Jjba characters in a coming of age movie with their s/o
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Summary: What if you and (insert jjba character) are in a coming of age movie? What would happen in the movie, how would you interact?  Header photo: Haruiro astronaut Pairings: Joestars x s/o
Jonathan Joestar  ── Bleachers ♡ You’ll probably be in a boarding school in the 1960s in england. ♡ He is the star student and you’re probably just a normie and you wouldn’t want to associate yourself with him and you just want to live a peaceful life ♡ You’ll be asked to assist the rugby team in exchange for some grades and you couldn’t deny it so you agreed with your teacher and you two had a deal. Your job is simple, all you need to do is just to be in charge of the attendance and be the coach’s spokesman if he’s busy and it wasn’t that bad. ♡ You are also a supervisor whenever the coach is not around and you overall just support everyone just like an assistant. They need water? you’ll get some for the whole team, etc. ♡ Jonathan will honestly start developing feelings for you, and you to him, he starts helping you with your homework on the bleachers and you two will go anywhere together, and you’ll mostly be the one to rebel and sneak out at night to hang out with him and he’d usually feel scared to skip but he didnt let his fear take over him and he just followed you. ♡ The conflict is probably the fact that you witnessed a girl confessing to him near a fountain within school grounds, it kinda broke your heart and lost your motivation to assist the team yet you still continued. ♡ Your ending is probably depressing because he really likes this girl who confessed to him(probably Erina) so you’re left in the shadow and moreover it’s hard to skip and rebel with him when he prioritizes his girlfriend all the time. ♡ Your iconic scene with him is probably him helping you on the bleachers. Joseph Joestar  ──Coward ♡ It’ll be 2000s in america as well probably and this movie will be a enemies to lovers thing huehue.  ♡ You and Joseph hate each other and the whole school knew that and no one ever knew why, maybe because the first day you went to school you accidentally bumped to him and made your food go over him which made him held a grudge on you but at the same time flirt with you? Or make odd statements which just annoys you. ♡ You don’t take him seriously, you take him as a playboy so his flirts wouldn’t affect you at all and it’s not like you’ll take the praises that came out of that brunette’s mouth. ♡ It all changed when obviously you two got assigned in a project that requires the both of you to go to each other’s houses and at first you two argued a lot but you two started thinking that maybe it’s not that bad. ♡ The conflict is probably the fact that this guy likes another girl and you start getting confused with your emotions everytime he interacts with his girl crush, you really feel jealous but you’re still in denial. ♡ He also has feelings for you honestly but since he knew you practically hated so he knew he had NO chance which is why he just shooed his feelings away for you even though he genuinely really liked you.   ♡ You get into a rivalary with the girl he liked which led to the two of you arguing publicly and you probably got embarrassed since she revealed to everyone that you liked Joseph. ♡ Joseph actually felt really happy to hear this and the movie ends with the two of you dating but being really good friends as well. ♡ Your iconic scene with him is both of you lying down on his bed while looking at the ceiling and talking about stories you two experienced. Jotaro Kujo  ──Not that necessary ♡ The setting would probably be somewhere in the 1990s in america in a tiny town somewhere. ♡ Jotaro never really had a permanent home and by this he constantly moved town to town, which means he never really got close with anyone else in his schools and he’d prefer it that way that he wont just get close to anyone ♡ Though he continues being in arguments and physical fights and one of the fights got him in detention with you, now you in the other hand always get in detention for your little pranks to the teachers or skipping and getting caught, let’s just say that in this movie you’re not really the best student and you didn’t really care moreover mind, but when you saw Jotaro you got a vibe you two will get along. ♡ Since you two were the only ones in the classroom you whisper him to follow you as you two escape the window, he’ll probably groan or grunt at you at first but he’ll eventually follow you to get out of detention without using the front door. ♡ You two escape outside the window and run to a forest nearby probably, he’s not much of a talker so you did the talking for him most of the time, you two will do a lot of things in this movie, such as climbing rooftops of houses or going to playgrounds while talking or just bike around the neighbourhood, getting ice cream. ♡ The conflict here is that he’ll be moving soon and it’s hard for the both of you to be separated, since he doesnt’ want you to get hurt his immature 17 year old self would probably tell you that he doesn’t want to be friends or something that hurts, like “I never liked you as a friend anyways”, “ I just used you.” ♡ You would be heartbroken and deep inside you didn’t know why he would randomly tell these things to you and you would distance yourself from him and school generally that’s how much it affected your friendship. ♡ The ending would probably be upsetting and sad with you being left in the town and with Jotaro leaving, he really thought that he could make you leave him by insulting you but it just made you sad instead of being mad at him honestly. ♡ Though the epilogue would probably give the audiences hope since you two will bump to each other 8 years later as adults. ♡ Your iconic scene with him is probably walking to the forest and you doing the talking for him. Josuke Higashikata  ──It started at the Diner  ♡ The setting would probably be in the 50s in a 50s diner in america.  ♡ You were a teenage regular customer there probably a loner and perfect student who’s got everything and is technically bored of life ♡ Everything changed when a bunch of deliquents sat on a table across yours and one of them got your attention the most, he probably saw you staring and you would feel embarrassed honestly and you will hesitate talking to him. ♡ You’ll only probably meet him there but you’ll eventually find him in the town and encounter him everywhere but you still hesitate to talk to him but you two started to talk and there was instant connection. ♡ The iconic scenes you would have with him is probably talking to him in a diner. ♡ The movie would probably also show about your boring life becoming more interesting as you rebel with him, the movie will show the message that teenagers should have fun while they can especially when they are still in their childhood, and that you should never miss the opportunity of meeting new people. ♡ The conflict in the movie is probably your school and your parents and their expectations and the fear that Josuke will be bored of you the more you focus on your education than friends and that he’ll eventually leave you, and how simple things in your life can easily block you from hanging out with him. ♡ The ending would probably be sweet and happy with the two of you spending your whole school year and summer bonding with each other, probably a open ending for the audience to decide. Giorno Giovanna ──Oh to see without my eyes ♡ Two of you are two teenagers in nothern italy which means you’re in a more grassy parts of italy, and you are in a wealthy family. The setting is 80s-90s italy ♡ He honestly goes to the same highschool as you  and he was the new student probably. Your movie with him is probably wholesome and calming and peaceful. ♡ You always like going on the waters and beaches and he would just watch splashing water around and swimming. You two enjoy hanging out at nighttime the most, you would run around the town laughing and biking around near the forest and you would have midnight picnics where you would make snacks for the both of you. ♡ It’s instant connection, the day you met you two were already connected and already friends and it stayed until this day. You two eventually also get feelings for each other honestly as you guys hangout everyday to entertain yourselves. He was kind and polite moreover a gentleman ♡ The conflict is that he has a dream, that he wants to becoming a don of a mafia and you couldn’t stop him and instead you just wholeheartedly supported him till he eventually had to leave you to persue his dream, he went missing and missed a lot of school days because of this. ♡ The ending is sad you two never saw each other again and he intentionally did this because he didnt want you to be in danger ♡ Your iconic scene with him is probably you walking on the shore of the ocean with him by your side as you two talk away as you feel the cold touch of the water touching your bare feet as he stays dry on the sand.

04/23/2021 DAB Transcript
Judges 1:1-2:9, Luke 21:29-22:13, Psalms 90:1-91:16, Proverbs 13:24-25
Today is the 23rd day of April welcome to the Daily Audio Bible I am Brian, and it is a pleasure and a joy to come around the Global Campfire together and just find our place, do what we do, exhale, settle in to the safe oasis that we create for ourselves as God's word comes washing into our lives. So, it is a pleasure and joy to be here with you today. And we’re turning the page. We’re actually moving into some new territory in the Old Testament. We conclude the book of Joshua yesterday which leads us to the…well….to the first chapter of the book of Judges.
Introduction to the book of Judges:
And judges is what comes next. We can think from the title of Judges that it's a big book of judgment, right? Like, this is one of those books in the Bible where you don’t want to read it because it’s nothing but judgment. That's…that's what's going on here. Let's, since we’re moving into new territory, let’s just really briefly look back at where we've been. We met Abram. We saw him become Abraham. Abraham's story is essentially the origin story of the Hebrew people. So, Abraham and then the generation of Isaac and the generation of Jacob. Jacob being Abraham's grandson. Jacob has a couple of wives and a couple of concubines thrown into the mix and there's 12 children born. And we remember all that between Rachel and Leah, the battle of the sisters over the children. And these children, they're going to grow up and become tribes. I mean they will…like they will start tribes. Jacob's name is changed to Israel. And, so, his children are the children of Israel. One of those kids was named Joseph and we followed a long path with Joseph being trafficked into slavery and ending up in Egypt. And over the course of time ending up second-in-command in Egypt when a famine comes that reunites the family. They thought Joseph was dead. Jacob thought his son was long dead, but they are reunited in life, which is how the children of Israel made it to Egypt. And then after Joseph dies, they flourish in the land of Egypt and become a very populous mighty people, but they are enslaved by the Egyptians. So, four centuries later, so they’re in slavery for 400 years. That's quite a long time to establish the status quo, this is when we meet the man, Moses. Moses, we met in a basket in the river and Pharaoh's daughter raises him then he has to flee because he kills an Egyptian. He gets married in the wilderness then he sees a burning Bush that is not consumed, and he meets with God and God sends him back to set the people free. Moses wants nothing to do with it but in the end, he obeys, and Moses and his brother Aaron lead the people. And that's when we go through all of the plagues and the Exodus from Egypt. And then they began their wilderness journey. And it was supposed to be a lot shorter than it ended up being. But they got to the very very precipice of entering into the promised land and the spies came back and said, “we can’t do it. There's giants in the land. It's…it's a great land but we can't win”, which doomed an entire generation to continue to learn the message of the wilderness. And we spoke a lot about our own…our own wilderness journeys as we wandered in the wilderness with the children of Israel. Then they made it to the banks of the Jordan River. There's all kinds of stuff that happened in between there, we remember, but then Moses got all the people together and he gave them three discourses, three speeches, that comprise the book of Deuteronomy, the things that Moses's needs the people to know and that he needs to know that he said out loud before he dies. And, so, they listened to that and then Moses died, became a part of history. Joshua takes the leadership over Israel, leads the people across the Jordan River. The first city of conquest is Jericho. We remember all of this and then they are at war basically. All of the different tribes and kings of the land, they attack Israel, and Israel keeps winning and they begin to settle the land. Then Joshua brings everybody back together at Shechem and that's where these famous words, “as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord” come from. And the people say they will serve the Lord. They…they renew the covenant and Joshua tells them, “you are a witness…your lives are…are a witness against you if you don't obey this. That's what brings us to judges. So, we will begin the book of Judges and realize that judges were what came next in the leadership of Israel. They had had a profit in Moses lead them. They had a profit and Joshua lead them. Once they're gone and all of the generation that knew them died off, then there's an emerging generation that doesn't know exactly what to do. They are all tribes doing whatever seems right in their own eyes. And we will begin to see that some of the things that they're doing that they think is right in their own eyes isn't and will see a slide beginning to happen. And, as the people become oppressed, they cry out to God and a judge rises up to lead the people. And some of these judges are our pious and committed to God and some of these judges have some strange ways of doing things but God uses them in this time. So, as we read the book of Judges, we will be passing through several centuries of time. The book of Judges sort of covers an in between period. So, Moses and Joshua are gone, and then there's the period of the judges, which will lead us to the period of the monarchy. Like, when the period of the judges reaches its end, the people are going to want a king. They don’t want a judge anymore, they don’t want a prophet, they want a king. So, it won’t be too long after we conclude the book of Judges that we will be entering into that, that time of the monarchy of ancient Israel. So, that's kind of the lay of the land. That's where we've come from, that's how we got here to page 1 of the book of Judges. So, let's dive in. We’re reading from the New Living Translation this week. Judges chapter 1 verse 1 through 2 verse 9.
Prayer:
Father we thank You for Your word. We thank You bringing us into this new territory in the book of Judges. Holy Spirit come. Plant the words of the Scriptures into our lives. Allow them to till the soil and plant good fruit, that the harvest may be bountiful, the fruit of the spirit in our lives may be bountiful. Help us to see ourselves in these stories. Help them to be mirrors into our own souls into the motives and the brokenness in our own lives. And even as we begin to turn into the passion narrative in the gospel of Luke, even as we've read of the preparations for this last meal before suffering and the plot to betray You, our Lord, we enter the story once again, the story of a love so profound that it has no equal, a love that is drawn us to it like a moth to a flame. And, so, as we watch this story unfold again Holy Spirit come and help us to enter into it with a profound amount of gratitude. We pray this in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

Community Prayer and Praise:
My name is Darla from Pennsylvania this is my first time calling. I just wanted to reach out to the man. I was listening on April 16th and the man said that he felt like he wasn't even worthy or able to be helpful or something along those lines and my heart just kind of sank because I know…I know how that feels and I just wanted to let you know that I'm praying for you in Jesus’ name.
Hi Daily Audio Bible this is Alobia from New Mexico this is my first time ever reading with you guys and so far, it has been a fantastic time. I'm really happy that I'm here. I'm happy that I found you guys. But this is my first time ever doing this kind of thing, but I do want to ask for some prayers if it's not too much. I am struggling with my relationship. He's not equally yoked with me and I recently got back into my religion and I stopped doing the things that I wasn't supposed to be doing and our relationship changed a lot and we got through it a little bit but now he proposed, and I'm just confused. I don't know where to go. I don't know what to do anymore. I…I wanna be with this person but I know I shouldn't be with him when we're not equally yoked. But at the same time, I can't bring myself to like break-up with him. This might seem like something that's not really important, but I've been dating this person for three years and I'm confused and I'm not sure what to do. I've been praying about it, but I would like to hear from other people too. But I also want to give thanks for this community. I'm not sure if a lot of people will hear it. Well, we'll see, but I hope that you guys can pray for me and pray for my situation. But thank you. I'm sending my love out to all of you and have a good rest of your day.
Good afternoon DAB family God bless you all. I don't know your name I think you said Ramona or Mona from South Cali. You're 32 years old single mom of an 8-year-old boy with stage four kidney failure. You are on dialysis three times a week; 31 surgeries now has cancer. You called in praying for an encouraging because of James from Fort Worth TX who lost his daughter last year January 27th of 2020 and you're asking for prayer so that you may have God's peace, God's joy, God's healing because your 8-year-old son told you it's OK for you to go to heaven so that you don't suffer anymore. My dear sister I cannot imagine that and I'm standing alongside you in your tears. I'm praying for you and I'm believing that there’s nothing that God cannot do. There is nothing that God cannot do. God can turn this around in the name of Jesus. I am declaring healing over your body inside out I am declaring totally healing in your body. I am declaring functioning kidneys in the name of Jesus. I am binding those cancer cells to be done to be eradicated from your body in its entirety in the name of Jesus. I am declaring you healed by the blood of Christ. I'm loosening the healing powers of Jesus over you from the crown of your head to the soul of your feet in Jesus’ name. Amen. Esther from Orlando.
Hi, I'm calling in to pray for Lacey, Lacey, I believe and the Lilies. Lacey I just listened to the broadcast on the 17th, and I heard your prayer. I too suffer from a disease that won't let me fully extend some of my body and I also took hope in that same reading that you did. Keep reaching sister. God will straighten you up. I know that it doesn't seem possible right now but just keep reaching for heaven and you will reach it. We love you.
Good morning DAB family this is Doctor John from Illinois listening this morning at 4:18. Just wanna pray this morning for Chad who's suffering depression, anxiety, and fear but he knows enough to call, he knows enough to ask for help. And I listened to this brother pray for his nephew Jeff, the firefighter who’s sick with covid still experiencing troubles with it. And I guess my one encouragement the one…makes my heart just overwhelmed with I believe it's Ramona from Southern California she's a 32-year-old woman 8-year-old son, she's experiencing kidney failure, having some other diagnostic problems. And I'm just overwhelmed at her heart toward other people though. And she said something really sparked my heart. And she said even in the midst of this affliction God is still God. He’s still righteous and He’s still holy and He’s still just. And she's in desperate straits and yet she cries for help for other people and lifting up other people encouraging other people, that's her faith. Her joy is in the Lord. So, let's take a note from this. Family let's pray for others. Let's put others above ourselves. God hears every single prayer, and he knows our hearts before we even ask. So, thank you Brian and Jill again for this wonderful place that we can come together, this wonderful family that we share each other’s hearts and needs. This is the love of God acted out.
Good morning Daily Audio Bible family this is Stan from Maryland. My heart was impressed to pray for Trent. I believe he was on the August 18th prayer request. Dear father lift up Trent. He…he said is in a dark abyss of depression and despair and fear. Father God I pray that You would put a hedge of thorns all around Trent so that the influences of the evil one causing him to despair and to be fearful and to be depressed would lose interest and leave him. And Father, You know Trent’s heart. He's trying to draw near to You. So, I pray Father that You were drawing near to him. When You're in that dark place it's hard to see any light. So, I pray Father that You would illuminate Your presence in Trent’s deep soul s0peaking to him as he needs to hear so that he knows that You love him deeply, that You will lift him up and that You…that he can rely on You. As a matter of fact, Father relying on You is the only way because we are all confused Father God about what our future is and about what our perception of reality is. So, I pray these things for Trent in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Very fine morning – ready at 8 3/4 and out till breakfast at 9 1/2 – Pickells and Dick in the morning and the other man (John Ombler, cropper) with them in the afternoon taking clay out (10 inches deeper) of north parlour – Mallinson and 3 men – hewing except 1 man and lastly 2 pulling down wall and making place for turn stile or rather little turn gate and the door (what stood in coal-place near embouchure of water closer) into the approach road, the gate now being boarded being so heavy and wind if stuck having so much power that some easier entrance yet secure against sheep and cattle must be planned – 
Charles and James Howarth busy about hanging the gate now door and finishing boarding it – John brought 3 rows (3/8) of a rood of outsides for walling up little gateways in the morning and was moving flowers and 2 plants of yellow jasmine from under drawing room and hall windows and planting out 16 rhododendran Ponticum, 12 laurestinus, and 25 yews from Throp that came this afternoon – Kept Pickells and his men to help him till after 7 and the masons till even after that – 
John ill and bilious today – Pickells sprained his ankle (done yesterday) and sent Matthew about 8 to Mr Sunderland on the old mare, could not walk, with an inflamed ankle – the young man gave an embrocation and said it would soon be well, but he was to go again tomorrow –
Out all the day (with John in the afternoon) except from 1 1/2 to 3 asleep in my study – dinner at 6, my soup and roast mutton, then out again and came in at 7 to rice pudding and coffee then out again till 9 1/2 – 1/4 hour with Marian and ditto with my aunt – 
Note letter this morning forwarded by Miss Walker from Mrs Scott no! G W. Ellis, York, dated 3 May to say my letter had been so long unanswered on account of her husband being from home but Joseph was to be off as today – Miss Walker filled up the blank paper – good account of herself – Sarah a great comfort to her – thinks Dr Belcombe has not heard anything 
particular about herself me or if he has he behaves very magnanimously – 
Letter this evening 3 pages from Mariana, Leamington dated the 4th instant tho’ she has not written she constantly thought of me ‘I have forborne to write as I feared to let my paper carry you the feelings which have never ceased to press upon my heart since I received your letter of the 15th of April I cannot remain longer silent but will endeavour to forbear writing anything which can either annoy, or make you think me more weak than you yet have supposed me –
‘Besides, all this, your happiness is very, very dear to me, and after all the years you have sacrificed to me, I ought indeed to rejoice that ‘your days of solitude are drawing to a close’ – I do not apprehend that mine will ever come, as I have little doubt but that the quiet church at Lawton will receive the last of me, long before any other change takes place in the family – Be it so, I am, as I have always expressed myself to you, entirely satisfied that such should be the case, and now, I have an additional reason for the feeling – But I will not write thus because I really am thankful to believe you are as happy as I can desire’ 
Your having taken another to your bosom has not left vacant your place in Mary’s heart, you have it too long and too exclusively to be pushed aside by any other fresh interests may squeeze themselves pretty closely by the side but they have not and cannot encroach that my happiness is dear to you I well know surely we neither of us can forget ‘if the sunshine of love has illumined our youth’ ‘the moonlight of friendship’ may at last ‘console our decline’ let fate do her worst there are remembrances of the past of which she cannot rob me this often steal to my heart and perhaps scatter away the darkest clouds 
‘But Freddy, dearest Freddy somehow I feel awkward in writing to you, I know not that I write for you alone, and the thought discomforts me even though my letters might be hung on the church door – give a faithful answer to this part of my letter’ going to Lawton as yesterday for a week – on account of her schools and ‘because the change of air Mr Pritchard thinks will do me good’ – the holidays began on the 20th proximo and they are to receive the boys (Lawtons) at Leamington – mentions the Camerons going away for the summer – ‘I shall finish my letter here, for my thoughts will run in one channel – As I am quite sure your undertakings are founded on reason, it is but rational to have little doubt of success – may Heaven ever bless and preserve you, and be assured that I deeply feel your assurances of present and future regard – not less than ever affectionately yours, Mariana’ – 
She writes as if too bitterly repenting the deed of her own doing as if as much attached to me as ever how strangely inconsistent her conduct has been still by her own shewing I am right 
‘Virtutem incolumem odimus sublatam ex oculis invidi querimus’ Poor Mary! she traded her happiness for gold; and the price was fatally too dear – 
Wrote all the above of today till 11 3/4 – fine day, rather dullish – fortunately for my evergreens not much sun – Fahrenheit 62˚ now at 11 3/4 p.m. – William Green told me today Joseph Wilkinson said he would give him as much for his cottage as I would (£100 offered £90 before) and would like me let him and his wife have it the joint lives at £5 per annum – refused to enfranchise it (leasehold) – would be obliged to me to let him have it – or I had better buy the field it stands in – Told William to inquire what price he would take for the field – would give its worth, but not more and thought William had better sell his cottage to me than to Joseph Wilkinson

Well Dunne by Fred Schruers (from Rolling Stone magazine, November 7th, 1985)
The star of ‘After Hours’ knows how to produce a lot of laughs
The day Warner Bros. previewed After Hours at its Burbank, California, studio for a randomly selected public - “People who may have been coming out of Wendy’s on La Cinega” is how Griffin Dunne puts it - leading man Dunne and his co-producer, Amy Robinson, joined a line of cars stop-and-going through the gates to the studio. As he tells about it now, a month later, he mimes the part of a power-buzzed security man clutching a walkie-talkie: “Get these people out of there...Can’t let the audience see you, sir...We’re at Building C, walking the producer and the star over now...” 
They hid Griffin in the projection booth till the lights went down. Then he sneaked in and listened. Very happily. “They laughed. Went crazy. You couldn’t hear the dialogue.”
A lot of his best lines got lost in the hubbub then, no? Dunne lets his swivel chair rock down from a perilous two-legged tilt and gives the serious, almost beady-eyed take meant to remind you what an alarmingly hostile world we live in: “Let that be the most serious of my problems.”
In fact, Dunne has hardly any problems just now that stand much chance of knocking him from the embrace of the bitch goddess Success. Costing roughly $4 million and described by director Martin Scorsese as “an experimental, psychological farce,” After Hours took only one September weekend to show it would clamber out of cult status and be recognized as something the studio could platform into a nice little hit. 
As a producer, then, the thirty-year-old Dunne is at speed. The grudging credit the industry gave him for co-producing Chilly Scenes of Winter, at age twenty-three, and added to with 1982′s Baby, It’s You (OP NOTE: This is an error. Should be 1983), must now give way to admiration. As an actor, he’s got many people besides the studio guards referring to him as an arriving star. He’s onscreen in virtually every frame in After Hours, and his highly expressive face, which seems to be hastily if handsomely thrown together, accented with dark eyebrows and riveting brown eyes, is undeniably crucial to our comic appreciation of the very odd goings-on during the protagonist’s interminable night among the sexually flawed denizens of artsy SoHo. Whether recoiling from the kinky come-ons of Rosanna Arquette’s Marcy and Linda Fiorentino’s Kiki, feeling mousetrapped by Teri Garr’s Julie, marked for slaughter by Catherine O’Hara’s Gail or imprisoned by Verna Bloom’s June, he’s a catalog of nearly nuanced lab-rat reflexes. 
The key to Dunne’s performance is clearly reaction, as Amy Robinson points out: “It was imperative in this movie that the character be very likable. Otherwise, why would you want to spend this hour and a half going through such trials and tribulations?”
Adam Brooks, who directed him in this year’s unkindly received Almost You, judges Griffin to be just the right everyman for this opening up in Scorsese’s work. “He’s alone, like other Scorsese heroes, but not obsessed. He’s more like us - a child of computers and television. Lonely, but not driven.”
“A lot of people say Griffin looks like Dudley Moore, but I think he’s a lot more like Jack Benny - his comedy works when he’s surrounded by a lot of crazy people, crazy events. He’s charming, endearing. What’s great about After Hours is that the charm gets defeated at every point and ends up being a kind of vanity - so you’ve got this nicely mounting hysteria.”
The Joseph Minion script for After Hours - dispatched to Griffin after being handed to Amy Robinson by Minion’s film-school professor, director Dusan Makavejec - caught the actor’s fancy on page 2. He could sink right into the role of Paul Hackett, a lonely and bored word processor who meets an enticing girl at a coffee shop. “I understood the speech patterns, the other characters and the tension. And the situation of a horrible date. Of being with somebody, trapped in a situation. I’m looking around the room, going ‘How do I get out of here? And how the hell did I get in here?’ Which is a pretty funny basis for a movie.”
“My only criterion for directing Griffin,” says Scorsese, “was ‘I don’t believe you. For all you know, you’re pleading for your life. If I don’t believe you, I’m not gonna print this take, and we’ll just continue till I believe you.’ He had to get in touch with something in here, he had to plead for his life. And that was - fun.”
Thomas Griffin Dunne was born June 8th, 1955, in New York City, the first of three children of Dominick and Ellen (known as Lenny). His father was a Connecticut-bred, Williams-educated stage manager en route to producer status; his mother was an actress and model raised in Nogales, Arizona, by her Mexican mother and her cattle-rancher father, Thomas Griffin. Dominick worked on everything from Howdy Doody to Playhouse 90, and when colleague Martin Manulis moved to Los Angeles in 1956, Dominick took his work and family went as well. 
They settled in then quaint Beverly Hills (”Not the Iranian gun boutiques they’ve got now,” grumbles Griffin), where Griffin hung out with other showbiz whelps, like Carrie Fisher, until heading east to a prestigious old prep school. One unfortunately whimsical day, under the influence of a notorious Moby Grape album cover, he extended his middle finger toward the camera in the football-team photo. By chance, two years later, the headmaster glanced at the photo; the punishment was five swats. 
(OP NOTE: I actually contacted Fay School about this photo, and they claimed they didn’t have it. In hindsight, I should have tried a different approach because, to quote Mandy-Rice Davies, “Well they would, wouldn’t they?”)
Next stop was a less stodgy boys school in Colorado, where he won a plum role in The Zoo Story as a sophomore and became “Joe Theater” on campus. By senior year, he was preparing for his greatest performance, as Iago in Othello. The evening before the big day, Griffin and a friend were in a dorm room contentedly smoking dope when the door swung open. They smothered the joint just in time to look up at the school’s “one badass” faculty member, who asked, “What’s that smell?” “There was the longest pause,” recalls Griffin. “Finally, I said ‘What smell?’ “ The smoke, he says, “just poured right out - mocked me.”
Griffin, sent packing, hitchhiked home quite certain that his proper trade was acting. He got a bit part in Medical Story as an intern hooking up an I.V. line amid much medical palaver, but they changed the diagnosis on him at the last minute. Frantically trying to memorize the new bit during a five-minute break, he burned his lip trying to light a cigarette and went before the camera lisping, sweating, shaking, and bereft of words. Actress Linda Purl took pity and wrote his lines on her forearm, where the I.V. was to go. “It was such a classy move,” he says.
Still, deciding he’d better learn the trade from scratch, Griffin migrated to New York and joined the legion of struggling actors. He was catastrophically nervous at auditions: when he went before the stern Uta Hagen to apply for her acting class, he “went up” - completely forgot the text he’d prepared from The Catcher In The Rye. So he improvised, giving the story that morning’s trip downtown as Holden Caulfield might tell it. She was alternately rapt and chuckling, and signed him on. But he was soon shown to be the dunce of a class full of working actors. Finally, one day after he set a prop door up backward for a solo exercise, then frenziedly tried to shove it the wrong way through the jamb, she took him aside and told him he was simply not ready for her class. But he begged her one more chance, and the next day he skipped forward several exercises to do an imaginary phone call. He wowed Hagen and the class and went on from there.
As he built off-Broadway credits, Dunne lived in various shabby apartments and worked odd jobs, notably, selling candy and popcorn at Radio City Music Hall, where he was stung by the indifference of the Amazonian Rockettes: “They certainly had no time for a guy in a polyester zip-up baby-blue jacket with a cadet hat and shoes two sizes too big that had belonged to an usher who died of old age.”
He met Amy Robinson, who had gone from Scorsese’s Mean Streets to searching for work, at a party. With a third actor, Mark Metcalf, they became upstart movie producers by optioning Ann Beattie’s Chilly Scenes of Winter. Joan Micklin Silver came in as screenwriter and director, and they got studio financing to make a cult prestige item. It marked the beginning of a time of happy overwork for Griffin. He came back from shooting a TV film called The Wall in Poland (opposite Rosanna Arquette) to do the play Coming Attractions, which he then left to do John Landis’ film An American Werewolf in London.
He had come back to work full-time on producing Baby, It’s You when horrible news came: his sister, Dominique, a promising young actress, was strangled to death at the age of twenty-two by her boyfriend, a chef at Ma Maison. 
“It brought all of us who were left together for every moment for a year between what happened and the verdict,” says Dominick Dunne. “It’s never for a moment not a part of you. The point is, you have to go on, you have to cope, to live your life. He threw himself into his work.”
Baby, It’s You was completed that year and dedicated to his sister. Then, even as he helped with script revisions to After Hours, Griffin was before the cameras in Adam Brooks’ Almost You. It’s about a couple suffering from the young man’s restlessness, and though Dunne and Brooke Adams agreed to do it while they were very much a couple, by the time it got financing, they were just friends. “I guess you could say they had a lot to work with,” says Brooks. “but that never interfered with the production.”
Griffin’s been seeing New York actress Ellen Barkin lately; she was on his arm for the New York premiere of the film and afterward was a proud but not proprietary presence as he accepted congratulations well into the night from a buzzing crowd of friends at a downtown restaurant. He was due to head cross-country for promotional chores, but he’s got further plans for his unusually hyphenated career. He and Amy Robinson have optioned the hit play The Foreigner, written by the late Larry Shue. And after the rigors of making After Hours on a nocturnal schedule, Griffin is very happy to have the phone plugged back in and the shades up. 
(OP NOTE: As I mentioned in the transcript for the American Film article, The Foreigner never materialized as a feature film, though Robin Williams was attached at one point. That’s all the information I have about that at the moment.)
“I noticed that Griffin is the kind of guy who gets around a lot, parties a lot,” says Scorsese, “and I knew the hardest part of his job was sustaining the anxiety for eight weeks of shooting.” The director pauses for a grin that demands to be called devilish. “So I told him, ‘No sex for eight weeks. We’ve got careers on the line here. I don’t want you up at night talking, wasting your time and your precious bodily fluids.’
“Really, the idea was to contain him and keep him in this night world for eight weeks, ‘cause his performance depended on anxiety, and if he was satisfied, he would never be able to get that.”
Dunne, reminded later of the challenge, tips back his chair and grins to himself. “Aw, that was easy to live up to,” he says, then waits a beat to settle into the deadpan expression that is such a comic weapon for him. “Did you ever try to get a date a six-thirty in the morning?”

An Abomination (3 of 3)
Setting the record straight about the birth, death, and resurrection of Yeshua. February 5, 2020The astronomers (wise men) were from the city of Babylon, which is now about 55 miles SW of Baghdad in modern Iraq, watching the stars toward China in the East.They then traveled West toward Judea. I believe that there were maybe 12 astronomers, accompanied by maybe 18 armed guards for protection that traveled from Babylon to Jerusalem. It was not just 3 so called wise men, traveling alone, carrying a king’s ransom. The caravan of maybe 30 men traveled 70 days, 1,700 miles, and arrived in Jerusalem more than a year after Yeshua was born. 
The society of astronomers were carrying out the last will and testament of Daniel, who was very rich, and had willed his treasure to the Messiah, who would be born 517 years after Daniel’s death, if he died in 520 BC. Daniel wrote down what star alignments to look for. 
Luke 2: 21-2421 And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called Jesus, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.22 And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord;23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;)24 And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord, A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons. 
Let me explain. Eight days after Yeshua was born, He was circumcised. Forty days after Yeshua was born, was the fulfillment of the 40 days of Mary’s purification. Notice the sacrifice that Joseph and Mary gave. Two turtledoves or two young pigeons was a poor man’s sacrifice.
Forty days after the birth of Yeshua, the astronomers, which people mistakenly called wise men, had not arrived yet, because the family of Joseph was still poor.
Now, let’s go to Matt 2:7-127 Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.9 When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshiped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented  unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.12 And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way. Mary and Joseph lived in a house, and not a sukkah, when the astronomers came. As I understand, the sign that Daniel told the astronomers to look for was the planetJupiter, to come into conjunction with the star Regulus, in the heart of constellation Leo, the Lion. They were to look for this sign to appear seven times, starting on the 1stevening of Tishri. On the night of September 12th, 3 BC, marked the Hebrew day of Trumpets, the first evening of the 7th month. This was the sign that a mighty king would soon be born. In the next 14 months, this sign would be given 6 more times. So on the seventh sign, the astronomers packed up Daniel’s treasure, and traveled 1700 miles, 70 days, from Babylon, arriving in Jerusalem in early March, 1 BC, about a year and a half after Yeshua was born. 
The so called wise men and their travel guards were sent to Bethlehem by King Herod the following morning. When they got there, about an hour later since it was only 5 miles away, they could not find the family of Yeshua. That evening, they again saw the star in the sky, but this time, it lead them on a three day journey north, 72 miles to the city of Nazareth. How do I know this? 
Let’s go to Luke 2:39 39 And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth. 
After Mary’s 40 days of purification, and sacrifice in the Temple, the family of Joseph left Jerusalem and went back home to Nazareth, and the astronomers had not left Babylon yet, and not for another year. That’s why Herod had the boy babies killed that were two years old and younger. The first sign given was 1 ½ years earlier. Herod felt that killing the babies 2 years and under, that he would cover all possibilities. The riches that the family of Yeshua was given was to sustain them comfortably, while they were exiled in Egypt. Daniel was a eunuch, and had no family. He willed his estate to the Messiah, who would be born more than 500 years later. Yehovah, looked into the future, and provided for His son, Yeshua. 
The Catholic Church is more than 75% Babylonian sun worship. The flood of Noah was in 2611 BC, and ended in 2610 BC. 101 years later, in 2509 BC, was the Tower of Babel, and the dividing of the continents. Nimrod was worshiped as a god, and his wife, Semiramis, was worshiped as the queen of Heaven. 
Shem, a son of Noah, killed Nimrod, and scattered his body parts across the land. About seven months later, Semiramis became pregnant. So to cover herself, she proclaimed that Nimrod merged with the sun in the sky, and his sun rays made her pregnant. The child that was born was a boy, who she named Tammuz, and the sun in the sky was his father. Tammuz, and his mother Semiramis, were worshiped. But on his 40th birthday, Tammuz was killed by a wild pig. So every year after that, the religion priests instituted 40 days of weeping for Tammuz, by giving up an earthly pleasure so that Tammuz could enjoy it for those 40 days. When Yehovah scattered mankind across the Earth, these practices went with them, and have been with us for thousands of years. Even while Israel was in Canaan, it became a problem. Ezekiel 8:13-15 13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do.14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the Lord's house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.15 Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again,and thou shalt see greater abominations than these. Much of the teachings of the Catholic church is an abomination against God. Also, not only did the Catholic church change the date of Yeshua’s birth, they alsochanged the days of His death, burial, and resurrection. The catholic church gave worship to the Babylonian fish god Dagon, associated with the eating of fish on Friday. 
That is where we get the term, good Friday. The Catholics also gave worship to the sex goddess Semiramis, also called Ishtar, renamed Easter.
Semiramis, the wife of Nimrod, and the mother of Tammuz, supposedly died, went to heaven, came back to earth in a large egg, landed in the Euphrates river, and turned abird into an egg laying rabbit. You know her as Easter, the sex goddess, and how rabbits were able to lay Easter eggs. The Catholics made Easter Sunday the resurrectionday of Yeshua, two days after Good Friday. How many of you “so called” Christians are going to continue to engage in the pagan ritual of the 40 days weeping for Tammuz, which the Catholic church renamed Lent. It is an abomination against Yehovah. 
Matthew 12:39-41 39 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.
Yeshua said that He would be buried in the grave for three days, and three nights, and would be raised on the third day. Yeshua was crucified on Wednesday, April 28, 28 BC. He was put in the tomb about 5:30 PM. At 5:30 PM Thursday was 1 day, and one night. 
At 5:30 PM Friday was 2 days and 2 nights. At 5:30 PM Saturday was 3 days and 3 nights,being 72 hours, and Yeshua rose from the dead, about 5:30 PM, Saturday May 1st, 28 BC. The Lord of the Sabbath, rose from the dead on the Sabbath, the 17th day of the month Aviv. 
Therefore, the 10th day of the month was on Saturday, the weekly Sabbath, when Yeshua rode on a donkey into Jerusalem. There was no palm Sunday.
Passover that year was on Wednesday, so after sundown that day began the feast of Unleavened Bread.   Let’s go to John 19:3131 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,)besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
Let me explain. Because King James of England had gentiles translating the scriptures instead of Jews, we have this problem. The first day of every seven day feast of Israel is considered to be a high Sabbath. The 7 day feast of unleavened bread began at sundown after Passover, Wednesday night, which was a high Sabbath. The verse is not talking about Saturday, the weekly Sabbath, but a special day, the high Sabbath, the first day of unleavened bread. On the 2nd day, Friday, the women went to the shopping mall to buy spices. Also on Friday, the chief priests went to Pilate to have him put a Roman seal on the tomb of Yeshua. A Roman seal was a 2 inch hole drilled through the stone, and maybe 6 inches into the side of the tomb at a downward angle. Hot lead would be poured into the hole, and an iron rod inserted. When the lead cooled, the iron rod prevented the stone from ever being rolled away, unless you had 90 tons of force to shear both the iron rod and solid lead. A squad of soldiers was also guarding the tomb day and night.
Yeshua rose and left thru the walls of the tomb about 5:30 PM Saturday, being invisible. About 12 hours later, before dawn on Sunday, the mighty angel rolled the stone away, shearing the lead and iron, which can still be seen today. The soldiers saw it and fell to the ground scared. Maybe an hour later, Mary Magdalene saw Yeshua and tried to embrace Him.
John 20:17Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
When Yeshua died on Wednesday, 24 graves in the Mt of Olives cemetery outside of Jerusalem were opened. At sundown on Saturday, after Yeshua rose from the dead, He resurrected those 24 saints, and they walked into the city of Jerusalem. Yeshua was now both the High Priest, and King. The duty of the High Priest was to stay secluded in Mt. Moriah from the beginning of Unleavened Bread, until the First Fruits offering was given on the Temple Mount about 10:00 AM on Sunday. Yeshua took the 24 saints to Heaven Sunday morning, to present them as the first fruits offering to Yehovah. They are the 24 elders that you read about in the book of Revelation. Yeshua returned to Earth maybe an hour later when His disciples could then touch Him. 
Luke 24:13-1513 And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.14 And they talked together of all these things which had happened.15 And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. 
Therefore Palm Sunday, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday are Catholic pagan holidays.
YOU SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE!!!  
DO YO WANT THE TRUTH OR DO YOU WANT TRADITION?
Love, Debbie

Fei considers him to be like a little brother that she wished she had. Jotaro was also the first one to ever notice her feelings for Polnareff after their battle with Alessi.
Noriyaki Kakyoin- Fei and Kakyoin got along well during their travels and even considers him as one of her confidant (the other one being Jotaro). She respects him and admires his intelligence. They always like talking about interesting subjects or topics during their down time.
Joseph Joestar- The first time Fei met Joseph, she challenges him to a Stand battle to show him what she’s capable of so that they agree to take her with them to Egypt. Fei had always thought that her grandfather and the older Jojo to have the same personality and that he reminds her of him a lot and she respected him because of that. Joseph has always been irritated with both her and Polnareff every time they bicker and even teased that the two had some sort of sexual tension between them that needs to be “resolved”. He later became fond of her and even considered her as his second daughter and will do anything for her.
Mohammad Avdol- Fei always had high respects for Avdol from the start, ever since witnessing his battle with Polnareff, she admired his noble personality. She likes to think he’s the older brother that she never had. Avdol is more observant towards her and Polnareff’s relationship.
Iggy- Iggy has mixed feelings about Fei, sometimes he dislikes her for coddling him and treating him like a helpless little puppy and sometimes he’s okay with her when she would protect him from Polnareff’s abuse. Iggy is also aware of his feelings for Fei so he likes to torment the frenchman by pretending to be sweet all over her like resting his face in between her bosoms while making faces at him, mocking him in the process.

Saturday, Fifth Week in Ordinary Time
(Liturgical Colour: Green)
First Reading
Genesis 3:9-24
God banished him from the garden of Eden to till the ground.
The Lord God called to Adam and asked him, “Where are you?” He answered, “I heard you in the garden; but I was afraid, because I was naked, so I hid myself.” Then he asked, “Who told you that you were naked? You have eaten, then, from the tree of which I had forbidden you to eat!” The man replied, “The woman whom you put here with me – she gave me fruit from the tree, and so I ate it.” The Lord God then asked the woman, “Why did you do such a thing?” The woman answered, “The serpent tricked me into it, so I ate it.”
Then the Lord God said to the serpent:
“Because you have done this, you shall be banned
from all the animals
and from all the wild creatures;
On your belly shall you crawl,
and dirt shall you eat
all the days of your life.
I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
He will strike at your head,
while you strike at his heel.”
To the woman he said:
“I will intensify the pangs of your childbearing;
in pain shall you bring forth children.
Yet your urge shall be for your husband,
and he shall be your master.”
To the man he said:  “Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree of which I had forbidden you to eat,
“Cursed be the ground because of you!
In toil shall you eat its yield
all the days of your life.
Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to you,
as you eat of the plants of the field.
By the sweat of your face
shall you get bread to eat,
Until you return to the ground,
from which you were taken;
For you are dirt,
and to dirt you shall return.”
The man called his wife Eve, because she became the mother of all the living.
For the man and his wife the Lord God made leather garments, with which he clothed them. Then the Lord God said: “See!  The man has become like one of us, knowing what is good and what is evil! Therefore, he must not be allowed to put out his hand to take fruit from the tree of life also, and thus eat of it and live forever.” The Lord God therefore banished him from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he had been taken. When he expelled the man, he settled him east of the garden of Eden; and he stationed the cherubim and the fiery revolving sword, to guard the way to the tree of life.
The Word of the Lord
R/ Thanks be to God.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalm 90:2, 3-4abc, 5-6, 12-13
R/ In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.
Before the mountains were begotten
and the earth and the world were brought forth,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
R/ In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.
You turn man back to dust,
saying, “Return, O children of men.”
For a thousand years in your sight
are as yesterday, now that it is past,
or as a watch of the night.
R/ In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.
You make an end of them in their sleep;
the next morning they are like the changing grass,
Which at dawn springs up anew,
but by evening wilts and fades.
R/ In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.
Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain wisdom of heart.
Return, O Lord! How long?
Have pity on your servants!
R/ In every age, O Lord, you have been our refuge.

They ate and were satisfied.
In those days when there again was a great crowd without anything to eat, Jesus summoned the disciples and said, “My heart is moved with pity for the crowd, because they have been with me now for three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them away hungry to their homes, they will collapse on the way, and some of them have come a great distance.” His disciples answered him, “Where can anyone get enough bread to satisfy them here in this deserted place?” Still he asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They replied, “Seven.” He ordered the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then, taking the seven loaves he gave thanks, broke them, and gave them to his disciples to distribute, and they distributed them to the crowd. They also had a few fish. He said the blessing over them and ordered them distributed also. They ate and were satisfied. They picked up the fragments left over–seven baskets. There were about four thousand people.
He dismissed the crowd and got into the boat with his disciples and came to the region of Dalmanutha.

Genesis 3:9-15, 20
I will put enmity between your offspring and the offspring of the woman.
After the man, Adam, had eaten of the tree, the LORD God called to the man and asked him, “Where are you?” He answered, “I heard you in the garden; but I was afraid, because I was naked, so I hid myself.” Then he asked, “Who told you that you were naked?

R/ My heart exults in the Lord, my Savior.
“The LORD puts to death and gives life; he casts down to the nether world;    he raises up again. The LORD makes poor and makes rich, he humbles, he also exalts.”

Matthew 1:1-16, 18-23
For it is through the Holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her.
The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Abraham became the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers. Judah became the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar. Perez became the father of Hezron, Hezron the father of Ram, Ram the father of Amminadab. Amminadab became the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab. Boaz became the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth. Obed became the father of Jesse, Jesse the father of David the king.
David became the father of Solomon, whose mother had been the wife of Uriah. Solomon became the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, Abijah the father of Asaph. Asaph became the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, Joram the father of Uzziah. Uzziah became the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, Ahaz the father of Hezekiah. Hezekiah became the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amos, Amos the father of Josiah. Josiah became the father of Jechoniah and his brothers at the time of the Babylonian exile.
After the Babylonian exile, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, Zerubbabel the father of Abiud. Abiud became the father of Eliakim, Eliakim the father of Azor, Azor the father of Zadok. Zadok became the father of Achim, Achim the father of Eliud, Eliud the father of Eleazar. Eleazar became the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary. Of her was born Jesus who is called the Christ.
Now this is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found with child through the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband, since he was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly. Such was his intention when, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the Holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her. She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son,
and they shall name him Emmanuel,
which means “God is with us.”

For the last time, this is a review of the events and people in Roselle Park who helped shape the borough’s 117th year of existence in 2018. Both the well-known and perhaps unknown, here we go:
  10. Take The Stage & Play Yer Guitar On the summer solstice this year, Roselle Park for the first time took to the stage as part of the worldwide event Make Music Day. With years – sometimes decades – of practice dedication mastering their instruments and playing in front of live audiences, musicians gathered and shared their love of music with passersby and residents in the borough.
A few weeks earlier the call had gone out for musicians of all skill levels to sign up. Professional bands, accomplished songwriters, and up-and-coming artists all submitted their musical resumes. An impressive list of applicants took to the stage.
Among them was Rob Domanski. He loves music.
In the age of technology where a lot is available through a computer or tablet or phone screen, Rob taught himself the age-old craftsmanship of playing the guitar solely through YouTube videos. Day after day he watched and practiced.
Then came the opportunity to play in front of people when he heard about Make Music Day. He saw a chance to play in front of an audience. Frightening? A bit, but he still went on and played.
He went and did it.
He did not tell himself ‘I can do it next year’ or wait till he got it perfect. He got it done.
Just like Roselle Park’s Make Music Day. The small town in New Jersey saw the chance to join a worldwide event and took it. Get the word out, get people involved, and do it.
And that is really what matters – to just do something, see the opportunity and take it.
Keep practicing, keep playing, and keep doing it.
  9. Finally, Enough With The Crap (Hopefully) In May of this year, Resolution 156-18 put an end to a very little known secret among members of the governing body – a big paycheck for attending anything from none to ten (10) meetings a year. Up until then, any member of mayor & council who would be appointed as the borough’s representative to the Joint Meeting of Essex & Union Counties (JMEUC) was paid over $6,000 a year even if they did not attend any of the sewage authority’s once-a-month meetings. As one of an 11-member board, the JMEUC met to vote on how to spend taxpayers’ dollars on municipalities’ sewer systems – basically crap. This was no different than what is done on other boards the councilmembers take part in, but this one got paid more than half a councilmember’s annual salary. And for a number of years during then-Mayor Joseph DeIorio’s administration, those councilmembers appointed just happened to be running for election. The talk was that the money was basically a campaign slush fund.
Third Ward Councilman William Fahoury, this year’s appointee, donated his JMEUC salary to Roselle Park charities.
Then came Resolution 156-18. It permanently removed the salary from the appointee and instead applied the salary amount equivalent to 11 months as a credit to Roselle Park’s assessment, which it pays to the JMEUC.So, starting this year, instead of having around $6,400 go towards an election campaign fund or other personal use by an elected official, it went back to the residents of the borough.
The only way it can go back to the way things were would require a rescinding of that resolution.
Roselle Park taxpayers should keep aware that such a thing never happens because that would mean that a governing body decided that it cared more about themselves more than the people they represent.
  8. The Sound Of Silence The First Amendment: the right of the people peaceably to assemble.
On the morning of March 14th, a group of around 100 high school students along with teachers and administrators did just that. They took part in a nationwide walkout to remember the 17 students and faculty members who were shot and killed a month earlier at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida.
At 10 o’clock in the morning, the group stood quietly as the names of the 17 victims were read every 60 seconds by the six female student organizers of the event.
After 17 moments of silence, the students quietly returned to the building and their classes.
Among the accolades and criticism, members of the student body took time to not only exercise their First Amendment rights but to pay their respects to other high school students, who were killed in yet another mass shooting.
  7. Victory M Although it happened during the first month of 2018, this entry into stories of the years was over 80 years in the making. The Roselle Park High School wrestling team achieved its 1,000 dual meet win.
To put how significant an accomplishment that is in context, only three other high schools have ever been recognized for having done that in American history. That averages one win a month since 1936 when RPHS included wrestling in its sports program. Eight coaches throughout the program’s history trained and led RPHS grapplers.
On January 19th, the Roselle Park Panthers faced the Scotch Plains Raiders in a meet that was originally supposed to take place at Scotch Plains-Fanwood High School. In an honorable show of sportsmanship, the Raiders accommodated the Panthers to allow for an at-the-time possible 1,000th win at home.
Major Decisions, 3-point Decisions, Fall wins, and one pin were part of that evening’s victory.
After the meet was over, the stands emptied as well-wishers, friends, family members, former coaches, former wrestlers, among others congratulated the team. There were photographs, pats on the back, hugs, a banner, a plaque, and even balloons that graced the gymnasium floor with the Roselle Park Panthers at the center of it all.
Still, the team knew it was just a moment, knowing that the most important win is the next one.
  6. Call Number 025 ROT In a small town, a library is more important than one in a huge metropolitan city.
This year, one resident in her will, showed how important she held the Roselle Park Veterans Memorial Library (RPVML) by giving an original amount of $352,848.59 to the Athenaeum. That was later increased to more than half-a-million dollars; $524,862.27 to be exact.Ms. Roth passed away in 2016 at the age of 90. The original bequeathing was announced early this year and increased after a court portioned funds that were supposed to be donated to the Roselle Park First Aid Squad to the RPVML.
But since the Roselle Park First Aid Squad was removed as Roselle Park’s first responder in August of last year, it was deemed a non-operational organization. So 65% of that amount was given to the library.
Where that money is spent is not yet decided but the library board did pass a resolution that funds would be used for a capital improvement project and not for operating costs. That will be decided on next year and will include a survey to ask for input from the residents.
In Roselle Park, the library has become one of the jewels of the borough. Its grounds were renovated to be transformed from what used to be an unremarkable lawn to a beautiful memorial and path that include stanchions to commemorate the armed forces, a Purple Heart Monument, and the Doughboy statue. Now a resident has shown financially how much the library is valued for the benefit of everyone
  5. The Dollars & Cents & Sense & Politics Of Government At the start of this year, a proposal made by former-Mayor and current Council-At-Large Joseph DeIorio to have a more informed governing body when it came to mayoral appointments that required council approval was put into place.Interviewing.Past practice, including when Councilman DeIorio was Mayor for 16 years, was to have the mayor provide the borough clerk with a list of names to put on the agenda for the reorganization meeting. It was during this first meeting that many members of council would see the name of a firm or individual or company that would be appointed for a professional service. These names would be voted on by council to perform duties of affordable housing attorney, auditor, bond counsel, borough attorney, engineer, labor attorney, licensed site remediation professional (LSRP), municipal prosecutor, public defender, redevelopment counsel, and risk manager/insurance broker.
To be clear, bids for the professional services were available to all members of the governing body before the reorganization meeting and it was – and still remains – their responsibility to review all bids. But Councilman DeIorio thought individual sessions with those who bid to work for the municipality would benefit everyone involved. It would allow for an open exchange of questions, concerns, and ideas among the governing body.
At first, then-Mayor Carl Hokanson was against the idea but postponed the appointments until the sessions took place. During those interviews which also served as negotiation sessions, Mayor Hokanson saw their benefit. Instead of coming to the table at the first meeting of the year when the recommendations were on the agenda, the closed session meetings (which are allowed by law) had members of the governing body ask questions that engaged all elected officials so everyone could become informed. In the end, the mayor made his appointments and council approved them – each knowing the decision they made collectively was the most informed.
At the end of this year, the interview/negotiation sessions happened once again. Mayor-elect Joseph Signorello notified members of council that “to be clear there will be no negotiations on my appointments”. He reiterated that council has the power to accept or reject any of his recommendations allowed by law and that members would be “more than welcome to vote no”.Mayor-elect Signorello added that he did not “want to set false expectations that council will have appointment power outside of what already lies with them (President, Class III MLUB, Diversity, and Rec Comm)”. He was reminded that the interview/negotiations were not an attempt to remove mayoral power in making recommendations but to simply allow council as well as the mayor to be better informed on those who asked to represent the municipality in 2019.
The practice is a good one and should make a more informed governing body who can, at any time, fully explain why a certain person or law firm or company was working on behalf of the borough.
  4. For The Love Of The Palette & The Staff A really important issue that impacts elementary school students’ instruction time has, at this time, the possibility of a beneficial outcome for elementary school students. In 2017, there was a lessening of classroom instruction for art and music due to a clause of the 2015-2018 Collection Bargaining Agreement (CBA) between the Roselle Park Education Association (RPEA) and the Roselle Park Board Of Education (BOE) that had not been adhered to/noticed until the start of the 2017-18 school year. Enforcing this clause of seven preparation periods from five had an impact on time for art and music.
This year during negotiations for the 2018-2021 CBA, prep periods were part of the talks. In the end, neither of the parties could reach an agreement on the number of prep periods and the total time to be allotted for them.
Just recently, this morning, as a matter of fact, the RPEA president stated that the teachers’ union would be open to discussing the matter as a sidebar agreement which would not open up the CBA again for negotiation but allow for the possibility of changing prep periods.
This positive development will require input and attention from elementary school parents to give their children as well-rounded an education as possible next year.
  3. The Development Of Development Development was a major highlight of Mayor Carl Hokanson’s administration. For good or bad, Mayor Hokanson in his four years in office has created more discussion on and opportunities for residential development than any mayor in the last 50 years – including Joseph DeIorio.This year saw Mimi’s Pizzeria & Italian Ice get approved for development and closed up to return in the near future as a 14-condominium development. The pizzeria will return as part of the development.
Hunter property along West Webster Avenue at Locust Street started the process of having a hearing before the Municipal Land Use Board (MLUB) to have a redevelopment plan approved for its site. But the cogs of government bureaucracy slowed development on the Hunter property to a stop at the end of this year. As part of the process, the MLUB reviews the redevelopment plan and sends its recommendations to the governing body who then reviews them and votes on approving the redevelopment plan. This important step for the Hunter property – which was scheduled to be completed by the end of this year – will possibly have to start all over again in 2019 due to the fact that mayor & council was not clear about the recommendations of the MLUB. The reason this happened was due to Council-At-Large Joseph DeIorio, who was the council liaison for the land use board, not being present at that crucial meeting because it was the Monday before election day.
Not having him present created a vacuum in having someone being able to explain what the MLUB’s concerns were. This delayed the approval of the plan till December and this delay pushed the redevelopment plan to next year since an ordinance is required to formally adopt the redevelopment plan.
Now, a developer who thought they had an administration friendly to development now will have to go before a new administration – that of Mayor Joseph Signorello III – who ran a campaign opposing and cautious of the current state of residential development in Roselle Park.
And then there is the Ryan property along West Lincoln Avenue between Chestnut Street and Locust Street next to the NJ Transit train station. This long-talked-about area is stalled to even be designated as an area in need of redevelopment until, at least, February. This is due to one property – the only property not owned by the Ryan family – which is in the middle of the area. The homeowners of that property do not want to be considered as part of the area in need of redevelopment. The MLUB adjourned the matter until February to have the hearing so the homeowners in opposition of the designation can provide testimony as to why they should not be included in the area. It also serves as a time in which perhaps both parties can negotiate among themselves to reach a mutually beneficial resolution.
Finally, there is Fernmoor Homes, a developer whose amendment to an existing redeveloper’s agreement was approved unanimously by council for the property locally known as the Romerovski property. Originally, Roselle Park VP LLC was a partnership between AvalonBay Communities and Israel Braunstein, the owner of the property at 430 West Westfield Avenue by the train overpass. The amended redeveloper’s agreement officially removed AvalonBay Communities as a member of the limited liability company and was replaced by Fernmoor Homes. In 2009 after the municipality reached a settlement with the developer to stop a builder’s remedy lawsuit brought by Roselle Park VP LLC. The new amendment agreement proposed a 218-residential unit apartment complex with 33 of them being affordable housing units. This is down from the original AvalonBay Communities proposal of 249 apartments. The absence of commercial space is still part of the project; it will only be apartments. The amended redeveloper’s agreement extends the deadline for construction to begin by two years – from December 31, 2018, to December 31, 2020.
All these developments are something that residents should keep informing themselves on because it will shape development throughout the borough.
  2. Meridia Meridia the one word that could represent development as a whole in Roselle Park. Meridia is the name of one approved and another proposed project managed by parent company Capodagli Property Company (CPC).
Currently, there is one site at 610 West Westfield Avenue in the area of the old Domani’s/Yesterdays restaurant and surrounding lots that is being constructed. It is a 212-apartment complex two-building residential complex. There is 5,000 sq. ft. of commercial space on the ground floor; although unnamed the developer has stated they would want one or more restaurants, as of yet, none has been publicly named. That project will have PILOT, or Payment In Lieu of Taxes.
The other proposed project named Meridia Park Square is in the midst of negotiations for a 370 to 380 residential unit complex at the former site of Sullivan Chevrolet located right in the middle of Roselle Park on Westfield Avenue at the intersection of Chestnut Street.
It was hoped by CPC to have the redeveloper’s agreement, which details the specifics of what will be built on the location, approved this year.
The election of Mayor Joseph Signorello III has those in favor of the Sullivan Meridia project concerned. During the campaign, then-mayoral candidate Signorello stated, “I don’t think the first Meridia development was a good deal and I don’t think the proposed second Meridia is a good deal either. I’ve told Mike Lapolla this, and I’ve stated it on record numerous times. It’s too many apartments.”
But there is uneasiness from some that instead of putting a pause to the development at the Sullivan property, the new mayor might approve it. In his comment, incoming Mayor Signorello referred to Michael Lapolla, who was a consultant – some would say a lobbyist – for the first Meridia project. Mayor Signorello accepted a campaign contribution during the election. In addition to that, Mayor Signorello, as of December 31, 2018, has recommended Kevin Kolbeck to be appointed to the Municipal Land Use Board (MLUB), a board that would deal with developers, including Meridia.
During the groundbreaking for the first Meridia project, Michael Lapolla told a story of how Meridia came to Roselle Park. He knew George Capodagli, the owner and CEO of CPC, who was looking for a town that would welcome development. Mr. Lapolla remarked, “It all started with a leaky sink.”He then went on to say he called his friend, Kevin Kolbeck, who was also his plumber to fix the sink. Mr. Lapolla clarified, “My friend first and my plumber second.”He talked with Kevin about CPC and Mr. Kolbeck introduced Michael to then-Mayor Carl Hokanson, who turned out to be a strong supporter of Meridia development.
Now, the new mayor who said he that he did not think he did not think the proposed Sullivan Meridia project was a good deal accepted a campaign contribution from a consultant for the parent company of Meridia and looks to appoint the person who introduced the developer to Roselle Park.
There are those who support the current proposed development at the Sullivan property of up to 380 apartments and those who do not. The majority of the current governing body wants to address affordable housing as part of the project while there are those who have said they do not want it, even going so far as saying they do not want ‘those kinds of people’ in the borough. Based on the average income for people who can qualify for affordable housing, a large number of Roselle Park residents could easily fall under the economic level of ‘those kinds of people’.
Either way, how the development at Sullivan will be the most important impact on how Roselle Park will look and be perceived as for decades to come. If the new administration keeps to its platform of being against the currently proposed project it will allow residents to help shape what should go there by basically going back to the beginning. If the incoming mayor and councilman approve or push for the development in its current form, they will have to explain why they contradicted one of the reasons people elected them into office.
  1. Niah Travers The 18-year-old has had a notable year of being involved and being part of a community without wanting the spotlight or kudos. Niah, (pronounced NEE-uh) was one of the leaders of the student walkout (#8) earlier this year. In helping organize and take part, she helped students know that they had a voice – even if it was one communicated through silence.
She took part as a panelist for the mayoral debate this year. In asking questions of those vying to become the head of the borough, Niah showed that the youth of Roselle Park have a voice that should be heard.
She signed up to join the United States Army to serve her country. She is back from boot camp but will return on January 3, 2019. She will be working on moving into her job in the legal field in Virginia for about seven months. From there, she plans to attend Rowan University in September of 2019.
Niah, along with her family, moved to the borough about six years ago. Since that time she has become involved little by little in the place that she calls home. This year was a milestone with student activism, graduation, taking part in a debate, and joining the Army. In fact, she left for boot camp a couple of days right after she took part in the debate.
Niah is much like the numerous other residents who I have had the absolute pleasure of knowing throughout the years. They selflessly give of themselves without wanting fanfare or accolades. Niah and many other residents do things because they understand it is a privilege to help others, not a self-serving entitlement.
Niah is the person of the year. She is a person who displays the qualities that show the best of what residents of a one-square-mile town can do.

Mac
It's very true the guy is insane loser it is sitting on it almost got us in trouble so our son started working and it happened and our daughter had him do it to a degree and Trump is an idiot we didn't hit him for what he's saying. And you're going to get killed with Trump that's what it means cuz you're stupid and you don't get it. There are 19 holes left no out of the 20 holes 15 caverns have been discovered and mostly rated and fought over and 90% of the stuff's going to be destroyed shortly and fighting with clones and other five of them have not been accessed and if I get difficult and they're sending in tons of troops. And really this guy is so dumb look at me bending it like Beckman and your son makes fun of him all the time and he can't figure it out till later it gets really mad screw stuff up just beat up. You don't have time for that to happen we're going to start nailing. And there are 20 ground base lasers and 20 space and yes all this ground stuff is in the way of taking out the lasers he started threatening with it and then he started moving it and it is in precarious positions some of it and they're going after it hard and it's working finally and it's a good day this is finally happening it's such a nightmare in this guy tell me after such a spaz and little kid in front of trump is worse Trump is worse and the two big fellows are huge huge assholes to our son they don't mean anything to us now we got to get rid of him and he pee his pants because our son is acquiring the whole world they said he goes on the way out it's just Trump stuff so Preston started laughing and he said this is going to be great and he said it on the radio and people laid off and heard you saying you're offering franchises and all the sort of stuff and he said laughing so what's the matter Chris can't get cald or going. So he smiled that smoke smile start laughing like a hyena until Joe m and Joseph I don't think we have anything to worry about and put it on the radio and then he goes what about the obelisk that's not good stupid companies as much as we think you said we were wrong ed and it's about positioning his company sucks but it is positioning he's right and everyone's face and he sucked so I have to live with that shadow even though we're going to outshine them with ease. You're going to well okay just sit back and let it roll in then right off the back of Tommy f so he got disgusted he said this sucks it was a freaking huge a****** this plan sucks you suck for some reason you're retarded you got really mad and start throwing things around in the house instead of sick of this place he was right the whole time where piles and garbage nothing about anything in these two jackasses are running it and the biggest queer ass f** weeklings I've ever seen since they're beating on them all day cuz he has to I don't care if I've gotten to him or not isn't there tell me the f*** off cuz I won't shut up these idiots won't shut up no matter what he says and what he says is very very pertinent it would shut anybody up except these idiots let me see why they can kill like five times a day they don't care about it well he does and I do and we want them out and Terry came over no but the other guys did they said what are you going to do about it get hit by a flying object go back to your room so give it to me and don't worry about it every penalized and it didn't write another one but they plan to tell on them and he plans to go to town on them and take all their stuff cuz this boob and his henchmen and the other boob and his henchman and that's who's in the house surrounding Joe Preston and Ken and they're threatening them so tell me you have to say something to him I couldn't help it and so now he sees why
Thor Freya
You're such weaklings and your math is so wrong and you run around doing all the stupid s*** and get hit and you're stupid already and your plan is not a plan and you are so arrogant you should just stop what you're doing but you won't cuz you can't so you're going to leave Dead forever so at least he's going to burn in a funeral pile in front of everybody disgusting huh and you're going to be this dead lizard that sort of see something too use black people have control of the money
Zues Hera
I said the top part but really it's true that you go around digging around with them Trump and they managed to kill you permanently and use the hand of whitey
Thor Freya
There's a lot more people that want him gone than just Garth and Company but for real they're used for it and they want them dead and a lot of people want them dead

“Watched A Burglar Pile Up Goods In King Street Store,” Toronto Star. April 26, 1912. Page 2. ---- Then Placed Him Under Arrest - Three-Years’ Sentence a Few Hours Later. ---- CASES IN POLICE COURT --- Young Woman Accused of Theft of Watch and of Table Silverware ---- It being alleged before Magistrate Denison that Mildred Shannon had stolen a gold-filled watch, the property of Miss McGillivrary, the defence counsel, T. C. Robinette, reserved plea and election for a week.
‘They lived in the same house at 45 Carlton street,’ Detective Strohm explained.
A second charge against Miss Shannon was that she had stolen a number of knives and forks from Henry Pember’s restaurant in Yonge street. This also waits on a week’s remand.
Trouble Over Horse Deal. Benjamin Beridge, of Westmoreland avenue, was charged with fraud for having accepted $90 from Albert Lee for a horse described as ‘good to work, single or double, sound of wind and limb.’ Lee had found it otherwise.
‘If the animal isn’t good, I’ll take it back,’ Beridge declared.
‘You’ll get the chance,’ replied the court. ‘Come back on Monday and have the money paid back.’
William Todd will remain till the first, whom the Crown will try to prove that he took $10 from Richard Reynolds, while the latter was intoxicated.
Edward J. Hay, found trying to sell thirteen brass valves, will remain in custody a week till the owner can be located.
Three Years for Burglar. The methods of George Wright, alias Perry, [PICTURED] caught shortly after midnight while burglarizing the premises of Stockwell, Henderson and Co., at 78 King west, were amateurish. The only way to approach the rear, where entry was forced by removing a pane of glass, was by way of Pearl street, up a lane, and into the back yard. Inside, the burglar failed to turn out the lights, so that a man passing along King looked in the front of the store, saw the mysterious figure roaming about, and notified Constable Clarke.
By the time Clarke had circled the building and arrived by way of Pearl street, he could look through the broken window and see the burglar piling up various parcels, and carrying them to a table near the window. The officer looked on quietly until the man started tampering with the safe, then he thrust his revolver through the window and ordered, ‘Hands up.’ As the safe, was only a few feet distant, Wright surrendered peacefully, and crawled out the broken window the way he had gone in.
‘When wright appeared in the Police Court, he pleaded guilty in a smiling manner. He is a small, dark man, with a previous record under the name of Terry.
‘There are three prior convictions, all for burglary,’ the Crown Attorney added. ‘He needs putting out of the way for some time.’
‘Three years in the penitentiary,’ Magistrate Denison replied and Wright gave a little low whistle, then turned down to the cells.
Had a Record. The reputation of Walter Powell was bad enough before he pleaded guilty of robbing the woman at whose place he was living. It was Alice Mack who complained that Powell sold two blouses, skirts, shoes, etc., of her wearing apparel. ‘You remember his past,’ the Crown suggested. The magistrate nodded: ‘Central - four months.’
Police Court Miscellany Charles Gibson, charged with the murder of Joseph Rosenthal, was remanded till May 3rd.
Dennis McCartney, John Sullivan, and George McAlyn, charged with wounding C. Scarrott, remanded another week.
Arthur King, non-support, promises to quit the drink and give his wife the money.
Joseph Barnes, driver for the Geo. Lawrence Bakery, committed for trial on a charge of stealing $10 in money and $15 in tickets.
A case of eggs, two cooked hams, and a box of butter were held up against Wm. Fraser as stolen from the Wm. Ryan wholesale house. He goes to the Central for four months.
[AL: Wright had been in the Central Prison twice before. He was 31, married and also known as Perry and Poser. He worked in the shoe shop at the penitentiary, and had no reports for infractions of the rules. He was paroled August 1914.]

Tuesday 30 August 1831
5 3/4
11 5/..
Fahrenheit 64˚ and damp rainy morning at 6 – putting things in my new cupboard etc. about an hour – dressed, out at 7 3/4 – to Lower Brea – took George Robinson to the new foot path to be made through Well Royde wood – had Joseph Wilkinson there – all agreeable – George had got a man ready to begin – set him to work and George to begin leading stone – then to old Mr Wilkinsons in the Hough – not at home – sat a little while with his wife explaining about water course, etc. – should be back again at 12 – and would see Mr Wilkinson then by the new Godley Road to Halifax, to the bank – got draft at sight on Messers Swann York for £14 payable to Mr Lawton, Proctor and £86 in cash – 
Then called and sat 24 minutes with Mrs Saltmarsh – very glad to see me – to excuse me to her mother if I could not call if not should write – I had intended to stay till December or longer – found this arrangement could not be managed – could not be made convenient to my sister – and I was obliged to be off at 2 or 3 a.m. next Monday at the latest – so hurried and busy because quite unprepared – had no idea of being able to stay – should explain more to her mother if I saw her but should swear her to secrecy as usual – 
Home at 10 1/2 – paid my father the £10 I borrowed on Saturday – breakfast at 10 55/.. – observed to George Robinson this morning that if Stump Cross Inn was ever to sell should not like it to go for nothing – begged George to let me know – he said Mitchell had valued it far too high – at 30/. a day-work on that hill side to farm – about 20 days work belongs to Hammertons and co. joint property – 
Mr Sunderland came to visit McDonald for her throat and then came in to my Aunt and me in the drawing room – thinks my father very well – he has quite rallied again – out and at Well Royde wood at 12 10/.. found Mr and Joseph Wilkinson and George Robinson there – more difficulty in settling the matter than I expected – part of bit of ground I wanted to wall in belonged to Upper Brea – well then, said I, measure it off and I’ll give Joseph a shilling a yard for the 16 yards – George Robinson sent down to Lower Brea for the money – I put it into Joseph’s hand and now ‘we’ll have the wall up as soon as we can – you can make no more objections’ – 
They talked of building a new barn at Upper Brea – Went with them to see where they would put it – Luckily it will be farther back and more out of sight – there ought to be a new house said they – I then asked if they would let me the old buildings – there was no room for me at Shibden – I might go and live there (Upper Brea) – well! they could make a lease for 20 years – well! said I, we’ll think of it – but that wont do like selling just the old buildings and a bit of ground about them – why! Joseph thought of living there himself and building a new house but not more than 4 rooms on a floor – went with George Robinson to the mill to see what he wants addressing – a new room about 6 yards square - £100 will do it – then spoke to me of enlarging the dam and making a new entrance to the mill – but he would do it himself – no! said I, I am not fond of that – why! that would not be wanted of 2 years – very well then said I say nothing about it yet – nobody knows what may happen before that time – perhaps I can make some better arrangement for everybody by then – observing that the field the mill stood in ought to belong to the mill – the new room to be done as soon as George gets rid of his partnership with his brother I to have seven percent for my money – 
Home at 2 10/.. found note from Mr James Edward Norris – compliments and is sorry it has not been in his power to give an answer sooner – ‘not been able to come to any terms with Mr Emmett, but through a friend he has some expectation of having a ‘price fixed for the plots of ground in question’ – Mr Emmett is and will be from home ten days or a fortnight’ after his return Mr Norris will through his friend endeavour to bring the business to a conclusion – Halifax 30 August’ – I must think about this – 
From 2 1/4 to 4 20/.. (interrupted myself by inking over a couple of very bad to make out pencil pages of my Dutch journals) wrote pages 2,3 and 4 and 1 page and 1 end of 1/2 sheet envelope to Isabella Norcliffe will write to Mrs Norcliffe before the 6th and direct post office Whitehaven – anxious about the boy (Joseph Booth) not missing the place in the racing stables at Mr Scotts (Whitewall Corner near Malton) and beg Isabella Norcliffe to do anything she can about it – mention my being so unexpectedly obliged to change all my staying at home plans, and be off as soon as I can to the Continent – cannot know till Friday or Saturday whether the plan at present in agitation can be managed – if it can, must be off very early on Monday at the latest – will write and tell her how it ends directed to croft – after Sunday will be too late find me here – she had best then direct to Messers Hammersleys bankers Pall Mall, London –
