It has been a while since I posted anything on here in my blog and I do appologize for being absent during this difficult time in my life. I had a light stroke two months ago and I have been recovering from it. My left side of my body has been affected with my hand and foot being numb all the time now.

I have set some goals for my self this year and I have built myself up to walking at least four miles a day. My insulin is doing what it is suppose to do for a change and my new meds have my blood pressure at a tolerable range that I can live with. I thank God every day that I have here on Earth and I try not to miss a moment during that space of time.

I realize that I am turning fifty this year and my youngest sons birthday was yesterday. I fixed him a pot of chicken and dumplings and his sister fixed a chocolate delight. He later went to the casino and then bought a fith of crown royal to take home with hime for his twenty first birthday present.

I have been writing on the helium web site and have been trying to encourage readers to go there and read my stuff. I really enjoy the site and it gives me a freedom to express myself and share some things I know.

Today was a day of importance in the republican bid for the presidency. Governor Palin finally was let loose by John McCain to go after the Obama ticket. After all the defiling comments made towards her, she finally had a chance to strike back at the democratic side of the ticket.

Obama's association to Bill Ayers is not new but the media seems to be scared to put things in perspective. The group "Acorn" was formed by Ayers and Obama and was contributed to by tax payers money through Obama. Just last week during the most difficult time in America, congress wanted to add ACORN into the bill for it to pass. This caused flags to go up all over the Congress and Senate. I am glad it failed for that main reason.

Congress and the Senate are so corrupt they can not pass a bill unless they get a kick back from it. Barney Frank and all his cronies in congress should be put in jail for misleading the American people but he is not the only one to mislead the American people. There are many others that should be investigated too. Chris Dodd had a hand in this mess too.

Now Obama is mad because he has been attacked for his association with Bill Ayers. Obama and Ayers started the group ACORN and Obama trained and funded the group that is now being one of the main reasons for voter fraud in most of the battle ground states. ACORN contributed to the down fall of the economy in the housing markets putting pressure on banks to accept unacceptable loans.

Bill Ayers a know terrorist from the sixties worked with Obama in the start up Phase of ACORN and their dealings of organizing a group to put low housing at the top of their list for low income families was badly managed and corrupt by internal members.

The fact that it is only now making the news should not surprise anyone. When Obama said he would set down with Iran and North Korea it did not surprise me in the least. After all, Obama should feel comfortable in the presence of terrorist. He had a lot of training and association with Bill Ayers in his port folio and if being a community organizer is a part of this, then he is no better than a gangster or mob boss.

I watched the news the other day and they had kids singing a praise for Obama. It was a scary sight to see and listen too. Almost unnerving with it's brain washing overtones and appearance. People are being mislead and there is no hope of reaching out to the people that are going to vote for this man. If McCain does not do something quick, he may loose the race and we will loose America and a great opportunity for real change.

Obama's change will be what every American has left in their pockets. Wake up America!

I have been following the political adventures of the democrats and republicans and it is not a very pretty site. I am leaning towards McCain/Palin because I think they will hold the people's interest better than the Chicago political hijackers that back Obama. Obama's economic advisers that came with him on to the political scene after Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac went bust could very well be the reason that Wall Street is in the mess it is in.

Do I want this candidate in office running the most powerful office in the world? No! I sure do not and Obama and his advisers will not get my vote under any circumstances. Obama is a smooth talker and that is all he is bringing to the table. He has the democrats hypnotised with his words and the followers of the democratic side can not see the forest for the trees.

Political strategy and manipulation to certain markets on wall street by influential investors that control Chicago have put the plan into action to get Obama elected even if it ruins this country and every tax payers life. True both candidates have their weaknesses, but McCain and Palin will sure have their hands full with all the corrupt politicians in the Senate and Congress if they are elected.

McCain has postponed his campaign to help out on the 700B bailout of the Wall Street fiasco and Obama said he would show up if needed. Obama would probably only vote present anyway and avoid any big decision to the United States economy. Maybe it is best if he not attend, he needs to stay out of the way and let the real people make the decisions that America needs.

Obama does not fool me and McCain still has a lot to prove to me that either are worthy to run the United States. Obama looks scared to death when he talks about the crisis that is going on and is more worried about the debate that is coming up soon. I sure hope they have his teleprompter up to speed when they start asking questions at the debate. I do not think he has had an original thought since he has started. That makes him a terrorist best friend if he becomes elected in November.

Big oil in our own country has undermined this nations economy by not letting it's grasp of the fossil fuel monopoly transition into a different means of power for this nation. Congress seems more determined to let money and power determine the out come of this country by letting greed and power stall any hope of carrying this great country into the future.

The CEO's of Wall Street seemed to be determined to drive the economy into a dry well and leave it for us to cover up(taxpayer). I think it is time for the American people to wake up and read between the lines of this election. We are only going to get one chance at this and our nation and economy are in jeopardy.

If our government had not been a sleep at the wheel, Americans might have had a change to divert this crisis. Passing the buck to someone else seems to always be the agenda and giving themselves pay raises and long vacations to spend all their ear mark monies they have collected through scamming the American people are big parts problems at hand.

Now that the FBI is involved in all the mishandling of market funds do not be surprised at how many snakes they flush out in the Senate and Congress. This is going to be a long drawn out affair. Heads are probably going to fall, just like the leaves on the trees this Autumn. Mean while it will be the American people that suffer the most from all of this. So if your candidate is running their campaign .." or "Reform" be careful not to jump on either sides band wagon.

The main thing all Americans should not do is panic! A little revolution never hurt anything and sometimes it helps the things we want to change and reform most. I think we should throw these two candidates out and start over. Maybe we should put Warren Buffet into the mix with Donald Trump as Vice President. I sometimes wonder if Forbes and Bill Gates have ever thought of running for office together. We could use a little of their experience right now.

In closing I can only speculate on things that are behind the scenes. Like other countries that use their oil to undermine our economy. Like the loan the Saudis gave to CitiBank earlier this year. We are loosening our country one major bank at a time and no one is fighting this hostile take over of America's assets here or abroad. Maybe the terrorist are succeeding in disrupting our economy while we are preoccupied by threats and wars in far east countries.

These countries know that money is what make America work and it is the head of the beast. If you cut the head off the body will fall. That is what is happening to the United States Of America. No shots fired, no one to come to our rescue in bad times. I guess other countries are right. If you give someone enough power and rope, they will eventually hang themselves.

I love America and hate to see things such as this happen over and over again, so let's set our differences aside and put someone in office that has our best interest at heart, before all this change kills us all. Amen!

Well I have turned a year older this month and I really do not feel the age of forty nine. I am a Leo the lion and my astrological sign describes me to a tee. Passionate and loving as I am, I just never seem to fit into any type of life style. I am just a simple man that enjoys simple things.

I have received birthday wishes from friends and family and I have realized that they are getting on up in age as well. With me being the youngest of ten in my family I have come to appreciate their wisdom and struggles through out their lives as well. I love and miss them all and distance can not divide us even though we live many miles away from each other.

I am determined to stay active and develop my writing skills as I grow older. Maybe I will leave something behind that people will remember me by after I die. One never knows these things about life and the older I get I realize this to be true. I do not want to take anything for granted anymore and I wish to live a rich and enjoying life.

I want to live and love the people in my life and touch and feel the joy and the pain that makes these things real. God must have a plan for me because he has blessed me so often and has watched over me when I have done stupid things. I have lived the adventure and traveled the byways of life to the best of my abilities. Friends and family have enriched my life and for that I am truly grateful. I may be growing older along with the Earth and my destiny may not be revealed yet but anyway it is all about the ride to get there.

I sit here some days and wonder out loud, if I am doing any good for my family! I have been retired now for three years and I have tried other jobs and even gone in to business for myself.

My wife thinks I suck at what ever I do or try to do. I am good at a lot of different things and the master of none. I am an excellent cook, house keeper, writer and smart buisness man. I deserve the benefit of the doubt. I worked my entire life for this moment in time to enjoy what life I have left.

Still I feel like I am spinning my wheels and going no where. I have drive and determination. The problem is I can not start a project with out my daughter calling every five minutes on the phone.

I love her and the grand kids, but I have to try and make a living too. I guess God is trying to tell me what is most important. I keep making time for her because I know she is alone and has no one to talk to during the day.

My wife see's me as a work at home slut and has no time for me any more. I have come to terms with the fact that things may have looked good at the time. Things have really turned south and my little world is going to hell in a hand basket.

I guess I should just bask in the moment and be thankful for all the good things that have happened in my life. I still have my dreams to hold on to and I have never been a quiter. I just get tired of things pulling me in different directions at once.

We have all at one time or another sat at our pc's and just rambled on about things we know little about. Mine is the fuel situation that America seems to have no clue about. Why do we wait till the last moment before we act on anything? Do we think if we ignore it, it will fix it's self?

The elcections are no better. Will John MCcain prevail or will the Obama syndrome take over leaving us will little experience to carry the people of the United States in to further darkness?

Natural disasters seem to be happening every day now. Death and destruction aided by crazy dictatorship countries that care more about lining their pockets with cash more than the welfare of their own people.

Has society gone mad? People leaving babies in dumpsters. Giving two year olds the hit off of a joint. To the emotional rape of the Mesiah groupee infested people of Texas cults in the news. Jesus would not approve of this and niether should we. I may not understand a lot of things about the world, but in my heart I know this is wrong.

We all have a unique character that stays inside of us. Exposing the beast as I like to call it, is not a hard thing to do. The secret to a good exposing should be dealt with in a mature manner though.

No one likes to be portrayed as an idiot when they show little miniscule peices of them selves to the public. So when you lay it all on the line , make sure that you save some thing for later.

Top ten things to know when exposing your self to the public:

1) Try to use proper English when you talk.

2) Use your hands to capitalize on your expression of explaining things to people.

3) Never wear a overcoat with nothing on under it.

4) Do not let your PC camera show all the empty liquor bottles behind wear you sit.

5) Use pet names when describing your spouse or boy friend.

6) Always tell women of inquiring minds that you are married. Even if you are not.

7) Paint a picture of your self that is pleasant for evey one to understand.

8) Tell people you have been there already and done all that.

9) You can make many friends on myspace by making people laugh.

10) You can catch more friends with honey than you can with vineagar.

These are just ten simple ways to expose your self to the community on here. I am sure if these do not work, some one will be glad to point you in the right direction.

Enjoy!

It has been a while since I have written on my blog and I decided to take my name off the endangered species list. I am on the verge of calling it quits once again in the matromonial aspects of my life.

I have had problems with the retirement thing and I have been made to feel like a kept man here at home. A man that has no responsibilities or no money as it has been pointed out to me.

My wife's son tore up her car seven months ago and I have not had the money or resources to fix the damn thing. Her son ran the car low on oil and now the car rattles like a type writer gone mad. I refused to fix it and that has bit me in the ass.

My son borrowed my truck and now the transmission has no reverse. I do not have the money or the resources to fix it either so I am stuck with two damn cars that will start up and run but are un drivable.

My wife stays at her office forty miles away and I go no where and spend no more money than I have to. I pay bills with my retirement check each month and she pays the rest with the money she makes.

I get a phone call a couple of weeks ago from my wife and she tells me to bring the car title over to her, she has bought herself a new car. 300.00 dollars a month car payment and I have no idea where she is going to get the money from to pay for it.

I was better off living alone and I should not have ever agreed to remarry. I would have been a lot better off than worrying about how to make ends meet each month with out her pilling things on me.

This really pisses me off to no end. I am tired of having to deal with stupid shit around here all the time. What can I say though? It's her money, she works hard for it.  So I let it go down in to the history books as a loss.

Sure baby , go a head and buy the car! She has cost me in tax money, by her loosing her home before we were married. Now we have to pay back taxes and recieve no refunds for a long time to come. Yet she worries every day about my retirement money that I have invested to see me through till I am the perfect retirement age.

I figure she has her another man already because she rarley comes home. She visits and expects me to act like she is the shit. She can go fuck her self for all I care. After all she has been married six times before me.

I wish I had a crystal ball or something to have warned me about all the bull shit that has come down on me since I retired. It would have saved me a lot of grief in the end. I no longer care anymore about whether we make it in marriage any more. I am alone all the time as it is.

I will be a success in different avenues of my life. I have retired from a successful job that I miss. I have become a free lance writer and have started reaping the benifits from that. I still have my health and good looks. Still I look stupid in this marriage.

So much for growing old and gray, this shit is just getting old! I want more out of life than I am getting right now and the only way I can respond to it is to take some kind of action. I am glad I never added her to my checking account. She would definetly have us much deeper in the hole than we are right now.

I will continue this proclamation in later blogs as this has made me feel much better getting this shit off my chest.

It has come to my attention that when things kick you in the mouth it doesn’t stop there. It piles up on you like the defense of a football team. One thing after another. It is a every day juggling act and I am the circus clown looking stupid.

Where is the break in the action? Will I ever be able to take a deep breath again? So many questions and very little answers on how to deal with this killer stress that is on me right now.

I just can not seem to jump start the things nessasary to get things to where I see a little light at the elusive end of the tunnel.When it rains here it pours and I am not talking about the weather.

Life has claimed it’s crafty toll on me. I have no sense of direction any more. I get lost in my writing and the days pass with out recolection or care. I am alone most of the time and my wife has to support both of us from here job forty miles away.

I know her stress levels are out of the roof. My concerns are the same as hers. We are fighting a loosing battle because I chose to retire and now the lack of money and the security it offered is slowly taking over the ways and means of actually getting something done.

It is enough to make one give up when they really have a lot of fight left in them. I gave it my best shot and God has watched me make my midstakes along the way. I have no one to blame but myself for choosing the path I have taken.

I have two cars that are paid for but can not drive. One the motor went out after paying it off and my truck’s transmission has seen it’s reverse go south like wise. I can not even drive to the store and if I did , I wouldn’t have the money to buy anything.

My wife stays in her office forty miles away and stays away from me to be little my self esteem as a man. I feel like a kept man when I really do pull my weight when it comes to the every month bills. The United States Government has increased the width of my anus. I have to pay back taxes with money I really can not afford to spare at the moment.

Hospital bill collectors are calling every day wanting their money from when my wife was sick and in the hospital. Her operation was 23,000 dollars and our cut to pay was 3,000. The physician bill is 500.00 dolars and they have already turned us over to a collection agency.

So any of you people out there in cyber land think life is easy, it is not. No one wants to take the easy way out but I can see why kids deal drugs and have no direction in to days society. It has esculated to the point that kids this day and time can not get experience in the work place because they lack the resources  to continue a education to ensure a degree.

The days of the working man are fast approaching prehistoric numbers all the way in to our childrens futures. No job security, no chance to redeem what was or could have been. Only the stress of growing old and looking at high medical cost. What has the modern man have to look forward to these days?

Opprotunity has stopped knocking and the buzzards are starting to circle the dying optomistic views of once positive Americans. Our Government has even lost focus and direction on the best paths to take for ensuring jobs and future monies down the road.

I could go on all day about the incosistencies of the troubles all Americans face today. It would not accomplish much and would only make people mad about their own situation. I do not want to promote negativity when we still should have hope in our hearts.

I can only imagine the thoughts in Jesus’s mind,

When he looked down from the holy cross,

If only it had been a different place and time,

The world would have truely been lost,

 

The tears that flowed down his pale cheeks,

Were for the pain of you and I,

And as the people around cried and weeped,

The doves of peace stood by,

 

Forgive them Father for they know not what they do,

Loomed down from the cross above,

As Mary clung to the cross like dew,

Jesus passed with the wings of the dove,

 

The Earth shook and the clouds darkened in the sky,

The rain fell on the sinners below,

Jesus’s head dropped with a sigh,

As the sinners bobbed to and fro,

 

The sign above Jesus’s head had read,

King of the Jews in bold Latin print,

The lack of understanding had made Jesus dead,

The actions of sinners would have to repent,

 

The third day Jesus arose from the dead,

To be with the heavenly father above,

No more to suffer the Earth’s cruel dread,

He took our sins to heart with love,
