European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - January 15, 1990, Darmstadt, Hesse Monday. January 15, 1990 the stars and stripes Arm Landers Page 11 letters dear readers remember the letter from lost in dreamland the 17-year-old High school girl whose Mother had to practically dynamite her out of bed in the morning a surprising number of readers identified with her. Take Loolu dear Ann Landers i can sympathize with that 17 year old who could t get up in the morning. I am 29 and have had the problem All my life. I quit College actually i flunked out because i could t get to classes on time not even an 11 o clock. I also Tost two Good jobs. I be seen three physicians and two psychologists. No one could find anything wrong with me. I be asked friends to phone and Wake me up. I d say thanks and go right Back to sleep. When i finally got up i did t remember the Call if i set an alarm clock i d turn it off and crawl Back in bed. I have a Good Job now but i be been late several times and am scared to death that i la be tired. I went to a sleep disorder clinic for help and was told sorry we Deal Only with narcolepsy sleep Apnoea and now i am waiting to see if any of your readers can come up with a solution. Fingers crossed in Beantown dear Beantown if you Don t find a solution among these responses please see another therapist. Detect a pattern of self destructive behaviour that needs to be explored. I la keep my fingers crossed too dear from Lawrence Kan deaf to alarm clocks get a bed Vibrator designed for the hearing impaired. It s a Gadget that goes under the mattress or can reattached to the bed Frame. You Hook it to an alarm clock and it will shake you out of bed. The clock an Vibrator Cost $250. But it s Worth it. Corpus Christi i have a sure fire soul in for that 17-year-old who has trouble getting up in the morning. Join the Navy. You la be pulled out of your bunk by a Boatswain mate just once. From then on you la get up on your own. Stars and stripes Europe anyone who has trouble getting up in the morning should join the army. A Tough sergeant will change your sleeping habits fast. Seattle Tell Sleepyhead to put a big Ben alarm clock in a dishpan. When the alarm goes off the rattle and Clang could Wake the dead. Salt Lake City we raised 11 children. As they entered Junior High each one received an alarm clock and was told. You re on your with Many kids you can t fool around. They All grew up to be responsible self reliant adults. Mesa Ariz when the alarm clock failed me i was told by a Friend to gel a clock radio and set the volume Way up. Clock radios Don t wind Down or Stop. They blast away until you Damn Well get up and face the Day. Las vegas maybe that sound Sleeper has a hear ing problem. She should forget about an alarm clock and get a flashing Light clock. This is what the deaf use. Jacksonville when our 18-year-old Nephew came to live with us he said you la have to get me up in the morning like mom. 1 sleep through alarm i told him forget that jazz. You re on sure enough when he knew nobody was going to play nursemaid he got up by himself. Newark the sure cure for sound sleepers is Mohave a baby. I used to sleep through thunderstorms police sirens and fire alarms. Then our son was i hear him if his breathing is uneven. No one can understand this but a Mother c to Angeles tutus Syndicate and creators Syndicate american family hosted East germans i am a person who As much As i can. Tries to stay in touch with world events through various news Media. But As any person should know the news you hear read or watch on to is not always infallible. So i responded to an announcement in the stars and stripes asking if German speaking american families would be interested in taking in an East German family for the holidays. This personal Contact was most rewarding. The fam ily we received was a very Nice one. The knowledge gained by both families was most impressive. Theirs for the discovery of How we live and How much we All have in the West. Ours for the discovery that in the East they Lack even what we consider the most com Mon every Day necessities t guess it would be right to say that it May have been at least partially a Sociol economical Shock for them. The problem did not originate from the fact that they were just simply behind the Western nations. It is much More profound than that. The psycho ideological Dogma imposed by certain governmental regimes makes their own subjects feel guilty if they even aspire to own anything that their neighbors would not have. It did not matter if Only the political party members government officials and other privileged persons id have Access to goods the population did not eve know existed. Unlike Many other poor nations on the Western Side the sociopolitical and educational systems of these Eastern european countries actually denied their own society the knowledge of what the rest of the world was like. Only the negative views from the of g d Side world were permitted to be disseminated. In the meantime they actively put out propaganda that their sociopolitical system was the Best one for the entire world to look upon. Unfortunately there Are millions of people who still live under similar conditions. Looking Back to our own country we have very much to be thankful for. The Freedom and the wealth we enjoy we very often take for granted As if it i falling from heaven. We Are not perfect either. Right now the United states is in very desperate need of a Good moral and educational Reform. And As in the Case of these nations it has to Start from its people As a whole society. The american people need to be Well educated and properly informed on just about every aspect of life. On any Given Issue the people need to know and scrutinize the Story from All sides. Only by being Well educated and properly informed we. As a nation can avoid being deceived. If we do not open our eyes and act our nation s problems with the Economy crime drugs sexual diseases immorality environment etc., will deteriorate and the United states will no longer be a suitable place to live. The american exodus will then Start. I Hope we americans learn from what is going on in the world and set our own House in order so we can build a better Home for our children children s Chil Dren and future generations. Only then can americas till be blessed by god. Frederick Kayross Pir Masens West Germany writer agrees on pan am flight 103 ruling i was watching an news when it was announced that the lawsuit filed by the relatives of those who were killed on pan am flight 103 was turned Down. I was in a minority with my friends when i agreed with the judge. I have never lost a family member in a tragic Acci Dent so i can Only imagine now awful their pain must be. But come on we have suddenly forgotten that there was a bomb put on Board and that it was put there by people who put no value on human lives theirs or ours. That these relatives can blame the United states West Germany or pan am is ridiculous. How about focusing our attentions and the Media on the people responsible in the first place terrorists but then we can t be any Money out of them which after All is usually the Bottom line when you sue Over a death. I really feel that these people should pull together for support and achieving their emotional stability get their lives Back in order and remember that a terrorist killed their loved ones not pan am airlines.
