Worthy Of A Post

Fact is, whatever anyone thinks of Albero, NOT taking the law into his own hands was the SMART thing to do, something that Barrall did not have enough self-control to do.

Calling the police also showed concern for the little boy inside. THAT was the MATURE response. The LAWFUL response.

Would you want to subject a kid to watching two adult men going at it, one of them family, over something stupid, and possibly terrifying the kid more or worse, accidentally hurting him?

WTF is WRONG with you people? To anyone supporting Barrall in this, I hope to hell you are not in a position of responsibility because it shows you, too, cannot handle yourself properly in an emotional situation.

Kudos to the Delmar Fire Dept. for THEIR professional handling of a tough situation.

Broken Spoke License Renewed

STURGIS; Biker entrepreneur Jay Allen managed to win renewal of his beer license for the Broken Spoke Saloon, his rally-week tavern in downtown Sturgis.

The Sturgis City Council voted Monday night to renew his malt beverage license after his attorney, Bryce Flint, told council members that Allen was working to settle his debts.

To Settle Everyone's Mind

Comments have questioned and or challenged whether or not Wayne Barrall was in fact at the scene of the motorcycle accident Thursday. You can clearly see his vehicle, (red Explorer) in this photo and I also have others.

"I was under the understanding that Mr. Barrel was not at the scene as someone mentioned that his motive was jealousy over you getting a pic and him not. Was he there or not?"

He absolutely 100% was in fact at the scene of the accident. Whomever told you differently was a liar. Settled & closed.

Wayne Barall, The Daily Times, Crippled?????

Some have come to this Blog, (and other Sites) claiming that Wayne Barrall is crippled and is not capable of picking a fight, WRONG!

The Daily Times now claims they DO NOT pay Wayne Barrall for photos regularly printed in the Daily Times, including the Sports Section. Wayne tells everyone he gets $40.00 a shot. Which is it?

Even the Delmar Fire Department will create an internal investigation on matters that happened on Thanksgiving Day with Wayne at my home. "There is a procedure for matters like this," said the President and Fire Chief who visited my home yesterday.

Any and ALL charges made by the State Police will be of their choosing, not mine. I have expressed exactly what happened Thanksgiving Day and I have turned over evidence of such, including threatening e-mail messages threatening physical assault on me by Wayne.

What some of you have seen from the outside is nothing compared to what I have seen from this man time and time again. IMO, Wayne Barrall has a mean streak in him that is completely out of control and he proved that Thanksgiving Day.

So why would Wayne Barrall all of a sudden be remorseful? Well, I'm sure The Daily Times knows I have an Attorney on call, since the Daily Times now claims I'm competition and Wayne represents The Daily Times. Then there's the outcome of the Delmar Fire Department's investigation? Just how many Fire Departments does Wayne Barrall represent? He sells disks of his photos to these Fire Departments as well as Insurance Companies. There's also the fact that I'm sure by now Wayne has spoken to an Attorney and he knows he's in deep sh*t.

Considering Wayne is at pretty much EVERY scene I have ever been to, NONE of you can claim the man is crippled, so cut the crap! My Wife has an injured back and we would never claim she's crippled.

Trust me, when Wayne started flinching his arms up and down at me acting as if he was going to hit me, the man isn't crippled. I'll close with, an apology because everyone around you is coming down on you and you were forced to do so is BULLSHIT Wayne. And do you know why I will refuse to accept your apology? Because you should have been apologizing to a 6 YEAR OLD, not me! That's why I know your apology is forced upon you under pressure.

Read my original Post again and try seeing how is was based around a 6 year old, not me. You tattoo'd a 6 year old's mind about Firemen for the rest of his life. They're big bad men now Wayne. The President and Chief of the Delmar Fire Department were kind enough last night to let Gavin play in their truck, run the lights, the siren, the whole nine yards just to regain the confidence ALL 6 year old's should have in FIRE MEN!

Wayne apologized on The Watch Desk, not to me personally and certainly not to our Grandson. It's all about image.

Delmarva Dealings Is History, Once Again

It has been almost a month since his last Post and from the sound of it I doubt very seriously he'll be making a return. We experienced this exact same thing a year ago with G.A. Harrison, (Cato) and as I can attest to the fact that Blogging just isn't easy, it drains every ounce of your spare time and quite frankly I don't know how some do it.

Once it consumes you, people can tend to make you feel obligated to getting something out as soon as possible. That means everything else you're doing has to come to an end. Bill Duvall and I have a more fortunate situation whereas we're retired and we have the spare time to entertain people with our thoughts.

Nevertheless, I have done everything I can to make contact with G.A. and I have been unsuccessful in getting him to return those attempts. What saddens me about that is, I truly considered him my friend and I have never had a friend treat me like that. Out of respect, G.A. should have returned my calls and he has not done so. No one is that busy.

Anyhow, I wish him the best and I'll miss his work, as I'm sure many others will as well. All that being said, for those of you who regularly call me about G.A., do not do so any more and waste my cell minutes. I am removing his link today from my computer, just as I did the Anti Albero Blogs a month ago.

Is It Christmas Or A Holiday?

Twas the month before Christmas when all through our land,
Not a Christian was praying nor taking a stand.
Why the PC Police had taken away,
The reason for Christmas - no one could say.

The children were told by their schools not to sing,
About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.
It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say
December 25th is just a Holiday.
Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit
Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!
CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-pod
Something was changing, something quite odd!

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa
In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.
As Targets are hanging their trees upside down
At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.

At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears
You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.
Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-is-ty
Are words that were used to intimidate me.

Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen
On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton!
At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter
To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.

And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith
Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace
The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded
The reason for the season, stopped before it started.

So as you celebrate 'Winter Break' under your 'DreamTree'
Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.
Choose your words carefully, choose what you say
Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS, not Happy Holiday!

Reflecting Back A Year Ago Today

If you'll recall, this was a photo I put up a year ago saying, "What's Wrong With This Picture?" I took a photo into my Pond and flipped it upside down to make it look like it was a regular photo of some trees and the sky. Boy how time flies! Hence the new title, "Reflecting Back A Year Ago Today" LOL.
