OK Crew members, Here goes the latest report from downtown.
Went to the street fair in town on Saturday. I had a specific job to do and I do believe I did an excellent job. Had to be a street vendor. Needed a monkey. Anyway about noon I was street vending past the Church's booth when the pastor said "one of our little girls just got shot in the eye by a kid with a BB gun." I went just a little berserk took about 5 strides and caught the little punk as he was casually was walking down the street.
I stopped him in exactly the wrong space and loudly yelled at him to put the gun on the ground and to put one knee on the ground. The pastor came up with the little girl and she looked bad. Her face was swollen and her nose was turning an ugly yellow.
i asked the pastor to stay with the shooter and keep the girl there too. I ran down a block and found a nurse practitioner and showed her where to go and then got an off duty cop and the mayor. By the time i got back t the scene the little girl was still there but somehow they let the shooter get away. I heard someone say that he (meaning at me) was blowing it all out of proportion. I then heard the same group call me a tyrant and a racist. Sound familiar.
Well the cop and mayor took down all the information and I was told that they had the kid that did it and they were talking to the Father. I also found out that the mother was there when it happened. That is what our President and his crowd is teaching to our children.
In case you haven't caught it yet the shooter was a young black teenager. And I'm a racist. Oh just so you know, a little girl came up to me and said, "it was an accident." Little girl, when you walk up, stick a gun in some one's face and pull the trigger it is not an accident. It is a cruel viscous act.
The little girl is gonna be OK. The BB was plastic and it just bruised her face. I sent word to her father to be very careful with her. I'm afraid that the shooter or his pal may try some sort of revenge for his embarrassment at getting caught.
Getting bad out here folks.

Mr. Kanye

Mr Kanye, KW, or as your friends like to call you Con. You and your ilk are gonna cause a race war in this country and I don't want that and even though you don't know that neither do you. It could become the thing.

The thing? Yes the thing that brings down this wonderful country of ours. (Ours means yours and mine) (Ours is a pronoun)

I think this is the first time in my writing career which spans weeks that I have used double parenthetical statements back to back. Any English Teachers out there? I'll bet that sentence is a sumbitch to diagram. But I digress (horribly) (Sorry) sumbitch did again.

Maybe 100 years from now if historians are allowed to write they will describe events like the town hall meetings, the statements from some of our politic ans like Nancy Pelosi and Carter (I renounced his Presidency earlier this week) (I now call him Carter) who called me and others like me "Nazi's and Racist". And how you krabbed (a new word I just invented its a combo of Kanye and grabbed)(I like it)
the micro phone from young Taylor Swift.
This incident and your later attempts to persuade others that it was a staged event (this is a shameful attempt to salvage your 5 minutes of fame left)(insert own parenthetical statement here)will cause some stupid asshole to react in some stupid way which will start sumpin real bad.
Seriously Kanye this could happen.

Now Mr. Obama you don't get a pass here. No sir. (notice the uncapitalized S on Sir) (stinging rebuke that)(According to Carter, I'm racist) look look three in a row. I'm gettin good at this.

You said and I quote "A white Cop" blah blah blah blah blah "mistake" I don't remember much of that quote but I'm sure you have tried to pull your foot out on that one. Why didn't you just say Cop instead of a "White Cop?" You also allowed Carter to come out and say that Joe's outburst at your speech was racist.

Mr. Obama, Ms. Pelosi, Ms Barney Frank, Carter and your crowd listen up. Its gettin ugly out here and ugly quick. Don't blame it on Limbaugh, Beck, or Hannity. You've misquoted and lied about what they've said and the liberal media who are no longer reporters (they are the lefts greatest cheerleaders) are falling in line.

When I was a senior in High School, My teacher in World History offered a challenge to the class: Read The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shearer and he would give us an "A" regardless of any of our work through the year. I (being the laziest human being in the school) took him up on the challenge. I read it and gave him verbal reports during the year and he lived up to his part of the bargain.
I read that book, didn't enjoy nor remember most of it, but the one thing I could never understand how he came from the NAZI (National Labor Socialist)party and become a fascist.
I only found out later that this Man, (My Teacher) was a tailgunner on a B17. He flew 25 missions over Germany in 43, 44 and part of 45. I wish I could shake his hand.
Hitler was a socialist. Murdering all of those Jews was for the "common good"
I figured this one out eventually. Took me a while. When he came to power he used the concept of Cooperation to make sure his power was ultimate. It worked for 12 years. He died like a rat in a cellar (May he rot in hell)(along with any stupid racist redneck who can't read much less can't understand a history book)

Anyway Kanye shut up sit down and enjoy the ride in America. Your ilk should be in the back of a bus. (misquote me on that Nancy)(bitch)

Late of the 17th Light. (Queens Own)

I Think We are winning, but its no time to ease up.

Three months ago I was worried, Two months ago scared. One month ago, I was expecting the black copters to come circling around. We are winning and winning big but it ain't no time to quit. The fat lady ain't sung yet but I think way off in the distance i hear her warming up. Warning Warning!!No time to let up. Time to bear down. Acorn is not dead, not even dying. Keep up the great work.

I'm so proud of my coal industry in putting on the "Friends of America" rally in Logan on Labor Day. I'm so proud of every West by God Virginian, every Tennessean, every Virginian and ever Kentuckian there. And to those of you from Ohio: Could you pull over to the right hand lane when on the interstate? Thank you.
Anyway.

News on the home front ain't so very good. Stress and pressure over some paper work on Saturday without time to eat neither breakfast nor lunch caused some chest pains. I went to the emergency room and ended up at Hospital for observation overnight. If you read a recent post you will remember me being upset with people in a small room,right? Same deal in the Emergency Room and I was fed up. This gyno american (woman) asked me while i was strapped to a gurney what was wrong with me. I clenched my teeth and said chest pains. She and her man child then began a discussion to wit: He's never been in ICU (it was an emergency room) His brother had swallowed a squirrel once and had to be put in (or some such) He thought he was feeling well enough to get home.

I asked them to please whisper because i did not want their life history. I did not do this in the kindest way, remember chest pains OK?. He jumped up and ran to the nurse who came in and admonished me. Admonished me and I said OK Maam but as I was leaving I said to them both, "At least I taught you a lesson in manners". Wife was angry.

At the end of the day, I am fine, they could not find anything. I apologized to the nurse and told her the whole story. She said that I was entirely right but she was admonishing me so they would think they won. I just wish I had not mentioned it to my wife.

If you figure out my real name, please let me know; as I said, it ain't over yet but I like our chances

Sincerely

Harry Flashman

Quickee Mart Stop

Today I stopped for Gasoline in the small town in which I live. Got a full tank and walked inside for a cup of Coffee. When I payed for the Joe, the cashier (a female or to be completely pc correct, a gyno american) took my money and said, "Thank You, Baby." I left.

At what point did manners leave town? I'm not this lady's "baby', "sweetie", "honey" or ___________(you fill in the blank here). Simply "sir" is far more acceptable to me and probably to Miss Manners. You see I happen to be someone's baby, her honey and her sweetie. If you would see us together you will again see why they call me "Ole Lucky" in town. You would also see that my standards are very high. I wish to keep it this way.

If I say anything to the ladies at Kwikee Mart, they will take offense. Some will start calling me that ole Grouch or some other ubiquitious hackneyed phrase (asshole comes to mind)

So the day continues and I went over to the Doctors office. I'm trying to get rid of some poison ivy. The small waiting room there is divided into two sections and both are crowded. I chose the first room where two groups were talking loudly, Not a whisperer in the crowd. I now know that Group 1 has a huge list of people who they know and which ones are good and which ones are into drugs. I know what was on the last episode of a reality show that i don't watch. The other group includes a woman and her man-child. He thinks golf, tennis, baseball and soccer is boring. She needs to stop at the store for cigs on the way home. (Merit Lights). I moved over to the other side of the waiting room where two babies were crying. The sound was just that better.

What's the answer? Give them a lesson in manners or shut up? Be the asshole or just go about my business? Get it off my chest or let my bp rise after paying over $200.00 per week for gasoline for the past 3 years. You tell me.

I will keep you informed as to my decision

Sincerely

Walking Downtown

I walked through our little town today. If anyone thinks that small towns are dead, they need to come here. There is a Dr.'s office where they turn out prescription medicine on a regular constant endless basis. It is near the local drugstore. It is absolutely appalling the number of people (all chain smoking tattoo sporting teeth lacking folks)waisting their day sitting and standing in line for their meds.

I have no problem with tattoos nor with smoking nor with folks who don't have all their teeth (I missing some myself) but the combination of all three and their apparent lifestyle choices are certainly suspect. Anyway business at these locations are great. There is room for reform here. Not in the Public Option, not with Health Insurance companies. I promise to take a survey of who is paying for these meds one day. It won't be a scientific survey, I will just ask everyone there. I will bet the money hidden in my wallet (from my wife) that 99% of this crowd is on some sort of Gov't plan like workman's comp, ssi, or some other gov't giveaway. (oops showin a little there)

I'm just so proud of all of this commerce in town.

And if you must know, I work 7 days a week normally, but I took a vacation day today in order to work some around the house. My Daddy once told me to do what I like in life and you never go to work. He was right and I do work at what I like. I guess thats why people in town call me Ole Lucky

Friends of America Rally

I just returned from the Friends of America Rally in Logan, WV. 100,000 people or near enough were there. Funny thing though not one of em voted for Borat Obama. Mazin.
Hank, Jr was in concert. Excellent concert. Can't say enough about his music. I didn't care before this event much about Hank Jr. but I was very impressed with his music today. Very impressed. He addressed some of his problems earlier in his career. The man has a huge ego. But he did put on a great show.

Don Blankenship spoke as well. I believe that I was more impressed with Mr. Blankenship than I was with the rest of the speakers. When he gets serious or he gets angry (unlike me) his voice drops a little and he gets very soft spoken. That is an impressive tactic in a speaker. I kinda liked his style. I believed what he said about Global Warming.
I don't believe AL Gore can hold a candle to Don Blankenship in a debate. In fact if Al Gore has his way we will all be holding candles because electricity will be gone. Sorry folks but coal produces 50%+ of all electricity in the US. Why don't you try living with your wife and kids with power less than 50% of the time.

As a side note this blogging thing is one hell of a lot of fun.
I get to say what I think and no one hears me. What a delight.
I would say more but I hear the Black Helicopters circling above me.

The Lockerbie Murderer

I know this was supposed to be about life in the United States but this one time I couldn't help it. I promise never to do this again unless I want to: The Lockerbie Man.

Well, he's gonna die if he's not dead already. But not from Cancer nor any of the related things that his government is going to say. They will kill him, of course and he will be just as dead as Julie Caesar but make no mistake somebody will kill him.

Now I don't know if they will tell him that he's about to die or not. They may just walk into his room, inject some heart stopping solution into his arm and that will be that. Or they may say to him, "your martyrdom is complete, enjoy the virgins." and he'll be gone. Dead. Knocked off. Kaput. Deep sixed. Pushing up daisies.

Then the Libyans will all be wailing and gnashing their teeth over the death of their great hero. The women will make that noise with thir tongues (what is that called?)there will be a great state funeral and MSN, CNN and the rest will all say: "see i tole you he was sick" The Brits and Scots will be relieved and it will all go away; except of course for those families who are still mourning the loss of their loved ones.

Friends and neighbors, I'm no big fan of George W, nor his Dad (i did kinda liked Ronnie Reagan and John Wayne) but if those guys were in office when the plane left Scottish Airspace there would have been a flight of F-15's in trail. The Pilot would've either turned toward the U.S. (probably Langley Air force Base in Va.) or would've figured a way to ditch a thousand pieces of aircraft in the North Sea.

Any way good bye Mr. Lockerbie man. I will not trouble myself with your name, you aren't worth the effort. I fervently hope that the Virgins all appear and then just as in the "Indiana Jones and the Lost Ark" finale, they instantly turn into screaming demons. I'm sure there will be a particular hot spot in Hell for you and you are about to find out thanks to your friends in Libya.

Sincerely

Harry Flashman

(P.s.) if You find out who I am please tell me. You know how paraniod I am.

First Time out the Gate

I am a publisher, a blogger, a writer.

Sounds pretty good, huh? You should try it.

First a little about me. I'm not a learned man with letters, but I'm not ignorant. The difference between me and a lot of folks (I believe) is that they think they're smarter than everybody else while I know I'm not. My punctation is poor, spelling awful, and I am sure that I have dangled a participle occassionally. Fact is I don't know what a participle is but I have heard of them.



I hope that you enjoy my posts and if I could figure a way to get cash from the advertising program they have here (without everybody and the government finding out about it) I would do it in a heartbeat. Don't mistake this statement. I don't have a problem with paying taxes, I just get a little paranoid from time to time about intrusion. Besides I'm loaded.



In my part of the world having a car jacked up out front is normal, having two jacked up on cinder blocks is status. I got three.



Thank you Al Gore for your wonderful invention of the Internet. Lets hope they never turn it off



Sincerely



Harry T. Flashman
