Why is so much bad behavior being exposed? It's being exposed more lately because we are a world that runs on video and audio. Seeing or hearing  is believing.  But will all this exposure stop bad behavior? Nope. The more exposure there is the worse things become. Is there any way to stop it? Nope. It's too late. At least I think it might be too late. If we really want to find away to reduce bad behavior we all have to look within ourselves and ask ourselves, Why do we behave so badly? Do we feel insecure? Do we feel entitled to be superior? Do we just want someone to cower in our presents? Do we need to find someone to stroke an ego we think needs to be stroked? There is more then likely a million and one questions we could ask our selves about why we do things the things we do. Unfortunately we really don't want to hear the truth about why we do things the do. It would be admitting to things we don't want to admit too. Reality is something we don't want to ow...

   Does common sense exist any more? I was asking people this question today at work just to see what kind of answers I would get. Some said yes.  Some said nope. A few said it's on life support.  I then asked a couple other questions, like: Do politicians have common sense? Everyone said. Do bankers have common sense? Most said no. Some said that some do but not much. When it comes to the politicians I don't think anyone of them has any common sense. Take the recent scandal over sending a boner to some different females via twitter. I just want to ask why he thought it would not be found by others. When are people going to learn not to put those kind of pictures out there on the internet. I always watch what I put out there. I don't put many personal pics out there that could be used by someone else in away that it could be used in ways that it was not meant to be. It's just another sign that politicians feel they are above the common person. They are in other wor...

Well it's graduation time. It's time for you to find a job. Or maybe prepare for more schooling. Either way it's going to be an up hill battle.( It's a very big hill. More like a mountain.) Unemployment is up, again.  And so is your debt. Hopes for a good future are very low. Depression is up. You really have to think about more schooling, is it really worth it in the long run? I never went on to collage, I only have a high school education. Not to say I wouldn't have liked to go to collage. But I'm still not sure what I want to be. So I dabble in this and I dabble in that.  I wonder if there are some of those jobs out there that people go to collage for that would be easier to get if instead of going to collage you could just be an apprentice to. You now learning what you need to know about the job and not having to take classes that have nothing to do with the subject at hand.  You start at the bottom and work your way up, without the massive debt you get f...

  Memorial weekend for the US.  There are allot of things to think about this weekend. Those who gave their lives for the freedom of this country. Those who are trying to recover from the disasters of the latest tornadoes Already the rebuilding has begun in Joplin. No matter what happens to us we will continue on. As the old song goes: Pick yourself up ,  Dust yourself off, Start all over again. But never forget those who gave you the opportunity  to do just that.

OK  now that May 21st has come and gone some people are wondering, now what? Well I'll make it simple, life goes on. As for the next date Oct 21, 2011, I think the chance the whole world will die a fiery death has a very slim chance of happening. Although I did read this morning that a volcano has started erupting in Iceland again. Enough that it is once again disrupting air travel in that area. The end of the world will not happen all in one day. Nothing will happen all in one day.Unless of course a large mentor crashes to Earth or a solar flare knocks out all electronic things, then all bets are off. Until then I will live my life as I always have. Footloose and fancy free. I just wonder what all those people who really believed the end was happening will do now? I heard some quite their jobs and sold everything. Why do that if the world was going to end? You can't take money with you when you go. Just more unemployed people looking for a job. Oh well, on with the future. ...

What decade or time would you like to live or relive and why? I have been asking people this question for a couple of weeks just to see what kind of answers I would get. It's been an interesting time. Some of the answers were kind of expected while others were a little surprising. Some people didn't know what to say. They would get this far a way look and say they have never thought about it. Some just said they had no desire to live or relive another time. Well for the ones who did give an answer I would like to thank you for your time. So with no farther delay here are the results. There was one who did answer  2000  because I made him choose. A few said 1990's because: Finical boom Things were a little cheaper Reliving their childhood. Some said 1980's because: Finically better To relive childhood Disco, fun times Redo teen years and go to collage Just a better time for them 1970's because: goals were reached less regulations, more freedo...

Are you ready for the end of the world a week from today? Really? Next Saturday? I wonder how it will happen. Will it be like the movie 2011? Or will we all just fall over dead for no reason at all? I think that if it says it in the bible that exact statement should be posted on this sign so people can look it up for themselves. What do I think will happen? What happens everyday. The same old, same old. People will keep doing what they do everyday. I will do what I do everyday. I will get up, and seeing it will be Saturday maybe post something here. Have my breakfast while I watch the news. After that I will do some house work. Have a light lunch. Maybe weather permitting something outside. Take care of the animals outside. I might go to town and get something from the store if I need it. Make supper. Watch a little TV. Maybe play in bed. Then go to sleep. I will wake up on Sunday because nothing that huge will happen here. Maybe seeing this church is based in Cali...
