The Town Crier: NEWSLETTER (Updated April 22, 2012)

 

Straight from the editor’s room

The reason we have decided to call this page of our web site Town Crier is because the Frankegeorgalis.com web site is like a little town which is visited by many important, unimportant, bad and good people to speak with Frank Georgalis and he writes about them. George W. Bush, Dick Chaney,  Barrack Obama, Maria Magdalene, Jesus, Herod Antipas who was Salome’s stepfather and had a secret about Salome .

Some of the visitors are still alive, some real, some imaginary and some have long passed into the other side of this world, but Frank has gotten a hold of what they left behind in words or in deeds. The writer brings them to life and reminisces what they had done while walking on this earth..

 

 

 

 

Spring Cleaning in Afghanistan 

Militants attacked jail and more 400 have escaped.  Are they coming to America looking for political sanctuary. Geese used to come down in the winter months but they like it so much they refuse to back up North.

If Obama is still the president by the time the convicts get here, he is going to find shelter for them even if he has to make more Americans homeless. We also have the Cordoba house of prayer for them, I suppose those convicts are Muslims and not Catholics or Greek Orthodox. Thanks to Obama and Mayor Bloomberg. What wonderful guys they are. Clinton raised his hand and said that he had something to do with the rebuilding of the 4,000 square foot mosque near Ground Zero; what a guy he is too.

Multiple attacks by Taliban on Kabul and other Afghanistan cities they call it “Spring Cleaning” That type of “Spring Cleaning”, we should have here in America to sweep away some of the political and social trouble makers.

 

 

 

 

 

Black men account for 6.5% of the US population, and commit 80% of all violent crimes.
~FBI Statistics

 A brief discussion between two friends.

 When is the law enforcement agencies are going to start prosecuting the criminals?

Never!

Never? I, see because they are not white. Is that justice?

Yes it’s justice; it’s racial justice. Punish the whites and reward the blacks because blacks have paid their dues 200 years\ ago

 Did you hear that;

The New Black Panther Party made up by American Black Muslims, offered a $10,000 bounty for Zimmerman and his lawyers said Zimmerman had received death threats.

Yes but did you hear that;

The New Socialist Movement, a white supremacy group, said they were patrol Sanford to protect whites and racists comments about the shooting have sprung up on social media sites. I am waiting to see the KKK to appear all robed up but with their faces exposed.

This case is getting out of hand. Debate over the shooting became so widespread that even President Obama commented, saying if he had a son he would have looked like Trayvon Martin. He wouldn’t be bueeyed blond, besides he hadn’t seen any new pictures of him  I think the oldest picture they showed was 14 years old.

The best is yet to come, stick around.  I read the other day that Tyler Perry made a left turn from the right lane and was stopped by the police and he is suing the state Georgia on racial profile. His decision to get stopped was with intend to make a statement about Zimmerman and the unprovoked killing of a 17 year old black student

Tyler Perry is a writer, an actor and film maker and highest paid person in the entertainment world, making over 130 million dollars in the year 2011. He wasn’t recognized by the white police that stopped until a black officer came to the scene.  One look at him the black officer informed the officer who he was and one of them went and apologized to him.

Don’t ever underestimate the black people’s power.

But you can never overestimate a white people’s strength.

EXTRA! EXTRA! EXTRA!

My Brief Encounter with Youth and Beauty.

I may very well be a wrinkled up aging man but I get away because I still see myself as young, rich, handsome and smart. Last week I was riding on the back running board of a minibus in an Asian country where I now live. There I was standing holding the overhead rail with both hands. I noticed that I was standing  in the middle of two young native school boys who held on nothing but their youth. The interior of the mini bus was filled with high school girls in their uniform, white blouse and blue skirt that stopped two inches above the knee. Suddenly my eyes fell on a young beautiful student and I felt her eyes meeting mine as if she were responding to my brief gaze.  She eventually gave me a quick discreet smile. She continued speaking with her friends but her mind was on me but her eyes discreetly leaned on me once in a while. She eventually lowered her eyes and disregarded her girl friends for a long moment knowing that I was paying attention to her. She eventually reached behind her, pulled out a ribbon from her hair holder that made it  into a pony tail and let it loose and let it fall on her shoulders. The whole encounter lasted ten minutes.

Coming to my destination I jumped off the running board and looked behind me I saw the young women going the opposite direction.

“You are beautiful,” I said, turning my head to her.                                                                                “Thank you, and you are a very sexy man,” she replied half turned to go.                                           “I see you speak English very well.”                                                                                                                  “Yes. My father is Norwegian and mother is a native and we all speak English at home,” she said. “I never met your father but I have seen many Norwegian; I didn’t find them attractive; I think your looks come from your mother not your father.”                                                                                “Good bye,” she said, walking away. looking at me with a smile.                                                             “You flirted with me in the bus,” I said                                                                                                            “Yes, I did, I find you very sexy man.  Did you flirt with me?”                                                                    “No. I only marveled your youth and beauty.”                                                                                          “That’s the secret that makes you sexy,” she said walking away.                                                       “Nothing so beautiful, nothing so bold as the school girl who is 16 years old,” I uttered a little louder.                                                                                                                                                                 “I am seventeen.” She replied without turning around or stopping. I should have cried for being so old, but instead I laughed. I felt I was in the spring time, not real a real one, but a fake. I knew that I made lemons out of lemonade.

News From Iran and About Iran

   

Khruschev Castro                 John F Kennedy

French President Nicolas Sarkozy said on Friday “time is running out” for a diplomatic solution and urged Russia and China to drop their opposition to sanctions on Iranian oil

It is not known whether China has heard the cries from the French president, but it is known that China has urged Iran to resume talks on its nuclear ambitions. Chinese Assistant Foreign Minister Wu Hailong said Beijing wants the issue resolved peacefully through talks and not through sanctions and “military means.” 01/21/12

Iran has said, it is ready to return to talks with world powers that stalled one year ago, but the West, concerned about Tehran’s move of the most sensitive atomic work to a bomb-proof bunker, says it must first see a willingness from Tehran to address the nuclear issue.

Iran is OPEC’s second biggest exporter and blocking its crude exports- through the EU embargo or U.S. moves to punish banks that trade with Iran – could have a devastating impact on its economy but there are no signs so far such pressure would force it to stop what it calls its peaceful nuclear rights.

 

Here and now it is time for people to be reminded of the 1962 incident between Russia and US about the attempted delivery of rockets with nuclear ability by the Russians to Cuba. John F Kennedy on October 22 appeared on live TV asking Khrushchev to turn the ships back, Khrushchev did not respond, and 2 days later on October 24^th US Navy stopped embarked one of the sailing ships. On October 28^th Khrushchev notified John F Kennedy that the ships were turned back. That was the first and the last time the world had come so close to nuclear war. Remember this! The sudden change of events, it was learned later, Khrushchev turned the ships back because Castro called him and told him not to pay attention to American President and made it clear one day after the arrival of the nuclear rockets he would use them to shrink America to an island. Khrushchev realized that he was dealing with a sick man, Fidel Castro and ever since then until his death he kept him on line.

I personally do not know if the Iranian leaders are not suffering of the same sickness as Fidel Castro.

 

Muslim students burn an effigy of the Pope in Allahabad, India. Obama apologized to Muslims for burning of the Koran which was not intentional, instead of asking the Muslims to apologize to the Christians for burning of the Churches, but his first religious book was the Koran.

The burning of the Koran is serious to Muslims: the burning of the Christian churches in Nigeria by Muslims and killing innocent Christians is nothing to them, the burning of the Christian church in Cairo is nothing to them. They claim that Americans have like Muslim children but the Muslims themselves killed more than anyone can count Time has come for the Muslims to be burned you wait and see.  If they don’t stop with the developing of the atomic weapons in IRAN, that will be the first place we will see people melting standing up. It happened in Japan, but we saw very little of it because TV was not born yet, but we saw pictures and we read  all about it. The Koran ain’t going to help you, because Prophet Mohammad has had it with you animals

 

 

 

 

 

OBAMA and Wife visiting England and Meeting The Queen

Obama, visiting England and meeting Queen Elizabeth for the first time, did not bow before her, because she is a white Christian powerful woman.

 

 

He did bow in front of Islam

 

 

 

American civil liberties union (ACLU)

Is suing the American government for not allowing entry of Islam students in our country. The members of that organization which I like to refer to them as the MISFITS  are stupid enough to think that Muslims have American civil rights before they enter our county. If they feel so strong about their mission they should sue America  and other European countries for imposing sanctions on Iran and North Korea,

because sanctions do impose hardship on their citizens

Keep Sharia Law Out of Americazation

A woman is about to be beheaded for practicing witchcraft in her home

The reality of sharia law « Mandeno Musings

Last week in Tennessee, a Republican legislator introduced a bill that would make following sharia — Islamic law — a felony, punishable by up to 15 years in prison. How such a law would be enforced is not clear; furthermore, it’s probably unconstitutional.                                                                                                The belief in Sharia may be protected by the constitution, but not the execution in punishment. It is clear, though, that an anti-sharia movement is growing in the United States.

Terrorism, Sharia Law, & the United States

Last year Oklahoma voters approved a measure that bars courts from considering sharia. Similar measures have now been introduced or passed in at least 13 other states. Indeed, anti-Muslim political operatives have been warning of “creeping sharia” and “Islamist lawfare” for years, though the anti-sharia efforts have gained new prominence in recent months due the fact that Islamists think they have gained power with the backing of many American politicians including Obama and the Clintons and the ACLU. Can any one imagine Obama, the president of the United States of America to praising the new Libyan Leader Mustafa Abdul Jalil for turning his agenda to make Libya a Sharia Law State, where strange men can take a woman and whip her in public for wearing a bra? ACLU is suing United States for not allowing the entry to our country of some Muslims.

 

 

no place in Australia for sharia law, full stop” … Andrew Scipione

The silent majority have awaken and have loaded their guns and are ready to shoot at the intruders. The Muslims are not smart enough to know that they have awaken a sleeping giant, the Japanese found that out with the bombing of Perl Harbor in WWII. Our country, the “Land of Good and Plenty” is full of Water Holes that Sharia is looking for, but the Muslims will see “WATER, WATER everywhere and not a drop for them to drink”.

 

 

 

 

 

Deportation of Mexicans and Importation of Muslims

 

 

Their parents were deported

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s government says nearly 9,000 Mexicans caught as illegal migrants in Arizona have been flown to Mexico City the past two months under a voluntary repatriation program.

The Interior Department says in a Thursday statement that the migrants returned in daily flights from Tucson between July 11 and Wednesday.

The returnees took buses to their hometowns, most the poor southern states of Oaxaca, Chiapas and Guerrero.

U.S. officials say desert temperatures in the Mexico-Arizona border region soar to deadly levels in the summer, and deporting migrants to just across the border only encourages them to try again.

About 125,000 people have taken part in the repatriation program since it began in the summer of 2004.

GOOD GOOD GOOD Send them back. How they dare to come here and accept all kinds of dirty work for less than $2 per hour? They are poor, they have to go to make room for the Muslims, the nicest people in the world and they have money. I really don’t know if they have money, but assume they have money. , that is why the NYC mayor is going out of his way, doing so many good things for the Muslims to settle on top of the biggest grave yard in our country that they created by getting some dummies to run the planes into the buildings on 9/11. The money hound dog Bloomberg must have smelled their money The founders of Cordoba House are planning to build High rise builds all over America. Arizona deporting the Mexicans are on the right track to receive a Muslim complex in Phoenix. It will be like a school house to teach islam philosophy. We really don’t want to miss that knowledge of how to start brush fires with dynamites, in hotels, schools, hospitals and many other paces that house many people.

 

News Release

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — October 30, 2011 A Taliban suicide bomber rammed a van into an armored NATO bus Saturday, killing 13 American troops and four Afghans in the deadliest attack on coalition forcesin Kabul since the war began — a major setback for the U.S.-led coalition as it begins to draw down combat troops.

The Taliban said the bomber, Abdul Rahman, was driving a Toyota SUV containing 1,540 pounds of explosives targeting foreign military vehicles and they said that 25 lives were wasted by the blast

It is hard to understand that the brazen assault occurred on the same day that top NATO and Afghan officials were meeting elsewhere in Kabul to discuss the second phase of of shifting security responsibilities to Afghan forces in all or part of 17 of the country’s 34 provinces. A logic mind would think that the Taliban should behave knowing that efforts are made for NATO forces to leave their country. Learning some of their illogical actions I tend to think that logic is rare animal with Muslims. Traveling on this thinking path I cannot help feeling that many American politicians commit illogical acts, namely Barack Obama who is hopeful for a second term, goes ahead and vividly embraces Sharia Law and the erection of Cordoba House in New York City, knowing that 66% of the American people don’t look favorably upon these, unless he thinks he can pull a rabbit out of the hat that will put a chicken on every pot of the American people or he thinks he can win election with 34% of the vote. This, come to think, is not so rare because George W. Bush had 33% of the people on his side, but reelection came to him with the majority of the votes.

 

 

 

 

Stop Muslims Entering America: Article II

 

 

We’re off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wiz of ISLAM

They claim that they want to teach us their culture. They note that “a culture of impunity reigns around honor crimes. There is a general acceptance in society (and sympathy among judges) of men’s right to murder or harm women to ‘preserve honor.’

When the President was asked if he is supporting the building the Cordoba house Islam worship he replied that the contitution of the United States of Americ will give thewm thev right tpo build it. HE IS A FOOL or hev thinks we are the fools. The constitution ofd the United Stsat4s of America has nothing to do with any building.

President Obama Signs order on lifting Military Ban On Homosexuality

Fools rush in, where wise men stay out.  The editor wants to induct President Obama in THE SHIP of  FOOLS, not that he did anything wrong but for doing nothing right.                                                                                                                                                                                           Doesn’t he know for every Gay vote he gets he will loose at least 10  of  Christian votes? Anyone who has visited a psychologist or psychologist will say that right safter they lay on the couch one of the first question asked was around sex and the method is used by patient in having sex. THe doctors will say that “A man’s behavior is his true image.”

Jesus declared that a man will not wear a woman’s garments and a woman will not wear a man’s garments. Why? He was really speaking about society. He did not believe that homosexuals were born as homosexuals. If he believed that they are born as homosexuals and have no choice, he would have made another statement saying, for instance, for the rest of to accept the ones who are different, because they cannot help being different.

Does’t anybody know in the pentagon that most gays are environmental product? Do they want to send 30,000 good men soldiers to war and get back 35,000 ladyboys? Don’t the people we elected know that most gays are like whores, who do it for the thrill.  Some of the gays have sex anywhere anytime up to ten times a day with ten different partners. What do, our political representatives think will happen when 5 to 6 uncontrolled young gays are thrown into a bunch of 40 sexually frustrated young men?

The first Bush would say: “Read my lips, the gays will be shredded to pieces like Philadelphia cheese steaks and will fit for nothing not alone fighting the enemy.”

They will be holding the rifle between the thumb, the index and the middle fingers.

Do they really think that there will not be scenes like the above?

Me and My Friend

We romanced our coffee      She was adorable

By Frank Elias Georgalis

Living in Pattaya Thailand and you are love starving man from Europe, you tend to let two things down. One is your hair and the other your guards.  A guy like me who is a novelist and I have learned to live with the characters create in my novels; I tend to be gullible swallow anything that is given to me, to add to the disaster, I am also a very trusting soul. Being here and not being the Robinson Crusoe type, I have made some good friends from different lands, but we all speak. One of the friends I have is a retired architect from Geneva Switzerland and even though he has a lot of money, he reminds of another friend that I have in America when it comes to spending money. They would both guard their smallest nickel with their last ounce of blood. My friend will remain anonymous in my little story; after all he comes from Geneva, the city of the anonymous men. He is so stingy he literally with guards his money with his life, but he is very careful not to throw away his money or his life. One day, not too long ago, he called to ask me if I know the symptoms of ptomaine poison and how long it takes to become active.  I thought for a moment and he evidently thought that I did not want to help him.

“If you ever need any information about architecture, I will gladly pass it on to you,” he said

“Thank you for volunteering. I do have in mind of build a small bridge across the little stream in my back yard. I am not asking you to build the bridge of Toko-Ri.  The bridge will only be fewer than eight feet long, you know,” I said.

“That’s okay: there is no job too big or too small for me,” he returned.

“You mean you want me to pay you?”

“Of course. I am an architect. That is what I have done back home, building bridges”

“Then you have to pay me to give you the information you asked,” I replied.

“You are not a doctor,” he said.

“Get you a doctor, then,” I said and hung up the phone.

My friend called me a moment later and said that I haven’t started the bridge yet and he is not sick, therefore, there is no need for passing any money.

There are two things in the world that there are difficult to hide: thriftiness and generosity cannot be had by the same person.

“You didn’t answer my question. What are the symptoms of ptomaine poison and how long does it take to feel the unexpected after the consumption of the maybe spoiled food.”

“Symptoms are: nausea, severe abdominal pain accompanied by diarrhea, it takes 4 to 5 hours to show up.”

“Then I will see you in six hours, I hope.”

“I don’t understand,” I said.

“Being thrifty by nature,” said my friend. “That makes me frugal which deals with economics. Some days ago I bought a package of six wings. I cannot read the expiration date because it’s written in Thai language. Being frugal, again, I don’t want to throw the wings away, so I’ve decided to cook one wing eat it and wait to see if I’ll get sick. If I’d eat all of them and they are spoiled I will get sick and probably die, but if I eat just a little I will get just a little sick.” He concluded.
The plot of my story is not to inform you of my fried’s frugality, who gives a damn, there is a lot more to it.  He and I are having morning coffee at local coffee shop and it one of his choices. It isn’t a four star or even one star coffee shop. It has wooden pick nick tables encircled by wooden benches and it is sitting next to a four star French bakery and coffee shop, but the price of coffee is two American dollars and the one with wooden benches has coffee for less than a dollar.

If our set time t6o meet for coffee is 8:30 AM my friend gets there 15 minutes earlier to be served with coffee and to pay when served, because he doesn’t want to buy me coffee, as if I wanted him  to buy coffee for me. I can write a book on my friend’s thriftiness.

Not I come to the point for writing this short story.  He and were sitting at our usual coffee shop, having our coffee and enjoying talking of the bygone days in our countries and counting our blessing for being healthy and living in a lonely man’s paradise, Pattaya, Thailand. Suddenly a beautiful young lady sat across from us and began to throw glances and showed smiles of flattery in our way.

“The young lady across from us is beautiful, if I could only build a bridge to have this king of affect on the eye, I would have been a multi millionaire,” whispered my friend, who what he lacks in social generosity is made up by his humorous conversation.

“Quit thinking like an architect all the time,” I replied, “She is a Monalisa in full body.”

In the mean time the young woman came and stood by our table and said that the day was very important to her. She came all the way from Bangkok to celebrate her 25^th birth day but the friends she had invited didn’t show up and she asked if she can sit down to take some of our time and celebrate with us. My friend, seeing that she was mostly directing her words to him, remembering that I told him when I first arrived that I had forgotten my money at home and I would like of him to loan me 500 Bahts which is about $16 he had told me that he only had enough money with him to loan me 300 bahts ($10), thinking he may had to buy the beer. He put in my hands 300, thinking that I being more generous would buy the beer.

“Let’s have some beer,” said the girl, sitting down.

Before we could say “No” because we were having coffee, she left and came back with two large glasses of beer and begged us to proceed with her celebration. Drinking some of the beer I felt funny but my friend tilted his head over and went to sleep. I didn’t pay much attention to him, because I was really flying high and I thought that was because I had some beer on empty stomach. The girl without losing much time invited me to her hotel room to continue with her celebration. I stood up and staggered into a waiting cab. The next thing I remember was 4 or 5 hotel girls were trying to wake me up, as I was sleeping in a broken down hotel room. I realized that it was 5 hours later. I checked my pockets and found out that my 300 Bahts were gone.

“She was a nice girl,” I mumbled to myself, having searched my pockets and finding that she had left me 20 Bahts, enough money for the bus to go home.

The Spirit of the American Dream

 

By Frank Elias Georgalis

News to me can very well be something that has happened and didn’t catch my eye. Most news go to sleep under a blanket of dust that old Father Time puts over them  My job is to remove the dust and bring them to life. Some of that news have been written, broadcasted and shouted to the public but for some unknown reason they went over the public’s head like water over a duck’s ass. They are consisted of deeds that are done and words that have been spoken by some famous or at least well known people.

GEORGE W. BUSH went to work with some of his flowers to tell us why he was going to war against Iraq. One of the reasons he gave was that Saddam Hussein had threatened his DADDY. I remember he concluded his speech by saying “Besides Saddam Hussein threatened my Daddy. Saddam Hussein has got to go.

George W Bush -

Saddam Hussein has got to go

He threatened to kill my DADDY

Can anyone imagine a president of the strongest country in the world, going to war with another country because the leader threatened his Daddy? Can anyone imagine a president of the world is willing to use mass destruction weapons to kill a man who threatened to kill his “Daddy”?

The way it was said, sounded as if it meant that if anybody threatens his Daddy has got to go. Somebody should have poked him in the ribs and tell him that half of the population on earth should go for the same reason Hussein had to go.

 

Dick Cheney and his followers

“HURRY! HURRY! And vote for George.”

“The Arabs are coming, the Arabs are coming ”

DICK CHENEY is next in line to be heard of.

Three days before George’s reelection, Dick sat next to his wife, in a school house meeting, told the audience that if George W. Bush is not reelected, three days after the election parts of America will be bombed. An unhealthy odor of pants being dirtied overwhelmed the auditorium. The women turned pale and ripe and ready to faint and the men hit the nitroglycerin bottles to start up their heart and all the genitors rushed to open the doors and windows for some fresh air to get in.  After all it was the Vice President of America making this prediction in public. One should expect some fear and that is exactly what Dick had in mind; to scare the hell out the people. He damned near yelled “The Arabs are coming, the Arabs are coming.”

Before that note, Dick Cheney was being interviewed on national television and was asked by the host to comment on the problem of the illegal aliens the country is having. His response was simple and to the point “We have a problem with Illegal aliens. We have about 20,000,000 illegal aliens in this country and we don’t where they and what they are doing” I said then to him out loud from my living room. Thank you Mr. Vice President, for letting our enemies knows that we have anarchy in this country and anybody can live here and do what ever he wishes without being detected.” That of course makes our country a haven for our enemies to live and plan without being noticed. Mr. Cheney, if we don’t know where they are and what they are doing how did we count them? What you are telling us is that there may be more than twenty million or a lot less. Instead of you saying, we know where they are and we do know what they are doing and if they do something wrong they get arrested and send back to their country of origin and given them the right to return back here legally. We can deport all of them but we keep in mind the symbolic Statue of Liberty which is standing there to welcome immigrants. In the meantime we must keep in mind that immigrants are welcomed, but they must have the proper documents of entry. Please Mr. Cheney, remember that this country was built by immigrants who came here in search of their dream which rightly is called the American Dream. The American Dream is the spirit to be worthy of the privilege for being allowed to live here in this country OF THE GOOD AND THE PLENTY.

Even though most of those immigrants have long departed for the next world, their spirit of the American Dream still lives on and it will continue to live and be passed down to the next generations of all the American people. You, Mr. Cheney, and your boss George W. Bush should sound as representatives of the people with the American Dream in their hearts, instead of sounding like the Old West gun slinger who killed 18 people and two of them for snoring too loud.

Andrew Carnegie and JP Morgan

Andrew Carnegie

(25 November 1835 – 11 August 1919)

John Pierpont Morgan, Sr.

(April 17, 1837 – March 31, 1913)

Andrew Carnegie was born in Scotland, November 25, 1835 and immigrated with his parents to America at the young age, His first job was a bill collector in bobbin factory then he became a telegrapher and eventually he became an industrialists and one of the wealthiest man in the world. The other wealthy man was JP Morgan born in Connecticut April 17, 1837. Started as a bank teller and became one of the worlds strongest financier.

In 1900 Andrew Carnegie and JP Morgan were the wealthiest man in the world and they always in competition with each other. Andrew Carnegie the industrialist and JP Morgan the financier, it has been said, that the two have many arguments and one was criticizing the other. In fact Andrew Carnegie made a statement one time saying to JP Morgan that:

“Those who can do and  those who can’t criticize those who do.”

In 1901 Andrew Carnegie spoke to JP Morgan of selling The Carnegie Steel Company  and several other steel and iron businesses to form the United States Steel Corporation. JP Morgan accepted to buy the company at an unbelievable of 600 million dollars in cash.

Andrew Carnegie arrived to JP Morgan’s house, which was a walking distance from his residence, to pick up the check. JP Morgan handed the check to Andrew Carnegie, who glanced at it briefly, JP Morgan asked him a question

“ Carnegie, I handed you over the check which now makes you the wealthiest man in the world; how does it feel to be the wealthiest man in the world at this point?”
