Oh, I don't want to look!!!

I got up to watch John McCain's speech. I honestly thought it was awful!!! He just did not reach the bar! I read that there was a very big professional football game last night, so maybe no one actually watched the speech. It would be good if they just hear a few sound bites on the news. Sarah Palins speech was seen by 37 million people. John Mccain needs to do a much better job reaching the middle or moderate independent voters. He also needs to let Sarah attack the "other side", and he needs to tell people what he actually plans to do to fix all of Americas problems. I don't even want to look at the polls. I felt like he did a real bad job communicating his position. It was like watching someone who does not like to talk about them selves having to talk about them selves. He just was not comfortable and it showed. OK, hopefully he will be more effective during the 3 debates. I just can not watch!!!


Oh, today is the birthday of Thomas...more on that later.

I've not been a McCain fan, but I thought he did a decent job. The last part of the speech was the best where he shared from his heart about his POW experience. He got my vote with Palin, but his words last night sealed it for me.

I just heard more people watched last night than Obama got.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
