Why are the Muppets brilliant? This is why:

You have got to love The Muppets. They took a song completely unrelated to Easter and made it an Easter classic. Never again will Easter go by that I will not think of this song and the Muppet video.

He Is Risen. Happy Easter.

Well, see ya’ later!

A terrible accident has accrued in DeLand last night. By all accounts, it was aweful.

The reason I bring this up, is that I went to high school in DeLand and consider it my home town. I also have family living there. As far as I know, no one I know was hurt. Still, my heart goes out to those hurt and the entire community.

I also feel bad for Publix and the employees that work there. They fought againt the Super Walmart that went up near them, but they have been able to thrive neverless, a testament to both manament and the employees who work there. Now the buliding may be severaly damnaged. People may lose their jobs altogether. The small businesses in the complex may be hurt as well. It will be rough times ahead for them too.

So please pray for the victims of the crash and everyone who works for supermarket and center:

“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33 (KJV)

Last night, this happen to me (NSFW):

Except no Alien came out of my chest, but that is what it felt like. In fact, that is what I will describe it from now on (I have a hard time describing it up to this point): Like the Alien Chestbuster trying to drill its way through your chest.

While it was intense and it hurt a lot, the pain was thankfully over as soon as it began. Which is lucky enough for me, because I did not want to go to the hospital again. I will be thankful when I finally get this gallbladder removed.

Well, see ya’ later!

I love April Fools Day. The trick is, get them in the morning right as they get up. People are half asleep and don’t know what is going on. Target people’s weaknesses and do not let them interfere when you are punking them. Good times.

Today is also my nephew’s Birthday. He is turning 9 today. One more year and he turns the big One Zero. Later today, we are going to Pizza Hut and stuff ourselves with pizza. It should be fun.

Also, because of Blake, I now have this song stuck in my head. I think it’s better than the song they are parodying. And I don’t even play Minecraft (nor do I have the desire to play the game). God, I love the brat.

Well, see ya’ later!

Well, that was a pleasant surprise.

Labor Ready here in Clermont, FL called me up out of the blue and offered me a job yesterday. It seemed like Crothall needed some people and I headed right over there. I missed the first two and half hours of the shift, but I take those hours over ZERO hours any day of the week. Nice thing about working through Labor Ready, I can go collect the money I earned as soon as I get off the computer.

Since this was done through Labor Ready, I am not holding my breath for further future work. So this changes nothing for me. However I will be more to do more work if they will have me and if I am not already doing something.

Well, see ya’ later!

Finally, a game for us capitalists: Corporation Inc

It’s not the only game out there for us capitalists. However this is like SimCity but for a business. You have to hire employees, managers, and everything else inbetween. The object of course, is the make money. It is also very open-ended. You can go away and come back to it whenever you want. Slightly unrealistic because it doesn’t have a “government holding you back” element, however this is a flashgame and they can only put so much on the upload (I would only count that against a console or full computer game).

My only real complaint is that the controls are not very good. Moving around sucks, so hiring and moving people to another office can get annoying when you can’t move as fast as you want. Other than that, I completely enjoy the game.

I recommend it for any person who would love to start their own “push-button” business. Enjoy.

Well, see ya’ later!

You know, I was trying to find the right words all day in tribute to Andrew Breitbart. About five minutes ago I found them:

Thank you. I didn’t know you personally, so I guess this all I can say. I only wish we had more time so I could have thank you in person. Maybe we meet you in the next life.

Thank you for being such a great family man. Too many fathers and husbands out there who are not being the man of their family. It takes more than a paycheck to be the man of the house. It takes commitment and from what I heard, you were there almost every step of the way.

Thank you for being such a great business man. You showed us how to build a successful business online. You also brought much of the right blogosphere into the internet age. Well done.

Thank you for being such a great conservative patriot and warrior. As a fellow activist, you are my hero. We all ask ourselves when will we find the the next Ronald Reagan and you were him, we just didn’t realized it.

Well, see ya’ later!

“I love the smell of napalm in the morning.”

I’m burning up, literally. I have this wicked sunburn right now. I went to GeorgeFest in Eustis, FL yesterday to get signatures on my candidate petition and I’m now red all over my head. It’s not as bad as one might think, but I can sure feel it. I will, hopefully, be feeling better by tomorrow.

However it was a very successful day getting signatures. I got 193 signatures. That is my biggest one-day haul to date. I will take those other signatures I got through the month and turn them in on Tuesday, which should be well over 350 signatures.

Well, see ya’ later!

I just finished Atlas Shrugged a couple of days ago and my head is still spinning. And I have to say, don’t listen to the critics. It is a great read. I am not going to give an in depth analysis of the book or it’s plot, but I do have a few things to say about it:

Once around the age of 20, I picked up this book and was bored though the first chapter and stopped. I pick it up now and I couldn’t put it down. Now I can hear nothing but the antagonists from some politicians and it scares me that we are too late.

Someone said to me the other day: “I think part of the attraction is that it’s basically one train wreck after another, metaphorically and literally.”

Maybe, but I also think I had to grow into the book. Atlas Shrugged is not for intellectual lightweights or immature people. I’m not trying to be insulting, because I had to grow ten years before I could fully appreciate this book myself.

I most connect with the characters of Eddie Willers and Jeff Allen. I would assume most people do, since both were written as the “everyday man” for the book. I’m not an inventor like John Galt nor will I ever reach the level of success of Hank Rearden, but I do think that I can make something of myself one day. However I do break with Eddie Willers in not joining the men in wagons in the desert at the end of the book. You have to know your limits and when to walk away.

There is hardly much I disagree with the book’s philosophy, except on the idea of giving and Ayn Rand’s ideas on religion (which goes hand in hand). I think that if you are giving of yourself freely for some cause you believe in with the understanding that you can stop giving to said cause and to believe in something greater than yourself (without devaluing yourself), that is free will. If a government forces you to do something beyond your moral code, then that is slavery. Having your money (a representation of your value and work) taken forcibly through taxes to give to another (wealth redistribution), is also slavery.

Again, I think it was a satisfying read. I think everyone should try to read it at least once. They should find a enjoyable read.

I finally got word from DragonGate. If anything, I can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that she’s alive. I was honestly worried she got hurt there in Italy or on her way there. I’m just thankful she’s back in my life.

You know, I just finished up Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand and one of the things about love in that book is that it should be earned. I agree. She has earned my love to her, but I have yet to earn her love.

And that’s ok. I need to do her right in life and that means being able to stand on my two feet. I want her to be proud of me, like I am proud of her. Once that happens, I can really love her the way I should be able too: Looking right at her, instead of up at her (metaphorically, of course).

Anyway, I am thinking of writing a short review of Atlas Shrugged. It is really a great book and want to get down my thoughts.

Well, see ya’ later!
