REALLYYYY ?????

Jeremy Hill of Idaho is facing a trial, after he shot and killed a grizzly bear that came into his yard.

Hill claims that he came into the yard where his children were playing to find three grizzly bears had entered the property. He shot one of the bears, killing it and scaring the others away.

Hill reported the incident to the state authorities, who did not express concern. But federal authorities have charged Hill with killing an endangered species.

The case has stoked passions has attracted many supporters, including Idaho's republican governor Butch Otter. If convicted, Hill could face a year in prison or a $50,000 fine.

Hill's trial is scheduled to begin on October 4th.


If A offending animal kills someone , after that happens they will go hunt it down and kill it so it doesnt kill again ! BUTTTTT GODDD FORBIDD that a parent kills it to SAVE that life !!

REALLY ??? Is the Government that Daft ?? I would have dropped that bear in a heart beat as well . SHEEESSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHH !!!

Welcome to My Little Home Town

Welcome To Carmi , Illinois . What your looking at here is as of Sunday now Closed for traffic . The water reached approx 24" deep shortly after these pics were taken . To get to the restaurant across town , 1 mile away from my house requires a 20 mile drive sooooooooooooooooooooooooo we are not eating out LOL



As you look at the picture below , you can see a building behind the gas pumps . It as of Monday morning has 17" of water inside .



Town is accessible from the south only . The picture below shows one end of a road as it comes into town . The picture below this one is the other end of the road approx 13 miles away .


The other end of the road pictured below is a road that is Built on a raised road bed , kinda like a dam . Its approx 12 feet above the fields , As you can see its about 3 feet over the road that makes the corn field approx 15 feet deep with water at this point .


YES that is corn fields NOT a lake .


There is sooooooooo much water , the field has waves LOL

As I look at these pictures and think about all that we have here , I am grateful that we were spared what many south of us in Tennessee Alabama Kentucky and other places got . I can live with a little water .

Back When GREEN was Really GREEN !

In the line at the store, the cashier told the older woman that plastic bags weren't good for the environment. The woman apologized to her as the young clerk said "That's okay, you didn't have the 'green thing' back in your day."

That's right, they didn't have the green thing in her day. Back then, they returned their milk bottles, coke bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, using the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled.

But they didn't have the green thing back in her day.

In her day, they walked up stairs, because they didn't have an escalator in every store and office building. They walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time they had to go two blocks.

But she's right. They didn't have the green thing in her day.

Back then, they washed the baby's diapers because they didn't have the throw-away kind. They dried clothes on a line, not in an energy gobbling machine burning up 220 volts . Wind and solar power really did dry the clothes. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand new clothing.

But that lady is right, they didn't have the green thing back in her day.

Back then, they had one TV, or radio, in the house - not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a pizza dish, not a screen the size of the state of Montana .
In the kitchen, they blended and stirred by hand because they didn't have electric machines to do everything for you. When they packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, they used wadded up newspaper to cushion it, not styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap.

Back then, they didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. They used a push mower that ran on human power. They exercised by working so they didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.

But she's right, they didn't have the green thing back then.

They drank from a fountain when they were thirsty, instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time they had a drink of water. They refilled pens with ink, instead of buying a new pen, and they replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.

But they didn't have the green thing back then.

Back then, kids rode their bikes to school or rode the school bus, instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service. They had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And they didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 2,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest pizza joint.

But they didn't have the green thing back then!

People Can Be Absolutely Disgusting !!

I am appalled at how people act some times . Has the world gotten so lazy that they CANNOT care for basic Hygiene ? People are Disgusting to say the least ! OK why am I up on the soap box today you ask ? Ill tell you . Be ready to be grossed out . As you know the world around us has in many ways gotten very lazy. I see people going to the store in Pj's or with a 3 day "NO BATH " cloud hanging over them . This kind of stuff seems to be more common and its due to Simple Laziness ! What happened this weekend was wayyyyy beyond that as far as I'm concerned . I am sure it happens more than I care to know , but that's the point ! " I DON'T SEE IT " OK here goes . I was in a large chain restaurant this weekend with the Candle lady and T , we had taken her parents out to dinner. I wont mention the name of the restaurant over this incident , suffice it to say there is one in your neighborhood as well most likely. After a pleasant meal and good conversation . I needed to use the restroom . So I excused my self and walked merrily toward the men's room , still enjoying the smell of good food and tasty treats. I entered the afore mentioned room and it was clean and tidy and nicely done . There were two other people in the room and one was washing his hands . I was glad to see this as it is a pet peeve of mine. I stood facing the wall and taking care of business , looking straight ahead , cause as all me know looking sideways can get ya slugged "lol" . Anyway as I finished my relief effort and walked over to wash I realized that the stall was occupied as well. I washed thoroughly and was in the process of drying my hands with a paper towel when an elderly individual walked out of the stall and STRAIGHT OUT THE DOOR ! I stood there looking at the handle that I was now being forced to use to open the door with utter disgust . I reached and got extra paper towels to use in my exit strategy to free myself from this Lazy persons stupidity , getting rather perterbed at peoples in-ability to use common sense and WASH ! I was rather miffed I might add , but was yet to realize the extent of the persons stupidity ! I extracted myself from the room and walked out quickly finding a trash bin for the papertowel I held and waked back toward the table . As I rounded the corner the Full weight of this mans STUPIDITY AND LAZINESS set in and I was totally disgusted at how someone could be so ...so....so.... I cant think of a proper term that states how Low I feel this man is . As I rounded the corner and looked up he was standing in the exit , by the cashier and pawing through ....... The TOOTHPICKS !! I wanted to slug him !! I have never been so disgusted in my life !! Have we gotten so freaking lazy we not only don't care about us, but we don't care about people around us ? I stood there looking daggers at the man . He looked at me and walked away . I must have Had a rather strange look on my face , cause the cashier looked and ask if I was ok . So in a loud enough voice to be heard by the offending Jackwagon I said . THAT DISGUSTING OLD MAN JUST PAWED THROUGH THE TOOTHPICKS AFTER TAKING A DUMP AND DIDN'T WASH HIS HANDS !! In the restaurants defence I will say she quickly took the item off the counter . What happened next was the icing on the cake , the old man looked back and waved and walked out !! I was floored ! I can promise you this , I will NEVER use a restaurant Toothpick again ! FOR GODS SAKE PEOPLE ! WASH YOUR %*^&$@$ HANDS !!!!

Rush Limbaugh laughed about Japanese refugees recycling after the earthquake that struck the country on his Tuesday show.

A caller asked Limbaugh, "If these are the people that invented the Prius, have mastered public transportation, recycling, why did Mother Earth, Gaia if you will, hit them with this disaster?"

Limbaugh called this an "interesting question," and played a clip of ABC's Diane Sawyer reporting from a shelter in Japan. In the clip, Sawyer is surprised that the refugees in the shelter have maintained a recycling program. Limbaugh first mocked Sawyer, doing an impression of her and saying that "she sounds like she saw her husband for the first time in six months." He then turned to his caller's question.

"He's right," Limbaugh said. "They've given us the Prius. Even now, refugees are recycling their garbage." Here, he began to laugh, continuing, "and yet, Gaia levels them! Just wipes them out!"

This angle has been something of a theme for Limbaugh; last week, he wondered if environmentalists would "cheer" the quake.

Price Gouging

Lets discuss price gouging !

It seems that when ever there is a natural disaster , people tend to try and price gouge for items that are everyday use needs . Milk , water , bread etc: It is obvious when it happens , and in the last few years it has become a subject that the law has looked at and made illegal in the USA.

Not only is it illegal , but its immoral to treat people with such disdain and lack of care and consideration. When the people around us are hurting , why would ANYONE wish to profit from that misery is beyond me . I guess the worlds " lack of love" is a sure sign that peoples "spiritual training" in many cases is just a label .

But I wont dwell on that , the main reason I mention this today is because we see price gouging taking place right now and the government is just as much to blame as the company executives are.

Of what am I referring ? FUEL PRICES !!

The American people , well quite frankly the whole world is being " Price Gouged " with the high fuel prices . There is actually very little direct connection to the cost of a barrel of oil and the cost of a gallon of diesel or gas. Which brings me to another question , Diesel is the cheapest to make and the most expensive to buy , WHY !! PRICE GOUGING !!

If you or I were to double our prices on items of daily need we could be prosecuted , and yet the government allows it to be done daily to us and they stand ZERO responsibility in court !

The Major reason for the high diesel and gas prices is driven , NOT by the wars , NOT by the lack of fuel , NOT by the cost of a barrel of oil !

It is driven by greed ! HOW ? Quite simple actually , People are dumping money into oil stocks right now because they want to get rich off the plight of others . ( see earlier comment )
Have you put money in the stock market for oil? If yes you are PART OF THE PROBLEM !

Want prices to drop , sell your stock , make the oil companies stocks of less value and watch the prices come down . The problem is , it wont work , do you know why ?

Because we live in a dog eat dog , look out for number one , I'm a selfish jerk who deserves to be rich no matter how it affects my neighbor , world !

There is a disaster taking place RIGHT NOW ! And the world is at the hands of Price gouging , not only by the companies but by the governments they live under .

Sad to say , we are a people who talk about whats needed and complain about what is happening , but when the chips are down , most will look out for "me and mine " and that's a sad commentary for the world .

Yes we see price gouging , and no , in reality NOTHING will be done about it !

Sad isnt it !
