Today is May day. This is the day that I would like to see each state make it legal to hunt lawyers. You would need a hunting license. You would have to pay for a permit to hunt down one lawyer. You could not shoot the lawyer at home or in his own yard. You could not trespass in order to shoot one. But any owner of property could put up a sign on May 1st saying hunting legal today.
I am not joking about this.
Lawyers are one of the major threats to our nation. They serve no useful purpose. They have no redeeming social value.
We could even make some money for the government with the hunting permits.
On the subject of hunting. I think the NRA and the Republicans make it legal to hunt down and murder people with their support of the “Stand Your Ground” law.
Do not get me wrong.. People should have the right of self defense and the right to protect their homes. But that has been common law longer than there has been a United States of America. We got common law from England. There was never a problem in the past. We never needed a “Stand Your Ground” law.
Some people might have felt that we did need one.. But now we should see that all of us are in danger from such a law.
I just went out and walked around the apartment complex and I was in danger. Not from some black person attacking me but I was in danger from some person thinking that I was breaking into their car or apartment or running into them as they walked their dog.
I been playing Civ V about 3 or 4 hours a day . That is to long for me to be wasting the time and to long for me to be sitting and letting my left foot and leg swell up. So I am telling myself that this month (May) I am not going to play that game or any game.
When I have nothing to do … We will see how long it is before I am back playing the game.
I am going to get out at night, when it is cooler, and walk around the parking lot. It is hard. Because I am dirt tired all the time. It takes a major effort to just walk. (No I do not weigh 600 pounds. I am at 222 pounds.)
Also another problem is that I take a leak before I go out the door and this is a small apartment complex and often I can not make it one circle around the lot before I have to rush home to take another leak. I am not sure why I am taking water pills.
I signed up for Google Drive. They approved me. It took a day.
I recommend them. God I hate that everything is Google now days.

You know ShowMeBlog is just not growing. There are times when I post something and it gets lots of hits for a day or two. But in general the number of viewers that come to ShowMeBlog each day is not growing. It is staying at about 500 people. I get 97 viewers using an RSS feed from Feedburner (another Google service).
Since the number of people viewing this site is not growing it makes me think that I am doing something wrong.
I suspect it is that a large number of people do not like my politics. I also suspect that many of the posts that put here are things that people would like to find on their own. I think people would like to hear more of what is going on in my life and more about computers.
I blog about what I am thinking about and what is on my mind. I have said in the past that I need to quit posting anything political here. Problem now days is that everything is political.
