I know no one comes here anymore, but I don't write for others. I'm struggling with my novel. More like I'm struggling with what to write. I've had a story that I've molded in mind for over 30 years. Trouble is I'm not sure I want to write it now. It is a good story, I think, but not something I can write and make a living at. Which is what I want to do, be a writer. It's what I loved as a kid, adult, always. I've written poems (some really great ones!) and short stories for recreation and school. But I want to be a novelist. I don't care if I make 6 figures or not, I just want to do something I really love. But I can't decide what to write about. I'm just so afraid to fail and not get what I want most. It sucks trying to start a new career at age 43.
Oh and one more thing. I love my wife more now then ever. We have endured HORRIBLE times together, but we are still in love. Still in lust. Still best friends. Life is good.
Tell someone you love that you do.
CCB OUT!
I am a work in progress. After 40 plus years on this planet I realize I am no closer to being who I want to be, then I was when I was born.

Halito! Chim Achukma?
So I know I don't post often, but anyway...........
A couple of sore subjects for me concerning Native Americans:
-Why is it that you can get a college credit in foreign language for studying a Native American language? WTF! I believe we were here first! Isn't every other language being spoken here the foreign language?
-The more I read about Native American history the less I like being an American. The European side of me really screwed the Native American side. Come to think of it, I'm kinda hating myself right now......
-The men at Sandy Creek were deviant MF'ers that deserve the hottest part of hell. How can someone butcher human beings the way they did and sleep? And then parade the scalps and "other prizes" around Denver to cheers! Those people were "surrendered". They were mostly women and children. Who shots children, then leaves them groaning on the ground for days? It was truly a horrible day for American history. Funny...I don't remember them ever telling us in school how we got so much land in the first place. Probably because telling impressionable children that we lied, stole, and murdered for it wouldn't really do the trick. I know we'll tell them that the Indians feed the pilgrims and then politely retired from the best parts of the country to the worst, because they were so nice. Definitely better then we killed 17.7 million of them in less then 400 years, that sounds too icky...............
Know the truth. It really does set you free. And make you hate yourself a little more......
CCB out!

Hello?? Is this thing on?
CCB is all up in the howwwzzze!!!
So let's talk immigration. What the hell is wrong with Americans. Why can't we just look at the facts and form our own opinions? Why do we not see the Media spin going on in TV (Whoopi wore a "Los Suns" jersey people! How much MORE obvious can the Media be?!) Why are we allowing Mexican Nationals to challenge American policy? If you wave a Mexican flag you can not comment on what we do. Here's an idea! If you don't like it......LEAVE! I'm sure Guatamala or Panama would love to have you sneek into their country in the dead of night and steal their money! Has anyone really looked at what Arizona is doing? NO. That would be the rational thing. Instead our Government distracts us with everyone screaming look at Arizona, while they push policies through without ANY regard for public opinion. Because our Government know best how to take care of themselv...um I mean us.
No one should be able to come here, pop out a baby and claim they can stay with their new "American" baby! No one else in the entire world does that. If we want sooooo bad to enter the world community (Obama!) then why are we not following other "great" countries policy? Hell even Mexico has stricter control of their borders then we do. DO you really think the Mexican President cares that his people come here to work? Of course not. They make money here (tax free) and take it there. Pumping millions into his faltering economy. Hey, Dude? Maybe your #1 export shouldn't be drugs!!
And why does Joy on the "View" get so much face time? She is a VERY unhappy, and vindictive woman. How many times can the National Represenative of the Tea Party say "We are not about race, or social issues. Only fiscal accountability.." yet she says, "What about gays?" "What about abortion?" "What about these people at your rallies carrying signs?" Hey, Joy! What if your friends sent those people into those meetings with those signs to stir up fear? To give the media a "a-ha!" photo op to say, "See! Told you. They are homophobic, racists! See their signs?" Just saying. Everytime a disenting voice is raised, it gets crucified on TV and by the Government as "bad" for America. Know what's really "bad" for America? A government by the people, for the people that stopped being that so long ago no one can even remember when it happened. Much less why we let it. Oh, wait, I remember why now! We stopped watching and caring. Never mind. Forget I said anything..............
CCB, ranting like a beast since 2000!

For You
Of all the things that life has shown me, none has had a more profound impact then the love you have shown me despite my shortcomings. You have always been my sun, my moon, and all my stars.
