Ah, Yester-Year

Yesterday I had to dig a trench.  The only thing I had in my truck was my issued (cerca 1999) e-tool.

The memories.

Daily Commute

Yesterday I had a commute that wouldn't end.  About half way there I found this.

Can anyone identify this thing.

Merry Christmas

I just wanted to say Merry Christmas to all.

And for all that are reading this, thank you.

I'm honored that you take the time to read my blog.

Daily Commute

I found this today in a little town without even a stop light.

Looks like a mall to me.

Great Quote

"When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty."

-Thomas Jefferson

and another one, just in case his position on the power of the people wasn't specific enough.

"The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."

Imagin if one our current politicians made a statement like these?  Would the people support him, throw him out, or not believe him.

PS It would be funny to watch the new media go ape about a politician says one of these quotes.

Yesterday's Commute

In the middle of nowhere, water takes over roads.  This road wasn't too bad... Luckily.

Daily Commute

If you thought your commute was bad, just check out these guys.

Yes, this road is so small that you have to pull off the road when a vehicle is coming the other way.  And Yes, that truck is stuck in the ditch and these other guys are trying to pull it out.
