Wheelchair Etiquette
Author © Jay Kantor –All you have to do in life well is 'Roll' with the Punches– Prologue: This is not meant to be a 'Poor-Me' story. I was lucky enough to survive a car-crash {and NO it wasn't my fault} My 'Lux' German car had (8) Airbags: I so got my money's worth. But during my recovery I've observed a side of life that I had never experienced before. I’m privy to the 'Freedom' that the Lithium lightweight 'Portable' chair the Newbie-Gen invented for us 'Boomers' - Thanks a lot Newbies. Although, ironically, I can't 'ride-it-in-the rain' or have my cell phone on during operation; serious flame-up precautions, Seriously!

Pick your Battles
Author © Jay Kantor – The Un-Battle Face-Off – Just bite your tongue – Better than a horn-poke in the eye. I don't know if the 'Rhino' is a HE? But, with its Hump it may be at least a Trans-Beast: The Horny Beast is destined for battle - Put up your Dukes!

The Edge
Author © Jay Kantor THE EDGE - Push - Prologue: Ah, yes, another rant! Somebody's got to do it ~ I guess I'm IT – I've personally experienced zealot progressives. I've been unable to say a word around them without a big confrontation; that's not me at all. I'm very much out of the loop! My only point Is that I just don't get a lot of things that are commonplace these days from Billboard-Body Tats/and Nose Piercings (ouch). And, I really don't care what kind of food someone eats or who they choose to sleep with for that matter; but respect rights of privacy.

Last Valentine
Author © Jay Kantor Last Valentine - The Nurse - NO New Memories – Some Special Ones You can be a Homeowner dealing with faulty plumbing issues, escalating tax bills, or there's always something! So, what's better? You lease an apartment and once everything's signed you're at the mercy of the landlord; lucky to get simple maintenance. Or should we, now, buy a Condo-Townhouse-Loft or whatever they're referred to as these days. And, then try to deal with the HOA's everyday nonsense once the image of the 'Curb-Appeal' wears off? Nah, the days of owning a sovereign log-cabin are 'out the window' as the American Dream: Dad sold our house for not much profit; just felt he got his innings out of it. (Really!)

Alter Ego
Author © Jay Kantor — Stream of Conscious–Subconscious — The complex complicated components of mental activities within an individual that proceed without total awareness. Subconscious processes may affect a persons behavior, even though we cannot always report on them, that concern the part of the mind one is not completely cognizant of but influences one's actions and feelings all the same.

Love ~ Hate
Author © Jay Kantor LOVE ~ HATE – Circle of Life – Jumping Through Hoops: Most of us can relate to too many problems to solve overloads. As soon as you solve one problem, more circle to appear side-by-side with those special moments. 'The Circle of Life,' as a philosophical concept is that our lives resemble a complete full-circle – with its joy and trials.

Sticks & Stones
Author © Jay Kantor STICKS & STONES — Phobias-Idioms — We all have phobias - big or small - that we often 'mask' as too embarrassing to tell anyone. Example: Fear of clowns 'Coulrophobia' perhaps your not-everyday 'Fear of Heights' or 'Closed in Elevator' issues? There was once an entire 'Seinfeld' episode that focused on Goofy-Kramer's fear of Clowns! Although a 'Biggie' with me is 'Fear of Women!'

Generation Gap
Author © Jay Kantor — OUR S.U.V. — The 1947 Chrysler Woody 'Vert – NO HYBRIDS here! The tank-metal craftsmanship is relic.
