OH GOOD GOD--
trying to read this raised my BP by 20 points -- talk about a way to
RAISE a stress level... deciphering the ramblings and meanderings of one
who is a squirrel obsessed, believes he was michael jackson costume
designer and, at the same time, is in a drug and alcohol induced
euphoria!
too many nuts or glasses of the Boone's Farm Strawberry Hill, methinks.
please make it stop!!
as god is my witness, i will never be hungry again!

Hers my recent way to deal with health and stress issues.... I hope this
helps Mopoers,, as I have much
experiance with loss and stress and all.. Plus ive made some really
stupid decisions along my life path...
so heres my Drug... call it body- mind - spirit approach
1.) first I realize I have so little control of events anywhere and
yet if you try to be positive you may effect people and things you never
are even aware of.. ( In good and also negative ways also)
2.) So even tho you cant change the past you can change the future so I
attempt to correct what I did
wrong.. Its interesting to do this.... in Business... and in Life.... I
call it practice.. so each event becomes a way to improve. each order
becomes practice to see how to improve... doing this makes the job less
stress and
hopefully apparent in the work. This used to be called " work ethic" and
when USA stopped having a good attitude toward jobs they lost the edge.
3.) Ok health wize... I find Humor to be the most cathartic... because
ive found all people want basically the same things no matter at what
social level or place in life... they want to be appreciated, Loved, and
feel they
made a differance to someone or something.. and they like the basics
like -shelter and food and they have some interests
like sports or entertainment or nature.... etc... Laughing at myself is
Fun.. because I feel like taking myself serious is funny in itself..
Laughing takes away the fear... people that are critical of others
become thier own victims
because they live by that criteria .. so they cannot handle failure... I
embrace it as a learning process..
How we learn is by practice on about anything...plus if you like what
you do,, its not practice its Fun..
If you dont like Your job and spend 75% of time being unhappy.. then
build your life around what you love
,quit the job.. and restructure.. because if you save 1 million or more
and wait till your 75 to retire to spend it
you may not have health to enjoy it.... I live day to day because how
can I plan?? Did Jackson ?
so Today i will give thanks for one more day.
The hardest for me is that sometimes it seems all the bad stuff happens
the harder I try... so recently I thought... these ar challenges to
reach me more... not destroy me... because you really get to know
yourself when under duress or the shit hits the fan.... so I have
learned alot by adverse situations.. as soon as I feel like im together
something real stupid will happen and make me see that I can be thrown
off easy so.. Im not really that
together... so it wakes me up and keeps me humbled.. and thats a Good
thing if yiou think.
4.) I discovered that eating is a part of the forumula as good diet can
help the whole process. So I try
to eat vegatarian mostly.. some seafood and It helps to reduce stress to
do daily walks... matter of fact
Good morning america sais that walking is one of the best ways to get
fit.. as its low stress on the knees and all the bones.. Plus excercize
makes natural endorphins because all the system gets going... also it
gets blood flow and oxygen to the brain and all.. some wine or beer once
in awhile in moderation isnt bad...
and I love juices and nuts and fruits.. all this stuff energizes and
cleans the system
I ride a Bicycle and I will start a weight train as I just got some 1955
vintage barbells.
5.) Vitamins and nutrition - I think vitamins are great as also herbs..
Ginko Biloba-C- all the B - Zinc- Naicin
Garlic - all have the ability to clean the body and boost immune and
give the Body the ability to handle stress.
6.) Then I like diversions like garage sales, and art events , hearing
music, televison, movies and seeing Nature..
and just driving around looking at stuff and discovering new things....
Looking at Movie posters is fun also.:)
7.) as far as dealing with loss of money and stuff and
relationships... which to me seems the core of peoples woes..
I just do this... I admit im sad or stressed... and sometimes lay in bed
froze with fear.. and lose all hope...
so basically I confront my real feelings and admit Im scared shitless...
Then I get up and try to get balance
useing the Body - mind - spirit approach.. and do what I call " Plant
seeds" seeds of hope, and of ideas and visons,, some grow,, some
wither.. but you are 100% garenteed of no progress if you just sit there
and cry.
Then I say wow Thanks God that I was able to even see and experiance
what I have as so many people have
got less and so thanks... and well tommorrow Ill try again and perhaps
if I cannot get better maybe ill help someone else get better and that
will be good.
As far as whos God.. I say hey who ever you are Im not that bright... so
please guide me as all this religious stuff is confusing ( heck I cant
even spell) so guide me to do something that will help he others,..
Then I think of people I hurt and said bad stuff that knocked down thier
spirit and wish they have peace and love and find happiness even people
that hurt me as we all seem connected by a Universal spirit.
so after a day of this.. the hurts melt away and I get a peace to be
able to look forward to next day.
also the awareness that part of life is daily challenges like dealing
with adversity and sadness that may
be from the universal family.. Like Michael Jackson who was symbolic to
many people...
I also look at past people that inspire like in my case
entertainers...and listen to thier Life storys of how they overcame
tradgedy, suffering, rejection, and how they also handle success.....
because success can be a double edged sword...
In the final anyalisis.. we are all a step away from failure and a step
away from success..
The other day I bought a friend a inspirational clock.. Its said " If
you come to the end of your path,do not turn
back continue on and make your own trail "
well thats how I have been coping.... I personally believe the Drugs
they are using to medicate stress and sleep disorders are a sham/// If
people were taught to get balance by natural stuff they would find peace
Yes I aggree im not the norm, as our economic system was based on making
people think that acrcrewing
stuff was a measure of success and accomplishment... and thats why peole
Like madeoff litterally madeoff with some very succesfull folks entire
Life savings..
when we all see that if we take care of each other and the planet and
that we are all dependent on each other
bigtime, then we will get peace.
I toast a Glass of water to you all
Happy 4th everyone/

well I think the armor we made back in 83 was used by Jackson and is on
display in the Grammy museum
I was watchin CNN and they showed it....
We made Legg gauntlets ( scaled leg armor ) and the ones they had
looked like ours however modified
The story behind the armor - I was at a auction and bought a semi load
of white Footbal shoulder pad parts,,
I called Lucasfilm to sell it to be used as Stormtrooper armor... they
had just shelved the Star wars franchise.
So I called Doud white makeup effects... he bought some for a gilm
called metalsorm... Peter mosen of starlog
Bought some to make a ceylon centurion and also a Rock group called
THOR.... also Clyde Calwell a artist
of Dungeon and dragons fame used it for packageing..\
Basically we took the pieces and plated them in Chrome... sold through
Morris costumes in Charlotte NC.
We also made some spiked leather and accessorys and advertised in back
of Starlog.... sold as
Warrior fantasy Armor..... actually used a local Female impersonator in
the photos because he was the only
one that would dress that wild in 1983.... Funny eh?? Now is the norm..
go figure,,,,
So it appears Michael Jackson did use our armor.... or at least
parts..
we also had contacted WB about making Mad max jackets as we had the
exact parts.... However they wanted 50K upfront//// so we never did
them
The idea was to have Miller and Gibson sign them and do a collectable
piece.
Ohhhh.... when I bid on the shoulder pad parts... the auctioner thought
I was a nut as no one wanted the
Lot... so when I offered 2.00 for a 48 foot truck full... he pointed and
said SOLD!!!
It cost several 100 to move
Our 1st order we sold 12,000.00 not bad ROI eh?
We sold it until like 86 when i thought my son would wonder what the
heck his parents did .
well when he was older he said what?? you gave it away.. and cried...
and said " I couldd have made Robocop costume of that !!
