Bad Things Happen to Damn Good People!

In Grab Bags on April 30, 2008 at 4:13 am

Yesterday, a number of local residents in my small town Virgilina community suffered from a natural disaster.  A tornado swept much of their landscaping, part of their homes, and much of their belongings right before their eyes.  Two families who endured this inconceivable event are very close friends of mine.  Thankfully, none of them were injured, having witnessed and been present during the category (2) tornado.

Until you’ve physically observed such an event or are somehow affected by it, the feeling you receive is truly chimerical.  The somatic-induced time, memories, and labor lost in this particular tragedy are inestimable.

A beloved comrad of mine, in conversation and reflection, discussed how the childhood recollections of giving her mother beautiful Bradford trees for her birthday and christmas were no longer physically present, but the memories are unforgettable.

I ask each of my readers to pray for these families, the community, and anyone else who has suffered such an event.  Alas, as trite as it may sound, bad things happen to good people.  But in the end, God works in mysterious ways.

Pretty Sweet, huh?

Oil Shortages? That’s blasphemy!

In Grab Bags on April 22, 2008 at 3:54 pm

My dear friend Wendy, who works in the newspaper industry graciously sent me this and I thought it was blog-worthy material :)

A lot of folks can’t understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country.
Well, there’s a very simple answer.
Nobody bothered to check the oil.
We just didn’t know we were getting low.
The reason for that is purely geographical.
Our OIL is located in :
Alaska
California
Coastal Florida
Coastal Louisiana
Wyoming
Utah
Kansas
Oklahoma
Pennsylvania
Texas
And, our dipsticks are located in DC

Any Questions? NO?…Didn’t think so. 

Jack Murtha calls someone old?

In Election '08 on April 17, 2008 at 3:49 pm

Forgive me for the serious delay in updates.  This story was brought to my attention by Drudge Report…perhaps, my favoritist site on the net! 

As you’ve probably read from some of my former posts, I am no fan of John McCain.  However, Jack 75 YEAR OLD Murtha said that McCain is too old to be president.  What’s wrong with this picture???  He isn’t even a ranking member of Congress, and he’s calling someone else old because of his own failed political aspirations.

Ann Coulter said it best, “Jack Murtha is the reason soldiers invented fragging!”;

The Gift of Life

In Grab Bags on April 8, 2008 at 10:15 pm

For the first time in my 17 years of living, today, I gave the gift of life ♥.  Donating blood has always been something I’ve wanted to do; although, the age requirement has consistently imposed a hindrance on my desire up until this year.  I was very optimistic about giving blood.  I was nervous, but nevertheless excited to share my good health with the world.  I figure that as a good steward of my country, as long as like-minded people continue to donate their haleness, the government won’t be expected to fund or regulate such endeavors. 

Imagine if every person donated something that they possessed in excess.  Whether it be their time, money, insight, voice, service, intellect, or in this circumstance, health.  Many underestimate the power of volunteering and its advantageous effect on society at large.  And truthfully, the last thing we want to hear is:

“The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’”

Every little bit counts, and I feel unusually humane :) !

“… Mr. Clinton, sir, America didn’t trust you with our health-care system. America didn’t trust you with gays in the military. America doesn’t trust you with our 21-year-old daughters, and we sure, Lord, don’t trust you with our guns.”

You will be missed!  Also, a special thanks to my friend Adam T. from the University of Maine for bringing my attention to such a memorable phrase coined by The Man, The Myth, and The Legend; and former NRA President.  Conservatives across America will forever be indebted to your gracious dedication to preserving the right to bear arms.

DRUDGEREPORT IS BLOCKED???

In Grab Bags on April 3, 2008 at 3:56 pm

Everday during my lunch break at school, I get online to check my e-mail and my favorite news source, the Drudge Report.  For some odd and unapparent reason, today the website is blocked.  I have visited this site EVERYDAY since I’ve lived here and it’s never been blocked before.  Don’t get me wrong…I’m in favor of protecting children from pornographic sites and obscenities, but Drudge Report?  You can’t be serious?

I’m furious…if anyone is feeling generous, how about texting me the latest news for the day?  I wish I had an IPhone for IDrudge!!!!

Blogosphere headlines!

So, I was a little pessimistic about this blogging thing, but things are already looking up!  Check out what Robert Stacey McCain, former editor of the Washington Times and currently working on a book, from The Other McCain blog had to say about the Coultress!  This is in reference to the George Washington University’s YAF Chapter’s hosting of Karl Rove this past Friday, March 28th.

3.  Share six unimportant things about yourself.

  1. Ann Coulter’s Wednesday columns make my week livable.
  2. I’m allergic to cats, which sucks because I’m deathly afraid of rats and mice (which they prey on)!
  3. My favorite holiday is the 4th of July (not because I’m patriotic), but because the food is THE BEST.  I’m a really picky eater…American only, please :) !
  4. I get annoyed by the sound of my own voice.
  5. This past year I took up hunting for the first time, but am too scared to kill a deer because I don’t want to skin it (GROSS!)…I just like shooting the gun!
  6. I check my e-mail religiously.

4.  Tag six random people at the end of your entry.

Now that liberals have chosen our  (GOP) party nominee, they can’t quite seem to seal the deal on their own little darling.  Shall it be the obviously inexperienced, blatantly racist Obamarama or the only Democrat to ever be treated like a Republican by the MSM, Hillary Clinton?

The media continuously pretends to claim that Hillary Clinton doesn’t have a chance of winning the party’s nomination.  They deem it ‘mathmatically’ impossible for her to win.  And while that may appear to be true, one thing that EVERYONE in the free world should note is that, as long as Hillary’s last name remains Clinton, she should never be underestimated.

By the way, why is Ron Paul still running for President?
