Historic election So, no matter who gets elected this November, it will be an historical moment: If Hillary Clinton wins the U.S. presidential election, it will be the first time in history that two U.S. Presidents have slept with each other. If Donald Trump wins the U.S. Presidential election, it will be the first time in history that a billionaire moves into public housing vacated by a black family.

If you ever wondered which side of the fence you sit on, this is a great test! If a Republican doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one. If a Democrat doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed. If a Republican is a vegetarian, he doesn't eat meat. If a Democrat is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone. If a Republican is homosexual, he quietly leads his life. If a Democrat is homosexual, he demands legislated respect. If a Republican is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. If a Democrat is down-and-out he wonders who is going to take care of him. If a Republican doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels. A Democrat demands that those they don't like be shut down. If a Republican is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church. A Democrat non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. If a Republican decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it. If a Democrat decides he needs health care, he demands that the rest of us pay for his.

Hillary voters.

The most important six inches .................. is between your ears" His last quote is as good as it gets! March 18, 2013 Gen. James Mattis, known to his troops as "Mad Dog Mattis," retired after 41 years of military service. The Marine Corps Times is calling Mattis the "most revered Marine in a generation." 1.. "I don't lose any sleep at night over the potential for failure. I cannot even spell the word." (San Diego Union Tribune) 2.. "The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event. That said, there are some assholes in the world that just need to be shot." (Business Insider) 3.. "I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you screw with me, I'll kill you all." (said to the Iraqi leadership) (San Diego Union Tribune) 4.. "Find the enemy that wants to end this experiment (in American democracy) and kill every one of them until they're so sick of the killing that they leave us and our freedoms intact." (San Diego Union Tribune) 5.. "Marines don't know how to spell the word defeat." (Business Insider) 6.. "Be polite, be professional but have a plan to kill everybody you meet." (San Diego Union Tribune) 7.. "The most important six inches on the battlefield is between your ears." (San Diego Union Tribune) 8.. "You are part of the world's most feared and trusted force. Engage your brain before you engage your weapon." (Mattis' Letter To 1st Marine Division) Gen. Mattis in 2006 9.. "There are hunters and there are victims. By your discipline, cunning, obedience and alertness, you will decide if you are a hunter or a victim." (Business Insider) 10. "No war is over until the enemy says it's over.

(San Diego Union Tribune) 12. "You cannot allow any of your people to avoid the brutal facts. If they start living in a dream world, it's going to be bad." (San Diego Union Tribune) Gen. Mattis and Gen. Dempsey 13. "You go into Afghanistan , you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot. It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you. I like brawling."

Humor From The Deep South Alabama A group of Alabama friends went deer hunting and paired off in twos for the day. That night, one of the hunters returned alone, staggering under the weight of an eight-point buck. "Where's Henry?" the others asked. "Henry had a stroke of some kind. He's a couple of miles back up the trail," the successful hunter replied. "You left Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?" they inquired. "A tough call," nodded the hunter. "But I figured no one is going to steal Henry!" Georgia The owner of a golf course in Georgia was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He called her into his office and said, "You graduated from the University of Georgia and I need some help. If I were to give you $20,000, minus 14%, how much would you take off?" The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, "Everything but my earrings." Tennessee A Tennessee State trooper pulled over a pickup on I-65. The trooper asked, "Got any ID?" The driver replied, "Bout whut?" Texas The Sheriff pulled up next to the guy unloading garbage out of his pick-up into the ditch. The Sheriff asked, "Why are you dumping garbage in the ditch? Don't you see that sign right over your head?" "Yep," he replied. "That's why I dumpin it here, cause it says: 'Fine For Dumping Garbage'." Louisiana Reverend Boudreaux was the part-time pastor of the local Cajun Baptist Church and Pastor Thibodeaux was the minister of the Covenant Church across the road. They were both standing by the road, pounding a sign into the ground, that read: 'Da End is Near Turn Yo Sef 'Roun Now Afore It Be Too Late!' As a car sped past them, the driver leaned out his window and yelled, 'You religious nuts!' From the curve they heard screeching tires, and a big splash...Boudreaux turns to Thibodeaux and asks, 'Do ya tink maybe da sign should jussay.....'Bridge Out?' Mississippi The young man from Mississippi came running into the store and said to his buddy, "Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the parking lot!" Bubba replied, "Did you see who it was?" The young man answered, "I couldn't tell, but I got the license number." South Carolina Two boll weevils grew up in South Carolina. One went to Hollywood and became a famous actor. The other stayed behind in the cotton fields and never amounted to much. The second one, naturally, became known as the lesser of two weevils. How do you know when you're staying in a South Carolina hotel? When you call the front desk and say "I've gotta leak in my sink," and the person at the front desk says "Go ahead." Florida A man and his wife were driving their RV across Florida and were nearing a town called Kissimmee. They noted the strange spelling and tried to figure how to pronounce it -- KISS-a-me; kis-IM-me; kis-a-ME? They grew more perplexed as they drove into the town. Since they were hungry, they pulled into a restaurant to get something to eat. At the counter, the man said to the waitress; "My wife and I can't seem to be able to figure out how to pronounce this place. Will you tell me where we are and say it very slowly so that I can understand?" The woman looked at him and said; "Buuurrrgerrr Kiiiinnnng." Virginia After Osama Bin Laden was killed, the next thing he knew, he was standing before the Pearly Gates. There he met George Washington. "How dare you attack the nation I helped conceive!" yelled Mr. Washington, as he slapped Osama in the face. Patrick Henry came up from behind. "You wanted to end the Americans’ liberty, so they gave you death!" Henry punched Osama in the nose. James Madison came up next, and said, "This is why I allowed the Federal government to provide for the common defense!" Then he delivered a kick to Osama’s knee. Osama took similar beatings from John Randolph, James Monroe, Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and 63 other people who have the same love for liberty and America. As Thomas Jefferson hurled him against the gates, Osama saw someone who was not American, and recognized him immediately. "Mohammed!" Osama screamed. "Great Prophet, this is not what I was promised!" Mohammed replied, "I told you there would be 70 Virginians waiting for you in Paradise. What did you think I said?" *** You can say what you want about the South, but you never hear of anyone retiring and moving North!

Johnny's mother looked out the window and noticed him "playing church" with their cat. He had the cat sitting quietly and he was preaching to it. She smiled and went about her work. A while later she heard loud meowing and hissing and ran back to the open window to see Johnny baptizing the cat in a tub of water. She called out, "Johnny, stop that! The cat is afraid of water!" Johnny looked up at her and said, "He should have thought about that before he joined my church."

When Bill and Hillary first got married Bill said, "I put a box under the bed. Promise me you will never to look in it." In all their 30 years of marriage, Hillary never looked. On the afternoon of their 30th anniversary, curiosity got the best of her and she lifted the lid and peeked inside. In it were 3 empty beer cans and $81,874.25 in cash. She closed the box and put it back under the bed. Now that she knew what was in the box, she was doubly curious as to why there was such a box and with those contents. That evening, they were out for a special anniversary dinner. After dinner, Hillary could no longer contain her curiosity and she confessed, saying, “I'm so sorry, Bill. For all these years, I kept my promise and never looked into the box under our bed. However, today the temptation was too much and I gave in. But now I need to know, why do you keep the 3 beer cans in the box?” Bill thought for a while and said, "I guess after all these years you deserve to know the truth. Whenever I was unfaithful to you, I put an empty beer can in the box under the bed to remind myself not to do it again.” Hillary was shocked, but thought, "Hmmm, Jennifer, Paula and Monica. And since I know he is addicted to sex, three times is not too bad.” She said, ”OK Bill, I guess I can forgive you.” Bill thanked her for being so understanding. They hugged and made their peace. A little while later Hillary asked Bill, "So why do you have all that money in the box?” He answered, "Well, whenever the box filled up with empty cans, I took them to the recycling center."

LOL, thanks Vince, I needed that.

It seems that lately my life has been getting more complicated, and I want to thank those of you who are brave enough to still associate with me regardless of what I have become. The following is a recap of my current identity: I was born white, which makes me a racist. I am a fiscal and moral conservative, which makes me a fascist. I am heterosexual, which makes me a homophobe. I am non-union, which makes me a traitor to the working class and an ally of big business. I am a Christian, which makes me an infidel. I am older than 60 and retired, which makes me a useless old person. I think and I reason; therefore I doubt much that the main stream media tells me, which makes me a reactionary. I am proud of my heritage and our inclusive American culture, which makes me a xenophobe. I value my safety and that of my family; therefore I appreciate the police and the legal system, which makes me a right-wing extremist. I believe in hard work, fair play, and fair compensation according to each individual's merits, which makes me anti-social. I, and my friends, acquired a good education without student loans and no debt at graduation, which makes me some kind of odd underachiever. I believe in the defense and protection of the homeland by all citizens, which makes me a militarist. Please help me come to terms with this, because I‘m not sure who I am anymore!

Good Point!

Here’s a very scary thought: I had to take my vehicle to the mechanic the other day for service. The Service Manager, Pete, gave me a ride home and on the way he told me his theory about the upcoming election and the next four years of U.S. government. At first I thought it a bit far fetched. But as I listened to him it began to make sense, scary sense. “I believe that Hillary Clinton will win the election in November,” Pete began. “Then, sometime between November and January, Hillary will be indicted. The IRS is now investigating the Clinton Foundation and the whole e-mail thing isn’t over yet. Once under indictment she won’t be able to assume the Office of the President in January. Tim Kaine, who will not actually be the Vice President because neither he nor Hillary have been inaugurated, cannot assume the Presidency. The Speaker of the House can’t move up to it because there is already a sitting President and Vice President. So President Obama, in an Executive Order citing 'emergency situation,' gives himself another four years in office is the only way possible.” Pete believes Obama has been planning this for a while now, knowing he has enough on Hillary to indict her. Had the Attorney General indicted her based on evidence from the FBI, the plan wouldn’t have worked because the DNC would have quickly come up with another candidate. If you think about it, it’s not that outrageous. Many people on the left, including the President, want Obama to stay another four years. The law prohibits him from being re-elected so the only 2 ways he can do it is either by declaring martial law and suspending the election (which would be a very negative thing for the country) or to declare himself still President because the elected candidate cannot assume her duties. The latter makes more sense and is actually more feasible. And since it’s never been done before, it would set a precedent that would be difficult to challenge. Of course, if Trump wins the election none of this is going to happen. But what if Pete is correct? Four more years of Obama and a mostly useless Republican House and Senate would give Obama the time he needs to continue destroying the country to fit his stated goals. I thanked Pete for the ride home – and for messing up my day. Now I’ve got more things to worry about!

Neither of us drink, we carry koolers and brush cutting tools mostly, well and the wife's purse of course,, we also usually carry an ice cream bucket with water.

Few Pics from today s Ride

We're going today in a little while. There's some crap going on now with Tuscobia, the State turned it over to the County and County turned it over to the clubs, BUT there is some major repairs to be done including a huge washout East of Winter which is more than 12 feet deep, right now there is a 20+ mile town roads detour around it so we have been going West instead as we have dirt tires and wish to stay off pavement. The Clubs don't have the funds to do the repairs without some help from the State and that's to be determined yet so nothing is getting done.

Thanks Vince. We're loading up now to go to Tuscobia, was supposed to go Fishing today but Jackie wants to try the new ride, probably go from Winter to SW of Birchwood and perhaps back to Park Falls although some of Tuscobia has washed out East of Winter and hasn't been fixed yet.

The ATV or the RZR the friend bought today?
