Reagan Walked Out on the Russians—Obama Walked Out on the American People
Nobody Knows
It was a time when a financial and fiscal crisis brought the two parties together to compromise on tough choices about taxes and spending. In 1983, President Reagan and Speaker Tip O’Neil came together to compromise on Social Security, based on proposals from a commission led by Alan Greenspan.During the times and attitudes of the Cold War, Reagan took his biggest gamble with bipartisanship: Dealing with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev. Conservatives applauded when Reagan walked out of the 1986 Reykjavik summit over his refusal to give up his Strategic Defense Initiative. But those same conservatives also vociferously criticized Reagan for signing the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty a year later. Under the terms of the treaty, both the United States and the Soviet Union were to vastly reduce their nuclear and ballistic missiles.
Benedict McConnell
“The president has presented us with three choices: smoke and mirrors, tax hikes, or default. Republicans choose none of the above. I had hoped to do good, but I refuse to do harm. So Republicans will choose a path that actually reflects the will of the people, which is to do the responsible thing and ensure that the government doesn’t default on its obligations,” he said. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell
In blatant contradiction to the Constitution and intent for the separation of powers, Republican Senator Mitch McConnell has proposed solving the debt ceiling issue by handing over the power of the purse (specified under Section 1 Article 8 of the Constitution) over to the Office of the Presidency.
The Giant BlackEyed Pea-Brain of Barack
Nobody Cares
–that our President can’t stop looking down his nose and talking to all of us as if we are mere children to scold. It’s not just us, he treats anyone who disagrees with him like that. I don’t know who writes his little snobby sound bites, but I’d like to drop him right into the middle of a big batch of…skunk pudding, and tell him (or her?) to read something else besides kitchen recipes.
I didn’t like it when President Clinton wagged his finger in anger at the American people who pay his salary, and I certainly don’t like it when President Obama wags his finger at us, and gets mad when he doesn’t get his way. Something tells me I’m not alone in that.
But he sure does like to “dictate” what he wants, doesn’t he? Today, DADDY Obama said this:
“It’s time to pull off the Band-Aid and eat our peas.”
Let me get this straight: Obama has spent more money than all the past Presidents combined, and NOW he wants to fix it, by having us give him MORE money?
Who’s the big glutton here?
NOBODY SAYS: You stop giving all those big expensive parties for all your friends, taking all those expensive vacations, and giving away trillions to big unions, and Wall Street, and other countries like Greece (He just gave them another 780 BILLION for a bailout) and stop acting like the spoiled dictator child in diapers first, who likes to start expensive new wars to make himself feel important, and we’ll eat whatever we please Mr. President, because we pay YOU.
Oh…that just never sank in, did it?
Today, it was reported that Michelle Obama had a big hamburger with French fries, which contained enough calories to float a fat friggin flotilla—setting another fine example of how the elite can do whatever they want, while telling the rest of us to sacrifice.
(Manage your own wife first, Barak).
Obama acts as if HE makes the final decision on the debt ceiling question. But according to Ron Paul, a balanced budget amendment doesn’t even require the signature of the Presidents. It simply needs Congress to stand up.
Bonehead and Obama have been coming out all day, one saying “I will not raise taxes,” and the other saying, “You WILL agree to raise taxes.” Rand Paul says this:
“What they’re talking about would disgust you. They’re plotting to raise the debt ceiling by 2.4 TRILLION dollars more now, with the promise of just a few cuts later. “
Meanwhile, Little Timmy Geithner keeps threatening economic Armageddon: “If they don’t act, then we face catastrophic damage to the American economy.” He says we will suffer…for a long time. It’s was a big, blatant, ugly threat.
NOBODY SAYS: Well Timmy, come to my neighborhood. You have already pretty much destroyed it, and it didn’t take you long. We’re already suffering. What…there’s more?
Master Pea maker Obama gets even more insidious:
Washington Post:
He flat-out rejected the idea of a short-term deal — 30, 60, 90 or even 180 days — on the debt ceiling by noting that “this is the United States of America, and we don’t manage our affairs in three-month increments.” (Hard not to hear parental echoes in that line; “That’s not the way we do things in this house….”)
NOBODY SAYS: Well, let’s see..since the democrats have been in power, they didn’t even pass a budget…and they’ve been in power since…2008…that’s over three years, a lot longer than 3 months. What were they waiting for? Can you say” Scapegoat?”
So, both parties will agree…cut the old people’s benefits. The Medicare, and Social Security, because those are both in the deep read anyway. And taxes will be raised…just not before the next election, where the REAL hurt will come in.
Obama stressed that “nobody’s looking to raise taxes right now.” Instead, he said, “what we have talked about is that starting in 2013 that we have gotten rid of some of these egregious loopholes that are benefiting corporate jet owners or oil companies at a time where they’re making billions of dollars of profits”
NOBODY SAYS: in Obama speak it really means what’s left of the private sector will be destroyed. Small businesses will go first. The ONLY way he can get his way is to make us all jealous of rich people. It’s an old communist ploy that works every time.
So, what will happen in the next few days? They will either come to a deal, which will be a farce, but they will both spin it as a good thing: or there will be no deal, and Obama will just raise the ceiling debt citing the 14th amendment, to save the “country” OR, the deal they sign will have spending cuts in trade for tax increases, but the spending cuts will never come.
That’s what the Democrats did to Reagan in 1986. That’s the way they work.
NOBODY WONDERS if Craig Smith is right: There is a planned strategy, and it’s called Inflatoccracy:
Inflatocracy is a form of government, Smith and Ponte explain, “in which deliberately debasing our money has become a primary tool of social engineering, drug-like mind manipulation, wealth redistribution, secret taxation, and political power.”
What we need now, is for enough of the Congress to stand up to the Black-eyed Pea-head in the executive office and say;
“Eat you own peas, pea-brain.”
Can We Blame Dick Cheney ONE MORE TIME?
Nobody’s Opinion
When you first watch this video, you might think that these guys are for real. Well, I’m here to observe that NOBODY could be that stupid. Comparing a Pinto to a Ferrari…even a five-year-old boy knows that’s a no-brainer. And Muslims are peaceful? No…these guys took the talking points of every single democratic pundit and literally threw up a short, but fun satire.
I need a bath.
Then again, the guy in the middle could be for real. They all look like virgins, so that would explain why they blame Bush for everything. I don’t know. I’m beginning to suspect that all liberals have a hormonal imbalance. What else explains a habit they have of parroting everything they see or hear on TV?
Wait…did I just dish half the human race? Sorry.
I’m having trouble being serous today.
Nobody Gets Email: Funeral Campaign Donations
Nobody Gets Email
Please remember readers, that when I post emails, the stuff in them could be true, or false. Also remember that I’m not posting them for any kind of journalistic reporting. I’m just posting emails that I get from my readers and friends,and ones that strike a chord or make me think.
Kinda like the Tarot cards. They might be all BS, but you have to admit, if you take what they say, and think about your life while someone is reading the cards to you, you can arrange them to solve most any problem, and even come up with solutions. Sort of like a best friend making you think of all the possibilities.
How did I get on Tarot cards? (Don’t ask)
What I really liked about this email, is —not only was it funny, I thought it might be a good way to raise money for candidates opposing Obama. Smething tells me that with Obamacare, this fundraising method might catch on really fast!
(Thanks to Tom Bebee)
One Small Step for Obama: One BIG LOSS for Mankind

Nobody Remembers
—the first man on the moon—Neil Armstrong, Walter Cronkite, and the saying, “This is one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” It’s part of our American soul.
On that July day in 1969, when Neil took that first step, America was proud, and had no doubt that we were the best of humanity. Space was the final frontier, and we wanted to find it.
Today was one of the saddest days of our country. The last Shuttle Atlantis, was launched with, no doubt, thousands of heartfelt tears, from the people who devoted their lives to each and every detail of our American space program.
On the news…they acted as if it was just another day.
Obama seems to have this idea that America just needs to step aside and let the other countries shine. Hillary is reaching out to help the Muslims realize their greatness. Obama reaches out to Brazil and gives them not only tax payer money to buy their oil, but permission to drill in fields that he made off base for American companies. Just the fact that companies need “permission” should be a red flag to tyranny.
It’s obvious: Our leaders WANT us on the backburner. They are shutting down America, and turning off the lights. At least, that’s what it feels like. Most of the older folks that grew up on movies like E.T, Star Trek, Star Wars, and my personal favorite , the old Dr. Who series with Tom Baker, cannot believe that we have gone from Apollo 13 to the Three Little Witches.
Haven’t you been noticing all the “witches” dominating the movies, and TV? What? Do they want us to go back to the dark ages? Instead of dreaming of becoming astronauts, kids will be sitting in their rooms casting spells and chanting to the Devil.
Great.
I have been reading lately about how machines will take over man someday soon…but tell me, can they program a machine to dream? For space was man’s dream. We used to worship Galileo, and now we worship….wait…we have no one to worship. Our sports stars are lame, our movie stars are wacko’s and our politicians are…well, I won’t go there.
Even Joni Mitchell told us we are stardust…so, why haven’t we gone back to the moon? We STILL have to do that don’t we? Nope, no money they say. Obama thinks the program is expendable. If we want to go into space, we will have to pay the Russians 50 million.
The 135 Shuttle missions brought us the International Space Station, and the Hubble. So what? Did America build a Space Station for Russia? In the end, Obama hands it over to them on a golden platter?
What is wrong with this picture?
This act alone, closing down one of our most important assets ranks right up there as a high crimes. Instead of talking about raising the debt limit we should be talking impeachment. He’s committed enough crimes.
Right. After Clinton, that will never happen ever again. They put the whole thing about sex when it should have been about Bill Clinton making sure that China got enough technology to be able to nuke us.
First President Clinton gives our technology to the Chinese, Now President Obama gives the Space station to the Russians.
So…like everything that happens, the question is: who is going to benefit from the closing of NASA?
Every single person who has stock in Richard Branson’s trips to space, and that new mega company will own all the new technological patents. No longer will any government be able to claim the patents or inventions, but you can bet that all the politicians will have generous stocks in the new private companies. It’s all about the money.
So, tell me…Tom Hanks…why do you love Obama again?How many shares are you in for? It’s one thing for the malls to close down..but when NASA goes, you can bet, we don’t have too many days left. To me, it’s the darkest of days. Our national pride…has been shut down like a cheap carnival ride.
It’s disgusting. Not one word from ANY politician. That alone should tell you what’s coming. The silence is almost..like a deep black hole.
This was one small step for Obama, but one BIG loss to mankind.
Rupert Murdoch: Running With the Bulls
Nobody Wonders—
And they willingly hand everything over to the government. Where’s the privacy?
On January 18, 2006, the U.S. Justice Department filed a motion to order Google to turn over a “multi-stage random sample of one million URL’s” from Google’s database and a computer file with, “the text of each search string entered onto Google’s search engine over a one-week period (absent any information identifying the person who entered such query). On March 18, 2006, a federal judge ruled that while Google must surrender 50,000 random URLs, the Department of Justice did not meet the necessary burden to force Google to disclose any search terms entered by its users.
While we all stammer with godlike admiration of the boy who invented FACEBOOK…a boy who literally stole an idea and made it bigger, one wonders…where are the rules?
Some can steal, and some can’t. Work WITH the government, and you are left alone.
The only rule that you have to know and instill in your children is that Big Brother is watching you…and all his many corporate friends. If you don’t know that now—
The “Dysfunctional” Defense of Casey Anthony
Nobody Wins
For those of you who have NOT been following the story of “mother of the year,” –the Casey Anthony trial, you will therefore not be upset that the jury found her not guilty of killing her 2-year-old child. Most everyone who followed the whole circus on TV are— at the moment, appalled and outraged, that in America, a woman who doesn’t even report her child missing for a whole month is going to go free. At the same time, little was made of a lady who had been grocery shopping while carrying her recently three-day-old dead baby in her arms. No mention what happened to her.
Oh, she was black….probably…just lost or depressed. She KNEW where her baby was.
At the same time this was happening, Roger Clemens, a MLB pitcher who lied under oath, might go to jail for over 30 years from doing something that only hurt himself. (with steroid use, physical speaking) So, how do we compare that to a woman who lied with every statement and who probably killed her child—and she goes free?
Well, there is a reason we were told: Casey was sexually abused. That’s why she lies. Poor dear, she had been so traumatized by sexual abuse that…she just couldn’t be responsible for that child. That was the defense, and it worked.
By the way, Oprah Winfrey was sexaully abused and it didn’t seem to keep her from being responsible. I’m just saying.
So—Why did the jury set her free? For the same reason O.J. Simpson got off….guilt and pity, and our politically correct liberal views that have permeated the society like a cancer. Pity the black man, for he is put down every day by the white man. O.J. got off because his lawyers took your mind off the crime, and put it on the cops that were out to get the black man. Pity for the young single mother, who was sexually abused by her father. Why, ANYONE would forget…or “misplace” a child if she had suffered by the hands of a cop…a cop who had sex with his daughter. Some would even “speculate” and say that little girl was his. Maybe Dad knows what happened and helped his daughter cover it up.
And let’s fact it…Dad LOOKED and acted like a man who would do such a thing. When he pulled his little “suicide” stunt, then it was a sure bet he had been guilty of something. What kind of father does that right in the middle of his daughter’s murder trial? According to some experts, a suicide fake is common among men who abuse women.
One of the jurors, despite the evidence pointing to Casey. —told it plain and simple: it was a dysfunctional family, therefore, they are not responsible for what they do. That’s how sick our society has become. We are willing to accept any crime, because the criminal had a “rough” life.
We have Presidents who lie to Grand Juries, bomb countries, kill innocent people without permission, evade taxes, and now, with ObamaCare, think nothing of sentencing 70 million people to early death. Our politicians ALWAYS go unpunished. How can we expect any justice out of our courts at all?
The good new is: People everywhere are outraged. But Nobody Wins, when a whole nation was forced, ( once again) to witness criminals going free. It doesn’t do much for the national morale.
God help us all when juries are filled with bleeding hearts, and lots of stupid people. Wait…our CONGRESS is filled with bleeding hearts and lots of stupid people.
We’d better not wait for God’s help.
Casey, will be back…with a book deal and a movie deal. She will go on to make big bucks and have another child,…. and so our natioanl dysfunctional life goes on.

Nobody Flashes On the 4th

Nobody Flashes
This is my FAVORITE holiday.
If you HAPPEN to be British, I bet your indulgence.
Now, because I have to go cook my grandmother’s german potato salad (which takes, 7 hours) I plan to keep up the great American tradition of waving flags, and wearing flag t-shirts, and flag hats, and flag earrings, and waking up tomorrow and watching the fireworks tomorrow night. I don’t even want to go through the current politic landscape for just a few more hours.
Your welcome! (LOL!)
Everyone have a great 4th! And I’ll be thinking of all of you tomorrow night when the music hits the piccolos!
The NEW Human Species
Nobody Wonders
Give a guy a degree and what does he do with it? Do good things to save humanity?
NO! They think humanity is a cesspool of rednecks, and idiots! They want to start over.
Some men want to redesign the whole world. Raymond Kurzweil and Vernor Vinge, two prominent nerd computer wizards have predicted the end of humanity as we know it:
“Within 30 years we will have the means to create superhuman intelligence. Shortly after, the human era will be ended.”
Great news! We don’t HAVE to pay off our debt! I’ve got over $320,000 credit left on my credit cards…where shall we go?
You would think both these guys would be very depressed about this stuff, but no. They think letting the computer take over human minds is a wonderful thing. Look what it’s done for Egypt!
To which Nobody notes: Does that mean you will allow the computer to plug into your head too, Mr. Wizards? The question is: will all the men who THINK they are superhuman let themselves be plugged into AT&T?
I hope so.
And even if the computer driven brain is not something to be desired…don’t worry, the computers will take over the humans because they will be just so much smarter than man. Somehow, someone should tell them, SOME man will mess their dreams all up, and it might be them!
And then you have the George Church’s of the world. George is fooling around with human DNA and proclaims that, unlike nature, where it take thousands, even millions of year to develop a new species, Church could do it with one shotgun blast of new genes. What good could possibly come of this?
Will they make a “blue” species of people to grab more welfare money? And what politician would pay Church to make them half woman and half man and then be able to reproduce with “itself”? Or even lay eggs?
Creating a new species will deem many problems. We will have to have new species rights of course. Anyone making fun of the new species will be sent to jail for at least ten years.
But, back to Weiner…if Wiener had been plugged into the “network” then every computer on the planet would have received a picture of his pride and joy, and somebody could have downloaded a nasty virus back to him, and saved us all from seeing any repeats of his anatomy in the future. Just think…no more Weiner photos!
As for developing new species…I’ve SEEN their ugly flowers. Don’t get me started on Monsanto.
It’s funny…the liberals are always screaming about how we need to protect mother nature before it’s too late, but they are the FIRST ones to muck it up. Hopefully,they will keep their DNA, computer brain experiments among themselves, and then one day, the real people can take over again, and put them all on the endangered list of; Circuit Breaker Elite Human Number One is NOT compatible with Man.
Sorry….but we WILL build you nice apartments in the inner cities, or send you all to the outback of Australia.
REAL people, do not discriminate, do we?
And in that case, I suggest nominating me to take care of all “new species” patents.
What?
Nobody Forgets the President
Nobody Remembers
Last week, it was “the economy stupid.” So of course, old Bubba Clinton had to come out and say,
“What I’d like to see them do is agree on the outlines of a 10-year plan and agree not to start either the revenue hikes or the spending cuts until we’ve got this recovery.”
Don’t you love all our President’s ? It’s always, “What I want, what I , I , I, I,..let’s do a twenty year program and we will all be out of office when the crap hits the fan…Ha, ha, ha….”
The current President came out and tried to save his own face in his big speech last week, by blaming the whole messy economy on Congress…who needed to give him more money, and just quit messing around. Oh, and he did not have to answer to any Constitutionality about bombing Libya…it was the right thing to do. As long as there were no men on the ground, it wasn’t a ‘war’.
Tell me, who buys this kind of rubbish? Tell that to the dead people.
Mark Halperin of NBC, had it right. He said after the speech that Obama acted just like a “dick.” Of course, he got “reprimanded” for calling the President a “dick,” but I wanted to kiss the guy.
If you have the attention span of a chiwawa, as most liberals do, you of course, thought Obama was correct about blaming the “other” side, never having remembered the trillions of dollars Obama has spent since he got the reins of power. And according to Greenspan :”There is no evidence that huge inflow of money into the system basically work.”
Any redneck off the street could have told you it wouldn’t. And we are suppose to believe that Greenspan, Benanke, Obama, Geithner, Bush, and Paulson…all really thought it would work?
If you believe that, then you believe that Mary Poppins is a pop tart.
The ‘stimulus” was never meant for ‘We the People,” but for all the campaign donors to Obama’s coffers. The banks…the banks overseas…GE…GM…all the politician’s favorite rich, and elites. So, nobody has a theory. If you believe that the corporations (and the elites who gather in not-so-secret meetings ) are now pretty much controlling most of our top politicians, in order to keep the powerful intact, they needed two things–
Universal Health Care, and Amnesty.
The corporations…needed those things to pass in order to compete in the global market. So they just made sure the token black guy passed it, which Obama was more than happy to do, so the conservatives would never get blamed. That’s the dirty little secret. The Rhinos all want these liberal country killing “ideas” too. It’s a global world to them, not American. In other words, there really is one ruling party. They just play good cop, bad cop—and it works.
So…will Obama get another term? Why have all his main guys have jumped ship? Stephanopoulos and Rahm Emanuel, got out early. And Hillary has already said she will not be around next year. And isn’t it funny, that right after that big speech where Obama took no blame on the economy, our own little Timmie Geithner is leaving.
He doesn’t want to be there when the final shoe drops. No matter how much sugar he puts on the toast, it’s still toast. And speaking of toast..
We will all miss Glenn Beck. Oh, I know he’s going on to bigger and better things, but it’s another subscription to many of us who are on strict budgets since we all believe now that social security will be gone, and we have to start saving every penny. Nobody Wonders if anyone else believes, besides me, after listening to his last show— that Glenn Beck, is selling knowledge. Yes, finally I see an example of how Alvin Toffler predicting that in the future of the earth, it would not be industry, but KNOWLEDGE that would be worth most.
If knowledge is a commodity and only the rich can afford it, then I suspect in the future you will be PAYING for that dictionary on your website.
I don’t know. It was a strange week, and everyone here in the middle of America is mowing their lawns, and putting up their flags, and getting ready for the Fourth of July. It’s the one time of the year, we can forget who is president.
And right now, I can’t think of a better idea .
Nobody Wants to Know: Where Are the Hover Cars?.
Nobody Knows…
Do I want to talk about Obama and his great, “We must get those nasty rich guys with corporate jets and TAX them before we have to cut the weatherman, and the food inspectors, and maybe not be able to give all those Mexicans student loans as I have promised.'” …speech?
NO! Nobody wants to talk about the very happy state I’m in because I have finally found a flying craft that I can afford! I have everything I need…a blower, a shower curtain,—duck tape., and a chair.
AND…since all the malls are now nothing but empty parking lots, I’ve got clearance for takeoff! All it needs is some yellow paint.
Tell me, why are not all the kids in our school system, not making these for science projects? And just think how it would work on the moon..and tell me, if this simple technology works with a simple chair, why in the world are we not developing cars that hover?
We must ask Obama. All he did today was blame the Republicans for not pushing HIS agenda through Congress. And then after the speech, all kinds of Congressmen came running out to the mikes saying, “Well, we’re staying through the July 4th holiday to work on this!!
Oh gee…what a better place to be on the 4th. In the Capitol, with primetime seats to one of the best fireworks in the nation.
They really suffer don’t they?
Well, I’m not letting them spoil my fun.
Nobody Cares About Tattoos
Nobody Cares
Tattoo: Just say the word to me, and I cringe. I would never in a million years want to let somebody drive nails and ink into my skin to permanently color it with something that I might be ashamed of at eighty, or even—next month. I could just imagine someone looking at my corpse and saying– “Check it out…she has a tattoo of a flower, a dragon…wait…here’s another one…looks like it says…JAW..what’s that? Just Add Water? What’s that mean? Crimmie…ugly old bitch.”
Nope, as fun as it looks when some of my girlfriends lift their ankles or necks, or whatever, to show me their latest wonderful fashion, I usually say, “That’s cool!” because who am I to judge?
Whatever makes you happy.
Look around you and you will see, there are many happy people with tattoos, especially in Hollywood. Once, only the criminals wore them, but now they are the fashion among the rich and famous.
And they come in as many shapes and meanings as you can imagine. Nordic, dragons, symbols, flowers, animals, and swastikas. Some people get carried away and tattoo their whole body, like Jesse James.
One guy went so far as to tattoo “No Fear” on his head, and so every time he went into a bar, someone decided to put fear right back into him. Nobody thinks he should have tattooed on his head, “No brains.” but then again, that’s why I’m a nobody.
Then there was a guy who tattooed “LETS FUCK” on his knuckles so when he would just put his knuckles together and give any girl he liked the message. Where am I getting this stuff? From a wonderful book called “Life at the Bottom,” which was written by a British Doctor named Theodore Dalrymple. He has a theory of how to spot “bad” guys right away. Look for the tattoos.
I first formulated my viral theory of criminality when I noticed that at least nine of ten white English prisoners are tattooed. more than three of four times the proportion the general population. This statistical association of crime with tattooing is stronger, I feel certain, than between crime and any other single factor, with the possible exception of smoking. Virtually all English criminals are smokers, a fact that sociologist have also unaccountably overlooked. When asked why they inflict these marks of Cain upon themselves, the tattooed cite pressure from their peers and boredom. Perhaps the pain of it reassures them they are alive: it hurts, therefore I am.–Dr. Dalrymple
Historically speaking, tattoos have been around since the caveman. Captain Cook’s naturalists noted the fashion on the Samoan…and they have always been a favorite of the military…which brings me to my story:
What, you KNEW there would be a story…didn’t you?
Right after my husband (my second) and I got married, we took my son (from another marriage) on vacation to the Great Smokey Mountains. Since my son was fourteen, every day was filled with bumper cars, video games, bumper cars…putt-putt, bumper cars…and I started to feel a bit left out. We only had enough money for THEM to go on the bumper cars. Yes,..even though I don’t mind watching others have fun, I had done a lifetime of that with my son before my new husband came along. I was ready for the woods. You know, hiking…and hiking…and maybe seeing a few bears, but no…I got more bumper cars. I had just gotten about too bored around the fourth day, when my new husband decided he wanted to get a tattoo. Like a good sailor he already had one on his bicep—an Eagle, with his nickname on it..BRU. If I had talked to the good doctor Dalrymple at the time, I would have been probably thinking…Ummmm… but off he went.
And came back out with a great big, flying eagle on his chest. And I, was hurt. Yes, there I was, married only a few days, and I was following around a boy and a man having the best time of their lives..buddies. There was no romance whatsoever. When he got back from the tattoo place the first time, I said, “HEY…you mean you didn’t put MY name anywhere?” if you had read his many love letters, you would said the same thing.
After a few hours of more bumper cars, he decided he would go back and get my name on his chest. BUT…and here’s the catch, he had a big, bad, red sunburn on his chest. His whole front was the color of a ripe tomato, but off he went. After a few hours, he came back to the hotel room, bragging about how he withstood the pain…just to prove, that EVEN though it was against every single fiber in his body, he did it.
What did he do?
It was I who decided what he had to do. “Have the Eagle holding a chain, at the end of the chain put a heart with my name in it. ”
Guilt is a wonderful thing. It can make a man go back to a tattoo shop and put a heart with his new wife’s name in it, while suffering the pain of needle on burnt skin.
Now ask me, do I feel guilty about it? FORCING the man to put my name on his tattoo?
Nope. I’d had a whole week of being the “go get this, go get that.” and deep inside I thought, maybe this guy doesn’t love me but the life I can bring to him.
Better be sure.
Later on in life he really wanted to put my whole face on his back…which I thought was really sick. I won on that account again. I’ll be damned if some guy in some morgue is going to be looking at my husband’s back someday and saying “Why in the WORLD would he put that creepy looking broad on his back?” As it is now, some morgue guy will look at his corpse, see the huge flying eagle with the heart and chain,, and say…”Wow…cool tattoo.”
I like the thought of an eagle carrying my name. It’s about as close to mortality as I’m ever going to get.
And what would the good Doctor say about that?
He would say: “That’s life at the bottom!”
