To say the morning is different..It’s a
Demetrius X feeling!

I pulled over at X marks the spot* in Dealy Plaza for a second Ambulance code-3 towards the big jail.

Here's the brilliant kind humorous
veteran who fought for me, and all of you.
He isn't walking Earth with us any longer but I will always hold him in my heart. Happy Veterans Day. Happy 250 years to our Marine Corps.

An Aside: On Last Friday’s pre-dawn photo shoot. I met eyes with either a Zombie driving a burgundy bucket
or Homicide Det. on 24hr+

I sometimes buy something for because it’s novel or awe inspiring, not thinking of profit.
This was a dollar on Amazon
I think it’s out of print.
between $45-60 a couple years ago. Fortunate.

3️⃣Things a good man wants

1. To do what he wants
(I’m talking good man)
2. A faithful dog
3. A woman that respects

Two out’a three ain’t bad🤭
