Action Reaction Mx Missle

mr.X may have said,"By any means necessary." In elaborating, I'll say,"By any means necessary which is sensible, logical, rational, ethical, and most of all moral." Lately, all I'm starting to see is a Dead Sea. I'm in no way God. But I hired him. He's doing a terrible job.  I should fire him. He justs eats potatoe chips, drinks beer, watches too much t.v, and certainly plays with himself too much. But , I keep him because it is constantly getting harder to find someone willing to work, like me? Well , you know work may be the most obscene four letter word in the English language. Let us pray. oy vey. ( in memory of my maternal 1st cousin Peter. born 1949. died circa 1971. He was the oldest cousin on both sides. I the youngest. born June 30, 1964. The exact same day Ms. Florence Ballard of motown supremes turned 21, the age of Peter, and the age of my maternal 1st cousin Simone. born 1960. died 1981.  let us all pray. all the way. thank you. with love.

like ms. florence ballard of the supremes, the great singer Lena Horne was also born on June 30. In 1917. 100 yrs. ago, this year. in both cases like lena's song, stormy weather. i fit in there somewhere. feeling like a fall guy and don't know why. blue is my favorite color. hence the blues. like all of us sometimes. be hopeful, though, everyone. june 30, my b-day gives me hope and midyear.

This is a very strange, unique piece. Why quote Malcolm X - I think he meant it when he said "By any means necessary" - the did not mean moral or ethical. Work is important - it can keep you sane! Peace & Blessings Matthew Anish
