Sugar Daddy. Top Story - October 2023.
? THIS or THAT ? I am a noted Stick-Figure-Artist, who can't even stay within the lines of Paint-By-Numbers. This fabulous artist said that the inspiration for her gorgeous watercolor was when she asked her friends their 'CHOICE' of favorite childhood treats. Some said "Hostess-Twinkies—Others Helms-Truck Pastries," hearing the tweet of the Bakery trucks coming down their street, from their stomachs even before their ears.

POKER. Top Story - September 2023.
Shuffle - AnTe~Up - Catch a Card – Poker-Tale-TELLS We all have kitchen table poker card game stories. The Monday Night Poker Group was no different. We were all about constant 'Table-Talk-Goofs' and not so much about money; mostly about friendly camaraderie. Although, Twin-Lucky-Lar, recently shared with me (as if I didn’t know this) “I wasn’t always Mr. Money Bags, I would use my Monday night winnings to pay for lunch the next day.” Ironically, some of the guys were rich, and those players seemed to be more conservative in their betting than we poor guys – go figure?

Pink Slip
Toss-up your 'Blinker' - Just move-on –Changing Lanes– Have you ever been Fired? We never forget that day. 1st reaction of ALL would probably be the overwhelming feeling of rejection - What did I do wrong? Knocks your wind out! Usually our 1st Firing from our 1st job is the most memorable: But, after the initial Firing-Phenomenon, all the following 'Usher-Outs' become old hat - certainly not so dramatic - been there done that 'tude-taken: An emotional shock to your personal 'Failure Factor' Department - Inadequacy? Nah! We, of course, will miss our co-workers and 'workable' comfort zones, but as with all facets of life, it's time to move on.

- Victims Too -. Top Story - August 2023.
Author © Jay Kantor Cold-Case -They Just Didn't Know- Out of respect for families that are "Victims Too" So many families have lifetime memories of not being able to say our GoodByes. This bond between survivors that such tragedies build - I'm so sorry for your loss - Please reach out and show them that you care. Oftentimes the lack of human empathy is the cruelest behavior, and it never goes unnoticed. The focus of this 'Tell-Tale' is how one may be treated by family and friends after a horror that only compounds the tragedy for all the subsequent years.

Dear Mom. Top Story - July 2023.
Author © Jay Kantor "Just put some Ketchup on it and Eat-It" — Dinners Disguise — Mom, such a character! She was a Huge-Hugger! She just wouldn’t let those she loved pass by without a little kiss or hug; so we just put-up-with-it! The spitting image of actress Betty White, always with the sparkling dimpled-smile. She served (2) terms as P.T.A. President. I don’t really know why, she never had much of a podium 'Schpiel' - So-to-Speak - But, being very pretty and sociable probably made up for that?

Dear Dad. Top Story - June 2023.
Author © Jay Kantor — Super Size Me - Life with Father — Nightly, as he sat in his reserved chair, that no one dared to sit upon, he would bark orders to anyone passing by to change the channels (no 'Clickers' in those days) on our un-movable - toe stubbing - state-of-the-art 24" Black/white R.C.A. TV console. Only talking to him permitted between commercials of his favorite shows such as Laurence Welk and Perry Mason; no fast forward then either.

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!
