Second amendment thoughts…

Posted on June 27th, 2008 in ramblings | Comments

I will eventually weave all this into a Herdwatching post… but here is a quick peek at my comments in a discussion on FriendFeed.

“Obviously I hope I never >need< a gun, but I absolutely demand the right to own one. It is not for the government to disarm me and render me helpless and entirely dependent on the largess of the government to keep me safe. My life is mine to have, to make the most of and ultimately to defend. I have no intention of having to hope that someone else comes to save me from the violent, psychotic fringe that will always be with us. I own a weapon to protect myself from criminals and, if need be, my government.

In demanding the right to keep and bear arms the US citizen is demanding that our government treat us as self determining humans with the power, ultimately, to make independent decisions on the use of deadly force. We demand to take unto ourselves the final responsibility for our own well being. For me, a populace that has allowed their government to render them helpless and defenseless on a personal level has allowed themselves to become wards of a state that has become their surrogate parent.” – Soulhuntre in a discussion on Friendfeed

There ya go, in a nutshell.

I have been playing with different video platforms today. So we will be seeing how this goes and where it takes me. This is a reply I put up about teachers and education.

Video blog entry, testing out ustream.tv for this. You might need to hit play / pause / play if it doesn’t run - it needs to buffer.

Total Victory.

When I am bored, I torture my friends. Often by sending them semi-hot, semi-offensive links. I am amused by it. Here is the log of a recent event. I have changed the name to protect their dignity. (update below)

staycations

Posted on June 5th, 2008 in ramblings | Comments

Who knew? I have been ahead of the curve most of my life in yet one more area :)

The term “staycation” is gaining ground as gas prices go up – it basically means stay home and chill out. Personally, I always loved them. All my stuff is home.
