It was only a 30 second ad or so, but the very end was extremely disturbing and honestly not needed. The commercial spoke of how the economy was not so great, and basically Stein Mart would be a good place to shop during these troubled times. The ending of the ad simply stated something like this"&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;I think Michelle Obama would go in there, I really do…&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Now, there is no need whatsoever for this to be in a retail store ad, so I have decided to write Stein Mart about this ridiculous advertisement. This is what I wrote:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;I am writing about an ad I saw last night on television. It showed a woman speaking about the economy and the great prices that Stein Mart had to offer. At the very end, me and my wife noticed a quick statement, "I think Michelle Obama would go in there, I really do… Stein Mart is a retailer. Not a political group. I normally shop at Stein Mart because of the prices and the selection. However, it doesn't make sense to me, that almost half of the nation didn't vote for President Obama. So, that means, that if every person in America saw that ad, almost half of Americans would not like it, most likely. I am one that did NOT appreciate bringing politics into an advertisement of a retail clothes store. That's exactly the same thing as actors and famous people in Hollywood going out in public and basically making it known as to which candidate they like or dislike. I don't want to know whom these people favor one way or the other. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;In a nutshell, SELL CLOTHES, not politics. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;From now on, I will never shop at Stein Mart again, and my wife will not as well. I will make sure that everyone I know hears about this ad, as it is an utter and complete disgrace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-7896219477480055353?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/7896219477480055353/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=7896219477480055353' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/7896219477480055353'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/7896219477480055353'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2009/03/stein-mart-ad-mentioning-michelle-obama.html' title='STEIN MART AD Mentioning Michelle Obama!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-7423887584489723538</id><published>2009-02-19T04:14:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-19T13:52:28.469-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Socialism is Here!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF FRANCE.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;ONE NATION UNDER THE MESSIAH,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;INDIVISIBLE, WITH WELFARE AND BAILOUTS FOR ALL.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;Sean Hannity&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-7423887584489723538?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/7423887584489723538/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=7423887584489723538' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/7423887584489723538'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/7423887584489723538'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2009/02/socialism-is-here.html' title='Socialism is Here!!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-4316407205621477470</id><published>2009-02-17T12:36:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-17T12:38:16.345-08:00</updated><title type='text'>OBAMA SIGNS THE EUROPEAN SOCIALIST ACT OF 2009!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#3366ff;"&gt;GOODBYE AMERICA!

America, are you happy now?  Like the old saying goes...if you wish hard enough for something, you just might get it.  Well, America, we do have it.  Socialism has officially come to America.  These left wing nuts on Capitol Hill have absolutely  no idea how to stimulate the economy, and the upcoming European Socialist Act of 2009 is a load of garbage.  The only thing this package will do is give every single democrat what they have wanted for years....POWER.  This will not help the middle class, this will not help the average individual who is trying to provide for their families, and this will take years and years to pay back!  Our children, and our children's children, are going to be slaves!  Anyone that backs this, whether Republican or Democrat, is a wacked out nut job!  The only way to help our economy  is get lower taxes and cut them big time.  Don't you idiots on Capitol Hill get it?   Oh, wait a minute, Obama doesnt care and neither do most democrats.  They just want it get passed without it being scrutinized.  Sorry, that ain't happenin!  Oh, and if this stimulus package does get passed, if you think for one second that the economy is bad now, just wait.  Nowhere in the history of the universe has more government worked.

He needed a soundbite to rival JFK's "Ask not what your country…". And unless this reviewer missed it, he failed to coin one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His speech was bland and lacked content and character.

Last night, we went out for a few drinks and sat with our friends.  We noticed this guy, who has been there in the past.  He's always drunk, asking for people to buy him drinks, asking if he can have a cigarette, and of course looking at married women's asses.  Unbelievable. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, last night, he was in there once again doing the same things.  Except this time, he was so drunk that he could hardly sit in his seat without sliding down and almost being parallel to the floor.  It was absolutely amazing.  The managers and bartenders decided that this could become a problem if he did in fact get hurt inside the bar.  So, they decided to call a cab, and carry him outside.  When I mean carry, I mean carry.  He certainly couldn't stand up by himself.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;We stayed inside the bar, and about 15-20 minutes later, we see a cab driving up.  As quickly as we saw the cab arrive, we saw the same cab continue to drive right past the drunk guy who was outside.  It was truly one of the funniest things I have ever seen in my life.  A cab driver didn't want anything to do with this guy!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Finally, another cab came, and picked him up.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;For the record, I don't think I have EVER been that drunk!

I can only blame our government.  And I don't mean George Bush.  I blame the congress and it's many people.  Barney Frank, Dodd, among many others.  The list could really go on and on.  But the democrats have had control of the congress for 2 years and absolutely NOTHING has been done.  So, you can't blame the republicans for what's going on with our economy.  Sorry.  I find it amazing how up until the past 8 months or so, the stock market was still at around 15,000 or so, give or take.  But everyone wants to jump and say it's Bush's fault.  These people that claim this, can't be more wrong.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Now, the stock market, unemployment being at a major high, the big 3 American auto makers , and many other aspects of our market are doing horribly.  You can blame the president-elect Barack Obama for this.  Large businesses, large corporations, small and medium sized business all are always looking into the future in order to make the proper decisions for their companies.  With what Obama has promised during his entire campaign, business owners can only go on what he has verbalized to the American people as to what he is planning to do once in the White House.  This means, raising taxes for the top 5% of Americans.  He was asked about this at his first press conference if he were still going to go through it with the economy the way it is, and he would not answer it.  Rahm Emanuel the following Sunday was asked if Barack still planned to raise capital gains taxes and he gave out the same talking points Obama had been giving for the past 21 months.  Emanuel was asked again the same question, and he threw out the same talking points again.  So, basically, they are not willing to answer the question, and with that, I can only assume as a business owner that they are going to go through with it, considering this is what they've been telling the American people since the beginning of his campaign.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;People are getting out of the stock market, and that's why the market continues to drop, and drop big time.  Americans are scared, as well they should be.  The people that voted this man in are obviously ignorant, as they voted for someone that is totally against what our founding fathers stood for.  I hope the people out there that did vote Obama in are happy with their decision.  I can sit back and laugh!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-1261423890173941598?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/1261423890173941598/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=1261423890173941598' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/1261423890173941598'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/1261423890173941598'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/11/change-is-already-here.html' title='Change is Already Here!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-6771370184917507146</id><published>2008-11-13T04:34:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-13T04:42:47.658-08:00</updated><title type='text'>CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Absolutely hilarious that Obama is now appointing just about every one of the Clinton advisors, etc. to his staff for when he is taking over the presidency of the United States in January.  That's really "change!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Oh, and have you noticed the stock market lately?  It's gone down every day since Obama won the presidency.  Is that just coincidence?  I think not.  People are getting out of the stock market, because of Obama's promise to increase the capital gains taxes on people's investments such as stocks.  And I can't stand the people that say, "well Obama isn't going to do that."  Last Friday at his first press conference, he was asked about it, and never answered the question, but quickly ran off and was out of sight.  Rahm Emanuel was asked as well this past Sunday from George  Stephanopoulos if Obama, with the economy the way it is right now, if he would still raise taxes for the top 5% of people.  He didn't answer the question.  Instead, he gave the same talking points that Mr. Obama has been giving for the past 21 months or so.  George asked Emanuel again, and of course again he gives the same rhetoric answer.  So, that just shows me that Obama has ever intention on raising those taxes.  By the way, the top 5% of Americans pay at least 50% of our taxes in our country, and employee the most jobs in America as well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;The market went down 411 points yesterday.  Yes, that's surely "change" that we need and believe in.  Way to go Obama!  Keep up the great work!!! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-6771370184917507146?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/6771370184917507146/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=6771370184917507146' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/6771370184917507146'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/6771370184917507146'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/11/change-we-can-believe-in.html' title='CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-3915901198814632491</id><published>2008-11-07T04:16:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-11-07T04:20:59.799-08:00</updated><title type='text'>It's Already Started!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;You know, it's amazing ladies and gentleman!  The President-elect has already gone back on his word.  In Obama's victory speech on Tuesday, he mentioned that he would be bi-partisan, and that they would "reach across the aisle" and work with the republicans.  Biden has mentioned this, and so has Nancy Pelosi.  And of course, Harry Reid has now thinking of getting rid of Liebermann.  Why?  Because he supported John Mccain in the election.  Now, where is Obama on this issue?  Why hasn't he stepped up, and defended Joe L?   Sounds so familiar!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Obama has already gone back on what he has said he can promise the American people.  He had said the other night in his victory speech that the change for America might not happen in 1 year, or even 1 term.  He said that the government can't do all of these things for the American people.  Oh really?  But who was the one promising these things?  Barack Obama.

Personally, I felt these were the two worst candidates we as Americans could have chosen.  I originally voted for Mike Huckabee in the primary.  He did not win obviously.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Honestly, I have always thought of every single president that I can remember, whether republican or democrat, as a powerful person.  Someone to look up to, and someone to possibly strive to be like, even if my views differed from theirs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;However, in this case, I am not able to do so.  America has voted, and they have made their choice.  And now, they must live with that choice for 4 years.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;I am truely embarrased that our country has made this choice for our next president.  But it was our choice as a country and our choice alone.  I hope people are happy with their decision.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-5753083578544991721?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/5753083578544991721/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=5753083578544991721' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5753083578544991721'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5753083578544991721'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/11/o-shit.html' title='O-Shit!!!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-8567509998295133165</id><published>2008-10-28T05:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-28T06:01:25.404-07:00</updated><title type='text'>WHY I WOULDN'T VOTE FOR BARACK THE MESSIAH!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;I am writing in response to another jacked up Kool-Aid drinker that commented on Stephanie's website.  This is what this person said:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Karma is a mf!

Ain’t no damn way folks want to take money out of your pocket to make them happy. I know I work my ass off 2 jobs 16-18 hours a day, and boom my job decided to take their company overseas! No one I know is asking for a handout! THEY ARE LOOKING FOR JOBS, TO WORK AND TAKE CARE OF THEIR FAMILIES. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR PARTNA, YOUR TIME IS COMING&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Ok...here we go again.  To the above person, who obviously is too much of a coward to leave their name, I shall respond. &lt;br /&gt;First off, your comment above is actually very typical of the left wing wackos, as you so well showed yourself.  You see...it's so easy to find a liberal because they have no comments on issues of any kind.  They would just rather name call.  I have been known to name call myself, however, I have things to back up my thoughts and ideas.  Obama in 2001 and just recently has said the same thing.  HE DOES WANT TO "SPREAD THE WEALTH."  It can't be argued.  He has said it himself.  He wants to take money out of hardworking individuals and give it to the people behind, alot of those who don't even pay taxes at all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All I can say is this...if the polls are correct, and Barack Obama wins the presidency, which I still do not believe will happen, then I have something to say....If we wake up on Nov 5th and Obama indeed wins, then Jesse Jackson will be celebrating, Reverend Wright will be celebrating,  Father Pfleger will be celebrating,  Lewis Farrakhan will be celebrating,  Bill Ayers will be celebrating,  Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will be celebrating, and Rashid Khalidi will be celebrating. &lt;br /&gt;I could go on and on.  But the bottom line is this.  If I truly believed and agreed with every one of Obama's views on the issues, and I mean every single one...  I STILL WOULDN'T VOTE FOR THIS MAN FOR ONE REASON.  BECAUSE ALL THE PEOPLE THAT I'VE LISTED ABOVE WOULD BE CELEBRATING. AND THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH FOR ME NOT TO VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA.  End of story!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-8567509998295133165?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/8567509998295133165/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=8567509998295133165' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/8567509998295133165'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/8567509998295133165'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/10/why-i-wouldnt-vote-for-barack-messiah.html' title='WHY I WOULDN&apos;T VOTE FOR BARACK THE MESSIAH!!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-2971367129502262346</id><published>2008-10-24T08:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-24T08:29:27.300-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Great Story!

I laughed. Once in the restaurant my server had on a "Obama 08" tie, again I laughed as he had given away his political preference--just imagine the coincidence. When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight. I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside as I 've decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was grateful. At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the actual recipient needed money more. I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in concept than in practical application.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;You can keep your change Senator Obama.

Now, I am always up early, even on the weekend, however Stephanie usually sleeps till around 9am or so. I was up at 6am. We got up early to go to a book signing from Fox and Friends' Steve Doocy. His book had just been released, and I found out that he would be in town for a book signing at 10:30am. When we got there, we had to stand in line to buy the book first. That took about an hour. Then they gave us numbers, and we had to wait for a group of numbers to be called. Once our number had been called, we were then supposed to stand in another line to actually get our book signed. We met some extremely nice people while waiting this morning in line. It was well worth the wait! I have already started to read the book, and I think I can safely say that I will enjoy it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-7768706321224256639?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/7768706321224256639/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=7768706321224256639' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/7768706321224256639'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/7768706321224256639'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/10/steve-doocy-stephanie-steven.html' title='STEVE DOOCY STEPHANIE &amp;

I am going to cancel my subscription. This writer for the AJC wrote an opinion article on Sunday, and compared Sarah Palin's child, who is pregnant, to Britney Spears. Comparing that Palin did not give her children the proper values, etc. Then proceeded to insult Bill O'Reilly from Fox News. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;This is the letter I wrote to the AJC this morning:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;After reading the article that Cynthia Tucker wrote in Sunday's paper, my wife and myself were highly offended that she would even come close to compare Sarah Palin's daughter to Britney Spears. This was ridiculous and disrespectful. I know this is an opinion article, and that's perfectly fine. But, the more and more I read the AJC, the more liberal leaning your paper becomes. I am sick of &lt;em&gt;your&lt;/em&gt; paper along with NBC, ABC, CNN, and MSNBC. You are not giving news...you are giving &lt;em&gt;skewed&lt;/em&gt; news. I get the Wall Street Journal every single day, and never have I felt this same way about reading it.

You know how when you were in grade school or high school? Remember we all had to take those acheivement tests every single year to see if we were all learning at the same pace as the schools wanted us to? Remember that? I do.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;I think a new policy should be put in place with political issues and the voting process. You see..nowhere in the Constitution of The United States of America is there any mention of "voting" being a "right" to Americans. Voting is not a "RIGHT." It's a priviledge. Look at the Constitution from front to back, and you will NEVER see that voting is a RIGHT to ANY American. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;I really do believe that all Americans should have to take a test on the main issues that are important when voting for the President of The United States. If the person passes, then by all means, they should be able to vote. If the person fails...sorry, should have been reading the newspaper or watching the news. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Also, people that are on welfare, should not be able to vote either. Sorry...who the hell do you think they are going to vote for? Of course, they are going to vote for the Democrat. It's plain and simple. To me, that's a skewed vote, and shouldn't be counted. People that are ignorant shouldn't be able to vote. This is the way it should be. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-2152953479195369865?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/2152953479195369865/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=2152953479195369865' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/2152953479195369865'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/2152953479195369865'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/08/test-americans-to-see-if-they-know-what.html' title='TEST AMERICANS TO SEE IF THEY KNOW WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON POLITICALLY!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-1387000015373195303</id><published>2008-08-01T05:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-01T05:31:00.577-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Reasons to NOT vote for Obama!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Truly, I am sick and tired of the mainstream media clinging to Barack Obama on just about every single isssue.  You know, it's amazing that while in Europe Mr. Obama didn't visit the troops in the hospitals.  Instead, he decided to work out in his hotel gym.  Yeah, that makes sense for a possible president of the United States.  But, the media didn't tell you that.  The mainstream media said that they wouldn't LET him see them.  Well, that turned out not to be the truth.  They said he was more than welcome to see the troops, as long as he didn't make it a political thing and didn't bring the media and cameras inside with him.  He instead decided to work out in this hotel gym.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Next, in Berlin.  The mainstream media mentions that 200,000 people showed up to see Barack Obama speak.  Not the case again.  I am sure some of them did.  However, they failed to tell you that there was 2 very famous concert acts performing that same day before Obama was to speak.  Amazing!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Now, the wonderful lyrics and song of the incredible talent of Ludacris.  What the hell is this man thinking by writing and releasing a song such as this.  He should be ashamed of himself.  He's nothing but a thug anyway, and he has absolutely no talent whatsover.  But, I do love the way Senator Obama's campaign staff, not Obama himself, released a statement saying that the lyrics are terrible in so many words, but that he is a talented individual.  I mean, can't Obama just come out and automatically say this is trash.  No, of course not.  If you don't see a pattern with all of the other radical idiots this man has been involved with over the years, you must be a complete moron.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Let's go through the list:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;REVEREND WRIGHT&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;FATHER  PFLEGER&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;WILLIAM AYERS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;LOUIS FARRAKHAN&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;LUDACRIS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;These people not to mention Obama's solution to high gas prices.  His solution...all Americans should inflate their tires and get regular tune-ups on their automobiles.  Haha!  That's the solution from a person that COULD be the next president.  Absolutely amazing.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-1387000015373195303?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/1387000015373195303/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=1387000015373195303' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/1387000015373195303'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/1387000015373195303'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/08/reasons-to-not-vote-for-obama.html' title='Reasons to NOT vote for Obama!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-5896986520538113555</id><published>2008-07-09T04:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-09T04:28:11.759-07:00</updated><title type='text'>OBAMA MANIA!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Well, well....again the media and the American people are going nuts over Barack Obama.  It seems that all these left wing morons want to do is raise taxes.  Mine and your taxes!!  That's right.  Even though Obama has said that he doesn't want to tax anyone that makes $250,000 a year or less, this will absolutely destroy the American economy.  Of course, people think, "well, I don't make $250,000 a year, so I won't be affected."  Not true my friends.  You will certainly be!  You see, the people that make that kind of money are generally your bosses.  That's right...the people you work for.  Well, you know what happens when that comes to pass?  Your bosses will have to start cutting expenses wherever they see fit to do so.  That expense could be YOU.  That's right.  I was listening to Neal Boortz yesterday, and he had a great point.  That expense could be YOUR JOB.  Now, that expense cut may not be your job.  But, it may be time for you to be up for a raise at your place of employment.  Well, you may very well not get one.  Do you think your boss or CEO of your company is going to take a pay cut?  It could happen, but generally the chances of that happening are slim and none.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Barack also, among many other things, wants to raise capital gains taxes.  This can destroy the stock market, and in the process ruin the American economy.  Americans won't want to purchase stock, because the dividends they receive from that very stock, will be taxed at a higher percentage than it currently is.  HIGHER THAN MR. BILL CLINTON!!!  Doesn't make good sense to vote for this man.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do yourself a favor...instead of being one of these Obama Kool-aid drinkers, do some serious research on this man.  I promise...if you think the economy is bad now....just wait.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-5896986520538113555?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/5896986520538113555/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=5896986520538113555' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5896986520538113555'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5896986520538113555'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/07/obama-mania.html' title='OBAMA MANIA!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-1947835394614072127</id><published>2008-06-13T12:09:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-13T12:11:18.732-07:00</updated><title type='text'>DIG NOW PAY LESS</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6633ff;"&gt;Sign this petition to help the United States lower the price of oil!

Friday, we had the greatest time with our friends Kyle and Casey!  Friday afternoon, after we got home from work, we drove over to Kyle and Casey's house to meet.  We had a couple of STIFF drinks, and then Casey hauled us 4 to Alpharetta to see the Eagles at the new Encore Park Ampitheatre!  WHAT A GREAT SHOW!!!  This was truly one of the best concerts I had ever seen!  They played for over 3 hours!!  Hit after hit after hit!  It was amazing!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;Saturday night, we were pretty tired from the night before, so we decided to stay home.  I cooked dinner, and then we watched a House marathon on tv.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;Sunday, we closed the weekend out with a night at Winston's.  It was Casey's birthday celebration.  We decided to celebrate last night, since we weren't able to be with her on her "actual" birthday.  I made 2 cakes and some cupcakes for her and our friends.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6600cc;"&gt;Well, back to work today!  4 Days until our cruise!

I truly had a very exhausting week. But I had an awesome time on Friday night. Our friends Kyle and Casey came over for dinner. It was a very relaxing night. The company was fantastic. We had chicken parmesan, some garlic buttered pasta for a side, some garlic bread, and spinach casserole. I think everyone enjoyed themselves. We ended the night with sitting outside on our deck, smoking a cigar, and a few more drinks. It was a great night. We will absolutely have to do that more often.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;It's back to work now!

Saturday night, we went to Alfredo's to eat dinner with Kyle and Casey. Kyle had never been there before, so we were excited to be able to show him a place we love to go. Our dinners all seemed to be outstanding. I think everyone truly enjoyed it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday, we went to get Stephanie's car cleaned as well. And we closed out the weekend at Winston's with our friends.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Not to brag, but I think I made a fantastic cake yesterday.

All of them say, we need to get out of Iraq, they are against the war, and that George Bush doesn't know what he's doing, and stand by nothing that he stands for. It's amazing that no democrat is saying anything negative about his Tax Refund Bill.  And if they are, believe me, they won't do anything about it.  Every tax paying citizen will be given $600.  Well, it fascinates me that a left wing wacko will even accept that money.  I mean really...if these people who are SO against everything George Bush, then why don't you hear about them planning to give their tax refund money back?  I can assure you that not one democrat will do this.  They are SO AGAINST THE WAR, but they'll take that money and run with it.

This past weekend, we finally picked up our season tickets for the Atlanta Braves!  We are happy that we will be going to the games this year, and having awesome tickets to each game as well.  We will be sitting on the Club Level, which is formerly referred to as the Lexus Level.  Thankfully, the riff-raff people from the other levels will not be allowed to take advantage of the 755 club this year, as you must have a club level ticket to the game in order to even enter.  That should be awesome.  Also, from what I've heard, on Sundays, they will be having a Jazz Brunch in the 755 club as well.  They will have different station themed stations like a seafood station, dessert station, pasta station ,etc.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;We are really looking forward to a successful Braves season!

There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it!  You vote for this man, you obviously don't care about your country in the least.  Anyone that is for nationalized healthcare...you are also a moron.  It fascinates me that the United States constitution does not list activities such as education, medical care, and retirement security.  However, these left wing shmucks think that they are deserving of these things.  What nuts!!!  You know why these things were not listed in the Constitution?  Because, at the time, most Americans thought they were none of the federal government's business.  The individual should decide for themselves what they wanted to do. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;Let me ask you this...Do you believe in liberty?  Well, if you do, what are you libs voting for Obama or Clinton?  They don't believe in liberty obviously.  They want to instruct, they want to tell you, they want to demand that you take your hard earned money and spend it on what THEY want you to spend it on.  That's not liberty my friends!  That's a socialist country!  Not a free country!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;Obama has not one major accomplishment that qualifies him to be resident of the United States.  And even if he had, which he doesn't, he is still not qualified to be the President, simply because of the church that he and his wife have belonged to for roughly 20 years.  He belongs to a racist church...a church that has given the biggest racist and anti-semite Louis Farrakhan a lifetime award!!  Obama can't even say that he disagrees with his Reverend Wright!  He can't say that what he says is awful, and racist, and demeaning to people.  This reverend is the exact opposite of what Martin Luther King Jr. stood for.  And for Obama to not stand up and say that this man is a disgrace...that he can't stand up for a race, and I mean ANY race, shows that he is not qualified by any means to be the President of the United States of America.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-5989603635406811023?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/5989603635406811023/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=5989603635406811023' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5989603635406811023'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5989603635406811023'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/03/voting.html' title='Voting!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-5462609387111052186</id><published>2008-03-05T04:31:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-03-05T04:35:31.861-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Stop Hillary and Obama NOW!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:180%;color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;GET ON BOARD!!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FsQysUvS-gc/R86TVFtXGGI/AAAAAAAAAAk/9wJDOLMdxDA/s1600-h/hillary.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174235012414249058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FsQysUvS-gc/R86TVFtXGGI/AAAAAAAAAAk/9wJDOLMdxDA/s400/hillary.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-5462609387111052186?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/5462609387111052186/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=5462609387111052186' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5462609387111052186'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5462609387111052186'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/03/stop-hillary-and-obama-now.html' title='Stop Hillary and Obama NOW!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FsQysUvS-gc/R86TVFtXGGI/AAAAAAAAAAk/9wJDOLMdxDA/s72-c/hillary.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-1318471257748871183</id><published>2008-02-28T05:21:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-28T05:46:26.320-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Obama Fever?!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Well, here we go again.

My, this is absolutely amazing:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;As I enter my final year at Princeton, I find myself striving for many of the same goals as my White classmates -- acceptance to a prestigious graduate school or a high-paying position in a successful corporation," she wrote, citing the University's conservative values as a likely cause."Predominately White universities like Princeton are socially and academically designed to cater to the needs of the White students comprising the bulk of their enrollments," she said, noting the small size of the African-American studies department and that there were only five black tenured professors at the University across all departments.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffff33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Ok, now not only do we read this in the news, but what about last weeks "first time in my adult like I'm proud to be an American" statement? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Not to mention Luis Farrakhan saying that he praises Barack. And I must not forgot while writing about this...in December of 2007, Barack Obama's church, The Trinity United Church of Christ, bestowed its highest social achievement award upon Luis Farrakhan, the head of the Nation of Islam. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;But we can't stop there! No way! Bill Ayers, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;is professor of early childhood education and a senior university scholar at the University of Illinois in Chicago. As a leader of the 1960s underground Weatherman Group, Ayers organized bombings of the U.S. Capitol Building, New York City Police Headquarters, the Pentagon, and National Guard offices in Washington, D.C., among many other targets. Well, this man, lives in the same neighborhood as Barack, his children attend the same school, and they are "friendly."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;This man, has said, I don't regret setting bombs. I feel we didn't do enough." "Kill all rich people, break up their cars and apartments. Bring the revolution home. Kill your parents. Talking about America, What a country. It makes me want to puke."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;After all of these things in the past few days and or weeks that have come out, that's not even touching on this man belonging to a racist church!  You can check it out for yourself on his church website.  It's right there!  And I can tell you one thing, if a Republican belonged to a church that stood for the things that this church does, but instead put the word "white" in place of the word "black," there would be a major uproar across America!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;Anyone that votes for this man, must have a screw loose somewhere!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-1318471257748871183?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/1318471257748871183/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=1318471257748871183' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/1318471257748871183'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/1318471257748871183'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/02/obama-fever.html' title='Obama Fever?!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-4510432324171047630</id><published>2008-02-26T11:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-26T11:30:00.750-08:00</updated><title type='text'>National Healthrcare!

I am sick and tired of these dems talking about national heathcare. You know, I really don't have a problem with taking care of some of these people, however, I don't think that the government should demand that I do so. That's what Hillary Clinton wants to do. She wants to garnish your wages if you choose not to pay for it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;My point is, lets say that we give everyone national healthcare...if we should make sure that everyone has healthcare, why don't we go ahead and make sure that they all have cars. And let's not stop there. Let's make sure that they all have homes, and big screen tvs, and so on and so on. It's absolutely crazy. These left wing nutcases won't stop at healthcare. They will want more and more. It's like a terrorist. You can't barter or deal with a terrorist. You do, and it's just a matter of time, before they want more and more. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;The American people that want national healthcare, are &lt;em&gt;generally&lt;/em&gt; people that don't want to work, and want the government to give them a handout. Give me a break. Just like Boortz said about the people of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. Those people are nothing but a bunch of parasites and leaches!! All they do is want to sit on their fat behinds and live off the money we provide to them, and never do anything to better themselves. Hello, we live in the best country on the face of the earth. You have to make the effort to change. It's not going to be given to you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-4510432324171047630?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/4510432324171047630/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=4510432324171047630' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/4510432324171047630'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/4510432324171047630'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/02/national-heathercare-what-joke.html' title='National Healthrcare!

Liberal, Left Wing Wackos!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Well, well. I knew it was only a matter of time before I got some stupid and frankly thoughtless idiot to comment on my post about Michelle Obama. Let's break this down...you left wing wacko!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How about a little empathy for this woman and the country she grew up in as an African American? Are you really stupid enough to believe that she is taking away from the charitable contributions that our citizens have made to the tsunami victims or the victims of Katrina?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;My response to this question is YES YOU MORON! Did you even hear what she said the other night? The "first" time in my adult life, she is proud of her country. She didn't say for Katrina or the Tsunami. She said that "this" was the first time. So, your comment is not only inaccurate but downright ridiculous and stupid! Let's move on shall we?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;However, around the time of World War II, her people were still being lynched in the South, much less having any sort of civil rights which still are not in place in our society to a fully integrated degree. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Yes, you are correct about the time of World War II, however, even though her people were still being lynched at that time, doesn't mean that she can't be proud of what her country has done since then about it. You dumbass libs need to realize that this is the best country in the entire world. All of these people depending on the government for handouts are all like a bunch of little whining babies. When you can't get what you want by yourself, you come running to the mommy(the government) for help. Give me a damn break! Next...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;We have had a history of nothing but WHITE MALE presidents in this country that claims to have liberty and justice for ALL. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Why does it have to be a white thing...or a black thing. Aren't we all Americans? You are a hypocrite. The media and other mainstream medias such as left wing newspapers and magazines, are the reasons that so many people make such a big deal. Example...last year everyone made a big deal about Tony Dungy being the first black coach to win a Super Bowl. I think it's great, however, why can't we just call him an American, and drop the 1960's bullshit and treat him like everyone else? You know why? Because people like you treat them that way...like not equals. Let's move on again...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I think her comments are perfectly appropriate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Well, that just shows what a moron you are if you think that's appropriate. Enough said about that! Next...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Don't get me wrong...I am fiscally conservative and would have loved to see someone like Ron Paul win the presidency, but I believe that he would have been shot in office&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Forgetting about the Ron Paul part of this comment, every liberal that I've ever talked to always starts out when they are pissed saying, "I am a conservative...but." C'mon, just admit that you are a left wing radical and move on. I'd have more respect for you in that aspect.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This country is DEFINITELY in need of change..&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;This is the funniest thing about the libs and Obama. All you ever hear about is "change." Ok, what change? All you hear him say...change, change, change, change, change. It's a load of garbage. He needs to come up with some specific things he wants to "change." Oh, and can you name one single thing that Obama has done that qualifies him to be the president of the United States? Now c'mon..don't look anything up on the internet...try off the top of your head...that is if you have one.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I really don't feel the need to discuss this any further, as I have already won my battle with this nutcase before I even decided to blog about his stupid comment. And I feel very good about myself doing so. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;You, "sir," need to do the studying, and maybe pick up a paper...other than your local left wing biased bullshit that you obviously read. Or maybe you need to watch a different station on tv. Either way, you are an idiot, and this is exactly why democrats don't belong in the White House. You can comment, write, or bash all you want on my website. I am done speaking to you, as you aren't smart enough and or educated enough to carry on any further conversations with me. Thank you...Oh, guess what...I WON! Bye bye now. :)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc0000;"&gt;P.S. I love the way you created a blogger account just yesterday so you could make a little comment. I really must have pissed you off...GOOD!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#009900;"&gt;And one more thing.  Michelle Obama was born in Illinois.  So, that makes her an American.  Not an African American.  Stupid ass!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-5050628539383039345?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/5050628539383039345/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=5050628539383039345' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5050628539383039345'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/5050628539383039345'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/02/haha-liberal-left-wing-wackos.html' title='Haha!

It is making a comeback and let me tell you something, for the first time in my adult lifetime, I'm really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. And I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction and just not feeling so alone in my frustration and disappointment. I've seen people who are hungry to be unified around some basic common issues, and it's made me proud. And I feel privileged to be a part of even witnessing this, traveling around states all over this country and being reminded that there is more that unites us than divides us..."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I cannot believe this woman, who could possibly be the first lady of the United States of America is saying things like this. She says the first time in her adult life she's really proud of her country...THE USA? So, you mean to tell me that after the Tsunami, when American people helped, after World War II and wiping out Hitler, after Americans, whether they be Republican or Democratic, came together as a nation to help the victims, the United States cival rights movement to abolish slavery after 9/11/01 when everyone came together, after Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans when people came to their aid, etc, that this woman doesn't have ONE thing that she's been proud of her country about? She's a total disgrace. Vote for this man and his wife, and you truly don't have a clue about politics, common sense, or care about your country...the good Ole UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-4961866246124885544?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/4961866246124885544/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=4961866246124885544' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/4961866246124885544'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/4961866246124885544'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2008/02/vote-for-obama-and-you-really-need-your.html' title='Vote For Obama, and You Really Need Your Head Examined!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-974440069244510716</id><published>2007-12-18T09:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-12-18T09:12:36.216-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Fast Food!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Ok, I just hate everybody!  I stopped off at McDonald's today and got a couple of Big Macs today.  Usually, in the drive thru, the same guy takes my order.  Well I always say, "no onions."  Well, today, my Dad wanted me to ask them to go light on the sauce.  I didn't want to say that, because I knew it would end up with them doing something wrong to my order.  But, trying to be nice, and make him happy, I went through with it.  Well, not only did they not go light on the sauce, but they smothered them both with onions.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;What is it about these low life fast food servers, that they can't get orders correct?!  I mean, really...how hard can it be to put NO put onions on it.  If I were in the position, I would be saying to myself, "Wow, one step I don't have to make!"   I just think that people that work in these establishments are worthless individuals, and either need to learn how to take orders correctly or crawl back under the rock they came out from under.  Believe me..this country would be better off.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-974440069244510716?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/974440069244510716/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=974440069244510716' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/974440069244510716'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/974440069244510716'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2007/12/fast-food.html' title='Fast Food!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-6390686586378743432</id><published>2007-10-25T04:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-10-25T04:49:26.778-07:00</updated><title type='text'>I THINK I'VE HEARD EVERYTHING NOW!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Now, I think I have finally heard just about everything! My father's business only has about 3-4 employees. But we have this one guy, who I call Jocko, but his real name is Jason. I think he's now graduated to being called DUMBO! &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;First off, this employee is not a good one by any means. Personally, I would have fired him along time ago. But, it's not my decision to make. This guy comes in late, doesn't show up, sometimes calls at 2am and leaves a message saying that he's not going to be in, etc. You get the picture. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Last week he worked on Monday. Then Tuesday, he was late for work. We start work at 8am. He called about 8:30am. He said that he had sprained his ankle walking and had to sit and rest for a while. But he did say he would be at work. HE NEVER CAME IN AND NEVER CALLED BACK!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Wednesday comes along, and we don't hear from him at all. My father and I agreed that we would call him and tell him not to come in to work for the rest of the week and to pick up his paycheck(of one day's pay) on Friday at 4pm or Monday when he comes back to work. He told us some bullshit story about how his daughter had been bitten by a spider, and that he had to take her to the hospital. We just simply said for him to take care of that and we would see him on Monday.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Well, on Thursday, he called saying that he wouldn't be able to pick up his check on Friday, because he had to take his daughter back to the hospital again. He asked if he could pick up his check today(Thursday). We told him NO.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What a surprise...he made it on Friday at 4pm to pick up his check for one days pay. IMAGINE THAT! &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My father told me yesterday that this guy all day had been kissing ass. He would run into the office telling my father that he did what he told him to do, and asked if there was something else he could work on. Dad told him, and then goes back into the warehouse and does it. Then he comes back into the office again, and says he's done that project, and what else could he do. Dad told him and out he goes again.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Towards the end of the day, this stupid employee comes into the office, with a whining voice and says to my father, "Hey, I was wondering if you could loan me 20 dollars. My wife has her period and we can't afford tampons." Dad had just taken a trip to New York with my mother and pulled out his almost empty money clip. Dad told him that this was all the money he had, and no he couldn't have it. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What gets me about this guy is that if had worked last week, without all of his excuses and bullshit, he would have money. And it's amazing what these stupid people will do to get out of work. I know for a fact that if I was working for someone else, and I took off almost an entire week of work, I certaintly wouldn't go to the owner and ask for money. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I truly believe this is one of the worst employees I have ever seen. I told my father yesterday that I can't even look at him, because he really makes me sick to my stomach. He's absolutely the most disgusting individual I think I've ever seen. Fuckin' prick!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-6390686586378743432?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/6390686586378743432/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=6390686586378743432' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/6390686586378743432'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/6390686586378743432'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2007/10/i-think-ive-heard-everything-now.html' title='I THINK I&apos;VE HEARD EVERYTHING NOW!!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-2197447874319577672</id><published>2007-09-11T11:04:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-11T11:12:35.676-07:00</updated><title type='text'>WE REMEMBER</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_FsQysUvS-gc/RubahsIBZrI/AAAAAAAAAAc/BULimoM-O84/s1600-h/911remember.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5109011099613750962" style="DISPLAY: block;

Personally, I never thought he was a great football player anyway.  I think he's overrated, and now with what's going on with him and his personal life, I believe he needs to be suspended without pay until they find out if he is guilty or innocence.  I am tired of all of these actors, actresses, entertainers, and sports figures, getting away with everything with the law.  That's one of the reasons, I think what happened to Paris Hilton was one of the best things ever to happen.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;If Michael Vick is found guilty, which I believe he will, then he should be suspended from the NFL for life.  That's right folks...never to play in the NFL again...NOT FOR ANY TEAM!  Bye Bye!!  Sorry Vick!!  You had millions of dollars a year, you had endorsements, and look what you do...you fuck up like this.  See that's what happens...money doesn't make you smart.  Perfect example...Michael Vick!

I did a couple of pies as well.  I made a peanut butter cream pie, and along with that, I decided to make a key lime pie. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The food was great and the company was the best!

We have been planning this trip for a good while now, and finally it's just about here.  Some things that are so small, make me so happy.  Such as, laying on the beach, going to the dog track to do some gambling, and of course, one of my favorites...hot dogs on the beach!  Yum!  I remember having them as a kid when my parents would take me and my sister on vacation.  There was just something about it.  We are planning on having some very nice meals, and of course we are going to Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.  I am just happy that I get to spend my vacation with Stephanie, my best friend! We will be leaving at 5am tomorrow, and we will be back in Atlanta on May 28th! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day weekend!

I just read an article that states that a man is going to sue a dry cleaner establishment for 65 million dollars, because they lost his pair of pants.  The people that owned the dry cleaners even offered him up to $12,000 out of court, and the man still did not take the money.  The horrible thing about it is that the man that's suing, is a lawyer and a judge.  This person needs to be punished, and never allowed to practice law again for doing something so shitty.

Now, we always take it out of his paycheck on Friday when he gets paid, but I find it to be unbelievable.  That was yesterday.  Well, guess what?  He called at 6:20am this morning, before we even got to work,  and left a voicemail on our office answering machine, saying that he wouldn't be in today AT ALL!  He made up some stupid excuse as to why he wouldn't be in.  I just can't believe this piece of crap, low-life bastard, has the balls to number one, ask to borrow money.  And secondly, to the very next day, call in and say he's not coming into work.  I cannot believe people in this world are that fuckin' stupid, and even more so, that freakin' worthless.

It was a good game, but at the end, the Braves ended up losing.  That's the way it always is.  If I stay up and watch an entire game, my team always loses!

I am getting excited!  Today I received my Atlanta Braves/Chicago White Sox tickets for this upcoming Saturday!  Stephanie, Scott, Lisa, and myself are going to watch the game this weekend.  It's just an exhibition game, but I am still really excited.  The Braves season is almost here!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Luckily, with the tickets I got, we also received a free parking pass, and tickets to the 755 Club.  The 755 Club sounds pretty cool.  I've never been there, but supposedly they have a buffet, and a deck outside where you can order drinks and watch the game at the same time.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Stephanie and I already have tickets for the Braves/Marlins game in April too.

And people with either not using their blinkers, or people that wait until they are right up on their turn to put it on.  Hello!!  That's a little late!  Those are the people that are causing accidents...not people that are moving!  I am just sick of these stupid morons.

On Super Bowl Sunday, there was a commercial that aired.  It was a Snickers commercial.  There are 2 mechanics working on an automobile.  One takes out a Snickers bar and unwraps it.  He then begins to eat the candy bar.  The other mechanic, with his mouth, eats the candy bar from the other end.  Of course, after a while the candy bar is almost fully eaten, and the 2 men are accidently kissing each other.  They both look at the each other, suprised at what had just happened.  One says the other, "I think we just kissed!"  Then the other mechanic says, "quick do something manly!"  And they both rip open their shirts and rip off a piece of chest hair, and as a result, they both scream.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;It was a great commercial.  And I truly don't understand why people are so offended at something like that.  So what.  But of course, all the people that complained, because they have nothing better to do with their time, somehow or another got the commercial banned.  Its absolutely amazing to me.  FUCK ANYONE THAT WAS OFFENDED AT THAT COMMERCIAL.  Get a life!!  Again, if you don't like what you are watching or listening to, then turn that little knob on the your radio or tv.  Geez!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-117087127747782076?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/117087127747782076/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=117087127747782076' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/117087127747782076'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/117087127747782076'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2007/02/everybodys-offended.html' title='Everybody&apos;s Offended!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-117078746081630093</id><published>2007-02-06T10:39:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-06T10:44:20.840-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Super Bowl 41</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;I had a great time during the Super Bowl this past Sunday night.  We had some great friends come over to the house to watch the game.  Stephanie mentioned all the people that were there.  We truly had a great time.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Now, there is something that does irritate me.  Everyone keeps talking about the race of the coaches that night.  I know they are black.  I don't care.  I don't think it's a big deal that they are black.  These coaches did not get to the Super Bowl because they are black.  It was because they are smart, which has absolutely nothing to do with COLOR!  Hasn't this country tried for so long to bring everyone together and not make a big deal about the color of someone's skin?  The media, and this goes for radio and television, do nothing but separate people because of race.  It's pathetic.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-117078746081630093?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/117078746081630093/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=117078746081630093' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/117078746081630093'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/117078746081630093'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2007/02/super-bowl-41.html' title='Super Bowl 41'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-117043367360088106</id><published>2007-02-02T08:23:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-02-02T12:27:24.446-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Fast Food Restaurants</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;You know, I just got back from a fast food restaurant just a few seconds ago. I of course, made the mistake of going to the drive thru window. The people that work in these places are truly the most worthless, pathetic, low life individuals on the planet. They are all stupid human beings. I ordered 2 burgers without onions, and I get the bag, and the receipt says 1 without onions. How ridiculous! Can you not understand what I said. NO ONIONS ON BOTH! And there's talk of raising the minimum wage?! I would take whatever minimum wage is now, and cut it in half. These people are nothing but burger flipping idiots. I wouldn't pay any one of them 2 bucks an hour! That's how stupid they are.

I was thinking about when I was growing up in high school, and how there always that one or two kids that always, every day got free lunch.  I thought it was weird back then, and as I've grown up, I think it's absolutely ridiculous. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;This is the deal.  If you are attending a governmental school, you should not be allowed to get anything different than anyone else.  Why should certain be treated differently?  Why should someone get something for free, when everyone else has to pay for it at full price.  That's stupid.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;I know, I know...I can hear someone saying to themselves right now..."well not everyone makes the same amount of money!"  Well, guess what...you're absolutely right.  They don't.  SO WHAT!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;If one person in the school gets lunch for free, then I think everyone should get lunch for free.  Where does the damn tax money go anyway?  You see what I am saying?  Bottom line...either everyone pays or everyone doesn't pay.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Anyone that has a problem with this, has got some major issues, and should probably go see a doctor to get some help with your brain.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-117027683444610815?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/117027683444610815/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=117027683444610815' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/117027683444610815'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/117027683444610815'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2007/01/this-i-cant-stand.html' title='This I Can&apos;t Stand!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-116851947389880787</id><published>2007-01-11T04:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2007-01-11T04:44:33.910-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Drunk at Bar!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;You know, I find it absolutely fascinating that a person can get drunk so early in the day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Stephanie and I made a trip up to Winston's for a few drinks last night.  We walked in, and as usual we saw a few people that we knew.  We said our usual hellos, and quickly found a place at the bar to sit.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Unfortunately, when I sat down, to noticed to my immediate right a guy with a leather coat on practically sleeping on the bar.  Every so often, he would raise his head up and stare at me, another customer, or even a bar employee.  Dave, who works behind the bar, noticed that he was just about passed out.  Dave tapped him on his hat, and said, "hey there...we can't have you sleeping at the bar."  He did wake up after that, but he continued to stare.  I looked over, and noticed that he was staring at me.  After a few minutes, I said to him," is there something you need?"  He continued to stare.  Then I said, "how are you doing?"  Within a second or two, he got up and walked out of the establishment.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;My question is this...How can a person get so drunk and it be so early in the evening.  It must have been straight up 6pm.  I am sure he was there for hours, but come on!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;Don't you think that's crazy, or am I just nuts?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-116851947389880787?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/116851947389880787/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=116851947389880787' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/116851947389880787'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/116851947389880787'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2007/01/drunk-at-bar.html' title='Drunk at Bar!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-116714426427034067</id><published>2006-12-26T06:31:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-26T06:44:24.300-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Yeah...WHATEVER!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;You know, my wife and I have discussed this the past few days, and in the process, we have had a pretty good time. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Stephanie last week received a comment on one of her websites.  Stephanie had asked what people would change about her if anything at all.  Someone, and I won't name names, said something in the way of "I wish you could be your like your old self again...a lot of people miss it."  First off, I think whoever said it, is being stupid and ridiculous.  I mean seriously...how childish can you truly be?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;To me, that's like saying,"I don't like you."  And the person they don't like says, "Why?"  Then they reply by saying, "I don't know...I just don't like them." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those kind of statements make no sense and in the process doesn't help anyone because of the lack of specifics.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Now, if you can name specific things about how Stephanie has changed, then that would be one thing.  I think Stephanie would agree with me on that.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;However, Stephanie doesn't think she's changed and either do I. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;If Stephanie had changed for instance.  Stephanie is happy.  So, why would you care anyway?  I believe that if Stephanie HAS changed, then it's for the better.  I would think she would agree.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;The point is this...I really have no idea who the person is that put that comment on her website  Actually I do have a good idea.  I don't have any proof whatsoever though.  But, this is the deal...stop being jealous with your own good for nothing life.  You chose what you wanted in life, and you are the result of your own pathetic life.  Just because you don't like your own life, don't blame your misfortunes on other people.  You made your life for yourself.  You are the one that SETTLED for SHIT.  Misery loves company, but misery doesn't like Stephanie and Steven.  That's why we aren't miserable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;We have a wonderful life together.  We enjoy being us.  That's the most important thing.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Get over your own crap life already and get a new one if you aren't happy.  You make up your destiny.  Your life is what you make of it!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-116714426427034067?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/116714426427034067/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=116714426427034067' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/116714426427034067'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/116714426427034067'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2006/12/yeahwhatever.html' title='Yeah...WHATEVER!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-116543199472962498</id><published>2006-12-06T10:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-12-06T11:06:34.743-08:00</updated><title type='text'>HAPPY FUCKIN' HOLIDAY SEASON!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;You know, I can't stand the term Merry Christmas.  What about everybody else in the world that doesn't celebrate Christmas.  I personally don't think it's right that most everyone always assumes that each individual they speak to during the "holiday season" is Christian.  I think it's absolutely disrespectful.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Now, don't get me wrong...I am perfectly fine with people celebrating Christmas.  It's a free country and they should observe any religion they like...as long as it doesn't effect other people.  I wish people would just take into consideration other people NOT celebrating this holiday. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I celebrate Chanukah, but I don't go around saying, "Happy Chanukah" to everyone and their mother!  And if I did,  I would say someone should correct me or at least say something to me about it.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;I know this won't change, and I truly don't expect it to.  I felt the need to say something about it.

Here I go again!  It's only November 21st, and I am already sick and tired of the "holiday season!"  It's not even Thanksgiving yet, and everyone is already saying "Merry Christmas!"  Give me a break people!  Get over it!  Christmas is in December!  Not November!  Like our friend Matt said the other day, "what the hell happened to Thanksgiving?!"  There is no excuse for saying Merry Christmas, before Thanksgiving.  I mean please...one holiday at a time!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I am also sick and tired of people at the mall.  So from now until the end of the year, I refuse to even go near a mall. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really do hate this time of year.  Thanksgiving I love, but everything else after that, I could care less about.  People around this time of year, start to act fake.  They all start to act nice, festive, and caring.  When in reality, they are the same pieces of shit they are the rest of the year.  These kind of people don't even come close to faking  me out.  I can smell a lie like a fart in a car! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The truth of the matter is this:  People try to stretch a ONE day holiday into 2 months.  Personally, I think it's pathetic.  Grow up and get a life.  Thank you!

Yesterday, Stephanie, Joe, and myself drove downtown to watch one the best NFL games EVER!  It was so much fun!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Joe picked us up at our house around 10:30am.  Shortly thereafter, we got in Joe's truck and headed downtown to eat an early lunch at The Varsity! Yum!  I know Joe must have absolutely hated it, but Stephanie and I really enjoyed it.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;From there, we found a parking lot that was charging a reasonable amount to park. We left the truck there, and walked across Centennial Olympic Park, and of course ended up at the Georgia Dome.  Kim and Corey met us there, and we walked into the game together.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;From the first play to the very last play, this was one incredible game.  The scoring went back and forth through the entire game.  I really believe there was not one second of that game that was boring.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;We were extremely lucky to have the opportunity to go. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, back to work!

Who the fuck cares!  The person, and I don't know who you are, because apparently you are too ashamed of yourself to sign your real name.  So, allow me to retort.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;It's like anything in this beautiful country we live in.  If you don't like something, you have every right to express it, as long it doesn't infringe upon someone else.  So, with saying that...if you don't like what I say, feel, or express, then quit reading, like our wonderful friend Nicole mentioned in her comment.  Thank you Nicole.  I do appreciate the encouragement.  I, however, think I was very honest, and do believe this country is lacking that.  People are too concerned with making someone upset, and in the process, aren't willing to speak their minds without hurting someone's feelings.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;You know, it's like television or radio.  If you don't like what you are watching or listening to, then just the turn it off.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;To the person who left the first comment on my last post:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Nobody twisted your arm and made you read my blog.  No one at all.  Obviously you have a problem with yourself.  That's not my problem.  That of course is yours and yours alone.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I do not think I am perfect, nor will I ever be.  I don't think anyone in the world is perfect. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will always speak my mind, and if you don't like...go and take shit with your clothes on and get a freakin' life.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Bye bye! :)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-115633360900702822?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/115633360900702822/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=115633360900702822' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/115633360900702822'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/115633360900702822'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2006/08/i-must-have-gotten-to-you.html' title='I MUST HAVE GOTTEN TO YOU!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-115583260555678900</id><published>2006-08-17T09:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-08-17T09:36:45.570-07:00</updated><title type='text'>SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Ok, so here we go...I am totally sick and fuckin' tired of hearing people talk bad behind other people's back.  And though I realize this will NEVER end, I still can vent and speak my mind regarding it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;This sounds stupid and old fashioned, but really, If you don't have something nice to say to someone, then just don't open your mouth at all.  Have some freakin' balls and say whatever you want to the person.  Just say it to their face.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Also, what is going on with women who think they are hot, but obviously are NOT.  I saw a couple of women today when I was picking lunch for me and my Dad.  They were absolutely awful looking.  They happened to be wearing these horribly tight workout pants with like sport bras on.  Now, granted they were both very tan, these 2 women were disgusting.  And as I was waiting for my food, I happened to glance over at their table.  They both had the worst expressions on their faces.  All I was thinking the entire time was, I would get absolutely sick and tired of looking at either of these 2 women, if I had to actually live with them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Another thing...tattoos are disgusting!  And they are truly going out of style as well.  I know there are many people out there that are good people that have tattoos, but in my opinion, you look like a dirty, skanky piece of trash.  I am so disgusted by them, that once I told a girl in Florida that I wouldn't sleep with her because she had one on the small of her back.  That is honest truth.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Think about yourself at 89 years old with your tramp stamp, as Neal Boortz would call it.  I am thinking about it...Oh yeah, you sure are sexy...NOT!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;In short...look in the mirror and make sure you ACTUALLY look decent.  And if you don't care about the way you look to yourself, think of other people that have to look at your sorry, stinky, smelly, fuckin' ass every day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Good day!  :)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-115583260555678900?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/115583260555678900/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=115583260555678900' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/115583260555678900'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/115583260555678900'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2006/08/sick-and-tired-of-people.html' title='SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-115454484959944595</id><published>2006-08-02T11:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-08-02T11:54:09.613-07:00</updated><title type='text'>BUNCH OF LARD ASSES!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Today on the radio, I was listening to Neal Boortz, who is a great morning talk show radio host here in Atlanta.  His show is broadcasted around the country, so some of you may know who I am referring to. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway...he was talking about a popular fast food restaurant.  Supposedly, they are going to be coming out with a "Fantastic Four" burger very soon.  According to the radio show this morning, this hamburger is going to have 4 beef patties, 4 slices of cheese, and 8 slices of bacon on it!  Can you freakin' believe this shit!  And to top it all off, this hamburger will supposedly have over 1000 calories!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Please ladies and gentleman...what the hell do you need a 4 patty burger for?  Are you really that hungry?  I doubt it! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;And to top off the bit on this hamburger, Boortz mentioned that everyone will be running to try it, and then once they've gained weight, they will complain that it's because of their genes that they are heavy!  Please!!!!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Bottom line...if you need a burger that big...then you are probably a big, fat, tub of lard ass anyway, and you need to go home and eat a fuckin' salad.  Because you are probably worthless anyway.  Now get out of my face!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-115454484959944595?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/115454484959944595/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=115454484959944595' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/115454484959944595'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/115454484959944595'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2006/08/bunch-of-lard-asses.html' title='BUNCH OF LARD ASSES!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-115339576484299539</id><published>2006-07-20T04:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-07-20T04:42:44.853-07:00</updated><title type='text'>WEEKEND!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;This is going to be a great weekend!  I more excited about it for Stephanie.  Like she mentioned on her website, this weekend is Stephanie's 10 year class reunion!  I went to my 5 year class reunion here in Atlanta back in 1996, but didn't get the chance to go to my 10 year.  I wasn't really impressed by seeing people 5 years later, but I really think things can change in a period of 10 years.  So, with that, I am really happy that Stephanie will have the opportunity to see her former classmates from high school.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;As far as everything else goes...we are doing great here in Atlanta.  The heat is awful though.  The last few days, my Dad and I, have been sweating our asses off!  I don't mean it's hot...I mean it's &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;HOT!!!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Other than work, Stephanie and I have been working out 3 days a week at the gym together.  I really enjoy that!  Having someone with you makes it more bearable and it also gives you someone that will push you to do even better.  Stephanie is doing so well with her work outs!  I really am happy to have someone like her! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well...time to go to work!

I was not happy about it really. My Oldsmobile Alero got me through a lot. I bought that car when I was living in Nashville, and it truly was one of the best cars I EVER had. But, I had about 148,000 miles on it, so it was time to trade it in. There is a consumer reporter guy named Clark Howard, who says it's ridiculous to purchase a brand new vehichle because of the depreciation when you first drive it out of the lot. So, I thought I would try CarMax. Last Tuesday I found a 2003 Dodge Durango! The damn thing is huge, bright red, and drives like a Cadillac! I absolutely love it!&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;P.S.

Friday, Stephanie and I decided to hang out at Winston's here in Marietta.  The staff knows us very well, and we enjoy that place.  It's a lot of fun!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saturday we did some browsing around the mall.  We went through numerous stores and then decided to eat lunch at TGI Fridays. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Saturday night, I was extremely excited, because we were going to meet a good friend of mine from college and his wife for dinner.  I had not seen Greg since 1997, so it was so much fun catching up with him and meeting his wife as well.  We met at Manuel's Tavern in the Virginia Higlands.  We ate dinner and had some drinks.  Most importantly, we had the opportunity to catch up on each other's lives.  Man, there are alot of things that can happen in 9 years!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Today, Stephanie and I headed over to Pike's Nursery to get some fertilizer, and weed killer for our lawn.  We also dropped by Wal-Mart for a split second to get some mulch as well.  I am NOT going to back there.  I forgot that both Stephanie and myself hate that damn place.  The people that shop there are a totally different breed of people.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Now, Stephanie and I are going to head back to Winston's for some drinks and maybe something to eat.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Hope everyone had a great weekend!

That was a nice night...just the two of us.  When I got home from work around 5:30 or so, I decided to mow the lawn.  I usually wait to the actual weekend to do that, but I knew we were supposed to get some major rain Saturday.  I just wanted to get it done before it came.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Saturday night was a blast.  My cousins Jack and Ben came over with their girlfriends.  We all met at our house and then headed over to Winston's.  Winston's is a great little bar and grill place.  We like it a lot.  The staff there seems to like us as well.  We hung out there and eventually came back to our house to end the night.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Sunday, we picked up Mama Grace at her house and drove up to Dawsonville, Georgia to do some outlet mall shopping.  Thank you very much Mama Grace for the wonderful day!  We got to do a lot of shopping and ate a terrific lunch.  We had planned that after a day of shopping, that we would come back to our house for the night.  My parents along with my sister Dana and her husband Adam met us there around 5:30.  We grilled out hamburgers and hot dogs and had some great conversation.  I really did have an awesome weekend!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Well back to work!

I think Stephanie feels the same way.  However, when people complain and whine about how bad their lives our, that really ticks me off.  I mean, do you really think no one else in the entire world has a problem?  Get real.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Also, I am so tired of hearing about people that take off work because they have a headache or they have a sore back, or a sore throat, or a cough!  Then, after these people take off work, they have the nerve to complain about money...or the lack of money.  Here's a word to the wise.  If you are one of these people that every time you feel a little ill and you take of work, you are nothing but a lazy, no good little child.  Apparently you haven't grown up.  Just get off your lazy ass and go to work.  If you feel sick at home, you will be feel sick at work.  At least at work you will get paid.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;If you are one to do this, then I have no sympathy for you.

I have to be honest. It's truly amazing to see how truly dumb people are. Ok, for example...why if someone called you and left you a message would you call them back the following morning at 7:30am, especially if you knew the person worked from say 8-5pm.?Are you that stupid? Maybe that person you are calling is getting ready for work, driving to work, or even at work already? It's just the point. You look like an idiot when you call someone that early in the morning and even when you call someone at 11:30 or later at night. Be courteous and try to have a clue.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Next...We have found out a lot about a great deal of people through our wedding planning. We have discovered who in fact are true friends and who are NOT. Once again it comes down to class, style, and being courteous. If you can't show respect for other people, I promise you...NO ONE WILL RESPECT YOU!

I found out today, that my wedding band is in.  We ordered it a few weeks back, and I am actually very excited to hear that it's already here.  Stephanie and I picked up her wedding band a few weeks ago, and now, I will have mine.  It's very weird to have these rings, but not be able to actually wear them yet.  They are gonna just sit there for a little while.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;Stephanie and I have been discussing this...on our wedding weekend, we are going to be seeing so many people.  It will almost be like a reunion of friends and of course family.  But, it feels strange, in a good way I might add, to have all of the people we care about in Atlanta instead of the Tri-Cities or Nashville.  Maybe that's crazy to think that way, but we've both thought about that.  Anyway........&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33cc00;"&gt;                                                                    &lt;em&gt;    44 DAYS TO GO!!!!!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-113830614515780145?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/113830614515780145/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=113830614515780145' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/113830614515780145'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/113830614515780145'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2006/01/countdown-is-on.html' title='THE COUNTDOWN IS ON!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-113776092933592694</id><published>2006-01-20T04:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-20T04:42:09.346-08:00</updated><title type='text'>IT'S FRIDAY!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;It's almost the weekend!  Man, am I mentally drained!  I've had a lot on my mind lately.  We've done so much in such a short period of time.  It's actually amazing.  We've sold a condo, we've physically moved to Atlanta, we've found a new home, and in the process, we've somehow had the time to do wedding planning.  We are still waiting on some final stuff regarding our home inspection, but at this time, we are planning on closing on the new house January 30th.  This may change, but right now, this is the set date.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I am excited for Stephanie this weekend, because she is having her bridal shower at Brio in Atlanta on Sunday.

On RSVPs, here's the deal, for people who don't know.  On your invitation, if it has your name on it and that's it, then you have been asked without a guest.  However, if the envelope says, "your name and guest," then you have the option to bring A guest.  This is going to be a formal seated dinner," which means that we have to get a head count of people that will be attending, so we can make the appropriate seating chart and tables.  I feel bad that some people that haven't been given a guest, but please understand that we only have the budget for people that we've invited.  Everyone that's received an invitation, would like to see them all attend.  We wouldn't have invited you if we didn't.  Please keep this in mind when filling out our RSVP please.  We would really appreciate it.  Have a great rest of the weekend!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-113733231753397466?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/113733231753397466/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=113733231753397466' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/113733231753397466'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/113733231753397466'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2006/01/rsvping.html' title='RSVPing'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-113708287355029945</id><published>2006-01-12T08:11:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2006-01-12T08:22:25.523-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Just about there!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;It's been a while since I've posted, so I have a great deal to say. We are less than 2 months away from our wedding, and it seems as though we get more and more excited as the day draws closer. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I've been a little upset with a few of Stephanie's comments regarding certain things for our wedding. And it pretty much boils down to this: This is our day..and more importantly, this is Stephanie's day. Bottom line...wear a damn suit and tie and like Stephanie said, show some class. I promise you...you will end up embarrassing yourself if you don't. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;If anyone out there is reading this, you will know how I am. I am very particular. And even more particular when it comes to Stephanie. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#33ccff;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Secondly, about RSVPing to wedding/shower invitations...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I am with Stephanie on this one. If you can't come to an event, people will of course be upset, but it's better than not responding one way or the other. We wouldn't have invited you if we didn't want you there, but we also understand that things come up. So, please, show a little respect and send your RSVPs back as soon as possible. That way our parents can get a head count for the wedding night. Just do the proper thing and respond. Thank you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;As for what's going on with us...we just signed the papers for a new house in Marietta, GA. We are both really excited about it. All we are waiting on is the Home Inspection. If that comes back, and everything's fine with the house, we close on January 30th!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Well back to work!

It's amazing how fast the days go by here in Atlanta. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The weather is freezing here!  I wish it were Spring already.  Stephanie and I are still in the process of finding a home.  Usually, we are looking every weekend with our real estate agent, but she's unavailable on Saturday.  Looks like we won't be looking until after New Years.  That's ok.  That at least gives us some time to narrow down the search on homes we actually will see the next time.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Chanukah is coming up as well.  Usually, one night we spend it with my Mom's family, and another we spend with my Dad's family.  I am really lookin forward to it, since I haven't been a part of that for so many years.  Being back in Atlanta is unbelievable.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I am extremely happy for Stephanie also!  She's been doing so well at work!  I know she can do anything if she puts her mind to it!  Way to go Stephanie!  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Well, gotta run!

We are officially moved!  Yesterday we left the Tri-Cities about 9:15 and got to Atlanta around 2pm.  Everything we had in the U-Haul truck was in storage by 4:45!  So, incredibly enough...it's finally finished.  The move was successful.  Now, it's just a matter of time before we find our new house here in Atlanta.

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I know we did! What a time. We had my entire family over, had food, had drinks...hell...what else can you ask for. Sure do miss our good friends though. That's the ONLY thing I miss about the Tri-Shities. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Sorry it's been so long since I've written. Don't have much time to do much else other than work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In case you have heard or havent' heard, we finally sold our condo in Kingsport. We are both excited about it. It means another part of our "move" is over. Unfortunately, the hard part is almost here. ACTUALLY MOVING! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;I've moved 4 times since 1997. Which is a lot in my opinion. Being out of radio is one of the greatest things that's really ever happened to me. And once Stephanie and I get our new house, we are going to enjoy Atlanta even more than we already do. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;The plan is this: Saturday morning, we are leaving Atlanta for Kingsport at about 6am. Hopefully, we will arrive in Kingsport around 11 or 11:30am. Around 1pm, we are picking up the U-Haul and then driving it back to the condo. We will then be packing and loading everything the rest of the day Saturday and all day Sunday. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Monday morning, if we have everything already loaded in the truck, we are then returning to Atlanta.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is unfortunately not a FUN TRIP. We would love to see you all this weekend. But, this is the deal...if you aren't there to help out one way or another, whether it's packing or loading, then please &lt;em&gt;don't&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;come over. We really do not have the time to sit around and bull-shit. I don't mean this to sound mean, but we really do need to be out of there as early as possible. We would appreciate any help whatsover. Thanks and hope to see you all this weekend!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-113335851402995189?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/113335851402995189/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=113335851402995189' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/113335851402995189'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/113335851402995189'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2005/11/doing-awesomehell-its-wednesday.html' title='Doing Awesome...hell It&apos;s Wednesday!!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-113146025928314019</id><published>2005-11-07T09:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-11-08T06:30:59.296-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Almost Wednesday!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;Whoo!

A lot of people where out there, even with the weather getting colder.  They had these awesome heaters, so it was actually very comfortable out there.  Afterwards, we went to eat dinner at a place called IL Forno Pizza.  They have great pizza!  We ordered a large pizza with pepperoni and broccoli!  YUM!  It was delicious!

I agree with her...it did remind us a lot of Fanatic's in Johnson City!  We then migrated over to eat to Chinese food!

Have a great week!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-112895235191038588?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/112895235191038588/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=112895235191038588' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/112895235191038588'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/112895235191038588'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2005/10/braves-lose_10.html' title='Braves Lose!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17575507.post-112886187955606445</id><published>2005-10-09T05:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2005-10-09T05:44:39.560-07:00</updated><title type='text'>HOW BOUT THEM DAWGS!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;That's right!

I had to work until 9pm, but the night turned awesome after that.  My Uncle Brian was in town last night.  He was coming up for just one night to spend some time with us, because today he is going to Knoxville to see the UGA VS. TN game.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;We had an awesome time at Fanatic's last night.  Karen, Matt, Ozzy, Jada, Uncle Brian, Stephanie and myself were there!  We closed the place down!  We had an awesome time.  Even though we got home late, I am up fairly early to go to work.  Seems like that's all I ever do.

And if you didn't care, then go fuck yourself.  Now, for my first rant:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;You know, I really can't stand when you talk to someone and all they have are problems.  Like they are the ONLY people in the entire world that have problems.  Marital problems, kid problems, weight problems, mental problems, etc.  You know, have you ever thought about it for one freakin' second?  YOU made the decision to be exactly where you are right now in life.  If you have marital problems, you know...you shouldn't have gotten married!  You have children problems, guess what?  Do I even need to finish that statement?  I think you get the picture.  I just hate it when people have nothing positive to say.  I can't believe I just said that, because I am a pretty negative individual.  But, to day in and day out, always pointing out things that are bad in your life...I mean come on...Like the old saying goes....you made your bed...now you have to lie in it.  So get over it.  &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/17575507-112868194249680021?l=steviebs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/feeds/112868194249680021/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=17575507&amp;postID=112868194249680021' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/112868194249680021'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/17575507/posts/default/112868194249680021'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://steviebs.blogspot.com/2005/10/im-back.html' title='I&apos;m BACK!!!'/><author><name>Steven Baumrind</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17214635056598079603</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
