on the topic of renewing relationships, long seemingly dead. Then there are those we sometimes hear of, whereby one partner is gravely ill, with little time left. The other team member gets re-involved. The reasons could be many. As with making timely total amends, a la AA. Guilt---always a big player. Getting in line of inheritance, and sometimes the motivation here comes from the dying person herself. Lessons/messages to children or family. Knowing that no hired help could ever do a better job assisting in death. And so on it goes. Human behaviors. WOW!

We should all rejoice at each example of many CS folks. Their struggles, and willingness to put these out for us, either directly, or by allegory. Sometimes, with the emphasis on GORY. The pluck to keep trying,---even leaving for a bit, in time to reenter into the fray. Apparent levels of honesty are welcome, whether an essential birthright part of one's esssence, or a sign of progress in that general direction. The same with kindness, as with present company. I just read a post from a lady who has been open with us about her many attempts/setbacks in finding aggreeable gainful employment. Now she appears to be in the driver's seat, pun intended, and who among us isn't really happy for her. CS could put a place for folks to comment on more than successses in finding partners. In fact, I suspect that the latter might just be contingent on getting one's shite into one's sock on the former.

...sage job advice for youth. Seek out jobs that put emphasis on ability to work in different and unpredictable situations, that maximise human interactive interpersonal qualities, such as humor, social/emotional intelligence and multisituational creativity. Avoid repetitive sorts of work without these features. Become a Cyberhacker.

...Yet one more accomplishment of our Dazzling, Brilliant, Ivy league graduate President Trump. And not a small one either. And one more campaign promise completed. So he ditches poorly crafted NAFTA, with all the usual democrat warnings of complete North American economic collapse. Plays hard and rough with the Mexicans and Canadians, and they go along. Dems claiming it all only happened because they played ball as well. Now, isn't THAT special? So let's see, we could use the Micman or Willy's awesome help to list all the important promises kept. Get's a bit tough for me to keep track of such high numbers.

.....academic education knows, don't hold your breath for actually learning anything practical about teaching even a single kid. So it mostly is with instruction on how to do family or couples therapy/counseling. But a few useful sayings do seem to stick. Such as, actually a Jerry Seinfeld line, "There's no such thing as fun for the whole family". Or, on entering the hour, "How do you all feel about being here with us today?" And then there's, "No matter how good you may feel about one member of the clan, it almost always takes TWO to tango". And my favorite, the most effective phrase any client can learn, "Yes dear, that is such a good suggestion".

....And I do. Perfect mates, for the fellah down the hall. A few times, I fell victim to the siren looks and songs---and come ons. Even paid for air fare to visit us here at the Vierk mansions. And believe me, first class flights from Kazakhstan, Borneo, Vanuatu and Tui Tui La don't come cheap. But who's digressing? And this sad state of affairs might well have continued, had not Lady Cyberscrutinizer herself, Peace be upon her, so tough lovingly intervened on my wayward behalf. A formidable old broad, but chock full of wisdom, she, "They are mostly scammers, and when not, ask your silly head, what would such modelesque morsels, all in their 20's, really want to do with a grizzled old farty wanker like you?" Of course, she was spot on, but cuttingly went further, taking up all the room in the treetop love nest, to say. "The young ages and the looks should be strong warning signs, dip shite, but the biggest clue is when, in their profiles, they specify "generosity", as a main quality in a man." Well, needless to say, who can argue with all that? I then inquired of Lady C," But long legs, how can a bloke with such racist/misogynist right wing hate on board, let these tarts down gently?" Well, as do Buddhist monk masters, responding to stupid questions, she hit me on the crown with a broken branch, and said, "You'll figure it our, now hand me another cheap warm beer." Well, after consulting with our sociopathic HR department at the Vierk Institute, I came up with the answer. When one dumps such ladies, using HR wisdom, just make it seem like it's something wrong with ME, not them. VERY wrong. So now, whenever the plea for generosity in a man appears, I reply at once, somewhat truthfully, " Oh, you really wouldn't like me much at all. I'm tight as a funeral drum. In fact, I'm so cheap, that for first dates, I insist that prospects pay in advance for my air fare to visit them." And over time, I insist, "that they foot all the bills, especially all gifts for my other girl friends ". Seems to work 100% of the time, so far. But could I be sending a few great ones packing? I never know.

....Whether city, county or state... And in other ridiculous, Democrat future vote pandering, SANCTUARY PLACES. How are those self loathing, success guilt, liberal, open borders policies working for you these days? But mayors, commissioners and governors seem to be mastering techniques of their pathetic BEGATHONS, to their hated President Trump, for a mask or two. When you find yourself in a deep hole, stop digging. Who could make any of this up, folks?.
