My wife, tolerance, and the dog that will not shut up.

My wife, tolerance, and the dog that will not shut up.

My wife puts out the dog.  The dog barks, literally, continuously, until she goes to get the dog and bring the dog back into the house.

There is nothing wrong with the dog.

I sometimes think maybe there is something wrong with my wife.

I do not beat or abuse the dog.

I do not beat or abuse my wife.

I own three other small dogs, one is a puppy, four dogs altogether.

The oldest is a squirrel hunting dog, who has had many micro-strokes, and the "middle-child" is a Chihuahua.

My Chihuahua and the puppy, who is also a squirrel hunting dog (commonly known as a Fiest) are the latest additions, and were both rescued after being abandoned by prvious owners unknown, at the same area of Southern Mississippi.

All four of my dogs are in fact "rescue dogs".

I stretch my food budget to be able to buy food to make at home for my dogs.

I can rarely afford store-bought dog food in the 25 to 50 pound sized bags.

Sometimes we receive a sample bag of a store-bought dog food from the company that makes the dog food, and we are able to give them an honest review.

My dogs do not know how "poor" we are at this time.

We also have two cats, and their store-bought food is near its end.

Maybe we will get money to buy them some "cat food".

My dog that will not shut up was rescued as a puppy, running wild with her mother dog, and brother puppy; on the Navajo Reservation in the South-Western United States.

One day, I will no longer be able to be upset by the dog that will not shut up.

Until then, we will go on loving and caring for our rescued "children". 

 

 

Texas police pull over an armed George Zimmerman

 

George Zimmerman pulled over by Texas police, warned.

• Zimmerman had a gun in his glove box when he was pulled over for speeding Sunday near Dallas. Officials said Wednesday that it was a routine stop.

• Watch video of Zimmerman's traffic stop

  AUSTIN, Texas — George Zimmerman, a volunteer watchman whose acquittal in the shooting death of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin led to protests, was pulled over by police in Texas for speeding, officials said Wednesday.
  Zimmerman told the officer that he had a weapon in his glove compartment and was going "nowhere in particular," said Brian Brooks, city manager of Forney, Texas, about 25 miles southeast of Dallas, where Zimmerman was stopped Sunday.
  The gun in the glove box is legal in Texas, and police routinely ask motorists if they have weapons in the car, Brooks said. He said the entire stop lasted less than five minutes.
  
  "It wasn't for super-excessive speeds, they just got him on regular speeding," Brooks said. "It's a pretty routine stop except for the fact that it was George Zimmerman."
  
  Zimmerman was released when it was determined that he had no warrants.
  
  Zimmerman, 29, who is white and Hispanic, was found not guilty of murder and manslaughter on July 13 in Florida after a racially charged trial in the shooting of Martin in February 2012. Thousands of people demonstrated across the United States after the verdict.
  Zimmerman, who was a volunteer neighborhood watchman in the central Florida town of Sanford at the time of the shooting, said he acted in self-defense.
  

   

Fast Food Strike

     The radio commentators and their callers take it personally that they can not get their Big Mac or Whopper fix in cities where the strike is in full force. How do you you feel? Are you upset with patty flippers wanting to be paid fairly? I f so why?  Is it because they are not skilled labor? Does that make you superior. You are insulted? Are you angry that you may have to pay seven dollars rather than five for a quarter pound of beef? If the price rises on your fries is it the fry guys fault? Or is it due to the corporations greed?
      I heard one lard ass talker bewail the corporations small profit margin. I do not know how the corporations profit margin could be so little and it can still build and expand. I do not understand how the price it charges keeps rising while workers pay remains the same. I do not understand why anybody buys their product. I suspect that with the prices the corporations charge it is a status symbol to have an empty bag of Taco Bell on your floorboard. So it is pride.
     Be proud of that extra twenty pounds and clogged heart it, (the corporation), sold you. Enjoy watching another Popeye's being built across the street from the hospital where you lay with tubes running in and out of you after getting the Pizza Supreme sucked out of your arteries. But I digress.
     The bun topper or maintenance guy is not after you money. It, (the corporation) is. It wants your money so it can build and expand to hire and hold down people with a petty stipend. Not to say that if one doesn't bust their ass or kisses it's that after six months a person might not be offered a nickel raise. Look at the profit that KFC takes and tell me it is not enough for you.
     Blaming the working poor is misplaced accusation.
    

Recycle, reuse, reduce

     Save the planet. I have been hearing this mantra since the late 60's. At that time I was six to seven years old. Even at that tender age (Perhaps to the continued brainwashing), I had an image of what that could mean. Fresh air and water. A return to nature. Ample wildlife.
     My father being more experienced considered how recycling will affect costs. His understanding was such that he realized retooling would cause a temporary spike in prices in order to fund this environmentalist undertaking. He felt sure this undertaking would be accomplished in less than a decade. After which reusing, recycling and reducing waste would lead to lower costs in producing goods.
     His reasoning being that since recycling will lead to little need for harvesting trees, mining aluminum etc. Reusing would save the family budget for obvious reasons, as it would manufactures. The same would be true for reducing.
     Flash forward 40 years. Plastic bottles are thinner, (More flimsy), due to less use of  polyethylene. Has that improved the family economy. Has the price of your bottled water decreased or increased? Houses are built of recycled wood called fiber board. Have housing prices gone up or down? Fuel usage is reduced through more efficient engines and alternative fuels. What have you seen become of the price of gas?
     What examples can you think of concerning how environmentalism has saved your family economy let alone the national economy?  Think of how the wildlife has become more abundant. If you have any other thoughts concerning the environmentalists plan/lie has come to fruition please comment.
    

Stop being so negative.

     A recent article in a liberal rag listed six decisions that could have saved Trevor from dieing. I will not list them. Suffice to say they were lopsided and once again accused  Mr. Zimmerman. The six choices listed would have been as easy for Mr. Zimmerman to make would have been as easy to make as Trevors decision to be black.

George Zimmerman murder trial verdict is announced

I didn't know.

According to colonial records, the first slave owner in the United States was a black man.
Prior to 1655 there were no legal slaves in the colonies, only indentured servants. All masters were required to free their servants after their time was up. Seven years was the limit that an indentured servant could be held. Upon their release they were granted 50 acres of land. This included any Negro purchased from slave traders. Negros were also granted 50 acres upon their release.
Anthony Johnson was a Negro from modern-day Angola. He was brought to the US to work on a tobacco farm in 1619. In 1622 he was almost killed when Powhatan Indians attacked the farm. 52 out of 57 people on the farm perished in the attack. He married a female black servant while working on the farm.
When Anthony was released he was legally recognized as a “free Negro” and ran a successful farm. In 1651 he held 250 acres and five black indentured servants. In 1654, it was time for Anthony to release John Casor, a black indentured servant. Instead Anthony told Casor he was extending his time. Casor left and became employed by the free white man Robert Parker.
Anthony Johnson sued Robert Parker in the Northampton Court in 1654. In 1655, the court ruled that Anthony Johnson could hold John Casor indefinitely. The court gave judicial sanction for blacks to own slave of their own race. Thus Casor became the first permanent slave and Johnson the first slave owner.
Whites still could not legally hold a black servant as an indefinite slave until 1670. In that year, the colonial assembly passed legislation permitting free whites, blacks, and Indians the right to own blacks as slaves.
By 1699, the number of free blacks prompted fears of a “Negro insurrection.” Virginia Colonial ordered the repatriation of freed blacks back to Africa. Many blacks sold themselves to white masters so they would not have to go to Africa. This was the first effort to gently repatriate free blacks back to Africa. The modern nations of Sierra Leone and Liberia both originated as colonies of repatriated former black slaves.
However, black slave owners continued to thrive in the United States.
By 1830 there were 3,775 black families living in the South who owned black slaves. By 1860 there were about 3,000 slaves owned by black households in the city of New Orleans alone.

Obama is 11th great-grandson Descendant of America's First Slave through President Obama’s Caucasian mother’s family.

We’ve all heard about President Obama’s Irish roots, and we know his father came from Kenya. But a research team from Ancestry.com, the world's largest online family history resource, has also concluded that the nation's 44^th president is also the 11^thgreat-grandson of John Punch, the first documented African enslaved for life in American history.
And what’s more, the connection comes through President Obama’s Caucasian mother’s family.
This discovery follow years of research by Ancestry.com genealogists who, using early Virginia records and DNA analysis, linked Obama to John Punch. Punch was an indentured servant in Colonial Virginia who fled to escape servitude in 1640. After he was caught, his punishment was enslavement for life. Punch’s is the first documented case of slavery for life in the colonies, occurring decades before slavery laws were enacted in Virginia.
