Family and friends. I haven't posted in quite some time because my wonderful wife has been taking care of keeping ya'll updated with kiddo pictures. However, recent events in the economic structure of America make it impossible for me to sit back idle any longer while corrupt, money-grubbing people try and run our beloved country into the ground. Please watch this youtube video and determine truth for yourself. Then, pass it on. Together we can make a stand.

P.S. It snowed today. A lot. Enough said. I am moving at the first opportunity. Who ever heard of snow on October 7th. Uncle Jim, can we come visit you?

I'm right there with you 100%
here is a clip I love:
My three year-old daughter Liberty is in the "potty talk" stage, where she finds every excuse to relate everything she says to feces and/or flatulation, including the Pledge of Allegiance.
She recently recited the Pledge and ended it with, "...with liberty and justice for poop."
At first I laughed. Then, as I realized how relevant her words were, it wasn't funny anymore.
The "Emergency Economic Stabilization Act" passed by Congress and signed by King George on October 3, 2008, was Washington taking a $700 billion dump on the head of every American.
There's another meaning in Libby's words: In a gross act of injustice to ordinary American's, Washington thought it expedient to dole out "justice" to the poop perpetrated by the Federal Reserve, Wall Street, and idiotic corporations. America is now the land where stupid crap pulled by the big guys gets tossed to the little guys; the aristocracy get the protection of the government at the expense of common Americans.
And to think that they pulled it off in the name of the little guy -- you know, "Main Street."
My little carefree Libby, innocent and precious beyond words, has no idea what landed on her, her children, her grandchildren and beyond that Friday of infamy, the day where America sold the last remnants of her soul to the devil of expediency.
National P.O.O.P. Day
In honor of my daughter Liberty and every other innocent American who will be scraping Washington's and Wall Street's poop off their lives for generations, I hereby declare October 3rd to be National P.O.O.P. Day. The acronym P.O.O.P. stands for:
P: Punish at the Polls
O: Ownership
O: One American
P: Prepare
Punish at the Polls
Break free from the tyranny of two-party mediocrity, monopolization, and rationalization. Throw off the shackles of "the lesser of two evils" thinking. Stop compromising with your vote. Vote your conscience. Vote on principle.
The Founders viewed elections as "mini-revolutions," and it's time for a revolution. Punish every Senator and Congressman who voted in favor of the bailout bill by booting them out of office. (See how your representative voted here.) Show them who is in charge. And in case you haven't heard, there are more than two presidential candidates in the current election.
Ownership
With the advent of National P.O.O.P Day, it's time for every American to stop the insanity of irresponsibility and apathy. Take ownership for your life and your results. Take ownership for your education, your career, your income, your financial health, your spiritual moorings. Stop selling out to false security and accept the responsibility of freedom.
"That government is best which governs the least, because its people discipline themselves." -Thomas Jefferson
One American
It's time to cast off our feelings and attitudes of futility, helplessness, and hopelessness. You can't do everything, but you can do something. Do it. Stop waiting for social validation -- act. Never underestimate the power of one individual acting from conscience.
Do something good, anything. Every day. Get out of debt. Write a book. Write to your Congressman. Read to a child. Love your spouse. Forgive your brother. Turn off the blasted TV and read the Federalist Papers instead.
You are One American, and America is nothing but the aggregate of all its Ones. Be the change. Make a difference.
"Immortality will come to such as are fit for it, and he who would be a great soul in the future must be a great soul now." -Ralph Waldo Emerson
Prepare
There's no easy fix to the problems that have been amassing for longer than a Century. Make no mistake -- we are in for hard times.
Prepare.
Spiritually: Deepen your relationship with God. Develop faith and overcome fear. Pray and meditate daily. Find that "connection in the stillness" and hold onto it like your life depends on it, as it indeed does.
Financially: Get out of debt. Spend less than you earn. Build cash reserves. Invest in hard, collateralized assets.
Temporally: Build a year's supply of food and water. Learn how to grow a garden. Become an emergency preparedness expert.
Mentally: Turn off the TV and devour the classics. Become a constitutional scholar. Understand what you're fighting for.
Socially: Expand and strengthen your relationships and networks. This will both extend your sphere of influence as well as give you resources in difficult times. Associate with like-minded people. Discuss the classics with your family and friends.
"Giving up the illusion that you can predict the future is a very liberating moment. All you can do is give yourself the capacity to respond -- the creation of that capacity is the purpose of strategy." -Lord John Browne of Madingley
Throw the Poop Back
It's time to take back America. The principles within National P.O.O.P. Day represent the People taking back their power by assuming their responsibility. This new National Poopyday (as opposed to "Holiday") represents us throwing back the crap that has been thrown on us against our will and in violation of our beloved Constitution.
The poop has hit the fan. And it's time for us to start flinging it back. In a good, productive way.
The early American colonists had the Boston Tea Party. Our generation has National P.O.O.P. Day. Support National P.O.O.P. Day by forwarding this to everyone you know and publishing it in full in every possible venue. When the air finally clears -- however long it takes -- we're going to have our Republic back.
Yes, Uncle Jim had sent that video ~ OUCH!!! I can't wait till this election is over.
Enough not said ~ how much did it snow there? I keep hoping SOMEthing will encourage you to move this direction. Seattle's closer than Kenai for sure : ) Grma P
