Watch Out!!!

I wanted to share this clip from a recent soccer game I attended. Keep your eye on what happens to the ball when it goes out of bounds and is put back into play

Stupid People and Guns

With the recent news of another sports figure involved with a gun incident. I thought I would share the below clip. Maybe there is a good reason politicians are lobbying for stricter gun control and laws. Make sure you turn up the volume before viewing this clip!

OOOOPPPPSSSS!!!!

Trying to follow in his mother's footsteps, Jordan made a failed attempt to trim his bangs. Better luck next time!!!

Hold on!!! Here we go!!!

If the current economic recession we are experiencing is not enough. We now have to deal with the rising cost of health insurance. I can’t argue that health insurance is not necessary. Given my families medical history it’s a must for me and my siblings.

After reading a few articles, I am dumb founded as to why the cost of health insurance is rising at unseen before levels. What is contributing to the rise....greed, lazy people on welfare? Inflation is only 2-3.5% yearly. It is hard for hard working Americans to keep up. Workers are now paying $1,400 more in annual in healthcare premiums for family coverage than they did in 2000. It is no wonder why there is a growing number of uninsured Americans.

Some national surveys show that the primary reason people are uninsured is the high cost of health insurance coverage. Nearly 47 million Americans are uninsured; the United States still spends more on health care than any other industrialized nation.
Premiums for employer-based health insurance rose by 6.1 percent in 2007. Small employers saw their premiums jump as well with an increase 5.5 percent. Smaller businesses with less than 24 workers saw a larger increase of 6.8 percent.

Health care spending is 4.3 times the amount spent on national defense. Hopefully Barry and his band of merry men and women can help once he takes office Jan 20 2009

And that is a Wrap!

With the RSL Season ending in a loss to the Red Bulls at the Western Conference finals, one was to wonder what if. What would have happened if RSL didnt have 4 shots ping off the goal posts? They would be playing Columbus.

All n All it was a good game to watch. The best part was I had the oppurtunity to sit next to Marcelo Balboa and help with stats. It was a once in a lifetime oppurtunity.

Another DAMN Bailout!!!

I am interested to see which industry will be next to beg the government for money. Airlines, Transportation, Healhcare....... It seems like its turning out to be Corporate Welfare at its finest. How the hell can the executives of the financial and automaker industries beg for money to keep their businesses aflost when they are receiving millions in compensation and perks??? Its just like the lazy asses that dont need welfare, but want to live the comfortable live so they learn how to play the system. Yet, its the hardworking people that are honset and pay their taxes that have to pay for this stupidity. Maybe if the executives took at paycut and were paid by the perfornace of their companies, they wouldnt need to be begging for the government to bail them out.

Not all Churches are Created Equally!!!

I thought that the Mormon Tabernacle Choir was the best church choir out there until I visited this church. Enjoy!!!

My Dear Sweet Boys

As Christmas is approaching, we got dragged out for our yearly picture taking trip.
We managed to get a few good poses from the boys. We are selling prints, all funds will go towards their trust funds.....kidding.

Time for a Change!!!

I was happy with the outcome of the recent election, not because Barry won, but how he did it. It was not easy to convience the American people that he was capable of taking on the task of President-Elect. Given how blacks have been treated over the years and the misconceptions some people have had. To be trusted as the First Black President of the United States of America, is an enormous feat to have accomplished.

I think it goes to show that we helping Dr. MLK Jr's sppech come true.

"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

My Worse Nightmare!!!

Jordan recently had a huge birthday bash to celebrate 5 years on Earth. As family and friends showered him with gifts, one gift hit me hard. As Uncle Paddy presented a gift to Jordan, I watched in horror as Jordan opened his present. I was speechless, I wanted to puke. My wonderful, thoughtful Sister-In-Law bought Jordan a Lebron James #23 jersey. Yes, this is the same number made famous by his Airness-Michael Jordan.

As my son will learn and have to decide from good and evil, the tug-o-war begins. Who will convince Jordan what player's jersey he will want to wear? So far, Kristy has gained an edge....for now
