Feeling Lousy, Lonely, and Alone? I can express myself writing a column But for many Feb. 14 is a dark,
its an escape and I may get a date or two.
cloudy, rain drenched day with no silver lining,
cloud and a blue sun beaming bleak depression on us.

by Joe B. While waiting to perform some poetry I’m told about the banning of St. Valentine’s Day by an uptight guy named Cromwell, Oliver Cromwell, born in Huntingdon in 1599, was a strict Puritan with a Cambridge education when he went to London to represent his family in Parliament. Clothed conservatively, he possessed a Puritan fervor and a commanding voice, he quickly made a name for himself by serving in both the Short Parliament (April 1640) (information supplied by www.britannia. com/history/monarchs. Because this guy was both smart and such a Puritan. In the early 1600s: Oliver Cromwell's government bans St. Valentine's celebrations in England. Oliver Cromwell came to power, declared valentines immoral, and had them banned. Being a Puritan with strict ethics he saw the holiday and pagan and people just having all kinds of devilish fun at his God’s expense. The holiday and its customs are restored in 1660 when Charles II defeats the Roundheads and assumes the British throne Oliver Cromwell (1649-1658 AD) I’m thinking that Mr. G W B if not genetically is (dare I say spiritually of same stripe) and nothing sways him when he believes he’s in the right. Lord, deliver me from the righteous who may think they’re doing your will but haven’t a clue to why you lived, died are opened heaven for us all. As for all the women, young girls, and/or mature wymyn going through their own personal hell. May you meet your equal half whatever sexual orientation you and they may be and finally find your slice of personal heaven(s). It’s a horror story some lives are going through and if one survives it might get even worse as some of our so called idiot leader rush foolishly into a bloody, stupid war. An you lover’s, hold each other tight, don’t break apart unless it cannot be helped. My love life is floating and hasn’t drifted to ground yet. The best thing for me is checking out the new "Good Vibrations" that had an open house last Saturday and Sunday. While I’m not with a current "friend." I might as well by books, video, dvd’s and pleasurable massage equipment so the next "friend" met will have a much relaxed and better time than either our last folks did. Tell me, folks-when you‘re single still are what does one do on Saint Valentine’s Day? Be anonymous if you want. After a break up, or Well, that’s my Valentine for anyone by their lonesome but lonesome doesn’t necessarily mean alone sometimes people need their spaces that separate space. Got places to go, people to confuse. Bye. |
