Is It American To Say Pay Tax Or Die

I could not believe it when I read this article. Talk about taxation. So basically what they are saying is that the peoples lives ain't even worth 75.00. Thank God no one was in it. Reminds me of mobsters, tyrants, or dictators. You know the old saying "pay or else". These were just some of my first thoughts that went through my head after I read this article. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/2010/10/06/2010-10-06_firefighters_let_house_burn_in_rural_tennessee_because_homeowner_didnt_pay_75_fe.html?r=news.
I've made a mental note to myself never live in Tennessee. Sorry but I just had to say my comments on this one shows you what the world is coming to.

Lost in cyberspace

I know I know I did it again I forgot to keep up with my blog well at least this one. I'm getting better at delegating the things to do on a time schedule but when personal life surprises you with extra things to do it's hard to keep that schedule. Plus the fact I've been very busy making my free money on the Internet and the blog that goes with that http://retireddiary.blogspot.com/. That blog keeps up to date with my cyber life and my earnings. Not much is going on rock hunting there was none this year the river stayed flooded all summer. I tried being a picker like the American pickers didn't like that too many spider webs and bugs. Had a few yard sales to make some extra cash. Did more digging on the back yard where the neighbors hill came down. We finally won our settlement but didn't win enough to pay for the damages done. The city took over the property where the hill came down from tried to tell us we had to put up an 18 foot wall so the debris on their property was not endangering our house. Let me just say it's not true what they say that you can't fight city hall because we did and we won it's their wall to build and I'm guessing if it's like any of the other properties they own around here who knows when they will get to it. They own a property 2 houses down from us the sidewalk is so overgrown you would never guess there was one there I haven't seen it in the 10 years I've been here. I'm planning on taking some pictures of the million dollar piles of junk they bought they call art and some pictures of the properties they own that used to be houses that they don't take care of and you will see what I mean. OK that's enough for now till the next time I will do my best to make it sooner I promise.

catch up time

Sorry it's been awhile everyone the holiday season is hectic. We have been having fun though. For Halloween all us girls wore tutus and I dressed my Explorer as a Chevy Blazer. Then for Thanksgiving big dinner at my house. This year me and the neighbor are having a decorating contest in our yards of course we shall win this battle too lol. I know this is late but there's some things I've been dying to comment on. First thing I don't know about you guys but I'm not feeling any safer with 2 muslims running homeland security. Looks like our prez just gave all his buddies free pass to here and how conveniently sent more of our troops overseas so we have less protection from invasion now. Better stop there I will get carried away. The next thing is funny my own little joke about the Tiger Woods thing. Tigers wife had to use an iron club because Tiger was already using the wood lol. We all know it wasn't no driving accident his wife was in hot pursuit with that club eyes full of rage. Something tells me she was aiming for him and his wood lol. Well that's the basics I wanted to get caught up. One more thing as the bar turns has been stolen from me if I don't have full control of it back by the New Year I will start fresh and new under another name looks like will also have to sacrifice bartendermo my user name. Don't worry I will let you all know my new names if I have to start over. Bad thing is I had some good sites I was starting to make money at. OK bye for now Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. That's the way I will always say it.

Return of Cheech and Chong

Last night we were invited to go see Cheech and Chong live by a friend. Free tickets how could one refuse. I love Cheech and Chong their movies are so funny I've even seen some of their old stand ups on t.v. All I can say is I'm glad the tickets were free I would not have paid to freeze my ass off outside to watch their show last night. It was cold and windy they started half hour late and then it was all old material from their early days. Don't get me wrong it was still funny and they had a couple new things in there mostly from Tommy Chongs wife who did intro. I think if it would have been indoors it would have been more enjoyable and might have lasted longer then an hour and a half. I felt a little sorry for Cheech and Chong because they did their skits in costumes. After all was done I was glad to have went but glad I didn't have to pay.
