Rainouts

Well my son was supposed to play 3 baseball games last week. The first team went to the wrong park to play and they forfeited to us. The second game the team only had 7 players and they forfeited. The third game was called with the first batter in the 2nd due to rain. I have found a lot of parents that signed their kids up are not committed to baseball. Their kid may not get a chance to play in High School here in Georgia because of it. Sad but true. Very few non travel ball kids get to.

I am still looking for work. Not fair it seams at time. Many IT managers want someone who is flexible. I can't be. I have kids at home and can't be home when they are at school and at work when they are home. My kids deserve better of me. Besides I have been improving my sons reading greatly by being at home.

Politics is the same stuff. I will be curious how the Obama administration deals with the torture information. Yes information was gotten out of the terrorists. What other means were tried first to get this information. I think that is the key. If non torture methods were not tried first then that would be a major problem. I am all for letting people off and changing policy. I am concerned that the Democrats could go after the previous Republican government and this may set a precedent that we don't want in our political environment. I felt the same way about Clinton. Clinton did commit a felony while in office. Going after the other party in general would not appeal to the public.

I am starting to not like the media. They seem to feel Obama can do no wrong. Obama is changing a lot of policies and seems to be contrite in dealing with less than friendly countries. If he won't take a hard line anywhere we will get pushed over. I would still rather a Republican congress. I do not trust Reid or Pelosi. Both are governing from the left. I want a centrist government as that would appeal to most people. I am pro life and abortion is wrong in my opinion. I do believe people can have their own free will, but I do not agree with abortion. Maybe cause my wife died and I see the value of a human being. I could see a law where when having an abortion you can do so legally if you get fixed and if the father is paying for the abortion he must get fixed too. I also am against gay marriage. I just don't feel it is a right. I also wish people would take care of the planet. One good thing about being unemployed is I do not drive near as much and am burning less fossil fuels. Although I've always taken public transportation when I could and kept my vehicle miles to a minimum. My cars are 12 and 7 years old.
