Why I Miss Her So Much!

As this world we live in spirals down the toilet, I miss Jennifer more and more. I miss having her with me for so many reason’s. I miss having her ear to bend about politics and world happenings. While I do fortunately have friends that aling with my beliefs, and that I can commiserate with about all of the shit happening in the world. It is not the same as what I had with her. I miss that so very much.

The world continues to get crazier and crazier. Sadly I am fearful we are getting closer and closer to both a civil war and frankly an all out World War. The Trump administration is so corrupt and continues to shit on the constitution and sadly way to many people are fine with it.

Their smoke screens to take attention off the Epstein files get bigger and bigger. The whole Venezuelan thing is a joke. Everyone thinks it’s about drugs and the oil reserves, but I personally believe that the oil is just a secondary benefit for Trump, and that is somewhat backfiring on him. Most of the major oil companies have invested in major projects in other parts of the world (e.g. Canada) to source heavier types of crude oil. They are not going to walk away from those projects to pursue projects in Venezuela where the stability is very much in question.

I firmly believe that the reason Trump started all of this is the rare earth minerals in Venezuela. Donnie Jr and several of his cronies have been attempting for several years to get their foot in the door to get these resources and were being stymied by the Maduro government. Remove him and the road block is removed. So we will see how long until Donnie Jr and his cronies get in there. I am betting they are probably already in there. I am betting that Trump’s administration is making this one of the conditions that the interim Venezuelan President must agree to. I feel that the Greenland nonsense is also for these same reasons.

Was Maduro a bad man? Yes, but he is probably not even in the top ten of bad people around the world. So why him? Because his country had something the Trump family wants to further line their pockets.

The Minnesota shooting (in my opinion) is yet another smoke screen, to distract and shift focus away from the Epstein situation. This one is particularly sad, because it was totally preventable by both parties. I loved the interview with Jesse Ventura outside of the high school that he attended. Jesse is famous for calling things as he sees them. If you have not seen the interview, look it up on YouTube, it is worthy of viewing. In the interview Jesse said we are now a third world country, and I have to agree with him.

The way this whole ICE situation is going is so much like the Gestapo of 1930’s Germany that it is scary. Anyway, it breaks my heart and I would love to have Jennifer here with me. However, in the same breath, I am glad she is not, because this would be killing her.

Last night I watched the Green Bay vs Chicago football game. What a game that was. The fourth quarter of that game was very much like the MSU vs Illinois State game. On the edge of your seat, waiting to see which team was going to blink first. Well Chicago pulled it off. I am so happy for my friend CD. He is a diehard Bear’s fan and I can only imagine how crazy he must have been while that fourth quarter played out.

I would have to give the MSU game the nod for the more exciting game, but it would be by a very slim margin.

This week I got some bad news. My dear friend Geoff Gallus lost his brother Mike. I feel terrible for the Gallus family. So I have been praying for them. Death is not a easy thing to accept. I especially feel for his parents. They are such good people. The family recently celebrated Geoff’s mother’s 90th birthday. So I am glad they got to do that before Mike’s death. So please say a prayer for them during this difficult time.

Like I said I miss Jennifer for so many things and this is yet another reason. Jennifer and I have known Geoff since 7th grade at South Central junior high school. Geoff and I both attended Carroll College. We lived on the same floor in St Charles Hall (4th South). If that building could tell stories it would be crazy. Geoff was a year older than us. So he was legal to drink earlier. Geoff let me use his Drivers license, in case I ever needed it my Freshman year in College. Fortunately I never needed to use it. However I had it.

I wish she was here to hug me and tell me that she loved me. Well enough for today.
