The Fence

 
 
Which side of the fence?
If you ever wondered which side of the fence you sit on, this is a great test!
If a Republican doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one.
If a Democrat doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.  
If a Republican is a vegetarian, he doesn't eat meat.
If a Democrat is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.  
 
If a Republican is homosexual, he quietly leads his life.
If a Democrat is homosexual, he demands legislated respect.  
 
If a Republican is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
If a Democrat is down-and-out, he wonders who is going to take care of him.  
 
If a Republican doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels.
Democrats demand that those they don't like be shut down.  
 
If a Republican is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church. 
A Democrat non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced.
 
If a Republican decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it.
A Democrat demands that the rest of us pay for his.  
 
If a Republican reads this, he'll forward it so his friends know how to vote in November!
A Democrat will delete it because he's "offended".  
 
Well, I forwarded it. 
 I got this in an email and liked it.

Comments

Since I still have my troll creeping along the bottom of my posts I still have to edit my comments.   So unfortunately when I rid myself of the troll droll and try to save everyone else's comments,  only one comment will save.   But I love getting all your comments and thanks for your well wishes on my weight loss and recovery.  Love ya all,  but not you troll face.

Hello all

    Hi everyone.   It's been awhile.   I got my short arm cast off yesterday and am typing with 2 hands, what fun.  My incision looks good, just bruised and swollen and worse is over.   Now to see if it fixed my problem.

   The grandkids are still here and we are having a blast.   Yesterday we may won ton chips using whey low sugar sub. and cinnamon and then some out of dill and salt.   Great chips to dip into the hummus.  The kids had never had hummus but really liked it.  And they couldn't tell the whey low was a sugar substitute and loved them.   The later we made cookies.  Not low fat, LOL but they had fun.   I am keeping them so busy they don't miss the TV we don't have.  It has been so fun having them around again.

   I went to OT yesterday on my hand.  I still have the stitches in and won't get those out until Monday so we are watching them carefully since I have a tendency to react to them.  So far so good.  And I am back to doing my workouts.  No weights yet because I can't with this wrist but I am doing well 1 week after surgery.

    So I see Al Franken had a large convicted felon following on the last election,  I bet even dead people liked and voted for him, what a huge surprise.   And they say they can't do anything about it?   Why not.   Why can't we do anything about voting fraud?   Why is he still in office and why is he still on the payroll?   Would you be?  Would I.   I am so sick of the entire corrupt mess.

  Yesterday top news about Mel Gibson yelling at his girlfriend but you also had a Black panther advocating killing all cracker babies and being threatening at the voter polls and you don't hear nary a thing.   KKK in black robes but that's OK?  Racial hate is never OK.  Never.  No matter what race but apparently we have gone back 60 years. 

   I was watching a jazz show the other day and I couldn't help but notice that musicians alway's get along regardless of race.   They admire each other based on their talents and skill, not on their color.   We should all learn from them.

  Oh, and I have had another visit from the census taker.  3rd one so far.   What's up with that.  Makes you wonder about how accurate that will be when they can't even cross you off the list when they have seen you.  Info is still the same.  2 adults, one male, one female.  Ta.

    Well I have been slowly catching up on the blogs.   With the kids here I don't seem to get on the computer much.  Hope everyone is doing well.

I Live

  The surgery went well.  I am pretty sore, much sorer than last time but that should get better soon.  Thanks for the well wishes.

Surgery tomorrow


Created by MyFitnessPal - Free Weight Loss Tools

Tomorrow is the day of my surgery.    At this point I am just anxious to get it over with.   I worked my last shift for awhile last night.   I made my mini goal of losing another 8 pounds before surgery.   I will be almost 40 pounds lighter then the last time I had this wrist worked on.   Sure hope it works this time.  I am getting a extended warrenty this time.   Oh and Missy,  my knee is still messed up.  Better but if I step wrong,  oh man.  Joy of aging.

The grandkids are here and we have been having so much fun.   Bike riding and playing in the pool.   They are getting so big.   Both are good cooks and they have been making us breakfast,  that's cool.   But that is why I haven't been around much,  plus my computer crashed and it took me this long to figure out how to fix it.    No more letting my grandson play on it, LOL.   

Hope everyone had a great 4th and a safe one.   Let Freedom ring.   Sleeping through the canon's my neighbor let off was a challenge but I made it and Zoey survived her least favorite holiday again.   She hates the firecrackers.

Well,   I have to continue to reload my computer.   I lost all my email address's so drop me a line so I can add them again.  Without the viagra attachment, LOL.

More on "Free Health Care" get ready for sky high taxes

And here we go...aren't those people that thought this would be "FREE", going to be surprised.
   You really need to read this……starts next year This is supposed to be part of the new Health Care Bill. I contacted my Congressman about House bill HR3590 the health care bill
Just passed. I asked for a summary of changes.
The aid directed me to go to www:
thomas.gov ; enter HR3590 in the search
Box and look for summaries. 
  Starting in 2011 (next year folks) your W 2 tax form sent by your employer
Will be increased to show the value of what ever health insurance you are
Given by the company. It does not matter if that's a private concern or
Governmental body of some sort. If you're retired ? So what; your gross Will go up by the amount of insurance you get.


The dollar value (cost of what the company pays for your insurance) will be considered income
and added to your gross pay. You will be taxed on the total


 
You will be required to pay taxes on a large sum of money that you have
Never seen.

Take your tax form you just finished and see what $15,000 or $20,000
Additional gross does to your tax debt. That's what you'll pay next year.
For many it also puts you into a new higher bracket so it's even worse.

This is how the government is going to buy insurance for 15 % that don't
Have insurance and it's only part of the tax increases.

Not believing this I researched the summaries and here's what I'm reading:

On page 25 of 29 :

TITLE IX REVENUE PROVISIONS- SUBTITLE A: REVENUE OFFSET PROVISIONS-(sec .
9001 , as modified by sec. 10901)
Sec.9002.  "requires employers to include in the W-2 form of each employee
The aggregate cost of applicable employer sponsored group health coverage
That is excludable from the employees gross income."

Grandchildren

  Tomorrow the grandkids will be here.   I am so excited I can't sleep.   But also we have a tornado watch going on right now so I am having trouble sleeping due to that also.   It is lighting and thundering out.   I hope the rest of the tree doesn't come down.


    I spent much of the day in the pool today since it was soooo hot.   And being the good little skin cancer survivor that I am I am burnt.   I used sun screen,  it just wasn't enough.   Bummer.


   My surgery is getting closer and closer.   I am getting more and more nervous.   I am so sick and tired of getting cut up.   Please cross your fingers that this surgery works and I am never going to have any surgery again.

  Otherwise not much going on.   Exercising a lot so I am stick and sore most of the time.   Gee, it wasn't this hard getting in shape when I was younger.   Still losing slowly but losing which is a good thing.   Finally broke down and went down 2 sizes in pants.   Couldn't keep them up anymore.


   Well,  the thunder is getting closer.  Time to shut down the computers .  Hope the worst misses us.
