"State of the State" 2014 Has It Gotten Any Better?

This is a clip of Governor Dannel Malloy back in 2014 giving an answer about the condition of the state after his breaking of his promises... 

and the response of some of the taxpaying citizens of the state about how they feel...

It's now 2018 and the question before you is 

"Has it gotten any better for you and your family?"

The Story Of Kwanzaa: From Civil Rights To Corporate America

Next week will be the start of the Kwanzaa celebration which starts on Dec 26th. Kwanzaa is an African-American holiday that is celebrated during the week after Christmas ending on New Years Day in many African-American communities.

It has been more of a Community Celebration than a Private Family Celebration for the majority of people that our family has known in these modern times. A time of reflection & respecting our elders & enjoying  our neighbors, community members, friends, blood family our wider circle of unrelated but we consider them to be family. 

The intent of the celebration is to encourage & instill positive values from the elders to the younger generations as well as foster a sense of belonging in the community. Many community celebrations have a marketplace area to not only buy items but additionally connect people with community services that they may have been unaware of.

Have you been to a Community Kwanzaa Celebration in your area?

The video below explains some of the history of Kwanzaa

Be Safe this Halloween 2017

Enjoy this short little video I made last year

Be Safe while you go out to Trick or Treat
& have your Halloween Fun - 

Remember to: 
Wear light colors & bring flashlights so you can see & be seen 
Walk on the sidewalks not in the streets
Try to go out in groups together

Never Go Inside the House of a stranger

Wait to eat the treats until you get home & are able to check the wrappers for tampering in the full light - sadly there are people out there who have tampered with the candy in years past

TBT - Liberty Unplugged - Political Television Ad

History is repeating itself with the #DemocratsRaisingTaxesAgain

Our families are struggling...
 but they just do not seem to care how much our families are hurting...

They have their cushie benefits they do not care about our families
Their political crony friends push out fear mongering half truths and outright lies about the balanced budget that the governor vetoed... 

Call the elected officials and tell them

The Mark of the Beast - A video about The Chip

we've heard about the "Mark of the Beast" regardless of our being Christian or not 

It's become part of the world conversation that for those who don't read the bible have relegated to sci-fy movies... 

The chip is no longer a sci-fy idea but is actively being used in other parts of the world and now starting to be promoted here in the USA by some companies for their employees and even one offering it to their customers as well.

This is a documentary that was created over in the UK a couple of years ago;

With a local company making the news a few months ago talking on the news how they're having their employees chipped and offering it to their customers I was wondering what others thoughts were about the "Chip" and it's relationship to the "Mark of the Beast"...

Fwd: Malloy Budget Mess

URGENT ALERT!

I'm forwarding this press release from the 

CT GOP Chairman JR Romano 

because it's Very Important - URGENT

that you know what is coming in #MalloysMess

I've highlighted in Bold & Yellow the outrageous cuts that Malloy has in store for our families.

Urgent Action on your part is required: You need to Call the office of the governor and tell him that what he is planning is not acceptable and tell him to #StopHurtingFamilies

Once again this is an attack on our poor working families in CT! While the budget protects the cronies who got him elected; our families, our veterans, our seniors, our children are all under attack in this plan! Our most vulnerable who can't afford to send lots of money to the democrat election coffers are being attacked by these DANGEROUS Cuts.! 

Malloy is STEALING Our Taxes to pay off his Special Interest Groups and keep the special projects that benefit his crony friends! Malloy is clearly showing that he

  Does NOT CARE ABOUT OUR FAMILIES!! 

Another example of just how devoid of empathy and out of touch these democrats are in CT and across the land.

Memorial Day: Why We Remember

Why Do we Remember Memorial Day?

To many of our school children in our modern day with the proper history of American and world history no longer being taught, the reason for the holiday is being forgotten.

There are too many children no longer having actual knowledge of what wars of our recent past have been like. With the older generations dying off with stories no longer being told about what it was like during those times.

As the "community memory" of our elders die off the reason we celebrate Memorial Day is becoming lost to only being the reason that the family gathers and has a BBQ after going out shopping the sales...
