MIRACLES IN ONE MANS LIFE 2

TRUE STORY

A MIRACLE IN MY YOUTH

Ok I Was About 28 Or So I Have A Small Contracting Business Cleaning Movie Theaters I Made Pretty Good Money Too. But The Problem Was That For 5 Years I Did Not Have A Day Off. One Day One Of My Little Brothers Called Me And Asked What I Was Doing For A Living, And I Told Him.

Spooky Told Me That He Was Working For A Redi Mix Company Called Calmat And He Was Driving A Mixer Delivering Concrete And Making Awesome Money Doing It And That I Needed To Get A Job There. The Problem Is I Dropped Out Of School To Be In A Band And Never Got My High School Diploma And To Get This Job I Needed Two Things, A GED And A Commercial License.

The Company Made A Grave Mistake Telling Me That I Can’t Have That Job. No One Tells Me That I Can’t Have Something, So Every Day After I Was Done Cleaning The Theaters I Went To GED School And Learned All That I Needed To Learn To Take The Test. About 6 Months Went By And I Took The Test And Past With A Score High Enough To Get Into ASU If I Chose To Do That.

Now I Needed To Take The CDL Test So I Got The CDL Book Studied My Arse Off And In Three Months Took The Test And Passes With A 98%

I Then Went Back To The Union Hall And Applied For The Driving Job. I Was Given An Interview There Were 12 People In That Office That Day For An Interview And They Were Only Going To Hire 2 People That Day.

And Of Course I Got The Job. I Trained For About Two Weeks Learning Everything I Needed To Learn To Drive A Mixer Safely.

I Was Put With A Driver Trainer For About 3 Weeks Then They Gave Me My Own Mixer. Now Here Is Where My Life Almost Ended. I Was Driving Down 24^th Street Heading To A Job. Ok Wait A Min Let Me Set This Up A Bit More. The Mixer I’m Driving Has What We Like To Call Balloon Tires On The Back Which Mean I Have Only Four Tire In The Back Instead Of 8. This Mixer Also Has A Hard Tail Suspension So This Truck Bounces All Over The Place When You Hit A Bump.

Ok I Was Driving Down 24^th Street And I Hit A Set Of Real Old Railroad Tracks At About 45 Miles An Hour When I Did This The Truck Began To Bounce All Over The Road Now Remember I Am Loaded With 9 Yards Of Concrete At About 3.7 To 4 Thousand Pounds A Yard. Now My Truck Is Bouncing Uncontrollably And The Truck Starts To Tip Over I’m Riding On The Driver’s Side Wheels And It Is Going To Roll Over. There Was A Median In The Middle Of The Road That Had Landscaping With Trees And Shrubs And So Forth. The Truck Is Rolling Over And Just Then The Drum Of The Truck, (This Is What Holds The Concrete) Smacks A Very Big Palm Tree And Knocks The Truck Back Strait Again. I Regain Control Of The Truck Pull Over Check My Shorts And Continued To The Job. Now I Don’t Know How It Happened But If I Was In The Right Lane This Truck Would Have Flipped Over And I Could Have Been Seriously Hurt Or Even Killed. But Luck Would Have It The Palm Tree Was Right Where I Needed It At That Moment To Knock The Truck Back Strait Again. And I Thanked The Good Lord For Putting It There.

What Happened To My United States

I got a lump in my throat when I read this. I "grew up" thinking: patriotism, it is the AMERICAN way! I am glad to see that somebody saved these posters. The statement at the end says it all!

 

~ These were our parents ~ 
What in God's name have we let happen?
I guess we are the last generation to see, or even remember anything like these !   Whatever happened?
Political correctness (or "re-education") happened, Lack of God's name happened, Lack of personal responsibility happened, Lack of personal integrity and honesty happened, Lack of respect and loyalty to our country happened, Lack of being an American happened.
Did all of these things die along with common sense?  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I for one am still proud to be an American!

Obama says no to the picture

   

Obama says he is not going to release the Osama death photo because he says it would be a security risk. That’s a bunch of bull shit he could have the other people in the photo grafted out hell he can use the same guys that doctored his birth certificate to do it. Obama is a dictator that has no balls. Get this he also says he don’t want this to be some kind of trophy. WHAT !!! is he a nut it is a trophy that son of bitch killed thousands of people I want to see that dead piece of shit. I am an American I ask, you do, that’s the way it should be you dork. You work for me show me that damn photos.

My take on Donald trump for president.


We have an election coming up for the president of the United States and there are going to be a few candidates running but there is only one that I am interested in and that is Donald trump. 

Now you may ask your self, why does this guy want Donald trump to be president? well. There are only a select few reasons for my wanting him in the presidential seat and those reasons are, and this is a one major one. This guy has a set of nuts which none of the other candidates have, and that is what we need in the office of the presidency. Donald trump is not a politician. Politicians are liars and wool pullers. He is a man of massive influence and that is for sure. This guy knows many successful business men that can get this country back on track.

Now he has said many things to date that have enraged many people and that’s for sure. One of the things he has said is that he is going to take over the Iraqi oil fields. Now we all know that in this politically correct world that we currently live it that is not going to go over well we will not be supported by any country if we do this and I don’t care. We have been called wimps and pussies for to long its time we stand up and kick some ass.

We need to get our name back, and that is my first point. Donald trump will start making all these countries that want our help to start paying for the services that we do. And that alone will start paying off our national dept. he talks about china and how they are unfairly trading with us and they laugh at us as they do it.

Donald trump has said that he will impose a 25% trading tax for china to start getting them to import more of our goods. This tax will be implemented if they do not.

This man is sick and tired of the way this country has been run and I agree. Its time to stand up, and stop kissing everybody’s ass, and become the super power that we are supposed to be.

How Do You Feel

                        HOW DO YOU FEEL

WE ALL FOR THE MOST PART, I FEEL LIKE THIS ANY WAY, IS WALK THROUGH LIFE IN A NUMB TYPE WAY, WHAT I MEAN IS WE WAKE UP DO OUR DAILY ROUTINE SHOWER SHAVE ECT. THEN WE GO TO WORK AND FOR MOST OF US ITS NOT A VARY GOOD PAY CHECK AT ALL. SO IF AFTER ALL THE BILLS ARE PAID SOME OF US MIGHT GO OUT ON THE WEEK ENDS AND SPEND TIME WITH FAMILY AND LOVED ONES.

THEN IT’S BACK TO THE SAME OLE STORY ALL OVER AGAIN.

I HAVE ASKED MY SELF MORE TIMES THEN I CAN COUNT, IS THERE ANYTHING MORE THAN JUST THIS?

I CURRENTLY OWN A FAILING BUSINESS AND I GO TO SCHOOL FULL TIME TO GET A BETTER JOB AT SOMETHING I DON’T EVEN WANT TO DO.

WHY AM I DOING THIS YOU MIGHT ASK? WELL THE THINGS I AM REAL GOOD AT I CAN’T MAKE MONEY ON BECAUSE OF THE COLLAGE STAMP THAT I DON’T HAVE. YOU SEE I AM A MAN OF MANY TALENTS.

I WRITE MUSIC BY EAR I HAVE OVER 1000 SONGS, I CREATE LOGOS AND I HAVE SOLD MANY, I AM A PHOTOGRAPHER AND I CANT SEEM TO GET ANY THING TO PAY WITH THAT.

MY MAIN REASON FOR WRITING THIS IS TO ASK IF ANYONE KNOWS

A BETTER WAY

. I ALSO AM A RACE CAR DRIVER THAT’S WHAT I DO FOR FUN ON THE WEEKENDS. BUT WITH THIS FAILING BUSINESS I NEED TO FIND SPONSORS AND THERE NOT FALLING OUT OF THE SKY THESE DAYS, THAT’S FOR SURE.

IF ANY ONE READS THIS I COULD USE A TRAILER FOR MY CAR SO I DON’T HAVE TO KEEP RENTING ONE FROM UHAUL MAYBE A BIG STRONG SMALL BLOCK CRATE 350 ENGINE TIRES TRANSMISSIONS ANYTHING WILL HELP.

BUT THE REAL REASON IS I JUST DON’T WANT TO BE DOING THE JOB IM DOING UNTIL I DIE. THIS IS FREAKIN BORING AS HELL.

Early Immigration vs Current Immigration.

    



  Maybe we  should turn to our history books and point out  to people like Mr. Lujan why today's American is  not willing to accept this new kind of immigrant  any longer. Back in 1900 when there was a rush  from all areas of Europe to come to the  United  States , people had to get  off a ship and stand in a long line in  New  York and be  documented.
  

 Some would  even get down on their hands and knees and kiss  the ground. They made a pledge to uphold the  laws and support their new country in good and  bad times. They made learning English a primary  rule in their new American households and some  even changed their names to blend in with their 

new home. 

They had  waved goodbye to their birth place to give their  children a new life and did everything in their  power to help their children assimilate into one  culture. Nothing was handed to them. No free  lunches, no welfare, no labor laws to protect  them. All they had were the skills and  craftsmanship they had brought with them to  trade for a future of  prosperity. 

 
Most of  their children came of age when World War II  broke out. My father fought alongside men whose  parents had come straight over from  Germany ,  Italy ,  France and  Japan  . None of these 1st generation Americans ever  gave any thought about what country their  parents had come from. They were Americans  fighting Hitler, Mussolini and the Emperor of  Japan. They were defending the  United States of  America as one  people. 

  
  When we  liberated France  , no one in those villages were looking for the  French American, the German American or the  Irish American. The people of  France  saw only Americans. And we carried one flag that  represented one country. Not one of those  immigrant sons would have thought about picking  up another country's flag and waving it to  represent who they were. It would have been a  disgrace to their parents who had sacrificed so  much to be here. These immigrants truly knew  what it meant to be an American. They stirred  the melting pot into one red, white and blue  bowl. 

  
  And here  we are with a new kind of immigrant who wants  the same rights and privileges. Only they want  to achieve it by playing with a different set of  rules, one that includes the entitlement card  and a guarantee of being faithful to their  mother country. I'm sorry, that's not what being  an American is all about. I believe that the  immigrants who landed on Ellis Island in the early  1900's deserve better than that for all the  toil, hard work and sacrifice in raising future  generations to create a land that has become a  beacon for those legally searching for a better  life. I think they would be appalled that they  are being used as an example by those waving  foreign country flags. 

  And for  that suggestion about taking down the Statue of  Liberty, it happens to mean a lot to the  citizens who are voting on the immigration bill.  I wouldn't start talking about dismantling the  United  States just  yet.
