  • Politics Is Like Hiring A Hitman
    by Scott Woods inPolitical on2020-08-13

    For me, politics is like hiring a hitman. I have values and things I care about. I care enough about them to at least bother voting for 5 minutes every year for one issue or another. And because I care at least that much, I vote for people who align with the ability to realize the things I care about.

  • Punching Above Our Weight
    by Roger Madison Jr. inPolitical on2020-07-24

    I believe our vote is the punctuation of our voice. Without that resounding exclamation mark, I believe our voices are just incoherent noise.

  • Living in a Black No-Man's Land
    by Roger Madison Jr. inOur Community on2019-10-28

    There are many narratives that define the Black experience in America in this 2nd decade of the 21st century. Our striving over the centuries of our sojourn in this nation is a tapestry of every human experience -- oppression, enslavement, forced assimilation, dehumanization, exclusion, segregation, isolation, struggle, perseverance, achievement, excellence, celebration, mourning, despair, progress, setbacks, lynching, assassination, genocide, terror, self-hatred, low esteem, pride,...

  • Fighting Racism
    by Scott Woods inOur Community on2018-10-25

    I had a boss who was racist. Not an outright bigot, of course; her toolbox was more subtle than most. We bumped heads a lot over inconsequential things. She frequently couldn’t keep my name out her mouth. Lot of gaslighting. You know…2018 style. I tried a lot of ways to combat or navigate her issues. None of them worked, and that’s saying a lot because I’m really good at fighting racism. But at the end of the day – every day – she was my boss, I had to deal with her, and that was that.

Status on Assisted Living and Concrete in Arizona

first of all let me admit/acknowledge that i am new to this the blog concept, such as maintaining a consistant title when you like it, or using correct grammar (like capitalizing words).

i'll see how this looks when i post it. 

in anycase the misadventures continue for me in Arizona check this out:

Peace of Mind Assisted Living (http://got-peaceofmind.com)

One of my Assisted living Homes is down to two residents out of a capacity for ten.  needless to say this is not good.  what i don't understand is why this is the case.i have a wonderful Assisted Living Home in Chandler, Arizona near Sun Lakes.  the care in this home is great, caregivers love the residents better than family, Chandler is a growing suburd of Phoenix with a pretty good income per capita and Sun Lakes is actually a retirment area.  having no residents makes you wonder if people have stopped getting old.

Longest Yard Concrete (http://got-concrete.com and http://LYConcrete.com)

business is picking up, but i would swear it costs me more to deliver than it does the person to order.  i'm paying people to pour concrete.  the irony is that i see a new ready mix concrete company show up in  the Phoenix, Arizona area almost every week it seems.  there are now over 30 companies in the valley trying to deliver mud. why?!? i don't see how they are making money at this.

more later on http://adultdiapers2u.com and http://theheadphonesite.com...

plus my new venture:  http://10factors.com this is going to be big. 

 

Hey gimme some feedback!!
