go eat a cm sandwich

As I recall, you had no childhood innocence, you were guilty the moment you got popped out. Also, I have no memories of you ever playing in the snow, that is, other than me pushing you into the dirty snow bank or trying to hit your ear with an ice ball. Ahh, memories.

I also now hate the snow.

I hate the wet feet and clothes.

I hate shoveling and cleaning the cars because of the wet clothes and feet.

I can’t stand people saying Oh, but it looks so pretty.

I don’t understand how people lives in places where winter means snow all the time.

But here in NYC it only comes a few times a season, so when peolple say move to a warmer climate my answer would be because how can I appreciate the warm weather better because of the winter. Any BTW I hate it when it is hot and muggy so I have a small window of weather comfort.

Oh I might add…4 wheel drive ROCKS!!!

i go yesterday morning to clean the driveway and car and 2 minutes after i finish a garbage truck with a plow comes along and puts all back into place. do they think about this when they clean the streets that people go to get their cars out and they buried them right back in. im talking about street parked cars as well. i like the snow just not in the city snow is really fun when your skiing. its nice the first day here then it turns to ice and dirty slush. and whats with people cleaning the front of their homes but just enough for them to get out arent they responsible for the sidewalk. i could keep going but im just going to get mad.

Some people do enjoy the weather. I, can’t remember a time when I really did. Unless one wants to truly let go and throw all caution to the wind.

I don’t like Winter this year. But that’s merely because the arthritis is getting worse. I hate getting old much more.

I did have a truly strange thing happen over the weekend. A letter that I sent to Senator Chuck Schumer elicited this response:

Dear Senator Anderson:

Thank you for contacting me and expressing your support for increasing access and coverage in health care reform. I wholeheartedly agree, and am committed to health care reform that will enhance access to quality and affordable health care for every American.

Our country is facing a crisis in health care. The cost of health insurance is skyrocketing, and too many New York families are caught in the middle. Like you, I believe it is absolutely unacceptable that more than forty-six million Americans do not have health care coverage. Both the health of our citizens and the health of our nation are at stake, and we must act soon.

I also strongly support the establishment of a public health insurance option which would create a not-for-profit insurance plan, started by the government, which would compete on a level playing field with existing private health insurance plans. Because the public health insurance option would be not-for-profit, it would help to lower premiums and, therefore, exert downward pressure on the premiums of existing insurance plans. This change is pro-consumer because it adds competition to insurance markets, allowing New Yorkers and all Americans one more choice of affordable and comprehensive health insurance. In addition, I believe that no American should be denied coverage based on pre-existing conditions. In order to increase access and coverage, we must work to eliminate these kinds of barriers to medical treatment for those in need.

Too many Americans are either uninsured or underinsured and Congress must act soon to provide the necessary catalyst we need. The Senate is working to develop a strong bill that can help solve our current health crisis.

Thank you for contacting me about this important issue. Please do not hesitate to contact me again if I can ever be of assistance to you on this, or any other matter.

Sincerely,

Charles E. Schumer

United States Senator

So, Senator Schumer, when do I get sworn in as the third Senator from Brooklyn?

This sort of thing is done very simply by a mail merge in MS Word. However, incompetency is rewarded and someone still has their job. I could do their job in a heartbeat. But no! No doubt political patronage, glad handing and connections of that sort allowed this individual to obtain a weekly paycheck and support themselves quite nicely. I have all those office skills and more. Whatever happened to paying attention detail and proofreading letters and emails before they go out. Imagine a scenario where a mistake such as this is made and perhaps thousands of constituents received information and government documents meant for Mr. Schumers fellow Senators? Chuckie can’t even control his mouth on an airplane much less his correspondence. Of course, thankfully he is not guilty of more outrageous peccadilloes like being caught in a mens room at a Denver Airport doing unimaginable things with the toilet paper roll or some other such body or device.

Put plastic bags in your boots. lol

Can’t beat that South American weather!

Paul: Now that you’re a Senator, can you check into some federal funding to help Sheepshead Bay’s local news media source?

Slow down folks. There’s enough snow and ice, plus badly parked cars due to the snow. No need to add aggressive driving and speeding.

Well Ray, I’ll have to get back to you as soon as I form a committee, hold 3 sessions and decide upon the interior decorator for my office. If my staff deems that my available time allows it I will hold an internet town to decide this and other issues of the day. Look forward to a series of glossy printed newsletters to fill your mailbox.

Isn’t that what all of us politicians do?
