BUBBA AND THE DEBT CEILING

I am one of those people that pick his nose and not his friends. That means I have very starched conservative friends along with some very liberals ones. As you can imagine this creates some very interesting conversations. Never more than when the lefties decide to visit when the righties are already there.

Now one conversation always comes up, the debt ceiling. Everyone sees it as a problem but no one seems to have the answer. That is up to yesterday. My very good friend Bubba Jones came by that day. I had a leftie there and righty and the debt ceiling was being discussed at length.

Bubba came in and sIt quietly listening to what everyone was saying. As always their answer to the problem, seem to make no sense at all.

I turned to Bubba, ”What’s you take on the debt ceiling?”

“It’s like this you see. You come home one day and the main sewage line that runs down the street has stopped up. Every house in the neighborhood is up to the ceiling in crap.

Now you gotta make a decision. Do you raise your ceilings or pump out the poop.”

Thank you Bubba I finally understand what these no it all’s have been trying to explain to me for the last three years.


The History of Beer and Us

For those that don’t know history … Here is a condensed version: 

Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer and would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter. 

The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer and the invention of the wheel. The wheel was invented to get man to the beer. These were the foundation of modern civilization and together were the catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups: 
1. Liberals, and
2. Conservatives. 

Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented, they just stayed close to the brewery. That’s how villages were formed. 

Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to BBQ at night while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of what is known as the Conservative movement.. 

Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned to live off the conservatives by showing up for the nightly BBQ’s and doing the sewing, fetching, and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the Liberal movement. 

Some of these liberal men eventually evolved into women. Those became known as girlie-men. Some noteworthy liberal achievements include the domestication of cats, the invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the concept of Democratic voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that conservatives provided. 

Over the years conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most powerful land animal on earth, the elephant. Liberals are symbolized by the jackass. 

Modern liberals like imported beer (with lime added), but most prefer white wine or imported bottled water. They eat raw fish but like their beef well done. Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard liberal fare.. Another interesting evolutionary side note: most of their women have higher testosterone levels than their men. Most social workers, personal injury attorneys, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood and group therapists are liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule because it wasn’t fair to make the pitcher also bat. 

Conservatives drink domestic beer, mostly Bud or Miller. They eat red meat and still provide for their women. Conservatives are big game hunters, rodeo cowboys, lumberjacks, construction workers, firemen, medical doctors, police officers, engineers, corporate executives, athletes, members of the military, airline pilots and generally anyone who works productively. Conservatives who own companies hire other conservatives who want to work for a living. 

Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the producers and decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe Europeans are more enlightened than Americans.. That is why most of the liberals remained in Europe when conservatives were coming to America. They crept in after the Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying to get more for nothing. 

Here ends today’s lesson in world history.


 

The Donald

Me personally, I am not a Donald Trump fan. The fact he is self-centered and arrogant bothers me a little.  The fact that he can declare bankruptcy and come out the other side a billionaire makes me wonder about our laws.

Then there is his television show. It leaves me wanting to say, “Donald you are fired.”

Now you know how I feel about the Donald. This still doesn’t stop him from being right sometimes. The following is what he thinks of Obama Care and I totally agree with him.

Considering he is right about this, I should try to forgive him for the above. The truth is I tried but that hair  always gets in the way. I just can’t overlook that one bad quality in the man.

The Donald:

Let me get this straight . . . 
We’re going to be “gifted” with a health care
plan we are forced to purchase and

fined if we don’t, 
Which purportedly covers at least
ten million more people,
without adding a single new doctor,
but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents

written by a committee whose chairman
says he doesn’t understand it

passed by a Congress that didn’t read it but
exempted themselves from it, 
and signed by a Dumbo President who smokes
with funding administered by a treasury chief who
didn’t pay his taxes
for which we’ll be taxed for four years before any
benefits take effect

by a government which has 
already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare
all to be overseen by a surgeon general
who is obese

and financed by a country that’s broke!!!!!

‘What the hell could possibly go wrong?’

 


MY 2012 BUCKET LIST

My Bucket List for 2012

HERE IS ALL I WANT

Obama: Gone!

Borders: Closed!

Congress: Obey it’s own laws

Language: English only

Culture: Constitution, and the Bill of Rights!

Drug Free: Mandatory Drug Screening before Welfare

NO freebies to: Non-Citizens!


 


What Religion Are You???

Ask me what religion I am I would most likely say Southern Baptist. In truth I am really not. To say you are a part of a religious group one should agree totally with the teachings of that group.

Because I don’t totally agree with any church. I suppose I am just a simple every day Christian. That isn’t always a easy thing to be in the south.

I claim the title Baptist based on the fact that I was raise S.B. and have spent most of my life in that organization. It is true I have strayed away a couple of times and joined other groups that were sure they held the only set of keys to the kingdom. 

For some reason I don’t feel you will be ask for a membership letter when and if you make it to the pearly gate. Then on the other hand I can’t be called a expert in that field either. I have never seen the  pearly gates. I have been close once or twice though.

Like Solomon I to have gazed upon the great religions of the world. This is what I found.

1. Muslims do not recognize Jews as God’s Chosen People. 

2. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah. 

3. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian world. 
 
4. Baptists do not recognize each other at the liquor store.
 
I hope this sheds some light on things. If not just thank God you aren’t tied down by religion and you are just a simple Christian. 

Super Monday

There were lots of chips and pizza sold yesterday. All the water towers in the US most likely couldn’t hold all the beer. Yet I bet I know what the top sales are today.

I only wish I owned stock in aspirin and and Alka-Seltzer this morning.

 

Have a great day and I hope you aren’t one of the many that feel like the only thing you want to hear today is pop,pop fizz,fizz.

Notice I didn’t say any thing about yesterday’s winner. I stopped wishing when the Saints got knocked out by SF.

 

Most likely why I don’t feel bad today.

 


The Debates

What has and has not been learned in the debates

 

First, if you are running for president you should not know how to make money. You should happily pay your share of taxes and then add a bunch more to the amount owed. This will prove you regretted making any in the first place.

If you have been married before, it is more important to hear what your ex-wife has to say than what you have to say. If you don’t give up when the media says you should. They will compare you to a cock roach in a microwave.

If your biggest accomplishment in life is that, you have delivered thousands of babies. You are an idiot and shouldn’t even be ask questions. After all what do you know about anything?

If you mention you go to church or believe in Christ then you are some kind of religious zealot. Who needs one of them in the white house? After all God, ask the president what to do every day.

A while back if you were a black man, with a blemished past you got a certain amount of grace. Today if you are a black republican man, you are just a stupid pizza delivery boy that tries to molest all the women in town.

Speaking of women, if you are a republican woman, you need to stay home, stay bare footed and take care of all those kids you have. You are too stupid to try to balance a budget. After all just because you can raise a dozen or so kids does not mean you know anything about a budget.

 

What no one is saying is this.

1. If elected this is how I will change things.

2. This is how long it will take.            

3. This is how much the plan will cost you the taxpayer.

Finally, no one has said, “If I make it through this blood bath, this is how I plan to beat Obama.”

It may no longer be possible for a republican to win against Obama. The winner of this race will already be beat up and cut up more than Obama could ever do himself.

These idiots have all stood around shutting each other in the head. Most likely the last one standing will turn his weapon to his own temple and pull the trigger.

Obama will then say, “I win by default. I am still alive.”

 Sadly, he will be right.

What a sad day, Obama, standing on a pile of republican corpses while being sworn in.


WHY IS ONE ALRIGHT AND THE OTHER ISN’T

Tebow vs Muslims


TRAINS,PLANES AND MANY OTHER THINGS

Yes, trains, elevators,escalators and much more have I rode on my magical trip to and from New York City.

You see most days I take one of my old clunkers home, that needs driving, so my transportation at best, is uneventful. There are no elevators in my small town and just a few in the next large city. We tend to grow out and not up in this part of the country.

Let me see now. We left home at four A.M. Friday morning in my wife’s car. She drove us to the car lot. I am seldom allowed to drive her car. There we met my sister and brother and law in their suburban and went to the airport.

There we boarded what I call a medium size plane. At Atlanta we got on a really big wide body jet. At New York we met a black Cadillac SUV. Driver and all. Let me clue you in on why you should check around before setting up ground transportation in New York. The trip from the airport to the hotel was $160.00. The trip back after talking to the right person was $40.00. Never be scared to say is that the best you can do.

A the hotel. we rode an elevator seven floors to our room. This would be one of many elevator rides we would take on our visit.

Next we took a short walk and climbed on a double-deck tour bus. From the Rockettes we rode a town car back to the hotel. The next day we rode escalators all the way to the top floor of Macy’s and later four levels under ground to the subways. Of course we rode the subway. One afternoon we rode the ferry across to Staten Island.

The last morning we got up before day light and rode a yellow taxi over to see Regis and Kelly tape a morning show. I guess I should say Kelly minus Regis. He has gone on to greener pastures.

Then a Lincoln SUV took us to the airport. This time the plane wasn’t as big and when we arrived at Atlanta we were forced to take the tram over to the other side. There we climbed on a jet that wasn’t much larger than a crop duster and flew back to Jackson. Back in my sister’s SUV then to my Wife’s car. She brought me in this morning. As of now I am back in a 1999 Ford F150 with a hand shaker.

Easy come easy go I always say.

Next time maybe I will tell you about all the great people we met in New York. Who ever said the natives aren’t friendly needs to go with us the next time.


A New Business

It’s been a while, since I have posted last. To say I have been busy would be an understatement. A couple of months ago I made an offer on the car lot I worked on. My boss wants to cut way back, and he took me up on my offer. Maybe I offered to quickly. You know the old saying, “First speaks looses.”

I have been in the car business my whole life so the amount of paper work shouldn’t have surprised me, but it did. Mountains of it. License for this and license for that. Rims of copies of bank statements. You name it and someone is asking for it. Nothing seems private with these people.

I am sure my credit score has gone down from being looked at by so many people. The state, the auction, the bank, the floor plan company. I am sure a couple of others, I didn’t even know that I was authorizing. You know, sign here and here and initial these five places. Maybe it isn’t that bad, but it certainly seemed that way.

I think most people think of used car salesmen as thugs. Well, try to get a dealer license. I think they went to the grave yard to see if my great granddaddy really died on the date I said.

Anyway most of that is now done. I am in business. The only thing now is I am setting in a total mess. Half the carpet is down and most the paint. The furniture is scattered in three garages and a warehouse.

I have enough folders to fill a filing cabinet. The only problem I can’t get to it to fill it.

This afternoon after digging through a mountain of junk I saw my computer. I decide to share my frustrations with you guys.

If you don’t care, don’t worry about it. I haven’t found anyone else in the last month that cared either. Well, I take that back. They did care about getting a check.

I can’t wait until someone writes me one. It will be nice to make a deposit instead of a withdrawal for a change.
Oh what do you think about the name. Officially, it is A CAR LOT LLC. The short name is A CAR LOT.

I can’t wait to my customers tell their friends where they bought their car.

Pete: Were you get the car?

Customer: A Car Lot.

Pete: I know you got it at a car lot but where?

Customer: A Car Lot.

Pete: Man why you always gotta be a _ _ _ hole.

Customer: What you mean man. I told you I got the car at A Car Lot. Now take what you called me back.

LOL

Have great day.
