1000 Words, Part 3

Vacation

I needed one. I was beginning to become a whiny, self-absorbed, grumpy, pompous cretin. Yeah, I know! Hard to believe, right?

Anyway, I was beginning to hate the job that pays my bills, and my performance was suffering. So I took some time off a couple of weeks ago.

What a difference a little down time makes! I looked at my calendar and the last vacation I had taken was almost a year ago. I really need to do a better job of scheduling these things.

I am about to take some more time off. Maybe, as a result of this one, I turn into a nice guy.

OK, Maybe not.

We need to stop feeding the Trolls

I know it is great sport, and I have engaged in it myself. But, feeding them only inflates their sense of self-importance and does nothing to advance to the cause of Liberty.

To that end, I am disengaging from this conversation. You can't win the argument, because logic is lost on them. You sure as heck can't shoot them, because that would prove their point for them (but it would be quieter in the long run). Best to leave them alone to talk among themselves...

Call your Senator

The Pelosi-Reid Health Care travesty power grab is up for a vote on Cloture tomorrow night. Keep trying to get through the switchboard*...

*I say this because I have been trying for hours today and all of the circuits are busy into the DC offices of my Senators.

NoVA Blogmeet 12/5/09

Dear Readers (all 9 of you),

I have made the reservations for us at Sweetwater Tavern in Sterling for 5:00 PM on 12/5/09. That is the latest time that they will take reservations, as any time after that is "call-ahead seating" only. As the group coalesces, this number (currently 16) may expand or contract and that is OK.

If you are planning to attend, please email me (address in profile) with your RSVP. I know that some people would like to come at 6:00 PM and I think this will be OK, since I expect we will be there for a few hours.

I want this event to be a positive impression for us "gunnies" with the chain, and I expect that we will solve all of the world's problems by the time all of the beer has been consumed. Please join me if you are able.

Pax,

Newbius
