Robert M. Yerike
Robert M. Yerike "Buffalo Bobby," 67 years old, died Thursday, Sept. 29, 2011 after climbing Nesuntabunt Mountain on the Appalachian Trail in Maine. He was born December 23, 1943 in Jersey City, N.J. Robert was raised and went to High School in Kearny, NJ. After high school Robert was educated at Emmaus Bible College, IL and McAllister School of Embalming, NY. He was a paratrooper and medic in the United States Army. After serving the Army, Robert worked as a truck driver for Preston and as an independent operator. Retired in late 1990s and worked with his son's companies, part time. His passion was hiking, this was his third "thru hike" on the Appalachian Trail. He enjoyed working out with his "Karate Friends"; he had a first degree brown belt Okinawan Karate. He was an avid reader, often five books at once, reading a chapter or two a day from each. One was the Bible, in which he walked the walk and lived his faith moment by moment. One of his greatest interest was in getting to know people. He always wanted to know what you did and how you did it, from the grocery store to the Appalachian Trail, and left them all with a chuckle and a smile. He also loved clamming, fishing, bird watching, gardening, and "tinkering" with the car and around the house.

Robert is survived by his ex-spouse, Edith Yerike; three siblings, Sandra, Kenneth, and Debra Yerike; six children, Dagny Fiore, Lisl Miner, Stephanie Rosario, Robert Yerike, Julie Cardoso, and Andrew Yerike; Robert is also the loving grandfather of eight grand-children, David Miner, Frances and Gabrielle Fiore, Shayna Yerike, Aaron Rosario, Myla, Paulo, and Juliana Cardoso. The family would like to thank all the people that helped in the monumental rescue of our father: Luke who hiked two miles for a phone signal, Hikers Rainbow and Fire Starter who stayed with our dad during the rescue process. Also Sgt. Bill Chandler of The Maine Warden Service (coordinated the rescue and contact for family), Lt. Kevin Adams of the Maine Game Rangers, The Greenville and Millinocket Fire Departments, EMS workers, and Millinocket Regional Hospital.

"All Men Die, Not All Men Live" (Buffalo Bobby) Dad you lived! Everyone will miss you and you will never be forgotten.

There will be a memorial gathering Thursday, October 6, 2011, 3-5pm with a Service at 5pm, at Weatherhead Young Funeral Home, 885 Mantoloking Rd. Brick, NJ 08723, 732-929-1811. Donations can be made to Appalachian Trail Conservancy, www.appalachiantrail.org In memory of Buffalo Bobbie (Robert M. Yerike).

Why didn't Bob question that woman about Connors? He could said he thought she was going somwhere HE did not want to go. . . then just before 10AM, it came out crystal clear. He wasn't listening, that's why he did not know she was talking about Connors.

Next week Bob should invite Senator Connors to come on his program. To make it fair, Connors challengers should also be invited. Let's hear them.

Why IS Anonymous, anonymous? Sir, or Madam, it irks me to no end that YOU cannot find the intestinal fortitude (GUTS!!) to use your given name! Do you lack self-confidence? Are you wanted (by the law) for crimes against humanity? You're ALWAYS telling people what they SHOULD do, so take the bait and provide yourself with a R-E-A-L identity, PLEASE???!!!

Bill, from Toms River said...

I'm sure Bob made mention of the fact that "60 Minutes" resident curmudgeon, Andy Rooney, made his final appearance on that long-running CBS show, last night. I didn't see it on the blog, but I HAVE to believe that at least one of his callers brought it to his attention. No? Well, I just did.
Andy's pal, Morley Safer, interviewed Andy, and asked him, "Did you like ANYTHING about your life?" The question generated this response from the notorious nit-picking Andy, "I hate to admit it, but I had a great time in World War II."

Well, speaking just for myself, I enjoyed watching and listening to Andy Rooney complaining about just about EVERYTHING under the sun!

APPARENTLY, THEY DIDN'T GET THE MEMO...

The Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to Dr. Ralph Steinman, of Rockefeller University, for his groundbreaking cancer research. There was just one problem: Dr. Steinman died three (3) days before the announcement.

GOP Presidential hopeful (yeah, RIGHT??!!), Ron Paul, denounces the killing of terrorist, Anwar al-Awlaki, as "unconstitutional."

It just goes to prove that not ALL of the nuts are in the Looney, Far-Left segment of what passes for the political spectrum of today. As Bill, from Toms River, says, "opinions are like arseholes, EVERYBODY has one."

Bill, from Toms River said...

I'D BET MY LIFE THAT CHRIS, FROM THE DESERT, KNOWS!!!

A new Vanity Fair/"60 Minutes" poll has revealed that nearly half of all Republicans don't know WHAT the letters, GOP, stand for. And you wonder WHY Obama is in The White House??!! Oh, oh, the letters, GOP, stand for, "Grand Old Party." I betcha' even "Phil," from Brick, knew the answer to THAT question!!

WHERE'S THE JUSTICE???!!!

Twenty-four year old AMERICAN student, Amanda Knox, was released from an Italian prison, yesterday, after being cleared by an Italian appeals court for a murder SHE DID NOT COMMIT. What was Amanda's REAL crime? She was found guilty (FOUR YEAR'S AGO) in a courtroom OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES!!! The dilemma? The United States Constitution and The Bill of Rights is non-existent OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!

QUESTION: WHO is going to give Amanda Knox back the four (4) years of her life that she lost?? In this country, we routinely weep for convicted cop killers that receive lethal injections (after spending countless taxpayer dollars in the LONG appeals process).

WHERE IS THE JUSTICE???!!!

Bill, from Toms River said...

HUH???

The New York Yankees are one-game away from being eliminated from the American League baseball Play-offs.

QUESTION: Did The Yankees JUST play the 2011 baseball season in order to allow Derek Jeter to get his 3000th major-league hit? Remember, think Modell's and Steiner Sports (athletic sportswear and collectibles). In OTHER WORDS, money. Moolah. Cold-hard cash.


No? How about Mariano Rivera's so-called "saves" record? More expensive sports' gear.

QUESTION: Was winning the American League pennant secondary to Hal & Hank Steinbrenner's plans?
I'm a fifty year Yankees fan, and I think it was. Barring a miracle, The Yankees will be watching the rest of the play-offs, and World Series, at home, on TV. This I promise you!!! Bob Levy will be at home, in front of HIS television, rooting for Manager Jim Leyland, and the rest of the Detroit Tigers. It REALLY sickens me that a Tigers victory (over my beloved Yankees) will make Bob Levy happy!

LIBERALS BEING LIBERALS (IN OTHER WORDS, PHONIES).

Yesterday, on "The View," co-hosts, Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd, got into a heated argument over "The N-Word." It was during a discussion on Texas Governor Rick Perry's usage of "The N-Word" on his hunting camp. Sherri Shepherd (who IS black) said it was perfectly all right for Whoopi Goldberg, or herself, to use "The N-Word," but NOT Barbara Walters, who is white. I tell 'ya, Liberals ARE funny!!

After 20 years of singing the theme song to "Monday Night Football" (are you READY for some football?), country music star (and son of country music legend, Hank Williams), Hank Williams, Jr., has been yanked from the telecast because he made an analogy to Adolf Hitler to President B-ROKE Hussein Obama, on the FOX News morning show, "Fox & Friends." Hhhhmmmmm? Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd (both black) CAN use "The N-Word" and Barbara Walters (who is white) CAN'T. On top of that, Hank Williams, Jr., is fired because he exercised his right to Freedom of Speech on a nationally televised TV show? This country IS #$#@ed- up! On top of THAT, Madonna has been chosen to provide the "entertainment" at The Super Bowl Half-time Show, next year.
Hey, Bob? When are you, Phil, Herb, Jack and John ("The Gang of Five") gonna' get OFF the Obama bandwagon, and get ON the things that are REALLY ticking-off Americans, again???!!!

FROM THE PAGES OF THE NEW YORK POST:

BREAKING NEWS...

New Jersey's Governor Chris Christie has just made it official:
He's NOT a candidate for the presidency of the United States. C'mon, Chris, at least Donald Trump dragged it out for half the year!! You just pooped-out after a long weekend!! Wuss!

Bill, from Toms River said...

COACH, WHO IS JOE NAMATH???

"We don't care one bit WHAT Joe Namath has to say. He means NOTHING to us."

- Matt Slauson, Guard,
2011 New York Jets Football
Team.

Hey, Matt? On January 12, 1969, a brash, young quarterback from Coach Bear Bryant's University of Alabama football team, put the old, American Football League on parity with the older, vastly more established National Football League, by virtue of a 16 to 7 drubbing over the eighteen point favorite Baltimore Colts. The quarterback's name was Joe "Willie Namath, who soon became known as Broadway Joe Namath. Broadway Joe was named the Super Bowl's Most Valuable Player, and has achieved legend status because of his, "we're gonna' win the game. I guarantee it," prediction BEFORE the game started. You see, it ain't bragging, IF you can back it up!! Matt, Joe Willie Namath proudly wears a Super Bowl ring, WHAT have YOU done, lately??!!

Bill, from Toms River said...

"NOT MY TIME."

- Governor Chris Christie,
Tuesday, October 4, 2011.

THAT'S the headline in TODAY'S New York Post. Can you imagine HOW brilliantly and efficiently THIS country could be operating, today, IF only B-ROKE Hussein Obama had made THAT statement, back in 2007?
By stepping-over Hillary Rodham Clinton, that year, he DEFINITELY "jumped the shark."
With Hillary and husband Bill at the helm (a Clinton-Co-Presidency!), this country would be humming, today!! Thanks, "Gang of Five." "Change?" How are you guys digging it??? How's YOUR financial portfolio, Bob?? Me? I'm wearing a barrel suit, and selling pencils on the street!

Bill, from Toms River said...

DO YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT "BAGH...(er, forget that!) BOB WAS RIGHT??

In a Pew Research Center poll, just released in The New York Daily News, only 34% of US veterans who served in the military AFTER the 9/11 attacks say that combat in Iraq and Afghanistan was worth it. In a separate companion poll to the article, 87% of poll respondents agreed that it is "time to get out!"

Apparently, ONLY Robert Duvall and I "love the smell of napalm in the morning!!"

Okay, Bob, I'm...sor...I'm...so...I'm sorr...you know? I'm...drat...I CAN'T get that sorry word out...wait, THERE IT IS!! That's what I'm talking about..! I'm sa...sa...sor...Okay, I apolo...apolo...??? You know WHAT I mean...???

WARNING!! WARNING!! WARNING!!

DO NOT READ THE FOLLOWING IF YOU ARE B-ROKE HUSSEIN OBAMA.

Low And Behold Obama Poll Numbers:

According to a new Quinnipiac University poll.

64& disapprove of Obama's handling of the economy.

55% disapprove of his overall job performance.

53% say they are "very dissatisfied with the way things are going in the U.S.

49% say Mitt Romney would do a better job with the economy.

45% say Rick Perry would do better.

77% believe the country was already back in a recession.

TO BE FAIR!!

51% say that George W. Bush is STILL responsible for the faltering enconomy.

32% say that Obama is responsible for the faltering economy.

Of course, on Sunday morning, "Phil," from Brick, will "spin" these poll numbers the way he ALWAYS does!

Thank you "Gang of Five!" When you guys opted for "Change," four years ago, I thought you meant a change in the course of direction in this country. Now, I know you REALLY meant that most of us wouldn't have paper money in our wallets when Obama took over, you meant that we'd ONLY have change (quarters, dimes, nickels and MOSTLY pennies) in our pockets.

ANOTHER ONE (PRESIDENTIAL HOPEFUL) BITES THE DUST.

On Wednesday, Sarah Palin announced that she is NOT running for President, in 2012. Not a real shocker, when you care to think about it. Prior to 2008, WHO ever heard of her? As I have said, here, many time, I personally like "MaMa Grizzly." I like her sound-bites on Fox News.
I can't think of a politician I'd rather field-dress a moose with!!
Okay, Donald Trump is out (was he EVER in?), Chris Christie is out and now Sarah Palin is out. Will the REAL next President of the United States PLEASE stand-up??!!

If lyricist, E.Y. ("Yip") Harburg, and composer, Jay Gorney, had sat down, together, to write a Classic, Great Depression theme song, TODAY, and NOT in 1932, it would probably sound something like this:

BROTHER, CAN YOU SPARE A NICKEL?

Once we had a Clinton,
Praise the Lord,
Life had meaning and hope.
Now we've got Obama,
We're stuck in a pickle,
Brother, can you spare a nickel?

Bob, and "The Gang of Five" (Bob, Phil, Herb, Jack and John) bashed George W. Bush for two presidential terms. Every Sunday!
I believe that turnaround is fair play! Hey, guys, are you diggin' it, yet??!!
