City Rain

Sheets of water poured from the hovering grey canvas

That was stretched across the dome of sky

Misty, foggy air hung like a watery veil

Over the city streets and monolithic skyscrapers

That spiraled upward towards the heavens, whose tops were lost in the vaporous mist

The rain, the rain, the rain, shrouding my city in her liquid clothes

Dampening her heart and soul, entrancing her into a soothing melancholy trance

As the rain drops tap out the rhythm to the rainy melody sang from my misty saturated city

Inebriated, yet liberated by the liquor from above:

Pour down on me, run down these streets

Saturate me fully, quench this heat

Wash away yesterday’s filth

Cleanse me once again

Pour down on me, oh precious rain.

In the Realms of the Mind

In the realms of the mind, I have taken flight
Soared above this wasteland, escaped my plight
Dreaming my dreams, hope escalating, feels like
I almost can

Feels like I have the power to turn quivering hopes and dreams
Into concrete slabs of reality
Like one day my aspirations will be realized beyond anything that has
ever tripped my brain

In the realms of the mind, impossible is never spoken
My dreams are steadfast, resolve is unbroken
Moving forward, optimism rising, Johnny Mathis sings "Its going to be
a bright, bright, sunshiny day

Feel the blue sky and sunshine shining deep into my soul
Injecting me with confidence
Projecting an image of  achieving and accomplishing the desires that
have fired my soul with bittersweet heat

In the realm of the mind, where our dreams are birthed
Is where we weigh and measure what our ambitions are worth
Where we evaluate and estimate those things that haunt, tease and
torment our days.

Snoreless Pillow

Is it possible that a snoreless pillow works? I really do not know, the promotion says that it comes with a seven-year manufacturer guarantee. Before ordering this product I would read the fine print and see what all the guarantee entails. If you order this product please come back and leave a comment on whether the anti-snoring pillow works or not. I am interested to know how it works. My wife claims that I snore pretty bad, she may want to buy me one as a Christmas present. The promo also states that this product can not be purchased in stores, let me know if you find one.

Gotta Wear my Shoes

Gonna leave my bed, jump to my feet

Gotta fill my shoes

Gonna win this race

Motorola EX124G

I am a big fan of Net10 pre-paid cell phones. After purchasing my first Net10 smart phone, the LG900, I felt like I was moving up in the world. Now that the new as wore off of my LG900 smart phone, I have been eyeballing touch-screen phones While I have never owned a touch-screen phone, from what I have observed, touch-screen phones appear to be easier to navigate with a more vibrant display. Being a Net10 user, I did not realize that with a pay-as-you-go plan you had the option for a touch-screen, so I was very pleased when I found that Net10 and TracFone both offered the Motorola EX124G touch-screen phone.

As well as being touch-screen, the Motorola EX124G offers mobile web browsing, which is one of the reasons that I purchased my LG900 smart phone. I use my phone a minimal amount of time, so the Net10 program works well for me and fits into my budget. Now as well as having a cell phone plan that I can afford, I can also enjoy the luxury of touch screen technology with the EX124G.

Blue Ridge Lake Water Tempurature, Come on in the Water is Fine

Me and the family took a trip to the lake today. We went to Morganton Point on Blue Ridge Lake. The water felt like bathwater, in some places it even felt hot. Even though the water was hot, it was still a nice reprieve from the heat.

HB1804 HB1804 - Wikipedia, Oklahoma House Bill 1804, also known as the Oklahoma Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act 2007, is a strict anti-illegal immigration law introduced by state Rep. Randy Terrill (R), chairman of the Revenue and Taxation Committee. The law makes it a felony even to give a person a ride if they know or have grounds to suspect them of being an illegal immigrant. It also forbids the state from providing education, health care and many other services to illegal immigrants, including infants, and requires police to check the immigration status of anyone "suspected" of being in this country illegally.[1]  If implemented nationwide there could be hope for survival as a nation.                       Videos You Should Watch At Least Once   The Liberal Obama Feds are looking for a way to nullify this beautiful law.                                                           An update from  Oklahoma     Oklahoma law passed, 37 to 9, had a few liberals in the mix, an amendment to place the Ten Commandments on the front entrance to the state capitol.  The feds in D.C., along with the ACLU, said it would be a mistake. Hey this is a conservative state, based on Christian values...!   HB 1330 Guess what.......... Oklahoma did it anyway.     Oklahoma recently passed a law in the state to incarcerate all illegal immigrants, and ship them back to where they came from unless they want to get a green card and become an American citizen.  They all scattered.  HB 1804.  Hope we didn't send any of them to your state.  This was against the advice of the Federal Government, and the ACLU, they said  it would be a mistake.                      Videos You Should Watch At Least Once Guess what.......... Oklahoma did it anyway. Recently we passed a law to include DNA samples from any and all illegal's to the Oklahoma database, for criminal investigative purposes.  Pelosi said it was unconstitutional   SB 1102 Guess what........ Oklahoma   did it anyway. Several weeks ago, we passed a law, declaring  Oklahoma as a Sovereign state, not under the Federal Government directives.  Joining  Texas , Montana   and Utah   as the only states to do so.          More states are likely to follow:  Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, the Carolina's, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, West Virginia, Mississippi, Florida. Save your confederate money, it appears the South is about to rise up once again.  HJR 1003 The federal Government has made bold steps to take away our guns.  Oklahoma, a week ago, passed a law confirming people in this state have the right to bear arms and transport them in their vehicles.  I'm sure that was a setback for the criminals.  The Liberals didn't like it -- But ...... Guess what............ Oklahoma did it anyway.   Just this month, the state has voted and passed a law that ALL driver's license exams will be printed in English, and only English, and no other language.  They have been called racist for doing this, but the fact is that ALL of the road signs are in English only.  If you want to drive in Oklahoma , you must read and write English.  Really simple. By the way, the Liberals don't like any of this either. Guess what...who cares... Oklahoma is doing it anyway.   If you like it, pass it on, if you don't then delete it.

When Dogs Drive

It is really amazing what dogs can learn these days. I am just wondering if they got their drivers licence at the obedience school or at the State Patrol Post.

Blue Ridge Lake Summer Levels

Blue Ridge Lake is almost back up to previous levels after being down in the wintertime due to maintenance on the Blue Ridge Dam. While the lake is not yet as full as it has been in the past. The lake is full enough for fishing and recreational activities.

Boats and jet skis are now a common sight out on the beautiful waters. As visiting vacationers and locals as well are enjoying the refreshing waters of Blue Ridge Lake, which is fed by the Toccoa River, which flows down out of the mountains of Fannin County.

Swimmers are also taking advantage of the lake’s returning levels. Morganton Point, one of the top swimming areas on Blue Ridge Lake as had swimmers enjoying the lake as late as 9:00 pm over the fourth of July weekend. While the lake is not yet reached the sand beach of Morganton Point, swimmers have only to make a small trek to the waters edge.

For those who may be wondering about Blue Ridge Lake and whether it is ready for vacationers to enjoy, I say come on in the water is fine.

Casey Anthony Not Guilty

Caylee Anthony found not guilty of murdering her child. If Casey did not kill little Caylee, who killed her. Prosecution gave in my opinion a very damning case against Casey, however may we hope that she was innocent. While I do not have all the facts, I am shocked by the verdict.

UFO Sighting in Blue Ridge

I was looking out my front door at around 9:30 tonight and seen a bright light appear in the southern sky just above the mountains south of my house. It was bright like a star and just appeared out of nowhere. I was about to go outside and try to observe the light with my telescope when the light just vanished. What was the light, could have been a jet that was moving in and out of the clouds or was it a ?????
It is a mystery, my oldest son insists that it could not have been a jet, me, I don't know. All I know is that a light appeared in the sky, then it vanished. That makes it a UFO, an unidentified flying object! Wow, UFO sighting in Blue Ridge, Ga. Wonder what will be next for our quaint little town.
