A Message from Bob

Friday Rant

The Presidential Conventions are now basically behind us. While I did watch much of both conventions, I did not watch them both in their entirety, primarily because I found them to be basically irritating. The Democratic Convention was like attending a “Rock Concert” playing bad music so loud you could barely hear the commentators. I did hang in however to hear Hillary speak as well as Billary, and at the GOP Convention, I wanted to hear what Sarah Palin had to say.

I found equal fault with both Conventions due to the media coverage. I did watch it on several channels and I would switch back and forth between Fox and CNN. Both were so interested in giving their spin on what was going on, and bringing in their “experts’, I found myself switching back and forth on a regular basis, trying to hear what was actually being said by the speakers.  With few exceptions, you basically got the media version of what was actually occurring.

The media is telling us what they want us to hear, when they wish us to hear it, and is supporting their chosen “ticket.” They will denigrate all those who disagree with their choice ­ period. Anyone who disagrees with what they put forward is simply a racist on one hand, a sexist on the other or a complete idiot. Isn't it time that the media reported on the news that does happen, and doesn't try to make it?

The reality of the conventions however, is that no matter what was said by either candidate of either party, the far left will support Obama and the far right will support McCain. The people in-between these two extremes are the ones who will have the final say, and these are the ones being pandered to by both parties and the media.

OK ­ after listening to all the rhetoric and promises, I am finally drawing some preliminary conclusions about the Races for the Office of President and Vice-President. While you may disagree with this opinion, it is the result of the impressions received so far.

I think that if Obama had picked Hillary Clinton as his VP, they would have been an unstoppable team. But I feel he did not pick Hillary as he most likely felt she was too powerful, and he would wind up having to deal with both Hillary and Billary on every issue. Instead he picked Joe Biden who is one of the “good old beltway boys” that wouldn't cause him any problems.

Barack Obama appears to be an empty suit that will do or say anything, directly or indirectly through his campaign team, to be the first black President of the United States. Granted he is a charismatic speaker but other than that, what other Freshman Senator with his experience, would have even been considered for the post in the first place. Neither Obama or Biden ever served in the military, and in fact Biden received five student draft deferments during the Vietnam War.

On the other hand, we have McCain. Granted his war hero status and commendable service to our country, I was confused with his choice for VP at first. It seemed it was simply a ploy to put a woman in the running to counter the black Obama.  After doing some research however, I find she is a Freshman Governor of Alaska, which is the largest State in the United States, was previously Mayor of her hometown and was involved in small town politics since 1992.  While none of these roles have anything to do with foreign relation qualifications, all are tough jobs where decisions have to be made on an ongoing basis. In my judgment this is a plus, and she well might be the most qualified of any of the candidates.

And yes, she is a heartbeat away from the presidency. But if you think about it, so is Biden. He is closer in age to McCain than he is to Obama.  Age on either side of the aisle should not be a factor in this election - either should sex or race. I don't know about you, but I am sick to death with political correctness. But the "spin-merchants" will try to have their way and make up our voting minds for us. It seems that whoever will do us the least harm will get our votes, but only we should  make that decision.

I thought I'd add a bit of levity to these very serious times, and pass along this bit of wisdom from across the water.

"We, in Ireland, can't figure out why people are even bothering to hold an election in the United States.

On one side, you have a pants wearing lawyer, married to a lawyer who can't keep his pants on, who just lost a long and heated primary against a lawyer who goes to the wrong church who is married to yet another lawyer who doesn't even like the country her husband wants to run.

Now...On the other side, you have a nice old war hero whose name starts with the appropriate Mc terminology, married to a good looking younger woman who owns a beer distributorship.

What in the Lord’s name are you lads thinking over there in the colonies??"

Tip of the Day

Get Sticky

I love using keyboard shortcuts. It's quick and makes me look like I'm a pro or something. However, I realize that many of you like to keep one hand on the mouse, so those three key combos are out. How about a way to type one key at a time rather than all at once?

This feature is called "Sticky Keys" and gives you a delay between key strokes when doing a keyboard shortcut. Let's say you want to copy something—rather than hold down Ctrl + C you can type Ctrl then C.

Ready to get sticky? Here's what to do...

Go to the Control Panel (Click Start / Settings / Control Panel ) and select "Accessibility Options".

On the "Keyboard" Tab, place a check in the checkbox next to "Use Sticky Keys".

Click OK to close the Accessibility Options window.

Now you can do your shortcuts a key at a time.

A Little Humor for the Weekend

The Postman Makes His Rounds
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Guess what I heard today?" a man says to his wife.

"What, hon?" she asks.

"The mailman has seduced every woman on our block but one."

"Huh," his wife says, "I bet it's that stuck-up Phyllis next-door."

We went to breakfast at a restaurant where the 'seniors' special'  was two eggs, bacon, hash browns and toast for $1.99.

'Sounds good,' my wife said. 'But I don't want the eggs.'

'Then, I'll have to charge you two dollars and forty-nine cents  because you're ordering a la carte,' the waitress warned her.

'You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the eggs?' my wife asked  incredulously.

'YES!!' stated the waitress.

'I'll take the special then.' my wife said.

'How do you want your eggs?' the waitress asked.

'Raw and in the shell,' my wife replied.

 She took the two eggs home.

 DON'T MESS WITH SENIORS!!!

-----

The Presidential election was too close to call. Neither the Republican candidate nor the Democratic candidate had enough votes to win. There was much talk about ballot recounting, court challenges, etc., but a week-long ice fishing competition seemed the sportsmanlike way to settle things. The candidate that caught the most fish at the end of the week would win the election.

Therefore, it was decided that there should be an ice fishing contest between the two candidates to determine the winner.

After much of back and forth discussion, it was decided that the contest take place on a remote frozen lake in northern Minnesota.

There were to be no observers present, and both men were to be sent out separately on this isolated lake and return at 5 P.M. with their catch for counting and verification by a team of neutral parties. At the end of the first day, John McCain returned to the starting line and he had ten fish.

Soon, Obama returned and had no fish. Well, everyone assumed he was just having another 'bad hair' day or something and hopefully, he would catch up the next day.

At the end of the 2nd day McCain came in with 20 fish and Obama came in again with none.

That evening, Harry Reid got together secretly with Obama and said, 'Obama, I think John McCain is a low-life, cheatin' son-of-a-gun. I want you to go out tomorrow and don't even bother with fishing. Just spy on him and see just
how he is cheating.'

The next night (after McCain returns with 50 fish), Harry Reid asks Obama, 'Well, tell me... how is John McCain cheating?'

Obama replied, 'Harry, you're not going to believe this, but he's cutting holes in the ice.'

Moral of the Story: Experience Counts.

Motivational Tip For The Day
by Jan Tincher

Do you want to change?

Some people don't realize the responsibility attached to that question.

Some don't realize YOU must take personal responsibility for your change. No one can do it for you. If they did, your change wouldn't be permanent.

In fact, any change you make will be temporary unless YOU take responsibility for your change. In my practice, I always ask "Are YOU ready to take responsibility for this change? Will YOU implement it now?" Will YOU make it permanent?

We have all created what we are experiencing. If we have created what we have, then we can create what we want to have. Before that can happen, we have to know, feel, acknowledge that we MUST change, that we MUST change our circumstances, and that we CAN change it all.

What do you think?

Change* http://www.tameyourbrain.com/6steps.htm
