To All My Friends...

After today I am starting to look back at my life and examine all the mistakes I have made. Its hard for a man to admit when he is wrong and even harder to confront himself. Over the last month I have put on a fake smile and pretended that everything was ok but when in reality I have put myself in a hole. From the outside I am a blessed person but on the inside I keep alot hidden. I have really great family and I'm lucky to have supportive friends that care about me. With out all of them I don't know how I would make it through the hard times. Currently I am try to put my life back together and I'm doing it one day at a time. Some days are easier than other but I keep pushing forward. I really don't care if some people think I'm just being emotional. Writing for me has always been a release. Ive been to bottled up and tense lately that I need I really couldn't take it anymore. I will not be beat by the things I have no control over. I can only learn from my mistakes and try to live a better life. I miss the life I use to have and the people that were in it but that's all part of life. I look back and find comfort in the memories and move on in life. I just really wanted to say thank you to everyone that has been here for me lately. I cant even begin to explain how much that means to me. I truly do love you all.-Mike-

Die Young

Well they just said that the social security funds will run out in 2037. This is pretty shitty since I will only be 54. So what happens when I have to retire? Will I be able to retire. We all know our future looks very bleak and no one seems to be doing anything about it. So basically we are on our own. I honestly feel pretty shafted since I have been paying social security since Ive had a job and I wont see any of that when I retire. Why should I have to keep paying this money? I feel like I should be able to keep that money since it will never be paid back to me. Now I kinda wanna die young. Canada here I come!

Food For Thought

So I keep hearing about all of these endangered species and how soon none will be left for future generations to see. Well call me a moron but I figure that if we were to eat endangered species then they would never become extinct. Think about it if we eat them then there becomes a reason to breed them and make sure there are enough to go around. Call me patriotic but if the Bald Eagle is endangered then we should start eating them. It could be the new 4th of July tradition. Endangered species problem solved!

Most Racist Thing Ive Ever Heard....

So this morning I get in the car ready to start another day. I turn on the radio and it happened to be on 93.7 The Arrow. Of course Walton & Johnson are on the air running their mouth about useless crap. This morning really surprised me and truly showed their racist nature. "Supposedly" there is a bill being passed around congress to pay out a settlement to the families of African-American slaves. Granted if this is a real bill I do not agree with it but Walton & Johnson took it to far by saying quote "The way Africa is now I think we did them a favor by bringing them over here" Then they went on to talk about how we shouldn't have to pay them for slavery and then with another racist quote "I want a slave if were going to have to pay for it, might as well do the crime". If that isn't racist i don't know what is. Something to think about? I think so.

The Way of The Monkey....

Sometimes in life you find you can only be so cool but never this cool.

Free At Last?....

So there is something I thought about a long time ago and lately I have thought about it some more. When I hear about people being sentenced to 2 or 3 consecutive life sentences in prison, it made me wonder. What if a person is sentenced to life and while locked up he suffers a heart attack. Lets say this person is clinically dead. For five minutes this person that is serving life in prison lies dead. The EMT's show up to work on him and with a miracle they bring this person back to life. Since this person was serving a life sentence and he technically died, is that considered time served? Maybe its just me but I find that to be a pondering question. Could this person appeal the remaining time in prison and if so would the jury be bias and look at his past crime and keep his punishment towards him? Sometime to think about......

The Road of Life...

As you drive down the road of life you will see many different sights. You can experience something new around every corner. You will also find that no road is with out bumps. No ride in life is fun when your doing it on your own. Together you can share the joys or the ride. There will be occasions when you hit a pot hole and you may even get a flat tire. Together you can fix the problems and get back on the road. When you run out of fuel, just refill. When you love something you don't leave it behind. You keep it running and rolling down the road. Turn up the music and roll the windows down. Feel the breeze in your hair and enjoy the ride.
