The second amendment reads;
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Subject: Today Poll on 2nd Ammendment
Attorney General Holder says, "WE HAVE NO RIGHT TO POSSESS GUNS."
(What Constitution??)
TAKES 3 SECONDS ... PLEASE DO IT AND PASS IT ON.
Guess they were not happy with the poll results the first time, so USA Today is running another one...Vote Now.
Attorney General Eric Holder, has already said this is one of his major issues. He does not believe the 2nd Amendment gives individuals the right to bear arms. This takes literally 2 clicks to complete. Please vote on this gun issue question with USA Today. Then pass the link on to all the folks you know. Hopefully the results will be published later this month.

Dave Took 4th Place In The Navistar Rodeo Competition.
.jpg)
Dave took 4th place in the Navistar Rodeo competition yesterday.
He was so happy last night when they announced his name at the banquet....he is still smiling! He was amongst 11 others - all top in their field - so he feels honored. When the head person began by saying "and 4th place knows to someone I know personally...."
I knew it was Dave.
He is now considered one of "Team Navistar" that gets to compete in the annual nationwide SuperTech event in Sept; I believe this year in Pittsburgh. We head to downtown Chicago this afternoon after some "round table discussions" he is involved with.
YEAH David!
...not bad for an old fart!

Gabe and Kathy came up with a new recipe for the G6 web site. Try it at your own risk.
Note: Gabe if you have trouble find the ingredients at your local store there is a reason for that.
Rocky Mountain Oysters Yuk!

Being Green
This was sent to me from my cousin and how true it is:
Being Green
Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were truly recycled.
But we didn't have the green thing back in our day.
Grocery stores bagged our groceries in brown paper bags, that we reused for numerous things, most memorable besides household garbage bags, was the use of brown paper bags as book covers for our schoolbooks. This was to ensure that public property, (the books provided for our use by the school) was not defaced by our scribblings. Then we were able to personalize our books on the brown paper bags.
But too bad we didn't do the green thing back then.
We walked up stairs, because we didn't have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks.
But she was right. We didn't have the green thing in our day.
Back then, we washed the baby's diapers because we didn't have the throwaway kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy-gobbling machine burning up 220 volts -- wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing.
But that young lady is right; we didn't have the green thing back in our day.
Back then, we had one TV, or radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of the state of Montana. In the kitchen, we blended and stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not Styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity.
But she's right; we didn't have the green thing back then.
We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull.
But we didn't have the green thing back then.
Back then, people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service. We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 23,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest burger joint.
But isn't it sad the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn't have the green thing back then?
Pass this on to another selfish old person who needs a lesson in conservation from a smartass young person.
