June 28th 2007---Title -- Life, Love and happiness
Good day all.
Robbie here, Not sure I should be blogging today as I am not 100% in the head. Depressed ? Maybe, Suicidal, you bet. Bored, Totally, out of of what's left of my mind.
What does one do with this thing called life. Live it to the full ? Ya, doing what exactly?, Can anyone inform me. I reckon it all boils down to having babies, without theses little noise boxes to take up a minimum of 18 years of your life you have very little else to do.
The average Joe (single) soap works 8 hours a day, travels for 1 to 4 hours to and from work, cooks a dinner from a packet from the freezer and then veggies in front of the TV or computer until bed time and repeats this five of the seven days in a week. Friday starts the weekend so the average Joe tends to go to the pub with their work mates and get pissed.
Weekends - Saturday - they either have a sleep in or get up early and go visit there mother or go shopping to refill the freezer with another load of crap. Then watch football on TV until it's again time for the pub or nightclub.
Sunday - Can be different, If they are a religious mass going type, they get up and go say a few prayers to Dog himself and hope he shows them the way. To where I aint sure but every Sunday they wish for the same thing, but never get a reply.
An average married Joe, does the same things as an unmarried Joe but gets to play a little with their noise boxes after a hard days work for an hour or two before bedtime.
Otherwise there lives are same, same.
Old people
I find old people very troublesome, most loose there marbles and babble on about all sorts of shit. I know a brother and sister who are stuck looking after their mother and father, Mother is 93 and father is 95 and are both totally f....., they need constant attention and even cannot go to the toilet on their own, Their father has to wear nappies as he is incontinent and the mother is not much better, it's nappies for her any day now as well.
Another guy , our very own Kenny boy , His mother is 87 and cannot walk even a few steps without falling down.
We just received this mail from him today.
mum had another fall earlier in the week and is not well enough for me to leave her yet,my sisters coming down sometime next week ,let you know more when I know
definitely when she's coming,till then Ken.
Another fall, fall number 389 in the last few months. She spends most of her time on the floor and he spends most of his life either looking after his mother or traveling to and from looking after her. He drives from Amsterdam to the south of France on average once every month.
But he really loves her. Not sure why. Guess I am just a cold blooded retard without feelings.
Drugs. (Illegal ones)
"The war on drugs" How many times have you heard politicians utter theses words.
Reality is totally different. The two countries which make up 80 or more percent of the worlds production of cocaine and heroin are Afghanistan and Columbia. two of the poorest counties in the entire world.
A simple way to solve the supply of drugs.
Why not just ask the growers /farmers of the drugs "How Much You Make From Your Crop" and whatever the figure is , double it and say "You now grow , beans, carrots whatever. problem solved.
or do what America does best and launch a small nuclear device and make sure nothing ever grows on the land again.
Again problem solved.
Making all drugs legal is the best solution to this problem. History shows us by banning anything it only makes the problem worse not better. From drink to books to films, people will always find a way of getting banned items.
Take Netherlands as an example because cannabis is available to buy in coffeeshops the take up of harder drugs is much less and all other countries.
Needle exchanges are everywhere for the heroin addicts and treatment is available for anyone you wishes to give up.
America is the worst of all , it wastes billions of tax payers $$$$$ every year fighting the "war on Drugs" a war the government and police and anyone with any sense knows it can never be won yet we have police chase and jail people for smoking a joint .
The question is do world governments really want to stop the supply of drugs?
I do not think so. Not when you see the CIA running drugs themselves and using the profits to finance their own little private wars against countries like Cuba and Venezuela as well as many others.

News from Amsterdam
Well today Thursday 28th the stopped. After several weeks of non stop rain, today the clouds parted and Mr Sunshine made a rare appearance but stopped around all day. All the sun worshipers were out in force and all the Amsterdam terrace cafes were full to bursting point. I did not find it that warm, it's only 17C and the wind is blowing so I find it quite cold,
Thursday is a porridge day so Mothership cooked up a large pot of porridge for three, Emmett, Myself and herself and we all eat it until there was none left. Jolly good stuff, organic porridge.
Giuseppe is working next door in Gusto's restaurant tonight (5pm to 1am) and Brendan is off to see his favourite band Porcupine three.
Porcupine Three for some reason happen to play the Netherlands several times a year and Brendan follows them about and as they are his favourite band he wants everyone else to share there music so as usual he goes and buys five tickets, He used to buy six but even he cannot find six people brave enough to take in a two hour P.T concert
This time around they are for himself , three friends and girlfriend Caroline (aka ball of fluff). But as usual all four have backed out for one reason or another so he has four spare tickets just like every other time. He never learns.
Today was spent ringing all sorts of low life's, misfits and other odd balls to try and persuade at least four of them into going to see his favourite band.
I was listening to him on the phone, Giving it the hard sell and loosing the sale in most cases. Several replies he received were
" Who"
"Porcupine who"
"I'm washing me hair"
"I'm washing her hair"
" I told you after the last time NEVER AGAIN"
"Those's noise makers"
"Not even if you had the royal box"
"Back stage passes me ass, you said that last time"
"Them again, give me a break"
"You are joking" "Are they back again"
"Sorry bud" She won't let me go"
"Not even if you paid me"
"Not on your Nellie"
In the end he settled for a local bar man Johnny, Perry the cleaner and Chris (Hardy of Laurel and Hardy) aka Escape handy man and last but not least Boris an X bar man now full time student. All five have just set off to the Milky Way venue here in Amsterdam he be subjected to two wonderful hours of entertainment - not
Dog help them!.
Left in charge is Emmett but Mothership is hovering overhead in her apartment, with at least one of her eyes on the ball.
They are both off to the gym at 8.30 but are still waiting for a guest to arrive. arrival time 6pm and still no show. Now 7.40pm. if guest does not show then they cannot go to the gym and that means Emmett will be in office all night annoying me about this, that and the other, mostly the other.
More Later after sleep
