Hi folks, happy halloween!
So far, my spell checker is not checking, so once again please excuse the
misspellings.
Hello? Add executives! I have a few tips for you.
Stop with the slow motion camara shots of happy families playing on the
beach. It makes me puke.
Families just don't do that, by merely getting a newsletter for alergy
medicine.
I love the guy in the add for erectile dysfunction medicine throwing a
football through a swinging tire??? How symbolic.
No more piano plinking, please.
Hello? Banks, STOP TELLING ME YOU WANT TO KNOW MY HOPES AND DREAMS!!!! You
want my money so shut up already.
Web MD, hello? People don't nod and look at their computer screens with
concern on their faces like that. Enough!
Kieser Perminente does not care about my well-being!!
Home Depot: electric guitars, drum sets and orchestras don't mix. SHUT
UP!!!
No more jangling guitars. No more humming. No more soulful wailing. STOP
NOW, CUZ I HEREBY MAKE IT ILLIGAL TO DO THOSE THING IN ADDS. SHUT UP
ALREADY!!!
Go away Cathrine Zeta Jones Douglas! You should be married to yourself.
Stop showing that guy upchuck a piece of beef jerky!! Yuk.
Dear Coors: "I am looser. And I drink Coors light"???? Shut up!! And
another thing. Chicks in bikinis don't roll around in the snow for gods
sake!!
I can't take it anymore.(sob)
Now, what was the reason I didn't want to pay for that crap for all those
years? I mean If it's free.., but pay for it???
Oh yeah, Circuit City, why is there an egg yoke in your logo? Just
wondering.
By the way, some of you may have heard me ranting about McGriddles. I take
it back. They rock. Also the little monsters that they were selling are
hella cool.
On another note, gather round kiddies cuz I'm gonna start playing a game
with y'all. It's called N.T.L. Name that line. As in movie line. You don't
have to email me back or anything just keep score at home. Okay??
NTL:"If only you could see what I've seen with your eyes."
Note: In my opinion this was said by one of the most sympathetic and well
acted characters in movie history.
I hope you all eat lots of candy today.
Love Frank
Dear Arnold:
I shure hope you know what the hell you are doing. Props to you for
getting George W. to pay attention to CA. Perhaps he will see us as more
then just a means to SCREW US OUT OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS VIA ENRON AND
THOSE OTHER TEXAS CROOKS!!!
Good luck. You are going to need it.
Kobe Bryant gets a standing ovation!!!??? Un freaking believable. We know
he is an adulterer.
Women have a right not to be raped.
Do you hear that everybody? Pay attention now because I'm going to say it
again.
Women have a right not to be raped.
I don't care if they are laying naked on the bed and begging for it. If
they change their mind, tell you, and you do it anyway, you my friend, are
a rapist, and should go to jail.
Women have a right not to be raped. End of story.
Why is it that pharmeceutical companies get sued even after they warn us
of possible side effects. Side effects,I might add, that are rare.
Just because people admit that nothing is a sure thing, nothing is
perfect, does not mean the the people who are not willing to admit that,
are right all the time. Anyone who says they are one hundred percent sure
or "guaranteed", they are the liers. They want your money.
"Oh no, I think I feel tired now. It must be that medication that my
doctor gave me. Get my lawyer on the phone."
These are companies that are attempting and succeeding to better our
lives.
Yet "health" food companies get let off the hook time and time again. They
have a free pass. Why is this??
Did you know that in double blind studies:
Garlic has never beaten the placebo at increasing "wellness"
Zinc has never been proven to help anything. Large amounts of zinc can
INCREASE men's risk for colon cancer.
Vitimin C in large amounts hardens arteries and is damaging to the heart.
Vitimin E( or is it D?) in large amounts can greatly harm unborn babies.
Gingko beloba has never been proven to increas brain activity in anyone
who doesn't have severe dementia and/or alzhiemers.
Echenacia does nothing to help or prohibit cold symptoms or flu.
Growth hormones have been shown to increas growth in inactive cancer
cells!!
There have been deaths linked to Kamboki mushroom tea.
This is stuff that we cram down our pie holes, people, this is stuff for
our BODIES for crying out loud. Think first. Research.
Why does no one question even for a second the myths we hear from, who -
our friends? The guy at the health food store? Alternative magazines?
And yet studies published by the journal of the AMA, or the New England
Journal of Medicine get largly ignored.
Just wondoring.
If you've made it this far then let me take a moment to thank you for
taking the time and I LOVE THE FEEDBACK.
Take care,
Love Frank

Yo, peoples, what up!
First off..food for thought. I wonder how many different ways the
Republican Party can screw over the people of California. Obviously many
many many. Enough on that. I'm just too pissed off.
Next, the Yankees are the devil. I hope they loose.
I was offered to play at Cyberfest on new years eve, and I don't even want
to go. Too many people, not enough money. I think I would rather hang at a
friends place and kick it. If I did that, I wouldnt have to look for
parking.
On sunday an old friend is going to be in the city for another old
friend's wedding. I might not be at Serendipity the whole time cuz I want
to visit with him a little. His mother died a couple of months ago and he
is getting a devorce. Remember people, when things are bad, they could be
worse. His mom was my fourth grade teacher.
Speaking of old friends it got me to thinking...
The summer between freshmen and sophmore years. The phone rings. I hear my
dad answer it and then he says "Oh no. Oh no." You just know when someone
says oh no a certain way that something bad has happened. I think my ears
started ringing. Funny how people say "were your ears burning?"
Anyway. My folks sit us all down and tell us they have some bad news.
"It looks like David Hedley drowned today."
Drowned today.
Drowned today.
Drowned today.
An image of a hand sticking out of the water. bubbles coming up all around
it.
Drowned. As in dead.
I guess I was just staring into nothing cuz my mom asks me "What are you
thinking about."
I told her that I just couldn't get over the idea of never seeing dave
again.
Well I never did. Funny how that stuff comes back now and again. I went to
kindergarten with him. I wonder if he would have had his own wedding and/or
divorce by now.
Whoah! Where the hell did all of that come from?? Death. Old friends.
I don't know how many of you know but skye and I are celebrating her
finding a cool job. We are going to get some dinner, have a pitcher, meybe
another, go see Kill Bill. They used something like 100 gallons of fake
blood making that movie. I hear the body count is in triple digits. Cool.
Funny how fake death is cool. Real death, well.....
"Death smiles at us all. All one can really do, is smile back."
I was telling my boss the other day. Anytime I begin to think 'oh no I'm
dying', for whatever reason, I just think 'ok then, bring it on.'
What else can you do?
(eat right, exercize)
HEY,YOU SHUT UP!!!
(sorry)
That's all for now.
Late.
Frank
P.S. If you don't want this email send me an email and I won't send you
this email. Make sense?

Hi Friends:
I have toyed with the idea of writing an occasional "just a few things
that have been on my mind" column for my beloved friends and family.
Anything from movie revews to political rants to dirty jokes. Well here
goes.
Here is something that never ceases to infuriate me.
MOVIES ARE NOT REAL. THEY ARE MAKE BELIEVE.
How does an action hero.. and a bad one at that.. become governer of the
greatest state in the greatest country? Well I think the answer is 1) he is
a republican 2) the other guy was democrat 3) this country is desperate for
leadership 4) politicians are crooks therefore action heroes are the next
best thing (???) 5) california is really really a mess. big time.
Also why is it that when sports heroes get into trouble we all want them
to go free ( kobe ), but when an everyday joe gets into trouble we want
them to fry ( scott peterson ) Now that I think about it, I think that the
movie issue and this one are related.
Television is the devil.
Speaking of sports...
How the hell can a Baseball team that was number one in defense all year.
A team that buried their closest devision rivals, gag so badly in the post
season. I am still bumbed. I most likely won't watch baseball again until
another world series comes along. ( Just think about it.....Raiders,
Giants.)
...and back to movies.
The critics are saying the "Kill Bill" is a superbly done bloodfest. I,
for one, cant wait to see it.
That's all for now
Love frank
P.S. Sorry about my speling errerrrs. I can write but I cant spell.
Peace
