What a profound short little paragraph….. 1931

July 22nd, 2009 No comments

I love this!

“You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person  must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When  half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”

Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1931

I really enjoyed the Glenn Beck show last night!

June 5th, 2009 No comments

So last night I made my way to the Century 16 and purchased my ticket for the Glenn Beck Common Sense Comedy Tour which was being simulcast from Kansas City.  It was an enjoyable show that offered comedy and some interesting history which I honestly didn’t know.  Glenn makes an excellent case about the way our political parties and country are going.

The particular theater that I went to didn’t have the full house that other theater go’ers have reported.  (But considering I am in CA it wasn’t that big of a surprise!)  Still, there were some where between 50-60 other folks there with me.

Glenn is putting on another show Thursday, June 11.  You can look for a theater near you that is showing the big Encore show.  I bought my picket through Fandango.  To find out more about the upcoming show check Glenn’s website.  If you didn’t see the first show I urge you to catch the second one!

Glenn Beck Common Sense Comedy Tour

June 4th, 2009 No comments

As my first official post I will make a quick entry about my plans for the evening.  I am headed off to the theater to watch the Glenn Beck show he is doing in Kansas City tonight.  Since he announced it would be shown in 440 different theaters I was anxious to go see the show.

As soon as I make this post I am off to see the show!!
