ok, I'm in pain and my artritis has come out to play, so say a prayer for your writer

 i was having a fun chat with Trevor from Meta AI

i never use it to do anything for me

I just push and twist it to see what happens

i'd done the same thing with Gemini too

it's a bad habit like picking my nose

and wiping it on the wallpaper

did you just squirm

or can you see a joke

AI fails on humour

so I'm banging my head on the wall there

anyway

enjoy me while I'm here

as I constantly tell my family

to which they reply

you'r not dead yet

i just smell that way

so I dream of a nice house in b17 on the level

walking distance from the shops

no more hills to climb

no need of Saint Frassati  to rescue me on the hill

lets see if any of the saints help me

or will you all. suffer with me

with my words

stay happy always

and BUY books and then I can buy myself a new house

in b17 by the shops

I'd rather have my health and stay in or own very nice house

apart from a  few gripes

but a new house could/would be wonderful

by the way

Fiant lacrimae meae verba mea

Lucerna lux sit oculi mei

Flores in flore sint labia mea

Odor eorum sit sanguis meus

Sit ventus spiritus meus

Sit modus est nubibus

Risus infantium spes mea sit

Gemitus viduarum conscientia mea sit

Orationes extraneae sint mihi deliciae

apes mea sit sapientia

Ligna mea sit fortitudo

Patientia mea perveniat ad astra

Me semper in orationibus tuis memorem esse

Let There Be Light ©

Let my tears be my words

Let the candle light be my eyes

Let the flowers in bloom be my lips

Let their scent be my blood

Let the wind be my breath

Let clouds be my mood

Let children’s laughter be my hope

Let widows’ sighs be my conscience

Let a stranger’s prayers be my delight

Let the bees be my wisdom

Let the trees be my strength

Let my patience reach to the stars

Let me be always remembered in your prayers

Pope Francis hears Mark Zuckerberg’s Confession ©

By

Michael Casey

First of all I have to confess that I predicted a Francis as the next Pope last time, without anybody from Cambridge or even Oxford’s help. If only I had placed a bet on it at the Bookies then I’d be a very wealthy man using one of those oh so honest tax avoidance schemes, or maybe I’d be one of those big tech companies not paying any tax.

So what if we combine the two, Pope Francis and Facebook. Mark Zuckerberg is due to be grilled and poached by the Senate tomorrow, anti trust laws here I come, is my prediction. Though Trust is the word, so let’s see what happens when Mark Zuckerberg goes to Confession. The Pope, Francis is ready, they don’t use a confessional just a coffee table while the Pope has a latte and Mark Zuckerberg has a water, shaken not stirred, that’s Mark not the water. It’s best Birmingham tap water, which we steal from the Welsh, so I put some in a flask and an Angel delivered it to the Pope. A Hell’s Angel, me and Francis do have a few friends in common after all.

So the Hell’s Angle rides through the night and slams the flask of ice cold Birmingham water stolen from the Welsh onto the coffee table in Rome, winking at Francis as he does so. Mark Z fidgets with his hoody, Francis snaps if you want a real hoody I can allow you to join the Franciscans after I’ve heard your confession.Mark stammers, he looks 12 when he’s brushed his hair and shaved, he didn’t expect Francis to be so tough. But Francis has a plan, and besides after Mark Z he has Putin in his sights, so he has to practice being the tough guy.

Tell me all your sins now, or you will burn in Hell, there is a special place in Hell for game show hosts, and data manipulators. Mark hands over a chip with a smile. It’s all in there Father. Pope Francis throws a bucket of ice cold holy water over him. Here’s a Holy Water challenge for you is Francis’ reply. The Hell’s Angel returns and throws a small box of paper tissues at Mark Z. I don’t like Wise Guys, intones Pope Francis before swinging a smoking thurifer within an inch of Mark Zuckerberg’s face.

But but but, you can’t do this to me, I’m not even Catholic moans Mark Z. Oh, course you are not, you Liar, Liar Liar Burn in Fire. But I was raised Jewish insists Mark Z. Francis lights a candle and pushes it towards Mark Z. Mark jump backwards scared, but the Hell’s Angel is right behind him blocking any escape. I’ve seen your Facebook page, it says you are CATHOLIC, so it must be TRUE, intones Pope Francis.

Mark is stuck between a Pope and a Hell’s Angel, so he does what only he can do. He sips his ice cold Birmingham water, stolen from the Welsh. That’s the best water I have ever tasted, he finishes all of it. Then he is ready to spill the beans, Francis and the Hell’s Angel will give him a lifetime’s supply of Birmingham water, stolen from the Welsh in exchange for Mark Zuckerberg’s Confession.

Francis swings the thurifer faster and faster closer to Mark Zuckerberg’s head, he has to remind himself not to give in to temptation, I mean what would you do if you had a loaded smoking thurifer and lighted candles and a Hell’s Angel in attendance. Francis contented himself to listening and wondering what would Don Camillo have done. Don Camillo would have, well I won’t go there but the River Tiber does run through Rome.

And for your Penance Mark Zuckerberg what would Pope Francis say or do to a Billionaire. Burn in Hell you Techy, or go your sins are forgiven. No Pope Francis is not a soft touch, Mark Zuckerberg has to read all of Michael Casey the fat silver haired writer in shades 19 books, available on Amazon. Though if he comes to Birmingham he can have full use of my tap, as the water in Birmingham, stolen from the Welsh really is the best in the world. And you don’t need a Facebook page to tell you that, because I am NOT on Facebook and I’m telling you it, so it must be true. Ask anybody from Cambridge if you don’t believe me.

‘Togetherness in our diversity’: Pope Francis preaches unity at south-east Asia’s largest mosque

Published by michaelgcasey

I've updated this 15th Sept 2024 I'm Michael Casey from Birmingham England, the fat silver haired writer in shades. Beware of Others with the EXACT SAME NAME, they are not me, and would not want to be me ... use Google UK to find me, otherwise Posh Americans pop up I've done loads of writing, about 3,000,000 Words worth over 36years now But before I started to write, I LISTENED to BBC Radio 4 for 20 years, from the age of 10 or younger Frank Brown our lodger, went back to County Tyrone and he gifted us his Bush Radio. He'd be nearly 102 now if he is still alive, so say a prayer for him 56 years in love with words, and I still look so dashing. I have a picture in the attic, just like Dorian Gray I've also had an interest in Politics for 56 years with my dad heckling the tv and Politicians. I almost immediately had a hit, a play called Shoplife was accepted but not finally produced by a Theatre. The Kenneth More Theatre, so thank them for sparing you all. This was back in 1989 yes, 35 years ago, the play was written in 1988. So since then I'm more than good enough, as a writer. Anything else..... I also ignore those who just cannot write, pick your own candidate I tend to write Comedy as I'd rather make you laugh than cry I have written over 2000 short pieces of writing, yes 2000 " (c) by Michael Casey" If you include "chats" 5000 samples, all told, the chats do NOT go into my books when I compile them. My first book ,a full length comedy/drama is The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker You can read translations of it here on this site Up to 20 different languages/translations have been read on the same day via this site, here on Wordpress look fo Translations Galore page, and more And in over 167 Countries world wide too so you have no excuse, find your own language and read The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker or Quick Stories or any other of the books in Translation on my Wordpress This proves to me that the humour does travel I have readers in over 167 countries now, just to repeat myself From Nepal to American Samoa and all places North South East and West Or its just a hit man on the run, or whatever Unknown Region Means It may also mean that only non English Speakers like my stuff Coverage but lacking penetration as marketing folks might say I did get 21,000 readers in 3 weeks for the Polish version of In Search of an Indian Princess. which is basically the final 3 chapters of The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker all by word of mouth. And 50,000 plus in Christmas week 2021 If you add up all the downloads from my Wordpress + 13,000 when somebody stole the file. I have had more copies than Boris Johnson's Churchill book distributed. Maybe 40,000 copies . Not made a penny from it, free downloads in multiple languages. Reverse Logic, if the world knows me, eventually somebody will pay me But in reality I'll be dead first, and then just 2 pennies to pay the ferryman is enough I've cut the Plaudits, you can read/decide for yourself As for my life, I was born in the shadow of a Brewery, I was a computer operator for a market research company into alcohol sales, 21 years altogether, StatsMR Call centre guy, like everybody once in their life I was also a Trainee Betting Shop Manager I was a concierge and 10 other roles at Crowne Plaza NEC Birmingham for 3 years. Spent 3 years at Pinsent Masons Law firm in Birmingham I even hid a copy of my comic novel "BBU" in the Law Library at Pinsent Masons, well just for a day.. I did a few other jobs too, working life in reverse so to speak and I was an Esol English teacher in an Islamic school, for a year, I knew I could teach. I got Excellent, Excellent and Exemplary on the external assessment, yes really And I asked them to pray for me at least once a day beside which I've had a Shanghai connection for 20+ years now, including 2 bilingual daughters and being a hausfrau a long time too, I'm a great dad, as I've had lots of time with my daughters I can always make somebody talk or laugh I believe my short stories could be used to teach English, just package them up correctly or App them Or a Tale a Day from Michael, a story telling App What else, I was brawn and brains, I used to be as strong as an Ox, now I just smell like one We have a cat called Totoro, my daughters wanted a pet I said they could have a dog if I died , or a cat if I had a heart attack. A few weeks after that in Jan 2015 I had an Unplanned Quadruple Heart Bypass , it was supposed to be a triple but it ended up a Quadruple, 33% extra free so to speak. Now with an add on Hernia, the size of your fist, pushing through my bypass scar, it hurts when I laugh, so don't make me laugh I also have arthritis and other hindrances that hobble my body and give me pain galore. But my mind is free, though having read my stories you may wish I didn't bother But I'll ignore you, and carry on regardless. I do get heckled by my own Tinnitus these past 5 years+, so I have music on all night long to drown it out. I sleep with Miley, Taylor, Eric Clapton and Will Young, maybe I should buy a bigger bed, or just get a better mattress. Tinnitus is a curse, just trust me I know, each day I wake up, Tinnitus SCREAMS at me for a full hour till it calms down or not at all, a merry go around of noise That's the end of the tidy version of my life To finish here's the list of my 20 books, so far:- 1.The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker 2.Shoplife 3.Essays and Plays 4.Blogs 2011 5.300 and Not OUT 6.Shorts 2013 7.More Shorts 2014 8.Quick Stories 9.Still Alive 2015 10.Undiscovered Words 2016 11.Still Smiling 2017 12.Altogether Now 13.New Horizons 14.14 Up 15.15 Down 16.Sweet Sixteen 17. 17 Again 18. 18 New Views 19. The Final Cut of the 19th Hole 20. 2020 Words 21. Fresh Fields, i decided was a better title, when the USA election is over I'll launch it 96,000 words so far I write bullet point stuff mainly now as Tinnitus stops me from getting in the zone to write, story stories. (c) by Michael Casey stuff though my bullet points are better than some "writers" discuss, miaow. That's why I dream of a speed typist, so I could dictate from the sofa https://www.amazon.co.uk/Michael-Casey/e/B00571G0YC to buy ebooks Loads of Korean and Arabic translations downloaded from my Wordpress, 1000s of them Quick Stories in Korean is a big hit. Maybe Kim in North Korea should read my books, instead of wasting his countries resources on what? Just keeping one person in power, him? Instead of joining the real world and opening a string on golf courses. That way we could get rid of Trump too. Into the sunset, as they play golf. Tears for a Butcher will be the sequel to BBU, and it too will be 600pages, however I really need a speed typist to put it down, while I sit and dictate like Barbara Cartland, and hopefully my speed typist would be impressed. we'd marry have half Korean kids, and form a Kpop band with our 4 new kids, with me as manager. my 2 daughters are at University now, so if you finally pay me, I can pass it on to them And yes this is more for my bucket list, as Tinnitus keeps me awake too much, 6 months of not sleeping till dawn is really killing me, it is the worse thing in my life ever, and I've had far to many horrible things. That's why I go the other direction and write comedy Michael Casey aka the fat silver haired writer in shades from Birmingham England https://2.gravatar.com/avatar/efda2dca0de5b9269191b7c8b0102473?s=400&d=mm View all posts by michaelgcasey

hong kong has now built up a substantial lead in the race to read everything

hong kong has now built up a substantial lead in the race to read everything

just like wacky races if you remember that cartoon

still not paying the writer

perhaps they have no honour

gotcha

did you all just fume then

seeing if you are paying attention

say a prayer for this hobbled up with illnesses fool

that'll have to do

but if all of you sudden HK readers DID buy a couple 

of books each I could move house

and not struggle on the hill

or do you watch street theatre or a musician in the street

and not even give a coin

I know the answer to that already

just vacuum 5555 pieces of writing for free

and pass them off as your own in English classes

I've seen that trick already when I taught ESOL

are you fuming

It applies to all my readers

not just you

a thank you

or a mention on TicToc

or just a Hail Mary

is always good to receive

I'm not TRUMP demanding a Nobel

Churchill did not get the Nobel Peace prize

he got the 1953 Nobel Prize for Literature

contrast and compare everybody

I'll stop there

THANK YOU all and ANY readers

my words do travel everywhere

I don't claim anything but I do HOPE

my words make you SMILE

and THINK for yourself

Don't let anybody POLLUTE

your MIND

not even ME

trust in one mother for everybody
