Happy Veterans day..


I know this is late. but happy veterans day. I would like to take some time to talk about all my relatives and In laws that I know about that fought to make this country have continual peace first of all I had a great uncle served in world war 1, my Grandpa and his brothers all served in World War 2, my Mom's brother, and my Father-in-law for severing in Vietnam. and finally my Mom's brother-in-law for serving over 20 years in National Guard. I remember first Iraq war where my uncle went to Germany to serve while the men who would normally be in Germany could go to Iraq. I remember that My mom would show support to troops by volunteering to baby sit kids, while the wifes got updates about what is going on in the war and to their spouses. I remember on the National guard Base in Muscatine Ia. seeing the soldiers prepare physically at the gym and later after exercise in there uniform with the greatest respect and honor for there sacrifice. I love our Nation I think it is the best nation in the World. Because our faith in god made it that way. May god our Father bless our soldiers around the world during this unease time of Economical and political unrest.

V, is it a V or is it a 5


well the statement is true in one way the show is self is about 5. has the Sci fi world come to this where we are looking at shows and movies that have already been done. but wait they can tell it differently. when I heard about this show that shows on ABC I thought well what's the harm I could watch one episode. well I think its like a really old episode of twilight zone where the these aliens come from another planet and offer hope, peace,love etc. but it just turns our that they are just monsters that wishes to eat humans. I must say how ever glen beck does make an excellent point the Aliens do remind me of politicians. but this is one show I will not be watching. there was not enough Blowing things up.

SG-U it is SG or just anthoer Battle Star Wanna Be


As I was watching the pilot episode of SG-U I wondered if I had seen some of the military actors before On battle star Galactica in fact after meeting Dr Rush in the SG-U series he reminds me of Dr. Guyus Baltair of Battle Star Galactica. I am not sure if I really consider this a Star Gate franchise. you Don't get the happy bomb feeling that only Col. O'Neill (two L's) that bring you instead you get a feeling of survival. like battle star Galactica. what heck is a character like ELI doing in Star Gate Universe you don't get Dr. Daniel Jackson or Dr. McKay feel instead you get a Crazy kid who likes to play online games too much. The soldiers seem to young to be Star Gate Franchise. The pilot episode in my opinion (which probably does not count for much is like 3 out 10) How ever you could get better over time. but I think tit will be too dark, and therefore not really a Star Gate show.

The more things change the more they stay the same.


Does anyone remember during the 2008 campaign that Obama promised that he would not Tax anyone who makes less than 250,000 dollars a year. well he was kind of telling the truth he did not raise the income tax on those who make less than 250,000 dollars. How ever with new cap and trade bill that will more than likely get passed. we will have to pay more for our energy bills. speaking of energy bills who pays for white house energy bills oh yes we do. well I hope is planning on personal changing all of his incandescent bulbs with compact florescent bulbs, Because that is the green thing to do. basically here is what is going to happen the Government is going to be able to tax energy companies for not being green, and in turn they will raise the rates on us. um is anyone reading the bills in Congress anymore. Since the rates are going up this maybe my last entry I may not be able to pay for my electric bill. but don't worry everyone it just me rambling so I might be blowing everything out of proportion. but at least I will have free health care, and maybe my wonderful Government Motors car Formally General Motors.

Give Capitalism a Chance


Now, you all may know I like to ramble that is what makes me mad (Crazy). and Maybe I see things just a little different then most people. but I have a dumb question for all of us. Is not our Economy setup so that 1. People decided what product and companies should stay in business? 2. so that failing business fail for a reason and usually a big and better company takes over? Now please don't get me wrong I love to help people out I am for a government for the people and by the people and even to help the people. but I am not for the government for the companies. which is why if notice I have a nice little graphic on the top of the post one important reason if you are like me and think that all this bail out stuff is bogus then please take this graphic post on your blog or facebook or whatever. remember give capitalism a chance because it maybe the only thing that will save us in the end.

a letter to GM and Chrysler.

dear CEO's GM and Chrysler,

since you guys car want my tax money the next time I go into a dealership don't check my credit just give the car that I want for free. I think you owe it too me for taking my tax money. but I do have some solutions for you I mean with the issue not selling any cars. 1. make your cars more affordable, no one wants to take 2nd or 3rd mortgage out on there home to get a car. take the average wage person makes around 10.00 to 14.00 hr, so multiply that by 8 then by 5 that should tell you how much they make if people barely make 2000 dollars a month what makes you think that they can afford 1900 car payment. 2. when a business is failing usually CEO bosses etc usually have to start making sacrifices maybe putting that 6 month trip to Hawaii with you bonuses might be a good thing to cut back. take you family and the family car too a park or east or west coast beach instead. you may find out that is not the money you spend on the vacation it is the quality time you spend. 3. be honest about your price. if a 30,000 dollar is really only built using 6000 maybe do a little mark up and tell your customers hey this how much it cost to produce this is how much we are going to sell it for. for more help just send me letter back

Sincerely

mad man Mark
