Are You Serious?

Here are two of many reasons why I don't like New York:

First, the Yankees. Enough said.

Second, this:




The Empire State Building in red to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Communist takeover of China......

WTF?

These are the Owners:

Empire State Building Associates, a general partnership of 2500 investors headed by Peter L. Malkin, Esq. and Mrs. Harry B. Helmsley, holds the master lease and controls the building until 2076.

Evolution of a Patio

We increased the usable space at Newton St. in the form of a patio this weekend. Over the past couple of weeks, I have been researching the cost of installing a patio in the back yard. During this time I swayed from doing it myself to having it installed. After doing a detailed cost benefit analysis it was decided that we would have the patio installed. One of the deciding factors in this determination of this route is the fact that I don not have any masonry skills, and we would like a patio that will last us a long time. We also found a company that would install the patio at a flat rate that was equal to some of the material costs that I found. So we had the guys at Camp Stone Co. supply the rock and install the patio. After all is said and done, we are very happy with the final product.

The before.....

During Construction.....

The Final Product....

Smiles all around in the little's home tonight.

The guys from Camp Stone Co. did a great job. They are good people, they have great quality stone, and put together a quality patio. I am very happy with our decision, and look forward to many moons on the new slab.

Woooooooooooooooo!

Loveland fired up the guns today! Snow making is on like donkey kong!

Dont Rock The Boat?

"There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov."

I quoted this directly from the White House website. Now there are a lot of people actually reading the proposed bills being drafted by the House, and Senate, and I have heard a number of intelligent people on both sides of the political isle say that this proposed plan will eliminate private competition. Why wouldn't the White House want you to know that???..... And when you talk about it, they want to know. So please feel free to turn my blog into the "flag czar" I always wanted to be on a list! That's bullshit in my humble opinion.

Next they are going to ask us to turn in overweight people to fat@whitehouse.gov

This is absolutely rediculous, so,

email complaints to: flag@whitehouse.gov

(I hope they have a good spam filter)

Off Season Stinks!

Once it starts snowing, I will quit with the political posts, but until then, its on like Donkey Kong!

Hope for an early start to the ski season.......

Big Brother didnt like that one.....

UPDATED:

Ha, the peeps at the White House didn't like seeing their boy's feet held to the fire.

Regardless of the time frame, Obama wants to eliminate private health care, and that's just not right. I want to have a choice in the matter.

Here is the Govies response to the vid.... HA! Squirm Baby Squirm!

Please Explain.....

Now, what makes you think that a government which cannot successfully run a "cash for clunkers" program can run a successful health care program? On top of that, the government wants to eliminate the competition.......why?

This just doesn't seem right.

Here is the link, see for your self....

What goes around comes around....

Now I know all my left leaning friends probably do not appreciate the fact that someone has defaced the prez in such a manner, however I must remind them that Vanity Fair was the first to publish the joker satire.

Now, both these guys are clowns, but my question is, who is the better joker?

Bush the Joker?

http://www.vanityfair.com/online/politics/2008/07/bush-as-joker.html

Obama the Joker?

You decide.....

Not Making Friends

Harsh, even for a political satire!

A Doper's A Doper, so BE GONE!

Ya Big Papi that means you! Your on my team and makes it sting even more...
I dont care who you are or who you play for, if you cheat you should be banned from the sport. So, GET OFF MY TEAM! and go join the other cheat in LA.

Maybe the New Yorker got it right?

Cambridge Massachusetts is a lot like Boulder, Colorado in the sense that it is possibly the most liberal city in Massachusetts. Hence the nick name "the peoples republic of Cambridge", which is akin to "the peoples republic of Boulder". It seems to me that when the Prez starts bashing the Po Po in a city which staunchly supports him, it is like slapping yourself in the face. I just don't get it.

Is he really that good?

Pistol Pete here is just about to wrap up the Tour de France, and questions about his performance are starting to come up.

A friend said: "Finally Lemond has some one other than Lance to focus on."
Isnt that the truth. If you watched the Giro this spring, does Contador's performance remind you of DiLuca's? It sure looks similar to me. We may never know if he is a doper, but one has to wonder if he is really that good. That in itself is unfortunate.....
