I’ve been doing this blogue since 2006, and I think it has
its own flavor, it is different from what I’ve read in other blogs, and I think
I reach some people. It is not meant to be a literary gift to anyone including
myself, but a relationship with the reader and me. Good old ordinary folks are
what I love, not too fancy or self-important., that’s you! I want and love to
relate to you all.
Every day for the past 8 years, I have tried to write what I
feel, tell who I am and recognize all the wonderful people including my doctors
and neighbors in this blogue . It has been fun and sometimes easy and sometimes
hard. Someday it will end and I will know when the time is. I hope it isn’t
soon, but when the time comes I will let you know.
I have met some really wonderful people in my past, and
perhaps starting with the Fabulous 5 who encouraged me to write this blogue. There is
MFF (My Favorite Fan) Laura, who along with #1 Son Anthony encouraged me, and
what they did was gifted me, and for that I am grateful. There is Minnesota
Pete, Pete the Teacher, Justin and Jason, the creative geniuses of filmmaking.
That month in LA where I met these wonderful folks was a wonderful God given
gift for yours truly.
And since 2006, I have gone the road of pure joy, opinion,
and laughing at myself, with people such as Toots II: Lois, The Princess of
Foxwoods Points – Pat, Mr. Fixit and his lovely wife Corrine and my doctors,
who for some reason insist on keeping me alive, such as: Dr. Strangeglove, Dr.
Haveaheart and Dr. Seemore, all with their desperate attempts at healing my
body, instead of my mind.
But the people that more than anyone else who are just
wonderful sports, who have been kidded but in my heart respected, my sisters
and in-laws, and of course my parents, and needless to say, my wonderful wife
TLW (The Little Woman) and #1 and #2 sons., my little girl and TLC, (The Lovely
Courtney) who has brought a lot of joy to myself for being there for #1 Son,
and the mother of my first ever grandchild, and for most of all the goodness
that she is. That comes from her love of her parents, who did something very
right.
I guess what I am driving at is that this is very personal
to me, very close to my heart and soul, and you Dear Readers, are the reason.
Thank you after 8 years of writing. Please feel free to
comment when you feel it along the way

We all owe Dr. Strangeglove a debt for keeping you in the pink.
And thank YOU for 8 years of laughs and fond memories. You are a great storyteller and probably the best historian I know, especially when it comes to the Del Broccolo family. Keep up the good work!
