The moment of truth

This week will be the moment of truth. My wife, Jeanette, is going up to camp with the young women for about five days (Tues-Sat). Jeanette told me she does not want to come home to a disaster, and has threatened not to go if she feels it will be a mess when she gets back. I might have to do a last minute clean up on Friday and Saturday.

The house is generally in good order on any given day. The problem may be I'm at work in the day (MON-Thurs) and may come home to a mess. Our babysitter does a good job though and it should be a good break for mom to get away.

Freedom Wins! Liberal gun-grabbers lose!

Thugs and criminals aren't the only ones who can have handguns now in D.C and other parts of the country. Thugs and criminals will get their guns by any means necessary, whether there is a city ban or not. Bans keep guns out of the reach of citizens who obey the law.


The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that Americans have a right to own guns for self-defense and hunting, the justices' first major pronouncement on gun rights in U.S. history.The court's 5-4 ruling struck down the District of Columbia's 32-year-old ban on handguns as incompatible with gun rights under the Second Amendment.


Who are the four old bastards that voted against a persons right to bear arms? John Paul Stevens, Breyer, Ginsburg, Souter. Could they be out of touch with the average law abiding American?






Felon Leroy in K.C. has a gun, legally or not.

1980's are the Greatest!

I loved the 80's! I don't know entirely why, but it is a decade I love.

Some things that come to mind are the music of the decade (including rocker hair-doos and mullets), fashion, my sports teams had great success, riding around in beat up Dodge cars and other trade ins, Reagan (love him or hate him), riding the bus to the 6th grade, movies, Cola wars, less political correctness, Superfriends Cartoon, etc.

The Breakfast Club, Hoosiers, Ferris Bueller, First Blood, Die Hard. Can't mention all the movies.

There are so many great artists I cannot mention a fraction of them. VH1 occasionally has the top 100 of the decade, for the most part it is a good list. Heart, B52s, Pat Benetar, Queen, Air Supply, Journey, Bon Jovi, Twisted Sister, The Police, Foreigner, Survivor (one song, Eye of the Tiger), Men At Work, Steve Miller Band, Prince, Hall and Oates, Rick Springfield, John Cougar Mellencamp, The Go-Go's, Van Halen, INXS, U2, Depeche Mode, Phil Collins, Scandal, Def Leppard, Guns n' Roses.

My Kids and Team Sports

It's fun to watch your kids grow right before your eyes. Brooke, 9, has been playing soccer for over two years now and she has developed into a great player. Zachary, 5, is just beginning baseball and learning the basics and fundamentals. Jeanette and I love to cheer them on and support them.

Looking at them play brings back memories of my own upbringing. There are many similarities. Parents cheering and pulling for their children and team to do well and win. Dad pacing the sideline nervously hoping for a great play.

I believe it is important for children to have a good balance in their lives. This may include, education, spirituality, and group or team involvement in something. I believe there are many physical and mental benefits associated with team sports. The physical benefits are pretty obvious, but important. Today’s generation of children are fighting the worst obesity epidemic in history.

Kids learn more than just scoring, batting, shooting, and winning. They are part of a team. It is not I, or my way, they learn to be a team and help and cheer for teammates, and winning requires teamwork. Hopefully, they begin to think of everyone as a whole, and not just themselves, become more selfless. Having positive experiences and role models is priceless, and creates everlasting memories. I hope we all encourage are kids to be involved in some type of team sport or other form of extra caricular activity.

BYU Basketball-An Embarrasement

The BYU Men's Basketball Program is an embarrasement to the Mountain West Conference. Two years in a row with a first round loss in the NCAA Tournament. This quickly voids and discussion of them being the best in the conference. Meanwhile, UNLV has won 3 NCAA Tournament games in the past two seasons, reached 4 final fours, and won a national championship.

The Cougars were tied with the University of Missouri for the distinction of having the most NCAA Tournament appearances without having ever played in the Final Four. Now, thanks to 2008, they are alone in that category.

Great job BYU. Win a couple of NCAA Tournament games before you run your mouth.

Go Rebels!

Obama's church: Destroy the white enemy

According to the Washington Times article below, Obama's church was founded on a radical creed.

http://washingtontimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080401/NATION/766118950/1001

The Bible clearly states that Christ was in Israel and that he was a Jew. However, Reverend Wright has a different opinion of Christ. He stated Jesus was a poor black man. He also has a hatred towards white people and is anti-American.

That African moo moo the Reverend is wearing is very lovely.

Below are some links to the Reverend's rants and hate speech.
