John Edwards: King of the Bobo's

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Wednesday, August 13, 2008 6:58:39 PM
Nobody’s Perfect: Okay, he’s not perfect.
 
John Edwards, King of the Bobo’s, has been having an affair with a skinny blond. He has also been paying her to run around video taping his every bobonousious move. He put her up in an expensive mistress abode far away from his wife and kids. And on top of that, he lied about it all to the press even though his wife has known all about it for quite some time.
 
She decided not to divorce him…for whatever reasons of her own. Most likely, she has low self-esteem. Who wouldn’t after years of living with the ‘narcissist’ John Edwards? You’d have to have the ego of a Madonna to hold up against John’s nuptial arguments about his ongoing rendezvous with himself as his most favorite person of choice.
 
“Honey, that’s not my baby. I was just practicing “baby kissing” for my tours. You know, people hand you their babies all the time, it drives me crazy.”
 
While John Edwards was admitting his philandering ways, somehow to me, he didn’t look upset about it at all. After all, his wife knew---so his kids knew---and why should he be upset? Go ahead, beat him up. He’s already forgiven himself.
 
After all, Bill Clinton did exactly the same thing, and lied under oath, a much greater sin. John only lied to reporters. Has it hurt Bill’s career? Nope.
 
John probably looks in the mirror and sees another John…John Kennedy. The man who was the poster boy for adultery; a man who used to have two or three women at one time, sometimes two or three times a day. Kennedy made the word “orgy” almost a constitutional right to power. His brother Ted even took it a step further and left a ‘sweet young thing’ at the bottom of a lake, without even a filibuster.
 
 And long before that, was the over-rated FDR, who had many an affair--one with Eleanor’s secretary, all while sitting in a wheelchair. Too bad YouTube wasn’t around then. Wheelchair Political Sex would have gotten a lot of Google.
 
So---instead of acting shocked, we should be discussing the real point: Who is trying to hurt John’s political career? Dick Morris has suggested the Clintons, and I believe he’s right. Who knows? Maybe Obama had him on the short list for VP? Maybe the Clintons wanted payback.
 
If you read history and biographies, powerful men have grabbed whatever they wanted out of life, and most of the time that includes various sexual exploits. All these politicians know when history is written, it won’t matter a lick what woman they bedded besides their wives, or who was gay, or who lied about it. It won’t even matter when they had themselves and their favorite strippers cloned.
 
But, what is amazing is just how many women who are married to these powerful men forgive the man and stay married to them. Most of these women can support themselves and their children very well, so why?
 
Take Hillary. She got five-course meals every night because her husband was President. If I were first lady and found out my husband was having an affair, and the choice was for ME to leave? I would have probably brought the finest girls from Vegas and set them up at his expense and then traveled the world…which is exactly what Hillary and Eleanor did at our expense.
 
If the real truth came out, the amount of money paid out to hush up illegitimate children and sexual affairs by famous men of power would probably surpass the national debt. Because as brilliant as men are…they see a beautiful or sexy woman, and they just can’t seem to help themselves.
 
Most of the time, it’s kept a well guarded secret because so many of them do it. Then there are the men who just use porn or prostitutes, or frequent the strip bars, thereby telling themselves they are not “having affairs” so that they can look in their wives eyes and say, “I love you honey” and actually think they mean it.
 
Remember Jimmy Carter's “lusting” confession in Playboy?
 
Men throughout history have set up the “just deny” old boy’s clubs, because, let’s face it… most of them need their wives. Bill Clinton needed Hillary. She literally saved his career when it was reported he was having an affair with Gennifer Flowers.
 
And it’s not only the Democrats that have affairs. Have both Bushes been faithful to their wives? Has John McCain? He left a wife who waited for him while he was in Vietnam, only to come back and marry a woman who could help put him in the White House.
 
And Obama? Do you think he’s been faithful all these years to his wife?
 
You might say their private lives should not even be talked about, and it used to be that way. But in a world where millions of women vote…it’s all a matter of trust. And if a man can lie to his wife, lying to voters is nothing. And that’s why it’s important.
 
If there is one thing we need right now, it’s leaders we can trust.
 
John Edwards might be forgiven by his wife, his kids, his mistress, and even his dogs, but the jury is out on whether the American people will forgive him…nice bobo hair or not.

Nobody Knows: You CAN Eat Bugs and Live to Form Human Circles!

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Tuesday, August 12, 2008 4:04:27 PM
Nobody Knows: The Chinese never starved their people---they let them eat bugs! So, on that lovely note, here in no particular order are a few unknown particulars…mostly about the 2008 Olympic China games…
 
*****

Nobody Knows why no one is commenting on the fact that our Olympic American Team came out on the field in China, with a big white, Islamic Moon plastered over the little itty-bitty Olympic circles…on their shoulders for the world to see. Never mind that the ugly uniforms made them look like the sons and daughter of Oxford’s illuminati dream team of yacht club multimillionaires in poor polyester.
 
And since everybody knows that the Islamic moon is the symbol of Muslims, and everybody knows that it’s “all about the oil,” why were the FOX NEWS commentators purposely NOT mentioning the concern of the Islamic Moon symbol on the lapel on their costume report this morning? Instead they were trying to redirect our “objections” to the hats. All Ralphie baby had to do was put an American flag on those hats and we would have all been at least satisfied that those were AMERICANS!
 
Ralph Lauren, you need to get off your Obama boat.

Nobody Knows that if you watched the men's Olympic gymnastics contest last night, it was obvious that the American team kicked everyone else’s butt, and it was also noted that the boy who made the most mistakes on the American team, was clearly…dare I mention it? Clearly of Asian decent. I was angry at the blatant misscorings…until I saw the Chinese boys actually break down and cry when winning the gold.
 
What? You cry when you win? You would have thought they had gotten a new life--
and speaking of lives...
 
Nobody Knows how come nobody has mentioned that since China had the “one child per family rule,” and that means that millions of girl fetuses are aborted, therefore the reason that all those boy soldiers could get out and play the drums and run in perfect formations…the fact that this grand army of men was being displayed as proof of China being superior to us, because it can make it’s people obey just about whatever it says, while our government keeps us all racially, culturally, and monetarily divided every single day, not wanting us to “nationalize” or feel pride in our country…just who do you think has a better chance of winning?…(whew!)
 
Remember, Bill Clinton once proudly proclaimed, “We will not always be the big dog on the block!” And bless his heart, he made sure that the Chinese got more powerful by also making sure they got our nuclear and computers technology, which brings us to another....

Nobody Knows: Bill Clinton and the Bush family can take great pride in bringing China into superiority over us, but nobody knows why more credit was not given to Steven Spielberg for that unbelievable opening ceremony, since he worked on it with them for over a year. Let’s not even go into why the Chinese love American-made tall Chinese basketball players. All I kept thinking was: Somebody should thank Thomas Edison…once again, cheated...
 
How’s it feel to be up there with old Tom, Steven?

Nobody Knows if little George W. Bush learned to love bike riding in China because of mom and dad, who use to bike ride all over Beijing when he was ambassador. And nobody knows what they would look like now, had they continued with the sport.
 
And last but not least---since we now know that some of the fireworks at the Chinese opening we were seeing were computer enhanced, and that little girl singing was lip-synching, and the scoring on gymnastics were rigged, was else is being falsified? Hey, when there is no mention of the obvious in our own news of these obvious facts…nobody knows just when our two countries began to merge…

Nobody Knows just when we will be getting tasty scorpions to eat in our own grocery stores. I'd say look for scorpions on a stick by next spring...in time for Ralph's new Moon-creasted fashions and our new President swearing in...
 
By then all the rulers of the world can say--- “Let them eat bugs!”

Pass the ketchup, please.

Nobody Flashes Money!

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Tuesday, August 12, 2008 12:49:48 AM
Nobody Flashes: Here's the story:
It's all about time. Read any "get rich" book and they will tell you the number one MOST important thing in life is time.
 
So...here's what's going on in my little neighborhood..St. Louis, like many mid-westerns towns, is losing mega-zillions of jobs, and my husband's might be next. He works mostly in the housing building business, and as you all know, that's not doing very well. He has worked for two companies since I have known him, and both of them were bought out by the very same multinational corporation, which has gone around basically eliminating all competition everywhere---which it has done. All the major corporations jobs are gone here now, only to be eliminated.
 
They weren't kidding when they said we'd have a "service" economy.
 
I know, this cripple-ripple hasn't hit everywhere, especially among those who make more than the average salary. Certainly, the majority of the pundits in the media haven't really felt it, nor are they likely too.But here in the mid-west, it's pretty bad. Unless of course you work for the government, but even they are complaining that they are not getting their usual raises
.
So far, he has made it through the first cuts. But we figure it's only a matter of time...soooooo...
 
That means that we have to get ready for this, like little squirrels gathering our nuts...which means I have to spend time trying to figure out some way to make money. (Becoming a stripper would cost major plastic surgery, so that's out.)
 
 I realize we are like just like millions of other Americans, who are being faced with this downsizing of the middle class, unfortunately, each hour I spend blogging, takes me away from from trying to sell stuff around the house, or finding something or someway to get cars paid..etc...to get ready for what's seems to be coming.
 
In other words I must think about MONEY..you know..that stuff that feeds you? Yeah.
 
Now, since I'm having a hard time NOT writing, I'm going to go ahead and post little thoughts. If I get a moment and some time to write longer stuff...then I will.
 
I just wanted to let you know, that I'm not actually sitting around taking bubble baths, watching my hair grow, petting my dogs...like most Americans...we did NOT see this coming, and if Obama gets elected...well, I don't want to even think about it.
 
And since I haven't made any REAL money, for over eight years...I'm really not sure what to do.
BUT..in the meantime...I will keep up my Nobody's nonsense...don't ask me why.

"Why do birds suddenly appear...everytime.......you are near?
Just like me, they long to be...close to you."

That about explains it. I long to be close to you.

EVERYBODY Loves a Hero-Jason

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Sunday, August 10, 2008 12:37:25 AM
Everybody Loves A Hero: First off, I want to say that I'm sorry to "Army mom" for not getting Jason's wonderful letter up sooner.
 
You see, I had terrible news this week. A young man I had known since a child, a young neighbor boy, who spent half his young life at my house because he was friends with my son, was ruthlessly murdered downtown St. Louis.
 
A black man put a bullet through his head. It seems, he and his friends were riding around downtown, (white boys) and pulled up next to a car of black men. Stupid words were shouted.
 
Colin, (the young man) was sitting shotgun, and evidently was not the trouble maker at the scene, it was the driver of the car. (a "friend" of his) Who knows what racial words were said, there was probably drugs and alchohol involved...I'm not sure...but the black man got out of his car to shoot the driver and the driver ducked. Colin died instantly from a bullet to the back of his neck, or so his mother was told. The black man has not been found, and probably never will be.
 
As you can imagine, we are all in mourning. You don't have to be in Iraq to get murdered. Some of America's cities are war zones now. There's a whole blog here, I have so much to say... but like I said...it will come out when I start up again...right now, my emotions are much to close to the event sooooo
*******

On to JASON...(and Thanks to our Army MOM! for sending me his letter!)

This letter is really special. Jason and his unit save the lives of thier Iraq brothers-in-arms...and also makes a great point about how this very important news is not getting out to the American public AT ALL. You will be, as I was, so very moved by Jason and his efforts to save the Iraq's. 
 
The letter was written in February, 2008, some time ago, but as you will notice, it's timeless.
*******
 
Hello everyone once again from beautiful and cool Afghanistan. A little interesting this week so shall I get started?
 
We leave the FOB and start to travel out to the border when we get no more than 500 meters past the FOB when we see a truck that is stuck and is blocking our way. My terp gets out and says that the tire is off. There is no way to change the tire there since it is too muddy so what does the driver do? He calls about 15 road workers over there and they then proceed to lift up the back end of the truck and move it over some. Then they go to the front and do the same thing there! Well, I have to say that the road is clear and we can drive through now. The truck is not there when we come back 6 hours later.
 
Ok, this past week saw us going out to the border of Pakistan and Afghanistan and looking at living condition out there. What is normally a 25 minute drive turned into over 3 hours of driving to try and make it out there. Not only did we have to travel through the snow (which some people pay to get to do) we met a convoy in the worst place possible. Not 300 meters after the best place to meet them, we met them in a curve and there were snowbanks on each side of the road. Man, it was really fun driving through that snow and the bumps and dips and all in the road.
 
Well, after about 15 minutes, we make it past there and continue on our way. We make it out to the border and it is good to get out there. I have not been there since last October. It was the first week of October because our firefights were in the middle of the month.
 
So anyways, we get up there and this is the Major’s first time up there as well as the other members of the new group. They see the sites and we get to see our little ‘pets’. Yes, the dogs, Sybil, vet and the others are there. They are really glad to see us and we feed them some of our MRE’s that we have for lunch. Although there is like 5 feet of snow still on the ground, they can walk on top since it is hard snow.
 
We eat our MRE’s and then look at the border positions. I show some of the places to the major and I show him where the border is and to watch where you step so you are not in Pakistan.
 
Of course, there is a Pakistani soldier watching us the whole time but he does not have his weapon with him. We have ours. We bring on of our terps up that can speak Urdu (Pakistan’s language) and we ask the guard if we can come up and take pictures and meet him. He says yes so we walk to the OP and shake hands and talk to him for a few minutes. He is nice and lets us take all the pictures we want.
Our main focus is to take pictures of the Afghan OP’s but we have to stand right on the border to take them. The Afghans stay way back from the border. (Side note: The Afghans and Paki’s hate each other and this area was the site of a major battle last May where the AF and PK were fighting each other. This is also where a US Major was shot and killed last year. This is why we are always armed and always ask permission if we are going to be on the border line so that they do not think we are invading and just need to do some site surveys.
 
We look at a few more areas where we may build some Afghan buildings and then make our journey back to the firebase. This takes about 2 more hours. We download our gear and fuel our vehicles.
 
The next day, we plan on staying up here working on end-of-tour paperwork when Fazli, the Afghan ABP S-1 (personnel guy) and that can speak 6 languages, come up to us telling us that he needs our help. 7 of his men were burned and injured in an explosion of a propane tank at the border where we were less than 24 hours earlier. This happened at 12:30 and it is now after 4:30.
 
It took the ABP 4 hours to drive the soldiers to the clinic. When we get there, we set up security and I take control of the security element while the others go inside the clinic to help. 5 of the men are burned badly but 2 are seriously burned and they are in shock and looks like they will not make it. Their airway is starting to close since of the swelling. Skin is burned and it has a certain odor to it. Hands, feet, faces, upper body, etc. are all 2nd and 3rd degree burns over 50% of their bodies and I can hear one moaning for God. He is calling for Allah, Allah.
 
I may never forget that........
 
 Our medic says that unless we get his airway open and intibate them, they will die. Plain and simple............... We then load them up in their ambulance (not more than a minivan) and take them up to our clinic to try and save their lives. I can hear the same soldier moaning for Allah. I forgot what the words he was saying but he was calling for God to help him. Over and over.
 
Well, we get them in the clinic and start working on them. Why did we not MEDEVAC them you may ask? There was too much cloud cover and fog and you could not see more than 100 feet in front of you so there was no MEDEVAC at all.
 
It is now around 5:30 and the medics and doctor (yes, we have an MD here with us) work on the soldiers trying to keep their airway open and to keep them out of pain. They are given Demerol for the pain (can’t use morphine because that slows your breathing down). They are basically almost in a drug-induced coma but not all the way. They are still conscious. The medics and doctor work on them for over 3 hours working on the two. We give them meds and oxygen and keep them out of pain.
 
After they are stable enough to move, we load them back up on the ambulance and they drive back to the hospital in Gardez. It is over a 5 hour drive there. As of today, they are doing better but still will require skin grafts and will always be scarred. They have about 15-20 years of recovery from this.
 
Ok, let me ask you this. Will you ever see something like us helping our fellow soldiers out on the news? NOPE! What they will say is that some civilians were killed or a school was blown up or something negative. You will never hear about the 300 people that we hired to improve the road, or the school that literally jumps for joy when we give them school supplies. Or the coochies that swarm us when we do a Humanitarian Aid drop. Nope, it will always be something negative.
 
These are soldiers that I have worked with for the past 9 months and since I have been embedded with them, I consider them my comrade-in-arms.
 
The local civilians saw what we did to help them and know that we tried. Fazli knew that he could come up to the FOB and get help and that is what he did. May Allah watch over them.
 
Well after the excitement from that day, we take the next few days to do yet more paperwork and work on the FOB. Since the ABP commander is at the hospital, there is nothing that we can do there so we work on our vehicles. No, nothing is wrong with the new vehicles but we clean them out and do the regular maintenance checks on them. We add oil to my vehicle and check the other things on it and clean it out.
 
The next day, we expect some visitors. The Brigade team is coming up here. Well, just the COL, SGM and the Doc. They just want to get out and see their men and the environment that we all live in. We stow their gear and then show them a tour of the FOB (which is really more of a firebase than a FOB). We give them the tour of the base to include the Russian bunker and show them the area around. We then eat and have a conference with them. They plan to stay for a few day to see what we live in everday.
 
Me? I like it up here. If I could get my mail here rather than being grounded, I would be happy to stay here the whole time. I mean, we do our missions from here and since we are 4 hours closer to the border, that is more time we can spend with the ABP. This is what we are here to do and we can do it more efficiently but we still must go to Gardez every few weeks in order to coordinate things there and pick up our mail.
 
WOOHOO!! That is one of the best times here is when the mail runs. Since I do not get any bills here, I am not too afraid to open the mail I get. Haha
 
Well, we are here on the FOB this weekend in Jaji. The weather has been much warmer. Down in the low 20’s at night and then in the 60’s the next day and in the sun, it is even warmer. When there is no breeze, it feels quite nice. The only bad thing about the better weather is that the bad guys start to come out more.
 
Well, that is about it from here this past week. The pictures are of the road workers moving the truck out of the way, me with a view of the Pakistan OP . I hope you enjoy the pictures. That is about it from here. I’ll talk to everyone soon!
 
Jason

Nobody Wants to Feel Like This---

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Thursday, August 07, 2008 9:36:03 PM

Nobody....

This nobody is going to stop posting, I am going to stop writing ...at least for awhile...due to the huge black dragon tsunami that is staring out at me right now, at my window...in the clouds...in the twilight.

I must bunker my hills.

Let's face it. The few of you that read me, know that I'm an odd duck, and there really is not much of a point to all my rantings, except they just...are.

Okay, I know I'm not thinking straight, and I know when I'm at that point....and I'm at that point. Besides, I have something else very important that I must see through.....

I will continue to post on Saturday night...Jason's writings...I hope you will read them. I will have two coming up and they are great insights into our hero's overseas.

I'm not sure how long I will be gone, but knowing me, if I see Bill Clinton at the democratic convention, I might not be able to contain myself...still....

In the meantime I thank you all for being my friends, and reading my little pieces of the universe. God Bless all...and wish me luck, as I wish you.

Here's a kiss to all...xxxx until whenever...

And remember...Nobody Knows, Nobody's Perfect, Nobody Cares, Nobody Flashes, Nobody Wins, and that's always been my Nobody's Opinion.

Paris and Pink Cups

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 10:47:35 PM

Nobody Cares: Paris Hilton, a woman who has been showing up, according to many, the Presidential candidates on her very superior energy policies has come up with even more suggestions.

Like Rinestone cup holders. Yes, Paris, ever the thinking candidate for the Pink White House, would also start a program for all Starbucks to sell her Rinestoe cup holders.

Not only are they reusable, they will save millions of dollars in oil usage, because as we all know, it takes oil to make plastic cups.

And Paris knows about oil. As she found out in her commercial, Hawaii is the best place to tan.

Just Plain Angry.

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Wednesday, August 06, 2008 1:18:24 PM
Nobody Knows: Yesterday I was so angry about so many things, that I sat down and wrote over six pages of exasperated mental agony in which I enumerated so many hated facts about our “Congress” and “Bush,” that after reading over it, I had to admit…I could not even dare to post it.
 
After all, in America you MUST not be angry as a writer, or else you are considered a novice. Which is probably another reason our politicians get by with so much----we must always give them the “benefit” of the doubt, or put in a joke or two mixed with our anger…or point out their serious corruptions with a grain of salt.

But it’s not a joke anymore.
 
And I’m still mad. I’m mad because our President is being protected by the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, and FOX news.
 
For instance: Ann Coulter wrote a lengthy piece just last week on John Edwards having an affair. This news was published by the National Enquirer, and she took it as the truth. That’s fine with me. But what’s not fine is the fact that for over six months the National Enquirer printed story after story about President George Bush having an affair with Condi Rice, and how Laura Bush had had enough of his drinking, and his affair and was leaving him.
 
On top of that, one would think there was some truth to the fact because I started noticing that Laura sat on the opposite side of the room at the dinners for a long time. Bush has also been having an even harder time speaking and has looked for well over a year, like he’d lost his best friend.
 
Did Ann Coulter write about that? No? Well, why not? Bias? Fair and balanced?
 
 I heard her say on the radio that we better dare not attack “her buddy Bush.”
 
Or did she say “Bushie?”
 
And Rush…he just celebrated what…twenty years on the radio? He spent the week celebrating this fact with calls from everyone, and well deserved. After all, as I remember, Rush has been the single voice of conservatism for most of my adult lifetime.
 
But…having said that...he has treated President Bush’s major insults to the American people with kid gloves, never, ever, dishing the man once…which right away makes Rush seem to this American loving conservative Independent like he is the right-hand man of President Bush himself.
 
My point? The Constitution should come first, and foremost, not any political party. Rush says he sides with the American people, but it’s not always true.
 
So when President George W. Bush took the time out of his “busy” day, and along with his ex-President father and brother Jeb Bush, congratulated Rush on his years of success...it kind of made me sick.
 
Daddy Bush made no secret of the fact that they all play golf regularly and yet---no one sees any danger in that? The most powerful man on the am radio is in the hands of the President-- right or wrong?
 
Yes, President Bush can find the time to call Rush Limbaugh, but he can’t find the time to make a call to get those two poor border agents out of jail for doing their job. He’s on the side of the drug lord. Has Rush been on this subject? Not in your life.
 
And while Phyllis Schlafly can praise Rush on making up the name “FemiNazi’s”--- I bet she doesn’t listen to him like I do every day. Rush’s view on ALL women is very limited. To Rush women are either sexy beefcakes for men to salivate over, or Feminists. And there are millions of women in America who are neither. What makes him any different from the liberals with his name calling? Oh, you might think he’s just “kidding” but I have never taking it that way, there is always a grain of truth in any joke.
 
Like the majority of Americans, I voted for Bush, twice. I was praying for the opposite of the Clintons dynasty. But---what we got was not only eight more years of Clinton’s agenda’s, but a man who took those liberal agenda’s and went even further into the goalpost of Orwell’s ‘1984” then we ever dreamed.
 
And I’m starting to believe that if Bush has had any success at all in the “War on Terror” or in Iraq, it’s due to the many thousands of brave American soldiers that frankly, make him look good, and have saved his ever-loving elitist butt time- after-time, from his many failed political disasters.
 
So, the only hope we have now is ourselves, Obama and McCain are handpicked by the oligarchy for global expansion---at the expense of America we love.
 
Welcome to Orwell’s dream come true---and my madness knows no bounds. I’m NOT getting over it any time soon...nope, nada, I'm now furious.

The Imaginary Phone Call to Gennifer Flowers---

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Tuesday, August 05, 2008 12:07:53 AM

Nobody's Perfect: "Hello"

"Hello, why Bill Clinton, why in the world are you calling me about the fact that Hillary is mad at you for saying all those racist things about Obama?"

"What do you want me to do about it?"

"You want WHAT?"

"Well, even if I came out and said that you never said one bad thing about black people, who would believe me? I mean, I even came out and said I supported Hillary...what more do you want?"

"Good lord Bill, don't you think it's a little late for that?"

"You want me to what? Talk to Obama?"

"Come on Bill, you know I never talked to him, ever. What's the matter with you?"

"Gee honey, I don't know what to tell you. It never bothered you before when she was mad at you."

"Bill, I gotta go...I mean, I'm sorry that the country thinks you ruined Hillary's chances to be President, but look at the good side...you've would have had to always walk behind her in every room...it almost as if you didn't want her to be President..come on now admit it. You're a male chauvinist, Bill, you always have been. "

"What did you say?"

"Oh whatever. Why don't you call Monica and get her to do it. Honey I gotta go...bye-bye now!"

Hey-Mr. Spaceman, Come On Down!

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Sunday, August 03, 2008 10:55:14 PM
Nobody’s Opinion: Okay, I’m going out on a limb here…we are not alone. Big news, huh?
 
Well it should have been!
 
Last week Dr. Edgar Mitchell, an astronaut of astounding and impeccable credentials, said that aliens have been among us for over 60 years. All the governments know it, and are just covering it up. NASA denied what he said, but by denying it, they put themselves at risk of having the citizens of America think NASA is completely incompetent for hiring men, (and women in diapers) who are nutcases.

Give us our money back for the moon landing that didn’t happen then!
 
NASA also announced last week that there was water on Mars. That news fell on the masses like a lead balloon over Roswell.
 
But, if like Fox Mulder and me, “You Want to Believe,” the best place to go to hear about UFO’s is that most informative late night a.m. radio show, Coast-to-Coast. Art Bell (who has seen a UFO) started the program, and George Noory who now hosts it, are the experts. And I’m one of the programs biggest fans.
 
Just last week they replayed a broadcast of John Lear, the son of the man who the Lear Jet was named after and a man of very serious credentials himself. John said in his oh-so-casual way that UFO’s are here, and not only that, but we have learned their technology.
 
John also said that our government has huge bunkers that go so deep, they can run atomic submarines in and out of them…which is where I suppose “they” are planning to go if our alien friends get upset.
 
Now---Last week we had Mr. Edgar admitting the truth, a rebroadcast of John Lear, then George Noory himself finally admitting to seeing two UFO’s. Congratulations, George---twins!
 
George Noory, the highly intelligent and consummate host of Coast-to-Coast am confessed that, after all these years, after endless hours of listening to hundreds of people who call him up at three in the morning to say that they have been abducted and sometimes abused by spacemen, he finally saw his first UFO with the help of a guy who has his own business taking people out to see them every night and looking through very expensive night- vision goggles.
 
Oh, so that’s why the rest of us don’t see them---we don’t have the right equipment.
 
I have mixed feeling on this subject. I, like many, went through my UFO phrase. Were they real? Did they really mutilate cattle and suck human eggs up through a tube. Did Mr. Walton really go into space, only to live through the shock of it all?
 
Was War of the Worlds just a bit too scary?
 
I still haven’t seen one.
 
BUT---Last night Coast to Coast had a world exclusive. May Pang, John Lennon’s old girlfriend, recounted how she and John were in their New York apartment one night, had just ordered pizza…John went out on the balcony, (nude) and there right about his head was a giant UFO…just spooming merrily along the New York Skyline and buildings.
 
“Oh look 78333---isn’t that the famous John Lennon?’’
 
“I think you’re right!”
 
“Is that naked woman standing beside him YOKO?”
 
“No, that one’s human---let’s leave them alone.”
 
So--- I for one believed MS Pang. Why? Because my mother once told me she and my dad, right after they were married back in 1947, were driving one night and saw a UFO. (Insert your own joke here.)
 
The other reason that I think that May Pang was telling the truth was because she had just ordered a pizza, when John made her come out onto their roof patio.
 
Pizza?
 
Anyway, the real question on my mind is this; Why, after all these years, are these very common “UFO” sightings happening again? Is it nuclear Iran? Or is this a psychological ploy being played upon us to get us ready for the announcement that aliens are all over the place…get use to it. Kind of like our gas prices.
 
I just wish they’d get the announcement over with. Obama and McCain news is getting depressing. After all, if they can cover up alien spaceships being among us for over sixty years…what else are they hiding?

“Hey Mister Spaceman, won’t you please take me along? I won’t do anything wrong! Hey Mister Spacemen---won’t you please take me along for ride?”---The Bryds
 
I’m practicing this song daily. I’ll be ready.

EVERYBODY Loves a Hero

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Sunday, August 03, 2008 12:06:24 AM
Everybody Loves A Hero: Several weeks ago, I had to go get my car license renewed, and as I walked up to the counter to pay my taxes, I must admit, I got choked up over the hundreds of pictures behind this very beautiful and proud "army mom." There were soldeirs pictures all over the wall behind her.
 
This woman was VERY speical, she loved the soldiers and didn't care who knew it! I wish I had a picture of her, but I didn't expect to meet someone like her while I was paying my TAXES! Anyway...she told me her daughter was over in the fight...she gave me her e-mail and sent me this letter---a soldier's letter. I'm HOPING she sends me more. If she does, I will post them here on Saturday Nights, just because--soldiers are HERO's.
 
I mean, they even protect Nancy Pelosi, and that's deserve a lot in my book, I'm not sure I'd be so brave. (said tongue in cheek)
 
As you read this play by play explanation of a unit under fire, remember, while we are watching baseball games, many of our finest Americans are facing life and death. This stuff is happening everyday, and we don't really hear that much about the real hardships they face daily. I hope, like me, you will get a huge sense of pride out of our troops after reading this...and today... say a prayer for them all. God Bless them---and thank you Lori, "army" mom, for sharing this with me.

And thanks to Jason for sharing your story...I get upset when my water boils over onto my stove, let alone having gunfire whiz by my head! I have no idea how you guys and gals do what you do...whew!
 
******** This is the actual report from a gunfight back in October, with a friend of mine in Afghanistan. His name is Jason. He and his unit are Reservists. Jason is a farmer in Alabama and 1 weekend a month he "plays Army". All of his men are up there in age. Im sure they never expected what was going to happen.The letter below is what Jason sent to me.
 
*************
 
Ok, this is my sworn statement that I submitted and swore to. This is about a play by play action of the events of that night. Keep in mind, there were 7 of us and 105 of them.My callsign is Sensei 4, the other trucks were Sinsei 1 and sinsei 3. 3Fury 11 is the higher HQ and 3 Fury 6 is the squadron commander (O-5). It still gives me chills to read it.-----------
 
On the evening of Thursday 11 October 2007 at approximately 1930 hrs, the ABP on the roof noticed a subject moving down towards the South of our position. We took our flashlights, NVG’s and a thermal sight to see what was there. We saw a movement of something but could not positively ID what it was.
 
Around 2000 hrs, I took my blouse off and was preparing to go to bed. We had just made out the night guard roster and were discussing what, if anything should happen. All of a sudden I saw a brilliant flash followed immediately by a large ‘boom’. I felt the building rattle and my chest rattled too. I immediately grabbed my IBA, helmet and M-4 carbine and waited for a quick role call. All were present for role except for 1 man, CPL Thompson.
 
We were trying to find his location when I heard him engage targets with his M2 .50 Cal machine gun on the NW side of Spina Shegha.Once 1SG Beard and I determined his location, we exited the building and maneuvered into our fighting positions. When I was exiting the building I heard bullets whiz by my head. I heard over 7 whizzes.
 
As I was making my way to provide cover fire for more of my men, I remember being knocked down and cutting my leg and knocking off my NVG’s(night vision goggles). I believe it was the back blast from an RPG.
 
I maneuvered my way to a position to provide cover fire for my gunner, SPC Peterson. I was engaging enemy targets to the South where I saw muzzle flashes. After I provided cover fire for SPC Peterson and he made his way to our gun truck, he provided cover fire for me. I made my way to my vehicle and immediately got on the BFT and relayed a message to Lighting Main, the 4-73rd Cav, the 4-73rd Cav TOC and to 3 Fury 6, the 82nd AD commander. I told them that we (Sensei elements) were in contact, heavy contact.
 
I then got out of my vehicle and engaged more enemy targets. This time to the North. After firing another complete magazine at enemy targets, I got back on the BFT, relayed a more detailed message and reloaded a magazine into my weapon. I relayed a message and told them of heavy contact from 3 sides of Spina Shegha. We were receiving fire from the South, North and West. Towards the East was Pakistan and that we were NOT receiving fire from the East.
 
I relayed my grid coordinates, my call sign and frequency. I had 1SG Beard monitor the radio while I got on the BFT and continued to keep higher informed of the situation. I asked for illum rounds and CAS and then got back out and continued to engage enemy targets to our North. During this time, 1SG Beard fired an illum round from his M203 to provide illum.
 
We were able to see 10-15 enemy come down the mountain towards our location. We engaged them.I could see muzzle flashes and told my gunner where I saw the flashes. He could not see them so I told him to fire where my tracer went. I fired a shot and then he engaged the threat with the .50 cal machine gun.
 
I made my way by foot to Sensei 3 and checked on them. I then ran to Sensei 1 on the NW side of the building and checked on them. While doing this, I could see rounds impacting around my feet. I was wearing NVG’s and I had an IR chemlight attached to my helmet. I maneuvered my way to a better fighting position and continued to engage enemy targets.
 
I then made my way back to my vehicle, got inside, passed up another can of .50 cal ammo to my gunner and I got on the BFT to send an ACE and SALUTE reports. I sent them to higher and continued to tell my driver a SITREP.I was outside engaging targets when this time my gunner, SPC Peterson said the threat was to the left (NW side) and we could not see them. He then fired a 6-9 round burst into the position so I engaged the threat with my M-4 carbine while SFC Jerome Flott and 1SG Kenneth Beard also engaged the threat with their M203.
 
1SG Beard was firing SPC Peterson’s weapon to provide more firepower. He was on the NE side of the vehicle and I was on the NW side.I heard over the BFT and radio of CAS assets would be in the area in 10 minutes. I grabbed my interpreter and ran and told the ABP commander that we had CAS coming in and to get all ABP soldiers inside and on the roof of the building. I instructed the ABP commander to NOT fire on aircraft that were in the area and that they were friendly. I then grabbed my interpreter and took him to the vehicle while I went back out and made sure that the ABP was going inside or on the roof. I continued to see muzzle flashes and I returned fire to where I saw flashes.
 
I then made my way back to our truck and then I told the CAS, an A-10 Thunderbolt, call sign Hog 15 our position and told him where contact was coming from and how to mark friendlies. Friendlies were being marked my IR chemlights and anything north of the building was considered hostile forces and to engage any and all targets that were there. He saw our ‘fireworks’ and said that he could not see any enemy targets in the area but could hear radio chatter over his commo and on his government box. After a few minutes, he had to leave the area to refuel.
 
About the time the A-10 had to leave, an AH-64 Apache helicopter, call sign Capone 11 showed up overhead and continued to make a presence and I told him of our positions and how we were marked. He dropped a flare and lit up the area and we continued to engage more enemy targets and informed higher of the situation at hand via BFT.About this time, I got a message from the 4-73rd TOC that a QRF platoon was being sent to help us out. I informed the QRF of our position and told him that the area was considered ‘very hot’. He told me that he was going to use blackout drive and come to our location.
 
I grabbed my interpreter and ran to the ABP commander and told him that we had friendly vehicles coming in the area. The commander also told me that he was running low on ammo. I told him to call BCP 12, roughly 15 minutes away and to bring ammo and more men. I informed Capone 11 of the friendly elements coming into the area. I told him they were driving with white lights on and their ‘whoopee lights’ on top on too. I assured the ABP commander that our CAS would not fire upon the vehicles.
 
Once the ABP reinforcements arrived, I told them, through my interpreter, to distribute the ammo and for the replacements to get on the roof and engage targets as they appeared. The ABP brought 15 men in 3 trucks and left 6 men and a truck there at Spina Shegha and took the other men and 2 trucks back to BCP 12 to defend their position.
 
As I was making my way back to my truck, I heard a call for a medic. One of the ABP had an injury that needed attention. I went to Sensei 3, grabbed the medic, SGT Jones and told him that we had wounded. He immediately grabbed his medical bag and while I continued to engage more targets, I provided cover fire for him to go inside the building. Once he made it to relative safety, I went inside and observed the situation at hand.
 
I took this time to change my magazine for my weapon. I was on my 4th magazine at this time. The ABP soldier had cut his finger and was bleeding. It was a scrape but was bleeding badly. As SGT Jones finished up with him, I told him to run with me and the interpreter to his vehicle and to wait further instructions if we had more wounded that I would come get him. I then ran with my terp back into the building to see if the ABP had any more wounded. They did not. I then ran with my terp to our vehicle and I continued to send up another ACE report. We were black (<25%) of .50 cal ammo, green on everything else and that our vehicles were fully mission capable.
 
About after an hour and 15 minutes of heavy fighting, we called for a cease fire and to listen for a few minutes. We could not hear any more firing. I got on the radio and talked to the other Sensei elements and asked them for a SITREP and ACE report. Once I got this, I sent this information to higher. Capone 11 was still on site and he could not see any more enemy targets. I was tracking our QRF on our BFT and after several attempts to contact them, I got a message through to them and they came to an impassable road and needed our assistance. This was about 0100 on Friday morning, 12 October 2007.
 
I grabbed my terp and told the ABP commander that we needed to go help the QRF. I assured the ABP commander that we were not leaving and that we would be back as soon as we got the QRF and showed them where to come. We found the QRF at their last location which was about 3 klicks away. I linked up with the QRF commander and told him to turn his vehicles around and to follow us back to Spina Shegha. About 1 hour after we left, we returned and I linked up with the ABP commander to see if anything happened. He told me no so I linked up with the QRF commander, Apache 14 and positioned his vehicles and gave him a quick SITREP. He us that he would have his men provide security for our force and that we would not have to worry about guard duty and that his men would provide for us.
 
I went to bed around 0330 and got up at 0600.I was not able to sleep too well.When I got up, I linked up with Apache 14 and asked him if his men were doing a battlefield assessment of the enemies suspected positions. He said that his men were doing this already. I asked him if he found anything and he told me that they found 30-40 dug-in fighting positions with overhead cover. This is why the CAS could not see them. He also found fresh footprints, a small campfire and several blood trails. He also said that the only way we would ever see the fighting positions were to see the muzzle flashes and that they had a clear view of our building.
 
Also during this time, I inspected the building for any signs of battle damage. I found several RPG holes in the walls including one inside the building. This was the first RPG fired and it hit right outside the door of where the ABP(Afghan Border Police) sleep.About an hour later his men returned from the sweep and told us of what they found. I then told Apache 14 that we were fixing to leave and since they were going back to Chawney, we included them in our convoy. We returned to Chawney, then to Gardez without any further incident.

Nude Protesting, Come as You Are...

Posted by Joyanna Adams on Friday, August 01, 2008 11:30:59 PM
Nobody Flashes Anymore!
 
UNLESS of course you just happen to be in the World Naked Bicycle Ride, where you are expected to flash all your privates to save the planet from evil oil.
 
Yeah, that should do it. Evil oil is trembling.
 
You know, they COULD protest pollution with their clothes on riding a bike, but noooooooo.....
 
St. Louis will be holding this prestigious event here this weekend, and they have been announcing the event as if it were a normal thing to come and do....really. Like someone is having a picnic---
 
Let's be frank. While they say this is a way for a bunch of people to gather and protest gasoline prices, the REAL reason this goes on is so mostly gay people can met the man (or woman) of their dreams. This picture was taken in San Fransisco.
 
Why else do they always do this in the "gay" areas of the cities?
 
The one here, will start in a very special park here in St. Louis, called Tower Grove. A place whose park bathrooms are notorious hangouts for the "gays" to meet. It's also the place where most all the gay couples live.
 
Okay....somebody help me out here. What's the thrill with being gay, nude, and riding a bike? Hey, what's the thrill with being NOT gay, nude, and riding a bike?  
 
The paper has also announced that they will arrest people who are nude, but as we see from this picture, unless there is a lot of obvious excitement, these nut jobs will be allowed to "protest" on their merry bikes, for ten miles, while parents will be frantically trying to shield little eyes from looking.
 
Over 70 cities have these nut-cases holding this nude-bike riding. And to make things even worse, it's probably going to become the norm in the immediate future.  Harmless?
 
Gays getting married is one thing...but showing off their mostly ugly nude bodies is just a bit too much.
 
As you can tell by the "Reelect Gore" sign, it might take some nerve to ride a bike nude...
But brains are not a requirement. Hey, that guy is probably not gay....just...just....
Stupid.
 
And the U.N does nothing. (I stole that from Dave Barry...I admit it.) Watch...I'll get arrested for plagarism, and I won't even be nude.
