    Come On Spring--I wanna

    I want to expand and finish my second turkey house. It's going to get a garage for my lawn tractor and garden tools. Then we need to plant some barley and do more fencing. Whenever I go to work on Monday I always get asked what I did over the weekend. The answer is always the same. Fencing or...

    SKR8PN.... two small butts........

    I stand corrected. I was going by what we were told when we started a business back in 93. We lasted 3 years. I thought we had beat the odds before we failed. Oh well.

    Sorry I'm not that old. Wasn't around back then. Just going from history classes, but I went to public school. So who knows. Bad government. They are truly the bane of mankind.

    SKR8PN.... two small butts........

    2% of small businesses make it through the 1st year. If you made it you did good and you beat the odds. It takes more than hard work. It takes proper management and hard work and not spending money you don't have or don't have a very good plan for paying back. !!!!!!CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!

    SKR8PN.... two small butts........

    I think most apprentice programs are union based. Or I should say were union based. Of course maybe the ones being talked about were the ones from the 1700's where you slaved for someone and in exchange they taught you their trade. Then after 6-8 years you could go somewhere else and hang out...

    Goverment strikes again

    No more HS for the kids. The kids need social interaction and the turkeys just aren't enough. Besides I want to get as many free breakfast as we can before they cut the gravy train off.

    Lucky Me--FREE!

    We put CFL's in about 5 years ago. About 20 altogether. Haven't replaced a single one. I love them. Wish our power company would send something free.

    Goverment strikes again

    That's why the gov doesn't depend on charities to help out the poor. All that picking and choosing lets a lot of kids starve. I guess they could just turn the whole welfare system over to church groups. Each family that needs welfare could have a volunteer do gooder assigned to that family...

    What's all this tax stuff about Feb 15th?

    The Bush tax cuts were supposed to expire on Dec 31st 2010. The child tax credit as well as a few other items were included in those tax cuts. The software companies and the IRS were set up for the cuts to expire. At the end of the year. Then the tax cuts were extended for 2 years. So now all...

    Goverment strikes again

    Same reason Social Services pulls kids out of unhealthy and violent situations. Because as a nation we care about our kids and their survival as well as their ability to succeed in life. Breakfast isn't going to save a kids life. It might help the kids brain to function a little better if they...

    Goverment strikes again

    The new house majority that controls the purse strings in Colorado cut the school breakfast program. As the leading Republican from Colorado Springs stated. "If the parents of those children can't afford to feed them breakfast than they aren't working hard enough". He did qualify that with the...

    So is the s*%t starting to hit the fan for you?

    Yes the middle class is fairly recent. In the US it was created by unions and the growth of manufacturing. Now that we can no longer be competitive because of labor and health care cost the middle class is being severely depleted. Once the cost of labor in other countries rises and between that...

    So is the s*%t starting to hit the fan for you?

    In my opinion they are related. It may not be the intended consequence, but it is exactly what is happening. Yes there are a lot of people at the top that are getting rich over it. Look at China and India and tell me their standard of living has not increased. Look at all the unemployed people...

    You already have the best ribs out there. Of course your husband is a master at finishing them off.

    So is the s*%t starting to hit the fan for you?

    The way you put a ? mark after teaching, leads me to believe you took it as offensive. That is not the case at all. Teaching is imparting knowledge to others. Your opinion is very welcome. Outside views are needed. The United States is in a period of transition. Portions of our biggest sector...

    So is the s*%t starting to hit the fan for you?

    Yep. Feel free to keep on teaching. There's many countries that have the same personal freedoms as us. We just happen to have the biggest economy and the strongest military.

    So is the s*%t starting to hit the fan for you?

    Many Americans feel they are exclusive. As in we are special in the eyes of God. Because of this the country tends to not know a thing about the rest of the world. The closest we get is 1 semester of world history and a geography class where we learn the names of the continents. The great...
