21 More Days to Election Again

12/26/2017

On December 19, 2017 only 10% of all eligible voters who live in the 58th Assembly District went out to vote. Yes many people did not know there was a Primary election for the 58th.

Now, most of you know there will be the Final election on January 16, 2018 to determine who gets the seat, a Republican or a Democrat. That is how the election happens.

Everyone is saying this again will be a low turn out. Come on let's do better on the 16th of January, 2018.

Not a word spoken and none is needed.

Food City is a Southern grocery store chain with headquarters in Bristol, Tennessee.

This is their one-minute commercial.

Not a word is spoken and none is needed. Very few commercials deserve to go viral. I think this one does.

IF YOU THINK IT WORTHY, PLEASE SEND IT ON!

United States War Dogs Association

12/19/2017

A friend who lives in Richfield sent this in.

"As all of you know I am a dog lover, this animal amazes me for all the ways it serves man BUT THE WAR DOG has really got my attention for it is responsible for bringing many of our soldiers home back to their family. It is not only our soldiers that our responsible for our freedoms, nor our politicians in Washington so I have great appreciation for the war dog.

The charity I sent my package to is a 501(c) (19) meaning it is made up of veterans. The war dog means a lot to them and to me for because of them many of our soldiers get to come home back to their children, parents and friends. I wanted to share the picture of our hero's both K-9 and human."

Read Below the Thank You note and information if you chose to donate to the dogs.

A Time for War

12/18/2017

By David Prentice

“To everything, there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven.” That’s the beginning of a famous bible verse. It’s a litany of life’s times and wonders that are dropped in our laps; weeping, laughing, dancing, healing.

The last line purposely changes tone and says, “a time for war”.

Like it or not, this is that time.

Civil War.

It’s here. Now. Thankfully this is not yet the blood in the streets kind of war, but war it is. It’s a war for the soul of this country, it’s a war that will affect everyone; none will escape having to deal with it directly, or indirectly.

How did we get here? It’s complicated. But one thing for sure: what’s not complicated is who started this war, why, and who it is with. During our lives, it was started by the hard left, and it’s a war to achieve power for them, for them to change the entire workings of our country. They want to remake every institution they can, with themselves in control of as much as possible. Power to them, belongs in the hands of their brilliant ideas, and their overwhelming moral superiority. They believe this war is necessary in order to root out the injustice inherent in our country’s institutions and its tawdry citizenry.

Credit Card Scam - Beware

12/16/2017

Snopes has verified this scam to be TRUE.

Very clever credit card scam! This is a new one!
BEWARE OF STRANGERS BRINGING UNORDERED GIFTS!!

This is very clever. Probably would fall for it if not warned. Give this wide distribution. This scam is actually very clever. Just when you thought you'd heard it all. Be very careful out there! Beware of people bearing gifts.

The following is a recounting of the incident from the victim:

Wednesday a week ago, I had a phone call from someone saying that he was from some outfit called: "Express Couriers," (The name could be any courier company). He asked if I was going to be home because there was a package for me that required a signature.

ALERT about Phone Calls

12/12/2017

Recently a neighbor called to alert me that he received a phone call with my name and phone number on the screen of his home phone. The call was a robo call stating he had such great credit and did he want to get a credit card with 0 interest.

Seems they have learned people do not pick up phone calls with unknown name and number. So, beware the next time you receive a phone call and think you know the caller or phone number.
