AM I A RASPUTIN INCARNATE?

AM I RASPUTIN?”
In my lifetime I have  often time fallen into rivals hands.
I have been overdosed, stabbed, shot and beaten to mere milometer of Death, herself.
Even left for dead – laying stretched out like a Crucifixion on the orange line on the McKay highway.
The Guardian Angels saved me – not my fellow “other” Angels.
That incidence was 49 years ago today.
At this time on November 18th, 1970, I was hanging upside-down, dangling like a Pinata, while men twice my age beat me with everything and anything they could find.
All over me asking for one penny more per pill I foolishly attempted to broker to them.
One cent times ten thousand. For 8mg Hydromorphone stolen via a break-in of a large name corporate pharmacy chain.
In desperation of a ‘quick‘ sale, I approached the number one rival of the “Club” I swore loyalty to.
As the trucker who spotted me in time, dragged me into his trucks cab and tried to wake, me I had my first “vision or dream or whatever” of Rasputin.
At that time I thought little of it. Looking back five decades later, I realize there may be far more to this.
AM I A RASPUTIN’S INCARNATE?
I still have my Guardian Angels – the other Angels and I parted ways many moons ago.
By mutual agreement. A privilege few are granted. A reward for time served and dirty deeds done dirt cheap.
Am I proud of that? My “Shakie Dann Verner” side is. For because of my loyalty and silence, I was granted a chance of a normal as possible life after I served my last long term in a federal penitentiary.
I have never returned to prison. I still have occasional get together's with the “Brotherhood“.
Although, to the best of my knowledge I am the soul surviving Brother. Age and violence have laid the others to rest.
Rasputin suffered at the hands of rivals and of wolves in sheep's clothing. As have I.
So, I ask myself why the repeated visions?
Could I be channeling the Rasputin of old?
(On another note. …. take away the “Ras” and you are left with a “Putin”. Another great man of recorded history.)
My “LightHouse” side holds no pride. But, in my life my greatest claim to fame is my honesty and therefore I have no qualms of publishing my choices in life.
Be they Dark or Light.
For at the end of each day I remain Dann – just as I am.

Court still prohibits marijuana possession

Court still prohibits marijuana possession Shannon Kari, National Post Published: Thursday, December 11, 2008 The prohibition against simple possession of marijuana has been upheld by an Ontario Superior Court judge, in a closely watched case that stemmed from the prosecution of Clifford Long, who was arrested by Toronto police with $40 worth of cannabis. Justice Eva Frank overturned a decision by a lower court judge last year that found there was no valid restriction against possession of cannabis because of flaws with the country's medical marijuana regulations. The lower court decision led to confusion about prosecuting simple possession cases in Ontario, said the federal government in its arguments before Judge Frank earlier this year. The federal Crown argued that the present policies of Health Canada have resulted in enough marijuana for the nearly 2,000 people with medical certificates to possess the drug. Judge Frank agreed with the arguments made by federal government lawy

Demons Of Guilt

Menu The LightHouse Dann Verner Some say my that my life has been a tragic sad tale. Only from their view point. Having lived through my life I can say it has been a damn good ride. I fear not dying for to die is final. To be waiting for that one final jolt of pain is extremely difficult to deal with. DEMONS OF GUILT This is a reflection of the pain I am going through as I finish my son’s biography. Delaney Jordan McLean Verner, 29 years old. Jordan “Bubba” Verner On Christmas morning 2019, hung himself in a town called Black Diamond . An obscure town in the underbelly of Alberta, Canada. He and his wife of 12 years, Katelyn had gone their to start a new life. Hoping to escape the homelessness rut and street life they were “Groundhog Day “  living on the streets of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. A dream that collapsed and left them stranded, freezing and hungry. Only to have Alberta Social Services rudely tell him and his wife to “Go home”. By any way they could. But, a big “but”….. Adding

My Opinion Regarding the Israeli/Hamas War

  Listen to this episode on Spotify or wherever you stream podcasts. How can it be all right for one side of a war ( Israel)  to bomb innocent civilians, but not okay for the other side ( Hamas)  to do so? Common sense would tell you that the majority of the people living in the Gaza strip are not supporters of the barbarism of the Hamas. They would much rather be living peaceful lives. Not living under the reign of fear from the Hamas. Largest part of the Gaza strip problem is that if the Hamas were to allow the innocent to leave, where could they go? Israel? Egypt? The majority of the Palestinian people are in the same boat as the average citizen of Afghanistan, Iraq or Syria. They are labeled and condemned by the actions of their governing leaders. The terrorist government controls every and all aspects of their everyday lives. You can not believe that all Palestinian citizens want to go to war. Their hands are tied and their voices are silenced by their leaders If they were to spea
