Hope and Change!!

I hope the hell America changes their mind in 4 years. We are going down a dangerous path and frankly I'm not drinking the kool aid!! Thirty years ago today a charismatic socialist named Jim Jones had over 900 followers drink kool-aid containing cyanide in a mass suicide. Now before you think I've lost my mind, let me go on the record as saying that I don't think Obama is going to kill us with a mass suicide. I do think that he is going to rape and pillage the wallets of hard working Americans in order to provide for the bottom feeders who won't help themselves. Beware of the charismatic socialist leader!! I don't believe their views are all that different, though obviously Jones was an extremist. Don't forget he was involved in legitimate politics until he flaked out!! You do the research!

I was recently called a "hater" by one of my close friends. At first I was quick to deny the allegation. But after a few moments of thinking about it, I embraced it. I am hater!! I hate every mother fucking rat bastard collecting welfare. You people make we want to puke up my dinner! There are no excuse for lack of self respect!! Stop living off the backs of hard working Americans. Get a Job!

I hate illegal immigrants that crowd our schools and hospitals!! Take your non English speaking asses along with your anchor babies and get the hell out of the country.

Why am I a hater?? Because I quite frankly don't understand it!! How can somebody be okay with not working, with not providing for their family?? How can people wake up and look in the mirror and be proud of collecting a welfare check!! Over breeding for financial gain is not an acceptable career choice!! Yet, we as Americans seem to be okay with this. I am not! I am an angry man!!

Why am I so angry? Simple, here is my work schedule for this week:

Sunday-work at airport
Mon-fri Work 9-5 full time job
Weds nite-work at airport
Thurs nite-work at oil company
Fri nite- Drive a limo

That's 4 jobs!! Count 'em, 4 freaking jobs!! I'm not complaining, I'm providing!! I won't be out worked!! I won't ever need Welfare money, food stamps or low income housing!! I get it done!! That's why I'm angry!! I absolutely can't even begin to comprehend how people can't have a job when I can have 4!! Stop taking handouts!!! Start taking responsibility!!

I fear things are going to get much worse with Obama! We now have cities (Philly, NY) asking to be bailed out. Give me a break!! The auto dealers want help too! Gm has lost 46 billion dollars over the last 3 years because they haven't built a car that people want to buy. Sounds like a shit investment for our money. They deserve to be bankrupt. The auto companies all had the chance to come up with a fuel efficient car that people want to drive and failed to do so!! Tough shit, bye bye, chapter 11 exist for companies that can't make money!! My Toyota has 145K miles and is still running strong!! I don't feel bad for them!

People who bought house they can't afford are going to be bailed out!! WTF-Why have i kept up my mortgage payments! They say " my mortgage guy told me i could afford it", really, what are we in fifth grade "Joey made me do it"!! Grow up and take responsibility for your shit!!! My mortgage guy told me I could afford a home for $420K and I laughed at him. I bought a house for half of that! I've been waiting for your sorry ass to foreclose so I could pick up your big ass house on the cheap, but now you're getting bailed out! I get fucked again!!

So there you have it, I'm an angry "hater" and proud of it!! I'd keep talking but I'm working a double tomorrow, imagine that!!

BTW- i started playing hoop at the gym again, jumper sucks and I lost my handle but I'll be back in game shape soon!

Talk to ya later...ross

WORK HARD......

THERE ARE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ON WELFARE DEPENDING ON YOU!!

I played in my first league tennis match this past weekend. As predicted here weeks ago the team is steamrolling through the league. We are currently 4-0!! This past match we won 3-2 over a good Concord team. I played 3rd doubles with my friend Gary. I played with Gary in college and we have been playing for years together. He is honestly the best partner I've ever had. He has terrific skills, but more importantly he is the smartest player I've ever played with. He sets up points 3 shots ahead. We are a tough team to play against. Over the years we have played a ton of good teams and put up some battles. We don't always win, but I never remember us being blown out. We are so confident in each other and know each other's games so well that we both feel free to play "our" style. We won in a 3rd set super breaker in which we were trailing at one point. I can honestly say that even while trailing we both never thought that we would lose the match. We played our best tennis in the tie breaker.

Our team captain Chris is a crazy Australian and he writes a match report at the conclusion of every match. Below is his report of our match:


"The two college buddies paired up in this bottom of the table clash. The
Capitals were a good pair though one of the guys wore suspiciously short
shorts, someone needed to tell him that the 80’s was over. It was obvious the
Algonquin pair were very comfortable and firing on all cylinders as they won
the first set with some solid play.
Towards the end of the first set Gary’s wife and children came to watch their daddy play.
However the children started getting noisy and it was time for Gary’s missus to leave.
On the way out it was reported by Pete’s son Aiden that Gary’s son, Jared said,
“Goodbye Fatman” and was directing his comments in the vicinity of Ross. This
is not confirmed because none of us have ever called Ross “Fatman” and we don’t
know why Jared would say that to the slim Rossman.
The second set see-sawed with service holds until a break. The Braves then
lost their concentration and the Capitals overwhelmed them to even the ledger.
The only words heard from the hapless Braves came from Gary when he
commented on one of the Capitals whose serve was nothing in the first set but
came good in the second set. “Did he take a lesson between sets?” says Gary
after the capital blasted a serve at him.
The tie breaker was hard fought. The score see-sawed between teams.
Ross’s balls swelled to the ground as he dug deep when they were down 6-7.
At this point Ross was pumped, after a lunge mid-court for a volley winner
Ross punches Gary into next week with a jab to the solar plexus sending Gary a
step back. In this tie break Ross showed why competitiveness and tenacity
pays off. To never give up in crucial situations is so important in this league."


Yes, I really punched Gary after I hit a monster volley to bring us to match point. Not a smart move to punch your partner right before he is about to serve Match point!! But I was really pumped up. At 6-7, after serving like shit all afternoon, I dug deep and hit my best 2 serves of the afternoon to go up 8-7. And at 8-8 I hit a monster volley to bring us to match point. We have a saying on the team that you have to have big balls to win tie-breakers!! Gary and I definitely showed some big ones!!

Election thoughts

Hello,
Let me first start by saying that I wasn't able to run the Manchester half marathon either. I was sick for two straight weeks. It's okay, I'm fine with it!! There will be other races. I have started playing hoop at the gym again and have also been playing tennis with my team. We are still undefeated and I make my first appearance in match play this Sunday. I'm paired up with my buddy Gary and I fully expect us to win!

Okay about the election!! I volunteered to drive people to the polls on Tuesday! It was a great experience and I will definitely do it again. If you feel strongly about politics, you should get involved!! It's easy, fun and important!

Congrats to the left wing for pulling out the election. You lied brilliantly! You pulled out all of the tricks. You got the poor, the uneducated and the inexperienced college kids to vote for your man Barack! Seriously, what do college kids know about paying taxes-NOTHING!!!

What a country -when the people on welfare can vote themselves a raise, anything is possible!!

Here are a few things about Obama that scare the living hell out of me -

I have been through 3 union elections in my career- they are nasty and contentious- If he pushes to remove the secret ballot from union elections, union intimidation will be at an all time high!! This is not good for the American worker!! Secret ballots are fair, voter intimidation is not!

When Barack gives drivers licenses to Illegal immigrants, will he put a DMV at the border so they don't have to cross the desert on foot. Is that how he is going to create jobs? Can we pull them over and arrest them for DWI (driving while illegal)!!

3.8 million people collected unemployment benefits last month!! WTF-how is that possible. I read 4 papers today, they all have this section called "help wanted". Amazingly, there were jobs posted there!! You lazy bags of shit make me want to puke!!

I could go on, but why bother?? The American people made a horse shit reactionary choice that we are stuck with for 4 years. Obama has a chance not to completely suck but I don't believe he will take that opportunity. He has to pay back Reid , Pelosi , the unions and the bottom feeders that elected him. We are looking towards economic policies that will punish the hard working people of America!!

Prove me wrong Obama!!

P.S. I'm still not feeling right, i hope i can go for a run soon!!
