5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people, is the world’s largest private employer, and most speak English.
6. Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the world.

This should be read and understood by all Americans Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!!

To the President and all 535 voting members of the Legislature, both parties.

It is now official - you are ALL corrupt morons:

a. The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775.
You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.

b. Social Security was established in 1935.
You have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.

c. Fannie Mae was established in 1938.
You have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke.

d. War on Poverty started in 1964.
You have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to “the poor” and they only want more.

e. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965.
You have had 44 years to get it right and they are broke.

f. Freddie Mac was established in 1970.
You have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.

g. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before.
You had 32 years to get it right and it is an abysmal failure.

!!!You have FAILED !!!  In every “government service” you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars.

AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM ??

YOU THINK YOU CAN RUN THE AUTO INDUSTRY…. THE BANKING SYSTEM?????

MAYBE WE OUGHT TO KICK YOUR EGG-HEAD BUDDY BUMS OUT OF OFFICE AND HIRE WAL-MART TO RUN THE GOVERNMENT???

WAL-MART SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO RUN A BUSINESS…

WHY DON’T YOU GUYS JUST ADMIT IT IS WAY BEYOND YOUR PAY GRADE, AND QUIT?

Keep this circulating. Maybe it will end up in the e-mails of some of our “duly elected’ (they never read anything) and their staff will clue them in on how Americans feel.

“You can’t fix stupid, but you can vote it out.”

Snopes says this is MOSTLY TRUE

I first painted the walls a cream color then used a tobacco colored faux paint on the area above the chair rail. Then I used a Gel Stain, Mahogany 605, for all the wood work. The Gel Stain is made by MINWAX. This product is amazing and very easy to use.

I mounted both my bikes on the wall, the Trek on the North wall and the Specialized Transition on the West wall. I used mounting brackets I purchased from Home Depot. I think they were less than $6 a piece.

Since John Brown is one of the people I admire and I like the John Brown song I used a video I found on youtube.com as the background music for my video. I show part of the John Brown video in the beginning of my video and then I end with a few seconds of the video. You can see the complete video and several more on the website, johnbrownjamboree.com.

Well, I hope you enjoy both videos, mine and the one on John Brown.

I found that blog in PartyBluPrints Blog. The owners of the blog are Dawn Sandomeno and and if you click here you can folllow Dawn’s tweets.

Dawn and Elizabeth’s mission is to help you plan, prepare and throw parties. And if I may, I would like to quote from their blog, “we discovered what we were looking for… a fresh, simple, fun and exciting way to entertain in our homes in a relaxed manner.”

Ok, now why do I like their blog? Let’s start with the header, it’s a refreshing piece of art (I need to work on mine). Here take a look at it.

It was clever to drop the “e” in blue and then write the blog name, PARTYBLUPRINTS as one word, that trains your brain to recognize their web address, which is always written as one word. The subtle differences helps one remember.

Now they took something that normally is very large, the city scape, reduce it and contrast it with the watermelon which in real life is small. You can see the header gives you a sense of their creative mind at work. I don’t know if they created the header or not, but they are using it and that indicates they have a very creative flair. When you write the word for a color then make the word that color your mind will remember the word, clever.

I am going to keep this review short, because I want you to enjoy PARTYBLUPRINTS for yourself.

However, I do want to share a couple more things from PARTYBLUPRINTS . Seeing this image made me want to click on it.

This is a beautiful piece of artwork and it depicts the quality of their work. Their blog is filled with this sort of creative artwork and the information they provides matches the artwork in value and creativity. Here is an example.

Make your party easy as A, B, C!

• Keep Your Guests Comfortable & Clean:

A. Banish the bugs – 1 hour before guests arrive, light bug bomb and citronella candles.
Set out individual bug spray wipes and/or spray for guests’ convenient use.

B. It’s a picnic, so while you’re “roughing” it, offer your guests the opportunity to “wash
up” with wipes and/or hand sanitizer – a must have at a picnic!

C. Give your guests a place to kick back: Provide plenty of clean and comfortable seating
(chairs, blankets, benches, etc.) For the kids: arrange 1 or 2 blankets strictly for
eating (when they’re done or if they spill, simply fold them up and wash them later.
Reserve one blanket for the kids to play and relax after eating. For more.

The other thing I want you to check out is their menu page, you are going to enjoy all the recipes..

In summary, their artwork is beautiful, the layout is easy to follow, there’s a wealth of knowledge and their blog is singularly focused on planning, preparing and throwing parties. PARTYBLUPRINTS is a blog worth your time.
