A Small Portion Of Some Of The Acknowledgements To Be Contained In My Book
*This is just but a few of the acknowledgements to be contained in the acknowledgements of the upcoming book I am currently working on, there are many more than just these, most of which will be added as well further elaboration on some that will be posted here on an ongoing basis. If you are sure you were to be in this area but don't see a mention yet don't be alarmed please, there is a method to my madness I swear!
Sandra Wacker, Thank you for being everything you are, including so many things that no one ever has to be and almost no one that I have or ever will meet could ever become. Through your selfless, gracious love, and soft warming touch to my once hardened cold heart, as well as the extension of your big beautiful heart and so much more that I will keep reserved for myself only as well as the memory that will forever be tattooed on my soul, you guided me through the darkest of days, drunkest of nights and sobered me by warming heart with just a smile to start followed by the extension of an unsurpassed friendship guiding me to the area of my life in which you revealed the potential within me, showing me that one day I, like yourself have the ability to shine. Never will I shine as bright as the pure heart you possess as well as extended to me, nor will I forget the heat radiated from it that allowed me life, as well as gave me inspiration to pursue becoming a good man, as well as the inspiration to do right by others as often as I can. I like anyone that has ever encountered you for any amount of time at any level am blessed for having known you. Thank you for the motivation to be me as well as everything we will forever share even in absence. I owe so much for everything you have done to, for, and with me. Forever I am indebted to you and to God for putting us together. As I have said before I dedicate every good deed in my life to you, I dedicate this book to you and to the memories we share! Sandra? BLAH!!!! No one will, nor needs to ever understand that nor will anyone (aside from us) ever understand when I say “Hi dog!” Be even a fraction of how good you are to me, to yourself and dog and I promise you that life will be eternal comfort!
Lyn, “Punk” says it all yeah? Lyn through the turbulence we still experience I still find moments in which I feel as though I am the art, that with each brush of your beautifully artistic soul, you brought me to feel I was as you crafted your arts! You captured me in a light and even through my head strong defiance to look, you showed me what it looked like when the lights were on, and much to my aghast you stayed while the lights were on as well as when they were off. You cared for me showing time and again that yes you truly were my best friend. Whether it was getting me emergency health care when I so needed it, or, when you ran away from the restaurant when you know I was going to make an absurd scene in order to embarrass your son, standing laughing in a department store when I emerged from a dressing room with a little girls shirt on making it a point to try to be feminine quite loudly, or capturing a moment in many pictures when I was caught in a moment not realizing I had my guard down! Hey Punk…Gll gill ge food gne gay gn gvery grea gf gife!
Phil Zellman, After many a’ moons passing without any contact of any sort I decided to message you and see how life at that point had turned out for you and how things were going. I was more than sincerely happy to hear all that had taken place in order to become the person you stated you had become, more pleasing was to actually witness it upon moving back to town and see that you had humbly understated it in the beginning. After a few beers and heading to the pub with a mind riddled with worry about how things would play out for me that night as a result of my past reputation with officials in that town, I was gently eased back into my reality with the reassurance that you had become the man you are today! Thus, becoming a role model for me in a positive way as well as a motivating factor to continue keeping my sights set on becoming the good person I knew I could become in an honest fashion. For the couple nights which I had nowhere to go, you selflessly offered a spot on your couch until morning allowing me a couple nights refuge from the disaster I was creating, enabling me to get back on track. You offered solid words of advice to me as well as great suggestions and treated me as a brother, further encouraging me to live “the good life”. Thank you Phil for staying true to yourself as well as your family, proving anything is a possibility, through your words and the life you lead!
Cia Collins, Although the thrilling, suspense filled roller coaster it seems we found ourselves on, fell off the track well before the ride should have finished, I cannot ignore the part of my life that we boarded that roller coaster first in random conversation, followed by a distaste for one another that stretched for longer than the relationship we eventually came to share. Cia you showed me things I needed to see, experience things I never desired however, came to long for. We traveled a road that brought me north of my home to start a life with you that for our own reasons “went south” Although we will never likely communicate on any level, I still owe you gratitude for everything you and I went through, as well as the things we didn’t have opportunity to go through. Thank you of course for “The best ten bucks I ever spent!” The days behind in which you were included will live on in that “ten bucks” through Awwiwaa!

Below are a few more of the acknowledgements owed I am not finished with them yet but I must get as much done as I can whenever I can have any serene moment, as per usual everything has been all over hells half acre the last few days and I have neglected (yet again) priorities in an effort to maintain a somewhat peaceful life, all of this will be outlined in the current section I am working on and making it a point to complete asap!
Lisa Hartung, LH, I am forever grateful for the support and encouragement you bestowed on me in every area of my life, be it my comedy, the sentiments expressed at the worst moments I found myself in such as the passing of members of my family, the beginning as well as the ending of relationships on various levels, the perseverance you possessed in remaining head strong in making a reality the things we had hoped to make a reality, the time spent together in Saskatchewan as a result of your rescuing me when you drove to Alberta to get me out of a situation that on the surface seemed far less than humane. Opening your heart and home to me and providing for me the things need not be provided by anyone was a wonderful gesture. The memory etched in my mind stemming from the evening in which I performed a small portion of my comedy resulting in me looking through the lights and seeing the pride on your face coupled with the sound of your laughter will forever remain I remain forever grateful for you and the love you extended and wish you well always! Thank you LH!
Pattie Sharkey, Pattie we both know the position I took and remained adamant in regards to signing up for an account on Facebook, much the same we both know as I am sure you recall the dismay contained within me when you called me on the evening that resulted in you giving me instructions on how to access the account you had created for me despite my many denied requests. If it were not for that fateful gesture on your behalf I would not be sitting where I am today nor would I be typing any of what I am typing as I would be without the experiences I write about and do not know what life would have been like for the last four (plus) years. I’m not sure what is going on with you these days but as always I wish you well, and although itcan be said a lot of grief could have been avoided had I not partaken in Facebook activities, much the same can be said for the good times and events I experienced. Although I still have mixed feelings on the entire situation, I thank you for calling me that evening to be the jerk you set out to be and get a laugh at my expense. Without doing what you have done as well as maintaining our friendship in my extended absences, this book would not be possible.
Thank You P.P. Can I get you some apples?
Angela Black, I owe you more than I owe myself at times Ange. Although we faced many awkward/uncomfortable moments as well as the feuds we found ourselves in as a result of the personalities within us, I will forever love you Ange, you are the best Geek in the world I couldn’t ask for a better experience with any Geek. From losing contact over 17 years ago during the early morning hours upon my incarceration, to an amazingly quick reuniting through the dreadful social platform that caused so much grief in our friendship despite being the reason we have a friendship, to a love that far exceeds the miles traveled upon my “vanishing” without warning in the middle of the night, to so much more including. Waking the morning after I returned to St Thomas to you shouting at my hung over foolish self for attending an establishment, that established my fate for the evening, costing me $85 and a look of dismay on your face whilst you let me have it before consciousness set in, bringing about my next acknowledgement.
I love you Geek!
Dave Langhor, Bro we really went through the grinder yeah? From a quick friend request, to a multitude of messages to your arrival in Hamilton in order that I move back to skin town to a drunken fight with brass knuckles to moving to London without correspondence to wondering yet again, how things are going in life for you. I appreciate the rental of the upper portion of your home, the laughing and carrying on in ways that probably should have gotten the both of us killed or, at the very least beaten up real bad. The extensions offered on your behalf far surpass any extension expected by an old friend from high school and drinking buddy from blurry days in which we used to get Steve S. so bloody drunk and send him home on his bike. Dave all that was offered and given by yourself and your family is very much appreciated, the experiences (many of which we say sucked but laugh about like the intelligently impaired) add so much substance to the last few years and the fact that we are still able to refer to each other as friends, and bros speaks volumes. In all you do Dave I wish you the best of everything, and am proud of where you are at right now, despite getting there as I left for a few month back home.
Thanks for everything Dave!
Norma Epilon, NJ, you are an incredibly persistent woman with perseverance that yes got on my nerves as you recall, at this point in my life I and glad we went through it though. Your overwhelming support in every area of my life has fed me on many a dark night! Hearing your concerns for me and the request for me to be safe in what I do, your pleas for me to stop partaking in the unhealthy activities I was, and the “I love you(s)”, that got me through some incredibly tough times made things seem so much less troubling than they actually were. I miss the laughter we were able to share while we were constants in each other’s lives, I miss hearing fantastic in the wee hours of the morning over the telephone during a one hundred and ninety minute telephone call when I had to work in the morning. Every compliment you have ever given me still burns in my mind as well as the hell you gave me for denying they were true. NJ I love you tons and thank you for every encouraging word and sentiment.
