Last few days.....


I had a long drive this week end I have about 12 hours to think about
things, things that have been on the back burner in my mind. I went to
visit a friend who is going away for at least a year and a half. He's off
to war. This got me thinking about WW2 and how far we've gotten from those
days and how worse we are now. I looked back in to some war stories and
saw the sacrifice that all of America did then. The can, paper, rubber
drives. The buying of War bonds to support the troops over seas, victory
gardens and some back to basic giving from the heart. I look around today
and all I see is a country spoiling by its self and the media. We worry
more about Paris Hilton and her jail term than the troops. We consume
meaningless stuff... ohh look PS3 and the Apple iphone instead of saving
for our kids and country. We openly mock those troops by saying only those
dumb enough signed up for this. Where is the sacrifice from home? Where are
the rallys? No more yellow ribbons on cars, they have lost all meaning for
me. I'm going to list a few things that are floating through my head as of
late.

- I do not support the war I support the troops. I am not a hater of
America I have just stopped supporting the government.
- I'm fine with current tech do not need the latest thing in my hands.
- I recycle
- I make time for my kids. I turn off the TV and read to them.
- I am all for major immigration controls and for walls on both borders.
- Speak English at work and at places of business. I don't care what you
speak at home.
- Get our boys and girls back home from over seas.
- I hate customer service in India
- I hate The mid East thinking the we have to change for their world.
- I hate the Chinese trade of knock off items like food and medicine with
no one accountable for anything.
- I hate North Korea rattling sabers when they want food or money.
- I hate the human flood of people form Mexico
- I love pot pies
- I enjoy fishing
- I Like real Coke
- I am finding it harder to find hero's in the real world.
- I find my self more and more angry in my waking life. I think that this
is going to consume me from the inside out.
- I have a fear of cancer and think I will have either some form of gut or
brain cancer.
- I hate Hollywood with remakes and celebutants
- I want to go camping
- I don't listen to music any more
- I'm tired and any amount of sleep does not help
- I think that people do not accept responsibility any more. Its always
some one elses fault.


Thank you for taking a minute in your life to take a peak in to mine. I
know it sounds like alot of bitching but some time you just need to clear
your head.
