If you're a reader of this blog, you obviously haven't been over the last month because I haven't posted anything. Oops, sorry about that. I've been very busy with a new job, but more on that later. First off, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Or, if you don't celebrate Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, or one of my favorites, Happy Festivus. (Saw Jerry Seinfeld in person recently). So, did anyone notice that the DOW topped 11,000 recently? Most of the mainstream media ingnored it. Why? Because it shows the economy isn't that bad off and is getting better and that makes the Bush administration look good. Oh, and I love SCOTUS confirmation hearings. Geez dems, you made Alito's wife cry! Anyway, the hearings are over so let's just go ahead and have the vote and get him in there. I know he will win by a slim margin (I guess 59-41). What else is on my mind these days.....plenty! Just as the new year started, we Las Vegans got our tax dollar value. Now, if you're a lib reading this, prepare to be pissed off. In early January on the same day in two separate incidents, Metro Officers shot and killed two armed men. One was wanted in New Mexico for MURDER and pulled a handgun from his waistband while being confronted by police..pop pop pop. The other was apparently a stalker who AMBUSHED officers with a handgun and was shot dead by officers. A Metro officer was shot in the wrist or hand on one of these shooting (sorry, I don't remember which) but I didn't hear any more about him so he must be OK. Good job guys. Yea, if you haven't figured it out, I'm a big supporter of law enforcement. Hmmm...what else....oh yea Iran. WTF? It will soon be time to deal with Iran using FORCE. Today they said they will block any atomic inspections, but that they are attempting to use nuclear means for energy only. Does anyone out there actually believe that? I've been thinking about Ariel Sharon recently, and the fact that he is certainly done, even if he recovers. Too bad, because he was the best bet for peace between the Jews and Palestinians.
Now, onto other things. I've been thinking about women alot lately, and not just sexually, though that occupies my mind often. Women with marriage agendas, you are almost certainly doomed with failure (divorce) if you only think of such. Here's what I'm talking about. Ladies, let's say you get into your mid twenties, or maybe you're around thirty, and you're watching or have watched many of your friends get married and some even have children. You're thinking, "when is my turn?". So when you meet a man, that's all you think about. Now, the women around you don't help much, because most of you are alike so you hear things all the time like "why are you still single?" Here is my point, and I'm speaking from experience. If you're in a big hurry to get married, one of two things will happen. One, you will ruin the relationship and you will not marry that man. Two, the guy will marry you and the marriage will suck and be hell for both you, will end in divorce, or will endure infidelity. Ladies that fall into the category I'm talking about, just slow down and ease up. If your boyfriend tells you that he loves you for the first time and the next night you're telling him that you need to be married soon, you're fucking up. Let me pose this question to you. What's the problem with waiting two years to be married? Why do you push to get married in 6-12 months? Now, don't get me wrong. If you've dated a guy you want to marry for five or six years, that's a little excessive. I believe two, even three years is NOT excessive. Too bad there's so many women out there who fall into the category I've just described. If you fall in love and the two of you decide to get married, then so be it. If just YOU decide to get married, you're doomed to failure. To those ladies who don't have a marriage agenda, you're set, nature will take it's course and you'll meet a great guy and marriage will be the next step to BOTH of you after you fall in love and spend time together. I was going to tell you about my new job, but I think I'll save that for another time. Laterz......
