The simplified version

     Not wanting this to seem like a political blog, really its not but we need to look at things in a global sense.

Yes, peace and harmony would be great but this is the stuff dreams are made of. We can best explain this in extreme terms... bear with me, or should that be bare? 

       I am going to show you how trickle down economics works...

I'm the King... I have nobles and people under me, and then on the bottom we have the peasants. Now really it all starts at the bottom. The peasants till the ground, do services and labor tasks which provides money they pay me... I then take the money I make and disperse it as I see fit. Now if my peasants did not  make money I in turn do not make money. See it all starts at the top. The more I make the more I have to disperse and eventually it does get to the last guy... we will call him the snow remover (since that is the worst job that exists) The problem with this system is corruption and greed... the more hands the money goes through the greater the risk of losing money to corruption and greed. Its a simplified example to show if the money is not available at the top of course the little guy gets screwed. Just think, if peasants do well King does well and will need to build more castles... this makes for more work and the master builder is making more money now, he needs to hire more builders... who need to hire helpers, who get a little take of the money, and need to feed their families and the grocery store, the clothing mill and all the others in the land are making more money. And in the end the snow remover gets his share because it is a needed task that only occurs in the winter time, and only if it is a bad winter with lots of snow. Now if all the countries are doing well so it goes, the earth is doing well. But say China has a down turn in their economy; It would be a rough Christmas as that is where all the toys come from. Hopefully now you can see why it IS a brotherhood of man. 

sunday 11/1 /09

Well here we are on Sunday morning again. 
Let's see, whats new? well life, each day is a new beginning. After I was in that terrible car crash in 78 I didn't expect to make it to 35 and now at 47 I think I just may last forever, sort of a non biodegradable substance. But that aside, things are good here in Pirates little cubby,  I work, come home and rest etc and start anew in the morning. Well I sit here listening to some electric blues and life is just great!
 Church was great, fit right in with my current situation, as the good in life is worth waiting for and such. Was very motivating if nothing else. I do tend to be a rather impatient man, and need to slow things down just a little. 


Yea did my grocery shopping today, no big deal, very uneventful. 


Well time to get working on that roast, pork sirloin this week, never new you could get sirloin in pork, always thought that was like a beef only cut of meat. Is there also a pork T-bone?


I even called my x wife to wish her a happy birthday, it was like I called her up to tell her that she was ugly, I mean, no response at best. I expected a little heart felt thank you, I lived with her for 10 years and she did mother our child; something had to be right for part of that time!
Well I guess that's why she's my x and not my wife.



Bengals on a bye week, so the games are not that interesting, I would like to see the Eagles game, but its not being televised here, just the more pertinent conference games, like Baltimore and the Indy game.

what a girl

Great news, MsPirate bought herself a laptop, for once she has a brand spankin new computer. Last year at tax time she got a refurbished one and well things didn't work out so well. All six of the USB ports stopped working. I looked searched even formatted and no change, well anyhow she was tired of that clunky desktop anyhow. so MsP is real happy for herself and so am I.

But anyhow, I don't think I posted the one about my computer prob... but it did happen, had a sort of melt down on my Dell and well MsP got me a new tower. I appreciate this so much. Still messing with the way the desktop looks and behaves, but I have never had a person be so nice to me.

Another Dell (I got good use out of my old Dell) great think is its compatible to run Vista, but has xp with a disk to upgrade to Vista.

Well with persistence I did get the network started, my old dell and new dell can talk to each other, I will get back to this in the morning, and then the superbowl, I am pumped (well not really but as long as Pittsburgh loses all will be good.

MsP is layin in bed and needs some company. be back in the morning.

good morning

On a more serious note; I did want to wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season
