OK.....I sat through and watched as the masses praised and worshiped the annointed one!  It was all I could to not get truly sick.  For so much to be lauded over a man with little substance I will never understand.  Then today we have the McCain bombshell about his choice as his running mate in Mrs. Palin.  While I like the choice, and think it will be a strong ticket...I really cant take anymore.

To think that we have three more months to be hammered daily with political rhetoric is painfull enough.  I think it would be more enjoyable to have my head smashed in a table vice or take a nail gun to my head than endure three more months of posturing and bravado from political hacks! 

Im ready to vote for Santa Claus!

On a recent drive / pilgrimage to the town of Goliad to visit Fort Defiance, I happened across an unusual site.  While I didn't stop to try their food, you almost cant help but wonder where a place in the middle of no where really gets their meats?  I guess if you dont want to try the blue plate find of the day, you can always have one of "Almas durn fine pies." 

By the way, Fort Defiance is a sacred place for us Texans...  it was the site of the famed Goliad Massacre, where over 300 men under the command of Col. James W. Fannin were ruthlessly murdered by the Mexican Army in late March of 1836.
