Damnitt All!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ladies and gentlemen, I am here to announce that our country is no longer free. That is right folks, our freedom of speech is no more. In the recent weeks we have seen several radio personalities come under attack after making comments that some find offensive. Imus comes to mind. His comments were not racist at all, he was just making the statement that these women are not all that attractive, not because they are black, just that they are hard to look at. And now, Opie and Anthony have just been suspended from XM for statements made by a homeless speaking about Condaleeza Rice, Queen Elizabeth and Laura Bush.

Let me get this right, we can say what ever we want, but it just depends on who we are talking about. Welcome to our new communist country. Might as well put a a hammer and sickle on on our flag right now. Think about it, selective free speech, is NOT free speech. The idea of free speech was brought about to protect unpopular and offensive speech. Does this make sense? If no one has a problem with what you are saying, then what is the point in protecting it? There isn't any need to protect it. When it comes to the radio or the television, if you don't like what you are hearing, then turn it off. I am an adult, I can make my own choices on what I want to watch or listen to.

Those people who find the words of those spoken of here are relatively few. These folks are the minority. The problem is that even thought they are small in number, they are loud in voice. This is something that we need to think about. We are many, and no one will take my right away from me. RISE UP PEOPLE!!!!WE NEED TO FIGHT!!!!!!! NOW!!!!!

I Told You So

Well folks, it looks as if I have my computer working properly again. At least for a while anyway. As I stated in the last post, our bowling is doing great this year. Each member of the team is really contributing and stepping up there game. Myself, I have had five 279 games this year. That is good and that is bad. It means that I have had some got games this year. Yet it also means that I have been just one pin away from that grail. But hey, cant be to mad about 11-strikes can you? This weekend the team is going to take it's talent into the city tournanment. This is something that we probably would not have done, but we won free entry so we decided to go for it. Nothing really to lose here. Just figured that we would give it a shot, at least this once. Hopefully NJP Productions can keep on truckin' and do something big this weekend.

On the political front, I have set my sites just a little bit higher than the city commission. I would like to run the U.S. House of Representatives. This is no joke either. The way that I look at it, if Tim Walberg with his rather extreme views can win, why not me? I just dont think that his conservative point of view is really what this district is all about. The problem is, that those are apparently the views of voters. The way that I see it, there is a huge difference between voters and the people in this district. How do you convince people that their vote counts and means something? I think this is something that I am going to have to seriously explore before embarking on this journey.

Well folks, gotta get going. Again I will try and keep a much more up to date and comprehensive log as best I can..

Here we go...

First I would like to say that I am very sorry for the long lay off from this site. I am still having some computer problems so I think that for a while I will be somewhat spastic with updates.

The team is doing quite well this year. We are currently in first place with my own average being 206. As we tread into the streach of this season, NJP Productions will continue to strive for excellance and maintain our first place position. PeelBerry is also coming on strong with a 195 average and NJPFellow with a high 170's average. I think that we may have found a bit of success and will try and keep it up.

Sorry for the shortness of this post, but I am at work. See keep checking my brothers.

Come on NJPMan, lets get with it bro.

It Has Begun....

Got an update from the NJP Bowling Consortium here.

This week was another triumphant effort by all member. We once again took 4 from our opponents. PellBerry led the way with his first 600 series of the season with a nice 602. NJPFellow also had a fine series with a high game of 222. Myself I did not do so well. I started off with a couple of 155 and 156 games. The third game though I scored a nice 246 which helped us solidify the win. We are currently sitting on top of the standing with a 10-2 record. Hopefully we can keep the train rollin. PeelBerry also won a 50/50 raffle.


In an added note from the realm of the fantasy football league, I would just like PeelBerry to know that his win was not at all dominating. If my Seahawks had not blown a 42-3 fourth quarter to give up a total of 30 points, I would have been sure to reign supreme. Oh well though, a long season is still to come.

Well folks there was your update. I will keep all of you guys informed with any developing news.

My new quest...


I have a new quest. I believe it to be noble. I am on a quest to find the greatest recordings of great songs. I won't lie. I am an unabashed Johnny "Darth" Mathis fan and I find many of his recordings to be the end all for many great tunes. Let me see... Johnny owns the title for Chances Are, Misty, When I Give My Heart, Three Times a Lady(the fact that this is only available on tape sucks ass) among others. You pretty much cannot go wrong when it comes to Darth Mathis. His and Ray Charles version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow from the Genius Loves Company album takes the title for that song.

I also have some picks that fall outside of Dr. Mathis. They are actually pretty oddball. Take the song I Honestly Love You. The best and so far the greatest recording of this song I have come across is sung by a man names Jarrod Emick. It appears on the the soundtrack from the musical The Boy From Oz. Take the time to find it. You won't regret it. Another pick like this is my favorite version of I Just Called to Say I Love You. The song is sung by an artist named Raul Midon and is featured on the album Possibilities by Herbie Hancock. The song even includes a solo by Stevie Wonder on the harmonica.

That is just a few of my picks. I hope to make it a regular posting as find more and more of these greatest recordings. I realize that this is a very subjective concept, so don't let me have all the fun! Post some of your favorites in the comments section. Music is such a wonderful thing. It is completely limitless in scope so the journey never gets old. Have fun exploring...

Pollution Nationwide In Shock Over New Tax Proposal...

You gotta love Al Gore. You really do. This guy is genuinely concerned about the environment. Always has been. Hell, he probably could have swayed a few votes his way if he had let the American Public know about this during the 2000 Presidential Election cycle.

He may have now jumped the shark. According to an article on Reuters here, Gore has presented an idea that we tax carbon dioxide emissions instead of employee payrolls. The only reason I say he may have jumped the shark here is because there are so many holes in a tax plan like this, that to present this as a serious idea cannot be real.

Gore claims it will replace all payroll taxes, including Social Security and Unemployment. He also claims that the overall level of taxation will remain the same. Alright... What happens if companies reduce levels of pollution to a point that the tax revenue from them in almost null and void. Where do you recoup the revenue from? What about companies that have huge payrolls, but small emissions already. Where is that revenue made up? You cannot base a tax plan on an idea that can eventually lead to the taxes reducing to a point that there is not enough money to run the country. I am assuming here(I know I shouldn't, but it's my blog), but I would gather that the only companies would get a break on taxes, not people. I assume that we would still pay out the behind on our checks. So in a backwards way it looks like Gore is telling big companies if they spend some money they can get out of paying some big taxes, while the common man will get no relief. Actually if the companies got their act together our taxes would probably go up to cover the difference.

I know he means well and is admittedly thinking outside the box. This might not be the best way to go about this.

Kitten Cannon

I got bored today and sought out this oldie, but goody. It is a small, pointless game called Kitten Cannon. In it you shoot a helpless orange kitten out of a cannon. The goal is to shoot it as far as possible. You have to watch out for spikes and kitten-eating venus fly traps that will stop the helpless feline cold. To aid in your quest are trampolines, TNT and rockets floating on balloons.

It is very pointless, but very addicting. I believe my best is in the 3000ft range. Challenge it...CHALLENGE IT!!

PLAY IT HERE!!! MASH THAT ORANGE SOB!!

HERE'S AN EDIT...

Playing Kitten Cannon again reminded me that there was a game similar in nature to it that I used to play. It is called Nanaca Crash. It is all in english, but is very anime in nature. It really is a lot cooler. That poor dude on the bike gets f'd in the a!

Success

Well folks, the flagship of the NJP Bowling Consortium, NJP Producions did it again. We collectivly took 4 more points. Sweeping our opponents, the Unpredicctables. This team features a villian that we despise. This man would be kicked out of any bowling establishment that I would run. Or he would have to pay a premium for the potential of wrecking the lanes themselves. He likes to loft the ball up into the ai on hs approach and basically "drops it off the table". It just makes me sick. We still took 4 from them though. Myself, I bowled a 603 series with a 216 high game in the first. The 600 series is not what made me happy though. It was the fact that almost 90% of my first balls knocked down 9 pins. What that tells me is that I was missing by just that little bit. In the second game all of us got identical scores of 188. Somehow I think that is quite n accomplishment. I know that score was not the greatest but the fact that we managed to get the same scores is something else. There were no 50/50 wins. I won 2 of the 3 card games. No one pulled off the high game either.

Hopefully the NJP can continue this roll and just get better as we go.
