91111

We have come full circle and revisited September 11th's 11th Anniversary.  It was encouraging to see that it was less political than it was in years.  I was also encouraged to see some TV channels showing what these MONSTERS did to innocent people.

The first thing that I wanted to talk about was the name "Patriot Day".  I think it stinks.  I feel that it should be more like "Innocent Victims Day".  I think it should be something that NOBODY will change to a sale day.  Like Memorial Day or Veterans Days Sales, I see that some day in the future we will have Patriot Day Sales.

I was also very hurt to see the number of places throughout the area, that did NOT have their flags at half mass.  2977 people lost their lives that day.  There are many more who have been dead inside since.

Pearl Harbor was an attack against military bases and personnel.  911 was an attck against men, children, women and unborn children.  NEVER FORGET.

My son thinks I'm stupid...

My son came to me today and wanted me to give him money to go clothes shopping. I explained to him that I would be more than happy to go clothes shopping with him.

He told me no and that he didn't want me going with him. And then threatened to go to wife's attorney if I wouldn't give him the money to go clothes shopping. He declared himself an adult (he's only 17). And after telling him for the 4th time that I wasn't going to hand him the money, he maturely told me to go fuck myself, to comit suicide, to go drive my car into a tree.

Real mature. Real responsible.

Money makes the world go around, the world go around, the world go around.....

I checked out census.gov and we have an estimated 304 million people in the United States. Let's go with $789 billion stimulus package. That means the government could give every man, woman, and child $2,594,885. A family of four could get $10.4 million dollars. Octomom with her 14 kids and her parents would get $44.1 million dollars.

At $1.69 per gallon of gas you could fill a 20 gallon tank for the next 1400+ years.

That would be equivalent of each man, woman and child earning $7,110 per day, or 296 per hour or $5 per second.

This is staggering. Who is going to pay for it? There just aren't enough people in the US.
