And you never





    Ask Questions when G0d's on you're side.... At the Behest of my Hasadeem Neighbors they suggested, I call a Lawyer named " Scott" to handle my 71 in a 40, and fail to signal tickets on the FDR. Forking over $300 to "Scott", he got me a court date for May 7, 2020. This Past week  the office of "Scott" notified me that the BOTH tickets were Dismissed........ The  " UnSafe Lane Change" ticket, Required me to Travel to Hempstead. LI and sit in a crowded room, while waiting for a Court Prosecutor to call on me. After 16:31, The prosecutor reviewed my Ticket and  Offered "NO Points and a $250 Fine " " Can I counter Offer " Nope,  Despite proclaiming my innocence I took the deal, avoiding a trial. 22:11 later, Hearing room 2, the Judge read the verdict, and send me off to the cashier to Pay...The Stats 171 total minutes of " having nothing better to do"

Protect and




     Serve, Does not Mean you should Trump up False Charges against Law Abiding motorists. Twice this Past Month I was victimized by both the NYPD and the Nassau County PD. In Nassau for not having my Actual Insurance card, and " Unsafe Lane change" and in NYC for Speeding and failing to signal. Seems reasonable on the Flat foots end. However in the First instance, the FF knew that i was insured, and insisted on ticketing me, for that. The "Unsafe Lane Change" of which I signaled and the FF didn't see was because a car ahead of him " Stopped Short" and he had to stop short as well as to avoid hitting him.  For the Insurance ticket, Logic dictates you submit a copy of the card and it gets dismissed, However NC insists on having what is like tantamount to you're parents. Grandparents and other relatives submitting a note to a Teacher as to why you did Not do you're homework. In Short an Original letter only from the Home office of the company, on company letterhead.must be typed and signed, provide policy number, with every detail related to the car amongst other details etc. I do plan on fighting the " Unsafe lane" ticket and avoid perhaps Points, and the $288 fine with only G0d knows how many other fees attached to it..... As for the NYPD..............

If you See



                   Something, Do you Say Something?. It was a Hot May Afternoon on a crowded uptown Q Train, where my eyes gazed on a Skittish,  thin, meek looking middle aged man wearing a Winter Jacket, Rubbing prayer beads and Reciting Prayer phrases Loud enough to raise concern. Nervously and with out wanting to Profile, I got off at the next stop and Switched carts.... An off color remark at a Junior High School Basketball finals has landed yours truly into some hot water. Working the live Feed at the Game, Irresponsibility but with out Malice, I made some unfortunate comments both about individuals, as well as institutions. The Blow back was Severe, and after listening to the replays, It Horrified me, the Hurt and Harm I caused The people. Rest Assured my Broadcasting career is over, However BigJelly TV would still be operating, with exciting and new content........ Stat of the Day 1:43.17 Seconds from Time in the Pump to the first click to Fill up my car when showing approx 40 miles to the fill up. That Means, I probably need a a lot of help, or I waste approx Sixty Noine Hours a year filling up Gasoline..........

Thank G#)D .....



   

       Over the Weekend, Our USPS driver, Delivers Boxes to the close by Storage and shipping Facility. Seems like a win-win situation for everyone, he gets to unload freight and I can get the boxes quicker, That is until a Pipe burst at the Storage Place and Lucky for me I had Two large boxes on the Front line of the Water Rush. Leaving the Place I Thanked  my Creator, Lord and Savior that I didn't receive more Boxes on that Fateful day. I thanked the Storage manager for his help, and as I was leaving he called out " Laniado, Wait you have more Boxes". And Sure enough I got 4 more boxes and how fortunate was I that they were all on the front lines,  perhaps they weren't killed, but really looked like they went through Hell. Not to Sound like an apostate, or a heretic, I wanted to renege on my Thanks to G#)D, I thanked him for preventing it from being worse, and it turned out worse than worse... I know I know...........When one parks on the Street and does Not Put Coins in the Meter is it Stealing?........ WHAT IS  "WHATS DOING"?  The Most popular Greetings utilized by Syrian women......

Should We





                have been grateful to having  felt -10 Degrees in NYC while residents of the Midwest were Feeling -50.  Does that put things into Perspective? Comparing the Weather to Life, That even though we don't exactly have it good, We should be grateful for what we got ?.......... Stat of  the day It Takes One Minute Twenty four. Six Noine Seconds to ride up the Escalator at the 86th Street Subway Station......For the past couple weeks I've been attending the Chabad Synagogue on Shabbat. The Torah Reading is like the NFL Draft, After Each reading Portion the Rabbi gives a speech about the reading, for the first Three Portions, The sermon is roughly 10+ minutes and around 5 minutes after till the 7th Round. It takes over an hour, and the message is usually the same.....The draw to the Minyan is that former Stern Show Whack Packer Ellegant Elliot Offen.  Having Previous Run ins with  "Eleganta", I wished him a Good Shabbos, and was Shocked that he remembered it was me who was Screaming out to him while he was runs on the Upper East Side. Raucously, He berated me for " having marbles in my mouth" and that I should not Harass him while he's running in G STRING LINGERIE RIGHT, The Poor Rabbi got into between fearing a confrontation  He accepted my Apology, and perhaps an Invite for a Sabbath Dinner......

On The Coldest



    Day of the Year, would you jump out of your car to chase loose Bills Blowing in the Below Zero Winds?  Unclear where the bills were coming i gathered  $22 ( 1 ten 2 fives 2 ones) , with out a clue of whom they belong, I asked the inebriated Russian guy if it belonged to him, as he was too busy chasing the rest of the Money. The local Stores seemed puzzled by my question, I wanted to leave a note with my number, but that seemed odd, and really unfair to the poor sap whose number I would have left ......Once again BJ T.V. erred going to the wrong women's March in NYC. Too much Estrogen, or perhaps Anti- Semitism lead to a split in the movement, We were by Columbus circle, the real action was by Foley Square..... A Commercial van  Hit me in the back at a low speed on the corner of McDonald ave and Ave P, Feeling the Jolt,  I went outside to survey any Potential Damage, The Perpetrator threw up his hands Gesturing " What " with out even offering a simple apology. Fortunately he understood the foreign language profanity i hurled his way..........

Does it make





          me a bad Person, When I don't rejoice in others Success, as a matter of fact not only do I Not  rejoice, but i am aghast, belligerent, makes my blood boil, that leads into a Foreign Language profanity laced Tirade when someone beats me to a parking spot........Signs of aging, While on the left coast I kept nudging my Be throed on How expensive Gasoline was........Uber is the way to go out there its significantly cheaper than NYC, the drivers seem eager to help, especially this one driver of " Turkish" Descent who wasn't aware of any of the Turkish references i made to him, Was telling us Which areas were the nicest, The cleanest, the Richest people live and Where they block off streets specifically for their holidays or whatever.  Studying computers, all his professors were also a certain way, and he was simply amazed by it. He Even had some of them as friends. Made for a really comfortable ride, Especially when my wife told him we were Jewish.................

A few Hours



 into 2019, is it over yet. Feels like that  Long  un air conditioned ride in a Brown Station Wagon  With a Few Miles Behined us  and Ten thousand More to go (JT).......... Some Observations about the Greater Los Angeles Area. Despite The Beaches and Warm Weather, people are just about as Fit as I am or some Shlub in the Midwest. Traffic is not Exactly NYC Traffic, but none the less pretty Bad, the Only Difference No One Honks! Through Thirteen Uber Rides over our Three Day Stay a total of 4 Honks Were registered. With all the Hype Given to Global warming and all, One would think that Recycling, Composting etc would be a top Priority for the Bright Red State!. To The Chagrin and outrage of my bethrothed, Even in the Upscale areas, Recycling is a Rarity and finding one of those Special Recycling Garbage Cans in the Streets is like Spotting Hasadeems at a Strip Club. As Good Guests to the city, We did our part in conserving Water, Even with the Extra Fifteen Minute Plus Showers, But Seems the Locals know how to beat the System, And on a final Note The Getty Museum is  not only highly Reccommened, For its Collections, Culture, Gardens and Views, but a really fun Tram Ride up to the Museum and Well made Peanut Butter and Jam Sandwiches, An LA Bargain at $5 a Pop.........
