The world famous ghetto burger

This was not my first visit to Anne's snack shack. My first visit yielded me getting threatened with a knife to wait on the patio. But after much patience i found a new burger joint that offers a meal for two at a great price. One honking burger and a plate full of fries. Lord if it was not for the duct tape holding the building together she would have been out of business a long time ago. But after 35 years she is doing something right.

Where the magic happens

This is the famous cooktop at Anne's Snack shack. World famous for the ghetto burger that she produces.

Reality

The reality of how bad the economy has hit home... I cut off my cable and internet and I am now stealing internet from some unfortunate soul in my neighborhood. I was handed a 10% pay reduction at my job and I am now officially in deep shit. I have been struggling month to month lately but this blow is going to put me under. I am going to have to take in a roommate or rent out the house that I love more than anything to some strangers.

I was always told though to think of a house like a business. I guess it is now time to do so.

This is what I came home to a couple of weeks ago. Let me tell you how pissed off I was.. Even better was the response by the wonderful APD. read post about that.

Do I make a difference to anyone?

Since I have had time this year to sit around and think about random stupid things it always crosses my mind about the life that I have led. I wonder if I have made a difference in someone life.  I just wonder if I matter. If I touched someone and left a mark on civilization. Everyone needs reassurance sometime in their life and at this point in my life I do need it. I need reassurance to feel whole.. Yes I do.. Not so much reassurance but something letting me know that I did matter in this life. To more than one person outside my family. I was never really raised to help people other than myself I just took it upon myself to make sure I try to leave this world touching someone hoping that I have left it better or helped someone in a hard time. I just wonder if I am missed. 

In no way am I trying to reach out and get people to just contact me out of the blue from the past or anything. I just think it is amazing that we are all really independent. 

We cannot feel what pain feels like for someone else. 

We cannot know what someone else is really thinking. 

No one will ever know what something feels like to another person.

I do not think we will ever get the truth on some things from someone. 

In this day and age where information is possible to find within nanoseconds and an innovation called Google, as I sit here and try to describe what I am thinking and feeling right now to invoke the same feelings and thoughts in someone else, we are really no closer to bridging the gap then we where 2000 years ago. 

We are still our own islands. We can only guess what something like love feels compared to someone else. We can only guess what the pain feels like to be tired compared to someone else. We have nothing to really tie us to anyone else. 

I know that our past experiences are relative to our future experiences. What we have gone through will ultimately determine what we will put up with or which path we will be choosen when the same choice arrives in front of us again. 

I just wonder if there has been a difference made by me and what people will remember about me. 

Holiday Times are here....

Yes yes.. The holiday season is here and I have welcomed it this year even stronger than before. I setup my Christmas display. This year I am pushing 10,000 lights, 48 independently controlled light channels and so far 4 songs synchronized to music broadcast of my own low power FM station. I am working on a video once I get everything finalized.

Other than that I have some things brewing on the horizon that I am really worried about. I have to go over my finances and re-work things so that I can make things work out. Well, I need to go to bed it has been a long weekend. I did finish the kitchen minus painting the walls and putting the refrigerator back in there. So almost another project cleared off the list. I still have to work on the basement and get that out of the way but for the most part I am excited because I got my lights up and the kitchen put back together some what.

A little weird..

I have not posted much this year nor lately. I have been working on the Christmas lights and some personal issues. In the next few days I will have the lights done and I will give a full update on what has been going on lately. I will say this I ran into some old friends on Black Friday..
