Well of Course, I was blaming Comrade Obama for it BEFORE it started, this turd is just slow. Probably has not had the chance to murder a woman or child this week and is feeling a bit “off”. Poor little coward.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio
You all remember Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona , who painted the jail cells pink and made the inmates wear pink prison garb. Well………
SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!
Oh, there’s MUCH more to know about Sheriff Joe!
Maricopa County was spending approx. $18 million dollars a year on stray animals, like cats and dogs. Sheriff Joe offered to take the department over, and the County Supervisors said okay.
The animal shelters are now all staffed and operated by prisoners. They feed and care for the strays. Every animal in his care is taken out and walked twice daily. He now has prisoners who are experts in animal nutrition and behavior. They give great classes for anyone who’d like to adopt an animal. He has literally taken stray dogs off the street, given them to the care of prisoners, and had them place in dog shows.
The best part? His budget for the entire department is now under $3 million. Teresa and I adopted a Weimaraner from a Maricopa County shelter two years ago. He was neutered, and current on all shots, in great health, and even had a microchip inserted the day we got him. Cost us $78.
The prisoners get the benefit of about $0.28 an hour for working, but most would work for free, just to be out of their cells for the day. Most of his budget is for utilities, building maintenance, etc. He pays the prisoners out of the fees collected for adopted animals.
This might even help you grow up some. Its A guide to help you form New Year’s resolutions.
(ya fucked up last year, anything could help)
No I didn’t write this, I’m not this subtle. My suggestions revolve around you probably being a lost cause and suggesting that if you REALLY want to save the world, start with the gene pool…
Over at Conserative Oasis. A site added to my blogroll here as well, good reading!
Its been years since I moved a mess like this. And I’ll do it without my second set of eyes on the truck.
First Load of the New Year.
This is a furniture factory, well a small piece of one. Its old, outdated and messy. It’s headed for its new home in Mexico. I’ll drop it in our yard in Laredo TX, pull my chains, straps, duct tape, twine, rope, best wishes, zip ties, super glue and everything else I have used to hold this crap on. A Mexican driver will come up and take it into Mexico. I’ll be glad to be rid of it.
With some luck, there is a dozer blade still sitting there that needs to come out to AZ. That will give me the chance to pick up Helen and we can get back to work. More likely, I’ll start moving oversized frame work to Garyville LA. for the Marathon refinery there.
Stay tuned for trucking adventures and of course my normal attacks on liberal and other terrorists.

So here we are, a new year, seems a whole lot like the next day to me.
Well, I for one am glad. GOOD BYE to 2008, GOOD RIDDANCE. 2008 was a near total disaster for me, not that a lot went wrong, just not a lot went right.
Oh I managed to almost keep my head above water, thought I was gonna win there for a few months. Then that group of criminals in congress, along with the idiots on wall street, turned a very busy, profitable job, into a struggle for survival.
Then of course there was the National disaster of Nov 4th, when Barack the empty suit somehow won the presidential race over an American Hero.
Never underestimate stupid people in large groups.
The anger is gone now, replaced by amusement. As I predicted, the mighty “O” is not even in office and his past is here to haunt him.
Lets call this my last blog of 2008, just for the hell of it (posted after 2am the 1st).
We just got home from the last party, I have a load sitting in front of the house ready to move out with Fri. Helen will be staying home for a few weeks until I can get back here to pick her up. There are some medical tests needing run. (some quack Doctor has an upcoming ballon payment on his house or BMW or something) I’ll miss not having her on the truck.
Let’s face the next year with resolve and purpose. The Chicago Circus takes the White house in 20 days. This should be amusing. Don’t forget to stay in touch with your congress, make their life a living hell if need be.
Join the NRA and buy more GUNS. The 2nd amendment is there for a reason.
Stay safe, hold those you love close, we are all we have.

He combines a traditional Christmas message and manages to work in his socialist leanings. (don’t President Elects have people to tell them not to say certain things?)
Ah well, for those that missed this:
Shaking head…

Who else? How bout you? Yes YOU, the hard working trucker? How about YOU? The small business owner? Truck Stops? Espresso bars? (Will Starbucks be next?) How about YOU?
Everyone is lining up to feed from the trough. Now its collages and universities… seems like they would know better. If it were not for that Free Money thing. AIM Column | By Bethany Stotts | December 21, 2008 On December 15, thirty prominent academic associations lobbied Congress for the inclusion of funds for schools in the upcoming economic stimulus bill, adding higher education to other industries looking for federal aid in the midst of the economic turndown. Other businesses calling for government funding include failing newspapers and two Detroit automakers—Chrysler and GM.
I waited all my life, literally, all my life, to do one thing; Put on the uniform of the US Military. To earn the title of Soldier or Marine. It was, for the largest part of 17 years, the only thing that mattered to me.
My birthday is in late February, by April 17th I was on a plane. Fort Sill Oklahoma, home of the Artillery. These people were going to teach me to play with REALLY BIG GUNS! I could hardly breath. (or wait)
I had joined the Arizona Army National Guard, I had my reasons for going part time, they were good reasons then and still are today.
I wish I had gone full time.
Here I am, 30 years later. I’m a big guy, hard working and a dedicated employee. I do my job and do it well. I have a rough exterior and am even rougher inside. The work requires it.
Want to see me tear up? Tell me a story of courage, one of bravery, tell me about one of my brothers and sisters, just doing the job they CHOOSE to do.
Thank You to All of the NRA Members Who Made Their Voices Heard!
As we reported, the Tennessee Department of Safety (TDOS) was sending letters to all firearms instructors requiring them to complete and return a copy of a Handgun Safety School Class Roster within 24 hours of the completion of a handgun permit certification class, “effective immediately.” The roster required a student to provide information concerning the name of the firearm owner, the name of the student using the firearm, as well as the make, model, and serial number of firearms used.
We are happy to report that the serial number requirement has been retracted. School rosters with a student’s name and the make and model of firearm used are allowed per TDOS’ Rules and Regulations. The make and model of a student’s training firearm has always been required on certificates.
Thank you to all of the NRA members who answered the call and voiced their opposition to this backdoor, de facto gun registration plot. Without you, this victory would not have been possible.
