lved with all the student activities available to him in order to make alot of friends my youngest son david is growing up very fast as well he keeps us all on our toes with his clever remarks and his witty comments he is so much like his dad its silly i have really enjoyed being back in arizona and chandler where i grew up arizona is the place for us and i love that heat babay posted by big tom the great and magnificent at 12 07 pm 1 comment saturday january 2 2010 fair weather or true blue fair weather fan 1 a fan of a sports team who only shows support when the team is doing well during hard times they usually bandwagon other teams they basically have no real loyalty to the team but still manage to get better seats than you at the game strangely they mysteriously vanish at the first sign of trouble 2 certain people who only support a sports team when said sports team is having a winning season 3 people who only support sports teams when they are doing well ie when the weather is fair if their team is losing they don t claim to be a fan and in fact they strongly criticize and abandon them but when their team is winning they are obnoxious to the highest degree true blue fan 1 idiomatic indubitably loyal or faithful 2 will unconditionally stand behind and support their team regardless of mistakes losing record past failures and negative outside influence 3 will proudly and openly support their team and stand up to those that criticize and look for any and all positive aspects of the team even when positive things are hard to find or few and far between i have always said that there is not one life lesson that cannot be learned through sports i am thankful for the few true blue fans i have in my life and you know who you are there is no room nor do i have the time or patience for the fence sitters in my book you are true blue or you are a yankees fan period posted by big tom the great and magnificent at 4 34 am no comments thursday november 19 2009 to all christians twas the month before christmas when all through our land not a christian was praying nor taking a stand see the pc police had taken away the reason for christmas no one could say the children were told by their schools not to sing about shepherds and wise men and angels and things it might hurt people s feelings the teachers would say december 25th is just a holiday yet the shoppers were ready with cash checks and credit pushing folks down to the floor just to get it cds from madonna an x box an i pod something was changing something quite odd retailers promoted ramadan and kwanzaa in hopes to sell books by franken fonda as targets were hanging their trees upside down at lowe s the word christmas was no where to be found at k mart and staples and penny s and sears you won t hear the word christmas it won t touch your ears inclusive sensitive di ver si ty are words that were used to intimidate me now daschle now darden now sharpton wolf blitzen on boxer on rather on kerry on clinton at the top of the senate there arose such a clatter to eliminate christ in all public matter and we spoke not a word as they took away our faith forbidden to speak of salvation and grace the true gift of christmas was exchanged and discarded the reason for the season stopped before it started so as you celebrate winter break under your dream tree sipping your starbucks listen to me choose your words carefully choose what you say shout merry christmas not happy holiday please all christians join together and wish everyone you meet during the holidays a merry christmas christ is the reason for the christ mas season posted by big tom the great and magnificent at 2 11 pm no comments monday october 12 2009 comatose by skillet its the song playing i hate feeling like this i m so tired of trying to fight this i m asleep and all i dream of is waking to you tell me that you will listen your touch is what i m missing and the more i hide i realize i m slowly losing you comatose i ll never wake up without an overdose of you chorus i don t wanna live i don t wanna breathe les i feel you next to me you take the pain i feel waking up to you never felt so real i don t wanna sleep i don t wanna dream cause my dreams don t comfort me the way you make me feel waking up to you never felt so real i hate living without you dead wrong to ever doubt you but my demons lay in waiting tempting me away oh how i adore you oh how i thirst for you oh how i need you bridge breathing life waking up my eyes open up don t leave me alone posted by big tom the great and magnificent at 8 06 pm 3 comments tuesday august 18 2009 friends i have been pondering many things lately i have been really thinking about what it means to be someones friend we had a lesson this week during church that was geared toward joseph smith and what his friends meant to him and what he meant to his friends out of all his close friends few remained true to him including heber c kimball brigham young and willard richards willard richards who was one of joseph s closest friends said to him that if they were going to hang joseph that he w richards would be hung in his stead now the big question was proposed would you be hung for any of your friends or would any of them be hung for you the answer is this for me at least i have several friends that i would be hung for and i believe at least half of them would be hung for me now obviously i would take a bullet for most anyone in a situation where a quick decision and action was required but to make a pre meditated decision to actually be hung for someone this is a whole new ball game now i believe there are those that don t value their own lives due to unhappiness and what not that would maybe do it for someone simply because they don t care but in general most people value their lives and i believe would be very reluctant to have a hangman s noose wrapped around their neck and hung for everyone to see just to spare the life of a friend like i said i have a few that i would gladly do it for and maybe half would do it for me i want my close friends to know that i appreciate everything they do for me and they know who they are i love them like brothers we should remember who are friends are and continue to strengthen one another and build that bond i cherish my friendships and am thankful for my friends i know joseph smith was the prophet of god and that he had important things to accomplish here on this earth but i know his close friends were willing to protect him with their lives because he was such a good friend posted by big tom the great and magnificent at 12 04 am 1 comment friday august 7 2009 aaaaahhhhhh arizona we re home posted by big tom the great and magnificent at 11 58 am

to missouri is as many of you know my love for the kansas city royals we had our first opportunity to go to a royals game it wasnt the home season opener but it was the second home game against the much hated yankees it was a beautifal day to go and wear our blue and whites and support the team the kids got their faces all painted up ad we were ready to go we sat on the top row of the highest part of the grandstands as paying for 6 tickets is not cheap but the kids didnt mind being in the nose bleed section we ate our hoy dogs and cheered on the big blue and then we went down to check out the festivities around the newly rebuilt park the stores and the kids play areas were awesome we got our pictures taken with the statues of frank white dick howser and of course the man himself george howard brett the greatest hitter of all time it was a fun family night and we look forward to many more royals games this season posted by big tom the great and magnificent at 1 44 pm no comments friday january 30 2009 arizona i see how it is we leave arizona and the cards make the playoffs and go to the superbowl no less that figures i am not gonna lie to you people i think i have a mild case of the winter blues i absolutely love it here in missouri and i am growing quite fond of the new friends and such that i am making here i do however miss the what i used to think was cold winters in arizona i can definitely manage it as this is really not that bad however when you take the icy streets and the cold wind and the dirty truck which everyone knows i hate and the chapped lips and the frozen pipes and the muddy floors and the slippery walkways with bad knees and the 3 layers of clothes and the non starting motors i tell ya kids it really piles up now i try harder than most in my opinion to always keep a positive outlook on things and be the glass is half full kind of guy but when your water freezes and the glass cracks does it really matter if it was half full or half empty i am up late tonight with my insomnia pondering a few things and i want to bring to light a few of these thoughts i am amazed at the things that i thought were once black and white are now a little grey i also am surprised about the things that were once grey in my mind are now black and white i am looking forward to things that are coming ahead and am very optimistic despite my sarcastic tone i will take some more pictures and write some more in the near future i must now get some sleep until then go cardinals go b j penn and goodnight posted by big tom the great and magnificent at 1 14 am 3 comments saturday december 6 2008 choice and talking water i m not sure why this topic is on my mind at the moment but i will write a few points that come to mind before i head to bed people since the beginning of this earth have had issues with responsibility adam when asked why he partook of the forbidden fruit he answered eve gave it to me when eve was asked why she partook of the fruit she replied the serpent beguiled me why is it that mankind has such blindness when it comes to recognising where fault truly lies we all have been guilty of it i m no exception for sure i have come across those that always tend to blame others for the way they are feeling they feel sad because so and so did this to them or they feel irritated because they had to deal with this person today we ve all done it the fact is no one has the ability to make you or i feel any way unless we allow it to happen therefore the fault is our own i have had many many discussions with different people who have tried to argue this point with me and i have yet been convinced to the otherwise i have the choice to be happy or miserable no matter the circumstances yes i know some have more difficult challenges to overcome than others yes i know that i don t know how others feel nor have i walked in their shoes however i do know that the choice is still ours there are countless stories of those who have faced the most extreme adversities and have had the most outstanding attitude and prevailed all this being said this line of thinking has taken me a little sideways as i am about to contradict myself we are all on this earth together as brothers and sisters as children of our father in heaven we are all connected and essentially one entity we are all organised intelligence with endless possibilities where all we lack is knowledge because of this it is important for us to show love and kindness to all our brothers and sisters on this earth am i saying that we have the ability to cause another person to feel a certain way yes and no we can most definitely influence others for good or bad but again they have to allow it to happen there has to be some crucial importance to the main principle that christ taught while on this earth as i have loved you love one another why is this so important the answer is simple the love we show others will bring us closer to oneness we are not separate from everyone else this idea is what is essentially killing us we are luminous beings not just matter we feed off of positive energy and we die with negative energy this sounds completely nuts coming from my mouth i know but i have felt the need to write it back to responsibility we need to rid ourselves of negative feelings this is our own responsibility there is no room in our minds for anger hate fear self doubt jealousy suspicion only love maybe i m writing this so we all keep this in mind for the holiday season i don t know we ...
