racist or sexist?

I will admit i didn't vote for Obama/biden or McCain/palin-but i did vote.

I had problems voting for either one cause i kept hearing if u don't vote for my party your are racist or if you don't for my party your are a sexist.i am neither and i have never been one or another.I feel if the person is fit to do the job regardless of their sex,color or religion more power to them.it was hard to follow the election when both parties spend more time attacking the other party for one reason or another.I am sick and tired or the dirt they throw at one another.lets concentrate more on what they are going to do for the country and how they will try to improve the economy and fix what is wrong.instead all you see is ads saying what they are doing wrong.I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY DID 20 YEARS AGO OR EVEN 5 YEARS AGO.i want to know what are they going to be doing the next 4 years as our president.i want to know did they vote for Obama cause they didn't want a female vice president or they really believe he will provide a change for us as a country?I hope it was for the latter.when Mr. Obama won the democratic ticket i already knew he would win.
people are sick and tired of president bush and his policy and knowing Mr.McCain would follow in his footsteps,so Mr.Obama was the obvious choice.

but whoever you voted for i want ya'll to remember to pray for our new leader for his will have 4 years to clean up a mess that took 8 years to make-he has his hands full and it will take more than 1 term to clean it up.he has no easy task ahead of him-love him or hate him he is there for 4 years and as myself i will be praying for him-for he will need alot of strength for being the first black president everything he does or say will be under a microscope-and that is a shame-lets forget about his color and lets look at him as a man who is our president elect and he got there by our votes and he deserves to be there. like i said i did not vote for him but he has my support for the next 4 years as our president. and i will not be watching his every move-that is not my job to judge him or point out his mistakes-(that is God's job)he don't need my help or yours.just pray for him whether you like him or not.and that God will protect him from all the lunatics that should try to get rid of him-

MR.OBAMA I KNOW YOU WILL NEVER SEE THIS BLOG BUT I WANT YOU TO KNOW I WILL PRAY FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY TO KEEP YOU FROM HARM AND HELP YOU TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISIONS.
REMEMBER WHEN THINGS ARE LOOKING DOWN LOOK UP AND YOU WILL FIND THE HELP YOU NEED IN OUR SAVIOUR.

senseless death of our babies

a man dropped 4 of his kids off the dauphin island bridge in Alabama into the gulf of Mexico-all 4 of his kids were found dead from the coast of Alabama all the way to Louisiana.

he did it after a fight with his wife. 

few days later another person did the same up north. every time we open the paper or turn on the news we hear about someone killing their young kids as well as their babies

.what is wrong with theses people?

some plea mentally insane and they get off with a light sentence or in state hospital somewhere.

there need to be something done about this and needs to be done quickly.it is only going to get worse and it needs to be stopped.

but the problem we are facing is how do we stop it?

how do we know what will cause a parent/parents to go off the deep end and dump their kids in the gulf or a river or anywhere for that matter.

can people around them not see theses signs or do they disguise it so well,

or do they just snap from a originally person to someone who had just lost their mind?

how can we prevent this from happening before it happens again and again?

what do we look for?

or how do we spot someone who is on the edge of going over board?

do theses people all of a sudden go from a nice loving person to a child killing maniac?

 how can we help theses kids if we don't know what to look for? 

maybe the authorities or doctors or someone can tell us what to look for.

what can we do on out part to help?

I guess one day they will figure out what cause someone to snap and how we can spot them before another child is lost.

what next?

after hearing about the fighting among kids and then posting it on you tube.not one on one but a group of kids ganging up against one.it has gotten out of hand and to think our future of this country is in their hands.where was the parents when this was happening?do they no longer care what their children do?of course at writing it has died down and everyone has gone on with their lives like it never happened.are we so numb that after a few days it is old news and no one really cares or have we just got use to the violents and thankful it was not one of us or our kids.its not going to die down in the case of the poor kids who gets ganged up against and the anger it caused the parents.this will keep up until someone say enough!!!!!
parents take responsibilty of your kids and put a stop to it and do it before more get beat up or injured or crippled or dead.this has to stop and it has to start in the home.don't let peer pressue put u as someone who don't want to do this and do it cause u afraid of not being accepted by your peers.stand up and stand out-it has to start with someone so why not you? isn't it time to say enough is enough?or do u care less what is it you next time.what would stop your so call friends to turn against you and do the same? its always not me its always the other person-who do u think the other person is? look in the mirror it could be you next and you will wonder why but it will be to late. before you have to attend a funeral of someone you love or care for or even a sister or a brother or cousin. or even YOU!!!!!!!!!

aftermath of tuesday elections

well obama took mississippi by storm.well is that a good thing or a bad thing.apparently to majority of the people here it is a good thing.rumors are they will join forces anyway(clinton and obama)so it will be them versus mccain.who will win i have no ideal-who do i like well in all honesty neither but apparently i will have to vote for one of them.none of them have impress me and i don't know about their policy to know weather or not they will be good or bad for the country and how much is actually lip service.its a shame we have to wait untill they are in office,to bad there isn't a period where we can say wait we change our minds and lets let the other person take over.but once they are in thats it for 4 years.i wish politicians would stop bickering and pointing out the other persons faults and concentrate instead what they are actually going to do for the america people.(besides having their hands in our pockets and taking our hard earn cash)i know there is always a price for having who we want in office.to bad we have to suffer for their mistakes. well enough of my bickering.

the next president of the usa

its down to mr.obama and mrs clinton for the democrat and then mr.mccain for the rep.
i will be honest it is kind of scarey who will win.i still don't know enough about any of them to really know how i will vote.so much going on in the world here on the mississippi gulf coast we are still rebuilding,and next door in louisiana they are still hurting as well.then the war in iraq and the trouble in israel,and the hunt for terroist is still going on without much success.the men and women in uniform are doing a great job i know its not them.its the higher ups.north korea and iran seems they might be a threat.and how about the recall on china made stuff.the next president already has a plateful and they are not even in office yet.do we think any of them will be able to do any good on any of this or will they be overwhelmed?
i wonder how will they be able to put in plan what they want plus take care of the crisis we are already facing.i will not say president bush has not done a good job or say he has done nothing but bad for our country.its just we forget the good he has done after all the bad that has been going on the last few years.we vote and we complain.

i did not vote for him but to try to look at it from both sides of the coin,try to be positive in a negative world.mister bush i know and i realize running a country is no easy task.and i know you are pulled in all kinds of direction and i know sometimes u make decisions because it is demand of you to make.but also on the other hand is there there some things that could of been done differently or handled better. i will condemn you for it is not my place.my great grandmother always taught me to pray for our leaders in office and that i do and will.i try to look for positive things in everyone even when it is hard to do.mr.bush i wish you all the luck in what you do after your term is up,but i just ask you think about your 8 years in office and maybe teach someone down the road some of your knowledge and maybe we can avoid another war in the future. maybe be better prepared for disasters in the future here in the us.maybe teach someone to feed the poor in our country and provide better health care for our people,and how about better education so everyone can have one regardless of race,sex, or religion as well as jobs.stop worrying about the poor in other countries while our people are going hungry and sick and can't afford neither.yes help other countries but what about america? what about our sick jobless hungry people. we can't be a great country when we are down.

thank you

meeting people on the internet

here is something i have experience as well as seen since being on the internet the last several people.i have met literally hundreds of people on here in person.now do we ever think when we meet these people in person the safety of ourselves or do they meet the expectations we might have of them?do they look like the pictures we have seen of them or do they look like we imagine they would? I have been to dallas,texas,Ohio,Alabama,mississippi,and other places to meet people in person.have i been disapointed,not at all,they was just friends and we had coffee or dinner and i usually stayed in a hotel and meet with them again the next day.and some people has come here to see me and i put them in the spare bedroom.i been fortunate,never been robbed,harmed or injured in any way.yes there is alot of people who has not been to fortunate.i am sure some people like the way it is and never meet people in person.how real are people in the Internet and are they truly sincere and are they who they say they are.i have met 1 person who was not who they said they was,bogus picture with a bogus life only because they was insecure with themself.figured people would not accept them for what they really looked like. now i am no prince charming with the best looks.i am maybe average which i am sure most people might consider not a good looking man.well my wife thinks i am good looking and to me that is all that matters.yes i like meeting people,would i do it now?well as long there is several people like there was in dallas i would.we all had the same thing in common,we was all meeting there not knowing what to expect at a nice hotel which we all booked individual rooms.we met in a common area so we would be where we feel we was safe. but with sites like friendsters,myspace,yahoo,msn,pogo,gamesville anywhere there is people do we trust them enough to meet them in person.a good question for each individual to ask themself.if you feel threaten or scared or have doubts avoid that person at all cost.not everyone is what they seem.don't jump on a airplane or in a car or train to go see someone you have not known long.use common sense and make sure you don't commit yourself to something you might regret later.better be safe than sorry.the internet can be fun as well as dangerous.use it wisely.

planting time here in the south.

well another rainy stormy day followed by a warm clear evening.really not much going on other that that.i planted some african daisy as well as some pansies.my confederate roses are starting to come out of hibernation as well as my angels trumpet.hydrangeas are starting to looking healthy as well as the butterfly bushes.another 2 weeks i should be seeing on my amaryllis some flowers.they have been growing pretty fast the last month.my wisterias are starting to wake up up as well.i am looking to getting some double flower confederate roses and some rose of sharon as well.i lost a couple of my cacti through one cold snap we had but other than that they are all looking ggod so far.i am afraid of maybe to much rain but i do have pleny of sand and rocks in with my cacti garden that it should pretty much drain rather quickly.but knowing they rather have a hot sunny day over a rainy one is quite obvious. but i will be adding more cacti in the garden and fixing it where the cold next year does not affect it as much.i have to clean it up some but it will happen as it dries back up.we do need some drier weather so i can finish up with the leaves.but my work it cut out for me.i been doing what i can inbetween raindrops.i am looking forward to having quite a few beautiful plants and flowers in my yard this year.each year i add more and more and do it different every year to not get bored with the same old same.but it been an unusual warm month for us in mississippi.not that we get really cold weather here on the gulf.well i will keep u uptodate as the days goes by hopefully no unexpected cold snap anytime soon.

Ophidiophobia-the fear of snakes

Ophidiophobia or Ophiophobia refers to the fear of snakes. Fear of snakes is sometimes called by a more general term, herpetophobia, fear of reptiles. It is one of the most common phobias, especially under the broader Zoophobia (animal phobias). Care must also be taken to differentiate people who do not like snakes or fear them for their venom or the inherent danger involved. A typical ophidiophobic would not only fear them when in live contact but also dreads to think about them or even see them on TV or in pictures-(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ophidiophobia)

ok i printed that and gave credit to where i got it from.but it gives the general ideal what i am talking about.

i myself don't understand the fear of snakes but of course i do have my fears of other things in my life which we won't get into.what draws me to this subject is 1 i love snakes.i have raised columbian red tail boas,ball pythons,corn snakes,milk snakes,and several others in my lifetime.this fear has gotten snakes outlawed in some cities,towns,states and countries.where other fears has not.my choice to keep a snake should be my choice not yours or anyone else.people has pit bulls,rottweiliers,german shepherds,part wolves,which has killed more people that snakes themself.but u don't see them outlawing dogs as a whole.i have nothing against dogs,but i feel if i let u have theses dogs why can't i have my snakes?

now people have several reasons to be afraid of snakes,needless to say venomous snake has not help people to like them.(snakes are not poisonious but venomous-there is a differences)not all snakes are venomous none of the snakes i have own were ever venomous nor had they hurt anyone other than me.but that was due to my stupidity.

i realize there is some people out there who do not need to own snakes or any pet at that.but they do and they do more harm to the animal and their statue of that animal to the public.snakes has been used to scare people and they have been used to describe satan and claim to be slimy and mean.

i have always try to educate people about my pets and letting them look at them and hold them.i have never ever use them to scare people or let anyone use them to scare people with.i have a strict code when it comes to my snakes,if u r afraid of them i will respect your fear and keep them put up.my 3 year old niece loves my snakes and i sit with her and let her hold them and play with them.but i keep an close eye out on them and her as well.she has never been bit or frightened of them.she saw them in the cage and fell in love with them
she asked to hold them-never once did i ever have them out when she came over untill she asked for them to come out.she has gotten attached to them(her mom and dad does not like them)imagine that.


from my personal poll i have taken and seen first hand-the females were less afraid of them then the males.i had about 20 grade school girls having their picture taken with the snakes and not one boy would come near the snakes.i don't understand why that is but it was.when i took them to the high school for my daughter and her friend report on snakes once again the girls loved them and the boy were still afraid.i don't understand why that was.but i was amazed at the results.

i will paste another site for you to check out and how this person did away with the myth and gave you facts.

blogs in general

now i will admit i love reading other people blogs.i love browsing not just here on google but on different sites as well.now i be the first to admit i know very little about blogging and really have no ideal about what is considered blogging.i know i type down my thought and share them.i have read numerous blogs and to many to count.i have gotten a lot of ideals from them but i don't use them for i feel i would be copying them and their style.so i try to feel my way around and figure out where i stand and what makes my blog appealing to the general public.well i don't have numerous pictures or have a subject which i am very well at doing.i could tell you about my 10 years in the army or how i became a disabled vet or maybe a daily blog about my snakes.well snakes unlike most animals do not have a very interesting life.like a dog or cat gets into a lot of things and do interesting things.where a snake pretty much stay curled up untill night time.i could talk about a lot of things but i try to find things that would be interesting to the normal person or average person.now it is hard to find everyone will like.for people in general like several different things in life.not one person is the same and that is what makes us all unique.but i will continue to read blogs and continue to enjoy reading them.maybe just maybe i will find where i belong and something will pull me in the right direction.untill then i will continue to get ideals and see how i fit in the schemes of things.any ideals out there i can use all the help i can i get. thank you

pogo addiction

i can't believe it ,i am having withdrawals from pogo,for some reason the site is down since 2130 hours and it driving me nuts.so here i sit typing wondering what to do with the rest of my evening.not really ready for bed.poppit,pop fu,pogo bowling,mahjong garden,lottso,canasta,qwerty,word whomp and many others are my fave.
i need to get a live i reckon,this shows that i have no life.but then again being disabled this keeps my mind very active.btw all thoses names of games i named are registered trademark of pogo and ea games. just covering my assets.well hopefully whatever their problem is it will be solved soon.enough of my crap for the day.


hi my name is piggy and i am a pogoholic.

hurricane season

well once again we right in the middle of another season.it has been a very wet season at that.no storms as of yet.there is some disturbance out in the water but nothing to get upset about.some people think this is a mild season,well it is still early and it will start picking up by august.usually from august untill november is it the heavest for storms.every once in a while we get them early but seldom.another fourth of july has come and now about over.just to wet to do anything today.not only that i have been sick.2 weeks now.so have not been in the mood for anything.but i will try to continue to write here and try to get caught up.

drama on the internet

You know i enjoy going in game rooms to play games.pogo.com is one of my favorites.it just the drama is really ridiculous and people carrying on like someone really cares.yes i know go to another room and guess what it is there as well.now i know i can mute everyone and that solves the problem.but i like to meet people and make friends.so this leaves me stuck in the middle.i refuse to chose sides and i refuse to allow someone to chose my friends.now saying that,what do they argue about-well in one room its the regulars against the people who are in leagues.me i am not in a league but i do like some of the people who are in it.the regulars i like some of them as well.so what do u do change rooms and start over?well i thought of that and i have been in some of thoses rooms.either they won't talk to you because now you are the new person in that room and they won't talk to you.or you go to some rooms and people just don't talk-borrrrrringggggggggggggggggg.i like to talk and carry a conversation.i realize some people need to concentrate on some of theses games so chatting is difficult and some games are timed so that cuts out the chatter.i respect that and their game.but i can't respect people who wants to drag drama into theses rooms.people complain because people are nosy-well stop putting your buiness in the room and we won't know your buisness.also if u can't stand someone why come into the same room they are in and start fighting.why not go into another room untill they leave or just mute them.get over it people this is just the internet.some things are important and some things are just stupid

K.I.S.S. = keep it simple stupid.

my boring blogs continue on

you know when i first came here to blog and never understood why nobody read my blogs,well i figured something out-because they were very boringggggggggggggg.well tough-what else can i do-this is my journal with my thoughts and i like some of my blogs.this will be sweet and short tonight.if you read my blogs well thank you and if you don't read my blogs thank you as well.i realize this is more for me than anyone else-i am learning.thank you for the lesson

GOD BLESS Y'ALL

just idle thoughts

Well as spring starts to begin i look over my yard and like what i see.
i put down some triple 8 and ammonium nitrate.did all the edging around the house
planted some monkey grass(aztec grass)or whatever you want to call it.
i been making alot of yard improvements as i go.made my own trelis so i can run my pelican vines.and doing alot of fixings here and there and weeding.other than that most of my major projects are almost finish.most things has come back except for my hisbiscus bushes.all well.put something else in their place.got rid of the green elephants ears last year.but kept the black ones.planted 2 century plants and i take the babies from them and use them for trade at the local nursey.we exchange cuttings with one another.and sometimes if they have a plant i really want we barter.lol
they really good people at frasiers.

they remember my name but i can't remember theirs.i am really bad with names.
well thats all the news here.

later y'all

north korea

you know of course north korea is always in the news whether we like it or not.them testing nuclear bomb should be no surprise.and of course we have pretty much ignore them and we they do say something its always something stupid.

first of all let me say this,if you have never been stationed in south korea up by the dmz wondering if the alert is just a test or are we actually under attack.I spend a year there at camp hovey while stationed in the army.some of us actually spend some time at the dmz looking across at the north koreans who hated us.

when the sirens would go off we grabbed our gear and was off we went,wether it was hot or raining or snowing and cold.not knowing if we was going to be killing or just sitting there freezing our butts off or sweating bullet.

we have been threaten and threaten by the north Koreans since the Korean war was
put at a temporary halt.the war was not won by neither side.they can go back to war at any given time without any warning.a temporary cease fire is all.all it would take is a single gunshot to start it all. or a nuclear bomb.north korea has and will always be a threat to us and our fellow soldiers.and civilians of south korea and the soldiers dependents as well.the countdown as begun just be prepared for the worse.

assassination of politics.

have you been reading or watching or listening to the news of late.one thing i have noticed is that party leaders do not agree with one another.sure i knew this all along.but it seems it has just got worse.

so no one misinterprets the title and you just glances over it-it says the assassination of politics,not politicians. politics as a whole needs to be done away with.or at least the different parties-why do we need democrats,republicans,left wing,right wing,socialist,communism,neutral,and all theses other names that seem to come along.something new every year.

I realize we are a free country and we have fought for this freedom and we have the right to basically do what we want as long as it does not break the law.(of course even the criminals has rights.)people always use the excuse of well that is what my party stands for it has from the beginning and will to the end.

sorry to bust your bubble-but when it all started it was nothing like it is today.
it has just got worse and it got to be about the money and the title you got with it.

forget about doing the job you was elected to do,spend your check,go to big parties and find ways to get your name in the press wether it is good or bad,

as for the killing of presidents,senators,congressman to me it is pure stupid and idiotic.not one one theses people have any power.the president is a figurehead,sorry mr.bush but it is all true. you have to relie on the house and the senators and the congressman.gee you don't even write your own speeches. to me its not worth the trouble,look over history,lincoln,kennedy,and the others who was just shot and lived.what did it actually change.the world went on and their ideals continue.all you did was shot a man,not his politics,not his ideals not his dreams.it did not alter history in either way.that is why you need to assassinate politics.kill the politics and we just might have a chance.of course that will take along of doing,paperwork,meetings agreements,disagreements,but in the long run no gets hurt or shot.mr.bush or any other president to me is not worth the effort since nothing comes of it accept for death sentences and jail.but the the assasssination of politics-would mean change and hopefully change for the good.

my new baby snake

this has been a very busy week-I just purchased a new snake.I will bring him home on saturday,he is a columbian red boa and is 6 months old.I bought all the set up and looking forward to having a new member of the family.I miss my other snakes and sad that they are gone,but we must go on.some people don't understand my attachment to theses wonderful creatures.some people don't think you can bond with a snake.sure I can't teach it to fetch a stick or cuddle with it on the couch.I can't take it on walks(well i can I just be the one doing all the walking.)

but there is a bonding which only other reptile lovers understand.sure its not the same way you bond with a cat or dog or even a ferret.but its something we do and that we love and no one else seem to understand.

I see people all the time trying to prohibit us from owning snakes,and I read where some cities have succeeded.I don't try to tell you to get rid of your pitbulls or rottweilers or other animals that people have.I can guarantee if I can't have my snakes i will be damn if I will let you keep your precious little dogs.so you keep out of my buisness and I will keep out of yours.let me have my snakes and you can have your pitbulls and your rottweilers,bulldogs and wolves.I will look the other way when you let them loose to roam our neighborhoods and promise I won't call the dog pound(since we do have a leash law) and have them impounded and put to sleep. you just let me have my snakes AND WE WILL GET ALONG JUST FINE.

pambansang awit ng pilipinas

bayang magiliw

perlas ng silanganan

alab ng puso

sa dibdib mo'y buhay



lupang hinirang

duyan ka ng magiting

sa manlulupig

di ka pasisiil



sa dagat at bundok

sa simoy at sa langit mong bughaw

may dilag ang tula at awit

sa paglayang minamahal



ang kislap ng watawat mo'y

tagumpay na nagniningning

ang bituin at araw niya'y

kailan pa ma'y di magdidilim



lupa nang araw ng luwalhati't pagsinta

buhay ay langit sa piling mo

aming ligaya na pag may mang-aapi

ang mamatay nang dahil sa iyo

A backwards glance

been reflecting the last 12 months.I think about the destructions,the nightmares,the water that flooded our homes,the lost of lives,the looting and the way people can change overnight.their true nature really comes out.you all thinking it is good ,sorry to disappoint you but i have never seen so many inconsiderate people in my live at one time.that includes people who you thought was your friends and family members. the looting was out of this world,it was bad enough that we had to deal with the destruction and trying to salvage what was left if anything at all,then people going through others homes or what was left of their homes and just helping yourself.people came down here with the false pretense of helping us and instead robbing us blind and taking what they considered souvenirs.I am sorry but stealing is stealing and you all know who you are should all be hanged in the town square,oops forgot we don't have one anymore,what was left people stoled,well we just beat them with our shovels and stomp their f--king head in.yes the nightmares continues and just won't go away.I don't want your pity,I just want you to keep your filthy hands off what belongs to others.everytime a hurricane comes into the gulf of mexico the nightmares begin again.maybe one day they will go away,but untill than i suffer in silences and wait it out.
