Celebrate! Celebrate!! .......but watch your back.

Yippee Kiyay!!  Everybody!!  Finally!  We GOT Bin Laden!!  Ding! Dong! The witch is gone! The mean old witch!! That son of a bitch!! Ding! Dong! The son of a bitch!! is gone!!!!  Can I get a AMEN!?!

I am so glad that they got him!  I don't understand why this wasn't done before, unless Michael Moore was right about former President George Bush being in business with the Bin Laden family.  I know that no one in Washington is going to tell the truth about that.  No one in Washington is capable of telling the truth.  So, why do we keep them in office? Things that make you go.....hmmm.

But in this particular case, I want to give credit to the work of the CIA, JSOC and President Obama.  It is good to know that the CIA, who lost a lot of credibility over the WMD thing, can work with other top secret organizations within our own government to bring this all together.  Kudos too, for President Obama, who was in on it all from the beginning and who had the balls to order the strike and take out Bin Laden, and to JSOC who carried out the mission successfully.  Congratulations to you all.  

We should all feel like a weight has been lifted off of our shoulders.  We've been carrying this Bin Laden thing on our backs for more than a decade.  We've lived with terrorism for almost a generation now.  Should we feel like we crossed the finish line in first place?  That answer would be a no. Why?  Because an organization that has had lots of time to establish itself world wide, is most likely prepared for the loss of Bin Laden.  Someone esle is most likely already appointed to be the new face of al-qaeda.  If it turns out that they weren't prepared, then what we will most likely face is a bunch of Bin Laden wannabe's who will use this as an opportunity to make their case for Osama's job.
Either way, we should not let down our guard.  It may end here, which I doubt, but most likely won't.  Think of it as a gang mentality.  The leader is no more.  Does the gang throw away their bandannas and go back to being nice guys?  No.  Someone else steps in to make a name for himself.  Why would we think al-qaeda to be any different.  So celebrate but watch your backs.  May God bless and protect the United States of America!

Ahhh.......Spring has arrived!

Yes! Spring has finally arrived.  Baseball's are flying, trees are sporting their leaves, temperatures are nice, flowers are blooming and LAWN MOWERS ARE MAKING IT SOUND LIKE A WAR ZONE!!!

Please don't misunderstand me.  I like all these things and realize that the grass must be mowed.   However, I live in an apartment complex that has more grassy areas than most apartment complexes and it requires a professional lawn care company to keep it looking nice.  So, when they show up to tend to the lawn, they come in with a trailer full of all kind on equipment and start their work.  Now, here is the kicker, I live in a building at one end of the complex.  The professional lawn care people arrived before 6 a.m. this morning and parked their trailer just outside my bedroom window.  The crew started up their various equipment and one man worked the large area just outside my bedroom window while the others drove their equipment off to different areas in the complex.  When one would need to gas up their equipment again, they would drive it back to the trailer just outside my bedroom window and fill up.  This has gone on for four and a half hours now.  It sounds like a war zone just outside my bedroom window!!!

Did you miss me?  I took a four hour break between the last paragraph and here.  The noise. The Noise!! was just too much for me to concentrate, so I took a break.  It looks as if the grounds keeper people are finally finished.  I see them loading their equipment back onto their trailer.  So, it looks like that is all over now.  Can I get a Amen?!

And now for a little levity and music.  If you know the words and wish to sing along, it's OK! Go for it!!
