Never a dull moment with Trump as Potus


One must admit there is never a dull moment with Donald J. Trump as President.


Whether it's the Russian election conspiracy, choosing whom he speaks to in the media and hating on fake news, the recent Obama wiretapping theory or that his crowds at the inauguration were larger than Obama's--the list is endless... 

Does the President do this to distract the media and Americans from other business he is doing, or does he believe America just loves a great reality show and he has brought it to the forefront of the White-house?


Many think a reality show should not be in the confines of the  White-house. There has always been a reality show in the White-house, just not one with as great of ratings as the present one.

Politics, news, acting, are all about ratings. President Trump is the only one whom doesn't lie about ratings and actually tells it like it is.  How much of what he says may seem like fluff but in actuality is true?

 I believe many of the things the frantic left and media are freaking out on and believing that Trump has lost his mind will wind up to be true, just wait and see.


And the winner for this years best reality show is, drum roll--- Donald J.Trump!

Remember, he who laughs last, laughs best! 
Rosen believes the divided
America will heal. The haters will
after time see that Trump truly
created jobs and made America safer.
Give him time!

"What are those yellow spots on my eyes..? 'Judith Whitehead' (Inspiration Friday)

Judith Whitehead lives in Amherst New York
( A suburb of Buffalo, N.Y.)
 and has worked in the ophthalmology
 field of medicine for nearly 40 years

What are those yellow spots on my eyes

Many patients come into our office for a routine eye examination  and  have noticed a “finding” on their eyes.

  They notice a painless raised area on either side of their iris (the colored part) and want some answers.

More so, in hot climates  in the world especially near the equator,  people are more prone to  developing what are called "pinguecula".

 The small raised yellowish areas that develop on the white part of the eye,  the sclera , are caused from UV and sun exposure.   Also people that spend a great deal of time in the sun without eye protection,  may develop the same findings.   

Pinguecula  by themselves, are not dangerous and if bothersome, may be removed.  They can become enlarged and irritated at times and may  become  unsightly.  They do  not carry   a   serious  diagnosis and can be treated with prescription eye drops to calm them if red and irritated.


If removed surgically, the eye will be sore for a short time and can be soothed with drops.  The surgical procedure is usually done in an out patient setting  under a local anesthetic. 

The growths  may return some day, especially if one returns to worshiping the sun again.

"An Unexpected Prescription..." 'Chester "Unc" Lau' (Source of comedy relief)

Dakinetalk's favorite Uncle (Chester Lau)
Unc's really passionate about creating
 a National day To Help US Veterans
  and  their families for their risks
 and sacrifices to keep America FREE . 
'Unc' currently resides on the Hawai'ian Island of Oahu. 
He is a retired cinematographer,
 and  enjoys giving the politicians a bad time...

 An Unexpected Prescription 

 One day, a little old lady went to see Dr. Rosen on Kapaa ,Hawaii. 

                                                                            
The kindly doctor asked her, "What seems to be the problem, dear ?" 

 She said, "Doctor, I have this problem with gas, but it really doesn't bother me too much. 


"My farts never smell, and are always silent. 
                                                                       
"As a matter of fact, I've farted at least 20 times since I've been here in your office. You didn't know I was farting because they don't smell and are silent."

The doctor said, "I see. Take these pills and come back to see me next week."
The next week, the little old lady returned for her follow-up appointment. 

"Doctor," she said, "I don't know what you gave me, but now my farts, although still silent, stink terribly..."


The doctor said: "Good ! Now that we've cleared up your sinuses, let's work on your hearing."
                                              
 From :Unc C ==
Remember,
If you haven't got a smile on your face
And laughter in your heart,     
Then you are just an old sour puss
Ha ha ha,

Trump's buyers remorse..." 'James "Kimo" Rosen' (Kimo' world #174)

James "Kimo" Rosen is a retired professional photographer
 and amongst other things lived in a tent outdoors for 7 years.
Rosen currently resides on the tropical island of Kaua'i
with his best friend and spiritual adviser Ivanka Da Dog!



Kimo's world's #174~Blog #1906
Editors note,

A big controversy this past week when the Democrats freaked out when counselor to the President, Kellyanne Conway was photographed kneeling on a coach in the white-house. Please watch to find out the reason;
https://www.facebook.com/An0malyMusic/videos/1466789753331636/

Yet nobody ever freaked when Obama relaxed in the white-house
 with his feet on his desk in the oval office?







Trump's buyers  remorse



I am back to blogging about Trump. Last week I blogged about the Kauai dairy and when I checked my  blog administration page the  view numbers were drastically down.

I am  now  more committed than ever to making my Monday Kimo's world blogs about "The Donald."  I've said it before, his haters love to read all they can and his fans love to read all they can.  Even Trump loves to read about himself! So here I go again...

Buyers remorse? How many Trump supporters are suffering from buyers remorse or regret? How many people voted for "The Donald" and are now wishing they had voted for Hillary?


Would the country be in the same divide if Hillary had won the Presidency? I wake up every morning and look to Twitter to see whom Trump has offended or what Reince Priebus, Kellyanne Conway or Sean Spicer need to do to patch up on what Trump may had said while America was sleeping. The Good news is with Trump's recent speech to congress, many are calling it one of the best Presidential speeches ever.


I appreciate that Trump wants to make America great,and bring manufacturing back to the US and keep corporations from moving to foreign countries. I even agree on keeping America safe with stricter immigration laws.

I understand some Americans having buyers remorse?They just don't get it. People constantly ask me if I have buyers remorse? No. I believe I understand the President.


The President is an alpha male and a macho man. He is not a politically correct person and says what's on his mind. He will not compliment someone if he doesn't  believe what he is saying. He is not  like Eddie Haskell from the old "Leave it to Beaver" show and will not tell Mrs.Cleaver how beautiful she looks unless she really looks gorgeous!


Our President is like a great surgeon with a terrible bedside manner, but none the less  saves lives. However after his last speech to congress his bedside manner is definitely improving!

"Wiretap" is another story.This past Saturday Trump alleged that President Obama tapped his phone at Trump Tower during the November election. Do I believe the allegations? Put it this way, I do not trust any politician. Like the old joke, how do you know when a politician is lying? When his or her lips move. Hence the reason so many voted to make America great again and put Trump a non politician in the White-house.

I find the people who can't stop criticizing  and talking Trump are actually infatuated with him.

Basic human psychology teaches us that the person whom constantly talks and ridicules someone in essence truly deep inside admires that person.


So, all you Trump haters,
fess up! The truth will set you free!

No remorse here!
Rosen believes the divided
America will heal. The haters will
after time see that Trump truly
created jobs and made America safer.
Give him time!

"A Chinese woman goes to the Psychic..." 'Ivanka Da Dog' (Source of comedy relief)

Ivanka Da Dog is a life long resident of Hawaii.
Ivanka can be seen cruising Kapa'a town
with her best friend James "Kimo" Rosen!
Hope you smile or laugh after reading this!


 A Chinese woman goes to the Psychic

A Chinese woman went to the local psychic in hopes of contacting her dearly departed grandmother.


The psychic's eyelids begin fluttering, her voice begins warbling, her hands float up above the table, and she begins moaning.
Eventually, a coherent voice emanates, saying, "Granddaughter? Are you there?"

The customer, wide-eyed and on the edge of her seat, responds, "Grandma? Is that you?"

"Yes granddaughter, it's me."
"It's really, really you, Grandma?", the woman repeats.
"Yes, it's really me, granddaughter."

The woman looks puzzled, "You're sure it's you, Grandma?"
"Yes, granddaughter, I'm sure it's me."




The woman pauses a moment, "Grandma, I have just one question for you."

"Anything, my child."
"When did you learn to speak English?"

Dairy and Seed companies may be a perfect marriage..?" 'James "Kimo" Rosen' (Kimo's world)

Kimo's world's #173~Blog #1904
This blog also appeared as an opinion article in the 02-22-17 edition
of the Kaua'i Garden Island news;

Editors note,
Hawaii Dairy Farms, a proposed 699-cow operation on the island of Kauai being funded by eBay billionaire founder Pierre Omidyar’s Honolulu investment firm Ulupono Initiative, could be operational by 2018.

The project’s draft environmental impact statement, which was recently released, said the total development costs of the South Shore dairy farm could total $9.5 million to $11.5 million. Construction could start in 2017.

Then just last Tuesday on February 21, 2017, Hawaii Dairy Farms took a step back in its plan to put a dairy on Kauai by withdrawing its Final Environmental Impact Statement from state consideration on Tuesday.http://thegardenisland.com/news/local/hawaii-dairy-farms-withdraws-feis-from-state-consideration/article_098638dc-f8ac-11e6-9289-cb0bb27672e4.html

Kauai diary has been one the biggest controversies on Kauai the past few years. Many are up in arms because the location and  is only a few miles from the major tourism resorts and fear of the smell is alarming residents.

Dairy and Seed companies may be a perfect marriage?

 This is not fake news, I fact checked and fact checked again on all major search engines.

The Garden Island published  on February 21 an article titled, "Sanctuary holds 7 cows saved from slaughter to promote peace."  This got me thinking on how the controversial dairy could combine energies with our local seed companies and make a negative a great positive!


If you did not read the article the article goes on to say that,"Cows eat grass and the cow dung is very good for the earth. It protects  the top soil, and the manure can be used to feed the corn and other plants.

The manure has  antibacterial properties. In India it's mixed with water and used as a floor cleanser and the cow urine is a natural way to repel insects from plants.

Well?   Does anyone else see a perfect marriage? Seed companies and  the dairy unite to a positive for the Garden island?


The cow dung can fertilize the corn and other plants and the urine could be collected and used  to keep insects off the plants in lieu of the chemical fertilizers? Plus a new industry of a floor cleanser could be invented from collection of the cow dung thus creating a way to eliminate the smell that everyone is so worried about?  

The dairy could then hire people to collect the dung and has another department that makes the dung into floor cleansers. If the dairy uses my idea I would like to be compensated for saving their ʻōkoles! It's time to be creative and start thinking outside the box instead of saying NO to every new idea and project that comes way to Kauai. 


Mahalo Councilman Kawakami for standing for a sustainable and an  independent Garden Island. How do the other council members stand on this issue? Inquiring minds would like to know?

Maybe just maybe this dairy project can work for the good of all. 

There, I made it thorough an opinion letter with speaking of Donald Trump! ;-)

" Watching the world go by from my front porch..." 'Judith Whitehead' (Inspiration Friday)

Judith Whitehead lives in Amherst New York
( A suburb of Buffalo, N.Y.)
 and has worked in the ophthalmology
 field of medicine for nearly 40 years

Watching the world go by from my front porch



Several years ago we had the opportunity to build our own home; having owned two homes prior, we knew exactly what we did, and did not like about them.
Judy enjoying the world  by her
front front porch. In Hawaii
we say "Lanai."
The one thing we promised ourselves if 
possible was to add a large front porch across the front of our home. It turned out to be the best thing
we have loved about our home.


Somehow sitting on a front covered porch is the best way to relax and watch the world go by. It's also a great way to meet the neighbors and people walking the neighborhood especially if you are the newbies on the block. 

No matter what the whether is, rainy, chilly etc, as long as it isn't too cold, it's a perfect way to unwind after a long day at work. It also seems to be a way to beckon the strolling people over for a chat. 

I find that each change of season gives me an excuse to find my creative self, and decorate with the most whimsical decorations that adorn the railings, stairs and tables. In the Fall, I can't wait until the little trick or treaters come to see the Halloween trappings and reach for their candy treat in my “singing box of spells” that holds the candy. Even if it's a cold night, I use battery lights that won't blow out on the sketchy nights for my lanterns. Hanging corn stalks provide color on the posts – that is until the squirrels find their way in and make a midnight snack of them.


As winter approaches, a new set of colorful lights are strung along the borders and decorations such as an old wooden sled and bows that align with the porch to bring out the spirit of the season.

Somehow, a cup of Joe tastes 100% better when sipped outside on the porch, especially if a little Baileys tops it off. On a clear night we sit and watch the sun set and feel at peace.

Most of our neighbors have built a back yard patio and never seem to sit out there for very long. They dash out to cook something on the grill and return in doors soon after wards.

 We have a small setup out the back door but never seem to use it either. I guess we are just too curious to watch the world go by right in front of our faces.
