Nice Picture of Air Force One

Good focus – nice side shot of the President’s Plane.

I especially like the coloring of the clouds around the tail section…

Whoops

March 2nd, 2009 . by Cary

Missed a few days there – sorry about that. I got a small remodel job, and I’ve been trying to squeeze in time to work on that in between job hunting and chasing after a certain 2 year old.

Oh, and my nephew (the son of LeaAnn) got married this weekend. It was good to see the family in the area. I was doing OK until I saw my other sister wearing the outfit that LeaAnn was supposed to wear at Sean’s wedding. I gathered myself back up, went and hugged necks of my two brothers and their families that were in attendance, and then caught myself scanning the crowd for LeaAnn.

Nah, that’s not why I put my shades back on. It’s because the wedding was outside on a golf course on a sunny day that I put my shades back on.

No, really.

Makes You Think

February 25th, 2009 . by Cary

Those who fail to study history are doomed to repeat it – or at least have to learn what others have already taught…

You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931

Media Version of New Math

February 24th, 2009 . by Cary

The major news outlets are wondering why they are losing readers, listeners, viewers, and so on:

When 111 Democrats voted to go to war in Iraq, the media called it “George W. Bush’s War.” When three Republicans (in name only) voted for the spectacular spending of our great-grandchildren’s money pork- and earmark-laden stimulus bill, it is being hailed as a “bipartisan effort.”

History

February 23rd, 2009 . by Cary

On this day, in 1945, Mt. Surabachi on the island of Iwo Jima was captured and held by forces from the United States Marines. The second raising of the US flag generated this memorable photograph for Joe Rosenthal, to be a point of inspiration for the entire country:

I am on the tail end of a round of antibiotics (Z-pak is my friend!) and the resultant coughing up of a lung on a constant basis makes sleep difficult and muscles sore from the coughing. I’m going to go sit quietly until MEG wakes up.
