I love my Country but I hate the Government

The constitution says "We the people" not "I the king and my stupid minions" my representative and government are not representing what we want to see happen, ITS TIME TO RECALL THE WHOLE DAMN GOVERNMENT AND START OVER, or they can have the same healthcare and 401K's we do.I pledge not to vote for any candidates that supported socialized healthcare.

I promise to vote against any one supporting the health care plan!

I like what I see in my daughter now, theres a confidence that wasnt there. I no longer get, yeps and nopes or huhs? for answers. Yeah she still disappears into her computer, but at least she'll come outa her room to do it.. She's ready to do her A school, and more....

late at night

0030 in the morn, wife and son are asleep, the only sounds are house sounds and the dog snoring.... By now Id usually have hollered at my daughter for not shuttin down the computer, she'd angrily stomp down stairs and plugged in the computer to recharge overnight, we'd have a conversation on some book or stupid cartoon one or both of us would seen, comic book conventions coming up....Its wasnt a healthy pattern, conversations of grades school and life in general devolved in to donny brooks....… Continue

4 days in and still doing P days...

sad that we cant write Ang yet..... Hopefully she hasnt done too many push ups by now.. She has her dads view on life convince them to follow you or beat them senseless and drag them along... but unlike the Marines who have Im told great disipline tactics 50 - 100 push ups at a time, the Navy uses 4 or 5 pushups they make you count off and may just stop you in mid count to .walk over to talk to someone else for 4 or 5 minutes in mid pushup.... I hear it cleans the wax from your ears really… Continue

Day before swearing in...

Sitting in the parking lot waiting for the recruites to get there wasnt so bad.... Walking her up to the recruiter to turn her over was bad, daughter laughed at me, recruiters asked if they were really that ugly.... I wanted my kids life to be easier not harder.... Sitting at my desk at work andI cant get shit done..... Calm seas, good hunting dad
