It may not be the fast lane but I can guarantee you that any lane that I'm in...is good for a few laughs...and I'm starting to rub off on the least expected people..I was at the library the other day after I was made a Obama Mama and was excited to share my good news and fun stories about it to Nancy..so I lean over the counter and say"Guess what?"...and she says:"You're pregnant!"...and I laughed and said:"hell no, if I was pregnant, I wouldn't be laughing and I would have said. and before I could finish the sentence Nancy says:"you would have said 'oh fuck'..." and then both us us cracked up laughing ...We were giggling like 3 year olds that said poop in church..Then Sat. night Sara comes by to return the vacuum cleaner and is whining about all the hours she is working..20-22 hours at the Dollar Store and over 20 hours at Bush's Chicken..I said 'let me tell you something sweety..when people die and they lay them out in the cemetery, they never have "I wish I had worked more" on their headstone...You're 18 years old..you have your whole life ahead of you to work your ass off, you should be out partying and having fun with your friends...and your Daddy(my best friend David) should be calling me up at 3 in the morning screaming he can't find his daughter'....
What the hell, no one ever listens to me right?....Well, she goes to work today and gives notice at the $ store..only going to work one job and since all of her friends work at Bush's, she's going to keep that job..T. (the boss) said thanks, Jackie, now your hours just went up....What the fuck?....After all these years, someone actually paid attention to me and did what I suggested?....Holy shit!...None of my kids or grand kids every listened to me..Well, that's not true..Jenny and Jamie left the Baptist Church because I taught them not be homophobes and when the Baptists said being homosexual was a sin, they left Bible School and walked all the way home..They said"if my Grandma says it's ok to be homosexual, it's ok with us."..They were 8-9 years old...proud moment in my life, I'll tell you that...
Margaret and Mary came by this afternoon. Soon as General Hospital is over all the little old ladies (including me) go check their mail..She came by to give me some 0f my mail that ended up in her box...I informed her that I had put her down as a alternate for Waco the 29Th of the month...She says"Does it matter if I'm not registered to vote?"....I freaked fucking out...'Your not registered to vote???? No more bitching about Bush for you Missy, until you're registered to vote...' Then I asked Mary if she was registered and she said no...fuck what is the matter with these people...You can't fucking bitch unless you vote..so I went to the Post Office and got the registration forms and will get them registered to vote..Mary said 'you'll have to tell me who to vote for'...
I almost had a stroke...no one can tell you who to vote for, you have to decide this on your own...After telling me she didn't know anything about 'all that stuff'...I told her I would down load all the information from Glassbooth.org for her..and would explain to her what the issues were and where the people running for office stood on the issues...Jeez, sometimes people piss me off..I told Margaret I'm going to kick your skinny ass. I can't believe you do all this bitching about Bush and his crap for the past 7 years and you're not even registered to vote..'...I'm still steamed..I'm going to put a sign up on the bulletin board and let the old farts here know if they want to be registered to vote or need a ride to go vote to let me know...Being an old fart is no excuse..Of all the people voting, they should care the most..sheesh!...
What else can I bitch about.....Babs brought back the Gnome ...I will sneak over there and leave it again..
We've had rain and more rain...but honestly..I'm not bitching about that..especially after reading about how Maine, Ohio and that area have gotten so much snow..Ohio Hottie Kevin said they had 19 inches..holy shit..we were freaking out when we had a couple of inches last year..
OH, good news ...I have been continuing to have low blood sugar, so all day yesterday I didn't take my med's and haven't taken any today...My blood sugar went up to 179 after I had oatmeal with peanut butter, then I had a salad for lunch and after lunch it was 91...So I think I can control my diabetes with out the medication if I just eat right...(yeah yeah, I know...)..but I think I will try it and see what happens...I suppose I should ask Dr. E. but I'm going to try this for 2 days or so and see how that works...if it goes up I can split a pill in two and take half of one twice a day instead of 2 a day..I knew I could kick this diabetes ass...But that means NO Dublin Dr. Pepper..jeez...that sucks..sigh*
Oh, Shady Lane sent me a Texans for Obama bumper sticker...to go along with my We're the deciders by Molly Ivins and the black ribbon that says "enough with the ribbons"...Just think about how many people I piss off when I drive my truck to town.....yupper...life is fucking good....
ps...I just finished reading Duma Key...fucking rocked....little long..but it was vintage King..

STEALING FROM BETTY BOWERS
I know it's not nice to steal..but this is just so good I had to share it with you...Goddess knows I love Betty Bowers and her word needs to be put out there so the rest of the world can read her..and maybe if I get you hooked you'll add her to your blog roll....It's like she and I were seperated at birth...me being the much prettier twin to her smarter other sister..and don't expect me to explain the age difference...
this is about 2 people that are so overrated they even piss off the Goddess.
THE NO SIN ZONE
Thanks Oprah, But I Already Have a Savior, Dear
9th March 2008
Thanks Oprah, But I Already Have a Savior, Dearposted in celebrities, people with funny names, Scientologists and other Guillible People, Christians Behaving Badly, Dr. Phil, Oprah, Money (and other things Bush puts down the drain), show biz trash, my superior values, pesky sick, poor people, gasing up your Bentley, Jesus, vicious gossip out of Christian concern, other people's sins
With a patience even Jesus covets, I’ve unflinchingly watched Oprah Winfrey furiously root out every last opportunity to insinuate herself into my awareness, like a tenacious hog snorting in feverish determination to get that very last truffle. But the relentless promotion of “The Big Give[r]” may well prove to be an insurmountable obstacle to my composure. Honestly, if I see Oprah Winfrey’s preening mug one more time I will undoubtedly beseech the nearest cloud formation: “Take her now, Lord! And step on it!” After all, as Oprah would be the first to tell you, she is simply too good for this Earth.
I know that there is much to admire about the woman, but in the past several years her ability to annoy has exceeded her ability to inspire. As a Christian, I get rather territorial when someone starts marketing herself as a Savior. And Oprah, the beneficent, unmarried, all-powerful person who wants to be loved by all (but gets tetchy when adulation isn’t automatic by any), clearly has a Messiah Complex. The only thing she seems to love more than being praised for her selflessness is being praised for herself. When not playing the shameless, fawning sycophant to Scientologists and other crazy brands of celebrity, she is staging some publicity coup to give Mary Hart yet one more opportunity to gush about all the good Saint Oprah does.
Frankly, I can forgive the woman for her relentless narcissism; it’s difficult to avoid after two decades of uninterrupted flattery. I can even forgive her for charging poor women exorbitant fees for the privilege of attending one of her empowerment “Look At How Wonderful — And Thin! — I Am” road shows. I can even overlook her naïve pimping for James Frey — and then pretending to be offended by the duplicitousness only when she realized he was hurting her brand. I can forgive her being a coconspirator in Tom Cruise’s manic phoniness, mainly because it is so entertaining to watch two shameless egotists using each other to such unintended, unflattering effect. And can even forgive the lies about Gayle by someone who pretends to be all about honesty and awareness. But what I cannot — and never will — forgive the woman for is foisting that dreadful Dr. Phil on America. He is an amalgam of every bad quality that Oprah exhibits — with none of her good ones. He is a ardent phony, a shameless, self-promoting narcissist who craves rubbing shoulders with simpering celebs almost as much as celebrity itself. And, just like Oprah, he confuses helping others get out of trouble with helping oneself get in the public eye.

I FEEL LIKE HAMMERED SHIT
I got home last night after work (wow, that's weird to say)took a hot bath, started reading Duma Key and fell 
asleep with Annie sprawled across my legs..she was so glad to see me, she actually let me pick her up and hold her..Then Babs woke me up at 9:30am to tell me to look out the window...it had snowed over night, and she wanted me to see it before it melted...so I looked out the window...'yup, that's snow alright'...and went back to bed..Then Anessa called cause Inky was worried about me and wanted to make sure I was ok...She was shaking a mayonnaise jar full of cream making butter...I would have been a lot better if I could have slept uninterrupted till about 11am...I am so stiff and sore...I know I can stand up straight, but it se
ems much easier to just slouch and hobble around the apartment looking like a question mark..

ems much easier to just slouch and hobble around the apartment looking like a question mark..I did good last night....I kept re-ringing shit up though..the eye on the scanner will scan the item twice if I don't move it fast e
nough...and I keep forgetting to lock the computer down when I would leave the register and after a few minutes if you don't lock it, you need a manager to get back in it..When I wasn't busy I restocked and fronted the pharmaceutical section..and when I finished that I started fronting and facing the aisles close to the registers...Saturday if we're not busy I will clean back behind the register area...It looks tacky.

Babs and Shady Lane have both threatened to kick my ass if I don't take it easy and not be gung ho on the job, but even at 64, I only know one speed...rudden rudden...skeech, (that's the sound I make when I corner)....fuckme till I get overtime..

I ARE A YELLOWDOG DEMOCRAT DELEGATE
Some times I really do love being me...I went from just a voter to one of 5 delegates that will go to Waco for the Convention for Mclennan County...There were 34 people f
or Clinton there and 9 for Obama...4 years ago Mary Mangram said there were 5 people at the meeting after the election...I said that's because they were all out getting drunk, cause they knew we were screwed..We voted on 5 dif
ferent measures...on the last one it was to ask the democratic nominee to continue seeking peace between Israel and Palestine blah blah blah...and every one said aye, except me and I said nay...and then looked at them and said 'and how's that been working for us?'...and they all looked at me and said...read it again..so she read it again..and they muttered and shuffled and said read it again, and after reading it about 5 more times and listening to me say"we should just mind our own business and let them fight it out with themselves and if we took that $3
billion dollars that we give Israel every year and put it into a health care policy we'd be better off...the last vote was 4 ayes, and 5 nays..Yes, Virginia...Jackie's a trouble maker...I am going to be one of 5 delegates and Babs doesn't know this yet but she is one of the alternates...ahahahahha..teach her not to show up..We even discussed impeaching Bush and Cheney...I said I would forgo impeachment, if they would just allow me to kick their asses...9 ayes on that one..

THAT DAMN BAND
http://http//profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=110571384
So I get this email from Shady Lane telling me about this great birthday party she went to...and this band played...She told me to google That Damn Band and I did and she said listen to the song Whiskey and Beer, and I did...and I fucking love them...so you have to check them out...they are a local to Austin band and Lane says they are fantastic..they do blues, soul, musicals, etc..just a grand ole band..at the party they had the New Jersey Cowboy who was a sword swallower, they had a lady that was 27 inches tall(Shady said she out hippie handicapped Brewster who usually wins that one with his 'unfoot'...but she won this round..no legs but had feet, she was with the Traveling Freak Show, and then there was Luna Tart who played the uke ala Bette Midler and sang "Don't Sleep With The Clowns."...Damn, I missed it..I'm making an effort to go to it next year..So every one run to myspace and check out That Damn Band...trust me..you'll be glad you did...
The other news..Babs and I took another shot at West today..first we went and voted...then we went to the $ store that I will be working at(I figure it will give him a chance to see us in action and change his mind about hiring me)..he over heard us talking about the gnomes, and I said I thought they were gay, and he walked by shaking his head and then said'Gnomes are asexual)...maybe he does know what he's getting into..Then we went to West Lumber Co. to check out their herb seeds...damn, they're $2 a package, and Babs said they're $.97 at house of satan..but he did say he would order us some plant herbs so will wait and see what he can get..right now it's so wet out can't plant anything anyhow...So we fiddle farted around in there and decided to go to lunch at Leo's the Mexican resturant which I have not been to ...we walked in and I instantly smelled something 'funky'...thought it was rancid grease at first..but then we sat down by this table of 'hispanic workers'....(where is Hispain again?)...and by then it was so strong I was afraid to take in a breath...I don't smoke so I have a very acute(and cute) nose...so I asked Babs:"Is it just me, or does it really stink in here."...she said...'nope, it really stinks in here'...we muttered to each other for a few minutes and I said. 'I"m eventually going to have to take a breath, and I'd rather it not be in here.'...so we got up and I said something abou 'oh, we have to go, but we'll be back.'...yeah, right...I don't mean the kind of smell that a bunch of guys would get from working from morning till lunch time..I mean the kind of funk smell that 6 people get when they haven't taken a bath in 3 weeks...or washed their clothes....it was horrid..I hope this doesn't sound racial becuase that's not my intentions..but stink is stink..no matter where your from...But it all worked out in the long run..we went directly across the street to the Pizza House and Babs had double bacon cheeseburger with fries, and I had double cheeseburger with fries..thinking...it's just double...judas priest..they were the size of a softball..and half a plate of fries...it was so good...won't be able to eat carbs the rest of the day..and brought 1/2 of the cheese burger and fries home as it was so big..but damn...it was worth it...Then we went to the Shabby Rose so I could get a St. Theresa medal for Nancy and Allan..but the regular lady was gone, so I ended up getting a candle that was half price...The Shabby Rose is a religious store, full of saints, crosses, catholic saints on every piece of jewelry you could think of ...but our favorite was the t-shirts with beaded, glittery bejeweled paintings of the Virgin Mary and Guadalupe on them ....I'm sure Jesus would be so proud...I'm trying to think of who I love enough to spend $40 bucks on a bejeweled Virgin Mary Tshirt for...hmm.no one..The sun is shinning, after a day of wind and rain..and damnd if it didn't hail too...supposed to be rainy and cold this week, but back to normal(what IS normal any more?)the next week...I'm going back to vote for delegates this evening...that's my second vote..damn, I thought I actually got to vote for Obama twice...sigh*....So...go check out That Damn Band...you'll thank me...

DAM NEWS NEWS
Ahh, good shit to post about...I love my Dallas Morning News, as it gives me stuff to bitch about...life is good..lets see what can I start with...? Oh, I know...the 19 year old litigation suit against Exxon...
"I guess the lesson you learn is that 'if you're big and powerful enough', you can bring the system to a halt."..Brian O'Neill, lawyer for Alaskans victimized by the Exxon Valdez spill, saying 19 years of of litigation means the Irving-based oil giant has triumphed.(Washington Post)
No shit?...gee, who would have thought THAT could happen?..When you have more fucking money than God, you can get away with anything...
"We have absolutely no momentum going into the first quarter. Things are looking pretty grim for the economy. If we're not in a recession already, we're very close." Josh Shapiro, a leading commercial economist, on the latest economic numbers.(Bloomberg News) No shit?...after nearly 8 years of Bush at the helm, who would have ever thought THAT could happen?
this maybe my favorite of the week, month and possibly year..
"I've had it up to here with John McCain. He's off the list. I'm joining Ann Coulter in supporting Hillary Rodham Clinton," Bill Cunningham, conservative Cincinnati radio talk show host, who introduced the presumptive GOP nominee at a rally. Sen. McCain had disavowed nasty warm-up remarks the host made about Barack Obama. (Cincinnati Enquirer)....Well, if that isn't enough reasons to make you vote for Barack Obama, nothing will be..Any time the Cunt Coulter(she may be one, but I bet she doesn't HAVE one) and the Asshole Cunningham endorse someone for president, that's enough reason to make you go the other way..Jesus may love those two, but the Goddess isn't so benevolent and thinks a good asskicking is a better idea.(Coulter has a personality like a sack full of hemroids)
"Obama simply has the problem that he happens to be black."
Adelfa Callejo, Dallas Hispanic leader and Hillary Clinton supporter, on why many Latinos do not support the African-American candidate. Mrs. Clinton denounced the remarks.(KTVT Channel 11,Dallas, Texas).....Someone explain to me exactly where the fuck Hispain is.....just asking....Yeah, ole Hillary denounced it.....................................just like when she was asked about him being a Muslim...she said:"We have to take his word for it, he says he's a christian, and he keeps denying he's a Muslim."...That was for me the defining moment when I knew there was no way I was voting for her...that fucking bitch...Suppose we have to take her word for it, that she didn't know all along that her husband was letting ugly fat women collect his DNA orally..I'm telling you ladies, if you don't give your husband a blow job..he'll get it else where..they may not fuck an ugly fat girl, but they'll let a toothless old hag blow them...( I think they like the toothless part better than the hag part.)...
Ok, lets see...yup...I've insulted rich oil companies, Forest Gump, conservatives, radio talk show hosts and men who have had a sex operation, hispanics, republicans, ugly fat women and toothless hags...I'm on a fucking roll this morning....like I said...Life is good.
Don't forget to vote..and for all you people voting democrat in Texas....you get to vote twice...yup..that's what a volunteer for Obama said last night...we vote...then go to the meeting they will hold after the booths close and you get to vote again..something to do with the super delegates...She also told me I made her day...I was doing my little rap on Bush, Clinton, and politics in general, she was laughing her ass off) So far I have had about 20 phone calls from Hillary, Chelsea, and this morning Bill called me...I told him unless he wanted a blow job, he had the wrong number...

I'LL PROBABLY GO TO PRISON FOR THIS
This is from my new favorite blog...from the lovely Betty Bower blog
http://bettybowers.com/betty4president/
I laugh so hard I hurt myself....
posted in George W. Bush, John McCain and other crazy people, Democrats, Barack Obama, celebrities, Hillary Clinton, True Chistian Politics |
Being actors — in other words, narcissists — politicians need continuous approval. Like Sally Field, they really, really want you to like them — even after they’ve won. President Bush protests a bit too much about not reading unflattering polls, a declaration as plausible as the ones he makes about what he does read, such as books by Albert Camus.
But our President’s disinterest in his likability is belied in the ardor with which he tries to work a crowd with his feckless, smart-alecky approximation of wit. He may have optimistically thrown his currently tattered legacy to the nimble, revisionist powers of history, but he still wants today to see him as a fun, likable guy. This impulse is why presidents agree each year to participate in that unseemly spectacle called the White House Correspondents Dinner.
It is also what drove Hillary Clinton, someone who polls notoriously low on being a giddy cutup, to appear on Saturday Night Live last night. (Of course, it could have simply been another excuse to procrastinate spending an evening on TurboTax, undergoing the onerous task of hitting the “print” button.) Meanwhile Barrack Obama did what was unthinkable back when John McCain came of age: He danced with a white woman on national TV.
As it turns out, at the end of the day, especially one they’ve filled with sniping, hurtful comments or threats of nuclear annihilation, the people who thirst for the power to blow up the world really just want to be regarded as lighthearted, even silly. And what better venues for pretending to be “nice” and “fun” than the unrelenting SNL and the unrepenting Ellen DeGeneres Show? SNL, now well into its bland dotage (you have to wonder what effect a writers’ strike had on a show that opens the last two weeks with basically the same skit), churns out comfortably tepid political satire, never more biting than the most languid Jay Leno monologue, and provides an ideal venue for a candidate to seem edgy without being cut on any edges. SNL allows a candidate to appear newly “fun” and as cozy and affable as the clawless, politically-neutered Ellen.
This is all done in hopes of putting the popular in popular vote. The concept of a popular vote (though, as it turns out, oddly irrelevant in actually seating a leader) is taken rather literally in this country. Americans vote for the popular personality, not the best candidate. And the touchy-feely American voters, so enamored with the nebulous contrivances of the public persona, are more prone to vote on an instantaneous gut-reaction than the more laborious, tedious process of thinking it through. Emotions beat analysis every election.
This is when our nation’s ADD and superficiality become less amusingly ditzy and more dangerous. You can always trash an American Idol CD, burn your J-Lo for Macy’s tube top, but you’re stuck with a President for four long years. President Bush was elected because voters thought, “I’d like to drink a beer with that guy!” Eight years later, that seems a supremely unsuitable criterion when electing a raging alcoholic. But that’s America: only thinking about the first beer. Never thinking it through to the point someone lingers long past closing and winds up vomiting all over everything he touches.
Ok, I'll get serious and actually do a real post but I'm having so much fun learning how to do new shit on my computer....and thanks to NitWit, I have discovered .......stumbleon or stumbleup...or what ever the name of it is...your right Kev...I'm a retard...

Being actors — in other words, narcissists — politicians need continuous approval. Like Sally Field, they really, really want you to like them — even after they’ve won. President Bush protests a bit too much about not reading unflattering polls, a declaration as plausible as the ones he makes about what he does read, such as books by Albert Camus.

GAINFULLY EMPLOYED
Yes, the unbelievable has happened...I have a job..I start...well, I'm not sure when I start...maybe Monday, maybe Thursday...When Babs and I were doing our 4 fucking hour tour of West business's, singing Janis Joplin and making fun of the help at said business's...I got a job offer..My friend Inky is the assistant manager at the Family Dollar and asked me if I was interested in working..I said, yeah, but it would have to be part time and if I made too much money it would make my rent go up, so probably couldn't work much more than 20 hours a week(don't think I can handle standing on my feet for much longer than that a week either).So I went in today and talked to Thom the manager and filled out the application and took it back..I knew he would already be gone so I gave it to Inky and said most of the places I had worked were out of business except for Hastings and he said, 'hell, it doesn't matter, you already have the job.'...He said Thom said I would probably start Monday(he told me Thursday)...so one of the two..He asked me if I had any days I couldn't work and I said no, except during Football season that I couldn't work when the Cowboys were playing...He laughed, and I said, no, I'm serious..I can't work and miss the Cowboys..I can work while they're on, but I don't think you'd like me at the register with ear phone hooked to a radio and me screaming 'run mother fucker run'... He assured me they could work around the Cowboy's schedule..
As for Babs and my little 4 fucking hour jaunt into town..you can read about it on her blog...All I will say is I think we sang 'Oh Lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz, my friends all drive Porsche's I must make amends...'just fucking beautiful'...When I hit that really high note on Worked hard all my life time ...well, dogs howl...and baby's cry...it's a thing of beauty...Babs has some fetish about weird yard toys...I insisted she get some gnomes, but she has an aversion to them...which is why I went and bought one and I'm going to sneak over to her house tonight and plant it right in the middle of her flowers...It's a little gnome with a shovel...I call him 'Dude'....We went to the used shit store, where we ran into one of the other little ole ladies from the Apts. she sort of reminds me of the absent minded witch on Bewitched...Then we hit the hardware store, where I was pissed to find out that bird seed went up from $3.99 to $4.49 for a 20 lb. bag...jeez Louise...Found some more flower/vegetable seeds...only found basil for herbs...Westites think paprika and pepper are the only spices and the only herb is...well, I don't think they use herbs...We hit both grocery stores and both Dollar stores, went to Jack & Diane's where we got to meet Jack and Diane...Jack is huge and Diane was busy counting the money from the machines...I shot a game of pool and sucked big time..I can't see to play with these damn bi-focals...Babs had BBQ sandwich with fries and banana pudding...I had a cheeseburger and a unsweetened tea...I should have waited till Bold Springs Baptist Church makes their hamburgers as all hamburgers pale in comparison to theirs...We left the house about 12:30 and got back around 4:30..what in the hell we did for 4 hours is beyond me...But we had fun...I got 2 canisters with blue bonnets on them...really kind of girly for me, but as they are Texas flowers, it made it ok...Babs got a tacky ugly frog...and we got to sing songs to the citizens of West....I wish you could have seen us singing 'staying alive staying alive..ah..ah..ah.ah..staying alive'..in her suv...waving our fingers and bobbing our heads...giggling like 9 year olds...It's fun to have a partner in crime..plus with the 2 of us as a team, it makes the cops think twice before hauling our asses off to jail..Life is good...fuckme till I sing bass...

I have a lot of wonderful people praying for me and I know in my heart it's working.This is my exercise for this morning to use my arms to write you an e-mail. Not even my kids got that so lady you are very special to me. You are my appointed Guarding Angel.

REMEMBER THE ALAMO
Today is the 172nd anniversary of the day in 1836 when Mexican troops besieged the Alamo in San Antonio during the Texas Revolution. The siege ended after 13 days with the fall of the Alamo. San Antonio was then called San Antonio de Bexar,(pronounced Bear).The battle was between the Republic of Mexico and the rebel Texians forces, including both Angelos(ethnic Americans) and Tejanos(ethnic Mexicans in Texas).This was a fight for the Independence of Texas from Mexico, called the Texas Revolution.The 13-day siege started Tuesday Feb.23,1836, and ended on March 6th 1836, with the capture of the mission and the death of nearly all the Texians and Tejanos defenders, except for a few slaves, women and children.The 13 days allowed General Sam Houston enough time to gather troops and supplies for the later success at the Battle of San Jacinto.
Santa Anna's army consisted of 6,000 in the siege and 1,200 in the actual assault. The Alamo defenders were about 180-250 and 21 guns against the Mexican's army of 20 guns. All of the defenders lost their lives at the Alamo, but the wounded almost 600 and killed nearly 300.
On April 21st, 1836 General Sam Houston took on Santa Anna's army and defeated them in 18 minutes, with rallying cries of:"Remember the Alamo, and remember Goliad."...Santa Anna was captured the day after the battle, dressed as a woman. He signed the peace treaties and left the area. Leaving behind The Republic of Texas.
I dont' know what sort of history your kids are taugh about the history of their state while they're in school..but the kids in Texas have Texas history at least twice during their elementary years..Every year from Feb.23rd to March 6th they do plays, do readings, reports and celebrate in as many ways as possible the history of our once proud Nation that became a state on December 29th, 1846.
(which may be one of many reasons why we think we're a little superior....we were a country..a nation...not just a territory...before we became a state.)
The Texas Declaration of Independence
The Unanimous Declaration of Independence made by the Delegates of the People of Texas in General Conventi
on at the town of Washington on the 2nd day of March 1836.
When a government has ceased to protect the lives, liberty and property of the people, from whom its legitimate powers are derived, and for the advancement of whose happiness it was instituted, and so far from being a guarantee for the enjoyment of those inestimable and inalienable rights, becomes an instrument in the hands of evil rulers for their oppression.
When the Federal Republican Constitution of their country, which they have sworn to support, no longer has a substantial existence, and the whole nature of their government has been forcibly changed, without their consent, from a restricted federative republic, composed of sovereign states, to a consolidated central military despotism, in which every interest is disregarded but that of the army and the priesthood, both the eternal enemies of civil liberty, the everready minions of power, and the usual instruments of tyrants.
When, long after the spirit of the constitution has departed, moderation is at length so far lost by those in power, that even the semblance of freedom is removed, and the forms themselves of the constitution discontinued, and so far from their petitions and remonstrances being regarded, the agents who bear them are thrown into dungeons, and mercenary armies sent forth to force a new government upon them at the point of the bayonet.
When, in consequence of such acts of malfeasance and abdication on the part of the government, anarchy prevails, and civil society is dissolved into its original elements. In such a crisis, the first law of nature, the right of self-preservation, the inherent and inalienable rights of the people to appeal to first principles, and take their political affairs into their own hands in extreme cases, enjoins it as a right towards themselves, and a sacred obligation to their posterity, to abolish such government, and create another in its stead, calculated to rescue them from impending dangers, and to secure their future welfare and happiness.
Nations, as well as individuals, are amenable for their acts to the public opinion of mankind. A statement of a part of our grievances is therefore submitted to an impartial world, in justification of the hazardous but unavoidable step now taken, of severing our political connection with the Mexican people, and assuming an independent attitude among the nations of the earth.
The Mexican government, by its colonization laws, invited and induced the Anglo-American population of Texas to colonize its wilderness under the pledged faith of a written constitution, that they should continue to enjoy that constitutional liberty and republican government to which they had been habituated in the land of their birth, the United States of America.
In this expectation they have been cruelly disappointed, inasmuch as the Mexican nation has acquiesced in the late changes made in the government by General Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, who having overturned the constitution of his country, now offers us the cruel alternative, either to abandon our homes, acquired by so many privations, or submit to the most intolerable of all tyranny, the combined despotism of the sword and the priesthood.
It has sacrificed our welfare to the state of Coahuila, by which our interests have been continually depressed through a jealous and partial course of legislation, carried on at a far distant seat of government, by a hostile majority, in an unknown tongue, and this too, notwithstanding we have petitioned in the humblest terms for the establishment of a separate state government, and have, in accordance with the provisions of the national constitution, presented to the general Congress a republican constitution, which was, without just cause, contemptuously rejected.
It incarcerated in a dungeon, for a long time, one of our citizens, for no other cause but a zealous endeavor to procure the acceptance of our constitution, and the establishment of a state government.
It has failed and refused to secure, on a firm basis, the right of trial by jury, that palladium of civil liberty, and only safe guarantee for the life, liberty, and property of the citizen.
It has failed to establish any public system of education, although possessed of almost boundless resources, (the public domain,) and although it is an axiom in political science, that unless a people are educated and enlightened, it is idle to expect the continuance of civil liberty, or the capacity for self government.
It has suffered the military commandants, stationed among us, to exercise arbitrary acts of oppression and tyrrany, thus trampling upon the most sacred rights of the citizens, and rendering the military superior to the civil power.
It has dissolved, by force of arms, the state Congress of Coahuila and Texas, and obliged our representatives to fly for their lives from the seat of government, thus depriving us of the fundamental political right of representation.
It has demanded the surrender of a number of our citizens, and ordered military detachments to seize and carry them into the Interior for trial, in contempt of the civil authorities, and in defiance of the laws and the constitution.
It has made piratical attacks upon our commerce, by commissioning foreign desperadoes, and authorizing them to seize our vessels, and convey the property of our citizens to far distant ports for confiscation.
It denies us the right of worshipping the Almighty according to the dictates of our own conscience, by the support of a national religion, calculated to promote the temporal interest of its human functionaries, rather than the glory of the true and living God.
It has demanded us to deliver up our arms, which are essential to our defence, the rightful property of freemen, and formidable only to tyrannical governments.
It has invaded our country both by sea and by land, with intent to lay waste our territory, and drive us from our homes; and has now a large mercenary army advancing, to carry on against us a war of extermination.
It has, through its emissaries, incited the merciless savage, with the tomahawk and scalping knife, to massacre the inhabitants of our defenseless frontiers.
It hath been, during the whole time of our connection with it, the contemptible sport and victim of successive military revolutions, and hath continually exhibited every characteristic of a weak, corrupt, and tyrranical government.
These, and other grievances, were patiently borne by the people of Texas, untill they reached that point at which forbearance ceases to be a virtue. We then took up arms in defence of the national constitution. We appealed to our Mexican brethren for assistance. Our appeal has been made in vain. Though months have elapsed, no sympathetic response has yet been heard from the Interior. We are, therefore, forced to the melancholy conclusion, that the Mexican people have acquiesced in the destruction of their liberty, and the substitution therfor of a military government; that they are unfit to be free, and incapable of self government.
The necessity of self-preservation, therefore, now decrees our eternal political separation.
We, therefore, the delegates with plenary powers of the people of Texas, in solemn convention assembled, appealing to a candid world for the necessities of our condition, do hereby resolve and declare, that our political connection with the Mexican nation has forever ended, and that the people of Texas do now constitute a free, Sovereign, and independent republic, and are fully invested with all the rights and attributes which properly belong to independent nations; and, conscious of the rectitude of our intentions, we fearlessly and confidently commit the issue to the decision of the Supreme arbiter of the destinies of nations.

THE LUNAR ECLIPSE
For a week Babs and I have been talking about going outside to see the lunar eclipse...Counting down the days..finally the big day comes and it's so cloudy out, you can't see a star more less the moon getting lunared..So we have pretty much decided that we weren't going to see much ...then Babs calls and said she saw a sliver of the moon right before the cloud covered it again..What the fuck...I'll go and see what I can see....Directly outside my apt. is the parking lot and to the right is the townhouse apts with a nice size field behind it..since Claudette's apt light is shining right in my eye, I decide to meander over to the field out of the light and try and find the moon...As most of you know I have a damaged nerve in my back which causes me to have slow motor skills in my right leg most of the time..When my brain tells my right leg to take a step, this is what it hears sometimes."briaceksleha;zzwllll999kllmwatchit mother fucker she's going down"...followed by "huh?"Followed by "ohhhhhhh fuck."...
I didn't actually fall down this time, but I'm sure that any one looking out their window would swear that Jackie is back on the sauce, as I know I looked like I was drunk out there, staggering around, looking up at the sky..Turning in circles with my hand up to block the damn light from Claudette's..
"What do you think she's doing out there?..." "Hell, I don't know...but I'm not going out there to find out. Remember the last time she was drunk?" "Please, I don't want to talk about it."..."Should have known not to talk smack about the Cowboys. You still have the scar from that?" "I SAID I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT."
I never did see the damn moon...But my reputation is still intact.

7 words you can't say on tv
These are the 7 Words you can't say on regular television until Jane Fonda said 'cunt' on the Today Show. When asked about her 
reaction to being asked to do the play The Vagina Monologue, she said "I was asked about doing a play about cunts and I said I don't think so."...Since this was in New York it went right by but they had the 10 second delay for the west coast..
When I heard about it I almost hurt myself from laughing so hard...Cause unless your an old watcher of the late Johnny Carson's Tonight Show you"ll know that when she was on with Johnny(her first time I think)she said she wanted to know if a story she had heard was true, and Carson said what was it..and she said "I heard that Zsa Zsa Gabor was on the show and she brought her cat with her and she asked you if you wanted to pet her pussy, and you said I can't t
he damn cat's in the way."....much laughing..and Carson said no it wasn't true..but damn....I wish it had been...
Being a child of the military, dirty words were an every day occurrence for me..I hung around the parade ground, mess hall, motor pools from the time I was 4 years o
ld...I learned all the good ones...and the true story is, I was 17 before I found out that cocksucer wasn't another word for civilian, and those funny little hats were called overseas caps and not cunt caps. I didn't know that those words weren't to be spoken in polite company until I got smacked and sent to my room for referring to the airplanes flying over head as a bunch of noisy motherfuckers...Sonsabitches was my preferred expression.....everything was you sonsabitch..I supposed the gi's got an extra thrill out of teaching a 6 year old the names of the tools as fucking wrench, fucking screwdriver, fucking socket...Not to say that I didn't learn anything from the WAF's...which is where I heard the expression, "I want to hear you're pussy's suck air."..But my favorites where the cadences the soldiers called out when they marched..."I know a girl who lives on a hill, she won't do it but her sister will.."..."I know a girl from New Orleans, she's got a mustache in her jeans."....I don't know but I've been told, Eskimo pussy is mighty cold."....
Well, like normal...I have gotten way off the track of the purpose of this post...Jane Fonda said cunt on national TV at 8am...Every one had a stroke..The thing I don't understand is....why it's ok to show people being shot, bombed and killed every day on the evening news, but it's not ok to say cunt...the loveliest part of a woman...
fuckme till I holler tits....

PAGE 123 MEME
I swiped this from my new pal Buzzard Billy, who if we were going to be politically correct would be Buzzard Nanny...but I digress..
Your supposed to reach out and grab the nearest book to you and turn to page 123..go to the 5th sentence and then copy out the next three sentences...The first book I grabbed was a Portuguese Dictionary, and didn't think that would work, so then I grabbed the next nearest book and it's A Light In the Attic by Shel Silverstein and it's a kids book and doesn't have 123 pages..so then I grabbed this book:PIECE OF MY HEART -JANIS JOPLIN.
Here
are the 3 sentences after the first 5 sentences.
are the 3 sentences after the first 5 sentences."With her mesmerizing intensity she wielded together all the threads, scales and fragments of our collective person, as if she were piecing Humpy Dumpty back together again.
Through music's anarchic power to both dissociate and , ultimately, to integrate, Janis let us know that only all of us can see it. Too vast to guess by parts: too enclosed within us to recognize."
Goddess bless Janis...........

I'LL TAKE BULLSHIT FOR $200, JACKIE
This is one of those ain't about nothing but just a little about a bunch of stuff...
First of all....Forest Gump has come out for John McCain...If that doesn't scare the shit out of you then nothing will..McCain as president..will be 4 more years of the same ole shit..First of all I think John McCain is still suffering from PTS, from Vietnam..Some times when you see him on TV he has that dopey eyed look from too much medication.. and then I watched him on some news show and I've never seen anyone blink so many times in 3 minutes in my entire life. I'm not sure if he was trying to keep from passi
ng out or it's some sort of nervous tic.
Either way it was spooky..Plus anyone that would allow some one like Forest Gump and his crew make up so many lies about you and then be seen kissing his ass and hugging him...well, he gets no respect from me..I'
m sorry he was held captive by Charlie, but not sorry enough to let him get a pass for the president of the united state's. Who the fuck am I kidding, I wouldn't vote for him anyhow..he's a fucking republican..
Now for something important..NBC has extended Life for another season...If you haven't seen this TV show, you should...First of all it's a great show with great story line, great writing, but more
important?...Damien Lewis is hot.
It doesn't hurt that he resembles Steve McQueen either..I think the first time I remember seeing him in anything was Band of Brothers, which was most excellent, and he was just terrific in it...Now he's on NBC in his very own little TV show which co-stars Adam Arkin another one of my personal favorites..He plays a cop who got framed for a crime, did his 10 years where he became a Buddhist, met Adam and then they proved he was not guilty and the city of L.A. had to pay him like $10 million bucks...But he's back on the force, being a cop, and looking for who done him wrong...Great show.
More exciting news?...I just finished the Spellma
n Files by Lisa Lutz and it was hysterical...I really loved this book...It's not anything like the Name of the Wind, but it's still a great book...I think this is her first book but she had written and rewritten a screenplay called Plan B, a mob film which I haven't seen. But she swore off screenplays and wrote this funny funny book, with a list of the weirdest family since my family reunion..They are all private investigators and they do back ground checks on the daughters boyfriends, are constantly fixing her up with lawyers and she has a list of boyfriends listed as X-boyfriend #1, #2, etc..There is even a small kid detective who between scarfing down sugared cereals and beef jerky follows everyone around the city of San Francisco..So yes, this is another book I'm pushing..If you want a good laugh...and lots of them..this is the book for you..
It's raining...now I don't have to go do laundry..I'm sure the neighbors won't mind that I'm still wearing the old cowboys t-shirt..it's actually starting to smell like one of the players wore it, while being gang tackled by the Green Bay Packers...There are a lot of pluses living alone..Lucky for me..Annie doesn't care what I smell like as long as I keep her fed and watered..fuckme til I make the team.

.......I'M A SCHMUCK.......
I have been doing a little deducting..I have had allergies for fucking ever...sneezing, runny nose, and more sneezing..Every time a cedar tree has sex I sneeze..I'm from the old school of 'if one's good then 2 will be terrific.'...So the destruction's on my allergy (over the counter) meds say 1 every 4 hours..So schmuck that I am...I take 2 every 4 hours...I was so jittery from it that I couldn't sleep at night and so I changed the brand and went back to taking them the way 
they are supposed to be taken..Guess what?...The rapid heart beat stopped..yup...it's not the diabetes medicine...it's the 'too many allergy pills'...I'm not sure that's what the problem is..but every since I stopped taking them 2 at a time, the rapid heart beat has gone away..if it continues like this..I will not call Dr. E. but if it starts up again, will call him..But right now I think it's a case of Dr. Jackie over dosing her allergy medicine...yup I'm a schmuck.

se so severe that I will welcome some gnat bites..
like these....only a lot more of them and a lot bigger..
se so severe that I will welcome some gnat bites..On the reading agenda I finished the book by Erica Spindler, Last Known Victim and it was really a good mystery...Smug schmuck that I am..I had it figured out by the time I was half way through..There were a lot of red herrings, but I'm too good of a sleuth and figured it out..Now I'm reading the Spellman Files by Lisa Lutz and it's pretty damn funny...Which is good, as I'm due for some funny...I started to read the God of All Animals but it started right off with the drowning of a kid, and thought 'I don't think so'...and switched to the Spellman Files...Actually all I'm doing is biding my time until I get the new STephen King novel.We don't have it at the library yet and I'm chomping at the bit.
.I have to go to the library today and down load all the information on Obama, Clinton, Hucklebee and McCaine for the old farts at the West Rest Haven..I am going there the 18th and give them all the scoop on what issues the candidates are for and against..If you want any information about the candidates you can get it from Glassbooth.net..or is it Glassbooth.com...or org..fuck I can't remember..oh kay...I checked..it's .org..There is a test you can take that will match you up with the candidate that is the closest to you on the issues..Pretty cool..

Both the girls and boys teams are going to district playoffs...We're so proud...
I have to go do laundry....no really I mean it..I HAVE TO DO LAUNDRY.. I am wearing clothes that I only wear when every thing else I own is in the hamper...The t-shirt is from when the Cowboys won their first Super Bowl, like 93 or something..Plus a gnat just flew up my nose and Goddess knows what kind of damage it can do in there...fuckme till I sneeze..

IF IT'S NOT ONE THING...IT'S ANOTHER
The good news is, I received the nicest thank you email from the author of The Name of The Wind, Patrick Rothfuss. I sent him an email telling him how much I like his book and told him I did a review of it on my blog and he emailed back and said it made him laugh out loud and he appreciated it and wanted to know if he could link it to his website as he thought other people would enjoy reading it...How cool is that?...I have always written to authors when I really like their work..I have received letters, notes from John Case, Dean Koontz, H. Allan Smith, John Irving,Janet Evanovitch, Sara Pretskey, James Lee Burke and a lot of others..I am in the process of reading Last Known Victim and it's pretty good..While reading it I went to library and checked out Steve Martin's Born Standing Up...I really did enjoy it..It's a small book but only covers his stand-up years, and his relationship with his parents and sister..It makes you sort of understand him a little better..It's worth reading if you are interested in Bio's..
Now the damnit news..I have been having rapid heart beats from the diabetes medicine I have been taking. Then the other day the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute canceled their trials that were using diabetic medicine that lowered blood sugar instead of controlling it...Which is what I'm taking..So going to go see Dr. E. and see if I should stop taking it and switch again...It happens within 3 hours of taking it..can damn near set a clock by it...I was going to go Monday, but I just hate going to him and having to start this crap all over again..fuckity fuck fuck fuck...Pisses me off...Plus I have lost another 4 lbs...little by little..slowly but surely..
It's beautiful in West, by Goddess, Texas today...We had thunderstorms and about an inch of rain the other night and morning..then it was kind of gray and in 50's...now the sun is all bright and shiny..It's like living in a new place every day..
I will let you know what Dr. E. says...
fuckme till my bloodsugar drops..
