Just Call Me a Homophobe Then

I like to read, it's been well documented in this blog. I won't go into how much, but understand that when I tell you that I read something.  Yesterday, it was that the idiot FDA was considering loosening the restrictions against homosexuals and bisexuals donating blood.  Those two groups feel discriminated against, and don't think it's fair that they are not allowed to donate blood that may well kill people.
Do you remember when anyone could get AIDS? That's the lie that they try and perpetuate.  Sure Magic Johnson is HIV positive, but he was having sex with anything that didn't outrun him.  You put up those kinds of numbers, and you are bound to get something bad.
The truth of the matter is that if you are in a monogamous relationship with someone who is also monogamous (there is the catch, right?) and neither of you are using intravenous drugs, then you have a very small chance of ever getting AIDS. It also helps if neither of you are homosexual.  That is the part that seems to cheese the rainbow crowd right off.
How dare the HIV virus be so discriminating?  It just isn't fair!  So to make them feel less bad about themselves- we should allow them to potentially infect the rest of us?  Are you kidding?
I don't think it's a good idea to knowingly let in a virus that could kill us all.  It doesn't matter if people are living longer with the virus.  Look at Johnson, he's the portliest HIV positive person in the world!   Remember what Rock Hudson looked like at the end? He was skin and bones, a human skeleton.
But now it's going to be okay for homosexuals and those who won't commit to one team to go ahead and donate blood so that they don't feel bad about themselves.  Yeah, better we kill a few million more people with none of the behaviors that cause AIDS then we hurt the feelings of some homosexuals and switch hitters.
If you have the time and the inclination, now would be a great time to start putting your own blood into storage.  It may cost a little, but the average month of medicines to inhibit the HIV virus costs anywhere from $2000 to $5000.  Add that to the cost of your obamacare premiums and you are talking about a lot more money than storing your own blood in case you would need it. It seems to me that is a no brainer.
You can easily go online or call your local hospital to see what kind of storage they have available.  Most people don't need more than a few pints, even in the worst emergency.  At the very worst, you could store enough to replace your entire system-maybe five  and a half quarts.
Think about it, you'll thank me later.

Operation Jade Helm

People love to have something to be afraid of, don't they?  It can be something as simple as fluoride in the water or as complex as the calendar year changing.  I remember with much fondness the people whose panties were permanently twisted when the year 2000 rolled around.  It was much fuss for nothing, I don't recall anyone losing their power, and wide spread panic was mostly averted.  Imagine if the internet had been as prevalent.
Now we have a military exercise known as Operation Jade Helm on the horizon. It is a military exercise, not unlike past exercises, that designated parts of the United States as hostile territory.  The Navy did a similar exercise off the Georgia coast.  No lives were lost.
I am not a fan of the current administration.  Spend two minutes reading other posts of mine and you will reach the same conclusion.  But conspiracy theorists abound and they are making me weary.
Operation Jade Helm is a training exercise for Special Forces.  It isn't going to be a covert attempt to overthrow local governments and install Marshall Law.
It will run from July 15 to September 15 and it will not affect any voting events, nor will it install any military as police in local areas.  It isn't going to be used to usher in a military presence.  It isn't going to be an attempt to install b.o. as a permanent dictator.  Do you really think Hillary or Bill Clinton would go along with a dictator that wasn't one of them?? Of course they wouldn't.
While I appreciate the states that will be monitoring the exercise with their Guard units, I have to wonder if that isn't the best use of their funds.  Go ahead and watch, But then don't complain when your budgets fall short.
Does anyone else remember when Algore tried to steal the 2000 election?  I actually worked with idiots who thought that just meant Slick Willie got to remain president until it was decided.  Sad, isn't it?
I don't think Operation Jade Helm is a covert attempt to overthrow the citizenry.  I don't think that even someone as ignorant of American Culture like b.o. would try something that stupid.  Do you know why the emperor of Japan didn't want to try and invade the mainland of the United States of America? "Because there is a gun behind every blade of grass" that's why.
Is anyone really worried that Texas of all places will be overrun??
Think about it: two idiot muslims tried to murder a bunch of innocents over their latest hissy fit having to do with their favorite pedophile-Mohammed-and what happened? Gun rights 2 would be muslim terrorists 0.
Even the bleating from the ignorant left and those who would blame the organizers of the contest cannot defend the idea that we cherish freedom in the United States.  We don't cower from the politically incorrect-at least not yet.
Try to kill us and we will kill you back.  Think about it.  You'll thank me later.

The Joys of Stupid People

I was recently contacted through the site that I use for my blog from some nameless faceless moron.  I post my opinions in forums (hide your shock) and from time to time an idiot-albeit a tenacious idiot-attempts to engage me in back and forth.  I will not be cowed when I am right. I will post the links proving my point.  I don't need any more back and forth as you utter your pathetic "no weapons of mass destruction" "I can see Russia from my house" or my personal favorite lie "Gore won."
Once you utter one of the special lies, I realize that I am talking to a moron and there is no sense continuing the debate.  One of my favorite expressions lately is "When you are arguing with a fool, make sure that they aren't also."
So the internet is wonderful in that it has made the world open and free for debate.  We are now able to share our opinions and ideas with almost everyone in the world at the click of a button.  So why is it that some people are simply astounded to discover that they are not only wrong, but that most people don't think the way that they do? The loudest voice in the room isn't usually the right voice.  In my experience, the person who must doggedly insist that you are wrong is the person who is usually talking out of his or her butt.  I guess I don't tolerate fools as well as I used to do.  Maybe I have gotten more patient (wouldn't that be nice?) or maybe I just got tired.
I will not say something is right when it isn't-but on the other hand, how many times do I have to say it?  I don't care much for people who have to assure me how intelligent that they are.  Nine times out of ten, I'll figure it out myself after talking to you for a few minutes.  It's the same way with very religious people.  I don't need to be told that you are a Christian.  Live your life, and I will see it for myself.
Someone I care deeply for was recently baptized.  It was wonderful to see him join the family of Christ.  But he doesn't need to tell me he is a Christian.  I see it in the way he struggles to turn away from the actions of his past.  He loves God and is new to prayer.  He'll get there. He isn't stupid, just ignorant, for now.  But he is finding his way, less ignorance.
But stupid people relish their stupidity.  They gang up with other stupids and try and make you think that they are right simply because they all think the same way.  Classic Ailynsky tactic, and a sign of desperation.
Embrace your debates with the stoopids.  If nothing else, they'll make you feel much better about yourself.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.

Homosexual "Marriage" Isn't About Equality- It's Trying to Force the Normalization of Abhorrant Behavior

It's come down to this.  This week the Supreme Court or SCOTUS for those who love their acronyms-will decide what we have to tolerate.  It isn't equality, it's lowering our standards so that those who refuse to abide by morals and standards can feel less freakish.
Marriage is one man and one woman.  Already polygamists are lining up to take a crack at normalizing their behavior.
Homosexuality has nothing to do with civil rights. Nothing at all, no matter how they try to frame it.  It does have to do with forcing the majority to change their opinions and accept what is wrong.  If that isn't tyranny-then what is?
In every single state that has voted to protect marriage-defining it as one man and one woman-the initiative has passed.  The only reason that it isn't standing now is because of  activist judges who circumvent the Constitution and make laws from their isolated benches.
I have no faith in John Roberts.  He caved on obamacare-accepting their lie that it was a tax after years and years of being told that it wasn't a tax.  Bader-Ginsburg is so old and decrepit that she cannot even stay awake through a State of the Union Address.  She later claimed that she had been drinking and just kind of faded.  I don't blame her.  Drunk is the only way to listen to B.O.  Sobriety and he don't mix.  At least if he is talking. And he's always  talking.
Homosexuals can have civil unions.  There isn't a state in the country that denies them the right to share property with whomever they choose.  They can list anyone on their insurance and they can make a will and leave their crap to whatever they want to.
There is no law that stops two homosexuals from playing dress up and changing their last names to match.  But that wasn't enough for them, was it?
The idea that Hollywood and a handful of vocal pro-homosexual celebrities can force their delusions on the majority is wrong. Plain and simple.
Two men or two women cannot be married.  All of the idiots in DC can't change that.  Think about it.  You'll thank me later.

Walmart Closes Stores Because of Aliens From OuterSpace!!!

I'm not one for following the network news.  I don't believe the spin that they put on the very news that I read unadulterated earlier in the day.  If I want a spin, I'll go to the carnival.  That being said- I am reading horror story after horror story about the heartless corporation known as Walmart closing five stores with almost no notice to its employees.
I have read that Walmart closed five stores because of plumbing issues.  I have also read that they were closed to facilitate B.O.'s invasion exercise.  I have read that they will be detention facilities.  I don't believe a word of it.
If I had a dog in the fight-my guess would be that five stores had recently voted to unionize.  If they were stupid enough to do that, they voted themselves out of a job.  The economy sucks or hadn't anyone told them lately?  If they foolishly believed the media, then more is the pity.  How does that unemployment feel now?  Of course they got a smidgen of severance pay. But they would probably rather have jobs, huh?
What did they think those unions were going to give them, anyway? $12 an hour to start?? Good luck with that.  I am not now or will I ever be a huge fan of Walmart, but less so am I a fan of unions.  Kind of a toss right?  But five stores have closed their doors and I don't really believe it's a plumbing issue.  But you know, if those associates tore something up hoping to get some kind of leverage, they look even dumber now, don't they?
Walmart is not a job for the faint hearted. Retail in general means you will be dealing with people that have never been taught  basic manners, and management that doesn't care.  The only way to survive working for a faceless corporation is to leave the job when you clock out.  You cannot make it personal, you have to leave it at the door.
But if  Walmart has closed five stores because of unionization- then good for them.  That's what they did when the meat cutters unionized.  They stopped doing that in the stores and let those people go.  They sent all of their meat through giant facilities that cut the meat there and then shipped it to the stores.  Why wouldn't they?
People shop at Walmart for one reason: low prices.  When Walmart stops providing the lowest prices they will go the way of K-mart.  Unions will promise ridiculous wage increases ( and they better be to cover those forced union dues) and then when Walmart gets the demand, they say no.  So when the unions threaten strikes ( the only arrow in their quiver) then the world's largest retailer closes the doors.  Pretty simple, huh?
I thank God everyday that I don't have to work there anymore.  The less I have to deal with either of those entities-the better.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.

Heterosexuals Have Rights Too or Why are 6 and a Half Million People Telling the Rest of Us What to Do?

I am not a pro homosexual person.  I know people that chose to be in same sex relationships, I even consider some of them friends.  Do I think that they were born that way? Nope. Not one of them.
I do think that they have suffered from some sort of trauma that caused them to react by rejecting the heterosexual sex they should have.
Let the hate mail begin.
First, homosexuality is not nearly as common as one would expect it to be.  I don't watch television and I cannot escape the pervasive agenda to make homosexuality normal.  It isn't that common at all.  In the most recent survey that I could find, 2.4% of the population identified as homosexual.  That comes out to 6450760.12 people.  Yes, you read that right.  Less than 6.5 million people have decided that the rest of us must accept their choices.  Or else.
It helps that B.O. has lost every other demographic and must now go mining for someone, anyone to still think of him favorably.  Pathetic.  I have friends that think of it as a tolerance issue.  How nice for them.  There is a pizza shop in Indiana that could tell you all about the 'tolerance' they received when they refused to cater a homosexual event.  There is also a florist that went out of business after being overwhelmed with "tolerance" for having an opinion about homosexuality that didn't sit well with those who would shove it down our throats.
When researching the numbers for this, I read countless studies about the actual number of homosexuals.  I discounted every study that included prison experiences.  No offense to our incarcerated population, but the idea that the prisons can give us an accurate count of the amount of homosexuals in our country is laughable.
When I would run across a pro homosexual study, it would almost always tout the number 10 %.  And that number is accurate so long as you include those who had homosexual relationships while confined to jail cells and never had a homosexual encounter after that. Just give me the data, I don't need outliers in the numbers.
It would be the same as polling right outside a McDonald's to find out how many meat eaters we have in our country.
So now that we are looking at the real numbers- about 2.4%, we can destroy another liberal meme about homosexuality.  It is nothing like the civil rights movement.  People of all sorts were discriminated against-blacks, Asians, even Irish.  I have often said that Catholicism is one of the few religions it is acceptable to disparage. Sexual orientation is not a protected status.  At least it shouldn't be.  Make your choices and live with them.  I shouldn't have to bake you a cake for your dress up party if it's my business. Find another baker who wants to.  See how easy that was?
In several studies of twins that I was able to find in nanoseconds (thanks Internet!) only half of the maternal twins in the comprehensive study were both homosexual.  How can that be if homosexuality is something that you are "born " with?  In the case of maternal twins, they are exactly the same biologically speaking. An exact match if you will.  Only in half of the cases were both twins homosexual.  That shoots down the idea that anyone is born that way.  You can't argue with the numbers.
Live your life.  If you chose to be a homosexual, good for you.  But it doesn't make you a protected class of folks, and you don't get more rights than other people get.  If you have a partner and want to protect them-make a will.  Get insurance and name them as the beneficiary.  See how easy that was?
If you want to have a dress up day and decide to have the same last name, then fine.  But you aren't married, you are delusional if you think that you are.  It takes one of each.  If you think I'm wrong then the two of you should go make a baby and prove to me and science that we're wrong.  Oh, you can't? I guess that just like marriage- making a baby takes one of each.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.

The Ted Cruz Roast

Ted Cruz is making things very difficult for the msm.  He is clearly conservative enough to please those that drive the Republican Party's enthusiasm levels.  He is well spoken, and to date he has been able to avoid all of the foot in mouth problems that some conservative candidates have stumbled through.
Ted Cruz makes it very difficult for the msm.  If his eligibility is questioned (and it has been by some irony challenged) then it raises the humongous double standard that Obama's ineligibility and fraud were proven conclusively  https://youtu.be/XWmWO18GTc8  and the media simply chose to ignore it.
If forensic specialists had been involved in President Bush's military service questions, Dan Rather might still have a job, huh?
I agree with many of the things that Senator Cruz says.  I disagree with some, but he is head and shoulders better than the hot mess we are stuck with for now.
I love that there are those who claim Senator Cruz doesn't have enough experience yet.  These are the same unprepossessing folks who thought that Barrak Hussein Sotaro Obama was just hunky dory and the second coming.
Remember the swooning? The reported 'cool factor' that Obama had?  I still shudder at the idea that he would be the 'smartest guy in the room.'  How small is that room anyway?
I still like Paul Ryan, he was the best part of Mitt Romney's unending run for the White House.  He has great ideas and an impeccable reputation.  I trust him when he tells me something.  I wouldn't trust B.O. to make change for a dollar.
How about if we quit using all of these liberal double standards?  How about if we just hear the truth-all of the truth- about the people that want to lead our country? It would be so refreshing if the media removed themselves from the process and just told me the facts.
It wasn't that long ago that the Harry Reid questioned the ethnicity of Mr. Cruz.  That was another under reported story for the media.  It didn't fit in with their narrative, I guess.  Of course, Mr. Reid's comments about B.O. not having a "negro dialect" were also seriously under reported.
Think for yourself and get your information from many sources.  You'll thank me later.

Nice to be Back

I didn't use my internet during Lent. It was a nice break and a great chance to realize how much time that I waste online.  Of course, my blood pressure was a little lower because I wasn't paying attention to ow badly Obama was screwing us over as a nation, but all good things must come to an end, I suppose.  Several things happened in my absence, and luckily I have an opinion for all of it.
First of all, I got rid of the tenants that were not good.  I will not miss the Hess' there I said it.  In the interest of avoiding any sort of litigation all I will say is that I will not rent to them again. I suppose that is why they didn't use me as a reference to the next sucker that they rented from, isn't it?
I have been interviewing potential tenants for the last two weeks and I don't have a very high opinion of people in general.
I cannot believe that I am surprised, of course.  Yes, I check references.  Here is a tip: pay your bills.  I had a couple that paid a deposit, and then backed out of the lease.  He would have been a long walk to take, if you understand what I mean.  I am not sorry that the lease didn't work out.  In this area, the ground is wet.  You get that when the town is built on a swamp.  A small bit of water in the basement is normal.  Wanting to get sideways about it isn't.
I had forgotten how ignorant people can be.  Yes, you have to pay your own utilities.  Yes, that is a lot of money- have you been to the grocery store lately?  In spite of the party line, yes, there is rampant inflation.  Welcome to the world.
On another note, the greatest dog in the world-Caliope- is fat and sassy.  She is probably on a chair right now, since I'm not home.  Imagine that.
I don't understand how Iran having nuclear weapons can be good for anyone.  Isn't it strange that the same idiot who wants to take away my guns has absolutely no problem allowing an insane area to have the ability to wipe out Israel.  Shame on any moron that voted for him.  Including the dead ones who left their graves to pull a Kennedy and vote for him twice.
But I guess that's enough for now.  Happy belated Easter.

It's Official- Don't Rent to Tiana or Erik Frick!

I had a couple of tenants a few years ago that seemed okay.  She worked, he didn't. I guess that is good work if you can get it. I have never run across that particular sugar momma/daddy deal, so I have always dragged my happy butt to work.  But anyway-

I rented to the Fricks with the understanding that they had two dogs.  They were supposed to be there for a year, pay by the fifth of the month and not tear anything up.  Well then.

They were late for six of the eight months that they rented from me.  In the end, they went to some church that he went to, and that church paid their rent.  They told me that they were going to visit his parents for the weekend in October, and they never came back.

I waited for two weeks and then I tried to call the people that they had used as references.  One hung up on me and the other never returned my many many messages.  I went into the apartment after two weeks and I found a disaster.  There were piles of food on the counter.  Dirty dishes in the sink and piles of clothes everywhere.  No room was clean.  Upstairs, there were puppy pads with urine and feces on the floor.  

Let's not even start on the bugs they left behind.  But best of all was the time we spent in court.  On the first day, she stood up in front of the judge and said (with a straight face) that she knew she owed me some, but couldn't believe it would be so much! I guess she didn't bother reading those papers that she signed.  (Here's a tip- always read the lease you sign!) 

Then she said that she couldn't get off from work so could we reschedule it?  We did, for another Thursday four weeks down the line.  She tried for another delay and was rejected.  Finally, she gets to court and asks for a trial.  Again, she simply cannot believe that she is being held responsible for the lease that she signed. 

We had our day in court.  I started by introducing the lease that she signed. I pointed out the clause that she still had to pay if she quit the lease early.  Next, I introduced the utilities that she stuck me with.  Then I showed the pictures of the piles of filth that they left behind.  What was her response you ask?

She tried crying.  She said that the bugs were there when she moved in. The judge asked for any notes, messages, anything that would prove that she told me about the problem.  Nope. Nada. She also tried saying that she had to leave because her father was sick.  There were more tears at this point, but my eyes were rolling so badly that I may have missed some of them. 

In the end, I won everything that I has asked for and then some.  She would have been better off just agreeing to pay what I was originally suing her for, it was five hundred dollars less. 

So if you get yourself in a bind with your landlord-don't just cut and run.  We will find you.  And then you will have to pay everything you owed, and eight percent interest!  I haven't had anything pay that high of an interest  rate since Ronald Reagan was president. Hot damn.

Think about it, you'll thank me later.

And a special Happy Birthday to my youngest bundle of joy.  I love you David Alexandre!

Don't Bother With a Flu Shot

I hate shots. I have had to have many of them and I know for a fact that I could never ever be a junkie if it meant giving myself injections. No "high" is worth that silliness.  But I bought into the propaganda this year and paid good money for a flu shot. I might as well have taken the money to a casino for all that I have to show for it.
It started not soon after my birthday.  I knew it wasn't from over indulging, I barely indulged.  So I thought maybe it was a cold. No luck. I was running a temperature of 103 for six days. Acetaminophen would knock the fever back, but it never successfully killed it.
 Then there were the lovely side effect. I won't give you too much detail but I will tell you this: when vomiting and diarrhea strike at the exact same time- you have to make a choice.  Neither choice will be good.  Ask my cat.
When I finally broke down and saw my doctor-he told me that the flu shot was zero percent effective this year-in his opinion. I won't get another one unless it comes with a money back guarantee.  And as for those people who told me it was probably less severe because of the shot- I would ask which part was less severe? The 11 days of nausea? Or maybe it was the earache, sore throat, runny nose or stuffed head that was lessened. Nope. I know my chest wasn't less congested because of the shot.  I tool so much medicine that it ended up jacking my blood pressure up 86 points.  Yeah, it was less alright.
I understand that it is a guessing game when they concoct the formula for the flu shot. I know that there are a lot of algorithms involved and that it isn't a perfect science.  I would have done better to just drink schnapps.  At least I would have been getting more sleep.
But maybe there is some lucky soul out there who was helped by the shot. How nice for them.  It sure wasn't me- I can tell you that.  Think about it, you'll thank me later.
