WHO AM I?

Who Am I?

I was born in one country, raised in another. My father was born in another country. I was not his only child. He fathered several children with numerous women.

I became very close to my mother, as my father showed no interest in me. My mother died at an early age from cancer.

Later in life, questions arose over my real name.

My birth records were sketchy and no one was able to produce a legitimate, reliable birth certificate.

I grew up practicing one faith but converted to Christianity, as it was widely accepted in my country, but

I practiced non-traditional beliefs & didn't follow Christianity, except in the public eye under scrutiny.

I worked and lived among lower-class people as a young adult, disguising myself as someone who really cared about them.

That was before I decided it was time to get serious about my life and I embarked on a new career.

I wrote a book about my struggles growing up. It was clear to those who read my memoirs that I had difficulties accepting that my father abandoned me as a child.

I became active in local politics in my 30's then with help behind the scenes, I literally burst onto the scene as a candidate for national office in my 40s. They said I had a golden tongue and could talk anyone into anything. That reinforced my conceit.

I had a virtually non-existent resume, little work history, and no experience in leading a single organization. Yet I was a powerful speaker and citizens were drawn to me as though I were a magnet and they were small roofing tacks.

I drew incredibly large crowds during my public appearances. This bolstered my ego.

At first, my political campaign focused on my country's foreign policy. I was very critical of my country in the last war and seized every opportunity to bash my country.

But what launched my rise to national prominence were my views on the country's economy. I pretended to have a really good plan on how we could do better and every poor person would be fed & housed for free.

I knew which group was responsible for getting us into this mess. It was the free market, banks & corporations. I decided to start making citizens hate them and if they were envious of others who did well, the plan was clinched tight.

I called mine "A People's Campaign" and that sounded good to all people.

I was the surprise candidate because I emerged from outside the traditional path of politics & was able to gain widespread popular support.

I knew that, if I merely offered the people 'hope' , together we could change our country and the world.

So, I started to make my speeches sound like they were on behalf of the downtrodden, poor, ignorant to include "persecuted minorities" like the Jews. My true views were not widely known & I needed to keep them unknown, until after I became my nation's leader.

I had to carefully guard reality, as anybody could have easily found out what I really believed, if they had simply read my writings and examined those people I associated with.

I'm glad they didn't. Then I became the most powerful man in the world. And the world learned the truth.

Who am I?
ADOLPH HITLER.


WHO WERE YOU THINKING OF?

New Roof & Gutters

Unbeknownst to us since we were out of town, we had a hail storm that came thru our part of Georgia back on May 15th, 2008. When our neighbors began to have their roofs replaced a few months ago, we learned hail damage to be the culprit. A local roofer found similar damage to our roof, so we filed a claim.

Our insurance carrier contracted with an independent adjuster who found major hail damage not only to the roof, but all air vents, turbines, chimney metal encasement, gutters, and even some of our window screens.

Upon getting the official claim estimate, we contracted with the same roofer who came highly recommended by our neighbors-- and work began on Monday , May 20th. Three days later, we had a new 25 year Onyx roof.

We had all the guttering removed and another contractor whom we're used more than once, replaced/repaired all rotten facial board ---a painter came behind him with caulking gun and trim paint.

On May 24th, the gutter company arrived in the pm and began to replace the 5 inch gutters with 6 inch. Also, additional down spouts were added. Monday, May 27th the gutters were all installed.

Here are a few photos of the new roof and gutters.

The bull nose trim on the plaladium window was replaced and here I have my ladders in place as I paint the window trim.

New 6 " gutters have been installed.

NO GOD IN SCHOOL

Before you watch the video below, give some thought to the poem written by Darrell Scott whose daughter - Rachel Scott (see photo) was slaughtered at the Columbine High School massacre on April 20th, 1999. These words reflect once again what most politicians can't comprehend, it's the need for God to be put back into our schools.

Here's Mr Scott's poem:

Your laws ignore our deepest needs,

Your words are empty air..

You've stripped away our heritage,

You've outlawed simple prayer.

Now gunshots fill our classrooms,

And precious children die.

You seek for answers everywhere,

And ask the question "Why?"

You regulate restrictive laws, Through legislative creed.

And yet you fail to understand, That God is what we need!

HONDA---ONE OF THE GREATEST COMMERCIALS

Authenticated by Snopes.com and in their own words, this video is a "complicated Honda Accord commercial ...achieved without the use of computer-generated images."

Snopes.com continues to say: "The film took 606 takes. On the first 605 takes, something, usually very minor, didn't work. They would then have to set the whole thing up again.

The crew spent weeks shooting night and day. The film cost six million dollars and took three months to complete including a full engineering of the sequence.

In addition, it's two minutes long so every time Honda airs the film on British television, they're shelling out enough dough to keep any one of us in clover for a lifetime. Honda executives figure the ad will soon pay for itself simply in free viewings.

There are six and only six hand-made Accords in the world. To the horror of Honda engineers, the filmmakers disassembled two to make the film."
