Reflections

The weekend is over and it's back to the daily grind of my regular job, I work in telecommunications and have been for over 30 years. I have seen a ton of changes,
from two party lines to fiber optics and satellite communications. The money is good but the retirement flag can be seen from where I am standing now and its not a matter of if, but rather when. I sort of look forward to the day when I do not have to get up and work on some computer nerds network that has been down for hours or even day, I know it's a crisis for him, but I still remember when it was all just a simple phone cal that moved business. No digital messaging, no internet, no cell phones, we all moved at a slower pace.....they should have made the movie "Stop the world I want to get off" in these times.

They say it has expanded our world....I think not. When news happens Joe Blow can now post it with video even before some of the biggest news networks get it to you on the TV. It's like life in the fast lane 24 x 7. The one good thing is that we see news in a different light now, sometimes with out the media spin on things or governmental guidance, it's now "you see it You make the call". I always get a kick out of the Presidential speeches on TV, the president talks for 10 minutes and the News media takes 30 minutes to explain what he said. Hey I'm pretty intelligent I heard what the president said. I'm really looking forward to the new elections,
then all these continuos campaign new will be over on done with. I like the way Great Britain does it, they get 3 or 4 month to campaign and its over...I would like to see the bottom line on what all the candidates spent on getting elected spent on campaigning..it must be in the billions. I could never understand why a guy would spend over 100 million dollars to get a job that pays $400,000.00 a year I got the low down on this at About.com under Presidential Pay and Compensation

It's just amazing what they spend to do public service, and make our lives better for us I think one of the biggest helpers is Dick Chenney, he sure helped his friends over at Halliburton. I almost fell off the chair when I found out how much a hot dinner in a Baghdad mess hall is charged the U.S. taxpayer...$65.00 a plate. And anyone who has had army chow will tell you it didn't cost that much to make it. And then the army grunt after dinner sits down on a $300 toilet seat to do you know what....what the government is doing to us.

I know what this got to do with panties.....well it got mine in a bunch...LOL

I promise I will post something on panties tomorrow.
