WORLD WAR III

admin — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 19:04:20 +0000

In the 1964 cold-war movie classic DR. STRANGELOVE, General Jack D. Ripper (Sterling Hayden) was a bit paranoid about the fluoridation of drinking water.

“I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion, and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids,” he declared, after ordering a squadron of B-52s on a surprise nuclear strike of the Soviet Union, triggering World War III.

In January of 1995, World War III broke out – almost.

The country of Norway was planning to launch a communications satellite. Since the path of the rocket would violate Russian air space, the Norwegian authorities notified the Russian authorities of their intentions and obtained permission for the launch.

Unfortunately, the Russian authorities neglected to notify the Russian military.

When Russian radar technicians noticed an unidentified flying object, which looked exactly like an incoming Trident missile that had been launched from a US submarine off the coast of Norway, they got a bit excited.

Russia went into a full alert — arming nuclear missiles, opening silo doors and started a ten-minute countdown.

Boris Yeltsin, the erratic leader of Russia, known for his fondness of vodka and propensity for dubious behavior, was handed the nuclear briefcase. He was apparently sober enough to unlock the container and enter launch codes.

All systems were go as the countdown continued.

With approximately two minutes to go, some enterprising Russian military officer made a couple of phone calls and figured out what was going on. World War III was shut back down, for the time being anyway.

It was an amazing moment in the history of the world, yet didn’t get much press coverage at the time. Apparently, there were more interesting current events to be reported that day, such as the latest peccadilloes of our own erratic leader, William Jefferson Clinton, known for his fondness of anything wearing a skirt and his propensity for dubious behavior.

As incredible as it seems in hindsight, the survival of the planet Earth was in the hands of Boris Yeltsin and Bill Clinton.

Somehow, I would’ve been more comfortable if the Three Stooges were also involved. There’s nothing like a swat over the top of your head with a frying pan to bring a moment of enlightenment to chaos.

At the time, Russia had about 5,000 inter-continental ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads and the United States had somewhere around 7,000 of them. This is not a situation meant to help us sleep well at night.

MAD is an acronym for Mutually Assured Destruction. This basically means that if Russia chooses to blow us back to the Stone Age, all they have to do is push a button. As we watch the incoming weapons of mass destruction heading our way, we will push our button and blow them back to the Stone Age in return.

MAD is the strategy cooked up by our respective governments to prevent war between us. The geniuses who came up with this brilliant scheme should be locked in a padded cell in the basement of the Mayo Clinic until their brains can be examined, removed, fumigated and replaced with Intel chips.

We live in a dangerous world these days. Russia appears to be as belligerent as ever and continues to bully its neighbors.

Many of those in other corners of the world who view our country as evil wouldn’t hesitate to take their own lives, as well as the lives of millions of innocent people, in their zeal to destroy us. If they could find a way to trigger MAD, they would surely do so.

Plus, additional countries will eventually have nuclear capabilities. To have a Mutually Assured Destruction posture with certain radical countries would deem the launching of nuclear weapons an inevitability.

As long as we seem to be trapped into spending zillions of dollars on a military budget, perhaps we should put some of it toward a strategy of destroying incoming missiles rather than simply aiming thousands of missiles at others.

Blowing the other guy to smithereens doesn’t do much good if the other guy gets off the first shot and there is no defense against it.

Of course, the ultimate solution is to have Peace on Earth, goodwill toward others and live happily ever after. But somehow that doesn’t seem too likely in the near future as long as people kill others in the name of religion and there’s a profit to be made by manufacturing the tools of war.

War is the byproduct of human fear and greed. There are those who yearn to fight and those who yearn to profit from conflict. And those who yearn for Peace on Earth are caught in the crossfire.

On the positive side, World Wars will probably end at III.

THE NEED FOR LAWYERS

The following true story won first place in a recent Criminal Lawyers Award Contest.

A Charlotte, NC, lawyer purchased a box of very expensive cigars, then insured them against fire among other things. Within a month having smoked his entire stockpile of these great cigars and without yet having made even his first premium payment on the policy, the lawyer filed a claim against the insurance company.

The lawyer claimed the cigars were lost “in a series of small fires.” The insurance company refused to pay, citing the obvious, but the lawyer sued and won. The judge agreed with the insurance company that the claim was frivolous. Nevertheless, the judge stated that the lawyer held a policy from the company in which it warranted that the cigars were insurable and also guaranteed it would insure them against fire, without defining what is considered to be unacceptable fire, and was therefore obligated to pay the claim.

Rather than endure a costly appeal process, the insurance company paid the lawyer $15,000 for his loss.

After the lawyer cashed the check, the insurance company had him arrested on 24 counts of arson. With his own insurance claim and testimony from the previous case used against him, the lawyer was convicted of intentionally burning his insured property and was sentenced to 24 months in jail and a $24,000 fine.

While the above story has a happy ending, sanity doesn’t always exist in legal matters, as exemplified by the following actual court cases.

On June 25, 2002, a woman was awarded $14.1 million by a NY state court after she was hit be a subway train. When it was later learned the woman had been attempting to commit suicide by lying on the tracks when the train hit her, the award was reduced 30 percent, to $9.9 million, because of her “comparative negligence.”

In 1998, Terrence Dickson of Bristol, PA, was in the process of burglarizing a house when he trapped himself in the garage which had a malfunctioning door opener and he was unable to re-enter the house because the door locked behind him. He spent eight days in the garage, surviving on a bag of dry dog food and a case of Pepsi. Dickson sued the homeowner’s insurance company, claiming undue mental anguish. The jury agreed and awarded him $500,000. Perhaps he should have sued his parents for mental incapacity as well.

In June 1998, a similar solid citizen, 19-year-old Carl Truman of Los Angeles was awarded $74,000 plus medical expenses when his neighbor ran over his hand with a Honda Accord. Truman was too busy stealing the hubcaps at the time to notice that someone was at the wheel.

In 2000, Amber Carson of Lancaster, PA, sued a restaurant because she slipped on a wet spot and injured herself. Even though the wet spot was created when she threw her drink at her boyfriend, 30 seconds earlier, the restaurant was ordered to pay $113,500 in damages.

Kara Walton of Claymont, DE, tried to sneak through a bathroom window at a nightclub to avoid paying a three dollar cover charge, fell to the floor and knocked out her two front teeth. She sued the nightclub and was awarded $12,000 plus dental expenses.

In January 2000, Kathleen Robertson of Austin, TX, sued a furniture store after breaking her ankle tripping over her own son who was running amuck inside the store. She was awarded $780,000.

In November 2000, Merv Grazinski of Oklahoma City purchase a brand new 32-foot Winnebago motor home. On his first trip, Mr. Grazinski merged onto the freeway, set the cruise control to 70 mph and left the driver seat to go into the back and make himself a cup of coffee. Not too surprisingly to most people with an IQ above that of a turnip, the motor home crashed and overturned. Mr. Grazinski sued Winnebago for not indicating in the handbook that he could not actually do this. He was awarded $1,750,000 plus a brand new Winnebago.

Being sane in an insane world can often be a tedious task. But I keep trying.

An Affair

admin — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 12:06:48 +0000

Every Month Chey Mann sends an article of Inspiration

An affair !

You know it is hard to walk away from the hurt you feel after your own partner has an affair and leave you for the person they had the affair with . It is like you want to hurt them so much and you get in this mode where you have to know what is going on in their relationship you work your self into this depression thinking you had done something wrong and want answers!

But when you look at the situation you will find you have not got anything wrong with you and you have done nothing wrong but place your heart into someone elses hands and they threw it away for what you ask?

Now this is where you start to allow what they did over rule you take over you and make you think and say things you may not have ever thought posible . Even your thoughts turn so negative that things start to fall apart in your life and control over what is happening to you is gone!

Now you can fall down only to come out stronger go through this pain that you feel or you can just simply see it is them that has an issue you have not done or said anything different to who you are and now you pay for their mistakes well time to wake up life is about living and living for another is not how life works .We all have to do things and go through things that make us feel bad and not want to be here or feel like this or want to have to get close to anyone again. We have to learn we are who we are and not what others make us so learn right from start to have alittle of your heart in reserve for yourself that way you do not become so dependant on the one that may hurt you and you have enough love for yourself to move on without all the pain and hurt they may have caused you!

Start to do things that you would not have dreamt about before like climb amountain go sky diving or just go for a swim. This will get you back in to feeling more than you have been and get your life on track .Then find the things that you may have put off while with this person now your free to pick it back up !

Life is for living no one said it had to be doom and gloom like we all sometimes think it is go grab yourself a life and feel good that what happened was for the best because they have issues not you become who you want to be and do not alolow anyone to stop you ever again from being happy and on top of the world!

GOODBYE RANDY- HELLO FUN!!!

admin — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 13:18:38 +0000

Goodbye Randy –

He was a sensation that he never meant to be. He was one of the bravest and most courageous individuals I have ever seen, not because he took the impending news of his death so well, but because he took his living days and did them so well.

Randy Pausch, a Carnegie Mellon University professor died on Friday, July 25^th, when he finally succumbed to pancreatic cancer. He was a professor of computer science, human-computer interaction and design, and was recognized as a pioneer of virtual reality research. On campus, he became known for his flamboyance and showmanship as a teacher and mentor and I suppose he will be remembered for that showmanship forever, even by those he didn’t teach in the classroom, but by those he taught by delivering his LAST LECTURE so publicly.

Randy, didn’t mind the thought of dying. He saw this as an adventure. What he minded, was leaving his wife Jai, and his 3 children, Chloe, Dylan and Logan too soon, with too much life still inside him. He was 47. Yet, Randy didn’t die with his DREAMS left inside him.

If you didn’t see his LAST Lecture, you can revisit it here…http://www.cmu.edu/randyslecture/ .

Randy lived to have fun. In fact he said "I mean I don’t know how to not have fun. I’m dying and I’m having fun. And I’m going to keep having fun every day I have left. Because there’s no other way to play it."

He is an amazing example of how one LIVES by CHOICE and NOT DEFAULT. A Lecture you have heard me give OVER and OVER in my writing and in my coaching.

Randy wanted to fulfill all of his childhood dreams before he died. He told a packed auditorium he fulfilled almost all his childhood dreams - being in zero gravity, writing an article in the World Book Encyclopedia and working with the Walt Disney Co. The one that eluded him? Playing in the National Football League. One he didn’t expect? In what he called "a truly magical experience," he was invited to appear as an extra in the new "Star Trek" movie. He got to keep his costume but he gave the $210.00 paycheck to charity.

There is a deep lesson here. WHY oh WHY does it take the imminent threat of dying to make us take action to really LIVE?

We are ALL going to die. There is no way we get to skip that boat. We don’t know when or how, but we know that this is a fact.So why ARE WE WAITING to LIVE?

Is MONEY so important to us, to you – something that we can’t take with us, that you would rather grind out your days raking it in, than knowing that you took the time to experience everything that the world has to offer. All the gifts, and riches of this universe, all your dreams?

How many amazing and beautiful places in the world do you still have to see, want to see? Have you made a list? What rare and incredible creatures have eluded you? Even domestic? Have you seen a moose in person? A seal or a whale? A platypus or Kimodo dragon? What of the incredible fruits and bounty the earth gives up- have you tasted of the land and sea? Have you been open to exploring different cultures and enjoying what makes us so different yet also the same?

Thank you Randy for bringing It HOME. Thank you for being brave enough to LIVE. Dying is the easy part, LIVING is why we have come here. What are you doing about that part?

Hey, it’s a question I ask myself every day.. Unstoppable Frankie Picasso
