CPS...what a crock

A few weeks ago, one of my friends that is a devoted mother had her children taken from her by the CPS....why? Well it seems like the husband is a marijuana user but he is 100% legal he has some kind of chronic pain somewhere or glaucoma or whatever, the police burst into their house and took him into custody and he was for 3 days chained to something I think the floor and no charges or records that he was in custody ever appear so legally he was not there .... the mean time the mother took off to some relatives home with the children so the CPS went to a judge and told him that the children were in danger and to sign to get them into the system, so he did and they told her bring them back so we can take them or you will be charge with kidnapping of her own children but now she has no rights, the aunt was gonna take them to Germany but now she don't want anything to do with them since the charges that supposedly her husband faces ...what I didn't know and I was told is that the CPS person make a cash bonus for every blond blue eye baby they can get in the system and on top of that the same type of children is well sought by the CPS to put into the system not blacks, not yellow, not reds, just your regular Anglo looking kid .... now she has some kind of visitations and that I guess are supervised visits and then she can not get her kids until probably next year .... she has done nothing but work and go to school and her husband is going into the ministry ... I am telling you only in USA we see stuff like this ....

All in a Day's work ....

When......I was covering the shift for someone in my crew at a gas station I used to managed,  on 13 Mile and John R in Madison Heights, MI, a couple of my customers where there shooting the breeze with me telling me about their day's labor ...
When this car a late model sedan stopped at the pump, I looked out and authorized the sale ...this lady got out and stood in there looking confused, after a few minutes, she turn and started to walk to the store, she was this beautiful  BLONDE, blue eye bomb shell, she looked so beautiful in her black dress, and heels ..... the guys stopped talking and stared at her in awe.... their mouths dropped open almost hitting the floor, when she open the store front door, she asked "Excuse me do you have unleaded gasoline, because my car only takes unleaded and your pump says NO LEAD".
I smile and told her yes, unleaded - no lead is the same, she then looked out and she said, "Yes it says unleaded in my car, so it only takes unleaded".....I tried explaining to her that NO LEAD and UNLEADED is the same thing .....to this she smile and looked at me.... "Right so you don't have unleaded gasoline, because your pump just says No lead"
The guys ran to the back of the store and died laughing, I tried very hard not to laugh and told her with a broad smile,  "Oh well if you get on your car and take 13 mile to Dequindre there is a gas station in the corner that has unleaded gasoline" she thank me, got in her car and left happily to the next gas station in search of unleaded gasoline .....
TRUE STORY (1993)

Wishing to see the future...

In many ways I will like to see the future, because I have two gorgeous grand children, and I will like to see if they are happy, and successful in their lives, but in many ways I don't really want to see what is in store for the future, with the way the world is going we might have to go back to basics like the founders of this country did, and the hippies, yes they also grew their own vegetables, and spices, and of course canavis indica but hey they even have goats and chickens......

My grandson is 15 and he is in the dangerous age of the "le' amour", and like many people might not even choose wisely and get stuck with the bottom of the barrel....lets hope for making it better...

I so happen to like his now girlfriend she is a sweet kid and makes me laugh, and she told me that if the grades are not high she can't see my grandson which made me happy because now I know they both will really put energy into the school year, that is a relieve ......

My granddaughter is 2 soon to be 3 and she is a handful, she takes the phone and talks to it and then turns to me and puts her finger to her lips and tells me "shhhh shhhh!!" that is so cute but we can't laugh, she also tells anyone that is bothering her "go to your room", she is in the age of listen to me, look at me, and all that cuteness, I think I will have my friend make me some bows for her....

Well I wonder what this day will bring at the end .....

There is always rainy days....

So my day yesterday was not so bright, it was in fact gloomy and then I come to find out a whole bunch of family members have misfortunes and all of a sudden my grumpy for nothing day, took a new perspective.....

My cousin's shop was broken into and they took money, didn't disturb anything but that person knew where that money was ....but I am very thankful that my cousins neither one of them got hurt, or worse

My other cousin's husband is sick very sick he has cirrhosis of the liver and with the treatment he is gotten anemic and there for he is very weak, maybe they will discover a new medicine that will help him get better he is a painter and his art is so inspiring, I hope that he will recover soon, and yet another cousin's husband was diagnosed with cancer about 10 yrs ago and now the cancer metastasized to the liver and bones is all over his body ...he might not see Christmas....

Today I wonder what kinda day I will have..... no that anyone is reading this but me hahaha

I hate days like this .....

Today is a day of dumpiness .... I hate days like this because I can find over a million things wrong with me and my surroundings, like I am to fat or to lazy or to miserable or to old or to short or to mad .... and the list keeps growing from there ..... how do you deal with a day like this..... help!!!

What about this WAR....

To me war is a way for a Country to take control of another, it has been like that from the beginning and is not about to change.

But what are we really doing in Iraq and Afghanistan?.... that is a war where we have no friendlies no allies, nothing THEY HATE US .... totally!!

There is so much that is going on over there and very little that we know here, do we care? The people that has no one in the arm forces, do you care? To me I care a lot about it because, we are losing precious young women and men, that are the going or should be the pillars of our society and they are gone, and the one that we get back they are so royally screw up that they are committing murder, and mayhem in here in their land, they come back they don't have a job or might had one before they left but now they don't have one, we are not able to take care of them they got no benefits, some have no home, they are socially challenged to lead a normal life, like they did before they join and got deployed....

Are we able to do something for them?... I think we can but we as individuals don't have the resources needed to do something like that. I think that our military should prepare them better in the sense that they are going to see carnage they are going to see their friends (family) blown up to pieces, to see them get shot and to be in a sea of red blood.....

Our military just trains them to shoot, to cover their platoon, to convey over the radio, to follow orders, to put a mask in case of a gas attack, but are they train to deal with the horrors of war? No absolutely not, I think we should be building better killing machines that what we are building not weapons.... our soldiers they need to be better equip to deal with what they are going to see.... ambushes are a daily routine to this people, road side bombs, IEDs and they are so blindly dedicated like the KAMIKAZE pilots of Japan, and we are not prepared to deal with that, the way I see it I will shoot you before you shoot me, in war is you or me and I love me to be alive.....

Do we remember Vietnam we put all kinds of walls and memorials and more but our Vietnam Vets are dying and now we have a new wave the Vietnam Vets were not prepare to what they saw and lived, they kept them as slaves if capture but in this war they are killing them on spot, no POW only MIAs or kills, also in Vietnam the children and women had bombs strapped to themselves so they can take the caring soldier that tried to protect that child or woman and blow them all as many as they could, they had little children with rifles, to snipe our men, and guess what .... is the same thing in here also, but they took it a step above that if our men see a dead American soldier on the road, what do they do? Try to take the body so the loved ones can bury that soldier, right? But now those bodies are booby trap now they are connected to bombs ... so what to do, what to do? I will say take the tags and leave or detonate the body from afar and then take the pieces the tags and then leave (if there is anything left) sounds cruel but is the only way that more of our soldiers come back alive....

But then again we need to prepare them for the carnage, how come they can watch Rob Zombie movies and not get all freaked out? But see it in a screen is different than in person right? But we do need to get them to see all that and stay focus and stay mentally fit, so how? How about intense training of ...."You have to come back alive".... they are the enemy kill as many as you can men, women and children, don't care IS WAR.... the name of the game in war is take the land and submit the enemy or kill them ALL .....

Then we have the soldiers that are been prosecuted by the military because they follow orders of take them down, to take whatever is necessary for our posts and our advantage and in the mess of it all some civilians got killed .... oh well is WAR .... and they are called casualties of WAR. I know that no one that can do something about this trials, and I know that no one will ever read this blogs or maybe a couple or just me, so I guess is just a big nothing ..... but I wish we could do something for our arm forces personnel. something so they can have the knowledge that few get and if anyone of you ever seen "Home of the Brave" the movie is not to bad, but it made me angry for the soldiers in that movie are like in real life not prepare to act, to do, to follow, and when they came home they felt displayed like they didn't belong in here anymore, and one did something that made sense when he wrote a letter to his parents .... "I am going back to help them not to go through what I went through to teach them to stay alive and come back home to their families" .....

We need the strong to keep the others strong and we need the weak to get strong....
