Thank You, Cynthia
Cynthia, Dennis’s dear mother, has been very generous. She is very skilled at pickle making, and I’ve always enjoyed her creations. This summer however, she had a poor cucumber harvest, and there were to be no pickles. I was crushed. She heard of my disappointment, and endeavored to locate a source of cucumbers. She found a local grower who had produced a bumper crop, so she purchased a quantity, and secretly made a batch of dill pickles. Cynthia then presented me with six mason jars of them, since she knew I enjoyed them so much. They have been pickling in their jars, waiting to be opened for weeks now. Finally I’m beginning to open them up, and savor their goodness.
So a big thanks to Cynthia, Bringer of Pickles!

Sounds delicious! Pickles, beer and ice cream, three of the worlds greatest creations.

This health care reform issue is a ticking time bomb. It amounts to a declaration of war on the American people. It will give this illegitimate government control over the lives of every America citizen. I wouldnt trust a Founding Father with this much power. No way would I accept this damnable travesty from any current leader especially from someone who has demonstrated to America that he cant be trusted with bailouts or appointing unaccountable czars who undermine and destroy the Constitution. Make no mistake about it America, the day has come when domestic enemies are more dangerous than obvious foreign enemies. Ask a combat veteran what you must do when you cant tell the difference between a friend and an enemy. They know. Good intentions get you killed. This health care abomination will destroy America. The stakes are too high to put our trust in those who hide behind false promises and words that are re-defined daily. Americas fate will be made manifest by utterly rejecting this rotting travesty, or by accepting it and welcoming slavery. Choose!

And every single one of their starting pitchers has virtually fell off a cliff in the month of September. Enough was enough.
This is a amazing web site packed with an awful lot of help and advice. The following blog post is my favorite.
This is a great post. I work at a day job that I truly loathe while I am building a very successful web traffic and SEO business. In addition to the concerns listed in the comments I increasingly have trouble finding time to work on my fast growing business. I’m looking at supposed “part-time” options at my high tech handcuff employer but am torn between how I am spending and hating versus enjoying my time…
