Sun and Fun --- The wet way

Well, we made it to Wild Mom's. It rained on us almost the whole way down but it was uneventful. The car ran fine and made the ride really nice. Why did we wait so long to get this car? For those with inquiring minds: the second job. With the long drive it left me with plenty of time to think on things and get a clearer perspective on the events of the last week. We spent Tuesday night at our usual place -- Comfort Inn in Sevierville Tn. We have been there so many times it seems like home. Almost! Tomorrow starts all the running around.

Wild Mom: She can still cook or at least tell Jennifer how too. Not too many sonny-do's, so I might get an hour free sometime this week. The house looks nice and in a lot of ways the same.

Star: Her and hubby finally got his papers so he can pursue his dreams and get on with their life. Gee, I wonder if my van has been jacked and raised yet and then painted with flowers and such. Shoot, it might come back tattooed and pierced!

Utah Scene: baby due the end of January.

I see the Anglican Church is changing its position to allow babies with severe physical handicaps and premature to be terminated in order to protect the quality of life for the parents. Even if the physical ailments aren't that bad, if the parents will suffer extreme hardship then they can have the child terminated. Were are we going? Will the elderly be next? The Article if you wish to read it.

I know that I am on the backside of the mountain of life so this is an interesting question for me. Will care be withheld from me because I am old and feeble and the health dollars should be saved for the young and ones with a longer future? This will become a bigger question as the welfare recipients grow and the welfare dollars dry up. Who is to say that baby with all those problems may not have a tremendous impact on the world. Life is precious and should be given every conceivable chance to succeed. God created that child and who are we to say "God, you did a bad job and I will terminate that life."

Don't you love the second charge against Abramnoff? He is being charged with "attempting to corrupt a government official." Come on, Congressmen for one has no need of help in corrupting themselves. Look at how many are convicted, under investigation or under indictment. They, for the most part are as crooked as they can be, the only difference between them and the prisoners is that they haven't been caught yet. Stop prosecuting Abramnoff and start prosecuting the Congressmen and Senators.

That Lady General that is yelling for Rumsfeld to be prosecuted for War Crimes should be the first one charged. She said wants Rumsfeld charged but "she was the General in charge of the Prison." She is responsible for what went on in that place. She claims she didn't know. Then that is a confession of incompetence for as the general in charge she was obligated to know everything and because of her rank she had the responsibility and authority. So general, look at your pointing finger and know it points at you -- you failed to do your job.
