For those of you who don’t know, I have recently thrown together a blog for my friend Shawna Barabas. I grew up with her in sunday school back in SLO. She has just landed over in Turkey with her boyfriend (who is native to that area).
So in case your interested on the difference of Turkey from the U.S. of A. You can run by her site at Wherever I May Roam.com
A friend, Eric Baity, sent me this today. I thought it was great.

A teacher in a small Vermont town asks her class how many of them are John Kerry fans. Not really knowing what a John Kerry fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raise their hands except one boy.
The teacher asks Johnny why he has decided to be different. Johnny says, “I’m not a John Kerry fan.” The teacher says, “Why aren’t you a John Kerry fan?”
Johnny says, “I’m a George Bush fan.” The teacher asks why he’s a George Bush fan.The boy says, “Well, my mom’s a George Bush fan and my dad’s a George Bush
fan, so I’m a George Bush fan!”
The teacher is kind of angry, because this is Vermont, so she asks, “What if your mom was a moron and your dad was an idiot, what would that make you?”
Johnny says, “That would make me a John Kerry fan!
Sat down at the CDA IHOP today for our weekly meetings. Marty, who is the owner of Shooter’s Supply, a local gun/pawn shop brought in the rifle that is gonna be the grand prize at the banquet in Sept. It was excellent! A true work of beauty.
We were passing it around the table in the middle of IHOP, so we got a few stares, but I’ll bet they were all jealousy stares… It is a might attractive rifle. I’m heading down to his gun shop to take photos of it for the Lake Country FNRA website I’m working on. The picture you see on the homepage was just taken off the Christiansen Arms website, mine will be much better. I’ll drop a link to em maybe tomarrow.
Until next meeting….
Howdy!
I havn’t posted in the last couple days due to internet problems… so I’m posting from elsewhere. I should be back and fully operational soon. But I’ve come across a few things that you might find interesting.

Before you rip on the photography. I, uhh…. ment to do that.
Tonite was the Cruisin’ Coeur d’Alene Hot Rod Run. An excellent show for classic and custom rod fans. They block off all of downtown, open the kegs, clear the streets and let some mighty sweet rides roll around and around downtown.
The best is the flame throwing some of them rods can do. These fellers had one spittin flame 20 ft behind them. I really wish I coulda caught it on film, but everytime they fired off, I wasn’t ready, or in a bad spot. Theres always next year. So, uhh…. stick around.
And at one point on the strip, these guys constantly supply water to the asphalt, so as the next muscle rod rolls over it, they do their best burn out. It was great, this one feller did an excellent peel out, only to almost hit a bike cop who was sticking a little too far out in the street. Haha! So he scolded them. It wasn’t that risky, but funny none the less.
Also, I don’t care who you are or where you’ve been. You’ll never see more pretty girls in one place than a big downtown event in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.
Insane.
Interesting read on Saddams realtionship with Al Qaeda…
To spoil the ending:
Obviously, Saddam was no Islamist. Saddam supported these groups, not because he believed in their cause — indeed, they would likely have turned on him at some point — but because doing so bolstered his standing in the Arab world and harmed his enemies, especially the Americans. In war, the enemy of my enemy is often my friend.
I am creating a black list here, folks. If you like your freedoms, then you will not support, in any way, these here folks:
Martin Sheen, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jodie Foster, Ellen DeGeneres, David Duchovny, Sharon Stone, Meg Ryan, Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore, Mark Wahlberg, Drew Barrymore, Chris Rock, Danny DeVito, Rhea Pearlman, Jack Black, Matthew Perry, Josh Brolin, Diane Lane, Marisa Tomei, Billy Crystal, Larry David, Rob Reiner, Aaron Sorkin, Larry Gelbart, Brett Ratner, Tom Hayden, Arianna Huffington, Spike Jonze, Kelly Lynch, Bill Maher, Camryn Manheim, Viggo Mortensen and Leelee Sobieski.
Poor Jack Black…. He’s the only one I liked too. Why, Jack?!?! WHHHHYYY!? Yer supposed to be rock n roll!! Not dirty liberal! Don’t you like the NUGE!!!?? Ted Nugent Rocks!! And he’s not a filthy leftist/socialist! Call me, Jack… we gotta talk about this.
Back on track, all of the ones listed above (Minus Barbara Streisand, who is busy making “Meet The Fockers”) were all guests at the special, lefty-slob-liberals-only showing of The Big Fat Slob Michael Moore’s Film called �Fahrenheit 9/11″.
Basically, so I read, it’s just a big fat bash on the Bush Administration, the war in Iraq, and how much Michael Moore is fond of eating fatty fried foods till it shows really bad. Okay, I made that last part up. But it’s true none the less.
The last female who is listed there was quoted as saying this (fiction) film �should be required for everyone in America to see as part of their education in high schools.� Hah! what a crock of…. Maybe she missed the part in school where learning tends to be based on the real story… not some sad lonley mans idea of the story.
So, new rule, boycott hollywood. But you should already know that. No more giving your money to these a$$hats. They don’t deserve it.
Carrie Ann and a bunch of her family, are flying out today. They’re goin to the super-fun, always cool, always interesting country of Sweden. They claim to have family over there somewhere… but we’ll see the pics when she gets back. I can’t really say I know much about the place. My concerns tend to stick the the homeland.
I should of had her read Frank J’s Tips on how to deal with airline terrorists, before she left.
My favorites:
* The airline pillows are too small to smother a terrorist. If you need to smother a terrorist, politely ask your flight attendant for a blanket.
* As in Die Hard and Passenger 57, the best way to avoid the initial terrorist attack is to be in the bathroom. If someone complains about you being in there so long, tell him you’re fighting terrorism.
* If you are about to fight a terrorist in hand to hand combat in the aisle, first yell to him, “You’re about to experience some major turbulence!” because that will be so cool.

Dads yellow ribbon just fer Heath. Like my photoshopped plate? |
I Just emailed out the sign design to the feller makin our big electric sign. So that will look sweet above the glass doors we will have put in. Just started on the knotted pine wall that will seperate the shop area from the floor display room. Then we gotta get us some nice trophy mounts and a wood burning stove. It should look sweet next to the poker tables.
Everyone tell the greatest fam in the world, happy 30th anniversary!

Happy Birthday mom. Love you. How old are you now? 65? 70?

Heath called today again. Told me about when they completed basic over in Missouri, they somehow had access to a list of the privates who were booted from basic training as well as listing the reason why.
I’ll tell you the couple funny ones. The first one was booted (deservingly) fer ‘homosexual conduct’ . He’s what we like to call, in plain American… a fag. (*spit) Their lot in life is to be ridiculed. They make this choice early on, and mostly because other fags and liberals influence them to be. And it’s funny cos ‘homosexual conduct’ is kind of a broad term. It could be a number of things he did. Maybe soliciting….haha…or gawking at the other guys in the shower room. okay… thats enuff on this one. gittin’ sick.
The other one (my favorite) was a bed wetter. Haha! Thats not somethin I would want on my resume.
• Failed Basic Military Police Training due to wetting the bed.
Next is pretty bad too. The guy was booted for V.D. That is……. Vinereal Disease. Thats when you got warts on yer ‘business’. Not something you want to have on broadcast.
Well, Heath is currently down in Georgia at the Airborne Training Center. He will be doing several jumps over the next couple weeks, with a couple of them being at nite. I’m sooo jealous. That lucky slob. How come he gets to have all the fun? Why did my back have to have stupid surgery? Life should be fair, Dang It!
Oh well…. what can you do?
Well, don’t tell Jared, but I think Heath’s education in the military will carry him farther than Jareds. Yep, good ole ‘buddy buddy’ just didn’t quite hit it off like he thought he would.
For those of you who arn’t familiar with what Jared did in the Air Force while in Qatar, this post should clarify things.
Jared has always been really “extra special” his whole life. He knows this, because his mother tells him so. But the lad has a good heart, and would never do a fellow man wrong.
But over in Qatar, the Air Force was making some cut backs on the mounted machine guns for their fighter jets.
So, here is a snapshot of what they had Jared doing for them.
