Obama’s Boo Boo for You You

a simple little expression of fond loyalty
Barack Obama must be wanting to end his Presidential bid rather quickly. If you haven’t heard, he decided NOT to wear a Pin with the American Flag on it. Then he went out to talk about it! Here’s a  choice bit  from what he said:

“I decided I won’t wear that pin on my chest,” he said in the interview. “Instead, I’m going to try to tell the American people what I believe will make this country great, and hopefully that will be a testament to my patriotism.” 

How Stupid can you be? On the other hand, if he has problems wearing the flag, then I am glad he took it off.

Blackwater Rocks and the Senate Rolls

Blackwater... doing their job one terrorist at a time 

I am reminded that the same ‘people’ who oppose  BLACKWATER  are the same folks who are working hard to lose Iraq. Is this a coincidence? I think not. Obviously, these independent contractors are effective … and SOMEONE wants them off the job!

Let me add, it goes without question that the American Military does a great job, but there are ‘things’ that  private contractors  can do that actually  save our military personnel.

When I think of the folks that want us to lose… I am reminded about the ‘importance’ of putting ‘governers’ on our military trucks and strictly adhearing to a 35 mph speed limit. I guess this was and is to allow our people to become better targets? Oh, there I go being a synic.

Blackwater and others serve a purpose, give it up ladies.

Golf is a wonderfully Social Sport

Look who's golfing?When I was young, I never had the opportunity to engage in what I would call ‘social’ sports. This would include things like: ping pong, bowling, tennis and golf.

A large part of this was how I was raised.

In any event, I had the opportunity in college and afterwards to become familiar with many of these new contests, including handball and squash… but golf was the most amusing. To me, hiting a golf ball was much like throwing the discus ( something that paid for college) and — besides — I could drive a long way.

My eldest daughter has picked up the golf bug… and she too can drive well. Plus, golf is something you can do with friends, it is the most social of sports.

Karla (my youngest) drew this picture of Kristin in action.

Cal Poly needs to change it or lose it

Cal Poly College RepublicansChange is very hard for institutions. They fear change. Change represents a threat. After the left started their march through the educational system in America in the 60’s, they closed the door behind them to keep ‘everyone else’ out.

This is the REAL reason why there are few conservatives, moderates or Republicans in Academia.

Cal Poly is not the worst, but it is typical of the problem of a ‘one party’ system in higher education. It is an example of “you think like us, or you’re against us.”

Although many universities (including Cal Poly) are continuing to maintain apparently illegal and draconian ‘speech codes’ ( see thefire.org),  it’s really hard to argue against ‘free speech.’ Censorship invades even science where discussion of forbidden topics, such as the differences between men and women, are forbidden. As administrators must be saying, ‘stick to the code!’

So, I would like to congratulate the  Cal Poly College Republicans  for all that they are doing to make Cal Poly better by encouraging a more open discussion of ideas. Keep up the good fight.

Nice first Column!

Halloween is Coming! SoooOoooon!

One of the nicest thnigs about Halloween is the children

Before Halloween became so ‘befuddled’ by devolving into an ‘adult party’, it was a wonderful time for adults to demonstrate some random kindness to the children of their community. It was a mysterious ‘treasure hunt’ for children.

The questions were all the same with the kids. Where do your friends live? Shall we drop by on my teacher? And…. who is giving out the best candy and treats?

Our children were also very captivated by the season and I was always curious as to who they wished to become on that special night? I made many a paper mache’ head for Kristin and Karla… but I remember one of my favorites. Karen wanted to go as “Spock.” This became quite a group production. I was tasked with making the shirt … and it sort of came out okay.

This Halloween will have far less children… but we always give out the ‘best’… or so I am told.
