Well…it has been an interesting day today and I made a little money so that is cool….I have been sitting here trying to figure out what to write for the last one but I am still struggling with the whole idea of a topic….it is my least favorite day of the month after all…have to pay rent tomorrow…hmmm, so maybe that makes tomorrow the least favorite day? They’re both pretty bad…I did get to take a little drive today with the top down and that lifted my spirits somewhat but with taking the entire week off from cocktails…there will be huge quantities of boredom to deal with…and, the shutdown of the gov’t is just too much…where the hell did the adults go? I have had enough of the right’s bullshit and this will be pinned on them and their extortion and terrorism….okay, that’s enough for now….need to start all over again tomorrow….

Here’s the worst part…
Well…finally did get to the last one for the month and it is one that just makes me shake my head at the crap the repubs are trying to pull with the government shutdown…what really pisses me off about his whole thing is that the voters rejected everything these idiots are now trying to blackmail the country into by not funding the government…and that is what repubs are all about…they can’t win in elections with their crazy-assed ideas so they try to rig the game with voter suppression and by holding the economy hostage…but, the worst part is what they have put int he CR that was sent to the senate…the so-called conscience clause that would allow any employer to refuse to cover anything they don’t like in their health plans…if this is allowed to go on, the first thing to go will be contraceptive care for women, and then you can bet these bastards would find numerous ways to continue to cut people and coverage until the care will be worthless. Maybe this will be a good thing…when we take the house back…maybe we’ll finally get to single payer and take the employer out of the loop entirely…please proceed repubs…
September 30th
Well….it was an okay day yesterday but I didn’t get much accomplished…was just in a funk and didn’t feel like doing much…I did watch the last “Breaking Bad” and it was pretty good…kind of figured they would kill Walt in the end and that was okay…I may just write an entire one about that later but who knows? I slept like crap and it appears the sleeping pills are no longer working so I need to try something else….not much to do today…I do have some chores to do around here along with the normal stuff but that is about it…no cooking even, just leftovers from the pork shoulder…starting to get tired of it so I may just have today’s dinner and then freeze the rest for soup…more later…
The delusions never stop…
Well…I am sitting here shaking my head about some comments that were made by one of the idiot repubs in congress where he thinks that the dems will agree to delay the implementation of the ACA since “they compromised on other parts of the law” and that the repubs have compromised from their earlier position that the whole law would need to be repealed and now they just want it delayed a year. Another year of hostage taking for what? This is like any thug extortionist saying “hey, we were going to kill 50 hostages but look how nice we are since we now only want to kill one”. Harry Reid needs to just tell them no…tell them to go ahead and crash the economy…since the polls are all saying that the whole country knows it is the repubs that are responsible. Then, what about the people like me that will finally be able to afford insurance? These crazy bastards don’t care about that…just making points for their rabid, ignorant base is the only thing they care about. Just wait until their corporate masters lose trillions when the meltdown happens….no more repubs…geez…
Cheating a little…
Well…as you can see, I’m still trying to get caught up for the month so I am going to cheat a little….just got back from the ride and found a really cool new trail…or I should say they just finished the trail so I took it just to see where it goes…it starts out as just a trail but then about 100 yards in it turns into an elevated boardwalk that goes for almost half a mile…just couldn’t believe that Kentwood would put that much money into a trail…but, it shortens up my ride by about a mile so I won’t be taking it too much….still pretty cool….more later…
September 29th
Well…it was a normal, boring day yesterday but the pork shoulder came out good so that is something…slept okay but still feel like crap today with a good sized headache that has to be caused by allergies…forgot to get allergy medicine yesterday so I’ll have to see if there is any here….I am looking forward to “Breaking Bad” tonight and that will be the focus of the day for me…after football and the races, that is….don’t have lot more to say right now…so, I won’t say it….more later…
Predators on the trail…
Well…almost forgot this one from the trail this morning…when I was on the last uphill to the park where I take my last break every day, there was just the strangest sight…a rabbit, or half a rabbit was laying in the middle of the trail…it looked like it had just been sliced in half with a knife and the front was gone…and the weirder thing is that about 50 yards up the hill, there was another one…just like the first one…the front gone and the back essentially intact. Now, I am really curious about what could do that around here…could be a dog but why just the front gone? Maybe alien dissection? Coyote? It will be a puzzle for a while anyway….
Oh, one last thing…just an observation…why would anyone put custom wheels on a Prius? Saw one in the parking lot of the trail in Kentwood today…just not right…..
September 28th
Well…running kind of late today but I did have to go out for groceries…just couldn’t pass up pork shoulder at 99 cents a pound and needed cocktail materials for “Breaking Bad” tomorrow night….making an 8 pound shoulder right now and can’t wait…it is going to be a little boring today with both Michigan and State on a bye week and no soccer that I can get…there may be a race to watch later, though…I’ll have to take a look…slept okay last night, I think, but I am still tired today so it must not have been that good…oh, well…it does look nice outside and it will be a long ride day with no wind to work against…other than that, not much to do today…I should clean and I might…I did get new wipers for the car and need to put those on since the ones on it just don’t work anymore…more later…
Another bunch of stupidity from Fox…
Well…was just reading a little nugget about the idiots over at Fox on Kos and I just can’t believe how stupid these folks are…on “Fox and friends” this week, the idiot Doocey tried to make the point that Obamacare is a failure because it has only covered 1% of the 15% of people that are uninsured in this country…never mind that the exchanges don’t open until the first of October and the coverage doesn’t start until January 1st…Obamacare is a failure because it hasn’t covered everyone before they sign up. The 1% they are talking about are the kids that get to stay on their parents policies until they are 26 and would not be able to afford insurance under the current plans…so, the way to look at this is that Obamacare is covering an extra 1% before it even starts….I am really getting tired of the right and Fox…they just don’t give a damn if they lie and lie and lie…they’re just not even trying to be “fair and balanced”…as it they ever were….geez….
Looks like the repubs are going to crash the economy…
Well…I have had enough of the political terrorists on the right using the economy as their hostage after they continue to lose elections…and the thing is, only a small fraction of the country want what they are selling…starving people, tax cuts for the rich, and unfettered corporate hegemony over the economy….this is not going to be pretty…and these assholes had no problem raising the debt limit 19 times while ole GW was in office…the only objection they have is that Obama is presidentin’ while black….I wonder when their corporate masters are going to get tired of losing trillions in equity while these idiots play with government…I have no other words…
