    The lettuce has gotten better, the broccoli came out and stalled and the spinach will not even start.
    At what point did our government cease to be of the people, by the people, and for the people?

    Re: Frustrating

    My Father was killed in the South Pacific during WWII 6 days before I was born. My mother didn't know what to do so I was raised by my Grandparents. My Grandfather and I use to go fishing quite often (as often as field work would permit). He some how always managed to catch almost all the fish (I was lucky to catch 1 or 2).

    One day I asked him why I couldn't catch as many fish as him when I was actually sitting right beside him. His response was "You're not holding your mouth right".

    With that weighing heavy on my mind, I began to secretly watch him out of the corner of my eye and try to memick the way he held his mouth.

    It was years later, long after his passing that I thought about what he had done and that he had intentionally been making funny faces just for my benefit and what a kick he must have gotten out of watching me trying to do the same riduculous faces with my mouth as he had done.

    Then again maybe there was something to what he said because I never was able to catch as many fish as he did even when I was 18 years old and getting ready to leave home and him still "SITTING RIGHT BESIDE ME" on that same ditch bank we had fished on from the time I was able to toddle.

    We had the same kind of cane poles, shame kind of hooks and the worms, well I was the one that had dug them up and they all looked the same to me.

    Could there have been something to what he said

    My point Roger:-

    "MAYBE YOU AREN'T HOLDING YOUR MOUTH RIGHT!"

    Re: Frustrating

    Before April this year I was getting in anywhere from 40 to 45 hours per week...then Obamacare came along and the USPS Mail contractor I work for did what most corporations are doing...cutting hours so they have no full time employees.

    My hours have been cut to 31 hours per week.

    Thats a total of 468 hours per year shortfall which is equal to a $10,300.00 loss in income. If you include the 260 hours at time and one half...that's another $8,580.00 income shortfall for a total of $18,880.00 income loss for the year...but Obamacare is really great for those that don't work for a living.

    Yep, this 70 year old trucker is really rollin' in the dough

    I truly do not understand how no one can put a stop what OBAMA and his mafia are doing to America
