In fact, I hope more people will start speaking out, as morale in this City is at an all time low. This is a result of ten plus years of leadership through intimidation. That is why most people are afraid to express their displeasure with the City's operation. As a War Veteran, you know what poor morale can do to an organization. It will cost you lives and $$$, as it leads to a complacent attitude. I mean that is was I learned during my Wartime Service, but maybe I was the only one around here who was paying attention to that lesson. I tried discussing the problem with the City's Chain of Command (another military lesson), and guess where that got me? My blogs themselves are another example of that complacent culture. Trust me, I've got a few opinions myself on the arena and other issues... Stay Tuned...

I’ve lived on a fixed income for a long time so the economy really doesn’t affect me much…
My pension doesn’t change much.
I’ve got nothing, but the junk around here
Got no credit and no family, so no one to squeeze
If they decided to kill me they would just be doin me a favor,
so I’m in a pretty good spot to spout off with no fear..
Never had enough good sense to have any
that’s why I ended Up in a Navy Special Forces Unit..
And I really believe, “that all it takes for Chaos to ensue, is for good men to do nothing”

The kids and I have been out looking for our dog all day, so I haven't been the greatest. I just was forced to change our phone number last week, so the number on his tag is wrong. I hadn't had a chance to get his tag updated, so who knows if we'll get em' back. The kids are pretty tore up. Just another inconvenient consequence of doing the right thing. However, I am confident that Karma's Coming to those who have caused my family so much turmoil over the last two plus years. I'm still breathing though, and all my limbs are in tact, so life is all good... Thanks for asking, and yourself?

Is really cool if you have it on your side at all times. I can't complain either, my kids are doing great and my life is pretty well you know the usual.... Other than that I'm blessed with what I have or going to gain.... Can't lose much more than my sanity when raising kids, you know what I mean they don't come with instruction manuals. Thanks for asking.

I'm sorry to hear about the dog, I have two of my own and I know if one of them were gone the kids and us would be tore up too. I treat my animals as if they are my kids, so they are just as spoiled as my kids are, LOL.....
