The Struggle, First Generation (Book) - 5/31/2009 9:07:35 PM
Karen Thank you for your review of my poem.
I am ordering your book from one of the booksellers for sure.
My daughter married a second generation Italian American from Syracuse, N.Y. and so my grands have the same roots. I found the immigrant Treglia's ship manifest on the Ellis Island website. It was 1922 they came and it was a struggle for Italian's . My son in law was partly raised by his immigrant grandmother who taught him how to prepare lots of dishes. I love his pizza and homemade bread from scratch!
My grands are beautiful.
Your such an accomplished woman. Viva Karen!
God Speed!

Coming from Italian roots myself, my Nonna's parents came to Ellis Island from Verona at the turn of the twentieth century, I am definitely going to have to get my hands on this book soon.

Your poem reminds me of my youth when I slept overnight at a beach that is now Terminal Island. Today, it's a shipyard but the memory lingers.

Age of Entitlement and Expectation (Book) - 4/18/2008 8:17:50 AM
I am looking forward to reading this! I and many parents my age have had many dialogs on this very subject having raised children in the 70's, 80's and 90's with what we believe to be the values instilled in us as children only to be contradicted by counterproductive external influences. Parenting is truly a different landscape!
The Struggle, First Generation (Book) - 4/16/2008 2:12:17 PM
Karen, this sounds like a very interesting book. I'm 2nd Generation myself, all four of my grandparents having come over from Italy. One of the things I've often thought would also make a good story involves the life struggle of Italian-Americans (like my father) who had to go fight in Italy in WWII. Terry

Karen, My wife raised our children and I worked. We did without a lot of things but it paid off in the long run. It was very hard but worth it. You talked about dress codes. I wish we had them in school now. Thw students look like a bunch of bums looking for a hand out. they dont care what they look like. or what anyone thinks we have lost much along the way!The good old days were not always the best, but how I would love to have some of them back! nice write, I look forward to reading more.

Age of Entitlement and Expectation (Chapter One: Remembering) (Short Story) - 3/23/2009 11:47:06 AM
History is in the eye of the beholder. The day we stop remembering the past, either through first-hand or second-hand knowledge of events, like what you have shared with us here, then we die to that day and all potential improvement to it is lost. The author Palumbo cleaned up a few typos, and punctuation issues left over the original posting, leaving the story easy to read, well told, and believable. Holds the readers attention well. This holds promise for the book it is excerpted from for this reader to enjoy.

Introduction to Age of Entitlement and Expectation (Short Story) - 3/18/2009 6:50:57 AM
Teaching indeed should start in the home. When I was a young boy I would walk to town with my mother, and I had better walk next to the curb. Because that showed respect to her.and perhaps protection.I do not see this today, most young people won't even open a door for a lady.I am afraid these values are lost on this generation.It all goes back to haveing everything my way. I work in a school, and when I get the chance I try to show the students the right thin to do. Your words hold much truth. randy smith

Interesting article Karen. Although I have never been in the position of supporting aged relatives( we burn brightly but not long in my family) I am very aware of the need to leave my children free of debt and responsibility as I grow older. Thank you for posting it , and thanks for your sweet review of my poem

The "We" Generation (Short Story) - 11/20/2008 1:49:51 PM
An all too true view of what is happening. Yet I have to say, we are so much better off than many who have no one to help them out.
I don't know how my husband and I would handle it today if we had to support any of our family for very long. Combining income isn't so bad, but supporting them on what we make would be impossible. A few short years ago, we would have no problem.
I think it is a shame that we are all in the economic mess we are, but sharing the "privilage" of helping in the care and support of an elderly parent is one way of honoring them.
I'm just glad my parents have six children. :-)
Kitties Christmas Survival (Short Story) - 11/10/2008 12:54:13 PM
Hi Karen,
I had to read this story because we have two cats of our own that are spoiled also. I hope you still have your three cats and that they are old enough to not want to bother your Christmas tree this year. For some reason, our fellows do not bother the tree.
Hey, maybe if you had a train going around your tree, they would leave the tree alone.
I enjoyed reading this story.

Kitties Christmas Survival (Short Story) - 10/25/2008 4:34:56 PM
A very sweet story, Karen. It reminds me very much of the times with my kitty, Max (who I sadly lost six years ago). He would do many of the same things. They are endearing family members. Charming tale! Best, Elizabeth
The "We" Generation (Short Story) - 10/14/2008 7:42:42 PM
Dear Karen,
I found this article quite interesting. My husband and I are in that position (with one of our parents and both college age kids). We are blessed to have enough income to do all that needs to be done without a struggle (most of the time). Your story points out a facet of our society that has caught many of us by surprise. It helps to be reminded that we are not alone.
Thanks,
Linda

The "We" Generation (Short Story) - 9/19/2008 4:08:32 AM
I fully expect that in the next five to eight years both my mother, and mother in-law will require some type of assistance. But I love them both, so I'll do what needs to be done. The only thing I wish would happen...that the government would get thier hands a little less deeply into my pockets so I can manage a little better.
Nicely stated and articulated.

Age of Entitlement and Expectation (Chapter One: Remembering) (Short Story) - 7/31/2008 7:17:13 AM
The feelings of entitlement really put a stranglehold on any meaningful societal growth, and you make your points with eloquence and logical conclusions. I was well into my teen years by the time the “Computer Age” had begun to dawn. And being raised by my grandfather I was able to see even more deeply into the past, and appreciate what I had. I look back now and I miss those times, and I worry for today’s children who can effectively never leave home because of television, computers, internet, cell-phones…the list goes on and on. I honestly think that there is a certain amount of social and societal detachment that comes with these amenities.
What I find even more disturbing is that we seem to have “collective amnesia.” If you go further back in time I’m sure the Egyptians, Romans, Sumerians, Greeks, etc, all thought that they would go on forever, that they would never see the end. Invincible, undeniable, eternal…
If we forget that they ended, some of them violently, than in my humble opinion we do ourselves a disservice, and trick ourselves into a false sense of security.
Absolutely a wonderful piece!

Cats are a wonderful work of mother nature that we bring inside our homes. These little ones think you are awfully nice to have brought a tree inside for them to play on--and to put toys on it, too! Boy, you just think of everything! :)
Remembering (Short Story) - 7/26/2008 11:25:44 AM
Karen,
It was a different time then with so many different rules and laws, and today, things are not as difficult but now returning to that way. Our parents are our rock to guide us through tough times and how to survive, and children will have to learn that money can't be merely spent. Things may be different now, and they may not be. But one thing should never change, and that is that family always comes first.
I love your writing and really enjoyed reading this. :)

Your fondness for those times is expressed nicely here. I enjoyed this read! Love and Hugs~
Remembering (Short Story) - 7/4/2008 10:11:22 PM
Karen,
I've noticed that, in these times, you cannot teach work ethic. One either has it or doesn't. That's why I like your explanation about work ethic in the beginning of this write. The conveniences of today are causing a weakened work force while the hardships of yesterday forged workers willing to do what they had to do. Engaging~ Love and Hugs.

The "We" Generation (Short Story) - 7/2/2008 4:56:33 AM
Hi, Karen.
Unfortunately, your story is very close to home. I've been watching my parents struggle with money and struggle with supporting their six children. My father retired a couple of years ago but now works at another job to bring in extra income for his family.
My brothers and I unfortunately hold our hands out to our parents to ask them for help with finances, but I hate asking them for help. I've been trying to find a job for the last month, but so far, there is nothing out there. And the bills are climbing.
Things are getting even more difficult out there, and the economy is looking grim. And the weight falls on my parents, who are struggling to pay their own bills as well as their children's bills.
Remembering (Short Story) - 6/6/2008 8:01:04 AM
This is beautifully written. My own parents often talked about growing up during the war time and depression. I think this is why they worked so hard, and were frugal. My work ethic comes from my parents, exactly the way you said it. The only difference was that in my house, they smoked Lucky Strike cigarettes instead of cigars. Your writing touched a special place in my heart today.

Prison vs. Work (Article) - 9/25/2009 5:30:35 PM
just think, for most who spend over 10 years in and get out they are so acclimated to prison they commit crimes again just to get back in. and we are still working, where is the justice for that??? good write and so true.
Child care is designed for the convenience of adults... (Article) - 6/11/2009 10:10:58 PM
I have personally observed both systems- the God-designed "Home" and its man-made substitute, "day-care", and God's design is superior by far. Karen, you wrote an excellent article! It is absolutely heart-breaking to watch as countless children are neglected, for the parents convenience. There will always be those who try and soothe the consciences of those who rightly feel guilty for abandoning their God-given responsibility to parent their children rather than out-sourcing this duty to others, but as long as you keep writing the truth in love, there is hope!
1957 vs. 2007 (Article) - 5/4/2009 12:38:52 PM
This is so true, Karen,
Even in the 1970s when I was a preschool teacher I never had to call a parent, expel a student, or send a student to the office. The kids were fun, rowdy, and at times a handful. I never suggested they be medicated, and I didn’t greet the parents with behavior complaints. I thought it was more important to tell the parents a cute story, or brag on their child than to relay a minor discipline problem.
I wouldn’t do it for all the money in the world today.

1957 vs. 2007 (Article) - 3/16/2009 2:01:04 PM
You've hit a nerve, Karen. Guess who pays for all the police and government activity and all the people behind bars. The U.S. has the highest incareration rate of any country in the world! Arresting 4th graders for disrupting classes is idiotic. My retired policeman friend said they used to wink at the local bookie who had his office in a retail shop. Now they'd probably close the place down. I just hope my grandsons are allowed to grow up.
Keep writing.

Some educators won't write off the fading art of cursive.... (Article) - 2/25/2009 12:48:42 PM
Research shows, in any case, that the fastest and clearest handwriters avoid cursive. Highest-speed highest-legibility handwriters tend to use print-like letter-shapes wherever printed and cursive letters "disagree" -- these fastest, clearest handwriters also join only some of the letters, making the easiest joins and skipping the rest.
Even signatures do not legally require cursive, and never have required it -- if you didn't know this, ask your attorney! (Yes -- anyone telling you that "signatures require cursive" has misrepresented the law of the land.)
Are child behavioral drugs being misused? (Article) - 2/4/2009 12:49:30 PM
oh my god i relate to this article soooo much; i know people who give their kids drugs like they were perscribed for an elaphant, and they rave "how much good its doing", and "hes doing so much better in school" but there is no difference, in fact if anything he has gotten worse; swearing profusely and shouting death threats as well as having big 'spas attacks' is the only way i can describe it, where he goes completely balistic over the simplest things and then cries for hours. i am really worried about him, and i am pretty sure the "drugs for kids to make conveinence" thing is absolutely right because before he moved in with his step dad he was pretty much fine, but his step dad has a noise problem or something that gives him headaches and he cant take too much stress, so they drug him up. not saying they overdose him, i dont know, but i think they are giving him unnecacery meds and i KNOW it is wrong. i cant believe it could come to them dying, that is so evil. anyway, ya, thanks for the review and thanks for informing me on this article

Will you die for Him? (Poetry) - 11/22/2009 4:34:12 PM
This Karen is a strong spiritual that I know comes deep from within your soul. Although I am not a "Christian" I do believe in the premise that we should all love each other but never sacrifice our heritage and religious believes at the cost of someone elses. Tolerence and respect is a two way street and both sides must learn to abide by it.

Being told to believe in a new green God, stamped by Washington face, The greed God, is also the one that killed Jesus, for thirty more or less Shekels, we are still selling him to the highest bidder today aren't we? A very powerful hardhidding message, much needed today. Hugs! Jasmin Horst

"...will you die for him, or in shame hide?..." and around are so much same that it cannot be hidden. People are going too fast, perhaps should them stop and look back to see how much they have already lost...

We now have a dictator who was given all the power he needs for a bloodless coup by those that voted him into office.

I will too, Karen. This country is sadly teetering on the brink of hell. Well said and written, my friend. God bless.

An effective rant put forth in poetry format on the ills of society gives us a multidimensional view with the accompanying photography. You've covered a lot of ground here, Karen and a lot of sky...it's good to see Nostradamus in a line here, too...it adds the dimension of prophecy...be well.
Love,

Yes I certainly would. Although from past experience I think he wants me alive. Maybe we can convert a few souls. This was a wonderful poem, Karen.
GOD BLESS
