8-5-2012 Ramble On--You Say!?

                        **"FYI---- Mess with my wife, and you mess with me!"**----
            I am happy to report this works both ways.  At least most of the time.  

     We just had some problems with "friends" posting hateful things online --and than not being sorry that they posted them---but sorry that my wife saw the words.   Without going into it all to much ---here are the cliff notes of my thoughts.  

1. I love how people feel they can say whatever they wish online and than get butt hurt when someone calls them on it. Don't you? I have said things online about my wife, but she has called me on it, and we eventually worked through it. Best case and point--is the Mitch that called me an SOB on my wife's page and than was extremely butt hurt-when I defended myself. Really? Were going through the same thing now----If you put hateful stuff online, have the balls to back it up, or suffer my thoughts. Both on Facebook and in my blogs.

   
   

   1. If you personalize something in a post--you are responsible for the comments it generates. Taking the post down--is not an apology. Nothing is ever fully gone once it is posted on the Internet. No matter what your state of mind "joking" about harming someone is not kool. I will now get off my soap box.

   
   

   
   

   
   

   
   

          **"I would like to thank whomever added Early Times to my Pepsi! Wait it was me. ;)"**

          **"Someone told me to grow up today, and it almost made me choke on my Lego!"**

**" Member that time when we got super drunk and had fun and fell in love?

         I remember it like it was tomorrow."**

        So we have a friend that announces online every month her and her boyfriend are a couple. I think they are at 9 months now--which is great. But to that I ask---how many months is in 7 years, because we are almost there. A big **YOUR AMAZING** to all of the couples out there that have been together much much longer. I love you April Adams forever and a day

    **Ask me why I dislike Subway** Especially the new one in Ferndale. Blog post all about it coming this week.-----Are you like our friend---and hate Subway because there foot long measuring stick made him cry??

      **"Did y'all know this is the year of the triple X Olympics?? Wait... it's the 30th Olympics you say...... O-I won't be watching than!"**

    **"You ask what my favorite game at the Casino is?? I would have to say the ATM Because you can't beat the odds! Winner every time I play!"**

      **"Great minds talk about New Ideas . .. . . .

            Average minds talk about Current Events . . .. . 

            Simple minds talk about other people . .. "**. -----Thanks Robert Fischer

  1. **"Have you ever said or posted something that was smart yet stupid as sh*t at the same time? That is when it becomes "deep" and welcome to my world ;)"**

   I have been slacking at placing deep quotes in my blogs.  So tonight I added more than usual.   Until lately, every blog post had at least a few to ponder on.   These usually left you pondering, what the heck I was thinking.   Don't worry, I get that daily.  

  Our family goes to a great church.  Plus it is close to our home.  Every time we go to the church, the sermon seems to be tailor picked for either my wife, I, or both of us.  Today was no different.  

   My cliff notes on today's sermon--with some of my own thoughts of course. ----

1. **"Just going to church does not make you a Christian any more than standing in your garage makes you a car."** 1/3 of the people in this World are starving. 17 million kids die a year from starvation. Think of those stats next time you eat that 5th burger or throw out a tray of food. Starting next weeksend our family is going to start feeding some of the homeless around Bellingham. I am not saying all this to gain attention to what we are doing--but to hopefully get helpers and to make you put it in perspective if you have never had to go to bed hungry.

    In case you have not yet gotten the memo---I like coffee    just a lil bit!

   In fact if you type in coffee in my blog searches---it will appear in about 90 percent of my posts.  I am working on branching out into other topics more. 

   I did not take the above picture---but it is great.     Maybe not as much if you do not know were the 307 area code is from.   Your only hint---it is one of the only states left with only one area code for phone calls.   Meaning the population is very very low.  In this state the first number on car licence plates, also tells you what county the driver is from. 

     And  now for a couple of helpful charts!

Tomorrow I will post another exploring blog!

Another Post Before July

   I am really hopping that this does not turn into another summer---were we really never see summer.  Beyond those breaks of the rain for a day or two, filled with all on sunshine that just mainly teases everyone.  Last summer I found myself in Wyoming, and we got record rain, in fact much of the flooded.  And everyone blamed me for bringing the rain from here in Washington.  Right now ---the clouds are kind of nice, compared to the full on summer most of the country is seeing.  Complete with 3 digit temperatures and huge fires.  But the constant clouds and rain gets old long before spring hits.  

I have mentioned this before---But I can not wait to ride the new huge ferries wheel in Seattle.  They just officially opened it yesterday.  Just in time for the big 4th of July Weeksend.  Right on the waterfront, 200 feet high --it should offer some truly amazing views.  Each fully enclosed seat is climate controlled.   Rides are $13 bucks for adults.   I will be able to better sound like a tourist guide, after we ride the wheel.   I did not take this picture, but it is grand!

Even more amazing is the sight of the sun in this picture!

        Last month I talked about how hard it is to find a pay phone ---let alone one that actually works!

   While roaming around down town Bellingham, I learned a few things the other day.   It is always a great place to find interesting sights and people for sure.  I learned again how hard it is to use the restroom after about 7 PM.   When the bus station is closed.   Most places lock there restrooms in the down town area or are closed very early in the night.   Trying to relieve yourself in an alley is not recommended.  Beyond the very likely option that you will spend the night in jail, alleys have used needles in them.  This is a very great town in most ways, but drug users are not the cleanest many a time.   I have also noticed that very few people around here seem to work.   They are retired or just wealthy in general.  This is great for the retired people.  Not so great for the under paid shop workers or the regular Joe that tries to go on a quick shopping trip in the middle of the day--- on a Wed.   Why are all of the shops full in the middle of the week, and than even busier on the weekends?  

    That's not right!   Like most of the things I post.   Hopefully you at least find it funny.

And then repeat!    

OK no one might call my posts or pictures art, but the above is how I get to my above insights.

AND it got me my coffee post for the night.  

Today's picture of the day comes from our exploring a few daze back while we 

were down by the bay.   

I make it extra large-because it is kind of creepy.   Anyways this rock faces out to the bay.  And someone added the pupil to complete the illusion.  I am going to offer two pictures of the day today---because I have been slacking on posting these.  

      One of the many parks in the area.   With school finally being out, these parks will all be much fuller most of the time.  But as you can see by the sky, we hit the play area between storms.   This one happens to be in Ferndale at Pioneer Park.    Again more exploring posts in the works.  

Some observances on big business and my last short lived job also in an upcoming post.   I am slacking  AND I kind of want to be officially clear of the managers.   

I promise that tons of new posts and such 

are in the works.  Filled with pictures, jokes, deep quotes, and of course my random rambling.  

I thrive on comments good gooder or bad   so please contact me on this blog sight   check out my other blog or visit my new Facebook page at
