TREK, The next Generation

My previous most expensive favorite, longest owned, most used bike, has been sold for $100.00. This was the bike to last the rest of my life. It cost about $450.00 around 1992. Instead of paying $140.00 to both replace the back tire, and other adjustments, I purchased a brand new technologically advanced new bike for $460.00. The improvements and ride comfort now rival my 1999 Ford Escort! Ironically, that too just cost me about $475.00 for repair and adjustments. That is twice the price of my annual automobile insurance! My new bike will be a delight to ride once the six month cool and dry season starts here in Florida! It is a Trek 7300 Multi-Track Hybrid, 20' frame, 24 gears.

TREK 720 Multi-Track 20" Hybrid ~ This is a hybrid style bike that combines the smooth roll of a road bike with the stability and upright riding position of a mountain bike. With it's long chain stays and resultant comfy ride, it's perfect for cycle touring or just hitting the bike path.

The full chrome moly frame is 40 inches center to center with the standover height at 32 inches. Shimano all around. Extra wheel, and Kriptonite lock include. Back tire needs replacement. This1992 bike has 21 gears and Shimano 200CX derailleurs. Must pick up bike in Lake Mary, Florida.


I purchased this bike for comfort. My primary concern was if I made the right decision. Should I have spent $140 on my old bike that a new seat and cushion gloves did not improve the jarring ride from a year ago? Instead I sold my old bike for $100, and purchased a new one for $460. In this way I really spent an additional $220 for greater comfort and ease of use. I look forward to driving the bike 5 times weekly for my employment commute. That will be during the cool and dry season of October through March.

Cool and dry means no rain and temperatures in the seventies and sixties. In Florida from April through September, it is raining daily, and constantly in the nineties. Instead of being inside all winter in NY, I am inside all summer in FL. Plus, I dont even have to go out and shovel snow!

Lake Mary continued

WOFL Fox TV channel Fox35 and WRBW My Network TV channel my65 are the two television stations in Lake Mary. WOFL began broadcasting in 720p HDTV format in September 2004. These are the only network Owned and Operated stations in Orlando FLordia. The Call letters mean Orlando FL (Florida).
I stoped watching broadcast television early in 2005. The primary channels I watch are CNN, Science, History, Nat-Geo, and Discovery/Times. (The Lerner Channels). One exception is I LOVE THE FAMILY GUY: http://www.gofish.com/userVideoPlayer.gfp?gfid=30-1022998

During the past weeks introduced me to a great restaurant in Sanford called Hops. Today I discovered Ghirardelli Chocolate. Best song of the year 2006. Black Sabbath with Ozzy Osbourne were inducted into the Roll & Roll Hall of Fame in 2006. 9/5/06 was one of the most eventful, enjoyable, and memorable days of my life. My car cost me about $500. Scroll way down, find the picture of my receipt, and tell me what is unusual.

Would you like to have your hands free for the keyboard and telephone while simultaneously alerting a roamer to help you? Would you like to get assistance without the need to raise your hand? If you have a quick question, would you rather have quicker response? The intent and design of these signs by Andrew, is to alleviate the need for you to raise your hand, and to expedite the right person to assist you quicker. Available help signs by Andrew are: "QUESTION" with "SUPER-VISOR" on the reverse side, and "DIS-PATCH" with "HELP" on the reverse side. These two sign sheets are double printed, double sided, foldable, and reversible. "QUESTION" implies a short quick answer by any roamer.

Fold here to display sign needed. Then place over ruler that you taped to your partition. Design & distributed: Andrew Lerner.


SUPER-VISOR indicates a customer request. "HELP" indicates guidance and training needed. "DISPATCH" is required for a telephone number be dialed for you by a Senior Agent. Taping a ruler to your station partition, and placing the correct folded sign over the top of the ruler, keeps both of your hands free for the keyboard and the telephone! Hands free, and using the right flag, enables everyone to work more efficiently. Uniformity of signage increases recognition and efficiency. Andrew Lerner is the sole person to address this need, and exclusively responsible for providing all of these work aids. This was done independently of management. Fold this sheet on the line above, and pace over a ruler.

NEW BIKE

My sister left two carpets here for me to sell. She paid about for each. I also plan to sell my old bike. I purchased a new one last week for $500. I feel guilty, ashamed, wasteful, and inappreciative purchasing it. I purchased my last bike in 2002. It cost about the equivalent back then, and has been my favorite bike. I find it amazing that my original tires lasted to this year. It needs a new back tire now, and other work and maintenance, that would cost $140. Last year, I purchased a new saddle, and gloves to cushion the harsh ride. Otherwise, the bike is in excellent condition.

This new bike has the shock absorbers for the front wheel, and for the saddle! The saddle has springs! The handle bar is tilt-able as well as risible! The 27 gears have digital displays on the handle bar! I hope I can net $50 or more for my old bike. I don't have the time and energy to do so many things for myself. It is penalizing me hundreds of dollars. I started asking Patti to help me with my computer systems, gardening, and window tinting.

Besides my employment of 45+ hours per week, I have organizing and learning for it in addition, and do not have the time or energy. I wish I had someone to plan and make my meals. Grocery shopping and laundry is at least fun.

I am very glad you enjoyed the Michael Jackson picture. I do a Google search to find a picture that demonstrates the original articles I write. He was born in my year of 1958, and is also like a white woman! I enjoy watching the cute gyetcos climb my windows, and the occasional visit by a crane. I also enjoy the birds and squirrels.

George W. Bush is a nemesis. He is the worst president of our country, and one of the most dangerous people in the world since Adolph Hitler. I would have preferred Saddam Hussein to stay in power to keep his country from civil war. I knew there were no WMDs in Iraq. Now we are in Iraq forever, to prevent another person like Saddam to come into power. We should of had most of our troops in Pakistan. Bush is bankrupting our county, destroying our international relations, and now picking fights with Iran and North Korea. We will not have military capability when its really needed.

Florida is where I can leave my belongings on a table in the cabana while I am swimming in my pool, and come back to find a new pair of shorts added to my belongings. Florida is where I come home to find someone apparently came into my home, and left valuable new items. I found two tapestries on my floor! I plan to sell them on eBay, along with my old bike.

George W. Monument

Dear Friends:

I have the distinguished honor of being on the committee to raise $5,000,000 for a monument of George W. Bush. We originally wanted to put him on Mt.Rushmore until we discovered there was not enough room for two more faces. We then decided to erect a statue of George in the Washington, D.C. Hall Of Fame. We were in a quandary as to where the statue should be placed. It was not proper to place it beside the statue of George Washington, who never told a lie, or beside Richard Nixon, who never told the truth, since George Bush could never tell the difference. We finally decided to place it beside Christopher Columbus, the greatest Republican of them all. He left not knowing where he was going, and when he got there he did not know where he was. He returned not knowing where he had been, and did it all on someone else's money.

Thank you.

George W. Bush Monument Committee

Quotes from a dear friend

"You are so refreshing in the things that you discover and that bring you happiness. It always makes me stop and re-think for myself how special some activities can be = like you enjoying to brush your teeth with the electric toothbrush. I had never thought about how neat it truly is, but now I do!! I guess what also delights me about you is that you don't take things for granted. You are a rare and wonderful individual and I hope you always have that spark of joy for life. I'm so glad you love your house and where you are in Florida. I think that goes so very far towards giving one great mental health which in turns can mean good physical health. Life is good to you and for you and you have sunshine most all theyear round - so this is a good thing."

ELEVEN

1) New York City has 11 letters

2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.

3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993) has 11 letters.

4) George W Bush has 11 letters.

5) The two twin towers make an "11"

This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets more interesting:

1) New York is the 11th state.

2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.

3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11

4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers.
6+5 = 11

5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11

6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number 911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11.

Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make up your own mind:

1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254. >2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year.
Again, 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.

3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.

4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.

Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make up your own mind:
Now this is where things get totally eerie:

The most recognized symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Koran, the Islamic holy book:

"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was peace."

That verse is number 9.11 of the Koran.

Still unconvinced about all of this..?! Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:

Open Microsoft Word and do the following: (TRY THIS FOR REAL)

1. Type in capitals Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.

2. Highlight the Q33 NY


3. Change the font size to 48.


4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS 1

Dr. Fraser Vu

What do you find unusual about my dinner credit card receipt shown below? I finally found my sister's address on the Internet. Therefore her home exists in Florida. I met my first and excellent Cardiologist today! I have appointments for various tests. I may therefore need to have days off other than Thursdays! My Blood pressure is 176 over 111 right and 161 over 105 left. I now take medication for this. Strokes and heart attacks bad. Drugs good. Tartar bad. Electric tooth-brush good. I am 268 pounds. My waist size is 46. I am 6' 1" tall, and have a shoe size of 14 EEEE. XL & Tall store good.

Walgreen's and my medication insurance has been giving me a hard time for weeks over ADDing back my medication. I finally now have it, and am finally taking it again. It was prescribed by my real "regular" Dr. Kane in Altamonte Springs. His name is not spelled "Crane". Kelsey Grammer and I were born on February 21. He is not a real psychiatrist, but plays one on TV. Last Tuesday, I paid my dentist office $400 for my exam and cleaning. My dental benefits were and are exhausted for 2006. Besides the electric toothbrush I purchased in Publix last Tuesday, I also found a night light. There were miniature liquid motion lamps for sale in a tray with price stickers of $1.55. It appeared that it might be a close-out at a bargain price. At the cashier, it came up at $5.99. I disputed this price. It was investigated and found to be incorrectly priced. Because of Publix policy, I received it instead for free! This past Sunday, since Patti liked it, I gave it to her as a free gift. That was the day I enjoyed treating us to Amira's and Carrabba's!

Florida is where I can go into a professional air conditioned comfortable office wearing a T shirt, shorts, and sandals. I received my entire 2 week shirt wardrobe free of charge by working at previous employers in NY. Florida is where I find a large clean pick up truck parked inside a grocery store to sell beer and barbecue supplies for a parking lot. Florida is where the sun is so bright, it takes me a long time to find my shades, only to find I am already wearing a pair. Florida is where if you leave your keys in the ignition, windows open, and the doors open, you will find it locked, the windows closed, and the keys under the mat,when you return at the end of the day. Florida is where someone frequently calls me whenever I leave a mug in a park or opticals in a store or bank. Florida is where you find pictures of New York City in many restaurants. Florida is where I have more earnings, more space, more convenience, more opportunities for employment, better weather, Healthier living, nicer people, and at substantially lower expenses! Florida is where a real living Crane stands in front of my home. His name is "Frasier".

I fill my car with gas about every three weeks. The rent I receive from my tenant, is almost twice what I pay my Home Owners Association to live here! In one year, my property value has appreciated by more than fifty percent! I need a Toyota Rav 4 because 1) my car is too tiny for me. 2) I need more power to accommodate an additional audio amplifier. 3) I need more room to fit in a large sub-woofer. 4) I have to commute to and from work, and it is 1.5 miles away! I plan to purchase a new giant toilet. The last time I did that had the "Crane" brand name.

Delightful Day

First Time is today for Carrabba's Italian Grill. It has replaced Ramano's Macaroni Grill as my favorite Italian restaurant.

I vacuumed my home and did laundry this morning. I ate our weekly lunch at Amira's in Altamonte Spings. Amira's is my favorite Kosher Deli restaurant and all time favorite restaurant of all time.

Then we again went to the XL Men's clothing store in Altamonte Spings for another pair of Izod giant shorts. We Past two Kobe in Altamonte Spings, and went shopping in Walmart of Altamonte Spings.


Then we went into my pool where I lied on my back in the pool looking up at Palm Trees and blue sky. After some work to fix my computer system, continued delightful day with the extraordinary experience and food at Carrabba's Italian Grill in Altamonte Spings. I used the $25 "Outback Steakhouse etc." gift card that my dentist office gave me. What do you find unusual about my dinner credit card receipt shownto the above left? It was a consolation for DHL loosing my crown. There is an Outback Steakhouse across the street in Altamonte Spings, not to far from Imperial Dynasty and Kobe. Those are the best Chinese food and Japanese restaurants.


I now realize that not everything is in Lake Mary. After got back from our dinner, found another from It is dated September 1, 2006. Yes, who has been my best ever, and has stayed

First Times

GIANT shorts


During the past week, I made my first purchase in an extra large and tall clothing store. It is the only pair of giant shorts that I own. I am flossing for the first time. I purchased my first ever electric tooth-brush! I love it! It does such a thorough job of removing tartar, and makes cleaning the inside of teeth possible! I am amazed that I have lived without it for most of my life! I only had a microwave oven, VCR, computer systems, mobile phone, cable TV and Internet service! I made my first purchase of lettuce in many years. For the first time, I purchased it in non-head form. It is cleaned, cut and in a transparent plastic bag! Sometimes decadence is necessary! Giant Shorts is not related to World Wide pants of David Letterman.

The Telephone

Thank you for your telephone calls. I appreciate them very much. It is always possible to reach me by telephone. I have two telephone numbers. As long as I am awake and not employed, I can I answer you live. I can talk with you at the moment you want to. Several times, when I am not home, I have my cell phone with me, and I am willing and able to answer the person as soon as I am notified by music, beeps, vibration, lights, or ring tones. During these times, I frequently get calls on my home phone. I don't know about those until I get home, often at the end of the day. I do not use my call forwarding feature. When I am home, I sometimes have my cell phone off. I many times get people leaving messages on my cell phone voice mail during these times when I am home. I often do not listen to these messages until the next day when I turn on my cell phone. I do not use, or know if I have call forwarding for my mobile phone. If I do not answer my mobile phone, I am probably employed or home. If I am home, I will answer my home VoIP telephone. If I am employed, I will listen to your voice mail from my mobile service. If I do not answer my home phone, I probably will answer my mobile phone. Please listen to my recorded messages, and call my other telephone number. If you don't reach me at 516-770-3766, call me at 321-214-9855. It is cheaper to call my 516 number if you are from the NYC Long Island area. It is cheaper to call my 321 number if you are in the Orlando Florida area. Yet my callers frequently do the reverse. Some people might enjoy spending money and recording their voice. Some people who enjoy saving money , having reliable telephone communication, and are not stupid, use VoIP like Vonage. I do not know people referred to in the last two sentences. While I am writing this, I have two male NY Baby Boomers in mind. I care about them very much. Thank you very much for your telephone calls. I am not employed after 7pm, or all day on Sundays, and Thursdays starting August 17, 2006. When I am home, which is Sundays, or every day after 7pm, you can call me at my home number. That is 321-214-9855. If you are answered by my Internet voice mail, you can record a message, and or call me again at my mobile phone number. I can then answer you when you call me at that number. That number is 321-770-3766. When I am employed, which is every day except Sunday, you can call me at my mobile number. That is 516-770-3766. If I can not answer you, you can leave a voice message on my cellular voice mail service. I am employed on Saturdays. I am home on Sundays. When I am employed, it is between 8am and 7pm.

I will be taking off from employment on Tuesdays August 1 and 8. Then I will be off on Thursdays. I will be working on all Wednesdays. I will continue to be off from employment on Sundays.

August 8 will be my second and last Tuesday off in succession. After much waiting, cancelled-by-Dr. appointments, and Cardiologists, I have my hopefully first appointment with a Cardiologist on Tuesday, August 8, 2006, at 10:15 am. That is why I arranged to have two Tuesdays off. August 8 will be my second and last Tuesday off in succession.

I will then be off on Thursdays, starting 8/17/06, for an indefinite amount of time. I will be working on all Wednesdays for an indefinite amount of time.

Greatest Dream Present Ever!

On Sunday, 7/23/06, has given me twenty (20) compact discs of my most favorite music from the following heavy, hard, metal, and alternative Rock artists:

KoRn, Limp Bizkit, Slipnot, Anthrax, Jame's Addiction, Jimmy Eats World, System Of A Down, Disturbed, Marilyn Manson, P.O.D., Guns & Roses, Default, Hoobastank, PUMP IT UP-Elvis Costello, Ramones, Iggy Pop, Fatboy Slim, LIT, Ace Of Base...
I am very happy about this, and with the music.I still want to have Godsmack. Today is my last Wednesday off. My next four days off are Tuesdays and Sundays. I will be working next and all Wednesdays. I will be off on the next two Tuesdays. After that, I will be off on Thursdays as of 8/17/06.

Tuesday, July 25, 2006

Tuesdays

August 8 will be my second and last Tuesday off in succession. I said that I had a new telephone number, because I had a new telephone number. Although I was offered, and obtained a third telephone number free of charge, I changed my mind and had it disconnected. Please excuse me, and any confusion and inconvenience caused by this. I pay $30/month in total for 750 + 500 minutes for cell and VoIP telephone service. I use 350 minutes of those per month. Therefore, I find another telephone with unlimited free minutes superfluous.

After much waiting, cancelled-by-Dr. appointments, and Cardiologists, I have my hopefully first appointment with a Cardiologist on Tuesday, August 8, 2006, at 10:15 am. That is why I arranged to have two Tuesdays off. August 8 will be my second and last Tuesday off in succession.

I will then be off on Thursdays, starting 8/18/06, for an indefinite amount of time. I will be working on all Wednesdays for an indefinite amount of time. I have always been, and will continue to be off on Sundays.

Thursdays

I will be taking off from employment on Tuesdays, and then off on Thursdays, starting in August. I will be working on Wednesdays starting in August. I will continue to be off from employment on Sundays. I only still have the same phone numbers I have had for years. There is no new telephone number. People in the State of Missouri state that they are in the State of Mizurah. They are in the state of denial, since they are really in the state of misery. This is due to one of the greatest storms to ever hit there Wednesday 7/19 and Thursday July 20, 2006. The record heat and power outages have resulted in many deaths. You can either live in Florida, or in misery. The UN is UNimpressive. The USA is in JerUSAlem. I'm not rude, hyper, shy, retarted, lazy, psychotic, or evil. I am Autistic, just as Albert Einstein was.

Our Anniversary

Gina and I were both married on this date. We were in different states during our weddings, and experienced them during different years. We did not know each other at those times. I am divorced. She will probably will get that done too. Today, she asked me to let her know when I want to marry her. I told her I would send her an email if I did. Both of us used to commute to our mutual former employer, 37 miles away from home. One of the top ten benefits of my present employer is that it is 36 miles closer to my home. When I was married, my area code was 718 and I lived in area code 718. The date I was married, and today, is 7/18. My area codes are now 321 and 516.
