Running Scared






Running scared. That phrase has a whole new meaning now.

This group of Generation Zers that we thought were glued to their boxes (iphones) actually know how to think.

Our country will be great again.

I was afraid that these pill popping, pot smoking kids would run our country into the ground.

Work ethic? Not sure if they had one. But when push came to bullets and their lives, and that of their friends were at stake, they grew up fast.

This was their awakening and they did a 180 degree turnaround and fooled us.

For my generation it was the murder of John Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. For this one it was the murder of their friends and teachers.

Amazing what they have been able to do in a few short weeks, including putting “the gun” to the heads of the all too powerful NRA. Something no one has been able to do.

How dare an organization have so much power. All to the tune of the Second Amendment? Really?

I am so proud to have grandkids of this new generation! They have a different set of values! Good for them.

And their mothers and fathers, dubbed “helicopter parents” for over-meddling in their children’s lives, have done something right.

When I was their age I was worried about mundane things. Embarrassed to say exactly what.

If you read the comments and the insults said about these kids you know the gun lovers are running scared. Their immature words make me think they belong in school.

The all too powerful NRA cannot seem to stop this locomotive. It’s running so fast it may derail right on their money making heads.

The same pundits who have vilified Hillary Clinton, and elected a president who makes her look like a school girl, have now turned to attacking these kids. Their true colors are beginning to show.

I say children and teens of America march strong and win. Keep going and make America the country that the world can once again look up to.

Holiday Thoughts

  When I was a kid in the dark ages, I thought Jews were the only ones that did not celebrate Christmas. My parents and my friends would say you celebrate Hanukkah and get a gift eight nights. I don’t know anybody that got a gift all eight nights. If I was lucky, I got a gift one night and it was usually like pajamas. I would always look at beautiful Christmas decorations. We of course had none, just a menorah. That didn’t come close to Christmas decorations. If I could wear a Christmas tree lit around my neck I would. I think it was because I was deprived as a child but don’t quote me. So I was a stubborn little kitten. I decided to hang a stocking over the fake fireplace we had in our apartment. Don’t ask me how I got that stocking I didn’t get an allowance. I probably stole it. So I made sure to tell my parents that I was hanging a stocking. I didn’t care if we were Jewish or not. Well, I got a lecture from my Mom but since daddy was my Dad, he did not say a word and I hung my

Hey Gen Z, What Up?

Image
  So I read Generation Z doesn’t believe in emails and doesn’t open them. My kids’ generation was Gen X. They told me many years ago that if I wanted to hear from them I would have to email them. I had no idea what that was but I figured it out because I had a computer. I can’t figure out when kids started giving their parents rules. If I told my Mom that, I wouldn’t be able to sit down for a week, maybe a month. Then from email it changed to text. Something else to have to learn but I did it. But let’s talk about the people of today. They don’t care about anything. Try to get an answer from anyone about anything. “It was my day off.” “Not my area of expertise.”   “I’m off in 10 minutes.” The last time I was in the hospital I did not get a scheduled meal.   My husband brought it in. One nurse said her shift was over, the next person will feed you. Well it was right then and there that I was checked out and went home. Whoever heard of that junk? Did you ever try to get a m

This Groundhog Didn't Get His Day

Image
  Milltown Mel died! Who is Milltown Mel? He is one of a few rare ground hogs given the honor of an important once a year job.   I guess he was protesting with the rest of Americans saying the pay was too low. One day before his performance.   A bit drastic. They even had to call off Groundhog Day in Milltown, New Jersey. Apparently there was no one in back up training.   All the climate change we’ve had recently was probably just too much stress for him. Maybe he wasn’t taking his vitamins. He probably didn’t like his food and, like I said, his pay was probably very meager.   How do you honor the famous dead groundhog?   A special service? Cremation or ground burial? How about a medal of valor from the President for years of service. I wonder if he had any children that could take over. I don’t even know if he was married. I couldn’t even tell you how groundhogs mate.   I don’t get into all that animal reproductive stuff.   I’m a city girl and really don’t care.   On a bri
