All Drugged Up

Updates will be slow in coming here for a while. I've got a pinched nerve in my neck that is really causing me alot of pain and suffering right now. C-5 and C-6 are the main culprits. My left arm feels like it is constantly waking up from a good sleep, it won't stop. The index finger and thumb on my left hand are numb and extremely sensitive to anything warm or cold. Typing is a slow one handed process. Thank God for spell checker. The good news is that I will not be required to go under the knife. My MRI came back with a very good report on that end. It's just going to take a good many trips to the bone cracker to get me back in shape. NO SURGERY NEEDED = BIG PRAISE REPORT FOR THE POSITIVE RESULTS OF PRAYER!!! God is good. Medication is too!!!! He gave the scientists the brains to develop medicine. The only bad thing is, is that they only take the edge off, they don't exactly give me that "happy" feeling. They take the edge off and leave me half brain dead. Great, now the other half won't work either!!!

Anyway, my brain can barely put two words together right now, and by the time my one good hand catches up I've already forgotten the rest of what I thought might be a decent observation of current events. So I guess the only thing left to read will be the musings of a one-armed, drugged-up, pain-in-the-neck!

I believe that our country is slowing starting the swirl in its inevitable flush in the toilet to Socialism.

I know that I'm biased and my vote doesn't count, but ya gotta admit...He's a cutie!!!





















One of the few cool things about living in Florida...Just step out your front door and watch the shuttle take off.

Bumper Stickers

How about some politically insensitive bumper stickers:

1. Vote Stupid, Vote DUMB-O-CRAT

2. Democrat= Kill the unborn, Save the Murderer
Republican= Save the unborn, Kill the Murderer

3. I'm a white, male, evangelical, pro-life, gun toting, right-wing veteran terrorist suspect

4. Have you hugged your teleprompter today?

5. Stand up Chuck!!

6. Uh..uuhhh, uh. The teleprompter must be skipping again.

In the beginning...

I'm new to this. My wife, Linda, has encouraged me to put "pen to paper", so to speak, about my musings on current events, history and maybe even take a look at our future.

I, like many people today, am concerned over the events that are taking place in this country today. The country that I was priviliged to grow up in has slipped away and I fear that it will be a thing of antiquity by the time I am able to teach my son what it is to be an American. I fear that for him America will no longer be "that shining city on a hill" that President Reagan spoke of with such optimism and pride. I fear that to be an American will be a dirty word for him. We will be just another nation among nations of this planet. How depressing. I hope that this will not be so. I, you can rest assured, will teach him that he was fortunate enough to be born in the greatest nation this world has ever known. We were the upstarts that defeated the greatest empire of their time to become a free people with rights that no government could take away...or so they thought. They didn't foresee us voting away our God given rights at the ballot box, or willfully giving our freedoms away for "security" or "political correctness" or in order to be "enviornmentally friendly". We have fought more wars to defend the rights of others than anyone else in the history of this planet. And unlike the true conquerors and colonial powers of the past, we did not keep the lands we liberated or demand tribute or loyalty in the future from these peoples. They were again allowed self rule. Your welcome France! I digress. I guess what I'm going to attemp here is to talk about how good our country really is. I'm going to blow my top from time to time, that's a given with the way things are being handled right now, but it will not all be negative, bash bash bash.

I'll be putting up links to site and news that I find interesting. Pics of the baby. Yes, you people will be stuck with watching the most beautiful man-child in the world grow up. JD was an unexpected gift from God. My wife and I were told that we probobly would not have kids, so He is very, very, very loved.....not quite spoiled, just loved. So this is it. Enjoy.
