JEMAIL: Colon, Philip J. (MC1962) quotes Owen McKeon2013-Dec-31Dear Friends, As we approach a New Year, its' Joys and Challenges, I hope that you will not mind that I remind you and thank you for the difference you have made in the lives of so many. Your prayers, kind thoughts, love and respect have been what has defined the Blessings and Support you have shared with and for so many. The lives of our loved ones and beloved friends have been touched and in so many ways been made easier during this part of life's journey by your prayers and faith. Yesterday, during the Mass Of Christian Burial for our Niece Doreen, Father spoke of Doreen having embraced God as an old Friend during her final hours and her ordeal and I could not help but let my mind wander to think of each of you and be thankful for your grace and strength when we pray. As Jim Smith says, " Prayer works." I ask that you take a moment to give thanks for each other and remember those faith filled words of our Lord, ......Where two or more gather in My Name, I Am there among you. I know I don't have the words exactly as they were spoken but we are heard none the less. Thank you. God Bless. As Owen McKeon always said. Your Brother In Christ. Phil Colon Colon, Philip J.

JNEWS: Genovese, Joe [MC1973] vp franchise development First Watch restaurants2014-Jan-02http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20140102/ARTICLE/140109934/-1/sports?Title=First-Watch-hires-former-Starbucks-executive#gsc.tab=0 First Watch hires former Starbucks executive By Justine Griffin Published: Thursday, January 2, 2014 at 5:46 p.m. Last Modified: Thursday, January 2, 2014 at 5:46 p.m. MANATEE COUNTY - First Watch Restaurants hired its first vice president of franchise development this week, as the Manatee County-based company pursues an aggressive plan to expand nationwide. Enlarge Joe Genovese has been hired as the vice president of franchise development for Bradenton-based First Watch restaurants. Joe Genovese was named to the job, bringing to the First Watch team more than 40 years of restaurant and food service experience at companies like Starbucks and Seattle Coffee Co. Genovese will lead the company's franchising efforts, including sales and development for First Watch. First Watch, a chain of breakfast, brunch and lunch restaurants, has 115 restaurants across the country. In 2013, the chain opened 14 locations and has nine openings planned for the first half of 2014. There are five in Sarasota and Manatee counties, and 43 restaurants in Florida. The restaurant chain is the largest daytime-only restaurant concept in the United States. The company has expanded aggressively since being acquired by Los Angeles-based private equity firm Freeman, Spogli & Co. in late 2011. The majority of locations opened this year were franchises. “Joe's experience, relationships and success in the industry will be a tremendous asset to our team as we continue our expansion plans for First Watch around the country,” said Ken Pendery, chief executive officer for First Watch, in a statement. Genovese spent the last 15 years at Starbucks Corp., where he worked as a national account director, vice president and in franchises for the Seattle's Best brand. He also worked as an executive vice president, marketing and chief development officer for AFC Enterprises, a Georgia-based company that owns Popeyes Chicken & Biscuits. He received his masters of business administration degree at Fordham University in New York and has a bachelor's in business administration from Manhattan College. First Watch was named as one of the “Next 20” emerging brands by Nation's Restaurant News in 2013. # - # - # Genovese, Joe [MC????] # - # - # - # - # 2014-Jan-02 @ 20:19 Dear John, I believe that Joe is a member of the Class of 1973.

ENDNOTE: Socialists and the Second Amendment2014-Jan-04http://jpfo.org/smith/smith-individual-liberty-and-2a.htm The "Economics" Of Individual Liberty And The Second Amendment Share/Bookmark By L. Neil Smith, lneil@netzero.com. The Libertarian Enterprise. December 13th 2013 Prepared for Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership. © JPFO. Inc 2013 *** begin quote *** Now here's the thing: socialists don't see it that way. To them, statistics is the key to understanding history and human nature. Human beings are just like batteries to them, or bottles rolling off an assembly line somewhere, In a world of seven billion human beings, in a nation of 330 million, Marginal Utility rules. Any given individual counts for nothing. With a little training, any human being can be unplugged, discarded, and replaced by practically any other human being. When human beings come to be perceived, by socialist politicians, by socialist bureaucrats, by socialist policemen, by socialist judges, by socialist academics, and by socialist media, as nothing more than indistinguishable, interchangeable units of a commodity, then any public manifestation of individuality -- let alone individualism -- is seen as a threat to be managed. So terrifying do they find it, that they have spent billions of dollars and millions of man-years in order to delegate the recognition and acknowledgment of individuality to machines. Little wonder that, when the socialist elite decide that not enough of those seven billion units are serving socialist interests, they come to the conclusion that the great majority of them can be discarded. It happened in Armenia, in Nazi Germany, in Soviet Russia, in Red China, in Pol Pot's Cambodia, and it was almost always preceded by sweeping gun confiscation -- or to a population already long since disarmed. *** end quote *** This is a slam on “social justice” socialist thinking. It’s everyone’s duty to survive and thrive. We do that best by a level playing field. Same rules for everyone. Keep what you earn. Not redistribution. No “free lunch”. No force or fraud allowed. Otherwise, the Gooferment kills us. Either quickly with their “justice”, or slowly with their “taxes”. Argh! # - # - # - # - # |
