PostHeaderIcon Movie Stars and Western Movies Took My Parents Place as a Child Causing Real Life Confusion

Many of you probably had experiences with movies like mine when you were growing up. Your parents (if you were lucky enough to have at least one) would use the TV or Movies to keep you occupied (out of their hair). My Dad would give me two dollars every day for entertainment so I spent it mostly on movies. Yes, every day, and keep in mind that this was the early fifty’s when most theaters were 25 cents and the most expensive theater in town was seventy five cents. The same money would be around twenty five dollars today.


At the time most movie houses were showing double features and some had three features with two cartoons and a serial. And because of my love for movies I saw every one of them at least twice and some many times. This went on for years and of course couldn’t have been good for me. However it gave me a focused education in films and stories and perhaps a little confusion about real life.


People in movies don’t have to follow through with work and school and oh yeah, the big one, Love. The music plays and they simply are already a brave policeman or cowboy or engineer or even president. The heros in movies seem to do little or no work to be anything they want. I Expected no less for myself than rocket speed to sucess.


Somehow in my little kid brain I replaced my parents love and parts of real life with western movies and their stars. You can imagine why nice family type movies and westerns were so appealing to me with no brothers and sisters and living with my grandmother. In later years it was shocking to discover my movie heroes didn’t give a crap what I felt or know me from Adam. “Gosh Mr. Rogers, don’t you remember me? I was the kid in the fifth row back?”


“Sorry, I don’t give autographs” he said. “Huh?” I said as he walked away. Now I was a young adult when this true event happened, but still I stood there sort of in a daze until my wife came looking for me. She said, “What’s wrong with you?”

“Roy Rogers just gave me the buzz off,” I said. “He must have known it was me that threw rocks at the screen.”


“Oh, don’t be silly” she said. “He wouldn’t give me an autograph” I said. “Oh is that all, so what?” she said. “Why would that bother you so much?” she said. “I don’t know, it just does that’s all” I said. There was this little pause and she said, “For your information they live like three blocks away from us. You mean you didn’t know!” she said.


“No, I don’t keep track of where people live,” I said. “I see Dale Evans every week at the store or post office. She’s very nice” she said. “Oh great, my childhood hero lives close enough to hear trigger fart and I can’t even get an autograph?” “It’s almost like not being able to talk to your uncle or something because he’s too darn famous.”


“Listen honey,” she said, “Trigger can’t fart anymore and besides you’re taking this way too seriously.” “Yea,” I said. “So what can we do to find out why it affects me so much?” “You saw too many of those westerns I think. Didn’t you do anything else?” She said. “Sure, lots of things,” I said. “But the movies made the stuff I did more dangerous.”


She said “Now that I think about it most of the jobs you do are related in some way to movies and now you’re a screenwriter.” she said. “You seem to be obsessed with not only stars but also in the locations where they were filmed, like Lone Pine for example. We found every rock that Randolph Scott used in his westerns.”


“It feels like I’m looking for my long lost family.” I said. “She said “Remember the actress last year that was kidding you about one of your scripts? She knew you were only kidding and laughed with you about it. Why didn’t she affect you the way Roy did?” “It’s probably because she’s a new star of today’s movies,” I said, “And I didn’t grow up watching her.” “Remember what Jack Palance said to you about movies? He said you were full of crap about them that they were only movies.” “Yeah,” I said, “he said he only made films for the money and could care less and “You should do the same.”.


“OK,” she said, “I have an idea. Why don’t you write about it? You write about everything else so maybe other people have the same problem or worse they let it happen to their kids.” “That’s right,” I said, “it is happening to kids today isn’t it, only in a little different way with music lyrics and the general bad behavior of actors.”


“Yes,” she said, “only its worse now and these kids won’t get over it maybe ever.” “OK, that’s what I’ll do is give my opinion about how movies can be improved and still make the studio money.” “So you’re going to tell them to remove the violence and sex and make lame one hundred and twenty minutes of nothing? I can hear the laughing already.”


“No, of course you need these elements of real life in any story. You must have a good story and a reason for things to happen. Some movies today start out dark and evil and progress to dark and evil and end with dark and evil and that’s no way to tell a story. For a film to be successful the audience must tell friends about it. One big problem is the high cost that scares investors into making something safe.


What they need to make movies safer for investors is a new kind of testing. Why make a film unless you KNOW people will like. I can’t believe investors take such big chances with all that money. It’s possible to make good honest pictures that people will love and still make money for the studio.” “You know that not one person in Hollywood is going to pay attention to you don’t you?” she said.


“I know, but it doesn’t matter about that because Hollywood’s days are numbered anyway. They are so mixed up they can’t even make an original movie or endorse an original screenplay. Can you see them making Rocky 15?


Good actors have little to work with in Hollywood and that’s a shame. That’s why indie films are getting bigger and better every day and sooner or latter with the combination of pissed actors and increased technology a new generation of indie films will put Hollywood to shame.”

PostHeaderIcon Successful People Life – Successful People Have Vision, Purpose in Life

Successful People Life

Yesterday I experienced something that really made me appreciate the vision I have been blessed with to become my own boss and create my own destiny. As many of you may already know, I was a police officer for 20 plus years prior to becoming a full time entrepreneur. I had an occasion to visit that same police department yesterday in order to pick up some equipment of mine that had been stored there. I was in the garage with a friend and former co-worker when I noticed a coffin in the corner of the room. I asked my friend what the coffin was for and he related that it was for the Honor Guard to practice and train with in order to be prepared for funeral details.

All I could think of at that time was that for many of my former co-workers that box was the only way they would ever leave that world. I don’t mean in some horrible line of duty death either. I mean that most of them had stopped dreaming long ago and they hung on to the “reality” of exchanging time for money and having a safe secure place to work. Most people today actually die at the age of 25 but don’t get buried until they are 75, because they forget about their dreams and passions and just go through the motions of doing what is necessary to get them through the day. Successful People Life

Before entering police work I had worked in just about every job available to me as a high school graduate. I had actually taken a shot at being a “business owner” once before, but failed miserably because I had no education in the principles of business management and was not disciplined in self-management of myself, as many of you can probably relate to. I became discouraged and retreated back to my comfort zone; working for someone else.

As a young boy I had always dreamed of becoming a police officer but for years I was kind of a rebel and I feared entering a line of work that was so rigid and regulated. After my second son was born however, a good secure job looked more appealing to me than ever before. Once immersed within the bureaucracies of municipal government, rife with a scared, cover your butt mentality along with the union employee mindset of entitlement, I became frustrated. I had always been a free spirit and independent thinking person and I was raised with a work ethic based on giving my employer an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay, no matter what I was doing, or who I worked for. Working as a police officer it became apparent to me over time that I was just a body in a uniform performing the assigned duties of the day. No different than any other member of the department who could have easily been wearing that uniform completing the same assignments. Successful People Life

PostHeaderIcon Saints Life Story – Miracles in the Life of Saint John Vianney

Saints Life Story

There were many miracles in the life of Saint John Vianney the Cure of Ars. The most famous possibly was surviving an attack by the devil which set his bed on fire.

And the Miraculous appearance of Our Lady, but in addition there were two miracles that we want to tell you about today that you may not be familiar with. These two are the multiplication of the flour in the kitchen of La Providence, his school just across the street for his rectory, and the miracle of the wine.

The Miracle of the Multiplication of the Flour.

Once, at La Providence, there was not enough flour to bake even an oven full of bread. The mill couldn’t grind the wheat that had been sent over. There was just enough flour to bake three loaves of bread. When they had seen there was not enough flour to feed all the girls in the school, they went to John Vianney.

He told them to use the little they had.

They took the small amount of flour they had, and began to knead it. The trough filled, overflowing with dough as on days when they had a large sack of flour. Had John Vianney prayed

Did he ask the Lord to multiply the loaves as He had, on the Mount of the Beatitudes? It is definite that a Miracle was granted by the Lord for the John Vianney’s spiritual children. Was it by his intercession? What do you believe? Saints Life Story

The Miracle of the Wine.

One day, John Vianney came to his people, advising them a full cask of wine had split and the contents had spilled onto the sand floor. Sure enough, when they investigated, the cask was empty. They tried to retrieve whatever they could of the clearest wine from the sand. They were barely able to collect two little pails of clear wine.

They poured what little they had into a cask which was nearly empty. To their amazement, they kept drawing from the cask for days, till there was nothing left!

Beside the now empty cask was another cask of wine, half full. They decided to pour the 50 liters of wine from the half full cask, to the empty one beside it, which had a capacity to hold 200 liters of wine.

Jokingly, one of the women teased, “See if the cask is full!” Imagine the look on her face when the other woman replied, “It is! Look, I can touch the wine with my finger.” Saints Life Story

PostHeaderIcon Did school uniforms RUIN my life? ( uniforms good or bad )( pro’s and con’s of school uniforms )?

School uniforms comepletly ruined my life and took away all chances i had to sucess! After uniforms came to my school, I lost all my previous friends, I was unable to draw and paint in art class, I couldn’t go out for sports because i was no better than the next guy, and no one dated because they liked the person, we HAD to date the person who sat on our left in homeroom (hopefully it was the opposite sex!) If you HAVE to express yourself through your cloths like i do, go be friends with Paris Hilton! as far as people saying “Uniforms are for the military, join if you want to wear em.” That was to be the most truest thing i ever heard! I mean, I talked to my broker the other day, he was wearing a wife beater and a miniskirt. I trust him with my money! I hope people try to understand that uniforms aren’t the devil. If kids can’t afford them i’m sure school can get funds through fund raisers federal grants and other things they don’t have to buy a new score board or uni’s for some sport

PostHeaderIcon Do people who hate(d) or were socially awkard in high school have problems later on in life?

I’m quiet and socially awkard, and I don’t really have that many friends. The ones i have aren’t popular at all. However, I would say, that I am a pretty confident girl in many areas and many people say i’m pretty, and i’ve got a nice sense of style. The thing is, i really hate my high school experience so far and I see all the other kids in my school having far better times in school. Does this mean I might have social problems later on in life? Does high school determine your sucess later on in life?
