I don't normally do this but.

I'm sick of politics. Done. Kaput. Fin. Oh I'll vote, not that it'll matter (the electoral college will take care of actually electing the new president), I'm going to vote mainly so I can complain.

First let me say that I love this country. If asked I would die for it.

Now why am I on this rant? Well, while in D.C. I picked up a copy of our constitution. Noe I've had copies of it before but never actually read it. Well now that I have WOW! Where have we gone! I mean the judicial system is making laws, the senate is basically just taking care of themselves (you know not really doing stuff just giving each other raises yada yada yada), oh and the Executive branch is pretty much running the show.

I'm just done. All this He said she said B.S. is really starting to piss me off.

Here's my solution to the whole election thing and probably a lot of other things too.....

Abolish the electoral college and give the open positions to people straight out of the phone book. In other words the COMMON MAN. You know the guy who just works all day and worries about things like feeding they're families, and getting health care for their kids. Not treated like gold, people of power and money.

So yeah I'll vote but like I said, only so I can continue to complain. As for who I'll vote for.... I haven't really made up my mind yet....

Long time No type

Lots have happened since last I've blogged. We went to Virginia on vacation. It was nice we went to Washington D.C., got to see the White House, the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial and the WWII Memorial. We also got to go to Jamestown, the first English settlement in America. The highlight for me was going to the National Air and Space museum. I got to see the Space Shuttle Enterprise! It's a lot bigger than it looks.


Let's see I got a new bike. It's a full suspension mountain bike, a mongoose. I'm trying to get the gear to stop making noise as I pedal. I'm going to start riding to work again. It's fun. Plus I really do need to lose some weight.

I've also started writing a comic book. Hopefully the first of many.

Hmmm.... Oh and I've gotten into papercrafting. Basicly it's model making where you print off the models on the computer and put them together. I'm working on a Samus Aran model. The bounty hunter in the video game Metroid.

Well just a quick update for now.

Goodnight!

That is The Question?

It's been a while since I've posted. Let's see....

I'm in the process of writing a comic book and a zombie book. I'm only actually writing one while I'm researching the other.

Also I just finished reading DC comic's Infinite Crisis and "52". Amazingly well written series. I've come out of with a new 'nother favorite comic book character. The Question? It was kind of a bummer that in "52" Vic Sage dies and is replaced with Renee Montoya. Still one of my favorites actually my favorite female super hero!

Here's a fan film about him.



And here's the first in a series



Well Goodnight!

New Fun Blog

OK so Katrina and I got into letterboxing. Don't know what that is? Check it out at letterboxing.org. Well tonight Katrina and I went to Target and I got this! You can't read it but on the box it says "Made with 100% recycled awesome". Yeah it is that cool too. So anyway I've decided to put the two together. So I have a project going on right now. Another blog if you will. Called 'Cap in America'. Here's the link. I've only got one post there so far but hopefully this weekend Katrina and I will have our second stamp and Cap will have another post.

Here's some more pictures of Cap.

In other news... I'm excited about Clay coming out to visit next weekend. Were going to have a zombie movie festival! Yeah I know I'm a super nerd.

Anyway

Goodnight.

What a Day!

OK so this weekend we went down to Manteca CA to hang out with Katrina's folks. It was fun. We had a bunch of BBQ's, swam in the in-law's pool and just had a good time. Got to watch some fireworks and hang out with some friend's. On Saturday I shaved my head and got a matching shirt and shorts as Dean my father in law. We looked quite a bit a like. Certainly surprised everyone on Sunday's BBQ.

Anyway it was a struggle for me to get in the swing of things at work today. I'm going to bed early and hopefully that will help.

Here's a funny little video I ran into on youtube.



Goodnight!

Hyperinflation

OK we Americans have no idea what inflation is. Yeah it's bad and getting worse but nothing near as bad as Zimbabwe. A country of billionaires who can't afford soap. Here's a link to an article that I found really informing.

We need to stop complaining about our problems and realize that it could be worse.
