Well, did you check out the State of the Union Address? I missed it. I had to go to school. Anyways here's a list of political talk show hosts that I like.
This is another good one from Blaugh.com I saw over at Techzi.
These guys remind me of some of my friends. They have to have the latest technology, the newest car, this years Snowboard (like there's a big difference in snowboards from last year!?)
I guess that's why my car is paid for. I guess it's all about perspective. I'm not saying it's good or bad. Just different.
"If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live." - Martin Luther King Jr.
Just coming off the holiday, I thought it approriate to quote the Man of human rights. Funny thing, I couldn't remember if the Martin Luther King holiday was a paid holdiay. So I asked and was told,"We get presidents day off, we don't however recognize human rights!"
Have you discovered what you would be willing to fight for, up to the point of loss of blood, to loss of life? What is your passion? What is it that makes you want to get up every morning? Is it a loved one, child or spouse? Is it an idea?
Me? I am not sure. I have tried to ponder this and come up with what it is I am most passionate about. I know I could die for my wife and children. I would be willing to give up my life in defense of country. At least I think so, I haven't had to make that decision so I don't know. On the other hand my family, I have already decided that. So I guess it is my family that is my "something".
Monday was a fairly stressful yet beautiful day. Our four year old, "Deedle", had to have an inguinal hernia operation. He has always been the typical boy, runnin', jumpin', and horsin' around. He has that grin that drives all the storm clouds away. He just cracks that smile and life IS good. So it can be quite tasking emotionally when he has to endure a some measure of pain. Parents want to protect their children from danger and pain. He needed this operation however and we couldn't avoid it.
Two of our other children got sick over the weekend and needed to go to the doctor. (Influenza and 2 ear infections, we are so lucky!
Things went smoothly and like a trooper he did amazingly well. (I would still be layed up.) In post-op he told me he was doing "fine". They had given him a local pain killer and a general pain med. through the IV during the surgery. Since then he hasn't needed any additional pain killers. What a guy! We asked him numerous times, if he was ok? Every time it was, "I'm fine."
Oh, to be young again.
