THS 88: Relay Message from Tracy Malone


 

Got this, this AM via Facebook…
 
Hey Kevin, hope you are doing well. Could you share something with the group? My son Cody Enlow, left yesterday for boot camp at Ft Benning in Georgia. I am pretty lost without him. Thank goodness I still have my Julie at home. Just asking for prayers and good wishes for him until I get him back in 6 months. Thanks.

THS 88: July 2012

Hear ye…  Hear ye…  or more accurately — Read ye…  Read ye !!!  Here’s the news I know and how I see it…
 
Been a little warm here in CenLa and most everywhere else…  Just remember the EPA wants to shut down coal powered power plants — plants that provide 46 percent of our nation’s electricity — now think about that lovely air conditioning you’re sitting in reading this…
 
OMG — and I don’t mean “Oh my God”, I mean “Obama Must Go” — can you believe John Roberts created a means to pass Obamacare.  With that logic “The Beatles” had it right…
 

If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street,

If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat.

If you get too cold, I’ll tax the heat,

If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet.

-The Beatles in “The Taxman”

Nothing is now safe from Federal Taxation…  National Sales Tax…  National Automobile Registration Tax…  National Ammunition Tax…  National Fat Tax…  It’s endless…

Add to that the pious logic of “the Left” — The Supreme Court has spoken; it is the law of the land; we must move forward and there’s nothing you can do about it.  Let’s look at a couple of other 5-4 decisions and how they react…

  • Heller vs. District of Columbia — SCOTUS rules individuals have the right to own firearms for self defense.
  • McDonald vs. Chicago — virtually Heller II — and our wise Latina who testified that Heller was settled law and precedent; votes with the Minority to uphold Chicago’s ban on handgun ownership.
  • Citizens United — the rights of corporations to participate in the election process.
For “the Left” These are not considered settled law.  They are unjust decisions made by the court’s right wing majority.  Once we get another SC vacancy, we’ll revisit this decision and make it right; or we take care of this legislatively or with regulation.  Essentially when the decision goes their way, it’s the law there’s nothing you can do about it time to move on — when America wins, it’s — only a set back, we’ll fix this with the next election, etc.
 
And now to end this political mini-rant I give you once again…  The Beatles…
 
 Revolution
Writer(s): LENNON, JOHN WINSTON / MCCARTNEY, PAUL JAMES
You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it’s evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don’t you know that you can count me out
Don’t you know it’s gonna be all right
All right, all right

You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We’d all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We’re doing what we can
But when you want money
For people with minds that hate
All I can tell is brother you have to wait
Don’t you know it’s gonna be all right
All right, all right
Ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah…

You say you’ll change the constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it’s the institution
Well, you know
You better free you mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain’t going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don’t you know it’s gonna be all right
All right, all right
All right, all right, all right
All right, all right, all right

Got word from Dana, she family and property have survived the Colorado Springs wildfire…  Doing well…  She did have her house full of friendly refugees (all friends) during the fires — they were fortunate as well…
 
From the Wonderful World of Facebook — Layce and fam in Nashville on Vacation…  Saw photo she posted after arrival, asked her if she had checked to see if Fiddlin’ John was in town — unfortunately he wasn’t.
 
“The 25”  Great news for those objecting to the 3rd weekend of June, I looked at the calendar, it’s actually the 4th weekend in June I’m shooting for weekend of June 22nd.  Only 1 objection — one also must consider the possibility of whoever objects might not have had plans to come anyway — yada yada yada…
Polling data shows pretty much same responses, so for now, I’m just gonna wing it…  Input always appreciated — you can post comments to the web site or you can e-mail me directly — with just under a year to go, we’ll / I’ll pretty much have the plan down by the first of the year…
 
Still up in the air on opening up the festivities to others — sentiment seems split — and split might have to go to THS 88 Only event — again input appreciated.
 
If anyone is interested in the preparations, e-mail me or Jenn jbmax@aol.com — I consider my primary duties to be securing the night time location, setting the date, arranging for the DJ, and food; decorations, door prizes, day time family gathering, etc. — not at the top of my list — those are open to committee and volunteer work, contact Jenn if you wish to participate…
 
I guess someday, I’ll have to put together a roster of such of my e-mail contacts here so we know who of THS 88 still needs to be brought into the loop regarding “The 25”
 
Out all other stuff I can think of…  So I guess it’s on to the B-Days…
