From his kitchen to yours, Mountain Home resident Joe Howard will share his favorite recipes with his readers. Sometimes I might just stray from the recipes and share my other 2 cents.

Its an open blog, take your best shot on a comment

I am not interested in these 3 mile long copy and paste either, a brief summary and a link will do. For those that don't want to click and read links that is their right, I don't read all of them either, but I am not going to delete the blog cause I disagree with comments. If some of you would check back in time, the MHN doesn't like people deleting a blog just to remove comments like has been done. Its up to the News Staff to decide if something should be removed. Want to fight it out here's your chance.

I want to know if anyone else out there besides Roy in Caldwell is insane enough to believe that the government microchipping people is a good idea?

Until Brenda or the staff tell me otherwise, I will do with my blogs as I see fit, which includes taking some off-line when there is no hope of getting them off the ugly path some have taken.

Do you think the Federal Government should hand over ownership/control of all public lands to the State of Idaho? FYI: I think the Feds own about 66% of Idaho.

Given that Butch and Co. would sell them to the highest bidder, NEVER!

Yes SW, I do not think Roy is alone. Sad but true. But it is all about voter fraud:)

I can't go along with micro chips, big brother already is doing to much tracking of people, just a few the list is to long to complete, they already watch the internet, people that have GPS in a vehicle, cell phones, and a biggy Social Security Numbers, what can you do today without one, even a new born has to get one.

All this tracking is suppose to be for security, sure hasn't stopped the home grown and their shooting rampages.

Roy you have a sorry attitude about blogs, you just want to control like the Feds, you seem to forget the 1st Amend. with all your trash and what others have to say. Again it appears that you think only your view counts, wrong dude.

Way to many people think vote fraud is so low it just doesn't matter, it matters to me that some or lots get to vote that have no right to.

Good point Buckshot, but your not going to get Roy to change his opinion, if you read or comment on his blog your wide open to be deleted, your comments won't be deleted here unless the MHN does it.

And I'll add that when Pratt posts responses on other's blogs, and you disagree with his opinions, you're "attacking" him. I think he needs to grow a thicker skin. As for reading any of his blogs - complete time waster.

Seems Micro chipping is already in use

. Human microchipping is already in progress; millions of military personnel around the world have been implanted with VeriChip for "security reasons" and some fundamentalist politicians are suggesting prisoners be microchipped for "security reasons; some even go so far as to suggest all newborn babies be microchipped.

Thanks Joe. It's nice to have a place to post where posts are not deleted.

The immature way the other blog site is run is not for me.

I think it is just done to divert from this socialist administration.

I think chipping everyone is a great idea, everyone could have their own pin number. No more carrying wallets or money or cards. Everything about you could be on that chip, health history,family history and photo alblums would be with you at all times. You would not have to remember anything except your PIN. I hope I Don't live long enough to see it.

I didn't look at any blogs over the weekend. I guess that I needed a break.

All of our information is out there for anyone to see. They started this process years ago.

the convenience of a chip would not be my choice ever.

Most of these things start out as a good idea, but it baloons into some kind of monster after a while.

As with all "good" ideas, follow the money trail and see where it ends up.

Ask who funds Snopes, and some of these other information hwy's.

Ask who will make the most money on "green" jobs?

The health insurance bill is a scam also. Being able to be covered for pre-existing conditions comes with a huge price tag.

Bonnie, for me, if I could afford it, bare bones policy, no meds, premium and deductible equals 10K a year, then only 80% of what they consider reasonable.

Hahahahaha! I almost peed myself after reading #11.

-- Posted by KentuckyTransplant on Mon, Apr 16, 2012, at 2:56 PM
Nope I don/t mind Buckshot, its an open blog and besides I thought the whole thing was pretty darn funny HaHaHaHa, still laughing. It would really be funnier yet if there wasn't so much truth in it. A couple of minutes of fun, drunk, sober or whatever then the tax payers get to pick up the tab.

-- Posted by Eagle_eye on Mon, Apr 16, 2012, at 3:54 PM
That was funny, Buckshot, but sad, too - like you said.

-- Posted by Second Wind on Mon, Apr 16, 2012, at 7:15 PM
Now that was funny!

-- Posted by jessiemiller on Wed, Apr 18, 2012, at 11:53 AM
LOL...I knew I should have put my Depends on before I clicked on this one. Very funny!!!!
