It's not really all that bad. I've lost the need to have any kind of certainty in this life.. the consequence of half-baked religious answers seems worse than just enjoying the questions..

maybe he had some kind of "experience" when he was an adolescent.. who knows..

what's interesting.. of the three, rosie ends up with da presidency.. a life provided by boot licking martindale wanabes.. the "provider" ends up with a life of opulence.. and donna ends up living in a dump (founders hall).

Just seems.. somebody would have to be seriously disturbed, to name their own offspring after him..

I think da wierwille *heritage* should be put in a public place where it may be urinated on profusely, and frequently. Come to think of it, it has.

considering they are in a bar.. or so it looks, could it be all three are drunk as skunks in that picture? what is so weird.. they look so "chummy".. and the middle one was getting porked by the one on the left's husband.. one big, happy family..

I dunno.. feel sorry for them in a way. It would be kinda like having Capone as an ancestor.. Maybe there is some novelty to being capone's descendant.. but I don't see them out running the streets with tommy guns, trying to resurrect the old man's calling or something..

for those of you that were in the corps: did they have a class or training or something on "how to live in something way over one's income level, cheap.."? The branch guy before them ran the same scam.. babysat the nicest house you could find on the bay. Stretch of sandy beach to walk on.. VERY expensive car. And.. he washed windows for a living..

Interesting.. living on wic and other government subsidies.. sponging off of any talent the locals have (wiring their houses, babysitting.. etc. etc.. tilling the garden, digging weeds.. cleaning) they always had the FINEST audio visual equipment for classes, I provided that. And nice chairs, no more funeral home knockoffs.. a lecturn (the branch pooled and bought the chairs and lecturn).. what a scam.. they could make living in below poverty level *wages* look like they were rolling in money.. where the furniture came from.. who knows. How they were able to babysit a house for over a year for rent CHEAP.. with that many kids, people running in and out of the house with the wear and tear.. that's the hard part to figure. When da *mrs* had health problems.. it wasn't da way, it was medicaid that paid the bill.. I'd rewrite the fifth corpse "principle". To go forth as leeches and parasites, consuming areas of concern, interest and not need..

I think da way was salting the mine here.. didn't work. People saw through them like water..

The next element to add to the equation: the city was (still is in many ways) RICH. A nice big, tasty nut to be cracked.. in a lot of ways unaffected by economic woe..

and the character could not afford to have the phone company come in, and sort out a few wires.. not that I mind helping out someone who needs it.. but somehow, all this does not quite add up..

Heh.. Under any other circumstances.. people tend to take account of a few facts.. a house, that should rent for at a minimum, 2,000 a month utilities. a multiplicity of kids activities, for over a half-dozen kids.. very nice car. a WALL full of videos, games, etc. etc.. the finest furniture.. and.. no income? Then minimal income? and.. no references. At least locally..

That's it! A contradiction of terms.. It was all a facade.. the nice house. The little vineyard in the back.. the appearance of prosperity.. but how did they get into the house? I mean.. no credit, no job, no.. anything.. did da way write a promissory note or something? Is that the standard procedure in this kind of situation? The last time I filled out paperwork to just RENT a stinking hole.. the renters checked practically everything except for my prostrate..

hmm.. come to think of it..

he couldn't afford to have a telephone company technician install his business line. I was the one who sorted out ancient phone wiring in a 50 + year old house to find a clear line to the office.. and no, didn't charge a single dime. the wife couldn't figure out why I was not simultaneously heroically hefting pool tables and the like.. I have names for this character.. Unfortunately, they are rather.. whats the word.. well, I'm sure the description would not pass the cuss checker here..

A couple, unemployed, with 5-7 children move into an area. They are "corpse".. the best of da best.. unemployed, no local references.. the *husband* will not be able to become gainfully employed. He washes windows for a *living*.. There are too many "hows" unanswered here. In my mind anyway.. How are they able to assume occupancy in a house, which is waiting to be sold.. for MINIMAL rent. That is.. almost nothing.. the children are well fed.. one appears *especially* so.. they can afford expensive medical treatment for the wife with certain *problems*.. He works.. I guess. No health benefits by the job window cleaning.. was it "Gawd"? I don't think so.. what I'd like to know: who put their rear end on the line for them to begin with? The last time I applied to legitimately RENT a house.. there were credit checks, etc., etc.. maybe somebody could explain this.. they hardly had "credit" to check..

only in way world, it seems, that this nonsense makes perfect sense.. have to be possessed to think otherwise I guess..

The last dream, it was me who gave them nightmares.. haven't had one since..

Bill Gates.. ha.. instead.. it was a moron who ended up pushing packages around on a cart for a living.. Only in way world, must this make sense..

Oh yeah. They must be living on "needs" basis somewhere.. With this opulence, you'd think she'd slept with Bill Gates or something..

maybe they built it to look like da corpse chalet to remind them of the ms's good times.. You just know that innies are reading this.. I wonder what kind of spin they can put to THIS.. what luxury.. myself, I'd be satisfied just with clear ownership of a little shack in the woods somewhere..

I dunno.. I'd chalk it up to "your ABS at work.." ya know, people living on a part time mcdonald's salary likely helped pay for this..

I go with my first guess.. but there are other possibilities. 1. Botox. Very likely. In rosie's case, the excess skin doesn't seem to have straightened out.. it just slid further down into what looks like a goiter.. 2. Menopause. Nothing like rosie and the donster getting "hormonal" or something.. 3. living off da way gravy train. Money fer nuttin, chicks fer free.. 4. Not aging "gracefully". Consider above comments.. enough guesses, and I'm sure I'll eventually get it..
