Today is the extra day you get every four years! I’ve always loved leap day.

Just be careful today is the day WOMEN can ask MEN to marry them.

In 1288 the Scottish parliament under Queen Margaret “any woman could propose in Leap Year”, But if the man rejects the proposal, he be fined with a kiss, one pound (English Money), and a pair of Silk gloves and a silk gown. There were similar traditions/laws in France and Switzerland. It also was not to be something you would do to a stranger, only a person who has been dodging the question. This is more refined to just LEAP DAY where the woman asks the man. Remember guys, it is ok to ask for a ring and a wedding date if asked for your paw in marrage. Just like the girls do when we ask them.

I’ve seen a lot of videos, this is a hit from EUROPE and they haven’t done well in the USA

But I do like the song and the video is original and very artistic – Watch and see if you agree!

One more fantastic mind is gone today, a person I highly admired William F. Buckley Jr. Died today.

I am sad because I found him to be so different from anyone else that to compare him to any other great thinker past or present to be just wrong.

If you are not watching closely there is an idea out there that the USA is slowly being disolved in an attempt to make a “North American Union” and replacing the Dollar with the Amero. The new North American Union would consist of Canada, the USA, and Mexico, merged together to form one block much like Europe has become. Unfortunately along with that merger we loose as citizens. We no longer keep a soverign currency, and we fall further under bad law and Worse Government. It is a very bad idea that is slowly creeping along to become reality. The Trans Texas Corridor is an aspect of this, along with the recent attempted Illegal Alien Amnesty bill in the US. The buzz on the web is getting loud. Take a few minutes to read something about this and be informed what your Government is doing.

And always watch out for the big Lies from the Government

1. We are from the Government and here to help you!
2. Of course I’ll still respect your ideas if I’m elected
3. We are thrifty with the Taxes we collect
4. Senate Intellegence Committee
5. Your Congressmen Represent you
6. People that write the laws understand the impact of those laws
7. Elected officials are smarter than the rest of us
8. We are about substance, not slogans!
9. We can balance the budget
10. Social Security LOCK BOX

The only thing is is missing is a Jennifer Aniston / Pricess Leia part!

POD Pickup Video

Apparently YOUTUBE is having an issue this week, so here is the video via a LINK

Ok, that was pretty cool, (I know the video quality stinks because I shot it with my cell phone), but the way that thing picks up the whole cube is really cool. that whole mechanism comes off the truck, drives over to the POD, the guy hooks up the pod, it picks it up, then he just backs under it and does his thing with locking down the lifter part. It is VERY well thought out. I don’t think that it could be easier to move, and nothing that cool packs for you yet.
