signals

i am aware lately that no one seems to care about signaling before making turning their car. not sure why but it is sure confusing to others who are totally unsure what the non signaler is doing next. this new driving habit also includes stopping in the middle of the road and not using any signal to say i am not moving.

well all of this is just selfish.

c'mon folks this should be about all of us sharing the road and helping each other by signaling our intentions so others can make better driving decisions themselves

i have not been here often as i have not felt i wanted to share any thoughts. my main interest has been my Australian Shepherd, KC. i have been training her for about 2 1/2 years and she is getting quite good. i also play golf but am not all that happy about my game. i know i can do better but have to get out of my way in order to actually get better. i am working on it.

i stopped watching all the talking heads on television in political world because very few of them have anything to say worth remembering. they seem to be there simply to hear themselves talk and i for one have lost all interest in anything they say.

politics has become a bore. everyone is full of hyperbole and avoids the facts at all costs. i have no patience for the baloney they spread.

i hope this is a good election. i want Obama to be re elected if for no other reason than for mitch McConnel to have wasted his last 4 years following his only goal that of making Obama a one term president. can you imaging an elected official taking such a nonsensical position?

i hope to be back more frequently and not waste your time or mine so for the moment that is it.

good luck

i am sorry but i don't get why the gun control lobby has power. is it the money they give to politicians?  is that money so important that the politicians vote against what the public wants? we have too many guns in America and too many people who should not have them have access to them and use them to kill other citizens. now we are going to learn the boy who shot the theatergoers was a quiet, nice boy living down the street. he was a good neighbor and a friend. everyone who knew him will tell how they liked him and how shocked they were that he did these horrific things. well could he have done so much damage with a knife? if he did not have access to guns he could not have done what he did and forget that nonsense about others if armed should have stepped in and stopped him from killing all the people he did. fact is they would have shot the wrong people, others would have shot them or the cops would have and there would be even more pandemonium. if we are not going to control access to guns we need to figure out how to level consequences at those who take the laws into their own hands and severely punish them so they don't see themselves on the cover of TIME magazine but rather see themselves put away on hard terms forever.
