 Well there is a saying all good things must come to an end. Today, Friday, January 16th brings this blog to an end. Don't fear I am not done blogging just because of some technical issues  , I will have a new blog with a new address. The link along with the address to it will be posted here on Monday.

Please know I am very thankful to all of you who have read my posting here, and I am also thankful to those of you who have posted a comment about one of my postings even if  we didn't see eye to eye on something. I hope most of you if not all of you will follow me to my next blog.

Thanks and God Bless You, and Yours.

Cold Day in Nebraska

Posted by Billy email MADBillyD@aol.com on Thursday, January 15, 2009 3:17:05 PM

It is a cold day here in Nebraska. This morning it was 3 degrees below 0 and the wind chill made it even colder. I thought schools might get called off so I was hoping to be able to do a lot of blogging this afternoon, but they weren't so I will have to save my blogging for tonight. Keep warm.

Blogging from Cuba

Posted by Billy email MADBillyD@aol.com on Friday, December 26, 2008 3:30:35 PM

 In the palace of a fallen dictator, the grade-school kids in their red Communist Pioneer bandanas are getting their mandatory introduction to the glories of the revolution. (Cuba's revolution turns 50, an aging Castro's grip is softer at edges, unyielding at heart)
Clattering from one display case to the next, they gaze wide-eyed at an antique gun, a fighter's bloodied shirt, the engine of a downed U.S. spy plane. Moving on, they stare at the yacht named Granma that carried Fidel Castro back from exile to launch his guerrilla war, and the combat boots his brother-successor wore as a ponytailed 27-year-old rebel.

The palace of Fulgencio Batista, the ruler whom Castro overthrew, is now the Museum of the Revolution, and these 6- and 7-year-olds are the heirs to a communist government about to turn 50 — a system that may be softening at the edges but appears determined to crush any threat to its grip on power, lest it crumble like its one-time godfather, the Soviet Union.

Since Castro declared victory on New Year's Day, 1959, the day after Batista fled the country, his rule has prevailed through 10 U.S. presidents, the U.S.-backed Bay of Pigs invasion, a world-shaking missile crisis, the U.S. embargo, the Soviet collapse and the onslaught of globalization. Now 82, he is ailing and out of sight but still the head of the Communist Party of Cuba. Raul Castro, his successor as president, is taking baby steps toward change and vowing to fend off any challenge to his brother's legacy.

Dissidents have a new way to reach the outside world — blogging. Yoani Sanchez, 33, gets her message out by dressing like a tourist and slipping into a hotel with Web access for foreigners. She works quickly at a computer terminal and gets out before someone notices her.

In a posting this month, Sanchez noted that the government, which used to send gays to labor camps, now accepts homosexuality. So why not political opposition? she asked. "Why does the adjective 'counterrevolutionary' continue to be used for those who think differently?"

 

(Lets all keep hoping and praying the nation of Cuba is changed soon and the government is replaced with one which will allow her  people the freedoms we enjoy here in the West.)

Sorry about lack of Posting

Posted by Billy email MADBillyD@aol.com on Thursday, December 18, 2008 9:00:37 PM

I am sorry that I have not been able to do much posting  on this blog. I have been busy with my Christmas Party at work, and I  had to drive my mom somewhere today. However after work today I am off  until next year. That is a blessing with working at a school around Christmas and New Years you get quite a lot time off. Of course the downside with my job  is I don't get paid unless I work.

Special Blogging

Posted by Billy email MADBillyD@aol.com on Saturday, November 01, 2008 6:15:27 PM

Most Saturday and Sundays  I do very little if any posting on my blog. However since the  most important election of my lifetime will be taking place this coming Tuesday, I am going to do as much blogging as possible in the next 24 hours. So check back many times the next few days.
