Continued from Friday

       She did it!!!! My wife got a fairly large tattoo on her back,just about on her waist,really low-down. It is a large rose in the center,and vines and leaves spreading outwards,left and right. With some thorns, of course! (Every Rose has it's thorns)---if you are old enough,you will know the reference.

        My poor little mouse is dying today!! Wife couldn't get it to "wake up" when she turned the pc on. I came to take a look, and got him/her to work some. It still gives up every few minutes, and needs to be "smacked around", but it is done with love!!(yeah, right)

         I feel like writing today, so just bear with me!! I think it is from not smoking...which I have not been doing for over eight months now!! I originally started this journal as a testament to not smoking. It just didn't turn out that way! Who wants to read everyday..."I am not smoking today"? Now, that wouldn't get too many readers, would it?

        I have been addicted to drugs, and alcohol when I was younger. I seem to have the wrong personality. Even when my doctor offers pain meds, I refuse them. I KNOW how easy it is to become addicted to things. I finally got some pain pills this past week....that is the first time in over three years, so I should be ok. I have taken only two of them, and let my wife hide them. I don't need to replace one bad habit with another!

           Here is something I have been thinking about lately. I see ads on tv to keep kids off of drugs...everyone does...even the kids. Funny thing, right after I see those ads, I see ads for drugs for grown-ups! These new drugs promise everything. From helping you to "cope" with everyday stress, to turning you into a sexual tyranosauras rex!! Then you have the beer and wine ads. It never ends! "They" stopped the advertising of tobacco products in 1968. But you can still advertise alcohol. I have never heard of someone smoking a cigarette, then driving into a family of four and killing them!!

        What kind of message are we sending to our kids? You can't drink or do drugs untill you have kids of your own....that way you won't have to deal with them! I think it is funny that what was considered "bad" when I was a kid, most folks just look over now a days. I saw a kid who was every bit of nine years old throwing a fit in a store. The whole deal....screaming,crying, begging, hitting his mom....all of it. She was obviously not from around here, because she just "put up" with it. Kind of made me want to go over to her and say "if you won't smack that kid, I will do it for you". No way have either one of my daughters acted like that in public! I will leave a store QUICKLY, and take them to the car! And, yes, they get their little butt spanked!

         Sound cruel to you? Bite me! My girls know enough to respect all people. They say things like M'aam,Sir,please, and thank you! They never mistreat people working in stores, restaraunts, gas stations, wherever they happen to be. They don't look, and point and laugh at people's misfortune...they offer to help. I have seen some of the children that are being raised these days.....we need to get rid of a bunch of them, and start over! That's wrong...we need to beat the shit out of some of these "parents", then the kids would be better....or better off!

         It's strange...you MUST posess a license to drive a vehicle. You MUST demonstrate a WORKING knowledge of said vehicle, and of the rules of traffic laws. You are even made to take a written, and a driving test. Only AFTER you have proven yourself, are you allowed the PRIVILEGE of driving on our streets and roads!  But ANY dumb-ass can have children. I still haven't figured that one out!!

                                            Holla' If You Hear Me!!!
