Yesterday I wrote an incendiary blog. So far I’m just a little guy and am flying under the radar. Big government, and big corporations could squish me like a bug if they chose, but I’m not even worth that much attention. Sometimes it is good to be irrelevant. I can speak my mind and be […]

It’s Our Country and We Want it Back!

You’ve got to give him credit. President Obama isn’t just sitting behind his desk in the oval office luxuriating in his win. He’s out spreading his message. I heard his interview on Face the Nation yesterday (March 29, 2009). Bob Schieffer quoted Thomas Jefferson who said, “the presidency is a splendid misery.” Furthermore Schieffer said, […]

Should Michael Vick Profit From His Crime?
March 29th, 2009 · No Comments
If you’re an NFL fan then you’ve probably have heard about former Atlanta Falcon’s quarterback Michael Vick and that he is in prison for running an illegal dog fighting operation. (If you don’t know that story, you may want to do a quick Google search and to get some story background).
I was listening to a […]

The New Capitalism - Collaboration

Rule #2 of How to be a Total Failure advises us to not share what we know with others. As with all the rules for failure, this rule appears to be a good tactic to use to gain short-term success, but in the long-run, usually ends up costing us something: a friendship, a job or […]

Borrowing to Buy Your Way Out of Debt

Republictarian–is a word I read today describing someone’s political belief structure. I think that has a good sound to it, don’t you? The republican part works for me because I believe in the republican ideals, although the party hasn’t done a very good jobĀ honoring those ideals. The party of less government, less taxes, and more […]

Insult to Injury

On this blog site we’ve been addressing the abuses of AIG. Democrat Paul Hodes of New Hampshire, got it right and created a war cry for the fight: “You know, as far as the American people are concerned, I think AIG now stands for arrogance, incompetence and greed.”
A few years ago I saw a news […]

Who Wants to be President?
March 16th, 2009 · No Comments
I’ve always believed that anyone who desires to serve as the President of the United States has got to have a screw loose, or several loose screws for that matter. We always have such high expectations when we install a new leader. Poor Mr. Obama has been saddled with the highest. For him to succeed […]

What’s Wrong with the Greenie Beanies?
March 14th, 2009 · No Comments
Greenie Beanie is my pet term for environmental activists. What they have done and are doing to stir our consciousness has been a great service to the world. I appreciate that. Thank you.
The problem is they go too far, they rarely give credit where credit is due, and they tend to overstate the facts. Let […]

Shame on GM, the Government, and Big Oil

What would you think of a company who created a legal, and very needed product, thisĀ product had customers queued up to buy, and were willing to pay top dollar for it, but instead of selling, the company removed it from the market and destroyed it in such a way that no one could ever […]

Get Out of the Cement Before it Hardens

I am a proud member of Toastmaster’s International. For those unfamiliar with the group I can say unequivocally that we don’t make toast and we aren’t raising our glasses and toasting throughout our meetings. We save that for special occasions, like my club’s Christmas party, where we incorporated a toasting challenge as part of the […]
