I apologized for not being able to write another blog. The last one that I had written was back on Memorial Day weekend. That blog was titled, “Dying Alone.”

It wasn’t because I was busy or had writer block. Believe me, I was never short on ideas for a blog.

The reason, I wasn’t able to write another blog was because of technical trouble on the part of WordPress.

You can thanks WordPress for me not being able to write another blog for over a month. It took them this long to fix the problem. All the while they was giving me the run around.

So if you want to be freed to let them know how upset my loyal readers are at them.

If you think that they should reimburse me for not being able to post another blog, let them know that as well.

Believe me, when I couldn’t post another blog, I thought that maybe I had offended the wrong group of people. I thought maybe those people had shut me down because they were offended to what I had to say.

Like in the book, “1984”, the lead character was censored by big brother. I mean, there is more and more censorship now days than ever before. Those who are conservatives are being censored by the mainstream fake news media and other social media as well.

There’s a blog I had written at another site that may had gotten lost in the internet space. That blog was called, “At War with the Cattle Industry.” It was in favor of eating steak and hamburgers and writing against those vegans out there. I may rewrite that blog in the future.

I’m keeping this one short but I felt that I should apologize for you not being able to read any new blogs from me.

I will be writing another blog tonight after I post this one. That blog will be on Ross Perot. So you see, I’m not short on ideas. Thanks for waiting patiently for my blog site to get back up and running. I miss writing another blog like you probably miss reading them.

First, let me begin with Happy Memorial Day!

Not only is this the start of the summer; it’s also a time we remembered those who fought and died for our freedom. We also remembered our loved ones who had passed away.

Now let’s get to the real reason for this blog.

This past winter, there were 2 different cars found at 2 different parking lot. One was at Hornbacher’s and the other was at Cash Wise. The cars were buried in a snowbank. Inside the cars were 2 different people found dead inside. They had been dead for a long time too.

I have one question though. How can people not noticed these cars in the parking lot? Wouldn’t people become suspicious and want to check it out?

I mean, when I worked at Kmart and went out to get shopping carts; if I happened to noticed a stranded car in the parking lot for more than two to three days, I would report it to the manager or the customers service desk. That’s the proper things to do.

Why didn’t the employees at Cash Wise and Hornbacher’s do the same?

It seems like more and more people are happening being found dead alone. Either in their cars, their home, or wherever.

I remembered walking downtown Broadway and walking past a woman sitting dead on the bench. The cop was there and called ahead to have the body removed. There was even another guy there, and like an idiot, he somehow must thought that she was sleeping and was checking to see if she was breathing. I knew that she was dead when I was walking by. You can easily tell if a person is dead or not.

I mean, it creeps a person out seeing a dead person like that. Just like this blog might creeps some of you out.

I think the reason why more people are being found dead alone are for 2 reasons.

For one, no one wants to go into a nursing home; anymore than they wants to go into the hospital.

Some of the elderly in the nursing homes are put there by their kids and abandoned. Either because the adults kids don’t want to be bother with their elderly parents or cannot take care of them, themselves.

Another reason why people doesn’t want to go into a nursing home: is because of the high cost.

Our nursing home and health cares is expensive. Not everyone will just die. Some will needs round the clock care until they die.

Years ago, people had big family in hoping that their kids will take care of them in their old age. Sometimes, three generations will live in one home. This didn’t just happened in this country. It’s also happened in other countries as well.

Of course, some of these elderly didn’t have kids or their kids aren’t close by. Some of the adult kids don’t or can’t deal with their aging parents.

I know that my step-dad wanted to go back home to the farm to die; but us kids felt that it was better that he stayed in the VA. At least he would get the care he needed until his time on earth was up.

I had this friend from church who was found dead in his home. He was in his 70’s and toward the end he never really answered his phone. He was a bachelor. He wanted to be buried but since his body was decomposing, he had to be cremated.

It also reminded me back when I was a teenager on the farm. There was an elderly gentleman who lived up the hill from our farm. He had his mailbox next to ours. Anyway, one winter, he was found dead in his home frozen. He may had a heart attack or fallen; so he wasn’t able to get the heat he needed.

Those who were found dead are in a better place. They have no more pain. Still, it makes a person sick to their stomach and filled with grief.

I wish I would had thought of it before this friend of mine(Wes) was found dead. When I couldn’t get a hold of him, I should had called the police and had them do a welfare check on him. His hearing wasn’t very good, and toward the end he wasn’t much in answering his cell phone and made excuses for not hearing it.

If you know anyone who lives alone and you happened not see them around for a long time or whatever other reasons; check up on them. Even if you have to do a welfare check on them. I don’t think that the police would mine doing that for you.

Living in an apartment is easier to check in on someone than in a house; because, a person will easily noticed something wrong.

As I said in last week blog, a mother will always make sacrifices for her children. Good parents will always wants what’s best for their kids. They will make sacrifices for them. My question is how much is too much though?

For example: my folks would rather make sure us kids had plenty than treat themselves to a fancy dinner out. There are parents who would go out for a nice fancy meal; while their kids sit at home eating scraps.

If you have heard the news as of lately, you would had heard about how some of the 1% group were caught bribing college administration to get their kids into a good college. Now is that too much to do; so that your kids can have a better life? I’d say it is. Not everybody can afford to bribe college administration.

Two of these 1% people are celebrity. First of all Felicity Huffman, one of the star of Desperate Housewife and married to William H. Macy. When I heard that she was one of the person charged with bribing college administration, I was surprised. She is one of the Leftist Hollywood darling. Her husband, William H. Macy wasn’t charge though. She did the right thing and pledge guilty though.

Another Actress was Lori Loughlin, that was also charge. She was known as the darling of Lifetime movies. She was also in Full House and she started on daytime soap, “The Edge of Night.”

This is just a little background of 2 of those charged.

Lori Loughlin even said for her reason was that she wants her kids to have a better shot than she had. What parents doesn’t want the best for their kids? There is nothing wrong with wanting the best for your kids. But her and her husband took it too far.

As I said in last week blog, my mother wanted me to be a lawyer. Yet she wouldn’t and couldn’t do what these 1% people had done. I mean, my family wasn’t rich.

I had my first job when I was 13 years old, picking berries at Granrude fruit farm. We didn’t really had to work but it taught us the value of money and hard work. When I was 14 and in the 8th grade, I gave up my study hall to work in the school cafeteria. I have been working pretty much ever since.

Some of the members of the Country Club get their kids a job at the Country Club because they are members. That is not right! They should have to struggle to get a job like anyone else.

As I mentioned in the blog about Ed Shultz, it had been known but not proven, that he may had paid off the coach at Fargo South for his son, David could get a lead position on a football team.

If parents give their children anything they wants, what do they learn?

Like the saying goes, “Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.”

By giving your children what they want, you create what we have today; and that kids who are part of the entitlement group. They come to expect things because of who they are and who their parents are.

Now if teenagers started work early in their teens; they learn to appreciate things more. They learn the value of hard work and money. They will learn that money doesn’t grow on trees.

If parents keep on giving their kids everything, how will they cope when their parents are gone?

Another example is Sam Walton and Wal-Mart. Sam Walton took better care of the employees because he started Wal-Mart from the grounds up. Now his kids on the other hands, was given everything; so they don’t treat the employees as well as Sam Walton did. I believe that they should had started at the bottom of the company, to learn how the company is run and to learn the meaning of hard work as well.

Since I had worked ever since I was 13 years old, I had learn the value of money and of hard work. Hard work doesn’t hurt anyone! So when my folks died, and I received an inheritance, I appreciated it much more. It’s not that I became rich because of it. I learned the value of money and so I learned that I needed to put some away as investment for my retirement. I was able to make wise decision because of what I was taught; and given everything I wanted.

Believe me, I would love to been given more than what I was growing up; but what would that had done?

The courts should throw the book at those who bribed the college administration. They didn’t teach their children anything, but how to know that they can get anything they want without even breaking a sweat.

Happy Mother’s Day!!

I wish a happy mother’s day to all those mothers who worked hard out in the workforce and in raising the family.

A mother’s job is never-ending. They are constantly working. They can bring home the bacon and fry it too.

Sure, there are mother’s out there, who doesn’t work outside the home; but they are still hard working in raising their family. They deserve all of our respects.

My mother worked very hard all of her life, up to the point of her stroke. This pictures was one of their last pictures of them together.

I want to say this though, Vice-President Dan Quale made a very big mistake; when he went after single mothers and especially the show Murphey’s Brown.

Single mothers have the hardest job ever. They have to be a mother and a father to their kids. They have to worked outside the home and still raised their children as well.

It takes a very special mother to do just that.

For the first 5 years of my life, my mother was a single mother trying her darnedest to raise me by herself. Sure, she had a little help from my grandmother. My mother never took handouts from the welfare system. There was times that she worked 2 jobs to raised me.

She was dating my real father and was about to marry him when she caught him with another woman. They broke up when I was around 2 years old; and I never seen him again. Believe me, I had a chance to see him before he died. (That was a whole different blog though.)

I was her pride and joy; because the doctors told her that she wouldn’t have any kids. Then I came along, as a miracle baby.

My mother worked up the point to practically giving birth to me. I was born 2 weeks early too. Within a short time, she went back to work to make sure that I was well fed, had clothes to wear, and a roof over my head.

She had made a lot of sacrifices in her life. Not just for me; but for all of her family. She wanted to be a nurse; but had to drop out of high school to help take care of her younger sister, JoAnne. It was after her father was killed by a train in Casselton; while walking across the railroad crossing.

While she was dating my step-dad, he only mentioned bringing 2 of his kids to live with us. One was of age and the other was almost of age so they didn’t really count. Anyway, she told him, either all of the kids or none at all.

Believe me, she loved all of her kids and grandkids as much as she loved me. She sacrificed so much for us all.

Family was very important to her. Whenever the family would get together for Christmas or other get together, she was busy cooking a big meal. She would gets up early to do so. She did it with not much help too.

That is why a mother’s job is never ending and very tiresome. She wanted the very best for all of her kids. I mean, she wanted me to be a lawyer for some reason; which she never told me.

My folks were married for 40 years and believe me they didn’t had too. She could had easily had taken him to the cleaners and got the farm and all of the kids. He would then had to pay child support.

Back to my real father, she never demanded that he paid her child support; so she could raised me. The only thing he paid was the hospital where I was born.

Single mothers have it tougher than married mothers. Yet, married mothers is also very tiresome as well.

Working mothers worked even harder; because they have 2 jobs if not more. They worked outside of the home and they worked even harder in raising their family as well. They cook and clean. They are the chief bottle washer.

I’m not saying that stay-at-home moms have it easy, by no means. Mothers never have it easy. Their jobs is very much important.

We learned a lot from our mothers. This is why Mother’s day was formed as a national holiday. So that we can honor all of our mothers out there. Mother’s Day is a National working women holidays.

Who I do not have respect for is mothers who is living on welfare and having babies after babies just to get more money from the Government. Some of those kids may have different fathers. They are taking advantage of the system. They should get out and get a job if they wants to keep their kids. Believe me, my mother worked 2 jobs to keep me.

These mothers living on welfare and having kids from different fathers just to get more assistance, should be made to get a job. They should have their tubes tied and their kids taken away from them if they refused to get a job.

Otherwise, I have a lot respect for mothers and honor them for all of their hard works and sacrifices they make for their children. Not just my mother; but all mothers want the best for their children. They will do whatever it takes to make sure that their children have a better life. They sacrifice a lot for their family.

I believe that my mother is watching over me. I believe that she was watching over me when I was in a car accident coming down from Mt. Rainier. I love and still at times miss her to this day.

Stay tune for next week when I will write about when parents possibly go too far like the latest scandal involving higher education and parents bribing the college administrations.

Are you a believer? Are you the kind of person who will believe anything?

This will be more a light-heartedness blog about those who does believe in almost anything. I will share some examples to state my case.

You may say, “I believe all that. You surely don’t think you are telling us anything new!” I don’t hope to tell you very much that is new; I only hope to set the table for you, arranging the dishes a little better and a little more attractively so that you will be tempted to partake.

Back when Columbus discovered America, there were people who believed that the earth was flat. There are some to this day that still believe that.

Some may believe if you tell them that the moon is made out of cheese.

Earlier this year, during our cold winter, the mayor of Fargo shut down the city because of the possible storm that was coming. He made a statement to why he did that when he found out that he made a bad judgement call. He said, “You have to believe the weatherman.” Oh come on now; even with all their fancy equipment, they still can’t get the weather correct. It’s still a fifty/fifty chance that the weather could go either way.

There are those who believe in Global Warming. I don’t though; even though I do agree that we are slowly destroying our planet.

Alexandria Octavia Cortez believed that cow’s fart should be banned because it’s destroying the earth o-zone. She believed that the earth will be destroyed in about 12 years because of it.

Back in the year 2000, there were people who believed that there would be a huge outage because of it being a zero year. Nothing happen! We are still here!

There are some people who choose to believe in the fake mainstream news. They believed that they are telling the truth. In reality, they only report what they want to report on. If it’s not relevant, to the story, they won’t report. They won’t report the truth about any of these Democrats or Liberals; because they are themselves.

Some people will believe anything someone may tell them; no matter what it may be. They believe that they holds the truth. And they don’t want to hear the real truth. As Jason Aldean sang, “Don’t tell them the truth to why I’m not there. Tell them that I had gone crazy instead.”

Some people who goes to church would rather believe the preachers; rather than read the Bible for themselves. They believe that since they are called by God to preached the message; it’s must be true. They must be filled with the Holy Spirit and in the Words of God. If they aren’t, what they are saying may not be true.

This is why it’s important to be well read, not just in the Bible but have your facts straight.

If you know your Bible, you will know without a doubt if the preacher is preaching the Words of God truthfully.

The Catholic Church would rather feed you the Word and hope that you will believe it. They don’t want you to read the Bible. So when the pastors asked you to read the Bible as he preached his message I will do it. That way you will know if he is preaching it truthfully.

It is rather important to check the facts before you actually believe what you hear. My blogs is my opinion; so don’t just believe everything you read or hear. Check the facts for yourself. That way you will know if they are really truthful or just blowing “hot air.”

The devil wants us believe in anything. That is how he gets us in his web of lies. He is the father of all lies.

Even some of these politicians will even lie to us just to get our votes. Bill and Hillary Clinton are both famous liars. Even Obama lied to us when he promised change. He was only telling the American people what we wanted to hear.

Those who lies are not really lying, they are just telling us what we want to hear.

For example: when a woman asked, “does this dress makes me looks fat?” They don’t want the truth. They just want to be admired; even if you have to lie to them. They don’t want to know the truth, if you are cheating on them. They would rather you lie to them instead.

People say they wants the truth but as Jack Nichalson said in a Few Good Men, “You want the truth. You can’t handle the truth.”

This is why people have a tendency to believe in almost anything. They don’t care if it’s the truth or not. They would rather believe in a lie than actually check the fact to see if what they are saying is the truth.

I’m a believer! Yet, I have been duped at times for believing some of the things I have been told. I almost didn’t vote in the 2004 election because I didn’t want George W. Bush again and I surely didn’t want John Kerry either. But when George W. Bush promised a pro-life judge, I voted. He lied to me and to the American people.

I even was duped when I voted for Obama. He promised change for America. He was just saying what I and the rest of America wanted to hear.

I don’t care if you believe me or not. All I care that you check your facts first. Don’t just take my words for it!

Don’t believe everything you hear or read!!!

Who doesn’t wants to be rich? Who doesn’t want to win the Powerball?

It’s the American dream to be rich.

I know that I would love to win the Powerball. Believe me, if I ever did win the Powerball, I would quit working and do what I love to do, like travel for instant. (Of course I will write about it in my blog.)

The lottery is the biggest revenue for the states that have it.

Gambling is a big business. Many casinos are making a killing on all those who are out there trying to strike it rich.

Las Vegas and Atlantic City are 2 of the biggest gambling city in this country.

I have to admit that I would love to go to Las Vegas; but only to say that I been there.

There are many casinos out there as well. Some of them are on Indians reservation.

I remembered years ago when my mother was alive, her and I would go down to Dakota Magic and sometimes Shooting Stars. We would leave early morning after she got done with work.

It seems that was the best time to go too. If a person gets there early, your chances of winning was a little higher. Then usually after 8am, the staff will goes around and it seems tighten the slot machine to make it more difficult to win.

It was fun gambling, but I didn’t have the fever as bad as my mother did. She was addicted to it like her other relatives.

As the hit song from Kenny Rogers, “You got know when to hold them, know when to fold them and know when to run.”

State governments spend hundreds of millions of dollars annually persuading people to buy lottery tickets.

A generation of young people is growing up believing that gambling is innocent-despite the fact that gambling spawns poverty, family breakdowns, crime, drug and alcohol abuse, joblessness and suicide.

There’s a book by John Steinbeck that is worth reading. That book is “The Pearl.” That book coincide with this topic about getting rich. In the book, the main character found a pearl. That pearl really changed him into the person he was a shame of knowing when he look in the mirror. He wasn’t the same person he was before he found the pearl.

It goes to show all that wealth can actually change a person into someone they may not be use to. I mean it would be nice to be rich and be able to quit working.

There are even churches that would host bingo games as fundraisers. Usually the Catholic and Lutheran churches would do that.

I used to play bingo a lot when I was younger. You may win but you don’t strike it rich. A lot of older people would play bingo for a fun activity.

Even these Publishing Clearing House sweepstakes are suckering people in with the idea of winning big and becoming rich. Sure, somebody got to win, but like the lottery your chances is slim.

The elderly are easily scammed by these sweepstakes. The reason why is because they are on a fix income and wants to somehow increase their incomes.

My step-dad never really gambled like my mother did; but he did get scammed by these sweepstakes.

When a person do win, like the main character in the book, “The Pearl,” it change them. Within a few years, they will blow their winnings.

If a person ever was to win, they would have to find a good financial advisor to keep from losing it all as quick as they had won it. Plus, they will have friends and relatives coming out of the woods begging for some your winning.

If you have the gambling fever real bad and it’s affecting your family, job, etc. there is help out there. The gambler hotline number is free; so you can call it for assistant to beat the addiction. The number is 1-800-522-4700. So if you can’t quit gambling, seek help immediately.

Buying a lottery ticket isn’t a problem if you can handle it. It’s when you are spending money that you can’t afford to spend in hoping to get rich; that’s when it’s becomes a problem.

What do you think about when you see the cross?

Jesus Christ was crucified on the cross on Good Friday and rose 3 days later on Easter Sunday.

Yet, there are some out there, who wants the cross to be removed from certain public places. The ACLU is one organization who is pushing for the cross to be remove. But they’re not alone. Even these Socialist Leftist is also pushing for it too.

They say that the cross is offensive. Offensive to whom?

Maybe they are being convicted every time they see the cross.

The same thing had happened in these Communist country, such as Russia. Look at what happened there.

When you try to destroy the cross, God will cut you down.

The same goes to those who tried to destroy the Bible.

I have another question to ask you. There are people who wears the cross around their neck. I’m not judging the reason for wearing the cross; I’m just wondering what is your real reason in wearing the cross?

Are you a believer of Jesus Christ? Or do you wear the cross as a piece of jewelry?

Remember, the Lord knows what is in your heart. He knows your true motives. He knows the real reason for wearing the cross. You can’t fool Him.

If you are wearing the cross as jewelry, that is a form of idolatry. The first commandment is “Thou shalt have no other gods before Him. Our God is a jealous God.”

Even though this picture shows Jesus on the cross; He is alive today. He had risen and will come again for His people.

There are some churches out there who shows Jesus on the cross. To that, I say, “He should be in our heart, not on the cross. He already paid the price for us all.”

So why do we keep putting Him on the cross every time we sin?

If you are heavily burden, lay it at the foot of the cross and leave it there.

The cross stands for our redemption. It stands for a new life.

Those who wants the cross torn down from churches and other public places; they are just being under conviction. They hate seeing what the cross is revealing about themselves.

As I asked earlier, what do you see in the cross? When I see the cross, I’m reminded of the sacrifices Jesus Christ made for me. He died on the cross and rose again. (I won’t share my testimony here, but maybe someday I will.)

Seeing the cross can really put people under conviction. The old vampire stories states, that when a vampire sees the cross, they are scared away.

My grandmother favorite song was “The Old Rugged Cross.”

Here is some of the words to that song: The emblem of the cross is of suffering and shame. Because of the cross bringing shame, when those who wants to tear down the cross, they are feeling a shame for what they are doing. They are under conviction.

I will cherish the old rugged cross till my trophies at last I lay down. I will be true to the cross and exchange it someday for a crown.

By seeing the cross, a person feels accountable to God. Are you accountable for your action?

Maybe this why those in the world today, wants to destroy the cross. It is making them a bit uncomfortable.

There are many different religions out there. Yet, with Jesus Christ, who died on the cross and was buried is alive today. He had risen!! His tomb is empty. Can other religions say the same thing? I don’t think so!

Are you a shame of the cross? Are feeling convicted when you faced the cross? Are you accountable for your action? Is the cross making you feel uncomfortable?

Instead of tearing the cross down, why don’t you lay your sins before the cross. The Lord will forgive you. My favorite Bible verse was, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they are doing.”

I’m not a shame of the cross. I will gladly stand up for Jesus, because He first stood up for me. I will pick up my cross and follow Jesus.

If you are feeling offended because of this blog on the cross, give it to Jesus. Don’t knock the cross down because of your own conviction. If you need someone to pray for you, I will gladly pray for you. Like Job prayed for his so-called friends.

The devil wants to see the cross destroyed. But remembered, he is a liar. Don’t listen to the devil when you are feeling convicted, when you happened to see the cross. Give it to Jesus instead!

Jesus doesn’t wants anyone to perish and go to hell. He wants all to have eternal life with Him in heaven.

The more you are compelled to destroy the cross, the Lord will be compelled to cut you down. The Lord will remember you when He returns. Those who follow Him will live with Him in eternity; and those who choose to tear down the cross will be thrown in the lake of fire; along with the devil.

You have a choice to make! What will it be? Will you choose Jesus or will you choose on destroying the cross and believe the devil?

It’s that dreadful time of year again. The day we all hate with a passion. No one like paying taxes! Our taxes are too high and the government doesn’t deserve any of our hard earned money.

Before the Revolution war, the Colonists boarded the British sea merchant as protest against the over taxation of tea from the King of England. That was the original tea party movement that happened at the Boston harbor.

United States passed the income tax bill back in 1913. Woodrow Wilson was President when the income tax bill was passed. He was a Democrat too.

It goes to show that the Democrats is the party of high taxation and government waste.

One of the biggest waste of our tax dollars to date is the investigation of President Trump and the Mueller’s FBI’s files. He didn’t find any evidence of collusion with the Russians, causing his victory over Hillary Clinton in 2016. The Democrats were looking for any reasons to impeach Pres. Trump. They and the fake news media hated him that bad. They were whining about Hillary Clinton losing the election.

It took over 2 years of wasteful spending of our tax dollars over stupidity. Now it looks like the people who was behind pushing the investigation of Pres. Trump and the Russians collusion may have a long list of suspects. Top of the list are: the late Sen. John McCain, because of his jealousy. The Clinton’s foundation, especially Hillary. Even Pres. Obama may had been involved with this. One of his lawyer is now under investigation because of this.

Just think before it’s all said and done, I’d be surprised to find how many were actually involved.

Since Mueller couldn’t find any evidence to impeach Trump, the Democrats are so upset that they are looking for other reasons to stop him.

Another example of wasteful spending involved the Jussie Smollett’s false assault charge that he made in Chicago. At first, there was talk about racial discrimination accusation. When the police found out in their investigation that it was all a hoax made up by him. They went all out to press charges against him for taking advantage of them and for wasting taxpayers dollars. When all said and done, the Prosecuting Attorney chose not to press charges against him. Why?

They should had thrown the book at him and he should had served prison times. He committed fraud and cost the taxpayers money that didn’t need to be spent. Even the mayor of Chicago; who was a friend of Obama wondered why.

I heard that a conservative blogger made a statement, if I heard correctly, that Kamala Harris may somehow been involved with Jussie Smollett getting off scotch free. She may had paid off the Prosecuting Attorney.

The Democrats believes in over taxing the American people and using a bunch of red tapes. They think they are taxing the rich. They are not being tax. It is us, the working class that is getting the shaft; because of the loopholes and red tapes.

A prime example of red tapes is Obamacare.

I have to admit at first the healthcare system was a disaster and we needed better healthcare system. The more I look at Obamacare, the more I see what a disaster it really is. I think they needs to scrap the whole thing and work out a better health plan.

Under Obamacare, I was penalize twice and lost about a grand because of it. The first time, I was penalized for not having insurance; and lost my tax returns because of Obamacare.

What good does it do to penalize people?

There are people who would work day labors job and wouldn’t care about having health insurance at all.

Just this past year, after filing my taxes, I was penalized again. This time for having too much health insurance. I was lucky enough to only lose around $300 this time.

Since the Democrats been in control of the House of Representative for around 100 days, they haven’t done anything to deserve our votes in 2020. When Nancy Pelosi was asked about this, she answered, “There is just too much to do.”

To be honest, they haven’t done a damn thing but look for ways to get rid Trump or go out campaigning for the run for President in 2020. The Democratic party is so divided. Even more than the Republicans were before 2016.

The Democrats say that they are for the poor working class. They not only created the income tax. They also created many red tapes involving government assistant. They are becoming more and more Socialist. They want to offer free service in the name of helping the poor. Nothing is free! The taxpayers(that’s you and I) pay for all these services.

The poor will always remain poor if the government keeps on giving to them. Then again the Democrats want to keep the poor; that way they can control us.

As the saying goes, “give a man a fish and he will eat for a day; but teach him to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.” If you want to help the poor, show how they can get off the system and live the American dream.

The Democrats is for big government. I’m for less government. According to the Constitution, the state is suppose to govern the people; while the Federal Government is just to be overseer.

One of the things that Pres. Reagan tried to do was to give the state back control; and take it away from the federal.

Here is a message to the Democratic party: if you don’t start working with Pres. Trump, we the American people will remember that and vote you all out of office. It’s time to throw the bums out in Washington.

We don’t need more government, we need less government.

The government doesn’t deserve our hard earned money. If they don’t do the work that they were elected for, they shouldn’t get paid. This is with any jobs.

It’s time that the American people have another revolt against the Government like the Colonist did when they threw the tea overboard in the Boston Harbor during the first tea party movement. Let us send those in Washington a message loud and clear. We are sick and tired of all the government waste and red tapes in Washington. They don’t deserve our hard earned tax dollars.

With all the wasteful spending in Washington and by the Democrats, they truly don’t deserve the taxes that we paying in. There is way too much waste by our government and the Democrats in particular.

First, I want to say once again to those who had finally stood up to these abusive controlling men. It takes a lot of courage to do that.

In this book that I am holding up in my hand, it talks about angry controlling men. It delves into their mind.

Well, I’m here to tell you that men are not the only angry controlling people out there. There are some women out there who is also angry and very controlling.

A public figure is Hillary Clinton. I believe that she is an angry controlling woman. I believe that was one of the reason that led to former President Bill Clinton to having multiples affairs. I believe that it was Hillary that led Bill to become President in the first place.

Before I delve into the minds of angry controlling men, I will delve into the minds of angry controlling women.

Women who are angry and controlling over their husbands could chased them into the arms of another.

They will henpeck their husbands so bad that they may seek asylum to help them cope with the harsh treatment they are receiving. Some will cheat, and some may not. There health may greatly be affected in that relationship.

There was a woman, I’m grateful that I lost because of a friend because she was very angry and controlling. This friend told me that after he broke up with her. He told me that this woman could had taken me to the cleaners with her high-class living that she was living.

It got me thinking of my nephew and his wife. She is very domineering in that relationship. It is varying on him. You can see it on him. He has health problems and age is creeping up on him. He even lost some of his hair because of her constantly controlling him every step of the way. It’s not good for him and for their kids.

If kids are involved, they will see all that, some will become very shy and reclusive. While others could become abusive themselves. That is the only life they know and is accustomed to.

Some of those who abuse others, was probably abused themselves. They wasn’t able to get the help they needed to stop the cycle of abuse.

They talk about punishing the abusers. What about getting help for the victims. Sure you can punished the abusers; but that won’t stop the cycle of abuse. The focus should be on getting help for the victims of abuse.

Like I said, there are angry controlling women out there as well. It’s just not talked about as angry controlling men.

Some woman will be drawn to angry controlling men because of how they were raised. If their father was angry and controlling; they will married angry controlling men like their father. Just like boys will marry woman like their mother.

One of the reason for men being angry and controlling is jealousy. The reason for that jealousy is having a low self-esteem of themselves.

Some of these angry controlling men were either abused or involve in a controlling situation while growing up. They either witness it from their father or mother.

My mother was in that type of environment. Us kids were witness to that. It was funny, but yet not funny when my step-dad said after she died, “They have been married 40 years and no fight.” They argued a lot. He tried to controlled her but couldn’t because she was an independent woman. Eventually though, he worn her down health wise.

A lot like my nephew’s wife is doing to my nephew.

My step-dad didn’t voted for Hillary Clinton because he was afraid of controlling woman in power.

He had a very low self-esteem. I also believe that he suffered that kind of abuse while growing up himself. He was adopted by a relative of his birth mother. The only reason he was because his adopted father wanted him. His adopted mother never let him live it down either.

So you see, he had some issues that he never dealt with. Because of those issues, he became angry abusive man himself.

My mother told me one of the reason why she kept on working up to her stroke was because she was afraid that he would drive her crazy. She needed a gateway to keep her sanity. Yet she wouldn’t divorce him.

The never got the treatment she was receiving as abuse. As a lot of women or even men in that same situation, as abuse. To them abuse was either physical or sexual not emotional or mentally. If there was no marks of abuse, there was no abuse.

This is what this book talk about also.

Toward the end of my mother’s life, as her health was failing, he was able to wear her down.

It goes to show that if a person is in that type of relationship and don’t seek help; it could affect their health and well-being. If children in that relationship don’t seek counseling they could continue the cycle of abuse into the next generation.

This is one of the reason why men have a man-cave to escape to. They needs to get away for their own sanity.

This also why some may cheat on their controlling abusive spouses as well. They are driven to it. If they come upon someone who is total opposite of their mate, they could secretly become involved with that person out of fear for their life.

Like I said earlier it will also affect their health as well. They will have a lot of health issues. Some may even die before their abusive mate.

So here is a warning to all those abusive controlling people. Be good to your true loving mate or they may leave and never return. If you have an anger problems and it gets in the way of relationship; seek help immediately. If you grew up in that type of environment and wants to stop the cycle of abuse, seek help.

There is help out there for anyone who wants and needs it. You just have to know where to look. Just don’t be too late!!

Everything happens in cycle!

This winter was one of the coldest I have ever seen in Fargo, North Dakota. I don’t ever remember it being as cold as it was back in February.

Back in February we had what was known as Polar vortex; which came from the Artic. It is an upper level low pressure area lying near one of the earth’s poles. It’s a cold dry air mass of the pole and the warm moist air mass farther south.

The last time there was a polar vortex was first describe as early as 1853.

A deep freeze gripped much of the United States and Canada in late January and February of this year.

This goes to show that things happen in cycles; even the weather.

As cold as this winter was, it put a wrench into the theory of Global Warning. As I said before in my blog on Global Warning, it is something that was made up by Al (I discovered the internet)Gore. There is no such thing as Global Warning. Yet Al Gore and these Leftist crazies would have you believe difference.

I have an invitation to all those who believes in Global Warning. They should had spent January and February up in North Dakota this past winter. Then try to persuade me that, “Oh, it’s all because of global warning.”

I especially invite Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to had spent a month in North Dakota back in February. She wouldn’t survive. She would whine and complain like the rest of us. She is just full of “hot air.” Maybe her “hot air” would had warm things up?

She is so far to the Left and pure crazy. She makes Al Gore seems tame compare to her. She is so out there that she scares me with her stupidity. She may be book smart, but she doesn’t have enough brain to come out of the rain. She is not street smart! If she gets rain on her, she might complain about melting and call it “acid rain.”

You all heard how she wants to ban cow farts. How stupid is that? Does she wants to ban human farts too? She must never been raise on a farm. She doesn’t understand the working of a farm. Cow farts doesn’t hurt the o-zone! Cow manure is actually better fertilizer than all these chemicals, such Round Up. Cow manure is more natural. It doesn’t pollute this planet.

She even worked on a new green deal which didn’t passed in the House and Senate. It either got no votes or presence. The green deal was her baby. It goes to show what those in Washington actually thinks of her and idiotic thinking.

The green deal would hurt the economy. But she just doesn’t get it.

I do agree that we destroying this planet of ours. According to the book of Genesis, we are to be caretaker of this planet. I’m against the Keystone pipeline. But I don’t agree with Miss Cortez.

The last time that we had a real bad winter was in 1996 and 1997. The Spring of ’97 was known as the hundred years flood. We had more snow than this year; but we were much colder this year.

Like I said earlier, I don’t remember it ever being this cold growing up. We had a lot of snow and played outside more than kids do now days. I remember sledding down hills. I remembered building snow forts. School was never called off as much as it is today. Our kids are becoming wimpy; just like Alexandria Cortez. I mean, we were pretty much outside playing the whole day.

Another thing that Cortez wants to do is ban airplanes and automobiles. Yet, she can fly around in her fancy jets. She is not willing to give up things that she feels pollutes this planet. She wants everyone else to do it but not her.

Where Fargo, ND is now, was years ago Lake Agassi. The Red River Valley was formed by glaciers that floated by.

This is a flat terrain and we are likely to flood every year. Like my step-dad would say, “If you build by a river or on an old lake bottom, expect to be flooded out.” This all happens in cycle. This is not global warning!

After the Garrison Diversion was built, Devil’s Lake always had trouble with rising flood water.

We may needs to do something about the diversion here in Fargo. They needs to do it right or they could flood out neighboring small towns and farms.

I’m not disputing the fact the existence of dinosaurs. There is evidence for it. I just don’t believe in evolution. I don’t believe that man came from monkeys. I mean there still are monkeys around; either real ones or humans who acts like monkeys.

I believe the Bible. God created Adam and Eve; not Adam and Steve. He created us to take care of this planet. Yet, we have been destroying this planet piece by piece.

I don’t believe that it has anything do with global warning. I definitely don’t agree with Cortez. She needs to come up to North Dakota especially in the coldest part of winter. I personally invite her up here.

She would whine because it’s too cold. Yet she probably wouldn’t wear the proper winter clothes either. She wouldn’t know how to dress for the freezing cold.

It reminds me when Florida gets down to 30 to 40 degrees during the winter. They would complain how cold it is. Whereas, for us, its a heat wave during the wintertime.

Every few years, the weather happens in cycle. We’ll either have freezing cold winter or lots of snow. North Dakota can be colder than some places in Alaska.

I don’t like the freezing cold, but you have too toughen up if you are going to live up here. You just got to dress for the weather. As the song goes, “If you are going to play in Fargo, you have to have a shovel in the band.”

So to all those who believes in global warning, your theory got holes in it. Just study your history and you will find that everything goes in cycle. There is NO SUCH THING AS GLOBAL WARNING!!
