Bits and Peices

      Well,  haven't made a real entry for awhile.    Yesterday was our 37 year anniversary.   Seems so hard to believe.  Seems like just yesterday we were holding hands in front of the Justice of Peace.   Rick started squeezing my hand so hard out of nerves right before the judge asked me to say I do I ripped my hand out of his and said ouch!   He still will unconsciously squeeze my hand when he is nervous, LOL.    Rick has been sick for about a week and a half.   So we didn't go out to celebrate.   He is feeling better today so we are going to the gym and see how he survives that.   Maybe we will go out tonight or tomorrow.   His birthday was last week and I tease him about how old age had finally caught up with him.   If he doesn't get well soon I will have to drag his butt to the doc.

     We were standing out in the backyard last night.   It was a clear nice night with lots of stars.   A large racoon came up and started raiding our feeders,  not a all afraid of us,  to the left a well racked buck walked across the lawn and drank from the bird bath.  Some bunnies bounces by.   It was surreal and beautiful.  Life is surreal and beautiful.   What a moment.

     I found a super great site.   I love socks.  Wild socks.   But I have my momma's calfs.   The site called sockdreams.com has the greatest socks.  From the practical to the wild side.   Christmas shopping here I go though I must admit more were for me then to give as gifts.

     I have been doing my shopping.  Have you?  Seems like it was just yesterday we opened last years gifts.   It bothers me the year goes so fast but winter still creeps by.   I try to enjoy each and every day.

     My soon to be step grandson has Asperger's.   He is a sweet loving child.  Some bully at school couldn't appreciate the sweet qualities and has been bullying him.   It progressed until he threw my step grandson down a flight of stairs.   It is amazing he wasn't killed.  He did fracture a vertebrae in his back. The school has it all on tape.   Now he is having a lot of stress about going to school.   He just doesn't understand it.   The school has come through but we worry now when we send him off to school.  So parents and grandparents.   Talk to your children.  Teach tolerance and acceptance of each and everyone's individuality.   This kids parents were horrified to find out their son did this.   He could have killed our step grandchild.  This has been very upsetting.

   The elections went pretty good.   Can't believe Harry Reid made it but thinking about my last post I have a pretty good idea why he did.   I think they should recount all his votes and throw out most of them.   And once again the military wasn't allowed to vote but some state hand delivered ballots to a prison where they weren't suppose to be able to vote in the first place.   But all in all it looks like people are waking up to what could happen.

    Now I would like to see the people put a stop to Obama's India trip which is going to cost the taxpayers a bundle. The president will be accompanied by 40 aircraft, 3,000 people, a fleet of cars and 34 warships, according to a string of blow-by-blow news updates. The Press Trust of India quoted an official in the state of Maharashtra pegging the cost at $200 million a day.  That will be 200 million of taxpayers money.   He still doesn't get it.  He still thinks of us as his big piggy bank.   Every single American should call the White House and say Stay Home Mr. President.   With the economy in the toilet,  so many people out of work.   What an insult this is.

     Then you have a couple of democrats.  Sen Tom Harkin is one of them,   who wants to pass this in the next lame duck session . Democrats in the Senate  held a recess hearing covering a taxpayer bailout of  union pensions and a plan to seize private 401(k) plans to more "fairly" distribute taxpayer-funded pensions to everyone.  They would call it a Guaranteed Retirement Account.    You would get a monthy allowance of your money and when you die your children would only get half of the money you spent your entire adult life saving.   It's mad but expect that in the lame duck session coming soon.  Harkin's is from Iowa I am ashamed to say.

    So it still will be business as usual in Washington and their business is relieving us,  the taxpayer, of our money.  sigh.

    Otherwise what else is new?   I hit my 30 year mark at work!   30 years in the same job.  I never thought I would stay at the same place this long.  Many different departments but same building.   11 more years to go and I can retire.   Doing the countdown here.

     Well,  I am going to finish this up and do some surfing of blogs I have severely neglected during the election month.     I was busy supporting my candidates.  Ta all.

Latest Voting Fraud Update

    Makes you wonder if any of these are ever not dirty.   OK,  they had 7 months to send the ballets to our military men and women......  7 months!   Well they didn't send them in time.   Once again the people fighting for our country can't vote.   What is Washington afraid of?

   Then the weird but not surprising.   When voting in Las Vegas the only person it will let you vote for is Harry Reid.   You vote Republican,  Harry Reid gets punched in.  People were complaining.  Loudly.    So they call in the people who are the union people repairing the machines and guess who surface?   SEIU, formally known as ACORN.  Yup,  they are the ones who set the machines up and who do the repairs.   Now why doesn't that surprise me at all.   So people.  check your ballets after you've voted to make sure it took your real vote.

Latest Voting fraud

 Remember when I told you about the lady going to the nursing home and canvasing votes with patients that weren't completely competent,  she was getting votes for Obama?  Thank goodness the nurse thought something was fishy and kicked her out of one home but how many others did that happen in and how many is that happening now.   Funny how they only bring Democrat ballots.   We need to make absentee voting harder and have a way to double check the vote.   Anyway,  check out this article today.   How many other schools is this happening at?

 

Lawsuit alleges Ohio high school students taken out of school to vote Democrat

By: Steve October 20, 2010

Three busloads of students from an Ohio high school were taken during school hours to participate in early voting and only given Democratic sample ballots. According to a lawsuit filed on Monday, students from Hughes high school in Cincinnati left school at 1 p.m. with school personnel. When they got out of the vans, it is alleged that the students were accompanied by adults who appeared to be campaign workers for Rep. Steve Driehaus (D-OH). They were given only sample ballots for the Democratic party and later taken out for ice cream after voting.
A lawsuit now seeks to prevent school officials from helping students participate in partisan activities during school hours. The concern is that the teacher’s unions, who usually support Democratic candidates, are coercing these students to vote on behalf of those candidates. There is apparently a plan to bring four more schools to vote this week. The school does not deny that the students were taken out of school, only saying that the activity was totally nonpartisan.

Heaven or Hell

     HEAVEN AND HELL
   
     While walking down the street one day a Corrupt Senator
     was tragically hit by a car and died.
   
     His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the
     entrance.
   
     "Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle
     in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around
     these parts, you see, so we're not
     sure what to do with you."
   
     "No problem, just let me in," says the Senator..
   
     "Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from the higher
    ups. What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven.
     Then you can choose where to spend
     eternity."
   
     "Really?, I've made up my mind. I want to be in heaven,"
     says the Senator.
   
     "I'm sorry, but we have our rules."
   
     And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and
     he goes down, down, down to hell.
   
     The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a
     green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front
     of it are all his friends and
     other politicians who had worked with him.
   
     Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to
     greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had
     while getting rich at the expense
     of the people. They played a friendly game of golf and
     then dine on lobster, caviar and the finest champagne.
   
     Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly
     guy who is having a good time dancing and telling jokes.
   
     They are all having such a good time that before the
     Senator realizes it, it is time to go.
   
     Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the
     elevator rises...
   
     The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens in
     heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him, "Now it's time to visit
     heaven.."
   
     So, 24 hours passed with the Senator joining a group of
     contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and
    singing. They have a good time and, before
     he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by and St. Peter
     returns.
   
     "Well, then, you've spent a day in hell and another in
     heaven. Now choose your eternity."
   
     The Senator reflects for a minute, then he answers:
     "Well, I would never have said it before, I mean heaven has been
     delightful, but I think I would be better
     off in hell."
   
     So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes
     down, down, down to hell..
   
     Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle
     of a barren land covered with waste and garbage. He sees all his
     friends, dressed in rags, picking up the
     trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls
     from above.
   
     The devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his
     shoulders.
   
     "I don't understand," stammers the Senator. "Yesterday I
     was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster
     and caviar, drank champagne, and
     danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland
     full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened?"
  
     The devil smiles at him and says, "Yesterday we were
     campaigning, Today, you voted.."

When Religion's use hate

               I don't know why the new hate speech laws don't apply to this church.   After all the definition of this law is any communication which disparages anyone based on their race or sexual orientation.    This baptist preacher and his misguided followers are undeniable doing that with their hateful disgusting signs and gathering.   It just sickens me to listen to these people.   And what they are teaching their young children should be considered abuse.

           I believe in freedom of speech and freedom of religion.   I don't believe in targeting a group of people because of their race sexual orientation.   Over the centuries there have been many instances of cruelty and murder done by the pious in the name of religion.   A interpretation that is unbelievable to those of us who believe in a merciful loving God.   And one that you would think as people get more educated,  move out of the dark ages of superstition and ignorance would be something you wouldn't see as much.   But it is still happening all over the world.   And that it is happening in a church of God deeply saddens me.   That people can be this cruel to others deeply saddens me.   That this quack is being given so much press.... deeply saddens me.

         To the families of our soldiers.   Don't let the actions of this ignorant man stand for what the majority of people feel for the loss of your loved one.   The soldiers are in my prayers and heart each and every day.   The action of this nut job should be classified under law as a hate crime and stopped.   

The Blaze

   If your not reading this blog,  you should be.  Check out this violent ad put out by a dangerous radical group who also attended the recent communist rally in Washington hosted by some comedian.   This rally was very interesting.   Endorsed by Obama it had union thugs, communists, who no longer feel the need to hide, and went out of their way to make sure people had rides who went,  and weirdly a Methodist church group was there.


  Just curious,  were the union members asked if they wanted their dues spent to sponsor a group that rubbed shoulders with ACORN members,  whoops they have a new name now.  Or the new communist party which openly held their signs high?


   So anyway.  Check out the Blaze and check out these oh so scary stories.   Is this our bright new world?
