Drain Bamaged
Regular readers may have noticed that my posts have been rather skimpy. I'm pretty much tired as on dialysis days I get up at 4;30 IN THE MORNING, and then come back after 4 hours, to do 2 hours of physical therapy.
But the main problem is the brain damage from the mini stroke. I have a problem concentrating. I used to read hundreds of blogs a day and make lots of comments. Now I barely have the energy to read 20 or so, and I barely comment.
Remember Corky from Life Goes On? He laughs at me.
But everything I've read said my brain will come back. I hope it does, I've found it really comes in handy.

Please do me a favor
In rehab I only have a few channels to watch. One of these channels is TBS. The Dell mini commercial is aired every 5 minutes.
So please buy a Dell mini, or don't buy one whichever will get them to take the commercial off the air.
I'm ready to stick Tootsie Pops in my ears.
And one more thing, how did anyone decide a computer is like a lollipop?

All New Jersey Arrested in FBI sting
A sting that was 10 years in the making came to a successful end in New Jersey last week. It appears that the entire state 44 people, including 3 mayors, 2 legislators, and 5 rabbis and various other citizens were arrested for charges that included money laundering, influence pedaling, and the trafficing of body parts.(how much for a kidney?)
New Jersey continues among the leaders in the nation, with 130 politicians arrested in the last 8 years. Maybe it's the economy. The recession hit New Jersey so hard the Mafia laid off three judges, a police chief and two mayors.
But we have a long history of this stuff. Back in the 80's the Abscam Scandal involved a NJ Senator.
In the 1990's CBS news called my hometown, Edison, the most corrupt town in the nation.
Was it because our town sold a park with historical significance to a developer for 2 million bucks, then when they realized their mistake, bought back part of it for 6 million? To ensure the developer took the deal, they condemned and seized "abandoned" land across the sreet and included it. By the way, the "abandoned" land had a bus depot on it and the bus business was in excess of a million dollars a year. That didn't matter.
Nope, that didn't even figure in it.
The godfather of corruption in Jersey politics is Frank Hague. He never made more than $9000 in a year, yet after 30 years as mayor of Hoboken, he left an estate of $5 million. This was back in the 50's, when a million dollars was big money.
Our largest city, Newark, has not had a mayor leave office without a jail term following since 1962. The last mayor is currently serving a 20 year term.
I suppose we should look the bright side. We have 566 municipal governments. So the means 563 officials didn't get arrested.
Yet.

I Miss Hospital Food
Holy crap!!!!
The food in rehab makes hospital grub seem like haute cuisine.
Yesterday's meals were a new low.
Breakfast was corn flakes and a turkey sandwich.
Lunch was an plain omelet, they don't even give me ketchup, with a side of carrots. Lemon jell-o in a shape of a ring for dessert.
Dinner was spaghetti topped with ground beef, and a side of mixed vegetables.
Now I look ahead to next week. Sunday night dinner is cabbage soup.
BTW, what the heck is turkey loaf?
The Crotchety Old Lady is gonna have to smuggle in rations.
