Age Of reason

I was just reading a article on AOL talking about how because of Ronald Regan and his small government idea. That is what has caused all the issues in this country.

My comment to that is that no liberal seems to know what he is talking about anymore. They are so far left that they will not allow themselves to think in any other direction. They attacked Bush 7 of the 8 years he was in office. They did suck a good job at it that they made the war in Iraq even harder. They were the ones that killed soldiers. They are the ones that killed our friends and children. Why because they showed the world what we have become. WEAK!!! We bicker and fight over every little thing. We debate over everything. Every ones feelings have to be taken into account. Even if they would rather kill you than look at you.

So now that they have Made both Bush Sr. and Jr. look like devils. They are now attacking Regan. One of the most popular and well loved presidents of all time. Why are they going after him? Because they are trying and very successfully tearing down the system. They want all the power to be put in the hands of the few to control the many. They want us to be slaves to ourselves. They want the rich to pay the poor to not do anything. They tout themselves as a modern day Robbin hood and the poor and troubled cheer them on, but yet they do not know why. The poor only hear that they either don't have to work or they have to work less. they hear things like free health care and cheaper fuel costs. They do not know what these are or what they mean.

As a country we are slowly falling into the propaganda that the far left wing liberals are pushing. They have taken over the media and they come into our homes. they are filling our minds with crap and evil. We need to fight it. We need to work to better form our own opinions and throw half of what the media says to the side.

We need to become the Land of the Free and home of the brave once more. This is not a one person fight. We all need to look at what is happening and see if we truly agree with it or not. This is not a popularity contest. This is life. We need to leave the Jr high and high school mentalities behind us. We need to hear what people are pushing for and not just cheer them for speaking well. We need to not attack ourselves to just one persons ideals. But hear everyone and become our own person. We all do these things and this country will have a chance. If not we will become the next Rome.

Age of Fear

I was a little heated up last night over an incident that happened Sunday night. We have some neighbor kids that like to doorbell ditch us frequently. Normally it is just a little game and I pay little to no attention to it. But Sunday night after a long drive. It was pretty late. Between 10 and 10:30pm.

I had gone to bed since I wake up every morning at 6am or earlier. Cassie was staying up a little longer than me. But was about to go to bed herself. When the doorbell starts ringing like crazy. When Cassie opened the door she had rocks thrown at her. Not pebbles. But rocks. So not only are we rudely awakened at a late hour. Cassie was attacked by a little girl. Somewhere between the age of 4 to 8.

So last night I was still upset about the incident. Why is this child up and out side causing trouble 10 at night? I was not allowed outside after 10. Heck at that age I was in bed. Maybe parents don't believe in bedtimes anymore? Its not the hip thing to tech your child good bed habits anymore?

So in my rage I said to Cassie. If that child rang our doorbell like crazy again in the middle of the night and then threw rocks at either of us again. I was going to go out there and spank her. Cassies prompt response was. "I would not do that, They could sue us."

Now Cassies response although right made me think. This is the age of fear. We are all afraid that someone would sue us. You have to keep your house clean and in good condition because if someone comes into your house to rob you and happens to trip and fall, hurting them self. They can sue you for the injury. Not only that. They have won cases in the past! So it does not matter that they were in the wrong. That they were committing a crime. It only matters that they got hurt on your property.

So now back to my situation. The mom of the child was outside. She did apologize to Cassie for the child ringing the doorbell. It was a case of "Was that my child?!?!? Oh I am sorry" so part denial and a simple possibly PC apology. Did she mean it? I don't know. But did she promptly take that child into her room and at least ground her for the night? Did the child even know what she did was wrong?

So where does the fear stop? Should I be afraid every day of protecting myself, my wife, or any one in my family? If you go by the news or public opinion. Yes. Don't do anything of the sort. Do not stand up for human rights unless your part of the human right organization. Even then they will step on your toes and hold you back from doing the right thing, just so that they can keep their funding.

So what can we do. We protect ourselves, we get sued. We do nothing, We get taken advantage of. This is an age of fear. An age of rewarding those that do wrong. I am sick of it. You can't go to a politician because they Will give you the politically correct answer. You can't go to a lawyer because of previous cases they will just tell you that you will lose. We are stuck in the mud. We have to let people take advantage of us because it is the only way to keep yourself from going into horrible debt.

Paying for and Planning a wedding? I have no good advice.

    Ok so recently I got enguaged to a wonderful woman. We are now getting married in june. 

   Now comes the hard part. I always heard of all the fun things about weddings. Especially the wedding night! Wink Wink. But I have not ever seen in any of the wedding movies the part where you feel like your pockets are empty and your sanity dropping like a rock. I know what is going threw my head. So I feel Sorry for my fiancee Cassie, Because she has the hard end of the deal. Traditionally the Man just has to show up to where the soon to be bride tells him to. She Gets all the inital stress I guess you would say.

   

But now where my pockets begin to feel empty. I did not realize that everyone else in this country that gets married was so rich. I mean honestly after a ring and a honneymoon. I figure I will have to mortgage my house that I have not bought yet.  People throw the word thousands out there, like it is nothing. "Oh how much is this?" says I. To which they reply "Oh only a few thousand." I usually turn pale and have to catch myself before I faint. I hope that is how most guys feel, so that I can say that I am not that big of a dork. Also I hope that I hide it well. I know cassie is trying to keep things resonable. 

Oh I am driving myself crazy.

     So recently I have been looking all over the internet for cheap deals on anything I might want. Recently I have found a auction website called Swoopo.com. I just tend to watch it. I have seen some people get really good deals and others I think got screwed. But I just keep watching . thrying to see if I can find a pattern. Something that will help me to get that really good deal before I jump in head first. 

     

I have found so far that you need to watch it like a hawk. You need to find the things you want. Do not just bid on everything. Early mornings seems to be a good time. But you have to be willing to spend some money before you even get the deal. Swoopo charges $0.75 each bid. Then if you win you pay what ever the price was when you finally win. Sometimes it in extremly cheap. Othertimes I have noticed that people are paying the same price or more as if they went to a store.

    

So I sit and wait. Hopeing I will find that place to bid. that I will make a great deal and win a great prize. Oh how I am driving myself insane. I better get back to it though. I have to find out all the otherways I have nissed out on something expensive for a cheap price.
