Change Your Underwear

There's an old sea story about a ship's Captain who inspected his sailors, and afterward told the first mate that his men smelled bad.
The Captain suggested perhaps it would help if the sailors would change underwear occasionally.
The first mate responded, "Aye, aye sir, I'll see to it immediately!"
The first mate went straight to the sailors berth deck and announced, "The Captain thinks you guys smell bad and wants you to change your underwear."
He continued, "Pittman, you change with Jones, McCarthy, you change with Witkowski, and Brown, you change with Schultz."
THE MORAL OF THE STORY:
Someone may come along and promise "Change," but don't count on things smelling any better.

The Problem with Public Housing

The problem with public housing is that the residents are not the owners. The people that live in the house did not earn the house, but were loaned the property from the true owners, the taxpayers. Because of this, the residents do not have the "pride of ownership" that comes with hard work. In fact, the opposite happens and the residents resent their benefactors because the very house is a constant reminder that they themselves did not earn the right to live in the house. They do not appreciate the value of the property and see no need to maintain or respect it in any way.

The result is the same whether you are talking about a studio apartment or a magnificent mansion full of priceless antiques. If the people who live there do not feel they earned the privilege, they will make this known through their actions.

 What do all these pictures have in common?

They all show a basic disrespect for The White House and its furnishings! The Resolute Desk was built from the timbers of the HMS Resolute and was a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford B. Hayes. It is considered a national treasure and icon of the presidency. 

The White House belongs to the people of America and should be more revered than to use anything and everything for a foot rest! What all these shots have in common is that they continue to prove that this man has no class! 

SO HERE'S A MESSAGE FROM THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA:

Mr. Obama, you are not in a hut in Kenya or Indonesia, or public housing in Chicago.

Get your feet off our desk!

I Have Four Extra Tickets... Who Wants One?

I have four extra tickets for the Robbie Knievel (son of Evel Knievel) event at the Ford Center next weekend in Beaumont, TX if anybody wants them. Robbie is going to attempt to jump over 1000 Obama supporters with a Caterpillar D-9 bulldozer. It should be lots of fun!
