I Know Who Not to Bank With Now

I can't believe a bank would do

this

I don't have a bank account, mainly because I'm happy dealing on a cash and carry basis (my military pay goes into my parents' bank account, which they use to pay for my bills, like car payment, insurance, and cell phone). Also, I never had an account with Bank of America because there weren't any branches near me. There was recently one opened in Tinley Park, and I now know that I will never have one with them because of this.

If you have an account with Bank of America, close it. If not, then don't get one in the first place.

More Twists than a Texas Tornado

Yes, I know that's a stupid phrase, but I'm not sure what else to say about

this

From what I can tell, if a mistrial isn't declared and Johnny Sutton isn't disbarred as a result of this information,there is something seriously wrong with our justice system.

Name that Weapon

An interesting-looking

weapon

has surfaced in Iraq, and no one can figure out what the heck it is.

So I pose a challenge to everyone-email me your ideas at rottweillercub84@comcast.net.
I will post your suggestions in a later post.

What the Hell is the Matter With This Guy?

Border Patrol agents Ramos and Compean aren't Johnny Sutton's only victims.

Sheriff's deputy

Guillermo "Gilmer" Hernandez

is also in jail for doing his job.

He fired shots at the tires of a car that was trying to run him over. One of them went off-target and hit the trunk, which hit an illegal alien the men were trying to smuggle in.

Texas Rangers and ATF do an investigation and clear him of any wrongdoing.

This is where it starts to sound just like the Ramos and Compean case.

The case got reopened after they tracked down the illegals involved, which once again, Sutton believed, and convicted and sent Hernandez to prison.

I don't know what this man's problem is, but he needs to be investigated and disbarred.

Please, sign the petition at

Grassfire.org

to get yet another victim of this evil SOB pardoned, ASAP.

Thank you.

How Insane Can These People Get?

It looks like

polio

is making a comeback in Pakistan, as they believe that it's a plot to sterilize Muslims.

I am just amazed at how they care more about what the imams think then what doctors tell them, and their lack of concern for their children's health.

That's similar to what was stated in 2003 in Nigeria, which caused polio to spread to polio-free countries in a year and a half.

I am just speechless.

The hits just keep on coming...

My blood pressure, which is already sky-high, has now gone into the stratosphere thanks to

this

I can't believe our government was intimidated by another country, which hates our guts, to prosecute these men for doing their jobs.

Granted, they didn't file the proper paperwork, but that was an internal matter for Border Patrol to have taken care of, which carried a max sentence of a five-day administrative leave.

I've said this before, and I'll say this again, go to

Grassfire.org

, sign the petitions and schedule the faxes to put pressure on Congress, the President, Attorney General, Department of Homeland Security, and US Attorney Johnny Sutton to pardon Ramos and Compean, as well as Deputy Gilmer Hernandez, and launch an investigation into the actions of DHS.

Also, pray for these men and their families. I have been doing so every night this week, and will continue do so.

Pray without ceasing. 2Thes. 5:17

This just keeps getting worse and worse...

There is a grave injustice being done in this country right now.

It involves the case of two Border Patrol agents, Ignacio "Nacho" Ramos and Jose Compean.

There's a lot to say, but I'm just going to give you the highlights.

In February of 2005, there was an incident in El Paso, Texas, where Ramos and Compean were working. A drug smuggler, Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila, was running over 700 pounds of marijuana into the States. Compean claimed to see a shiny object in Davila's hand and Ramos fall down. He put two and two together and figured that his partner got shot. He started firing his weapon (by the way, the first time he had done so in his five years as a Border Patrol agent), and none of his shots were hitting.

Ramos finally shot at the smuggler and hit him in the buttocks.

Last year, the men were convicted of assault with serious bodily injury, assault with a deadly weapon, discharge of a firearm in relation to a crime of violence and civil rights violations. Despite the fact that three of the jurors felt compelled to vote guilty, the judge refused to grant them a new trial. In January, Ramos and Compean were told to start serving their sentences.

This is where it really starts to get bad.

After

America's Most Wanted

aired a story on the men, Ramos was reportedly beaten by several other prisoners at 10PM Saturday night in a federal penitentiary in Yazoo City, Missisippi, where several illegals are serving jail terms. They had waited until he had fallen asleep to start kicking and beating him, all the while yelling "Kill the Border Patrol agent!". He has several bruises on his chest, neck, head, and back.

This ordeal enrages me, and I suggest that everyone go to

Grassfire.org

and sign a petition for President Bush to pardon, no, exonerate these men, and pray for Ramos and Compean's safety, as well as their families, and for their quick release and reunion with their families.

This is a late dictator...

According to a source close to Pajamas Media,

Ayatollah Khamenei

has rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible.

He is stiff, bereft of life, but not resting in peace.

He is, however, pushing up the daisies.

All right, I'm done with my Monty Pythons references.

Gotta Love the IDF

If I'm not mistaken, "kahlb" means bitch. It's also extrememly addictive, and is driving me to learn Hebrew.

The butcher is hung

Saddam

did his dance

just after 6AM Baghdad time (10PM EST).

Right now, all I can say is that the bastard deserved it, and I hope he suffered, after what he put thousands of innocents and their families through.

I pray that the Iraqi people gain some closure from this, and that things will improve from here.

In Case You're Wondering...

Yes, I'm still alive.

I have been quite busy these days. I am no longer repoing, but I am back at UPS, which is great. I am also working a second job at Sports Authority in Matteson, where I'm a cashier. It's great there. It's hard on the feet, but it's fun.

Life is, well, interesting with my boyfriend. I haven't seen him in ages due to him working like a nut, and he's going through all this nonsense with the divorce. I hope that things get straightened out soon.

Where do I begin?

The midterm elections were a farce, and now the Dhimmis have control. I hope that given the right Republican, Hillary will stay out of the White House forever.

Saddam Hussein won't live to see the New Year. Last month, he was found guilty of all charges and was sentenced to death by hanging. He is slated to be done away with by the end of the month. All I have to say about that is that I would love to be the person to hang the bastard.

Well, I'm off to bed, I'll see you later.

This is Great

I found this while on LGF

A Christian Witness

I find it fitting now more than ever, as Israel is the beacon of hope for democracy in the Middle East.

Don't Mess with us Bloggers!!

That was the lesson learned from the

Murry Gunty saga

The reason you don't mess with bloggers is pretty simple: we will never let it go away quietly.

That is the tenacity of bloggers.

Well...

It's been a while since I last posted to this blog.

I've been busy, but I've also been lazy with this. The main reason is I just haven't felt like psoting anything to this site. I guess you could say that I've been going through a bit of a personal crisis. I had issues with medical bills being paid by the Army so I could go back to the doctor and get cleared to go back to work (despite me calling them and telling them on Monday, however, they won't even schedule and appointemnt with me until the check is cleared).

I have, however, been filling the void with doing annual training at my reserve unit, and working with a friend (he's a repo man, or as they are referred to today as, recovery agents). Yes, I am the last person you want to see in the middle of the night. I am the one that will tell you to clean out your car and hand me the keys because you haven't been making your payment, or because you took out a title loan and you didn't keep up with the payments, or you didn't pay for your car insurance and you have it on a loan. So, my readers, I am asking, no make that begging you to keep up with your payments of whatever it is that you need to, because if you live in the South Suburbs of Chicago, you will be seeing me at your front door if you don't.

I am now also going to school. I am now majoring in Information Technology, and my concentration is going to be in programming. I am taking classes on accounting, operating systems, and Visual Basic programming. Visual Basic is more of a challenge than I thought it was going to be, since I never took any programming classes before, but I think I'm going to survive. The operating systems class is an absolute breeze, though. I just do some stuff on the computer with a data disk I was given, and I just give answers based on what it does. The accounting class induces hair-pulling with me, as it is heavy in math (or rather, basically is math), and math and I were never friends. I'm just a shy dork that likes to fool around on computers and wants to get paid to do that.

Well, my attitude about the deal with the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbullshit is that it's, well, crap. If you ask me, Ehud Olmert should have just told the UN to fuck off and told the IDF to go nuts. Actually, he should have also sent some nuclear warheads over to Iran while he was at it. It would have killed tow birds with one stone. But you know what, all the ceasefire is going to do is give the both of them time to reload, and when Hezbollah does something stupid again, it's going to be even worse for them. About the kids held hostage over there, it's safe to say that they're both dead, or that their captors are dead, but more likely it's the former. What they really need is Netanyahu back in power. Maybe he will show the terrorists a thing or two.

Steve Irwin, the goofy Aussie known around the world as the "Crocodile Hunter", died last week while swimming too close to a sting ray and got stung in the heart. He was 44 years old. He is survived by his wife Terri, daughter Bindi Sue, and son Bob.

That's all I ahve to say right now. I promise I will update sooner than I have been.

"Why Do They Even Bother" of The Day Award

Some things just make you wonder "Why are they even bothering?"

This

is what's making me wonder why they're even bothering.

The man is a terrorist who doesn't want to eat, and they're force-feeding him with a tube. If I were in charge of things over there, I would just let him starve to death, or I would force-feed him bacon and sausage for breakfast, ham sandwhiches for lunch, and pork roast with chitlins for dinner. Yes, I know, I'm pure evil. Tell me something I don't already know.

Has the Public School System Gone Too Far?

A high school district in the People's Republic of Ill-Annoy

gave detention to students

.

For posting stuff on blogs

At home.

Granted, the stuff was illicit in matter, but where are the parents? If they were around, they probably wouldn't be doing that stuff. This is also why it is recommended that parents put the PC in common area, such as a den, living room, or family room. That is what my parents did when we first got a computer that could access the internet, as my sister and I were twelve and fifteen, repectively, at the time. They also set up rules about where to go and not go, and what to say and not say when talking to people online.

Granted, I have a computer in my bedroom, but I didn't get it until I was nineteen ( I will be twenty-two in October), and I bought it with my own money. Add to that, I was a legal adult at the time, and I have better sense than to do what they do. If anyone propositions me, or proposes to me online (that has actually happened to me once), I block their E-mails and instant messenger screen names.

The Saga Continues...

The insanity that is the trial of Saddam Hussein and his co-defendants is finally getting under control due thanks to Maouf Abdel-Rahman.

Tariq Aziz

(aka "Baghdad Bob")took the stand yesterday in his PJ's to show how sick he is. He wants to go overseas to be treated for a heart ailment. However, prison officials say that he is getting adequate treatment.

Also, the same old stuff happened during the trial. They accused the court of being illegitimate, making the trial illegitimate, and that they shouldn't be there. The judge finally had enough of this and told them to knock it off, or, he'll have them thrown out. It got a guard to approach the defendant's pen for them to shut up.

I just hope the circus ends soon, and that Saddam and his crew will be found guilty of all the crimes he's accused of, and speedily executed.

Rope, tree dictator. Some assembly required.

Yes, I'm still alive

Just to let you all know,I haven't fallen off the face of the earth.

I am thinking about starting a podcast. I have downloaded Audacity, and I have a membership at podcasting site. I just need to get around to actually doing the damn thing.

Barb

is going to end blogging activities at Typepad and will move on to another free site. She is also going to be moving to St. Louis within the next month or two. In case you're wondering why, Mike quit his job as a railroader (he wanted to quit that job for the last eight years, and he finally reached his breaking point). So, fare thee well, Barb, and good luck in St. Louis.

I also broke up with Tim, and am dating a wonderful man. I have a hell of a lot more in common that I did with Tim, and I would like to see where it goes. Hopefully, this one will be the one that I can settle down and start a family with.

The semster is finally over at Prairie State!!! I am not going to be taking classes over the summer. Instead, I am going to see if I can't find a job, and focus on doing stuff with my reserve unit. I would also like to spend time with my boyfriend.

Right now, I am pissed off about the situation with the illegals. They are doing demonstrations left and right, demanding "rights" that they don't have. The only right that they have is to leave and not come back. Hopefully, Congress and President Bush will get their acts together and figure something out that doesn't involve amnesty. However, they did establish English as the national language, so that's one good thing they've got going. They also plan on using National Guard soldiers from the border states to help the Border Patrol. All I have to say is that they better be allowed to carry loaded weapons, in case the illegals decide to do pull some funny business.

The Cubs are also sucking ass right now. Derek Lee got hurt, and they just went downhill from there. They managed to salvage one game from the series against the White Sox, but they got a real whooping last night against the Marlins, 9-1
I'm supposed to be working right now, so I will get back to all of you later.

New link

In case you haven't noticed, there's a new link in my blogroll. It's from the Free Iran blog.

The reason I put it there is very clear. The situation with Iran is escalating, and we need to help the Iranian people depose this lunatic that they have in power.

I hope we are able to nuke the crap out of wherever the hell this stuff is getting enriched, and be done with it.

I am so sick and tired

... of this

bullshit

!!!
I just don't get why there aren't any INS or Border Patrol agents at these things, arresting every single one them. If you ask me, the only right they have is to leave and not come back until they have their i's dotted and their t's crossed.

Now, before you start accusing me of being a xenophobe, I'm not. I'm fourth-generation Irish and German American, and damn proud of it. Immigrants are welcome to come here. All that we ask is that you get your paperwork in order before you come.

I have a friend who is trying to come to the States-legally. He applied for the Green Card Lottery, and he's not going to find out until next year whether or not he will be able to come. I can only imagine what he's going through, waiting to hear whether or not he can come here and enlist in the Army, which is the reason he's doing what he is doing.

Now, if only we had more prospective immigrants like that...
