Florida
So far, it has been really great. I don't miss the cold and snow at all. I've taken at least one bike ride every day and some days I took 2 rides.
It took me a little over 30 years to achieve my goal of having a winter getaway in Florida and I'm so happy that I finally have it.
I used to feel like a prisoner in my own house during the winters in New Jersey, but thankfully I don't have to deal with that anymore.

I'll mainly be doing videos of Football, Basketball, and Baseball cards, but 1 or 2 Hockey cards might find there way into the mix.
For most of the videos there will be a little story about why I really love the card or how I got it, but for some I just can't put my finger on it.
I'm planning on uploading one video per week, but I may do it more often sometimes.
Anyway, I thought some of my readers might enjoy watching so I figured I'd post about it here.
Thanks for reading this post and hopefully watching the videos, as well.

Is the world becoming less handicapped accessible?
I'm not sure really, but either way it is disturbing.
What is disturbing?
1. Disappearing handicapped accessible parking spaces.
2. Disappearing ramps onto curbs
In the past year my local mall has actually REMOVED handicapped accessible spaces from their parking lot. There weren't enough spaces to begin with and now they took some away.
WTH?
At a strip mall near my house, the parking situation hasn't changed, but two ramps to the sidewalk have been removed.
Again, wth?
I hope this isn't some new trend of making the world less accessible, but I fear that it might be just that.

Greens, greens and nothing but greens:
Asparagus and watercress and
Fiddleferns and lettuce-!
He said, "All right,"
But it wasn't, quite,
'Cause I caught him in the autumn
In my garden one night!
He was robbing me,
Raping me,
Rooting through my rutabaga,
Raiding my arugula and
Ripping up my rampion
(My champion! My favorite!)-
I should have laid a spell on him
Right there,
Could have changed him into stone
Or a dog or a chair...
But I let him have the rampion-
I'd lots to spare.
In return, however,
I said, "Fair is fair:
You can let me have the baby
That your wife will bear.
And we'll call it square."
[BAKER]
I had a brother?
[WITCH]
No. But you had a sister.
[NARRATOR]
But the witch refused to tell him anymore of his sister.
Not even that her name was Rapunzel.
[WITCH]
I though I had been more than reasonable.
But how was I to know what your father
had also hidden in his pocket?!
[BAKER]
What?
[WITCH]
Beans.
[BAKER & WIFE]
Beans?
[WITCH]
The special beans.
I let him go,
I didn't know
He'd stolen my beans!
I was watching him crawl,
Back over the wall-!
Then bang! Crash!
And the lightning flash!
And- well, that's another story,
Never mind-
Anyway, at last
The big day came,
And I made my claim.
"Oh, don't take away the baby,"
They shrieked and screeched,
But I did,
And I hid her
Where she'll never be reached.
And your father cried,
And your mother died
When for extra measure-
I admit it was a pleasure-
I said, "Sorry,
I'm still not mollified."
And I laid little spell on them-
You, too, son-
That your family tree
Would always be a barren one...
So there's no more fuss
And there's no more scenes
And my garden thrives-
You should see my nectarines!
But I'm telling you the same
I tell kings and queens:
Don't ever never ever
Mess around with my greens!
Especially the beans.
Oh yeah...

Joseph, Joseph quite controseph how does your garden grow?
I picked some of the radishes because I needed to make room for some of the other plants. They're small, but I think they'll be delicious.
In the other pictures, it is difficult to make out because the focus was off, but you can see some of the string beans that are starting to grow!

Things that I love about my new condo in Florida
I love the LEGO mummy alarm clock that I bought for the master bedroom.
I love the LED nightlights I bought from Wal-Mart. They go on and off automatically!
I love how crisp and clear the HDTV I got is.
I love that I can sleep with the windows open in April and be completely comfortable.
I love that this is something I've wanted since I was a kid and now I have it.
More to come soon! =)

Moving right along
The master bedroom proved to be the easiest room so far. Mostly that is because our techniques for removing the carpet have improved greatly since we started a couple of days ago. We might take a break from working to go to the beach tomorrow, though.

The carpet doesn't match the drapes
In the living room, the carpet is currently half out. What I mean by that is that the carpet is gone, but the sponge underneath is still present. Within the next hour, though, that will be gone, too.
After that we (my mom, dad, and I) will start working in the master bedroom and then in the guest bedroom. I include myself, but the amount of work I've done so far is minimal compared to what my parents have accomplished.
Anyway, expect a video very soon of the process.

Bullying YouTube Video Transcript
So, yeah, when I was in elementary school and high school. ...actually I wasn't bullied at all when I was in high school or in college. In elementary school, (I was bullied) a little bit.
For the most part, I had a lot of friends and most kids liked me. I got along with the majority of my classmates.
There was one exception in school and another out of school. For... I don't know what reason... I actually had the same name as the kid. We were both "Joseph." Although, at the time I didn't prefer "Joseph." I do prefer it now (to Joe or Joey).
There were two other Josephs in my elementary school class. One of them I got along really well with and the other one, for whatever reason, used to make fun of me a lot. So how I dealt with that - which probably wasn't the right way - was the other kid named Joseph was a bit of a bully, too, but he liked me so I used to get him to pick on the kid that picked on me.
Again, that probably was not the right thing to do, but I was 7 or 8 at the time and it worked because the other kid stopped making fun of me. So that was THAT time.
Now, out of school - I guess you guys know that I do theater and musicals and stuff like that, but when I was younger there was a woman I used to take voice and piano lessons with and she did cabarets (songs from different musicals) to raise money for local charities. We did the cabarets at a church. That was the venue, I guess.
So, one of the kids - his mother was in the show also...
When I wasn't using my wheelchair I would crawl around on the ground/floor, so this kid saw me crawling around and called me a baby. He called me that over and over again and I really didn't like being called that. It bothered me quite a bit. A lot, I would say.
Again, I didn't have my wheelchair with me at the time, but I started punching him, his legs... You know, wherever I could reach.
Several of the adults in the show mentioned to his mom that he was causing problems, not just with me, but with other kids. So I didn't have any problems with him after that.
But again, after those two instances I didn't have any trouble with bullying. So that is all I have to say about that.
I will see you next time!

Is this a midlife crisis?
I haven't posted in a while. That is because I haven't really had anything interesting to say. I still don't have anything interesting to say. I just need to vent.
I'm now 31 years old. I don't really have anything to show for my life. A few meaningless awards. Music. Sports cards. All shit really. I've tried to fill my empty life up with that crap. I hoped that those thing would distract me from the void.
I want to have a kid but I'm not sure if I really want to or if I just thimk it would make my life more interesting. The latter isn't a valid reason to have a child, but plenty do it for that reason.
Much like my favorite anti-hero, Pippin, I feel that there has to be more to life than what I've seen. I'm not looking for religion or a job or anything like that. There is so much more I want to do, but I feel like I've lost too much time already.
If it is a midlife crisis, it started early. I've felt this way since I was in my early 20s. It is always worse around my birthday, though. ...and I'm sure what happened in the past year or so made this feeling even worse.
I also can't let go of the past which I am sure is part of the entire thing.
Amazingly enough I typed thing whole thing on my phone.
