GOOD EARLY MORNING;
ON 20100127 MY SERVICE DOG SHEEBA, HAD TO HAVE LIVER SURGERY. WE WERE OUT DOING THE 'PT' ONE DAY, AND SHEEBA STEPPED ON A BROKEN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTAINER. I TRYING TO BE HELPFUL, DECIDED TO HIKE HER ON MY SHOULDER.
POOR SHEEBA, FELL TO THE GROUND ON HER BACK. I WAS HAVING THE DROPSIES AND SHE FELL ON HER BACK. I WAS QUITE CONCERNED THAT I BROKE HER NECK AS SHE FELL TO THE EARTH.
WITH HASTE, WE WENT TO A VETERINARIAN JUST DOWN THE ROAD, FROM OUR CURRENT QUARTERS ENTITLEMENT AND WE HAPPENED UPON, HON. DR. RASMUSSON AND HER WONDERFUL STAFF AT THE SOUTHWEST VETERINARIAN HOSPITAL.
HON. DR. RASMUSSON, EXAMINED SHEEBA'S NECK AND I PROCEEDED TO EXPLAIN WHAT HAD OCCURED. SHE TOOK A QUICK GLANCE AT SHEEBA, AND SHE ASKED ME ALL 'THE JEOPRADY QUESTIONS'.
NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WAS QUITE PLEASED TO SEE THAT SHE WAS TAKING NEW PATIENTS. SO WE HAVE A 'GOTO PERSON' FOR SHEEBA'S IMMEDIATE NEEDS.(WHICH QUITE FRANKLY, HAS BEEN SINCE THE DAY I ADOPTED THE OLD GOAT. I CONTINUE TO BE GRATFUL, KNOWING THAT SHE DOESN'T HAVE ADDISON'S DISEASE, CUSHINGS DISEASE, AND TWO OR THREE OTHER DISEASES, WHICH I CANNOT EVEN PRONOUNCE.)
WHEN I WENT TO PICK THE 'OLD GOAT' UP, I WAS QUITE SURPRISED AT THE WAY IN WHICH SHE LOOKED. I KNOW THAT THE STAFF OF DR. RASMUSSON, DID THE VERY BEST JOB THEY COULD DO. MY DEAR 'OLD GOAT', DEFINITELY LOOKED HER AGE AND SHE LIVES TO 'SUBDUE INTERNATIONAL AND DOMESTIC TERRORIST SLEEPER CELLS FOR ANOTHER DAY.' DR. RASMUSSON, WAS VERY QUICK IN ATTAINING SHEEBA'S MEDICAL RECORDS, AND WE DISCUSSED WHAT WAS TRANSPIRING WITH HER MEDICAL CARE.
AS I HAVE MENTIONED TO BOTH OF SHEEBA'S DOCTORS, IT IS PRETTY STRAIGHT FORWARD. SHEEBA PROVIDES ME WITH THE LITTLE EXTRA BOOST AND AT TIMES, IS MORE USEFUL THAN A 'BRINKS HOME SECURITY SYSTEM'. SHE HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL FOR MY MOBILITY AND SHE IS A WONDERFUL HELPER WITH SEVERAL OF MY HOUSEHOLD DETAILS.
I MENTIONED TO THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS POLICE, THAT SHEEBA ACTUALLY DOESN'T PROVIDE 'COMFORT', BUT SHE CAN DEFINITELY BE A PAIN IN THE TOOKUS, WHEN I'M BEING A PAIN IN THE TOOKUS.
AFTER MY FIRST LESSON IN PROTOCOL AND PROCEDURE, WITH ONE OF THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FACILITY DRIVERS OF THE 'RTC', I NEEDED TO FIND A WAY AND BECOME COMPETENT, WHEN IT CAME TO THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT. I THANK MY YOUNGEST SISTER AND MY NEUROLOGIST FOR SOME WONDERFUL IDEAS AND THE PRESCRIPTION WHICH I USED TO GET SHEEBA, THE SERVICE DOG TAGS AND THE REGISTRATION THROUGH THE UNITED STATES SERVICE DOG REGISTRY.
I MUST SAY RIGHT NOW, THERE IS MORE TO THIS PROTOCOL-THROUGH THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITY ACT AND THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE. IT IS JUST LIKE PERFORMING A MARRIAGE CEREMONY. THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT HAS VERY JUST FORWARD RULES WHICH GIVE YOU A 'REASONABLE ACCOMMANDATION'. DO NOT, DO NOT-TAKE THE USE OF THESE MATERIALS FOR GRANTED. THERE ARE MILLIONS OF FOLKS, RELYING ON THESE RIGHTS.
I MUST SHARE THIS BRIEF STORY. ONE DAY LAST WEEK, I WAS IN ONE OF THE LOCAL RETAIL CONVENIENT STORES. SHEEBA AND I WERE, STANDING IN ONE OF THE CENTER ISLES. A LADY CAME OVER TO WHERE WE WERE STANDING AND ASKED ME A FEW QUESTIONS ABOUT SHEEBA AND IF NOT MISTAKEN WAS TRYING TO OFFER SOMETHING FOR SHEEBA'S CONSUMPTION. SO THE LADY FINALLY MADE IT TO THE COUNTER-TO PURCHASE HER B.A.S., I THOUGHT I HEARD HER SAY SOMETHING ABOUT HER MOTHER HAVING PARKINSON DISEASE AND SOMETHING ABOUT RAISING 18 INDIVIDUALS.
ANYONE WHO HAS READ 'THE PATRIARCH', OR ANY OF MY OTHER OPINIONS, JOURNAL ENTRIES AND THE LIKE, KNOW THAT I HAVE A FASCINATING INTEREST IN PARKINSON DISEASE, HUNINGTON DISEASE W/WO CHOREA, NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR RARE DISORDERS, TERRORIST ACTS OF KLEPTOMANIACS, ARSONISTS, PYROMANIACS AND THE LIKE. JUST AS THE LADY WAS EXITING THE LOCAL RETAILER, I APOLOGIZED FOR 'EAVESDROPPING' ON HER CONVERSATION AND ASKED HER WHETHER HER MOTHER HAD PARKINSON DISEASE. SHE SAID 'YES' AND SHE STATED 'THAT I WAS PATHETIC, FOR HAVING TO HAVE A SERVICE ANIMAL AND I SHOULD BE ASHAMED THAT I CAPITALIZE OFF SHEEBA. (TO BE QUITE HONEST, I STILL HAVEN'T FIGURED OUT HOW I HAVE CAPITALIZED OFF SHEEBA.).
IN MY MIND, I WAS WONDERING WHETHER THE PARKINSON DISEASE IS GENETIC IN HER FAMILY-FOR THAT I ADMIRED HER 'GUST FOR LIFE', BECAUSE IN THE BEGINNING-SHE'LL NEED EVERY BIT OF IT, AND THE STRENGTH CAN ONLY COME FROM HER.
I HAVE SEEN SOME VERY INTERESTING RESEARCH ON THE 'GROOVES THAT THE BRAIN DEVELOPS, WHEN YOU LEARN SOMETHING NEW.'. HOW ABOUT TRYING TO FIND THOSE 'GROOVES', SO TO SPEAK, WHEN YOUR MIND AND BODY ARE DETERIORATING, LIKE A BULB ON A FILM STRIP-WHERE THAT BRIEF 'HEAT' ON THE FILM-BURNS A WHOLE IN THE NEGATIVE AND I DO NOT MEAN DETERIORATION WHEN SALT IN THE BRAIN AND THE BODY EVAPORATES AND YOU SEEM AS THOUGH YOUR DEHYDRATING-BUT IN ACTUALITY YOUR CONSCIOUSLY AWARE OF BURSTS, AS IN TOURETTES SYNDROME. SO ADVANCED IN STAGES, WHERE THE WEIGHT OF YOUR HEAD CAUSES YOU TO FALL OVER-NOT DUE TO PRESSURE IN THE CRANIUS, BUT BECAUSE ONE HALF OF YOUR BRAIN HAS DETERIORATED. I USED TO LAUGH AT ONE OF MY STEP PARENTS REMARKS-ABOUT SITTING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN EMPTY ROOM, WITH ONE CHAIR. YOU SIT IN THE CHAIR AND FALL OFF.
THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS OF COURSE WITH THE PSYCHOGENIC PROPERTIES AND THERE HAVE BEEN AMAZING STORIES OF 'WAR PSYCHIATRY'-VERY INTERESTING READINGS, FROM THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES-DEALING WITH 'LEARNED LESSONS OF THE CIVIL WAR'-HIGHLY DECORATED AND THE MIND TWISTS ON ITS SELF. I HAVE ALSO HEARD OF INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE THE SYPMTOMS AF PARKINSON DISEASE FROM ALCOHOL AND THE USE OF MEDICINES. (DRUG INDUCED-EXTRAPYRIMIDAL REACTIONS), LOSS OF THE TASTE IN YOUR BUDS, LOSS OF SMELL (I WAS READING A FEW ARTICLES ON A 'SCRATCH AND SNIFF', TO DETERMINE DEGENERATION.) ATAXIA, APHASIA. THERE WAS A REASON I DIDN'T BECOME A MEDICAL DOCTOR.
I RECALL THE FIRST TIME I ENTERED THE UNITED STATES SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINIISTRATION OFFICE, HERE IN RENO. I ALMOST TURNED AROUND AND WALKED OUT. I'VE TOLD THIS STORY IN SEVERAL WRITINGS-I TOLD THE AGENT, WHO FIRST INTERVIEWED ME FOR SOCIAL SECURITY, 'THAT I DO NOT ENVY YOUR JOB'. I HAVE LEFT A FEW MESSAGES, FOR HIM ON THE TELEPHONIC SIGNAL COMMUNICATION DEVICE, BUT I'M HOPING THAT A PREARRANGED HOUSEHOLD VISIT, WILL BE IN ORDER.
BACK TO THE 'OLD GOAT','MY LITTLE FLYING NUN'. I AM SUPPOSED TO HEAR FROM THE DOCTOR NEXT WEEK. HOPEFULLY, WE CAN ELIMINATE LIVER DISEASE AND PRESS FORWARD. WELL WORTH THE TIME.
HAVE A GREAT DAY AND REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. IF YOU CARE TO COMMENT, ON ANY OF THE MULTIPLE TOPICS-GO AHEAD. AS THE OLD SAYING GOES-'THERE IS NOTHING LIKE AN INFORMED CITIZENRY.'..
SINCERELY,
REV. DR. JAMES J. SHOWERS, JR.

BELOW IS A EXCERPT FROM 'EXECUTIVE ORDER 10450'.
SOMETIME AGO, WHILE RESEARCHING DATA FOR THE 'NEW WAVE' OF EMPLOYMENT POSSIBILITIES IN TODAY'S MARKET PLACE, I CAME ACROSS THE EXECUTIVE ORDERS.
THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DELVE INTO SUCH DOCUMENTS. I HAPPENED TO BE APPLYING TO THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT (ONCE AGAIN), WITH AN EMPHASIS ON THE COLLECTION OF DATA, FOR THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS ADMINISTRATION.
BEING A REAL 'GO GETTER' AND ATTEMPTING TO BE AS THOROUGH AS POSSIBLE, I WENT BACK TO THE EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION-CRIMINAL JUSTICE INFORMATION CENTER, FOR THE BIOMETRICS RETRIEVAL SYSTEM (FINGERPRINTING AND DNA). WITH THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE AND THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITY ACT, I AM GIVEN THE SAME KIND OF OPPORTUNITIES, UNDER THE 'REASONABLE ACCOMMODATION' OF THE ACT.
AT TIMES WHEN I THINK ABOUT THE 'YOUNGER GENERATION' AND THEIR CLOUDED NATURE WHEN IT COMES TO THE SERVICE, I HAVE TO REMEMBER, IT IS NOT THAT THEY 'DO NOT ASK', BUT THAT THE 'THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO ASK OR WHERE TO GO'.
WHEN I FIRST WENT TO WORK WITH THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY, THINGS WERE PRETTY STRAIGHT FORWARD. AT THAT TIME, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA HAD A FEW ISSUES TO DEAL WITH-THE FIRST TERRORIST ATTACK, OF THE WORLD TRADE CENTER, THE HOOTSIE AND TOOTSIE AND THE ANNIHILATION, MULTIPLE SCANDALS IN THE MIDDLE EAST, AND A HOST OF OTHER ISSUES-WHICH HAD TO BE WORKED OUT FOR SOVEREIGNTY IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
I WAS READING A REPORT, THROUGH THE FBI-BJIR AND A SELECT GROUP OF ARTICLES, FROM THE COALITION OF THE UNITED STATES INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY. THE YOUNGER GENERATION TODAY, CAN ADD THREE MORE BACKGROUND INVESTIGATIONS FROM THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY, THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION-CRIMINAL JUSTICE INFORMATION SERVICE, THE NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY ORGANIZATION AND THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL POLICE ORGANIZATION-WHICH IN THE UNITED STATES IS CALLED-THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL CENTER BUREAU OF INTERPOL.
I MUST CONFESS, THAT THE READING OF THE EXECUTIVE ORDERS, CAN DEFINITELY BE ENLIGHTENING AND 'KEEP YOU OUT OF SERIOUS TROUBLE' IF APPLIED. AT TIMES WHEN I CONTEMPLATE THE DATA, IT REMINDS ME OF THE OLD FOOTAGE OF J EDGAR HOOVER, AND THE YOUNG MAN, WHO ASKS 'HOW CAN I BECOME A G MAN'. HONORABLE J. EDGAR HOOVER REPLIES (PARAPHRASE)-'KEEP YOUR NOSE CLEAN AND KEEP OUT OF TROUBLE.'
WHEN I INITIALLY, WENT TO THE MILITARY ENLISTMENT PROCESSING CENTER, I RECALL HAVING THE INITIAL BRIEFING AND THE INTERVIEW WITH THE FIRST FBI AGENT-IN THE DARK ROOM. I HEAR IT IS FAR MORE ADVANCED SINCE MY SERVICE.
SINCE I INITIALLY WENT TO THE MEPS CENTER TO OUR PRESENT TIMES, I HAVE BEEN THERE EIGHT TIMES. FIVE HONORABLE DISCHARGES LATER, I WONDER IF I STILL HAVE WHAT IT TAKES IN TODAYS MILITARY STRATEGY.
I MUST REFLECT, THAT MY TIME IN SERVICE CANNOT COMPARE TO THE 'NEW WARRIOR' AND HOPEFULLY A MORE INTENSIFIED INTELLIGENCE GATHERING PROCESS. IN TODAY'S STANDARDS, MY SERVICE AND TRAINING COULD NOT POSSIBLY COMPARE TO TODAYS ELITE AND HEIGHTENED APPROACH TO THE RECRUITMENT AND TRAINING OF ASSETS.
IN 2001, I HAD THE POTENTIAL TO ACCOMPLISH THE TASKS AND GOALS OF FORTY OR FIFTY, BUT TODAY'S MODERN WARRIOR IS CROSS TRAINED IN MULTIPLE CAREER MANAGEMENT FIELDS.
AS I WAS HAVING CONVERSATION WITH AN AT&T REPRESENTATIVE YESTERDAY (20091214, WE WERE DISCUSSING HER COMPANIONS ROLL IN THE MODERN UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THEE ARMY. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED-1)THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY, WAS PUTTING HER COMPANION THROUGH SCHOOL TO BECOME A DOCTOR, 2)HER DESIRE TO TAKE ON THE CAREER MANAGEMENT FIELD IN THE JUDGE ADVOCATE GENERALS CORPSE. I MAY HAVE MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES DIVISION (FORENSIC PROFILERS).
SHE HAS A GOOD HEAD ON HER SHOULDERS AND AS WE USED TO SAY WHEN I SERVED-'SHE'LL DO MORE BEFORE 0900, THAN MOST WILL DO ALL YEAR.' I WAS ALSO VERY EXCITED TO HEAR THAT HER COMPANION WOULD BE CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS WITH HER.
IF YOU HAVE COMMENTS CONCERNING THE EXECUTIVE ORDERS, PLEASE REPLY TO THE BLOG. HAVE A GREAT DAY!
SINCERELY,
REV. DR. JAMES J. SHOWERS, JR

GOOD DAY DEAR FRIENDS;
I MAY HAVE RELEASED THE QUOTE AND INTERNATIONAL PRAYER REQUEST, THIS FINE EARL MORNING.
WITHOUT FURTHER ADO.
QUOTE: HIS EXCELLENCY-HONORABLE DAG HAMMARSKJOLD: FORMER SECRETARY-GENERAL, UNITED NATIONS SECRETARIAT.
'MAN HAS REACHED A CRITICAL POINT IN HISTORY, WHERE HE MUST TURN TO GOD TO AVOID THE CONSEQUENCES OF HIS OWN FAULTY THINKING. WE MUST PRAY, NOT A FEW OF US. WE MUST PRAY, SIMPLY, FERVENTLY, SINCERELY, AND WITH INCREASING POWER AS OUR FAITH GROWS.
WE MUST CONDITION THE WORLDS LEADERS BY ASKING GOD'S SPIRIT TO DESCEND UPON THEIR HEARTS AND MINDS. WE MUST CONDITION OURSELVES, EACH AND EVERYONE, BY ASKING GOD'S HELP IN LIVING SO THAT PEACE MAY BE POSSIBLE.
WE MUST PRAY IN CHURCH, AT HOME, ON THE TRAIN, WHILE DRIVING TO THE JOB-AND KEEP AT IT. EACH OF US IS IMPORTANT NOW. THE ABILITY OF EVERY INDIVIDUAL TO SEEK DIVINE HELP IS A NECESSARY LINK IN THE GOLDEN CHAIN OF HARMONY AND PEACE.
PRAYER IS A DYNAMIC MANIFESTATION OF LOVE BY THE CONCERNED, REACHING OUT FOR GOD'S HELP FOR MAN. YOU CAN HELP CHANGE THE WORLD BY YOUR PRAYERS AND YOUR POWERFUL ACTION.' FORMER SECRETARY-GENERAL OF THE UNITED NATIONS SECRETARIAT: DEDICATION OF THE MEDITATION ROOM-UNITED NATIONS HEADQUARTERS.
INTERNATIONAL PRAYER REQUESTS:1) UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL COUNTER-TERRORISM EXECUTIVE DIRECTORATE; 2) FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION-JOINT TERRORISM TASK FORCE IN NEVADA; 3) INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL POLICE ORGANIZATION-COMBATING HUMAN TRAFFICKING; 4) UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY-CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION DIVISION-SOUTHERN ARMY EUROPE BOMBING AGENCTY-TERRORIST WATCHLIST, 5) UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF STATE-COUMMUNIST AND TERRORIST WATCHLIST.

DEAR FRIENDS,
I AM QUITE CONCERNED THAT THE TRAGEDY, WHICH OCCURRED ON SEPTEMBER 11TH 2001, WILL DESTROY A WONDERFUL RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION-OR AS SOME SCHOLARS AND ACADEMICS WOULD STATE 'AN UNBEARABLE OFFSHOOT'.
I'VE BEEN A CLERGYMAN OVER TWENTY YEARS.
I HAVE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SERVE OUR COUNTRY, SOME EIGHT AND A HALF YEARS.
I'VE HAD THE GREAT HONOR TO SERVE WITH INDIVIDUALS, WHO WOULD PROTECT THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AS IF THEY WERE BLOOD OF THE PRESIDENT (QUITE FRANKLY-THERE IS NO GREATER HONOR TO HAVE OFFERED THAT REASONABLE SERVICE.)
I HAVE SAT AND CONTEMPLATED WITH INDIVIDUALS, WHO WOULD STATE WITHOUT HESITATION-'I'M JUST LIKE YOU AND HAVE TO PUT MY PANTS ON THE SAME WAY!).
WHEN I WAS WORKING ON MY POST DOCTORAL DEGREE RESEARCH, FOR THE DOCTORATE IN RELIGIOUS HUMANITIES, I WAS WORKING IN A WAREHOUSE SETTING (AS MANY WOULD KNOW, THIS WAS WERE I DEVELOPED THE INVOLUNTARY TREMORS AND IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE COMPANY I WAS WORKING WITH.). SOMEONE ASKED 'IF YOUR SO SMART-WHY ARE YOU WORKING HERE?'. AS I CONTEMPLATED FOR A MOMENT, IT WAS QUITE CLEAR-'BECAUSE THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE WHO IS SMARTER THAN I'. (BROTHERS AND SISTERS-THAT IS JUST THE WAY IT SHOULD BE!).
IF YOU HAVE EVER LISTENED TO MOST CONVERSATIONS, WERE RELIGION AND POLITICS ARE A CENTRAL POINT, FOLKS WOULD STATE-'IF YOU WANT TO LOSE FRIENDS TALK ABOUT THE TWO.' INTERESTING ONE LINER, BUT FOLKS THE CONCEPTUAL ANALYSIS DOESN'T HOLD WATER, WHEN IT COMES TO THE TERRORIST OR EXCUSE ME-EXTREMIST.
INTERESTING DATA, IN THE MIDDLE EAST-AFFILIATION WITH AN EXTREMIST TRAINING CAMP, BEGINS AT FIFTEEN. IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE, IT BEGINS AT SEVEN.
I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY SEVERAL YEARS AGO, DEALING WITH RESEARCH REQUESTS THROUGH THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION. TO STUDY A CULTUS, WHICH HAD ITS ORIGINS 300 TO 700 YEARS AGO. PAPERWORK FOR THE RESEARCH WAS THROUGH THE ROOF. I THANK GOD, THAT IT IS THAT WAY-ACCOUNTABILITY WAS ESSENTIAL, AND IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN, ABOUT TWENTY DEPARTMENTS WITHIN THE FBI LATER, I WAS GRANTED APPROVAL TO FILL OUT AN 'APPLICATION FOR THE RESEARCH DATA.'
LET US LOOK AT THAT CONCEPT FOR A MOMENT, AND VIEW AT LEAST THE 'WESTERN HEMISPHERE'. IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE ACCOUNTABILITY, AND THE RECOVERY OF DATA-NOT ONLY THE CAPACITY TO UNRAVEL A MYSTERY, SO TO SPEAK, MAY HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED. IT WOULD ALSO TAKE AWAY THE RIGHT FOR PEACEFUL PEOPLES, TO EXAMINE AN ERA TO FIND A COMMON BALANCE FOR THE WAY RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS INTERACTED AMONG OTHERS.I CANNOT POSSIBLY SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THE WORK OF THE FBI-COUNTERINTELLIGENCE, IT IS A BIG PART OF TODAY'S PROPER LAW ENFORCEMENT.
I WAS TALKING TO MY COMPANION ANIMAL-'SHEEBA', JUST THE OTHER DAY. I HAD MENTIONED A FEW OF THE 1)ORDERS, 2)STATUS OF FORCE AGREEMENT, AND 3)THE RULES OF ENGAGEMENT. WHICH PERTAIN TO A PROPER FOUNDATION FOR THE ART OF WAR.
GENERAL WESTMORELAND HAD MADE A STATEMENT SEVERAL YEARS AGO. QUOTE: 'MAN CAN NOT BE TAUGHT SOMETHING CONVENTIONAL OR UNCONVENTIONAL, IF HE CANNOT HANDLE ANYTHING GENERAL PURPOSE.' BELIEVE WHEN I SAY, THAT ALSO APPLIES TO POLITICAL PRESSURE.
IF ONE WANTS A GLIMPSE OF THE LAST-ONE SHOULD EXAMINE A BIT OF THE MEDIA IN THE COUNTRY OF IRAN. THERE HAVE BEEN THREE OTHER TIMES AS I RECALL, WERE THE PRESIDENT OF IRAN, HAD RELAYED A LESS THAN FAVORABLE RESPONSE TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
THE PRESIDENT OF IRAN, WAS HERE IN THE UNITED STATES FOR SESSIONS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. I CERTAINLY HOPED THAT HE ENJOYED HIS TIME HERE AND MANAGED TO GET THE 'STICK OUT OF HIS BUTT, TO DO SOMETHING WORTHWHILE AS IT PERTAINS TO THE MILLENNIUM GOALS-SET BY ALL MEMBER COUNTRIES OF THE UNITED NATIONS.
MY COMPUTER IS TELLING ME 'GIVE IT A BREAK FOR UPDATE.'.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL AND MAY YOU CONTINUE TO BE A BLESSING UNTO OTHERS.
SINCERELY,
REV. DR. JAMES J. SHOWERS, JR.

GOOD DAY DEAR FRIENDS;
SOMETIME AGO, I WAS SPEAKING WITH MY SON DEGA. HE WAS INFORMING ME ABOUT MITOCHONDRIAL DNA. I HAD MENTIONED THAT I WAS DOING RESEARCH ON THE HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL WEBSITE, CONCERNING ADVANCEMENT AND RESEARCH IN DRAWING DNA SAMPLES OF RELATIVES. TO SUBDUE A CRIMINAL WITHIN THE GENETIC STRAND.
WITH ALL OF THE TECHNOLOGY AND PRIOR RESEARCH STRANDS, I AM QUITE SURPRISED THAT THIS TYPE OF DATA, HAD NOT BEEN RELEASED PRIOR.
MY QUESTION TO THE COMMUNITY, IS 'WHAT IS YOUR COMMENTARY, RESEARCH, AND OPINION CONCERNING THE RELEASE OF THIS DATA? AND 'WHAT EXTENT OF THE GENETIC CODING SHOULD BE USED FOR THIS TYPE OF FORENSICS ANALYSIS?
MY OLDEST SIBLING-SISTER, WAS TELLING ME THAT SHE HAD RECENTLY RECEIVED HER DEGREE IN 'FORENSICS PSYCHOLOGY' (PROFILING SERIAL KILLERS), AND WHEN I HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY I THINK I WILL ASK HER WHAT THE PROGRESSIVE RESEARCH DATA IS FOR THIS ISSUE.
MY PERSONAL OPINION, IS IN THE AFFIRMATIVE. ESPECIALLY AFTER HEARING ABOUT THE RELEASE OF DATA CONCERNING THE DEATH ROW INMATES, IN ALABAMA. SOME OF THE 'WRONGFULLY' CONVICTED INDIVIDUALS, HAD BEEN HOUSED IN DEATH ROW FOR 25 YEARS.
AS MOST WOULD HAVE ALREADY READ A BIT OF MY RESEARCH, THE ISSUE OF DNA TESTING IS GEARED MORE TOWARDS THE GENETIC TESTING FOR DISEASE. EVEN THROUGH THE 'BERKLEY OPEN INFRASTRUCTURE NETWORK COMPUTING', MY ENGAGEMENT IN THOSE PROJECTS IS GEARED TOWARD 'PARKINSON'S DISEASE', HUNINGTON'S DISEASE AND THE ADDITION OF CHOREA', 'SUPRANUCLEAR PALSY', 'ISSUES DEALING WITH MOVEMENT DISORDERS', MOVEMENT DISORDERS AND THERE AFFECT IN THE BASAL GANGLIA, SUPRANIGRA, AND AMYGDALA.'..
THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTARY AND I LOOK FORWARD TO A POSSIBLE-'DIFFERENTIAL'.
I HAVE ALSO BEEN DOING RESEARCH ON THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL POLICE ORGANIZATION WEBSITE, CONCERNING FORENSICS ON THESE VITAL ISSUES.
PLEASE BE ADVISED,I HAVE SENT TWO PHOTOS, THAT MAY REQUIRE YOU TO SCAN.(SELF AND MY CANINE COMPANION).
HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!

THE ANOINTING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN MAN, A BLESSING, A BEGINNING, ANCIENT WISDOM
...
GOOD DAY DEAR FELLOW SOJOURNERS;
SEVERAL YEARS AGO, I CAME ACROSS A TEXT: 'THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD', BY HIS EXCELLENCY-HONORABLE MR. HENRY DRUMMOND. THERE ARE SEVERAL EXCEPTIONAL COMMENTARIES, CONCERNING HIS LIFE AND THE LIVES OF THOSE AROUND HIM. ONE I FIND VERY INTERESTING. HIS EXCELLENCY-HONORABLE MR. HENRY DRUMMOND, HAD NEVER ACTUALLY ATTAINED THE TITLE OF DOCTOR, FOR HIS COMMENTARIES, DISCOURSES, LECTURES, AND PUBLICATIONS. FROM SOME OF THE BIO ON MR. HENRY, HE DID SHARE A SPACE WITH SOME OF THE MOST PROFOUND SPEAKERS, LECTURES, GUESTS AT UNIVERSITY. IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN, WAS IN THE PUBLIC FORUM A PROCTOR OR AN ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR.
HIS LIFE AND THE CALLING, TO SERVE AS AN INSTRUMENT TO THE CARRYING FORWARD OF THE WORD, CAME IN SEVERAL TEXTS. I FOUND A READING FROM MR. HENRY IN-'THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD'. THE TEXT AT SOME POINT IN TIME, WAS DISTRIBUTED TO THE PUBLIC, IN CEREAL BOXES OR THE 'CRACKER JACK BOXES' (NOT NECESSARILY IN THE 'CRACKER JACK BOXES'-USED AS AN EXAMPLE).
MR. HENRY AND HIS PASSION FOR THE WORD OF GOD, LEAD HIM TO MANY DARKEND AREAS OF SOCIETY. HE HELD TO THE SPIRITUAL UNDERSTANDING OF THE 'GREATEST GOOD', BUT NOT ALWAYS THE GOOD OF THE WORLD AS SCHOLARS MAY VIEW DIFFERENTIALLY.
ONE THOUGHT WAS, THAT IN ORDER FOR HIM TO 'CARRY FORTH THE WORD'-HE BECAME A VESSEL, THAT WAS TORN LIMB FROM LIMB, IN A WAY THAT HIS BODY WOULD TAKE THE PLACE OF POTENTIALLY TEN MEN OR THAT HE SHOULD SACRIFICE HIS OWN LIFE FOR TEN MEN, TO BE CHANGED FOREVER IN THE GLORY OF GOD AND TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF THE HOLY AND ONE TRUE GOD. IN A RETROSPECT, I CAN THANK GOD FOR 'REASONABLE SERVICE.'
A BRIEF BACKGROUND ON HOW I FOUND ONE OF HIS TEXTS, NOT NECESSARILY FOR THE FIRST READING OF THIS TEXT-'THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD'. I WAS PREPARING TO WRITE MY THIRD TEXT FOR PUBLICATION, WHICH WOULD BE THE FIRST COPY OF 'SEEDS OF INCORRUPTIBILITY-A COLLECTION OF PRAYERS, QUOTES AND ANCIENT WISDOM.'.
I WAS WORKING AT THE CITY OF PLANO, TEXAS, AT THE INTERURBAN RAILWAY MUSEUM (WHICH IS WERE MY LIFE WOULD CHANGE ONCE AGAIN. (AS SOME MAY RECALL, THIS WAS THE SECOND YEAR OF HAVING THE INVOLUNTARY TREMORS, SLURRING OF THE SPEECH, 'WALKING LIKE A DRUNKEN SAILOR', THE PROBLEMS WITH MOBILITY, THE HEADACHES, ETC. ETC.) MY DIPLOMATE IN NEUROLOGY, WAS KIND ENOUGH TO GET ME A CONSULT AT THE TEACHING HOSPITAL: UTSOUTHWESTERN MEDICAL CENTER-MOVEMENT DISORDER CLINIC-DALLAS,TEXAS. WONDERFUL HEALERS AND TRULY BLESSED, BEYOND ANY CAPACITY OF MANS REASONING FOR THIS CURRENT MODERN DISPENSATION.
AS WAS PAR FOR THE COURSE, I WOULD ENJOY THE PROFOUND WORD OF GOD WITH MY DEAR FRIEND. TO SEEK THE ALMIGHTY GOD IN WORD AND TO PRAY FOR THE SPIRIT OF DISCERNMENT APPLICABLE TO 'REASONABLE SERVICE' AND AS A DEAR FRIEND WOULD RELAY-'NOT TO DISTORT THE KNOWLEDGE'.
MY DEAR FRIEND AND I HAPPENED TO BE OUT AND ABOUT, 'PIDDLING' AROUND AT A STREET FAIR (WERE I MET MY FIRST RETIRED TEXAS RANGER, LAW ENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL). WE WANDERED INTO A ANTIQUE STORE AND I WAS DRAWN TO A GLASS CABINET IN THE MIDDLE SECTION OF THE ANTIQUE STORE. IT WAS EITHER ON THE SECOND OR THIRD SHELF FROM THE TOP. A LITTLE TEXT, IN A RED BOUND SOFT COVER. THE BACK READ: 'LITTLE LUXURANT LIBRARY'. FORMERLY PRINTED AND PUBLISHED UNDER ROBERT K. HAAS PUBLISHERS.
I HAVE THE SECOND COPY OF THE TEXT, ENCLOSED IN A TUPPERWARE CONTAINER, SO THAT I CAN HAVE A BOOK CONSERVATOR, REPAIR THE TEXT TO AN ORIGINAL STATE.
THE TEXT IS A COMMENTARY ON THE 'GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD', WHICH IS REFERRING TO ONE ENTRY FROM THE HOLY BIBLE-'AND THE GREATEST OF THESE IS LOVE!'.
MY FIRST COPY OF THE TEXT, WAS GIVEN AS A TOKEN GIFT FOR A BIRTHDAY AND CELEBRATION.
WHEN I INITIALLY PURCHASED THE TEXT CONSERVATION BECAME AN ISSUE, SO I FOUND A LADY, WHO RESTORE TEXTS BUT WHO IS NOT ACTUALLY CLASSIFIED AS A BOOK CONSERVATOR. I MENTIONED THAT THE CONTENT OF THE TEXT, FROM A SPIRITUAL PERSPECTIVE WAS SUCH, WAS WELL WORTH HER BLOCK OF CONSTRUCTION CONCERNING THE PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE OF THE TEXT.
SHE WAS TRULY GIFTED AND VERY THOROUGH IN HER TALENT. I WISH AT THIS JUNCTURE, I COULD RECALL HER NAME SO THAT HER GIFT COULD BE SHARED WITH OTHERS, BEYOND THOSE WHO KNOW OF THE RICHNESS IN HER TALENT. AS I WAS CONTEMPLATING THE WORK SHE WAS ABOUT TO PERFORM, I WAS THINKING OF THEE THREE WISE MEN, WHO WOULD TRAVEL FROM THE EAST.
AFTER READING THE WONDERFUL TEXT, BEFORE IT WENT INTO THE CONSERVATION MODE, I HAD TO STOP AND THANK GOD FOR THE BLESSING THAT WAS DELIVERED FROM THE HEAVENLY PLACE AND PLACED IN MY HANDS, WHERE A SENSE OF HUMILITY WAS INSTILLED.
THERE IS AN AMAZING SPIRITUAL ESSENCE, THAT CANNOT BE TRANSCRIBED SO TO SPEAK, WHEN THE ALMIGHTY CREATOR HAS HIS HANDS INVOLVED IN A PROJECT. THE PRESENCE IS JUST AS APPARENT, WHEN I PICK UP THE TEXT FROM THE-'NAG HAMMADHI LIBRARY' AND THE SCROLL 'MELCHIZEDEK'.
A MAN AND THE GIFTS, THAT COME FROM HIS HANDS, CANNOT COMPARE TO THE PRESENCE OF THE ALMIGHTY IN THE SOJOURNERS THAT HAVE COME BEFORE AND HOPEFULLY WILL ALWAYS BEAR A SEED THAT CANNOT BE CORRUPTED.
THE ALMIGHTY, IS THE ONLY ESSENCE WHICH TRANSFORMS THIS STATE OF BEING. MAN HAS SEARCHED AND HAS BEEN GIVEN A 'KEYSTONE', SO TO SPEAK WHICH LEADS TO CENTURIES OF SOJOURNERS SEEKING AFTER A PHRASE THAT CANNOT BE SPOKEN, BUT WE WILL ALWAYS KNOW THAT THROUGH ALL OF THE COMMENTARY-THERE IS THAT ONE SEED!
THE EARLY BELIEVERS SOUGHT IT AND SO HAVE WE. A BEGINNING TO LIFE!
AFTER MY LITTLE BIT, THIS POST SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABOUT TRYING TO FIND A CONSERVATOR, TO ASSIST ME IN PREPARING THIS WONDERFUL TEXT FOR ITS NEXT DISPENSATION. HOPEFULLY TO BRING AND KEEP THE GOSPEL OF TRUTH AND ITS RADIANT LIGHT A GLOW-EVEN IF WE MAY BE IN THE DARKNESS AND SEARCHING FOR THE BEGINNING.
AS I HEARD ONE SAY YEARS AGO-'THE TRUTH WILL ALWAYS FIND YOU'.
THANK YOU! MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND MAY YOU CONTINUE TO BE A BLESSING UNTO OTHERS.
SINCERELY,
REV. DR. JAMES J. SHOWERS, JR.

GOOD DAY;
WITHIN THE LAST THREE WEEKS, I HAVE BEEN CONTEMPLATING THE USE OF THE INTERNET, TO BROADCAST THE QUOTES AND THE INTERNATIONAL PRAYER REQUESTS.
FOURTEEN MONTHS AGO, I WAS PLANNING TO DELIVER 'THE PATRIARCH' NEWSLETTER, BACK THROUGH THE INTERNET. DUE TO TIME STAMP CONSTRAINT AND THE TEMPORARY STATUS OF QUARTERS ALLOTMENT, I WILL FOR A SHORT SPAN, RELEASE THE ELECTRONIC SIGNAL COMMUNICATION FOR GREETINGS.
THE QUOTE: 'NEVER GET IN TOUCH WITH ORGANIZED CRIME'-THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY OF NATO AND THE MISSION STATEMENT.
THE INTERNATIONAL PRAYER REQUEST WILL BE FOR: UNITED STATES MARSHALS SERVICE AND THE BAN ON COMMUNIST OPPRESSION PROPAGANDA (ACTUALLY BANNED BEFORE WORLD WAR ONE. THE NAME WAS CHANGED TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT!) AND 2) UNITED STATES FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVETSIGATION: COUNTERINTELLIGENCE PROGRAM AND THE CLOSURE OF THE FACILITIES, WHICH ARE USED TO DISSEMINATE THE PROPAGANDA, AND DISPERSE TO THE PUBLIC.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND MAY YOU CONTINUE TO BE A BLESSING UNTO OTHERS.
AS A DEAR FRIEND OF MY WOULD RELAY-'LETS TRY TO DO SOME GOOD TODAY!!!'.

GOOD EVENING DEAR SOJOURNERS;
WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY, HERE IN THE WESTERN WORLD.
A QUICK THANK YOU, FOR THE SACRIFICE OF OUR SOLIDERS, SAILORS, AIRMAN, MARINES AND UNITED STATES COAST GUARDSMAN.
I WAS CONTEMPLATING THE SACRIFICE OF OUR TROOPS THIS AFTERNOON AND FELT A GREAT SENSE OF UNITY, WITH THE FOUNDING FATHERS AND THEIR UNWAVERING PURSUIT TO ESTABLISH RIGHTS FOR ALL PERSONS, THAT TOUCH THEIR FEET UPON THE SOIL OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
WHEN I PROUDLY WORKED FOR THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY, WE ALWAYS KNEW WHERE AND WHAT OUR TASKING WAS, AFTER THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE- 1)ORDERS, 2) STATUS OF FORCE AGREEMENT, 3) RULES OF ENGAGEMENT. (YET BASIC AND FUNDAMENTAL PREMISES)
THE ATMOSPHERE PRIOR TO THE ENGAGEMNT, HAS BEEN THE SAME SENSE THE FOUNDING OF OUR WONDERFUL COUNTRY AND IS PART OF INTERNATIONAL LAW AND TREATIES AS WELL.
TO A JOB WELL DONE AND TO A VISION WHICH CAN ENDURE EVEN THE MOST TRYING OF TIMES.
TO THE COMMANDER AND CHIEF- THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA-HONORABLE BARAK OBAMA. MAY GOD GRACE YOU WITH HIS OMNIPRESENCE. WHETHER IT IS TO THE RIGHT OR TO THE LEFT, MAY THE CHAMPIONS OF FREEDOM SUSTAIN YOU EVEN IF IT CALLS FOR 'SETTING YOU ON A ROCK AND ASSISTING YOU IN HOLDING THE STAFF.' AS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH, JOSHUA, ABRAHAM. MAY GOD BLESS THE DEFENDERS OF THE OPPRESSED.
HAVE A WONDERFUL VETERANS DAY CELEBRATION!!!

I HAVE BEEN PREPARING RESEARCH DATA, FOR SERVICE DOGS. I AM WORKING WITH A DEAR FELLOW, WHO IS DEFINITELY IN NEED. AS I HANDED HIM AN ENVELOPE, WITH SERVICE DOG TAGS AND OTHER RESEARCH DATA, HE STATED SOMETHING WHICH I COMPLETELY OVERLOOKED-MY SUMMATION FROM OUR BRIEF CONVERSATION THIS EVENING 20091028. I QUOTE AN INITIAL THOUGHT-'I WOULD LIKE TO WALK AROUND IRELAND!'. I COMPLETELY OVERLOOKED THAT HE HAS A COMPANION ANIMAL-'NICKY' AND THAT I AM SURE, 'NICKY' WOULD NOT WANT TO MISS AN EXPERIENCE LIKE THAT.
I THOUGHT ABOUT CONTACTING AAA, DUE TO THE FACT YOU CAN RECEIVE AN INTERNATIONAL DRIVERS LICENSE THROUGH THEIR ORGANIZATION. I ALSO THOUGHT ABOUT THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF STATE AND INQUIRING ABOUT THE POLICY AND PROCEDURE, FOR TRANSPORT TO A FOREIGN COUNTRY. THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE AND THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITY ACT, APPLIES TO THOSE INSIDE THE UNITED STATES. A DIFFERENTIAL AND A CLOSURE ANALYSIS IS IN ORDER.
AS WELL, FROM THE MEDICAL SIDE. WITH THE PRESCRIPTION FOR THE SERVICE ANIMAL, WILL A NEW PRESCRIPTION AND PHYSICAL BE NEEDED? WILL THIS DEAR FELLOW AND COMPANION HAVE TO BE VACCINATED FOR THAT PARTICULAR REGIONS NEW 'BUGS'? WILL THERE BE A QUARANTINE PERIOD FOR 'NICKY' THE COMPANION ANIMAL? WILL THERE BE A QUARANTINE PERIOD FOR THIS DEAR FELLOW?
I BRIEFLY SPOKE WITH THIS DEAR FELLOW, TWO DAYS AGO AND HE HAD MENTIONED SOMETHING CONCERNING AN ENTITLEMENT, FOR THE RESEARCH COLLECTED, SINCE I LIVE ON SOCIAL SECURITY FOR A DISABILITY. IN THE BEGINNING, I MENTIONED THAT ALL OF THIS RESEARCH DATA, WILL GO TO THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS-MEDICAL CENTER, WERE I LIVE IN NEVADA. WELL THE MORE RESEARCH I CAN GATHER-THE BETTER.
I RECEIVED OODDDLES, OF DATA AT THE STATE LEVEL AND BY THE TIME I GO BACK TO SEE MY NEUROLOGIST, I MAY HAVE PICKED UP ONE OR TWO BUGS MYSELF, AS PART OF SOME 'HYPOCHONDRIA'.
YOUR IMPUT IS GREATLY APPRECIATED AND IS FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THOSE WITH SPINAL CORD INJURIES, PARALYSIS, PTSD, BRAIN TRAUMA, AND A WHOLE HOST OF OTHER SERVICE CONNECTED DISABILITIES. GRANTED IF IT GOES AS PLANNED, I'LL HAVE ENOUGH RESEARCH TO PUT ON THE DESK OF SOME SOCIAL WORKERS DESK (THERE ARE FOUR I HAVE IN MIND AS I RELAY THIS DATA.)
YOUR HELP COULD OPEN THE DOOR TO A HOST OF VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES AND COULD POSSIBLY GET THOUSANDS OF ANIMALS OUT OF THE SHELTER SYSTEMS.
I DO ENJOY THE WONDERFUL STORIES I HEAR ABOUT MY COMPANION ANIMAL-'SHEEBA'. IN PARTICULAR TO THE RECENT-I WAS DOWN AT THE LOCAL CONVENIENCE STORE LAST NIGHT, AND A LADY CAME UP AND ASKED IF MY COMPANIONS NAME WAS 'SHEEBA'. SHE THEN MENTIONED THAT SHE VOLUNTEERS AT THE SHELTER WHERE I ADOPTED 'SHEEBA' AND WHERE 'SHEEBA' RECEIVED HER FIRST BATH. 'SHEEBA' HAS QUITE A FEW OBSTACLES TO OVERCOME AT PRESENT. HER LIVER IS TWO OR THREE TIMES THE SIZE OF HER STOMACH AND SHE HAS SPINAL PROBLEMS AND TWO OR THREE OTHER PROJECTS WHICH MUST BE WORKED ON. SHE IS SEVEN YEARS OLD AND A FULL BRED DALMATIAN. WE HAVE BEEN ATTACHED TO EACH OTHER SINCE DAY ONE.
WHEN I HAVE MEETINGS AT THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS-MEDICAL CENTER, I TAKE HER TO THE MEETINGS. I TAKE HER ON THE PUBLIC TRANSPORT. I TAKE HER TO THE GROCERY OR WHERE I GO TO PURCHASE RATIONS.
THE SELECTION OF HER VETERINARIAN, WAS THROUGH THE PACKET I RECEIVED AFTER ADOPTING 'SHEEBA', AT THE SPCA HERE IN NEVADA. HER VET IS AWESOME AND VERY CARING, AT LEAST FROM MY POINT OF VIEW. I WROTE A REVEIW ABOUT DOCTOR KUSHLAN (I CALL HER DOC), IN ONE OF THE LOCAL MEDIA DELIVERY SYSTEMS. I COULD NOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD ABOUT HER. SHE REMINDS ME OF SOMEONE CAUGHT IN THE SIXTIES, WITH THE ROSE COLORED GLASSES. I'M QUITE SURE, AS I NOSE AROUND TO ASK HER STAFF QUESTIONS (CAN DOCTOR KUSHLAN REALLY PERFORM SURGERY?, ETC. ETC. ETC.). IN THE CRUNCH, I THINK SHE HAS WHAT IT TAKES! ONE WOULD THINK THE SEPARATION WOULD BE GREAT-WHEN I TAKE 'SHEEBA' TO SEE DOC, I DON'T NECESSARILY GET THE PTSD AS 'SHEEBA' WANDERS TO THE BACK FOR THIS OR THAT. NOW I WAS CONCERNED WHEN 'SHEEBA', TOOK A FEW EXTRA MINUTES, TO GET TO HER PAWS, WHEN WE WENT IN THIS LAST TIME FOR RADIOGRAHS. I TOLD HER 'I WOULD BE RIGHT HERE WHEN YOU ARE DONE WITH YOUR TESTS!. THEN I PROCEEDED TO Q & A, DOC'S STAFF-MAKING SURE THAT 'SHEEBA' WAS IN THE VERY BEST HANDS.
THESE QUESTIONS, ANALYSIS, CONTEMPLATIONS, CONJECTURE WILL BE ALL THE MORE IMPORTANT FOR A VETERAN WITH THE PTSD, TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY, PARALYSIS, SPINAL CORD INJURY. THEY GAVE A NOBLE SACRIFICE, FOR MEN AND WOMEN, THEY HAVE NEVER MET OR KNEW. I HAVE TO GET TO THE 'AT EASE', BEFORE I START THE OLD WHINING.
THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A SOLDIER, SAILOR, AIRMAN OR MARINE-I HAVE EVER KNOWN, WHO WOULD GIVE UP THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRAVEL.(YES, THAT ALSO MEANS INSTEAD OF CIRCLING AROUND THE TARMAC!). SO THIS NEXT PORTION OF THE PROJECT IS VERY ESSENTIAL, TO PROVIDING A CV FOR RESEARCH RETRIEVAL FOR THE VETERAN.
I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR ANALYSIS AND YOUR INFORMED AND INTELLIGENT DECISIONS. THERE IS A GREATER EMPHASIS NOW ON THE 'WHOLE' UNIFORMED PERSONNEL. YOU CAN TRUST ME WHEN I SAY THEY HAVE A COMPANION ANIMAL FOR THAT AREA OF LIFE AS WELL. THANK YOU AND I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR COMMENTARY!
