Below is the photo of the K-Car that Bernice owned, taken not too long after Bernice had first bought it; with my paternal grandmother and her daughter Chris standing adjacent to the car.
As I write in “Early Life And Continuous Livelihood”, Bernice would have been better off buying a Golf or a 2-door A2 Jetta than that tawdry K-Car that she owned. I also write that we think that Bernice had made a slovenly decision to buy her K-Car.
This is, however; not the reason as to why my paternal grandmother and Bernice don’t speak to each other. The reason is that Bernice had a bunch of screws loose, the differences between the two sisters-Bernice and my paternal grandmother become more evident and cognizant as time goes on from the day we and my grandmother move in together, forward; and my paternal grandmother regains her artsy-fartsy personality after she moves into our new house with us.

Tennis player James Blake in another person who should be transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight.
I would closely examine James Blake’s head with a magnifying glass to ensure that his hair will someday grow back.
Tennis is acceptable (though like any other sport, I’m not into it); but James Blake should come into realization that School Buses are more important than (icky, yucky) Basketball.
James Blake should never be allowed to dress to the nines.
All modern barbershops with barbers with tattoos (any barbers with tattoos should have them removed) are also ghastly, as well as any barbershop that uses toolchests for the barbers that they employ to store their barber supplies.
This 2-story house plan, a Cape Cod; would be doable as a house for us and my paternal grandmother to live together in “Early Life And Continuous Livelihood” only if it included an elevator.

There’s a ghastly barbershop in Birmingham, Michigan that’s been in business in 1949 where the elite that reside in the Detroit Metropolitan Area have been going to get their haircut for decades. Including some athletes from the Detroit area’s (icky, yucky) sports teams over the years. It’s titled “The Barber Pole”.
This barbershop has been designed it’s founders Max & Marie Ege by for the affluent and well-endowed clientele that reside in the area, and indeed, the affluent clientele has responded well to the barbershop for it’s nearly 7 decades in existence.

Yours truly personally does not favor this barbershop nor the affluent and well-endowed clientele that live in the area. Even athletes from the Detroit area’s (icky, yucky) sports teams coming to this place to give their haircut sends shivers up my spine.
I hope Margaret’s husband Ralph never went to this barbershop to get this haircut when they lived in Birmingham, Michigan.
I would be worried sick if NASCAR drivers Kevin Harvick, Elliott Sadler, Denny Hamlin, Kasey Kahne, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Matt Kenseth and his son Ross each got their haircut at whenever they’d travel to the Detroit area.
And I’d also be worried sick if NASCAR driver Josh Wise had his head shaved with a razor at this barbershop whenever he’d travel to the Detroit area.
I’d have a coronary if Clint Bowyer ever got his haircut here whenever he’d travel to the Detroit area. I personally would rather that Clint Bowyer spent time in Weidman, Michigan visiting Jan & Diane Pol’s veterinary practice than get a haircut at this ghastly barbershop within the Detroit area.
I’d also rather that Greg Biffle spent time in Weidman, Michigan visiting Jan & Diane Pol’s veterinary practice than get a haircut at this ghastly barbershop within the Detroit area.
I would be very upset if Colin & Sheila’s 3 sons got their haircut or had their heads shaved with a razor at this barbershop should they and their 3 sons ever travel to the Detroit area.






Soccer/Association Football player Conor Casey should come into realization that School Buses are more important than (icky, yucky) Soccer/Association Football and (icky, yucky) Basketball.
I would examine Conor Casey’s head with a microscope to ensure that his hair will someday grow back.
Conor Casey needs to be transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight.
Maybe Conor Casey should be forced to listen to Adult Contemporary, Jazz; and Easy Listening music.

The Gyllenhaal family is an old Swedish noble family, dating back to the 1600’s.
Some of the famous and well-known members of the Gyllenhaal family are director Stephen Gyllenhaal and his famous children ( both actors) Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal.
Other members of the Gyllenhaal Family are Johan Abraham Gyllenhaal, Leonard Gyllenhaal, Carl Henrik Gyllenhaal, Lars Herman Gyllenhaal, Mathilda Valeria Beatrix Gyllenhaal, Anders Gyllenhaal, Liza Gyllenhaal-Bennett, Lars Gyllenhaal; and Sam Gyllenhaal.
The immigrant from Sweden for the American branch of the Gyllenhaal family is Anders Leonard Gyllenhaal.
The Gyllenhaal family orginated with Nils Gunnarsson Gyllenhaal’s father Gunne Olofsson Haal. Haal comes from the name of the farm estate Hahlegården, a crown homestead in South Härene Parish in the county of Västergötland in West Sweden. At first, the surname was spelled “Gyllenhahl”; and then “Gyllenhaal”
Other notable Swedish noble families are the Natt och Dag family (Sweden’s oldest noble family, which dates back to 1280), Oxenstierna (which dates back to the 14th century), Sweden’s second oldest family-the Bielke family (which dates back to 13th century); Bonde family (which dates back to the early 1400’s), Carpelan (which also dates back to the early 1400’s), Jägerhorn af Spurila (which also dates back to the early 1400’s), Sparre (which dates back to the early 1200’s), Stenbock (which dates back to the 1500’s); and Trolle (which dates back to the 14th century).
The Dreyfus family-of Alsatian Jewish origin, consists of actors Julia Lois-Dreyfus; Richard Dreyfuss, and French actress (coincidentally named) Julie Dreyfus; as some of the family’s famous and well-known members.
These 3 actors are descended from the branch of Alfred Dreyfus.
The Dreyfus family is also known more than anything else for founding the Louis Dreyfus Group in 1851.
Other members of the Dreyfus family include Léopold Louis-Dreyfus, Pierre Louis-Dreyfus, American actress Julia’s father Gérard Louis-Dreyfus, Robert Louis-Dreyfus, Louis Louis-Dreyfus, Jean Louis-Dreyfus, Francois Louis-Dreyfus; and American actress Julia’s half-sisters Phoebe Émilie Dominique Louis-Dreyfus Eavis and Emma R. Louis-Dreyfus.
As the Alsace region in France is on the German border, many Alsatians have German given names and surnames instead of French names, the Alsace is referred to by many as being “France with a German accent”, the Alsace, since antiquity-has been land that has been fought over territorial disputes by France and Germany, and at various times, was a part of either country; the German name for the region is Elsass, and many Alsatians were pressed into service by the Nazis to fight in the Nazi German military without any approval by the French government; it shouldn’t be any surprise that the name Dreyfus is German sounding and isn’t French sounding.
The Nazis had built the Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp in the Alsace, and some of the prisoners of war in the Natzweiler-Struthof concentration camp were British, American, and French spies and special service agents. The Nazis had even destroyed all documentation of having captured, imprisoned, and killed these British, American, and French spies to make it look like these human beings were never killed nor have they ever existed on this planet. This was especially evident when British military officers, after the war; had dug up Nazi documents trying to find out what had ever happened to their special service agents.
An Alsatian who had fought with the Nazis and had been brought to trail by the French at the end of WWII, had testified that he did not want to fight with the Nazis, but was forced to do so because the alternative would have been that the Nazis would have otherwise killed him should he have refused to serve with the Nazi military. Again, many Alsatians were pressed into service by the Nazi military, and they didn’t have any choice in the matter.
The Optare Sigma was powered by the Cummins C-platform engine, while the Optare Excel was powered by the Cummins B-platform engine.
Like the Metrorider, the Excel was also available with an Allison transmission.
The Sigma and it’s successor-the Excel are midsize buses, whereas the Metrorider is a compact-sized bus.
