Judge Judy – Here’s Who You Support With Taxes

Posted on October 9, 2011 by Brian Gallimore

Here is a clear illustration of whats going on with a good number of college students. This same attitude applies to almost any welfare program. When you are spending other people’s money, it doesn’t take long to alter your value system. The government (or anyone else) can not manage the situation enough to fix this problem, it is a basic philosophical issue that speaks to the reason socialism fails.

Scott Adams Stole my Idea!

Posted on October 4, 2011 by Brian Gallimore

So Scott may have given it more thought than I did, and he might possibly be closer to the genius end of the intelligence scale than I am, and it might also be possible that he actually records and publishes his thoughts when I just skip that part, but this is my idea!  (government run by social networking tools)    Scott Adams Blog: Constitutional Convention 10/03/2011.

Wisconsin Judge Rules No Right to Own a Cow or Drink Its Milk

Posted on October 4, 2011 by Brian Gallimore

WI Judge to Zinniker, FTCLDF: No “Fundamental Right to Own a Cow, or Consume Its Milk… Am I Making Myself Clear?”
~ David Gumpert

Wisconsin seems to be one of the favorite places to live for socialists in the USA. Common thought is that you have a ‘right’ to other peoples stuff, but don’t have a right to do as you please with your own property. (I guess the Declaration of Independence doesn’t mean much to them)  Anyway, news like this is still surprising.  I hope the citizens of Wisconsin fight this judge and come to the side of reason and freedom.  I can’t help but to think back to the commercial “California cows are happy cows” and think, yup, Wisconsin cows must hate living among all these liberal nutjobs!

Using the Soil Cube to Start Seeds

Posted on October 2, 2011 by Brian Gallimore

In an effort to get more vegetables planted this fall, I decided to start a few trays indoors using the soil cube I won earlier this year.  (not having much luck starting from seed directly out in the garden)  Pictures of the finished cubes are posted on the northtexasvegetablegardeners.com website.  I hope that keeping them in the garage until they are big will help out— easier to keep them moist and they stay protected from all the critters out in my garden.

For the family, here is a video of Bryson trying his hand at the soil cube tool:
