Simple To Say Hard To Do

OK. I need a place to rant while I wait for someone to screw up my project at work. Last night, I was telling Jill how I felt regarding what needs to be done in order to fix this country. So, here are the things that I can think of off of the top of my head.

1. Reform the Federal Reserve

Watch this to see why. If you are really bored, just google "federal reserve reform video".


2. Enact campaign finance reform to eliminate the influence of special interests.

3. Enact term limits.

4. Enact a flat tax.

5. Eliminate the electoral college.

6. Enact a policy of 1 man 1 vote (it isn't like we don't have the technology or the man power to have every vote truly count).

I guess what I am saying is that it is time for fairness to reign over the current modus operandi.

If we were somehow able to let fairness and common sense take over, the American people might just be able to get back in the saddle and do what they do best, innovate and work. Hard work and innovation in a fair world, would lead to a larger gross domestic product.

Big smiles

I love the big smiles

Cousins

Here's some great pics of Cade and Phillip while we were at Andy and Jill's last Thursday.

Tummy time

Just some cute pictures

Another Bober boy!

Cade now has a cousin and Sean and I are an uncle and aunt for the first time. Phillip William Bober was born on Monday Sept 22 at 7:05 am and weighed 6lbs 140z and was 21" long. We went to visit Phillip, Andy and Jill at the hospital tonight. It was great to see all three and Phillip is definitely a cutie. He felt light as a feather when you're used to carrying around a baby almost twice his weight.

The cousins first meeting- Phillip was crying so Cade had to pout
Other good news: Cade had his head ultrasound today and a follow up with the neuro nurse practitioner. His ventricles have shrunk considerably while his head size increased. This means more room for brains :) Also, they changed his shunt settings so that he doesn't lose too much brain fluid. This is really great news. The shunt is doing it's job. She was also happy with his muscle control. The only thing we need to work on is getting him to lay on his left side. He favors his right so much that his head is a little misshapen. So, that will be my project. We see her again in 6 weeks.
