Laurie & Julio Get Married

Laurie & Julio Get Married

by Scott Boden

______________________________________________________________

A little rain did not stop one of the most beautiful brides I have ever seen walk down the aisle. Julio was as nervous as anyone I have ever seen and according to his closest friends this was the most rattled day of his life. Most commented to me about this very phenomenon. And it is strange that men do this.

I don't think it is because we are giving up mass dating or drinking with our friends and it is not about being able to go where ever you want without having to run it past someone. It is about the thought if she really will be there, show up, say "I do" and really take you for the rest of her life. Lets face it, men are the ones who generally need schooling in a relationship.

Maybe it is about giving life up as you know it! Because you know nothing will be the same again. Till death do you part! These are strong words. These words actually haunt some men. But these men did not marry my sister, the men I speak of married less than honorable women and have been cursed for life!

Laurie was rattled also and scared things would not go well, or I may be in the dark here as I do not know how women handle this stuff, I just know telling Laurie that Bob, Dad and I were going to eat at Red Robin 20 minutes before the rehearsal was not as funny as I thought it would be. I took a picture of the eatery with my phone and sent it to Laurie, and I received numerouse hate mails as I made Laruie cry. It is still funny to me and the guys but I don't think that Laurie has yet seen the humor.

The preacher did not make it to the rehearsal so we planned the ceremony as best as we could and ran through it a few times. But the preacher man did not like how we planned it or how we had the decorations. He was starting to get on my nerves and after listening to him we decided on a few suggestions he had and sent him sailing on how he wanted it decorated.

Emma threw rose petals on the aisle cloth and as she finished she she gave the touch down sign, she was very funny but cute. When the bride and her father appeared everyone took a breath and held back tears as best they could as they walked down the rose petaled cloth. The preacher however blew the ceremony on several levels and did not reconize the father and just told him to sit down.

The bride and groom said their vows proudly and lovingly. All day I kept telling Julio it was not too late to back out but he showed up and did it. They were beautiful and charming as they walked back down the aisle together as husband and wife with smiles on their faces, you couldln't brush away the look on their faces if you tried.

The best man, Fred was proud to be there for Julio and is by far a good man. Fred gave a nice toast too. You could tell they know each other well.

Abby cought the bouquet so as the superstition goes, the next wedding will be down the road a ways as Abby is only ten.

The newly married couple is in Florida hopefully in sunshine and warm temps for their honeymoon!

Our Blog

I Hate Politics

Our Blog

by Scott Boden

Our Blog seems to be the place for some politics, humor and keeping in touch. E-mails to me are still the main course of communicating essential comments or suggestions. While either method is wonderful, and welcomed, I would still prefer that your comments would come in form of a editorial to use on our News Page.

One suggestion I received is to make a button for a letter to the editor which is what I will do, how ever, I believe that not much would go there. We have so far this year had over 3300 visitors from 24 countries not including 161 hits from our US Government. So I don't see much coming in for letters to the editor that would be seen on our site.

There are only a handful of people that are involved in the blog and a little less involved with writing articles and then its not very often.

Jim Fox and Jen contribute regularly and I am behind with Jim's stories, due to my PC is not back yet from being repaired and this one takes for freakin ever to edit the website with.

I am still looking for some family members to get involved and start writing something once a week or so where they could cover a subject to keep us all informed.

We are a successful website but if more family don't get involved there really is not much use in our site. I am glad that so many people read our web but this is for everyone to use and without the family participating, that leaves me to write most everything.

I will keep it open for a while yet, but folks, It is for everyone, I don't want to be the only participant who writes.  Please start writing!

I Hate Politics

I HATE POLITICS

I hate politics. Even though I do, we still have to live with the consequences of those topics whether you turn a blind eye or not. It does and will affect our lives and our children’s lives.   Politics is completely out of control.  If anyone out there knows anything at all, they won't let Muslims run this country.  If they elect a Muslim, that Muslim will place  Muslims in the White House and their holy war will proceed at a high speed.  We thought the Twin Towers came down easy. That is still their goal, for all America to crumble like those towers. Why would anyone want to elect our enemy to run our country. Hand it to them, so they have the say so over us?  Why are the memories of what has happened always pushed away instead of learning from them?  Are we Americans really that stupid to think the people will change to niceness?  Just because compassion is imbedded in our hearts, we really have to get to real thinking about our enemies and their goals.     Look out everyone.  There should still be standards for this country on who can run and who can not.  We were not built as a country on Muslim beliefs, we were built as a country to believe in God and the gospel of Jesus Christ, that is why we do think nice, its who we are. The countries (Muslim believing) who don’t think nice are also trained to think that way toward us.  I could go on and on, politics gets me get all fired up.  We as Americans always want to give someone a chance, or we walk around in a cloud believing that it will change back to niceness. We don’t want to believe that hate can last, and that all humans don't want what we want.  Wake up smell the roses.    If you thought about running for president

today?  What is the first thing you have to consider? Your bank account and

who you had to rub elbows with to get there.   This is sad; in today's society, it appears that only the rich can run for office, but you know what, brains and common sense is not exclusive to just the rich, so shouldn't brains and common sense be the requirement for leading us?   There are a lot of real brains out there but money is the only thing that counts first and foremost.   Maybe they (the rich and uninformed public) think, well if they had brains, they would have the money.    That’s only the rich mans thinking.

 

Politics I hate it.  People need to get united.  The poor need to be helped and counted as important people, just as the rich think they are.  Americans need standards, like who can qualify as a candidate.

 

There are jobs in this world that need to be done. Even if it is just cleaning up a public park or planting trees to help the earth.  Or helping your neighbor who is in need, why is it the government is now that neighbor instead of you and me.  It's easy to let someone else do it, and when we let someone else do it we turn over our freedom in life and our control.  If welfare was not here, no matter what the circumstance, a person would have to figure out how to be feed themselves in some way,  if we were true neighbors we would have friendships and open our doors to others and share what the Lord intended and that’s a piece of ourselves.   

Thanks for letting me get started. 

God Bless our Country.   

Christina

This preacher has guts

It seems prayer still upsets some people. Please read.....

When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the
Kansas Senate,
Everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but
this is
What they heard;

"Heavenly Father,

We come before you today To ask your forgiveness and

To seek your direction and guidance.

We know Your Word says, "Woe to those who call evil good"

But that is exactly what we have done.
We have lost our spiritual equilibrium And reversed our values.

We have exploited the poor and Called it the lottery.

We have rewarded laziness And called it welfare.

We have killed our unborn And called it choice.

We have shot abortionists And called it justifiable.

We have neglected to discipline Our children and called it

Building self esteem.

We have abused power And called it politics.

We have coveted our neighbor's Possessions and called it ambition.

We have polluted the air With profanity and

Pornography and called it Freedom of speech and _expression.

We have ridiculed the time Honored values of our

Fore fathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh, God,
And know our hearts today; Cleanse us from every sin

And set us free. Amen!"

The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked Out during the prayer in protest. In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is pastor, logged
More than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 Of those calls
Responding negatively. The church is now receiving
International
requests for copies of this prayer from I ndia , Africa and Korea .

Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio Program, "The Rest of the Story," and received a larger response to this program than any
other he has ever aired.

With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our Nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called "one nation under God."

If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends. "If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything."

Think about this: If you forward this p rayer to everyone On your email list, in less than 30 days it would be heard by The world.

How many people in your address book will not receive This prayer.....do you have the guts to pass it on?

I just did!

EXTRA EXTRA

READ ALL ABOUT IT

Ideas: Elections and Such

by Amber Scalf

____________________________________________________________

Since having the internet, I have read all the articles and I have decided to voice some opinions, mostly ideas, if you must.

 

First proposal; with the election coming soon, I propose this:

*     A Voters Section Page.

*     I have seen articles involving the elections. MANY. I believe it is few sided.

*     We should have a voter/election/SPITBALL CANDIADATE column.

*      Unless everyone has an equal chance for EVERYONE’S voices to be heard and for ALL public information to be shared,  pertaining the next presidential and senator, as well as all other elections, than this website is NOT neutral to politics. That is not good.

*      --Just because these candidates MUCHO SUCKO---- and they, most definitely, positively do, I agree,  It does not mean we can not discuss which candidate sucks the most.

*      It is a big year, a leap, and it is officially “voting season”. Some voters(like I, are die hard mini politicians) those that are like I, will appreciate this column… and those that are not, might become interested and therefore assert awareness. Double blessing.

*       Let us debate about which candidates-SUCKS THE MOST!

*      Caution: Political gossip must be spread equally and fairly, as gossip always has been!!!!!!!  HA!

*       VOTE FOR AN ELECTION DEBATE COLUMN!  

*       For all insane and lesser insane voices to be heard.

 

Side proposal:

*      This contest would be open until November 4, the presidential election day.

*      First place winner receives: Their candidate as president of the site for one week!!!!!!!!!

*       I propose; a face-off with similar rules as the last contest.

*       But this time, with the candidates that we; hate, love, wish would run, wished existed, and wished ourselves to be.

*       The possibilities are endless. YOU YOURSELF CAN RUN AS PRESISENT!

*       You can place ads for anything you wish; Osama bin ladin, or your cheating dog, or Bob Barker, or your household plant, which may be more intelligent than the existing candidates. The possibilities are endless.

*       Must have some argument for why your “thing” should run.

*       Either way, the candidate with the most votes, pictures, ads, arguments whatever, WINS-  fictionary “king” of site-for ONE full week.

*       But this time, the negative ads should subtract from the positive ads. After all, that is how “mud slinging time”, works in the United States of (prescribed) America.

*       IT IS ONLY FAIR!    

 

 Additional proposal: MOST CRUCIALLY EFFECTIVE!

*      NEW COLUMN! Letter to the Editor.

*      CRUCIAL!

*      This web page must be permanent.

*      We should have this column! Most, Most Definitely.

*      MOST DEFINITELY, DEFINITELY, DEFINITELY

*      To critique, argue, appreciate, debate, discuss, relate, refuse, grow, become, understand, incise, entice, and utilize. To bounce off, share ideas and defuse opinions and have the ability to not only understand but state that anyone is just plain, insane.

*      Every good source contains a constructive argument of both sides (or they should). 

*      It would make this site a resource for college and high school papers, as well as debates, and all other official “thingy ma bobs”.

*      Every single week our articles should display a small section of this column. It would help bring people out to write and it would help more people to contribute.

*      It would get people involved: Nothing makes people speak up more than when they sincerely hate what others are saying.

*      Every good resource, magazine, newspaper, even television programs have opposing view points.

*      Obviously these are positive or argumentative critiques, no severe bashing.

*      Vote Letter to the Editor TODAY!!!!!

*      IT’S THE, AMERICAN THING TO DO!

*      A MUST

 

 We have the best family website in the whole web wide world- LETS BUILD IT UP!

What do you think?

 The Dancing Couple

by Jen

----The wind and the wind chime held hands tonight and played a melodic tune.

----Mother earth held out her arms and danced with the man on the moon.

----The wind said, "I must go, I have stayed here too long."

----The dancing couple begged the wind to stay and finish his song.

----As quickly as he arrived, the wind had gone, leaving the wind chime, once again, silent and alone.

----The owl and the cricket picked up the tune after the wind had gone astray.

----Mother earth and the man on the moon proceeded to dance the night away.

----When the night had ended, the sun walked in and he called it a day.

----The man on the moon asked Mother earth, "Will you please dance with me tonight in this very same place, for you certainly dance with such style and grace?"

----Mother earth replied,"I would be honored to dance with you, same place and same time and I shall request the beautiful melodies of the wind and the wind chime."

U.S.A.M

United States of Muslims

Afternoon Teaser: Are U.S. Muslims Cool With Suicide Bombing?

Pew Detects "Hair-Raising" Islamic Ideology Within Our Borders

Not Many U.S. Muslims Blame al Qaeda (AP)

Forget fighting terror abroad, new research indicates there may be bigger problems in our own backyard! According to a study released today by The Pew Research Foundation, around 25% of U.S. Muslims under 30 say "suicide bombings to defend their religion are acceptable at least in some circumstances." About the same precentage of respondents feel that the U.S. war on terrorism is "a sincere attempt to curtail international terror."

While this first-ever, nationwide, random sample survey of Muslim Americans found them to be largely assimilated and "happy with their lives," it also found that a majority of Muslim Americans believe it has "become more difficult to be a Muslim in the U.S. since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Most also believe that the government "singles out" Muslims for increased surveillance and monitoring." Still more bizarre is the fact that only 40% of the estimated 2.35 million Muslim Americans "believe Arab men carried out the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001." Of those, the gross majority either refused to answer, or were unsure who was responsible, though 7% said the attacks were the result of "a conspiracy involving The United States government or the Bush Administration."

Given the findings I'd like to take a very unscientific look at what OFF/beat readers feel about the subject. Are these numbers "hair-raising" as Radwan Masmoudi, president of the Washington-based Center for the Study of Islam and Democracy put it, or are they par for the course? Is America's foreign policy the root cause or is it perhaps Islamic extremism? And finally, do statistics like this matter or are they just a red herring that stirs up irrational fear? Feel free to comment as early and often as you see fit.

Ghetto Babe Michelle Robinson Obama

From the south side of Chicago, ghetto babe Michelle landed herself a Muslim. I can't wait to see how she will decorate our White House or how much that will cost us tax payers.

It makes me sick that anyone would vote for a Muslim. It's bad enough that he is a senator for our country. What the hell is wrong with you Americans?

What will it take? Lets hand our national security, the keys to all our military secrets, the keys to the bombs to the Muslims! We already know what they have done, what makes anyone think it is better now?

Where did America go? Where do you think it will go if Obama is our President?

Hillary Wins Ohio

Goes to show ya!

Goes to show ya!

by Scott Boden

___________________________________________________

I walked into the high school tonight to cast my vote. Go to precinct G table and tell them my name. I show my I.D. There are four ladies working this table and one of them asked me how I will vote.

I said "Privately, I will not discuss it with you"! This lady then told me I could not vote in the presidential primary race, but only on the local issues!

I fired up on the spot. I leaned over the table and was ready to call the prosecutor of our county and shut this place down, I saw RED. I don't know about you, but I will not be forced to tell anyone who I vote for.

But the dumb ass just wanted to know if I was voting Democrat or Republican, even though I am a registered republican, I had to tell them out loud. This still upsets me!

I guess you can vote any ballet regardless of your registration. You can now change in mid stride.  So that makes it all that more likely that people will make mistakes as people have been voting for candidates that have dropped out of the race.

Goes to show you, the less you know, the more the candidates want you to vote. I think you should have to pass a test before you can vote.

You should have to know who is running for what, who dropped out, what the levies mean and there should also be a reject button to remove

candidates from the race and require new people to step up to the plate even if that means a longer race, a new race.

There should also be a remove vote every year for all elected people!

I did see more blacks out voting than I have ever seen before, I am guessing that is because Obamaba is black, but I am just guessing. I do not think for one minute that it's because he is a muslim.

Will Obamaba get extra points/votes because he is black? Will Hillary get extra points/Votes because she is a woman? If so, who will get more extra votes?

On the news tonight there are 2% of votes going to Fred Thompson! Hillary has taken the lead, and McCain walked in Ohio, Texas, Vermont and New Hampshire.

Obamaba needed Ohio but did not get it. Hillary needed Ohio to stay in the race. I do not know how this is going to go, but I feel Obamaba will be our next President!

I have gotten alot of emails and texts today from many people who have told me how they have voted. I am unsure as to why Hillary is getting the votes from my friends and family, but she has. I do not want Hillary or Obamaba as our president. I don't want McCain either. He is a democrat in republican clothing.

To sum it up, we are screwed. If you were sick of the political commercials up to the primary, just wait for what is next. It is mud slinging time. So grab your slop boots cause it's gonna get deep.

Scarlet Or The Sea

----Tonight the harbor is filled with many boats of all sizes and colors. The lanterns that light up the boardwalk, reflect upon the dark, murky water.

----A lonely Captain sits on his ship and breathes in the salty air. The Captain looks up at the restless clouds, the clouds are a reflection of himself. The Captain will always be lonely, for he has two Loves, he is true to both yet, he can never truly pick one or the other.

----His first Love, he holds dear to his heart, her name is engraved on a golden locket and inside the locket he carries her picture. She has long shiny locks of golden hair and blue eyes so deep, a Captain of any ship could get lost in. Her lips are the color of rose petals and her skin is the color of ivory. Her warm smile could brighten any stormy sea and her name is Scarlet.

-----His other Love is the sea. The sea and the Captain almost seem to be one. The sea can be calm and welcome you into her arms one day and the next day she can be restless and turn you away. Restless or calm, the Captain will always be in Love with the sea and the mystery that she holds.

----He Loves both and soon he must choose between them. If he chooses Scarlet, the sea will never be his again. If he chooses the sea, Scarlet will simply be a photograph kept in a golden locket, of a woman he once Loved yet, lost.

We are in trouble...
from Marie Boden


The population of this country is 300 million.

160 million are retired.

That leaves 140 million to do the work. 

There are 85 million in school.

Which leaves 55 million to do the work.

Of this there are 35 million employed by the federal government.

Leaving 15 million to do the work.

 2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama  

 Bin-Laden.

Which leaves 12.2 million to do the work.

Take from that total the 10.8 million people who work for state and city

Governments. And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work. 


 At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals.

Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons. 

That leaves just two people to do the work.

You and me.

And there you are,

Sitting on your ass,

At your computer, reading jokes.

Nice. Real nice.

Hillary Wins Ohio

I am watching her as I write. She has won many states in her race for commander and chief. I think she will need Texas. If she wasn't such a Sheila, she could be a good president. What did I say? I said really nothing, just like she says. The only thing she can say she will do is change our health care. A reform is coming. For everyone. The poor will still be poorer, the rich will help pay for the reform, but everyone will lose 1/2 of their income. Watch out! To all the doctors who went to school, pay their insurance, treat patients and make money, please stay being a doctor. There is no doubt you all are smart enough to make more money doing something else, but please still be our doctors. After Hillary or Obamaba get a hold of you, and our system, we will still need to see you, I know it will take months to get in to see you, but we will still need you!

Deep Fried Tater Cakes

An Original Recipe

Using Peanut Oil,

Set your deep frier to:

Use a heaping cup of thawed hash brown potatoes, at room temperature.

Get out five slices of bread.

Then dice into small pieces.

Cut three slices of red Onion.

Dice onion as well...

You will also need one egg.

Add all ingredients into a large bowl.

Add Salt and Pepper.

Mix well by hand.

Deep Fryer Rules:

IF oil is too hot, outside of food will over cook.

If not hot enough, food will absorb oil.

Adjust at 25 degree changes!

 

Once thoroughly mixed together, roll up small balls, smaller than a golf ball.

Then flatten to less than 1/2 inch cakes.

This recipe makes about 10 cakes. This will feed 2-3 people.

When adding to your deep frier, do not let cakes touch each other.

Cakes will float and they will have to be turned over while deep frying.

Fry until edges are dark brown.

Drain on paper towels and salt again.

Serve right away.  2-3 minutes per frying batch!

Tonight, I served with Round Eye steak and Homemade Butt Rolls. Also an easy recipe!

12/12/ 2007
 

It's been a change, moving on from the relative familiarity of NZ and
Oz, into South East Asia/ Indo-China. Even though Singapore has English as a primary language (British colonial heritage), it is definitely more "different" than Australia.
 
First Australia in summary: We think of Europe as being closely aligned with US culture and interests. From Seattle, England is as close as the East Coast (over the top) -- close enough for a "weekend."
 
On the other hand Australia is on the other side of the Pacific, other
side of the Equator, other side of the Date-line -- about as far as you
can get. However, we really do share very similar colonial history (vs
the British colonial empire, etc.) We are so similar, they consider the
relationship "special." Though, the last decade has caused many to
question their following the US too closely without adequate debate and question. Their recent election has causes a "sea-change."
 
Frankly, I found few surprises in Australia. Oh sure the old timers,
speak funny; and they all drive on the left. However, today's Australia is quite multicultural (more than the old-timers would like, I suspect) -- though the younger ones are marching right on with little concern.

(Unfortunately, their "Aboriginals" are generally out-of-the-loop, even more than our "native-Americans." It just doesn't seem to work -- too much differences between cultures -- with exceptions, of course.

Singapore: The flight was several hours, crowded, fully 30,000-ft, high above lots of water and islands and increasing clouds. It's nice to be in the part of the world where airline food is still good.

I could not reserve a room, so I went to the Arrival Lounge Reservation Desk, and found a place for S$70 (US$50) per night -- just fine.

But first, Singapore Airport is like a huge palace. Extremely busy and
obviously very very rich. Truly a world-class toruist travel center.
Customs and Immigration were insignificant.

Immediately, Singapore's "do it right" attitude became apparent.
(Remember the kid who was "cained" for spitting on the street, or some such?) Well, they run a tight-ship. Not as strict as the past, but it's a very close, social society. Folks simply, are very group-oriented, rather than rebelious and individual. They are not anti-social, they get along, in everything they do.
 
Today I took the Rapid Transit, way out in the country (north-Island) in a big loop. I saw thousands of 15-20 story Appartment buildings (with attached multi-level parking garrages); but zero individual houses. They may be there, however I saw none (along the rapid transit route.) This 100 sq-mile (?) island, is all urban and sub-urban, with Highly developed boulevards and high buildings here and there, everywhere. (One place did have dense thick "jungle-type vegitation, some sort of park, perhaps)
 
It's a rich place. I've seen no slums (or relatively few). Much of
Singapore-city is extremely rich shopping (Orchard Street). Street after street, block after block, floor above floor, is shops -- expensive (or emulating expensive) name-brand shops. Clothing, accessories, luxury stuff.
 
And food. Food courts are extensive, with Chinese, Indo-chinese, Indian, and many variations. You'd think that all they do is shop and eat. Even in the moderately poorer sections (my hotel area), the sidewalks are lined and overflowing with open restaurants, sprawled out to the curbs.
 
But, people are gentle and very social. People simply, get along. You
just don't see them "cheating" or pushing and shoving ahead like in many cultures. I sometimes think, is this the future? ... the future of an
over-populated Earth?
 
Last night, I took a taxi to my assigned hotel. It was S$13.20 or
similar. I gave him $15 - "Keep the change." He wouldn't keep the
change; it had to be correct. Wierd.
 
On the other hand, my hotel is in a marginal neighborhood (not even in the Lonely Planet Guidebook). As we drove off the richly lit and
landscaped Boulevard, into the local streets (10:pm), into increasingly crowded, narrow streets, I noticed hundreds and hundreds of women lining the streets, much like a parade. Huh??? Then it was clear, these were working-women, ladies-of-the-night. This neighborhood is very busy with it's "second-shift," this time of night.
 
Today, while wandering around, we had two major rain-storms. Seriousl rain, furious drops, but soon over. First cooling relief, then more humidity. Not exactly the best time of year to visit. Some folks carry umbrellas, but most don't. There are lots of awnings, and insides to shop, everywhere.
 
The Guidebook doesn't mention any Indian Embassy, but I found one on a map. I didn't have time to get a required Indian visa before leaving the US, figuring I'd get one along the way. Well, At the Embassy, a sign says go to either of 2 contract-agencies, that issue Visas.
 
Okay, back across town to one of the agencies. After filling out the
forms, the "agent" explained that they couldn't issue me the visa -- I'd
have to return to the US, (San Francisco) where "my" Indian Consulate was located.
 
Welcome to the gawd-awful bureaucracies of India. I don't need this crap in my life these days. I hung in there, and am to speak with an
"In-Charge" at the real Embassy tomorrow. It's expected to take
5-working days (and over $100??) -- if possible. Ho-hummmm. Do I need this?
 
On my Rapid-Transit tour (almost free, because I never exited the
system), I saw very little "industry." One area had some concrete and
steel fabrication shops. Almost everywhere else is housing, offices and shops -- and parks.

At one steel factory, worker housing and laundry, hung off the back wall of the building. Frankly, I'm not sure what Singapore does for a living. It's extremely rich. Maybe they've discovered the efficiencies of dense living. There's not a lot of wasted space, or wasted energy. Society is very focused. Interesting.

It was a long day. On the way back, from the excellent Rapid Transit
ride around the island, I walked the 8-blocks into my marginal
neighborhood. As noted, the streets are totally lined with shops and
restaurants. Upper-stories are the typically closed, crappy shuttered
windows found in Oriental sections of many cities. However the
restaurants were very vibrant and busy. (Massage-parlours were open but not yet busy). I was tired, thinking of skipping dinner. I'd had a big beef & rice at a Food Court, and several coffees during the day.

Well, so many of the restaurants looked strange, but inviting, but
"work" -- I hated to give up, even though it was a frustrating, fooey
sort of day. Finally at the corner of my hotel's small street; I picked
a restaurant, and pointed to rice, fish and 6 prawns (US$3.50). All were cooked (safe), even though the fish was only warm (probably safe). It was good, and slowly I regained control of my situation. I even, ordered a large "Tiger" beer, which the girl got from across the street. After dinner, at a "Starbucks" copy-cat across the main street, I taught the girl how to make a "Mocha" -- and all was well.

Tomorrow, I take on the world's worst bureaucracy -- or not.

Hmmm, I'm on my last S$1-coin, and this terminal will quit. (I've seen NO Internet Cafes in Singapore. They say all homes have good access.)

The adventure continues,

Johnny's Hat And Coat

by Jen

----The hat that he wears is his wisdom. He believes that you learn from your mistakes. His hat is scratched and worn yet, he still wears it because, it reminds him of his journey.

----The coat that he wears is his honesty. His coat has no patches therefor, there are no lies. His coat has no creases or wrinkles therefor, there are no twisted truths. His coat looks brand new, just as the day he bought it therefor his honesty has kept him in good condition.

----His wisdom and his honesty are his armor, as he walks through life. Children see him and try to mirror his way of life, in hopes of one day being like him in every way. Adults regret the paths they have taken and instead of changing their direction, they simply waste their time wishing for a hat and coat of armor just like his.

9 WORDS WOMEN USE
  


> (1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when
> they are right and you need to shut up.
> (2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half
> an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given
> five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
>
> (3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm.  This means
> something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with
> nothing usually end in fine.
>
> (4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't do It.
>
> (5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal
> statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you
> are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and
> arguing with you about nothing.   (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of
> nothing.)
>
> (6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a
> women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and
> hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
>
> (7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you. Do not question, or faint;
> just say you're welcome. I want to add in a clause here: This is true
> unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not
> thanking you at all.    DO NOT say 'you're welcome' in this case, for
> that will bring on a 'whatever').
>
> (8) Whatever: Is a women's way of saying sc*** YOU!
>
> (9) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement,
> meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several
> times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man
> asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to # 3.
>
> * Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments
> they can
> avoid if they remember the terminology.
> * Send this to all the women you know to give them a good laugh,
> cause they know it's true.

Aging Aunt Mildred

Aging Aunt Mildred was a 93-year-old woman who was particularly despondent over the recent death of her husband. She decided that she would just kill herself and join him in death. 

Thinking that it would be best to get it over with quickly, she took out his old Army pistol and made the decision to shoot herself in the heart, since it was badly broken in the first place. 


Not wanting to miss the vital organ and become a vegetable and a burden to someone, she called her doctor's office to inquire as to just exactly where the heart would be on a woman. The doctor said, 'Your heart would be just below your left breast'.


Later that night........ Mildred was admitted to the hospital with a gunshot wound to her knee.

 

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Speeding in PA

  

1) Good:
An Erie, PA policeman had a perfect spot to watch for speeders,
but wasn't getting many. Then he discovered the problem. A
twelve-year-old boy was standing up the road with a hand-painted sign,
which read 'RADAR TRAP AHEAD'. The officer then found a young
accomplice down the road with a sign reading 'TIPS' . . . and a bucket
full of money. (And we kids used to just sell lemonade!)


2) Better:
A motorist was mailed a picture of his car speeding through an
automated radar post in
Pittsburgh, PA. A $40 speeding ticket was
included. Being cute, he sent the police department a picture of
$40. The police responded with another mailed photo of handcuffs.


3) Absolute Best:
A young woman was pulled over for speeding. As the Pennsylvania
State Trooper walked to her car window, flipping open his ticket book,
she said, 'I bet you're going to sell me a ticket to the State
Troopers Ball.' He replied 'Pennsylvania State Troopers don't have
balls.' There was a moment of silence while she smiled, and he realized
what he'd just said. He then closed his book, got back in his patrol
car and left. She was laughing too hard to start her car.......

Dec.
12/8/2007
Up date from news central
After some errands, my friend in Adelaide, showed me around the city and
local countryside. Adelaide, the state capitol of South Australia is
another very dynamic, yet somewhat laid-back city. South Australia's
climate is very nice, cool to warm right now, and above freezing in the
winter. It's somewhat of an art center (three paintings were to bring
$1-million at an auction). Situated on a deep inlet, we drove south
along many miles of expensive houses above nice, white-sandy salt-water
beaches.

Eventually, we turned inland, into a rich area of vineyards. Dead-tired
from the train trip, I was very careful to limit the "wine-tasting's" to
"tasting's" -- which at three vineyards were good. Jan got her Christmas
gifts, several bottles of wine and olive-oil. As I remember the names
were Hugo and Midland and Shemrock?.

Wednesday noon I boarded the famous "Ghan" train, named for the early
Afghanistani camels and camel drivers who established the first caravan
route, north-south through the middle of Australia (where the railroad
now runs). They say some of the camels are still here, mostly wild,
though being re-exported as especially good breading stock, back to the
middle-east.

The train first retraces my previous "Indian-Pacific" train from Perth.
Then, it turns north across a very barren area, used by Australia for
missile testing (and the British for their nuclear testing). Utterly
empty for miles and miles, it's easy to understand why. Further north, I
was told the US has a "listening - site" -- listening to the entire
world they said. There are also speed-trials on a (usually) dry Salt
Lake, and an emergency landing strip for space-craft.

If the North and west of the country are uniformly scrubby wastelands,
these southern deserts are absolutely uniform, low gray-brown
clumpy-scrub on brownish-red soil, absolutely identical 360-degrees
around. With the exception of a few bushes, dotting the far horizon,
it's all the same. Every once in a while someone will point out a "Roo"
hopping across the landscape. These (3 or 4-foot) kangaroos, have been
too small to photograph from the moving train -- though I can claim I've
seen them.

The train stops often to let freight or the southbound "Ghan" pass; or
several hours in towns along the way -- long enough for tourists to take
a short local guided tour. In Katherine (I was there by bus last week),
I wandered around in the hot humidity for several hours. On the way back
to the rail-station, we took a detour to pick up two girls who had
canoed down the Katherine River, to one of the original Homesteads in
the area. The Homestead is now a nice traveler's campground, with
hundred year old trees around a "billabong" watering-hole.

On the way, we crossed an old concrete one-lane "bridge" at the river
"Low-Point" crossing. The bridge was built by the Americans during
WW-II, after the Japanese bombed Darwin. After that attack, Darwin was
used as a major staging area for the Pacific Campaign. Older Australians
are very conscious of the close cooperation between America and
Australia back then. This closeness has been mentioned several times.

North of Katherine, halfway to Darwin, the climate changed dramatically
to "tropical." First the scrub-brushland evolved into more Gum-tree
forest, with termite mounds everywhere again. (I've passed hundreds of
miles where the ancient Aboriginal practice of controlled-burns seem
very successful at maintaining an open forest. If left too long the
burns are too intense, damaging trees. However, if burned twice a year,
the forest seems quite healthy. Tree trunks are blackened, but the
grasses and upper leaves respond quite well.

South of Darwin, the sky darkened almost black with lightening creating
an almost 4th-of-July fireworks display. Then buckets of tropical rain
pelted the train, covering the ground, filling every water channel with
shining silver water darkening the red-sandy soil. Twice we passed
through this "Wet-Season"'s early storms. From here on the land is now
covered with dark lush green grasses and shrubbery. From here on, cattle
-- rather than wandering through open range (one "Station" they say has
1-million acres) -- cattle now are large herds in large green fenced fields.

Darwin is hot. Tropically humid, sunny and hot. The town was destroyed
by Hurricane (Cyclone, here) Tracy in 1974. It's now a "small-town" of
100,000, with big new buildings. Outside of the small tourist commercial
area, I'm sure there are suburban residential areas; and container and
bulk-ore, and fishing-fleet harbors. However, despite the very typical,
youthful travel and entertainment (bars and outdoor restaurant) area,
it's still a "small-town" with a very diverse cultural population.

I'm staying at the YHA Hostel (private room, $52/night). Today, after
reconfirming my flight to Singapore, I visited a Saturday Medical Clinic
for my Malaria-Pills prescription (for SE-Asia and India). I also
visited the outstanding Woolworth's Grocery Store, as good if not better
than most any in the US. Innumerable stuff on the shelves; and the
fruits, vegetables, meats, seafood and deli were utterly fresh and
asking to be taken. Even the variety of green salads come in
multi-packs, like at home.

It's hot, but cool most places inside. This Internet Cafe is franchised
around the country, and has excellent equipment. They also have
phone-cards. (I tried one call to the US -- though I hate public phones;
it did work).

So, 2-more days in the land of Oz. It's been fun, and hard work. I
wouldn't recommend my circumnavigation of the country; but given my
limitations, I saw a lot of country, sitting in buses and trains,
watching the world go by.

Best to all,

--jim

PLANNING A WEDDING IS

ROCKET SCIENCE Part TWO

Eating Good


1-3/4 all purpose flour

¼ tsp. salt

1 tbls. Baking powder

2 tbls. White sugar

 

Mix dry ingredients in a bowl and make a well in the center.

 

Separate 2 large or extra large eggs. Reserve the whites in a separate bowl.

In a separate bowl from the egg whites and dry ingredients, beat egg yolks,

add 1-3/4 cup of milk, 1/3 cup of cooking oil and 1 tsp of vanilla. Beat with whisk until well combined then pour into the dry ingredients, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened. Batter will be lumpy.

Beat reserved egg whites with electric mixer until white, stiff peaks form.

GENTLY fold beaten whites into the above batter. This is important so that waffles are light and airy.

Pour approx. ¾ cup of batter into a preheated Belgium waffle iron. I have not had much success using a smaller iron as these waffles rise quite a bit while baking. I usually preheat and bake the waffles on the 2-1/2 setting on my iron. Increase setting if you like crispy waffles. Bake approximately 5 minutes or until almost no steam is emitted from the iron.

 

Makes approximately 5 Belgium waffles. These freeze very well after completely cooling on a wire rack. Reheat in the toaster.

PLANNING A WEDDING IS ROCKET SCIENCE II

 by Laurie Scalf

___________________________________________________

Well, after only a dozen trips to jewelry stores, I found the perfect ring. Julio picked up the most beautiful ring in the world and brought it to me. Apparently he still wanted to marry me, and Thank God, because we already had the hall and the other wedding ideas! (Only kidding baby!)
 
This story was going to be a brief update on the wedding, but as we were too naive to know, there is nothing brief about planning a wedding.
 
In summary, we soon realized if we were going to get married, we need to, well, get married. Hmmm I guess we need to have a ceremony. So a preacher would probably come in handy. We met with a very nice preacher who agreed to do our ceremony and started asking crazy questions. What music are you having?  Are you writing your own vows? Who is walking you down the isle? We'll the who is easy, obviously my wonderful Dad who recently told me he would walk anywhere I wanted to go! (I am a lucky girl!) But I guess I didn't realize there was going to be an isle! Since magically appearing next to Julio, saying a quick "I Do" no longer seamed feasible, an isle it is!
 
Well, to get you completely up to date, a couple of weekends ago, my daughter Amber, my Brother Scott, Robyn, my parents, Julio's Mother, my brother Bob, Sandy, Julio and I got together to discuss the tiny details of the wedding/wedding reception!

We talked about all the non-traditional details like "the isle", "walking down the isle", the food, the music, the bouquet 

throw, the cutting of the unnecessary cake (which I ordered yesterday!), the garter thing, "our song", the "Father Daughter, Mother Son" dance, the centerpieces, flowers, decorations and scores of other simple details.

Since that wedding brainstorming event, I have realized that the perfect music for the night doesn't magically appear on a thumb drive, the cake doesn't bring itself to the reception, (or cut itself, for that matter), the dress doesn't alter itself, apparently the paper goods, silverware, glasses, decorations, flowers and alcohol aren't just going to show up!  Julio has mentioned writing our own vows, so if anyone has talent for that sort of thing, my vows can be submitted to my email address laurie.scalf@gmail.com  (Again, I'm kidding, Baby!)
 
Other cutting edge ideas we have for the wedding are to have a Maid of Honor, My Lovely Daughter Amber, a best man, Julio's good friend Fred, and a sudden decision to have an adorable little flower girl, Emma. This weekend "ROUND TWO" on the wedding details.  Not much left to do!! Oh, yea, does anyone know if we have to get a marriage license?

Obamaba linked to Terrorists!

Birthday Reminder

Obamaba Linked to

Terrorists

by Scott Boden

_______________________________________________________

According to Shawn Hannity, Obama's preacher, gave a humanitarian award to Obama's friend and associate for planning an attack on the United States of America.

I do not know the name of this guy, but if it came from Hannity, then you can be sure it is true. I am sure though that this news paper cannot afford to chase down the leads, to do a story for ourselves, (unless someone puts up the money), so we will have to wait for Hannity to give us the details, which I am sure he will.

Hannity promises he will have a full report, and that NBC or ABC or who ever chose NOT to release this information. The press is also not a good thing folks!

Obamaba will be our last president if elected, that is, that this country will ever see. It will no longer be America! We will lose more of our rights than ever before. We will be a Muslim

country and the home of terrorists. The fighting will be in our own back yards, our children will see it with their own eyes.

If you choose Obamaba, you will be a party to the loss of America! You will be a party to the loss of white America! You will be a party to the terrorists of the world!

All of us will have to take arms, the old, the young, the sick and tired. Food will be hard to get. Gas will be hard to get. Life will change forever!

God I hope I am over stating the possibilities of Obamaba for president. It will be evil!

America  Needs A Leader Like This!  

 

Muslims  who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on  Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted  radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.  
 

Separately,  Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying  he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques.  Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or  Leave It I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we  are offending some individual or their culture. Since the  terrorist attacks on Bali ,  we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of  Australians.' 
  

'This  culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles,  trials and victories by millions of men and women who have  sought freedom'.

 

'We  speak mainly ENGLISH; not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese,  Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you  wish to become part of our society . Learn the language!'   

 

'Most  Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right  wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and  women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this  is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display  it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I  suggest you consider another part of the world as your new  home, because God is part of our culture.'   
'We  will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we  ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful  enjoyment with us.'  

 

'This  is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow  you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done  complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge,  Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage  you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom,   
'THE  RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'
 
  

'If  you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come  here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU  accepted.' 

 

Maybe  if we circulate this amongst ourselves, American citizens will  find the backbone to start seeking and voicing the same  truths.

Walk Of Childhood Memories

----He sits alone, gazing out the window, lost in deep thought, his silvery hair, tired eyes and wrinkled hands are just a few clues, as to the amount of time he has spent upon this earth.

----As he is lost in deep thought, he takes another countless walk throughout his childhood memories.

----He sips the wind that surrounds him, like a child would sip hot chocolate.

----He breathes in the fresh are, like a child would breathe in the fresh scent of Grandmother's kitchen.

----He curiously ventures through the forest, like a child would curiously venture through Father's tool shed or Mother's sewing room.

----He relaxes on the riverbank, like a child would relax in Grandfather's old rocking chair.

----Just before he returns from his walk of childhood memories, he wishes once more how he could once again sip the wind that surrounds him, breathe in the fresh air, curiously venture through the forest and relax on the riverbank, just as he did when he was a child.

Congratulations to Laurie and Julio

Obama the Muslim, Equals Stupidity

Letters to the Editor

Picture of Obama's Followers

Congratulations

to

Laurie and Julio

by Kelly Clouse

_______________________________________________________________________

I just want to say congratulations to you both on you're wedding. It was very beautiful and you two were gorgeous.

Neither one of them tripped but the bride started to laugh and we thought there was going to be a hysterical uncontrollable laugh from the bride during the ceremony when the preacher, we thought was going to say the word “obey.” Though, that would have been funny to see. Great job Laurie and Julio!

Emma, the flower girl, looked so cute in her dress and when she was throwing the rose petals on the floor. I think she practiced so much that when it was time for the real thing she was just excited that she didn’t have to do it anymore that the touchdown arms went
up. A lot of the attention was on her; but how could you not give her

the attention, she is so darn cute. She did a great job. Great job Emma!

The best man Fred did a great job on the speech. I personally don’t like giving them I would get all flustered and go blank just as soon as I started. Great job Fred!

The parents of the bride and groom looked very nice. And as Scott stated on his input about the father of the bride walking her down the isle the preacher did throw him off to the side which was very rude I thought. He didn’t say anything about him or to him, just pushed him behind. But he did a great job. Great job Dad!

All in all, everyone danced and had a great time. The night was perfect.

YES, I'M A BAD AMERICAN

submitted by Marie Boden

_______________________________________________________________

I Am the Liberal-Progressives Worst Nightmare.

I am an American.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some Liberal governmental functionary be it Democratic or Republican!

I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!

I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer,

it makes you a smart American.

I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything.

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac,

do it in English.

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to.

My heroes are John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and whoever canceled Jerry Springer.

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time

watching or arguing about it.

I've never owned a slave, or was a slave, I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you! So, shut up already.

I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where you came from and change your own country!

This is AMERICA .

If you were born here and don't like it you are free to move to any Socialist country that will have you.

I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution. Can I get an AMEN on that one?

I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry rear if you're running from them..

I also think they have the right to pull you over if you're breaking the law, regardless of what color you are.

And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my drivers license. I think it's good..... And I'm proud that "God" is written on my money.

I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years.

I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making "donations" to their cause.

I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents, one of each sex.

I believe "illegal" is illegal no matter what the lawyers think.

I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed in AMERICA !

If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.

If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to everyone you know.

We want our country back!

Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam. Obama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta. Wahabism is the RADICAL teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world. Since it is politically expedient to be a CHRISTIAN when seeking major public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background. ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Koran.


Barack Hussein Obama will NOT recite the Pledge of Allegiance nor will he show any reverence for our flag. While others place their hands over their hearts, Obama turns his back to the flag and slouches. Do you want someone like this as your PRESIDENT?
Let us all remain alert concerning Obama's expected presidential
candidacy. The Muslims have said they plan on destroying the US from the inside out, what better way to start than at the highest level - through the President of the United States, one of their own!

How smart is your Right Foot? Just try this - it's from an orthopedic
surgeon and it will boggle your mind. You will keep trying over and over
again to see if you can outsmart your foot, but you can't. It's
preprogrammed in your brain!

1. WITHOUT anyone watching you (they will think you are GOOFY) and while
sitting where you are in front of your computer, lift your right foot
off the floor and make clockwise circles.

2. Now, while doing this, draw the number "6" in the air with your right
hand.

/Your foot will change direction!/

I told you so!! And there's nothing you can do about it! You and I both
know how stupid it is, but before the day is done you are going to try
it again, if you've not already done so.

"Hillary Clinton is the junior senator from the great state of New York. When they swore her in, she used the Clinton family Bible. You know, the one with only seven commandments."—David Letterman

"Hillary said today that she knew nothing about her brother's involvement (in Clinton's pardons). I believe her. This woman didn't even know who her husband was having sex with. How is she going to know what her brother is doing? Six months ago, she just suddenly found out she lived in New York!" —Jay Leno

Hillary wakes Bill about 3 am to tell him she has to go to the bathroom. He asks her "Why are you waking me to tell me that?" She says, "I want you to save my place."

Obama the Muslim, Equals Stupidity

by Scott Boden

*************************************************************

Why anyone would vote for Obama is beyond me. I guess you would have to be stupid or mentally challenged or the like. If you are stupid enough to vote for Obama then you are stupid enough to believe I will pay you not to vote!

I have yet to see anything other than a Muslim back ground on this guy. IF YOU VOTE FOR HIM YOU ARE ANTI AMERICAN!

I know some of you really believe he is not a Muslim, how marvelous, and ignorant of you, but this country loves it's mentally handicapped gullible people because all they have to do is tell you what you want to hear and you eat it up!

If you are not smart enough to research who you are voting for then please let the voting go to people who can at least read and write.

I like to hear from people who say they have voted for Obama. It shows me they are dazed and confused in it's simplest form, from a breathing human being. I at least hope you are a happy person because I have heard stupid people are at best happy. They know no better if they are happy or not because they are simple.

Hillary will not make this country any better either, she is a socialist. Which means a political movement with the goal of a social economic system in which property and the distribution of

wealth are subject to control by the community, state or federal government.

You socialist's have taken away guns (only from law abiding citizens), smoking in bars which you have not the guts to enter, SSI from our elderly, and now you pukes think that the proposed health care is a good thing!

I vote there should be a ballot that states socialism is cause for capital punishment! At least there should be one day a year where you can shoot as many socialists as possible.

And if you think for one minute that the proposed heath care is a good thing, I want to know what it is! I will bet that you are just hoping, you don't know how, but hoping it will be better because it sounds good. I will bet that you have no idea how it works. For if you did, you would pass it up like the flu that you will not get treatment for in a timely manner, if either one of the dems get elected.

Prove me wrong!

  There is a brand new little Mexican restaurant here in Findlay, I think it's called "Taco Shack" or something like that. It's located in the mini-mall way out on S, Main St., where China Rose is. It is the best Mexican food I have ever had.....yes, better than the Pour House......that's good. It's just a little hole-in-the-wall place with 5 small booths and a couple of tables, and sorry, no alcohol, but anyone that likes Mexican food should give it a try when you're in town.

Sue,

Next time we are in Findlay, maybe we all can go check it out?

I would like that!

To The Editor:

Scott,

I do appreciate that you have posted my poems on your website however, after seeing the website today and seeing the content and what you have added as far as Obama and his Wife, I need to ask you to please do not post any more of my poetry on your website, as I do not want for anyone out there to think that "YOUR" beliefs are the same as my own beliefs in regards to Obama being a Muslim........if I alow my poetry to be on the same web site as this garbage that you are spreading then that makes me just as bad as the lies that you are spreading!!!!

If you are able to go back and remove my poetry then that would be SUPER and please do NOT continue to post my poetry on your website!!!

 

Respectfully, Jennifer Lynn Morris

~~~~~~~

Jen,

As it would be too time consuming to go back through all the editions and rewrite them and publish them again, sort of re writing history, just to remove poems is way over the edge as well as juvenile, and to the EXTREME side of LIBERAL, Bodensonline will no longer except or publish poems by Jennifer Lynn Morris as requested.::::

Bodensonline would like to take a moment and thank Jennifer Lynn Morris for her contributions of poetry and to remind everyone that if you DO NOT LIKE MY VIEWS,send in YOURS, you will get equal time and space.::::

Thank you all,::::Scott

hi,
I remember going to aunt Clarabell for a few days every summer, we would swing in the barn, let the goose chase us, watch her monkey jump all over, and being able to fly when you rode with aunt Clarabell,.
Than there were days I would stay at uncle  Bob, play on th organ, playing on the playground, and listening to Scoot play is guitar on the front porch
I remember camping trip with my poppa, the fishing the hikes, and the stories.
These are treasured memories to me and always will be.......

Names in Cell Phone

Something to think about & maybe make a change?????!!!!!
 
 Be careful how you list names on your cell phone!
This lady has changed her habit of how she lists her names on her mobile phone after her handbag was stolen. Her handbag which contained her mobile, Credit card, purse...etc.... was stolen. 20 minutes later when she called her Husband, from a pay phone telling him what had happened, hubby says 'I've Just received your text asking about our Pin number and I've replied a little while ago.'
 
 When they rushed down to the bank, the bank staff told them all the money was already withdrawn. The pickpocket had actually used

the stolen hand phone to text 'hubby' in the contact list and got hold of the pin number. Within 20 minutes he had withdrawn all the money from the bank account.
 
 Moral of the lesson: Do not disclose the relationship between you and the people in your contact list. Avoid using names like Home, Honey, Hubby, sweetheart, Dad, Mom etc....... And very importantly, when sensitive info is being asked thru texts, CONFIRM by calling back. Also, when you're being texted by friends or family to meet them somewhere, be sure to call back to confirm that the message came from them. If you don't reach them, be very careful about going places to meet 'family and friends' who text you ..

During a recent publicity outing, Hillary sneaked off to visit a fortune teller of some local repute. In a dark and hazy room, peering into a crystal ball, the mystic delivered grave news.

"There's no easy way to say this, so I'll just be blunt: Prepare yourself to be a widow. Your husband will die a violent and horrible death this year."

Visibly shaken, Hillary stared at the woman's lined face, then at the single flickering candle, then down at her hands. She took a few deep breaths to compose herself. She simply had to know. She met the fortune teller's gaze, steadied her voice, and asked her question.

"Will I be acquitted?"

“The worst weekend of my life.”

by Kelly Clouse

********************************************************************

I have a story to share with you about this past weekend.

We went to Laurie’s for Laurie and Julio's wedding. Mom and Dad, Scott and Robyn, Ryan and I and Dustin and Abby. We were working very hard to get everything ready for their wedding. The wedding went very well; it was great the bride and groom looked very nice. Everyone had a great time except for one 9 yr old little girl. "This is the worst weekend of my life." Abby said. Let me explain what happened.

I won't mention any names but there is this 20 yr old woman (her cousin yet to boot) was very mean to her. Mind you it's a 20 yr old verses a 9 yr old. Friday she said some rude things to her and I just told Abby to ignore her and let it go. Saturday was a different story.
 
Remember 20 yr old verses 9 yr old

Abby was playing the piano, a song that she just learned quite a few times. With everyone there it was kind of hectic with the talking and piano. That sheet music was taken away from her and she was given something else to play. Abby thought that we thought she played really bad and took it away, 9 yr old stuff and she started to cry. Well, her aunt comforted her to let her know that wasn't the case. While she was being comforted the 20 yr old started laughing at her in a loud, obnoxious making fun of her kind of way that was never ending singing, "You can't play it anymore." We had told the 20 yr old to stop by myself and by her mother. Then she started saying stuff like "Oh! I forgot you can do anything when your 9 and cry." (I know this sounds crazy but she really is 20.) And that was never ending. I told my family lets leave so; Abby doesn't have to see or hear this 20 yr old saying all this mean, immature, rude, angry things. The 20 yr olds mother argued and told her to stop acting like that and I thought it was over, boy was I wrong.

Remember 20 yr old verses 9 yr old

Abby was waiting by the door for us when the 20 yr old in a rage looked at her and said, "You F-n Bi-ch" to Abby, 9 yrs old. She better thank God she left. Abby couldn't understand why she said that, she still doesn't understand.

Remember 20 yr old verses 9 yr old

That’s not all, we went to the wedding and it was beautiful and everything was great. Laurie was just about to throw the bouquet and Abby went up to try and catch it like everybody else. Well, she caught it. Laurie congratulated Abby and she was on cloud 9 just as happy as could be. Until, you guessed it the 20 yr old, she was so mad she didn't catch it that if you could see her face and her mouth just cussing Abby out under her breathe you thought she was having a seizure.

Remember 20 yr old verses 9 yr old

Ryan, Abby and two other people went outside shortly after Abby caught the bouquet and here come the 20 yr old getting in a car screaming across the parking lot to Abby "You F-n Bi-ch" AGAIN. Can you believe that?  Abby is freaking out by this point and all I want to do is beat her. I kept saying to myself don't ruin their wedding. Believe me it took all I had not to do anything to this 20 yr old. I have never been so mad in my life. All I kept thinking about was not to ruin this wedding.

Remember 20 yr old verses 9 yr old

Come to find out the 20 yr old was running her mouth about Abby all night. I know this is true because EVERYBODY and I mean EVERYBODY kept coming up to me and asking me why I won't take care of it. There were people there I didn't even know asked me why I won't stop her. All I kept saying was, "I won't ruin their wedding, I won't ruin their wedding."  Believe me I have never been more upset, mad, angry, hurt and scared that Abby might go in the bathroom without me, and she would be in there. I don't know what she would have done to her.

Remember 20 yr old verses 9 yr old

I had just about enough of her sh-t and I told Ryan that we need to leave or it's going to get ugly. I called the shuttle about 10:30 and told a family member that I was sorry about leaving and I couldn't help clean up or I was probably going to jail. In the mean time when Abby and I are on the shuttle I hear that the 20 yr old went a little psycho on Ryan. Saying that she was called a F-n Bi-ch all the time when she was 9 "so what’s the big deal?" she would say over and over waving her head, hands and hips like someone on the Maury Show. She just doesn’t care about anyone but herself. But the strangest part about her little fit with Ryan is that Ryan or myself never said one word to her about it she brought the whole thing up when Abby and I already left. Hmmmmmm!

 Remember 20 yr old verses 9 yr old

Can anyone understand why this was the worst weekend of Abby’s life?

We’re still trying to help Abby cope with all this.

Would anyone like to know who the 20 yr old is………..Oh that’s right………..you already know.

And if you weren’t at the wedding and would like to know, all you have to do is ask!

Mastercard  Wedding

________________________________

You got to  love this guy... This is a true story about a recent Wedding that  took place at Clemson University . It was in the local  newspaper and even Jay Leno mentioned it.

It was a huge  wedding with about 300  guests.
After the wedding, at the reception,  the groom got up on stage with a microphone to talk to the crowd.   He said he wanted to thank Everyone for coming, many from   Long distances, to support them At their wedding. 

He especially wanted  to thank the bride's and his family and to thank his new  
father-in-law for providing such a lavish reception.

As a token  of his deep appreciation he said he wanted to give everyone
A special gift just from him.

So taped to the bottom of everyone's chair, including the wedding party was an  envelope.

He said this was his gift to everyone, and asked  them to open their envelope.

Inside each manila envelope was an 8x10 glossy of his bride having sex with the best man.

The groom had gotten suspicious Of them weeks earlier and had hired a private detective to tail them.

After just standing there, just  watching the guests' reactions for a couple of minutes, he  
turned to the best man and
said, 'F---you!' Then he turned to his bride and said, 'F--- you!'

Then he turned to the dumbfounded crowd and said, 'I'm outta here.'

He had  the marriage annulled first thing in the morning.

While most people would have canceled the wedding immediately after  finding out
About the affair, this guy goes through with the charade, as if nothing were wrong.

His revenge--making the  bride's parents pay over $32,000 for a 300-guest wedding and  reception, and best of all, trashing the Bride's' and best man's  reputations in front of 300 friends and family  members.

This guy has balls the size of Church  bells.

Do you think we might get a MasterCard 'priceless'  Commercial out of this?

Elegant wedding reception for 300 family members and friends: $32,000.
Wedding  photographs commemorating the occasion: $3,000
Deluxe  two-week Honeymoon accommodations In Maui : $8,500.

The look on everyone's  face when they see the 8x10 glossy of the bride humping the  best man: Priceless.

There are some things money can't  buy, for everything else there's MASTERCARD

To The Editor:

Over the last three days, I have watched a seemingly meaningless difference of opinion get blown way out of proportion and turn ugly. Our website is now being accused of copyright infringement (which I think is ridiculous) and I feel it is time to address the issue of submissions to our newspaper. I propose that our editor no longer accept submissions from second parties. Any original work, like this letter, must be submitted by the author personally with accompanying permission to use the material on the website and permission to edit any inappropriate language or content. This editorial license will not be abused and used to change the tone or context of the submission, but will allow the editor to keep our site a “family friendly” website.

Please remember we encourage debate and freedom of expression. Do not be afraid to write a contradiction to any opinion you find on the blog or in the newspaper. I think most of the members of our “web community” find this amicable arguing entertaining and enlightening. Political and social satire is always welcome. Our goal is to make our readers smile and perhaps even chuckle. If we rile you to passion and the need to write an article, Hurrah for us!

I would like all of the Boden family, including all extended members, to let Scott and I know what you think about my proposal. Remember this proposal will not apply to submissions that are found at other free websites ( web e-mails like jokes, stories etc.) since we are a private, noncommercial, not for profit website. Mom, keep your material coming; we love your jokes, pictures and news items! And Nancy P. keep all us conservatives on our toes!

Robyn

P.S. I submitted this letter personally and bodensonline.com has my express written consent to use my material on the website.

Robyn,

I agree we need input from our family. However, if it is NOT COPYRIGHT material, permission to use it is legally not needed. Which means folks that we do not have to formally give permission. If it is COPYRIGHT material, I think the author should say as much, and then have written permission via e-mail, which means formal permission must be given.

Further, it is sad, that we need to discuss and poll on this subject matter because of a couple of morons, lol but as everyone knows it only takes one dumb ass to screw things up for everyone!

When submitting material using our internal "letters to the Editor" by submitting, you have agreed to above. Also, it is stated that anything submitted is a gift. Do we need to go any further folks because of one bad apple and a rotten potato?

Easter Mishap With Da Bunny

The Obamaba Campaign took a turn for the worst when Barack dressed in a bunny suit, saying "I can beba Christianba, an celebrateba Easter n shiba" when a car out of no where flew past him, then came to a

screeching halt, turned around, then barreled back down the road, when his passenger car door suddenly opened which hit the wannabe president, splattering him across the road way.

Again the car came to a screeching halt, and a preacher got out of the passenger side of the car and said it was an accident and that he was just

trying to put a donation into the Easter basket the bunny was holding.

Investigators looked suspicious at the Reverend Wright untill they saw a bag full of colored Easter eggs that had been colored red white and blue with writing on them that read, "This is for America".

The Detective in charge who is from Georgia, ruled the tragedy an accident. No charges will be filed.

A political satire

Obama's Preacher Damn's America

__________________________________________________________

Someone on the blog asked about what Obamaba and his preacher said that we feel should take him out of da race for president. If a white man would talk like this about black America, he would be sued and have to resign from running, and the career, would be over forever, and the next picture we would see of the white guy would be him working at McDonalds in the drive thru!

Obamaba, being a typical BLACK man, racist and Muslim shows his true color when he said racism is bred into you.

All this time, I thought racism was something you were forced to have because some black somewhere had an ancestor that may have been a slave at sometime and they are still oppressed about it!  GET OVER IT already!

PHONES IN CHURCH

submitted by Marie Boden

____________________________________________________________________

A man in Topeka , Kansas decided to write a book about churches around  the country. He started by flying to San Francisco and started working  east from there.  

Going to a very large church, he began taking  photographs and making notes.

He spotted a golden telephone on the vestibule wall and was intrigued with a sign, which read "Calls: $10,000  a minute."

Seeking out the pastor he asked about the phone and the sign.   The  pastor answered that this golden phone is, in fact, a direct line to  heaven and if he pays the price he can talk directly to GOD.

The man thanked the pastor and continued on his way. As he continued to  visit churches in Seattle , Dallas , St. Louis , Chicago , Milwaukee , and
 around the United States , he found more phones, with the same sign, and  the same answer from each pastor.

Finally, he arrived in Ohio , upon entering a church in Columbus , Ohio , behold - he saw the usual golden telephone.   But THIS time, the sign  read "Calls: 35 cents."

Fascinated, he asked to talk to the pastor, "Reverend, I have been in cities all across the country and in each church I have found this  golden telephone and have been told it is a direct line to Heaven and  that I could talk to GOD, but in the other churches the cost was $10,000  a minute.    Your sign reads only 35 cents a call.

  

The pastor, smiling benignly, replied, "Son, you're in Ohio now ...... You're in God's Country, It's a local call."

 The Boarding House Restaurant

by Anna Bomas

______________________________________________________________

This is a home-down restaurant with true home-cooked meals served in an actual house. Not many Marionites know about it. I ate there last week, entering the facility through its back door into the kitchen. There was the Chef surrounded by prepped, fresh vegetables and appealing red meat. He and his wife greeted me as if I was an old friend. They immediately announced the menu for the evening – my favorite – steak and potatoes.

The Chef remembered that I liked my steak rare. That complimented me. Standing before the stove, one could easily see he was a Grill master. His beautiful wife was assisting him and putting the final touches on the salad. I went into the bar that was adjacent to the kitchen. The ambiance of the bar was one of intimacy and comfort. The lights were low and the outer walls rimmed with patio lights. Bar paraphernalia surrounded the cozy room. Time passed quickly as I examined all of the intriguing knickknacks.

Since I was the only guest in my party, and this is an informal restaurant, the Chef called me into the kitchen, serving dinner banquet style. The salad was a mixture of crisp greens with fresh, feta cheese.

Magnificent. I was handed a plate with my hot, just-off-the-grill steak. The

presentation was appreciated. The Porterhouse was succulently browned with grilled vegetables spilling over the top. Fried potatoes were also beautifully presented, layered with bacon, herbs and cheese. Last but not least, a robust French onion soup was served with bread and a tousle of shredded cheese. I sat down to eat in the bar.

As I was the only one in the restaurant at that time, the Chef and his wife joined me. WHAT A MEAL. The soup was aromatic and delicious. The potatoes were perfectly cooked – crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The toppings were perfectly blended. The salad was fresh and crisp. The blue cheese dressing made it memorable. The steak, though, took the honors. A true, rare cooked delicacy. The specially blended sauce was awesome. I asked the Chef for the recipe, but like a true culinary artist, he refused to reveal it.

This was a meal that dreams are made of. I give the Boarding House Restaurant five stars with high recommendations. In order to eat at The Boarding House restaurant, though, one must receive a special invitation from the owners, Scott and Robyn Boden. Wasn’t I a lucky one? Hopefully, you will be one, too!

SMART ASS ANSWERS

submitted by Anna Bomas

  SMART ASS ANSWER #6 -- It was mealtime during a flight
 on Hooters Airline. 'Would you like dinner?' the
 flight attendant asked John, seated in front.
 'What are my choices?' John asked.
 'Yes or no,' she replied.
 _______________________________________________


 SMART ASS ANSWER #5 -- A flight attendant was
 stationed at the departure gate to check tickets. As a
 man approached, she extended her hand for the ticket
 and he opened his trench coat and flashed her. Without
 missing a beat, she said, 'Sir, I need to see your
 ticket, not your stub.'
 ________________________________________________


 SMART ASS ANSWER #4 -- A lady was picking through the
 frozen turkeys at the grocery store but she couldn't
 find one big enough for her family. She asked a stock
 boy, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?' The stock boy
 replied, 'No ma'am, they're dead.'
 ________________________________________________


 SMART ASS ANSWER #3 -- The cop got out of his car and
 the kid who was stopped for speeding rolled down his
 window. 'I've been waiting for you all day,' the cop
 said.
 The kid replied, 'Yeah, well I got here as fast as I
 could.'
 When the cop finally stopped laughing, he sent the kid
 on his way without a ticket.
 ________________________________________________


 SMART ASS ANSWER #2 -- A truck driver was driving
 along on the freeway. A sign comes up that reads, 'Low
 Bridge Ahead.' Before he knows it, the bridge is right
 ahead of him and he gets stuck under the bridge. Cars
 are backed up for miles. Finally, a police car comes
 up. The cop gets out of his car and walks to the truck
 driver, puts his hands on his hips and says, 'Got
 stuck, huh?'
 The truck driver says, 'No, I was delivering this
 bridge and ran out of gas.'
 ___________________________________

 SMART ASS ANSWER OF THE YEAR  -- A college teacher
 reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. 'Now
 class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being
 here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a
 serious personal injury, illness, or a death in your
 immediate family, but that's it, no other excuses
 whatsoever!'
 A smart-ass guy in the back of the room raised his
 hand and asked, 'What would you say if tomorrow I said
 I was suffering from complete sexual exhaustion?'
 The entire class is reduced to laughter and
 snickering. When silence is restored, the teacher
 smiles knowingly at the student, shakes her head and
 sweetly says, 'Well, I guess you'd have to write the
 exam with your other hand.'
 _________________________ _______________________

 Two bonus extras: A blonde goes to the post office to
 buy stamps for her Christmas cards. She says to the
 clerk, 'May I have 50 Christmas stamps?'

 Give me 6 Catholic, 12 Presbyterian, 10 Lutheran and
 22 Baptists.

Our Wedding

The Thing About Our Blog

Someone finally said it.

Letters to the Editor

Our Wedding

by Laurie Boden Scalf Rueda-Amaris

*********************************************

Wow!!! I couldn't have dreamed up a better day!  I still get a little teary about it! 

 

The days leading up to the wedding were great. Everyone was working non-stop to make it the awesome wedding and reception that it turned out to be. On Thursday, Saturday started rolling. Julio's Mom, Yolanda had already been working for several days on the centerpieces for the tables and the infamous "Balloon Bride and Groom" (who were later caught doing nasty things at the reception!)

 

My Mom and Dad were the first to arrive on Thursday, with a van load of goods for the wedding. So much so, two-by-fours were tied to the top of the van. Scott and my Dad built a wall of lights for the reception, which turned out to be the most beautiful backdrop! The caterers, DJ's, Bartenders, coordinators, Scott and Robyn were the next to get here, with a truck load of more stuff for the wedding! Our house turned into "Wedding Central".  Kelly and Abby came later, then Bob... everyone here to help get ready for the best day of my life!

 

The next few hours we did pickups.. Tuxes, corsages, linens, glasses.. loads of "stuff" and on Friday, more pickups. Bob, Scott and Dad went for the alcohol and pop. Me, Mom and Robyn went for the flowers and Amber picked up the corsages and boutonnieres. Then our trip for the rest of the food for the reception.

 

Let's get to Friday's Hilarious Joke on Laurie! It's 30 minutes before we go to the hall to decorate and rehearse and Scott thinks it would be funny to play a joke on me, that he, Brother Bob and my Dad are going to go to a restaurant.. a slow restaurant. At that very moment the roses, that I got from the "Flowerman" in Dayton, completely fell apart as we unwrapped them. I was handling the situation just fine until the text picture of the restaurant came 20 minutes before our scheduled time at the hall. They eventually showed up (on time) and I stopped crying! From there it was smooth sailing!

 

We take 5 cars full of stuff and everyone goes to the hall. I am relieved when I see Julio pull in.. who hurried after my recent "FREAKOUT" (about the flowers and the NOT SO FUNNY joke!) The hall BEEOCH was a half hour late to let us in the hall and doesn't turn on the heat.. anyway we go in the banquet center and everyone worked very hard at decorating the tables, the new walls, the decorations, the music equipment. Jill and Emma were there when I arrived and Amber wasn't far behind, picking up the cakes.  My sweet fiance left a little early for his bachelor party.. which I have pictures of for proof! Anyway we all decorate and get out of there after inhaling 4 pizzas that Amber went to get for us! We go back to the house and much of the food prep began about 10:00 PM.

 

The next morning.. was the day! The big day! I started out with a cup of coffee and a good plan to drink it! Julio and his Mom head for the salon. Me, Kelly and Dad make the bouquet and I lost track of time. Eventually, I make it to the salon for my Do! It takes forever and I am still there at 3:30, just finishing

up when Amber comes in and I send her to get my hairpiece. She comes back and says that I am late and Mom 

and Dad and Julio were freaking out about my whereabouts. Finally I left the salon and went home to find my Dad in the garage, in his tux, tapping his watch, my Mom in the kitchen dressed up with no place to go, Yolanda, ready to go and my wonderful Julio pouring us both a shot of tequila! Amber asked me how she should do her hair. (20 minutes before we were supposed to be there) and I didn't even have my dress out of the bag. Thank God my Mom was there to put me together! Needless to say I made it to the wedding a little late, but I did make it there.

We get there and I am told by Kelly to stay in the car, since the rain had already squooshed my new hair do... I wait patiently for about 20 seconds, then I get out. When I finally got to go inside with Dad walking me down the aisle, I could see first how beautiful the place looked, then Julio waiting up front (yeah, he showed up!)! I look up and see my brother Kenny video taping and he gives me the sweetest smile, then the "preacher man" dismisses my Dad like he wasn't even there. (We forgot to invite the "preacher man" to rehearsal)! The preacher is saying something like bla bla bla and I hear Emma say... "somebody's getting married" and I can't help myself from giggling a little. Emma did a great job! Then it gets serious.. the vow's, which we hadn't heard before. Luckily they were perfectly acceptable and we moved through the "I will's" and we are finally married! Let the fun begin!

 

The reception! The nicest reception I've ever even heard about. The place looked amazing. When we arrived, all of our family and friends were there to greet us! It was breathtaking. I can't even begin to put enough thanks out there for what everyone did for us. The most delicious food by Scott, Robyn, Mom, Dad and Yolanda. The cake from Mom and Dad. The music by my niece Nikki, Scott and Robyn. The gorgeous wall of lights made by Dad and Scott.. that was just beautiful! The table decorations and Balloon Bride and Groom, by Yolanda. Kelly coordinating people where they were supposed to be, when they were supposed to be there. She even caught our cake topper before it fell to the floor! Chris helped me through several "wedding meltdowns"! Jill was everywhere with the video camera. Everyone taking pictures. Ryan, Scott and others bartending and putting up with my drunk Russian friend. Amber seemed to always be on errands to pick up and drop off things and people! We have to thank the Best Man for all his support through this... (especially the bachelor party, right baby?) Bob for all his help with everything and the alcohol. Sandy, for helping with the alcohol consumption! :) Scott, you really should be a wedding planner.. you are awesome! 

 

If we haven't said Thank You to everyone.... THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH!  Julio and I are so happy and grateful for everything you did to make our day absolutely perfect! I'm still a little overwhelmed by it all. The best gift of all is that you were all there to celebrate the beginning of our new life! And to Julio, who has completely changed my world...

 

Thanks for marrying me!

To The Editor

You site is racist. Not all blacks are muslims nor are stupid. I don't think it is fair or equal either. I don't like that this site makes fun of blacks, the some talk, while you try to mock or verbally replace letters of words to creat a racial bias is grating on my nerves. Just because you are a "non comercial" site does not mean you cant be sued. This site makes me sick, and I for one will not visit it again! Your politics are wrong, you are a racist group, you are a small people shallow bunch of idiots! People like you is what is wrong with our country! When you wake up to the fact that there are other kinds of people, disabilities, poor, and hard working, youor site does not recondize, I will come back and visit. But untill then I WILL NOT DO IT!

Annomous

Annomous,

You are back! Again, I don't know what to say. If you cannot agree to your terms, I can not help or be responsible for what you will read in our paper and or Blog! I think you would be better off to stand clear because I think it's clouding up! A storm may be heading your way. I do not feel you are prepared for a storm, but if you want to get your feet wet, write in again!

From Kelly to Janice

Janice, I read you're article asking who the insane, immature 20 year old is. I think I am not going to reveal that (yet anyway), even though I said, "all you have to do is ask." due to the fact that, I do have respect for her Mother. Believe me, I would love to just tell you and the world. I'm not sure what I am going to do about it, but, I AM going to do something. The 20 year old WAS my favorite niece until this event. I always new she was about herself, but, I didn't know she would go that low. (Pathetic isn't it?) Honestly, I think she acted like that because, there were two kids there and she wanted all the attention. (There is no other explanation.) How sad is that?" Laurie told me she wanted Abby there 2 months prior to the wedding and Emma (the flower girl) well, she was the flower girl. I know it is very sad to see an adult treat a child like that. It looks to me that the 20 year old acted more like a child then Abby or Emma. But, Janice, think about it, there were only a couple 20 yr olds there. You can figure it out. To the 20 yr old, if you are reading this, there are doctors for that and......THAT WAS NOT YOU'RE WEDDING!

As a trucker stops for a red light, a blonde catches up. She jumps out of her car, runs up to his truck, and knocks on the door. The trucker lowers the window, and she says "Hi, my name is Heather and you are losing some of your load." The trucker ignores her and proceeds down the street.
When the truck stops for another red light, the girl catches up again.
She jumps out of her car, runs up and knocks on the door. Again, the trucker lowers the window. As if they've never spoken, the blonde says brightly, "Hi my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"
Shaking his head, the trucker ignores her again and continues down the street. At the third red light, the same thing happens again. All out of breath, the blonde gets out of her car, runs up, knocks on the truck door. The trucker rolls down the window Again she says "Hi, my name is Heather, and you are losing some of your load!"

When the light turns green the trucker revs up and races to the next light. When he stops this time, he hurriedly gets out of the truck, and runs back to the blonde. He knocks on her window, and after she lowers it, he says... "Hi, my name is Kevin, its winter in Cleveland I'm driving the SALT TRUCK!"

The Thing About

Our Blog

by Scott Boden

_____________________________________________________________

We thought our Blog would be a great thing. Everyone could say hello everyday, share an opinion about something, express a political view and the like. But, our Blog has been all that and so mich more.

As it turns out, I think I will put a

rating on it. For Mature Audiences Only.

Our Blog seems a little racy and political and vicious and once in a while, mean to the limited and ignorant. But it is funny and believe it or not, it is all good natured!.

I have received some email from a lot of you who express it is our right to be white and proud. I agree. We can't be white and not proud, like the other races in our country want us to be, that would be discrimination against ourselves.

Qur site is an equal oportunity website. Apparently, we take every oportunity to bash people, religion, race, the

politcally challenged, liberal, oh we seem to love liberals, democrats, republicans and yes the bleeding hearts. We as a group, or pack, if you will, love to see or hear a victim cryabout something. Just come on in and cry about something and find out!

We like to be honest and forthcoming! But we love the jokes the most. If you are the joke, may you have thick skin, a fast and funny response and a good sense of humor!

Our site will always offer the victim, the oppressed, and the bleeding hearts the same space for someone to point out the errors of their ways, I mean you can have the same space to protect your views. We all would love to read it!

Editor,

Someone finally said it.

 

How many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans,

Mexican Americans,

Asian Americans,

Arab Americans,

Native Americans, etc.

...And then there are just - 

Americans.

 

You pass me on the street

and sneer in my direction.

You Call me "White boy,"

"Cracker," "Honkey,"

"Whitey," "Caveman,"

... And that's OK.

 

But when I call you Nigger,

Kike, Towel head,

Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey,

Beaner, Gook, or Chink

... You call me a racist.

 

You say that whites commit a lot

of violence against you,

so why are the ghettos the most

dangerous places to live?

 

You have the United Negro College Fund.

You have Martin Luther King Day.

You have Black History Month.

You have Cesar Chavez Day.

 You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi.  

 You have the NAACP.

And you have BET.

 

If we had WET

(White Entertainment Television)

... We'd be racists.

 

If we had a White Pride Day

... You would call us racists.

 

If we had White History Month

... We'd be racists.

 

If we had any organization for only whites

to "advance" OUR lives  

... We'd be racists.

 

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce,

a Black Chamber of Commerce,

and then we just have the plain

Chamber of Commerce.

Wonder who pays for that?

 

If we had a college fund that only gave

white students scholarships

... You know we'd be racists.

 

There are over 60 openly-proclaimed

Black-only Colleges in the US ,

 yet if there were "White-only Colleges"

... THAT would be a racist college.

 

In the Million Man March,

you believed that you were

marching for your race and rights.

If we marched for our race and rights,

... You would call us racists.

 

You are proud to be black,

brown, yellow and orange,

and you're not afraid to announce it.

But when we announce our white pride  

 

... You call us racists.

 

You rob us,

carjack us,

and shoot at us.

But, when a white police officer

shoots a black gang member

or beats up a black drug-dealer

who is running from the LAW and

posing a threat to ALL of society

... You call him a racist.

 

I am proud.

... But, you call me a racist.

 

Why is it that only

whites

can be racists?

I Like It

One Change at a Time Healthy Tip

Letters to the Editor

I Like It

by Scott Boden

******************************************************************

Whether you agree or not, is not the most important thing! Even if you get pissed off, is not the most important thing. What is important however, is the fact that you can do one of two things. The first thing is obvious, you can just quit. Not participate. Be a victim! Take your toys and go home. Spread lies about me or the site, and just brute to all your friends and to yourself, maybe even cry yourself to sleep. I Like it!

 

Contrary to those who get offended here on our site, which by the way, is NOT the goal of our humor, editorials, political satire, family gatherings, submissions, jokes, photos, comments and yes, even the blog. We do not discriminate to any group, handicap (unless   your handicap is stupidity), Mexican, black, liberal, white, religion, conservative, democrat or republican and to those that this pisses off, we don’t discriminate against you! All groups get the same treatment. And I like it!

 

If you feel as a group, individual, race, political ticket, left wing, right wing, handicap, disability, intelligence, good writer or bad writer that you have been a victim or offended by anything on our site, you have rights.

 

You have the right to send a letter to the Editor, write an article on your views, photo chop pictures, and express your opinion in any way you feel gets the most attention to your cause, standing or belief.

 

If you choose to use one of the avenues above, and I do not publish your response or belief, expression, and or view, there are still steps you can take to make your point available to all our readers. One-you can tell everyone in our blog that I will not give you equal time to your cause, and two- you can send your article, objection and belief to another Editor of our site which is clearly stated on the Contact Us page.

 

IF I do not publish an article you have written to the Editor, before your skirt blows up check and make sure you sent it in, and check to make sure I have published a new edition. There would be no reason for me NOT to publish something like that but as this is NOT a commercial site, and time is limited, publications are not regular!

IF you have been offended by anything

I or anyone has written, implied, photo, photo chop, belief, or even of you have been upset because of any reason, and DO NOT write in, then there is nothing anyone can do to help you. If you have been upset or offended as a third party and DO NOT write in, there is nothing anyone can do.

 

You can always write a letter to the Editor and use another name if you choose not to use your own if you feel this would be better for you! Our goal here is to give every group, handicap (unless your handicap is stupidity), Mexican, black, liberal, white, religion, conservative, democrat or republican and anyone race or belief equal time and space, I Like It!

 

Having said all this, if you choose to fly off the handle, act all offended, be obnoxious and become a victim, and ignore to use your rights of equal time and space in an attempt to express yourself, belief, religion, political standing or explain your position in any way, you may become the focal point to the conservatives, liberals, Mexicans, whites, blacks, religions, democrats, republicans, humans in general and to me!

 

If you do not offer a rebuttal or another side to a disagreement, political satire, religious belief, formal or not, on any subject or if you feel an argument is beneath you, then you live in a bubble, with your head in the sand. You have no known reason why you feel a certain way, and you are not knowledgeable on the subject matter. This is NOT our fault! And it is NOT my fault, and you know that I will Like It!

 

This site is to make one chuckle, have a laugh, and reminisce about the past. To be intrigued, enlightened, spared from the daunting daily tasks of life for a few minutes. So please enjoy your visit and   humor even tho at times I can be an ass, enjoy the humor of the others, the views and satires, but most important of all, enjoy free press!

One Change at a Time

Healthy Tip

by Christina Prater

___________________________________________

  If you are like me I think healthier from time to time but if it would only stop before the hips I would be better off.  So as I try to change bad habits I try to do one change at a time.  It really was working until I stopped thinking about it.  Then the old habits come right back in.  If anyone out there has a better Idea on how good changes can stick please share them.

 

My tip for the day is   Breads  I love to eat at resurants once in a while. First I love them because I didn't make them,,so I know they will be delicious.  But to think healthier you must stop and be wise and not let your stomach be the only guide.  If you must, ask for  plain bread with that delicious one.  Plan on when to take one only one bite of that delicious one and then finish with the plain one.  I usually start with the plain one and only half of one at that, (50)calories per half a plain piece. If you put butter on it its another 100 calories a Tablespoon) then finish with

that one delicious bite in about 4 tiny savory yummy finish, to equal one bite.  Oh the calories and fat you will save.  Make sure you do treat your self to just a taste of that savory speciality butter, if you just go very slow at the tasting you don't suffer all those pounds and still get a chance at the flavor.  Good luck.  I am tring to only consume no more than 400 calories per meal.   There is a great calorie counter I bought from Calorie king I lost 10 pounds just counting and keeping track of these calories and the book lets you eat at resturants and you can still count. Remember one bite of that really delicious stuff still helps you eat it and enjoy but a very smaller healthier you will emerge.

This is why women should not take men shopping against their will.

After Mr and Mrs. Fenton retired, Mrs. Fenton insisted her husband accompany her on her trips to Wal- Mart.

Unfortunately, Mr. Fenton was like most men--he found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out. Equally unfortunately, Mrs.Fenton was like most women-she loved to browse.

One day Mrs. Fenton received the following letter from her local Wal- Mart:

Dear Mrs. Fenton,
Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and may be forced to ban both of you from the store. Our complaints against Mr. Fenton are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras.

1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking.

2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in House Wares to go off at 5-minute intervals.

3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom.

4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice, 'Code 3 in House Wares. Get on it right away.'

5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&M's on layaway.

6. September 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.

7. September 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department.

8. September 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'

9. October 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.

10. November 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.

11. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while loudly humming the 'Mission Impossible' theme.

12. December 6: In the auto department, he practiced his 'Madonna look' by using different sizes of funnels.

13. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!'

14. December 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed, 'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!'

And last, but not least....

15. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here.'

To the Editor

I am referring to the letter Robyn wrote to the editor. Anyone out there who has been keeping up on the "poems" understands that there really is stupid people out in this world. It seems that these people are obsessed with Obama and just couldn't take the heat from all the controversy from each one of us smart people who doesn't give two sh-ts about Obama (who, will eventually ruin us to no end if elected.) So, with that being said, the pouting started and "Sybil" came out in these people and then all the threats started, from them. It was like a "boo hoo" situation. We keep telling them to take those stupid poems and go, GO, GO. But, it seems like they just keep coming back for more. I don't get it. So, NOW, we ar! e stuck telling smart people that if you give something to the Editor to post then it's HIS. DUH! So, Robyn if that's what we have to do to never go through this extreme crybaby stuff then that's what we will do. Great Idea! Now, I will say that Bodensonline.com has my permission to use this material on the website. "You can have it forever."

Running Out Of Gas

A man was driving down the road and ran out of gas. Just at that moment, a bee flew in his window.

The bee said, "What seems to be the problem?"
"I'm out of gas," the man replied.
The bee told the man to wait right there and flew away. Minutes later, the man watched as an entire swarm of bees flew to his car and into his gas tank. After a few minutes, the bees flew out.
"Try it now," said one bee.
The man turned the ignition key and the car started right up. "Wow!" the man exclaimed, "what did you put in my gas tank"?
The bee answered,

Blog Etiquette

Had Tears In My Eye's

History  Mystery

Letters to the Editor

Blog Etiquette

by Scott Boden

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

As the blog has become very popular it is important that some etiquette be used as a standard.

 

First off, I think that it is necessary to watch the language. We have an open forum so any subject may come up at any time and that is a great thing! However, any child can get on the blog so if your 8 or 9 year old gets on, then reads some bad language, or subject matter, then blurts out a line he or she has read to their teacher, preacher or a parent, may be cause to limit the subject matter to an adult level so your child doesn’t learn things before their time and need!

 

Punctuation is another thing. It is difficult to follow what someone is typing, unless it is only one sentence, but if it is a paragraph, following it takes awhile, (unless you are the writer of the paragraph). Subject matter becomes spoiled because

sometimes it takes too long to break apart the sentences to get the meaning or where the author is coming from. Sometimes we can get two meanings without punctuation from the same paragraph!  Please make it easy on everyone and use a comma, a period and some other minor things every once and awhile!

 

And thirdly, have fun, laugh and be open. Don’t get all upset if you read something that is not your belief. The main objective here is fun. Please, Don’t lose sight of that!

John F. Kennedy  was elected to Congress in 1946.
Abraham Lincoln was  elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected  President in 1960.
Both were particularly concerned  with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while  living in the White House.
Both Presidents were shot  on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head  

Now it gets really weird.

Lincoln 's secretary was  named Kennedy.

What A Game

I love to play Hearts. On the computer is easier than if you were playing three other live people at a table, but still, to get zero points is the best the game can be!
Computer Hearts is rigged. When the computer wants to win, there is nothing you can do, but on the flip side, when you are going to win, you can take wild chances and WIN!

To whom it may concern, I have recently visited your web site and I find it completely appalling. You don’t seem to understand what the African American has to go through to be successful in today’s society. Let me start by telling you a little about me. I grew up in a one parent home; I have never met my father. My mother and Aunt raised me; we lived in a poor neighborhood that you probably wouldn’t even drive thru. I had to work delivering papers when I was twelve to help pay for groceries. I have struggled furiously my whole life and people like you just take it for granted. My growing up was not easy, I worked hard all through high school and college. I have worked for years at the same company seeing many people getting promoted for no good reason. They didn’t work hard, they didn’t care about anyone but themselves, they treated many people like me as substandard and different. And for years they would overlook people like me because we weren’t the bosses buddy, we were just bodies doing a job. After fifteen years of watching the “white class” get promoted I decided that I would start doing what they were doing. I occasionally would invite the owner out for lunch, and started talking to him everyday. It took a year of kissing his ass to move up the ladder. I am now the vise president of internet sales and the only reason I got here was not because I worked hard but because I kissed ass to a white man. You see, you people don’t have to struggle with that. You’re already equal and Obama is going to change this. You sit and laugh at him because he’s black; well if that’s where your pathetic mind is you are most ignorant. May I say this also; His preacher knows more about this country than you people seem to know. I thank God everyday for Obama because he’s going to change you white folks. There won’t ever be a more powerful black man. He will put a stop to Corporations and Unions that keep people down. And if you think your little pathetic website will still be here, think again, I’ve already forwarded it to Mr. Jackson and by next month you’ll be gone and you’ll have taken a lot of law suits with you. So you keep slandering the black man and keep jading Obama and we’ll see who has the last laugh. Sincerely, Samuel Ruth Vice President of Internet Sales

Samuel,

Thanks for writing. For being educated, you sure took a long time to figure out that you have to be kind to your boss, show some inititive, take charge of your life, maybe enjoy it some. It took you 15 years of hiding in your cubicle, bad mouthing the establishment you should be loyal too, and all you had to do was be considerate! You poor oppressed sorry excuse of an American! Oh and by the way, your hero Rev. Jackson is only like he is is because he is in America. No other country would put up with such stupidity. We allow him his right to free press, ignorance and well, because he amuses the hell out of me!

Dear Mr. Ruth,

 

Forgive me, but I am finding it hard to muster much sympathy for your plight. You imply that all “white folks” are born with a silver spoon in their mouths. I hate to disillusion you, but you are incredibly naive or brainwashed. Have you ever been a white woman in corporate America? Well, I have and I have experienced all the disappointments and missed opportunities of which you speak. I have been told “women can’t manage other women”, “women can’t make intelligent or reliable decisions because they are too emotional” and “well, you know, she can’t help it, she is a woman and on top of that, she is blonde”. You don’t know it, but you have a distinct advantage over me just because you have a penis.

 

You imply that just because I am Caucasian that I have never had to work hard. Well, once again you are wrong. I have held a job for the last thirty one years, since I was fourteen years old. I worked fulltime while I raised my children and worked fulltime while I attended college fulltime. I spent over four years surviving on little more than two or three hours of sleep per night, just so that I could earn that degree that would possibly allow me to get promoted. I have been stepped on and stepped over. If this is still happening to you I would suggest you search for a new employer. There are firms out there that do not care about your gender or race, only that you can do the job better than the next person. I have finally found a position with a company with such a philosophy. I have never resorted to brown nosing or any other such nonsense to get ahead. I always felt if I could not do it on my own merits, I did not want to get ahead.

 

So being a member of a discriminated minority, do I see the Democratic Party as my savior? Hell NO! This party has no morals. This party protects the rights of criminals while ignoring the rights of the unborn. This party believes in big government as a solution to all our ills and expects me to support it with a large percentage of my paycheck. This party supports entitlements while mocking the rewards of hard work and self sustenance. This party views corporations and the wealthy as enemies of the state instead of recognizing the fact that they are the foundation of our economy. Without either, we will find ourselves living in a third world country. This party believes it knows how to raise my children better than I do. This party wants to take my right to bear arms while forgetting that the criminal does not worry about breaking the law while he is packing. If you require specific examples to support my claims, feel free to ask. I will be more than happy to accommodate you.

 

Regarding Obama’s saintly Reverend Wright, the man is a verbal terrorist. He slams such individuals as Condeleeza Rice and Colin Powell by calling them turncoats. He should be holding them up as examples of achievement and success. I don’t believe that success is ever found at the bottom of a bottle or at the end of a crack pipe. Do we “white folks” tell our children, “For heaven’s sake, don’t turn out like Bill Gates! What a turncoat to our race! He is wealthy and powerful!”? Sounds silly doesn’t it? Reverend Wright only disdains these individuals because if he doesn’t keep his people down he’ll be out of a job. Who would listen to his rhetorical B.S. if they were happy with their station in life?

 

I see red when I hear him say “God Damn America” and that America is reaping what it sowed because of the bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Did the idiot miss history class? Does he not know who attacked who at Pearl Harbor? I really don’t understand why you liberals are always bad mouthing America because we have to finish what we DID NOT start. Bullies have to be stopped, whether they are on the local playground or in the world arena.

 

Anyone in America can be as successful as she or he chooses. We have free public education and free public libraries. Knowledge is abundant in our wonderful country; only the desire for it is in pitiful lack. To learn does not take a lot of money, better buildings or a larger sports program, it takes a thirst and a love of learning. This love is taught at home. Our society is declining because of the decline in the family unit and values. It takes two parents to raise a child, “not a community”. It takes commitment and stern discipline, not Ridilin.

 

To sum up, quit whining about your problems and solve them. Be responsible for your actions and your destiny.
