Postby Speedblastr » Sun Mar 08, 2009 12:45 pm

For a record 3rd straight month in Feb. 8.1 %and surging toward double digits..
No one seems Immune.the Human Carnage from the recession , well into it's second year, now stands at 4.4 million lost jobs. About 12.5 million people are searching for work- more than the entire population of the state of Pennsylvania.
Folks I just got a Spiritual Awakening, last year I was complaining about my job.
Folks I love my job. LoL

Perhaps now is a good time to ask all those who are here illegally to go home.

Why ask just ship thier ass back. Bring our military home from all the shit holes in the world and line them up on the borders anyone within a 100 feet of the line shot first the check who it is like they do in Cuba.

I was trying to be warm, sensitive, and caring - much like the fucking assholes that let them in and the other fucking assholes who let them stay, LOL.
Yeah, what happened to all the jaw boning about "jobs Americans don't want". Well, maybe now some will lower themselves to getting a bit dirty, a bit sweaty, and actually do some work!

I am a Farrier/ blacksmith so I understand sweaty, dirty and smelling like horse shit when I come home but that is what pays the bills. I have one of those jobs even a Mexican doesn't want it. I tried to hire a helper two years ago and the Man called me a crazy gringo and laughed and walked away.

You guys know I'm a Stainless Welder , so I know about the Hot , Sweaty and Dirty as well.
My Bro Jimmy has hat's off to him. Shit is not pleasant looking nor beautifully aromatic.
Besides that it tastes like shit and it doesn't wear very well.
Oh yes, I've had horses kick shit up on to me.
Here's to you my Brother #1 All- American 8)

Its just a job like the ones ya'll have no different. I have been under a welding helmet with sweat running in your eyes and the fuckin smoke turning the snot in your nose black. We all have to do something we might think is a good job or bad one but we all need to hang on to what we have. Seth anytime you want to bang iron I would be glad to share a anvil and give ya some pointers. Shoeing horses is fun but you get your ass handed to ya on a regular basis. You ever walk into a bar looking for a fight stand at the front door and yell is there any farriers in here? If you hear ya look for another bar cause I can bet you anything you cant hit as hard as a horse can kick.

Speed was a Ranch Hand at 'Double JK Ranch" in Estes Park , Colorado during the tour of 1978-1979. I shoveled me some shit , smelled some shit , took no shit ,ate a lot of shit *, took tourists around Long's Peak where we were right below it , I think it was 14,000 some feet.
Twin Sister Mtns. were in front of us , always hated the rocky , shale type bluffs where the horses shoes would spark a little...LoL Jimmy knows what I mean.
* and had the shit kicked out of me...A new meaning to Black & Blue.
we finished that Tour in 79 when a Bro' back home sent me a 'Rocky Mountain High' Twistee in the mail. It was censored & we were out of their heading to New Mexico
in a Toyota 'celica'. The son of a bitch broke down on ' Lahavejhada' Which means 'upgrade' in Spanish , TiTo? Spelling ? ....anyway 35 mi. out of Santa Fe , Hitch a ride with a trucker , get into town...Yes I Gringo. Scrape up some cash or what was left of the 19 cases of 'Coors' that we drank.... Car ? Timing Chain Disintegrated ,Sheared the Cam, Sent valve (s) through piston (s). Cooked !
Had car towed to a nice little whorehouse which we didn't know about until later...Christ.
La Casa Judi ( House of Judi.)
Gringo.
There's a hell of a lot more, if I can remember past that whole bottle of wild Turkey.
Another day in Ass-Pipeville. LoL
