  It's a question I think most of us are are always asking ourselves.  But the way I see it, the way we are going about trying to change things, will not work. It has not worked so far, has it? Take the Occupy Wall Street movement. It's just turning into nothing but violence and unfortunately a waste of time and money. If you really want to change things you have to hit them where it really counts, their pocketbooks. I'm sure there are enough very over educated people involved with this movement that can come up with a better plan to change things in a way that the rest of us 99% don't look at you in disgust for your over extreme actions that unfortunately is attracting violence and crime. It's the kind of thing that can not happen over night. It's a slow process.You must have patients for real change to take place. It must be done in such a way that the top 1% do not even realize it's happening until it's to late. They are no longer the all powerful w...

I hope you all have a great Thanksgiving. Try not to gobble to much or you'll wobble trying to hit all those Black Friday sales.

The husband and his prize buck. It has 11 points and a 20 inch spread.  Would you believe he shot it at the end of our driveway?

This past week Channel 7 has been doing stories on the cold case of Jean Viken.I did see one of them. In it the police said they know who did it but they are waiting for someone to come forward. But no matter what four young children will be without their mother for the rest of their lives because someone decided to end her life out of the meanness of their heart. Here is the story I found on the internet: Jean Viken's friends and family remember her as a loving mother of four young kids, a devoted daughter and sister. But nearly four years after her murder, a dark cloud hangs over Jean's memory, as they continue to search for answers. "We were having a birthday party for her because all of her friends would have wanted to get together like we would have done if she was here," Jane Hempel said. Almost five months after Jane Hempel reported her sister Jean Viken missing, family and friends gathered to celebrate her birthday, hoping to feel some semblance o...

You ever have one of those days where your not sure if someone is doing or treating you in a way that makes you unsure if they are doing it out of being dense or if they are just doing it out the meanness of their heart? That is how some of my week felt. Well, OK just one day. At least this week. But I did get over it. One of my rules is to that when something is bothering me is to let me whine or vent for the rest of the day because tomorrow I'll be a whole lot calmer. It works for me. I do put up with allot of unfairness from people I know do it out of the meanness of their heart. I roll with the punches so to speak. Because some of these people do things to see how riled up they can get you. They push you till you finally have a melt down. People are always wondering will it ever end? I'm sorry to say it will not. All we can do is keep on defending ourselves the best way we can. Hopefully without really hurting each other or ourselves.  Over the years I have figured out th...

  There are so many things out there that are a waste of time and money.  One thing I was thinking of is this Occupy Wall Street movement.  It was a good idea at first and it could have been but now the people who become over passionate about things and become violent are going to ruin it.  One step they have taken with getting people to take their money out of big banks and putting them in credit unions is a good start. Dealing with a bank has become so impersonal they want you to only deal with a computer.  When I was talking to someone the other day about this they said they thought most bankers are con artists. Finding ways to con people out of their money in the most uncaring ways. More for them, less for the average hard working person. It is more then just big banks that are trying to control things, it's corporations that are so big they no longer think of their employees as people but almost like slaves. But I say that without the average person they w...
