Who's in charge today? Oh, the "EXPRESS LANE NAZI"
The other day my son and I went to the grocery store to purchase some rice and to rent some movies for my wife who had came down with some sort of virus. After picking out some funny movies to keep our patient entertained to a couple of hours, we went on safari to find the box of rice that I needed to complete my chicken and rice soup. After several trips up and down several different isles we found our prize. The next thing I remember is my son asking me if I am OK. It seems that I my have "Blacked Out" for a brief moment after seeing the price of a 1 lbs. box of minute rice. Up to check we go. Upon arriving the "EXPRESS" 15 item or less lanes we find several people in line. No big deal, we have plenty of time. Unlike the lady behind us. While waiting our turn in line one of the "EXPRESS" checkers opens up, the lady behind me starts instructing myself to get in that line so we can get out of here before Christmas. I turn to tell this woman that there is an elderly lady still in line ahead of us when out of nowhere an older gentleman pushes his cart right up in front of everyone waiting in line ans proceeds to put his items up on the belt to purchase them. The "LADY/OBLIVION" behind me starts instructing the older gentleman that he has indeed cut in line and that he in no uncertain terms need to put his groceries back in his cart and get the hell back in line that this guy (pointing to me) is next in line not him! The older gentleman promptly apologized and gathered his items and reentered the "EXPRESS" line which has more than doubled in length since he made his terrible mistake of cutting in front of this "EXPRESS LANE NAZI". The "EXPRESS LANE NAZI" then instructed me to take his place in line, I was trying to persuade the elderly lady in front of me to go ahead of me, but she seemed concerned about making a wrong move in the presents of the "EXPRESS LANE NAZI" and refused to move up. Another lane opened and the elderly lady sprinted with her groceries to get checked out. I took my $5.00 box of minute rice to the open lane and proceeded to check before someone else felt the wraith of the "EXPRESS LANE NAZI"

Oklahoma Legend Lost!
The Rodeo Cowboy's Prayer:
Our gracious and heavenly Father, we pause in the midst of this festive occasion, mindful and thoughtful of the guidance that you have given us.
As cowboys, Lord, we don't ask for any special favors, we ask only that you let us compete in this arena, as in lifes arena. We don't ask to never break the barrier, or to draw around of steer that's hard to throw, or a chute fighting horse, or a bull that is impossible to ride. We only ask that you help us to compete as honest as the horses we ride and in the manner as clean and pure as the wind blows across this great land of ours.
So when we do make that last ride that is inevitable for all of us to make, to that place up there, where the grass is green and lush and stirrup high, and the water runs cool, clear, and deep -
You'll tell us as we ride in that our entry fees have been paid.
These things we ask - Amen.

McCain a war criminal? What's next?!?!
While I am not a huge fan of John McCain, I will have to say that he is more in line with my thoughts and beliefs than any other candidate. I am starting to think the the "OTHER" political party in this race is more then a little intimidated by McCain. While scanning the news today I came across this quote on: cbs.com June 30th, 2008 Is McCain's War Record Fair Game? In this article (Thankfully) Retired General Wesley Clark states that he doesn't think that McCain's service as a fighter pilot and prisoner of war was relevant to running the country. OK, a little hypocritical since he ran for President strictly on his military record. Then on down in the article a sad piece of excrement on display for the world to see. Statement like: Critics have accused McCain of war crimes for bombing targets in Hanoi in the 1960's. A lot of people don't know that McCain made a propaganda film will in captivity. Getting shot down, tortured, and then doing propaganda for the enemy is not command experience. Then my personal favorite: Honestly, besides being tortured, what did McCain do to excel in the military? With all of this mean spirited stupidity flying around all ready it looks like it is going to be a long campaign season. It really is no wonder that the best and the brightest do not want to run for the Presidency. Why would you put yourself or your family through this kind of "MUCK RAKING"?
