Did not get enough sleep, again, last night.  But, something seemed restful enough.  Was raring to go.  Wasn't as early as I'd like, yet earlier than yesterday.  Progress.

Ridgedale Library, 12pm to 5pm.
Watched 3 episodes of FBI: Most Wanted
  • I watch TV shows like this (and others like it) to enjoy the action and detective investigation story lines.  Most of the time these type of shows take their story line right out of the headlines, with just enough changes to keep it legal.
  • One of the episodes was about sex trafficking of children, and basic kidnapping.  Their "lesson" was very weak, if not actually pathetic.  I hope to find ways to review and correct these "lessons" TV shows pedal to the public.  Essentially, these networks are feeding the publics sickness right back to them, and are NOT being at all helpful, or meaningful!  I have every capacity of articulating exactly what I mean by that, ten fold!

Today, feeling much better than yesterday, re eyelid (stye, or infection).  Again, did not get enough sleep.  So, took the morning slower than usual.  Had to go to the Library today.  Four days staying at home has given me a significant amount of cabin fever.  Ridgedale Library, 2pm to 7:15pm

Last night I woke up about 2am and I felt some pain in my left eye.  I was able to lay down and sleep without feeling the pain.  However, every time I got up I could feel it, what turned out to be my eyelid.  I made an appointment with my Ophthalmologist.  In my continued office visits I've been learning more about my doctors and their office practice.  Most notably today, my ophthalmologist kept saying this "go in (this) room, and I will deal with you in a few minutes."

Again, not nearly enough sleep, but I feel okay.  I was up a little earlier than usual, but couldn't sleep.  Got started a bit earlier than usual, but took the morning slow for my own... let say sanity.  Left of Ridgedale library at about 11:43am.

Today is the Midterm Elections.  I voted!  However, again, I was not prepared by knowing who the candidates were.  By the way, my particular ballot had two sides to it, and the back or second side was full of candidates for local judges, and what not.  But, all of these races only had one person running.  So, unless a person fills their own candidate, no marking or voting was needed!

I can say this, without a very very very special circumstance, by NO means will I vote for a Republican.  Especially, in light of the Trump sickness and continued festering failure.  Having said that, I have a great deal of correction and scolding for the Democratic party.  For the record, no party has ever been worthy of my membership!

I signed a contract in 2020 (about June) with a law firm in New York, New York, to represent me in "their" suit against the Boy Scouts of America. The law firm with whom I signed a contract is Slater, Slater, and Schulman.  This includes all their associates.  Flatly, these people are all absolutely incompetent and sick.  I refer to them as sick in a very specific way, not in a whimsical or ignorant fashion.  Their primary, and I would say only concern is to make MONEY!  Someone else I know, that was, in his words "****" by a priest here in Minneapolis, Minnesota was awarded $300,000.00 and his lawyers received 30%.  My lawyers would get 40% for whatever award I received.  About 98% of the correspondence I received from Slater, Slater and Schulman was only focused on MONEY.  Nothing else!  This makes me sick!

My Video Comment:  (see video by ABC News/Nightline)
Video
"I was a victim, at the age of 13, in 1972.  I have been talking about my abuses for almost 40 years.  This guy sitting with the director of the documentary is weak to me!  He is NO leader to me.  All of this is Bovine Scat!  Weakness.  As a culture, America (and whoever around the world) is very good at pointing at the "problem", but pathetic at actually facing it with any attempt to change anything.  My "Scout Master" named John Baker was also the principal of my Jr High School, my father's boss, and someone with whom my father and I went fishing.  My father was a drunk and domestic abuser that NEVER changed.  No one in authority, responsibility and leadership proved worthy of my trust.  My sexual assault perpetrator was a Native American Navy Seal.  After the first and only time, I ran out of his house and never looked back!  I was given every reason to be out of control.  I was given every reason to become an addict, or as it was said in my day, a junkie. I never got into drinking, or drugs, or smoking, or even gambling.  I became an athlete in High School.  I was terrible in academics, but excelled in Waterpolo.  ABC News and Nightline is just another organization that using this kind of news to make money.  The people in this video are leading no real change here, no leadership, no genuine healing.  I know what that is.  I am here to say so much more before I leave this mortal coil."

Grimm TV Series: S1 E3 (Beeware)

"She'll sting you one day.
Oh, ever so gently,
so you hardly even feel it.
"Til you fall dead"

Wikipedia/Episode 3: "The station is abuzz as Nick and Hank are called to a case where an innocent flash mob results in a gruesome homicide. The homicide is ruled the result of anaphylactic shock, where someone was able to collect a significant amount of bee venom to inject as a weapon. Soon, another flash mob results in another homicide, also connected to the first person as they worked together. Nick and Monroe determine that Mellifers are behind it, and are seeking revenge against the Hexenbiests that closed their papermill. He is surprised to learn that the last intended victim is the Hexenbiest who attacked him in the hospital (Adalind). He and Hank go to protect her as bees swarm the apartment they're in. The Hexenbiest and the Mellifer queen behind the attacks fight in the basement, and the Mellifer tells Nick they were being silenced to try to protect him. He tells the queen to stand down, but she doesn't, so he shoots her. At the close of the episode, he thinks about how his role as a police officer and his role as a Grimm can be at odds sometimes."

Grimm TV Series: S1 E2 (Bears will be Bears)

"She looked in the window,
and then peeped through the keyhole;
seeing nobody in the house,
she lifted the latch."

Wikipedia/Episode 2: "After a case of breaking and entering has one of the intruders go missing, Nick and Hank talk to a mysterious family whose cultural background blurs the line of right and wrong. The family is, in actuality, a family of bear-like creatures who engage in a ceremonial rite of passage in which they hunt humans, who in this case are the two intruders. Nick convinces the father (Currie Graham) to help find the boys and save the family's prey. Meanwhile, Nick tasks Monroe with the safeguarding Aunt Marie (Kate Burton), who was almost killed the night prior by a hexenbiest (Claire Coffee). Monroe stops two people in the boiler room who were sent to kill Marie and rips off one of the arms of the attackers. As Monroe calls Nick to tell him, a Reaper assassin dressed as a priest attempts to kill Marie, only to be killed by her. However, she dies anyway of an apparent heart attack as a result of struggling with and killing him. Marie's last breath is used to tell Nick to find the bad ones and stop them. Nick moves the trailer, which holds all Grimm secrets, and grieves for Marie's passing as he begins his hunt."

Grimm TV Series: S01 E01 (Pilot)

"The Wolf thought to himself,
what a tender young creature.
What a nice plump mouthful..."
The Brothers Grimm, 1812

Wikipedia/Episode 1: "When a young college student is brutally murdered, Portland homicide detective Nick Burkhardt learns he is descended from hunters known as "Grimms," who have been tasked with protecting humanity from creatures thought to only exist in fairytales. As he struggles to hide his newfound calling and catch a killer, Nick becomes entrenched in a world that he has yet to understand and a conspiracy that will change his world forever."

Season 1, Episode 1  "Pilot"
  • Opens in front of a college dorm, where a young woman in running clothes and red hoodie (get it?!) begins her exercise run, in the woods.  She's listening to "Sweet Dreams are made of these..."
  • This young woman stops to look at a small figurine left on the running path.  She's then attacked by a wolf like human figure.
  • Nick comes walking out of a jewelry store with a ring, while Hank (partner/detective) takes photos of a woman.  Nick then begins to learn of his special abilities, seeing some people for who they really are!
  • Nick and Hank are called to investigate the young jogger and her unusual attacker.
  • A car and an silver Air Stream trailer travel down a Portland street.  A bald woman, driving the car & pulling this shiny trailer, drives past Nick's house, around the corner, and up his driveway.  This is Nick's Aunt Marie, walking with a cane, also a Grimm.  She walks up to Nick's house.
  • Nick & Hank continue to investigate, learning more about what the predator is not, and who the young female victim is.
  • Nick returns home, finds his Aunt Marie in his kitchen with Juliette, Nick's girlfriend and love. Marie says to Nick "We need to talk."  They go outside and Aunt Marie begins to tell Nick about their family legacy.  They get attacked by a "Reaper" (Reaper of the Grimm's), and Aunt Marie gets hurt, and Nick kills the attacker.  Aunt Marie tells Nick more.
  • First responders are all over the scene of the attack.  Nick starts talking to Hank, and Hank reassures Nick, and Juliette walks up to Nick & they check-in.  Nick leaves alone in the ambulance.
