Back to basics...........................

There comes a time when you just have to press the "reset button" of life. Do you know what I mean ?? It all comes down to basics. Say "please", "thank you", "yes"-not "yeah", say "no"- not "nah", open the door for someone, use your turn signals. I think we learned most of these early in life. You need to treat people as if they have had a worst day than you are.

Politicians

When the hell are "we", the common folk, going to start putting these politicians in "check". For too long they have ran amuck and put our country in "muck". I belive the problem started when they started living in Washington D.C. They were "corralled" in one place so that the lobbyist can go at them like fish in a barrel. It evens happens at the local level. A discount on a car here, a better price for a plot of land there, yadda-yadda. When someone runs for office at any level instead of saying "Thank You blah blah", they should just say "CHA-CHING BITCHES, I'M GOING TO CUT BUDGETS IN SCHOOLS, FIRST RESPONDERS, GET RID OF PROGRAMS FOR CHILDREN OF EVERY KIND, AND YOU KNOW WHAT? SCREW THE ENVIRONMENT- I GOT A FREE CONDO, AND STILL DRAW A SIX DIGIT SALARY. WOOHOO, AND YOU PUT ME HERE". Does that sound about right? That's how it feels anyway.

The cold shoulder of a GPS girlfriend.

My father has a GPS for his car. He was on his way to an appointment and used it to get to his location. The friendly voice told him where to turn and the direction to go- well, "she" instructed him to go 0.9 mi. and make a U-turn, right past a his turn. He saw his destination, saw the turn lane but followed "her" directions. He asked," why would it tell me to go down there when there's a turn lane right here?" After he made his turn "she" stopped talking to him. Don't worry, I think they'll work it out.

What the hell were they thinking ???????

What the hell were they thinking giving these companies money that we, the tax payers are funding ???? Seems the credit card companies are raising the fee to use their card or some such thing. Didn't they get a "truck load" of money from us and now we have to pay more ?? Look at it this way--- YOU JUST COVERED THEIR "BONUSES" WITHOUT CUTTING INTO THEIR PROFITS AND YOU STILL HAVE TO PAY THEM AND THE RATE INCREASE.

The Ones That Make The Rules.........................

I heard on the radio show a good point... These people that make the decisions to cut budgets, i.e. close schools, let go of "First Responders", Teachers, etc, etc........ How much do they make a year? I think there is a problem with someone voting on their own pay? A "conflict of interest" they call it. School Board members, City Counsel Members, State Representatives and Senators, all the way up to the Federal level. Maybe they should be held accountable to the same standards they use to give someone or some program the axe. More later

"Chimps Gone Wild" & More.......................

OK, a 200 lb Chimp, (I say that because they don't like to be called "monkeys", it's a species thing I guess. I believe a chimp is an ape. I'm just covering my bases on this- Don't want one of those hairy bastards knocking on my door upset..) Beat the the ever loving hell out of some poor lady. I heard an interview with the "owner" of said Chimp, when asked why she thought the chimp did what he did she said because the chimp didn't recognize the lady because she got her hair done..... What the hell is that??????? Not thinking that maybe the Zanaz ( I can't spell something I don't use) she gave him had something to do with it....... She is in her own little world- and I for one would put this nanny of "BONGO" in jail. And why in the hell would someone own an animal of this type???? I think maybe she should have let him hit the "herb" over some damn pharmaceutical made by man. Live by the sword-die by the sword I guess they say.

Hello..... "pan-handlers". Can't stand these people. I've seen them, male, female. Their stupid little signs-"will work for food", "homeless", and the catchy, "homeless and hungry" (a double whammy on the guilt). And sometimes you get the "Disabled Vet". I have had a few in my time, as I'm sure you all have at intersections. One I remember well. A guy in a camo jacket with a beret on came up to me at a gas pump and said he was a "disabled vet" and ask for money. I calmly told him I was too, (which I am) and I have a job, then gave him directions to the nearest VA Center. Another I saw was in front of 7-11 asking for money, a man asked him, "You hungry?", the guy said "yeah", the gentleman said, "C'mon, I'll get some food". The guy came out pissed because the man was going to get him food not money. When you see the people at the intersection think twice. Don't even make eye contact with them. Or if your feeling "saucy", have them dance or tell you a joke, hell sing a little tune for the money so badly want. That's degrading you say?? And standing at an intersection begging for money isn't??? At least they would've provided some service for YOUR hard earned money......
