  I thought that I had time, and then woke up one day, and didn't. It was then that I came to the realization that I was closer to the end of this deal, than the beginning. Old age snuck up on me when I wasn't lookin. I lived life, fast and on my terms because I wanted no regrets, but it didn't work out that way. Regret is written on my face like a silent truth, and a failed fools folly.

Man is the duality of the human existence. He is both evil, and good, are all men at sometime or another. Either in action, or thought.

  So I was bumpin around in the Central Valley of California, coming home from mt cousins place in Redding. It was hot, and there was too much traffic. I dawned on me that I hadn't been in that valley since I met my mother's second husband in Fresno for lunch on my way to Sac on Caltrans business in '08. The place had changed, and it had not. It was different. I saw the beginnings, or remnants or what you want to call it, of the high speed rail project in Fresno. It was a very nice looking bridge over a river. On my way home, I passed through Mohave Ca, near Edwards AFB. It dawned on me that the last time I was there too was the same trip for the state. I saw my father on Hwy 58.

Just then am old man and his wife came by my closure at a high rate of speed, and ran my stop sign but stopped eventually. I held him up for about 10 minutes to slow him down. A couple hours later were finished working, and eating lunch. We were dispatched up the road to do a closure for a car accident. I was on the flag stand again, and a Forest Service officer asked if I had seen the car, I replied that I had, They wanted me to come and identify the car for more possible victims. Apparently, from what I gleaned from the CHP officer working the scene, this G35 missed a turn, went off the highway, hit and sheared off a 4 foot diameter oak tree, then was pitched around another. The the CHP told me from the skid marks, not from braking, but from skidding, the car left the road at 140 plus mph. I went up looked at the car, and the old woman from earlier was sticking out from the sunroof. The...

No, that is an example that government being stupid, and shortsighted. Trump and his carpetbagging but buddy Musk, are wealthy men starving the poor. The mentality of government has not changed with DOGE, it merely transitioned from an older incompetent master thief to a newer one. Which means all DOGE did was nothing. It did not change the inherent wasteful bureaucratic mentality of government.                                                                           on Donald Trump administration burning food meant for                                                              ...
