Our wardrobes went from muckluks to bug-dope in 2 days. You could hear the grass grow today. Spent the afternoon putting irrigation dams on one meadow and swatting bugs.

PICTURES OF MY SEESTER FOR $2.00

You are an idiot, you are becoming so boring with you neocon crap. No more moms go get jobs than did under Clinton. You like fff have no grasp on things, at least fff gives us a few different arguments from time to time..............you are a broken record if ignorance!

People are not trying to survive, they are trying to obtain a plasma tv. How ignorant can you be? There are people in Africa countries that are trying to survive. People in north korea hope to survive very few people in America are worried about surviving...........The more you speak on here the more you show your ignorance and it is getting tiring.

And whats wrong with having a plasma tv - or wanting to have your children have a better standard of living, education, and more conveniences than you had If I remember right- thats what my grandparents wantws for my parents- and my parents wanted for me -- but if we follow the Bush neocon economics we should have their few elitist buddies and the rest be semi-slave labor that more and more become like those in Africa or N. Korea looking at only how to survive-- with an ever diminishing middle class that can provide that better life for their children..

The problem is when people have more than their parents and grandparents but the cry like a big baby and use words like trying to SURVIVE. No one ever taught you to be thankful for what you have? And that there is less fortunate people around the world.

I know very few people if any that do not have it better than their parents and grandparent. I compare my 18 year old son to where I was when I was 18 and he has more and does more than I ever did, so do all his friends. His job during his senior year of H.S. making $7.00 an hour earning $175.00 a week buys and does a lot more for him than my $3.35 an hour job making $80.00 a week did for me back in 1982.

McCain Appeases Bush?
Thursday, May 15, 2008
A post here earlier today pointed out the hypocrisy of Bush comparing Obama to Nazi appeasers because Obama is in favor of negotiating with (some of) our enemies. But it just keeps getting more bizarre. Today McCain (who is largely running on his foreign policy experience) defended Bush�s remarks and further claimed that the reason that the hostages in Iran came home in the 80�s was because Reagan refused to negotiate.

Unfortunately, McCain seems to lost his bearings again. Has he forgotten the Iran-Contra Scandal? That�s where Reagan�s administration was caught red-handed sending arms to Iran in exchange for the release of the hostages. Doesn�t that sound like appeasement?

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/5/15/14913/5301/320/516310

UPDATE: It turns out that McCain has totally flip-flopped on whether we should be talking with Hamas. Two years ago he was in favor of it, now he is attacking Obama for being in favor of it. Which astoundingly is not even Obama�s position on Hamas (both Clinton and Obama have said that Hamas must change its policies toward Israel and terrorism before it can have diplomatic relations with the US).

Peach, my red-neck son, and the Kosmo Kid

He is always loaded for bear

The horns are on the outside of the vehicle

Our new-to-us used little outfit to save gas

Sundown a ways away from town

Little deer by the lake

Bigger deer by the lake

Red sky at night is a cowboy's delight

Come on baby, light my wire

When the turkeys come home to roost

Turkeys on top

Getting nervous

Turkey and the moon

Meanwhile, the Kosmo Kid is wondering why he suggested I take a picture.

And the huge trickle down impact is almost unbelievable. Those people spend money at convenience stores, cafes, motels - you name it. It's nothing for a crew of Halliburton hands - those no-good sorry bastards that work for evil, greedy Halliburton - to leave a waitress a $100 tip on Friday because she put up with their greasy asses all week while they were on a location close to the cafe where she works.

Naw, that can't be right. Either the waitress is really a callgirl, or the money is counterfeit, or both.

Cal, DC Cook is desperate for I & C Techs. Sun Tech is offering $35 an hour and $480 a week per diem. That aint half bad for a blue collar job. I know nothig of the Michigan cost of living. It sounds decent.

I think it sounds pretty decent as well. I also couldn't help but hijack one of Oldtimer's recent posts to throw in here, am a little surprised he's trying to sell pictures of his seester:

You been in one of these "Oil Towns"?????-I have- no housing- schools can't keep up with the influx-jails/courts/social systems can't keep up/ workers/families live like migrant workers, or else are split by 100's-1000's of miles-- makes many more single family (maybe see Dad once every month or two, families) and you wonder why morals, ethics and family values have gone to hell....

We'll see it again soon with the new TransCanada Pipeline that is going in-- good dollars for the county/economy for a few months but hell on the morals/culture of the area with everything they bring in to do the work....

Drug enforcement officers dream- but GW decided to cancel most all funding for that this year

Good lookin' saddle Haymaker.

It even has a ring behind the seat that you could snap a strap to hold you in.
