2 Quick Updates.
I’m get to wear a tie, when I wear a suit.
I’m adding some Swiss to my sammich.
It could all start today.
Good Morning & Happy Wednesday,
My life could change today & it all starts (officially) with a meeting. I’ve already had a few unofficial conversation with a Manager & Director.
Today is Wednesday 01/04/V3.2.
Wednesday is getting to be my favorite day, because its like a brand new week. I get to see you, so it’s kinda like Monday, which is my 2nd favorite day of the week. IT’S MY BLOG, I just had to say that.
I will be in the officer & I look really good when I wear a suit. (I’ll Be Right Back) IF I do decide to wear a suit, I won’t have to iron. I ironed a shirt yesterday & you dry clean suits. So that’s a win-win for me.
The word of the day is fetial which is concerned with declarations of war and treaties of peace. I hope that Commander in-Chief’s will focus on the last portion of fetial.
It’s been a good morning so far, I wake up to a text(twitter posting) from Maggie saying she would send me a post card. I still love her. (in a NON-Romantic way). I really like post cards & other stuff.
What else can this entry be about?
Apparently it is National Spaghetti Day, I don’t know if I’ll be having spaghetti for dinner. But I will be having a Roast Turkey & Colby Sammich on wheat for lunch.
Have a Terrific Wednesday.
If you use foursquare, there will be 3 days here this week points.
Why I Choose Perry
This is posted at 21.36 VST & Fox News is saying Perry has a solid grip on 6th place.
I did my job & made the announcement to my friend NMA 08.06 so it wasn’t a secret. I texted her & I’m sure that they are reading my texts. I would.
There are many choices to do your research. I used a certain paper’s 2012 Republican presidential candidate bios. See here’s the link, so you can judge for yourself.
- I’m not happy that the youngest person is 53. There are great strong candidates that are under 50, that were great candidates & Presidents. 9 Presidents under 50. I indicate this because we need leaders of our future & not of our present or past. IF Barack Obama is given the chance he will be about 51 when he is inaugurated.
- My view on the international relations is that we need the UN to take a lead on ALL multi-nation conflicts. The pre-amble to the UN Charter explains it well. So bring our troops home & protect America. Thank You.
- I don’t think any President, Candidate, Senator, or Representative should every say taxes are off the table. All the listed candidates lost points for this.
- I agree with a flat tax & it shouldn’t be a choice. I think it should be somewhere between 15% & 20% as a National Sales Tax. I wrote a speech for my class about it.
You can view it here. I can’t find the video, but I did it. Rick Perry edged the crowd on this aspect - Healthcare Needs to be reformed, the bill that passed was too much at one time.
- Immigration needs to be controlled. I’m not against a fence that will shock the waste out of people trying to get into our country illegally.
Based on the current crop of candidates I would vote for Rick Perry.
I got Ice Cream
It wasn’t a good day setting today.
But I got some Ice Cream in the fridge.
Quotes from the World for Tuesday 01/03/MMXII
Confess to the misdeeds you cannot hide.
Mason Cooley
Mason Cooley (b. 1927), U.S. aphorist. City Aphorisms, Ninth Selection, New York (1992).
Change of Plans
See I told you I didn’t know what was happening.
I’ve already got a change of plans, outside of my control. Its an okay thing, nothing bad AT ALL!
But this change of plans, has already made my day better.
There is currently a meat loaf in the oven, that I shall be enjoying for dinner. I also get to sit on the couch & do another entry.
I’m also having smashed potatoes with my meat loaf, I need to get salid though.

Thank You, Life.
Good Morning & Happy Tuesday.
Steven Weber’s son said Thank you, Life!. He is eight years old. I’m just as happy as Mr. Weber. I love life to the fullest & proud to be here.
Today is Tuesday 01/03/V3.2.
I don’t know what today has in store for me, but I can tell you that I’ll be ready when it comes at me. Let’s do this.
The word of the day is solecism which is a breach of good manners or etiquette.
Have a FANTASTIC DAY!
As you go though the day. Keep in mind that is Julie’s Birthday today.
