    Fun! Fun! Fun!

    I used to live up north of there, between Pickens and Clemson. I lived near 6 mile Mountain, otherwise known as the rattlesnake capitol of South Carolina. I hunted with a club in the "Low Country" one season. First day it was 98 degrees. We killed 18 rattlers, no deer and I got chiggers...

    Michelle Obama sacrifices on Vail vacation

    We have been talking about the other stuff. It is just fun to poke fun at the Obama's, the congress and most other government geeks.

    How do you send air through it? Shutting down the fuses would shut down the freezer. It is full. I gotta look into one of those automatic generator dohickeys.

    Fun! Fun! Fun!

    Fun update!! The power company is now projecting that our power will not be back on until Thursday at 8PM. We had NOT planned for a week off. This is starting to suck. :( With any luck they got it wrong and they can get it going sooner.

    The military-civilian "disconnect"

    Don't forget that stupid self esteem stuff. Far too many parents praise kids for things like, waking up in the morning or sneezing. Kids need to be pushed, challenged. A good normal life SHOULD include many bangs, cuts and even a broken bone or two. Kids need to FAIL. They need to WIN...

    Yeah, I used to live down there. Used to sit outside and fight off rattle snakes while we enjoyed the nice weather!! :p Could not use my pond in the summer either, cotton mouths.

    The military-civilian "disconnect"

    Military standards are TOO LOW. Women should HAVE to meet the EXACT same physical standards as men do, AFTER they are raised. There are many who are too mentally weak as well. Too soft a life for far too long. There is also a BIG marksmanship problem. It was bad years ago and is getting...

    Fun! Fun! Fun!

    Democrats have meltdown in Wisconsin

    I don't know what other things the State should be funding. It would be an interesting argument if I were not headed for bed. I have to get up early to finish the refrigerator installation so we can go in service Tues. Maybe if I get that done I will have time to mull this one around.

    Be Careful Today

    Too hot for my liking. Anything over 70 for summer temps is more than I can take. Winter is cool!! Which means it is not too hot! :D

    Be Careful Today

    The Weather Channel is reporting a 50 car pile up on I94 on the western side of Michigan. Still freezing rain around here. A second low pressure system right on the tail of the first. MDOT is saying to stay off the roads

    Democrats have meltdown in Wisconsin

    I have NO problem with taking education out of the hands of the State and Federal Governments. I believe that ALL education should be local. NO teacher should ever be allowed to strike. They should have to produce. No more silliness like graduating people who cannot read or write.

    Democrats have meltdown in Wisconsin

    I don't know if it is a tangent or not. A lot would depend on the wording of the contract. I don't know enough about WI law to make that guess. With as many as called off it can, and should, be considered a strike. Schools had to be shut down for no good reason. There were other more productive...

    Democrats have meltdown in Wisconsin

    I wonder how they got there? In their own cars? In buses? I sure hope that they did not use public funding to cover the costs of their transportation. I think that governor should be looking into that.
