Blogiversity...

Seems I missed my blogiversary... I blame it on my back and drugs... Dammit...

18 years ago I started with this post on May 7, 2007.

I'm new to this whole arena, but thought I'd give it a try. I guess I fall in the "silent majority" as we have been deemed, I've never sought publicity, sued anyone for spilling my coffee, sure as hell ain't a movie star; well, you get the drift...

I'm mid-50's have a decent job, two decent kids trying hard to make their own way in the world today, and a lot of frustration with what is happening to the US of A. Being from the South, I hunt, fish, and shoot guns; so that immediately makes me one of those "rabid rednecks" to quote some out there. I did have a pickup, but it's hard to park it where I work, so I drive a Pontiac... sure do miss the truck though... sigh...

As a retired military type, it really hurts to see the crap we are putting the folks in service through today. I lived through that in Vietnam, and I take the time to thank every Soldier, Sailor, Airman or Marine for their service when I get the chance. Most of the kids (I'm Southern so I can say that) are doing the best they can with what they have. They believe in the job they and others are doing in the Sandbox, and are pretty upset by the media coverage they get.

Anyway, I'm going to try this for a while and see what happens... thanks for reading and commenting...
