberg did, Thanks!

Monica, Monica, Monica, Enough

Your actions, at 22 years old, when you, as you put it, fell in love with your boss, who happened to be the fucking President of the United States! You act as if you couldn't do anything about this mad crush you had on this guy, that you had no morals, no brains, no understanding that this may hurt, not only your career, but the President's, and I am not excusing him, but at two year affair, not to mention, what it would do to Hillary Clinton, the embarrassment, the press, the, what you call, the fact that you were the first, social media victim, waking up with your face all over the news, on the web, and on TV . . . what the fucking hell did you expect?  You obviously had something going for you, besides, tits and ass, by way of brains, must have had good grades in college, or honors and awards, that would constitute the level of interns, that would be chosen to work at the seat of power, back in Washington, D.C.

I suspect, that it may not be, just love that drove you then, or drives you now, but notoriety, fame, money, a new book, or whatever, but you are embarrassing all women, by your somehow, ignorant, victim mentality, that you were so twitter patted, that you were completely incapable of rejecting Bill's advances, you couldn't have been moved, or talked to someone, or simply quit your internship?  You have a master's degree or an advanced education, and you can't be hired for a job?  This was, 16 years ago, so, I would bet that there are many people who wouldn't even know who you are, but for you continuing to show up on TV, crying in your soup.  I can guarantee that I have not thought of you, your name, your relationship with the President, or anything . . . you are not a pimple on the butt of the universe to anyone, like you were not, other than being used as political fodder against the President, by his political enemies. 

I, bitch and moan, more than I think I should, but, as of writing this blog, right here, right now, my computer cursor was frozen, with two of my blogs, being deleted, just this week, or sections of them.  If I was left alone, and there were not forces, relentlessly, constantly, riding my ass, the reader would never, never, never hear from me, in spite of the money, the cases, the music of my son's, the credit, my manuals, even then, I have let things go, over and over and over again, until they fuck with me again!  Over all, I am a happy person, with life, being pretty sunny, most of the time, with this one line of defense, one avenue of freedom, of speech, and I go ape shit, when they take the one thing that I can actually use my education, regardless of pay, or anyone really knowing who I am, just the fact that I get to speak, and there are people listening to me.  I don't care about getting credit for my writings, but I sure as hell, are not going to let the people torturing me, stopping me, and causing me all this angst, not only get the credit, but the money, whatever fame, and then still claiming that even my children and grandchildren, are not mine, they are like the fucking Ebola virus, killing everything in their paths!

You are in the prime of your life, beautiful, smart, educated, and everything you need to survive in America, even negative press, is good press, use the fact that you have name recognition and start your own business, consult young women, educating them on keeping a check on your emotions, warning them not to hurt their own futures.  You can only love someone else, as much as you love yourself, teach young women, share your experience, with female interns who can learn from your mistakes.  Like my mother always said, experience is a great teacher, but it is a FOOL who learns by nothing else!  Help young women, control their hearts, their minds, their passions, and thus, protecting your or their futures, you have it all, USE IT!

It's Monday, So, The Daily Grind is Appropriate

Wow, what a toss up . . . I love the ham and cheese quiche, at the Break Cafe & Coffee Shop, on Harrison St., in Missoula, and I thought, I have never tasted better, until I stopped in at the Montana Coffee Trader, across from the Kalispell mall . . . okay, a toss up.  Then about a year and a half ago, one of my client's daughters, who lives in Fort Benton, took me to this bakery in Great Falls, on our way up over Glacier to Kalispell, for me to appear in court, for her mother, and she said we had to stop at this bakery and get sandwiches and these cookies to die for . . . which we did, and she was absolutely right, amazing food.  So, for the last year, I have been coming every once in a while to Great Falls, looking for this bakery and deli, not remembering exactly where it was located, but never forgetting the food.  I would describe what I thought it looked like, and the locals, would try to point me to the right direction, and I ended up discovering a cute bakery and restaurant, called something like the Daisy, where I had wonderful lemon bars, to rival the homemade ones I used to make for my kids, when they were young, the combo of sweet and sour, tart, with powdered sugar, just so tasty, but, I still had never found the place me and Tabitha stopped at, until, by accident, it was a bit cold on morning about a month ago, and I noticed, just a small sign on the back of a building, through an alley, where a couple of smokers were standing, and I came in through the back door, and low and behold, there was The Daily Grind!  

I found it by accident, I kept going to the other side of the street, that the Great Falls DMV, where my driver's license, ended up falling into a black hole, never to be seen again, and not being the driver, the first time I came to the deli, I had no idea of the directions, but, better late than never, and I discovered the name of the place, finally, which would have helped the locals, know which direction to send me in.  And in about a month, the owner is packing up and moving to the central part of town, and I would never have found them, so all is well that ends well, I am sitting here, with bright windows, a bacon and cheese, quiche, smothered in salsa, and sour cream!  So, good, a Diet Coke, and to top it all off, a bit early, but a piece of yummy pumpkin pie, with whip cream . . . all to die for!  And you wonder why I can't lose weight?  Too much good food, so little time! LOL!  That is why I found the movie, Identity Theft comical, because they were playing on my thinking about cowboys . . . to them, as is the  heavy, funny actress, prime beef to cowboys, who are judging their women, like they would a prize bull or herfferd, by the marbling content, or the fat content, making for better steak, not to mention, beefier kids, who can through more tonnage aground on the farm, they are looking for a sturdy constitution in a female, one who can help around the farm or ranch, baby making machine for the football teams, beefy and strong, so I am truly in the right part of the country!  My boys are both tall and thin, but that is their father's genetic contribution.

City Boys & Country Boys Think Different, Thank God

In the movie, the funny redhead, who is with a city boy, and driving him nuts, singing to the music, every station, with him trying several, dancing goes with the music too, making him work to haul her ass back to his business, so the cops in his jurisdiction who are not going to help with the identity theft issues, that are getting him fired from his job, not willing the extradite her, will help, with the woman standing right in front of them, this is the guy's goal.  When he treats her bad, she just jokes that he has lost all functions below the waist, is frustrated, and that explains the mistreatment, she keeps calling him her husband, and he his awful wife.  She doesn't want to go to the hotel room, so she goes to the Foxhole Club, gets a drink and there is this large, beefy cowboy, who picks up on her, and makes her look in proportion to him, not large at all, just right.  He is laughing and having a great time with her, when the other guys, who doesn't want her out of his sight, finds her with this guy, who tells, city boy, that he is so lucky to have this beautiful, charming, and funny wife, and he better treat her better, or some other guys is going to steal her away!  LOL!  That is why I love cowboys . . . they are looking an women in a whole different way.

I learned this about 5 years ago, in Salina, Utah, at the Cattleman's Association, bull auction.  And the best looking cowboys, would smile at me, tip their cowboy hats, say, howdy mam' . . . or a total hottie, coming up to me and say, with a grin, are yah, finding everything you want, mam'?  If he only knew, what I really wanted, but, sometimes, thoughts are better left in the mind, and not gushing all over the dirt, at the auctioneer arena . . . holy shit, is this for real . . . they must know, as I thought I did, that I am expecting $118 million from one of my cases, when I actually believed that if you won a lawsuit, even if you sued the governor, the attorney general, the Department of Commerce, the Division of Securities, and about 4 attorneys, and several investigators, on a $357M, securities case, that you would actually get the money, if you won.  And I fully intended on getting a ranch and breeding bulls, especially, now I am seeing the male bulls, the ones in the Wrangler Jeans, cowboy boots, and Stetson hats, oh, yeah!

NFR, Signs of Love

My client, and a semi-famous, cowboy photo artist, took me down to the National Finals Rodeo, when it used to be held in Las Vegas, and the whole town, because country.  Husbands and wives, pulled in Vegas in their big ass horse trailers, with hay for the 16 horses, they had rattling around in those things.  Either these couples were glad to be off the ranch or farm for the event, holding hands, spending money like it was going out of style, at four large convention centers, or they really just loved their wives, buying them clothes, purses . . . I got the one I currently have, American West Brand, black leather, bling, fine craftsmanship, fringe and the works, love it to death, get a ton of compliments, and it holds my little acre computer just fine, and actually, make-up, a few changed of underwear, a shirt or two, perfume, and about whatever I want to carry, not huge, but well designed and always looks great, with a lifetime guarantee!  It didn't matter what size, shape or flavor their wives were, they genuinely dug their partners . . . that could be that they are so needed as a spare hand around the ranch/farm, or that after a long day sitting in a tractor, cutting hay, barley, or alfalfa, a good home cooked meal, was all it takes to keep these guys happy, none of those, lollipop gals, with the head that is bigger than their shoulders and hips, with no curves, just like a young boy, straight up and down . . . city boys style, not for these guys!

Don't get me wrong, but the gals, a ton are in just as good shape as the guys, and just as tough.  I wanted my cousin, who lives in Las Vegas, and my friend, who ended up dead, to come up to Montana, and meet the girls up here . . . oh, no, they seemed to have this attitude that the woman, because they were cowgirls, were not feminine, nor pretty, and would kick their lilly white asses, scrawny asses at that, from one end of the state to the other.  I am not sure where they got this idea from, Gunsmoke, The Virginian, Bonanza, when they were young, what, they are pretty, wild, fun, in shape, and dig sex as much as the guys . . . I figured that with 27 guns in each home, it was kind of like a truce, a checkmate, between the king and queen in chess. Like I have said, in Montana, I have laughed at what the crimes are, in the police bloggers, or blotter, law & disorder, so funny, and I thought it was a joke at first, but all the cops are doing, with a fun flare is report the normal calls, but if there is a crime, it generally goes from a phone call, to murder, so, I think there is a healthy respect in Big Sky Country, you mind your business and I will mind mine, or it is lethal!

Shelby's Local Stock--Nice

I have a friend named Kathy, a cowgirl from Rexburg Idaho, told me about her friend named JoAnn . . . beauty, Kathy, drives a shuttle for the Salt Lake Shuttle, that services Montana, after Rimrock was put out of business, leaving much of Montanans, who didn't have a car, like myself, after my last car was blown up, on the 13th East exit in Salt Lake, after I wrote about license plate scanning violating the 4th amendment, putting millions of dollars, in that police state, at risk, wanting the legislature to purchase machines that are even more invasive and faster, than the last models, and 4 sheriffs demanding my keys to my baby, my gold, Ford Ranger, King Cab, jacked Big Foot Tires, with black studded rims!  They were just a bit pissed that I outran, three sheriffs super SUVs, around Panguitch Lake, out of your jurisdiction boys . . . so they laid in wait until I ventured back in the state, to get some things in my house, that I hadn't seen for 2 1/2 months, now two years.  It was soooooo worth it!  LOL!

Kathy has seen me going back and forth between Montana and Utah a shit load of times, so we have become good friends . . . we were talking shop, men, kids, cops, shuttles, and she told me about another JoAnn, she was friends with, who had a Ph.D. and went to Texas to find a cowboy, she came back, never finding one, and went to Montana, met a rough and tough cowboy, and they have been married for something like 60 years now, happily, simple life, good life?  Now, I have been kicking around the state, and I meet guys from Boston, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Washington, D.C., etc., wanna be cowboys, or from a ranch, allegedly, in California, but a rhinestone cowboy, dressing the dress, but, really, do ya, think I am buying this documentary film producer, in a cowboy hat?  Or I meet, local, bred and born Montana boys, who love the outdoors, but hate cowboys, roughed up by them in high school, or something, hate jocks, football players, etc.  So, in Kalispell, there is one guy out of 40,000 that is a possibility.

I simply go down to the local Pizza Hut, and what the hell, two beef cake studs, just like in the country music videos, amazing . . . kids, but no wives, great.  These guys are just built, naturally, bred with us high marbling content, auto football players, or just because of the nature of their works, but holy, moley!  Butts, face level, packing the kids up, Levi and Wranger, nice . . . Shelby is looking better and better.  I am too old, but hey, I tend to be on the scale of gals to guys, closer to guys, in my thinking, and I prefer, cougar to dirty old woman, I know, I can just look and not touch, but so close, an arms length away.  Then, one of their tall, beautiful, dark haired in shape, wives came back to the table, reality!  The waitress even joked about someone doing the dishes, hubby, pipped up and said, that is her job . . . I'll volunteer, and I would even do them every day!  LOL!  Hopefully my adult kids are not reading this blog!  I am sure at least half of my kids, are older than these guys, it is there size that is deceiving.  How is that for cover . . .

These Dudes Can Swing Me Around With One Arm--Rag Doll

So this drunk cowboy, back to the movie, goes back to the hotel room with the comedian actress, and she starts joking that her, identity theft, captor, has male issues, so this cowboy needs to do her, while this city slicker watches . . . the cowboy, dances around and is having fun with the guy, who is totally disgusted, and finally locks himself in the bathroom, trying not to hear, these two, having riotous sex, these two beefy to heavy people, with most people, buying the, only movie star bodies have hot sex, really missing the boat on that one . . . the sex scene, while not showing much, is hilarious, fun, rowdy, and a plus to us, plus gals, and guys, who don't fit the adults that look like stretched out kids, with no weight at all on them!  That is just not real to over 50%, so a great telling scene . . . 

Another thing I like about cowboys, is that they are so physical, they just stay, lean, mean and fit, well into their later years, if not to death.  I have a friend, who lives in St. George, Utah, but he is one of 7 boys, all ranchers, until they got older, then they parted ways, leaving two bros to run the ranch, with them coming back in the spring and fall to herd cattle, from the highlands of Francis, Utah, near Kamas, to Toole, I think, with Dale, calling me on horseback, during the cattle drive, one fall . . . But, after not seeing Dale, a political foe and friend, depending on what the subject it, but basically good friends, I happened into Dale's neighborhood, a few years ago, after being in Montana for a while, and when he saw me, and, mind you he is in his 70s, always working in his huge garden, and running around, he literally grabbed me, happy to see me after so long, and picked me up, like a rag doll, and swung me around, effortlessly, without breaking a sweat . . . I just couldn't believe it!  And you wonder why I love cowboys!  Kick ass guys and gals, dig the girls just as much, none of this princess shit, I want cowgirls, for granddaughters!

NO MORE: V.P. JOE BIDEN, PRESIDENT OBAMA, LAW & ORDER, SPECIAL CRIME VICTIMS UNIT ACTRESS, AND MANY MORE, ARE HOLDING A MARATHON SUNDAY, MAKING A STATEMENT AND SHOWS, FOCUSING ON DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, DATING VIOLENCE, SEXUAL ASSAULT, AND RAPE . . . MOST OF THESE SHOWS, ARE BASED, IN NOT ENTIRELY ON REAL FACTS, FROM REAL CRIME UNITS, PROSECUTORS & VICTIMS UNITS; THEREFORE, THEY ARE NOT MADE UP, NO MATTER HOW INCREDIBLY AWFUL THEY ARE . . . HAVING WORKED A LOT, WRITTEN A MANUAL, UNDER THE VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN ACT, AN AWARD WINNING, ADOPTED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, AT LEAST FOR A GRAPHIC DESIGN I DID, MODIFYING IT TO FIT HUMAN BODY TRAFFICKING, ANOTHER CRIME, GENERALLY AGAINST WOMEN, I HAD TO TURN OFF THE MARATHON, AFTER ONE VICTIM WITH A PROTECTIVE ORDER, WAS ASSAULTED AND RAPED BY HER SOON TO BE EX-HUSBAND, LATER, RECANTED HER STORY, TO PROTECT HER DAUGHTER, WHO LOVED HER FATHER, THEN THE HUSBAND LIT HIS WIFE ON FIRE, ON THE STREETS, BY SPRAYING GASOLINE ON HER, THEN LIGHTING HER ONE FIRE. I STARTED TO CRY, I COULDN'T TAKE ANY MORE . . . THERE IS A FRUSTRATION, A SADNESS, ALMOST A FEELING OF DESPERATENESS, THAT WE, AS A SOCIETY HAVE NOT PROGRESSED MORE, AND SEEM TO BE AT THE SAME POINT WE WERE 20 YEARS AGO, WHEN I FIRST STARTED WORKING ON THE SYSTEM THAT IS TO TREAT, EDUCATE, INVESTIGATE, PROSECUTE, AND STOP DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, AND ALL THE OTHER CRIMES AGAINST WOMEN. THANKS GOD, WE HAVE A PRESIDENT, VICE PRESIDENT, AND OTHER MEN OF STATURE AND MERIT TO SPEAK OUT AGAINST THESE CRIMES, THAT ARE SCOFFED AT MY MANY MEN; THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION IS EVEN USING THE GREAT SEAL OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, TO PUT THE TOTAL STAMP OF APPROVAL, FORCE OF LAW, BEING OVER THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH, THAT ENFORCES THE LAWS THAT CONGRESS PASSES . . . I WAS HAPPY, TO SEE A VERY CANDID ARTICLE, WRITTEN IN THE SHELBY PROMOTER SPEAKING OUT AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE; YES, IT IS SAD, WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CITY OF SHELBY, IN THE DEMPSEY/GIBBONS FIGHT, BUT IT WAS JUST MONEY, WE ARE TALKING REAL LIFE, REAL FAMILIES, REAL CHILDREN AND AN EPIDEMIC IN THIS COUNTRY FAR WORSE THAN ANY EBOLA VIRUS, IN FACT IT IS LIKE A CANCER THAT PASSES FROM ON GENERATION TO ANOTHER, AND TO STOP IT IN OUR CHILDREN, WE MUST STOP IT IN OUR CURRENT RELATIONSHIPS, PERIOD. IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A CHILD, AND IT TAKES A VILLAGE, CHURCHES, SCHOOLS, WORKPLACES, HOSPITALS, COMMUNITIES, LAW ENFORCEMENT, THE COURT SYSTEM AND CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES TO STOP THIS ALMOST PANDEMIC SIZE PROBLEM IN THIS COUNTRY. WE NEED A RAGING MALE ARMY, TO DO AS THE MEN, LEADING THIS CAMPAIGN, AND JUST SIMPLY SAY . . . NO MORE!

The Line Between Love & Hate is Very Thin

The first time, I ever heard about, dating violence, was when, my older sister, Shelley, who was attending Utah State University, in Logan, Utah, had a crush on a white football players, named Jim Manning, I think, if I remember, listening to the vents of my bedroom, up through the vent to my parent's room, the night, they pulled my sister out of college, for the semester, after she was, beat up by the black football, player roommate, Shelley was seeing to make Jim jealous.  I guess he either figured out that she was using him to get to Jim, or he wanted more in the relationship, and pushed things further than Shelley was willing to go, and as is the case in abusive relationships, whether in a dating situation or in a marriage, when generally, the female, wasn't to get out of the relationship, or takes control, and starts to demand her independence, or is threatening to push the abuser, or at times, just a guy, who, turns into an abuser, out of her life, she is most at risk . . . I learned that through my own, not necessarily abusive relationship, other than he stalked me, would call me 24/7, parked his ass in my closet, after my roommates, left for Christmas vacation and refused to leave for two weeks, until they return, and eventually, was so obsessed, he could no longer work, so he started to forge checks, and was arrested and went to prison for 18 months, which at first he blamed on me, and threatened me, again, after he got out, and wanted me to go to jail, but, after studying his reactions, that the more I pushed him away, the harder he came on to me, so I told him, that he was more than welcome to come visit me, and that defused the obsession, it was the rejections, that flames the fire of obsession.  I learned that if I just acted normal, not pushing him away, and just let him visit, but not playing games, or trying to get rid of him, he became a semi-normal man, rational and we ended up friends, after all he put me through, and all I put him through.

Somehow, the chemistry, between a man and a woman, even without sex, which was the case with me and this guy, that didn't seem to matter, maybe that would have made it better, who knows, sometimes the conquest, the challenge, the pursuit, especially for an alpha male, who can basically get any, or most woman he wants, it is all about, the conquest, getting the girl . . . this guy was voted, Mr. Casanova, in his Brigham Young University, Mormon singles ward, with tons of women, he pursued, and once he got a date, that was the challenge, then it, or the fun was over, and he lost interest.  I, being the recently divorced, yet, still, very much a prude, self-righteously virtuous, he thought more innocent than most BYU coeds, even wondered if I really had ever been married, and thought my kids must have been born, via, immaculate conception, or through a petri dish, or artificial insemination, remember, I am the same one, who, when asked my my Mormon bishop, when a freshman, repenting over french kissing, with the bishop asking me if I had ever had oral sex, and I asked him what that was . . . threw me out of his office, saying I was wasting his time, yeah, that me, and my children will vouch for that mother . . . horrified, when their father told them the facts of life, the birds and the bees, at age 8 down to about one, with the boys, getting it, and the girls, sticking more along the lines of their mother's somewhat uptight attitudes, not as much anymore, but they don't want to know about it, so we will leave this off at this point.

I never put out, he never gave up . . . but seeing him, dart under the stairs wells, at the law school, crying when I shoved him out the door, on rainy nights, kind of got to me.  And, even at that, I reached a point, that I felt it was either me or him, so, thank God, a roommate, or someone, who was sick and tired of him chasing me, affecting our living situation with 6 girls, there, finally did something, or the forged checks took care of business.  This guy had probably a date a night, just to have the thrill of having the pursued victim accept, then he hated to go on the date.  I, however, was somewhat different, kind of gamy, rather cruel, mean, and coming out of a very normal, to me boring, nice marriage . . . but, boredom was the root of all evil for me, if there are not problems, make some, so I got divorced, and started fires elsewhere. The point I am trying to make, is it is complicated, hits you unaware . . . there are tale, tale signs of abuse, so heed those warnings, because if they are there from the first, don't flirt with danger, or you will, surely find it.  Too many times, girls want the bad boys, or guys want the girl who makes them crazy, insane, and messed up, but, generally speaking, neither of those combinations, work, for the most part, and lead to obsessive, controlling, power, fueled, addictive, dangerous relationships, that are destined to fail, cause misery, if not generations to cure.  BEWARE . . . IF A PERSON MAKES YOU CRAZY, RUN!

We Need Couples Who Show Us What Love Looks Like

I can honestly say, there is not one relationships, marriage, engagement, even dating, that makes me even want a relationship, really, so happy couples, need to speak up, volunteer at church, or get more exposure. My parents have been married for over 60 years, but, there was psychological, financial, emotional abuse, but, no physical abuse . . . that is not to say, there was no damage to children, or that, those three elements, because abuse takes place in all forms, that they didn't have a worse effect on me, or my other 7 siblings. However, I must say, that, after taking a human development class, and reading the book, that I recommend, highly, Intimate Patterns in Love & Marriage, a book that came out in the late 80's, as I recall, led me to at least somewhat understand relationships, often driven by our family scripts, often seeing out partners that mirror the relationship of that of our parents, while we are trying not to walk in that direction, as in domestic violence, alcoholism, emotional abuse, and while avoiding one aspect, of parental role model, we walk into another side of it . . . but a good book, very insightful.

After starting a master's degree in human and family relations, at Utah State University, prior to going to law school, and reading that book, charting a huge genogram of my family genealogy, I realized that me and my husband of almost 15 years, were just victims of old family patterns, and I decided to lay one marriage on the line, to save, four others, or the possibility of breaking the chain of predictable or recognizable patterns, that seemed apparent to me, after charting all I knew about, both my husband's genealogy, and my families histories, and marriages, and ended a good marriage, in hopes that my children would have better ones. Whether that calculated risk, flying in the face of all divorce statistics, was a great idea, or just an exercise in futility, will yet, remain to be seen, but worth that old college try.  My husband, of the day, thought that I was treating our marriage, like we were two lab rats in a maze, dissecting us, and laying us out on a chart to analyse, acting as if there were not feelings involve . . . newsflash, mine feelings had been gone 5 years earlier, the Chinese torture marriage, nothing offensive, but like a drip of water in the same spot for 15 years . . . I wanted more, for me, for him, and for our four children!

We need healthy role models, and that is one thing, I really think, President Obama and Vice President Biden, seem to do well, is married and family life, thanks.  NO, marriage is perfect, I realize, that my husband, was probably the best man for me, given my age of marriage, my idealism, and my search for the perfect marriage, or at least one that fulfilled, my emotional needs.  I am not the material girl, but I am the emotional high maintenance woman, I demand, a man's attention, not often, but I want to feel married, if I am married, and not more lonely married, than I would be single.  That is a requirement, have your space, hour man cave, give me mine, but damn-it,when we are together, I fucking want 100% attention, period, that is as easy as it gets, I am not needed, in fact, 25 years of rolling by myself, should tell you that, but if I am going to waste my time getting married, I want to be married, not just a fuck buddy, not your maid, not someone you pick up and have a relationship with at your convenience.  Okay, that said and done, back to domestic violence and crimes against, both women and men, but generally give the size, strength and income differences, plus the vulnerability a baby, or children add to a woman's life, not that men don't love their children, there is a muscle advantage.

Men, I Am Taking You Where You Are At . . . Evolution, Men were Hunters, Women were Gatherers--You Face the Beast; Creationist, God Made You the Head of the Woman, Because, You Are Usually a Head Taller Than a Woman, There is a Responsibility, By Nature, to be a Protector, Not an Abuser!

Sad to say, this is still a man's world, and that is coming from a bad ass con law chick, who has beat men in school, in court, in the legislature, in blogging, verbally, mentally, skillfully, but, that doesn't do anything more than piss the male patriarchal system of predominantly male run cop shops, prosecutor offices, and court rooms, with women making up to 51% of law school populations; however, after law school, women are driven to the back rooms, the colleges, their homes, or they have to do as Shakespeare's Lady MacBeth, and un-sex herself, to satisfy her ambitious side, selling her motherhood soul . . . or be relegated to part-time work or no time work, and childbirth, child care, and home care, whether you are an attorney, a doctor, teacher, nurse, or construction worker, you just get two jobs, rather than one, and you are fucking vulnerable, not only at home with your husband, but in the work force.  Money, truly is power, and we need understanding fathers, husbands, partners, protectors, providers, not abusers!

It was interesting this week, that both Apple & Facebook, in the high tech industry, recognizing female ingenuity, genius, brilliance, and as worthy as any man, actually, offered women, up to $4,000 per female, to take advantage of freezing her eggs, preserving them for later years, when childbearing it not so, easy, so the company, can get the most out of a woman's most productive, career years, and still give her the opportunity to participate in having a family, allowing up to four months, family leave time for both husband and wife, when a baby comes, or to a woman who is partner less, who just wants to take those frozen eggs out of storage, and have a baby, or pay a surrogate to have their biological baby for them.  On, MSNBC, the Melissa Harris-Perry Show, there was a panel discussion on this with 5 professional women, of all choices, family sizes, and options, including to not have families.  The jury is still out on whether this is a good idea, or exploitation of women by another name?   I don't have the answers, progressive for sure, but wise, not sure . . . you decide, each woman is different, and it should be, ultimately her decision, but thanks for the options, the mental gymnastics to figure it out, as if women didn't have enough decisions . . . sorry, sometimes the more options, the more confusing.

We Need a Male Revolution . . . Men Telling Other Men, No More and Actually Meaning It!

This last segment of the Law & Order, SVU, marathon, in the last case, with the soon to be ex-husband, breaking in, assaulting and raping his wife, then when she fought back, he set her on fire, Elliot, one of the main guys, working for the police department, actually, in the sex crime victim unit, was totally prejudicial toward, or in favor of the guy, cutting him all kinds of slack, giving him the benefit of every doubt, even working against his female partner, who made inferences, either to his own violent temper, knowing his wife, and him going through a divorce, or in her relationship professionally, trying to work out the differences between the way a man will see the situation and the way a woman will . . . and the program did a great job of making you side with the male detective, then the female, but it is always best to error on the side of safety . . . a man or woman is innocent, until proven guilty, but a trained professional should know that violence escalates, when the victim is trying to get away from the abuser, it doesn't get better, it gets worse, and may end up in death, that is the most vulnerable time, believe her, when there is evidence, that he is getting more and more violent!

The last scene of the segment, shows the woman, who has gone back and forth on her rape charges, knowing full well, that she is going to pay if she continues to say he raped her, is seen after being set on fire by her husband, running down the street, flames on her clothes, burning the hell out of her, and finally laying in the hospital, burns, open blood wounds, hair burned off, not able to even put a sheet on her bleeding back, looking terrible, a beautiful woman, either no hair, or singed, and barely able to speak.  The female sex crime unit detective, asks her, if she really was raped, and she said yes.  The doctor, doesn't think she will survive, the shock to the body too much, you see the two detectives, female just shaking her head, as they leave the burn unit, and the water above her, is turned on to treat her burning flesh with cold water, as she lays there screaming.  Attorneys, write these crime shows, many based on their cases, with different names, and what not, but, true, in all their real facts . . . the husband, eventually is caught, will be tried for murder, and doesn't get his daughter anyway, is is worth it?  The entire family is destroyed.

A Parade of the Horribles, From the Three Shows I Could Stand to Watch, And from My Own Cases, Or Cases I was Involved With, Over Domestic Violence, Later, Over Victim Assistance, Both Statewide

At the very most basic level, domestic violence, sexual assault, rape, and dating violence is about power and control, not that may be related to sex, by way of access to sex with the victim, or entitlement to access to sex, or it may not be related to sex at all, it may be a hatred for women, a power trip, we do it because we can, we are physically stronger, and they are right, there is not a whole lot, while in the situation, a woman can do about it, best thing, is to break their fantasy of fear or scaring you, making them feel that power and control over you, but men, by fact, nature, size, strength, muscle mass, agility, can take advantage of women, even women larger than themselves, Dragnet, only the facts man . . . in my experience, the men who are abusers, are charming, social, many handsome, well liked, manipulative, and have all their friends, families and co-workers fooled into thinking they are the pillars of society, often volunteering, to make it appear, that the man would never abuse the woman, his wife, or other wise . . . that is all part of the game of gaining the power and control over their selected victims.  In every case, there is a period of isolation, where the couple appears to be greatly in love, usually with a fast romance, because lover boy or girl, can't sustain the charade for long, pushing for marriage, living together, or a move, isolating the victim is the first step in the power and control trip over the victim, giving them access, without anyone knowing . . . or they make the family, friends, or acquaintances so uncomfortable around the couple by acting out, that people generally just stop hanging out with them.

Once the abuse starts, and the guy or the abuser, has established himself, as the great guy, they start the character assassination, that the woman is crazy, menopausal, hysterical, has a social phobia . . . that is why she chooses, not to be around other people, so the guy is the families go to guy for all family needs, messages, and appearances.  It never failed, that once the woman contacted my, as an assistant attorney general, or as staff attorney for the Utah Prosecution Council, working on domestic violence, almost exclusively for a year, and then expanding to more issues, over community programs, with domestic violence being part of victim's assistance, the man, inevitably, would some how, learn that she had called me for assistance, and he would call me, and assure me, she was completely insane, and that she needed help, or psychotropic drugs, and he would air her dirty laundary, and he was always the patient loving husband, long suffering, gentle, kind, and understanding of this poor crazy wife's condition.  I would always listen, to get a handle on what the woman was dealing with, and what his game was . . . and usually, he was up to no good.

TV SCENARIO #1, THE CHARMING ABUSER, TURNED MURDERER

In the first show, I got in on a little late, but, the very good looking husband, came running in the room, because his son from his first marriage, with wife number one, a no show, was getting a court order to stop the detectives, from interviewing his son, about the murder of his second wife, and the child was the only witness.  Allegedly, the husband, was at a real estate meeting with 500 of his colleagues that all thought the world of him, successful, and of course, nobody knew his wife.  But one guy in his office, was a frequent flyer at the strip club down the street, and happened to see a woman that played a housewife stripper, that turned the men on, but he told the husband, that he wanted him to come to the club, because the women, looked just like his wife, this was a few days before the murder.  

The detectives, found out that the second wife had been abused, a neighbor reported seeing bruises, and her looking over her shoulder, just to wave at this man, while he was in the yard, terrorized by the fact that her husband might see her waving to another man, and beat her.  The neighbor also reported that the night his first wife, disappeared there was a van, and someone was carrying out garbage bags, thinking that woman might be dead as well, but later finding out that some woman's group, helped the first wife escape the abuse, that was escalating to the point of death, him or her, I got there with out a hit . . . so I understand. Eventually, after court order to control the child from meeting with detectives, or the testifying against the father in the trial, the kid, seeing his mother, after years, showing up to testify, with the hopes of seeing her son, and getting him away from his abusive father, can't testify on the stand, but as his father through eye contact, threatens the kids, who sees his mother sitting there, walks up to him, and in passing, blurts out in court, you killed Kim . . . the second wife.

Most women will be severely abused 8 or 9 times, before they will leave the marriage, no matter how serious the episode is, often, getting to the point where the victim, knows, that it is literally, him or her, or the kids are in danger, and she will then get a restraining order, which is not worth the paper it is written on, get a domestic violence protective order, cops will enforce that, it is civil, but can carry threat of incarceration or contempt of court if violated, then jail time.  Once this is in place, as it was in the case of the woman being raped and then burned, the woman, is at the most risk, because the law has stepped in and stopped the abuser from the power and control over the victim and they go nuts, often using the fact that they are losing their children, a reality, to violate the order, and either kidnap the child, or kill the mother, or other parent, who is threatening to leave them permanently.

SCENARIO #2 . . . PERP USING THE SYSTEM TO FURTHER THE ABUSE

Once a protective order is in place, the abuser, will with the aid of the system, often drag the victim into court, over and over again, as part of the power and control over her, threatening through eye contact, again, reaching for anything he knows will hurt the victim, like her alcohol use, during a pregnancy, knowing that just his presence, makes her crazy, and drink more, leading to more court, to control her through the system, again exerting insider knowledge about a victim to gain back lost control.  This case is incredibly sticky, and complicated, and only real facts could have come up with this set of facts, fact is stranger than fiction.  So, initially, the wife and husband, who are separated, own a bar together.  He comes to see her close, she breaks out a bottle of wine, they drink, he knows she is pregnant, tells her to stop drinking, she is damaging his child . . . power and control . . . not concern, or he wouldn't have, later, beats her, and rapes her.  Only the concerned husband, as long as he can hurt the wife.

Initially, she refuses to say it is him who rapes her, and just wants to be left alone.  The special victim's unit, promises her, they can protect her.  She has to show up for a protective order hearing, and he brings a pro-life attorney, who manages to get the case heard in front of a pro-life judge.  The order is granted, but the judge beats her up over the child.  Outside, her husband begs her not to have an abortion.  She listens to him, like most abused wives, and decides not to abort the child.  He then, serves her with papers, stating, that now that she is going forward with the child, she needs to be incarcerated, due to her drinking problems! Which is a big concern for the cops, because they find out, that witnesses, the husband is calling, actually know of the drinking since teen years, and that she has a child, who, unknown to her, already has fetal alcohol syndrome.  Due to the shock, she is with the cop, who visits her, and realizes that she has rum in her cola can, and arrests her for contempt of court orders to stay off alcohol.  And she is looking at spending her whole pregnancy in jail, to force her to follow the court, in an order, that is not against the law, alcohol, that is, but the state, has an interest in the best interest of the child; therefore, they can incarcerate her to protect the child, she is choosing to have . . . I was very bothered that she would not stop drinking, and that the court would incarcerate her for something that is legal, and I know what fetal alcohol can do to a fetus . . . complex, legally as you can get, scream!

The jury, and rightly so, finds her not guilty, of contempt of court, for ordering her, to refrain from drinking, because it is legal.  She did, however, get a conscience, once she, learned for the first time, that her first child had the syndrome, she went to visit her, and stopped drinking . . . the better way.  The state, in family law, even in protecting children and looking out for their best interest, is to do it by the least intrusive means, counseling, encouraging, education, etc.  She dumps the abusive husband, who pleads to the lesser crime of sexual assault, rather than rape, and basically gets a slap on the wrist, and walks . . . she suffered systemic abuse, which is so common, re-victimizing the victim!  I already talked about the rape and burn case, but terrible cases.

CASES I WAS EXPOSED TO OR INVOLVED WITH

I was more of an ivy tower attorney, did training, writing manuals, legislation, coordinating community responses, working with various agencies, representing the Prosecution Council, the Attorney Generals Office, working with basically everyone, in particular cops and doctors.  I would often talk to victims and send them to the right agency, tell them what type of protective order to get, and see that they got to where they needed to go, was a listening ear, to all aspects of domestic and dating violence.  But, a friend of mine, who graduated from Bountiful High, with me, back in 1973, was married to a cop, who happened to mention my name, and he was a big time abuser, and all his cop friends protected him, laughed at her, and ridiculed her for making their buddy look bad; I guess you could say, I was the equalizer when it came to cops, and prosecutors . . . I would use the heavy hand of the AGs office to even the score a bit, and reprimand the cops, reminding them, it was actually their job to arrest their so, called, buddy!

I was more a system firefighter, putting out fires, dealing with domestic violence, threatening the powers that be, that they had better, not only follow the law, but enforce it, and stop siding with the abusers, and intimidating if, not totally, re-victimizing the abused or victim.  But, this was a case in Heber City, rich, former football star. and I get a call from his girlfriend, live in common law wife, who he had just bloodied her lip, and slammed her foot in the door, took one of her negligees, cut it in small pieces, masturbated on it, and said, that is what he was going to do to her, take her up the canyon, kill her, cut her body in pieces, and masturbate all over her body!  Even my boyfriend of the time was terrified of this guy, was worried about me, but was more worried about himself, and this guy, after I showed up in court, and we got a protective order, and an ankle bracelet on him, and he could not get within 500 feet of her, actually came and threatened me, and the Chief Deputy Attorney General, actually told me I better be careful, seeing I threatened and dared him to try it, and I would have his ass in prison so fast, that his head would spin . . . the sheriff would duck out of town events if I was there . . . I was basically, and maybe, foolishly, fearless!

Generally, I was only sent in if the cops would not comply with the law, and I would go enforce the law against the system, who was protecting the perp!  They didn't like me much, still don't. LOL!  I don't scare too easy . . . they have tried to exert systemic violence, power and control over me, and most cops and prosecutors, judges, don't give a rat's ass, they believe I can fend for myself . . . and I can, but, hey, an army of all levels of cops, local, state, and federal, with prosecutors and judges . . . a fair fight would be much appreciated, and I don't favor you substituting me out with T&A chicks, half my size and half my intellect!  LOL!  But have at 'em boys . . . boys will be boyz, hopefully, boyz to men, some day over the rainbow, Mr. OZ!

THE LOVELY NAKED WIFE, FORCED TO WEAR A DOG COLLAR, AND HER HUSBAND RIDING ON HER BACK IN FRONT OF THE KIDS--OHIO!

THE WOMAN WHO WAS ATTACKED AT HER WORK, WHEN HER HUSBAND TURNED OFF THE LIGHTS, AND ATTACKED HER WITH A BOX CUTTING KNIFE, 400 STITCHES WORTH . . . NICE!

I am sure, that if I thought about it, and dusted off, years of time between my work, back in 1994 to 1997, I could think of a whole lot more stories, but I think you get the point.  Just a few tips . . .

• alcohol is generally involved in the occasional abuser . . . so watch the drinking
• Super Bowl Sunday is the highest day for domestic violence calls and reports . . . make your wife and kids more important than a fucking football game, come on!
• recognize when you are exerting power and control over your partner, isolating her from friends and family, and limiting her access to her freedom and liberty
• buddies don't let buddies abuse . . . might be a nice play on the situation, jail, protective orders, and losing your wife and kids, is not cool, stop them, tell them, help them
• if you come from an abusive family, get counseling, maybe before you try for a wife and kids . . . the cycle of abuse, goes generation to generation, only multiplies, be a responsible citizen, stop the cancer, be better than your father, for God sake!
• knowing you are lost is the first step, get counseling, anger management, prevention, education, and help is the best way, you have to know you are lost, to find yourself
• read up on the issue, it is UGLY!
• and most of all, remember to love your wife, as yourself . . . church can't help either!

NO MORE!  WE ARE BETTER THAN THIS AMERICA!

Boxing in the 1920s

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Boxing in the 1920s was an exceptionally popular international sport. Many fights during this era, some 20 years away or so from the television era, were social events with many thousands in attendance, both men and women.

World Heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey dominated the sport through much of the decade. He won the title in 1919, keeping it until 1926. He lost the title to Gene Tunney in 1926, but many of his fights were historic, such as his defenses against Georges Carpentier, Luis Firpo and Tom Gibbons, a fight which almost bankrupted the town of Shelby, Montana. His 1927 rematch against Tunney became known in boxing history as The Long Count Fight. Dempsey became a household name, and he dated and married Hollywood actresses. He was, along with Babe Ruth, Red Grange, Bill Tilden and Bobby Jones, one of the so-called Big Five of sports. Other important boxers included Benny Lynch (from West Scotland). Panama Al Brown was the first Hispanic to become a world champion.

Because airlines lacked the structured schedules of the modern days, many boxers had to make their way to important fights by train.

In 1921, the National Boxing Association was formed. It was the predecessor of what is known now as the WBA. Tex Rickard was the leading promoter of the day, and he has been compared to P.T. Barnum and Don King.

Old School Boxing vs. New School Boxing

Manager, Jack Kearns, had been a former boxer, where he gained a reputation, before the sport was legal or regulated by the National Boxing Association, that was just formed two years before the Dempsey, Gibbons fight in Shelby, Montana . . . and I am sure that the kinks were not worked out, nor the mob influence in all illegal activities, in a sport that drew the attention of presidents, kings, movie stars, politicians, and big time crowds, starting with the George Carpentier v. Jack Dempsey, fight held, in 1921, jacking up high expectations for crowds and a larger purse . . . combine that with what was happening in Shelby, roughly at the same time, a booming oil, gas and new irrigation, positioned right on the route, connecting the east and west coast, with ambitious Johnson father and son, seeing the speculation of holding a world championship boxing match, a publicity stunt at first, using the negotiation time to draw visitors, potential residents, and future home owners, to the family land developments, with fortunes to be made.  Jack Kearns was known as the master manipulator, and it looks like the hones, somewhat naive, yet savvy businessmen of the Toole County American Legion Chapter, were just using the match to put Shelby on the map, and they were shocked, after not hearing a response from Kearns, when he actually sent them a letter accepting the terms of the fight, a $200,000 purse, $100,000 more than the exhibition fights that Dempsey had been doing.

This was a transitional point in the history of boxing, with big brother, Mike Gibbons,  having started his career, as Kearns, had, in 1908, a good 13 years before, the first boxing organization was formed, with his career, actually coming to a close, in 1922, just one year, after the formation of an association, before the Dempsey fight even came on the radar screen, and probably with the idea that his little brother was the last person that would be picked to fight Dempsey . . . not an unknown boxer, and not Shelby businessman's first choice, but due to not being in the heavyweight classification, and with deteriorating vision, it had to have hurt, to see, probably, the last person on the planet or in the boxing world, his little brother, getting a swing at the King, Dempsey, the money, the press, the world's attention, the crowds, all, maybe too much for the more seasoned older brother, who, for sure was part of the boxing world, and must have known Kearns and Dempsey, probably personally, a small world in those days, with the Shelby boys, hitting the train, back and forth between, New York and Chicago, like it was nothing, and it was . . .

Dempsey, The Black Horse, Anti-Hero of Boxing Had Nothing to Lose

The thing that is interesting, is the fact that at first, this was just a stunt, a business ploy, an advertisement perk, until Kearns, actually, long after the expected offer, was considered on the table, actually, sent a letter that made the fight, go from merely a dream, or even a joke, to becoming a reality.  Of course, most ambitious men, coming out of the Guilded Era, where the industrialist who made fortunes in Montana, literally raping the land, exploiting the work force, leaving towns in Montana depleted of their natural resources, with the greater part of the money going back east, yet, still controlling Montana politics, these small town businessmen, might have been trying to put Montana on the map, for something other than the used and abused . . . these honest men, in all their lives, dealing in good faith with a handshake, the Montana way, never saw the likes of Kearns, Dempsey, the press, Mike Gibbons, the railroad, and IRS . . . with an All American football player, attorney from Lewiston, actually threatening Kearns, on some court order by a judge, that if he didn't make good on contract terms with the press, they were going in the back alley, and see who walked out . . . 

I am sure the rumor mills, were spinning and that is why the crowd, mostly made up of ranchers and farmers who could not afford the $50.00 tickets, that by today's standards, would be between $250 to $550, painted by the press, as crashing the gates, when in reality, they were very aware of what Dempsey, booing him and his manager, favoring Gibbons, who was Shelby friendly, and coming to fill the empty arena, that had been, sold out to capacity, it sounded like by the number of ticket sales, and the special trains scheduled . . . I am sure the Great Northern Railroad, didn't just pull that number out of their asses, that was the number of trains, it would have taken to get that amount of ticket purchasers to the fight!  The locals may just have been there as a lynch mob, there to make good on their football stars threat to Kearns . . . and defend the honor or their friends who were obviously getting fucked!  Had everything been above board, there would have been no need for Kearns and Dempsey to leave town, so fast after the fight, with Dempsey, not even having time to shower and change clothes, as I recall, from the writings on the subject, smacks of a criminal enterprise, a planned execution of the town, with an association of the gang who reigned before the boxing association was formed, maybe a power play that had nothing to do with Shelby, a fight for mob rule, without the regulations and rules of an organized effort, moving in on mafia money making, laundering, back room bookie deals, bets on Dempsey taking out Gibbons in the first 2 rounds, a knockout, throwing the fight, so to say . . . SHELBY CAUGHT IN A TRAP!

Kearns, The Cat, Playing With the Mice, His Game, His Rules!

Having seen the same dynamics, not only in my law practice, and in the heist of my son's bands music, you have the gifted, fresh, talent, who are willing to enter the ring of law, the courts, the music industry, just for the right and opportunity of playing in the big leagues, much like Tommy Gibbons, who was willing to fight free, just to get a chance to take out the King, riding on that publicity, name making event, to make his mark on the world of boxing . . . a chance his big brother was denied, and would have given his eye teeth for . . . Mike was owned by the press, who called over half of his matches, being bought and sold by them, was he paid off, threatened, or coerced into turning on little brother, he, supposedly love, trained . . . nobody would suspect fowl play, as with my sister, and her son, jealous, best friend and closest cousin of bass guitarist, of rising stars of Old School Parallax, God's Revolver & Maraloka . . . sister, Shelley had connections, her last son was fathered by the music mixer, Jimmy Robinson, who is named on the Doors, early albums, a Hollywood insider, with direct connections to the music industry, the perfect storm here two, as with the Division of Securities, theft of millions if not billions, over jealousy, envy, money, connections, access to industries, fields, leaders, with interests in fucking you, and helping the sister, who was an insider, long before you came on the scene . . . the criminal enterprise, the patterns, the players, the connections are just all too familiar to me!

What even complicates the situation more, is the honesty of the opposing side, they not only can't imagine, cheating to win, but the thought of breaching a contract, a signed, agreed upon, in writing, even one that was a tough on to meet, like the Montana Governor, Joe Dixon, said, in response to the Johnson, Molumby, contingency running everything past the leaders of the state, when they heard of the $200,000, not to mention the new amount, of $300,000, said, that is more money than the whole state of Montana has . . . but, as men of their word, and good as gold, never suspecting what they were stepping into at that time, almost died, in a break neck trip in a small plane, going around the state, collecting money from county chapters of the American Legion, who were concerned about the reputation of the state, their fellow Legionaries, and wanted to help, with Kearns, manipulating Molumby, in Chicago, to getting the last installment of money, not after the gate came in, but 2 fucking days before the fight, before he would say it was on . . . I have taken the train from Whitefish to Chicago, and Washington, D.C., and it is about 2 days to Chi-town, and three to D.C., so with that timeline, there was not time for ticket purchasers, to even make the trip, with Kearns and Dempsey, leading Shelby organizers on in private, yet, refusing to openly admit to the press that the fight was on!

Dirty, Dirty, Dirty, From Start to Finish!

Cheesy goodness in every bite . . . a line I stole from Pizza Hut, I want some hot stuff, and in my book, and hopefully, in the eyes of the world, the Shelby businessmen, are seen, not as stooges, but the forces of good, in this world, the promise keepers, the honest, the righteous if you will, those motivated by pure reasons, to benefit, not only themselves, but a whole new town, the railroad, the state, the American Legions, and bring talent, credibility, work, industry, building, homes, banks, schools, and all that makes a town in the west thrive . . . too bad, they faced all that was corrupt, bad, devious, crooked, liars, thieves, and to what extent, to even stealing the film proceeds with Shelby boys, getting to see it only once, in Chicago!  To the pure in heart with clean hands, those who's word is good on a handshake, they, can't even imagine people like this, which even makes the situation worse, and exacerbates the exploitation of the unsuspecting, the believers, the honest, the workers, willing to earn their glory, their fame, wanting credit, yet having every once of work, pay, rewards, notoriety, not only stolen, but with the evil forces at work, not stopping until they literally, grind your face in the dirt, bringing the good, down to their level . . . good and evil can't co-exist in the same sphere!

It takes one to know one, as the old saying goes, it has been almost 100 years since the fight in Shelby, every account is complicit in the character assassination of the town, emphasizing the follies, that appear to be the fault of the town, with youngsters in this town, completely unaware, that history was made here, by their proud, good, ancestors, hidden, as if the criminals who did this to them . . . with the criminals, taking the place of the good, the right, the honest, even in plain view, absconding with the proceeds and profits of the fight, taking when they never earned anything, and likely fixed the fight, to capitalize on the bets, the bookies, robbing the books back home, bringing home the bacon, on ever aspect of the fight, the boys in Shelby took the fall for, getting their asses kicked on lumber, ticket sales, lawsuits, IRS charges, but making good on every deal they ever agreed to, now that is COOL!
