The World does not owe YOU a Living!

Emergency Weather Bulletin:

This text is from a county emergency manager out in the western part of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan after a severe snow storm ……

The Mining Journal, Marquette , MI

WEATHER BULLETIN

Up here in the Northern part of Michigan we just recovered from a Historic event — may I even say a “Weather Event” of “Biblical Proportions” — with a historic blizzard of up to 44″ inches of snow and winds to 90 MPH that broke trees in half, knocked down utility poles, stranded hundreds of motorists in lethal snow banks, closed ALL roads, isolated scores of communities and cut power to 10s of thousands.

FYI:

  • Obama did not come.
  • FEMA did nothing.
  • No one howled for the government.
  • No one blamed the government.
  • No one even uttered an expletive on TV.
  • Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton did not visit.
  • Our Mayors did not blame Obama or anyone else.
  • Our Governor did not blame Obama or anyone else either.
  • CNN, ABC, CBS, or NBC did not visit – or even report on this category 5 snow storm.
  • Nobody demanded $2,000 debit cards.
  • No one asked for a FEMA Trailer House.
  • No one looted.
  • Nobody – I mean Nobody demanded the government do something.
  • Nobody expected the government to do anything either.
  • No Larry King, No Oprah, No Chris Mathews and No Geraldo Rivera.
  • No Shaun Penn, No Barbara Streisand,
  • No Brad Pitts, No Hollywood types to be found.

 

  1. Nope, we just melted the snow for water.
  2. Sent out caravans of SUV’s to pluck people out of snow engulfed cars.
  3. The truck drivers pulled people out of snow banks and didn’t ask for a penny.
  4. Local restaurants made food, and the police and fire departments delivered it to the snow bound families…
  5. Families took in the stranded people – total strangers.
  6. We fired up wood stoves, broke out coal oil lanterns or Coleman lanterns.
  7. We put on an extra layers of clothes because up here it is “Work or Die”.
  8. We did not wait for some affirmative action government to get us out of a mess created by being immobilized by a welfare program that trades votes for ’sittin at home’ checks.

Even though a Category 5 blizzard of this scale is not usual, we know it can happen and how to deal with it ourselves.

I hope this gets passed on.

Maybe …… 

SOME people will get the message …… 

The world does Not owe you a living..

Right On!!!

Posted by admin on Jan 8, 2010 in Thoughts

I love this and it is soooooooooooooo Trueeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

Right on, Andy Rooney! 

Andy Rooney said on ‘60 Minutes’ a few weeks back: 

I don’t think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers. The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black America. Try to have things like the United Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America and see what happens…Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door! 

Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game. 

I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, which is why there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE? 

I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion

I have the right ‘NOT’ to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off. 

When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling; it is the Law of Probability. 

I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American/Canadian/British citizen, you should have to speak English! 

My father and grandfather didn’t die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours

I think the police should have every right to shoot or arrest you if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can’t understand the word ‘freeze’ or ’stop’ in English, see the above lines. 

I don’t think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special National Assistance, loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, corner store, or any other business. 

We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document and open to their interpretations. 

I don’t hate the rich I don’t pity the poor 

I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn’t stop you from watching them. 

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If this ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that’s better, and put your name on the building. 

It doesn’t take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid and smack their little behinds when necessary, and say ‘NO!’ 

I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don’t pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I don’t want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries! 

I am sick of ‘Political Correctness.’ I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa so how can they be ‘African-Americans/Canadian/British’?   Besides, Africa is a continent.. I don’t go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else. 

And if you don’t like my point of view…tough!

Illinois Prisons

Posted by admin on Jan 5, 2010 in Illinois

It was not that long ago that Illinois was complaining about over-crowded prisons (Google it and you will see this is true).  How come if Illinois has over-crowded prisons we have an almost empty Thomson prison that we are willing to sell to the Federal Government.  Just does not make sense!!

Hello world!

Posted by admin on Dec 9, 2009 in Welcome

Welcome to my blog.  Didn’t have too much success with the forum, so since I probably have the most to say, I will use this blog to get out my comments, feelings and ideas.  I was truly disappointed that the people of Bensenville did not embrace the forum.  This was perfect medium to convey your message to the establishment.  Oh well, you lose!!!  At least I can still get my message out.
