It is a fact that our first president GEORGE WASHINGTON a great and noble person was offered to be KING of this newborn nation by his peers. We know he declined. In retrospect, WOULD THIS NATION AMERICA HAVE BEEN BETTER OFF HAD HE ACCEPTED THIS REIGN BEING OF SUCH GOOD CHARACTER?
Can we blame our present social moral decay on the media i.e. TV, movies, newspapers video games, etc. or is the media simply responding to the social consciencious of the majority of Americans?

THE SIMPLE EXPLAINATION OF FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS:
Aunt and Uncle as opposed to the respectable title of "Aunt" and "Uncle" but the Cousin especially "once removed" might be confusing. In simple terms remember that COUSINS share the same Grandparent to make them first cousins. When one cousin whose Grandparent is the same as the other cousin's Great-Grandparent then that relationship is FIRST COUSIN ONCE REMOVED as in the case of Rosemarie Trentacoste and me Rich Burriesci that is her Great-Grandfather is my Grandfather Cologero Burriesci. Same Great-Grandparent makes them Second Cousin. It is easy to understand the relationship between siblings and a TRUE Great-great Grandparent makes them Third Cousins and so on.
MR. SPIELBERG, PLEASE ALLOW ME 53 SECONDS TO GIVE YOU A SYNOPSIS OF OUR SCREENPLAY "ONTARIO ROSE"
The 1947 UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico was no accident! It was a diversion whereupon Victoria, the pregnant alien from Antares journeyed to Canada assisted by Navajo Indians who were close friends to a Captain in the Royal Canadian Mounties. Her son, Ontario Rose, was born on his ranch. The Captain raises the extra-terrestrial genius while Ontario's real father is an elderly planetary forefather. Their homespun adventure
with a touch of humor unfolds the story of alien inhabitation of earth today.

TIMES SQUARE/42nd Street @ BROADWAY (NYC CENTRAL) Mayor Rudolph Giuliani brought Disney to 42nd Street and evicted almost all of the Porn Palaces that were around when I sat on the Lions at The New York Public Library. You now have an abundance of Broadway Shows for a small sum of money but some of the finest entertainment is FREE inside the Subways of New York City especially at the Junction of TIMES SQUARE. The best in Blues, Jazz and even Opera Singers and Musicians perform solo or groups reminicent of The Temptations with their creative dances; all vending their original CDs at $20.00 a pop. Many people pause and enjoy! I'm welling enough courage to CROON "THAT'S AMORE!" for TIPS! At breakfast again at WESTWAY DINER in Manhattan I scribes such a small sign to say just that. Times Square has always been and remains the Mecca of Entertainment of All Sorts! Now there is one minor frustration regarding getting around NYC and that is "Travel Time" all having to do with the laws of physics. Squeeze ten million people combined with Taxicabs, Buses, Trucks and Cars with the Skyscrapers on an island two miles long and half mile wide then it will take you two hours at busy times to travel only twelve miles long and two and a half miles wide! Today I had to abort a trip to "Little Italy" in Greenwich Village to get back to St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital for my medical records. So keep Travel Time in your mind and agenda when you come to visit this great city.

The Bear hibernates in the winter and so does The Cyclone, Giant Ferris Wheel and The Coney Island Boardwalk in lower Brooklyn where it greets the mighty Atlantic Ocean! The founding location of NATHAN'S still here in the photo has the Original Kosher Frankfurter priced at $3.80 per Hot Dog not 25 cents my parents last paid when I rode the Ferris Wheel in 1959. This Spring the wooden frame of the most famous and oldest running roller coaster in the world will be made into paper and replaced with a steel frame. However today to my delight I parked myself at a table in the cozy ISLAND FOOD COURT (718) 373-1000 where they serve only Boar's Head meat products and sampled a extra large slice of cheese pizza for only $1.00! I just got out of the hospital with a very serious heart condition where pizza was not on my cardiac diet but this pizza was worth dying for and another buck bought me another! I commented on how good it was and another elderly customer blurted out "It's the New York water!" I remember learning that on PBS NOVA where the finest bottle waters can not compete with the City Tap Supply that comes go the Greater NYC from the Springs of the Catskill Mountains. This is why our bread and pies taste so delicious! However I did not expect the trip from Richmond, Virginia to our Nation's Capital was actually shorter than the two full hours it took to travel via City Bus/ Subway from the Queens/ Nassau County lines to Coney Island in Brooklyn. Come this Spring it should be worth the four hours of track and tar. ps. If any of you think my articles are worth reading about please feel free to submit it to the local newspapers or UPI in my behalf for it is my intent to become a viable writer.
CONEY ISLAND IN WINTERTIME

CONEY ISLAND IN JANUARY 2012
At the start of Breakfast in Ricky's Cafe Diner I commenced writing lyrics to two famous tunes to be sung as one song. The fresh brewed coffee stimulated my thoughts in honor of an American tragedy GROUND ZERO. The small glass of orange juice I always save for last is a toast to the day ahead. Today it was for finishing the song short and sweet. I will inaugarate it at Ground Zero and so I began my trek to lower Manhattan via the M20 City Bus. The crowd was very small less than forty people and no wonder why! I was stopped two blocks from the point and to go closer required a Ticket of Admission with a hefty price of $25.00 per person. I expressed my dismay to four security guards each at different posts but all with sympathetic views like mine. How sacraligious to charge admission to the most sacred cemetery in the world! Two of the guards called it a
travesty unaware what the other has said. To think that all the multi-billionaires including New York's own mayor could not or would not sponsor to curtail any costs to keep this hallow ground free for all to see and remember. Another guard echoed these sentiments and said it was just plain politics and it stinks! inain to the human spirit. Enough words of discontent said by me!
We must remember why we come to this site that usurped even Pearl Harbor that Day of Infamy. So to the tunes of America the Beautiful and Auld Lang Syne I pen these words:
(Tune of America the Beutiful) I am sure Donations would be plentiful if a Tariff was not forced upon so
How beautiful the Twin Towers were
that pierced the New York skies.
When evil came that fateful day
We could not believe our eyes!
How beautiful the Twin Towers were
that pierced the New York skies.
When evil came that fateful day
We could not believe our eyes!
America! Oh America has been united in that fall ... On nine one one
in two thousand one - Bless All who responded to that call.
(Tune of Auld Lang Syne)
Should they who died nor be forgot
And always brought to mind!
The brave fire fighters and police people too kindle in our hearts for the
flag of red, white and blue.
GROUND ZERO
THE NEW YORK EXPERIENCE/ UNDER THE EL will focus on urban areas you heard about and want to visit and explore. You can enjoy these neighborhoods vicariously through my journals yet not about me. Hopefully when you take your family to the Big Apple you can have a heads up on where to stay, where to go, where to eat and see what show provided of course I do my journalism well enough. I am grateful to other people I never met who share their New York experience with the world making YouTubes that I will use in my column.

Every day, unless it rains, Richard C. Burriesci walks the streets of Church Hill looking for Steven Spielberg. Burriesci, 57, wears a pinstriped suit. He carries an attache case. Inside it is a copy of his screenplay, “Ontario Rose.” It’s a touching story about an extraterrestrial boy raised by Navajo Indians and Canadian Mounties. It includes a scene in which Elvis Presley’s famous snarl is revealed to be caused by an alien woman’s tender kiss. It is, Burriesci believes, right up Spielberg’s alley. He just needs 53 seconds to prove it. Burriesci and his then-girlfriend, Victoria Janyia Dillard, began writing “Ontario Rose” almost 10 years ago. “We ate, slept and dreamed about it all the time,” Dillard says. Once they completed the screenplay in 2004, they sent it to several Hollywood agents, directors and actors, who responded with the standard refusals. (Spielberg was the only one who didn’t write back.) Who knows what could happen now? Dillard tells Burriesci: “Keep your suit on, keep your suit on.” So he does. And he hopes. He hasn’t visited the sets at the State Capitol or Empire Theatre, where Spielberg was filming last week. “I don’t want to be intrusive or obnoxious,” he says. Instead he’s relying on fate — and the sign in his East Clay Street front yard, which in graceful calligraphy says, “Welcome Steven Spielberg!” If he gets to make his 53-second pitch, and if the director’s intrigued, Burriesci has prepared his next line: “Our golden script is ready for the silver screen.” He’ll reach into his attache case and pull out a copy of “Ontario Rose.” He’ll hand it to Spielberg, and thank him. Then Burriesci will pull a cigar from his suit pocket and light it. He doesn’t smoke. But, he says, it would be a special occasion. And if the director says no? That’s OK too. “If it’s not Steven Spielberg today, it might be Francis Ford Coppola two years from now.”

FANFARE OF THE FLIP FLOP
(this title courtesy of the mysterious red head aboard the 42nd Street Crosstown Bus)
This winter was not so harsh in NYC as it was last year but we had our share of fridgid days. However when a summer sun came to visit New Yorkers just a week ago City dwellers were anxious to shed their The North Face jackets and ladies bared their pretty toes and feet with or sans professional or homespun pedicure. The knee high boots and utilitarian cobblers were shelved for these welcome Indian Summer days. For millions of women and yes, the men and children too it was a fanfare of flip flops and sandals! And there was some not so pretty feet but comfort takes presidence in times of supply and demand for both the young and very old. Did I mention that the baring of exterior winter wear made for extra room on the seats of trains and buses? So ladies bring on your best pedicure sans your stockings and pantyhose and enjoy the fresh warm air that came with the Ides of March.

Well Jesus Christ could take so much before He angered and wielded the whip to those merchants who desecrated the Temple in Jerusalem and the peaceful often pacifists Quakers of the 300 year old congregation of Friends in Flushing, New York could become hawkish over the desecration of the solemn burial ground of their historical estate! I attended a usual Spiritual Workbench held at 10:00 am this past Easter Sunday. I had known some weeks before that the Pinnacle Construction Company was braising enough to trespass and violate the private property belonging to the Quakers since 1694. This Meeting House continually served Friends in the Long Island, NY area for over 300 years and at least a hundred Quaker souls are buried in this hallowed property. It is safe to assume that the arrogant builders of modern corporation manipulation figured the millions of dollars generated each year in revenue and taxes far outweigh possibly a few hundred thousand dollars in fines and punitive damages. The Quakers in existence for almost 350 years have always been staunch pacifists in war times and advocates for social justice. I know the names of the handful of Quaker women who attended this Paschal meeting on April 8, 2010 but I refuse to mention their names because quite frankly I support their hawkish stance and valor to challenge the criminal actions of those who tromp upon the meek and innocent in the Name of Corporate Progress. Bravo! To the pint size heroine who leadith thy cause to save the bones of their ancestral Friends!

Dear Friends Yes! I use this as one of my satellite offices DAILY because of its central location in the heart of Manhattan just one block south of Central Park on Fifth Avenue at 57th Street. It has FREE wi-fi and it is open to the public seven days a week from 8:00 am until 10:00 pm. I sit on the level of the Starbucks Cafe where there are comfortable lounge chairs, tables and chairs. I have access to electrical outlet and the bathrooms are clean and nice. The same floor as the restrooms is a restaurant, snack bar, deli bar and an ice cream parlor $4.00 one scoop $6.00 two scoops and $7.00 for a triple decker. Plenty of tables and chairs in the mezzanine to hear sometimes a live concert. All this us for FREE compliments of Mr. Donald J. Trump the unofficial Mayor of NYC and he lives upstairs in the Penthouse which is all gold guilded. I mention this to my out of town friends especially because it's worth making this part of your visit to the Big Apple! Some of my New York friends did not know about this either. So out of towners especially should start their New York trek and experience here at YOUR Trump Tower headquarters. Did I mention the waterfalls and outdoor Gardens with a NYC vista?

BITTA BROADWAY ON Q32 BUS!
I boarded the Woodside Q32 Bus to NYC at Trump Tower and it was crowded to capacity. I yelled out "Mr. Bus Driver please turn on the AC!" The sound of the compressor drew cheers. At Queens Plaza half the bus emptied for those who opted the Subway to Manhattan at this juction. Now halfway across the Queensboro/59th Street Bridge the Intercom comes on and the bus driver MATTHEW BELLAS announces it's springtime in Manhattan and the weatherman says it's going to be a hot and sunny day. If God did not witness this you would not believe me what I will tell you next! In a most splendid voice Mr. Bellas belts out on the intercom microphone singing "Oh What A Beautiful Morning!" of which was met by bravos, claps and a standing ovation from a usually grumpy crowd who had not had their first cup of coffee! Now in my lucky producer sweater I approach him and tell him that he won't last long enough with the bus company to retire because someone in the position to discover him certainly not me will snatch him and his talents. However I would like to put him on The Lincoln Studio on the World Wide Web. To which he popped out his calling card inviting me to visit his website: http://www.matthewfbellas.com and that he does have a trained voice. I told him I croon the old time greats now singing in the cemetery for God. Without hesitation I crooned "That's Amore!" to which he sang harmony and encored with "When You're Smiling!" again singing duet harmony. We concluded with "Give My Regards to Broadway!" each taking one line solo as we approached the real Broadway in Manhattan. All the while YES! an elderly couple, a young couple in their early twenties and a middle age woman doing her best to tap dance. There were more bravos and I told Matthew never to stop singing on his bus because he literally changes a dim outlook on a sour New Yorker's face and perhaps indirectly puts a positive twist on hundreds of city slickers each day he encounters and whom they meet in their "Happy Trails".

MR. DONALD J. TRUMP
725 Fifth Avenue (Trump Tower)
New York City, New York 10022
Dear Mr. Trump:
I am the guy who held up the sign “I WROTE A SONG FOR REGIS” last month when you did your Celebrity Apprentice LIVE segment with Paul Teutel, Sr. Just a week before that I was in the lobby of Regis Philbin’s Condominium Building at W. 67th Street singing for his doorman the song I wrote for Regis back in 2003. I found out where Regis lived after singing for his longtime friend Kenny Simmons who owns the restaurant behind Regis’ home where Regis and Kathi lee Gifford frequent. Mr. Simmons thanked me for explaining why I was in search of REGIS PHILBIN.
It appears your friend Kathi Lee Gifford was a bit miffed that I did not write the song for her singing just a few bars when I bumped into her walking talking to her Associate on W. 48th Street near Broadway on my way to the Social Security Office just a few days after YOU gave me two thumbs up reading my sign. I said to Ms. Gifford, “I know someone who loves Regis Philbin more than you and it’s not his wife – It’s Donald Trump!” She responded, “He certainly does!! If Regis were a woman he’d probably marry him!” Seriously, I do know the fondness and respect you have for your friend Regis for so many years and would love for him to be happy perhaps recording a song under his name that represents the 20th Century era and the City he loves so much as well as you do I entitled: “MEMORIES OF 20th CENTURY NEW YORK CITY & LONG ISLAND”
I am at Trump Tower daily for about an hour in the morning at 9:00 since I moved back to my native home NYC after living forty years in Richmond, Virginia. Now his friend Kenny, his doorman and Kathi Lee loved it for Regis but I really think the opinion he may consider the most being yours – if YOU liked it for Regis, well Sir, I am ready to croon it for you at Trump Tower.
Sincerely yours,
Richard C. Burriesci
