• Watching the news daily, I see trains and trucks battling for dominance at railroad crossings frequently. Trucks never win and you’d think that if they watched the news they’d know that. Public service announcement of the year.
• Tori and Erin are leaving for Chicago and Michigan on Saturday instead of Sunday. I guess this could be a public service announcement too, but of a more limited scope. Oh yeah, Michael is going with them.
• The guy that robbed us has another pre-trial hearing one week from today. I can’t wait until this is over.
• Played poker last night. Curt’s brother was there. I can’t stand playing with someone that dense. Granted we all have to learn to play poker, but this guy has been playing for some time and is still having those sitting next to him help him play. Three people playing one hand. Poker by committee.  I usually enjoy the games, but last night was horrid. Stupid shit.
• Every morning, as I sit and watch the news, I get this feeling of being watched. This morning I finally saw the watchers, my fish. They all gather at the front of the aquarium and stare at me until I get up and feed them. I have to assume that they do this in the evening too.
• Speaking of being watched, Erin says she sees ghosts when she sleeps at our house. Children are considered more susceptible to seeing the paranormal, but they usually grow out of it as their life gets more interesting. One of the ghosts Erin claims to see here is a headless child. Charming. How do you communicate with a headless ghost?
• Finally, the Confederate flag issue is over. The flag is coming down today. What a stupid thing to fight over. We’ve become a nation of whiney little bitches. Where does it say in the constitution that we have to be immune to being offended? Maybe I need to join the fray. Cracker Barrel offends me, I demand it be renamed to Caucasian Barrel.
• I hate all politicians. Left or right, they’re all in bed with each other. Does Bali have politicians?

Peace.

I’m the only one disseminating info here. What’s new with you?

I’m tired of the rain this year.  I spent some time at Harley today to print out some newsletters for the store and I couldn’t take my bike. Crappy rain.

Found out that the owner of the dealership had a motorcycle accident on Monday morning. Bad accident. Totaled the bike and almost totaled him. Broken leg, some ribs, and some internal bleeding. 86 year old in a pickup turned in front of him with no signal and not seeing him. Talked to his wife Tuesday afternoon and he’s impatient to get out and go back to work. I’d expect nothing less from him

It happened in Santa Fe. I HATE riding in that town and I’ve developed a few alternate routes to avoid riding in the heart of town. Stupid people that only care about themselves live and drive in Santa Fe.

I had to reregister all of our numbers again. Too many solicitations!

This came from a union guy in Chicago who didn’t vote for Obama. Very, very interesting perspective that I never thought of in this light.

——————-

It will be interesting to see what they put in his “Presidential Library” about his early years when he is out of office.

In a country where we take notice of many, many facets of our public figures’ lives, doesn’t seem odd that there’s so little we know about our current president, Barack Obama.

For example, we know that Andrew Jackson ‘s wife smoked a corn cob pipe and was accused of adultery; Abe Lincoln never went to school; Jack Kennedy wore a back brace; Harry Truman played the piano. As Americans, we enjoy knowing details about our newsmakers, but none of us know one single humanizing fact about the history of our own president.

We are all aware of the lack of uncontestable birth records for Obama; that document managing has been spectacularly successful.

There are however, several additional oddities in Obama’s history that appear to be as well managed as the birthing issue. One other interesting thing… There are no birth certificates of his daughters that can be found ?

It’s interesting that no one who ever dated him has shown up. The charisma that caused women to be drawn to him so strongly during his campaign, certainly would in the normal course of events, lead some lady to come forward, if only to garner some attention for herself. We all know about JFK’s magnetism, that McCain was no monk and quite a few details about Palin’s courtship and even her athletic prowess, Joe Biden’s aneurisms are no secret; look at Cheney and Clinton, we all know about their heart problems. Certainly Wild Bill Clinton’s exploits before and during his White House years, were well known. That’s why it’s so odd that not one lady has stepped up and said, “He was soooo shy…” or “What a great dancer…”

It’s virtually impossible to know anything about this fellow.

Who was the best man at his wedding? Start there. Then check groomsmen.

Then get the footage of the graduation ceremony. Has anyone talked to the professors? It is odd that no one is bragging that they knew him or taught him or lived with him.

When did he meet Michele, and how? Are there photos there? Every president gives to the public all their photos, etc. for their library, etc. What has he released? And who in hell voted for him to be the most popular man in 2010? Doesn’t this make you wonder?

Ever wonder why no one ever came forward from President Obama’s past saying they knew him, attended school with him, was his friend, etc?? Not one person has ever come forward from his past. It certainly is very, very strange…

This should be a cause for great concern. To those who voted for him, you may have elected an unqualified, inexperienced shadow man. Have you seen a movie named “The Manchurian Candidate”

As insignificant as each of us might be, someone with whom we went to school will remember our name or face; someone will remember we were the clown or the dork or the brain or the quiet one or the bully or something about us. George Stephanopoulos of ABC News said the same thing during the 2008 campaign. He questions why no one has acknowledged the president was in their classroom or ate in the same cafeteria or made impromptu speeches on campus. Stephanopoulos also was a classmate of Obama at Columbia — the class of 1984. He says he never had a single class with him.

He is such a great orator; why doesn’t anyone in Obama’s college class remember him? Why won’t he allow Columbia to release his records?

Nobody remembers Obama at Columbia University ….

Looking for evidence of Obama’s past, Fox News contacted 400 Columbia University students from the period when Obama claims to have been there… but none remembered him.

Wayne Allyn Root was, like Obama, a political science major at Columbia who also graduated in 1983. In 2008, Root says of Obama, “I don’t know a single person at Columbia that knew him, and they all know me. I don’t have a classmate who ever knew Barack Obama at Columbia, ever.”

Nobody recalls him. Root adds that he was also, like Obama, Class of ’83 Political Science, and says, “You don’t get more exact or closer than that. Never met him in my life, don’t know anyone who ever met him. At the class reunion, our 20th reunion five years ago, who was asked to be the speaker of the class? Me. No one ever heard of Barack! And five years ago, nobody even knew who he was. The guy who writes the class notes, who’s kind of the, as we say in New York, ‘the macha’ who knows everybody, has yet to find a person, a human who ever met him.”

Obama’s photograph does not appear in the school’s yearbook and Obama consistently declines requests to talk about his years at Columbia, provide school records, or provide the name of any former classmates or friends while at Columbia .
Some other interesting questions: Why was Obama’s law license inactivated in 2002? It is said there is no record of him ever taking the Bar exam.

Why was Michelle’s law license inactivated by court order? We understand that was forced to avoid fraud charges.

It is circulating that according to the U.S. Census, there is only one Barack Obama but 27 Social Security numbers and over 80 alias connected to him.

The Social Security number he uses now originated in Connecticut where he is reported to have never lived. And was originally registered to another man (Thomas Louis Wood) from Connecticut , who died in Hawaii while on vacation there. As we all know Social Security Numbers are only issued ‘once, they are not reused’
No wonder all his records are sealed…

Please continue sending this out to everyone. Somewhere, someone had to know him in school … before he reorganized” Chicago & burst upon the Scene at the 2004 Democratic Convention.

Clint Eastwood said his Republican National Convention speech achieved exactly what he wanted it to. He then proceeded to label President Barack Obama a “hoax.”….“President Obama is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people,”

An interesting read.

Watch this after you read the article.

We’ve been doing the SFHD State Park Challenge and today Nina and I knocked off 4 of the 35 parks giving us a total of 9 parks under our belt. We had a nice day out on the bike and hit some areas we’ve not seen in probably 15+ years. Weather was good for the most part, but we did hit some rain on the way home. We did about 15 miles in the rain on I-25.

We survived another 4th. No one shot at us. The usual suspects have finally gotten the hint that I’m always present and they didn’t even show up across the street. Who knows, they may have been scared off by January’s event. The dogs were not terrified this year, just slightly nervous, they were glued to Nina mostly.

We’re taking the bike out this morning. Breakfast, riding, and maybe lunch. We should be home early though, rain is in the forecast for later in the day. I’m sure they’re wrong as usual, but since I hate riding in the rain we’ll be home early.

Nina is wandering around the house as I type this trying to decide which jacket to wear during our ride. I am so glad that I don’t feel the cold as she does. I’ll probably bring a jacket but wear only sunscreen.

Texas man killed by alligators after he was warned not to swim because others saw alligators in the lake earlier. Nature improving the human gene pool.

Enjoy your Sunday!
