Why I Want to Move

Jul 26, 2009 Posted Under: opinion, Personal

As much as I hate to get myself in debt buying another home, there are some things that just get on my nerves about living here.  The photos below are of my next door neighbor’s backyard.  This is just one of the many examples of what life is like over here.  This house is just [...]

REFORM is dirty word

Jul 26, 2009 Posted Under: bias, journalism, opinion, politics

I think most people in this country are very suspicious of politicians in general because of theindiscretions of those in the past.  This is tragic because as much as we do not trust them, we need them.  There is one thing that seems to be common among politicians that I have noticed is the way [...]

Jul 26, 2009 Posted Under: Del City, radio

You may remember last week I posted about a storm that came through and caused some damage around my dad’s house along with mine.  This storm caused a lot of hail damage to my car, bent the repeater antenna on my tower and also on my dad’s tower.  I just did not have the time, [...]

Jul 26, 2009 Posted Under: Events, family, God, Personal

This has been a very eventful week for my family and extended family in a “not so good” way.  I cannot divulge these issues on here because some of it is still going on and I would not want to embarrass any of them.  These family members could really use your prayers if you could [...]

The media is really salivating today over the news story that says driving and texting is as dangerous as drinking and driving.  Gasp Gasp Gasp!  What a breaking news story!  There has always been those cell phone Nazis that hate cell phones and anyone that uses them.  They spend a disproportionate amount of time covering [...]

My Problem with “Going Green”

Jul 20, 2009 Posted Under: bias, news, politics

I think we all have a responsibility to be good stewards of the resources around us and that is nothing new. It has always been irresponsible to just waste things and pour pollutants out into the environment so I have no problem with that.  Where I have a problem with this “going green” movement is [...]

Sleepless in OKC

Jul 20, 2009 Posted Under: God, Personal, sleep

As I wait for the alarm to come on to wake me up, I figure I will post a few comments about not being able to sleep.  I have had insomnia for a number of years so this is not new.  What is new is getting to sleep and then waking up later like I [...]

Giving up on Gmail

Jul 19, 2009 Posted Under: email, Google, Internet, opinion, Personal

A while back I finally succumbed to the peer pressure and started using Gmail as my email interface.  I allowed everyone to convince me of the virtues of dealing with Google since they are only second to Barack Obama, and Apple in their deity (sarcasm).  One of the reasons I allowed people to convince me [...]

Conflicted on Storm

Jul 18, 2009 Posted Under: opinion, weather

I have made it clear over time of my love for storms.  Maybe I am weird but I just find the storms enjoyable.  On Thursday July 16, 2009 we had a surprise storm that I found to be a dream come true.  This storm was sudden and small in size thought it caused some damage [...]

Summer in Oklahoma City

Jul 12, 2009 Posted Under: Events, Oklahoma City, weather

  I guess it is that time again.  The photo above shows the temperature as 109 degrees while the National Weather Service only listed the high as 105.  Oklahoma gets a little of both cold and hot.  This is fairly common temperatures to get in summer though it only happens about two weeks each year.  [...]
