Upcoming...Utopian Week

I know I haven't blogged lately, my apologies. I took a trip back to Clinton to just look around, eat some hometown food, and scout other life altering possibilities. I caught up with a classmate, and a Mom of an old friend. I am still recognized in town and some of the people I graduated with have returned back to Clinton to make things right.

It is interesting how many people are making this change back to our home town life at my age.

After having a not-so-long discussion with my wife (QueenSuchandSuch) about all of this, and after hearing about what her goals and wants are for her life, we figured it would be easier to write for one week about what our Utopian days would be like.

This will include everything from waking up to going to sleep. Each day for one week you will receive a glimpse into what my day would be like on my site, and what her day would be like on hers. We are going to TRY to get the kids (WarriorInside and CheerSydni) involved in this as well.

For the entries, we will try to described the sights, smell, sounds, taste...everything, so the entries may be long. I will have good days and bad days alike. I will also not have the usual point involved for this will be more of a journal entry style, rather than a blogger's post style. Additionally, I will not have my usual "Did you know..." section.

This brings me to my last point for a week (as I almost always have one). Please understand, this is for our family to sort out priorities, and wants and needs. I appreciate the readers I have, but for the next week, it is all about me. Sometimes, you just have to write about yourself, your dreams, your needs in order to figure it out for yourself, or to help loved ones understand you better.

The location for my entries will take place in Clinton, Illinois.

Did you know...

People with initials that spell out GOD or ACE are likely to live longer than people whose initials spell out words like APE, PIG, or RAT.

That's a pretty funny fact about the initials. I've never seen anyone with those particular initals, but it makes sense that that would be true. Keep up the good work. Thanks for posting your comment on my site, The David Kim Show. www.davidmkim.blogspot.com

My Rare Political Statement...Illegal Immigrants

This is a long post. However, it addresses BOTH sides of the immigration issue. The actual bill as it was received in the Senate from the House. http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=109_cong_bills&docid=f:h4437rfs.txt.pdf In a nutshell, here is what the bill provides (ref: Wikipedia ): · Requires up to 700 miles (1100 km) of fence along the US-Mexican border at points with the highest number of immigrant deaths. (House Amendment 648, authored by Duncan Hunter ) · Requires the federal government to take custody of illegal aliens detained by local authorities. This would end the practice of "catch and release", where federal officials sometimes instruct local law enforcement to release detained illegal aliens because resources to prosecute them are not available. It also reimburses local agencies in the 29 counties along the border for costs related to detaining illegal aliens. (Section 607) ·

What is it About Shoes?

I just have to know. What is it about shoes? I own five pairs of shoes and I can tell you where they are located at any given point in time. Each of them has a purpose. I have a black pair of tie-up shoes used for work and only work. In fact, they stay in my locker at work. The second pair of shoes are basically a backup for the first pair. They are slip on Dexter loafers in black and brown. Multifunctional and works with nearly every outfit. Third are my Nike Air Monarchs. I use these for nearly everything casual including my daily trip to work. After arriving at work, I put on the shoes mentioned first. Next are the mowing sneakers. They are plain white New Balance and were the predecessor to the Monarchs. I use them when I am mowing. They are green. Lastly are my bowling shoes. Dexter bowling shoes. They cannot be worn outside of a bowling alley, so they stay in my bowling bag (lately without any usage at all). This brings me to my point (as I almost always have one). Why in the wor

Moving on and moving out

I have made an executive decision in my life today. MomofJenMatt is right about a very sensitive issue and I have been running it through my mind for most of the night. I am strongly against the support of child pornography and to be honest, Xanga could be considered as contributing to the distribution of child pornography. Therefore, this is my last post with Xanga. I am moving to http://www.blogger.com/ . Blogger.com is tied to/owned by Google. It is a little more complicated to use, but I figure I will get used to it. This is my new blog site: http://n8ivwarrior.blogspot.com/ I welcome you to join me, although anyone can read and comment on my blog. You do not need to be a member. I hereby resign the Viewer's Choice to LarsThunder. Thank you for viewing and good luck to you all.
