Pity the newly minted grandparents, who can’t hug their new grandbabies.
It would be interesting to learn who is paying for all the bottles and bricks. Peaceful protesters don’t carry bricks. Convicted looters should be sentenced to pay for, and clean up their mess. Someone once said that all it takes for evil to succeed, is for good people to do nothing.

About the book:
Imagine having the ability to touch someone for a few seconds and persuade that person to see things your way. Well, that’s exactly what a young kid from Brooklyn discovered when he was nine years old. This story chronicles his journey from what would most like have been a life at a menial job in a gas station to an improbable career in radio broadcasting. Along the way, he meets interesting characters including the pre cursor to Mrs. Doubtfire, a dazzling cheerleader, becomes like a son to the governor of Texas, and meets the love of his life. This is a rags to riches story with a most surprising ending. And, it could only have happened in America.

These sayings in this second volume are terrific conversation starters, as well as thought provokers. They reflect the mind of “Joe Roberts” Caputo which can, in turn, be mischievous, quirky, or deadly serious. With a perspective that spans more than 80 years, Joe has been a keen observer of the human condition. He comfortably has one foot in history, and the other in today’s high tech world. Because they are so brief, and there is no plot to worry about, you can easily read several of these in less than two minutes. Here is hoping you get as much pleasure in reading them as Joe did in composing them.
