About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a weekly 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!

Just One More Time For The Fun Of It

Over the years,
I have told my children that it is a good idea to read about all the different religious
and political groups of the world.
That way you will have a better idea why they think the way they do.
I have read the
Quran,
Mein Kampf,
The Communist Manifesto,
and other political
and religious books to see what stirs the hearts of
Men & Women.
So,
to be fair to our outgoing
President,
I went out
and bought a copy of his book;
The Art of the Deal.
He must have foreseen his future when he wrote it because the book has
  Six Chapter Elevens!
What?????????????
 
Get it?
Because he went
Bankrupt
six times. ;)

"Tonight we honor a self-made millionaire. He started with nothing, worked hard, and made a fortune ... That man is Fred Trump, Donald's dad. That's right, for all his self-starter bullshit, he's basically Jaden Smith with a comb-over."
Seth MacFarlane

"You put up more useless hotels than an autistic kid playing Monopoly."
Lisa Lampanelli

"Donald Trump, without a doubt, you're a New York landmark. Which means it's only a matter of time before you bulldoze yourself to build some gaudy, tacky monstrosity and put your name on it."
Larry King

"And Donald, I’m not even sure if you’re aware of this, but the only difference between you and Michael Douglas from the movie Wall Street is that no one’s going to be sad when you get cancer."
Anthony Jeselnik

"Melania, you look so beautiful tonight. Give her a round of applause. You’ve been such a good sport. So gorgeous. These two are so compatible, because they both yell out Donald’s name when they climax."
Jeff Ross

OK,
one last joke about our worst
President
ever elected.
Asked what his new
Foreign Policy
would have been if he had been re-elected the orange menace said,
"If you mess with the United States, there will be my hell toupee!"
These are not my
Jokes.
They are from
of
Donald Trump
in 2011
and the last one is off one of those joke websites.

This is,
Still Believing Life Is All A Good Joke
And If You Treat It That Way,
You Will Never Stop Laughing.
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“There is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good humor.”
- Charles Dickens -


That is my story and I am sticking to it!

Before And After

This past summer,
and I cannot remember the exact date for the life of me,
I said I would put up before and after pictures of me when I got a haircut and a shave.
I do not want to be known as a liar so I am going to do that today.
I would like to say first that
COVID-19 Pandemic Lock Down
has not treated me well.
Before this all started I was a lean 225 pounds
and have ballooned to a whopping 265 lbs.
Or for anyone living outside the
United States
I was 102 kilograms
and am now a 120 kg.
This is before;
Enough with the
Santa Claus
reference.
This is after;

 There you have it.
I am aging beautifully.

This is,
Yes Those Are Two Different Doctor Who T-Shirts I Am Wearing
Jim Hauenstein
 
And,
 
“Nothing shouts out “Celebrity!” as loudly as being a biker in desperate need of a shave, a haircut and clean clothes.”
- Foster Kinn -
 
 
That is my story and I am sticking to it!

Family First

I know.
You think I haven't written on my
Blog
because I was waiting for the outcome of this past election.
You think I am going to derive pleasure from the victory of
Joe Biden
over
Donald Trump.
Well yes,
I am.
And yes I did.
There is a long way to go from here though.
All the progress we have made as a
Nation
during the last 6 decades were reversed by 4 years of bigotry.
Okay,
I could go on & on about this subject but I want to emphasize that today is,
Family Comes First.
My daughter flew in from
Philadelphia
last week.
My grandson
and my daughter will be staying until this coming
Wednesday.
I just want to ask you to be patient with me until
Thursday.
I doubt I will be able to write again until then.
Maybe you could look at some of my older
Posts
on the
Blog Archive,
buy my e-novel
read the 4 part series
Gentle Jim And Niagara Falls,
watch my
Music Videos,
the 46 episodes of
The Man From Mars,
the 8 chapters of
Why Should I Die?,
True Life Stories,
The Hauenstein Philosophy,
Poetry,
or all my original stories on
Short Stories & Flash Fiction.
I hope you keep on reading
and I will see you
Thursday.

 This is,
Telling You To Spend As Much Time As You Can With Your Family
Jim Hauenstein

And,


“There is no such thing as a "broken family." Family is family, and is not determined by marriage certificates, divorce papers, and adoption documents. Families are made in the heart. The only time family becomes null is when those ties in the heart are cut. If you cut those ties, those people are not your family. If you make those ties, those people are your family.”

Election Day 2020

 It is a big day in the
United States.
It is
Election Day.
Election Day freebies and deals 2020: Tuesday also is Sandwich Day 
In this country,
 if you don't think it is important enough to use your right to vote,
to entice you,
they offer you
Free Donuts
and a sticker that reads
 I Voted
at the polling stations!
Election Day History—The Story Behind Your 'I Voted' Sticker | Time
I know more people in this country are taking it seriously this time around
and the turnout should be the biggest in recent elections.
My question is,
Who Will You Vote For?

This is,
Predicting That If Pumpkin Face Loses
He Will Press The Button To Launch Nuclear Weapons To End The World
Jim Hauenstein

And,

“When one with honeyed words but evil mind persuades the mob, great woes befall the state.”

10 Proof or 5 Percent ABV

Hey, did you hear that Apple, the computer company, wants to develop their own autonomous cars? They have a huge problem to overcome. They are having trouble loading Windows!

I can't wait to see Saint Peter at the Pearly Gates in Heaven. Once he gives me the gate code, it will be the first time I live in a gated community!

If you have been reading this Blog over the years, you know that I was a musician for many years. And after all these years I still get recognized once in awhile. It is at Family Reunions, but I still get recognized!

The other day, I went to one of those fancy discounted Oriental massage parlors, hoping to get a "Happy Ending." It turned out to be self-serve!
 
When I first met my wife, she used to call me "The Drunken Master" because of all the beer I drank. When I look back now and think about all the money I spent on beer over the years, if I had that money today, think of all the beer I could buy!

  This is
Hoping You Had A Safe Halloween
TwoBuckHowie

And
“Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.”

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
