@@@@@That weak and needy part of their soul is

January 1st, 2011 · No Comments · Uncategorized

@@@@@That weak and needy part of their soul is actually screaming louderThey don’t want to lose the big houses, the cars, the high life that money has bought themThey worry about what their friends would say if they lost all their moneyMany are emotionally desperate and neurotic, although they look rich and have more money
“So is a poor man happier?” I asked
“No, I don’t think so,” replied rich dad”The avoidance of money is just as psychotic as being attached to money
As if on cue, the town derelict went past our table, stopping by the large rubbish can and rummaging around in itThe three of us watched him with great interest, when before we probably would have just ignored him
Rich dad pulled a dollar out of his wallet and gestured to the older manSeeing the money, the derelict came over immediately, took the bill, thanked rich dad profusely and hurried off ecstatic with his good fortune
“He’s not much different from most of my employees,” said rich dad”I’ve met so many people who say, `Oh, I’m not interested in money’ Yet they’ll work at a job for eight hours a dayThat’s a denial of truthIf they weren’t interested in money, then why are they working? That kind of thinking is probably more psychotic than a person who hoards money
As I sat there listening to my rich dad, my mind was flashing back to the countless times my own dad said, “I’m not interested in money He said those words oftenHe also covered himself by always saying, “I work because I love my job
“So what do we do?” I asked”Not work for money until all traces of fear and greed are gone?”
“No, that would be a waste of time,” said rich dad”Emotions are what make us humanThe word `emotion’ stands for energy in motionBe truthful about your emotions, and use your mind and emotions in your favor, not against yourself
“Don’t worry about what I just said

They are very close for the moment, and his troubles spill outHonestly, Bev, keeping up with everything makes me go so goddam fast; I get so I just want to take a breath, you know what I meanA man’s own sister, it puts quite a stir in you
In the barrooms, in the smoking cars, in the locker room at the golf club they are talking about Patty Brown
I swear, Bev, I ever catch you in anything like that, I’ll kill you, so help me I’ll kill you
Honey? You can trust meBut she is thrilled by the sudden burst of his passion
I feel a hell of a lot older, Bev

On the eighteenth he lines up the putt, estimates the roll of the greenIt is a five-foot shot and he should make it, but he knows suddenly that he’s going to failThe handle of the putter thonks dully against his palms as the ball rolls short a foot

Rich dad encouraged Mike and me to know a little about a lotHe encouraged us to work with people smarter than we were and to bring smart people together to work as a teamToday it would be called a synergy of professional specialities

He wouldn’t live long enough to find out anyway, he thought

Hearn couldn’t sleep eitherHe was extremely restless, and an odd febrile fatigue had settled in his legsFor almost an hour he turned over continually in his blanket, staring at the mountain, the moon above them, the hills, the ground before his faceSince the ambush, he had been feeling something, not exactly definable, but close to anxiety and unrest, and it had been driving himIt was almost painful to remain stillAfter a while he stood up, and walked through the hollowThe guard on the hilltop saw him and raised his rifleHe whistled softly, and then said, “Who is it — Minetta? This is the Lieutenant
He climbed up the slope and sat down beside MinettaBefore them in the moonlight the grass swayed in silver waves over a valley and the hills looked like stone
“What’s up, Lootenant?” Minetta asked
“Not a damn thing, just stretching my legs They talked in whispers
“Jesus, it’s a bitch being on guard after that ambush Hearn massaged his legs, trying to soothe them
“What’re we doing tomorrow, Lootenant?”
Well, what were they doing? This was what he had to face”What do you think, Minetta?”
“I think we ought to turn around and go backThe damn pass is closed, ain’t it?” Minetta’s voice, even muted, was indignant as if he had been thinking about this for a long time”I don’t know, maybe we will He sat up there with Minetta for a few minutes more, and then went down into the hollow again, slipped under his blanketIt was as simple as thatWhy didn’t they turn around and go back, since the pass was closed?
All right, why?
The answer was simple enoughHe didn’t want to turn around and call the patrol

@@@@@Wireman? Let’s do this
The two of us rolled Emery into the hole, then
threw in the pieces of him that broke off – or as
many as we could findI still remember his stony
coral grin as he tumbled into the dark to join his
brideAnd sometimes, of course, I dream about it
In these dreams I hear Adie and Em calling up to
me from the dark, asking me if I wouldn’t like to
come down and join themAnd sometimes in those
dreams I doSometimes I throw myself into that
1089
dark and stinking throat just to make an end to my
memories
These are the dreams from which I wake up
screaming, thrashing at the dark with a hand that
is no longer there

It was as if the clock had been rolled back to the
previous OctoberI was already thinking of the
few Oxycontin tablets I had waiting for me back at
Big PinkI would have three, I decidedThree
would do more than kill the pain; with luck they
would also pound me into at least a few hours of

Too late, too late, too late
The idea wasn’t clearWhat was clear was the
sound of the shellsYou could hear that sound
from anywhere inside Big Pink, but to get the full
effect, you really had to come up on the place

@@@@@After the week of successful advances that

December 10th, 2010 · No Comments · Uncategorized

@@@@@After the week of successful advances that followed the failure of the Japanese attack across the river, Cummings had paused for a few days to strengthen his lines and complete his road netIt had been planned as a temporary halt before breaching the Toyaku Line, but the layoff was fatalWhen Cummings started again, his tactics were as well conceived as they had ever been, his staff performances as thorough, his patrols as carefully planned, but nothing happenedThe front had been given its first chance to solidify, and like a weary animal it had done even more; it had fallen asleep, it had hibernatedA deep and unshakable lethargy settled over the front-line troops
In the two weeks that followed the rest period, after a series of intensive patrols and strong local attacks, his lines had advanced a total of four hundred yards in a few sectors, and had captured a total of three Japanese outpostsCompanies went out on combat patrols, engaged in desultory fire fights, and then retreated back to their bivouacsThe few times an important piece of terrain was taken, the men had relinquished it at the first serious counterattackAs a sure sign of the reluctant temper of the troops, the best line officers were becoming casualties now, and Cummings knew the type of engagement that signifiedAn attack would be made on some strong point, and the men would lag behind, the co-ordination would be poor, and it would end with a few men, a few good officers, and noncoms engaging a superior force while their support evaporated
Cummings made several trips to the front and found the men had bedded downThe bivouacs had been improved, there were drainage pits and overhead covers on the foxholes, and in a few companies duckwalks had been laid in the mudThe men would not have done this if they expected to moveIt represented security and permanence, and it introduced a very dangerous change in their attitudesOnce they halted and stayed in one place long enough for it to assume familiar connotations, it was immeasurably harder to get them to fight againThey were dogs in their own kennel now, Cummings decided, and they would bark sullenly at orders
Each day that elapsed without any fundamental change on the front would only increase their apathy, and yet Cummings knew that he was temporarily powerlessAfter intense preparation, he had mounted a large attack with good artillery plotting, some Air Corps bomber support which had been granted only after much pleading, had thrown his tanks into it, his reserve troops, and after a day the attack had ground down to nothing; the troops had halted before the most insignificant resistance, had gained in one small sector perhaps a quarter mileWhen they had done and the losses been counted, the minor alterations in his front line established, he had all of the Toyaku Line still before him, unbreached, unthreatenedIndeed, it was terrifyingThe communications from corps and army were growing progressively impatientSoon, like a traffic jam, that pressure would be backed up all the way to Washington, and Cummings could imagine without difficulty the conversations that must be going on in certain rooms of the Pentagon”Well, what’s happening here, what’s this, Anopopei, what’s holding it up, whose division, Cummings, Cummings, well, get the man out of there, get someone else
He had known it was dangerous to rest the troops for a week, but it was a gamble he had had to take while he finished the road, and it had boomerangedThe shock cut deeply into the General’s confiden
