There is a bill going through the state now that will make it a life sentence to attempt or kill a policeman.

Now I like this kind of stuff. 

I wonder if the criminals will think about shooting at a policeman now.

I only hope that this law will pass with no plea bargaining, so no soft hearted judge can give less.

Those who give up freedom for security have neither. 

Rather than to tag onto another blog, Ithought I would start another fresh one.

Truthhurts stated that he did not think that we need the draft.

In humble opinion I think we need the draft.

All citizens should spend 2 years in the military after graduating high school.

Read (able bodied). It will build character, A respect for authority, Physical health, An education that has no equal, Mental discipline, a sense of self worth. 

My military comrade in arms know this.

 Now before anyone goes off the deep end. There are exceptions such as have to care for and or support another person. Hardship cases. 

FYI:

Although Tire Kingdom has great prices on tires, I would like to point out a problem that the supply system has.

You need shocks, Tire Kingdom quotes you a price of $145 for heavy duty shocks for your 8000 lb vehicle. You check with NAPA or Advaced Auto Parts and find out that they cost only$45.00 to $50.00

You ask the manager of the Tire Kingdom store why the big price difference? He tells you that his supply house charges him $85.00 for the shocks and he charges you a mark up of $60.00.

 I would caution anyone to check around on prices for any work that you need done other than tires. 

I guess this could be put under education. A learning experience.

I took my computer to a repair shop, it had crashed.

I was told that the motherboard was bad. I was planning on upgrading the unit anyway. I told the repair facility to install a new motherboard and upgrade the memory.

I got it back and ran it. There was no "d" partition just the "c" drive. All the window and money programs that came with the computer were gone. I ask the tech why he erased the drive. He said that they do that just incase there was a virius on it. And most of you know that you do not get a disk with all the programs on it when you buy a computer although you pay for the programs in the price of the computer.

How about you guests signing up and let us know your opinion on things.

We all need diverse opinions. Love to hear from you.

Pay attention people. They are about to play slick willy with us again.

I read in the My Clay Sun today that the Commission want to impose an IMPACT FEE on us to finance road improvements.

My blood pressure went up so high I thought I was going to by the farm. Is this a legal way to put another tax on us?

Years ago we voted for a 1/2 cent sales tas on gas to pay for road improvements. What did they do with the money?

Instead of using it for the roads they put it in the general fund. Ok now that they need money for the roads they need to put the money back into the road fund. This is outragious.  Any commissioner that votes for this will not get my vote next time.

I have problem that irratates me no end.

It is bad enough getting popups on every website you go to. Now we have to contend with it on tv.

I know what channel I am watching, I don't need the little popup in the lower corner to tell me.

Some times I can't hear the actors because of the popup aluding to an up coming show. This is distracting at the least and realy annoys me at the most.

I have not seen any news stories on this. Does anyone else have a problem with this? Is there anything we can do to stop it.? Maybe call Boortz or O'Riley, CNN or NPR? Even Comcast channel 4 has enlarged the advertise so that only 2 or 3 lines of programing are visiable.

I read in the Times Union that a high school has a class on how to be a gentleman. This is great.

Now if only they would have a class to teach "how to be a lady". instead of looking and acting like a hooker looking for her next john.

Thoes who give up freedom for security have neither

I read in the Times-Union this morning (Sunday 08-12-07), that $24 billion of the money that  was collected in gas tax for roads and bridges was spent on pork barrel projects in the 2005 transportation bill. That would have fixed a lot of bridges.

If we have to pay federal gas tax, shouldn't it go to repair the roads and bridges in this country?

Since Congress has seen fit to spend the money on pork barrel projucts insead of on roads and bridges, can we not say that they are responsable for the deaths of the people who died when the bridge in Missippi collapsed? I think they are. It is time for Congress to be held accountable for their actions.

As a reminder: Do not throw thoes new energy saving lightbulbs in the regular trash. They need to be taken to the hazzard waste site. They contain mercury.

We do not need mercury contaminating our drinking water supply.
