Years ago Texas executed a guy who poisoned his own children and made out like they had gotten poisoned candy trick or treating the Other Inmates called him the Candyman. Cathy Rigby is still appearing as Peter Pan at "60" and apparently had bulimia for 12 years where you gorge then barf. If I stopped doing my Blog I wonder if the American TV Media would wither away as they need me like Cathy needed Eats and a Bathroom, Hmm maybe I should try this and do the World a Favor. Recently I finished Sam Walton's Autobiography "Made In America" which he only found time to write with an assist from John Huey as he was dying from blood cancer passing April 5, 1992 at "74." Sam was born in Kingfisher, Oklahoma on March 29, 1918 with a Flame Under His Ass like the world had never seen or ever will. In all sphere of Retail Sam would instantly Appraise and know what to do he no Failures but if something wasn't doing as well as he wanted he abandoned it, Sam was totally Fluid and Open Minded. He spent much time in other Retailers Stores he said anything I ever did I borrowed from Somebody Else. Sam learned to fly so that he could go 100 miles in a straight line, just flying over an Area he would see where his Store should go and would buy the Land maybe the same day if he could. Sam owned a total of 18 airplanes all bought 2nd Hand and whenever he flew Commercial it was always Coach he disdained the Trappings of Wealth as Acting as though you were Better than Everybody Else. A Great Judge of Talent Sam's Original Operations Manager was a High School Grad at Best and Had One Eye but he was Hardworking and Smart. He gave his Managers Great Freedom to try things and had their Pay tied in to their Store's Profitability and after one year the Associates, the Employees, were eligible to buy Stock at a Discount and of course all it's ever done is expand.

When Sam and his Managers went to N.Y. to buy they always walked taking no taxis. When Sam had his lst Stock Offering in 1970 he kept 61% for himself and his family and it's done nothing but go up. Today the Waltons have at least as much as Gates and Buffett put together. A minor one the daughter of his only sibling his younger brother by 3 years James (Bud) lives in Henderson NV. and is worth 4 bil. Warren does have something that Sam wanted as he wanted to go to Wharton after the U. of Missouri but hadn't the Scratch. And how many of those "Financial Experts" on TV have read "Made in America," None. They think that because Sam's Wealth stemmed from an Oklahoma Methodist Farmboy instead of some Jew, Jap or Whomever that there's something wrong with it, Money is Money, Geese, it all spends. When Forbes named Sam as the Richest American in 1985 there was a mad media rush towards him in which Sam himself said that he was pictured as....Sort of a Hillbilly who slept with his Dogs and kept Billions in a Cave..... When I learned that you had no respect for money I realized that you had no respect for anything. Wal-Mart has been criticized for doing in their Competition in the Small towns which is where it began bu tSam pointed out that a lot of these towns would have blown away had there not been a reason to go there. He said I saved people many billions of dollars I've enhanced hundreds of thousands of Associates with many becoming millionaires and we've made huge contributions to Charity. Sam had his 3 Sons and Alice working as soon as they could walk with Alice at "5" selling Popcorn from a Machine (I'd be Covered with Business and then they'd go inside the Store). The Waltons are truly a beautiful Family, to Sam Money was just a way of keeping Score......Buy Low Stack It High Sell It Cheap Blow It Out the Door....

Regarding Sandra Fluke my surname means "Prussian" I guess hers means fluke (a parasitic worm). Theodore Roosevelt was the only President whose full name began and ended with the same letter mine does. I'm not watching the Presidential Debates as I might influence something (I broke McKayla's Concentration and ruined her life hopefully the Poor Child will forgive me Some Day). I was given 2 Tickets for Gerry McCambridge's "The Mentalist" Show in an Intimate Showroom and I thought that Gerry was very humorous and talented it was quite a treat. I've never seen his TV Show as my Curiosity about other Psychics is almost None. Those people who help to solve Murders are very good but that's nothing that I want for myself (I can feel him getting his throat cut he's making gurgling sounds). There's many different types of Intelligence and I'm very happy with what I can do. I went to the Library once to research my Ability in Others I didn't find anything. I don't think the ending in "Argo" could have been that close as the Iranians could have sent a Fighter Jet up to force the Swiss Air plane down. This Operation Saved 6 People from One Year's Captivity while putting their Lives at Great Risk. You People are Easily Impressed you Hear about Some Guy who Eats Lunch Every Day and Exclaim He Goes Out to Lunch Every Day.

Corrie Sanders a White South African and former excellent Heavyweight Boxer was killed in September by hold-up men in a restaurant outside of Pretoria where he had gone on a Family Outing to Celebrate his Nephew's 21st Birthday. I saw Corrie Box in one of Cedric Kushner's "Heavyweight Explosion" 's at the old Aladdin where I saw many fine boxing cards priced for a Workingman's Purse at a $15 Admittance. Corrie's Record was 42-4 with 31 KO's and if you want to see an Action-Packed 2 Rounds Google his Knockout Victory with 4 Knockdowns over the great Vladimir Klitschko on March 8, 2003. Largely inactive over the previous 2 years and Old and Fat and Cauliflowered Corrie was taken lightly, far too lightly, as a 40-1 Underdog. Overlooked was that He still possessed the fastest Hands of any HW and was one of the few HW's (lefthanded) who could Hit Hard with his Left Hand. And a well-spoken Guy who was calm under pressure even sitting for an Interview the Hour before a Major Fight. Upon Retirement in 2008 Corrie honed his Golf Game to near-professional Standards. A Noble Warrior the 46-year old Corrie Died a Hero diving to protect his Daughter taking her bullets.

I'm donating that Car and finding another hopefully soon. If they're judicious they'll be able to get a lot of money for it there'll be Guys diving on the hood. I paid cash for a new car when I was "23." Mitt is a tough Mormon, many are, and Barry is going to have to relax maybe he can get 2-hour deep-tissue massages, I'd get these in Thailand, $8 and I'd tip 'em $5. I always asked for a big, strong girl, oftentimes during the course they'd grab my midsection and I'd say, no, no, don't do that, whenever I've said this Guys would Laugh and make out that I was lame and you know that I'm not. Alex Karras passed at "77," the winner of the Outland Trophy when he was at Iowa and 2nd in the Heisman one of only 2 down linemen to almost win it. An All-Pro defensive tackle with the Lions Karras along with Paul Hornung was suspended for a year, 1963, for betting on Games and wrestled professionally. "Dick the Bruiser" Afflis a very well-known Wrestler who had played for the Packers went into Karras' bar in Detroit and picked a brawl with Karras getting much the better of it.

Former WBA Heavyweight Champion Michael Dokes, 53-6-2 died recently from liver cancer at "54." Akron has always been a real good boxing town and I followed Michael's Career from the time he was 16 more happily in the beginning. Considered to have the quickest hands of any Heavyweight of his Era alcohol and cocaine eventually stripped him of his skills although even in his boxing dotage he had his moments with his Fight with Evander Holyfield in 1989 Ring's Heavyweight Fight of the Decade. Michael could show a very good side and was well-liked by Many but in 2000 he beat his longtime Girlfriend beyond Recognition and was to serve 8 Years in Prison. When asked who had hit him the hardest.....My Mother.....
