In eight more years, you will be a teenager.
My gift to you is the #1 song on the Billboard charts on the day that you were born.

I(n) Like Flint

Flint, Michigan reminds me of two things. Buicks and Grand Funk Railroad.
My father, who would buy a new car every 2 years or less had two Buick automobiles between 1964 and 1967. The first was a '65 Wildcat, followed by a '66 or '67 LeSabre. I never drove either, but my older brother told me that the LeSabre would flat out move! In my opinion, Buick made some nice looking cars. But no longer!
Grand Funk Railroad, though not one of my favorites, was one of the first "Power Bands" to emerge from the 1960's. The fact that they are not in the "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame" is a travesty.
I long for the good old days, when you could tell the year, make and model of a car from a glance a quarter mile away. And when you could hear three chords of a song and know the name and band.
Here's to the good old days!

Here's To Better Days

That's "Brownie"!

I was born in a small town. We had a dog that wandered. He was a good dog. He was a mutt. For a day or two he went missing.I remember my Mother going to the corner grocery store and finding our dog sleeping on the front step.She tried to get him into the car by calling out his name. The owner of the store came out and said " Ma'am, if that is your dog then please take him home.But that dog's name is not what you are calling him and he will not respond.We call him "Brownie". I think that dog just liked to wander. I like to wander also.However, wandering on the internet ain't what it used to be. Youtube sucks, Blogger.com sucks and Pogo.com sucks! Everything Sucks! No wonder I want to quit!

"Liberalism is a pessimistic faith because it never sees the potential in man, just his flaws. Rather than focusing on ways to free people so they can elevate themselves, liberalism instead concentrates on ways to subsidize people in their current misery.Liberalism is embarrassed by success and prosperity because independent and free people do not need liberals - above all, liberals need to be needed"(Cal Thomas).

Those words of wisdom (on a faded and yellowed 2"x2"newspaper cut out) are taped to the top door of my Kelvinator refrigerator/freezer. Also on that door are two photographs. One was taken almost 50 years ago and is of my sister and I dancing in the den. The other was taken almost 20 years ago and is of my child and I building a snowman in the backyard.

The point here is that I want to be reminded on a daily basis of the past, the present and the future. The past is my memory of my late sister. The present is the same old pledge by the same old Democratic hopefuls that nothing will change; We've got your back, slackers-just vote for us. The future is looking bright for my child(who will soon graduate from college and enter the tax paying workforce) as long as the liberals don't tax her out of existence.
