The Devil????

Today is a sad day for anyone who is proud to be an American.

There is an organization, with headquarters in NY, that has worn out it's welcome.

It is called the UN.

Today, this organization has shown what a farce and a despicable entity it is.
Today, a madman walked into a building on American soil, and insulted our President.
Today, on American soil, a group of madmen applauded the man who called The President of the United States "The Devil".
And just yesterday, the 5'4" Hitler of our generation, Ah-mad-in-the-head, stood on American soil, and spewed his putrid propaganda. (Oh how I would love to crush his ugly little head in)

The UN is a joke, and while I loved Mr. Bush's speech there, I feel he could have had more impact if he had forgone even gracing the council with his presence. The President's presence in a room gives it credibility, and the UN deserves NONE.


I will proudly vote for the first Presidential candidate who pledges to kick the UN out of the US, and the US out of the UN.

The top

OK, the subtitle to my blog is "Random rants from the heart of Texas", so I guess it is time for a random rant.
Well, maybe not so much of a rant, but a musing, (that may turn into a rant)...we shall see.
I was sitting on my comfy couch a minute ago, watching Monday Night Football and into the broadcasting booth comes the MVP of the NBA, Dwyane Wade. (I hope I spelled that right). He is sitting there, being cool, and one of the broadcasters asks him what it like to be so young and yet having reached the pinnacle of his profession. I don't remember his answer, but I found myself thinking about what it would be like to have reached the highest point of my chosen career, and be there in my early twenties.
The old adage, "It's lonely at the top" comes to mind.
I mean, all this guy has to reach for is attaining the same goal, or reaching the same mountain top, one more time.
That may be cool for him, but for me, I don't want to spend my career reaching over and over again for something I have already attained.
I guess this is one of those 'life questions' that we all struggle with. And, since I have not yet achieved the pinnacle of my career, who am I to judge.
So I will end with this, we must all pick our goals wisely, lest we obtain them, and remain hungry for more.
