Wonderful

So now I know why Mr. Obama kept Gates around, he is a clueless as our President is. One of the activities that the federal government is constitutionally required to do is secure our nation, not schools, not banks, not hire and fire ceos of auto companies, but simple security. So why is our Secretary of Defense telling the world we are 'not prepared' to counteract the upcoming launch of a North Korean Missle.

Gates: U.S. Not Prepared to Respond to North Korea Missile Launch

This is bad, even I know that the answer to the question is: I can't discuss that.

This administration is worse than I thought it was going to be.

This makes my head hurt

Terror inmates may be released in US: intel chief

Oh, and they are going to give them welfare too:

President Barack Obama's intelligence chief confirmed Thursday that some Guantanamo inmates may be released on US soil and receive assistance to return to society.

"If we are to release them in the United States, we need some sort of assistance for them to start a new life," said National Intelligence Director Dennis Blair at his first press conference.

"You can't just put them on the street," he added. "All that is work in progress."

I wonder if they will be drug tested?

Missed a day

I missed yesterday, anyone that knows what is going on in my life at the moment understands why. Hey, I did get concrete poured in Cheney,not bad for a guy 9 weeks out of a rotator cuff repair!
So I didn't gather any interesting news articles to gripe about, that is, until today.

The first is this: Rahm Emanuel's profitable stint at mortgage giant
we all know that if this had been a republican it would be wall to wall news, but it is not, so it is not news. Heck George Bush stood next to Ken Lay once and the news talked about it for days. Crooks, thieves, and cheats, that is the administration y'all elected, once again, I hope you are happy.

Then, I came across this: States consider drug tests for welfare recipients And figured that maybe some important people are reading my blog!

Lawmakers in at least eight states want recipients of food stamps, unemployment benefits or welfare to submit to random drug testing.

It is about time, I had to take a drug test to get the job that pays for their welfare, it only makes sense that they should be tested to take my money!

more Press Conference

I do agree that if the embryo is going to be discarded, if the family agrees, it can be used, by the PRIVATE sector of the science community.

Rita's water ice has arrived, more important than this liar.

end of the press conference

uh, uh, uh, ummm

Did I get it?

talking about regulating, that means taking over as linked to below.
Image in the world? They are laughing at us, at him especially.

No need for global currency

Politico??? Cut mortgage rates for charities?

He is campaigning again, what is going on here. The 95% number again...what is he talking about, only 40% of the people in the country pay taxes. I am sick of the lies.

Why does the President think it is a good thing to foment class warfare?

Ruining the charitable contributions. BS, more than 1%, I deduct it you idiot, I am not rich.

Fair? what about crack heads that do not have to take a drug test to get welfare? is that fair to me?

He is going to help chairities by taxing the rich more...dumb.

1 in 50 children are homeless? Tent cities? BS

This whole thing is a setup, a socialistic setup. I want to see the data on the 1 in 50 number, that is a huge lie. It must be based on rent numbers...homeowners.

everyone knows that there are fewer...shoot, he just mentioned veterens, when they have to pay for thier own health care, they will be more homeless.

Some suprised woman...wants to talk about race...are you black? do you talk about being black?

I think I want to puke.

Washington Times...more lies about stem cells, like he was the first to federally funded stem cells, Bush was the first. Adult stem cells are working, this is a science issue, not a government issue, and federal funds should not be used. Maybe tax breaks, but not funds.

It is called 'nationalization',

Or, for those of you who are not paying attention, it is the first step towards COMMUNISM, skipping right over socialism.

The Obama administration is considering asking Congress to give the Treasury secretary unprecedented powers to initiate the seizure of non-bank financial companies, such as large insurers, investment firms and hedge funds, whose collapse would damage the broader economy, according to an administration document.

I freakin' hope those of you who voted for the man are happy, we warned you.

Montgomery Gentry - While The World Goes Down The Drain lyrics

(Jim Rushing/Keith Sewell)

Some kids grew up on mean streets
Dealin' with the crips and bloods
But me I was born on a back road
In a 4X4 rollin' through the mud 

The street kid deals with the dealer
And he's always watchin' his back
Me, I'm watchin' a line, with a woman of mine
Down by the creek bank shack 

Give me .308 and a shotgun
And a gallon of homemade wine
Drop me off on a mountainside
Where the bear and the deer reside
I'll spend my nights sittin' round the fire
Makin' this guitar ring
I'll be doin' fine underneath the pines
While the world goes down the drain 

Just to dwell on life in the city
Is makin' my blood run cold
'Cause miles and miles of concrete
Eats away at the human soul 

When you live and die in the country
There's a little that your heart can mourn
With your hands in the dirt and a little work
You can weather out any storm 

Give me .308 and a shotgun
And a gallon of homemade wine
Drop me off on a mountainside
Where the bear and the deer reside
I'll spend my nights sittin' round the fire
Makin' this guitar ring
I'll be doin' fine underneath the pines 
While the world goes down the drain 

I'll be doin' fine underneath the pines 
While the world goes down the drain



Lyrics | Montgomery Gentry lyrics - While The World Goes Down The Drain lyrics

Read the second post below to understand why I posted this. There is no video on you tube.

Santa Monica

Not a great version but the only one I could find that was legal to post here.

Read the post below to understand why I put it up.

Interesting thought

I was working today, had the I-pod on speakers, and caught a Montgomery-Gentry song with the lyrics:

I'll be doin' fine underneath the pines
While the world goes down the drain

Which then made me think of the Everclear song with the lyics:

Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die

Not me, sure, I like those songs, but not the sentiment of watching while the world goes down. I guess I must be a doer, a person that is going to fight for the things that have meaning to me. One of those things is the United States, another is this planet we live on. We can save our Country, and the world will follow. Just do not sit back and let things happen, go out and make them happen.
Yeah, this little blog isn't much, and I have trouble getting even my family to read it, but I guarantee that it is read by someone in the White House. Every time I mention the name of the President, I bet some little bell goes off and some staffer in the basement logs in to make sure I am not some insane right wing nut.
I am not, by the way, I just enjoy life in a free society and am deathly afraid of socialism and communism, both have been tried, both have killed millions, and both have failed.

Okay, back on point. Do not just sit abound, join something and make a difference, even if it is as simple as a scout troop or a street clean up crew.

Obama Kisses Iranian Butt

ON the occasion of the Persian New Year, President Barack Obama has videotaped a personal statement to the Iranian people which is being portrayed in the Western media as a significant change

This article is in the Arab News...earlier, right after the speech, the Arab News was all over the greeting, lapping it up as the appeasement that it was. Now:

One may well agree that improving relations between the two countries “will not be advanced by threats”, but who has been threatening whom? Has Iran been threatening a “preventive” (i.e., unprovoked and aggressive) attack on the United States? Has Iran been insisting that “military action” remains “on the table” if the United States does not bow to Iranian demands? One may also agree that no country’s “rightful place in the community of nations” should be reached “through terror and arms”. Yet it is the United States which brought “shock and awe” (the American marketing term for “terror” when unleashed by the United States) to the region six years ago this month, and it is the United States which spends more on arms than the rest of the world combined.

Oh, and let us not forget that this article was written by an Israeli hating scum-bucket.

EFCA, anything but

Three of America’s biggest brand-name companies — Costco, Starbucks and Whole Foods — are reportedly planning to announce an alternative next week to the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA), which would help workers organize much more easily into unions if passed.

This is nuts, at least the opponents come back with the truth:

“Every worker in America has the right to a secret ballot vote in union-organizing elections, free from intimidation or recrimination,” said Katie Packer, executive director of the Workforce Fairness Institute. “Calling a proposal which exposes 70 percent of employees to intimidation instead of 50 percent a ‘compromise’ is beyond absurd.”

We, as citizens, have the right to a secret ballot, only those who are in an elected position vote openly, that way, the people who elected them can hold them accountable.
This 'card check' opens up intimidation on both sides of the issue, how can that be right?

It just keeps coming

The Obama administration will call for increased oversight of executive pay at all banks, Wall Street firms and possibly other companies as part of a sweeping plan to overhaul financial regulation, government officials said.

NY Times, not politico, not some right wing blog, but the NY Times.

HE CAN NOT REGULATE EXECUTIVE PAY.

This is insane, when will it end?

Link Dump

Go read them, I am too sick and tired of what is going on to even comment on some of this:

Pelosi Tells Illegal Immigrants That Work Site Raids are Un-American what is it about the word ILLEGAL she doesn't understand?

$750 billion "green" investment could revive economy: U.N. Well now, it didn't work here yet, and we have spent over a trillion. Oh, and the money will come from an oil tax, which will be passed on to those who buy gas and oil...which will wreck the economy. Freaking idiots.

EXCLUSIVE: Obama's $500,000 book bonanza From the link:

analysts say there don't appear to be any rules that would bar such transactions after a president takes office, but it's unclear whether an incoming or sitting president has ever signed a book deal upon entering the White House.

"I don't recall any sitting president entering into a book deal," said campaign finance lawyer Jan Baran, former general counsel to the Republican National Committee. "They all have historically done that after they leave office.

More crap from Mr. Obama, he is a celebrity, not a President.

And more on the celebrity side:
Obama-Leno taping The first time ever a sitting President has done this...

Attorney general signals shift in marijuana policy Gee...didn't see that coming.

Socialism

"Recipients of these bonuses will not be able to keep all of their money," declared Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in an unusually strong threat delivered on the Senate floor.

"If you don't return it on your own, we will do it for you," echoed Chuck Schumer of New York.

Our elected leaders want to take money away from private citizens, just because they feel bad about the bonus situation. The bonuses were contracted payments, they can not be taken away.

This is driving me nuts, take away all the welfare payments when anyone on assistance is caught with drugs, when the government starts to do that, well, then they can mess with these bonuses, until then, shut up.

UPDATE
The house voted to steal the money back from the people who earned it. This is insane, our government simply deciding that certain American citizens are to be taxed at special rates?

what is going on?

Pardon Me?

I think I need a "Joe said what?" post every week, just to try and figure out where our Vice President is coming from. Here is his latest:

Biden said President Obama "has inherited the most difficult first 100 days of any president, I would argue, including Franklin Roosevelt."

The he compounds it and says:

“Let me explain what I mean by that," he added. "It was clear the problem Roosevelt inherited. This is a more complicated economic [problem]. We’ve never ever been here before – here or in the world. Never ever been here before."

So, let me get this straight, Jan 2008, unemployment at 75, Jan. 1933, unemployment rate was over 20%, and it stayed there all year, actually going up!

This is not the Great Depression, as I have written too many times to count. Look outside you house right now, how many cars does your family own?

I am going nuts, I guess the idea is to pretend that the world is over, right now, this is the worst ever, ever, ever, so that as long as we are alive at the end of the yead, Mr. Obama can be labeled as the greatest President of all time.

Mr. Biden needs to learn a little historym, and for that matter, so do the people in the media, where are the reporters lambasting him for being so uninformed? He is the Vice President, for petes sake, he should know this stuff.

Jus' Sayin'

Here we go, the headline reads:
Amid AIG Furor, Dodd Tries to Undo Bonus Protections He Put In

And the article points of that Chris Dodd, senator from Connecticut, where AIG is headquarted, received over $100,000 last year in campaign contributions from AIG. Now, he added a surprise amendment to the stimulus package that exempted any contractual bonus from scrutiny if it was prior to Feb 2009.

I wonder if there is anything to this?

Kidding, right?

I'm sorry, but this strikes me as rather funny, really, can the Mexican government be serious?
Mexico to impose sanctions on US exports

So this is all about Mr. Obama and the dems kissing teamster butt, I don't actually care why, I like the fact that they stood up to Mexico and killed the crap that Clinton created with NAFTA. No Mexican trucks in America, sounds good to me, but for Mexico to suggest tariffs over this is hilarious.
I'll tell you what Mexico, take back those 12 million citizens of yours that you have dumped on us and then we'll talk about tariffs. Oh, and don't they realize it is the damn lettuce that the illegals are picking that is going to cost more money in Mexico now? which will lower the demand for lettuce...which will lower the demand for pickers...which will send back...Oh, wait a minute...Tariff away!!!!

Think about something here...

Obama: AIG can't justify 'outrage' of exec bonuses

So we all all up in arms about tax money going to bonuses that were earned by these guys due to clauses in contracts. Let us simply forget that we are talking about a billion dollar company and the bonuses are in the millions. Let us forget that even if the companies we work for are doing poorly, we all want our Christmas bonus, and most of all, let us all forget welfare.

Yeah,I said welfare. I am not allowed to demand that the men and women in Coatesville Pa who are on welfare take drug tests before getting my tax dollars. We all know that some of those people are spending taxpayer money on drugs,yet say that out loud and you are labeled. Personally I am sick of it.

So, from now on, when someone says to you that it is a bad thing that AIG is spending millions on bonuses, mention that welfare losers are spending millions on drugs. The drugs hurt the country, the bonuses will help, they will be spent, drug money goes back to Mexico, South America, or the Middle East.

Yeah, so 80's, but, life

Free Form

Just another rant, another stream of unconscious nothingness.
Our President has now tried to say that the economy is fine, on it's way back, I guess someone told him that talking it down wasn't working, we don't want socialism.
Phil finally won at Doral, but was quoted in the papers as wanting Tiger closer at the end...yeah right.
Why do the birthdays of your children always make you feel older?
Local politics are relatively boring here in PA,, can't wait to change that!

Nothing more to say, really, that seems to be it.

happy birthday Bill

This oughta be good

Russia weighs Cuba, Venezuela bases: report

Not a whole lot to say as I do not have much confidence that our President will do anything about this, then, it scares the heck out of me that he will do something stupid to prove he is strong.

What have y'all done to my Country?

Kick. Them. Out. NOW.

Frankly, I am suprised that the White House objected to this:

The White House objected Thursday to U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's description of the United States as a "deadbeat" donor to the world body.
Ban used the phrase Wednesday during a private meeting

The Un, whom we carry to the tune of 22% of thier funding, can get the heck out of this country, let France pick up 22$, or, better yet, Africa, they are the continent that uses the UN the most, let them pay for it.

We saw it coming

Obama's Poll Numbers Are Falling to Earth

This will be spun in some way I am sure, but I still love to see sentences like this:

Polling data show that Mr. Obama's approval rating is dropping and is below where George W. Bush was in an analogous period in 2001.

or this:

A detailed examination of presidential popularity after 50 days on the job similarly demonstrates a substantial drop in presidential approval relative to other elected presidents in the 20th and 21st centuries. The reason for this decline most likely has to do with doubts about the administration's policies and their impact on peoples' lives.

I guess we don't want socialism after all. Let us all hope now that he wants to be re-elected, that will further slow his insane policy pushes. Back to the Middle, oh-not-so-great-one!

Another Criminal in the Cleanest Administration EVER!

WASHINGTON - An employee of the D.C. Office of the Chief Technology Officer and a private contractor were charged with corruption Thursday after an FBI raid at the former office of one of President Obama's appointees, Vivek Kundra.

Kundra is on leave from his White House job until further details of the case become known, a White House source tells the Associated Press.

So is this the change we can believe in?

Gotta laugh at these things

So in the news today is the fact that:Global and Northern Hemisphere Tropical Cyclone Activity [still] lowest in 30-years WHich is not what we have been hearing from the AGW crowd. Of course, the science (that was once a 'consensus') is split over the whole hurricane connection. A simple google search of the terms Hurricane Activity Global Warming paints a very confusing picture. Science sites go both ways, of course NOAA claims that hurricanes will increase due to AGW but we all know that that is only so they get more money.

Maybe now that the data shows that this AGW crap is not causing more storms the fanatics will move on...yeah, right.

More Cognative Dissonance

The Iraqi journalist who threw shoes at President George W. Bush was convicted yesterday

Okay, he was making a political statement, more power to the idiot. The problem with the reactions of the Arabs around the world, is that had he tossed a freakin shoe at Saddam Hussien, he would be DEAD right now. Had he even dared to speak out against the regime in Iraq prior to the American led liberation, he would be DEAD.

Ungrateful people, not all of the Iraqis, but this one for sure.

The Arab News article is full of stupid statements regardign how wonderful this guy is and how terrible the United States is...how can they look at themselse in the mirror after printing those lies?

Lets101 - Online Dating

from a long time ago

When I was young, when the world was in a recession, I had a Job. This was the eighties, I was 16, washing dishes. The 'breakdown' was, to be honest, nuts. Every pot and pan, everything came to me, add to that the normal plates and glasses as well as all the other crap that needed done, and you had one busy teenager. I wouldn't change those hours for anything, I learned great habits, I learned that hard work was rewarded, if not by huge amounts of money, then by respect.

Now, in another recession, my 16 year old son has a job, my 14 year old son has a job and the 12 year old wants a job.

I love my life, I love most of the things I have done, and I love most of the people I have befriended, you know who you are.

We will persevere, we will come out of this strong, and our kids will learn the value of hard work.
Those libs? Not so much.

Gonna save it

I am simply linking this story here so I can come back to it in a few weeks, or months as the case may be, and reference the BS being spewed.

Signing Statement by Mr. Obama

So here we go, I wonder how quickly he will ignore this as he has ignored almost every other ethical promise he made in the last two years?

Democrats Suck

I'm sorry for the title, but it is true. One Sheriff in the Country is doing something about the illegal immigrants so the democrats call for him to be investigated for racial profiling and other stupid civil rights 'violations', uhhh, illegal immigrants have NO RIGHTS in this country, when will the democrats understand that? They are breaking the laws of the land, idiots, that is what illegal means.
Here is the link, go ahead and read it and feel sorry for the illegals, I dare you. Yanno what? Most of the illegal immigrants from Mexico look MEXICAN, heck, 75% of them either spot Mexican colors or a Mexican flag on their houses and cars, so of course it would make sense to check people who look Mexican for immigration status.
No job? Blame the dems who want to keep all the illegals here (and George Bush as well).

Juxtaposition

So, many people are prdicting the end of the world, Al Gore blames it on AGW, the left eats it up. Mr. Obama blames it on Bush, the left eats it up. A Famed pastor predicts imminent catastrophe and I am sure the left, and the Media will label this guy a freak.
I think that they are all freaks, that is my observation. The end is not near, tough times are near. Life has been tough for Billions for a long time, we in America have NO FREAKING IDEA what it is like to live poor, not one iota. I don't have a clue. When I was 'poor' I had water, food, a car, a roof, school for the kids, and friends. I was poor by American standards, it was tough, and I am full of crap.
Tough is walking for water, tough is no roof, no education, and waiting for food.
Grow up everyone, just because you can't buy a new car this year, or can't go to the next Micheal Jackson concert (while I can still afford to go see the Dead), there is no reason to panic. I notice the Baseball season has not been canceled, nor have salaries dropped. I notice that Football teams are still paying players millions of dollars...sure, bad depression, real bad.
When we all have to scrounge for food, then I will admit that times are bad, until then, skipping a few Starbucks trips is not a sacrifice.

WOW

I think this works, not sure. Anyway, it was over at Crouchy Old Cripple, I enjoy that site, like I enjoy Gotta Get Drunk First. They may not be family oriented, but they also pull no punches. I think Denny at GOC got this from Black Five, a site I go to sparingly, but I do hit every once in a while. There are many conservative blogs on the net, some are rated g, some PG (like this one) and others are rated R. Try them all, we can learn from the information out there!

I am not trying to piggyback on the work of those other blogs, I am just trying to send a little traffic their way. Some of my readers will enjoy them, others will not, but remember, it will take all kinds to take back the Country.

Conneting the dots

I am not normally a conspiricy nut, but this is getting awful close to reality to not have merit. First, there are many people who are accusing the left of using the Cloward-Piven strategy to create the need for socialism in America. The idea was to create a crisis with welfare and then show that the way is was set up (in the 60's) was not working and we would have to revamp our entire system. Defined as


* Strategy for forcing political change through orchestrated crisis

this process has not worked quite as well as the authors of it desired. So leftists created another crisis so they could use socialism to fix it, Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW), or human caused climate change depending on the day.
This is a false crisis and any search of the word myth and AGW will lead to a host of scientists who debunk the AGW claims.
Okay, so how do the two come together? Here is how:

Never waste a good crisis, Clinton says on climate

I had to read the article to see if the headline was true of if Reuters was trying to play to the right for a change, well, here is her quote:

Clinton told young Europeans at the European Parliament global economic turmoil provided a fresh opening: "Never waste a good crisis ... Don't waste it when it can have a very positive impact on climate change and energy security."

Of course Reuters did not connect the dots, they continued on as if this was a wonderful thing for Mrs. Clinton to say.
Now I am begining to believe that the Clintons want to rule the world, not just the US and they are using Obama as a front in that endeavor.

Some Ozzy to mess with people

This is socialism

Wake up America, this is what happens when you elect a socialist:

Venezuela's Hugo Chavez tightens state control of food amid rocketing inflation and food shortages
President Hugo Chavez is tightening state control over Venezuela's food supply, setting quotas for food staples which are to be sold at government-imposed prices.

Our leftists love this man, he is a man of the people, so they say, they flock to be at his side.
There is 30% inflation in that country, BECAUSE of socialism, the farmers can not produce the food at the prices he is forcing them to accept.
Damn it people, it has not worked, ever, anywhere, at anytime.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results...the left is insane.

Ummmm, NO

Insanity

Ballarino said he similarly forwards jabs at other communities. "I get jokes and I send them. I get redneck jokes. I get Irish jokes. I get Italian jokes."

I am not posting the link, or discussing this because I think the idiot quoted above is right, I think the NAACP is wrong.
Jokes are just that, jokes. If a person, or a group, can not take a joke, then they have the problem, not the teller. If the joke is over some line to some person, well, that person has every right to be offended.
That person does not have the right to not be offended, not in America.
The NAACP, of course, has the right to protest this guy, over his jokes, but maybe the time would be better spent going after people who make racist statements in nationally televised speeches, oh, maybe like:
"Just as black anger often proved counterproductive, so have these white resentments"

Anger and resentment, they are not equal, they were juxtaposed for a reason, and that reason was racist. The speaker should have used the same word for both races, if he was honestly trying to heal past wounds, but he was not, he was hoping those wounds would fester a little more, so his wife could finally be proud, so he could be elected President.

We will never get past race in this country until the grievance mongers get past race in this country.

More clenched fists

It seems that Mr. Obama is being perceived as weak by the rest of the world. This sucks because we all saw it coming, well, those of us that cared saw it as a problem, those on the left, where appeasement is all the rage, thought the weakness was a reason to elect the empty suit.
'Haggling,' however, was not 'productive,' Medvedev said.
So Mr. Obama offers to surrender our missile defenses, Russia says, okay, but on our terms. I will post the response of our President, if he shows mettle, I will support him, if not, I will rip him a little more.

Model it for me???

I think not. It seems that at lingerie shops in Saudi Arabia, only men may work as sales-people.
This would ruin the tactic of an old friend of mine who used to garner sympathetic smiles from the hot sales girls at Victoria's Secret. He liked to ask the girls to try on the lingerie, since they looked to be about his girlfriends size. I know of no time that this ever worked.

Okay, I didn't post this to prove that at one time I was immature and had immature friends, I think we were 16 or 17 when we were ogling the lingerie. The point is that this practice in SA is insane.
Remember, this is a place where women are banned from driving and must not leave the house without a male escort.
What struck me from the article was that things may be opening up, there is a law on the books (in a drawer) that allows women to work in those shops, it just is not enforced. This cause is being championed on FaceBook, maybe technology will help bring SA at least a little closer to he 21st century.

Deal with devils

In return for empty promises our President vows to make us weaker, as well as abandon decades long allies in Europe.
Obama 'ready to drop shield plans for Russian help on Iran'
Insanity, those missiles protect US bases as well as European countries, those missiles keep Russia honest, and those missiles will be the only defense WHEN Iran loads an atomic weapon onto a missile supplied by Russia:

"Last year (2005), Russia surpassed the United States as the developing world’s leader in arms deals, according to a new report by the Congressional Research Service (CRS). But Russia has increased military shipments to anti-U.S. states like Iran and Venezuela,"

So, once again we need to decide if Mr. Obama is naive or if he truly wants to weaken America. There will be a point in time, if we are still asking this question, when the answer will be very obvious.

Jus me

Once again, I am going to just vent a little, give you my mind. We elected a socialist, there should be no surprise that he is trying hard to destroy the country. I have not decided if he really wants America to fail or if he is so arrogant that he thinks that he is the One to make a proven to fail system to work, after hundreds of attempts.
Yeah, whatever.
The world is a strange place, and I have strange ideas, but I love my family, my friends, and nothing political will change that. Americans, no, Humans have this intense need to belong, to be a part of something, and to be needed. That is a fact, it can not be argued. We need to love to survive, no matter who we are.
Television sucks, it grabs you and draws you in, and the next thing you know 5 hours have passed and you can't even remember what Rachel Ray was making that was so interesting.
I wonder if this recession is going to force people to stay in their homes longer, giving me many walls and patios to build, or if people are just going to go broke and not spend anything.
Fist bumps, soul patches, piercings in odd places drive me nuts. I can deal with tattoos, to a point, I can deal with the ears being pierced, but lips? Tongues? Noses? get real...sorry, that is my opinion. You are not being edgy, you are following the crowd, you have not made any statement other than you want to be like everyone else.
This is like those leftist art installments that degrade Christianity, it's been done people, why not try to be really edgy and do the same to Islam? Oh, that's right, 'cause you will be killed.
Anyway, Y'all have a great week, I'll try to get out of the non-politic funk tomorrow.
