THINGS OF NOTE
1. The xbox360 might be the greatest gaming system ever made. It is easy to use, games are affordable and plentiful and the online play is fast.
2. The cold air is crippling me. It seems that any progress that I made health wise over the summer has been pushed back. I am back to taking pain medicine and using biofreeze. Is there nothing that can be done to help me?
3. When is this road construction going to end? It is suppose to start wrapping up once it hits November yet it seems that the keep starting more and more projects. Here is an idea, FINISH SOMETHING, ANYTHING before starting more projects.
4. I ate at "In a Tub" yesterday for the first time and I couldn't believe that this little gem had slipped my radar for so long. If you are up North and looking for cheap Mexican fast food I suggest you give it a shot.
5. I put a disclaimer up on the blog today. It was something that I felt had to be done in order to maintain some sorta order in here. It isn't as if I have had a lot of negative comments (4 total). Most people that read this spot "get it". Others seem to have a hard time dealing with the fact that someone might have different views of the world than them and they look past the humor in which most of these posts are made. So that is the reason for the disclaimer. This place is suppose to be fun, not a ground for an open debate on social issues(start your own blog). If you would like to leave a comment or shoot me an email that is fine but know that if it is a negative comment it will not be published or responded to, same with emails. This is mostly in regards to anything political. If you have differing opinions on food, music, motorcycles, my rants they will be published.
6. Does anyone else think that a light rail system shooting down Metcalf from 151st street to Johnson Drive (North - South) and from State line to Woodland road on 119th street make sense?. If the other metro counties want to link up great but why are we waiting until KCMO come up with a plan that will stick?
7. The Girl Scout cookie shakedown has begun. I am already on the hook for 10 boxes from my bosses kid and god only knows how many my wife will order from her friends. I think that I will resell them on E Bay in June when people have run out of thin mints and need their fix.
8. On Veterans day I had one person say Happy Veterans day to me. Gee thanks. On a good note this blog is read by many troops serving overseas from this area and I have received some great emails from them.
9. My buddy just spent $700 on a pair of tickets for the MU/KU game. $700! If MU were to lose on Saturday to K State the game becomes a nonfactor. I couldn't imagine spending that much on two tickets to one event. I remember being able to get in for free at half time to KU football games. Thank you to all of you Bandwagon fans for driving up the price of the tickets.
10. LED - Zeppelin if finally available on I Tunes for purchase.
11. I have not watched one KU Basketball game yet this year. I find it hard to start watching college basketball in November unless it is a major preseason tournament. Watching KU destroy the likes of UMKC means nothing.
12. What do Indians do for Thanksgiving?

WAFFLE ALERT - Hillary has made up her mind
Billary has finally taken a stand (for today) and made up her mind on DL's for illegal aliens. She is against them(maybe). If she is truly against them then why didn't she just say that in the last debate? Simple, she actually thinks that it is a good idea but is afraid to voice her true opinions on this matter. Osama Obama is taking her to the shed on this issue, here is a quote from her fellow dem.
"When it takes two weeks and six different positions to answer one question on immigration, it's easier to understand why the Clinton campaign would rather plant their questions than answer them,"
Another dem quote from Dodds camp
"flip-flopping cubed. She was for it before she was against it, before she was for it, before she was against it."
She has no shot in a general election.
My Top 30 Movies- Non Holiday
Anytime anyone puts together a list of movies something always gets left out so I am sure I may do some editing to this post down the road. You will not find Gone with the Wind, Casablanca etc... This list is movies of my generation with a few exceptions.
1. Clerks
2. Shindlers List - Could only watch this movie one time.
3. Saving Private Ryan - Can not watch the end of this movie
4. We were soldiers
5. The Departed
6. The Godfather series - Except 3
7. Star wars series - Except 1
8. Pulp Fiction
9. American History X - Maybe the best movie on this list
10. Patton
11. Lord of the Rings series
12. Goodfellas
13. Indiana Jones Series
14. Transformers
15. Fight Club
16. Wall Street
17. Reservoir Dogs
18. Swingers

MORNING QUICK HITS
If you read this blog at least once a day chances are you will be more informed of current events than 70% of the country.
1. Russians set to go Waco? It is too bad we can't get the Phelps gang in on that action. Fred put your money where your mouth is.
2. The power of Ipod is greater than the power to vote at NYU? This is good news. NYU has long been a breeding ground of socialist.
3. This guy cracks me up. The whole state is going through a drought and nearly in a state of emergency and this guy is watering his lawn in the middle of the night.
4. The LAPD has decided not to map Muslims because of the bad PR it was receiving. It is a good thing that I did it for them.
5. Mexico raging terror war along US border. How is this not news? The Kurds in Iraq are doing the same thing to Turkey and that is an international crisis.

QUICK HITS
1. Someone finally takes a stand against the Chicken Dance.
2. KCMO Police detain Toad. In other parts of town people are getting shot, raped, car jacked etc... but the city sleeps peacefully tonight knowing that Toad is locked up. Bond has not been set.
3. PMS blamed for wife missing. It was odd reading about a guy using PMS to cover up for something. If your last name is Peterson, your name rhymes with acey and you are married the holidays suck for you. First Lacey and now Stacey.
4. We all know that drinking leads to pregnancy but now it is safe to drink while pregnant.
5. Women make crappy carjackers. Expect these 5 to utilize the above mentioned Peterson defense.
6. Crappy drivers are the least of your worries when driving on KC highways. I am all for a draw bridge system surrounding Johnson County.
7. USA! USA! USA!
HISPANIC PC IS GOING TOO FAR
By Melissa Underwood An Arizona Spanish-language radio station is blasting a local police department for what it says is racial profiling: describing the suspect in a series of child rapes as "Hispanic." Police are offering $25,000 for any information leading to an arrest in the case of the "Chandler Rapist," who began assaulting victims in Chandler, Ariz., in June 2006. The suspect is described as Hispanic, 28 to 40 years old, short with a muscular build, dark hair and hazel or brown eyes.
Phoenix news talk radio station, KNUV 1190 AM, has complained to the police department about the description, claiming that "Hispanic" refers to an ethnicity, not a race.
"Hispanic could be white, it could be black, it could be dark-skinned complexion," said Mayra Nieves, vice president of programming. "We Hispanics see it that way."
Police won't budge. They say they are following normal procedures for releasing information based on victims' descriptions. Five victims between the ages of 12 and 14 have described their assailant as Hispanic.

ANOTHER LIBERAL PLAN FAILS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The arrogance of liberals is fascinating. They come up with these socialist plans in dark room where nobody can see or hear them. They do this because they don't think YOU CAN.
The plus side to this whole thing is that most liberals have no spine. This is why they are always labeled wafflers in elections and need to spin all of their ideas. The lack of spine often times means that these programs never come to fruition and we can continue to be a free country rather than a socialist republic.

GOOD NEWS FOR JEWISH PEOPLE
The leader of the Democratic Party (Howard Dean) says that Jewish people can go to heaven. The democrats even think that they control heaven. Of course if they did you would pay a tax to enter.
