No one left for the straight guys

Same sex marriage is in the headlines in Australia.
Then I read in a posting from America:-
A group of mostly Protestant and evangelical church leaders, representing churches with over 20 million members, are asking the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) National Council meeting this week to retain the current BSA stance on sexuality. The May 22-24 meeting will consider a proposal to prohibit “discrimination” based on “sexual orientation or preference,” while leaving in place the current prohibition on openly homosexual Scout leaders.
Back in my grandfathers day women were made to ride a horse side saddle as this could be make a woman to go off so to speak. Rules were usually made for a reason in those days. Can I marry my horse they might ask? Then there is female circumcision in some countries why? Because  there is not much to do and sexual activity had to be curbed and this was the way to do it. These things were done back in the times of Jesus and they didn't know any other way.
Then what will they ask  to marry next? 
 Is there is no one left for the straight guy.
Food for thought!!!

One working parent

Having two working parents was to get the TOYS for the family. Now it is a must to have both working to get buy. Reduce the debt and the insurances be it life or house one car as the wife can then do the child care from home, this is the way to make ends meet.
Equal rights for women what a load of bullshit, I like my women to be women, Dainty not a brickies laborer with foul mouth or a high flying executive with no feelings.
Women have lost there way and what they want.
It was great to come home to a home cooked dinner at the table, Now its fast food in front of the TV set watching repeats of American bullshit from the sixty's.

Building with timber

Have you ever sat and watched an open fire burn. Then you place another piece of 4x2 on the fire. watch where the fire starts at the corners and then the wood is slowly consumed. Taking advantage of this if the timber was round as in the raw so to speak it takes longer for the timber to start to burn. Why ? There is no hot spot on the round to start to burn as there is with milled square timber. The milled timber also has the saw cuts that produce corners for hot spots to form. In comparison the round with bark fully removed is smooth and there is no areas of hot spots to start to burn. If houses were built with this in mind there would be less tendency for them to burn down. Trees in the wild resist fast moving fires and if  the fire gets inside them the heat generated is reflected to the near by surfaces which then speeds up the process.

De bunking the mith

Reducing overheads and De bunking the mith.

For those of you who are not business minded this is getting rid of unneeded bills.  Insurance is on of those bills and a large one at that, followed by water rates and electricity bills. I am talking from the position of being single so it is easier.
What does one really need to live in relative comfit.
Some where to keep dry and safe
some where to keep NEEDED items
Some where to cook a basic meal
some where to keep clean
Some where to relax
As you can see the list is not massive.
My mate has a place at Lightening Ridge and the temperatures rise and fall massively.
He had two sheds made from steel, with wooden floors from one of my demolition sites. The sheds were clad with roller doors and the frames from bed frames. Total cost in the hundreds, then there was two water tanks of one thousand liters each.
On one occasion we went for a walk during the day and got one hundred yards away and were forced to return to the safety and comfit of the sheds.
This was a halleluiah moment for me and  one I am sharing here with you.
The other halleluiah moment has been dealing with an insurance company and realizing my mistake carried over forty years.
Concrete and steel and aluminum windows are high in embodied energy they say.
Lets debunk this mith, wooden house insurance for forty years the cost to the environment to pay for this insurance in fuel to go to work child care wear and tare on the car, the insurance on the car all paid for in environmental dollars.
Concrete house with aluminum windows with steel reinforcing. Paid for once no painting and maintenance, fire proof water proof wind proof no insurance resistant to vandals it just won't go away.
We have not yet seen fully engineered houses made from light weight concrete. Rubbish can be imbedded into concrete along with paper polystyrene plastic. If you then cover the whole thing with dirt the energy consumption of the house goes down.
You will never see this type of building become the normal as the vested interests of the building industry and insurance companies will stop there construction.
What do the rich people live in?  Concrete! What are government buildings made from? Concrete!
What are the insurance company buildings made from? Concrete!What are malls and shops made of concrete!
Concrete houses are cheaper in the long run by far in environmental dollars, you will not need the child care and the working wife to live. Living is not going to work every day of your life leaving your unpaid insured house alone for who ever, who maybe wants and takes its contents.
You have a life to pursue happiness that's your constitutional right if you live in U.S.of A.
Look during the second world war there was a bomber that smashed into the Empire State Building and it never came down, Why? No explosives and you guessed it Concrete!

Not to worry

I see where the Cypress people have had all there money stolen by the banks to prop up a failing system. After losing everything to flood and then having the insurance company take all my tools in the name of replacing and repairing them in two weeks and returning them. I have given up on this ever happening. This is what I call legal thievery and will be more common in the years to come.

Affirmations

Affirmations are things we ask for and ingrain into our brain.
I have one "everybody loves me everybody gives me money and good things in abundance"
Yes it works and maybe too good.
I was sitting in my lounge chair watching a bit of TV when I noticed some movement at my front fence. I stood up and this 12 year old aboriginal kid flung a fifty cent piece straight into the front window and smashing it and I was showered with fine glass shards the cooko' clock fell off the wall and smashed into pieces.
Be careful what you ask for as you might receive it in a way that you might not like.

Lets all contribute to our new country

Refugees coming to Australia could be made welcome if they did two things.
1/ Contribute a kidney to the commonwealth for kidney transplants.
2/ They go on the doner registry to donate all there body parts when they die or are killed in an accident.
I having worked all my life and have paid taxes and ended up with a broken body feel that these people could contribute to the system that they are going to benefit from.
