I had decided to print Cousin Ken's news paper column on the ShipsLog today, I haven’t asked him yet so I reconsidered. I try to stay at 500 words per entry, Ken’s is just over a 1000. I will put it on tomorrow. Ken is a Republican. Now me? I was a Democrat, then a Republican, then an Independent, then back to Republican now leaning to the Libertarian way of thinking.

My dearest friend is a Democrat. He still does not realize the Democratic party left him 30 years ago. He does not believe 80% of what the Democrats stand for, but is still a died in the wool DEMOCRAT, and I love him.

Anyway I have only one friend who is a Lawyer, she is a wonderful lady. I used to take my grand daughter to a closing just for her to see how a lady can operate. Vickie, an attorney, is great. She makes a dry closing interesting. There are several attorneys with whom I have done business and we are acquainted, but not really friends. One attorney, Jim, has made a bad decision business wise. He has an ‘Obama for President’ sign in front of his house. A smart business man keeps his politics to himself. It would have made no difference if it was Hillary or Mc Cain, that is not a smart business move. Many times during the business transactions, I was not pleased with how many attorneys think. As a whole I just cannot admire Lawyers. That is why Ken’s column interested me.

Have you ever thought of how many presidential aspirees are lawyers? Anyway in tomorrows entry I will print Ken’s column. It is good reading, of course if you are a dyed in the wool Democrat you will not like it, so you guys will have to forgive me, I just ain’t crazy about lawyers. I feel they are more Amoral than honest. You can say that about some business men, but at least they put their life’s savings on the line to be in business, and do not depend on torts & compromise to keep them going.

It is a strange fact that Hillary Clinton & President Bill, 8 years ago I think was worth about $800,000 dollars. Now, in 8 years she is able to loan herself 11 million dollars. Baby that is good money for never holding a job that paid over $150K a year.

Now I honestly do not know the worth of Former president Carter, a man I truly admired for his morality, but I doubt if he is worth 11 million dollars. Neither do I know the Reagan’s worth, maybe someone can tell me.

Aw, I am just on a soap box cause Attorneys bother me.

Thanks for coming this way.

    Good Morning,

    Just read your journal....why not come up and visit some of our Provinces...although I doubt we will see as many American tourists as our gas is more expensive than yours...and we live in ALBERTA where it is plentiful....

    Anyway will put your journal on alert....

    Blessings,

    Lori

    Ya, I played Guitar on ship, ever hear this one!!  it doesnt seem like it was forever
    ago I'm remembering some of this one I played, its got a Rumba Beat, I think its part of an old "johnny and Jack" song?  

    My dark eyed island baby, i'm on my way, back into your arms to stay,
    my ships at anchor, my suitcase packed, me and the navy are coming back---
    I crave her smile that shines so bright, her pretty teeth light up the night-
    Come on Skipper I'm ready to ride, I'm only waiting for the tide;

    old bossun boomer is on my can, ain't got no shirt trying to get a tan-
    the cob is begging for a smoke, ain't got none left --- in my poke----

    Sparkling eyes, lips so sweet, gonna go make love to an island beat--
    ships pulled anchor we're underway, hope i see ya  in a night or a day;
    moon is lighter, hearts are too, mighty good place to lose yer blues--
    wrapped up in my canvas sling, come on boys, lets all sing.

    The funiest I heard A woman is suing  J. C. Penny after an alleged run-in with a store mannequin said she was left with a cracked tooth, a bloodied head and pain.  She was shopping for a blouse the one her size was on the mannequin.
    While removing the garment the dummy's arm flew off and struck her head.  
    She said she was attached by the mannequin.  What Attorney would take that.
    How can a mannequin attack you.  I have passed some mannequin and said hello.  Now we have to worry while shopping we may be attack by a mannequin.
