Nobody Gets Email: Why I carry a Gun

Nobody Gets Email: Thanks to om Beebe this week on a subject that we must all keep in mind...As long as we have our guns...we have a chance.

I'm not too bad with Wasp Spray either! Thanks for the emails everyone...keep em coming, I appreciate them all!

PEOPLE ASK WHY? Why I Carry a Gun

My old grandpa said to me 'Son, there comes a time in every man's life
when he stops bustin' knuckles and starts bustin' caps and usually it's
when he becomes too old to take an ass whoopin.'
I don't carry a gun to kill people.
I carry a gun to keep from being killed.
I don't carry a gun to scare people.
I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.
I don't carry a gun because I'm paranoid.
I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.
I don't carry a gun because I'm evil.
I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the world.
I don't carry a gun because I hate the government.
I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government.
I don't carry a gun because I'm angry.
I carry a gun so that I don't have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared.
I don't carry a gun because I want to shoot someone.
I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.
I don't carry a gun because I'm a cowboy.
I carry a gun because, when I die and go to heaven, I want to be a cowboy.
I don't carry a gun to make me feel like a man.
I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love.
I don't carry a gun because I feel inadequate.
I carry a gun because unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am inadequate.
I don't carry a gun because I love it.
I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me.
Police protection is an oxymoron.
Free citizens must protect themselves.
Police do not protect you from crime, they usually just investigate the crime
after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.
Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to take an ass whoopin'.....author unknown (but obviously brilliant)

You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians
disseminating this information.
Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes,
gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.
Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!
The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind them of this history lesson.
With guns, we are 'citizens'. Without them, we are 'subjects'.
During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they
knew most Americans were ARMED!
If you value your freedom, please spread this anti gun-control message to all of your friends.
The purpose of fighting is to win.
There is no possible victory in defense.
The sword is more important than the shield, and
skill is more important than either.
The final weapon is the brain.
All else is supplemental.
Switzerland issues every household a gun!
Switzerland's government trains every adult they issue a rifle.
Switzerland has the lowest gun related crime rate of any civilized country in the world!!!
It's a no brainer!
Don't let our government waste millions of our tax dollars in an effort to make all law abiding citizens an easy target.
I'm a firm believer in the 2nd Amendment!
If you are too, please forward.

Sheik Obama...Celebrating His Own

Nobody Reports:

Today, it seems to many Americans across the land, that our "President" has joined hands with his favored people, and it's not us.

He gave a big White House dinner celebrating Ramadan... with a big circus of people who have NO tolerance for America...who wish to take us over.

When was the last time he denounced the action of 9/11? I don't even remember if he ever did, do you?

I found this poster on the net, and normally, I would have thought it to strong to post...but tonight...I actually think it doesn't go far enough.

I don't think we can continue to be patient with such an impostor in the White House. Some say, we must be patient...because of the RESPECT of the office itself.

The office is disappearing right before our eyes

I say, BECAUSE we respect the office...we must attack this illegal President verbally with every American argument we can foster. Freedom is nowhere to be found in the Muslim religion or culture, and when our President supports it with open arms, he slaps freedom in the face, and every man or woman who lost their lives on 9/11.

I tell you what...Allah can have him.

Here's a Hint: Open Your Eyes When Wearing Goggles

Nobody Flashes: I was swimming in my local pool today when I ran into the future...I.E..a "college" student. And since I'm a strong believer in furthering my own knowledge, and since the subject usually discussed in the "adult swim," which consists of my 4 over-65 females friends whose favorite subject is their dental care and dishwasher units, I was more than ready for any change in conversation.

"So, do you go to school?"

"Yeah, I'm going to Columbia University."

"What are you studying?"

"Physics."

Needless to say, my only knowledge of physics and contemplation thereof, pretty much pertains to why my basement stairs are getting steeper--- but did that detain me from continuing? NO!

"So--- what do you think of global warming?" I asked while I pushed up my water goggles.

I will not repeat what he said, but he pretty much sounded like Al Gore. ..the ozone level is being destroyed due to greenhouse gases, and any argument against that is simply political and not based on science.

"Gee, I've heard other scientists say the opposite. You know, as a rule of thumb, it's always good to check out both sides of every opinion and then use your common sense."

"Well, he said, all the scientists say so, there are no scientists to refute it."

Wow...it's worse than I thought.

"Really?...Let me ask you this; If the earth wobbled, as it does every ten thousand years or so, don't you think that would affect the planet?"

"Actually, no...because of the relationship that the moon has to the earth affects it's wobble, so would be so very minor...in fact, this happens all the time..."

The boy thinks the earth is wobbling all the time? I should call up my car insurance agent.

By this time, you could tell the kid was getting mad. But did I stop? Oh NO! Not me.

"So, you're telling me..that if the earth did tilt on its axis, even by a small degree, that would not affect the weather at all?"

"That's not what I said." he replied, feeling a trap.

"Well gee...I don't know much about physics, but if I even take a broken glass, and try to start a fire, just a tilting of the glass and it's angle to the earth makes a lot of difference in the outcome, so logic says that if the earth titled, say...just a little, it would certainly affect the weather a little."

My new friend said...nothing, "I need to swim."

"Yeah, me too." I said.

Of course, I was obviously a frigging moron to this young guy, who , by the way was also bragging about his finesse in the water...showing off his "strength " and swimming skills. He felt strong and invincible...ahhhh to remember that feeling again. And he was almost cocky about how good he swam, but did I let him have that illusion?

Are you kidding? If you dropped me into the Dead Sea would I not float?

Knowing that he had been completely brainwashed by our US educational system , I told him that Navy Seals would be required to swim two full lengths underwater. After all, he bragged about how he could do a dolphin kick without coming up for breath, because he showed me.
So, I told him since he was such a strong swimmer, he should try it..swim underwater one lap.

"But, I will have to use my hands."" he said.

"Well....yeah." Good god, maybe this guy should enlist.

"Of course, you might not make it, because it takes more than swimming talent, you must have good lungs." Something his scientific mind did not yet compute. He made it down one length of the pool, then pooped out...because, he said...he was tired.

Poor kid. I had shattered his image of himself. I didn't mean to. I meant it as something for his to strive for...that there is always another latter to climb, that you never stop learning....but that's not how he took it.

So, reprimanding myself for torturing the poor kid, I told myself.."Joyanna, go back to swimming, quit bugging this poor kid, remember what happened to Socrates." and I was at the deep end of the pool...just lying on my back. floating...thinking about the clear blue sky...and how I had only one more day to enjoy the pool...and then BAM!!!

I felt a painful knock on my head, which put me underwater and gasping for air. The kid...who had his goggles on was swimming forward had somehow managed to bump full into my head, with great force, even though we were the only two people in the deep end.

Did he do it on purpose? I don't think so...he was just..not used to "thinking." that ---hey, maybe I'd better looked where I'm going.

And that's the point. if you can't see where you are going even with goggles on...you will be very surprised when you bump into a brick wall someday and all what you were taught in school, might not be the truth.

After all, that's what's goggles are for. If you're not going to use them, why put them on?

Somewhere there's a moral in this: but I'm not even attempting to find it. I am in my floating stage...and my goggles are HUGE.

Food Stamps for Bugs--Let them eat Scorpians!

Nobody Wins when a bunch of nincompoop global-warming, skrungy skrilldiggers at the United Nations want to mandate that the world populations stop eating meat...and start eating bugs. Flatulence from cows is destroying the ozone layer they claim...and so therefore, in order to survive we must all start eating ants, crickets, scorpions, and Roast of Roach.

After all, it is reported by them that 80 percent of the planet already eats bugs. (Which explains why the US has been so successful in a nutshell.)

Yesterday, our Congress passed a bill, which was unnamed so you couldn't look it up, to give teachers the safety net of never having to say they are sorry while they collect their big pensions. And to do this, they cut food stamps for millions.

People were....horrified.

And so, I suggest that in order to introduce this new culinary marvel, food stamps from now on, can only be traded for ...eatable bugs. In fact, we should pay our U.N. fees...in bugs...to be redistributed to their various nations in order to save the planet from cow flatulence. I'll even go a step farther and suggest we pay our taxes in bugs. I'd be more than happen to send all my roaches and spiders to Washington D.C., who can redistirbute them to the many starving in Africa and China. It's the least I can do to save the planet.

It is claimed that there is protein in bugs. My question is: how many bugs do you have to eat to get the same amount of protein as you would from an 8oz Porterhouse?

And...do you really want to know? Yeah...me niether.

Glenn Beck, Boxing, and World Soccer

Nobody Cares: (That's me...watching boxing.)

What does Glenn Beck, World Soccer, and ESPN Boxing have in common?

They all work as public emotional release valves.

Most of the world is ready to explode, and some do...as we saw last week with the airline attendant that grabbed the beer and left his job by dramatically sliding down the escape hatch, after telling off the rude passenger what she could do with the rest of her day...

Don't we all want to do just that at least once a day?

BUT.. I'm sure that the "powers" above feel....if we can just "channel" that frustration and anger, order will remain.

When I listen to Glenn Beck tell us that no we are all not crazy, we truly are being "&%^$"...come to Washington and join him in quiet protest" .. he gives us hope. He tells us "we are not alone." But most importantly, he is CONTROLLING the anger, and putting the masses into where the least harm can be done. All of Washington should send him big checks for his service.

And soccer...while a more "sophisticated" sport...it seems to satisfy the anger many of the countries feel about all the other countries...it's a way to go to war, without actually going to war. You put on your country colors and if they win...then you too feel like a champion, and some of that anger just dissipates until...at least the next day. (unless you live in certain places like South America or England)Some of the country's citizens, live lives of quiet desperation...and to compete gives their own lives meaning.

And now...every single night on cable...we are being given...for free...BOXING! And it couldn't have come at a better time. I can't believe at this time in my life..I'm getting hooked on it. While I can't control the fact that a bunch of thugs are ruining our country, I can "displace" my anger into that knockout punch.

And I want them to fight. Fair. And with emotion.

My favorite thing to say is: "QUITE HUGGING EACH OTHER...ANY CLOSER AND YOU WILL NEED VASELINE!"

I really get into it. "Look, he's getting tired, look...look." And it's fun. I'm learning a lot by watching the different fighters, and also learning, they don't fight like they used to.

Tonight, we watched a 1989 heavyweight championship at Las Vegas, where Holyfield won the title from a guy older, and heavier. Holyfield started out with a deliberate hard punch to the champ's groin. And who can forget the Tyson Ear Munch? This fight was two men, standing toe to toe, and just throwing one hard punch after another. You watch some of the fights of today, and the lack of "professionalism" is very noticeable.

So, what does this mean? Fall of the Roman Empire? Bring out the Lions?

I don't know. But, in the past, you had to "pay" to watch a match. Now, the fights are all over the cable, every night.

Howard Cosell, at the end of his life, tried to get boxing outlawed as a barbaric sport.

What he didn't know, is these boxers might just be keeping America's emotions channeled on the fights on TV...instead of on the streets.

And I say: "Bring it on"..I'm tired of programs about meaningless dribble, and the feminization of men. Nobody cares if I happen to think that if there are men willing to get into a small square, and hit another man because they feel compelled and have a talent for it?

Who am I to complain?

Now...dog fights...that's another matter.

Nobody's Perfect: Michelle Antoinette

Nobody's Perfect; Michelle Obama wins the Nobody's Perfect award for last week, I mean...COME ON...no contest there! The whole world was writing about what a rude and obnoxious thing to do when your "subjects" are suffering! Go party in another country,really.

Michelle just took the most expensive vacation ever taken by a first lady in the mist of a "modern depression." I say modern because in the last depression there was no such thing as a credit card...for the banks to get rich off of.

Somebody (bankers) are making a lot of money off of people having no money. Men are just so clever, aren't they?

No matter. Michelle, after being criticized for leaving her poor husband all alone on his birthday, and sending another daughter off to suffer alone at some 'camp'...said that she went to Spain to "comfort" her poor friend whose father had just died. And in order to comfort this friend she booked 40 rooms at the most expensive hotel in Spain, hopped on Air Force One, and just had a grand old time at our expense.

In the meantime, here in America, due to the great expense of Michelle's vacation, they had to shut Yellowstone Park down in order to pay for her trip.

Here we see a starving bear...waiting for his food...food that did NOT come last week due to the fact, all the park rangers were out applying for welfare.

It's a sad world when a first lady does this to her "people," but to abuse the poor bears.

By the way, the picture of Michelle really does her justice....don't you think?

(Nobody makes this stuff up.)

Picture of Marie...c/o media matters.

Alexandria--- Third Wave?

FLASH: This might bore you, but it's important to me....it's just...is.

Nobody's Opinion: A book must be an ice ax to break the frozen sea within us--Franz Kafka

Technology is suppose to make our lives easier. The car, the light bulb...the Internet... we are all excited about these wonderful advancements. But...hey...do you want the good news or the bad news first?

See the picture of this sweet old gentleman and his wife? That's Alvin Toffler and his wife Heidi, and don't let those innocent gazes fool you...they are two of the most dangerous people on the planet.

Why? Because their research and ultimate influence on the world's globalization plans happening right before our eyes, cannot even be measured. For YEARS...they have counseled Kings, Prime Ministers, CEO'S of international companies... and all our Presidents, and most of them have taken their advice. They "predicted" what they named as the "Third Wave of Information age."

This nobody claims, they didn't just predict...they helped socially engineer this tyrannical "Global World." Just the fact that they are adored in China (where they love to live) should tell you something about their intentions.

Right now, the Internet has opened up new worlds...(unless of course you're live in China)But here's the bad news: The third wave of information comes for the elites, not you and me. We are on a "need to know" basis, and a poorly educated populace is better than an educated one.

They wouldn't do that you say? Purposely keep us stupid? Really? How can they do that?

By controlling the knowledge. Google as you know, can already do this.

I once heard Bill Clinton talk about it, how the new gold in the 21st century will be 'Knowledge.' When I first read about the "value" of this new currency in Future Shock many years ago, I thought..."How can that replace money? Or Gold? Knowledge is free at the library, isn't it?"

Silly...I thought.

Here's the good news: Last week, I was listening to Laura Ingram, a conservative talk show host, who had just written a book called,The Obama Diaries, and she was so excited when she was describing the new technology of downloading books on all those new book readers...like the Amazon Kindle, or the I-Pad. She wanted you to download her book of course. And what is so cool is that you could be reading a book and the author could "link" you to a video in any sentence. I'd say that's pretty exciting..

Okay, so what you're problem with advancement of technology Joyanna?

Remember when Tom Hank's big super bookstore put poor Meg Ryan's little tiny family bookstore out of business in the movie, You've Got Mail? Take it a step further.

I just happened to hear a Random House Publisher, Jason Epstein, on Charlie Rose tell us about the future of the book industry, and it's been planned. It's coming, he said, the "reconstituted digital transformation."

Now, the big chain book stores will be going out of business, everyone will just be downloading books. It will be cheaper than buying them, and all the publishing in the world will be done by just a few people...(like him, who have patents on the technology) and of course, a few authors will get very, VERY rich.

With this monopoly, the value of books and knowledge will be...too much for most to afford, And here's the really bad news: only a few men will decide what books will be "published" online.

For years, the price of a college education has gone up so high, only the minorities and the very rich can afford to attend them. The price of books at the colleges are simply...outrageous.
And now, the blue collage middle-class jobs are gone. So, if you do not have a degree, you will end up at a "service" job---period. The middle class which made America so great--- where once most could afford an education, is almost gone here in America. And our public schools are too horrible to even mention. A black child in the early 19th century could get a better education. That's a fact.

And now, the state's budgets are being cut, and libraries will be the first to go. Camden ,N.J. is closing all three libraries and either selling or destroying their 187,00 books.

Remember that...destroying books.

Toffler was right. Knowledge..will become even harder for the general public to get to. If you want to read the latest book, and you can't afford the expensive price at the few remaining book stores, and your local library gets thrown to the heap bill of history, then you will have to buy a Kindle or I-Pad (which is not cheap) and also, sooner or later, pay a monthly fee...just to be able to download. Miss a payment...sorry, no book tonight. The fee, I'm sure will be loaded with taxes...just another expense many of us cannot afford.

And think of the millions that are going to be put out of work. No more inventory, no more "agents", no -more publishing houses, no more librarians...no more book designers, type- casters, whole industry gone...those were his words, not mine.

I come from a long line of book addicts. I like to read a chapter out of four or five books a day. Alvin Toffler said he liked to examine at least ten papers from all over the world a day. Most people will only be able to afford to download one book at a time. How sad for those of us who like to compare and think about more than one subject.

Bill Clinton said that he didn't think books will disappear, and I agree. The rich will hoard them...Google is putting every book ever written in a special vault all for themselves, despite copyright laws. They will be the richest guys on the planet.

But...if there is an EMP attack, and the Internet is taking over by the government...what are you going to do? The book is, after all, in thin air.

Jason told Charlie Rose he got excited about how he could download the whole Beijing library in just a few short hours. I mean, really...Beijing has an exciting library there , Jason?

More good news is: paper will be saved. The bad news is: the population will be dumber, history will be in the hands of a few to spin.

Will this nightmare happen? Maybe not right away...but I see the change already at my local library. When Obama was elected...they redid the whole thing. Shelves upon shelves of sports, and really trivial stuff replaced the old classics. It's as if they want to keep the black population stupid.

So, my advice is: guard those Harry Potter Books...someday they will be worth a lot of money. In fact, if your local library is having a sale, do the world a favor and go stock up. You never know, you might want to open up a book someday when the electrical grid goes down.

The great library of Alexandria was burnt down, much to humanity's loss, so future generation might thank us for preserving the knowledge that we have so far.
