So close

Last night the youngest guys basketball team almost pulled out a victory. In the end they lost by 4 points but this was to a team that beat them by 80 points last year! It was quite exciting.

Here’s a comment from yesterday’s post. We can always count on Grandma Annette, thanks,

Annette says:

You are right the Dem’s would be screaming bloody murder about the Pres. being able to kill who ever they want. Same crap different day. Whipping cream works or just drink it black. It’s always nice to get a school project done early. I don’t remember that happening at our house (when I was a kid or when Serena was a kid). Send pictures when you finish the doctors office.

Today the misses has a couple of meetings and then we’ll drive down to The Broadmoor Resort for an early quick dinner at 6:30 and hopefully be home by 9 or so. Thanks to Uncle T and Aunt B for taking the kiddos for dinner and the evening until we make it back to Denver.

I just took the oldest guy to school for inter-murals. The oldest is doing some work before school and Mom’s finishing up in the kitchen.

Let’s see, what’s going on in our Country today. Well, there’s a cop in California that shot 3 or 4 people including other cops who’s now on the run. So much for Diane Feinstein’s proposed new gun law that would take guns away from you and me and let cops and retired cops (like this guy) have them, hmmmm. The point here is will she now say that no cops or former cops can have guns? I don’t think so but if not, there’s clearly a double standard. Why take guns from law abiding citizens when a crazy person steals some and shoots people? These liberal gun haters who have probably never shot a gun in their life need to go after the the root of the problem which is the way we throw away people with mental issues and all the violence in kids video games and on tv. Leave us alone already.

Here’s something fun, yesterday I had a good conversation with the Jefferson County Sheriff here. You see, my great Uncle CB was the first Jeffco Sheriff killed in the line of duty back in 1940. His picture still hangs in the court house and at the academy. The misses and I were thinking the past few weeks of how we could help out the Sheriffs department as we know with all the budget cuts and the economy, they’ve lost some critical funding. So we decided to put on an event that will include a wine tasting and a raffle or auction for some Andrea Bocelli tickets to help raise them some money. Of course, this idea (knowing the misses) soon steamrolled and we now have additional sponsors like my buddy that owns a gun shop that’s going to donate a $2500 rifle and some other gear to help raise more money. We’re also reaching out to local business and a restaurant somewhere around here to host the event. We’ll tie in Applejack (the largest liquor store in the country) to help with the wine sales as well. The Sheriff is a really nice guy and kept thanking me for thinking of them. I joked that I can’t give wine away to my neighbors anymore as I’m afraid I’ll get sued for turning them into alcoholics. Anyhow it should be a fun event. We’re targeting sometime probably in May right before the Bocelli concert and hopefully we’ll raise lots of money for the department.

Ok, it’s 7:21 and time to get moving. Hope everyone is doing well, take care and have a great day and go out and by a gun today. The say last year someone bought a gun every 1.5 seconds, over 25 million in total!  As I’ve said before, the Pres is the best gun salesman in history!
