World Gone Mad!?

[geordiecolin]

Thank You All! I'm forever grateful to all of you that have given my time here at home easier to handle.I have made a commitment to the American Heart Association in my wife's name. I'am considering moving to the EU and living in one of my brother's barge's? I truly do need a break from death. It drain's us like a vampire sucking the life from you.My oldest daughter will reside in my home in NY and I will become an expat. I guess.But again Thank You All for your condolence's. There are time's when other people's interaction is needed and wanted to overcome life's tragedies. Peace Out,Out Of The Mist! shewoff

I quite like the idea of living on a barge or houseboat. Which part of Europe will you be living and I presume that your brother will be close by? I understand that death and the impending death of someone very close can be draining. Motivation can be one of the biggest things impacted alongside feelings of regret-no matter if those feelings of regret are just you beating yourself up.
It must be nice to have two homes to go to on different sides of the globe?

I do believe one of the reasons he was in Europe was to settle his brothers estate.

Take comfort in the fact that wherever you travel or settle, your wife’s spirit will be able to be with you, free of worry. So make the most of our amazing world for both of you x

Holland,Geordiecolin That is where my brother lived the last year's of his life.It is no big deal you did not know.That is one of the reason's I'am tired of death. He was a great brother and a true world traveler. Unfortunately his size cost him his life in the long run.At 6'9" and 260 pounds my brother was an imposing man. He had many bad bike wreck's in his life and his hip's were gone.So he moved lock, stock and barrel to Holland . He had a very hard time with the new hip joint's and it became septic and he died from blood poisoning. So you see he may not be there in person his memories will always be with me. And yes it is nice at my age to have homes across the pond. But when you look at it. Taxes and upkeep,rentals my bro had need attention and that is why I will relocate to Amsterdam.Plus I like the place and people. And Thank You Steviedoo it is nice to know some of what I have posted was paid attention too. Again Thank You All! Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

Just a few lines about a problem that has reared its ugly head recently. I placed a bet on the recent PacMan VS The Trouble fight. I learned a long time ago to bet high or go home.So a $25,000 bet on PacMan to win. I have followed his career from start to present. As all of my phone in bets. I place with a long time parlor in Vegas that takes all of my action.And well,the rest is history shall we say? Now it has been a reasonable amount of time for a world renowned parlor to payoff its bets?

But as of this writing NADA! Now they have paid me off before much larger wins than the $100,000 I'am owed from the fight. Please anyone with any experience dealing with this sort of thing. Sound off and if ya help I will lay a few on ya. I have never dealt with this kind of problem from a reputable place? As I'am a gentleman I would never list the name of this place. But take my word for it,it is shocking to me. Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

I am watching Michael Cohen's grilling live on TV and they are really going for his jugular

 

[shewoff]

Hey All!, Sorry it has been so long. But thing's got a bit out of hand in Amman,Jordan. I went out of my scheduled trip to see Singapore to be seen by a group of doctor's in Amman. They are working with gene cell's and the regeneration of said cell's. I have been looking for help with my leg's for some time now and I was INVITED to Amman by the folk's at King Hussien Hospital. I was in a state of frenzy that maybe just maybe I could walk upright like a man again. BUT at the airport custom's I was detained for a case of pill's in my jacket pocket? I carry a daily 7 day carry case for my many many pill's. But my script's had been left by your's truly in my new home in Amsterdam.


Before any of you say anything, I know ,I know, Stupid! I was taken to the sub station at the airport and then sent to the police station and main jail in Amman proper. And don't guess I will tell you. Jail! HAHAHA 47 days to get my ass out of the situation I created. I was released on my own recon. and the US embassy helped alot. At any rate I can now say I have seen an ancient city in the middle-east and also been jailed in that very same cities jail.

My god did I and do I feel stupid.After all of my travel's and no real problem's? This and it is over and I'am glad they finally got my script's from my doctor's in the US. They would not accept my e-mailed copies. So here I'am finally in at the hospital and I will be here for another 30 day's for treatment's and stem cell's transplant's. For any of you that have not had any of these procedure's I will tell you It HURT'S LIKE HELL!

At any rate I'am at a very posh hotel here and I have managed some pic's and have had some really excellent food's. This is the City Rose Hotel and Arar St some more pic's of this very old city. and this is the King Hussien Hospital and the hotel I will be going to next Le Royal Hotel.


Yes it has been a true adventure in weird here. I was in a cell alone but feed with the general population until i was almost killed by some fella's who do not like American's? Go Figure? At any rate I will be moving about here and I will be going to Israel and Egypt and I will be posting for those whop are interested?More later as I 'am feeling a bit ill from my treatment's. Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

[geordiecolin]

No pics of your cell or your assailants? A guy your age and with your condition should have been protected better while in jail

 

[shewoff]

You know I never even thought about it? It was indeed an adventure and added a few more grey ones. I was kept in segregation but had to go among'st them to eat. That is where it happened. A book perhaps it may be a good read? Thank's for the thought guy's. It will be a while before I do this alone again for sure. My children have made statement's about it. Kid's don't think thou, they only see danger. At any rate a ghost writer, and some good brandy and "Who Know's" Right! Thank's for making me laugh. Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

 

[Jasminebed]

Wow. Gotta ask, was this your first visit to jail?

Also, are you always in a chair, or just for more than a few feet? I'm having increasing difficulties with my mobility, and get assistance while dealing with airports. Can still get room to room at home, although grocery stores are getting more than I can handle.

Hope the treatments improve your mobility. Hoping some vascular surgery may extend mine.

 

[shewoff]

OK OK Jasminebed! Let's just say I have been a very active fella in my life. I fought a war and ended up in a wheel-chair! Angry and horny and wishing there was a better way. Oh Yes! I have seen the inside of a few. Some before my my mobility was lost.

Sorry to hear. I can more than understand your feeling's. Not sure if having it taken in a moment OR over an extended period of time. It all end's with a major hit to the soul on many level's.I'am pretty mobile for a man of my age and attitude. I'am in my chair 16 to 20 hour's a day. Except to sleep and for me sleeping is a pleasure I really have not had in a very long time. I can rest and that takes some pill to activate. My shrink's still stick with the standard cope out these day? P.T.S.D I say NO! for me it is when I wake in the night and I see the position my body is in? Imagine you are suspended from your waist up and movement is easy and flowing. Normal shall we say, and your lower half is attached to a weight of immense proportion's. And you try to turn over or flip to your side. The top comes and the bottom stay's.

Have to ask Jasmine, Do you live alone? Or do you have a significant other to help at this stage? I have always hated going shopping for food. People are at a strange place when they go to the food store. I was happy as a pig in shit when Walmart and other large chain's started this pick and deliver or pick up. Nice very nice to just put your list together and call it in. Your in Canada not sure if any of these chain's are in CA or not? Have you been seen by a doctor you trust? That will be very important in the future.

Lastly if you become chair bound for any significant period. Don't settle for one of those monster hospital chair's. The VA is great when it comes to my wish's for a chair. My 1st was a whopping 45 pound's and was too straight up and down. I now have a cut down, low riding, 13 pound blue baby. LOL I love this chair it is quick AND LIGHT. Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

You guys don't know how luck you's are to have the VA, in the UK if it wasn't for various forces charities there would be a dam few Veterans up the creek without a paddle.
The government did attempt an Armed forces Convenant(the convenant is a promise by the national ensuring that those who serve or have served in the forces and their families are treated fairly)but unfortunately they left it up to the local authorities weather the ran with it or not and currently all the mainland authorities have Pledged to uphold the convenant (whilst the majority haven't fulfilled that pledge)
As for N.Ireland where I'm located that's a different story all together 4 pledged but unfortunately due to most councils having a green element that's all it's gonna be.

But they'll support the arrest and prosecution of old soldiers for 'murder' lol...

"Absolutely" probably not wise to enter into dialogue about that subject as no doubt my wee green friend will repot me (again)which will result in another bann for this old solider lol

Yes Irish-ranger we are one of the lucky combat vet's in the world with the benefit's. But we had to fight to get what we have now! Way back when I was drafted you got free school and a living wage while attending school.That was the benefit. I fought with a few Kingdom unite's in The Nam. The airborne unit's were plenty tough and up to the job at hand!

How does military service work in the U.K.? Is it required military service? Like Israel? Sorry to hear about promise's not being kept. That is drag to get a person's hope's up and dash them because of a political agenda?



Off to The Dead Sea tomorrow. Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

P.S gonna get some good pic's.

Hi shewolf
Military service in the UK is completely volunteer national service ended in the 60s I believe with the only drawback being added on the reserve list after leaving in cases of national emergencys with a few exceptions medical discharges/time served ie 22 years and age restricted and Those who were kicked out.

whilst serving the the terms and conditions are second to none first class medical and dental the food used to be great then some idiot decided to sub contract it out to civilian contractors and now its dire in most establishments to say the least .a bit like the pension the screwed that over in 2005 for new entrants..

Probably best not to get into political agendas issues on here lol

Enjoy your trip to the Dead Sea if u are heading there from Amman you will prob pass Petra on your way there well worth a visit and wadi run Lawerence of Arabas hunting ground spent a few months in Jordon interesting country.

This just shows the clown world we live in... it was like the loony left when they questioned thatcher on the sinking of the belgrano and her actions.
She was proven totally correct and even the argies and the belgrano’s captain agreed with her...

 

[shewoff]

Whoa guy's this is a good time to SHARE! Today a trip for sure. You can truly see why these places are given to certain idea's? When you a place that does not look of this earth it is super strange. But beautiful also. A real trip to float easily and not sink. Most people cover themself's mud to prevent getting hammer by the sun and salt. Here is the shot's I have so far.... This is where I'am tonight! These 2 kid's were on a honeymoon.from Switzerland. Very nice kid's. This is the salt Valley. Very eerie.

 

[shewoff]

Hey Folk's, Just a note to share some of the really great food in Amman. I have tasted many kind's of food from all over the world. But here in the Middle East the diversity of the menu's is unreal! You can have Italian Fine Dining,Lebanese, Syrian, African, so many taste. If I were younger it would be much more fun. But my ole tummy can be a real bummer if my in-take is not monitored. Here are just a few of the restaurant's that I have been too here. Here is the Rosa Damascena Restaurant, Syrian Menu! Absolutely delicious. This is the Chestnut Restaurant and Pub Western Cuisine Nice place to hang out! Great food here.The atmosphere is a bit tight for my taste. Fakhreldin Restaurant, Lebanese Cuisine This next place is Absolutely Great! Gusto 2 , On Black Iris St. Ya gotta love the names and places. It is unreal here! Oh Yes Middle Eastern Cuisine Sufra Restaurant, Middle Eastern Cuisine This place is almost like they took the home and made a restaurant? Great Mom &Pop set up. I took a pic of Mashi Ali Frashe , and his lovely wife Miracha. Thanks You Again to both of you. Sorry my pics are not acting correctly. Bear with?


So this is what I will be seeing for some few more days or week's should I say.They want me to start going around with a mask on. To prevent any infection. But me being me. No I will live and manage to get it all done. Feel good no real side effect's YET! Wow I hit the wrong tab and everything disappeared. I have a question for any of you here that are familiar Tahiti? I have a chance to purchase a restaurant bar on the main island of Morai I think that spelling may be wrong. I have dreamed for many year's what it would be like to be able to go to such a beautiful spot in the world and make a few buck's making people happy and myself and friend's happy. Oh Well I'm off to the hot tub and a cool drink. Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

 

[shewoff]

Hey All! I have to say this world is a very very beautiful place? No doubt about it. I have just come back from a short trip to Israel and the Sinai. I must say the people of Israel seem to be happy in just about all part's of life? I don't know if I could be that happy being surrounded by enemies? The young are strong and well educated. So many ancient building's and road way's back to the times of Jesus and later than that. It is a real trip into the past.The food is diverse and very tasty. Great place's to see and visit.
Gambling in Israel is still kinda up in the air? They have a great online set-up and they have had casino's in the past.But there seem's to be a canyon between the pro's and the con's? This may add more money to the state's bank? But there is still a fight for the right to gamble. I went to a casino of sort's called the FlyandPlay but no pic's were allowed and I was disappointed to say the least.My trip to Sinai and the Gaza Strip later.Here are some shot's of my trip.Hope you enjoy?

Golden dome Great market's and people. Shot of a garden in Tel Aviv-Yafo These tree's take on a look of agony? Sunset 1st day WOW! This set of stair's are over 500 year's old. Took this shot at The Wailing Wall. The food is absolutely tasty. This young man was more than willing to take some aerial shot's with his drone for me.Thanks Hadar!More later guy's.Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

Anyone saw Madonna's new video God Control?? It's a masterpiece. It's a very strong message on gun control. Time to wake up America.

Haven't been much of a fan of hers last 10 years. The last album I liked was confessions on the Dance Floor up till now. Love her new album. A lot of deep messages.

That's the same Madonna that rallied crowds to blow up the White House?

Saw Madonna when having to sit through the Graham Norton show some day the other week. What an absolute mess, in every aspect.

 

[colinsunderland]

Not been a fan of Madonna for years now, but she was very good when she released her first album (not the re-released version after like a virgin) and was for about 10 years. Then she got freaky and I went off her.

 

[goatwack]

Shewoff's gonna be pissed when he reads this

- to add, I thought Madonna peaked roundabout the 'Evita' era as an artist

 

[dreamguardian1]

Treading carefully on this. I agree in part but with all good things also comes bad we are close to so many world wards and our own internal civil war its scary. Was talking with one of my clients the other day and she goes "are we headed to a civil" Im like "we already in one it just hasn't totally blown up yet" Client "this is scary" YES< YES IT IS....

 

[EkJR]

I propose that Madonna is no longer Madonna, she has been replaced by a Cyborg by some weird far left vegan conglomerate.

 

[goatwack]

I never understand why vegans get such a bad rap

 

[EkJR]

I never understand why vegans get such a bad rap

They are like the Nazi propaganda ministry, telling people they MUST eat Vegan...save the planet.. yadda yadda yadda. In other words, bunch of c*nts

Vegans are worse than these people...similar, but worse.

Hey All! Sorry it's been a while for me. I have been in the damn hospital over and over again. But this is starting to look like it may help! Finger's crossed. The regimen is deadly.More than 30 shots a day for 4 week's. Pain is no longer a word or feeling. It has become my life! Here is a shot of the bag left next to my bed. I have gotten into trouble a couple of days ago. Trying to get out And have some air! But my system is too fragile right now.So they are right and I'am old! At any rate I will be smiling the day I WALK out of here!!!! I have been having a dream about the floor nurse here.But she will not allow her image taken.As a Muslim I will respect that idea.But I found this pic and I will use it as a icon to show her true self! She would not like my interpretation? But it is what it is. I really am looking forward to getting back to my adventure into human kind. I have seen so much. But have hardly touched the surface I know. My daughter's have been to see me and have left immediately as they are not willing to expose them self's to possible problem's? My youngest is engaged to a very successful Jewish man. They do take a bad view of such thing's here.But I told her she would not have any problem's.Young people have to learn on their own. Well pep's thing's are starting to get a bit blurry. Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

I’m a US veteran and I gotta say, despite its problems, the VA health care system rocks! Drs not always the best and brightest ( I know cause I’m a surgeon- but sure don’t tell rhem
That) but access to supples or equipment is awesome. I’m need an O2
Concentrator 24/7 and when I went on holiday the VA had one delivered for
My use to the hotel we were staying at in another state altogether!!
They also have a program called chapter 115, which is managed by whatever town you live in. Even if your disability is not service related, they will help out for up to a year with a stipend ranging from $700/month to $1400/month depending on how much $ your town has.
Massachusetts is particularly good to us vets in all kinds of ways. I never filed a Veterans disability claim, just kept on keeping on and as it affects me more with age my state va has been a huge help.
So kudos out to the VA and state of Massachusetts!

Sorry I did not respond faster.... But I just 1 day ago finally got out of the hospital that has been my dungeon for over 4 months! But to respond to your post. I have been dealing with the VA soooo long and you are correct! They do make sure your meds and need's to live a comfortable lifestyle are readily available to all vets! Unfortunately the VA has also had some really bad year's also! I have been up and down on the sliding scale that the VA has for us wounded combat vets.. It was bad really bad for about 8 year's.I did not get enough to live on! And I was 100%..... I had to use political source's within the VA and push some button's. They settled down on the slide of that scale! Mass. is a great VA for the VA and so is New York State. They really have a very active transportation and relief system in place to help vets in need! So I have some catching up to do and I will see you around the forum! Watch your top knot! Peace Out!Out Of The Mist! shewoff

Sorry I did not respond faster.... But I just 1 day ago finally got out of the hospital that has been my dungeon for over 4 months! But to respond to your post. I have been dealing with the VA soooo long and you are correct! They do make sure your meds and need's to live a comfortable lifestyle are readily available to all vets! Unfortunately the VA has also had some really bad year's also! I have been up and down on the sliding scale that the VA has for us wounded combat vets.. It was bad really bad for about 8 year's.I did not get enough to live on! And I was 100%..... I had to use political source's within the VA and push some button's. They settled down on the slide of that scale! Mass. is a great VA for the VA and so is New York State. They really have a very active transportation and relief system in place to help vets in need! So I have some catching up to do and I will see you around the forum! Watch your top knot! Peace Out!Out Of The Mist! shewoff

"Free At Last! Free At Last!" As of 3 days ago I was released from the hospital here in my new temp country,Jordan. I have even managed to pick up some of the local dialect and I must say Farsi is a ancient and accent's abound! But I will be going back home to Amsterdam for a few to gather some strength and to relay my best laid plan's? I have lost well over a grand in expired ticket's.... It has been well worth the pain and effort that I have put into this nerve regeneration! Over 300 injection's and many days of physical therapy. There has been substantial regrowth of nerve's in my lower body.

So I will be ready to get back on this horse very soon! Walking with braces and only for short distance's. But it makes me smile every time I do it! It is almost like sex? Almost! But I'am going to a place before I leave here. I promised my daughter's that I would get some lamb skin hand made clog's. The best in the world are made by the Greek's or so my daughter's think! They are both doctor's and the feet are comfortable ALL of the time. At any rate my friend's I will do some sorely needed gaming when I get back to the E.U.....

I miss losing and WINNING money! Mainly it is the RUSH!!! From a big win or a very bad and costly loss. I would very much like to go to Monaco and do some of that High Class Losing! LOL At any rate I have started a new group in that section of the forum.It is a pic and story group/forum.Come by with a story or a pic? Peace Out! Out Of The Mist! shewoff

Well I'm one of the few who think 99.99% of people are actually good at heart. I don't care what your political view is, your nationality/sexuality whatever you can add to that list, I will always give people time and respect. (Even if your favourite slot is Gemix). I just feel opinions are too heavily influenced by the media and politics and that's why I avoid all media sites.

I think you can live a much happier life if you avoid all media including social, and political debates. It's not that I don't care - far from it, I just feel that the character traits that are necessary to become a politician are far from the ones needed to do the best job. In other words, I don't trust any of them no matter who gets elected.

As

The problem is that the good is never shown. Only the bad is shown on news etc.. there is way more good than bad in the world. We just never get to see all the acts of kindness and love spread on a daily basis

Used to think people are great and to love them generally. At this point I really don't. I find most of the people so selfish and self-centered, greedy and neglecting towards other beings, people and environment. Just think majority of humans is wasting their existence without even considering doing something to contribute or make their purpose useful to anything else but themselves. It's not too much of their fault, modern world built up admirable and terrible control and brainwash mechanisms to turn big part of the human race into zombies.
On the other hand, I'm not some dark emo who thinks everything is bad. There's certainly still a lot of wonderful people to be exceptions, putting some effort to make a balance and this world a better place. People who still justify our brain as a powerful weapon to do good and use it no matter what media and public opinion says.
This minority might be very powerful, cause good has a great power, really hope they will be more aware of it.

To sum up my thought, this is what a concluded one night. There was a party and music was so terrible that I cannot describe it (some Serbian shitty autotune crap, with completely poor message in lyrics too) . Most of the guest enjoyed it and knew all the words. Song after song, I was on the edge to have my brain blown and leave the place, when suddenly someone played "We are the people" by Empire of the sun. Great metaphore in the title, just right in time. And I adore this song. Very soon bunch of these people from previous "music" grabbed their coats and left. I felt victory And my conclusion is that just a little bit of good can chase away all the bad.
