Hello mine waltriptexians...so glad to see the chatter on the forum...SUSAN ! ! !! Wonderful pictures, thank you for posting them. That kind of scenery is just mangificent. Been a "Rocky Mountain Man" sort of guy mine whole life. Yeah, that cool weather is hard to take isnt it! It was 80 this morning out by the cement pond. Me and Jack and Big Oliver went out there and sat on the swing before daybreak, and all of us fell asleep. Next thing we remember, Diane was waking us up along with that "lucky old sun".
Yeah Kay, I'm with you about mr ego and a and m. Truth be told, I really dont like football anymore, or baseball, or really any sport. I use to love football, and could not wait till the college season and pro season started. Havent felt like that in 5 or more years. I havent a clue who won the super bowl and whirld series the last 10 years...
Guess it's just one of the many "passages" we go through. I only watch NASCAR because my son likes to watch it, and GOLF, because my other son likes it. Was watching TV with my grandson, and he was flippin around to all the stupid so called reality shows, (you want reality, get old) and I finally said to lite on something good, so he turned to NASCAR. I told him I really didnt want to watch that unless he did, and I only watched it because his dad watches it. He started laughing and said he really didnt like NASCAR, and he only watched it because his dad watches it. Hmmm, I wonder if Kevin watches it because he thinks Taylor and I like it?
Round and round we go eh! ! !
Hey Pat, in my humble opinion, we should not be in the middle east, except to support Israel...PERIOD! ! ! The muslim tribes have been fighting each other since the beginning of time...as well as all the different african tribes...wonder why we havent interfered with all those different african tribal wars! ! ! Now, my leanings are, I'm about 12 aircraft carriers to the right of Attila the Hun, but I dont want to interfere where I know I (America) am not welcome ! ! ! Just dont bring the fight to me, and if you do, I will annilate whosoever does! ! ! Then maybe they and others wont do it again! ! ! Let them fight it out, and solve their own problems, which they never will, because they are mostly uncivilized, and living and thinking the way they did from the beginning of time! They still live in the desert, and have made no strides to advance their society!
(remember Pol Pot? He had doctors, lawyers, teachers, musicians, intellectuals, educated people killed, because he and his ilk wanted to live in the past, the so called simple life, and didnt want the aforementioned groups to interfere! ! !) America did nothing about it, and there were atrocious civil rights violations commited, not to mention a million plus murders...hmmm, maybe a million or more murders is not a civil rights violation!!! Gee, wonder what is! ! ! Seems there was another gentleman, Hitler I believe was his name, he was just the opposite, he wanted to get rid of what he deemed was the riff raff, jews, gypsys, blacks, sick lame and lazy, uneducated people, and anyone not of the "pure race" German aryans...and Hitler was not even German...but Austrian...
The muslims dont want "their" women to get an education, to be anything other than the slaves they are. That alone should get the blood boiling in ALL WOMEN everywhere, especially in this country. Wonder why it hasnt! Where are the civil rights leaders????? The women that should be leading the charge in that area, should have started with the women in congress, first ladies, any woman in a position of governmental power...but where is the outrage?
The women leaders should be screaming at the top of their lungs, everyday, all day long, about the treatment of muslim women! ! ! They should be marching in the streets of every country, until these barbaric practices against women are stopped, especially here in America, land of the free and home of the brave...but they're not...why not???? Well, it isnt convenient for one, and for another, there is no political or monetary gain.....
The leaders of this country are all indignant and self righteous when it comes to dealing with countries with bad track records in "civil rights violations" ie just about every country we STILL do business with. If enslaving women and honor killings are not a violation of civil rights, then I dont know what is! It can be said, that we ought to mind our own business, right? Ok, then lets do just that! ! ! ! And all the other countries should mind their own business when it comes to America...right?
HONOR KILLINGS???? you have got to be kidding me...all I hear is just a smattering of grumbling in this area...I hear tell, that this new regime in America, is trying to allow "SHIRIA LAW" to become active in this country....soon, I guess they will amend the constitution to allow for "honor killings" instead of divorce! My question, is who will be "stoned", husband? or wife? or children?
I read where a muslim father, here in America, land of the free and home of the brave, killed his two daughters because they had become too "westernized"....way to go pop! YOU CAME TO AMERICA, you had to know what you were coming to, unless of course, you dont follow the age old custom, "WHEN IN ROME"....Does that mean, that we can come to your country, and do the same? I cant believe there are people out there that want to carry on a dialogue with these people, and get them to be "reasonable"...oh yeah, all depends on whose definition of "reasonable" you use...right? you might as well try to talk a grizzly bear out of eating you for dinner!!!!!!! And I hate to denegrate the majestic grizzly bear by comparing them to these...savages! ! !
Why, did you know that the "American Indian, Native Americans, "THA NOBLE SAVAGE", (I find nothing noble about them at all) all use to fight each other? Yup, hard as that is to believe, they fought over things such as horses, food, territory, hunting rights, and to prove they were fierce warriors, and just about anything that they deemed valuable..and they even captured other "indians" and enslaved them, as well as the new comers, tha white people....they were savages then, and that kind of behavior in the 21st century is still practiced in other countries, and by same kind of people...uncivilized savages! ! ! !
Before I am labeled "an injun hater", I have admired the indians ability for survival and stamina and horsemanship, allthough they did mistreat their livestock, as well as their women. Did you also know that the "five tribes in the east, Hurons, Irroquois, Mohicans and two others I cant remember, and I may have it backwards, but the five tribes were led by a...gasp, a WOMAN! ! ! The matriarch! ! ! ! Wonder how she fell from grace ! ! ! (an aside here, the Irroquois were labeled as rattlesnake people, because they were the worst of the worst in treatment of any unfortunate soul that should find them selves captured by these SAVAGES. And a woman was leading them....hmmmm...
America has never been welcome, no matter where we have been, even when invited, except maybe getting rid of hitler, and then we quickly wore out our welcome. Politics has no business being involved in war...politics, is generally what gets us in a war in the first place, and causes much grief to the ones that are placed in harms way. Of course, having said that, there are always exceptions to the rule, and for that matter, all rules. But you have to be smart enough, to know where and when not to get involved, and for the most part, the elected morons dont seem to have that ability! ! I have followed, retroactively, politics from the revolution, and actively, till now, and politics went down hill from then till now.
Russia fought in Afganistan for 15 years, with us suppling arms to the ones the russians were fighting. Now we are fighting those same people, and they are using our weapons against us, and I'll just bet the Russians are laughing their collective asses off because we are (the political powers that be) stupider than the Russians! (also, the Russians and the chinese were supplying North vietnam and north korea with arms to fight us).....Now I know folks will be saying, "but those people are hurting other people, using poison gas to keep their people in line, and we just cant allow that"..."so we will send all our young men in there and get them killed and maimed and cause grief to all their families, because we cant allow that" and all for a "just cause"...YEAH RIGHT! The folks that want to help, let them all go...you start sending politicians and well meaning do gooders to war, and I guarantee you, war will cease to be! ! ! !
I am not opposed to helping others, but only if you take the politics and politicians out of the equation! Let the warriors fight...let the red cross administer help...let the churches help...let anyone help that wants to, BUT POLITICIANS STAY OUT OF IT! ! ! !
As an active member of the PATRIOT GUARD, I have ridden in many funeral processions and stood at attention with the American Flag that the soldier or marine died for, or thought he or she was defending, and watched many many times, the anguish suffered by the family of the fallen service man or woman, and it is just too too too much...every stinkin politician should have to shoulder the burden that the families carry, but they dont! ! Oh well, all in the name of democracy, right? ...whatever the cost...to others! ! ! !
My God, I could go on and on about the attrocities this country has commited to it's own people by the politicians in power, all in the name of "justice, right, and sadly God" and it's all about "power"! ! ! Of course this kind of talk, if monitored by the present regime, is classified as "terroist...hate speech...seditious"... It's amazing how a corrupt government hates the truth, and ours is just about as corrupt as any there is. To get to where I am, you have to read read read, and read somemore. Follow the money, the quest for power, who stands to gain from whatever actions are being called for. THE LOBBYs...big business and big government.
Just look at our past records, Korea, Vietnam, just to name two...now it's Iraq, Afganistan, and soon to be Syria, and then probably Iran, and on and on ad nauseum...Putting all the above out of your mind, and only thinking "good thoughts", hoping and wishing, and praying, hasnt changed a thing, and wont change anything, unless ALL PEOPLE do it, and ALL PEOPLE ARE NOT GONNA DO IT! ! ! Believe, there are people out there that just hate others, and will do anything necessary to destroy those they hate...hate is a terrible thing isnt it!
Have I thoroughly confused and and made you mad? I hope not, but the truth is what it is, the truth, and not just how I see it, but how history has recorded the truth. Eventually a lie told as the truth, has a way of surfacing, like our treatment of native americans, and veterans to name two groups.
You ever wonder about the difference in treatment an active veteran gets as opposed to the "has been veterans" like me and our classmates and those that came before us, and even the veterans not on active service today that have fought in Iraq and afganistan etc? It's like, "we dont know you now"! ! ! They sure as hell knew us when we went in harms way for em (the politicians)! ! !
Remember WWI ? President (we will not fight a war overseas) Wilson and congress promised the WWI vets a bonus and other things they were not gonna follow through on, if they would join up and help put the "dirty hun" in his place. Well the Marines and Army and Navy did just that. Did congress follow through with their promises? Not just no, but hell no. When the vets marched on D.C., to get what they thought they justly deserved and was promised them, they were fired upon by our own military led by the likes of Capt Eisenhower, and other officers like Patton, MacArthur, Bradley, Truman etc. All names that are revered in the military history books...I know, they were just following orders from their superiors...but where does it all end?
I hope you dont hold the above disertation against me, it's just how I see things have turned out and how we are where we are...once again, if one thirsts for truth and righteousness, ya gotta read read read...everything, even things that are distateful...
Hmmm, there goes the smoke alarm...breakfast is ready! Guess I'll go see what culinary delight ol Hop Sing and Wishbone have cooked up for our dining pleasure!
Keep the sun at your six, and ride boldly ride, but safely...
Oh, we are getting down to the wire, and still havent found a place to live...homelessness is looming mighty large on the horizon...Well, anyone that thinks like me, ought to be homeless, eh what!
Your frien and other brother...attila the hun gry...
