Liberals Cannot Be Trusted

Mar 04, 2011 Posted Under: Air Force, conservative, Midwest City, Oklahoma

You know, I have always thought that liberalism was wrong but just thought it was a difference of opinion.  They tend to think the answer to problems is for government to give money to fix social issues.  Unfortunately the government has no money except what they steal from the people.  It may seem compassionate to [...]

I just wanted to take this time to give an update on what we have been up to over the last week or so.  We have finally settled into our new apartment and put everything away. I still find myself turning down streets toward the other house and have to catch myself.  It is hard [...]

Happy Spring

Mar 20, 2009 Posted Under: Air Force, college, God, Personal, Work

Sunrise in OKC

It is hard to find anything more pleasing than a nice morning sunrise when you do not have to go to work.  The beauty of my situation this morning is that it is the end of the year and I have some use or lose vacation time that I have to burn so I took [...]

Restrictions at Work

As many of you may know I have posted about how the government does everything the hard way.  Everything we do is usually impacted by a new rule or policy that makes our jobs harder.  Over the last two days at work we have received this message or some rendition of it on our computers.  [...]

If you are familiar with Oklahoma summers you may have heard the peculiar loud clicking sounds coming from the trees.  This cicada is the culprit and when you hear them you know that it is not just summer but the hottest part of the summer.   For some reason, the locals call them locust but they are really [...]

Work is More Satisfying

Jun 27, 2008 Posted Under: Air Force, opinion, Work

Not too long ago I spoke that I moved to a new job at work and how excited I was about this move. Shortly after that I seemed to be dissatisfied with the fact that I was their as a trainee and no one would show me anything. I do not like to have the [...]
