Gang terrorizes train in France. The cauldron continues to boil. They took the lid off long enough for some heat to escape but they did not solve the problem. The perps know they can get away with this and will continue to become bolder and bolder until a serious crackdown. The Gendarms will have to go in large numbers and will likely require some military assistance to quell the next outbreak. The "north african immigrants" (read: black and muslim) are moving in progressively larger numbers. If this continues apace, look for a strong rightward move in France on both a national and local level. They are, however, stuck in that these kids are citizens and many of them born in France. It's not going to be as simple as deporting them from whence they came. I feel like a broken record on this. Call me Cassandra

So....the autism thing
Since April is nearly over and it's autism awareness month, I suppose I should talk a bit about it. I guess the best way to start is to rehash the story of How I Got Here. My oldest was born in 1999.

Our doctor assured us it was because he was so young and his eyesight was undeveloped and he was probably focusing on something in the background that was more interesting. Besides, babies don't recognize faces for a few months after birth. Only later did we find out that our doctor was an idiot. He was 16 mos. old when his little brother was born and he was walking and making wishes known by pulling me or my wife by the hand to whatever he wanted etc. He was fascinated with the wheels on toys. If you gave him a truck he'd turn it over and spin the wheels and smile. Only later would I find out this is a major warning sign. This was our first born and what the hell did I know? ...

I've not spoken of this here but Depression, the Black Dog, is something I've struggled with for a very long time. The last time I was not depressed was when I was deeply in love with a woman who saw me for who I am and loved me anyway. I have never before or since loved someone so deeply, so completely as I did with her. Unfortunately, I pushed her away and the pain and the loss are beyond what I could have expected. I was married for over 20 year and the loss of that relationship is far beyond any pain or loss I have experienced. The worst part is that it was my fault. I cannot blame anyone else and every single day I contend with that loss. She knows this blog exists but I know she has moved on and does not read this. I think that makes it easier to be honest. Knowing her as much as I do, she would likely roll her eyes at the fact that I am still in love with her. She ended things and I'm quite certain that after that day she never thou...
