Part 1) Personal-November 1, 2010, this is my first post to my brand new blog here. I am going to use it to rant and rave and even post writings I have done for the world to see. I range in subjects when I rant or rave and they can go from everyday life events to political to even discussions on chat sites or more. The Point is to have a place to let out feelings, frustrations, ideas and even facts and stories I do. I hope by the time I get going and set up, it will be a popular blog people will enjoy following. But only time will tell for sure.
My decision to do a blog came to me after I realized I was getting to the end of a Writer’s Course I am currently taking. I did many poems in the past, and now I have done at least a dozen different stories. So many of those and future ones may end up here.
I also like to use Social Sites and I am on Facebook-Tagged-My Yearbook, and MySpace. I have found these sites use full as social connections to old friends and for making new friends also.
2) Political Outlook to me-Today is also the day after Halloween 2010 and the day before the Mid-term Elections for President Obama. Yes I know the Economy is in bad shape and as our President he didn’t fix everything in his time in so far, but damn folks give the man a break. He has tackled HealthCare, which no other President has gotten through, Financial Reforms and more. No American President had ever done more in his first term in my opinion. I believe if he gets a second term and he should just for the efforts he has put forward so far, then he can complete what will indeed be ground breaking steps in American History and it’s economic future.
3) Another area I would look like to get deeper into in a blog and with others is the use of the internet as a Social Connector for different reasons and it’s uses for chats and more. Like I said above I belong to many different online Social Sites. And each one communicates differently according to what they are created as. Facebook does postings to your page, My Space does the same also, but they also tend to go a little overboard with what information they give out on their users. The same can be said of Tagged, My Yearbook, and other sites. Then we have all the messenger services out here, We have Windows Live, Yahoo Messenger, Skype and more. Each controls themselves differently as far as members go. Also available is Pal Talk a free based service that charges for more personal closeness possibilities so to say. Web Cam sites pop up everyday for social purpose, but they also pop up for money making and more. They range from dating services to sex services over the internet, but my question is not why they exist, but is it a good idea to allow it online and how do we protect our children and ourselves from too much information being released? Controls and access to these sites that are adult in nature of any kind need to be tightened. For Ladies and Gentlemen, children of America are the future of America period, as they go and are taught so goes our Great Country.
4) Final Subject today for me, Soon it will be Veteran’s Day in America. As we approach it once more, I ask that people in America acknowledge it and us Veteran’s who served, at least in someway. from the first days of this country, men and women have been sacrificing their lives, their time, their bodies to protect and preserve this nation and it’s democratic views and ideas. Without these self sacrificing individuals this nation would be in great peril. So when you lay your head down at night and sleep in peace and dream alright, stop for one second on Veteran’s Day and think of the service members so far away. Each one of them volunteered you see to protect this country and you and me. Each one has family and friends here at home, and they need to know they are supported and not alone! Thanks, from one Disabled Veteran to all who can acknowledge and understand!
