Si Se Peude!

I voted this morning. It was a hard choice but I decided to vote for the candidate that's rumored to be an un-american socialist, marxist, far left winger, who pals around with terrorists, and who wants to spread the weath around. I've also heard that a certain plumber-pundit (or would it be pundit-plumber?) predicts that if this person is elected it will result in death to isreal. Chances are we'll be a lot less safe if this person is elected as well.

However, I'm not going to tell you who I voted for.

Waste of 3 hours, this was!

Happy Halloween

Down the tubes....

I recall watching a George Carlin stand up comedy bit one time where he was questioning various methaphors, or phrases. At one point he was talking about things 'going down the tubes' and how he'd never seen these "Tubes" before... but just now I found the picture here and now I guess I'm a little worried? It's unfortunate that these tubes appeared after his passing.... but doesn't it always seem to go that way?

Quote from his bit.......
"Down the tubes -- hear that one a lot. People say, "Ah, the country is going down the tubes."

What tubes? Have you seen any tubes? Where are these tubes? And where do they go? And how come there's more than one tube?

It would seem to me, one country, one tube. But is every state all of a sudden have to have its own tube now? One tube is all you need. But a tube that big? Somebody would have seen it by now. "Hey Joey! Get a load of these *****' tubes!"

Time keeps on slippen slippen....

Not much time left between now and my first Marathon. I wonder if it's a bad sign that after running 5 miles last night I'm having trouble walking this morning? Guess I'll know more when I run 20 miles on Sunday...hahaha (Shoot me!) Anyway it's sorta fun (torture actually) for me to do comparrisons.... so a marathon is 26.2 miles right ... so if you drove from Garden of the Gods to the Broadmore Hotel, and "then" up to the airforce academy that's 26.8 miles.... From Abbzugs house to Loveland, and then "back" to Abbzugs house is 26 miles... Abbzugs house to 1-25 and 66th avenue exit in Longmont is 28 miles... from the "Village" in Gulfport to Tampa airport is only 23.8 Miles so you'd need to add a few miles somewhere...

My Retirement Account Trend Analysis

Honestly.....

Interesting thoughts....

Blogfucious says....
1. One's political party really says nothing about one's politics.
a. "Conservative" v. "Liberal" certainly after the past 8 years "conservative" can't possibly mean smaller government and less spending right? Which party is for smaller government again? which is for less taxes? seing as though this bailout is tax payer money no? I'm confused.

2. One's religious affiliations say nothing about one's actual morals.
a. Would think there are plenty of examples of religious figures gone bad.

3. One's 'stated position' on abortion says nothing about one's actual value placed on a human life.
a. Would think more innocent lives have died under pro-life Bush than under pro-choice Clinton when factoring in wars, executions, and intangibles like poverty, etc.,no?

4. A person I know said they're voting republican because he likes their morals more.
a. Then I recalled 'immoral' Clinton being prosecuted by Newt while Newt Gingrich himself was having an 'immoral' affair. Would think it's not wise in general to look towards the government for moral guidance regardless of "party" affiliation.

Hence, vote for the person and not the baseless, meritless, and essentially meaningless party label, or whatever that really means these days anyway? What is which and which is what again?

Then I hear that Obama is being chided for his 'socialist' views... I wonder what those people call what's going on now. I.e. government buying companies and banks. Just curious.

Even without stating my own positions on the aforementioned topics - some perceptions out there make me scratch my head.

Don't it always seem to go

Ribhard Went A Courtin'

Here's the birthday boy back in the day all spiffed up for a date in the traditional southern formal garb: a tuxedo shirt, bow tie, cummerbund, and cutoffs. Notice that before the advent of boxed wine, there was the brown paper bag.
