If this guy isn’t suspended for rest of playoffs I’m going to put a hit on Shanahan. Dirty SOB! 

What the Hell is going on? Is this shit London, or Detroit?

Are we actually going to make it to 2012? This is my 500th post here, and I’m wondering what will the world be like after the next 500, or will we even still be here…

People started protesting the police in London, because they shot and killed a man…Somehow the protests turned into all-out, burn this fucker down, steal everything we can, riots…What these ass-hat, rioting fucks aren’t talking about, is why this dumb asshole was shot and killed…HE SHOT AT THE POLICE!!! Ummm, if you shoot at police, they shoot back! This guy was no saint, but somehow this turned into a socioeconomic battle, and now these dopes are destroying their neighborhoods, businesses, and infrastructure…

How fucked up…People of London, this is not how you fix things…Wake up, before it’s too late…

-Here in America, we had our giant battle over the debt ceiling…Then when politicians drove us to the edge of financial disaster, S&P took a stand and dropped our national credit rating…Whether justified, or not, they made a point, and the Market tanked Monday, slightly bounced back Tuesday, and went back to the shitty on Wednesday…

What are the politicians doing, besides vacationing? They’re all playing the blame game…Guess what it’s not just President Obama’s fault…It’s not just Republicans’ fault, or Tea-Party dolts fault…The fault falls on all of them, and all politicians who have only been looking out for themselves for the last 30 years…

I actually DVR’ed all the Sunday morning news shows and watched them all this week…What idiots…One Tea-Party dope said if The President would have listened to the Tea-Party and given $4 Trillion in cuts, we wouldn’t have this problem…Yeah, except there was a plan being worked on between The President, and leadership from both parties…It had $4 Trillion in cuts, and had reform to Medicare and Social Security…But God forbid, it also had closing Tax loop-holes, so the largest companies would actually pay taxes, and not get unnecessary rebates…Those would have brought in $4 Trillion…

Get it, cut $4 Trillion, and add $4 Trillion would make us plus $8 Trillion…But these hard-line Republicans, and Tea-Party dopes screamed no…So now all we have is $2 Trillion in cuts, so we’re still pretty much screwed…And instead of fixing shit, all our politicians are on vacation, saying it’s all some one else’s fault…You all waited until the last minute, and you all screwed up…Get back to work, listen to the people, and do the work the people pay you to do…

-But at least we aren’t in Africa…


Yes, Africa, where there are 600,000 children on the verge of dying from starvation…If a major drought isn’t enough, then there are the Muslim extremists who have been on a killing spree, driving already sick, and hungry families from there homes, and to refugee camps…Then these warlords are also stopping aid from getting to the refugees as much as possible…And the U.N. says they only have enough money and supplies to last another 3 weeks…

It’s odd how our Government, and NATO, and the U.N. don’t really seem to care about Muslims extremists committing genocide in Africa, but all other Muslim extremists are bad and need to be taken out…Ummm, if we’re gonna take on this crusade, then let’s handle all of the nut jobs…

It’s getting hard to believe in our leaders…Hell it’s getting harder and harder to believe in human beings…I’m not giving up…Let’s see where we are in another 500 posts…

“If You Believe”

“So, you’ve made up your mind
You’re tired of trying
Time to be scared
And you wanted to fly
You can’t close your eyes
Time to beware

But if you believe in the world I’m calling
And if you belong in the world I saw
And if you believe in the world I’m calling
You’ll be strong

So you wasted your time
You willed it goodbye
Time to be scared
You thought you could buy
Your last piece of mind
Time to beware

But if you believe in the world I’m calling
And if you belong in the world I saw
And if you believe in the world I’m calling
You’ll be strong”

If corporations are people

and if people are people at conception

then fetuses are corporations

which means that condoms are anti-business

and anti-business is anti-American

All of which means:

Condoms are anti-American.

Okay, that one is funny…But seriously, can we please knock it off with the damn bumper stickers…It’s 2011…We don’t need bumper stickers when we have instant everything on our phones…We have Facebook and Twitter if you need to say something catchy…You don’t ruin your stupid car!

Yeah, dummies, bumper stickers depreciate the value of your car…That means an extra dick in your ass when you’re trying to trade it in…

Oh yeah, and most of the bumper stickers out there are just stupid…

“My child is an Honor Student” Ummm, we don’t give a shit…We just want you to get your slow driving ass out of the fast lane!

“Kerry - Edwards” bumper stickers…REALLY? You’re a couple elections behind…

Your Anti-Bush stickers, yeah, you can get rid of those too…He’s no longer the President…

The oval bumper stickers…Hey, I’m Irish, but I don’t care if you went there, or wish you could, or whatever the reason it is that you have an “IRE” in an oval sticker…And if you have a radio show here in Cleveland, apparently it’s a law that you make those oval bumpers stickers…I don’t care if you listen to Rover…Fucking show has been the same show every day for 8 years…

Then there are the environmental bumper stickers…Often on the back of cars that do nothing good for Mother Earth…

And the the Religious ones…I saw one today, and it stuck in my head, and it kept bugging me…I’m not the most religious person…I will go with Science before faith…But from my 12 years of Catholic schooling, I understand faith…I get it, but I don’t have much of it…The one I saw today said, “God Rules”…

Rules what? God is like a NFL Quarterback…He gets too much credit, and too much blame…Seriously, did God rule the Stock Market into the ground on Thursday? Did God have the say in the MLB trade deadline deals…How about NFL Free-agency?

Does God rule us all around the world, like his own giant chess game…If so, why does he rule a bunch of fucking idiots into power and wealth, while better people scape by and get shit on by the system?

Like I said, God gets too much blame, and too much credit…

If the good Lord ruled me into the power, everyone would have a bumper sticker that read, ‘The Beeze is Cock-Strong as a Mutha Fucka!’

I’ve been working on a book for awhile now, and this post is a brief chapter from that book…

For some time now I’ve had a theory about babies…But I feel that just now, with my third child, that one up there, that my theory is correct…With my oldest, when she was a baby, I was working 70 hours a week…I didn’t have nearly as much time with her as I would have liked…Then with my son, I got more time with him…

Thanks to some health issues, I was up with him every night…Mrs. Beeze is evil without sleep, and I can get by with little…So, the only way he would sleep comfortably was in my arms, some what propped up on the couch…Laying on his back in his crib lead to serious reflux, and awful gas pain…So for about a year, we hung out on the couch, while his gastrointestinal system matured and worked through it all…

So I got to watch him closely, and began to think about this theory again…And now my youngest, who I spend a lot of time with…I get up with her in the night…Again, the Mrs. needs her sleep, and I need her to get it…And I’m not working as much, and I play a bigger Mr. Mom role these days…

So after all this build up, here it is…Babies are all knowing creatures…That’s right…When we are born, we know everything…As we get older, we become less intelligent…Almost as if we are reset, and have to start over…Let’s take a look at this…

The life of a baby is golden…They eat, sleep, piss, and shit…By eat, I mean they are fed, first by breast/bottle, then spoon fed…Then cleaned up…They’re allowed, and encouraged to sleep as long and as much as they want…That sounds GREAT! They don’t have to worry about getting to the shitter…they just drop there waste in diapers and then they are cleaned up with those wonderful wipes…They do no leg work…No heavy lifting…They get carried here and there, rolled around in their personal chariots…They are treated like Gods, and if they cry…The world stops for them…Whatever it takes to make them happy…

Babies are the ultimate puppet master…Proof of that…Watch a baby use their hands…They’re Ambidextrous! All babies are switch-hitters…Now I’m trying to get the 6 year old little Beeze try and swing lefty, and it’s a bitch!

When does it all slip away…Because they do become dumber…They lose their powers…It has to begin when they start talking…Why do you think parents get so excited about those first words!??! The talking takes off, and soon they start doing dumb shit that pisses you off…Like coloring on the walls, or trying to write their name on your Eddie Van Halen Peavey Wolfgang Guitar…

Like I said, there is a point when the reset button his hit and it’s all over for them…Everything goes black…Think about it…When is your first memory from…Most people can get back to 4, maybe 3 years old, and that fades with ages…Then we have top learn everything…And many still end up stupid…They won’t even get close to the genius that they held when they were an infant…

It’s so very sad…We start out our lives in diapers having some one clean up our shit, and saying how cute we are…And many of us will end our lives in diapers having some one cleaning up our shit, and being disgusted by us…

Love those babies while you can, because one day they’re gonna be a pain in the ass!

  This week, on Friday, the Final NASA Space Shuttle Mission will launch…Yes, it the end of an era…The Space Shuttle Program ha been scrapped…NASA had been working on the rockets to replace the Space Shuttles, but the President killed the budget for NASA…

President Obama has always talked creating jobs, and how research and development is the area we need to excel…He talked about creating jobs when he came to Cleveland…Well thanks to cutting NASA’s budget, there have been more jobs lost in Cleveland/Ohio…One of the rockets that was scrapped, was being designed at the NASA Lewis Glenn Research Center…Great move!

Research and Development he said…NASA has been at the forefront of research and development…So much of the technology we have today is because of NASA…We have microwaves because of NASA…Thanks to NASA’s R & D we have phones the size of infants’ hands, that have more power, memory, and capabilities, then were ever imagined when the first computer was built…It was the size of a house…

NASA was a major reason for American Exceptionalism…President Obama has spoken of it repeatedly…Many people have said that he is a perfect example of American Exceptionalism…No! NASA was…There is nothing exceptional about taking away their funding, killing more jobs, and killing the county’s leader in R & D…

Now I voted for the President, and this is one of the things he’s done, that has disappointed me…I just blame him…No one in DC has fought for NASA…They all keep talking about making cuts, but they aren’t willing take any cuts to their benefits, or to their staff, or to their salary…Cut, cut, cut, as long as it doesn’t affect their comfy life…They’ve all been running on jobs, then they turn around and cut police, fire, and teacher’s jobs left an right…

Don’t fund R & D leader NASA, but bailout the banks twice…(Once under Bush, once under Obama)…Bailout big Auto…Tax cuts for Big Oil…Tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% but screw the middle class…I had “HOPE” that there could possibly be some real “CHANGE” but clearly there is no changing politics…

And I can’t say I won’t vote for President Obama again, because right now, there are a bunch of fuck-tards running, who let any nonsense that pops into their head, spill out of their mouths, no matter how stupid it is…Mitt Romney isn’t totally awful, except for back-pedaling from everything he did as Governor of Massachusetts, and being a Mormon….That’s really dumb….

It’s clear that are leaders, and those who want to lead, are lacking American Exceptionalism…If our leaders are lacking it, then it’s that much harder for the everyman to reach it…Where is our future heading?

I’m not bullshitting you…Try and look at it the way you look at running your household…What happens when your bills become more than what you bring in? You stop buying a $4 coffee on the way to work…You don’t order out as much…No fancy dinners for awhile…You cut the non-essential stuff…What else do you do? You try to bring in more money…Pickup a couple extra shifts…One of you goes from part-time to full-time…You do what you have to do…

Sadly our politicians don’t want to do any work…They all keep talking about cuts…Cuts are fine…But none of them talk about bringing in any more revenue…They’re all afraid to raise taxes on us, and for some reason they think that is the only revenue stream…But there is another way…Start taxing BIG BUSINESS more…Or some of them, start taxing! Stop giving them their unneeded rebates…They help the government has given them hasn’t produced more jobs…It’s done nothing to help the economy…

Look at how easy 10 of America’s companies have it…Then think about how hard it is for you to get by…

10. Carnival Cruise Lines over the past five years made more than $11 billion in profits, but its federal income tax rate during those years was just 1.1 percent…

9. Conoco Phillips, which is the fifth largest oil company in the United States, made $16 billion in profits from 2007 through 2009, but received $451 million in tax breaks…

8. Citigroup last year made more than $4 billion in profits but paid no federal income taxes…

7. Goldman Sachs in 2008 only paid 1.1 percent of its income in taxes even though it earned a profit of $2.3 billion…

6. Valero Energy, the 25th largest company in America with $68 billion in sales last year received a $157 million tax refund check from the IRS…

5. Boeing got a $124 million refund from the IRS last year…

4. Chevron received a $19 million refund from the IRS last year, after it made $10 billion in profits in 2009.

3. General Electric made $26 billion in profits over the last five years and not only paid no federal income tax, it got a $4.1 billion refund.

2. Bank of America got a $1.9 billion tax refund from the IRS last year, though it made $4.4 billion in profits.

1. Exxon Mobil made $19 billion in profits in 2009 and paid no federal income taxes, and receive a $156 million rebate from the IRS.

Pretty fuck up!

Maybe we stop throwing money at these businesses, that don’t need it…Make them pay at least a fair amount of taxes, and I bet we can make a huge dent in that deficit…

Consider this my official announcement…I’m running for President, and I’ll straighten some shit out!
