Young adults. We all have been stupid in our lives and taken risks but when we were growing up we were told if you pick on someone bigger than you expect to loose. Please, Please, Please, realize that you can and will die. I know what it is like to want to seek thrills, it gets the adrenalin and endorphins flowing. There are many more safer ways to accomplish this than have your car argue with a train.

Your car weighs about 3,000 to 3,500 pounds or 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 tons. A diesel on the other hand weighs about 270,000 pounds or about 135 tons. This is just the engine folks then there are the cars passengers and cargo all going at 67 mph. If I remember my math right KE = 1/2 * m * v(2) (2) = squared.

This means the force of just the engine = 67,335,000 pounds, you can not win that one folks, and this is just the engine.

Please be safe. Do not encourage this type of behavior. Please, please, please for the sake of those that you would leave behind DO NOT TRY TO BEAT A TRAIN!!! People out there love you and want you around. I bet these 5 kids thought this kind of stuff only happens to other kids. Look at their car! Then look at it again, and again until it sinks in. They became a part of the car.

This world has lost all sense of reality. DO NOT MOVE TO MAINE! My God what are they thinking? Oh yeah that is right they are not thinking. The first thing that I would like to remind people of is that our country is a republic biased on a democracy which means that the needs of the many out weight the needs of the few or the one (Gene Roddenberry). With this in mind I have to believe that The Maine Human Rights Commission (see article here) needs to be restructured and reeducated because they feel that it is OK for a boy to use the girls bathroom in elementary school because he believes he is a girl. As my son would say “That is redonkulous!”

This became a dramatically differently story when a grandfather (Paul Melanson) found out through his grandson what was going on and he told his grandson to use the girls bathroom. This was not allowed because he is biologically a male and her (as they say, but no matter how you slice this one folks HE still has an X and a Y and that cannot change) gender identity is female so it is OK. The plot however thickens. Another boy was told that he cannot use the girls bathroom even though the original boy was because he is biologically a male and his gender identity is male. Yeah, right. So a boy who may be exploring his maleness and wants to cop a peek can say his gender identity is female and this school will enable his habit. There is no real way to prove his intentions one way or another the school administrators must just take his word for it.

I thought the way the school dealt with it was admirable. They decided that boys would use boys bathrooms and girls would use girls bathrooms and others would use a single stall bathroom. What is wrong with this? You can bet that the Maine Human Rights Commission can dig up a problem. It seems that this bathroom is “all the way at the other end of Asa Adams School” and this is a form of discrimination. I want to know how this ruling does not infringe on the rights of girls and parents that do not want a boy in the girls bathroom? A person or anyone else for that matter cannot say that a boy is a girl when they are a boy and then expect to be given entrance to a gender segregated bathrooms. Sorry, but bathrooms are OK to be gender segregated.

As far at the above statement by me goes it carries quite a bit of weight because while attending Niagara University and being involved in theatre we had duel gender bathrooms, showers, dressing rooms, and makeup rooms. So one can not call me a phobic of any kind because yes, there were gay men an women taking NU theatre classes too, go figure. Yes, these gay people were my friends, correction they were good friends at the time, just as everyone there was because when anyone was down and out we pulled together to help them out.

Time and distance has separated us but I know that we would be just as good friends now as we were in school because all the shared experiences made a covalent bond that cannot be broken it can only be shared again.

All this being said, boys belong in boys bathrooms, and girls in girls bathrooms, especially at the elementary level. No school system or form of government has the right to infringe on a families values and morals especally at that young and impresionable age. This country grants us all to the right to have opinions about things, to feel uncomfortable about things, and demand that the needs of the many are what take precedence. This does not preclude or demand creating another bathroom for those who want to put themselves in another category. This is the meaning of equality that men, women, and gay can their own bathroom. No harm no foul. Everyone should be happy with that and if they are not then they are over-asserting their rights just to have fifteen minutes of fame.

The commission complained that the grandfather was using his grandson as a pawn to make a political statement. I do not see how the parents of the boy who was using the girls bathroom were not doing the same thing. The only thing that the commission was doing was buckling under to political correctness, and political correctness is about as far from being correct that one can be because it mostly trashes the rights of the many in favor of the few, this is simply wrong. People had better take a stand against PC before they wake up one day and find that the rights they were championing for come true and no one has any rights any more.

After reading the article in the link I find that The Maine Human Rights Commission has no interest in resolving complaints of discrimination to the mutual satisfaction of those who are involved as its WEB SITE states.

This reminds me of the statement “Hi, I am from the government and I am here to help you.”

Yet another form of misandry in Canada. A new B.C. pharmacy is not adhering to province’s equal rights provisions. See article here ANTI-MISANDRY FORUMS.

Apparently women do not feel comfortable speaking to a male pharmacist about vaginal issues (Um, yeah that sounds sexist). Let me see men have to talk to female pharmacists about penis and tactical issues and if we choose not to or voice our objection we are sexist. Goose meet gander. Let us see the other reason is that the women are not comfortable waking into the pharmacy that is giving methadone treatments to the addicts . . . I see women do not have to deal with this but it is OK for men to have to deal with this . . . Um NOT! If I were a man I would go to this “female only pharmacy” and give them my scripts and if they refuse to let me enter or serve me . . . well it sounds like a civil rights issue to me. This is no different that refusing to serve a black person. WAKE UP! Do protests, write your representatives, just do something about it!

Yep, you read that right. Speak of hype or is that tripe? Now we are expected to believe that in only 24 years global warming is to blame for smaller Scottish sheep . . . OK then.

Yep that is right the peat has become so poor in Scotland that grass no longer grows so the sheep do not have enough to eat and they have become a whopping 5% smaller in only 24 years or possibly 2 generations.

The truth be told is that there is more food because of the milder winters grass has a longer growing season, yet the sheep are becoming smaller again in 2 generations. I think that this prediction is a bit premature.

The one factor that they left out of the article is that these Soay sheep have a tendency to not reach an equilibrium with nature (sounds like humans to me) and they will over populate and then die out, on the order of 2/3rds of the population in as little as 12 weeks. Incidentally this did happen in 1989.

There is virtually no way to convince me that the “scientists” behind this study are not being irresponsible and or possibly governmental rubes.

I avoided this current topic like the plague because of the “feminazis” that would go nuts and distract the real point of the subject, intoxication while tending to a child. In BISMARCK, N.D. police responded to a domestic disturbance and arrived at Stacey Anvarinia’s home to find her breast-feeding her 6-week-old baby and she was drunk.

She was arrested and she pleaded guilty to child neglect. It seems that her case has touched off a debate among moms about breast-feeding, alcohol, and privacy. Now it is not that I necessarily agree but what is good for the gander is good for the goose, however women do not see it that way. I have notice often that women often are the spark behind legislation typically because of some family member or child that was injured or killed BUT when the law comes home to them they even more often feel they should be exempt.

There have been many parents arrested because they were the only parent home tending to children and the parent was intoxicated. Why has this become a woman’s only privacy issue? It seems it is because they have breasts. This is sexist. People want to make it illegal to smoke in your car and own home if you have children because of the possibility of ill health effects BUT we will throw caution to the wind at the expense of children about the potential effects of alcohol in breast milk if it inconveniences only women. Imagine that!

How does that expression go? . . . Oh yeah “in the child’srens) best or is that breast interest.” That rule all of a sudden seems to have become invisible. One has to question why, and I do not think that my reason is off at all.

I shall be watching this with great interest and store it up for future ammo when a man wants to exercise his rights and privacy regardless of potential harm to a child(ren).

I know that there are enough people employed by the Town of Tonawanda that read my weblog where this will be ample notification for an official termination of use notice for any and all training and procedure devices written, typed, or electronic that I have created for the Town of Tonawanda. These materials were created by me on my own time and are the sole property of Bernard S. Misiura Jr.

Thank you,

Who in the hell ever had steak on the 4th? Where is this money and why do I not have any of it? Why am I asking you? You do not have it either!

I am contunually suprised by how the other 1% lives and the media makes it out like all of us live that way. Well here is your wake up call. HEY MEDIA WE DO NOT ALL LIVE LIFE LIKE ON TV WHERE EVEN THE UNDERPRIVLIAGED HAVE 3,000 FT SQ OR LARGER HOUSES. You know most of us have 1,000 ft sq houses or less.

My 4th parties have for decades always have been dogs, burgers, beer, AND bring a dish to pass. Reality check. No job this year, no party. I am heartbroken. This is one of the biggest dissapointments in my life. My life sucks. I do not say that to instill pity I say it because there are very few days that no matter what people like me say the hell with everything, today, nothing matters EXCEPT to have a good time and forget all your troubles. Without that this year one of my few days of destressing has evaporated. Just another reminder of the vanished middle class. Just another reminder that I have paid for other peoples food, heat, water, phone, electric, health insurance, and everything else under the sun but here my family and I sit still waiting for help.

Thirty one plus years I have paid into the system never once asking for help when my family did meet the criteria even though I was a “well paid Town of Tonawanda employee.” We qualified for the low income new housing and other things like HEAP.

Well for those of you who had steak this year I am happy for you. All I want from you is for you to realize for once in your life how good you have it.

For all of you who have it worse than me (there are a lot of you) and for those who have it better, I hope you had a Happy 4th of July.

Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of man, that state is obsolete.

- Rod Sterling

Never a truer word was spoken. You see it is not me but rather “them” that have to deal with what they have done until the end of time. What will they say when the time comes for them to answer about their charity to man? What will they be able to say about what was done on perpose?

Call it religious, God, or Karma, but like a pendulum it will swing back.
