A Painful Day - Football and Maria

Life Can Be So Cruel

Today was a terrible day. One where the ramifications of the events that have transpired will live with me for a very long time.

You see, for over three years I waited for my beloved New York Giants football team to play those 'Who Day' Cincinnati Bengals.

Yes, those Bengals that Maria loves so much.

Waking up early, I started the day with a 'Good morning, bobcat."

Her reaction?

A combination of ignoring me, followed by a "Game time is 1 p.m, and you're going to know what its like to come to the jungle."

And so, our morning was pepper-filled with good-natured ribbing's as we prepared for the three-year showdown we had both eagerly anticipated.

Was I confident that my First Place New York Giants would go into Cincinnati - the home of Jungle Jim's - and stomp on the bobcats? You bet.

Well the Giants didn't simply lose the football game. They were humiliated.

And as the game continued and a blowout was taking shape, I got to hear Maria continue to sing the words:
Welcome to the Jungle. n the jungle, welcome to the jungle!
Watch it bring you to your knnn knne knees, knees!

Who day, who day, who day think they beat those Bengals!

The game ended 5 hours ago. But Maria keeps singing her improvised song while dancing around as if she had just one a Super Bowl!

Which - mind you - the Bengals never have, but the reigning Super Bowl Champion Giants have won four.

Nevertheless, as far as Maria is concerned, she won our Super Bowl.

And so, for some time to come, I anticipate that I will have to hear her singing these horrible lyrics connected to the Bengals.

Oh life could be so cruel! So cruel indeed!

And so much for sending her father blue carnations after what I expected to be a Giant Stomping. The only thing that got a stomping where the Blue ...

Which is exactly what I am right now.

A Special Message From Peter

Thank you for stopping by! As many of you know, I love being
a historical fiction writer. My storytelling evolves around topics I find interesting and current to the social dialogue, including subjects such as religion, science, technology, capitalism, and parenting. In each of my novels, several of these issues are typically weaved into the story's plot, with the hope and intent to keep my readers entertained while also providing some interesting historical facts intended to accelerate each story's plot. Like any author, it is my hope to entertain my readers while at times also stirring emotions to create a social reaction the way my novel Chasing The Cyclone has played a key role in raising social awareness of international parental child abduction, including becoming the seed that led to the creation of the I CARE Foundation. Now you may ask yourself, 'How impactful has Chasing The Cyclone been?' Significant. For example prior to the activism created from Chasing The Cyclone, international child abduction in the United States was advancing at a pandemic rate for nearly 30 consecutive years in a row. Then Chasing The Cyclone was released and along with it came a diverse, wide-spread, and highly impactful tools and measures that have remarkably played a heavy role in reducing the rate of international parental child kidnappings in the United States by over 15% per year during fiscal years 2011 and 2012. God willing, the efforts of the I CARE Foundation and other hard-working organizations will lead to another decline in the IPCA rate originating from the United States while also leading to a much-needed reduction of IPCA in other countries. As far as my writing there is one thing more than anything else that you may be interested in knowing as it is at the core of my storytelling: if you listen carefully, you will hear the voice of a father who loves his son more than words can ever express. Thank you for your support and interest in my writing and activism. I hope you find my writing entertaining, educational, and that each of my novels stirs your emotions.

I invite you to read a special message about my writing and volunteer work assisting children in crisis. (A Special
Message From Peter)

Remeber - life is filled with magic. Embrace each day to the fullest!

U.S. Reported Cases Of International Parental Child Abduction Drops By 15% For Second Year In Row!

Since the I CARE Foundation's inception, outbound reported cases of international parental child abduction originating from the United States has dropped by over 15%. This is a remarkable accomplishment, particularly when considering U.S. abductions skyrocketed during the previous 30 years. The drop in reported cases of international kidnappings is clearly related to government and non-government organizations efforts to raise society's awareness of abduction, while also creating new laws and policies geared to protecting children: issues the I CARE Foundation has worked hard at accomplishing.
