Folks, regular readers know that I won't promote a business of charity that I haven't done business with or strongly believe in but I think that here's one we can all feel for.
The Southern Christian Sportsmans' Devotional takes in youngsters that have serious illness and gives them the time of their their lives with a Dream Hunt and /or Fishing Trip.
Not only do they host the child but also their folks' as well.
Eric is a regular reader and a member of this fine charity and I thank him for his part in this ministry and for allowing me to post their work on my site. He describes his organization and friends as a bunch of good ol' boys that want to do right. Nothing more, nothing less.
Now, I want you to look at the smile on Lathams' face and tell me that don't make you smile as well. He has a memory that will always bring pride to his heart and a smile to his face no matter how difficult his life becomes or how much pain he endures. And his mama? It's a nice bonus for her love and devotion to her boy as well.
Hey, I know money is tight for all of us but PLEASE, if you can spare a few bucks here and there, kick it their way, no matter how small the donation.
Hey, I'm gonna get the ball rolling with a pledge of at least $20 a month. Can anybody out there match me? Even one person? It'll help. No need to acknowledge, just go to their website, get their address and help a child out.
Thanks,

I need an Okie fix, folks.
I was running kinda sorta early this morning so instead of taking Hwy 132 with traffic into work this morning, I hung a right after I crossed the river and was cruising down Durham Ferry Road, singing along with Drivin' and Cryin', enjoying the morning air and generally just enjoying life. It's not a route I take often but when I do I always wonder why I don't drive it every day.
I was doing about 45 without another car in sight - hell, other than the occasional farmhouse, there were no lights at all - keeping an eye out for critters in the roadway, when all of a sudden I heard a WHACK! on my windshield, about 3 times louder than a pebble bouncing off of it. Now I've never been in a vehicle that's been hit in the windshield by gunfire but that was the first thing that crossed my mind so I hit my high beams, stood on the gas and started weaving erratically from one lane to the other for a couple of miles until I was sure I was clear of the impact zone if it was intentional which I seriously doubt, but who wants to take that chance?
Once I got to work I got out and checked my windshield and bigger than shit there was a small crater about the size of a dime almost dead center - actually a tad low and a couple inches to my right of center. The fucking glass wasn't chipped, it was crystallized and I can actually feel it from the inside.
The only thing I can think of is that I was clipped by a stray round that was almost spent, probably from a coyote, possum or coon hunter. No big deal, shit happens.
So now on top of everything else I can't afford, I have a windshield to replace because once the weather hits 100 or above in a few weeks, that motherfucker will spiderweb like crazy and probably leak if it rains again.
Does anybody have a quick cheap fix that I can try to keep that from happening?
Fuck, my insurance has a $500 deductible and between my regular bills and a much needed tune-up on my truck, that's gonna put me on Top Ramen for the next three months.
Any cheap fixes you folks could give me would be much appreciated. It ain't gotta be permanent (although that would be nice) but if it could just get me through the high heat of summer.......

I know, I'm a puss....
No posts.
I had a bitch of a day, my back hurts, hell, I couldn't even cook dinner after I got in but that was mostly because I stopped and had a few with the boys after work.
Sonofabitch, I almost wish I'd taken Pops' advice and went beyond the 11th grade but I really don't think them college boys are doing a whole lot better right now.
On the good side, CharlieGodammit didn't kill or bite anybody while I was at work today....

Two reporters missing in Syria
LONDON -- International news agency Reuters says two of its journalists have gone missing in Syria.
Reuters said television producer Ayat Basma and cameraman Ezzat Baltaji, both Lebanese nationals, failed to make it to the Lebanese border as planned on Saturday evening, and could not be reached by telephone.
The agency reported Sunday that a senior editor planned to travel to the capital Damascus to speak to Syrian officials.
*****
It never ceases to amaze me that everybody always seems shocked or dismayed when their reporters come up missing in a war zone or an area troubled by unrest.
I mean seriously, you've got a bunch of pissed off and suspicious young men with weapons.......

NATO to assume control over Libya
I'm reading here and there that very shortly the US is going to hand over Operation Bootinyernuts to NATO and we're going to be pretty much done with it.
Excuse me? That sounds all well and good except that the US forces in Europe pretty much are NATO. Hell, I can tell you from experience that at least in West Germany in the 70s and 80s, the US Army and Air Force had a stronger military presence than Germany herself did. It wasn't German aircraft taking off from Rhein Main or Sembach or Spangdalem or Ramstein for CAPs. It wasn't German troops that spent the winters out in the field. It wasn't German forces that went on alert once a month or more. It was NATO (interpet that US) troops.
Now I know there was a big drawdown of troops once the Cold War ended - matter of fact, the kaserne that I was stationed at for 3 wonderful years is now an industrial park - but you can't tell me that the German forces are the main players there now.
So we're going to hand over the reins to NATO. Big fucking deal. I can doubledamn guarantee you that we'll still be flying as many missions then as we are now. Maybe even more because you know that France will find a way to surrender or just quit and somebody will have to take up their slack.
Word games, Obama. Word games.
Fuck you.

I found this article at Sipsey Street Irregulars and thought you might find it interesting.
A favorite pastime of Internet users is to share their location: services like Google Latitude can inform friends when you are nearby; another, Foursquare, has turned reporting these updates into a game.
But as a German Green party politician, Malte Spitz, recently learned, we are already continually being tracked whether we volunteer to be or not. Cellphone companies do not typically divulge how much information they collect, so Mr. Spitz went to court to find out exactly what his cellphone company, Deutsche Telekom, knew about his whereabouts.
The results were astounding. In a six-month period — from Aug 31, 2009, to Feb. 28, 2010, Deutsche Telekom had recorded and saved his longitude and latitude coordinates more than 35,000 times. It traced him from a train on the way to Erlangen at the start through to that last night, when he was home in Berlin.
Go here for the full article
I very seldom keep my cell phone with me (usually only when I'm going back and forth to work) and when I do actually have it with me, most of the time it's either off or on silent - not necessarily because I don't want my whereabouts tracked but because the damn thing is a pain in the ass. I don't need a fucking leash.
I'm serious, I can't tell you how many times I've accidentally left it in my locker at work over the weekend and didn't even realize it until I came back to work the following week.
Hell, even when I do have it with me I won't answer it. Leave a message and I may get back to you.......
Fuck, now that I'm thinking about it, I wonder where that sonofabitch is at?

Dammit, Hire a Vet......
Serving their country may earn military veterans thanks from a grateful nation, but many say that when it comes to landing a job, it isn't opening doors.
Nationwide, veterans face a higher-than- average unemployment rate. While the U.S. unemployment fell to 9 percent for January, the jobless rate for all veterans over the age of 18 was 9.9 percent, and 15.2 percent for those in the service since 2001.
I'm sorry but everytime I see a headline or story like this, it blows my fucking mind.
I cannot believe that business owners aren't putting Vets at the top of the hiring lists.
Call me old fashioned, but goddammit, these kids have put their lives on the line - gave 3 or 4 or more years of their lives for the US - for me and you - years that they will never get back and yet they can't find a job when they get out.
Hey, I know what I'm talking about. When I got out in '81 I walked street after street putting in applications at every fucking business I came across, only to be told that there was nothing for me even though I was a hard charging young ex Buck Sergeant. Not only that but I couldn't even draw unemployment because I had "voluntarily quit the Service" (honorably discharged) yet folks that were kicked out were eligible to draw benefits........
Six months later found me as a bodyguard/driver for a drug dealer.
You gotta do what you gotta do but I fell into the lifestyle of dealing Meth and weed. Hey, it was fun but it wasn't exactly the American dream if you know what I mean......
And so now you know my secret.
It wasn't a job that I'm proud of, not even a life that I reveal to a lot of folks. But fuck, I had to make a living and the job paid well enough to support myself and a cutie and her child, even provided lots of extras.
I did good, made a name for myself and provided for the three of us, but what really pissed me off was that all these motherfuckers that sucked government teats wouldn't hire us that provided those goodies.
Dammit, I wasn't asking for your world, but I sure could've used a decent job.
And now our vets are going through the same shit again.
Brothers and Sisters, if you are in a position to do so, please PLEASE hire a vet even if they're not not completely qualified. Train them if you can. Goddamn it, appreciate the sacrifices that these youngsters have made for us. And please remember that nobody forced them to give 3 or 4 or more years of theyre' lives - they volunteered, each and every motherfucking one of them.

Sissy bitch ass dog - NOT
And I'm sitting here looking at my pink CharlieGodammit snoring in the corner and would be laughing at his sissy ass if I didn't know that the pink in his face and ruff wasn't blood from a wannabe burglar that I couldn't wash out today.
But at least he's home tonight and yeah, he got steak even though I could only afford hamburger for myself.
I love that wild-ass crazy motherfucker.

Any questions?
All my life I've tried to conform to other folks' standards, I've tried to please those around me, I've tried to be somewhat respectable.
I've failed miserably. Seriously, I have.
I can't tell you the shit that I've failed at and I can't tell you the folks that take every motherfucking opportunity to tell me so, not that I give a good goddamn, you motherfuckers.
I've failed at the only marriage I attempted, more relationships that I care to remember, and more hunting seasons that I can count.
But you know what?
FUUUUUUCK YOU. Seriously.
I've realized that I could personally give a flying fuck less what anybody thinks about me.
I could lose my job tomorrow and I'll survive. It'll be hard but I'll make it.
Lose my house? No biggie.
Friends? Those that are true will hang no matter what. If they don't, fuck 'em. The only friend I had that I could seriously trust with my life fucked me when I really needed him. I'll never depend on him again.
Seriously. I'm my own man. I'll live the best I can, I'll do what I have to, and I answer to no motherfucker.
Survival, you know?

So there was a young man shot this weekend by on off-duty officer. The guy had mental issues, was admitted to the local nutter and had escaped, was breaking into homes and scaring folks when he was confronted by the officer.
A sad situation for sure - I'm not making light of the issues at all, believe me.
But here's the photo of the youngster that lost his life.
And here's the photo that will likely be published when I get my ass shot off by the cops:
I like my picture better. At least I'm a real motherfucker......

CharlieGodammit
CharlieGodammit went to Doggie Jail yesterday.
Some sorry motherfucker made the mistake of reaching over his gate and got his shit tore up as a result. This is the second time it's happened.
I came in from work last night and Johnny Law was there in my driveway taking pictures with yellow tape across my driveway. This is generally not a good thing.....
I got out of my truck and asked the the policeman if he had a warrant and if not to get the fuck off my property and he said that it was a crime scene and a warrant wasn't needed.
He told me to calm the fuck down - that he was there to collect evidence and my wolf/dog and me if I gave him a problem both of us would go to jail.
I ain't real stupid and can take a hint.
I invited him inside and listened to what he had to say.
He was real nice. He told me that somebody had reached over CGDs' gate and got chewed upon to the tune of 48 stitches. Because there was an injury involved, he had to take the dog and asked me to control him so there wouldn't be any complications.
Complications? The only complications are gonna be if you mistreat my dog.
When I escorted him out back, CGD jumped up on me (never have been able to break him of that) and then sat like a good boy. He was covered in blood and just prouder than hell, the silly motherfucker. He didn't have enough sense to hide in the neighbors' yard and hide the evidence.
The only thing he did to the stranger (the officer) was to lick his hand.
I presented the Law with his County registration, his Rabies Shot certificate and my dog. God, that hurt.
I was told I could retrieve him in the morning, it was just a formality and if there were any problems I could count on him to testify for CGDs' character.
I was at the pound 2 hours before they opened, me and CGD were hollering at each other long before the staff showed up. I was talking, he was howling and before long we had the entire pound yapping, yippling and barking. It was great.
I ate hamburger today, he had steak.
I love that motherfucker.........

A Baptist Preacher was seated next to a cowboy on a flight to the Texas panhandle.
After the plane took off, the cowboy asked for a glass of Jack Daniels, which was brought and placed before him. The flight attendant then asked the preacher if he would like a drink.
Appalled, the preacher replied, "I'd rather be tied up and taken advantage of by women of ill-repute, than let liquor touch my lips."
The cowboy then handed his drink back to the attendant and said, "Hellfire ma'am, I didn't know we had a choice...."

Obama: Lie, Deny, and Demand Evidence
Obama says he didn’t inform Mexico of U.S. gun smuggling operation because he didn’t know about it
Posted on 03/24/2011 by Richard Dunham, Bureau Chief
Under fire for an operation that allowed smuggling of U.S. weapons across the nation’s border with Mexico, President Obama said in an interview that neither he nor Attorney General Eric Holder authorized the controversial “Operation Fast and Furious.”
The Mexican government has complained that it didn’t know about the U.S. operation that allowed guns to illegally cross the southwestern border so they could track the weapons.
Obama told Univision‘s Jorge Ramos that President Felipe Calderon wasn’t informed of the operation because he — the president of the United States — wasn’t informed either. When asked whether he knew of the weapon smuggling plan, Obama responded that it is “a pretty big government” with “a lot of moving parts.”
The investigation into the program comes after it was connected to two weapons that were found at the scene of a border shootout that killed U.S. Border Patrol agent Brian Terry in December. Likewise, a gun smuggled from the U.S. were used to kill Immigration and Customs Enforcement special agent Jamie Zapata, but it has not been determined if it was part of “Fast and Furious.”
When President Calderon came to visit Washington recently, the two presidents came together on a policy to stop drug and weapon smuggling across the border.
“Our policy is to ram up the interdiction of guns flowing south because that’s contributing to some of the security problems that are taking place in Mexico and what we’re doing is trying to build the kind of cooperation between Mexico and the United States that we haven’t seen before,” Obama told Univision.
The president said his attorney general has been “very clear that our policy is to catch gunrunners and put them into jail.”
The controversial operation was the subject of a CBS News Investigation that reported ATF was allowing traffickers to bring weapons into Mexico in order to track them rather than arresting the traffickers. Obama said Holder has assigned an inspector general to investigate what happened, because he does not know who authorized the operation.
“Letting guns ‘walk’ is not something that is acceptable,” Holder said during a Senate Appropriations Subcommittee hearing. “Guns are different than drugs or money when we are trying to follow their trail. That is not acceptable.”
Holder said he made this clear to attorneys and ATF agents.

Firefox - WTF?
So I went to Firefox at all my readers' advice and promptly lost all my favorites. Yes, I clicked on the link to transfer them but I'll be a muslim camel fucking queer if I can find them.
I have a shitload of right-wing blogs, militia sites, music, coyote hunting shit and history (both US and family) sites saved to favorites on IE and now I'll be fucked if I can find them. It's 1 AM, I've been at this for hours and I'm so fucking pissed that I'm about to shoot something somebody anybody.
Suggestions please before I revert back to IE?

I shouldn't have done this with a buzz
Okay, motherfuckers.
I just switched from IE8 to Firefox and I'm fucking lost.
Shit ain't working like I expect it to, I can't find a godamned thing and I gotta piss.
If you never hear from me again, just remember:
FUCK OBAMA!

Boycott islam
Seriously. Boycott any business that is muslim owned or hires muslim employees.
It's something I do and it's not that fucking hard for you to do. Just ask any business that you patronize if they are muslim owned or if they have any muslim employees. If they do, or if they hesitate in any way, shape, or form to answer your simple question, boycott their ass and tell them why.
Tell them that you will not patronize any business that is owned by or employs anybody that is an enemy of our country and our way of life. Do it politely but adamantly.
Yeah, you might get some shitty comments and you may have to do a minor sacrifice on your end. Big fucking deal.
Hey, I've given up my dentist and my mechanic but it's a no biggie to do my part for my Nation.
It's illegal for an employer to discriminate against anybody because of religion but nobody says that you have to do business with that company.
Fuck 'em if they're not smart enough to get around that.

Mother of the Year
This shit took place in Ceres, just a couple of miles south of here.
That's the kind of trash we have around here - not only does she do this shit but she films it and posts it on Youtube which is how she got busted.
CERES -- Child Protective Services is investigating the Ceres mother who police said not only encouraged her 14-year-old son to fight, but facilitated the altercation.
The fist fight, which occurred earlier this month, was captured on a cell phone video camera. Spouting profanities, Jennifer Zuniga, 33, can be heard repeatedly telling her son “Rito” to beat up the other boy.
The catalyst of the boys’ animosity was “an exchange of stares and derogatory statements” that started at Blaker Kinser Junior High School, according to Ceres Police Sgt. Jose Berber.
Zuniga was arrested on suspicion of child endangerment and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. She is free on $25,000 bail.
