Healthcare or Taxes; you be the judge

Well lets look at this; Taxation without representation, a bunch of corrupt politicians, a president that is in office illegitimately (not born in the USA)  "Affordable Healthcare? Do you not see the way you are getting screwed? Even if you are getting a "tax return" (think about that, Uncle Sam holding your money with no interest) aren't you getting less? Affordable Healthcare is anything but Affordable.  Remember the Boston Tea Party... Taxation without representation? What if the "representation" is a bunch of corrupt individuals? Just think about that.

I am blaming blogspot on this one

Or maybe I should blame my browser. Been having some trouble with edit and image posting with Firefox and can't even connect to the web with google chrome. So here I am back to the old Internet Explorer, which I detest... with a passion.
I will of course keep trying to get this together, only trouble with Firefox so far seems to be Blogger, Google Chrome is beyond me, I have looked and tried to solve the issues. 
Ok, Chrome issue has been solved, still out there is the Firefox issue with Blogger. This little post script is being done with Blogger, edit post. Using the Google Chrome browser
      Back in the day (always on Wednesday according to Dane Cook) I knew all the ins and outs of computer related problems, set up was a breeze, formatting, not a problem, sometimes the a last ditch effort to solve a problem. Since the advances of technology and it does always advance, I seem to have lost that edge. Of course I do still retain the knowledge of Pirating software and entertainment files, mp3 and Divx and what not. I suppose when time allows, winter time usually, I will read up and get caught up on the Techno- geek stuff again. So until that time the best advise I have is RESTART, the browser or the computer, depending on where in the problem presents itself.


             Your somewhat computer illiterate friend,

Steering Wheels and Skirts



Was told by a friend, a man of course; if it has a steering wheel or in a skirt it means trouble. I will vouch for the steering wheel part, will also... well not going to incriminate myself here, I love my girl friend. Its that dang steering wheeled object. Now last night, well mid-afternoon to most I get in my Green Monster and all is fine. Well almost anyhow. the alternator is going out, the motor runs hot most of the time (according to the gauge on the dash) etc etc etc... well you know the ordeal, used car no payments but repair upon repair. Park said vehicle at home and even went up to the store last night to get groceries, and needed items, all was fine. Get in the Green Monster this morning, after adding water to the radiator, needing to do that for a bit. It took say a 3/4 gallon or so, start it up first to get the "juices flowing" so to speak... sounded loud, obnoxious and... well not being a mechanic, nor mechanically inclined I don't know wtf.. the car just did not sound like it usually does. Oh, did I mention I am in love... girl friend is great :)... but the dang Green Monster, fix one thing and another goes wrong. Alternator is being fixed this weekend, still lots to go but it is better than a car payment.



So my friend at work, a little more inclined to the mechanical stuff tells me it sounds like a slipping belt, well I already know about this, thus the repair on the alternator. I said no, I mean the sound of the engine. He tells me it sounds like an exhaust leak. Well this certainly beats the idea I had which was a cylinder missing or timing jumped. 
       So my boss being the great guy he is lets me pick up the old truck that just sits at the shop so I will get to work tomorrow, and Saturday too, get the car back on Monday and go from there, another chapter in the dealings with The Green Monster.











Oh did I mention, I am in love!
