What’s Next?

This is ridiculous!  So now a person can’t have kids over to their house, or babysit for short periods of time without interference from the government? Without licenses or paperwork……..What happened to being neighborly? It’s getting to the point where a person can’t do anything without permission first.

Are People Really This Crazy?

Just when I think this “messiah” mentality can’t get much worse. It does.

Benjamin Netanyahu

I watched Mr. Netanyahu as he spoke to the UN yesterday.   I found his speech to be bold and direct.  Refreshing, actually.  I wish there were more courageous speeches like his.  He spoke up and told it like it is. Good for him!  Quite frankly, I thought he showed remarkable restraint in his addressing the [...]

Singing For The President

Several blogs back I talked about some books written about Barak Obama that are specifically targeting young children. I was concerned because I felt like the books were almost messianic in their text. I believe that reading biographies about a president is fine. Children should know who the president is and what he is about….but [...]

H1N1 Flu Shot

So, I get up this morning and turn on the news.  I hear that the state of Massachusetts is considering making the H1N1 flu shot mandatory. This is crazy! The H1N1 is not really all that different than the regular influenza. Yes, people die each year from the flu. Most of the time they die [...]

Rush Creek –Part 3

Sorry that it took me a few days to get back to the conclusion of my history of Rush Creek series.  I just felt like I needed to talk about 9/11 and pay tribute to the ones who died on that fateful day.
So, on to the last history lesson of the Rush Creek Township of [...]

Watching The Coverage Of The 9/12 Project

Tens of thousands of people are in Washington D.C. today. They came from all over the country to show “the powers that be” enough is enough! Our government is out of control with the spending, the taxing, the taking over of things they have no business being involved in. Will our government even listen to [...]

9/11-Never Forget

Alan Jackson sang so eloquently about what was on our nation’s heart on this day 8 years ago. Never let us forget.
