The gun law the gun lovers love?

Tuesday, September 30th, 2003

Everyone is so hip to play this new bill as something so reasonable both sides are supporting it. I always smell a rat when I hear this stuff. Thankfully GOA is pointing out the rotting carcus.

Seatbelt in your SUV

Tuesday, September 30th, 2003

The seatbelt laws in Indiana are very specific about what vehicles require the front seat passengers to wear their belts. Trucks are exempt from the law and the ticket. But the police have been enforcing the law on SUV drivers whether they had truck plates or not which is in and of itself a […]

New Gun Laws

Tuesday, September 30th, 2003

It isn’t often that gun laws in Indiana change. And I’m sure many are aware of the new requirements to purchase a firearm in Indiana (cached ) . The federal check that our carry permits allowed us to get around (because the permits required the same checks to aquire) now applies to […]

Nicotine Free Costs MORE?

Tuesday, September 30th, 2003

Sent to Quest Cigs customer service email address:
To whom it may concern,
With the assistance of your product I have gone from a 2 carton a week smoker to an 8 pack a week smoker in about 4 months. I have been using the level 3’s now for almost 10 weeks and have been very […]

Republicans becoming traitors to morality and conservatism?

Tuesday, September 30th, 2003

The recall in California is quickly pointing out who are the true conservatives on the radio, on the television, in California politics and in Washington DC. I’ve watched and listened with amazement as supposed Republican pundit after Republican pundit insinuated that McClintock should get out of Arnold’s way. Even Sean Hannity! (I would […]

Nicotine Free Smoker

Sunday, September 28th, 2003

I have been a nicotine free smoker now for well over two months. I am quite happy with my slow but steady progress. I smoke a pack or less a day now, down from 2-3 packs a day, and I find myself not thinking about having a smoke nearly as often. So thus far […]

Minor car woe resolved

Sunday, September 28th, 2003

In less than a week after getting my new car the first problem shows up. I expect “as-is” to mean “as- is” (don’t get me started on extended warranties) so I had Larry’s take a look first. They pulled out a screw and I thought I was good, well worth $6. But at the […]

Corporate America

Friday, September 19th, 2003

One thing I’ve learned over the past few years is that “Team Player” means “come along now and don’t make a fuss”. Yeah, right, only for so long as they are the team capitain and you don’t make any waves because then “no one is indespensible”. You know that this is […]

Christmas Disappointment

Thursday, September 18th, 2003

There is little that is more disappointing than finding out the company Christmas party has been renamed so as not to “offend” anyone. Especially when one is theoretically in a postion to at least vote against the nonsense. Well Dennis Prager has hit the nail on the head.

A few more tidbits

Thursday, September 18th, 2003

Sometimes I wonder if I should bulletpoint these…
More efforts are underway to weaken our immigration system by entrenched bureaucats. The poltical parties stopped replacing all the bureaucratic functionaries below cabinet level back in the early 1800’s… too bad.
The ACLU is doing a great job of proving they’re a rabid political animal on the […]

Chop it Down!

Thursday, September 18th, 2003

Who is opposed to economic development of poor nations now? Everytime I read some drivel about not chopping down the jungle, oops, RAIN FOREST, I want to buy a plane ticket and pack my chainsaw.
Where these green-Nazi’s are ultimately pushing us is toward a fascist world government where the US will be […]

Howard Dean?

Thursday, September 18th, 2003

Someone asked me what I thought about Howard Dean. Needless to say I was confused that 1) anyone that knows me should ask such a stupid question, 2) anyone takes Dean seriously. Of course my negative response got me “branded” but that doesn’t surprise me. What really surprised me was who asked… I […]

I’m so sick of WHINERS!

Thursday, September 18th, 2003

Hey Bono, we could always call it all off if you’re going to be an ungrateful little brat One of these days these whiners are going to bite the hand the feeds them one too many times. Between Bono and Arafat that time should have been sometime last century.
Just fill out the stupid paperwork […]

Some days….

Thursday, September 18th, 2003

it doesn’t pay to get out of bed. After taking 3 days off going back to work is always fun. I’m usually far enough behind even after a couple of days that when I do go back to the office I look at the stack and want to go crawl under a rock. […]

The 19th rules Californians Idiots

Monday, September 15th, 2003

The 19th circuit has yet again proven they are morons. By their logic Grey Davis shoudln’t be in office either, since he was elected by idiots that couldn’t figure out the punch card ballots. The courts interjection in state elections on such weak grounds as these sets an incredibly dangerous precedent.

Church Sign

Monday, September 15th, 2003

Pastor Monte of Faith Baptist in Avon has “Jesus said ‘Love your enemies’ Mat 5:44″ on his sign this week. Where are the crys of “intolerance” ?
Interestingly enough I received a call from a Dr today who read my blurb in the Indy Star last week. He seems to have only called to say […]

Legislated “Diversity” in Indonesia

Monday, September 15th, 2003

In his autobiography Evangelist Franklin Graham related how Islamic Imams told him that the Christian groups were the only ones coming to the aid of poor Muslim countries.
There are some in the Muslim population of Indonesia that are learning that if they send their children to Christian schools the children actually get an education. […]

Tidbits

Saturday, September 13th, 2003

The Indy Star not only printed my whopping 3 sentences yesterday but One, Two others. While I applaud the Star for printing them, they should have read them too .
More peace, tolerance and diversity from “extremists” (gag)
Wisconson will have to settle for 46th
Really scary… are the Feds scared? Fear a […]

The other side

Thursday, September 11th, 2003

of 9-11 is remembering as well.
Many comments defending the “celebrations” occuring in the UK as acts by extremists who have hijacked Islam have me wondering as to the sanity of those making the comments. Are the violent ones truely the “radicals”? Or are those who simply ignore the passages of the […]

Repeat after me…

Wednesday, September 10th, 2003

… Islam is a religion of peace.

Exodus Gold Redux?

Wednesday, September 10th, 2003

It looks like these guys aren’t going to give up on recovering the Exodus gold. Reading further down in the article it appears others feel as I do about the 400 years of slavery. Frankly the whole thing is silly, not to mention 4000 years late.

Patriot II

Wednesday, September 10th, 2003

I like our President but this kind of talk makes me really nervous. The superficial provisions appear all too logical, of course.. what’s further down?

Here comes the EU

Wednesday, September 10th, 2003

I knews they were batty they’re also greedy psychos who don’t realize how totally transparent they really are.

The Battle Rages in Wisconsin

Wednesday, September 10th, 2003

In this corner:
“It’s about time the state of Wisconsin said, ‘Hey, man! Hallelujah! We want to be the 45th state to allow individuals the right to protect themselves.’ Sen. Dave Zien (right), Eau Claire Republican, a sponsor of the bill. Rep. Scott Gunderson (R-Waterford) listens at left.
And in the other corner:
“I truly fear that the […]

Islam Is The Enemy

Tuesday, September 9th, 2003

It is sad that those who condem Pastor Marc Monte didn’t show up for the sermon ( Indy Star 1, Indy Star 2, The Flyer, World Net Daily, OpEd 9/9 1st, OpEd 9/9 2nd ). They appear very foolish to those of us who bothered to make the drive and listened. Then […]
