Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / From bad to worse
« on: January 04, 2010, 10:46:06 PM »
Well Hell..... Here I go again.... This is an addition to my last post about being "Started Over At Age 44".

Things are progressively getting worse. It has been over 2 months now since I have brought home any money. My fiance is at the point that she can't afford to keep me around. It's so bad we are possibly going to lose our power due to lack of income.

So much for the better or worse ordeal in marriage vows. I am now contemplating going back to N.C. with my head tucked between my legs and beg my family for help. Right now it is really tough with no relief in sight.

To make matters worse I don't even have the cash to buy a bus ticket home. I guess that I will have to hitchhike and hope and pray that I don't get locked up for vagrancy.

I don't know what the future has in store for me or even if I will have a future. I wish I could just wake up and this life only be one big ugly nightmare.

To be honest the words "COMING HOME" almost give me a sense comfort at this point as I really don't want to feel these feelings.

Thank you guys for being there for me during the good times and now the bad.

Sincerely,
Botched

Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / Started Over Again at age 44
« on: December 28, 2009, 09:39:31 PM »
Hey guys..... Does anyone remember being started over???? Life has recently threw me a lead weight as I'm sinking fast.

This sucks ass in the biggest way!!!! Here recently I was arrested for a DUI.... The company I worked for was so helpful that they decided to let me go. I have been attempting to file for unemployment and gotten denied, CORPORATE USA MUST have taken lessons from STRAIGHT as they are trying to say I voluntarily resigned from my position since I did not report in for 3 days as I was in jail. I did advise them by email the day before I had to go to court letting them know the truth. I did not get the DUI on company time and was only in jail a few days.  :suicide:

It's stupid how the state of Florida is on their laws as they make it seem that the crime is worse than any capital offense. Now it makes it damn near impossible to get a job. And in these times that we are living in are lean.  :bs:

I now am having to resort to applying at jobs that are almost minimum wage and am getting no bites due to the fact I made soooo much more an hour. Don't get me wrong, I do know how to be humble, and this is not due to being in Straight but just dealing with life itself.  :ftard:

To be honest I am almost broken at this point. Almost ready to pack my shit, move back to the desolate place I moved from 13 years ago, and prove Straight right that I am going to be in JAIL, INSTITUTIONS, OR DEAD.

Don't get me wrong, not thinking of killing myself or any stupid shit like that, but am unsure what to do!!!! I am engaged to a beautiful woman who loves me. But the thing is me being out of work is KILLING our relationship.

I appologize to you guys for rambling.... LOL but I had to share my FEELINGS...  :eek:

Open Free for All / Kid's and ex's
« on: April 27, 2009, 10:47:22 AM »
This past weekend I had the great pleasure of giving my daughter away at her wedding. I had to go to Clearwater as that is where she currently lives.

When I first saw my daughter standing in her wedding dress I remembered holding her in one hand on the day she was born and was amazed at how she turned out.

For the most part It was a little weird sitting at the table with my ex-wife trying to buddy up to my fiancee. My fiancee tried to be polite but ended up having to avoid the hell out of her as the woman was very annoying.

I mean hell From the time my daughter was able to communicate directly with me I had no further need or purpose to deal with her and nor was I even curious about who she is with... It was my daughter's day and I can be civil but she was stretching my nerve.

While I stood there after the wedding for some ungodly reason I wanted to go hunt down S.I.B.S. and have the Straight Mobile come and collect a large portion of the wedding party. I could have gotten a huge referral fee for all of them.

Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / Healing from the conditioning
« on: April 10, 2009, 01:31:17 PM »
It has taken many years for some real healing to happen since I was in Straight some 20+ years ago. One of the biggest things for me was relationships. After being stripped away from my friends, my family, and my girlfriend, I was sent to a place where I could not sustain any kind of meaningful relationships.

During my stay at Straight, I can't remember all of the host homes I stayed in. I would get put in one I liked and would make an attempt to get close and the inevitable would always happen and there I would be sent to another, so it conditioned me to never try to get close to people even though that is one of the things I wanted more than anything. To love and be loved.

With my family, when I got back from Straight I was not the same person. When I went into Straight my relationship with my brothers and sister was pretty cool. I could drink a beer, hang out, and have some what a normal life. When I came back I was not the same person that I was when I went in. Something inside of me died. It made it easy for me to move hundreds of miles away from my family.

Straight was good at killing a person's self esteem as when I went to withdraw myself from the program, I was told by staff that no woman would want me and I would die on the streets or in prison. This affected me deeply as I would get involved with women, but I was never able to let myself get close.

Things have changed some in these areas of my life. I am able to sit and have a guilt free beer and not think I am a terrible person. I recently asked a very beautiful and sweet woman to marry me and she said yes. I have a good job. And I have a cool relationship with my siblings once again.

So in closing...... STRAIGHT was wrong about everything ....

Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / Weak Minds
« on: April 09, 2009, 09:44:52 AM »
I had an experience happen the other day I found very humorous. One of my co-workers is a whistler. Every day he comes in whistling the last song he heard on the radio, which is annoying for me anyway as he gets caught in a continious loop. :flame:

I decided that I was going to try to reprogram him on another song, so I walked by him and started singing something else. It was a success,  :seg:  he picked up that song and whistled it all day.  :nods:

Here is where the fun began  :seg:  as I started switching him up all day long, like a whistling jukebox. Finally early the next morning I started programming him again and figured I was going to mess with him at this point   ::poke::  , so I programmed him to the theme song for "Gilligans Island".    :rocker:

When it came time to go home he walked up behind me and asked me to never do that to him again.  :roflmao:

Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / Motivating
« on: April 08, 2009, 04:16:25 PM »
I was looking through some of the old post here and thinking about what people would think if they would see a grown man flapping his arms wildly like a chicken.

Just to set the scene, I work in a busy technical support call center where it is a basic cubicle city.

As a group of other techs walked past my cube to the lab I began my controlled experiment. I started flapping my arms wildly with my leg locked around the leg of the chair I was sitting in.

Much to my dismay the manager of the department was only a few steps behing the techs. When he saw me he started worrying that I was having a seizure. But as he approached me I stopped and began to laugh at myself as I was embarrassed. I told him I was getting prepared for the MOSH PIT.

"Sure" I bet he said to himself.

I just wonder if they are now going to call me into the HR office and have me submit a drug test.

 ::OMG::

Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / Mind Control
« on: March 18, 2009, 01:38:03 PM »
Over the past little while of looking at the tactics used by "Straight" and other like programs, then looking at how CIA experimented with MK Ultra. With the military they used MK Ultra to set triggers in peoples mind. Like wise with Straight, they would set certain triggers.

The government during the MK Ultra experiments would put men in training at top seceret facilities that would emulate POW camps and would abuse the men in many ways to break them down. One of their objectives was to find soldiers that could hang on to that one piece of humanity. All of the men are trained to attempt to escape, but few ever could. After a period of time most men would lose their minds and were able to be programmed to do whatever they were told to do.

With the Straight program this same type of mental conditioning ["BrainWashing"] was put to work on kids as the military found the tactics to work on full grown fighting men.

People like Mel and Betty Sembler decided to use the tactics minus the drugs and got very adverse effects. Some of the weaker minded people who the programming took on would become their little show and tell for the parents to see. For the others it was like the old saying goes"You have to break some eggs to make an omlet."

The way I see it is that Mel and Betty were in bed with the government on the training and they decided it would put a dollar in their pocket as well.

Think about it for yourself.

Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / Let's have a song
« on: December 29, 2008, 07:32:26 PM »
Now I have full belief that we all remember the words so lets all sing along. and I want the hand motions with it or your shit will be blown away after "Open Meeting" !!!!!

We are going to sing...... "We are a promise"


I am a promise, I am a possibility

I am a promise with a capital P

I am a great big bundle of potentiality

And I am learning to hear God's voice

And I am trying to make the right choice.

I am a promise to be anything that God wants me to be.




(Note to readers: I do not like this song, did'nt want to learn it, and I am stuck with it after a couple decades.)

Straight, Inc. and Derivatives / Growing Together
« on: December 22, 2007, 04:09:36 PM »
Ok guys..... Here is the skinny on Growing Together.

I went by the building at 1000 Lake Ave in Lake Worth to get a look at the place to see if in fact it was in operation, and well they have either closed or moved. While walking around the shit-pit of the building, it left me wondering what parent in their right mind would have sent their kid to that hell hole.

Truth be known it was right behind the court house.... Can you believe it???? Abuse happening right across the street from the court house!!!!! Tell me justice isn't blind or they put money in someone's pocket.

I will go back up this weekend and take some pictures.
