OAKLAND CA on the map

The block T sweater is not new anymore since my father Howard AhTye bought and paid for it in 1965 forty years ago. The block T stood or stands for the three years I was on the Oakland Technical High School tennis team and lettered each year while on the team or in other words I won more than half of my tennis matches for each year. The value of sweater has far greater sentimental value now by far than when I first received it. The high school still stands tall and solid like granite rock similar to Mt Rushmore where the three great American Presidents of The United States stand. Take a good hard look at the high school called Oakland Tech the support beams as the facade are massive in size as are the Roman Columns of the building in Rome. Now why all of a sudden do I mention a high school situated in a smaller town by far than the great city of San Francisco? It is because the Warriors a basketball team has risen into a winning position never before reached until now.

The Drought Is Over

I don't know how Jesus Christ felt when he learned that he had been betrayed by his followers or even if he had many friends left. But then again it is certainly absurd that he did not have any friends for he is one of the most noted God of Christianity so therefore my not knowing the full story of Christ it is my assumption he was never lonely. Sometimes humankind has a difficult problem seperating fact from fiction. My time and money has been spent planting sod in my yards despite the barrage of disapproval and ridicule for spending untold time or some three weeks with nothing accomplished. I have noted my accusers. And I have no friends. I have even been told that I lack the capabilty to landscape my own place. Do not disregard the weather here in California because this state of California is on the map. Rain is very important here but things are getting rather hot. It is in the freezing temperatures at night too cold to plant grass but I planted patches of grass where I thought it was needed. No I am not posting an article on landscaping as much as I am about community relationships. I may not have one good friend but at least I do not have any enemies at mind. This is just not a perfect day.
