Head to Toe Beauty


Head to Toe Beauty

 

Just as I remembered to keep around a winter jacket for when it’s cold outside in April like a check unclaimed & without knowing her name it was grabbed and signed & paid at the bar where some Goa cat was playing surf style Buddha riffs on his blue Hawaiian lap steel guitar

And, where I didn’t want to write something that would be too long and within that insincere, surf style Buddha cat from Goa looked at the crowd and spoke as if he was looking at a mirror out came a lion of a song he called March and I then realized I began surfing on the web in an office after college I shared with two of my sisters who neatly packed pistols for Italian men and it was there while surfing I hit a few good highs and caught some peaks of lifestyle Supremes real head to toe beauty in an everyday media medium I knew nothing about but liked it anyway so when it came time to check on the key to my heart I nearly fell apart as it fell to the floor  behind the vestibule which sat in front of a guarded door where I kept my one & only necklace

It seemed just like my favorite pair of jeans I saw in an online magazine I was now torn & frayed after this head to toe beauty grabbed my attention and put my thoughts back in detention where they drifted in ripples that brought those sands of tides from foreign exotic lands in front of my eyes where I read and liked her recipe for curry Tai chicken with cashews and peanuts with some added drops of a curried coconut milk and all this tasted as she described fine silks which I knew before it rained we’d have to cover up all the same need for a winter coat in April and maybe these rains would wash our souls clean in a spring rebirth & plenty of flowers in May

May I accompany your eyes while they read these lines in your own narrative & funny voice that bounce around the chambers of your mind strategically hitting corners & so mine echoes in the third eye which now commands the expression on your face like an unopposed question in the center of a long hallway with luxuriant chairs and candelabras reflected in the tall mirror

How to Get High from Social Media

This occurred via FaceBook today. .. #DigIt



so i have to share this as Jennifer Jane Arden (who has gorgeous eyes = like the ones Michelangelo must have been referring to when he stated "the eyes are the windows of one's soul") replied that it was the deepest comment anyone has ever left her: "everbody needs balance. as a poet i feel like i need to have an everyday job of an everyday person in order to have a lot of content + keep grounded but also as an everyday person with an everyday job i need to write poetry & need to know i am a real poet" --- John Alan Conte Jr

Inconsequential Evidence

Inconsequential Evidence
 
On the way to see my landlord
I had a big wad of bills w/ a rubberband
Walkin’ with swagger of a Monaco hustler
She didn’t like me anyway so I got fresh w/ her
Told her wished we could trade places for a day
So she could feel what a drag it is to see her on anyday
What I didn’t know was how close she was to her cop
He had a haircut that looked like it was kinda angry
At no particular someone and he didn’t avoid his gun
All we knew. If he got you, what his idea -would be of fun
So right before I was all ready to reach my landlord’s door
Her fiancée cop pulled my shoulders back and yelled “stop!”
It’s evident you look suspicious right now there son so
What you’re gonna do for me?! empty your pockets, hit the floor
He took my cash and then bashed my ass with his baton
Told me it was a magic wand and in a flash there’d be more in jail
So what he didn’t quite yet realize was that a friend of mine in NYC
Had a friend that was the D.A. in Phili. And he knew who in D.C.
You see the cop was planting evidence for hope of a promotion
In a nice comfy and safe location where he could take his new fiancée
Well I made bail and a lot of people were ugly about how I was jailed
And it made a big difference and it was a big deal because it was evident
That he was dealing in pretty little hippie boys & inconsequential evidence

a Song for Ashley Judd's run for the Senate (Democrat - Kentucky)



Now they may be used to raisin’ Phillies in Kentucky

The brown coats look so pretty in the blue grass

And it may have Tennessee feeling a little unlucky

But, man, she’s got more than just a fine little ass

What’s as pure and straight as Maker’s Mark

If you don’t wanna shoot fowl in the dark

Then you need to take this shot without a chase

And, in this upcoming Senate race, if you don’t wanna a dud

Vote for Judd in Kentucky

Vote for Judd from Tennessee

Vote for Judd she’s no limousine liberal – anymore than Barack

Vote for Judd in Kentucky

Though Tennessee’s not as lucky - least you’ll be off your back

And back to work in a job where it’ll be good to be seen

Shooting pool at the local bar'n'grill – buying friends rounds

You’ll be drinking fine Maker’s Mark – Judd she’ll light a spark

And you’ll have something more green than the blue grass

I’m looking forward to seeing that Hollywood ass in the senate    

Yeah, there’s enough balls left on the table from the last guy

Vote for Judd in Kentucky

Vote for Judd from Tennessee

Vote for Judd she’s no limousine liberal – anymore than Barack

Vote for Judd in Kentucky

Vote for Judd in Kentucky

Vote for Judd from Tennessee

Vote for Judd she’s no limousine liberal – anymore than Barack

Vote for Judd

Vote for Judd

Vote for Judd

The pleasure of Ms Blanchard: Alana Blanchard is famous.


“Alana, just show people you can surf, for once. It doesn’t matter if you win or lose.” I was just like, “ok, I’ll just catch waves.” It’s cool, I’m really happy.


 
It feels like your fame’s tripled in the last year. I don’t know what it is. I try to not pay attention to it all, I guess. I just try to be myself and be happy. But I guess just within the last couple of years there’s been Instagram and so much social media, that’s it’s so easy if you have that little niche. It just builds and builds and it’s an easy way for people to see things. It’s so powerful. I don’t know why people are drawn to me but it’s cool, I guess.

Devil Gonna Swallow You Whole --- How to deal with the devil = #new poem by John A. Conte` Jr. (Giovanni French & the new everyday media)

a man is presumed dead after being swallowed by the earth three days ago. Hunt: Officials use ground penetrating sonar to map the subsurface around the home to determine the extent of the danger. Crews will take this information and create a plan of action to recover Jeff Bush

Devil Gonna Swallow You Whole --- How to deal with the devil

What has more energy the city lights or your soul

What has more energy the city lights or your soul

Are there more city lights or city of good souls

The devil will haunt you – haunt you in the night

Devil gonna hunt you down and gonna haunt you tonite

When he come for you - what you gonna do to make it right

The crow flies low – gonna chase you in flight

The crow fly low – chase you in flight

Crow fly low and chase you round in flight

You wanna fly high – better find somethin’ right

Wanna be flyin’ high – find somethin’ treat you right

Gonna be flyin’ high – on somethin’ good tonight

Don’t ask the devil – even though he gettin’ by

Don’t ask the devil – though you see him getting’ by

Ask the devil – still don’t mean you be flyin’ high

Old devil come gonna swallow you up whole

Old devil come gonna swallow you up whole

The ground gonna open up and swallow you whole

Safe in bed - but you forget to pray for your soul

Sleep in bed – but didn’t pray for your soul

Sleep in bed – devil open the ground - swallow you whole

I got my sympathy for the devil so I know he gonna leave me alone

Perfect Little Hapiness

 

Yes

I’m glad you empathize – with our situation

They have forgot about me – In this open nation

Me, I’ve been writing words – for a howling generation

Surprised with an open invitation – to start its own fire

(we just needed spark – we found stumbling thru the dark)

And OK you’re perfect – such a little perfect

Don’t forget a handkerchief – for the 1st time you feel happiness

(so used to cryin’ – ah, so down & feeling untrue & too uncool for blue)

A rearrival of myself taught me to see the present as a present & not a rival

 To see the open road as someone dead but so grateful as a means of survival

Those lessons are only of value if you learn and let them alone in the past

And driving with the winnings closer to my vest in a New Mexico ---

No need to tell us which way to go – we got another invitation for the situation

To use a new equation to formulate the value of a rediscovered open nation

With the words of a howling generation at our backs supporting a re-evaluation

And the new round of investments from the right backers of a sustainable evolution  

Where we’re the same stars of the revolution covered in a new everyday media

You can see it all again & again – just crack an old code for a fresh new start - then hit replay

And OK you’re perfect – such a little perfect

Don’t forget a handkerchief – for the 1st time you feel happiness

(so used to cryin’ – ah, so down & feeling untrue & too uncool for blue)

Well, blues something we’re all tangled up in – no one’s gonna just give it you

Or even if they do it’s up to you to blow it back open again when the bubble pops

And no one seems to have your back – because it’s all waiting for you to come around

Down to the main part of town where they used to execute those who clowned around

And OK you’re perfect – such a little perfect

Don’t forget a handkerchief – for the 1st time you feel happiness - when you kick them down

We got our open invitations for a new situation – where I don’t have to see you – ever again

And I’m so happy

Such a perfect little happy

I know I don’t have to see you (ever again)

Ever again

Never again

Never again.

2, 2, 3, 4 rhythm & blues --- go head & count it out – but it’s not for sale,

No,
not for you.

Mutilated Teddy Bear


Mutilated Teddy Bear (1st draft: unedited)

At the knock on the front door they were alarmed yet it was nothing more than that startling of an unexpected knock. They were fairly quiet and kept to themselves although they lived on a busy street littered with cars and kids. However, the routine emotions one feels while answering a knock at the door soon dissipated and was replaced with a hot steel sweat that seemingly started in the pit of their stomachs and moved to the back on their throats as they greeted two police officers at the front door.

“Mr. & Mrs. Krugglick?” the officer began and with a nod from the couple he proceeded, “may we come in?”

The tiny kitchen table showed no signs of a troubled home. It was quite non descript and looked like several kitchen tables on that street, in the neighborhood of the city of Boston, Massachusetts.

They missed the signs. No doubt about it. They missed the signs. Were they to blame for it?

While the white glove dust tests were conducted in the household every Saturday morning cleaning-up the evidence that time indeed past and dust settled with its mixture of skin particles, mites, dirt & grime for the everyday inside & outside did they miss the real focus and meaning behind the horrible violent crimes the officers blatantly stated their 25 year old son committed? All those victims. And the poor grieving families & friends!

Mrs. Krugglick dismissed the incessant teasing her son gave the family pets as just a normal aggressiveness that boys did – even when there were signs of wounds from abuse and an uneasy wincing from rooms when he was in them with the animals. For it was only a recent phenomenon to let animals in the house to begin with and may not have even occurred if Mr. Krugglick did not take heed to the advice of a Mason on the street that explained how his connections told him that Mr. Krugglick would probably have to face some fines associated with animal & pet abuse and neglect if he didn’t make certain the animals were more properly looked after and not roaming free day and night – or the dogs just chained in the backyard in all weather barking frantically at times as if to fend off attacks and also from apparent lack of fresh food and water. Cambridge was shedding its working class image for a more white collar “tech” friendly environment. The Krugglicks like many other families were caught in the middle of this shuffle – which might explain the bullying their son received from both sides of the track – with his inadequacies of not being cool, or tough enough for one side and not good-enough & status confirmed by the other.

At any rate, while they searched the bedroom with the officers both Mr. & Mrs. Krugglick shed hot tears of shame and misfortune and guilt as Mrs. Krugglick grasped at, held, and squeezed  the mutilated teddy bear the officers pulled out of the closet and from the childhood of the mass killer.

Youngest American Woman Billionaire Found With In-N-Out


Lynsi L. Torres is associated with several companies, including Flying Dutchman Racing, Inc., In-N-Out Burgers and In-N-Out Burgers Foundation.
By Seth Lubove - Feb 4, 2013 12:00 AM ET

Lunchtime at the flagship In-N-Out Burger restaurant in Baldwin Park, California, is a study in efficiency. As the order line swells, smiling workers swoop in to operate empty cash registers. Another staffer cleans tables, asking customers if they’re enjoying their hamburger. Outside, a woman armed with a hand-held ordering machine speeds up the drive-through line.

Such service has helped In-N-Out create a rabid fan base -- and make Lynsi Torres, the chain’s 30-year-old owner and president, one of the youngest female billionaires on Earth. New store openings often resemble product releases from Apple Inc. (AAPL), with customers lined up hours in advance. City officials plead with the Irvine, California-based company to open restaurants in their municipalities.
 “They have done a fantastic job of building and maintaining a kind of cult following,” said Bob Goldin, executive vice president of Chicago-based food industry research firm Technomic Inc. “Someone would love to buy them.”

That someone includes billionaire investor Warren Buffett, who told a group of visiting business students in 2005 that he’d like to own the chain, according to an account of the meeting on the UCLA Anderson School of Management website.

The thrice-married Torres has watched her family expand In- N-Out from a single drive-through hamburger stand founded in 1948 in Baldwin Park by her grandparents, Harry and Esther Snyder, into a fast-food empire worth more than $1 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

Biblical Citations

Famous for its Double-Double cheeseburgers, fresh ingredients and discreet biblical citations on its cups and food wrappers, In-N-Out has almost 280 units in five states. The closely held company had sales of about $625 million in 2012, after applying a five-year compound annual growth rate of 4.6 percent to industry trade magazine Nation’s Restaurant News’s 2011 sales estimate of $596 million.

In-N-Out is valued at about $1.1 billion, according to the Bloomberg ranking, based on the average price-to-earnings, enterprise value-to-sales and enterprise value-to-earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization multiples of five publicly traded peers: Yum! Brands Inc. (YUM), Jack in the Box Inc., Wendy’s Co. (WEN), Sonic Corp. (SONC) and McDonald’s Corp. (MCD) Enterprise value is defined as market capitalization plus total debt minus cash.

One private equity executive who invests in the food and restaurant industry said the operation could be valued at more than $2 billion, based on its productivity per unit, profitability and potential for expansion. The person asked not to be identified because he is not authorized to speak about his company’s potential investments.

Plane Crash

“In-N-Out Burger is a private company and this valuation of the company is nothing more than speculation based on estimates from people with no knowledge of In-N-Out’s financials, which are and always have been private,” Carl Van Fleet, the company’s vice president of planning and development, said in an e-mailed statement.

Torres, who has never appeared on an international wealth ranking and declined to comment for this article, came to control In-N-Out after several family deaths. When her grandfather Harry died in 1976, his second son, Rich, took over as company president and expanded the chain to 93 restaurants from 18.

Torres’s father, Harry Guy Snyder, became chief executive following Rich’s 1993 death in a plane crash at age 41. The chain expanded to 140 locations under Guy, who inherited his father’s passion for drag racing.
