The final entry (political yuck)

Yes.. The final entry with political horseshit as the main subject... 
At least until the next one that is but what more can I say that hasn't already been said??  Alright.. I was on the fence before the final of the conventions were done.. I'm not anymore.. I will vote for.. TRUMP.. That's right.. You heard that right, and here is why.. He speaks his mind, and that means he will say anything, he's a wild card.. He really isn't republican.. He is running on the ticket of republican but he really is running under the guise of his own party.. The Trump party which bucks the trends of the real republican party.. Now true I did put him down for a lot of things in the past but what flipped me was his going against everything the republican party is about.. We need someone in there to shake things up in Washington and he might be the guy to do it...  


Seriously how does someone get flipped from being more democrat to republican.. Disenfranchise comes to a head when the truth is Trump looks like he isn't part of the establishment and he isn't.. HE isn't, but the people pulling his strings are.. He has some of the more staunch republican backers.. The Kochs aren't touching him with a ten foot pole and thankfully that is the case (YET)..  When I say I am for Trump... I'm not... I wanted to see if I could type that without puking on the keyboard.. Mission Accomplished but to be completely honest if I knew he wouldn't be folded into the republican mold the second he takes the oath of office I would vote for him.. I would like to see things get shaken up in Washington..  But at the price of eventual nuclear war.. No thanks.. I'd like to see my Nieces girls at least get old enough to drive..

How do you flip your vote from Hill to Trump??  How can you decided that voting for a third party would actually be good??  I would like to see a third party be relevant in fact I'd like to see three to five different parties be out there, and not just in name (green party) but to be a serious threat to win the white house and not be used to take votes away from whomever, to make the other candidate say well if that wasn't there I would have won.. 

And then there are the ongoing and eventual scandals forthcoming.. Guess who will be more believable??  For all the bad things they are saying about Trump and equally bad about Hillary but who do you believe...


When Donald trump said this above quote I thought how stupid.. He lost zero and in fact likely gained from such a quote.. He has said other things equally asinine, my favorite being he would use whatever force he felt he needed including nuclear....   WHAT???   He said that???  He did say it, not sure when but it is that kind of attitude that turned me completely off from voting for him.. Use of nuclear weaponry might sound to a lot of people like so what, they would be tactical battle front type.. Any use could open up either side to escalate.. like I have said, the best thing about a nuclear war is it will only last an hour..  Two at the very most.. After that there won't be anyone around to say I told you so...

Last entry plus two..

This is the comment I made on the Trump movie  that is now making it out of mothballs.. : This was on YouTube earlier.. Because I watched it.. I will eventually watch that new Hillary propaganda movie that is out there as well..   Truth is I likely didn't watch the very movie that was being advertised but it was something fairly close to it, the art of the deal was the one I saw, and the one that is out of mothballs is likely close to the same thing if not the exact same thing retitled..  And the movie might be more propaganda as well.. Both movies might be one in the same ideally, and being released this close to the election how much of either can you believe or trust..  My uncles response : Hmmmm! Hillary's is propaganda & Trumps is real???? Are we prejudice or what???  "We"  Are in fact he is so GOP he will go down with the sinking ship rather than grab any life preserver of any kind.. The more Trump opens his mouth the deeper he gets in his own shit... The RNC last week was dark and foreboding, the DNC this week there is a light, it is the sun, and it is good.. If you like being in the dark part of the country you know who to vote for..  Really sad is that they have found that in fact Trump has been working with the Russians during this time.. That is treason and he should be ousted from the election process.. He is running for the highest office in the land and he is treating it like he could get a do over if he screws something up..  Everything sticks from here on..  Say something stupid, do something like he has done and the truth is he shouldn't get to explain, everyone has been around a petulant child.. Trump is that child and if he gets into office, we will see exactly why a twelve year  old should never be elected into the presidency... EVER.. 



%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%  

Man, they started digging up the garden.. That.. When i saw the backhoe starting to dig all I could think is.. "That's not a good thing... The corrections officer that was leaving the facility was forcing himself on one of the inmates and sure enough a friend shows up and beats him to death..  They then cut him up and bury him in the garden area.. The discovery isn't all bad, Red hated the idea that her veggies were being fertilized by someones dead rotting body..  This should get interesting really quick as this season of Orange is the new black has been more focused on the overcrowding issues and divided by racism issues more than anything.. But it's also been  a funny at times season.. The final few shows this season are up coming and should be interesting.. 

Republic of Doyle ended last night.. 77 of the best shows I've seen in a while.. The series is kinda like Castle but in certain instances better.. Set in Newfoundland, this really was a good series.. Watch it if you can.. 

 I watched a few movies recently.. Rewatched I should say.. I'm currently watching the Lethal Weapon   series, there are 4 on the netflix, and right now I'm getting ready for number 4.. The first 2 are the best by far, but  3 was ok..  Watched Armageddon, mostly because I want to watch it yet again..  Who would call this movie Drama??  It's anything but drama, strictly drama.. Almost from the very start is is a comedy and stays that way.. What a farce but fun anyway.. 

Phenomenon with John Travolta who's mind gets awakened from a strange light from a UFO.. Actually it is a brain tumour/aneurysm that causes a simple person to open his mind and give him the ability to suddenly be smart, or retain anything he reads.. And reads a lot.. But you know, who's to say that couldn't happen.. It's one of those movies I like to watch every now and then.. 

Ok, by now you know I'm a sap.. I like certain shows and have watched them again, I did that with Breaking bad (watched it three times now, will likely watch it again) and the school farce One Tree Hill..  I am rewatching Friday Night lights again..  I have issues with the story.. During either this season I'm on now or the previous season they make mention the size of the town, "what there's only two hotels in town..."   Two hotels and an Aplebes, so this town is relatively small.. So how come in the next season they force a second school in the district to open??  They suddenly get money for such a move because in the current season Buddy wants to erect a jumbo tron for the games to be watched on.. The superintendent wants to put the money towards rehiring some of the staff that was let go..  Make sense much??  Hollywood tv show??  I guess, it's not marred in reality.. I guess that's a good thing..  It is a tv show after all..

(P.S. this entry response to the Benghazi BS has yet to get a response from the two staunch republicans that brought it up.. 

 Same with the George Carlin misfire by my uncle, although it was a share of another site meme type of thing.. Hey, it looked like a good thing to post, but it was so wrong it wasn't even funny.. Not that the George Carlin bit wasn't funny, it was quite funny, very observant but then he was very much that way.. )

Last plus one entry general election

Oh.. Did that piss you off??  The last entry said last entry general election and it was the last one for yesterday..  Today is a whole new set of worms being set up by the big cheese, the big worm himself  DONALD JUMPING JACK TRUMP... He is going to be the end of our democracy if he gets elected..  But that's not what I'm here to talk about today..

President George W Bush had his own foibles, and the main one was he was never held accountable for all the deaths that happened the way Hillary Clinton has been.. And guess what??  She came through all the with hunts alright.. I wonder if Bush's secretary of state could have done the same with all these he would have had to defend.. How many times did she defend herself??  and that was for one time BENGHAZI... Talk about a witch hunt.. And still people throw that out there.. a Guy I know put the four names of the men who lost their lives on his FB page.. I got pissed off and put this on mine and said every time I see a Benghazi entry from someone I'm going to post this... I did it when my uncle was high and mighty about his Killary crap..    Also yesterday he posted something about a sight that had a meme with a video on it by George Carlin that said "George Carlin schools Obama on American PC or something like that..  My uncle might be growing tired of what I did next.. You see the clip by Mr. Carlin was done back before Obama was in office, it had to be because in 2008 George Carlin passed away, before Obama took office..  That video wasn't directed at him, it was directed at us.. All of us, he was poking fun at the directing America was going, and that was while GWB was in office.. Or Bill Clinton, or   whoever was in office when that was taped.. The sight was full of shit.. Needless to say I haven't heard from him yet.. Same as with this meme above..  I can find things to dispute the idiocy that gets posted on Facebook, just give me a minute..

Entry final (general election rant AGAIN)

Will this election ever get here??  What is the worst part of the general election here in America??  The answer..  ALL OF IT... From the speculation  "will he run or won't he"  to the funding the testing to see if running would be a good idea.. JEB who did you consult to decide to run, the 8-ball you shook and turned over "dear 8 ball, should I run for president of these united states??  The answer is fuzzy at this time"  Sounds like a good idea, i'll have a go then... 
I've said this from the first of May or even before that, Trump can win and likely will.. Here's how it can happen beyond rigged election machines.. Remember the Brexit vote that Britain had to either stay or go from the EU???  A great number of people voted to leave simply because they didn't think very many people would vote to leave.. Well that kind of mentality is why they get to leave or might leave the EU.. likely they will leave eventually..  Well here in America that same mentality will get Trump elected.. "There's very little difference between the parties.."  I've written about this before, there is very little difference between the two parties when you are young and stupid you can vote for a republican because you are young and struggling to fit in in every way there is.. What I don't get is if you turn fifty and you will still vote republican then your parents must be dead, good for you, or your parents are alive and you want to frustrate them for four more years.. 
The truth is there isn't a huge difference between Trump and Clinton this year.. Except that Hillary tends to think before she answers questions and Trump likes to just go off blabbering about how great he is.. He has a rubber shoulder socket, patting yourself on the back like that would hurt a normal person..   If Trump gets elected "It's all of us who are going to get fucked"..  That is almost a funny line, and it would be worth a quick laugh if it weren't so true..  The truth is if Trump is in with putin even remotely as they are saying he is then there is a really good chance that they will be inviting us all to a barbque quite soon, and you will all have to go because you will ALL BE ON THE MENU.. I'm not joking when I say that having Trump as the president will get us into a nuclear war.. No doubt at all.. First of all He has said he wants to negotiate the debt down with China.. That's a great idea, "they will take something, won't be all we owe them"  You know the stories are surfacing now where he stiffs people who do things for him..  So many things like that should be reason not to vote for him.. In fact most of the things he said in the first month after announcing he was running would have gotten any other candidate laughed off the ticket right then and there...

Tell Donald to show us his tax returns for the past ten years.. Why??  Because four years ago when Romney was running and said he wasn't going to show his tax returns it was Trump who said he must show them.. Fast forward to this year and Trump is saying he won't show his tax returns, they aren't relevant.. Well show them and let us decide how relevant they might be..  Seriously this should be one of the biggest sticking point to trump being anywhere close to being in the race at  all by September.. But you know what???  Even if he shows them and it shows he has lied about everything he will still be alright..  Even if he were to go out to the middle of wallstreet and kill someone he would still be alright..  Do you know why???  People love him.. They love his open vulgarity and is opening a lot of people to be as rude and vulgar as he is.. THAT IS THE DONALD TRUMP AMERICA..   You don't like that then vote democrat across the board.. Not just president.. EVERYTHING...  Truth is the two candidates might be fairly close in the current day of well I "heard" she did this or that.. The email scam.. The Benghazi thing...  His being sued by so many thing we can't keep count. But when it comes down to who I trust it isn't who I trust but rather which party I trust as a whole.. That would be the democrat party..  "BUT SHES A CROOK, SHE HELPED KILL ALL THOSE IN BENGHAZI"   she didn't pull the trigger, but more to the point there was no way to get troops   moved to help in time..  To me it is the difference in the way the two parties represent the people.. The RNC (republican national conference) it was the country is doom and gloom.. The DNC  (democratic national convention)  the sun is shining.. Sorry I tend to like to go where the sun is shinning..

My uncle loves...  LOVES....  L...O....V...E..S... The second amendment.. He just loves it to the point of obsession..  That's fine.. Hey I'm all for the second amendment and more to the point, what it meant to that time..  A way to protect the homeland that was in such an infancy and threatened by every other country out there.. if you love America and our now new way of life I implore All country men to get a hold of a gun... Guess what??  There isn't that much of a threat against countries taking over America right now, not that kind where your musket will stop anything..

When he placed this on his FB page I read it, says the same thing as it always has..  The wording is so ... Early government, mostly it was to prevent another country from taking over the homeland.. Nobody wanted it then and nobody wants it now.. That is fine but I am getting tired of the mass shootings making the headlines worldwide.. And it is usually us getting the headlines.. Is there a way to stop it from happening??  Highly doubtful.. The "Dirty Harry" mentality is really taking over.. Just yesterday I read about a guy in a movie theater who was being pestered by a little boy kicking the back of his seat.. He likely asked the boy to stop and when he didn't got into an altercation with his father.. Well things turned and so the guy took out his gun and pointed it at the kids father and said well now what are you going to do??   Whip out his gun and say shall we see.. That last bit was my idea of what happens if we are all packing heat.. Seriously is this the America we want to live in??   The second amendment was written when all we had were musket guns.. I honestly think had George Washington known what was going to happen with guns he would have said this is written in stone.. In fact I think the forefathers thought we could tweak every aspect of the  constitution..    But the second amendment is like a commandment.. That shit is etched in stone.. NO ONE SHALL TOUCH IT...  I still say the worst mass shooting will happen eventually that will make the congressmen who the NRA is paying will eventually say it isn't worth it any more..    I hate it will take a carnage like that to change this country, but if the congress won't do it, then state by state it will be done to the point where congress in Washington will have no bearing on the people they are supposedly there to serve..

(P.S.  just a quick one.. on the election part of this post..  Another reason to not elect Trump, he will tow the line of the entire party which is to eliminate (repeal) Obamacare..  Trouble is they don't have anything remotely ready to be used, so when they repeal all they will do is screw a lot of Americans and make that many more not trust the government..   I keep waiting for the next civil war to break out.. The have nots or have nothings versus those who have some form of the American dream.. )

Political horse shit

Say what you want about Trump, he is electable.. Sadly he is very electable and even the closeted haters of Trump will likely vote for him.. Closeted haters you ask..  Those would be the past presidents who are staunch republicans who say they hate Trump and don't trust him, they are party first voters no matter what.. I don't even think they have ever even looked at the other side of the voting machine ballot..   Would I vote for him??  After the last entry my vote would be no then and hasn't changed and won't change..  I don't trust the republican party.. Do I trust Hillary (Killary as most republicans call her, ooh so smart they are.. clever)  my answer to do I trust her.. I don't trust her or wouldn't trust her with my emails but she won't be handling my emails so..  I trust her about as far as i could throw here, but there is no toss a lying bitch contest in the olympics so why worry??  

 Sadly I live in one of the 95% poorest counties in a state that will go downhill as quickly or even quicker than Kansas did.. Our governor is trying to destroy the economy here as fast as he can cutting taxes on farmers..  That is great, just don't complain when that kidney tester road starts to jar the piss right out of you.. 


Is anyone watching the RNC sober??  Seriously there are so many drinking games to watch it by.. Every time they bash the current administration on everything take a sip.. Not a shot, we don't want to give you alcohol poisoning..   


The way they make it sound like obama is to blame for the shootings that are going on now.. Oh he says it is ok to shoot police officers..  No he didn't and he never did, but these lousy ass bags on a certain news channel (FNC) sure make it sound that way..

I am in agreement with Bernie Sanders, lets pay our teachers all a living wage.. Why do we treat these people worse than we do inmates at a prison.. They are our first line of defense trying to shape the criminals to NOT be into crime.. Lets try to keep them from going that route.. It starts with education.. And giving free tech school college is another great idea..  We don't need no education...  Yes, it would be better to have education.. 


Not everything George W Bush did in 7 and a half years was bad.. But notice I said seven and a half years??  A full two terms is 8 years..  GWB gave up in August of his last term.. He was lost and really no one liked him because he had no idea what to do with anything.. He got us into two wars with no end in sight.. In Iraq, every bar they set for our military our guys cleared with no problem.. They found Sadam and that was the main objective.. But when our guys got him, they thought they would be going home.. Nope, you guys will stay there forever.. What does that do for moral?? 

Gop Outrage???  There is none when their man is in office.. Get a democrat in there and they can find things wrong everywhere..   Does Hillary handle her emails very well???   Who really knows what was on them... 


And then there was Benghazi..  The stone around Hillary's neck that could be why she loses the election.. Hey I'm not saying that those 4 peoples lives weren't important.. They were.. But look, Bush had plenty of issues like that..  And really 9/11....  Need we say more...

Ten days and counting

I honestly thought about not using the computer over the last ten days of the promotional time period of the GWX thing...  While I got the X for a little while, when it developed an issue and locked up I went back to VII  and haven't looked back...   

I developed an issue with i-tunes as well I suppose any of the music files players.. Placing the music into every group folder was the most logical thing I could do and was a reason it took a little while longer to load the music.. But at that it didn't set the music the way I wanted it in i-tunes and I was bummed and so for a few days I looked at what was causing this to be this way.. Then as I was about to give up I started to ask my niece if she could help and sent her an IM via FB and shortly after that I figured it out on my own.. There is a label system on every song, a metadata system that if it isn't loaded will be ignored by i-tunes and placed in the also ran section under every song that is in a set album..  Bummed me out a bit, there is no quick fix, every song has to be checked for this.. Well not every song, rather a lot of songs that were gotten via a bootleg type of acquisition as it were..  Music from YouTube and music sharing sites that are now defunct.. So that will be done and take a while to do..  Speaking of getting music by way of YouTube, I really don't think I will ever have every song I want on that flash drive.. But you never know...

This might be an odd thing to hear me say.. I could see voting for Trump... There.. i said it..  But here let me explain a few things here..
I could see voting for Trump if he were Democrat, I mean more than Hillary except that he is vulgar and that mentality scars the hell out of foreign leaders.. "Good" you say.. Well no, you see the current president is touring the  world and shoring up diplomatic ties and trying to let leaders know that if Trump does win that there is a system in place that he can't just start a war willy nilly with whoever pokes fun at his hair on Friday..  There are other branches of the government that have to ok any use of military..   I like some of the things Trump has said, one of the biggest is cutting off funding to countries that threaten to bomb us or have carried out terrorist events on us (Saudi Arabia, I'm thinking you are tops of the list for 9/11)  Grudges are the shits aren't they?? and I would agree with cutting funding to them.. And other countries as well..  The crack he made about using all weapons at our disposal in a conflict, including nuclear weaponry.. That more than scares me because I think it would be a huge mistake to think that any country we bomb wouldn't have ties to any country that might hate them but likely don't like us more..

(Racism was almost dead before Obama???  Really??  I hadn't noticed racism that much at all until Trump started his vulgar run at the white house)

What is the greatest dig on Trump being the next president is he is a republican.. There are a lot of people out there who feel like I did back when Bill Clinton got into office.. There is no difference between the two parties..  There are small differences in the parties, but fairly great depending on your age grouping.. If you are pre 50 years old you don't notice any difference at all.. Who cares who is in office.. I got my beer...  But as you get over 50 you see retirement there at the end of that still seemingly long tunnel.. But that tunnel isn't nearly as long as it was thirty five years ago.. You might want to start paying attention to who does what as president and your congressmen.. Saying I don't care should slowly stop being in your mind.. The older i have gotten and helping take care of my mom has made me pay a lot closer attention to the government.. President Bush (GWB) got us into two wars that one is still going, the other has yielded the worst terrorist group since the taliban and we are in a bigger world of shit than we were before 9/11.. The economy isn't that good.. Want to see signs of how good you are doing, drive a car on the highway, and test your kidneys, if they don't hurt then you are either still young or you live where they still give a shit.. out here in the boonies the highways is cracking and the bridges are.. Well if you like playing craps, you know what I mean..

Turn the clock back.. Let's make America Great again.. This is the TEA party idealism.. They want America to be great in the sense of turning the clock back to the fifties.. Trump himself has made the statement he would love to turn the internet off completely.. Well that would certainly fix a few things.. But it would really piss a lot of people off.. Thinking a world without the internet now would be at least turning the clock back to the 80's... Seriously...


So can Trump win the white house??  Truth is it shouldn't even be close, but Hillary has such skeletons in her closet and recent events are making her win that much harder.. She is her own worst enemy.. Who will she get as her running mate??  It will have to be someone who shores up the ticket big time.. There was little chance that it could be Sanders but it looks more and more like it might have to be him.. While Elizabeth Warren would be the ultimate choice, she would have to leave her seat in congress to do so (if they win)..  There likely is others but to shore things up, solidify the ticket it has to be a big name.. Someone who will instill trust in the party (ticket) as a whole..   Trump chose Pense, it wasn't his choice it was the parties.. He likely would have like to have Sarah Palin.. But I think the powers that be likely said if you want to lose in November pick word salad mastery Palin.. If you want to have a snowballs chance, pick Pense.. 

I saw myself as republican back when the choice was Carter or Reagan.. I voted Reagan because I felt the Iranian hostage crisis had gone on long enough and it seemed Carter had no way to get them out.. Turns out he did get them out but on the day Reagan took the oath to screw the country up.. I would have voted for Carter had I known he was the reason the banks and financial system was going to be deregulated under the next republican president.. What is another reason not to vote Trump?? Well lets see.. Repealing Obamacare, the republicans vow to undo everything that Obama has done.. And I do mean everything.. As far as we have come forward, reversing everything is what would happen.. The open dialog with countries that we are becoming friendly with.. Iran nuclear agreement will be reversed although it won't matter, it will still be in place by the smarter countries out there.. Obamacare will be repealed and replaced by???  Tough shit, you thought your government would care no matter who is in the white house well... GUESS AGAIN YOU STOOGES...


How new is this blog entry??   This meme tells you it is brand spankin' new.. This happened last night.. Plagiarism at it's finest..  Melania says she wrote that speech all by herself..  she did likely write it all by herself but likely ran aground and then watched a few speeches on the YouTube to just get a few ideas, not to have one idea dominate he speech but it was getting late and writing your own speech is hard to do.. Donald: "Just watch YouTube, get a few ideas and go from there"  Melania "Ok I weeel  and Donald...  I yawn..  I yawn.. is that where Iran got it's name from?"  Better copy a good speech then, she is smart but married Donald.. Stupid as hell.. But there it is then..  The RNC is the continued train wreck the GOP doesn't want but you notice how many top notch congress  members are there??  That's right.. NONE.. And no previous presidents either.. Good luck The Donald.. Hope you join Nixon.. That's a ticket I would vote for.. A dead Nixon and a dead Trump...

Not mine.. idea..

So seriously, what will the new blog look like??  The old infinite Improbability is completely gone.. Every aspect and the videos that were there are deleted not just set to draft and held on to for possible re use..  They are GONE..   And the entries are all gone.. The early entries that were there but not set to be seen.. It was a way to blow off steam at the time a certain event happened where my back got wrenched seriously..  All those are gone.. I did read them a little.. What a whiner I was (am)...  Whatever.. Anyway the blog will now enter the time of conversion.. What a load.. Actually I didn't know how easy it would be to convert the page, I could have done it quite literally in a few hours but.. I didn't know that.. It is just like building the blog from scratch and it took a few minutes then.. All of everything is set to go.. Transitioning the blog will take only a few minutes as long as everything is set.. It will go completely black the day before it goes live... I'm going to test the layout on yet another blog I have that I test things out.. Can you see it being done??  Why would you want to see it under construction??  But I get the idea of seeing what the new II will look like..  Right now the blog is being called The White Album   er ...  The....  er The big Tease...  which seems to fit right now..  For the next few weeks the background will change almost daily... But will begin to look the way it eventually will.. You'll start to get what it will be about over time and then it will be perfectly clear what it is about when it is.. About what it is about.. Drum roll please...

Don't get me wrong

Wrong... right... east... west.. Listen, getting Von Miller signed was a huge deal.. Without him they win the west division again but it would be closer.. With Von it should be a runaway and hopefully a repeat trip to the super bowl and a repeat visit with the Panthers (possibly)  but who knows, could be the team won't make it.. It takes a lot to get there and seeing the Broncos without Peyton Manning under center is going to be way different.. My prediction (since I'm batting a thousand here) is that they have Sanchez as the starter all season unless he has an issue develop.. What would that be??  Sanchez has had issues through his career.. Simean could be the starter after preseason, he has the ability to be..  Lynch could be the starter after preseason bu more than likely he is a midseason starter.. If the team has troubles and is looking up from the under .500 mark Lynch could start making starts or second half showings here and there until he starts in November free and clear.. It's going to be odd to see a QB shuffle thing, since we have seen nothing but the number 18 back there more often than not..  But it should be interesting and I do think the team could be able to repeat this year..

Memes on the internet..

Memes on the internet.. My blog here gets a true workout from them because without them, my blogs would be full of pictures I make.. how fun is that??  none at all.. trust me..  This first one I want to write about is very interesting.. :

Now this sounds very noble to do, "jump in there and help a struggling police officer"  Yeah I would, that's what all decent Americans are supposed to say and trust me that is what I would say.. Put in a real world situation and let us just say a police officer is struggling with a perp and they are about the same size.. But let's just say you came upon this little situation and the officer is struggling because he can't quite reach any of his weapons to help in the matter, the perp has the upper hand presently and it looks like it could get ugly.. The officer is struggling and the perp is going for the officers gun.. You think to yourself "well on that meme I said I would jump right in there and help," well here's your chance, what do you do??  Seriously there is nothing you can do.. Help the officer, so you jump in there grab the perps hands and try to keep him from getting the officers gun, but then ten seconds into your "help" another officer shows up and not knowing who is doing what he gets in there to help his fellow officer and what he does is taser the stack.. Hits plain clothed people directly first you, the "helper"  then the other guy who is hopped up on meth, which only pisses him off more...  You get the full first charge, the true perp gets a secondary half charge..  He just gets pissed off, you get your bell rung from hitting the pavement head first cracking your skull, you will need months of therapy to be able to walk again.  Was it worth it... Sure you say.. Anything for the police..  And the perp, he gets away..  Why??  Because he has a great lawyer and the law is on his side.. As weird as that may seem to be you actually end up helping him instead of the officer you were meaning to help...


The United states is currently headed for new racial tension and the political situation isn't helping things.. You have Donald Trump who is making it seem like the hicks are seeing that they can call people names and it is alright.. Well it isn't alright, in fact while political correctness might be out of hand, going back to the playground mentality is  NOT ok..   But that is what we will have with a vulgar president who doesn't hide his mentality..

Go back to when Trumps father got his mother pregnant with him and prevent it from happening.  Seriously we need Trump in this election cycle the main reason being Hillary isn't that attractive of a candidate for those who saw and witnessed Bernie Sanders.. He was way too honest and wanted nothing but good for the American way of life.. Free education, isn't that insane???  Yes, because if people get educated then they get off of welfare, and there is nothing the GOP loves more than dangling that carrot in front of poor people and threatening to take away the support structure that they set up oh so many years ago.. Either free education of an affordable healthcare system.. either one or oh what the hell why not both... Bernie was a great candidate and almost pulled off the greatest upset ever in politics..

This meme tells it all.. Open carry doesn't work.. A good guy with a gun and kids and a wife he loves isn't going to risk his life for what he has no idea what is going on about.. I've said that many times in many other shootings.. Had someone gotten his Rambo on in Dallas this would likely have been a huge mess.. Same with Orlando..  Geraldo.. GO FUCK YOURSELF...


I have an uncle who is so pro republican.. And so anti Obama and he just can't help himself.. It isn't so much that Obama is democrat, it's that he is Mr. blackenstein...  He hates blacks, he was brought up that way.. These past seven plus years have been him hating Obama and everything he represents.. Well here we were getting to the point where its almost weeks and then just days until he is replaced and yet my uncle wants him out NOW!! ...  Gees when Hillary gets in will he hate her too???  yes, very likely..  But.. When they were here visiting a few years back he accidentally let a that damn Obama slip once when I was there and I simply asked what would have been a better solution.. He had no idea what would be better.. truth is these "god damn  Obama love to hate him types are actually more pissed off because their party has no solution to any issue.. Absolutely no clue..  So sad,  I have gotten to the point where I actually think they are in the closet lovers of what Obama is doing..   Not really but.. you never know..

(P.S. I know it is the politically correct thing to do to say I would jump in to help an officer.. I don't honestly know what I could do to help him.. This is a real life situation, life or possibly death.. At he very least life altering.. Yes if there was an officer having trouble I would like to think I would help him but yet another way to look at it is what if the officer was off his nut and the perp was actually trying to keep from being shot??  So many ways to look at things... )

This timer SUCKS

I got this timer back in May so that I could help our nephew get off the computer at a reasonable hour, say before two in the morning..  And when I was looking for a timer I thought digital because it might be the perfect device for shutting off the router hence stopping his reason to be on the internet/computer.. We were in another town where  walmart was and I checked the timers out.. The town is bigger and has a biiger walmart and so the selection might be greater than the one we go to weekly.. I had seen on walmart dot com what I was looking for, sort of, and so I thought I'd look.. Truth is the price was the dead give away on this timer, it was under double digit so why not try it.. Most everything I look to buy now in the electronics category gets a thorough looking at on the internet, I check everything about it, but mostly the stars are the thing that I look for, anything with two stars is a buy at your own risk..

This timer seemed easy enough to program.. Hell if it's like the vcr it will be cake.. Most people couldn't program a vcr in the day but I found it extremely easy.. So with this time.. it defies logic on how to program it, mostly because yo program the off time on time first, then the off..  that isn't the hard part, getting the auto on or auto off to be set and why they had the settings in the first place is beyond me.. Auto off seemed redundant but it was the thing that turned it on.. But it wasn't, it was the auto on. No that isn't it either. You see there is so much confusion that I gave up.. But on the webpage where it is sold is a video that explains exactly how to program it.  I have to warn you there is a true tell of a reason to leave this thing on the shelf.. don't even think of buying it...  http://www.walmart.com/ip/Generic-WC2011-Indoor-Digital-Timer-1-Outlet/46683951   Two stars.. I know...  Scroll down to the video and watch how to program this turdtastic thing... Good luck.. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to get how to program it.. It might help if you are but it also might not either..

The other day I tested it to see if I had the time set on it to have it turn something off so I plugged in a small fan and it is set to just about midnight.. Lo and behold it shut the fan off.. Got to be yesterday morning and tested to see if the timer went to the on position and lo and behold....  it didn't... Why not???  Well this timer has a battery backup, it is the main power source to click to on and off, it actually is just a gate for the power to be turned on or off, it uses absolutely NO POWER AT ALL  from the outlet.. This blew me away.. The battery is within there and when I did this before the timer reset itself to zero hours and zero minutes... What this means is it took everything in the battery to run the timer switch.. And it did work fine for a week, I had it set to quarter to eleven and turn back on sat eleven fifteen, figuring hopefully half an hour would frustrate him into giving up.. It also meant I couldn't watch anything either on my roku.. Such a small sacrifice to get him off the computer at a reasonable hour.. He never said a word about it that week.. Why??  He's supposed to be off by ten thirty.. Saying there was an issue with the internet at about 11 would be him admitting he was on later than he is supposed to be..    So Last night I was fed up with this timer thing and decided to pop it open and look for that disc battery.. But how to "pop" it oped.. The screws are triangle heads on them.. WHAT IS A TRIANGLE HEAD???  I've never seen a triangle head before.. i've seen the classic slotted, phillips or a star, but triangle???  What is that about.. I figured it out, its just a fancy way to keep regular people out of their device.. It is actually a very small flat head (slotted) head will do the damages to get these taken off.. Get the thing open and here is where it stays weird.. There is so nearly nothing to this thing.. I've never seen so little electronic board and pieces.. There were capacitors and when I saw the bigger capacitor and couldn't get the board off of the side housing it was resting on I had to try to figure out where the battery was without getting a clear look.. There wasn't a disc battery.. Not that I could tell.. There looked like a place for one but it also looked like an old transister... In a timer.. For whatever the reason.. I concluded that it was a capacitor that was the power source for this thing to work.. A large capacitor (large being relative to this thing is rather small) can hold quite a bit of power but they run out of power fairly fast because they are NOT  a battery, they act like a battery in certain devices.. My old alarm clock had this rather than a battery, and most alarm clocks this is standard, there is no need to put a nine volt battery in them like they did in the early days of digital alarm clocks..  So what did I learn from openimg this timer up?? Absofuckinglutelysquat...  Nothing at all.. it was a waste of time and the timer was a waste of five ish bucks.. Try again loser...  and I will.. Gotta have something to curb the monkeys behaviour..

Party time at "home"

Ummm... Well the party was a little out of hand this year at Silverton it looks like.. Actually a lot out of hand.. My feeling is they might not be happy until they do kill someone..  I never noticed it like this when they shot the fireworks from the top there.. But they weren't shot off there this year and to party got out of control..  Hopefully they will just patrol that heavy next year.. I'd hate to see them eliminate the fire works show altogether..

Then it ended..

The music project that I have been working on for the past five weeks was completed Saturday night just as it opened up and dumped.. And the sun was still shinning.. It took three weeks to load the music and two weeks to sort it.. The goal was to load just over 32GB of music although it is actually 29GB..  what a rip.. oh well.. Had it been 32GB directly it would have been about two or three GB shy of enough.. Between the duplicates and songs that just weren't what I wanted anymore either through not liking them anymore or outgrowing the group or the songs, I was able to whittle it down to about the 29GB level.. There was a point where I thought about changing the sample rate on certain music to make it all fit but then thought better of it.. If I don't want the songs in the sample rate designated then there is no need to keep it at all.. 128kbps is the absolute lowest to have to tolerate, although that being said I did take the comedy bits down to 80kbps mostly because it was humour.. The classical music became tricky when I took all the music and put them into a single folder, then had to check for duplicates that way.. Not too bright..  As things were getting close to full it took longer and longer for the music to load on to the flashdrive.. It took ten minutes to load two very short songs.. I've never had that happen before..


On the movie front, this weekend saw a  couple of classic movies be watched..  And  a fairly recent movie that was a scary one.. Nevada Smith with Steve McQueen in it.. Very good old classic western movie.. Then there was Deliverance the classic back country movie with what was then a cast of new comers in Ned Beatty, Jon Voight and Burt Reynolds in a very somber movie for him.. I had never seen that movie before only bits and pieces here and there..  Rumor has it with Jennifer Anniston and the great Shirley McClain in a role that fit her perfectly, there weren't very many  times when the one liner didn't hit hard.. Very funny.. And yes it is a romcom but worth watching.. Then there was the scary movie.. The Big Short..  Not scary in content with a lot of blood and gore but rather subject matter.. It was about the real estate failure of 2008 that started the second worse depression in our countries history.. And the saddest part, the bankers who did that  then and got away with it, ARE DOING IT AGAIN.. That's right, they are doing the same exact thing, calling it something else completely different, but are doing it again.  And this time when it fails it will likely be the end of the United States as well as the rest of the world.. But relax, it took from 1980 something until 2008 to happen, it might take that long to happen again.. Write your congressman and tell him/her that you are worried that wallstreet bankers are going to ruin the economy again.. They will likely laugh in your face the way they did to the guys trying to warn of the bubble in the housing market in the movie.. They didn't try to tell but when the main character started to buy "short" everyone just laughed at him..  But if you watch the very early part of the movie, the failing housing market that was starting then was a sign of things to come..  And he knew 2007 would be the start of the end.. It took a whole year for things to completely collapse but the signs were there.. the bankers could have tried to stop it but likely they all just rode the wave thinking it was false... It wasn't...  This was a very good movie and it goes along quite quickly..

Is that right

In a Facebook entry by someone, they said this..: President Obama dares republicans to do something in the wake of the shootings in Dallas..  My reply was this : "They didn't care about little children when a school got shot up.. I highly doubt they will care about police officers.. You are dreaming if you think they will.."  Another person replied to my comment :  
"As sad as that was there was no need to ban anything" 

to which I replied... :
"Yeah, but reevaluating what gets sold and to who or whom.. To me background checks might not amount to anything but I would at least feel like there was something being done.. The most drastic thing, the worst shooting in our nations history hasn't happened yet.. But when it does will that change how we feel about the second amendment?? That day will come and likely it isn't that far away.. How bad will it be??? For things to change congress mind and the abolishment of the NRA?? How bad do you think it will be?? I can only imagine and hope I'm no where near where it will happen.. It will be beyond horrible.."


That reply has gotten me a lot of likes.. But it does scare me to think just how horrible a shooting  will have to be to have the congress ignore the  NRA or revoke it's chapter, charter or whatever it is... They lobby for guns to be sold but all they have to really do is nothing.. Events like Dallas and Orlando make gun sales happen, it's just a fact..  Seems America is getting worse and you can call it racial divide, I call it gun crazy.. A GUN will fix it, no politician will.. No congressman will...  Buy a gun you disenfranchised yo yo.. It's your turn to shine and be the next Lee Harvey Oswal...

From Facebook

This was from a facebook account and my uncle linked to it..: TUCSON, Ariz. — A man’s Facebook post about a recent traffic stop is going viral.
Steven Hildreth Jr. says he was pulled over by the Tucson Police Department for a broken headlight. When the officer asked if he had any weapons, he told him he is a concealed carry permit holder and had a gun on his right hip.
Because his wallet was in his back-right pocket, the officer needed to disarm him to check his ID. Hildreth wrote about his experience with the officer and posted it to his Facebook page.
Hildreth’s Facebook post has been shared more than 325,000 times.
So, I’m driving to my office to turn in my weekly paperwork. A headlight is out. I see a Tucson Police Department squad vehicle turn around and follow me. I’m already preparing for the stop.
The lights go on and I pull over. The officer asks me how I’m doing, and then asks if I have any weapons.
“Yes, sir. I’m a concealed carry permit holder and my weapon is located on my right hip. My wallet is in my back-right pocket.”
The officer explains for his safety and mine, he needs to disarm me for the stop. I understand, and I unlock the vehicle. I explain that I’m running a 7TS ALS holster but from the angle, the second officer can’t unholster it. Lead officer asks me to step out, and I do so slowly. Officer relieves me of my Glock and compliments the X300U I’m running on it. He also sees my military ID and I tell him I’m with the National Guard.
Lead officer points out my registration card is out of date but he knows my registration is up to date. He goes back to run my license. I know he’s got me on at least two infractions. I’m thinking of how to pay them.
Officers return with my Glock in an evidence back, locked and cleared. “Because you were cool with us and didn’t give us grief, I’m just going to leave it at a verbal warning. Get that headlight fixed as soon as possible.”
I smile. “Thank you, sir.”
I’m a black man wearing a hoodie and strapped. According to certain social movements, I shouldn’t be alive right now because the police are allegedly out to kill minorities.
Maybe…just maybe…that notion is bunk.
Maybe if you treat police officers with respect, they will do the same to you.
Police officers are people, too. By far and large, most are good people and they’re not out to get you.
I’d like to thank those two officers and TPD in general for another professional contact.
We talk so much about the bad apples who shouldn’t be wearing a badge. I’d like to spread the word about an example of men who earned their badges and exemplify what that badge stands for.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

To be completely honest everyone should act responsibly when they get pulled over by a police office, they are after all just doing their job.. Your headlight is out, they are just letting you know.  Truth is when you get pulled over they will give instructions on what to do..  I usually turn off the engine, but they will let you know if they want you to do so.. What me turning off the engine to me means "you got me and I'm not going anywhere..."  if everyone would play nice these officer involved shootings wouldn't happen.. I read where most of the incidents that happen are from mouthy people, mouthing off "Well you're just watching for me, because I got pulled over for DWI two weeks ago..."  Well maybe and maybe not..  Just be more responsible as a driver in all phases, and everything will be all right.. My entry the other day was not meant to condone violence against the police.. Far from it.. I was trying to explain why some of this is happening.. Some is a certain politician mouthing off and calling people names because that is his way of doing things.. He can't be taken seriously about running for the top office in the land and yet here he is a few days from his parties nomination party, the GOP convention in Cleveland..  I can see why some people like him, the disenfranchised are everywhere, but man.. There are things he has said and still says that any sane person with two good brain cells to rub together would say he can't be in the white house.. But what is going to surprise a lot of people is how well he will do in November.. He shouldn't win, but just like the British and the Brexit vote, a lot of those people voted to leave not thinking there was a chance that would be voted for.. And the same exact thing could happen to Trump.. He could win because a lot of people vote for him in protest of a crooked Hillary Clinton..

Here.. You wanna be freaked out about something.. check this out...

"I can't trust any of the current front runners for president this year, I'm gonna set this one out"..  Alright, good idea.. As the conventions get closer to happening and Hillary is getting ready to be investigated yet again...  Here's the question I have.. Let's just say you won't vote for the front runners of the two main party's.. There are other choices??  Yes there are.. Believe it or not..  Bernie Sanders has not yet suspended his campaign, but says Tuesday he will endorse Hillary.. That's assuming she doesn't get convicted of something between now and then and knowing the speed of investigations she should be in the clear but I don't know.. If Hillary gets nailed before November, her running mate would likely get the nod, who do you want in her navigators seat??  I say Elizabeth Warren except that she is way to smart to be there, even so i'd rather she be there..  Now Donald Trump has his running mate of...  Ted Cruz (that's the rumor)  now seriously everyone says I guess we will vote for the Don and Juan ticket???  they are the less criminal (said no one seriously)...  So if that collapses which it should.. Who gets to get the vote now??  I say Bernie, but he endorsed Hillary the crook.. Her running mate is not Elizabeth Warren but rather something that is tastefully a close second to Hillary.. Her husband Bill..  And now he is up for reelection to an office he screwed around in.. But he would be a better choice than the republican duo of Don and Juan.. But then there is the third ticket... Third ticket.. Another party.. If Bernie had run as an independent he would be the most viable to be the third party ticket and might likely be a legitamate contender.. But since he went to the democrat party, he kinda screwed himself out of that notion.. Or did he??  Could he reactivate his campaign. For that matter could just about anyone who was actively seeking to be the president restart their campaigns..  What about the liberal party.. the Green Party??  How about we give up and let Obama stay for two more years and redo the whole crapshoot again???

Again again again

Last night's shooting of police officers was so senseless it can't be believed.. To be that upset about police actions in another town in another state makes no sense at all.. Those actions in those states were equally senseless but why take a gun out and shoot police who had nothing to do with those actions.. It's going to make things even worse nationwide with all police and the people..  But I will say this didn't surprise me at all.. The fact is it seems to be more normal and getting to the point where it is being thought of as normal behavior especially by the people who follow one of the candidates for president.. In fact I was stunned when he didn't say this is how you handle the police wrong behaviour.. He actually said the country is becoming more divided than ever.. Which happens to be true, but the police have to do a better job at their jobs.. Black, white or other, when you pull someone over don't approach the car with your service revolver drawn, shit will happen.. People are shook up when they get pulled over anyway, don't add fuel to the fire with your gun in their sight..  It would scare the hell out of me if I saw a gun in my face late at night.. That time I got pulled over for driving wrecklessly when in fact I was trying to be extremely careful.. it was around two in the morning in early October and the annual Oktoberfest was going on, and I drive my mom to watch my little brothers kids at that time. We got to leave at about two in the morning and as I'm driving down the road this car is in back of me and I tell mom, this is a cop in back of me and I bet he pulls me over.. Within five minutes he did just that.. Why??  Because I came close to the center line, didn't cross over it, but came close to it.. Had he ticketed me there would have been a problem.. But had he approached the car that night with his gun drawn I would have been hard pressed to think my time was over.. No matter what.. You can say what you want.. "well you are white, there's no way you would be shot to death".. how do you know that.. police are gun happy anymore and with good reason but in the case of where I was close to the center line.. I know these guys are trying to fill their quotas of arrests for that night and yes I was close to the center line but there will be people who cross that center line just wait for them.. The police need to get the respect back from the public but good luck in the towns where shit has gone down.. There will likely be riots in the towns where shit got deep but.. Leave your GUNS at home... That's another thing, the guy who got shot in Minnesotta told the police officer he had a conceal carry permit.. WHY DO THAT??? Seriously you just went from a guy that just got pulled over with a broken tail light to a guy that needs a good lead enema.. Don't start the conversation hello officer here's my gun, here's my permit, here's my ... BANG BANG BANG... bang I guess he was shot four times at zero blank range.. Nice officer.. consider that to be your warning.. FIX YOUR TAIL LIGHT...  That's just not right...  Police.. FIX YOUR OPERATIONS MOTIVE... Fix it...

up home (ish)

Some pictures from the paper.. First here this "kink" in the railway ...    Hard to believe it can be this hot, except as you get to Durango which is in fact normally this hot..


Not normally that hot in the 'burg but this year is an exception to the rule.. Hot is what I would say.. cools off at night.. I have a cousin that rode this tram they have up there at Silverton Mountain and we went up there on the forth of July one year, he was wearing shorts, and while he is from the mesa area of Arizona (Phoenix to be exact) he had never gotten as sunburned there as he did on that tram that day..


The forth was to be odd this year..  Well you know they are feuding up there...  So a screw you attitude has taken on a new meaning.. The fireworks display will be,or rather was on the road to the cemetery meaning I hope they didn't catch the trees on fire up there..

I never made it to the top of Kendall...  Sure wish I had though..  There is snow up there even on the 4th of July..

How long..

I've written about this before and with what happened to me yesterday I thought I'd write about it again.. I got  a new SD card for the camera  a few weeks ago, mostly because I thought this old one was getting, well  old.. The old Sd card came with the video camera and has been written and erased for 6 years now give or take a day or two.. And that sounded like a lot to me, and when one day the back side cover plastic bit peeled away I thought, time for a new one.. But then yesterday happened.. What was that you ask, the old SD card I have been using to do the music sorting to try to make the 32GB (29GB) flash drive full of music my taste and everything, the all being all knowing the.. this is IT.. my taste in music this is what you get fuck you if you don't like it my taste my way or the highway ...  you know.. my...  there.. and so I was using the card and that little right protection tab popped out..  Making that card right protected forever..  Then I thought, this thing is just like a regular cassette tape (VHS/audio) with that space tab thing in the left hand corner, put a piece of tape over that and record over that night of too much fun five years ago that could make someones eyes raise.. You know???????  So the same thing can be done here and a quick Google search confirmed this idea, put a piece of tape over that and everything will continue and also should help with that peeling away issue as well.. So then after checking that I also checked something else.. Life expectancy of the SD card.. This should tell me that buying that new SD card was a good idea.. Well it tells me that these cards are good for about 100,000  usings.. That is one hundred THOUSAND uses... usings.. They say five cycles every day for the next fifty years..  I should be good for that one assuming I can find a piece of tape to get it to work again..  Life expectancy of the flash drives, zip drives and therein is a different story.. They have about the same thing.. Don't wash them.. They will still work but why put them through the washer, just to prove a point??    Life expectancy of a computer??  Well shit.. these things fall apart if you fart near them.. So be careful.. fart in the other room.. And don't breathe on it either.. Hold your air from every orifice...    Live long and prosper.. nanu nanu...

(P.S.  shorted the entry there... CDRW as well as DVDRW... These don't have a very long service life at all.. I have found that CDR can last up to only six months.. I've had to redo some and yet there were some that still sounded fine here when I was transferring music to make the ultimate this is it music thing (see above) and they sounded fine.. No chuffing.. Whereas I was transferring certain prepressed by way of record company discs that sucked.. Why?? They were likely bootlegs by someone posing as a record company somehow.. One disc was bought at the record store where I had bought a lot of my music there in town.. He likely didn't know this was happening or maybe law of averages caught up to me.. There was a budget best of by the Kinks that was a ten song best of that included a song I had by someone else covering it.. And then there was Black Sabbath Never Say Die.. Ozzy's final album before leaving the first time..  Every other compact disc seemed perfectly fine..  How do I know cdr go bad beyond music? Afew years ago (quite a few years ago actually) my sister inlaw let me borrow her cdr's that had  a lot of pictures stored on them and there were a few that had nothing on them, although they were labeled that they did have a lot of stuff on them.. Sadly I have some that had that same thing happen.. I do think the best overall way to keep pictures stored is on SD cards.. I read where they will hold the pictures extremely well.. The only way they malfunction (get erased) is if you do something that will make that happen, a fairly drastic situation, card meltdown situation.. Don't dive into a pool of molten lava, not good for you, not good for your SD card.. Static charge/discharge??  This I wouldn't recommend.. mostly because certain pins there might connect to nothing, but why chance it.. Ruin the card for fun???  Why bother.. You screwy shit... )

You love a good argument.. I love any kind of argument

Von Miller... Well the guy wants a new contract and the truth is after what he did in the super bowl he deserves a fine pay day but I would rather he get a bonus for what he did in the super bowl... Elway dragging his feet to award him that money??  Why??  Here's the only reason I can see.. Miller wants to be a Bronco for "life"   meaning he wants to retire in Denver.. That's fine and all but here is the thing, he will have a few more years being at the top of his game.. Elway is just trying to cover his decision, he can give Miller the big pay day but here is the thing.. Miller could get hurt and then you are paying him to ride the bench.. That is the way with all the players, football is a rough sport..  and miller will if he gets resigned be the spotlight player.. But there are a few ways to look at things.. On Facebook I said I don't think Von plays another down for the Broncos ever again, why???  Because you can't bet against injury, they happen and he will likely be hurt this season, law of averages.. Depending on how bad it is he could be out the entire season from when he gets hurt.. Minor injuries are a rarity in pro football..  Von wants that pay day, Denver wants to pay him but guarantee the money after the fact, which can't be done, too bad it can't be, a lot more teams would take a bigger leap of faith giving contracts to players knowing that a certain criteria be met for the player to get the entire money he signed for.. But that's the chance you take when you sign that super star player..  I said I heard that there could be a trade to Cleveland.. He could make his money there, but he likely will never play in the super bowl again, nor even get there again..  If he wants his money and that is that important then go where the money is.. Denver wants to build a team, and to me that makes more sense, so for Von, do you stay the course and demand that "I am a super star" money or do you take a little less and make it to where Denver can build a team this year, and next and next..  Be a roll model and tell them I know I could make more money which I deserve elsewhere, or take a little less and make the TEAM more important..  If he makes the biggest pay check he can it could cost the Broncos in the future building a team.. They begged Manning last year to restructure his deal which he did... A little.. Does Von want to hold the team hostage financially in the latter years of his mega contract??   Watch what you ask for.. Fans can change and turn on you and it can happen quite fast.. Be the mega million dollar mistake after proving you deserve it, get injured and booed...  Can happen, and likely will.. Take a pay cut, put on your big boy jeans and take one for the TEAM...
