13 - August - 2010 -- Shooting Star

13 - August - 2010 -- Shooting Star , originally uploaded by reway2007 . I was driving through California after dark last night ... and did see a little more meteors than normal as I drove through the Sierra Nevada. But only a few as I was driving with at least one eye on the road in front of me!

Gas Hogs in California

For the past couple days I went with my brother, sister-in-law and my nephews to camping along Pacific Coast. I hadn't been to the area for twenty years. This trip I only went to Mendocino - Manchester - Fort Bragg area. Twenty years ago I pretty much visited the entire California coast. Twenty years ago there weren't brochures reminding everyone the enviromentally-kind ways to visit the coast. Today those brochures, that I'm sure they're hoping will be recycled, are focusing on being eco-friendly. They even have "hybrid cars only" parking spots in California because they're so progressive thinking.

Ted Stevens

Ted Stevens , originally uploaded by Tori. . I was very saddened to hear of the passing on former Senator Ted Stevens. He was a leader in my home state most of my life. He was the kind of polician that was bipartisan in that he was in touch with the needs of Alaskans. I used to live in the town near where his plane went down, and worked for a mostly liberal-minded agency that had little trouble getting Ted Stevens to lend an ear to various ideas. He was the kind of politician that those of us working in public jobs and had dealings with his office could agree with, or disagree with ... and mostly not be annoyed with. The public in general might not have seen that side because they just see what the media portrays. Years ago when I was still teaching I went with a group of youth from Bristol Bay and Anchorage to Washintgon DC for the Close-Up Program. Dillingham was there. A friend of mine that now works for the State of Alaska was a senior at the time. Anyway, there was some big vote (

We're All Socialists Now

We are all Socialists Now by newsweek View other Socialism Ha. After I was complaining about laws infecting all aspects of our life with additional costs ... I see that the Newsweek store at Zazzle sells back issues. If you missed it the first time, here is the "We're All Socialists Now" back issue that Glenn Beck talks about.

Anyone Notice

I can hear Glenn Beck in the other room talking on the TV talking about accepting the government bailouts just because they can are available is enslaving our kids to pay back the debt. Makes sense to me. Personal responsibility isn't a bad thing. Maybe it's time to dump the mortagage if you can't afford it. Just maybe? Then FOX cuts to commercial...
