It hopes to be a great fall and with a little prayer I will stay one step ahead of another bankruptcy. Can’t see myself wanting to do that again. I just set up on Twitter so I guess now that makes me a “twit.” Here is the URL http://twitter.com/pcrxpittsburgh We are going to be doing a lot more with the main pages except it is only me so I have no idea why I continue to say we. Hopefully the spammers will quit leaving junk comments. Someone will actually support my sponsors and I will actually start making some money again. Cheers to all who stop by and do not spam my comments. You are appreciated! Greatly appreciated!

A hearty well wishing to the Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks!

How many times has my cable been out in the past month? Six time, seven counting tonight. I rarely had issues with my service in New Kensington. Monroeville service is out constantly and that is unacceptable! If anyone else can comment on this I would appreciate that. I cannot even get through to customer service to get a credit for not receiving service.

They have always been unreliable even when they were run by the previous company. WTF COMCAST! INVEST IN YOU EQUIPMENT OR CREDIT MY ACCOUNT for your poor business practices!

I – - Me; an individual; a committee of one.

Pledge – - Dedicate all of my worldly goods to give without self-pity.

Allegiance – - My love and my devotion.

To the Flag – - Our standard; Old Glory ; a symbol of Freedom; wherever she waves there is respect, because your loyalty has given her a dignity that shouts, Freedom is everybody’s job.

United – - That means that we have all come together.

States – - Individual communities that have united into forty-eight great states. Forty-eight individual communities with pride and dignity and purpose. All divided with imaginary boundaries, yet united to a common purpose, and that is love for country.

And to the Republic – - Republic–a state in which sovereign power is invested in representatives chosen by the people to govern. And government is the people; and it’s from the people to the leaders, not from the leaders to the people.

For which it stands

One Nation – - One Nation–meaning, so blessed by God.

Indivisible – - Incapable of being divided.

With Liberty – - Which is Freedom; the right of power to live one’s own life, without threats, fear, or some sort of retaliation.

And Justice – - The principle, or qualities, of dealing fairly with others.

For All – - For All–which means, boys and girls, it’s as much your country as it is mine.

And now, boys and girls, let me hear you recite the Pledge of Allegiance: I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands; one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country, and two words have been added to the Pledge of Allegiance: Under God. Wouldn’t it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer, and that would be eliminated from schools, too?

My mortgage company, gone, swallowed up by one of my second least favorite criminal banking organizations Bank of America. My Providian Washington Mutual credit card was swallowed up by my least favorite criminal banking organization Chase. Why are they called Chase? They will chase you to the end of the earth to get any money they can legally or illegally out of you. I had to get government agencies involved to get a fraudulent late fee removed. All they had to do was take it off because it was their mistake but no they wanted to play hard-ass-ball with me so I said fine. I paid them off despite it causing me to fall behind on a few of my other bills. I filed a complaint with the PA State Attorney General and the FTC which were not the correct agencies but they sent my stuff to the right one.

I got several apology letters, several letters begging me not to cancel my account, etc, etc, etc. What does any of this have to do with Obama? His bailout was supposed to stop these banks from going under. Did it help, no not one bit, if anything it may have made it possible for the bigger banks to perform a hostile takeover on the smaller banks with free government money.

Thankfully some years ago some one taught me how to get out of debt! It is not as hard a quitting smoking but that cigarette money paid off a lot of my debt because $5+ a pack per day sure adds up. Have a great day and remember a good rant once in a while keeps you sane!

P.S. Spammers beware, your payback is on the way!

Do you know how a successful magician works? Sleight of hand, he gets you looking one way and BOOM whatever he wanted to disappear has without you so much as catching a glimpse of it.

With all due respect Mr. President which part of the statement “Communism doesn’t work” do you not understand? Socialism does not work! The government is broken, so how in whatever Gods name you worship makes you think you can fix it by yourself?

Change people? You got it! Constitution being stripped right out from under you and you sit there saying to yourself “ Wow ain’t Obama be great” Again I say people “Wake the F**K up before it is too late” Vote your party, but vote the incumbent out. That means the guy that has the job already for the really stupid people out there.

Not Democrat, Not Republican, Not Independent.

It’s called the “PISSED OFF PARTY” (or POP).

This party is dedicated to vote every incumbent out of office in the
next elections.

If you’re Democrat, vote Democrat. Just don’t vote for the incumbent.

If you’re Republican, vote Republican.. Just don’t vote for the incumbent.

We need to send a message to all politicians, that we’re tired of their B.S.

If the country votes out all the incumbents, the new incoming politicians
will get the message..

It’s pretty simple. Nobody needs to change parties and lets face it,
there’s plenty of blame to spread around.

A few good politicians will lose their job but they probably have better
retirement and insurance then 95% of the American public.

You’ve had to struggle for the last 5 years. Some of you have lost your
job and may be working in some other sector just to feed your family.

I guarantee you, none of them will suffer like this country has.

If you like whats going on and think this is a bad idea, delete this.

But if you’re fed up and think this is a good idea, then pass this
E-mail on

If you really think this has legs, then a website and a blog could help get
the word out.

Read this part:

Here’s an irritated Senior!!
This should be read and understood by all Americans
Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!!

To All 535 voting members of the Legislature; it is now official you are
ALL corrupt morons:

a.. The U.S. Post Service was established in 1775. You have had 234
years to get it right and it is broke.

b.. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get
it right and it is broke.

c.. Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it
right and it is broke.

d.. War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it
right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to
“the poor” and they only want more.

e.. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years
to get it right and they are broke.

f.. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it
right and it is broke.

g.. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence
on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24
billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years
to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.

You have FAILED in every “government service” you have shoved down our
throats while overspending our tax dollars -

AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM? IT’S NOT ABOUT THE NEED FOR GOOD HEALTH CARE, IT’S ABOUT TRUSTING THE GOVERNMENT TO RUN IT.

Folks, keep this circulating. It is very well stated. Maybe it will end up in the e-mails of some of our “duly elected’ and their staff (they never read anything) will clue them in on how Americans feel.

Using an insect repellent with deet and make sure to throw your hiking clothes immediately into the laundry can help keep the little buggers off of you. Be careful with deet around small children and make sure you test a small spot on yourself to make sure you are not allergic to it before coating yourself completely and then regretting it.

This just in: Permethrin-based Insect Repellent Clothing that prevents insect bites. This innovation in bug and insect repellent provides the benefits of an insect repellent spray without the constant reapplication, so the number of insect bites is dramatically reduced without ever having to coat (and re-coat) with an insect spray or cream, because the Permethrin is IN the clothing, not on the skin.

The government is supposed to serve the people, not itself. President Obama seems to have his own agenda for health care and damn the people that it is supposed to help. It is not an issue of having health care that you cannot afford and does nothing for you, but providing health care that is affordable and actually provides quality health care.

Talk to anyone that has to deal with military health care. The equipment is outdated, the care is often impersonal and waiting to get in is almost standard. We need to curb wasteful and overpriced health care COSTS and make it so that reasonable health care costs are paid 100%. If you dig deep into health care organizations there are people there that decide what percentage of a bill that is submitted to the insurance they will pay.

If you look at what is happening in Iraq and Afghanistan with the insurgents not allowing the new government to do it’s job and build a new country. A country of CHANGE as it would be. Our own government officials that we put into office are doing the same thing. Fighting amongst themselves over selfish ideologies that are outdated, illegal in some cases, or just plain childish.

So what exactly do we need to do? Speak up! Voice your opinion to your senator and congressperson. Express your displeasure by voting across party lines. My parents were staunch Democrats while I was growing up. Democrats are pro union and my father was a union worker with the local water company. There were a few discussions between us at time concerning this issue. I was in a union that negotiated a pay cut, incited a strike where most of the workers lost their jobs, and never recovered the lost wages from the strike. Hmm, makes perfectly good sense to be pro union, NOT! This is a topic for another day I don’t want to muddy the waters.

Democrats are spenders, Republicans are cost cutters. Republicans are for businesses. Democrats are for the workers. That sounds great on the surface, until you realize that if you subvert the businesses jobs go away. Communism sets rules for the people to all be equal, whether you do a good job or not. You work harder than the next guy; you still get paid the same, counterproductive at best. What is it going to take to get the two parties to work together? Who knows? I sure don’t. I will say that come November I will be voting whoever is in office out. If for no other reason to make a statement that the current situation is unacceptable.
