Where's My MONEY ? ? ?
Yes , it's everyone's favorite time of the year. Yep , it's that taxing time that taxes so many of us. And like so many people who want back every penny possible we gave to Uncle Sam , I joined the army of folks down at H $ R Block to file for a refund. The truly smart people go to H $ R because they know how to get those pennies for you. H $ R Block is your friend. They want you to know that and so is your $bank$. At H $ R , you get to sign a paper with lots of small print. You are told it's nothing but a formality. After all , we are all just friends here , right ? When you try to read the very small extra fine print , you can't read it anyway. Besides , why go to the effort , after all , friends don't keep things from each other.
Now then , do you want Uncle Sam to mail your refund ? It will take 6 to 8 weeks. Or , would you rather do the electronic method method with direct deposit ? This takes just 2 to 3 weeks. Well , that's a no brainer. I'll want my money ass fast ass possible. I mean , Circuit City is having a sale !
When you see your bank statement , you notice that H $ R Block is good to their word , your refund took 2 1/2 weeks to arrive. Butt wait a minute. There's 30$ dollars missing. Well , remember that form with all the fine print that was just a formality ? That's the hidden formality costs for doing electronic filing with direct deposit. No , you don't get told this. Why ? Because we are all just friends and friends don't keep things from eachother , do they ?

Green Thinking
With Al Gore and his inconvenient truth about global warming , we need new ideas to better use what we have until technology changes.
We have been told that the new lightbulbs will save money on our electric bills. In the picture , the new bulb is on the left while old faithfull is on the right. The new bulb does not get hot while turned on. Old faithfull gets soooo hot , ya can't touch it.
Here's the idea. Use the old bulbs during winter. You would be surprised at the heat these will contribute. In the warmer months , use the new bulbs since they operate much cooler.
I have replaced almost half of my lightbulbs and I saw a drop in my last electric bill.
More on Those B & E 's
Franklin , Tennessee - my readers have asked if there's more information about the B & E 's that Franklin Police did not want to investigate. I always try to give them what they want. So , here's the rest of what I know , and no , I did not tell everything for a reason , which I will let the reader determine for themselves.
Soooo , with that said , Here's the BEEF !
If you have garage doors with a handle shown in the picture. Look to see if it has been turned. If so , then someone tried to get in.
If you look at the second picture , you will see that the lock bar is out of the gate plate. To do this , someone pulled very hard to snap the aluminum pin on the shaft that connects to the outside T-handle. This pin is a safety measure in case of fire and the door won't go up for whatever the reason.
The third picture shows what the mechanism should look like without tampering.
To keep the bad guys out , you need to pin the arms in a secure way and don't leave any slop in the arm's travel.
If Franklin Police wanted to know about this , they would have asked. They did not.
If Franklin Police wanted to see this , they would have said so. They did not.
Here's more BEEF !
The badguys drive a purple Plymouth van with black windows ( not tinted ) liscence plate MML 604
They also use a black SUV with black windows ( not tinted ) liscence plate 0561 DL
When Pranklin Police Sargent Smithson had this info in hand , he leaft the scene.
It's interesting that the badguys have returned in a white SUV with black windows ( not tinted ) which appears new. No plate at this time.
Here's the biggy question. Does Sgt. Smithson know these badguys ? Do the math. What do you find ?

The Inconvenient Truth About Al Gore
I got caught up on the news for this week. I saw the former Vice President Al Gore went back to Capitol Hill , to talk with America's politicians about Global Warming. Not surprising , a Republican showed his ass by interrupting Mr. Gore. His antics got him an interview by the news. My , he was sooo proud of himself. There's always someone who wants to ride his coattails , hoping some of his charisma would rub off onto them.
So , I decided to look at everyone's complaint towards the man and I found the real inconvient truth about Al Gore.
1 ) Al Gore uses 20% more electricity than others......Well of course he does. He has a house that is 20% larger than most people have.
2 ) He has used a lot of jet fuel globe trotting around the world.....Well , of course he has. No one else has gone to the trouble of compiling all this scientific knowledge , which he has brought forward. Mr. Gore used his own money , he did not beg for research grants.
3 ) Al Gore has done nothing to reduce his own impact on global warming.....Well , of course he has'nt. Mr. Gore is living with the technology that everyone of us has to use. Our technology is the cause of this planet's demise.
Note : Al Gore said he is waiting for the codes to change so he can legally place solar collectors on his house. Mr. Gore has to wait for city hall to get off it's complacient ass before he can do anything. In the meantime , he has told everyone , he has replaced his light bulbs with the new planet friendly light bulbs that save energy. AND , all the profits from his book are going to the fight on Global Warming.
Now , with this inconvient truth brought to light , how many people , who have run Al Gore into the ground , can say they have done something to reduce Global Warming ?
Speaking for myself , I'm replacing the light bulbs in a timely way , that my budget will allow. I also use the recycle bins. Butt , I see Franklin does'nt empty them very often. I have also planted trees where I can.
So , before you run Al Gore into the ground , what have YOU done to reduce Green House Gases ?

BVD : No ! Oh Nooo ! You're serious , I mean , you are really serious.
Jerry : I want to thank officer Snottknock , Sgt. Smithson , Sgt. Warner and Dick. Dixon for their help.

TDOT Getz off it's Az
Today's Tennessean - TDOT has finally decided to inspect every road sign it has put into place along our highway system. It took the fatal bus crash in Atlanta to give them an idea of what they should be doing next.
Jobs within TDOT are very political. Back in the 90's , every TDOT project put 30% of the money into political pockets. I don't know what the percent is now.

Hide and Seek
Money for Combat Wounded Found
Jerry - the American people have become outraged over the way their government treats the Iraqi war wounded at Walter Reed. The biggest problem is money. Here , we see the United States NAVY playing NASCAR. This little game requires lots of $$$$$. The NAVY feels their budget is more appropriately spent on recruitment than on combat wounded. Besides , the Iraq war is on land , not the sea. Therefore , the NAVY does'nt believe they have any wounded.
The United States ARMY does'nt want to compete with the NAVY for cannon fodder , so they put their budget on drag racing. All this money could go to the needs of the wounded. Today , Walter Reed has become a place to stick 'em , and forget 'em.
" Out of sight , out of mind "
Besides , it is much more easier to fire a general , than it is to treat the wounded.

It's SPRING ! ! !
Franklin , Tennessee - despite the increased burden of new crap and new taxes being placed on the good people of Franklin , spring could not be stopped. I'm surprised Jay Johnson did not burden the trees a with flower tax
BVD : Hey man , don't be giving out ideas.
Metro's Police Chief
Nashville , Tennessee , Jerry watched the 6 oclock news on channel 4 and the word on the street is that Metro Nashville's police chief Serpas got a 2 to 1 vote of doing a good job.
BVD : Hey Jerry , if he's doing such a good job , do ya think he took out the Den of Thieves ?
Jerry : This is a police department. What do you think ?
Say What ?
Jerry - The Army Corps of Engineers was on the carpet to answer for problems with the 40 pumps installed at New Orleans. They have to be removed for rework due to defective materials and workmanship. This guy says he knew all about the problems.
Stock said , " We chose on going with a calculated risk to use defective materials and workmanship. I do not offer an apology for putting New Orleans in danger again with another hurricane. "
The current work is behind schedule to meet the next hurricane season.
BVD : Hey Jerry , I thought the Army Corps answered to the public.
Jerry : Were'nt you listening ? They did answer by saying they will not apologize.
BVD : Why are they being so obtuse ?
Jerry : All those po folks are squatting on prime real estate. What better way to get rid of them than to flood them out ? Have'nt you read the bible ?
Da Party Is OVER
Jerry - the news was talking about the problems in universities concerning student drinking and the parties that have given them special notoriety. Some have stated they are cracking down and have made it quit clear , that if a student is coming to their university to party , they don't want you.
Back in the 90's , Vanderbilt University put into place , what the students dubbed " Vanderbilt Dry" It was so successful , that today , Vanderbilt continues to be the best and most expensive party in the SEC.

Today's Paper
Vanderbilt Scene at 100 Oaks
Vanderbilt University was seen at One Hundred Oaks this week looking over real estate possibilities. A Vanderbilt spokes person stated , " We are looking for new oppotunities to serve our students. This could be the place we open a new food service to assist in giving them a choice. "
When asked about the distance the students would have to travel off campus , the reply was , " We are getting Franklin's old trolley cars and we will have them shuttle back and forth. "
Now Ya Know
NBC - On the tv show Deal or no Deal , this moron of a general kept saying he negotiated millions in military contracts. You would think , after lining all those pockets with cost over runs , and spending 40 years in the service , he would have climbed higher than a one star. He traded one million dollars to receive 93 thousand. Now that's what I call a negotiator.
Cellphone Useage OK
Vanderbilt Medical Center - CNN blew the whistle after facilities like Vanderbilt had spent millions of tax dollars researching how cell phones affected hospital equipment. It turns out that they do not. This was something Vanderbilt knew before doing the wastefull research. If a cellphone cannot be used in the hospital , then the caller gets to use Vanderbilt's. Those phones do not have a long distance calling plan.

General Pace : Well , yes

BVD : What's with the double decker ?

BVD : What's with the police car ? Why so many antennaes ?

JJ : The police officers have done a splendid job of writing tickets and I want to reward them.
BVD : You don't get tickets do you ?
JJ : I'm the boss around here. No police officer would dream of giving me a ticket for anything.
BVD : What's with the fire ladder truck ?
JJ : The fire department is a rather large political machine. I want to give them a larger ladder to climb up. And , if you look , this one can go obove the double decker bus.
BVD : How will you afford all of this ?
JJ : I'll just put it all into the Public Transpotation System budget. No problem.

Baby We Gotta Go
Copper
Franklin , Tennessee - Jerry went to Home Depot to drool over the tool section. While there , he talked with several folks he knew.
Did you know the price for salvaged copper is now 3 dollars a pound ?
At the Depot , " customers " have brazenly walked out with whole rolls. They even put the large stuff into shopping carts and walked out the door. The favorite exit door is going through the Garden section where the fence has been cut. SSHHHHHHHHHHH.........................don't tell that to anyone , it's a secret.
Home Depot has had holes cut in their fence several times in the past.
Copper is the metal of choice these days for salvagers. They are now going into churches and new construction areas to remove the copper from water lines , A/C units , and power lines.
Where severe storms have hit , they sworm in to get all they can before law enforcement can get back on it's feet.
Aluminum is the second favorite.
When it comes to dealing with thieves , Franklin Police Shift Supervisor Sgt. Smithson is on record for saying , " Even my own wife steals from me when I'm not looking."
Speaking of thieves , there's a guy going around houses saying he does outdoor work. He has a wirey build , thin reddish hair , pock marked face with thin red hair beard and wears a fancy Home Depot Jacket. The word is he checks houses for possible B & E later on.
Fence Light
Since America has forgotten how to make things , we have China to make things for us. Take for example this solar powered night light for use on the edge of decks. When the sun is out , the light is on. When the sun goes to bed at night , the light turns off. This is made in China for HAMPTON BAY. This company is well known for lighting and ceiling fans. You can get yours now at Home Depot for 7 dollars.

Such Nonsense
It's not surprising how many people have jumped on the anti Gore wagon concerning his energy consumption at his home. Well , it is a rather large one and I'd take a guess that those outspoken people are just jealous of what he has.
Al Gore did what so many did'nt do. He took the available information from different sourses and put it all together to give us the ugly truth that us humans are responsible for the climate changes taking place on our planet.
Our earth is not going through some normal shift in climate patterns. Humans are doing it. AND that's the unconvient truth. While other animals species are dying out to give us more room to breathe , we continue to destroy our planet ass we exploit it for more oil.
We have to use new technology if humans are to continue to dominate this planet. We cannot go somewhere else. Oil companies could help bring in new ways to live , butt , they are afraid they will loose their monopoly on the world.
People like to talk about it from both sides of the fence , butt , people are afraid to stand up and do what's right for the world. Our future generations will remember us for our pig headedness if they survive.
Get Over It
Williamson County's Sheriff Headly has returned to work amid calls for his removal for his being arrested for illegal drug charges. Get a life people and leave the man alone and let the system of justice take it's course.
Has anyone asked why Headley has a drug problem ? Remember , this is Tennessee. This is a state where a doctor can give you addictive drugs and has no responsibility for any rehab you may need.
Williamson County does have a justice system. Although it is obtusely corrupt , it is what we have. Let the man do his job and let's see what the system does.

Oh Plplplease
Hey Macain , what's the difference between sacraficed and wasted ? They are still dead for no good reason. My how quickly we forgot Viet Nam.
It's Past Time
How many wars does it take to wake up this country to the fact , American fighting men and women wounded in battle do not get the medical attention they need ? Let's do a count
1 - Korea was not a war , it was a police action , Butt , it was still a war
2 - Viet Nam was never declared a war , Butt , it was still a war
3 - The Iraq war , well , it's now a Civil War
4 - And oh yeah , how many remember the thousands of wounded from President Daddy Bush's Gulf War ?
The truth is , even though some generals are being fired , politics is going after the wrong people. Weightman had to work within a budget. He did'nt get a penny more. President Bush spends 100 BILLION DOLLARS a month on military research. So , why can't we fire Bush ? Let's start with Gates. He's the one who has no tolerance for such treatment for our wounded. He knows how much money goes into Bush's favorite political pockets.
Kiley knows the living standards for low level personnel. That's why he blew off concerns in building 18. It's that way all across this country's VA system.
When I served in the military , I had to sign a paper stating that I agreed to live in sub standard housing while living on the base. I noticed the news missed that one.
