🏈-I’m going to tell you a story, one I’ve never told before. I was chillin in the parking lot of a chicken place in Paterson, New Jersey. I can’t remember the name of it, but they were known for their fast food chicken meals and sandwiches.
So, I’m leaning up against the railing outside there talking to a guy I knew from work when all of a sudden this black Range Rover (it was either a Range Rover or a Land Rover) pulls into the parking lot. Antonio Pierce gets out of the vehicle and starts walking toward the front door of the chicken spot.
I guess if you weren’t a New York Giant’s fan you wouldn’t have known who he was, but I knew.
Of course, I called him out, “Yo Antonio! What’s up man!” Like I knew him for 30 years…
He was cool as hell, as most of the Giants were at that time (Ron Dayne and Ralph Brown used to frequent the night club I was bouncing at). He was like, “what’s up,” and continued walking into the store.
When he went inside to order his food, I went to my car to get the New York Giant’s hard hat I just bought for work. I was working as an estimator for a demolition company back then. Anyway, my friend and I went inside to talk with him.
I asked him if I could take a picture with him while I was wearing the hard hat (my arms were bigger than his); 🤣🤣 he just laughed and said okay. And then we sat down, and I asked him a million questions about the Super Bowl they were just in. It was the year they beat the undefeated Patriots.
It was a great day. We had a friendly conversation with a lot of laughter, but I really wish I saved the picture.
I just read an article posted on the Star Ledger Online (NJ Newspaper) that was really about Herm Edwards, head coach of the Arizona Sate Sun Devils and former coach of the New York Jets, that Antonio Pierce was on his staff as a defensive coordinator, but just left to take a job with the Raiders as their new linebackers coach.
That’s the story with AP. He’s a good guy-very personable.
Herm Edwards, om the other hand, is on the hot seat at ASU, but that’s only partly because of Pierce’s departure. Apparently, he lost his offensive coordinator, five other coaches, and his QB and most important player Jayden Daniels is transferring. If that’s not enough, there’s also an investigation going on there for some reason I’m unaware of.
People love Herm Edwards, but his coaching career has been mediocre at best. He’s 25-18 in fours seasons with Arizona State, he was 39-41 in five seasons with the Jets, and 15-33 in his three seasons with the Chiefs.
We’ll see what happens there. Herm might be the next one leaving town.
I’ll admit, I was getting worried about the order I just placed to Info Wars Store dot com. I ordered their Wholefood Multivitamin, their Vitamin C + Zinc with rosehips, and the official End Game Video.
The multivitamin came first in its own box, and the vitamin c came several days later, but the video was nowhere to be found. I waited a week and contacted the Info Wars store. They apologized, and told me there was a issue with the order on their end, and they would fix it.
Well today, a package was delivered. When I opened it, not only was the End Game video in there, but an extra bottle of multivitamins and vitamin c + zinc.
I sent them an e-mail immediately thanking them for their service.
I wrote in the last post, Nooz Now, that people were starting to get back to me because they were having issues posting a book review for Smorgasbord on Amazon’s website.
Last night I tried myself to write a review, and there was a pop-up that said “this account hasn’t met the community guidelines.”
When I clicked the link to see what the guidelines were, it said in order to post a review you have to have purchased at least $50 worth of merchandise from Amazon dot com in order to leave a review.
I sent Amazon an email today, and I wrote, ” I think this is absolutely ridiculous and frankly, not fair. Why is Amazon putting my followers on the spot and forcing them to buy $50 worth of stuff from them before they can leave a review? That’s not fair to me, and that’s not fair to the people who are purchasing my book.
I don’t know if this is the same issue everyone else is having, but this is what happened when I tried to leave a review.
Hey, you know what?
We live in free-market system. You can purchase the book from Barnes and Noble for the same price with no 3rd party involvement, and you can leave a hassle free review within minutes.
David Hatcher Childress was a guest on Coast to Coast AM a year ago. The title of the show was Did the Egyptians Visit the Grand Canyon 1000s of Years Ago? He said in the 1970s, the Brazilian Navy found an ancient Roman shipwreck off the coast of Rio de Janeiro.
When the Brazilian Navy went down to investigate, they found several Roman boats, and Roman coins. Later on, there was an issue because the Italian community began asking questions. They said history showed Romans discovered Brazil and should therefore be granted citizenship.
The Brazilian Navy was then ordered to bury the wreck.
Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories
I would like to apologize to everyone who attempted to leave a review for Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories on Amazon. My friends and supporters are starting to come back to me because they’re having a problem writing reviews; Amazon is not letting them. There’s a pop up message about guidelines or something. I haven’t had time to look into this issue yet, but I will Thursday. If you would still like to write a review, I kindly suggest visiting the Barnes & Noble website instead and writing one there. Like I said, I don’t know what the issue is yet with Amazon so I’m not going to speculate. Thank you for trying, please don’t give up. Head over to Barnes & Noble.
Smorgasbord 2 Catch Up and Relish
It seems like it took forever, but Smorgasbord 2 Catch Up and Relish is near completion! What you see there on the left is the official front and back cover. I’m beyond excited for the release of this book, and I think you’re going to enjoy reading it. Fulton Books in Meadville, Pennsylvania is the publishing company.
Upcoming Projects: I’ve been working on Smorgasbord 3 for a few months now. I don’t want to give away too much too soon, but there will be a third book. The title will be Smorgasbord 3 Poverty & Prophecy, and it’s going to blow you away! Also, I’m thinking about having a Smorgasbord 2 release party somewhere. I will keep you updated and in-the-loop on that.
Well, it’s old news now, but the Rams beat the Bengals and won the Super Bowl! Super Bowl LVI (56) was played last Sunday, February 13th, and it was a close one. The Rams won the game by 3 points with a fourth quarter touchdown pass from Mathew Stafford to Coffee Cup? Oh wait, Copper Kupp. Sorry. 🤣🤣 Up until that point, the Bengals held a 20-16 lead that went all the way down to the wire. To be exact, there was 1:25 left to play when the Rams scored the go-ahead touchdown. Stafford completed 26 out of 40 passes for 283 yards and 3 touchdowns. The Ram’s rushing game was nowhere to be found; Cam Akers ran the ball 13 times for 21 yards and never even reached pay dirt.
Joe Burrow completed 22 passes for 263 yards and 1 touchdown. They were able to run the ball well with Joe Mixon (4.8 yards per carry), and WR Tee Higgins caught 4 passes for 100 yards and 2 touchdowns. In the end though, none of that mattered for the Bengals. On that day, the 13th of February in the year 2022, the Rams were the better team.
♒♓Wow! How fast did the Aquarius birthday season go? I mean seriously, in three more days on the 18th, the sun will move into the astrological sign of Pisces. Honestly, though, I can’t wait. I’m so ready for spring, and I know a lot of you are too. 🌔Currently, the moon is on the 20th degree of fiery Leo, and Venus and Mars are in a body to body conjunction on the 16th degree of Capricorn. Talk about war and peace, huh…
💥Speaking of war, according to Greek Reporter dot com, Russia is now withdrawing its troops from the Ukraine border. I guess they just wanted to get in Ukraine’s face and talk some shit?
💩Oh, BIG STORY here. Eminem kneeled during the half time show.
🏛 I just called the office of the registrar at my alma mater WPUNJ because I wanted some information about registration deadlines. Afterwards, I was scrolling the web, and a story popped up from 2014.
So, five William Paterson University students are or were on trial for the alleged gang rape of a freshman female. The alleged gang rape took place on campus and in a dorm on Tuesday, November 25, 2014.
The five men that were involved all knew each other from the Educational Opportunity Fund (EOF), which offers low-income students an opportunity to go to college with financial aid, preparatory classes and counseling. (Wait a second, wasn’t there just a big issue recently about systemic racism? 😢😢Immigrants and people of color don’t get the same opportunities as white people?)
Well, these five guys (no relation to the restaurant) had a golden opportunity. I told you, all that was bullshit. I can’t speak for other states, but I know for a fact, that New Jersey’s system of higher education has done an amazing job ensuring everyone has a fair and equal opportunity to get educated.
Anyway, there was another incident, but I don’t think it was related. Cherelle Locklear, a 21-year-old junior at WPUNJ committed suicide and her body was found on November 22, 2015. Supposedly, she was raped at an off-campus fraternity house, and her allegations were never investigated. William Paterson University took blame for failing to investigate and paid her family $800,000.
Damn! This isn’t the William Paterson I remember. WTF WPU! Seriously though, this is a shame. I can’t believe it.
🤓I’m gonna drop some real knowledge on y’all. I was totally indoctrinated by the college educational system, and especially because I was a teacher. I believed everything. They used to tell us that inner-city school students are way behind because there’s no money to get them the tools they need to be successful and compete with schools in higher income areas. I was on board with everything-fighting for my students. I was so gung-ho.
And then I get into the classroom, and see students throwing scientific calculators worth hundreds of dollars at the floor and walls. Literally, trying to break them.
And I just sat there for a brief moment watching this, and to myself, I’m like, “wow, if you only knew how hard people fight to get you the shit you need, and here you are trying to break a calculator your parents would have to work two weeks to pay for.”
Case in point-Don’t believe the hype!
Second Case in point-In order for schools to be successful, the students have to be successful, and money has nothing to do with it. The best schools are those where parents, teachers, and administrators have found a middle ground-all coming together, working in unison for the betterment of the child. And of course, once the student sees this cooperation between teachers and parents, their behavior miraculously changes.
Alright my friends, have a wonderful night and a blessed Wednesday. Stay warm!
I was wondering what Meta meant every time I logged into my Facebook account. Anyways, Texas Attorney General, Ken Paxton, just filed a lawsuit in a state district that claims, Meta, Facebook’s parent company, has been “storing millions of biometric identifiers.”
This is a win for the citizens.
Biometric identifiers are retina and iris scans, voice prints, or a record of hand and face geometry. And were are they getting all this from? From the photos and videos we upload to their services!
We wish Mr. Paxton luck in his fight against Big Tech and it’s overreaching abuse against the people of this country.
This is a pretty big story. Check out the link below.
⚾Ex-major league baseball player, Jeremy Giambi (brother of former New York Yankee, Jason Giambi) is dead at 47 years-old. The cause of death has been ruled a suicide.
💥According to an article published on Daily Mail dot com, Americans living in Ukraine have 48 hours to leave. If in the event, Putin decides to begin his attack, the Unites States military will not be able to rescue them.
☠Speaking of deaths, a month after dying, Bob Saget’s death is now said to have been caused by blunt trauma to the head. Apparently, they’re saying he fell, hit his head on something, and then went to sleep and died. Something doesn’t seem right there.
❤In three days it will be the day we’ve all been waiting a year for, Valentine’s Day! This year, Valentine’s Day falls on a Monday, which makes it easy to forget, which is also why I’m reminding you. Don’t forget about your loved ones.
💸Today it was reported that inflation is at 7.5%, the highest its been since 1982.
MASK MANDATES AND REQUIREMENTS: All you tyrannical mask Nazis, yeah I’m talking to you all you local businesses and places that employ Americans (the Amazons, the Targets, the Walmarts, the Hurst Publications, etc.); Even if Nancy Pelosi decided to lift the House mask mandate, she is still going to be sued for violating the United States Constitution.
We’re getting tired of that bullshit line, “We’re a private company, and wearing a mask is our policy.” You’re still violating human rights, and I hope someone sues the shit out of all of you.
In the beginning, it was agreed that if someone contracted and became sick with COVID, they would wear a mask to prevent them from spreading the virus to someone else, however, once those in power realized how hard the pushback was against wearing the mask, they forced everyone to wear it for nothing other than the humor it provided. That’s fucked up.
Normal healthy people weren’t supposed to be forced into wearing masks all day while working-sometimes 10 hours per day. We tried to tell you, but you were so sold out to the agenda. It’s unsanitary, unhealthy, and it restricts our breathing.
So, in essence, our government’s greed for power, created that situation. America is a nation that’s supposed to be ruled by laws, not by the whim of politicians or majorities. You (government) can’t allow the system to degenerate into mob rule (democracy), and then pick and choose who you want to arrest, prosecute, or call an enemy of the state.

So, what’s going on? How ya’ll doing? Time flies, it really does. It feels like yesterday we were just talking about new year’s resolutions, which I hope you haven’t forgotten about. It’s important to have goals. There’s a bunch of videos on YouTube by Earl Nightingale, but in one of them specifically, he states the difference between people who are successful and those who are unsuccessful is that successful people know where they’re going-and I agree, 100%. He also said you will become whatever you think about, so it’s important to focus on what you want out of life. But yeah, goals are important because they’re like new year resolutions. They’re both things we’d like to achieve, aim for, and hopefully conquer, but more importantly, they give us direction.
Did you watch that short video I posted to this site on February 7th? That book, Legal Guidelines for Unlicensed Practitioners is amazing for many reasons. I just read a little bit about our government and Constitution here in the United States, but it’s purpose is to educate and inform people who are going into business for themselves as unlicensed professionals.
After I published the video, a few things came to mind that I wish came to me before I recorded it. The January 6th incident at the White House; there’s a group of elected officials in this country who keep calling what took place there and insurrection, and you know what, by definition, I guess they could call it an insurrection, but in the United States, “We The People” do have the right to abolish and start a new government when our government no longer serves us.
It is our governments fault that incident took place, because for one, yes when there’s voter fraud, the government is no longer serving the best interest of the people, and two, what you saw on January 6th at the White House was mob rule. That’s what happens when the Constitutional Republic degenerates into a democracy.
In the video I made, I read it right from the book, a democracy is an extreme form of government, it’s mob rule. We’re not a democracy, we’re a Constitutional Republic, but the politicians and elected officials never call America what it really is, they refer to it as a democracy. And the reason for that is because they’re limited in power and influence under a Constitutional Republic.
So, in essence, our government’s greed for power, created that situation. America is a nation that’s supposed to be ruled by laws, not by the whim of politicians or majorities. You (government) can’t allow the system to degenerate into mob rule (democracy), and then pick and choose who you want to arrest, prosecute, or call an enemy of the state.
Donald Trump talked about making America Great Again, well let’s do that. Those in government, our elected officials, and politicians can start Making America Great Again by telling the truth.
Get out there, grab that microphone, and say, “THE UNTED STATES IS A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC WITH DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED OFFICIALS.”

Over the last century, various forms of ultraviolet light has been used to disinfect surfaces. People are going to these UV sources more now than ever before, especially in public places because of COVID.
A new study was published in Applied and Environmental Microbiology, and researchers from the University of Colorado discovered a spot in the UV spectrum that’s safer for human exposure, while at the same time being extremely effective at killing the COVID virus.
The article is titled; Use of UV Rays and HEPA Filters to Kill COVID-19 Virus. Read it below.
