Should Kids Drink Fentiman's Victorian Lemonade? {Slashfood}
Oct 24th 2009 5:48PM This is off subject a bit but it needs to be out there. There is a comment that kids aren't turning out so good now days. I had my doubts until a few years back. I have seen some stand up young adults out there in the last few years. I have met some 20 year old Iraq Vets that have it together. Without a doubt. Focused and in tune with the world. There are some students I have seen on television that are smarter by a factor of 10 when compared to a Sheila Jackson Lee or a Nancy Pelosi. Today in the parking lot of our local shopping center I heard a kid rev his engine and made his tires squeal a bit when he took off. I saw him and did not shout at him as I have been known to. He was too far away by then. A few minutes later he comes walking by my truck. I calmly told him that I was not impressed by his show off power and that my wife was close to his truck when he pulled the stunt. He was a big muscled up boy and I expected a confrontation. Instead, he apologized, said that it was a bad idea and shook my hand while thanking me. I was impressed by his stand up ways and if I see him around I will show him the respect of a gentleman. Thanks for listening. By the way this happened in Weatherford, Texas in the afternoon of October 23, 2009.
Walmart to offer low-cost wireless service across the U.S. {Daily Finance}
Oct 15th 2009 3:09PM For years I have known that the cell phones giants were getting to us. Wireless doesn't cost them what you might expect. Way to go WalMart. I am changing today.
Dow 10,000? Slam dunk. Dow 11,000? Not so much. {Daily Finance}
Sep 21st 2009 8:50AM I am waiting on the other foot to fall. The commercial real estate paper is about to take a major hit. Nothing has been done to help by the current administration that people could call "good". I would just as soon they keep the government out of the picture.
Tesla Motors gets a $465 million taxpayer loan. Why? {Daily Finance}
Sep 17th 2009 12:25PM This is a plug-in electric car? That means it runs on coal. Now we might know what the closed door meeting with Big Coal and Obama was about.
Backlash over light bulb ban continues to build in Europe {Daily Finance}
Sep 14th 2009 8:21AM Just by changing from coal powered generating plants to Natural Gas generating plants will do more for the enviroment. There is NO clean coal.
Wartime Contractors, Profit and Pork {Politics Daily}
Aug 20th 2009 3:12PM Politicians should stay away from the wars. They are all in it for the money and they say they want to take care of the non-combatants only because that takes more time and they make more money. This is pure BS. The hell with political correctness. Let the Armed Services loose. They will put an end to this war. They do not want to spend the next 10-20 years away in a feudal country. Turn them loose with what we have right now. Bless the innocent and stand back. They will be home in a couple of months. Send someone in to ship all the gear back. There won't be any resistance.
Death Row Inmates Get Reprieve with Racial Justice Act {Politics Daily}
Aug 20th 2009 2:57PM Yes it is. I don't want it around me and mine, but there are plenty out there that are going to take up arms. The time has come. It will have a new meaning when some people are saying "I hope this is going to change."
Death Row Inmates Get Reprieve with Racial Justice Act {Politics Daily}
Aug 20th 2009 2:49PM We will continue to incarcerate and dole out death penalties to those who deserve it. There will not be a free life sentence because of your race. The citizens will put their collective feet down on this "idea". "Hope" all you want, keep dealing drugs and commiting crimes against your own. You will pay the cosequences. Or go to North Carolina and continue your ways. They are wanting your input. Best wait until after the citizens have their say first. I don't think they are all for the "change".
Arizona GOP Runs Doctored Cigarette Photo of President Obama {Politics Daily}
Aug 15th 2009 8:37AM I will call myself a racist. I hate people of low character. And to Sharon, I have been off my butt for 40 freaking years trying to get ahead. One thing that hasn't changed is the names on the ballots. Get rid of the pro politician. Give them one chance, give the asshole a report card and if he/she doesn't measure up, fire them. As for the Chicago goon, if that dumb bastard bats a 1000 from here on out, he won't make up for the mistakes he has made so far.

Hurry, there is little time to waste.
