 Howdy, so it's been a while since I've done a video because my mind's just been muddled I've had all kind of things going on or not going on and I just hadn't really wanted to sit down and do one But this has been an interesting week, especially the last three days And so I decided I wanted to do a video and it'll go out on Saturday Geez, what is this June? That's the best we need to know So let's get right into it. The first thing I want to talk about is the Affordable Care Act I call it ACA some other people use this word that I think they use it in a pejorative way I'm not using it. So I'm gonna call it the Affordable Care Act and on Thursday the Supreme Court basically said that the intent of the act was to help people not hurt people and So they let it stand now. Here's my take on the whole thing. I Have insurance because of the Affordable Care Act. I just do There's a lot of people who are able to get health services because of the Affordable Care Act Whether they have insurance through the health exchange or not a lot of people haven't really thought about that thing It used to be pre-existing conditions. Well, that's gone because of the Affordable Care Act And I love the opinion that the majority of people who don't want it are people who aren't on it It's people who aren't even affected by it. They say they are but they're not You're not the rich people because rich people who cares about me and all the 1% I don't care about them. They've got health insurance and people if you already have insurance do your you know where you're working What do you care? You just you know basically being toadies for the rich. I don't want to hear it So your opinion means nothing pretty much like anything else that you don't have Your yourself that you decide you need to step into your opinion doesn't matter It doesn't affect you at all. It affects other people. That's number one number two on Friday the Supreme Court Let basically they said that same-sex marriages are Fair and equal and you know what? Way to go. It should have always been that way You know, I don't understand what people really have this thing about it If you're trying to tell me it's because of your religion You're wrong because it's not in the Bible. You can make up anything you want to you can interpret anything you want to It's not in your Bible. It just ain't there You know, let's just face it for what it is now I don't know who wrote this a long time ago But they basically said that people who are scared of homosexuals or homosexual marriage are actually worried that They just might be or that someone homosexual is gonna hit on them because they're gonna find them attractive Are you really that shallow? Really? Come on. It ain't gonna happen. Nobody cares what you think they don't care about any of that stuff Let people do what they want to do. How does it affect you so they live next door? So what I'm sure they're not the worst neighbors You're ever gonna have who live next door matter of fact most of them are probably gonna be pretty cool So live and let live the Supreme Court got two things right this week I'm stunned myself and actually I'm one of those things that they got done Actually, you got three things, but I'm not gonna talk all that much about one of them Except to say that Clarence Thomas seemed to have remembered at least for one day that he was black That's all I'm saying Now talk to those two things. Let me talk about number three. Which is the topic of blogging Wednesday night I went to a local blogging get-together. I've been to basically what two of these before but it's been a long time So I've been out of town and they've had some get-togethers before them And one of the things that you start to find out when you get to a blogging get-together There's a lot of people ain't blogging on that much and that's a shame. I blog a lot. I have five blogs I love blogging. Yes, it takes up a lot of time, but you know what? It doesn't take me that long to write most posts I wrote a post this week for instance about my 14th year in business and You know, there's gonna be a link up here somewhere regarding that I wrote about answering some questions that came up during this blogging get-together I mean, I've been blogging for 10 years now. There's a lot of things that I know and I find that I like sharing that kind of information with other people. I love the concept of blogging. I Like social media. I can't say I'm totally in love with it because there's a lot of mean people as a matter of fact It's possible that this video could end up with some mean comments Although if the language is bad, you'll never see them because they're not staying but you know There's this thing that also says that social media can't be everything And that's why it's great to be able to say let's have a local blogging get-together Or we will have tweet ups every once in a while where a lot of us who talk to each other locally on Twitter We'll meet somewhere and we'll be able to you know get to know each other better It makes the tweeting experience a little bit better I hope that a lot of you folks are doing the same kind of things in your community. It could be a lot of fun and You know what? That's all I've got to say I don't know how long this video is but I know this is probably one of my shorter ones and I've covered three different topics, you know, you're not gonna get three for one like that all that often from me So there you go I hope you have a wonderful weekend and you know leave me some comments If you've got something to say and if you don't have something to say to me comments anyway, I will talk to you later
