Well the day has come and gone. Yesterday our oldest left for college to Texas A&M at College Station. Angie had to take pictures of course, and then tears flowed a bit and then off he went. What a happy yet sad feeling. We bring these little lives into the world, raise them as best we can and then one day they're gone. We have to trust what we taught them stuck somewhere in those moldable brains and they'll make good decisions. He'll make his own mistakes and I believe he will learn from them; he better.
So the house is a little quiter, and somehow just a bit empty without him being around. The good thing is, he's still here in Texas and only a few hour drive away. We already look forward to his retuen visits and hearing how his new adventure is progressing.
We love you son. Be careful and be safe. And like I always tell you, keep your shit together. See you soon bud.

Religion of Peace?
I ran across this today and was immediately compelled to post this on my blog. I couldn't agree more, nor could I have said it any better! Read on...
Other than submission, what legitimate forms of protest are allowed non-Muslims? In the name of tolerance and cultural sensitivity, We are told by Islamic "bridge builders" that we must allow a victory mosque on 9/11 hallowed ground or, there will be violence; we are told that if a kook minister burns a Koran, there will be violence; we're told that South Park can't portray big Mo as a teddy bear or there will be violence. When a Danish cartoonist depicts big Mo there is not only violence but actual riots; we are repeatedly told that all of these things become recruiting tools for Al Qaeda, etc... The truth is much more simplistic. The only recruiting tool radical Islam needs is the Koran.
Our very existence is a recruiting tool for radical Islam. Radical Islamist, burn churches, bibles, flags and living human beings (Christian, Muslim, Jew, Hindu, etc...), blow-up innocents in mosques, churches, busses, embassy's, ships, planes and commercial buildings. The Muslim street dances with joy at the destruction of the WTC’s and the murder of innocents within. Their “bridge builders” and moderates refuse to condemn Hamas or Hezbollah.
At what point do non-Muslims become provoked? And at such time when we non-Muslims do become provoked, are we allowed any reasonable way to express our morals, values, culture and religious beliefs without submitting to Islam, paying jizya (Muslim poll tax on non-Muslims), or motivating Muslims to perpetrate more violence upon us? When will these daily Muslim atrocities become a recruiting tool for the rest of us?

Poo Poo Head
As if things are bad enough, they may just be getting worse in a few months thanks to none other than our most inept ruler the Bamster and his regime. What is it you ask that he and his minions are scheming to “improve” our lives? Well my friends he and his environmentalist chums have decided the 'Dunes Sagebrush Lizard' is an endangered species. But Dave, how does this affect us? It happens to live in the Permian Basin, an area located in west Texas and happens to be the largest oil and gas producing region in the United States.
If he and his very bright and caring staff who would Never do anything to harm our teetering economy are successful in this new joint venture, only 100,000 people will instantly lose their jobs. This includes the ranchers in the region who provide a significant amount of beef to all the US. So, I suppose this is where the Bamster’s comment, “energy prices will necessarily sky rocket” comes into play. So now we’ll be paying $5 dollars a gallon for fuel to get to, insert your favorite burger joint’s name, to have a $10 dollar hamburger.

As if this weren’t enough to steam your already sweaty ass, for those of us in Texas, a mom in east Texas has petitioned and managed to successfully have any books containing the phrase poo poo head removed from the libraries in their son’s school district. To be fair, she began this crusade because her son was suspended for using the phrase, stupid move number one. I guess calling someone fart head might get you a week suspension, but that theory has yet to be confirmed.
Stupid move number two. The parents feel if the phrase is bad enough for his suspension then it should not be allowed in any books. Believe it or not, there’s a book titled, “The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby” and it has that phrase in it. So the school district officials have acquiesced and the book is now banned. Guess what has happened, the book is more popular and kids are do their best to sign it out more often.

Well my friends, that’s the world we live in today. I reckon it just goes to show you, no matter where we are, there are poo poo heads all around us.

Damn, I can't believe it's been so long since I posted. I could say I've been too busy but the truth of the matter is I got lay and forgot about it. Shane on me.
Lets see, since I've been gone, Obama has managed to increase our national debt to an all time high, put us in a war he claims isn't another war (Lybia), gas is still too damn high. too many people are still our of work and his regime still blames Bush for everything. How's that hope and change workin' for ya for thos e who voted the most inept Presodent in our histroy, now surpasing Carter.
Oh, and Casey Anthony has gotten away with murder. I believe she's either the first or second most hated person in the US depending on who you ask.
Other than that, life goes on and here we are. The good news is we're still alive and kicking and here to do whatever it is we do.
See you again soon...no really....I mean it dam nit...ok, we'll see what happens
