2005 GOING OUT WITH A BANG
It would appear that Rain, Wind, Mudslides, Volcanos, Snow Storms and Wild Fires will be in the news as 2005 comes to a close. It only brings you to the fact that we are really not in charge. It has been one heck of a ride so far. I look forward to seeing what 2006 has to offer...I thank God for the Blessings along the journey.

MANDATORY DRUG SCREENING

Every January, New Regulations or Laws Take Affect.
Small Businesses sometime bare the cost of this without Government reimbursment or assistance. In an effort to be more cost effective at your company. We suggest you comply with the regulations but save money on containers. Just use the same one. Let the Government sort out the samples. It just said TAKE THEM AND SEND THEM TO THE LAB.
NEW YEAR'S DAY 2006
The New Year's Day fall on the " Lords Sabbath" It falls on a Sunday. Sabbath means REST. "On the seventh day the Lord rested". Why don't you remember this, on this first New Day of the New Year that you too rest.Now I know that there are those that will say that Sunday is the first day of the week and Saturday is the seventh day of the week, to you I say "GIVE IT A REST!" Sadducees.
BE AT PEACE, WITH GOD AND HIS CREATION AND MOST OF ALL WITH YOURSELF.
YEAR GONE BYE 2005
I try not to take anything too seriously but the past year has been one for the records. We have survived a pretty turbulent era in this world's history. We do not know what 2006 has in store for us. Though the year has been destructive in terms of lives and fortunes, we go on together. If we try to hold on to what good has come from this past year, we will make it. We are at the summit. We look back and we thank God that we are still here to reflect. We thank Him for our blessings and we look forward to His protection in the future. Let us continue to sojourn together. HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE.

CHESTNUTS ROASTING ON MY OPEN FORD
The Christmas Holiday was great, with just one small glitch. It would seem that Dan's car (My car) caught fire on the way back to his dorm. He called his brother (not the rocket scientist) and asked advice on the smoke coming in the car. Did he stop and try to figure it out? NO! Just keep on driving and see what happens. Did he call home to ask advice on what to do? NO! He did call home after the event to ask for REPAIR money. Seems he forgot that this was origanally Dad's work car, that he aquired after his sister crashed (totaled) the other car that I had given them for college. One car crashed on the first day of college, and one car fried at the end of college. Seems like Dan will be walking in the New Year. He is not getting my truck. He is getting a job. What will the New Year Bring?

I DON'T BELIEVE WE ARE IN KANSAS ANYMORE
When you look at this peaceful face, please try to remind yourself that the water temp is just above freezing and the Candidate probably can't feel his hands anymore.....He is probably hypothermic and is hallucinating that he is on a sunny tropical beach being shot at which would be easier than this.....
WHEN I WAS A CHILD
When I was a young man, I lived in a development that had previously been an apple orchard. We could walk around and just pick apples to our hearts content and no one minded. At the end of the growing season, the wind would dump the uneaten bounty on the ground. It was here that Mother Nature would soften them for us. We used to have the most assume "rotten" apple fights. You haven't lived until you have been hit in the ear with a rotten apple. We would walk through the woods and our friends would lay in wait to ambush us with tons of slippery, slimy, smelly , rotten apples. I think back on all my memories and smile...I was a good shot.
Michelle or Shelly
This is Michelle. Michelle wants to be a Marine. Michelle asked my help to get into the Marines. Michelle is now in OCS. Michelle will probably never speak to me again. Don't ask or wish for things you don't want....you might get them. Keep that in mind this Christmas Season. Merry Christmas Shelly.

Old Memories

I'm just going to have to hang out for awhile and figure out what to do without a camera..My old camera is in need of some minor repair also so I guess I'm just out of luck for now. That is the story of my life, just hanging around waiting for the right picture. You think you have it all figured out and bam! The dang batteries go haywire or something. Even my movie camera is limited...It has just been one of those days...Please Keep Camera Comments Kind.
GOOD NEWS BAD NEWS
The Bad News is that I won't get to take any pictures this Christmas or at Dan's Graduation tomorrow because I just broke my $1200.00 camera tonight. The Good News is that Sony will repair it for free but it has to be shipped to Texas. So my camera gets to go away for the holidays but I have to stay here...I hope to have it fixed before Rachel's Wedding in January or how else would you get to see me in a Tux. This is Gabriel for those of you who are wondering. He's an angel, and he gets to travel too....

3. Find the 5th sentence, or closest to it: "Old Potty Chair Boquet."
4. Post the text of the sentence in your blog along with these instructions. Ponder it for meaning, subtext or hidden agendas. I have ponder its meaning. It means there are flowers in an old Potty Chair. The subtext of this is as follows: No matter what you put in a potty chair, its original purpose was to collect crap and it still does. The hidden meaning is: My crap doesn't stink!

Captain Jack Sparrow

Last month I kinda felt like this at times.
I will attempt to be a nicer person and not live such a hectic life for the rest of this year. I'm tired of getting a lump of coal for Christmas. Who am I kidding! I just want to start this month off with a bang! At least I will be able to heat the house with the coal...
