Well, as I’m sure you’ve all noticed, Ike is over land now. It’s still a cat 1 storm at the time of this writing, but it’s weakening. It looks like the worst of it is going to go east of Dallas, but who knows. I’m sure we’ll get some rain.
Houston got completely POUNDED, but I wanted to let everyone know that we’re alive and well, and that it looks like we don’t have much to worry about.

I found this recently online and had to share it. It’s from an advertising campaign in the UK, so we probably wouldn’t see it here.

The groups of corporate lapdogs that were once called the House and Senate have both passed H.R. 6304, and now the traitorous governor Bush is expected to sign it into law. This new addition to our laws will give immunity to the telecommunications companies that participated in Bush’s illegal wiretapping of American Citizens following September 11, 2001.
You know - this is disgusting. When Nixon did this type of thing, he was forced to resign, and the American people called him out for being the criminal thug that he was. How did the population get so ignorant that they now pat governor Bush on the back for doing exactly the same thing, and then creating laws to protect the people that he committed the crimes with?
Check out how your senator(s) voted … assuming anyone cares.
Impeach Bush and Cheney and put them on trial for treason!

A friend of mine sent this to me. It’s pretty entertaining.
—————————————————————-
A father passing by his son’s bedroom was astonished to see
that his bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then he saw an envelope, propped up prominently on the pillow that was addressed to ‘Dad.’
With the worst premonition he opened the envelope with
trembling hands and read the letter.
Dear Dad:
It is with great regret and sorrow that I’m writing you. I had to elope with my new girlfriend because I wanted to avoid a scene with Mom and you. I have been finding real passion with Stacy and she is so nice. But I knew you would not approve of her because of all her piercing, tattoos, tight motorcycle clothes and the fact that she is much older than I am. But it’s not only the passion…Dad, she’s pregnant.
Stacy said that we will be very happy. She owns a trailer in
the woods and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. We
share a dream of having many more children. Stacy has opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana doesn’t really hurt anyone.
We’ll be growing it for ourselves and trading it with the other people that live nearby for cocaine and ecstasy. In the meantime we will pray that science will find a cure for AIDS so Stacy can get better. She deserves it. Don’t worry Dad. I’m 15 and I know how to take care of myself. Someday I’m sure that we will be back to visit so that you can get to know your grandchildren.
Love,
Your Son Ryan
PS. Dad, none of the above is true. I’m over at Tommy’s house. I Just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than a report card . That’s in my center desk drawer.
I love you.
Call me when it’s safe to come home.

So there I am, minding my own business, driving down 15th street. I arrive at the 15th and Alma intersection, where there is a red light, so I stop like I’m supposed to. I’m sitting in the far left lane that goes through the intersection, next to the left turn lane … As the light turns green, I become aware of a police officer on my left (in the left turn lane) as he begins speaking through the loud speaker on his cruiser…
“Slow that vehicle down! You need to slow that vehicle down young man!”
I begin looking around for someone driving like a crazy person, but I see nothing but old blue haired ladies, so I turn around and look at the cop out of the driver’s window. The dialog went as follows:
Me: “Are you talking to me?”
Cop (still over the PA): “Yes, I’m talking to you.”
Me: “Go fuck yourself - I was sitting at a red light! Pull me over and give me a ticket.”
His face turned a little ugly when I stopped the car from rolling through the intersection and waited to see what his next response was going to be. His response was to turn left and go away.
Now … I’ll be the first to admit that I normally drive very aggressively and usually exceed the speed limit by a little bit, but not an obscene amount (~5 over usually). Today though, I was, for some reason, minding the speed limit, so this asshat had NO REASON to hassle me, yet, there we are.
I ask this of police officer, highway patrolman, FBI agent, military/national guard, etc … THINK BEFORE YOU ACT! Stop listening to the idiotic shit they pump into you in training. We, the citizens that you’re sworn “TO PROTECT AND SERVE”, are NOT all criminals. Stop and THINK… Jesus. Just because I drive a sports car doesn’t mean that I’m breaking the law.
That is all

I stumbled across a well written article about the civil war some time ago and thought it appropriate to share with both of my readers. Most people, including most “educated” people, have no idea about the real motivations behind the “civil” war. This is a great little article about what the war was *really* about. Maybe it’ll pick up a few more hits and educate some people.

God damn it - why is no one paying attention?
JFK was warning us about this nearly FIFTY YEARS AGO. Of course, if there really was a conspiracy, JFK would be dead now, wouldn’t he?
Oh wait …
Wake up people!
