First, a little backstory. In Parkersburg, Ia, a tiny town in NE Iowa of 1900, a much loved football coach was murdered earlier this year and it came on the heels of a devastating tornado last year which flattene... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/12 Fri, 28 Aug 2009 20:40:37 My cousin, Kelly, had a birthday yesterday. she's 24. That in and of itself is unremarkable, young ladies and gentlemen all over the world are turning 24. But Kelly's story is kind of inspiring, at least to me.
You see, her mother, who is now deceased, slept around and was in and out of jail many t... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/11 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 10:40:30 He is a professional basketball player for the Washington Wizards and he was up there at the Anti-war rally speaking out against the war and the illegal regime that started it. The reason I say he has guts is because the average career of a professional athlete is not a long one and Thomas is puttin... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/10 Sun, 16 Sep 2007 12:41:53 First, I should start by saying that I am a devout heterosexual. I really really like women. In fact, there are some who would say I like the ladies a bit too much. But that's another story for another time.
Anyway, I also have to admit that for many many years I just couldn't deal with the thoug... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/9 Wed, 08 Aug 2007 20:23:45 All of us. Factory workers, executives, teachers, all of us. We who "dare" to question the people who are in power. We who march. We who say what we truly believe even if it means ridicule and scorn. We who do not blindly follow. We who don't blindly worship a piece of cloth just because we are told... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/8 Wed, 04 Jul 2007 00:08:16 Good ol' Clyde Clifford and "The Mighty 1090 KAAY". Quite possibly the finest "underground" radio program of all time. This was during the freewheeling '70's, at least as far as radio was concerned. I miss those days. Many's the night I sat up and listened to the show in my parents kitchen or my roo... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/7 Sat, 16 Sep 2006 22:25:27 but when the president of this land starts insulting the citizens of his own country, that's where the line gets drawn. That motherfucking bush insulted the citizens of America today just as Rumsfeld did yesterday, just as Cheney does almost daily. It is time for every motherfuckin' one of these peo... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/6 Thu, 31 Aug 2006 20:21:49 Now I am not knocking all the people out there who think that each and every thing that happens is a conspiracy. In fact, the more I look at voter fraud in 2000 and 2004, the more likely it seems that it really happened. And I also believe that while bush and co. did not commit 9/11, they certainly ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/5 Sun, 11 Jun 2006 21:58:48 Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, Clapton, Duane Allman,etc. are rightfully ranked as some of the greats of all time. But there have been many others who have, and are, carrying on the craft. These are a few of mine. Please note that I am into Blues and good old Rock and Roll, so my choices will reflect tha... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/4 Sun, 26 Mar 2006 20:56:28 On Lou Dobbs show, the poll question was, and still is, "Are you surprised to find that paying Americans decent wages actually improves rather than hurts the economy?" Now I am not an economist, but it should be obvious to anyone with half a friggin' brain that if people make more money at work, the... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/1 Wed, 15 Mar 2006 19:46:53 Hip Hip Hooray!

I'm torn, I really think that there are more important things for the legilature to worry about, such as education and taxing retiree's pensions. But do we really want Iowa to be known for being a gambling mecca? And those machines are all over the place. Taverns, convenience stores, even ... http://journals.democraticunderground.com/Bluzmann57/3 Wed, 15 Mar 2006 10:42:23
