To The First Lady- They Raped My Children

 

 

We were relaxing on You Tube Wednesday afternoon and Linda found this cover song John Lennon sang that was featured on his "Rock N Roll" album. It's one of her favorites, but this was the first time she's heard the finished version, not just song samples or demos of it. We had to laugh, the sound John makes at the beginning of the song is like what he does when Linda reads Gerald's stories to him and gets to the end of a chapter, or stops reading for the day, he loves the stories so much and wants her to read more. Here's the link to the song. We wondered why he did that, where the idea came from.

This also occurs in the middle of the song "Be Bop A Lula" Here's the link.

We assume these videos are still on line because they're promoting the album.

 

 

Thursday God sent his 54th letter to First Lady Laura Bush saying how disgusted He is with The Supreme Court for saying rape is not punishable by the death penalty.

He also sent a letter with it to politicians who agree with Him on this matter.

Linda got the results from her Woman's Way exam and everything is o.k.!

Secret Good Deeds

 

 

Sometimes the kindness of people in his youth fascinated Gerald, and that sometimes they didn't want people to know that they were doing good for them. One winter Gerald and his mother couldn't figure out how their kerosene was lasting so long. One day Gerald happened to be coming back through the woods behind his house after doing a favor for one of the summer cottages on the shore when he saw somebody behind his house. It was one of his neighbors from down the road. He was pouring a ten gallon can of kerosene into their drum. Gerald watched him do this, seal the drum back up, then head back to his house through the woods. That evening he told his mother "You know, I think Vaughn has been bringing kerosene over from his house every couple of days and putting it in our tank. That's why we have appeared to be using so little. But why is he being so secretive about it?"
Gerald's mother looked at him and grinned. "Some people have the greatest hearts," she told him, "they love to do things for people. But they simply don't like people making a big fuss about it, or some other people thinking they should be doing those things for them, too. And Vaughn's father still has issues with us about the well. He still swears it's on his property, though the city surveyer swears it's on ours. So probably he's doing what he's doing secretly so not to upset his father."
Gerald was quite sure this went on for most of the winter, even after snow began to fall, and he was wondering how his neighbor got through the snow in the woods without leaving tracks in the snow. Then the next summer he happened to be delivering some stuff to his neighbor from someone else and putting it in his garage. He happened to look up in the eaves and there was a very big pair of snowshoes! And Gerald figured out how his neighbor was accomplishing his good deed. But this is a lesson that Gerald has always valued, that sometimes it's more fun to do good deeds for people without them ever knowing you're doing them, or at least with you thinking they don't know you're doing them. Gerald always treasured his neighbors. He wishes today that neighbors were as helpful to each other as people were in those days. It would be a much better world!

Vista Still Problems!

 

 

This stupid Vista system is driving Gerald crazy! One of our good friends who is a computer whiz loves it. But the more we use it the more Gerald hates it. The other morning he was trying to rename some of his files in the magazine folder, something he does all the time without a problem. All of a sudden he would be about half way through renaming the file when the Vista system would shut off what he was doing, make a copy of the file, and put it up. After four or five times of this Gerald was getting very frustrated. Then he noticed that three files had the same code in front of them. He asked Linda what was going on, why she'd put in three files with the same name, and she said she hadn't. When she'd put them away they'd all had different names. And she never put a page number on anything, she left that to Gerald when the page was finished, so we'd know what ones were done. The expert might love Vista but us poor people that can barely use these computers can't stand it! And we wish very much Microsoft would just junk the whole thing and send out a free disc that would wipe the Vista system from your computers and put in something that would work! Because no matter what they say, Vista doesn't work!
