Do FireWorks Go Boom!!! in the Rain

M5000String.jpgIt’s the 4th of July and it’s kinda raining out side. I’m beginning to wonder, do fire works still go boom in the rain?

A couple of things that I was thinking about last night were Money, America, Capitalism and what if I became Rich… Basically the independence of America has lead to Capitalism and the pursuit of happiness. In the end it seem Money helps.

On the drive back from Nashville Brody and I went through the rich parts of town and looked at some huge houses. I began to wonder what I would do if I became Rich.

Here is my thought…

If I became Rich due to my own work ethic and from the sweat of my brow what would I become? Basically, would I have a huge house with lots of stuff, a nice car, furniture, pictures on the walls and shoes that said, “I paid for these bitches with my die hard American spirit”.

I’m a simple person, I’ve never really had much to speak of and I don’t have any claim to fame. People always told me when I was a kid that some day I’ll get older and I’ll stop wearing clothes that have stains. So far I’ve managed to beat the odds, than again I’m not married or even dating at this point.

I’d like to think if I did become rich you wouldn’t know it. I’ll admit there are a lot of things I’ve always wanted that cost a lot of money, but every time I go to a house where people have obviously spent a shit load of money I feel a little weird. Like I should take my shoes off when I go in side, or how many toys does one person need. Or, are your employee’s doing this well?

Back to the 4th of July… Have fun, be safe and I hope it doesn’t rain on you or me…

Happy Easter

This “Holiday” always seems to confuse me. To me the meaning of Easter is totaly different than the “Holiday” of easter. And with it goes, what day is it on. I get the feeling it has something to do with celestial cycles, or at least something other than our Monthly system.

As i grew up Easter was a normal thing. We did all the regular eastery things like eggs and some candy, the fun things. And my mom always liked to get us something small like a baseball cap or a stuffed animal. (honestly i think if my mom could she would send us kids presents everyday.) Growing up i also remember going to the early morning service, Sunrise service. Sitting in the cold listening to the Pastor talk about Chirsts sacrafice.

Have good day, and think for yourself today.

New Years

Well its 2008. This is my last year in the 20’s so I’m going to try and make it good.

I spent my new years at home watching a Planet of the Apes marathon. As it turns out there are 4 movies that I know of posibley 5. Jenny is out of town and I dont really go out that much. I will tell you this, Oregon has fireworks.

This was my first New Years here in Oregon, even though Ive been here for almost 3yrs. California does not have fireworks like Oregon does. Your can go to Washington around the 4th of july and get just about anything you want. Turns out people saved some for New Years, because last night they were going off for about 45min. It was cool!!

Christmas Vacation Day #5

Day 5 was another day of just sitting around and doing a lot of nothing. It was awsome.

All the kids and everyone but me and my parents and one niece went to boreal for skiing. I didnt go because I didnt want to get hurt, maybe next time. From what I heard they all got up there and then most of the kids just wanted to go home because they didnt want to take the class. In the end they just did it anyway and they all had a blast. Joel came out this morning pulling himself down the hallway, dragging his legs, because he said his legs hurt to baddly to walk. I laughed, he looked like a big worm making his way to the kitchen.

We had spegetti, played taboo (good game) and then hung out for a while. I was in bed for after a while. 10:30, im pansy.
