About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

Sibling Rivalry

Again,
I have been away too long from writing on this
Blog.
I can complain all day long about my disabilities,
but the only thing that will do for some of you,
is make you feel sorry for me.
Everyone else,
including myself,
will say it's just another excuse.
Many people have fought through their disabilities to do great things in this world,
and I can only hope that someday I will do something great too!
But,
this is not the first time I have whined about something on this
Blog.
Matter-Of-Fact,
it seems I do it quite often.
Here is a
Post
from

My younger sister, who will remain nameless to protect the innocent, visited this
Blog
the other day.

Hallelujah, a member of my immediate family actually took the time to give me a little support.

Do I sound bitter here? I hope not.

Well, I'm not giving my family enough credit.

My
Sister and
Brother are just now entering the home stretch as far as raising a family goes.

I was the lucky one out of the bunch who was able to retire at the ripe old age of fifty-three.

(Ha-Ha)

I would like to thank my sister, for taking the time out of her busy schedule, she's a teacher don't you know, to visit my
Blog
and actually comment on it.

Oh, she didn't comment on the
Blog
itself.

No, she had to send me a separate email to tell me what she thought.

What a little trooper!

I hope you have enjoyed this episode of "Who Will Read My Blog?"

Today Sponsor is, Sibling Rivalry.

The brand we all know and love.
The picture,
from left to right,
is of my
Sister,
my
Father,
and my
Brother.
This is, Going To Force My Siblings To Buy My Next Book - No More Freebees,
 Jim Hauenstein,

And,


"Many toxic parents compare one sibling unfavorably with another to make the target child feel that he's not doing enough to gain parental affection. This motivates the child to do whatever the parents want in order to regain their favor. This divide-and-conquer technique is often unleashed against children who become a little too independent, threatening the balance of the family system.”
- Susan Forward, -
(Oh, whatever!)



That is my story and I am sticking to it!

    Hi Jim I liked reading this post about sibling rivalry! Did you know the CIA look at birth order to study world leaders? It helps them with important details of how might a leader retaliate if compelled to by other countries based on birth order...anyways good seeing you! You do look great btw! :)
