NOW I AM PISSED OFF!

The unfortunate thing is that I am helpless & pissed off. You see, as I was logging on to post a diatribe about how NH's second largest utility sucks and my deepened sadness for the loss of Roy Scheider...AKA Chief Brody...my phone rings and on the other end is my credit card company asking me about all these charges that were incured over the past week. The funny (or not so funny) thing was, I haven't used the thing in 3 weeks. Some asshole is out there charging away on my card. Now how the hell did he get my account? There is a $241 charge at a friggin' donut shop?!?! No I know I am a big guy, but $241?!!!!??! It pisses me off. So, now I have to play back & forth with the card company to make sure these charges fall off. Old card shredded, new card on the way, but still...what an ass ache!

Now on to Public Circus of New Hampshire (the other electric utility) "Protecting your life at every moment"--my ass. Here is a company that treats there employees like grade a dog shit. I am very aware of unfair union & labor practices that go on there due to my brother's plight with them. It amazes me that someone has not sued this company to the nines. I know my brother has a great case and I can only hope & pray that he goes for justice. For real! I am not one for lawyers and law suits, but this is a very legitimate case of poor human rescources and labor practices. Where is the damned hammer of justice now?!?!? I am with you brother... I am.




And onto a sad note. Sunday, February 10, we lost a great one. Roy Scheider will forever be known as the man who keeps me out of the ocean to this very day. A great actor from one of my favorite movies of all time, Jaws. I have not only seen the movie 100's of times, but have been to the Martha's Vineyard in search of locations it was filmed. I have read book about the making of the movie, seen countless interviews. To hear of the loss of Chief Martin Brody(Scheider)truly stunned me. A great actor not only in Jaws, but also The French Connection, All That Jazz, & Blue Thunder. You will be missed Roy.

ROY SCHEIDER,11/10/1932-2/10/2008


This weeks quote is from you Chief Brody:

Brody: Rogue, yeah. Now this guy, he... he keeps swimmin' around in a place where the feeding is good until the food supply is gone, right?
Hooper: It's called "territoriality". It's just a theory that I happen to... agree with.
Brody: Then why don't we have one more drink and go down and cut that shark open?
Ellen Brody: Martin? Can you do that?
Brody: I can do anything; I'm the chief of police!
