The UN wants us disarmed and defenseless

How many of you out there watch the tv show "Top Shot"? I am a fan of the show and I'm glad that it's a big hit. Top Shot pits 16 contestants against each other, with one being eliminated on each contest. The contestants have to make some very hard shots, and it is often is the underdog who wins. One reason I like the show is that it shows guns being used for fun and achievement, which is much unlike what the anti gun nuts make them out to be. I love guns and I am a strong advocate of the NRA. Our freedom is based on our ability to defend ourselves. Our government wants us to believe that we should give up our guns and depend on crooked officials for our safety. This is the same government that has put our country into the mess that we are in right now. They can't protect our country from themselves, much less violent criminals. There is no way that I will turn over my only means of defending myself and my family, and let that bunch of idiots decide my future.

A recent newsletter that I received from the NRA stated that the UN thinks that we Americans should be disarmed so we will be just like every other country in the world; defenseless, and at the mercy of crooked politicians, and the rich companies who buy them. My question is this; "What the heck does the UN care if we American citizens are armed or not"? Not that I really care what they think, but it's enough to make a person wonder just what their future intentions are. I urge all of you out there to buy guns and ammunition for them. If you are one of the ones that think that more gun laws or taking guns from honest citizens will solve our crime problems, let me tell you the real story. Have you been watching the news lately and noticed the riots, assaults, looting, and arson that is going on in London and other UK cities? For your information the UK has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the world. It started in 1996 when a deranged man walked into a Dunblane Scotland school and killed 16 kids and one teacher. The government officials decided that taking away all handguns from the citizens was the answer and they did. Unsurprisingly the crime rate soared, and is getting worse by the day. Why? Because criminals have nothing to fear. A gang can break into a house, rob, assault, rape, and pillage, and what is the man of the house going to do about it? He can't fight off a mob with a baseball bat. The same story is true for every city or country in the world that has taken away people's only means of protection. I am not giving up my guns and I hope you won't either. Guns are tools. They can be used for fun, for putting meat on the table, or for shooting the mad rapist that is coming through your window tonight intending to rape and kill your daughter and wife.

Get your piece of paradise, while there is still time

Where better to retire than Hawaii? It's a virtual paradise on earth and it's a place that most of us dream of visiting someday. How much better it would be to live there and enjoy the beauty and culture every day after we retire.

Hawaii reminds me somewhat of the Philippines, which is where my wife is from. The tropics are so beautiful, and the sea is relaxing and adventuresome. I hope we can visit Hawaii someday for a vacation, or maybe to live. There is still some Hawaii real estate for sale that would be a great investment for discerning buyers.

I find the terrain of Hawaii very interesting. When you get away from the beach you can find some of the most beautiful mountains and waterfalls in the world. The food and culture are something that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime. Don't forget Hawaii when you are considering buying a retirement or vacation property. It's time to get your piece of paradise!

Joining a wine club will give you better wines, at lower prices

What really sets off a meal is a good bottle of wine. It is romantic and it also sets your palate to better appreciate your food. Canadians often have problems obtaining certain wines, because there are so many restrictions about bringing wines into the provinces of Canada. Probably the best way to get the high quality wine you crave is to join a good wine club. That will enable you to get better quality wine, at much cheaper prices, and the wine can be delivered right to your door. The wine club sends out representatives to wineries to sample and taste test the wines. The representatives are all hand picked experts that know what is quality and what is not. That assures the wine club customers of getting the most desired and unique wines. If you decide to join a wine club, pick the membership level that is best for you and your tastes; then sit back and get ready to enjoy the wine!

New car and vacation time

We were on vacation last week. We went to a zoo and then to Branson Missouri. Unfortunately our truck, which we just had some repair work done on a few weeks back, failed us in the market parking lot of a town pretty far from where we live. We had been discussing buying a new car but had decided to wait until next year. After sitting out in the heat for about an hour waiting for help to arrive we changed our mind and went to a car dealership that very evening and bought a new car. It’s a Hyundai Elantra and in addition to being a very pretty car, it also gets terrific gas mileage; up to 40 MPG. Considering that it’s a midsized car, we think that’s pretty good. We had to have our old truck towed and repaired again. Come to find out, it was the fault of some local mechanics that did our repairs a month ago. They left some electrical wires laying on the exhaust manifold and they melted and shorted out. The repairmen are our neighbors and good people so I guess we will not make them pay for it, but its aggravating to say the least. That was the first time in many years that I have taken a car to be repaired, instead of doing it myself, and it may be the last time for awhile. If you want something done right, do it yourself. Anyway we now have a new car and a new payment to make lol, but we both like the car a lot and agreed that we are glad we got it.

MTV is awesome

Guest post written by my buddy Bernardo Graham

I know I'm a little too old to watch so much MTV, but I really just can't get enough of the network. There are so many great reality TV shows on the channel like True Life, the Real World, and all the others I can't think of off the top of my head. Since I got TV from Cleartvbundle.com not that long ago I have been watching more and more TV than ever, but my dial is pretty much always tuned to something MTV related. For example, that new show Teen Mom? I can't get enough of it! I know it's kind of trashy, but I really enjoy seeing how other people live, and it makes me feel better since I'm out of my precarious teen years and seem to have succeeded. I probably should find a hobby that's more worthwhile, but watching MTV doesn't seem like the worst thing I could be doing with my time. It's certainly not music television anymore, but I like it much better in the current format then before!

Cowardly murderer Bin laden is finally where he belongs

Yesterday I heard some DJ’s on the radio talking about how although it probably isn’t a Christian attitude, they can’t help but be happy that Osama Bin Laden is dead. I agree with them. That is one less cowardly murderer that the world has to deal with. From what I read on a news site he was a jerk to the end; even using his wife as a shield to try to keep the bullets away from his worthless body. It didn’t work however; our Seals shot him twice in the head and once in the chest, just to make sure. I think their reasoning was that you can’t kill a snake too many times.

A bunch of Muslim Bin Laden lovers started a page on Facebook that said they were all Bin Laden, I guess trying to infer that they were all joined as one for the cause of killing innocent people. Facebook, to their credit, took their page right off the net. I applaud Facebook for their action. I just wish the Secret Service would look up every idiot that contributed to that page and if they are in this country, out they go, no questions asked, no more politically correct, no more BS.

Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein were both nothing but cowardly bullies that used others to do their dirty work, or made sure that they had plenty of backup so they could torture and kill without risk to themselves. At least Hussein met his end with courage. I watched the video of his hanging and he faced it like a man, unlike Bin Laden who tried to use his wife as a shield. What a worthless waste of oxygen he was. Our world is much better off without him. Unfortunately there will probably be a massive fish die off from eating his poison carcass after it was buried at sea. These Muslim terrorist nuts have been convinced that if they die for the cause they will get 40 virgins in the afterlife. What they haven’t been told is that all 40 are camels. Real women wouldn’t touch them(perhaps for fear that they might be used as shields). It is amazing how a man can achieve the hate and disgust of the entire world in 54 years, but its even more amazing that there are fools out there who believed in him. Bin Laden, I echo the words of our ex governor when I say, “welcome to hell”. You put others through enough of it, now its your turn. You have all eternity to enjoy it. Doubt if you will be allowed any virgins to use as shields…
