Hey it is me the mad man from Phoenix Arizona. I speak well but I write so people don't understand what I say. I write in riddle, I riddle with words missing from my thought, and I told that I write with feeling amd passion.

Who I am and why should I care about why you even address your thoughts

about me. I am 57 years old and original from the east coast. I married for the last 31 years, raise five daughters and now have by the middle of May, eighteen grandchildren.

I can hear in your thought, SO. No I not the riches man in the material sense and I don't even own a home but for the most part I am happy. I am me and no one can take that away from me. Not even AA, MIC, and Tommie boy.

Why do I even write on this site when I know that you three are waiting in the wings to stomp on me and my writing. I have learn more about you guys in the last months to understand this:people who live in glass shouldn't be throwing stones. The other fatc that I have pick up, your people skills are really lacking and I am glad I am not you. If we stuck on a desert island and we needed each other to survive, we are going to die because anything I do would be critique and those actions which would of saved up wouldn't be used and we would die.

One last thing and maybe this will make you happy, as of Friday, I was told by the doctor I have being: I could have lekemia and my bone marrow is screw up so all you have to do is wait and I'll be out of your hair. But until that time I will write(even with my bad grammar and all the faults you all find with me) I am going to write to my heart content. Thank you any way.

Well William, I for one wish you the best. I think that despite some (most) of your comments here, you are a kind-hearted man, who loves his family and country.

You make enemies sometimes on this site. Words are harsher when read than said sometimes.

But, I hope the best for you and will say an Easter prayer for you. Good luck and God Bless.

Christ William. No one here has tried to get you to change who you are. I simply asked you to recognize your strengths and weaknesses, and to use your strengths when trying to help Leonard. Your occasionally incoherent writings at this site do him no favors. I'm not a particularly good singer, so you are not going to catch me performing at any peace rallies. I'm going to make my difference in what I do best (whatever that might be).

As for your tentative diagnosis of leukemia, no, this does not make me happy. I wouldn't wish cancer on anyone, including Tony Snow. I hope your doctor is mistaken, or at the very least that you have one of the more treatable responsive forms of the disease. I know many people whose leukemia/lymphoma had literally melted away after a short course of chemo. I'm sure all our thoughts are with you.

Write whatever you want.

But you posted this under "Politics."

I don't see any politics in here.

Perhaps "Miscellaneous."

Write on, in the appropriate category.

I listened to Leonard on the Saturday show with M.I.C. (I liked him). Need to up the stakes though, William . . . Mccain is small potatoes . . . work on toppling BUSH! Mccain has already dug his own political grave.

Tom,

To the seriousness of the diagnosis, I have never known William to lie. While from tim eto time he may not have all his information straight and might not present it as you or I would, he has never that I can recall been untrue to his own convictions and he has not openly made false statements about himself. For all the crap he has earned on this site I doubt that this is a ploy for money. It's not William's style.

While I have had family members fight this disease and lose the battle I hope that the research done and the advancements made in this area might be of some saving grace to you William.

A positive attitude about your recovery can be helpful. I for one will be wishing you the best and keeping you in my thoughts as you fight this illness. Don't forget William you have fought some harder battles than this and come out on the other side.

Best Wishes...
AA and family.

I will say what follows because I think William would not object:
Ironically, if stem cell research had proceeded forward for the last seven years, instead of that Moron in Charge sitting in his Oval Office, being consulted by Jerry Falwell, and building bridges to the 14th century, perhaps we would have something more tangible in the way of treatment to offer William than a positive attitude.

Five daughters and eighteen grandchildren. My oh my William, haven't you been prolific. That's a third-world birth rate. Congratulations.

You have riddled your article with poor grammar as usual. Others on the site here give you high marks for verbal presentation however. That picks my curiosity.

I have noticed that your writings sometimes swim into focus and are quite coherent. Mostly not, but sometimes. For that reason I cannot totally discount what others on the site attest to. Perhaps your mental formulations are mostly lost in the translation to the written word, but shine through on occasion. Perhaps that loss does not happen when your thoughts are flushed out into the verbal realm. I do hope to catch your radio show to examine that anomaly first hand. Intriguing …

Perhaps you haven't noticed the HEALTH category. That would be a much better choice for an article all about yourself and your emotional and physical health problems. Folks that might actually care and be able to help would be more likely to read the article in the HEALTH category.

You seem to thrive on being "stomped". How else can your long tenure as a contributor and eager flak gatherer be explained? It seems that some here rise to the occasion and accommodate you, but that is all part of the game now isn't it? If they didn't, you would tire of the game and evaporate.

I am sure virtually all of us here at VofA wish you the best. And we appreciate your voluntary role as a flak flack. Cinch up that flak jacket and hang in there tough buddy.

PS. You are showing up more frequently lately. That's fine, but please do contribute to the discourse. Remember the TRASH barrel.

William,

I really enjoyed hearing you the morning on the face off with aa on recalling Bloody John. And as the others have all said, you came across as intelligent, quick witted and informed.

Unfortunately, when you post things here, you drop words, and mispell others, so that your posts look like the ravings of an unmedicated escaped patient from the state hospital. So please, just proof read your posts. Before you hit the comment key, read what you wrote. I know I used to do the same thing on my English papers, and the Prof was kind enough to give me the excuse that it is a sign of an intelligent mind, that moves faster than my typing ability.
