Orange Show Dating Advice
Its Memorial Day weekend! In the Inland Empire of Southern California it meas the Orange Show is on now. So the dreaded Orange Show Curse is on. Not just because of the rain, but also because any time you take a date there it is usually the last date you go on, if you are not married. I speak from experience, folks. I have taken 3 dates there and every time it was the last one. So if you have a budding relationship stay away. if you want to be "just friends"...ok.

Meg Whitman charges Steve Poizner in hit campaign pieces of spending too much money on new cars while serving as California's Insurance Comissioner. They even show his head bobbing out of Impala convertibles with big chrome wheels.
Her claim is true. However, my investigation has found he may have saved the state $9 million a year. How? By ordering a top to bottom review of the State Compensation Insurance Fund (SCIF), the states "public option" for workers compensation insurance. In response, SCIF is purging 1000 cars from it's fleet. This in accordance to a story in the Workers Comp Executive, an online trade journal for workers compensation managers published 5/10/2010. The move has met some opposition from the powerful SEIU, but most of the cars being eliminated were driven by managers and executives as personal perks, not cars used for field work.
It seems to me Steve Poizner has demonstrated an ability to save the state money on cars, but also face down a powerful government workers union. He or Meg will need this skill if they are to save California from financial meltdown.

Supreme Single Lady
President Barak Obama nomiated Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court. One of the issues is that she is 50 years old and has never been married. She is a single career woman. Does that matter to the job at hand? It shouldn't. David Souter is never married, and it didn't matter then. But then again our world has changed. There are more unmarried adults than married adults, due to divorces, deaths, living-together arrangements. Sex has been decoupled from marriage. We singles need advocates at high levels so that more "single friendly" policies can be made that can make the dream of all persons being equal more of a reality whatever your marital status is.

road trip to romance?
How far would you go for a spouse? On my way home from a friends 50rh birthday party last night i was listening to Tim Conway jr. on kfi am 640. They were featuring these two former news anchor reporter ladies travelling around the country looking for husbands. They devoted themselves to their careers, found themselves still single, and their biological clocks are screaming. I checked out their website highwaytoahusband.com They are nice looking ladies, but half the men would not approach them becuase of their careers. In my opinion they are emitting despirate vibes, and will not be successful in their mission, unless they are willing to become the kind of women men look for in a wife. They are beautiful, but are they godly? Do they know Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord? Are they willing to die to self and become supportive partners to their future husbands?
A lot of American men go out of our country looking for wives. My best earthly friend went to the Phillipines to find a wife, and found one praying for a husband. They met, talked, wrote to each other for a year. He brought her over, and within months they were married. My advice to women who want to be married is know what your getting into. Be as attractive and approachable as possible, but let the man do the pursuing. The proof of love is in the pursuit.
Just a quick post. What do you think?

Bloomington New Years Resolutions
Bloomington Blogger wishes you a happy and prosperous New Year. 2010 will have to be better than last year. If we committ to these ten things for our liitle town, 2010 can mark a turning point for our hometown..So here goes.
1. We will come together as a town.
2. We will stand up and be counted in the census. Watch the mail for U.S. Census forms, fill them out, and return them in the mail. This will affect all levels of funding for the coming decade for infrastructure improvements we will need to attact tax generating employers to the town.
3. We will strive to improve ourselves individually.
4. We will stamp out visible homelessness. No excuse for veterans, women and children out on the streets. 39% are white males. Where is the outrage? Reverse discrimination, perhaps?
5. We will attend Municipal Advisory Committee meetings. First Tueesday of each month at Ayala Park community center, 7 p.m.
6. We will not buy anything from illegal street vendors, such as tejuino stands, churro carts, or street flower gals. Let's support established local businesses and restaurants, instead.
7. We will not tolerate graffiti. You can call the We Tip hotline anonymously to report it.
8. We will drive safely, soberly, with a CA drivers license and adequate insurance.
9. We will fight for fair and just immigration reform that will protect our borders as well as the rights of citizens and those who want to become U.S. citizens.
10. We will fight to improve and widen the I-10/Cedar Avenue interchange, so Bloomington will not be divided north and south.

2009 EGG NOG BLOG
Hello family and friends!
My infamous Christmas newsletter is back by unpopular demand. So have an eggnog or other favorite drink, and enjoy this trashy holiday tradition.
2009 has been, for me, a year of recovery. I was shot while robbed at AutoZone in Rancho Cucamonga, during work time, in October 2007. Being close to death, i realize all the more how important faith, friends and family have been to my recovery. I want to thank God, Jesus Christ, my family-particularly my mother and sister, my church The Bridge Church of the Nazarene, and the legal team of Cleveland and Metz, and all the doctors and medical professionals for all the roles they have played in managing my workers comp claim and my recovery. It is still ongoing in the mental and social areas, but i am physically recovered whole.
I realize God still has me on earth for a purpose. My aim in life is to be more like Him, and live life at it's fullest every day.
I was priveleged to be the best man at John McMurtrey's wedding in February 2009. He found himself a woman in the Phillipines who was praying for a husband when he walked by. He struck up a conversation with Mary Rose. One thing led to another, they started calling and writing, and he worked to bring her to America. She arrived with her daughter and soon they became a family of sorts. Finally John has a measure of happiness he has been searching for years. He has rededicated himself back to Jesus, too. His nephew Ian, along with his mom and dad, were baptised as a family this year, too. We had a great wedding at the I Do Wedding Chapel in Moreno Valley, CA.
I am still single and available. Not only am i a parts counterperson at AutoZone, i am a writer. I am working on a book proposal about dating and courtship for Christian men, based on the story of Moses. i also want to be an advocate for truly fair and just workers comp reform. i have so many projects i will go with my heart.
My nephews are doing well. Brent Vaughn graduated from the University of Oregon this past summer, and will complete his degree in January. He is an honors with a double major in Psychology and Spanish. He would like to go serve on the Peace Corp, Americorps, or teacher corps, then possibly go to grad school, to be a counselor for at-risk youth or a teacher.
David Perry, my other nephew has come back to California. He is working in IT and enrolled in a college like University of Phoenix. He is one of my many Facebook friends.
A couple of my friends went home to be with the Lord this year. One was Mike Marks. He was a race car driver who got involved with Raceway Ministries, who serve professional race car drivers and their families, like Mark Martin. He was friendly, outgoing man who loved Jesus, and shared his love in the motorsports. His church was full to overflowing with people as his life celebration.
Just recently Loney Gilson died suddenly of a heart attack. His funeral was Saturday. He was a dear friend of mine, as was his wife, daughter, brothers. Pray for the Gilson family. Heavens gain is an earthly loss.
I pray that you and yours have a merry Christmas, a happy holiday season, and a blessed New Year. If you want to know more about Jesus Christ, myself, or workers comp reform, write me an email at royaperry@yahoo.com
Love, peace, happiness in Jesus
