12/19, less than 24 hours remaining...

Was on a school wide trip to the skating rink; one child got hurt so bad that he had to be taken to the hospital, and I was the escort for that child. Well... it least he was not hurt too bad, and his parents got to meet me there when we arrived by ambulance. For now with the kid- he seems OK.

My wife's twin wont be able to go with me tomarrow 'for the ritual.' WTH- you know. Some ppl cant set their priorities straight, let alone setting the clock on a vcr. Sometimes when you got to do things, you have to do it yourself.

Still trying to narrow down the phone calls. Strange enough, with some other problems that I have been going through, we finally got the phone bill for last month. Its for $-125.75

Thats right... a negative value.

Long story short- somebody was tapping into our lines, as I suspected, and we finally got a line man to check it out. An electrical trace did nothing. A physical trace found a splice in our cable... So (long story short), we got the family arrested, and the phone company reviewed our situation and finally gave us credit. We never were late on our bills, and we never got phone bill higher than $42 a month until "something" happened. Unfortunately, they wont give us a check, but is deducting the amount from future bills. At our rate, thats about 3 months of free phone calls- which includes my home internet access.

Other problems that few here are aware of, are still depending investigations. But things look good for now.

Anything else?... Damn tired right now- physically and mentally. I'm going to have to check my bio-rythm chart and see what it says... probably that I'll have crashed as far as these two aspects are concerned.

Later tonight will be my last posts for a while.
So... G'nite fems, furs, and folks...

Until we all meet again.

Little more than 24 hours for this year's ('03-'04) hiatus to end.

Nothing has been accomplish- yet. Still have 24 hours; may have to extend it unto the weekend.

But in the least, when I'm done- things will be as I want them to be; at least for another year.

Its been 20 years since my wife's disappearence and eventual finding dead on the side of a snow covered highway shoulder. Its been 20 hard years of idiots trying to tell me what is best and to deny that it ever happened.

In the very beginning- which as I post 'Snippets of a Digital Diary', explains what happened during this time and what happened afterwards. For a while, I was a prime suspect in her disappearence. Some so-called friends even called the police to to turn me in as to collect what rewards was posted for her finding. It is those same friends that continue on with their ying-yang and b.s. and try to force me into decisions that I will not ever choose in making.

Unfortunately, these friends are "Shortfellows," and as a Shortfellow, we gave up our lives in the better of each other, our school and the rest of the world. Sadly, it seems that it is our multi-million dollar trust fund is whats keeping us together now. It better not- for I swear I will donate every penny to some more deserving charity than the lot that currently holds it.

Along the way, some of us have died- many of them excellent friends. All cherished in one way or another, all immortally memorized in our hearts, minds and souls- except one.

As a group, we were not exactly the best liked in the school. But we did what we thought was right. Example: when the KKK and Nazi Political party came to our school and burnned books- we gave them the fire hose. When the school went topsy-turvy in the 4 riots, we stood our ground and held back- quenching a bad situation from being worse. And yet, we were not liked, for many saw us as an elitist group who was imposing our will upon them like angry parents do to disobediant children. As their last (and life time) leader, I say to them all - "F-U-C-K-E-M..."

As individuals within the group, many of us were deemed as 'cool.' I did not think myself as so... maybe a righteous son of a b-i-t-c-h, but not cool. But there were others who were more popular than I. Some tried to use that popularity against the rest of the group. But the least popular, was a certain girl named Cathy.

Maritza Campos said it best in her comic strip, "...when opposite ends meet." My relationship to Cathy was like Dave and Blue, but with Blue being violently vicious in the begining.

One of the many problems was that I did not ask to fall in love, and I did not wanted to be in love. Neither did she. But it happened. And the relationship was to be a rocky one, testing the endurance of the human limits beyond its extremes.

First, she was to marry somebody else. This was the 80's, when ppl did still marry in their mid-late teen years. Giving time and some hell, things happen. She devorsed and remarried, this time to me.

But before then, maybe because of her engagement, nobody wanted me to get hurt over a dead-end relationship with somebody nobody else liked. The question is, 'why was she not liked?' I have yet to answer that question.

"...when opposite end met" was when we fell in love. Yeah, in the beginning, we did not liked each other at all. We almost hated each other- me, being a high school transfer student from another school, she- well... I dont know. She just did not liked me. The year passed, my injuries (the #3 reason why I was transfered) eventually healed, and we started to talk to each other without the need for threats of physical harm. Most on her part.

Then there were the lies and rumours about her, of which I asked and told her that I did not care about them. At the time, all I cared about was being able to see again and hanging up my cane for good. Yes- at the time I was blind- the injury that transfered me to the school. The summer before the transfer, I trained everyday until I knew that building better then the designers who built it. least to say, there was a difference between a building when its empty and a building when its full of 18,000 mad raving lunatic students.

I think that in asking, that our relationship began to change.

Then add hell. The early 80's was not a good time for the school; with scandals and emergencies.... [damn security guards are closing the building, I have to go!]

-to be continued....

Last Hiatus Entry until 12/04...

Where was I?
The 1980's, actually from 1979-81, in a place known as BTHS , a school, thanks to the city's over crowding condictions back then, with over 20,000 students back then; The building was made to handle 14,000- if that.

There were lots of scandals to rock the school during this time, as well as the rest of the city's board of education. But there was one group within the school that tried its best to keep things as best as they could. They were the Shortfellows, and they were we: a group of 45 with an inner core group of 12.

The Shortfellows was/were/still is a Renissance Group, studying the art forms and techniques of long forgotten skills and applying them to today's world. It is within this fact, that we were able to do what we did back then. Well, it took a lot of ballz, nerves and stupidity...

One such act I will say, was to swing on one of the stage's curtain/sand-bag ropes from one end of the stage to the other- a 90+ fall and a 175 ft arc. Trying to find a suitable picture to show you what the size of the area was... well... today's pictures shows a renovated auidtorium, and a yahoo search gives reports of conflicting numbers with the high being 5K and a low of 3K. Back then, there was a second Balcony teir, which probably been removed durning the restoration, and is held about 10K students. At the time (and still is), this auditorium was one of the city's biggest, with Radio City and Lincoln Center being the only ones that are bigger; its used to be #5 in the world's largest auditoriums, but now its probably still rank within the top 25- still big for an auditorium in a school. And I used to swing from one end of its stage to the other on a rope while a friend played Phantom of the opera on the pipe-organ (boy I miss that thing!)

Damn secutiry's closing early again! To be continued!

...Continuation:

Well... take 1 group of crazies, a righteous attitude, plenty of wrong doings to correct, and 4 years of choas; what do you get?

Well... as sad as it sounds, the answer is only a temporary reprieve to the horrors of a lot of issues that would eventually take a few lives within the walls of the school. Yeah, after the graduation and my eventual leaving, the following year a student was killed by another student due to 'gang violence.' OK, gangs are one thing- voilence is another. As a group, we could have kept the violence at bay. But that happened after we left and we found no body worthy of filling our shoes.

But, our internal workings as a group, things were unstable. Friends turned into politcal creatures veying for positions like hungry dogs at a single bowl of food. Unfortunately for me, I was entrusted with the Presidentship of the group, despite loosing the popular vote; the elders and Majastrate herself put the final word onto Living Rock.

The power of the group lies in the skills of the individuals within. Certain members were hacking mainframes before the first 'home computer' and modems were made as common place... Others with skills that made any specail Forces Ops Team scared. Martial Arts specailists, and with an interest in weaponry, mixed with experience and intellegence, makes for dangerous people. Me? I was the brians of the operation, though many would have liked to have seen my hemorage to death from the head aches I suffer.

Then there was Cathy. The Least Liked of the group, for reasons unknown to me since I spent my 9th grade in another school fighting for my life- literally.

Add various government agencies that were keenly interested in our skills, and temptations to work for them are 'fairly' decent saleries... you end up with adults with more power then they can deal with responsibly, and let the emotions run high.

Add jealously, a secret marriage that was hoped to be shared with others within a year, and a pregancy. Mix a few apathic friends that could have helped if they had more respect for each other, yet no one lent a hand.

You get my tragedy.

And every year at about this time- the process repeats itself. Why? Thats what I want stopped, the cycle.

Am I asking for too much?

It has begun.

I was going to take a few days for peace, relaxation, mourning and rememberence; now I have to go hunting for some idiot(s) that dares mock my peace.

On Aug 15th, we would have been married 20 years if she would have lived. She would be killed 6 months later... thus started the events that I call my life.

Looking back at it? The wrecks, the gore and bodies, the damage done, all in the name of trying to preserve the memories of somebody who would otherwise be forgotten. To me- she occupies a certain place in my heart that only that special person can be in. Problem with those I dated in the past, they wanted to take over that space, a space they cant have. They can have another space nearby, but in they're greed to take it all- they loose it all.

But since these 20 years, the history that was written, I would not change. I not rich or make a large salery, to top it off, the family problems here are mountains to be trailed... I would not change them for anything. Well in truth, only one thing I would change is the one event that started it all. Since then- some friends had died along the way- though unfortunate that is, it happens.

Its the mockery I cant stand. The idiots that dare play jokes and make fun of what once was. It is those I hunt... to force them to answer why they did it. Strange, its alwys been somebody different everytime.

20 years... where has the time gone?

8/12- An aniversary card came in. Why? More important- who?

Hiatus Time starts on 8/15. I wont be here unless the hotel I go has internet connection. Last Hiatus was expensive because of that... I'll be leeching free wireless portals this time.

Comic updates will end on 8/14 with #42.

Enjoy.
When I find out who it is- I know I will

Its that most wonderful time of the year that I so personally hate with such an evil vengence...

7 Days and counting to my yearly Hiatus Time. By now, this being Haitus #3 since I first joined PF, you guys should know why it is that I do this yearly venture.

Already the cards are coming in, some more annoying than others. Most reminding me of what once was, a few getting down right stupid by mentioning Mr & Mrs or even her name by chance.

Its a matter of how much pain some idiots like to cause unto others, not knowing that in this time of year, I can cause ten-plus fold in return. Unfotunately, there will be a few who will get caught along the way. to them I have to say I'm sorry when all is said and done, hopefully they'll understand.

This will continue until 12/20... then I go onto my haitus.

12/16/04: 4 days remain with 2 of them being in the weekend. Haitus to begin on Monday Evening. Several cards came in originating from the same zipcode, so its coming from the same idiot or group of idiots. sometimes I swear, why must they continue on with these mind games knowing full well that they are going to loose everytime they start with it.

Nonetheless it seems that what ever peace and enjoyment I try to create for myself at this time of year, there are some who believe that they have the right to destroy it. Unfortunately for them, as I have said and proven in the past, any force that I have to contend with will be met with a force that is 10 times theirs applied on an individual basis.

If these fools really wanted to do me the favor, all I request is information and proof that will lead me to her grave marker. Only then will I be happy.

Damn the family secrets and the idiot friends that continue this curse.

Its been over a year since the last post here, as in the random personal stuff as well. Tuesday I leave for my yearly hiatus.

Same reasons triggering it. Too many emails, im's and other idiotic things not leaving me alone when I want to be.

Its bad enough that I underwent a tremendous loss at this time, but why must people treat it like some pathetic joke?

Its easy to be hard, its easy to say no. But its easier to hurt the ones you love, and in this case, those who would dare call me friend thinks that they can continue to reopen wounds that were healing. And they wonder why I never heal... Why every year I have to go through this. Again. And again. And again...
