GREAT Story!

Had to share this, my good buddy Mark sent this story to me today:

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher, whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Obama and his bid to be our President.

The old rancher said, 'Well, ya know, Obama is a post turtle'.' Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a 'post turtle' was.

The old rancher said, 'When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle'.'

The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain. 'You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there, and you just wonder what kind of a dumb ass put him up there to begin with.'

Obama's Anti-2nd Amendment

On the Second Amendment,
Don’t Believe Obama!

The presidential primary season is finally over, and it is now time for
gun owners to take a careful look at just where apparent nominee
Barack Obama stands on issues related to the Second Amendment.
During the primaries, Obama tried to hide behind vague statements of
support for “sportsmen” or unfounded claims of general support for the
right to keep and bear arms.

But his real record, based on votes taken, political associations, and
long standing positions, shows that Barack Obama is a serious threat to
Second Amendment liberties. Don’t listen to his campaign rhetoric!
Look instead to what he has said and done during his entire political
career.

FACT: Barack Obama voted to allow reckless lawsuits designed
to bankrupt the firearms industry.1

FACT: Barack Obama wants to re-impose the failed and
discredited Clinton Gun Ban.2

FACT: Barack Obama voted to ban almost all rifle ammunition
commonly used for hunting and sport shooting.3

FACT: Barack Obama has endorsed a complete ban on handgun ownership.2

FACT: Barack Obama supports local gun bans in Chicago, Washington, D.C., and other cities.4

FACT: Barack Obama supports gun owner licensing and gun registration.6

FACT: Barack Obama refused to sign a friend-of-the-court Brief in support of individual Second
Amendment rights in the Heller case.

FACT: Barack Obama opposes Right to Carry laws.7

FACT: Barack Obama was a member of the Board of Directors of the Joyce Foundation, the
leading source of funds for anti-gun organizations and “research.”8

FACT: Barack Obama supported a proposal to ban gun stores within 5 miles of a school or park,
which would eliminate almost every gun store in America.9

Playoffs

Well our church league softball playoffs start tonight. 8pm game, possibly playing again at 9:15 depending on who wins and who loses. Hopefully we just win and play another night, because I don't feel like lifting weights at 11:30pm, but I will if I got to.

Speaking of the weights, on week 5 of my new diet and exercise program...I'm trying to think of a good name for it considering I built it myself from a combination of multiple workouts and research. Might be the next big thing. Results have been pretty good so far, adjusting my schedule for week 6 and the following weeks, trying something a little different. Pulled a pair of jeans from the closet this morning, first time I'd worn them since they were washed and they fit loosely, that's a plus...usually have to "break in" a pair of freshly washed jeans.

Dinner time, Southwest Salad of some sort, my wonderful wife "made up" the recipe as she went along. Should be good.
