Wise Advice

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside

people. He said, "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all.

One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity,

guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority,and ego.

The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness,

benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grand son thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:

"Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed."

Political Correctness

"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

Dunno how right this is

Your Life Path Number is 7

Your purpose in life is to find truth and meaning You are very spiritual, and you are interested in the mysteries of life. You are quite analytical and a great thinker. You have many theories and insights. A life of solitude is perfect for you. You need time to think and do things your way. In love, you are quite charming. You attract many with your confidence and wit. While you enjoy being alone, sometimes you take it to an extreme. You can become too isolated, shutting out loved ones and friends. Express yourself a little bit more, and you'll be surprised where it takes you!

Ok, now this is just plain scary.
I don't think he is 4 times the weight of a normal 8 year old kid thou, not being 5 foot tall. But still, a bit on the heavy side..

Who's the racist?

The answer is, we all are, so what! Since before we came out of the trees we've been killing what we don't know or trust.

Someone else besides me finally said it. how many are actually paying attention to this?

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian
Americans, Arab Americans, Native Americans, etc. and then there are just Americans.

You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. You
call me "White boy," "Cracker," "Honkey," "Whitey,"
"Caveman" and that's OK.

But when I call you, Nigger, Kike, Towelhead, Sand-nigger, camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink you call me a racist.

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you,
so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?

You have the United Negro College Fund.
You have Martin Luther King Day.
You have Black History Month.
You have Cesar Chavez Day.
You have Yom Hashoah
You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi
You have the NAACP.
You have BET.

If we had WET(White Entertainment Television) we'd be
racists.
If we had a White Pride Day you would call us racists.
If we had White History Month, we'd be racists.
If we had any organization for only whites to "advance"
our lives, we'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce.
Wonder who pays for that?

If we had a college fund that only gave white students
scholarships, you know we'd be racists. There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US , yet if there were "White colleges" that would be a racist college.

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were
marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists.

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and
you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists.

You rob us, carjack us, and shoot at us. But, when a white
police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black
drug-dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist.

I am proud. But, you call me a racist.

Why is it that only whites can be racists?

There is nothing improper about this email.

Let's see which of you are proud enough to forward it.

Birthdays

I have come to the conclusion that I hate my birthday by and large. Always seem to get fairly depressed right around the time of my birthday, rather annoying really. But that is life now isn't it...

1 more year down the grain and I am no farther ahead than I was last year (which would explain the depression I guess) I really need to find a steady job so I have so bloody hope of getting my own damn place to live, then I will find something new to be depressed about I guess. =S

So sayeth John

this and that

Waiting on the GMs in WoW to actually do something and restore my characters to there pre-hacked state, takes forever it seems, but I guess they are dealing with a rash of these problems, seems someone got Trojans in to a LOT of the player base and fucked a lot of accounts up (by the way kiddies, always double check your nice firewall, anti-virus and spyware scanners are all working and up to date). Gotta wonder what they really gain from it thou? selling the gold to other fools? the gold will be deleted I am sure, and hopefully the paypal accounts they use will get frozen and the money taken back and refunded to the poor sods who spent real money on electronic game gold.

Ideas

ok, so I am looking at ideas that I might be able to use if I can manage to get my mother and grand mother not to sell my grandmothers house, but leave it to me instead.
place needs some updating but that is pretty normal and not so bad. looking at what I can do to make sure the place uses less power/gas. Tankless water heater, recalculating hot water system for one will make things a little better, partially cause a tankless takes up a lot less room than a normal water heater, but they are supposed to be more efficient as well, which is always good. and the recirculating system helps avoid the loss of water from running the damn thing till ay get hot water at the faucet =)

Would be nice to be able to use LED bulbs thru out the house, a lot less power there (make up for my computers which are always power hogs), even nicer if I could pull off some solar power, 1kW system is 20K thou =S that is a heck of a chunk of change, but that is a full kit SPS Ultimate Home Power System

would be nice to play with, ought to figure out how much power that house pulls and if that size system could take most of the house load, would pay for itself after a year or two I am sure. Guess I should come up with a Kill-A-Watt and start measuring actual energy loads for the shit I use most of the time and see what I end up with and start figuring what my true power load is, and then see what I can reduce it by HI HI

well I think i am going to try and sleep now =S damn-my vampire ways, have to force myself to sleep more often than not at night, day i can fall asleep damn near like a light, but at night takes an act of congress to get my body to sleep

Interesting Read true

This letter sent to Tennessee Senator Bill Frist from a retired border
patrol agent, and it has more common sense than all the bull being
spewed from the Senate, with the exception of a few sensible
representatives.

Dear Senator Frist:

There is a huge amount of propaganda and myths circulating about
illegal aliens, particularly illegal Mexican, Salvadorian, Guatemalan
and Honduran aliens.

#1. Illegal aliens generally do NOT want U.S. citizenship. Americans
are very vain thinking that everybody in the world wants to be a U.S.
citizen. Mexicans, and other nationalities want to remain citizens of
their home countries while obtaining the benefits offered by the
United States such as employment, medical care, in-state tuition,
government subsidized housing and free education for their offspring.
Their main attraction is employment and their loyalty usually remains
at home. They want benefits earned and subsidized by middle class
Americans. What illegal aliens want are be nefits of American
residence without paying the price.

#2. There are no jobs that Americans won't do. Illegal aliens are
doing jobs that Americans can't take and still support their families.
Illegal aliens take low wage jobs, live dozens in a single residence
home, share expenses and send money to their home country. There are
no jobs that Americans won't do for a decent wage.

#3. Every person who illegally entered this nation left a home. They
are NOT homeless and they are NOT Americans. Some left jobs in their
home countries. They come to send money to their real home as
evidenced by the more than 20 billion dollars sent out of the country
each year by illegal aliens. These illegal aliens knowingly and
willfully entered this nation in violation of the law and therefore
assumed the risk of detection and deportation. Those who brought their
alien children assumed the responsibility and risk on behalf of their
children.

#4. Illegal aliens are NOT critical to the economy. Illegal aliens
constitute less than 5% of the workforce. However, they reduce wages
and benefits for lawful U.S. residents.

#5. This is NOT an immigrant nation. There are 280 million native born
Americans. While it is true that this nation was settled and founded
by immigrants (legal immigrants), it is also true that there is not a
nation on this planet that was not settled by immigrants at one time
or another.

#6. The United States is welcoming to legal immigrants. Illegal aliens
are not immigrants by definition. The U.S. accepts more lawful
immigrants every year than the rest of the world combined.

#7 There is no such thing as the "Hispanic vote". Hispanics are white,
brown, black and every shade in between. Hispanics are Republicans,
Democrats, Anarchists, Communists, Marxists and Independents. The
so-called "Hispanic vote" is a myth. Pandering to illegal aliens to
get the Hispanic vote is a dead end.

#8. Mexico is NOT a friend of the United States. Since 1848 Mexicans
have resented the United States. During World War I Mexico allowed
German Spies to operate freely in Mexico to spy on the U.S. During
World War II Mexico allowed the Axis powers to spy on the U.S. from
Mexico . During the Cold War Mexico allowed spies hostile to the U.S.
to operate freely. The attack on the Twin Towers in 2001 was cheered
and applauded all across Mexico. Today Mexican school children are
taught that the U.S. stole California, Arizona, new Mexico and Texas.
If you don't believe it, check out some Mexican textbooks written for
their schoolchildren.

#9. Although some illegal aliens enter this country for a better life,
there are 6 billion people on this planet. At least 1 billion of those
live on less than one dollar a day. If wanting a better life is a
valid excuse to break the law and sneak into America, then let's allow
those one billion to come to America and we'll turn the USA into a
Third World nation overnight. Besides, there are 280 million native
born Americans who want a better life. I'll bet Bill Gates and Donald
Trump want a better life. When will the USA lifeboat be full? Since
when is wanting a better life a good reason to trash another nation?

#10. There is a labor shortage in this country. This is a lie. There
are hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of American housewives,
senior citizens, students, unemployed and underemployed who would
gladly take jobs at a decent wage.

#11. It is racist to want secure borders. What is racist about wanting
secure borders and a secure America? What is racist about not wanting
people to sneak into America and steal benefits we have set aside for
legal aliens, senior citizens, children and other legal residents?
What is it about race that entitles people to violate our laws, steal
identities, and take the American Dream without paying the price? For
about four decades American politicians have refused to secure our
borders and look after the welfare of middle class Americans. These
politicians have been of both parties. A huge debt to American society
has resulted. This debt will be satisfied and the interest will be
high. There has al ready been riots in the streets by illegal aliens
and their supporters. There will be more. You, as a politician, have a
choice to offend the illegal aliens who have stolen into this country
and demanded the rights afforded to U.S. citizens or to offend those
of us who are stakeholders in this country. The interest will be steep
either way. There will be civil unrest. There will be a reckoning. Do
you have the courage to do what is right for America? Or, will you bow
to the wants and needs of those who don't even have the right to
remain here? There will be a reckoning. It will come in November of
this year, again in 2008 and yet again in 2010. We will not allow
America to be stolen by third world agitators and thieves. < /FONT>
