Making This Blog Private

By Bill Craig
Unfortunately it has come to pass that this blog has picked up an idiot who has decided he needs to harrass me.

It is for this reason I am considering making the blog private.

So if you sign onto WTB? and see a prompt for your e-mail address, that's why.

No other reason, and I'll ask my co-administrator BillDL to give me his input regarding this decision.

Till then we'll leave things as they are.

Thanks


Bill

Bill i rarely comment but I do read your blog. That is so sad that some person with no life is doing that to you. Blog Trolls suck big time.

Hang in there and stay strong

Same from me, Bill. Pity you have to go through hoops just over some ratbag who has to have his jollies annoying you.

Take care, my friend.

Good morning Bill - I haven't checked in for a while due to being preoccupied with house problems - 6 frozen pipes in the roof and two rooms downstairs flooded - now have water soaked walls/carpets/floors - you get the point :-)
Anyway, sorry to hear that you are getting 'stupid' mail from someone. Rest assured that you have cyber friends who truly care how you are doing and wish you well. Include me in that group.
Peace. Lesley

Phew, I'm glad everything is ok, sort of. Keeping it private is a good idea.

For some reason, though I got a prompt for my email address, it was not "recognized", so I must have done something wrong.

Take care!

Thanks, Suzette!

My friend and dementia counsellor Suzette recently wrote a very informative (and flattering) article about the "German Boy" and his upcoming bike ride, and you may see it by clicking the title of this entry. I am very appreciative of her and the GA chapter of the Alzheimer's Association for supporting me, and my ride is dedicated to them, Alzheimer patients and their caregivers as well as the four-footers. Incidentally, D and I were finally able to attend this month's Forget Me Not luncheon (for Alzheimer's patients and their care givers) at South of La Paz Mexican restaurant in Atlanta and I'd like to thank my friend for making this possible. Really , Suzette's so sweet she makes ya wanna roll over and do all kinds of doggy tricks for her! I kid, of course, but I don't think I have ever met a more charismatic person in my life. It was also a pleasure to meet and converse with Kathy Simpson who also works with the Georgia chapter. Kathy and I have e-m...

Skipping Ahead A Bit In The Memoirs

By Bill Craig

This is part of something I wrote on another message board with some editing, okay? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- My very good friend on the Dope, Oakminster , brought this to mind when he shared this in a thread of mine called "Your Favorite Commercials". Okay, I have already mentioned that my American soldier Dad brought me and my German Mom and brother to the US in 1960. At that time, I still spoke with a very heavy German accent and did my best to try to fit in. One of the ways was to "go out" for "Midget Football" and it was my first encounter with who would prove to be an inspiration to me and I am sure many others: Coach Roger Sauls who passed away last year. Coach was very patient with me, teaching me the "ins and outs" of throwing and kicking that strange looking egg-shaped ball! In those days, a lot of little boys went out for it and we all had our heroes on the Villa Rica Wildcats Varsity t...

Alzheimer's Advocacy Forum 2011

By Bill Craig

I have been given a great opportunity and honor from my local Alzheimer's Association and my counsellors Suzette and Kathy, and I wanted to tell y'all about it. It is a chance to be granted a scholarship to attend the Public Policy Forum/Advocacy Action Summit which will be May 15-17 2011 in Washington, DC. It will be a time to become educated about the issues, learn new skills, network with fellow advocates and take our message directly to members of Congress to fight for our legislative agenda and I am honored to have been chosen to have my name submitted for this event. If I am chosen to receive the scholarship, I plan not only to participate in all of the above events, but to serve as a "reporter" and write about what I see and experience there. This will also allow me to put to use my journalistic skills which have been "moth-balled" of late. Quoting from Karen Kauffman's* article, 2010 was a year of optimism for those of us in Alzheimer's Advo...
