G'day Everyone.
What am I shocked today of? Well, let me start off the bat. First of all, there's a bakery store in Easton, PA that has stood it's ground on moral rights and I'm proud of them. Who in G-d's name would a set of parents name their kid Adolph Hitler Campbell? The name "Adolph Hitler", is the most heinous name in all of history. It's insanity that some parents would give name to that child. What happen when the child grows up? Will he be mocked with it? Threatened? Beaten up? Possible killed? I hope for the very sake of the child that the name should be changed. Who's fault for allowing the name? The hospital and the county vital stastictics office. It's a shame that they allowed this name to happen. Never again should another Adolph Hitler come again, ever!
Meanwhile, President Bush has decided to help the automakers!! It was shocking to hear that he's decided to bail them out. Bush has now become the only lame duck President of USA that has opened the dam of money and poured it out into risky investments. For the big 3 and UAW, they're dancing as it's a Christmas miracle. But for the GOP, it's full of anger. What happens next year when Obama takes office formally? I would believe is his first act is to block that dam and then require people who got the bail out money to pay it back. Other wise, Obama is going to have little choice but to shut the gov't down for a while to save money or find other ways to make money to repay for the lost money. The nation is broke as it is! Thanks to PRESIDENT BUSH!! THE WORST REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT IN HISTORY!
So here is my suggestion to my readers. Print a picture of President George Bush from the 'net. Then post it on a wall. take a soft slipper shoes. As many times as you want, throw the slippers at the picture of President Bush! Do this EVERY DAY. On January 20th, Toss the slippers at Bush picture at every chance you get until that helicopter leaves the white house and carries him away into history. From this point in our lives, Bush will no longer be a GOP Political power house. He knows it. I hope Bush hangs his head in shame from January 20th on. He'll be thinking a lot of his own future after this. He has no choice now.
Presently, I'm still in shock of my friend. He's in a nursing home for rehabilitation. Why am I in shock? Because the nursing home staff WON'T provide interpreters for him. I'm like *WHAT*? WHY? Then I was told that it had to do with the nursing home trying to make a PROFIT! I'm like "Haven't these people heard of the *ADA* law?". Believe or not, I was told " WTF is an ADA LAW?" (as it was relayed to me about what's happening to my friend). I'm going "My gosh, this place will be prime for a lawsuit". Why the hospital recommended this place, I won't know. But one thing is for sure. A hospital that treats deaf patients ought to be equally sure that a nursing home rehabilitation equally treats deaf patients too. Because this is important in the recovery process. If my friend fails to recover, I'll first blame the nursing home and then the hospital staff in their suggestions.
As I said before in my previous post :
http://thedeafsherlock.blogspot.com/2008/12/interpreters-in-hospitals-on-mandatory.html
it also applies to nursing homes as well.
Presently, we're trying to find interpreters who will donate their time to interpret for my friend in the rehab. (pls note, I'm not naming the nursing home until later. But rest assured, it's in the DC area. I'm in hopes the NAD will get involved.).
Update: While I've contacted the NAD for help, I found this info about the *ADA LAW* of what requires for Hospitals and Nursing homes to do. So here is the link and READ!!! : http://www.nad.org/site/pp.asp?c=foINKQMBF&b=137783
Very important for anyone to read!
Final shock of the post? ahh, it's snowing here. Big one. The first I've seen the years that I've lived at my present home. Blizzard time. Wow. Remind me of how Winter 1977 was. Winter hasn't changed much. Unless you've been in it. Well, if the snow sticks around till Christmas, then a white Christmas is promised. It's 6 days to Christmas, 1 week to WHITE SALE DAY!
till later, Semper FI and stay warm!

Only one thing, I don't think President Bush wanted to play Mr. Scrooge to the 3 Auto Company. Even if those company did close for a Month, I bet Barack Obama will bail out the 3 Auto Companies because he wants peoplt to have jobs. One of the condition for the money from the White House is that the union has to take a reducing in pay. So they have to clean up their acts or else they will have to pay back the money sooner than later.
