Halloween is almost upon us and then Christmas and as usual it hits us by surprise. Why does it happen you ask, well blame it on the pilgrims why couldn't they pick a better time for Thanksgiving. Were they wanting to spring Christmas a month earlier, if so then was it a desperate attempt to befriend the local natives before the first snowfall. We all heard the stories of the first Thanksgiving, but has it fallen away into a distant fog of those grammar school days. After Thanksgiving comes 'Black Friday' a family activity with our loves one's the Christmas pre-sale, the moment that people either head to the stores in droves, or go buy a Tree or decorations to set the festive mood in motion.
Well I just can't wait for the festivities to begin, I need some holiday cheer after morning my cousins death for about 15 years. Yes, I know it seems and awfly long time to be morning someone, but then we were like brothers growing up together, which explains little or nothing, you see my cousin was the type that found laughter and joy in everything being the times good or bad, nothing really got him down, he always laughed...
Xmas around the corner and it will come fast and ferious since the economy will start to pick up again, people will be entering new jobs, getting acclimated to the new environment. Exhaustion from trying so hard the first 90days on the job, and catching up with the bills, and wondering if anyone will give you a break.
Well I decided that maybe that break needs to come sooner than later. Sooner since it will put everything back into motion again, by your purchase your giving someone beside myself, a job, something to do this holiday. In fact sales figures for halloween have pretty much flatlined, sales were non-existant for the most part and no one is buying. In fact the two companies that made great sales in my area were giving away bags of selling gold and Lord & Taylor, which fired half its workers, reduced the hours of the other half, took away thier benifits, and then did a family day with the staff they had left. And this season when you shop your going to experience the same thing, never-ending lines, people fitting over merchandise in the stores, dark parking lots, less than adequate security, lots of cars broken into since some people will do anything to survive, and exhausted sales associates that won't go any faster at the checkout counter, because after so many hours, only rest would really help.
My solution would be to shop at you own pace, don't worry that the news is not reporting local crimes, just buy the Sunday paper and take a look, you might see something weird, dis-information. Then visit you local court house and find thier schedule full, yes cases are now beyond the six month waiting list, to process a loan re-negotiation it is now taking Wells Fargo and Union Trust over a year before a court date. Wells Fargo and Union Trust are giving customers 3 days from mailing to receive documentation of hardship, big business is doing everything to make the President look bad. And the lists of things going wrong just gets longer, but thats because our previous President never cared about us and let things go to congress. The reason for "CSPAN" broadcasting congressman passing new laws, but the congressman saying, "You don't have to read the articles of the bill", when did Americans lose the right to know about new laws passed in congress, and congressmen will continue to do this for the next two years, until the president finds out, but they kept him busy on other issues, the big smoke screen.
And then my solution would be to be cautious and look at what is waiting, what is happenning and realize, you can shop in the comfort and safety of your home day or night, begin your holiday shopping early, do it in stages and on a budget, so you don't have to rush, first your holiday decorations, then your xmas wish list, then the unexpected visitor wish list. This will keep your costs down, your stress level low, and hopefully you can avoid from being a victum of the your local mall.

Affordable Healthcare
I am unemployed and everyday I search for a method for a solution. The news giving conflicting information, as these were the affects of the Bush administration, the O'bama administration trying to promote an affordable solution that already exists. The world turned upside down with NJ declaring bankruptcy can anyone really win in these times.
Well the solution is not that far, I neither work nor have any association with products or services that I suggest, so I have nothing to lose because I myself have not tried them, but with combined effort I beleve there is a solution. I will post this message to my blog, drive traffic and hopefully, someone will comment and recommend something better, or tell someone else, and maybe they will have the information, at the moment I have several ways that you can contribute to this cause, but in all cases you contribute by reading these words and recommending me to someone else. If you decide to contribute more than you buy a clickbank product, buy something at DorothysAttic.com for Christmas, or just read, but always be responsible with your spending. I could leave everything automated, but refuse since I want shopping to be a personal and social experience i.e. I have a chat window for colaboration of gift ideas. I realize this sounds daunting, but then again everything in life requires effort.
My experince is the following, and I don't think anyone else hasn't been in this position, but then you have to worry about paying for healthcare. And here goes the facts, you don't have to pay for continued healthcare, because while you were working you were paying into Medicaid and Medicare. At a certain age you qualify for Medicaid, but for Medicare you qualify just by existing, for years hospital clinics have been attending to the poor without coverage for a minimal fee, every hospital charges differently, but can not refuse you service, they will even put you on a payment plan if you can't pay. And we have the president promoting socialized medicine when we always had it, just that we didn't realize we already did, sounds like a smoke screen about nothing and we as citizens are paying him to say nothing. So my surprise the other day that I get a call from HealthCare One wanting to charge me healthcare coverage for $69.95, thier service works for small business because its affordable, 800-360-5779, but then again the new healthcare law really means having to pay for Medicaid and Medicare contributions. Many small businesses will get suckered by the insurance companies, since they lost a good amount of business from the layoffs. The president made a real mistake by creating layoffs, he was better off following Mexico and just doing a National Holiday, but then again this is what we elected, we elected a national recession and bailout package where the taxpayer ends up paying the debt. And at this moment the president is on CNN, giving a speech, and solving nothing.

OzModius - "Split Infinity"
| 10/11/1985 | OzModius 10:00pm |
| S.i.s.a: "Your journey begins today, we have done all we can do to solve the problem, but nothing has worked and nothing else can be done." | |
| OzModius "You mean you created a problem which you can not fix and you failed, and now I have to live with the consequences, of the problem you created. Have you ever heard of Karma." | |
| S.i.s.a: "Yes, and I realize that I will have to pay an awful price for what I have done. Especially since N.L.C.F. created the damage and I am a daughter of the order." | |
| OzModius "So your order created the problem and now you can't even save yourself, sounds like your plans were intentional and manipulative, to the extent you left no room for recourse." | |
| S.i.s.a: "All I can offer is my apologies and a phone call, but she won't remember the call. The phone rings." she picks up the phone and says, "Happy Birthday, do you mind speaking to my guest while I go to the powder room.", but she doesn't leave the room, she quietly monitors the phone conversation. | |
| OzModius "Happy day of birth (spanish)" the person at the other end gigles and asks, "you don't speak spanish much?" and I explained to her that my parents had a long ancestry and so any other language other than english is a second language and so with any language, practice make perfect. In the middle of the conversation I asked "Are you ready for this?", but S.i.s.a pulled the phone from my hands. | |
| S.i.s.a: "She doesn't know, and will have no idea whats happening until its too late and the time loop has started again, all I can do is offer my apollogies to you, your friends, and your family." | |
| OzModius "Your appollogy is unacceptable until you pay for your crimes, but then again N.L.C.F. will fall under its own weight and your existance will become null and void, is that what you really wanted, or was it a chance to live or was it just a rouse so you can try to redeem yourself?" | |
| S.i.s.a: "Just leave." Not a tear in her eye, not even a sign of moistness in her eye, for she was a malicious soul from the order of N.L.C.F. which was going to pay for her crimes in the future, because she was looking for a way out. | |
| 1995 Father's Day | M.I.L.A "Globalization does not work, that's the basis of my thesis. It cost me a year to compile" |
| OzModius "And of course your teachers were satisfied with the proofs you gave, because that explains what will be happening inside of this country of Ecuador. Like this restaurant the "The Crater", but the reasons go much deeper than that. What is really on your mind?" She blushed knowing I noticed her idle chit chat. There was a reason behind this excursion, yes a motive, a plot which was unfolding after my cousin's death on Christmas day 1993. My brother, her, her sister, and my cousin, which had confessed to the plot on the eve of his death. Maybe he told me, because he knew he was going to die, and the last persons that he would see that day, was my brother and I. M.I.L.A. had turned sheep white and grimaced at the scene behind me. | |
| M.I.L.A "I hate that man, and I hate what he's doing. Imagine his daughter making herself like the first lady, being that her mother died several years ago. Now he has to come here today and spoil our lunch date, and also this moment." | |
| OzModius I watched the black limousines with the Ecuadorian flags come up the hill with a full military entourage, a film crew, reporters and musicians. the hostess walked out the front door and welcomed the president and his daughter and he walked passed into the restaurant and said, "Thank you for being here, and excuse the interuption, but I wish you all enjoy this momentus occasion this Father's day, and I wish that you all enjoy the food and this historic occassion." President Majil with his entourage walked into the next room. | |
| M.I.L.A "Ugh, I can't stand him, I don't know why I voted for him." Violin strings and a harp started playing and M.I.L.A's face grew redder with rage. "The reason behind this excursion was because I need to tell you something...", but then the waitress came and delivered our food orders when she was about to reveal her reasons for the excursion. | |
| OzModius "We are on this date because you lost another bet and your married is that right?" | |
| M.I.L.A "You were supposed to be a booty call, but then I fell in love with you and now I can't do it anymore" | |
| OzModius "You really mean your husband is in the country, and he bet that I couldn't do something amazing within 48 hours of being in this country, but in order to save me you found out that the president was having lunch in this restaurant, and have arranged everything hoping to save my life, but he has already planned a scene for a party that I will be attending tomorrow night." | |
| M.I.L.A "My husband is dangerous, and well we had an open marriage until I fell in love with you, now he justs wants to kill you..." | |
| OzModius "But he won't kill me, he may throw a punch, but then again he won't be able to throw another without misssing and putting his own life in danger in the process..." | |
| M.I.L.A "You don't know my husband he's insane with anger when it comes to me, and on top of it all he's muslim. They don't believe in the wife asking for divorce, but it's ok for the husband." | |
| OzModius "But you hate your husband, ever since you walked in on him and found him making love to your sister..." | |
| M.I.L.A "How did you know about that..." | |
| OzModius "I saw him playing soccer before I left, and he was bragging about sleeping with your sister, and right in front of my brothers face. The information left him sick to his stomach, to the extent that it is the reason behind me telling you that I don't want our affair to involve your sister or my brother, they are a match made in heaven, using everyone around them as scapeghosts, but then again my married brother has another girlfriend and his wife has grown suspicous." | |
| M.I.L.A "Now I'm really worried..." | |
| OzModius "Look, we could worry ourselves to death, but then again we can enjoy this meal and this moment, just give me a moment to figure out what needs to be done next. And don't worry about the party; I have everything under control since everything I need will be at the party." | |
| M.I.L.A "But what about your brother's wife, won't she cause trouble for you?" | |
| OzModius "Of course she will, I'm counting on the fact she will, always making me look like the bad influence when my brother is really the bad influence seeking to gain my parents love, and thier wealth, my poor parents will never know what hits them until thier in it too deep, trying to save a failing marriage. I knew this months after my brother got married and ran away to California. The way he's going he is bound to repeat his actions again..." | |
| M.I.L.A M.I.L.A looked frightened, but after a few short breaths she calmed down, and her hands stoppped shaking while picking up her fork. "How do you feel about going out dancing and folkoric music?" | |
| OzModius "I'm open to many things...", At that moment the president came over to our table shook my hand, noticed my accent and asked, "who are you?" I looked at him in surprise as I noticed he wanted to have a conversation with me, "I'm here on vacation, visiting the birthplace of my parents, and enjoying the place, the people and the culture. I've been here less than forty-eight (48) hours and I'm already meeting the president, and I only really came to see the progress of the 'Restoration Project of Santo Domingo' and my uncle, but will be spending more time with my grand-parents." The president looked impressed and asked, "What hand did you have in the project?" and in response I said, "I didn't do much, but taught a teacher how to use the software available, created a course outline, so that others could be taught, and saved the project from having to send everyone for training to America to take a $20,000 course each person...", the project had about 500-1000 people involved. "...I didn't ask for any monetary payment, but asked for a plaque honering me for my contribution, this I did so that the project wouldn't go bankrupt, giving birth to a new industry, but only time will tell if everything will workout in the end." The president turned to his daughter and said, "May I introduce my daughter Daniel" and I replied "Mucho Gusto...", meaning "With pleasure" or "Enchanted", she kissed me on the check and wispered to her father in her ear. The president asked, "Are you single?", and I replied, "I don't really know, me and my date and I were discussing that before you came over, and I really don't know, but I will be at Andy's birthday party tomorrow night, will your daughter be attending the party?", Daniel knodded and said, "Hasta pronto..." meaning "Soon" or "eventually on a positive note", and smiled and left; the president shook my hand one last time and the reporters took pictures and the film crews filmed a ten second scene. | |
| M.I.L.A She looked nervous and said, "You know we will be on the news tonight. Now my husband will really want to kill you..." | |
| OzModius "You worry too much, Daniel will show up to the party, body gaurds in hand and your husband and the idea of guns or bloodshed will be the last thing he has to worry about, but back to the topic at hand. Are you still my girlfriend, lover or other?" | |
| M.I.L.A "You are either the bravest person I know or crazy, I don't know which, but I love you and I can't let you go..." | |
| OzModius "So from now on we don't talk about you being married, we avoid the hostilities that my brother, his wife, your sister and thier triangle, and try to make the best that life has to offer because that is all we have to give each other." | |
| M.I.L.A "I understand about the thing about what life has to offer, but I don't understand what you mean with the rest." | |
| OzModius "I'll tell you after the dance, when we have some time to seriously discuss the matter further, but we have to get going because I have dinner to attend shortly, you have to get back to your husband who is furious at the moment. Just when you get home don't turn on the TV until after the news. The camera had a CNN logo on the side." | |
| Cuz "Hi Cuz, how was your lunch date?" | |
| OzModius "It went fine, what time is it, nevermind just turn on the TV." My cousin walked over to the TV and turned it on and walked back to where I was, "You know I have outdone myself again, I have gotten myself into trouble again, and this time by having lunch with the president and his daughter, she even kissed me on the check." | |
| Cuz "You're here less than 48 hours and your meeting the president...", I started to walk over to the television as the commercial was finishing, and the newscaster began saying, "Good evening and in todays top story's the President and his daughter...", I chimed in, "at 'The Crater'...", and all my cousin could say was "Oh my God" after every scene, because that night was the launch of CNN international where top stories would be rebroadcasted, with me and M.I.L.A beside the President and his daughter Daniel for the whole world, he looked at me concerned and said, "When you get in trouble you let the whole world know about it." | |
| OzModius "I don't think anyone can live this down, but I will try to not let it interfer with my life..." | |
| Cuz "People, have been trying to get reservations to that restaurant for weeks knowing the president was going to have lunch thier, how the hell did you get past security." | |
| OzModius "I didn't they just ran a security check by runnning my credit card where they got all my information, they made us wait an hour for the president and cleared the restaurant for the rest of the couples attending. The scene was sureal as if you knew you were being watched, but that's the least of my worries. I have to get ready for a birthday party tomorrow and don't feel much like eating at the moment." | |
| Cuz "Birthday party tomorrow, why wasn't I invited?" | |
| OzModius "You can come along as long as your brother permits, it will be exciting with Daniel showing up at the party, of course you didn't hear it from me..." | |
| Cuz "She's going to the party? Man you live a complicated life." | |
| OzModius "I counting on the rumor she will attend, she might not, but if she really diggs me, she'll make every effort to make it to the party." With that my cousin left as he saw me put my plate away for eating later. | |

OzModius - 2003/9/28 - 01:19
In CT over my brother in law. People may wonder what the heck I'm doing in CT, but then we had a conversation about how every couple before they get married always forget to have The Mantle piece, but then again it isn't a hard thing to do, just like writing this blog. I have written this entry in about five minutes, just let my thoughts and feeling flow. Let gift giving flow from within and be optimistic.
A little inspiraton to the buyer who wrote she wanted something for under $25.00 for the couple that has everything. A few years ago I had the pleasure of visiting J.F.Kennedy space center in Cape Canerveral, Florida. I gave my older brother for Christmas the one thing we were not able to buy when we first went to the Space Center and that happen to be the Space Blanket it cost $2.50, but the tears in his eyes were priceless; especially since it was in front of family. Also I gave him another gift, which while had no real bearing now has been significant, because he wears it everyday, because he remembers the space blanket.
Nothing is impossible unless you give in ...

Anime Girls - Unfaithful
The lyrics tell a powerful story, and the anime is superb. One of these days I will have to write the reasons for such a pleasure with anime, but for now you have a video behind another story which will leave you thinking. Thinking is one thing, acting is another, a measured event avoids the inevitable, but causes resentment and jealousy.

OzModius - September 2008 - The Mantle Piece
September is one of the months that either has two important events, the winding down of the summer wedding season or the kids going back to school. Some couples like the September wedding because kids can't attend if the wedding has mostly 99.9% adults and one or two children. And so you now have one of the reasons for the September wedding, but also the best reason has to be price, especially if your have four seasons like the East Coast. The West Coast can pretty much have weddings year round with some months not good for beach weddings; Florida, Texas, Louisiana and Arizona really seams to have two or three climates hot, hotter, and tornado depending on the geographical area and if your facing the gulf. But no matter where you live there still is the struggle that you have finding the perfect wedding gift.
You get the invitation to the wedding and carefully open the invitation and get the usual, which is the invitation and the stores the couple has registered for the gifts. I don't know about you, but both buying and registering for gifts are just as arduous, each event costs me 20 hours of hunting, which does not seem bad if your single, but if your married you have to practice time management. In which case; when you receive the wedding invitation; your hoping its for next month and not two months away, with two months everyone just procrastinates and then as a coordinated mafia hit, waits for that special weekend, and proceeds to purchase the same gift. Its like trying to book a business trip in the middle of "Spring Break".
Fortunately I have had the experience of the September wedding and this is how it went. Received the invitation to the wedding, but no bridal registry, so I asked my friend what he wanted, he just said "...just get me whatever, you always come up with something good, and do you have a date?", I told him "Yes, I'll have to see if my mistress (form of address) is available for the wedding." I asked Mila if she was available for the wedding, saying, "what should I wear..." soon after both questions were answered I was out buying and evening dress and a wedding gift. One of my friends offered a nice cocktail dress, which fit Mila perfectly. I never told her it was my friends prom dress, but the less she new the better. I spent close to forty hours with the dress and finding the present.
I hunted and hunted and always came up short, but then I remember my friend mentioned having a fire place and his soon to be wife joking about how a NFL boble head figurine is not a mantle piece, the first item as far as a mantle piece was an elephant and cub, but then that didn't bode to well since non of them elephants brought then any luck, so I went searching more and found something that look like sea world encarnate, but then that did not do, I even saw a tiny Budha but somethign wasn't right, so I started over again at another store and then I found it. A crystal ornament with a hole set for a a time piece, yet no time piece when I checked the package, ran back to the store, returned the clock and asked the clerk if they had something simular with a clock. "Yes, we have something simulare, but its a little smaller than what your looking for...", I asked her to show me, and told her it what I was looking for.
The next day the wedding and me rushing from CT to NY to pick up Mila, and the three hour tour like Gilligans Island, thankfully I had Mila to talk my head off driving to the wedding. All went well getting to the wedding on time, but the weather turned and so the whole thing was moved indoors, imagine snow flurrys during indian summer, but the party had good music, booze, and dancing. Towards the end of the night I had to drive Mila home, I said my good-byes to everyone, the bride asked me to one side and said, "I opened your present, how did you know...", I put my finger to my lips and said, "there are stranger things that happen in this universe everyday, just be happy I can't give a gift without putting my heart and soul into it...". With that she gave me a bear hug and a kiss and we said our farwells, On the way out my friend shook my hand and said the same thing as his wife, I just looked at him and said, "asked your wife what she just told me and I'll speak to you tomorrow.

Busy weeks in preparation for holidays...
I love the holidays because the shopping deals are like no other time of the year. In a conversation with one of my marketing guys he was stating that people were scared last year to buy anything in fear of the new president, but he is expecting this christmas season to prosper with last minute shopping. I thought about this hard, overwhelmed with the idea that a web store needs to keep its web page static for at least six months to become popular and let the word out. I am hoping to offer my customers these unique products before everyone starts to go into a short production haul. What is a short production haul? A term used in retail related to the "black friday" estimates, but most retailers have a friends and family shopping nights a week or two before Thanksgiving as an experiment. The products you see during the month of October in the stores is the merchandise you will see for Christmas; and for the month of December; after the completion of "black Friday" figures; you will see door stoppers. Door stoppers are another term for a product that makes you stop and say "wow!!!" and you end up buying it, when you don't really need it, but what the heck it only costs $20.00 dollars. Its the famous Billy Mays pitch, i.e. buy this mascara and get the free cosmetic bag, and if your lucky you'll get the bag in the store, or end up with a coupon which you'll most likely redeem or not.
In a commitment to circumstances I have done plenty of work on DorothysAttic.com to bring the Holidays early, offer great deals from the beggining and pour over lots of html, marketing persons and doing analytical data of my competitors that sell similar items, and finding no one is doing anything like this at the moment, but things can change and prices could go up or down according to the outlook of pre-beta black fridays. The fortunate thing is that my inventory dynamically updates every month and I am able to follow the updates so that you don't end up scrambling for a gift at the last moment. Now if you get stuck, just bye yourself a "door stopper" for yourself, do the lego block fascination thing with your friends, gloat and wallow in your victory and make a general list of a toy you would like your family and friends to have, because at deep down inside your still a Child inside and gift giving shouldn't be reserved for the holidays.
