----- Blatherings----- Bloomington, Indiana is in all the news because of that Nazi who went on the killing spree (whom I've been reading about for months when I go to the Bloomington newspapers). More about Bloomington: "Reverend" Jim Jones of poisoned Kool-Aid fame went to I.U. Bloomington, and so did William and Emily Harris, the abductors of Patty Hearst in 1974. Legionnaires Disease was traced back from Philadelphia to there as its origin. The Dalai Lama's brother has lived there for many years and the Dalai Lama himself will visit Bloomington in August 1999...... When I went there so did Jane Pauley, Kevin Kline, Janie Fricke and Mark Spitz. 7-8-99......... 932pm Monday July 12, 1999. YCP. Got up at 8am to take my father to hospital. He had me wait until noon. Then they kept him there until 6pm. What a BORING day..... Tuesday 7-13-99:: Martin Library.. Tried to get some extra sleep to catch up on what I lost yesterday but workers in the street. Only got extra 20 minutes Now 1027am. Maybe catch the 11 am bus. No privacy here on 'Audrey 5' computer right in the middle of the floor. ... No longer a thermometer downtown. Feels like 90*............. Wed 7-21-99. 1230pm. Came here to York Fri 7-17-64 to Sat 8-1-64, 35 years ago this week. Today I went downtown at about 930am, walked down Market to Lincoln Hwy Garage for breakfast (ham/cheese omelet), then to what's left of Millers Petshop since they both died. Jeez, they were ancient. Then through Allen Field. Then over RR bridge and slid down to tracks underneath. Then straight out along tracks to other side of Hudson Park. Thru the park's edge where that little green covered bldg used to be. Thru the alley behind Richards old house. To next corner where Smitty and I would go to 12th grade. Then to Sherman. Then thru alleys I used to walk to Wagners down. Then along Philadelphia St. To that second-hand place to get that 1962 Whitman Rummy Royal game- but it was gone. Back up to Phila past the old "Empire" bldg to Duke. Then into town. Picked up a hundred at the bank. Now here.......... Mon Aug 2, 1999. Mopping all the floors over the weekend in preparation for getting homes for my fathers kittens. Have to get him to blooodtests this week. To Apple Hill physicians next week. Wash his clothes at laundromat this week. Wish I had really learned how to type in that 1962 course. These keyboards are too tiny for my long fingers. asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl; asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl; asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl; asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl; asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl; asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl; asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl;asdfjkl; mY gOd. The PAIN! My fingers cramp up and I get shooting pains under my wrists from my cramped up fingers trying to move...Wed 8-4-99 143pm. Left two hours late this morning and have to get home early as father is sick. Have to wash his clothes tonight as used last night for more mopping. Tried to rest at sidewalk table at McCrory's downtown but some guy who just moved to York sat at it. But he's okay as he is a fellow scientist/engineer. He worked on many of the things in science I was excited about in the late 50s/ early 60s. But he's now got a bad heart, takes six bottles of medicine daily to stay alive. Well, its science/ engineering that ruined him. Worked him to death just like everyone else. Too much damn pressure to succeed when everyone else has a normal life. Tonight I wash fathers clothes and tomorrow its off to hospital for blood tests. Plus he's in pain so they have to check that. ..... FRIDAY SEPT 3,1999. Labor Day weekend. Guess the Neff people will have their Pinchot get-together. I'd show up if Vi and Loralee did not. I get along with the rest of them... ......... I just cant believe how degenerate the internet is. Every sicko is on it. Post anything anywhere that supports decency and morality and a hundred will attack for ever one who agrees. Anonymity brings out the real side of people. Well, I guess it does for me as well as I would only post what I REALLY think of this degenerate society under assumed names so I dont get 3am phone calls. We now have developed an upside down moral system. SEPT 15,1999: News yesterday: Bloomington, Indiana now hardest place to rent an apartment in the entire USA. I'm not surprised. Its such a nice place everyone wants to live there so the rents go way up. Supply and demand. Took father to hospital three times in five days and would have gone tonight except his leg hurts so badly he can't be moved. The man's been my albatross for decades. No help with my career and always has problems to hold me back. Well, I shouldnt say 'no' help. With pressure from my mother he gave me a little during my first semester- when I didnt need it, of course. THURSDAY Sept 16,1999: POURING rain today. Hurriucane coming up. So naturally I have to do all the shopping on foot, walking for miles and get my fathers burgers and then maybe take him to the hospital. He's going to have to go sooner or later. I want to go to the Fair Friday night. I better write to Roland now. ...... 9-21-99: On TV last night they said that a poll of men showed that 95% of then would trade their wives and girlfriends in return for being a PRO ATHLETE. Im not surprised. 95% of the marriages Ive seen are loveless. His money in return for a sexual outlet. Lower the IQ the more its so..... Also said that 1.8 million women addicted to sex. More like 75 million and its why decent men cant find wives. 9-21-99 241pm ________ ________ _________ ___________ OCTOBER 1999 ________ ________ Oct 19, 1999 WEdnesday. 1226pm. Still waiting for Roland to show up to take me to a job he wants my help with. Helped him put a topper onto his truck in the center of Red Lion yesterday. Whenever I go anywhere with him I wind up eating with him at COUNTRY BUFFET and Im losing my wasp waistline. I was in great shape from 1983 until I got on this damn web a year ago and now I eat all this food to boot. Father now so weak he cant even go down to the cellar to pour his kerosene so I now have to do it for him twice a day. About 950am and 7pm. York college reopened- just in time for me to see the Mets lose the pennant last night. Both of fathers little white kittens died over the weekend. Mother was very old. They were born Columbus Day. Had to bury them. Second one I had to bury in the rain at night in the back yard. How ironic that the man everyone hid behind to hurt my mother and me is now the one Im taking care of. And he doesnt seem to have a clue about his cruelties. Of course, neither do Viola and Loralee and all the other bastards who got away with it because of him. I wonder why they think they got away with it when Ive always been bigger and stronger than ALL the people who hid behind him. Did they think I worried about knocking THEIR teeth out? Drizzle today.
