TAGGED

Mandy has tagged me so I am to post my 3rd picture in my 3rd folder in my Pictues directory.. So here from my camera phone collection is.. a blurry picture of my speedometer going fast on cruise control!




I Tag... Kaylee and Jennica..

What did you just call me??

If you know me, it won't be a revelation if I tell you that I've been involved in a pretty good number of political debates.. If you had seen any of those debates you would also know that most of those debates involve the other guy calling me some offensive name... I've become so used to it that I can time the point at which they'll use it.. It's almost a game.. In the past there have been times where I would give in and throw an insult back.. I've realized where it stems from..

People call names simply because they are unable to analyze their concerns or objections and out of frustration will result to personal offense.. Name calling is a blatant sign of a low analytical capacity and further indicates that you are probably wasting your time in that argument!

So, if you can't say anything nice.. Think about it and at least say something worth consideration... Please?!

Drive safe..

After another strange run-in with the police, I thought it might be an interesting post.. Driving home last Thursday night I saw the familiar blue and red strobes flashing behind me in my rear view mirror. I knew I had been pushing my luck long enough with my registration and knew it was a matter of time before my car was towed and impounded.. Being on the merge point of I-80/I-15 I pulled over as far as possible to keep my civil servant from walking in the same lane as 80mph traffic.. Rolling my window down the conversation goes something like this..

Officer: What are you doing rolling around in a car with tags that expired 10 months ago?
Me: It didn't pass safety.
Officer: You know that car is coming with us right? You know its getting towed tonight..
Me: Yea, I figured it was about that time.. How do I get my car back?
Officer: You pay the tow fee, the impound fee.. you pay to get it registered and you pay the fine.. you're looking at about $800
Me: Ok..
Officer: All that because you didn't want to register your car...
Me: I tried.. I have my emissions certificate right here. The state would not pass safety because the highbeam glass is cracked.. The headlights work fine and this car is safe..
Officer: Look.. (mumbles what sounds like 'drive safe')

The officer walks back to his truck leaving me confused.. Did he say drive safe? Is he letting me go? Or just going to call the tow truck? I'm confused until I see the red and blue strobes extinguish.. Traffic clears and the officers car calmly drives away.. Lucky? Who knows..

Roarks Speech

One of my favorite parts of a book made in to film :)

One Question - Will I Choose To Be Free?

Below is a video that asks a question that is not often, if ever, considered by most of us. The question is, will I choose to be free? Each and every time I consider that question, I realize the power I have over my own existence. I realize that I get to decide (less force and deception) what my life will be! So many times we answer the question in the negative, excusing away responsibilities and challenges so with ease we can take an easier way and conform to what society demands us to be.

Part 2

I will purchase a BMW because of thinking like this.

The announcement of Spitzers resignation literally drew cheers from Wall Street today. To them, it felt like due justice as their sanctimonious governor fell from the position they say he bullied and steamrolled himself into...
Is it always wrong to feel joy from another's demise? Or, is savoring justice simply an automatic reaction when somebody 'gets what's coming to him'
As many of you know, I'm not a big supporter of bureaucracy. In fact, I consider it in most cases to be a hindrance to productivity and prosperity. This said, I would be lying to you if I told you I didn't feel a slight bit of guilty pleasure in seeing this true blue Kommissar fall under his own corruption.

It takes guts....

Surf Life

I pulled out an old surf video I had forgotten existed in my collection and watched it last night. Watching the pros carve up and down perfectly breaking waves brought back strong memories of Daytona and the old days of 'Surf Life' Although I'm grateful to be in Salt Lake building businesses and achieving goals, I can't help but miss the simple pleasures of life on the coast. Among my goals, one is to adopt some of that easy-going attitude keeping stress to a minimum
