Where I give you my slightly quirky opinion, and you can give me yours, as long as you're man or woman enough to be civil and control your language.

About Me
- Joe
- I was born in Miami, Florida, the son of an Air Force officer, traveled the world, was saved at age 17, and have served the Lord since. That's me on the left and my lovely wife, Bonnie...the pretty one...on the right.
There Are But A Few Rules To Follow
1. Absolutely no foul language (including the use of asterisks). If you are not man or woman enough to control your language, you are not welcome here...go somewhere else.
2. I am not looking for strings of commenters arguing with each other, so confine your comments to the topic at hand and address your comments to me, unless you can be exceptionally gracious and polite.
3. Since this is my blog, I am the sole arbiter of what can be placed on this blog. My decisions are final and without recourse. All anonymous comments, unsigned, will be deleted, as will ad hominem attacks against me or others.
4. Within the scope of those rules, you may feel free to have fun here (I sure will). Sarcasm, wit, half-wit, nit-wit, parody, satire, puns (especially puns), etc. are encouraged.
FOUR PRINCIPLES THAT DEFINE TRUE CONSERVATISM:
1. Respect for The Constitution
2. Respect for Life
3. The Smallest Possible Government
4. Individual Responsibility
This blog is about my philosophy of government, which is a very conservative philosophy.
You are not required to agree with me (although you would be better off if you did).
I am biased toward conservatism, and make no apologies for that.
Freedom means not being controlled by the government, that being the very reason we declared our independence from Great Britain.

Government's job is not to provide things for people, but to provide the opportunity for people to persue the things they want via the vehicles of freedom and responsibility.

WHY I CALL HIM "PRESIDENT BO"
I call him "President" out of respect for the office. I call him "BO" (as in Body Odor) because his agenda stinks.
I also refer to him as our "Acting President."

Joe - The thing that struck me most - aside, of course, from the magnitude of destruction that hurricanes bring - was the dramatic voice of the 1930's announcer.
That was - so to speak - a blast from past..
(not that I was born yet - the wind blew me along in 1945.)
sue: They did report with a sense of urgency, didn't they?
Don't know whether you saw my comment relative to forgiveness, so I'll re-state it here:
I have written a post over at Joe's Jottings that may help.
http://scogginsnoggin.blogspot.com/2011/08/how-can-we-forgive.html
I loved how those announcers reported the news, they kept it exciting.
And did you see the gentlemen carrying that lady, now that is a blast from the past. You wouldn't see that today.
Nowadays, that woman would be sloshing along next to the man and he probably would have never crossed his mind to carry her through.
Joe - I did see it, and have already commented.
Thanks.
Now when they report about Hurricanes especially on MSNBC the next line is always how they are going to blame Global Warming.
I guess back then they didn't have that opportunist Al Gore around giving us his words of wisdom.
-Proud Survivor of Hurricane Irene
Back in those days, announcers had to have "radio voices." They didn't have whiny little milquetoasts like today's crop of "broadcasters." Unfortunately, the equipment back in those days did not fully do justice to their dulcet tones. By the way, I'm from the old school.
LR - No kidding.
Like we couldn't tell.
