MARK PICHLER

I AM A BORN & RAISED (B & R) CLEVELANDER.

AND HAVE LIVED HERE FOR ALMOST ALL OF MY 58 YRS..

I HAVE LIVED IN AREAS AROUND THE CITY AS WELL.

TREMONT, KEYSTONE, CUDELL.

I HAVE SEEN THIS CITY GO FROM "A CITY ON THE MOVE"! TO A GHOSTOWN USA.

ALSO! SPENT SOME TIME IN NAUGATUCK, CT..

I LOVE TO BLOG FOR BOTH FUN AND PROFIT.

AND I'M ALSO A WRITER AS WELL!

I HAVE DONE SECURITY WORK.

I AM NOT ONE FOR THIS "POLITICAL CORRECTNESS"!

THERE ARE WAYS TO GO AROUND IT!

AND STILL GET YOUR POINT ACROSS.

THE REAL MEANING OF POLITICAL CORRECTNESS MEANS "TOW THE LINE IN WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT THE LEADER AND S/HE'S ADMINISTRATION"!

I LOVE READING JUST ABOUT ANYTHING/EVERYTHING I CAN GET MY HANDS ON!

THERE ARE NOT TOO MANY THINGS I DO NOT LIKE!

I BELIEVE THAT WHEN IT COMES TO RAISING KIDS!

WE THE PARENTS SHOULD RAISE THEM AND GIVE THEM THE LIFE THAT WE DID NOT HAVE WHEN WE WERE GROWING UP!

I'M NOT ONE FOR PUTTING DOWN PEOPLE WHO WORK AT FAST FOOD PLACES! AFTER ALL I WORKED AT A FAST FOOD PLACE MYSELF!

BUT! NOT TO AS THOSE WHO MAKE IT THEIR SOLE METHOD OF INCOME.

GRANTED! WE ARE LIVING IN A "SOFT ECONOMY"!

BUT! THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT ONE SHOULD JUST TAKE WHATEVER COMES ALONG AND BE HAPPY WITH IT!

THAT! IS SETTLING FOR LESS THAN ONE SHOULD! THERE ARE OTHER THINGS ONE CAN DO.

BUT! IT IS BECAUSE OF WHAT OUR PARENTS HAD THINKING THAT WE SHOULD HAVE THE SAME AS WELL.

SO FAR FROM THE TRUTH!!!!!

HOW DOES THE OLD SAYING GO?

"ALWAYS BE A JACK OF ALL TRADES!" "AND A MASTER OF NONE"!

IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE THIS "DO FOR ME"!

MENTALITY ABOUT THEM.

THIS! IS NOT A BLOCK PARTY!

MAKE IT!
