Frida’s Dog Training
Frida just got back from dog training and she is much skinnier than when she left. She came back at about 16 pounds and when she left she was 19 pounds. This is the equivalent of a 190 pound person losing 30 pounds in 8 weeks… weird. I am surprised the trainers didn’t feed her a LOT more.… read more “Frida’s Dog Training”

Coalition Basketball Team Wins in Double Overtime
In one of the lowest scoring games of the year, Coalition’s basketball team won in double overtime. The first quarter ended at 2-2, there was no scoring in the first overtime and we scored the only basket in second overtime to win it. I think the game was 26-24 at the end.
Chase HSA Review – SCAM!!!
I have had a Chase HSA for a year and finally actually looked into what they’ve been doing. They charge me a $2.50 a month fee just for having an account (even though I have a high balance)! They also charged me a $20.00 processing fee for simply taking some of the money out! Chase HSA is a huge ripoff and I strongly recommend you not to use it!… read more “Chase HSA Review – SCAM!!!”
Obama Administration Loses Again
Apparently to make a point about these sequestration cuts, the Obama administration has only two air traffic controllers working right now at Los Angeles International Airport. There are hundreds of flights and tens of thousands of people across America stuck on idling airplanes right now. The Obama administration made a giant mistake by making this a political football.… read more “Obama Administration Loses Again”
Obama Furloughs Air Traffic Controllers And Loses My Support
Obama furloughed air traffic controllers in a politically motivated move that has caused me to lose a great deal of respect for him. He should have made the cuts to social security or homeland security or TSA…. those are all massively bloated bureaucratic agencies. Cutting air traffic controllers will just mess up flights and piss off millions of people.… read more “Obama Furloughs Air Traffic Controllers And Loses My Support”

The last four days spent in Austin Texas have been very interesting and informative. I have learned quote a bit about the city. Here are a few tidbits:
1. People here drink a lot. Half of the city seems to come out to the bars on the weekends and almost everyone I saw as I walked around was drinking.… read more “Austin Texas General Observations”
