WHERE IS THE COOL WEATHER?

This has been the hottest summer I can remember in a long time. The temperatures in the 90's for I don't know how long. Thursday the weatherman says 100?
Going to Texas tomorrow looking for relief but I am sure that I won't get it. Talked to my daughter this morning and she says temps in the 100's. WHAT IS A MAN TO DO?
I have no choice but to go to the water park in Killeen, Texas where my daughter lives and sit in the refreshing water, pretend I'm sleeping and check out the beautiful ladies as they walk by. Surely they can't arrest a 70 year old man from enjoying life and Gods beauty.
Looking forward to a nice trip taking my two grand kids back to their mother.

MOVING CLOSER.

With my son-in-law being in the service one never knows where he will be stationed. For now it is Ft. Hood. He returned there in December from his second tour in Iraq. He was told that next year at this time he would be in Afghanistan. That's not going to happen. He is being sent to Georgia to be an instructor at Ft. Benning.
In miles that is about 400 miles closer to me so I will be able to drive it in one day instead of a day and a half to Texas.
I was stationed there for two years and it will be interesting to see how it changed since I was there in 1964.
It will be nice to have them closer.

I NEED A HUSBAND!!!!!!!!!

Not me, I'm a guy. This statement was made by a 57 year old woman in Alliance, Ohio. This plea was called into the 911 number five times. The dispatcher could not believe what she was hearing. After the fifth time, police were dispatched to the woman's home and she was arrested for improper use of the 911 system. She spent three days in jail.
It would have been easier to call E-Harmony I guess.
Ladies and men too, think before you call seeking a companion.

THE KIDS

This week concluded the school year for many. Mainly my grandchildren in Texas.
Aidden graduated and went on to first grade. How proud he was. He was dressed up in his finest. A suit white shirt and tie. Mom was there to see this milestone as well as Spencer. They let him out of class to see his brother graduate.
Yesterday was awards day for Spencer which was attended by his step-dad Jeremy. Spencer received an award for the best in his Science class and for the most improved for the semester. Way to go Spencer. I'm proud of you.
Today is Angelica's day. She is participating in a graduation ceremony going from fifth to sixth grade. Another stepping stone in life. Mom tells me she too was decked out in her finest. Fancy hair style and a pretty dress. Mom even went as far as letting her wear a little make-up. Mom couldn't make it because of work but her step-dad Jeremy will be there to see this happen.
I don't know how many folks realize how important it is to attend these ceremonies to show support for their children. It means a lot. It's too bad we all can't be there but I know life must continue with work and other obligations. Even if you can't be there make them know that they are special when you do see them.

IT'S BACK

Do you ever wait and wait for your favorite program to return. I did and it finally did return last night, that being AMERICA'S GOT TALENT. It amazes me that there are so many talented people out there that we never hear about. Some even better that the ones that are in the headlines now. Keep your American Idol, Biggest Loser, Bachlorette and a few other programs that just don't have any meaning and do not supply entertainment to the tv viewer. I'm losing weight. Do I get a tv show. Anybody can do that in the privacy of their own home.
America's Got Talent has it all. Singers, dancer and oddities from all over the country. We need more shows like that.
I think Howie Mandel is a great addition to the show.

IT'S OVER

Yes folks it's over. A program I never thought that I would get so interested in. That being Dancing With The Stars.
My choice to win was Evin and Anna, they came in second, but that's OK they were still good.
Kate was back and guess what? SHE STILL CAN'T DANCE. She looks like a stick in her movements.
This is the first season I really watched it. Was it because of the beautiful girls and the costumes and I'll tell you one thing I will definitely watch it next season. GOOD SHOW.

THEY CAN'T PRAY!!!!!!

Not long ago I wrote that a 18 year old high school student, Eric Workman, who attends Greenwood High School somewhere in Central Indiana and is the valedictorian of the class filed suit against the school because the graduating class voted to say a prayer at the ceremony. He said this was wrong because it violated his First Amendment Rights.
The ACLU filed a lawsuit for this jerk. A judge ruled late Friday that the prayer could not be said at the graduation.
U. S. District Judge Sarah Evans Barker issued a preliminary injunction against the school saying the process in which students voted to have the prayer violated the First Amendment's establishment clause.
First of all lets remember the names of Eric Workman and Judge Sarah Evans Barker. Should you ever see their names on any ballot DO NO VOTE FOR THEM.
Further more what if the students took it upon themselves to start the prayer just as Eric was called to give his valedictorian speech. They can't arrest the whole class and this would leave Eric standing at the podium with nothing to say until the prayer was finished.
This has got to stop somewhere. Things are getting rediculous.
