2008 November | MY Vast Right Wing Conspiracy

Archive for November, 2008

Sheer terror and panic

My son and I went to the Red Wings game Friday night at the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit. We parked in the Joe Louis Arena garage and the interesting thing about that place is all the rows are on angles and intersect with the previous row in a couple places. So you can be walking down row 7 and the up ramp on row 6 will criss-cross with it and you can easily step from one to the next. You can get crossed up pretty quick in there.

We were leaving and made the climb up the stairs to level 7 where our van was. Well, at least that’s what we thought. We walked around a bit and no van. So back to the stairs we go. Up another level. Level 7 again. How the heck did that happen? So out we go again in search of the van. I look down a row and see what looks like my van. Here it is. Take a few steps and nope. Not here. Graham sees the level we’re supposed to be on and let’s go of my hand and says “over here daddy” and steps across to level 6. I yell to him and make a bee line straight to the opening where I am to cut him off but it’s the up ramp. He’s on the down ramp. By the time I switched direction and went back, he was gone.

At first, it’s annoyance. I yell his name a couple times. No answer. He’s playing a trick on me again. He always does that. We’ll be in Wal-mart and he’ll slip away when I reach for something and hide under a clothing rack and it takes the “take everything away from you” threat before he shows up. Not this time. Threats don’t work. Now it sets in. He’s lost. Stomach twists. Heart drops. Panic.

I have been in car accidents when a wall of hurt was coming my way. I have had databases crash with important information and had the tape backup say “tape unreadable” meaning no database was forthcoming and my job was about to be terminated. I have walked into a room where I knew my wife was going to deliver a world of hurt on me, but none of that even comes close to the feeling of panic and helplessness that comes from this. So now I am running. Screaming his name. I hear a daddy and whirl around and run to it. Nothing there. I go down a slope. Jerk number 1 is here in his car in line to go out. Every time I yell out for Graham, he yells “what” in a kid voice, basically mocking me. Even after I go up the next slope, I can still hear him doing it. On the next slope I see jerks number 2&3. Two ladies who ask if I’ve lost my car. No, I’ve lost my son. He’s 9 and he… They walk away laughing. I cannot believe the number of “jerks” I ran into. No one offered to help. Most made a joke comment and walked away.

A couple people helped when I asked. They looked around for a few moments but had to go on their way. One other helped in her own way. She had her stereo blasting while I was calling for him. She noticed me and turned it down so I could hear him. She was in the line of cars moving or she would have stopped to help, I’m pretty sure of that. But for the most part people had a good laugh at the missing child and panic stricken dad.

I finally found a lady who was pushing an empty wheel chair and asked her. She worked there and radioed security who sprang into action. It had been at least 20 minutes since he was gone. It would be another 20 or so before we found him. The garage was 90% empty by then. I decided that I would go all the way to the bottom and walk up. When I got to the bottom, I found a security person and they told me they had him. Panic over. After some paperwork and some profuse thank yous to the great JLA garage security staff, I had my teary eyed son back. I tried to act all “son you’re in a heap of trouble” and all, but couldn’t. I was just too thankful to have him back. Needless to say, instead of just holding his hand like I had been, I had my arms wrapped around him on the way to the van. We sent up a couple of thank you prayers and called mom to reassure her and were on our way.

So why am I telling you this? I don’t know. Probably because I left all my political notes back in NC and thus have nothing else. Also to tell the story of how calloused people have become. I don’t expect people to just drop everything to help. They have lives. I understand. But making jokes? Laughing and walking away? Yelling out when I do so if Graham called me, I couldn’t hear him? What the hell have we become and how did we get there? How many people saw a crying little boy and turned their backs? How many people saw a screaming dad and walked away? I really have no real idea how long this lasted. Time stops in this case, but that little boy walked around screaming for daddy, tears streaming down his face and no one, NOT ONE PERSON, stopped to help him.

I fear what we have become as a society and where we are heading. How did we get to this? I wish I knew and I wish I knew what to do to turn it around. Anyway, have a good weekend. I think I’ll take my son to a movie today. At least there I don’t have to park in a parking garage!

So what are you thankful for

I know, it’s ~~kind of~~ corny, but hey, what are you thankful for this year? I’ll start:

I’m thankful for my wife and kids. Things have been a bit rough of late, but I’m sure it will get better soon. Probably when the oldest leaves home (again). We love him dearly but we can’t miss him till he’s gone! Seriously, I have many happy memories and hope to make many more. Life would be a whole lot less exciting without them so here’s to ya wife, sons and daughter. I don’t say it enough, I love you.

I’m thankful for my family. As shocking as it is to believe, my wife and I are the most mentally stable people in our respective families. People who know me will tell you that is just sad. But hey, it’s true. Still, as I sat at the table and laughed with my mom, brothers and my sister it did bring back some fun memories. As I sat in the stands a week and a half ago cheering the Lions with my son (well, he was cheering the Panthers), it was fun and brought back great memories of my dad who passed 12 years ago. So yeah, I’m thankful for them even though they may drive me crazy at times.

I’m thankful that the good Lord for some reason that I will never be able to figure out has never abandoned me. As I look back on decisions I made I can see a swift kick here and there. Most kids knew what college they were going to when they graduated high school. Not me. Come graduation day, I was still slinging hash at McDonald’s and had no idea about college. My church has a college in Lamoni Iowa called Graceland University. Every year they held a sports challenge and I went my senior year. While walking around, I happened into the admissions building and said, well, while I’m here, I may as well enroll. 4 and a half years later, I started on a career in computers that has never let me down. Thanks Lord. I may not show it, but I do appreciate it.

I’m thankful that the good Lord gave me a functioning brain and body. Yeah, yeah, I know. You couldn’t tell the brain was working based on my writing. Seriously though. My son Brian has a real gift working with the mentally challenged. He has special needs kids at the YMCA who will only get into the pool with him. I’ve watched him and as proud of him as I am, I watch the kids he works with and I just feel terrible for them and their families. I couldn’t imagine what they are going through or going through what those kids do. I am glad I don’t have to. I would like to think I could, but in my heart, I know I’m not that strong. So thanks again God.

I’m thankful for my friends. Like Mike who comments here every so often whom I met in college. Try as he may he hasn’t been able to get rid of me since! You’re the best!

I am thankful for being an American. We have it so much better than other places and we take it for granted. Good grief, our poor people have 2 tv’s and cell phones. Other countries poor decide which kids to feed and which to let starve. Actually, our poor have it better than Europe’s middle class. When the world needs help, we’re the first there. When a neighbor needs help, our communities are there. We are the most giving nation on the Earth and that is a function of our freedom and the mindset of our great nation.

Thank you men and women of our Armed services for your service to our country! We are thankful for you even if we seem to be distracted by the latest “American Idol” sensation.

Believe it or not, I am thankful for Barack Obama. Seriously. Not because I like him. I don’t. Not because I think he’ll do ok. He won’t. But because Barack Obama is a symbol that if you work at it and if you make the effort there is NOTHING realistic that you can’t accomplish in this country. A man born in ~~Kenya~~ ~~Hawaii~~ America to a poor mom who slugged it out for her son. Goes to an Ivy League school. Becomes a Senator and then a President. We’ve had sons of Greek immigrants and sons of dirt poor factory workers run and come close. We have had fathers and sons become president. It’s unbelievable but true because it’s America.

Again, I am thankful for Barack Obama for one other reason. That in this country, if we don’t like someone that we’ve elected, we get another shot at them in 2,4 or 6 years depending on the office. If Obama bombs and is Carter 2, we can muster our side and get rid of him just like they did to us this election. The peaceful transfer of power is a beautiful thing. Just look at Russia, Pakistan or Kenya to see what it could be like. Obama shows that we can change direction in this country unlike a lot of the other countries in the world.

I am also thankful for W Bush. He had a heck of a lot dumped on him his first 2 years and I think he did pretty well with what he had happen. Has he made mistakes? Yes. Were some of them self inflicted doozies? Yep. He inherited a slumping economy and a tanking stock market and in the first 8 months was saddled with 9-11. That is a whole bunch of hurt and I think he handled it better than most would have.

I’m thankful that our blog hostess needed an American Idol writer last season. It’s been a fun 10 months and she hasn’t fired me yet! Can you believe it? She is very forgiving! I’ve been getting that writing itch back again. I have started too many books and not been motivated. Somehow, doing this for the last 8 months has jarred that part of my brain back on. Hopefully I’ll get something finished this time. So a big thank you Beth. I appreciate your trust in me!

Finally, I am thankful for our readers both on our side and in the loyal opposition like Talmadge East. Y’all keep us straight. You don’t have to come by but you do anyway. Thanks for reading.

Oh, one more. I’m thankful that there are writers like this. This is the funniest commercial that I have seen this Christmas so far:

And this scene from the best movie of the year. What a world!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

and now for something completely different

Discovery Channel has a show where they show things in slow motion. They did a show on how a dog drinks water. Too cool. I always thought they simply scooped the water up into their mouths. I was right, but wrong as well. Take a look.

Are you freaking kidding me?

Apparently Katie Couric was prepped for her interview with Palin by 2 Obama staffers. The saddest part was that she admitted it in an open forum thinking nothing of conflicts of interest or the like. The MSM drops even lower.

Mommy goes broke

First they bailed out the banks. I needed a loan, so I didn’t speak up. Then they bailed out the car makers. I wanted a new car cheap so I didn’t say anything. Then they bailed out the mortgages. I knew people losing their houses and may lose mine so I stayed silent. Then they bailed out healthcare. After that the government run healthcare killed us all so no one could speak out.

Depending on who you ask, future liabilities of our country are between 53 to 60 trillion dollars. That makes the current debt about 120k per family in the U.S. Think about that: 120k per family! Are you serious? It has to stop. But it won’t. There are too many whiners and too many hands out.

I was listening to Martin Hennecke who was on CNBC. He mentioned some very interesting things. First he talked about what S&P Silverman bond ratings chairman John Chambers said 2 months ago. All this spending and debt is putting pressure on the US bond triple A rating. They are heading to junk bond status by 2023. Folks, that’s only 15 years away. That was BEFORE the bailout. Now add the bailout from the bank crisis and it’s being accelerated. None of this includes the up coming Obama spending spree. This isn’t some wild global warming junk science. This is a well researched area. S&P is well respected and typically a very optimistic outfit. They are not doom and gloom. They aren’t trying to scare you into giving them money. This prediction will do just the opposite for them. It will make people trust investing in the US even less. That will mean less money to them. But the fact that an optimistic group says BEFORE the crisis fever hit us that we have 15 years until our national bonds hit JUNK status, that means you have to be very careful. If you decide to invest in the 30 year US treasury bonds, just remember that S&P is saying that they could be in default in 15 years. Maybe that’s not a good investment.

So what does Martin Hennecke recommend? Get out of debt. Payoff everything even the mortgages. Invest in precious metals and in countries that have a healthy currency and a stable economy like China.

So, get out of debt. Stop spending money you don’t have on things that you don’t need. Where’s the fun in that? Gimme gimme gimme! Does anyone think that anyone could get elected on that? I promise I won’t deficit spend because I won’t give you ANY free money. You need to watch what you do because you have a limited budget and so do we so if you screw your chance up you are on your own. You will all pay a standard tax rate. It will support the defense of the country, the infrastructure and debt and that’s it. Any excess will pay off debt additional debt. You keep the rest but you are ON YOUR OWN. Start saving. Maybe that candidate will get 5% of the vote. Maybe.

Hennecke and S&P aren’t the only ones sounding the alarm. The Federal Reserve of St. Louis published a research paper asking “is the us bankrupt?“. They argue that it isn’t but if we don’t CUT BACK instead of adding spending, it soon will be.

The typical trend is as follows: Government heads toward uncontrollable debt (check, thanks W and the republican congress). They then start printing money like crazy (check, thanks again W and the republican congress). This crashes the currency (happening now). Inflation accelerates to hyper inflation (coming soon) and that blows the whole thing. Eventually the government defaults and goes bankrupt. A new currency is created and the rebuilding is attempted.

Stop thinking of your dollar as actual currency and think of it as a stock. The value of the company is reflected on the value of the stock. When one company buys another, they will often use a stock swap as the purchasing object. They value the stock to be purchased and then do the exchange. A strong company has a higher value. A weaker one like Wachovia, well, not so much. The same with the U.S. dollar. Take a look at any paper dollar in your wallet or purse. You may think you have a dollar, but you don’t. You have a federal reserve note for the amount on the front. It’s not the same thing. A strong dollar buys you more stuff. A weaker one, not so much.

If you take your dollar to the government and demand to exchange it, they will give you coin. Neither the coin nor the dollar is backed by anything except the “full faith and credit” of the U.S. Therein lies the problem. The ability to collect taxes and pay the debts are what backs it up. When that debt goes so far beyond what can be collected, the backing of the “full faith and credit” vaporizes. We’re not special. Our dollar is valued on the open market like everyone else. We are subject to the same “rules of finance” that the rest of the world is. It’s not too unlike the same rules that govern us. Spend too much and have too much debt and you’re too great a risk. No one will back you. When you auction your bonds, the traders will walk away.

You can see that in Europe where countries like France, Germany, Austria, Spain and Belgium cancelled bond auctions because of lack of interest. They were not getting what they hoped and needed from them. Investors are demanding much higher rates due to the risk.

Where we are heading, Europe is already there. Where Europe is heading, we don’t want to be anywhere near. We need a leader. Someone who can stand up and force the issue and bring our spending back to sanity. I don’t see that leader right now. I fear he or she may arrive too late. For our sake and our kids sake, pray that leader shows up soon.

My tribute to the detroit lions

I picked up some Carolina Panthers - Detroit Lions tickets this weekend and took my boy to the game. We watched as the Lions ran up the first 10 points and believe it or not the Panther fans started booing. Come on, your team went in 7-2. That means they tend to win games. The Lions went in 0-9. That means they tend to not win games. As the person behind me yelled “WTF?” I calmly looked back at him while wearing my Lions shirt and told him to calm down. After all, we are the Lions. We’re 0-9 for a reason. He settled down. The lady next to me sarcastically quipped “Yeah, that’s real good team spirit you’ve got there”. I had to fill her in on what being a Lions fan is like. You see the Panthers have been to more playoff games now than the Lions have. Well I think they have. I know they have in the last 25 years guaranteed and they’ve only been in the league since the early 90’s.

Anyway, slowly but surely the Lions proved me right, against my hope. I did want them to win ya know. They gave up 31 points on route to a 31-22 loss.

So I get home and I’m cruising the YouTube for something fun and I come across this. Back in my day, these guys were cool to kids my age. Now that I have kids, all I can think is “So that’s what happens to the bad guys on the Power Rangers. They are forced into jail house bands…”

Anyway, the song they are singing is a great anthem for us Lions fans. So sit back, relax and enjoy the power ranger bad guy band known as GWAR. Heads up, it is a PG-13 video…

My new love - the Shiba Inu puppy cam ♥

OMG. I need a puppy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

$5 for Saxby Chambliss!

[This will remain on top this weekend; scroll down for newer posts.]

Got five dollars? Put it to use. ~~TOMORROW~~ TODAY (Saturday), send just FIVE DOLLARS to the Saxby Chambliss campaign!

A guy on Facebook is trying to get everyone we can reach to send just five dollars, in a sort-of money bomb (like Ron Paul supporters used to do) to give his campaign a boost, and conservatives on Facebook are vastly outnumbered. Let’s spread this throughout the blogs today, okay?

New comment system - IntenseDebate

Just an admin note - I’ve installed a new comment thingy, the IntenseDebate system. If you get an account with them (you aren’t signing up here), you can rate comments posted and report asshats here or at any other blog that uses the system. The really nice thing - threaded comments, so you can reply directly to another commenter.

PLEASE let me know what you think about it; if y’all like it, it stays. If not, I’ll just go back to the regular old way. This is just bells & whistles, really, but I like bells & whistles. :)

If you really like it and want to use it, it’s not just for Wordpress blogs - you can use it on Blogger, TypePad, and Tumblr, with more blog platforms to be supported later.

is rahm emmanuel serious?

About his creepy Hitler Youth plan?

Jeff Goldstein is blogging up a storm over at Protein Wisdom, and I obviously cannot touch the man for logic and eloquence, so go and read it.

A quick thought though; if they try to make me ‘volunteer’ to carry out some task or other deemed worthy by the Obamanistas, I certainly shall revolt, as Jeff predicts.

I’ll volunteer my time as I see fit, and Rahm Emmanuel can kiss my milky-white British arse if he thinks otherwise. I will go to jail before I sign up for a twenty-first century Hitler Youth.

Have we just put a grandstanding, uber-liberal tokenist, like Gavin Newsome, in the White House?

Let’s hope not.

John McCain, where is your honor?

This is the first in a series of blog posts that deal with the election and the aftermath. A couple are not nice to Senator McCain and this is one of them. Beth is going to hate me for this post. I have been seething for 6 weeks or so but now it has come full out. I can’t hold back any longer so here goes. Can you believe that McCain’s people are pawing through Palin’s clothes to make sure she or her family are not taking anything the campaign bought? WTF? Seriously, WTMF? This is the last straw.

Senator McCain, the treatment the Sarah Palin has received and is still receiving for the sin of accepting your invite to be the VP is a disgrace and it lies squarely at your feet.

When you announced Palin, everyone knew it was a brilliant move. So did the democrats. In their war room, their own focus groups were saying things like “Sarah Palin is one of us” or “She can help John McCain shake up Washington”. They were worried. And rightly so. They then went on the rampage savaging her left and right and you said NOTHING. What’s worse is you said NOTHING and forbade her from doing so as well. When they called her every name in the book, you said NOTHING. When they passed the story of Trig being the daughter’s baby, you said NOTHING. When you pulled that stupid stunt (and I was right, it was a stunt, read the article) and started to tank, your people savaged her. When they blamed Palin for your losses, even though she was packing them in every where she went, you said NOTHING.

Now, Senator, they are saying things that are so far beyond the pale that they are obvious lies and you still say NOTHING. You say to blame you for the loss. Guess what? Most people with a brain do! It’s not Palin that refused to fight, It was you. It’s not Palin who sucked in 2 of 3 debates, it was you. It’s not Palin who railed against a couple million in earmarks while signing onto the biggest boondoggle in US history, that was YOU. Now you sit idly by while a dedicated servant of the people, one who put her life on hold for you, gets savaged by your people and you say NOTHING.

Senator McCain, you had a chance to stop this crap the day before the election and you said NOTHING. You had the chance to put a stop to it on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday and you said NOTHING. You went on Leno and he gave you an open shot to stop it and when asked, YOU SAID NOTHING! Worse, you tried to dismiss it! In my eyes, you are now lower than dirt. I never really liked you before but I bit my tongue and grudgingly supported you. Now I am ashamed of that support and not because you lost but because of what you are allowing now. One word from you would stop this and you say nothing. So much for honor. So much for dignity.

This is how you treat your friends? This is how you treat those who went through hell for you? This is how you treat the woman who had her life turned completely upsidef’ingdown FOR YOU? She went through all that for YOU senator. This is how you pay her back? You have no honor. You are lucky Todd does.

But even in this, there is one small silver lining. Had you been victorious, we are seeing first hand how you would have treated Sarah and the other conservatives. Sarah will be back in 4 years, hopefully you won’t be.

it starts

The tsunami of public expenditure, that is.

The Bush administration signaled yesterday that it would reject a proposal by congressional Democrats to immediately advance $25 billion in government loans to ailing Detroit automakers.

Loans which would be used for what, you ask?

Congressional Democrats are pressing ahead with plans to dip into the Treasury program to provide $25 billion in bridge loans to cover day-to-day operations at the car companies, particularly General Motors, which says it could run out of money within months. Pelosi has tapped Frank, the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee and a key architect of the Treasury rescue program, to craft the auto legislation. Frank said he would summon the chief executives of GM, Ford and Daimler-Chrysler, as well as the head of the United Auto Workers, to testify at a hearing next week before his committee.

Day-to-day operations.

Which would assist in strengthening the viability of the automakers how, exactly? They are bleeding to death because they are bloated, unresponsive bureaucracies selling products under far too many brands, that no one wants to buy, manufactured with labor hired under a suicidal contract, which they have been doing for umpteen years, and we should LOAN them money to cover their day-to-day operations?? This is not a surprise to anybody but the retards at GM who think the path to commercial success is the Chevy Trailblazer.

This is simply a transfer of public money to the UAW, and anybody who claims otherwise isn’t paying attention. At least the UAW are honest enough to admit they intend to rape the public purse now their servants are back in the ascendancy:

The UAW plans to seek an additional $25 billion in public funds to cover the first payments to a union-run trust that will take over retiree pensions and health benefits from the car companies. Alan Reuther, the union’s legislative director, said this aid could help free up additional lending to the automakers. “Private lenders are reluctant step forward because they see this big liability out there,” he said.

Another $25 Billion? If the American people think this is a good idea, I’ll be surprised.

I’ll bet Obambi is really looking forward to becoming the face of this orgy.

God help us.

well, well, well

Surprise! Remember all those toxic loans we had to buy up? You know, using $700 billion of taxpayer’s money, on an emergency basis? The very raison d’etre for the TARP monstrosity?

Well it turns out we don’t now need to buy those toxic assets, and we are going to get all our money back!!

WASHINGTON — Secretary Henry Paulson said the Treasury has put a plan to purchase illiquid mortgage-related assets on hold.

Yay, we get our money back!

Just kidding!

He’s dreamed up some entirely new and better ways to drown his Wall Street buddies in our cash! Yay!!

“We are carefully evaluating programs which would further leverage the impact of a TARP investment by attracting private capital, potentially through matching investments,” Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said in a broad speech on the Troubled Asset Relief Program, known as TARP, the global credit crunch and the government’s recent steps to address the financial meltdown. “In developing a potential matching program; broadening access in this way would bring both benefits and challenges.”

At least he’s consistent. Errrrr, or not:

The fact that Treasury may now require firms to raise money marks a new phase for the government, which had resisted such a move previously. Before launching its $250 billion capital-purchase program last month, Treasury toyed with requiring banks to raise matching funds alongside any government investment, but it thought that might discourage some firms from participating. It also worried that firms would not be able to raise private money in the current market environment.

A new phase for the government, which some might call a 180 degree reversal, is not exactly reassuring to those of us who already think this plan is idiotic and being run on the twin fuels of guesswork and blind panic.

Tell me why I’m wrong.

Hey you! How about a tummy rub and a doggie bone?

Hi, I’m Delilah. You know me as Edwardsina from the Canine Party play. I’ve noticed that a lot of you haven’t been happy lately. You’re down and I understand. But I’m here to tell you to SMILE! Look, we know Obama won. It sucks, yes, but we have to deal with it. Moping around and pointing fingers won’t get us anywhere (yet). We’ll have plenty of time to analyze why we lost and what has happened, but until then we need to take some deep breaths.

See that trash right there? I could be sad that my master’s yard is polluted. But the fact is that trash became my toy! I grab the cup or that bag behind me or what’s left of the bag to my right and run like crazy yelling “haha, I’ve got the cup! You don’t have the cup!”.

Then I chase her down and try to take it. I could be sad that I don’t have that cup. I could mope and yell and point fingers. Instead, I get up off my rump and try to do something about it. I chase her down and take the cup back!

I’m Catherine, AKA Obarkillary and I am here to tell you that nothing good comes from crying in your beer, so let’s start getting happier. And I mean now dammit!

I’m London, the MinPin. I know that sometimes things don’t come out like you want. Look at me. I look like a rabbit that was shaved and stretched on a taffy puller! I could have crawled up somewhere and blocked out the world.

Instead, I find my friends and things don’t seem quite so bad. We laugh and joke and have fun! Life goes on and we just make the best of it!

Sometimes you just have to take things in stride! It’s no use worrying about what you can’t control.

Yeah, I remember when my master took me to the vet. Now you think I’m sexy, right girls?

Oh, yeah. Heck yeah! We sure do dear!

See that’s what I thought too. But one day, my master took me to the vet! She walked in and he told her that I was having tummy problems and throwing up a lot. Well, she looked at me and my stomach and then at him. Then at me. Then at him. She had this look like “and you’re surprised why?” on her face. Then out of the blue, she goes all Doctor House, DMV on him. “Well, she’s not exactly ready for bikini season, now is she!”

Oh, no she didn’t. What did master do? Did he come back with a witty one liner like “well, she’s more of a one piece dog anyway”?

Well, not really. See she was a hot blonde and he was more interested in checking out her butt and boobs than figuring out why I was sick. She told him to cut down on the junk food and to keep me from eating scraps. He wasn’t paying any attention. His head just bobbed up and down while Miss Pretty yammered on. His light was on, but no one was home.

Wow, so what does this have to do with not getting upset?

Well, since he didn’t do anything that she said, I decided rather than get mad, I simply went and puked on their bed! As soon as that happened, he remembered what she said and that took care of it!

I see. You took action to stop it from happening again! Good story!

Really, it could be worse. You could be Hillary. I mean think about it. She only stayed with that lout of a husband for one reason. The presidency. Now that’s a distant dream called FAIL! That means, she stuck with him for nothing. Nada! Too funny. Now come on. That would suck royally wouldn’t it?

Ok, so our first step is to get happy. To help you with that, our friends have sent in some pictures. Now this idea was shamelessly stolen from Brian at MGoBlog.com. It’s a Michigan Wolverine site and he put this theme up after App State beat UM last year. So here we go:

Awwww! How cute!

OMG! That is sooooooo sweet!

Hey, how did that picture get in here. Dang it, you let master do the pictures didn’t you? Well, yeah, he has the password. Ugh. Ok, moving on…

Fly little kitten, fly!

Oh, that’s just so sweet!

Puppies and kitties! Wow!

Oh, look at that puppy!

Awwwwww!

I wanna take em home!

How darling!

So sweet!

Now those are cute puppies!

See, now don’t you feel so much better! It could always be worse and with puppies and kitties, nothing can be better. So turn that frown, upside-down and SMILE!

Rolls out of bed…

Sorry for the no posts the last few days but 2 days after the election I was jumped by a flu and haven’t been able to shake it. I’m coming around and I’ll have a couple thoughts on the post election analysis. Until then…
