Tip of the Day: How NOT to get shot!
Here are a few tips to keep in mind if you find yourself in a situation where you are likely to be shot. First, be respectful. If you are breaking the law, there are a lot more ways of justifying someone shooting your stupid disrespectful @$$. Second, if you do find yourself staring down the business end of a gun, it’s probably because you were disrespectful, stupid, or both. At this point in time it would be unwise to provoke the person with the gun, as they are obviously willing and able to shoot you. Perhaps, you should listen. Maybe let them know who you are and that most obviously made a mistake and apologize. Just like with any wild animal, do not approach said person with a gun and don’t make any sudden movements. This will certainly lead to you being shot. Always remember, being shot really, really hurts. Except for crazy people who shouldn’t have guns in the first place, no one wants to shoot another person, so don’t force some ones hand into pulling the trigger. It’s really hard for a stranger to assess the worth of your life, so it would be unwise to expect them to think it is worth more than the price of a bullet.
Here are a few more specific tips:
Don’t sleep with a gun owners daughter, wife, mom, husband or really anyone who they don’t want you sleeping with.
Road rage is considered attempted assault in most places and use of force laws can justify someone shooting you if you are an aggressor.
If you have a weapon in your hands, you should drop it right away if someone threatens to shoot you.
Alcohol and Firearms DO NOT MIX! Really, Really Bad Idea! Any other drugs, too.
If you point a gun at someone, be prepared to shoot them. If you aren’t, they might take your gun and shoot you with it!
Don’t let strangers know where you keep your guns, even friends. Although they might not rob you they may inadvertently tip off someone who will.
And last of all, remember your basic firearm safety rules,
and teach them to the people who live in your home, even your kids. Knowledge is Safety.

Cash is King...Or is it?
Well here we go. Federal Government is increasing Debt to all time highs. The Fed is printing money faster than the ink can dry, all the while telling us the recovery is at hand. Things don’t seem to be getting better, but so far the dollar hasn’t inflated much in spite of the huge printing run. Why is that? Because we’re all hoarding the stuff! Think about it. If the fed is printing more money, but everyone is hoarding money, the relative volume of cash stays the same. It’s not until we the people go out and start trying to spend our hoarded up money that inflation will set in. And it will, and once it does our economy will see the BIG dip. And since the federal government is up to it’s eyeballs in debt, there will be little recourse on their part. In fact at the G20 Summit, the other nations of the world are seriously wanting to get rid of the American Dollar as the international currency of trade! If China stops buying all of our government bonds, the Debt of America, our currency value will drop like a lead brick. Imagine paying upwards of ten dollars a gallon for gasoline, or five for a loaf of bread? Our lives are so based on foreign trade that America no longer stands on it’s own anymore. So America will go Bankrupt. And our creditors will buy up our federal land, our military equipment, our gold and oil reserves, pretty much everything that makes America great will be gone. And your couple of thousand in cash? Gone so fast you blinked and missed it. Your wages won’t be adequate for feeding your family. Cash will be all but worthless and the necessities of life will be more valuable than bricks of gold. Food, clean water and shelter will be invaluable as people are driven from their no longer affordable homes. Shanty towns will form and everything will be pretty close to the great Depression, except this time we will have enemies with nuclear arsenals. They will laugh and laugh at our prideful stupidity as we allowed ourselves to implode.
What can you do? Here's an idea, buy one full months worth of non-perishable food. This is good advice regardless of what may come, because if anything bad happens, food shortages will be the first problem. “But I need the cash if I lose my job!” You reply. What do you think you’re going to be spending that cash on!? Buy food supplies now, it’s not paranoia, it’s common sense. If where you live floods, you can’t drive to the grocery store. Tornado could blow the store away. Any number of things could cause you to be unable to go grocery shopping. Be smart and take care of your family. Cash is only worth what you can buy with it.

Making a Difference
It is said that one person can't make a difference. That is bold faced lie intended to discourage us from realizing our true potential as human beings. You don't have to try and single-handedly save the entire world to make a difference, just one person is all it takes. No daring act of heroism is called for. Just do something for someone that you wouldn't normally do, to help make their life a little better. It's not hard at all. Here's the kicker though. When they ask you where this uncommon act of kindness is coming from(and they will), tell them. Say,"I'm saving the world!" Of course, you can expect the look like you just told them you like peanut butter on your french fries. So explain yourself, and if ever anyone asks how to repay your kindness, challenge them as I challenge you today: Each week make it a point to help one person out with a small act of kindness. It doesn't have to be money, it doesn't have to be time, it just has to fit in with something they need. Just once per week, that's all. You will find that it feels good to help people, and this will soon be second nature. You will find friends and gain respect. You will have opportunities to witness to people and spread your love. And like all those stupid chain Emails say: pass this on it REALLY WORKS! Except this one does really work. Good Luck and Good Living!

Jihad
Yesterday, a young illegal immigrant from Jordan, Sam Smadi, attempted to blow up one of Dallas’ finest works of modern architecture.
The Fountain Place(my Uncle helped build it) has absolutely no right angles at all, and was possibly one of the most difficult buildings to construct in modern times.
America, when are we going to get mad, I mean really MAD! Even post 9/11/01, we weren’t really mad. Really mad is, you kill 3,000 Americans, we kill 30,000 of your people. You blow up a building, we blow up a city. That’s MAD! This is Jihad, people! Do you not realize that these terrorists have declared WAR on you, me, our Children, all of our religions, our Freedom, our Honor, our entire way of life!? They want to destroy the very history of our entire existence! They are HERE in America! We are being invaded by our ENEMY! Where are you Congress, President Obama!? How can this guy and others just like him stroll across the border! There are enemy combatants on American Soil, and all you are going to do is arrest them, give them a trial, and a maximum sentence of Life Imprisonment! THIS IS A WAR! They have declared WAR on us! Our leaders continue to pander to dictators and terrorist supporters ON OUR OWN SOIL! RIGHT NOW! Why aren’t you Angry, America!? And how about you, “Religion of Peace” Muslims? I really want to believe you, really I WANT to accept that as the truth. However, I don’t see “Christian Extremists Blow Up Building” or “Hindu Fundamentalists Hijack Airplane” across the headlines of the daily news. So I want to know, is Islam the “Religion of Peace” only after you all have wiped every other point of view off the face of the Earth? Convince me otherwise. Convince me by getting these headlines in the paper, “Muslim tips off police to Extremist plot” or “Muslim Americans Kill Terrorist Extremist”. Don’t make it a one-time thing either. Police your own religion. The Mormons fought a similar battle with polygamists over the years. They have had to ostracize all polygamists from their churches and society, and rendered practicers into cults. Do the same with yours. And to you, Mr. Smadi, you want to blow up America, huh? Well you best pray to Allah right now that you do get life in prison for your crime. Because if a real American ever gets a hold of you, you will BEG us to kill you! And that is a promise! You terrorists are not frightening me, or the rest of America either. You only serve to bring our wrath upon you. Just you wait till the gloves come off, and then see where you stand. The US could turn the entire Middle East into a bead of glass in a day, and cover it in pig’s blood before week’s end, if we wanted to. Please, keep on trying to harm innocent people, I want to have a good laugh when we finally come off our moral high ground and really get to the business of ending your nonsense.
Seriously, what if the FBI had not intercepted this guy, what if a real bomb maker got him first, gave him a real bomb, and blew a beautiful piece if the Dallas skyline away? How would you feel then? Would you be really mad then? Would you tell your congressman and the federal government that we need less restrictions on our borders and that illegal immigrants need amnesty? Knowing Terrorists are here in our midst, do we really need to be policing the rest of the world, or should we be focusing inward right now? They are bringing the fight to us in spite of our efforts abroad, and there might as well be a welcome sign on our back door. Are you starting to get it now?

Constitutionalism Vs. UN
This week the UN is deliberating whether to reinstate the impeached president of Honduras. He was impeached for attempting to become a dictator, and now, We the US and the rest of the United Nations want to reinstate him!? I thought we were trying to get rid of dictators, not create them. Good luck Honduras, I pray for your sovereignty. To reinstate Zelaya would set a precedent that a nations constitution is irrelevant against the will of the Almighty UN. What will happen when We the People decide it's time to go back to our constitutional roots? Will the UN put troops on American soil to subdue us? God help those who defy the will of American citizens, we are the most tenacious and ferocious fighters on the planet, or at least we used to be. Maybe some of us could spend a little more time on the treadmill.

REALLY!? with Russ K
Really!? No police force in New York has the gall to go and arrest Moammar Gaddafi!? Are you serious!? This man is an embodiment to evil and stands defiantly against our country, on our own soil, with complete impunity!? President Obama, you really, seriously, are just going to let Gaddafi come over here, have a little camping trip, $@!# all over everything America stands for, and then wave bye-bye and wish him a safe trip home!? Really!? And you of all people, Donald Trump, you’re just going to sit back and say, “yeah I own the property, but my partners in the middle east arranged it without my knowledge.” You UN-AMERICAN, TERRORIST PANDERING POS! YOU OWN THE PROPERTY!!!! Do you really need the money that bad!? How much do you stand to make on the deal!? Seriously!? YOU’RE FIRED from being American! It does my soul good to think that there is a window in Heaven that looks down on Hell where I can watch and Laugh at all of your Sorry @$$#$ roasting for all eternity!

Adulthood
How we all like to think that we are adults, and yet so many are just children are growing older each year. Just what separates children from adults? A magical birthday? It’s quite difficult to believe such an arbitrary statement! How can one so easily differentiate between two individuals. How many of us know someone who in spite of being over 30 years old, can still not seem to get themselves together? Legally, we call them adults, but they are in actuality aging children. To be an Adult, one must behave in a manner congruent with adult behavior. Now, we all have our moments of weakness, which is only human; but if you are struggling with simple adult behaviors such as:
living on your ownholding a jobmaintaining a steady relationship
you should really consider your position in life. Addiction and obsession are not adult behaviors. Neither is vindictiveness, boisterousness or any number of other unethical attitudes. Sexual Promiscuity is NOT an adult behavior, for it is instant gratification of immature desire. And just who am I to tell you about it? Well, I’ve acted in far worse capacity than anything written here, and somehow miraculously survived the ordeal. Is it easy being a responsible adult? Absolutely not! However, America needs adults, not more children. And if you need more incentive to get your act together, I’ll leave you with this.
Women: YOU are the founders of America’s next generation, of its leaders, and it’s losers. Do you really, really think that that loser sleazeball is going to get his act together, get a real job and be a real father to your children? Nope? Me either, and just how many loser dads father brilliant successful children? The odds are not in your favor. Cut your losses, find a real man and have winner babies. America is counting on you. By the way, if you’re into going out to bars getting drunk and taking the first horny guy that approaches you, don’t expect any real men to come calling, cause no matter how hot you are, you’re unattractive morally.
Men: We all know what our other head tells us to do. But if you can’t handle the consequences, keep that shotgun holstered.
If you do happen to be a loser dad with abandoned kids, it may not be too late. Swallow your quite undeserved pride, ditch your vices, get to work, and apologize profusely for being the POS that you have been. Then get your sorry butt a decent place for children to visit, maybe even live. Give up your recreations, they will slow you down, and you are already behind the power curve. Learn how to be a man, a real man. I’m not talking about macho movie men, that’s fiction. A man that knows how to love, protect and lead a family, that’s the kind of man you must be. It’s a daunting task, and you will receive little help in today’s society, although Church helps. In fact I don’t know that this task can be accomplished outside of divine intervention, so prayer will be necessary. Don’t think it’s possible? I did it. It’s about 3 years of pure Hell, but well worth it.
And for all: If you are unattractive in some way, it’s most likely because you are unfit to pass your genetic material on to the next generation. That sounds harsh, I know, but in reality 90 percent of unattractiveness can be remedied with diligence and hard work. If your dumb, read some books. If your fat, exercise and eat better. If your skinny, go work out. It’s not overnight, and it’s not magic. Jesus Christ himself had no attractive physical attributes, yet he is loved by millions the world over. Because really, at the end of the day, attractiveness has little to do with outside appearance. And if you are an adult you already know that.
Courtesy to my loving wife for the bible verse:
"If we please God, he will make us wise, understanding, and happy. But if we sin, God will make us struggle for a living, then he will give all we own to someone who pleases him."Ecclesiastes 2:26
