Well, I decided (after stumbling across this while cleaning links) to post again... been forever it seems.
I also deleted some posts about local people who don't matter and really didn't matter back then but I let myself get caught up in the drama and had to blog about them. Now that I don't talk to them, see them or associate in any way with them - life seems so much easier and drama free!!
NEWS:
Got Married! to Tiffany Lynn (Judd) Thompson
Had a little girl named: Rylee Elizabeth Thompson
Will try and update things more as I remember to.

Dear bug eaters,
Shut the fuck up. Just for five fucking minutes.
We know you want to end taxation. We know you don’t care that every reputable economist on the goddamned fucking planet has tried to explain to you inbred sisterfuckers that austerity budgets and tax breaks for billionaires and transnational corporations makes joblessness worse, not better. It makes the recession worse, not better. It makes the deficit worse, not better.
But you don’t care what experts have to say, do you, knuckle-draggers, because all you care about is what makes you feel better. And what makes you feel better, apparently, is waddling up and down the street with powdered wigs and little flags and misspelled signs with pictures of the president wearing a turban, and you think that makes your opinion equal to those of educated experts who do research for a living. Don’t you get how utterly fucking bug-stupid that makes you look?
We know you want to drill for oil in Yellowstone and downtown Detroit and fucking Disneyland and two miles down through the fucking Antarctic ice cap and on Mars and every goddamned place you can think of, until the entire solar system is a polluted piece of steaming shit just like fucking Texas.
We know you email each other ape jokes and watermelon jokes and other racist Ku Klux Klan fucking bullshit–just what, three years?– after screaming TREASON! at anyone who dared disagree with George W. Bush, and two years after deciding to tell everyone you’re not actually Republican because that would mean you voted for the moron who destroyed our economy.
Guess what? The 80 percent of us who think you’re a bunch of fucking retarded clowns are sick and tired of hearing about you. The 80 percent of us who think education is actually a good thing are tired of hearing you pontificate about shit you don’t know because you can barely spell your own names.
Like how you think the Internet is a bunch of fucking tubes.
How you think evolution isn’t real because the other monkeys haven’t evolved into people yet.
How you think we’ll still have roads and courtrooms and jails and people checking for e.coli in your WalMart burger meat without paying any taxes.
How you think it’s okay for you to accuse the president of being Muslim without any evidence—and then act like it’s a bad thing if he WAS a Muslim because you loathsome asswipes judge people by what group they belong to—not by their credentials as individuals.
How you hate Affirmative Action until it’s used to give preferential treatment to white students over students from Asia, or preferential treatment to the underachieving white children of the wealthiest donors. What a fucking bunch of racist hypocrites.
How you think lesbians have taken over the public university system—despite the fact that all the trustees and presidents and football coaches and most of the professors and most of the students and every evil fucker in any position of power happens to be in possession of a snow white penis.
How you think unions are the bullies with all the power and all the money while corporations are the victims with none of the power and none of the money, with no incentive to screw you because for some reason you’d rather pay them double, triple, quadruple for the same fucking services your taxes used to provide before they were used to pay for tax cuts to people who own yachts and jets. You dumb fucking idiots.
How you think some stupid bitch from Alaska actually knows any goddamned fucking thing about Russia just because Alaska is closer to Russia, than say, the Russian embassy in Washington Fucking D.C., you geopolitically-challenged shit-for-brained nine-year-olds! Meanwhile not a single one of you can say a single specific thing about any specific policy this stupid bitch has ever advocated. But you will of course scream at the top of your lungs that calling her bitch is sooooo wrong because Lord knows you’ve never called Hillary the c-word after wiping the beer foam off the ends of your snouts. What a bunch of misogynistic hypocrites.
Fuck you and your own personal fucking “news” channel, where you’re invited to spew your fucktarded bullshit with Glenn Beck and Sean Hannity and the rest of the animal house twenty four hours every fucking merciless day. If they told you the only way to love America was to take a dump on a downtown street corner, you’d be pushing each other out of the way to be first. Did you know they laugh at you behind your backs every two weeks when their seven-figure paychecks arrive, you stupid tools?
Liberal media, huh? One million Latinos march for immigration reform in Los Angeles, but on every donkeypissing television station across America all we see is a tribe of twenty assholes in plaid picketing on a street corner in Arizona because they flunked economics AND history in high school and don’t know the first thing about the Founding Fathers, the Constitution, the history of our court system, OR the history of the last eight goddamned years in this country we love more than you do. Yes, more than you do—because we care enough about it to protect everyone’s freedoms—not just our own. Everyone’s property, not just our own. Everyone’s tax money, not just our own.
What a smarmy drooling circus you fuckers are.
Shut the fuck up for five fucking minutes, just for once. A town hall meeting is not for screamers. No one wants to smell your Cheetos breath from across the room. No one wants to smell the sweat stains under your armpits as you flail, spraying spittle. A town hall meeting is for people to discuss things, not scream. Stop fucking playing the victim when the SEIU dares to use YOUR OWN goddamned town hall tactics against you. Just because most of the rest of us fear all you scary, hooded, screaming, violent bastards doesn’t mean we all have to just sit there and take it. Fuck you. We want you to go away, back to your basements, back to your generators and your canned peas and your mistranslated bibles and your pregnant daughters, waiting for the rapture while you leave the rest of us the fuck alone.
You lost the goddamned fucking presidential election, you bastards.
Go away!

Federal ban on marijuana may end?!
Congressional Bill Link
40th Anniversary of "War on Drugs" Conference Report
LEAP Failed Drug Policy .PDF
Bill being set for to end the federal ban on marijuana. Personally, I think this is a great idea for a few reasons:
#1 - Farmers will be able to grow hemp for production purposes. You can get more usable fiber for clothing, paper, etc out of a acre of hemp than you can out of multiple acres of tree's or production crops. This, and the fact that hemp is not as harmful to the soil - meaning less 'crop rotation' to deal with by leeching the soil.
#2 - People will be able to (on a state by state basis) decide if they want to legalize marijuana sales. Now some unfortunate souls will be stuck in puritanical brain dead areas (hopefully not Indiana) that will refuse to legalize it even though doing so will create revenue, lower prison and law enforcement costs.
#3 - Prison populations will go down DRAMATICALLY. We have the highest rate of incarceration of any country in the world - and of those over 50% are for drug related arrests - and about 75% of those drug related arrests are for simple marijuana charges. If the average prisoner costs $55,000.00 a year to house in prison and we have multiples of millions of prisoners... do some quick math and see what we spend on this ridiculous 'War on Drugs'
#4 - Mexican drug cartels, which are killing our citizens and law enforcement agents on our border make a hell of a lot of money off of simple old marijuana trafficking. So, we legalize it - there is no need to smuggle it anymore... they don't make the money, they look elsewhere for profits and we can narrow the scope of things we have to watch for. Marijuana is easy to grow, you can harvest multiple times a year, and it's an easy 'cash crop'... take away all that ease and simplicity and you make it harder for these drug cartels to get rich.
#5 - People in states without medical marijuana finally have some help in trying to convince their stubborn governors to let dispensaries open! 12 states allow it... are those 12 states the only people with chronic pain conditions? NO!! People in every state have chronic pain, glaucoma, etc... but only residents in 12 states get to enjoy the simple HEALTHY benefits of using marijuana as it has been used for thousands of years - as a medicinal aid!

Prison rape in the US.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prison_rape_in_the_United_States
The United States has many many prisons being run "for profit" as private businesses. This means that to these officials more inmates = more money coming in to them... and for the states that allow these it means less of a strain on their resources AND they can collect taxes paid by the business and it's employees in the form of income taxes.
We allow Federal laws to keep marijuana illegal when we know it is less harmful than alcohol - and less likely to cause related deaths. The Federal government has these laws because police make money from 'drug enforcement' grants, prisons make money by getting more inmates, and the cotton and paper industries make money by the government not allowing farmers to grow hemp to use for paper, clothing, ropes, and multitudes of other items that would be produced faster and cheaper with hemp than with cotton or wood/paper.
The United States has the highest percentage of population incarcerated of ANY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD and the highest percentage of inmates are arrested for........ DRUG OFFENSES. So we get prisons over crowded to maximize profit and over work prison officials. We get prison guards deciding to allow rape and assaults to let the population 'self govern' to keep their jobs easier to do (Why use all the manpower to keep control when you can let the inmates handle small disputes by raping or assaulting each other under 'prison justice'?).
I mean what a shocker... people who broke a law and got caught are now in prison breaking laws? Who would have thought that was possible?! Even bigger shock - people who get 'life sentences' and will never get out of prison anyway are committing heinous acts of violence and rape (even murder) against prisoners who may only have a 1-3 yr sentence for possession or sales of marijuana... and this is 'American Justice' as we allow it?
I would like to take a moment to thank President Richard Nixon for starting this 'war on drugs' and to thank Ronald Reagan for kicking it in the pants and really funding the hell out of it so that it could become the COLOSSAL waste of money that it is today!
While we have daily deaths from drunk driving, alcohol poisonings, and alcohol related incidents... and all of the alcohol fueled rapes, murders and assaults... not one single overdose, driving fatality, rape or assault can be attributed to or be blamed on marijuana (and only marijuana) use... though serious snacking, giggling, poor judgment in music and clothing choices can be. Yes, some murders can be attributed to marijuana - but that is solely because marijuana hes been kept illegal... and therefore a very profitable underground business - so people will use force to keep that business going. You make marijuana legal... violence associated with marijuana goes away - why risk being shot over marijuana when you can go to a corner store and buy a joint?

FCC sells out again!
While surfing my morning news I ran into this... and my heart sank.
Why is it every time anything comes up that would HELP the regular Joe Schmoe on the street we always watch the 'big money' move in and corrupt or destroy it and in the end the general public has to pay more for everything?
Who could possibly think this is a good idea? We are handing over the wireless broadband to AT&T and Verizon and basically saying "Do whatever you want!"
This 'deregulation' and allowing companies to do whatever they feel like is what we just watched happen with the banking system in America. Have we not learned anything from that fiasco?
In a few months/years when people see their internet bills go through the roof - just to enjoy the same bandwidth and freedoms we had until today - everyone is going to start screaming and complaining about this and it will be too late.
Absolutely and unquestionably the WORST thing that has happened since the Patriot Act and I am betting we'll hardly see anything on the news about it at all.

Sports
Read this article today:
http://abcnews.go.com/US/nfl-crackdown-violent-gameplay/story?id=11915214&page=1
All rights reserved to ABC News of course... just in case they freak out.
Which made me think of a few things, I'll just list them as separate issues and let you, the reader, come to your own conclusions.
#1 - You have colleges every year raising tuition and boarding costs and book costs and adding fees "technology fee" "access fee" "pay a fee fee". So you can try and mortgage away your parents life... or ensure you are at least 15 years in debt right out of school from "school loans"... or you learn how to tear a guys limb off and beat him to death with it all while wearing a football helmet and get a FREE RIDE through college?! Hell, show me the limb!
So, now you are in college... taking "Sports Education" or "Physical Therapy" or whatever crap the college has named it's "Lets ease the football jocks through a free Bachelors Degree major" but you have to win games to make the school money right? So... work out a lot, maybe hit a few 'extra' pills or shots to 'help you along'... Whatever it takes to make sure you have that spectacular hit that sends the other guys helmet flying off (with his head still inside) that will get replayed on Sports Center 50-60 times the next week. Those replays garner interest in you and your team... maybe a couple extra TV games on a major broadcaster?
#2 - NFL... Everyone knows just about every player that puts his foot on the playing field during an actual game is likely making at least $1,000,000.00 a year right? If you are a starter... you are definitely making over $5,000,000.00 a year... and some of these guys are making tens of millions a year for being a 'superstar' or 'franchise' player right? Where does this money come from? Fans buy stuff, but advertisers give out HUGE money to make sure their commercials or endorsements are on or around players or during the 'big games' with 'big hitters' and 'big scorers'.
#3 - You get a bunch of overpaid, self indulgent, ego inflated, testosterone laden essentially bullies on a field together and someone is going to have to prove to someone else that their dick is the biggest... and now you get an overly aggressive hit, a 'dirty hit' that is hairline against the rules (but only if your caught) etc...
More rules? Nope... just going to cause games to get longer and longer...
I think you need to suspend players, without a review or appeal... 1 game each time they do an illegal hit. A fine the equivalent to 15 minutes on the field isn't a deterrent, it's a inconvenience... a suspension costing them 1/20 of their salary EACH time they get suspended from a game? Now THAT will make someone think when they see their bottom line at the end of the year!
