<br />
I look down a very well known town street to me. There is a golf club behind a line of bushes to my right. Downtown is to my left behind a similar looking line of bushes. A mist seems to linger around the lamps on the sidewalk.<br />
<br />
I have a feeling of adventure and excitement. I know there is something I must do. I must patrol this road. No hooligans allowed around here, not with me around.<br />
<br />
As I was patrolling I hear some laughing and I see a group of people having a party. There is a person on a picnic table and some others standing around a BBQ grill. The flames were so high on the grill, that the light makes weird shadows on the ground and the house.<br />
<br />
The people seem to notice me and waved me over. I smiled and shook my head no.<br />
<br />
Just as I did that a blue convertible ( I am not sure of the make or model ) drives up and it is <a href="http://www.icemanmma.com/">Chuck Liddel</a> in the car.<br />
<br />
I told him that I sure was glad he showed up . I could use some extra muscle.<br />
<br />
He said He wish he could help more , but there was more at play than just humans. He jumped out of the convertible without using the door and motioned me to follow him.<br />
<br />
We ran through some bushes and ended up at a house that had white vinyl siding on the front and all glass on the back ( walls and all ) .<br />
<br />
He said he was given a special weapon and couldn't figure out how to use it. We went inside the house and on the side wall was a very weird looking object .<br />
<br />
He took it off the wall and handed it to me and asked me to try to figure out how to work it. He was very urgent in his tone and said " they " were coming.<br />
<br />
I looked the thing over. It was a very old looking piece of gray wood with kind of a <a href="http://nmproducts.net/images/custom_db4-stock.jpg">stock look to one side ( kinda like a riffle stock )</a>. A <a href="http://www.swordsandarmor.com/images/SD910916_Kris_Rapier_Sword_Hilt.jpg">hilt of a French sword was mounted on the wood where the stock began</a>. Some type of <a href="http://www.rogerevans.tv/jq_deck_rig_pulley.jpg">rope and cable was intertwined around what would be a barrel of the thing</a>. A very <a href="http://internationalmetalproducts.com/uploads/shiny-gold-cap-42-700.jpg">bright gold cap was on the end</a>.<br />
<br />
I looked out the glass side of the house and there was a sunrise beginning and there was lots of clouds. I heard some yelling from the front of the house so I opened the front door and I saw the party goers from earlier coming out of the bushes and slowly walking towards the house. Their heads seems tilted forward as if they were really pissed offed . <br />

Lets say ...that you and your spouse has ummm.... three children. You do not like what your local school and local environment can teach your children.<br />
<br />
SO .. you and your spouse decide to raise your three children away from ALL technology , All people....and teach them that cockroaches are the superior beings on earth. You should bow and pray to the cockroach.. the true GOD.<br />
<br />
Is this wrong ? Should WE as all knowing , all moral , Americans, study and raid this family. Take the children and teach them our religion, OUR morals.<br />
<br />
This is the REAL question.<br />
<br />
Where do we draw the line?<br />
<br />
Who are YOU , to tell someone how to raise there children ?<br />
Should WE, as Americans, intervene with people who are raising their children the way they want?<br />
If a religion , that thinks that whipping a child three times a day is the correct way to raise a child, ....should we intervene? It's not our way ... who is to say we are right ?<br />
Maybe being to easy on children is the wrong way . Maybe XBOX and MTV is the true evil .<br />
Who is to say... .... ....... .......... .....<br />
<br />
Ponder on it ........<br />
<br />
Who gives you the right to judge someone else ?The Evil Hickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04493935872281011494noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-147047916500070645.post-57369691967500723022010-08-27T17:10:00.000-07:002010-08-27T17:10:41.028-07:00A really good forisenc bookMrs Evilhick is sure enjoying a book she bought .

<br />
On the weekends I was allowed stay up as late as I wanted.<br />
<br />
My friends and I would watch professional wrestling, which ran late into the night. As soon as the wrestling was over we would turn the knob to the local PBS channel. Some funny sounding music would start to play and a guys voice said:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">Some people hustle pool,<br />
Some people hustle cars,<br />
But have you ever heard about<br />
The man who hustles stars? </div><br />
<br />
It was the "The Star Hustler ". I remember the enthusiasm he had during the show. He showed so much excitement. He was able to bring you into his world , even though for just a short time, and make star gazing interesting and fun.<br />
<br />
My parents would watch it with us sometimes and afterwards would take us outside look for stuff that was on the show.<br />
<br />
He shared his knowledge and passion with millions . I am grateful for such a gift.<br />
<br />
As the "The Star Hustler " always says :<br />

I laughed out loud at myself. I was watching the Moon behind a invisible cloud the whole time.
