The True Story by LeRoy Webster Sr. circa 1970s


 (The following hand written story was written by my Dad, LeRoy Webster Sr. )

Let me first not identify myself for fear of reprisals from family and friends and loved ones. Looking for truth is so dangerous you can't begin to acknowledge the magnitude of lies around and about you in normal everyday activities among those you are supposed to trust.

Let's start somewhere that I think may be the beginning of something— let's say today for instance. I wake up to the electric Snooze Alarm Clock because I can't trust my Talking Alarm Clock right now, because the past two days it didn't bother to wake me up. It is smart enough to talk, but it won't tell me that the battery is getting weak. I checked it out last night, and it said 'alarm on - 5:45 AM'.  I said, 'good'. But this morning, it didn't do what it was supposed to do. At the time of 5:45 AM, all it was supposed to do, is keep saying the time until I get up.  I stopped using the Snooze Alarm Clock when I got this talking clock because I had a hard time remembering which snooze I was on,  and then  be late getting up.




The Talking Alarm Clock would tell the time, and then crow, and keep doing this for one minute, or until I get up and push the switch to turn it off. No one told me that all of a sudden it would stop talking.

Well, lights on, time to rise and shine!

First, look for my slippers, on occasion they are just where I left them the night before, and my feet slip right into position. Ok, now onward to the bathroom to take a leak, and wash my mouth out, and put in my teeth that have been soaking in a container all night.

I can't remember who told me teeth were supposed to last a lifetime. Mine didn't. 😏
