I miss this

So, life has changed for me. Different job, different responsibilities. I travel a lot. The hotel in Williston is an absolute dive. Showering barely makes me feel clean after sleeping in the sheets. I'm afraid I'll get a rash that there won't be a cure for.  I get home after driving 1500 miles in a week. I'm exhausted. The only thing I want to do is watch what I've DVR'd, drink some crown and go to bed.  I miss posting.  More than that, I miss reading all of your great posts. I'm in a horrible rut. I've become a selfish prick. Not caring if anyone reads this anymore, but still wondering why no one does.

I am have a great time with the new job. But the energy to post isn't there.

I think of all these great posts when I'm driving. About how much Obama is taking on us a path to self destruction and laughing his ass off all the way. How complacent America has become. How no one cares anymore. Yet when I get to my destination, I say nothing.

I don't read anything except the local paper. It infuriates me. Yet I don't post. I don't write letters to the editor. Probably because if you use the word "cocksucker" it won't be printed. But it looses it's context without it. Yes, I'm sure I can find a different word, but nothing would make the point as well.

I miss blogging. I miss all of you who I've never met but still read this crap.

I hate that the general public can't do math. Simple math.


100,000,000 people in America don't pay taxes. If they paid one dollar, that would me $100,000,000. If they paid $10 each it would be a billion dollars. If they paid $100 each it would be 10 billion dollars. Hey, I don't give a rats ass if you are making 35k a year. Thats $8.34 a month. If you can't afford that, then let me see how you are spending your money. I can save you that. Trust me.

Our current president can't add. He's a total empty suit, when he wears one. He has crippled this great nation.He upped the food stamp entilement program from $35k to $50k. I'm sorry. If you're a family of four and can't make it on 50k a year QUIT SMOKING.

I'm on a rant in case you can't tell.

Montana State is the second ranked football team in FCS. We have Weber State tomorrow. I won't be there, but the Cats will crush them and then humiliate the griz on November 19th. My sister Mary is flying out for her first Cat/griz game. It will be epic.

God bless you. You merry band of malcontents. Love you all.

Safe Journeys,

Chip

Hey Madman,
Good rant. Like you I wonder when Americans will push the off button, leap from their recliners, and stand up to be counted.

Did you hear, this week Congress had to pass a bill to confirm America's motto is "In God We Trust"? Obama was opposed to this bill because ....well he thinks we should place our trust in him.

There is a word for that...
but
it is unpublishable .....
although not unthinkable.

Get out of your rut!
Take a laptop to the cheap motel and reclaim your right to be something besides a worker.

Haiku Monday is at Trollstroll.blogspot.com

welcome home
:-)

Hi MRM! Sounds like the job is going well. Great to hear from you! Keep the rants coming. I'm with Fishy, get some blog app for your phone or sumthin!

I totally understand. You have no idea. You are missed. This is a great post because you POSTED things you were thinking about/etc.

Ruts are boring. Don't be boring.

You can get out of your rut and you have a whole community that has faith in you.

Start with a Haiku. :-)

Fishy,
Great words but I wasn't ranting. Use the word. It's America.

I need to haiku.

Pam,
Great words but I wasn't ranting.
I am going to contact IT to link my blackberry so I can post.

Boxer,
Thanks for saying I wasn't ranting. And for the encouragement.

Wingaling (Honey)
I would love it if you came to Montana. Thanks for the kind words about my speech. Your comments were the best and most heartfelt.

You should get a netbook. They are small, inexpensive and perfect for what you do. There are also a variety of digital voice recorders that you can get so you won't forget your next topic while on the road.

Crackberry, really? I know you like 80s Music, but an 80s cellphone is going TOO FAR! You need an iPhone, then you could just tell Siri to post for you :) Good to hear from you! Go CATS!
