Honey, wheres my glasses?

What is wrong with being a stay at home mom? Now days, people almost wrinkle their nose when I tell them my wife stays at home. My wife is a taxi driver, gardener, Drill Sergeant, cook, maid, laundress, office manager, mom, wife, grandma, farmer, and teacher. I think it is wonderful that we can live on my income and do not have to pay for all the services she provides. Thank you honey!

Interesting website for you. www.acharmedwife.com

Special moment in history

Today is the anniversary of the 16th Street Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama. In reading about the sick S.O.B.''s and their motives, and the devastation the bombing caused, I came across a remarkable story about a very brave man.

His name was Clyde Kennard.

Growing up in the 60's and 70's in Central Illinois, I confess to being clueless about the Civil Rights Movement. Movies like Mississippi Burning and Ghosts of Mississippi intrigued me greatly, though they were still movies. Clyde Kennards story is real. Take the time to read about him. www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clyde_Kennard

Ramblings and Rumblings

How much longer do we have to put up with career politicians? Term limits, term limits, term limits! When will we, lazy Americans, do some research and get off our butts to vote out incumbents? Democratic and Republican parties sicken me. Not as much as the people who blindly support them.

I want a less stressful life. I want lower taxes. I want more prisons. I want ethanol. I want a pizza. I want neighborhoods where everybody looks after everyone. Not where everyone talks about everyone.

Does anyone miss the 1960's? Up until 1979, life was good. Hmmm...I graduated high school that year. Coincidence?

I wonder if the Cleavers are home?
