The arch was gorgeous, but while I was waiting to take that little pod ride to the top, I toured the museum area. <BR/>What I experienced made me physically ill. The Saint Louis Arch is a tribute to "Westward Expansion"--translated means, a tribute to the robbing, slaughtering, lying, and deceiving that happened as a result of a map two guys and and Indian girl came up with. The first eminent domainers. (not Lewis and Clark, but their employers)<BR/>My stomach cramped, and I got that slobbery spit that happens right before you puke.<BR/>Now, hundreds of years later, Jerry Jones is doing the same thing right here in little old Arlington. And the government is still lying and killing to further its means <BR/>It pains me to picture an axe to those trees...better you, than them, though.<BR/>Pray in the fire and walk on its coals...daisydukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04591769371679761641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36128951.post-28841955659550370952007-10-07T06:01:00.000-07:002007-10-07T06:01:00.000-07:00I simply do not understand the concept of freedom ...I simply do not understand the concept of freedom where you can own land but the goverment (whom you elect) may at any time decide to take it away. If the government can suspend your right to land ownership for "the greater good" where does it end. Sorry I can't think more positively about this, I understand your grouchiness and you deserve it. The wife and I have our collective eye on some very inhospitible (read hard to develop) land for our future endeavors. Best of luck Mr. Gorman.bamboohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08826063942691904531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36128951.post-58584855606377043072007-10-06T16:12:00.000-07:002007-10-06T16:12:00.000-07:00Thanks.

Problem with the zoo is that one of the goats is in rut and he keeps trying to hump his brother and bash me in a goat-challenge every time I go to do yard work. His eyes turn a strange grey, he makes different sounds than usual and is generally ornery to the n'th degree.<BR/> Hell, even if I agree to a little kissing it doesn't seem to do anything but get him more fired up.....LOL<BR/>Thanks for reading and writing...Peter Gormanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010025416629344748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36128951.post-90385613069759832192007-10-06T15:43:00.000-07:002007-10-06T15:43:00.000-07:00Owwwwie in the heart.Your post catapulted me back ...Owwwwie in the heart.<BR/><BR/>Your post catapulted me back in time to when I was in my twenties and had a little 4.6 acre plot of farmland on which I raised goats for milk and chickens for eggs. Loved that place. The municipal airport expanded and gobbled it right up, no choice for me. Bye bye idyllic life.<BR/><BR/>There will be a different beautiful piece of earth and nature for you and your family... let your eyes begin to see it... <BR/><BR/>Sorry for your upsetting news. <BR/><BR/>Oh-- <BR/><BR/>How is the trip preparation coming? :)<BR/><BR/>Have a good weekend at the Gorman Zoo!Hummingbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06472911361719330133noreply@blogger.com
