Why Why Why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When the National Enquirer reported on July 28th about Jamie Lynn Spears’ pregnancy, lawyer’s for the Nickelodeon star threatened legal action against the publication.
Now, a source at the Enquirer has leaked us the letter Jamie Lynn’s lawyers sent them at the time.
“Ms. Spears is a devout Christian with a spotless reputation, who lives in accordance with the highest moral and ethical standards in accordance with her faith.
There is no “rumor” concerning Ms. Spears’ (non-existent) pregnancy, except perhaps for the baseless “rumor” just now being created by the National Enquirer.
Ms. Spears is not pregnant. It is pathetic for the National Enquirer to attempt to create a wholly baseless “rumor” that Ms. Spears is pregnant, so it can run a malicious story and false story which would be emotionally devastating to a morally upright 16 year old girl.”
This really pisses me off!!!!!! Not the fact that she has made a mistake.
THE FACT THAT THE NATIONAL ENQUIRERS PUBLICIST WOULD HAVE TO BRING CHRIST INTO THIS AS A CHARACTER REFERENCE WHERE ONE IS DEFINITELY NEEDED ONLY CHRIST IS NOT HERE TO SPEAK ON HER BEHALF. That would be like me running for president and saying I am a devout "Reaganite and live in accordance with the stickiest Reaganomics!" Wait, they are doing that too!
Character is not what you say or anyone says for you, it is what you do when no one is looking. The only problem is, it is kind of hard to tell someones character if no one is looking!
I knew it! Maybe?
Ron Paul Lies About Lack Of Involvement With White Nationalists
Comrades:
I have kept quiet about the Ron Paul campaign for a while, because I didn’t see any need to say anything that would cause any trouble. However, reading the latest release from his campaign spokesman, I am compelled to tell the truth about Ron Paul’s extensive involvement in white nationalism.
Both Congressman Paul and his aides regularly meet with members of the Stormfront set, American Renaissance, the Institute for Historic Review, and others at the Tara Thai restaurant in Arlington, Virginia, usually on Wednesdays. This is part of a dinner that was originally organized by Pat Buchanan, Sam Francis and Joe Sobran, and has since been mostly taken over by the Council of Conservative Citizens.
I have attended these dinners, seen Paul and his aides there, and been invited to his offices in Washington to discuss policy.
For his spokesman to call white racialism a “small ideology” and claim white activists are “wasting their money” trying to influence Paul is ridiculous. Paul is a white nationalist of the Stormfront type who has always kept his racial views and his views about world Judaism quiet because of his political position.
I don’t know that it is necessarily good for Paul to “expose” this. However, he really is someone with extensive ties to white nationalism and for him to deny that in the belief he will be more respectable by denying it is outrageous — and I hate seeing people in the press who denounce racialism merely because they think it is not fashionable.

Follow up...
Thanks to all the respondents on my post about Fireworks. I spoke to a local and found that they sell just as many fireworks for New Years Eve. Coming from a climate which would not be hospitable to such endeavors I could not put the two together. Got it now! Can't wait till the 31st to see how many drunk people kissing catch themselves on fire!

Someone PLEASE?????????????????
Explain this to me!
OK, Independence Day/Fourth of July we have these stands go up that sell fireworks. I understand that, makes perfect sense.
Now why is it that for Christmas all these stands are opened selling fireworks?
Is is like a tradition I missed to light off fireworks to celebrate baby Jesus birth?
I have this strange vision of mangers, fireworks and overalls.
If you can shed some light on this I would really appreciate it!
Thank you...

Player in Attack on Kerrigan Dies at 40
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Brian Sean Griffith, a former bodyguard to figure skater Tonya Harding who admitted a role in the attack on her rival Nancy Kerrigan during Olympics tryouts, has died. He was 40.
Griffith died Wednesday of what his doctor reported as natural causes, according to the Washington County medical examiner's office. The specific cause of death is expected to be listed when the doctor files a death certificate, which could take two weeks, the medical examiner's office said.
Formerly Shawn Eckardt, Griffith had changed his name since the attack in an attempt to put it behind him.
Griffith, of Beaverton, was Harding's bodyguard when the Portland-born skater competed for a spot on the U.S. Olympic figure skating team in 1994.
That January, an assailant clubbed Kerrigan in the knee, forcing her out of the competition. The International Committee of the U.S. Figure Skating Association granted Kerrigan a spot anyway, and she recovered in time to win a silver medal at the Olympics.
Days after the attack, Griffith confessed, detailing a plan that he and Harding's ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly, had hatched. The investigation also eventually netted convictions of Shane Stant, the actual attacker, and Stant's uncle, Derrick Smith, who drove the getaway car.
Kind of makes you wonder huh?

Broken Hearted
With the announcement of the Mitchell Report today I have to say I was broken hearted. Not because I am a huge baseball fan, I do like baseball, but I am not a "Huge" fan. My son Jackson on the other hand is a "Huge" baseball fan and will sit and "hold it" an entire game just to see every pitch and every swing. Now I have to "Try" and explain to a ten year old what performance enhancement(we wouldn't want to call it something lurid like illegal drug abuse) means? What HGH is? Come on if that isn't shameful enough then I have to explain why Barry Bonds is in court?
Two Words:
This sucks!

A "GEWD" Friend
This is Jeff, he is a great friend and more!
What makes Jeff a great friend is that he is the type of guy who just out of the blue will call you and say "Hey man how are ya? Just thinking about you and wanted to see how you are doin?"
Now that is cool in it of itself, but better yet is that he has this sixth sense to call when you need it most.
The best thing about Jeff is he does not have all the answers, but he does inspire you to be a better person and work to find the answer yourself.
He truly is a great guy and I am so proud to call him friend. I just wish I could do that more often and in person.
Thanks, Love ya bro!

What to get that special someone for Christmas!
There are a ton of things to get that special someone in your life, gold, diamonds and plasma screens all sound good. But what about reserving them a spot in Heaven?

Finally, why roll like a pheasant in Heaven go for the All Access Pass and you will be rolling like a Hilton or P-Diidy!

Morning Run
Every morning I go for a run, well actually a jog. That said living in the country I usually see my fair share of this....
(EGRETS, Awesome birds!)
And then on occasion this....
(Sandhill Cranes, Huge birds which they say are on the verge of extinction, but we have a ton of)
And I even run through a bunch of these...
(SWAMPS)
Today though as I ran I caught out of the corner of my eye a huge cat coming toward me through some brush and as it exited the brush into the open I noticed it was a cat alright, this kind!
Thats right a fairly large Bobcat and it just crossed the side walk then the road and stopped and looked at me before darting into the woods. Kind of freaked me out and then I thought where else can you jog and see such of God's amazing splendor!
Stinkin Kewl!

In Florida We Have Karma, How about you?
MIAMI -- A Florida man police said was breaking into cars at Miccosukee Resort and Gaming was attacked and killed by a 9-foot alligator while trying to run from police.
Investigators said officers responded to reports of car break-ins at a Miccosukee Indian Reservation parking lot located at 500 S.W. 177th Ave. in Miami.
One of the men was quickly captured by officers during the incident last week but the other robbery suspect tried to elude officer by jumping into a large pond behind the facility, according to a WJXT-TV report.
During the swim, police said, an alligator attacked and killed the man. He was apparently bitten on the head several times.
The victim's body was recovered at the bottom of the pond about a day after the reported break-ins.
The men were not identified in the report.
Meanwhile, an alligator believed responsible for attacking and then killing the man was captured and transported to All American Gator in Pembroke Park.
"Some alligators just have a nasty disposition and he was just a nasty gator," owner of All American Gator Brian Woods said. "He seemed to have no fear of people."
The alligator is being kept in storage until the medical examiner's office can inspect the reptile, a trapper said.
Miccosukee employees said the alligator was well-known on the reservation and was given the nickname "Poncho."
"Anytime an alligator digests or even kills a person, it is a state law through the Florida Fish and Game that the gator be destroyed," Woods said.

The Effects of Social Engineering
The home of one child per family is now on the verge of a gender time bomb. As a result of one child per family the men discard their daughters for a hope of a male child and being taken care of in old age. The result is an ever growing male population who are going to continue to grow in size. It was written in the International Hearald Tribune about the threat:
In a trend fraught with troubling political and social implications, China will soon find itself with a marriage-age population remarkably out of balance, with about 23 million more young men than women available for them to marry in this decade and the next - what demographers term a "marriage squeeze."
This impending surplus of unattached young men could be a driving force behind increased crime, explosive epidemics of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases, and even international threats to the security of other nations. Yet the Chinese government has done little to address its demographic destiny.
The problem is that because the men are not married and can't find work they are in turn joining gangs and resorting to violence, drugs and crime. The further result of problems is the growing female orphan population who grow up to become wives and later mothers with issues that result from growing up abandoned and raised in an orphanage because they are female. Perpetuating this dis-function even more. It is a sad state that needs our prayers and help!
What if God was one of us?
Well he would have his own version of YouTube, right? That is what Chris Wyatt would have you believe. I don't know about you but I hate Christian Cheese. You know that stuff that ooooozs out like Chez Whiz. Well Chris Wyatt has started the Christian version of you tube, it is called GodTube.com. GodTube.com has nothing but Christian related video material and you can open an account like YouTube the only difference is the content is reviewed by GodTube staff for content, which must be Godly. Unless you are advertising then it can be Classmates.com. The most viewed videos goes right back to the Chez Whiz with a parody version of Sir Mix a Lot's "Baby Got Back" called "Baby Got Book." I don't know how this will reach people for God, if you do let me know?
The guy who killed Swayze!
Luis Guzman has played rolls in movies such as Boogie Nights, Bone Collector, Anger Management and a ton more. Only the role of a killer in Ghost that slain Patrick Swayze is the role he is best known for. The only problem is he did not play that role. Actually an actor named Rick Aviles played the role and he died in 1995 of Aids. Though to this day he is plagued with being identified as the guy who killed Swayze in Ghost. Poor guy!

It's a Fat World After All?
Congratulations America! We've finally eaten our way out of Disney World. When the boats for the famous It's a Small World were designed in the early 60s the average American man weighed 175 lbs and the average American woman was 135 lbs. Bwahaha! I weighed 175 lbs in seventh grade. The problem isn't that supersized Americans aren't fitting. The issue is that all of our newfound and hard-earned girth has been causing the boats to bottom out during certain points (like in front of the Canadian Mountie) which in turn stops the ride. Meaning that besides screaming kids, you have to hear that song for even longer. Disneyland employees (frighteningly referred to as "Cast Members") have known about this hefty problem for years and have tried combating it by guesstimating people's weights and trying to leave empty rows on boats filled with fatties. However, the boats still get stuck, and the lardy howl and scream when after they get helped off the ride, the boat pops up and starts moving. It's a Small World will be closing in 2008 and welcoming back our collective fat behinds back in 2009.

Distraction Life
Whether you're aware of it or not, material possessions create indecision and distractions, consuming attention and making unfettered happiness a real chore.
Truth is it is impossible to realize how distracting all this crap is until you get rid of it.

Vincent DeDomenico dies
I know many of you are devastated by this news. Some of you are like who? For those few of you in the minority who don't know of Vincent DeDomenico invented Rice-A-Roni, the San Francisco treat. I love the beef flavor, my Mom use to make it for me as a kid and it rocked!
God Speed Vincent!
Here is snipit about him...
God Speed Vincent!
Here is snipit about him...
Vincent DeDomenico, the son of Italian immigrants who took a family recipe and turned it into Rice-A-Roni - "the San Francisco treat" - and later built and ran the Napa Valley Wine Train, died Thursday in his sleep at home in Napa.
He was 92 and had worked happily until the night he died, his family said. His wife of nearly 60 years was at his side.
"He was a dreamer," Mildred DeDomenico, 87, said of her husband. "He always had all these plans. He'd write them down on pieces of paper. He was a man who could never retire."
Growth
God has, is and will continue to do amazing things in our lives, but what he has done with the ministry of our adoption has been amazing. I have seen God in so many ways it is not comprehensible. He is so stinkin cool! We serve such a great God who is ALWAYS there. We may come and go, but God stays present. Thank you to all of you who have answered the call to help us in our ministry.
God Bless!

Butt Love
Aren't you glad God does not have butt love for you? You know the type of love most of us have for each other. I love this person, butt... This could be filled in with the down right petty to the extremely egregious. Bottom line God says in his word Isaiah 43:25 I, even I, am He Who blots out and cancels your transgressions, for My own sake, and I will not remember your sins. The wisdom in this passage is not the forgiveness of our sins, the wisdom comes from seeing that unconditional love is for our benefit not the ones we love. You see we carry the butt baggage. The conditions we hold upon others are held by us not them. Those tend to add up and stay with us, then like a wound they eventually scar over which stays with us. The good news is we don't have to go to a plastic surgeon to remove the scars we can remove them ourselves. If we know and believe how much God loves us we can give these butts to God and know he will remove them from our lives, 1 Corinthians 2:12 We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us.
After all this is over, all that will really have mattered is how we treated each other.

Shallow and proud of it!
THIS APPEARED ON CRAIG'S LIST
What am I doing wrong?
Okay, I'm tired of beating around the bush. I'm a beautiful
(spectacularly beautiful) 25 year old girl. I'm articulate and classy.
I'm not from New York. I'm looking to get married to a guy who makes at
least half a million a year. I know how that sounds, but keep in mind
that a million a year is middle class in New York City, so I don't think
I'm overreaching at all.
Are there any guys who make 500K or more on this board? Any wives? Could
you send me some tips? I dated a business man who makes average around
200 - 250. But that's where I seem to hit a roadblock. 250,000 won't get
me to central park west. I know a woman in my yoga class who was married
to an investment banker and lives in Tribeca, and she's not as pretty as
I am, nor is she a great genius. So what is she doing right? How do I
get to her level?
Here are my questions specifically:
- Where do you single rich men hang out? Give me specifics- bars,
restaurants, gyms
-What are you looking for in a mate? Be honest guys, you won't hurt my
feelings
-Is there an age range I should be targeting (I'm 25)?
- Why are some of the women living lavish lifestyles on the upper east
side so plain? I've seen really 'plain jane' boring types who have
nothing to offer married to incredibly wealthy guys. I've seen drop dead
gorgeous girls in singles bars in the east village. What's the story
there?
- Jobs I should look out for? Everyone knows - lawyer, investment
banker, doctor. How much do those guys really make? And where do they
hang out? Where do the hedge fund guys hang out?
- How you decide marriage vs. just a girlfriend? I am looking for
MARRIAGE ONLY
Please hold your insults - I'm putting myself out there in an honest
way. Most beautiful women are superficial; at least I'm being up front
about it. I wouldn't be searching for these kind of guys if I wasn't
able to match them - in looks, culture, sophistication, and keeping a
nice home and hearth.

THE ANSWER
Dear Pers-431649184:
I read your posting with great interest and have thought meaningfully
about your dilemma. I offer the following analysis of your predicament.
Firstly, I'm not wasting your time, I qualify as a guy who fits your
bill; that is I make more than $500K per year. That said here's how I
see it.
Your offer, from the prospective of a guy like me, is plain and simple a
cr@ppy business deal. Here's why. Cutting through all the B.S., what you
suggest is a simple trade: you bring your looks to the party and I bring
my money. Fine, simple. But here's the rub, your looks will fade and my
money will likely continue into perpetuity...in fact, it is very likely
that my income increases but it is an absolute certainty that you won't
be getting any more beautiful!
So, in economic terms you are a depreciating asset and I am an earning
asset. Not only are you a depreciating asset, your depreciation
accelerates! Let me explain, you're 25 now and will likely stay pretty
hot for the next 5 years, but less so each year. Then the fade begins in
earnest. By 35 stick a fork in you!
So in Wall Street terms, we would call you a trading position, not a buy
and hold...hence the rub...marriage. It doesn't make good business sense
to "buy you" (which is what you're asking) so I'd rather lease. In case
you think I'm being cruel, I would say the following. If my money were
to go away, so would you, so when your beauty fades I need an out. It's
as simple as that. So a deal that makes sense is dating, not marriage.
Separately, I was taught early in my career about efficient markets. So,
I wonder why a girl as "articulate, classy and spectacularly beautiful"
as you has been unable to find your sugar daddy. I find it hard to
believe that if you are as gorgeous as you say you are that the $500K
hasn't found you, if not only for a tryout.
By the way, you could always find a way to make your own money and then
we wouldn't need to have this difficult conversation.
With all that said, I must say you're going about it the right way.
Classic "pump and dump."
I hope this is helpful, and if you want to enter into some sort of
lease, let me know.

my money. Fine, simple. But here's the rub, your looks will fade and my
money will likely continue into perpetuity...in fact, it is very likely
that my income increases but it is an absolute certainty that you won't
be getting any more beautiful!
So, in economic terms you are a depreciating asset and I am an earning
asset. Not only are you a depreciating asset, your depreciation
accelerates! Let me explain, you're 25 now and will likely stay pretty
hot for the next 5 years, but less so each year. Then the fade begins in
earnest. By 35 stick a fork in you!
So in Wall Street terms, we would call you a trading position, not a buy
and hold...hence the rub...marriage. It doesn't make good business sense
to "buy you" (which is what you're asking) so I'd rather lease. In case
you think I'm being cruel, I would say the following. If my money were
to go away, so would you, so when your beauty fades I need an out. It's
as simple as that. So a deal that makes sense is dating, not marriage.
Separately, I was taught early in my career about efficient markets. So,
I wonder why a girl as "articulate, classy and spectacularly beautiful"
as you has been unable to find your sugar daddy. I find it hard to
believe that if you are as gorgeous as you say you are that the $500K
hasn't found you, if not only for a tryout.
By the way, you could always find a way to make your own money and then
we wouldn't need to have this difficult conversation.
With all that said, I must say you're going about it the right way.
Classic "pump and dump."
I hope this is helpful, and if you want to enter into some sort of
lease, let me know.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM
Googling For Info!
As you can see my little brother is getting married and I found out about it from him. I did find out the details though through Googling. That is right my brother and his fiancee Heather Kuznik have a website promoting, I mean giving the details of their wedding.
The only thing I see missing is the little box to check "if anyone has any reason for this couple not to get married?" Just Kidding I am so happy for them and pray God blesses them and brings them close to His Heart!
I am just waiting for a sexy picture of me up on their as the Better, I mean Best Man! Will Keep Ya Posted.
ANGER =
an·ger (ăng'gər)
[Middle English, from Old Norse angr, sorrow.]
noun
A strong feeling of displeasure or hostility.
verb: -gered, -ger·ing, -gers.
transitive verb
To make angry; enrage or provoke.
intransitive verb
To become angry: She angers too quickly.
Of all the emotions I don't like Anger...
It is not that I don't get angry, I do...
I just don't like being angry or someone angry with me.
Not only do I dislike anger, I dislike the transitive or provoking anger.
Ever notice family gets the transitive form of anger more than most and can provoke you like no other?
I wish I could be like I DREAM OF GENIE and twinkle my nose to eliminate anger in life.
All I can do is confess the Word...
Proverbs 14:29(AMP) He who is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who is hasty of spirit exposes and exalts his folly.
I don't want to or need to exalt any more of my folly than is already exposed!
How about you?

No More Mondays
It is official I am no longer having any more Mondays. That is right in little over an hour and a half it is going to be official the day formerly known as Monday. I am going to be calling Monday and although it will be hard to refer to the day in conversation it should be a piece of cake in written form. So have a good See ya!

Time
I want more of it and there never seems to be enough of it! One thing I have started to figure out is that the older I get the less time I seem to have. I mean even from today to five years ago it seems like I have less time. I need margin, any thoughts?

Where is Horatio Cane?
I SAW GOD THIS MORNING!
Now I know what you are thinking here, Bmac has lost his mind! No, I haven't and I will explain why. I had to go to Ft Lauderdale/Miami today and needed to leave by noon to make it on time to go to a Presidential Debate tonight and then pick up Rachel's Grandmother and bring here back to Tampa.
That said I had a ton of work to get done prior to leaving and my morning started a downward spiral as customers started calling with all kinds of problems. So, as I drove past a gas station I HAD to stop at cause I was out of gas my phone was blowing up and I was more concerned with others needs than my pending doom.
Well next came a sputter, then silence. UGH!!!! I ran out of gas in the middle of no where and decided I would just walk to the gas station a couple of miles back.
As I walked and calculated the amount of time this would cost me, a ragged out van pulled over in front of me. At this point I think a little about "Deliverence" just because I am in the "Country" as I grab the door handle and look inside I think to myself if this guy is scary I am gonna run into the woods. Well sitting in this van is a little old man who speaks no English. He offers to give me a ride to the station and back to my car. As we drive he explains he is a pastor at a Seventh Day Adventist Church. He offers to buy my gas and then offers to give me money to fill up my car. I in turn try to give him money and he tells me no because he is "rico" or rich.
I guess rico is relative!
Now the fact that someone stopped for me this morning - is amazing!
Greater than that is the fact that this entire episode costs me only about 20 minutes. I called Rachel and she was in disbelief that I was already back on the road. As was I and I was the one driving!
GO GOD!
Oh yeah thank you God!

Tired & Proud
OK, so this is me driving to Jared's first cross country meet at five in the morning. I am so stinking tired I don't remember a photo being taken.
Now this is one of my proudest moments as a dad. My son coming in first for his school running his first ever race. Now he finished 118th racing as a Varsity racer when he is really Junior Varsity, his school has no seniors cause it is a first year school.
That said he did very well and will be racing Junior Varsity next week so he is sure to place higher up in the rankings.
He did great and I am proud.
Look for more photos and updates at the cross country team website, which I am also doing!

I Want mY MTV! Back
I did not watch the VMAs just caught glimpses of the debauchery and could not help but ask the following:
1. How does a station that plays no music videos, judge music videos?
2. Shouldn't MTV do the reality show awards which is what they play most?
3. Kid Rock and Tommy Lee belong in a trailer park, not on TV.
4. Is Dr. Dre getting ready for a career in baseball?
5. Artist need to stay with what they know, performing and stay out of politics!
6. Britney needs to find Jesus cause she is freakin lost!
7. Timbala nd ke you figure which one is which let me know?
8. MTV needs a coup!

“Music, the greatest good that mortals know, And all of heaven we have below.”
I added something new to the world of the sausage king and as you should have noticed by now, unless you have your volume turned all the way down.
That said what better band to have on the initial run than the best band in the whole world Pillar!
Let me know what you thoughts are about the player I already know you all love the music, just wondering what you think about it playing in the background?
P.S. If you don't like it you can shut if off!
