Here is to the end of 2005!!!!!

Ho Hum where to start: You know I think 2005 will go down in history as one of the biggest drags of all time. Let's see where to start, we didn't get our baby yet, that was going to be the biggest highlight of 2005 by far, but it isn't going to happen. I lost contact with pretty much all my friends from high school except for Richard and Kim and naturally my brother Scot. Have no idea what happened but life goes on I guess. Job some days seems to be going no where but down hill, hopefully that will turn around in 2006. Hopefully everything will turn around in 2006, we will be traveling soon to China to adopt our first baby, I will hopefully get to go to Las Vegas with my buddy Richard and who knows maybe win a little moolah. I think my father in law is going to come down to Columbus and help me put a new deck on my house, that should be exciting. We have lived here for 5 years now and we have wanted a new deck since we bought the house. Don't know what else to say other than hello 2006, 2005 SUCKED. I hate to be like this but I don't know of anything really good that came out of 2005, so let me put 2005 behind me and start looking forward to 2006. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE, SEE YOU NEXT YEAR..............

New Bathroom















Well here are some photos of the old vs. new bathroom, we put a new liner over the old tub, new walls, new floor, the vanity is only about 2 years old, new trim and the same old crapper (works like a charm). It will hopefully be a long time before anything is needed in this bathroom. Faye is very happy with the end result, and we all know if Faye is happy, I am happy.

Merry Christmas everyone

This has got to be the most less is more Christmas EVER! Faye and I aren't into the Christmas season at all this year. That doesn't mean we don't care, it's just a matter of no tree, no gift exchange (with each other) or anything other than some lights on the house and a really cool 8 foot snowman in the front yard. We or should I say "I" really wasn't in the mood to go down and dig out 20 boxes of Christmas decorations and haul them upstairs just to turn around 3 weeks later to haul them all back down stairs. I was looking forward to preparing for our trip to China to adopt our baby, well santa decided that we couldn't go until early next year. We are still exchaging gifts with family and friends, we just got our bathroom re-done and we decided that was Christmas enough for the both of us. Hell I don't even think that we are sending out Christmas cards this year due to our hectic schedules. Who knows what is going on all I know is that I can't wait until it warms up and we can get back to summer in the great outdoors. So I just wanted to write a little blog wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and we hope everyone has a safe and exciting NEW YEAR. See everyone soon hopefully.

Man killed after making bomb threat at airport

http://news.yahoo.com/fc/business/aviation_security
Well you know what it is about freaking time that the air marshalls got to do what they get paid for. This will maybe show the rest of the world that this is what happens when you threaten airline security. People think it is funny to test the system, well this guy tested the wrong one. I think somewhere in the article it mentions he was mentally ill, well now he is dead. The person travelling with this guy should have notified the airlines before attempting to board the aircraft and maybe this could have been avoided, who knows. Any how I feel this person got exactly what they deserved and shows you threaten airline security, you just may pay the ultimate price.

I couldn't agree more ANDY.

I'm surprised CBS let him get away with this, even though many of us think he's 100% right.
AMEN, ANDY ROONEY !
Andy Rooney ! said on "60 Minutes" a few weeks back: I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers. The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black America. Try to have things like the UnitedCaucasianCollege Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America; and see what happens...Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door. Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball ga! me. I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, that is why there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE? I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion. I have the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off. When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the Law of Probability. I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English! My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours. I think the police should have every right to shoot your sorry a_ _(bottom) if you threaten them, after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word "freeze" or "stop" in English, see the above lines. I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business. We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document, and open to their interpretations. I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor. I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn't stop you from watching them. I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made, and continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better, and put your name on the building. It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid; and smack their little behinds when necessary, and say "NO!" I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries! I am sick of "Political Correctness." I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa; so how can they be "African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else. And if you don't like my point of view, tough... DON'T PASS IT ON...
