The Sidekick, The Angel, and The King!
Tough week for Hollywood and the tabloids with the deaths of Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, and Michael Jackson. The world will be less funny, beautiful, and musical without them.

Happy Birthday to a Good Ole' Boy!
The "The Balladeer" for the Ducks Of Hazard, Waylon Arnold Jennings was born today in 1937.
The self taught guitar player rose to prominence playing bass for Buddy Holly after the break-up of the crickets. He escaped death on Feb. 3, 1959 when he gave up his seat to the "Big Bopper" on that infamous airplane flight that killed Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson.
In the 70's he became associated with an informal group of musicians the worked outside of the Nashville corporate scene, known as the "Outlaws".

Will the madness ever end?
President Obama and the Dumbocrates have made overhauling the health care system a top priority and the President expects to have legislation on his desk by October. According to Bloomberg.com today, the House Health-Care Bill will include $600 BILLION in TAX INCREASES and $400 BILLION in CUTS to MEDICARE AND MEDICAID! I was under the impression that health care under the "NEW" administration was going to be "FREE" and that "WE" where going to make dramatic improvements in health care for all Americans, not increased taxes and decrease Medicare and Medicaid benefits by billions of dollars.
Ways and Means Committee Chairman, Charles Rangel (D-NY), said that the measure's cost will reach beyond the $634 BILLION proposed by President Obama as a down payment for the policy changes. When asked if the cost to overhaul the health care system would be more than a TRILLION, Rangel said, "the answer is yes."
I urge you to read the new story for yourself : http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aqLNecbH0dcg
I fear no one is listening!

Re: [OBLIVION WATCH!] Hypocrisy? What Hypocrisy? Your the Hypocrite!

Subject: [OBLIVION WATCH!] Hypocrisy? What Hypocrisy? Your the Hypocrite!
The HYPOCRISY of the left in this country is a subject that I sometimes ponder. Here are a few things that I see as hypocritical on the part of the left leaning citizens of this great country. Smoking marijuana is completely OK, but smoking or using tobacco products (unless you are of Native American descent and smoking for your religion or manufacturing for profit) are almost considered domestic terrorism. The death penalty, water boarding terror suspects, and prison sentences for child molesters are not acceptable, but abortion on demand for any reason should be accepted and even encouraged. Freedom of speech should be extended to everyone, especially terrorist (both foreign and domestic), illegal immigrants, socialist, communist, anti-war protesters, homosexuals, and liberals from all walks of life, but the average American family, Christians, military personnel (both active and veterans), capitalist, California beauty pageant contestants, and any other conservative leaning citizen. Increased taxes on the "RICH" are always welcomed, because "WE" need to get even with the "EVIL RICH" people in this country, who have truly won life's lottery and "SPREAD THE WEALTH" to the poor, the downtrodden, and the underprivileged. The government should also put increased taxes on pop, chips, tobacco, Big Macs, gasoline and beer, because poor people don't use these "UNHEALTHY" products and if they do the government should supplement their income so they can afford to use these products. I don't know about you but I find these things extremely confusing and troubling. These are just a few things I have touched on here. I have not touched on animal rights wackos, or the new religion of the eco-terrorist, global warming. The HYPOCRISY knows no bounds! I fear no one is listening!

Sam's 10 steps for survival:
Sam Walton the founder for Wal-Mart, had TEN rules for running a successful business. I think you can apply these rules to be a success at anything in life.
#1 - Commit to your business. Believe in it more than anyone does. Passion is at the top of the list of the skills you need to excel.
#2 - Share your profits with your employees. If you treat them as partners, together you will perform beyond your wildest dreams.
#3 - Motivate your partners. Set high goals, encourage competition and then keep score. Competition makes you better and stronger.
#4 - Communicate everything you possible can to our employees. You will be amazed at how a few snippets of information can transform a business into a powerhouse.
#5 - Appreciate everything your associates do for the business. Find ways to let your employees know that you value their contributions. Catch people doing a good job and let them know you notice.
#6 - Celebrate your success. Let people know their efforts have been successful and find some humor in your failure.
#7 - Figure out ways to get your employees talking and listen to everyone. Yes, you need to be heard. You also need to hear the other person's ideas, questions, and objections.
#8 - Exceed your customers expectations. Take care of the customers you have and they will take care of you by coming back and bring their friends.
#9 - Control your expenses better than your competition. Try to help your customers follow this rule. If you are not already watching your pennies, start now.
#10 - Swim Upstream. If everyone else is doing it one way, there is a good chance you can find your niche by going the opposite direction. Following the crowd leaves little room to maneuver.
Whether or not you like Wal-Mart, it is hard to argue with success. Wal-Mart just announced that it intends to create 22,000 new jobs in 2009. It is hard to argue with success.

The end of American Exceptionalism?
Today President Obama gave his "historical" speech from Cairo to the Muslims of the world.
"Given our interdependence, any world order that elevates one nation or group of people over another will inevitably fail."
This excerpt says three things to me :
#1 - Israel you are on your own.
#2 - That America does not deserve to be the beacon of FREEDOM for all the world to see.
#3 - That the American dream will soon be just that....a dream and not a reality.
I fear no one is listening!
