Well, same old stuff, driving to work the other day and even coming home; people see a cop on the side of the road with its lights on, has another car pulled over and everyone has to slow down. What the hell? Why? There is nothing to see, if you want to look at what is happening then pull over and ask the cop if you can help. Because while you’re stupid ass may not be in a hurry, there are thousands of drivers behind your slow ass which have some place to be or go.

So the next time you want to slow down and cause an accident or become part of the news or a statistic then by all means slow down on the freeway to 35 mph where it is 75mph. Dumb ass.

A little confused

Not much to say at this time; life can sure get alittle confusing at times. Kind of makes you wonder around lost in the woods, not knowing what way to turn. Or for that matter who to ask for help from; you feel like your out on an island all by yourself. Just hoping things will turn out for the better...

So they don't like the American made film, what is wrong? The reason you have stupid asses all over the world protesting this film, is because it is actually telling the truth about this Mohammad dude. You don't see the U.S or its allies getting upset and protesting when you dumb sheet heads burn our bible, or even our flag.

Grow up; it's history in the making. Have read that stupid book the Koran? It actually tells you how to kill Americans and anyone else who is not of your religion. Tell me how that can be viable religion. I have scanned through it; it is on my reading list. But any religion which condones killing should be wiped off the face of the earth.

I mean c'mon look at it does that actually make any sense to the common person. Then if you are in trouble you call on the U.S for help. I think we need to pull out, let you rag heads fight among yourselves then we can pick up pieces. Mop up operations. You people have no compassion for human life. Killing is the only thing you know. It's time to change, look what your kids are going to be like. What kind of life do they have to look forward too?

Obama can go live with you guys and help you fight you "Holy War," because you are the only people who think it’s a holy war. A war to kill innocent people; women and children, wow that takes a big person.

Hell, go water the clorean out of you sheets, maybe which is what’s causing you to act the way you do. Think about it. I am in a country, and spent 22 years in the military protecting my freedom to say what I want to say. This is just the beginning.

Do you find it strange, that the United States gives one of the riches countries in the world, Egypt, over a billion dollars a year? Yet The U.S is over a trillion dollars in debt. And those stupid asses over there are trying to over run our Embassies. Could someone please explain to me; why we are so stupid?

I spent 22 years in the military and had to keep quite on many things, I've been retired now for over 12 years. I feel now I have the right to say and voice my opinion on the world: mainly the U.S.A. We are stupid; we spend all this money abroad for other countries so they can spit on us and burn our flag in protest. Yet when we burn their flag or "Karon" in protest they get all upset. Obama you suck, you are one of them and should have never became president. We need someone like Theodore Roosevelt, "Walk Softly and Carry a Big Stick." The U.S has not done anything close to that since JFK. After that it’s been all downhill.

The U.S needs to not worry about what the hell other countries think about us. 90% of them don't like us anyhow; so the hell with the diplomatic approach. Tell them to get it together or we are going to take it.

Move our people out of harms way. Let them have it, stop giving them aid, they don't appreciate it anyways. We should just look out for the U.S and country that has stood by us in thick and thin and has not taken anything so damn personal.

Do you find it ironic that a person in their 30's or 40's gets all bent out of shape over the little things but does not look at the big picture? If we’re not getting the support to fight the Taliban then pull out and watch their country fall apart because that is exactly what will happen.

Then when they come crawling back on their hands and knees asking for help. Give it to them, under one condition; the U.S.A's, the U.S calls the shots.

Do people really know what blinkers are? Sometimes I wonder, so today I am going to give you the word of the day.

Blinker: -- A light that flashes on and off, used as a signal or to send messages. A blinking light on a motor vehicle that indicates the direction in which the vehicle is about to turn. Some key words here; signal, send messages, direction vehicle is about to turn. Just putting that out there for those of you who might have forgot sence you took your drivers test.

Now some of you out there may be wondering why I would put this on my blog. Well here is the skinny, if you are wondering why, then you are probably one who does not know what the work blinker means and what it is used for. I know, it's a scary thought, however you need to think about it.

Hey, great news, the AZ Cards won their opening game agains Seattle. It was closer than it should have been. The Cards had a couple of times to put the game out of reach for good. Then the last 52 sec where unbareable. Two pass interference calls with int he red zone, and you still manage to pull off the win. If this was last years team they probably would have lost. They are improving all over.

Great play from Skelton, and then when he went down in the fourth, Kolb came in and did an excellent job bringint them down the field and schoring to give them the lead.

Next week however is going to be a harder game. They have New England @ New England. But ehy are off to a great start. Keep it up Cards.

What is wrong with our Education

2012-09-08T19:30:00.001-07:00

What is wrong with our educational system, when no one is pleasing up our Charter Schools? How can a teacher teach there and not have a degree, or how can they go to a school for less than two years and have a BA in Education. I find that odd don't you?

Not if you look a little deep and fine that one of the Administrators has been forging documents for several years. What, how can that happen, because the state does nothing to check on it? Two individuals had their paper work fixed so it would look like they graduated from a school with the right amount of credentials, and produced fake transcripts. The first one I told you about went to a school in which the owners created, called Astoris University, it was, or is an online school. It is not accredited.

And they have teachers working there who are not even AEPA qualified. Yes this is Arizona if you have not figured it out as of yet. The school Crown Charter, I think it is about time someone checks it out.

Read the reviews on this school, it will surprise you. The owner has slammed students heads down on the table, put them in dark rooms and even had them pour coke on them self for pouring water on another student.

It's like a store with a revolving door; teachers come and go so fast it's not even funny. She either fires them because they don't conform to her style (they have higher standards) or they quit. Check out their attendance before the 100th day, and then check it out after the 100th day. They even have said I can't wait till I can get rid of this child.

This is a sad school, and there is much more than what I have written down. I can tell you some stories...WOW.

Attitude

Float like a butterfly

Sting like a bee

I have made my way

On an early Sunday morn

Everyone’s heart broken and torn

Weighing in at 1.9 pounds

A little under a foot

All in wonder, spell-bound

Caught the eyes of many

Fists clinched in rage

Attitude

Eleven inches of cocky power

Ready for the world

Filled with dynamite

If you want a piece of me

Meet Mema,

Or tangle with Papa too

They will make you

Black and blue

A day of work is like a day without sunshine... Not, wish i was retired already. But like most of us I do have to put in my time it will come. Counting down those days.

So how has everyone been today

You know what really pisses me off, people not being able to keep their hands off of your stuff. All I ask is for people to keep their hands off. Do they, that would be a no. Not one, I had my front lic plate stolen off of my truck. It was reference to Tomd Stone, it said, "I am coming and tell them Hell is coming with me." How messed up is that. Its not cool.

Have you ever wondered about todays education? How a particular school can get away with what ever they want? Build an addition to a building without permits. Remeber your child may go to school there, what would happen if the walls came crashing down? How would you feel then? Schools need to be held accountable for their acctions.

We Walk Along

2011-04-01T19:11:00.001-07:00

We Walk Along

Hand in hand

Stride for stride

Miles apart

Side by side

Never connecting

Still were one

With separate thoughts

A different goal

I close my eyes

Dream of …

Self-Esteem

“Self-Esteem -- the belief in oneself

Overweening pride in oneself”

Where has it all gone?

We are desperately seeking the knowledge

As to why

What’s our purpose

Yet I begin to loose the drive

The desire

The will the achieve what ever I wish

We all started at the top of it all

To have it all torn down, why?

We believed in ourselves as we start

Start out in life

Just to have some say

Who are you?

Where do you belong?

We begin to look at ourselves

In the mirror

The image of a forgotten soul is left

Left holding on to an intangible dream

Our pride has dwindled from

A once proud and prosperous

Adventure in life

To the thought of making

It though

Our tickets have been punched

As to where our road will lead us

But still we’ve gradually lost

Our vision

The vision of our self-esteem

Slipping into the past

Gone forever unwilling to return

Where are the Sheppard’s I herd so much about?

I know I began life with one

Slowly loosing what I had

By the paths that I chose

Now I wish to return

I know of not a soul who will help

Help me to achieve my rightful destiny

I’m in this chapter of life alone

I must

For the time to end grows so ever close

Begin to start taking the right passages

Through the rest of this chapter

Or what is left is but a shallow grave

With the shell of someone

Who has lost all of what life was about

who was he…?

please forgive me…

The lost fantasy

2011-03-30T17:58:00.000-07:00

The lost fantasy

Drifting in and out of consciousness

I see her

Beauty deep as our love

Tied with emotion

Floating on top of the world

The whips of leather caress my

Backside ever so softly

Leaving a sting of ecstasy

Our eyes embrace

As she begins her rein

Bow I must respect

The queen I lust

She is but my idol

I beg for her desire

As the chains become tight

Her demands become known

Her very essence

Her body must be worshiped

Drop to my knees

I kiss her feet

Beg for her to let me

Adore her wholly

Does she truly know

What I want

Or is she powering through the motions

Unknowingly traveling

To a distant place

Alone

The cuffs of the forbidden world

Become wrapped around my wrists

She brings me closer to her

Again the sharp sting of the

Leather tells me

My queen is truly in charge

As the binds become even tighter…

The darkness of the night

Climbs through the shades

We curl up

To forget the days

Tribulations

Drifting off to sleep

The Other One...

2011-03-27T09:56:00.001-07:00

The Other One…

Who is she?

I cannot tell

There, there she sits

My fate to wait in hell

Sin we must

We are told

In God we trust

Be bold

I look to her

The beauty bound

Where is our next desire?

Look at satan’s crown

She must spread

Bear him a child

No wait the deed

She has already been defiled

Our fate

Is upon us

We see man lying

His empty carcass

Waiting

In open field

Ready to cast a stone

He cannot be concealed

The child

Born of Satan

Must die an angles death

For the ruler must me the Son

The Son of man

Will walk

On this barren land

Gathering his flock

Death Hall

2011-03-27T09:55:00.001-07:00

Death Hall

All are a sleep

Do they dream?

Or weep

Shall I stop?

And see

A butcher shop

It must be

Where have they gone?

They are but weeds

Something they have all undergone

I too will endure

Old and withdrawn

As in the battle of Marston moor*

In ‘44*

We will all meet again

*the battle of Marston moor in 1644

Age

2011-03-27T09:54:00.000-07:00

Age

Entered into a contract

We pass with our eyes wired shut

Closed, to all the pains forming from around us

Shutting our eyes we see no future

Gloom as the time of age is upon us

Devouring each other

The weak unable to survive

The strong dieing from the lack of food

Looking to the dusk forging ahead

The age of our time is ever so near

Shut in by societies faults

The anger of the world frightens us

As children we scurry off to hide

The caves are all taken we shut our eyes

Our age has trapped us in time

Perfection...

2010-12-24T07:05:00.000-08:00

"He who is without sin, cast the first stone", wow where have we heard this before? No one is perfect, I don't care if you are a parent, grandparent, guardian, don't care what your roll is in your childs/grandchilds life, they are not perfect. We would like to all think they are, but there has only been one person to ever walk the face of this earth who was as close to if not perfect and we are about to celebrate his birth with in the next day.

I am a teacher, parent and grandparent, so I feel I am qualified to talk about and piss some of you off about what I am going to say, but I don't care, I am almost 50 years old, do you really think what you think is going to bother me, 22 years in the military gave me some tough skin.

Let me first define "Perfection": the state of being without a flaw or defect. Well that pretty much somes it up, so now when you say your child/grandchild is perfect you of course are meaning the latter part of this definition right? Meaning all of their body parts are intact and they look great, right?

Now let me get down to what really what pisses me off, and this is what can break up a family, and know one stands up to take note, and see whats going on or tries to put a stop to it. For example, kids (grand kids) playing with each other, the kids are under two years of age, and all of a sudden one of them starts hitting and biting. Who do you blame? The other child, the parents, whom then? The one child, never hit or bit anyone until they came into contact with the first child. But wait, now a grandparent gets involved makes an off the wall comment and says "I see you picked up some bad habits, from ******". Wow, how do you react to that. Well, ***** never did those things until ###### moved in. But is this the right way to handle it, no of course not. The correct way is to simple teach them not to bite and hit. They are too young to care who started it, and grandparents can be to stupid to know how to fix it. They are one of the first ones to put blame.

I had four boys, and do you think they were little angles, not hardly, I saw more than one horn coming from their heads on occasions. But in the end, they all turned out great.

I know its hard to be a grandparent, you always want to put your two cents in, but hell, if they don't want it then don't give it to them, but be there to catch them when they fall. And hopefully when you leave this earth, you will have given them enough knowledge to be able to make the right choices and realize that their child is not perfect, and to have that same attitude when you are called into the principals office. It's probably not the other persons fault, its most likely your child's fault, or else your child would not have been called into the office.

Grandparents competing against each other, how bad does that suck. "I was the first one to do ...." Were you? You may think you were, but the other set of grandparents may not care so are they going to say anything? Probably not. The bottom line is the grand kids, spoil them rotten, make them happy and stop competing with the other grandparents. I am just here to love my grand kids, and do what I need to do for them, and nothing more.

Parents of grand kids, you need to be made aware of this and grow up when you see this happening and put a stop to it. Because in the end you will tear the family apart, and someone is liable to get hurt, but if that is your objective then you go for it. Because I don't care, I will sit back as I have been watching and listening to parents, and grandparents, all over the place making fools of them self, because they think that their child/grandchild is the most perfect on the face of the earth. But remember what the definition of perfection is. and also remember, "He who is without sin, cast the first stone."

Now if I sparked your attention, or hit a nerve then this must pertain to you, or you know someone whom this does fit. And if I did piss some of you off, sorry, don't really care, you don't sign my pay check. Just remember the grand kids need everyone in their life. Don't pull or tug and put one against the other, a "house divided cannot stand."

Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

The Christmas Break

2010-12-18T07:30:00.000-08:00

Well, two week break, what to do? Get caught up on the my writing, and reading. No kids, this is a well deserved break. I will be able add much to this during this time, for example, I graduated from my masters program about a week ago. It was a long time coming.

More to come...
