Now I'm not asking anyone who has helped me before to donate, but, if you think I'm worthy, to pass the message to those you think may be of help. I'm looking for $5000 to buy the car and to get the paperwork and insurance done. The thumbnail shows the before and after of the impact site of the accident. The front-wheel looks fine, but that is an illusion. The A-frame and axle are broken and being it's a 1999 model year the repairs would be more than the car is worth.
I sincerely thank all those that helped me out before. Your kindness and generosity have not been forgotten.
I was lying awake in my bed when the thought occurred to me that we are as far from 1984 as when George Orwell wrote Nineteen Eighty-Four.
Mr. Orwell came up with that title by reversing the last two digits of the year when he wrote the book, 1948. We have come a long way since the book was written and the year 1984. Fortunately, most of Mr. Orwell's predictions have not come true, at least in the U.S. True, there are some countries that do have a sort of Big Brother, but even China has relaxed their totalitarian rule to an extent. The only country, in my mind, that fits his model would be North Korea, but even they are finding it hard to keep to that model in this day and age.
See what happens when you can't fall back to sleep.
Cost was $18,000 and it was made in 1995. Lot rent is $475 per month. It needs a bit of cleaning but otherwise is in move-in condition. It is located just down the road from where I used to live and the new addy is 260 Marshall Mill Rd., Lot 15, Malaga, NJ. Note that this is NOT the mailing address, as I had to get a P.O. box. If you want my snail mail addy please PM me.
I should be moving into the unit in about three weeks or so.
How to make the 342.6 mile trip from South Jersey to Pittsburgh, PA and Anthrocon in 10 minutes 6 seconds In actuality the trip took me exactly 5 hours, which was surprising and the time-lapse was one frame every second. The camera used was a GoPro Hero7 Black mounted just under my rearview mirror.
The bridge I crossed, at the 45 second mark, is the Walt Whitman bridge, from Gloucester City, NJ to Philadelphia, Pa.
At 2:16p this afternoon (Saturday, May 25, 2019) my brother Karl called to tell me that his brother-in-law had found my father dead on his couch.
He had someone visiting him, but she thought he was just sleeping. That means he probably died peacefully in his sleep. He did have a pacemaker installed due to a slow heartbeat.
My dad was 86 and would've been 87 in November. And less than three weeks to Father's Day. |={
I last talked to him on Tuesday. I will be headed to Florida tomorrow morning and I have no idea of how long I'll be there.
For the second year in a row, and only the second time I've tried it I've written over 50,000 words for NaNoWriMo. This time 50,184 words, and I've got plenty of more pages to transcribe from my hand printed notebook into the computer.
For the record, it took 143 hand printed notebook pages to equal those 50,184 words.
If you want to send me mail directly, use this address: Don Miller c/o David Hill C-11 Country Club Estates 248 Harding Highway Newfield, NJ 08344-9753 This will ensure your letter/package/etc. will be sent directly to me.
I'm still looking for a more permanent place to stay, as I know I will eventually wear out my welcome here. In that vein, I have found a used mobile home for sale, relatively cheap compared to a new one. It will cost $7,500 and the lot rent will be $600. I will be able to afford the lot rent, but the home is beyond my means at this point. Rental properties (houses/apartments) are in the $1200 and up range/month, and my credit rating and eviction will be going against me landing a rental. So, with no small amount of trepidation and reluctance, I am asking for donations so I can buy the mobile home and get myself settled in less than a month or so. If you are willing and find me worthy you can send your contribution to lionking (a) snip dot net via PayPal. I know there are those out there that I owe a substantial amount of money to, because of my actions of four years ago, and I understand if you are unwilling to help at the present time.
