Companion....

A companion is some that is with another person.  Men and women are looking for companions every second of life.  People like to be on their own but they also crave to be with others for interaction.  There have been many songs written about everybody needing somebody, either to love or be with .  In my life experience I often come to the conclusion that people whether they are male or female we all have baggage that we carry from one relationship to the other.

The key is to find the companion that is the least headache to be with.  We are all headaches, some more the others.  Whenever I am behind the bar people come and go.  There has yet to be a time where a person that walks in with someone is happy with who they are with.  Life is simple, people with their quirks make it complicated.  

The too-too good and the too-too bad, do not always last too-too long.  A man and a woman  walk in to my bar initially they are all over each other and all of a sudden they are at each other with accusations.  Drinks are spilling and slaps are flying.  Life is too short for drama.  Close the lights it is all the same.  With society advancing more and more life is supposed to be simpler but is not.  We are able cross all barriers withe use of the internet and are demands become greater for essentially the same results.  Human needs are basic and should stay as such. Food, drink, clothing, housing, entertainment, transportation and sexual stimulation.  With in these boundaries everything is relevant  and available. 

Baked potatoes............Delicious and Nutritious.

I like variety in every part of my life.  This may seem hypocritical but I am also not in favor of surprises.  Last Sunday I went shopping.  Among the many items I purchased, there was a bag of Idaho  baking potatoes.  It has been a long time since I have russets so big.

These giant potatoes that I have contain a huge amount of potassium, about a quarter of what is required by the human body to run efficiently.  The potato itself has almost no fat.  When we choose to put butter, margarine, or sour cream on the potato then it is loaded with extra fat and calories.   The potato itself with a little salt and pepper is a perfect all-around-food at any time.  This past week I have been having the giant potatoes for breakfast.  When I eat one potato at about 5 am I feel full until about 11:30 am.  It actually holds my cravings for a long while.   With the proper seasoning the Idaho potato is hearty enough to keep me from being hungry soon.

If I decide the potato could  be my main dish or the side.   The potato as a entree could be loaded with bacon, mushrooms,  scallions, and even cheddar cheese.  Breakfast, lunch or dinner the Idaho potato is a power food and is to be enjoyed as such.  It is yummy on its own or serve with a steak or burger or even seafood.  Filling nutritious and delicious the giant potato is perfect.

When I wake up in the morning or whenever I am in the mood for a baked potato I rinse the potato to be eaten and salt the outside and place in the microwave oven for about 12 to 15 minutes on high, until it is squeezable.  Then I cut the potato in half the long way and drop my desired toppings over the two halves.  The potato comes out of the microwave oven steaming hot and the different flavors are intermingled wonderfully in the steam.

Yummy for your tummy!!!

Who wears the pants?

In today's time who wears the pants in the family does not really matter, as long as the decisions made are for the greater good.  It is of no use to be a leader that is hated and constantly loosing ground.  Wearing the pants does not make a person any smarter or powerful.  With the advent of technology a person does not have to be dress at all to make any sort of decisions.
There are many head of households that choose not to wear trousers but this fact does not make them any less of a man.  Many great warriors of the world wore skirts or kilts or togas, this practice did not detract from their manhood or ability to lead successfully.  
The other day a friend of mine throw a jab in by saying, "we know who wears the pants in your family".  To me it does not matter who is on top.  What does matter is the out come and how much I looking to benefit.  Life is short as it stands and if I can enjoy more of it without sweating or thinking, then I am all for the idea of not wearing the "pants".  If I can lead a life of leisure and someone else is to hit the pavement  for a living then "by all means"no pants for me.  
Women are complaining constantly that they are getting the shorter end of the stick.  What they really do not understand is that they actually have more power.  In an argument with three people and one happens to be a woman.  The lady calls the police and when the arrive, the two men are cuffed as the woman makes accusations.  The moral of the story if a lady calls the police about a man, the man is in more trouble than the woman. 

It does not matter who wears the pants.  

What does matter is who gets arrested.

Spanking.....

When a baby is first born, the doctor spanks it on it on the rear so that it can start crying and clear its lungs from any embryonic fluids that are lodged in there from gestation.  Growing up a person gets used to spanking, as a form of clearing up or snapping out of a trancelike state they may be in.  In other situations people grow to like being slapped on the rear as a form of empowerment.  During the course of lovemaking, in and around the excitement  there is an exchange of role-play and spanking.  This raises the libido as well as the energy for all parties involved.

Role-play is exciting and an excellent way to get the blood flowing.  As long as all the people involved are interested in having fun than no one will be hurt.  When a couple is together, there is a need for variety in order to be a sustainable interest by all the people.  The experts say that variety is the spice of life.  How many times can you have the same meal before you get bored?    Occasionally there is a need for change.  In my tenure as a bartender the number of time I have been asked to partake in the adventures of visiting couples and singles is mind boggling.  People need attention and adventure and I need a drink.  If everyone acts with tact and respect, a good loud whack in the tush will bring euphoria to all those involved.

People have so many things going on in their lives, that once in a while a good whack could help them "snap out of it".  Everyday you wake up to a routine and every night you come home to the same thing.  Eggs, tunafish salad,mashed potatoes.  All of a sudden you discover salad nicoise and everything is in the light.  A dish from southern France that consists of potatoes, hard boiled eggs, olive, tuna, tomatoes, olives, in dijon vinegarette dressing.  If eaten separately each ingredient is bland and ordinary but when mixed together in a salad with a tangy dressing they become wow.

The term variety is the spice of life is quite fitting for this.  A person could have the same result every single day.  The excitement is how the results are derived.  Enjoy your life because everything is uncertain.....

Spank....Spank.....Spank......

Have fun!!!

Everyone is expendable....

As life goes forward I look at the past and say it was better during the time of my parents. We have all the modern conveniences of life to allow us plenty of free time. When a person has empty time and no plan as what to do with it, all that happens is nothing. In the grand plan for profit and maximization of resources for every position there are lines of people waiting to replace those that are either dissatisfied or not interested. People have to line up their wants and possibles. I have gotten to a point in my life where good health is of the most important things I want. Lifespans are not infinite, it varies from person to person. There is a birth and a death. For the time being, death occurs somewhere after the age of seventy-five. There are so many people lately that because of proper care have been living into their late eighties and even higher. In my younger years Florida was not a destination for me. What would any one expect from any travel that is done with their parents?  Boredom.  What did happen in my travels was for me to learn different languages, to be able to communicate with the beautiful ladies of the world.

As I grow older and near the next stage of enlightenment in my life, it is time to think of what i like provided my health is good.  The children are in their own stage of growth and are busy moving along at their pace and are less and less involved in what I am doing.  This freedom is allowing me to do whatever is necessary to enjoy life the way I have been dreaming.  Time be in Bermuda shorts everyday and sandals on the beach  running a bar serving my delectable cocktails to the beauties of the world and being the proverbial Socrates of the beach.  Giving and receiving advice on various themes is my most favorite thing to do.  Imagine coin this in a bar on the the sandy beach anywhere in the world.  I would never age mentally, constantly surrounded by fresh minds ready to listen.

Take it easy....

Be cool, the world is not about you.  Being selfish is very unhealthy for all those involved.  The other day I decided to take a walk along the jogging lane of the Cross-Island Parkway.  This is a warm sunny day so I decide to remove my shirt to exercise and get a tan at the same time.  The stretch of land alone the highway is part of a park, where people go to exercise, meditate and unwind from the aches of daily life.

There is no government policy that states that I have to keep my shirt on while exercising in the park.  One day last week, I am in my own world with my headphones on and my shirt off sweating up a storm.  As the music is playing I hear a voice coming from in front of me, "Hey you! Put your shirt on you look terrible!" I holler back, "Keep your eyes on the road and not me!"

Society is full of problems and everyone carries their share and do not need to carry any extra grief.  If for whatever reason you do not like something in front or around you the park is the best place to be.  Who are you to open your mouth and be confrontational.  We all live equally in society and are entitled to be with in the guidelines that are set by us and our peers. 

I do not hold you down and conversly you should not hold me!!!

Menopause....

Men and women go through stages in life. The difference is that women are mentally unstable thane men are when their life altering process occurs. Men do not change life in the same way women do. Women in general are exponentially more sensitive than men. Men do not change as radically as women.
