Bio
"The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails."
I'm having vision problems today. I can't see myself doing anything at all.
Motivation
"War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children."
"Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God's side, for God is always right."
"Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it."
"The first of April is the day we remember what we are the other 364 days of the year."
Mark Twain
"Water and air, the two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans."
"Based on current production rates and known reserves, petroleum is estimated to last approximately 47 to 56 years, likely running out around 2060. While new discoveries may delay this, the overall consensus is that fossil fuels will be significantly depleted by the middle of this century, with oil lasting 50-53 years, natural gas 53 years, and coal over 100 years."
"My grandfather rode a camel. My father drove a car. I fly my jet. My grandson will ride a camel." - Old Saudi
"There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves."
"I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts."
Will Rogers
When did becoming a politician give someone the right to break the Ninth Commandment?
This must be where they separate church from state.
It never ceases to amaze me how much time, effort, resources and money are wasted towards the degradation and destruction of life, rather than the enhancement and preservation of life.
If waffling, political gaffes and word salad were Olympic events, this administration would win gold.
During a gaggle session between the President and the press on the South Lawn, a question was raised about illegal immigration. In response, the President addressed the press in his usual demeanor, "All illegal immigrants must leave the country. Any more questions?"
A reporter which so happened to be a Native American spoke up, "Mr. President, when are you leaving?"
"Definition of mythology: Genealogy without documentation."
"Genealogy: Where you confuse the dead and irritate the living."
The core mission of "Find a Grave" is to locate and document existing grave sites.
For this reason, I do not accept memorials designated "Burial Details Unknown."
I do not accept newly created memorials without a headstone photo unless evidence can be provided that this memorial is legit.
If no evidence is provided, I'll treat it like a BDU and decline it.
The suggested edits I send have been researched from legitimate documentation provided by genealogical websites, obituaries, or what's inscribed on headstones or grave markers. Whether my suggestions are accepted or declined is up to the contributor.
To those who choose to decline, I apologize for wasting my time.
Please do not add death certificates, census, marriage and military records to the memorials I create and manage.
Anyone can download these records from Ancestry.com and FamilySearch.org for their own personal use. Memorials look best when kept simple and uncluttered.
People with visual impairments have difficulty reading records attached to Find a Grave memorials due to image quality and size. Whereas they have available edit and viewing options at their disposal while viewing opened record images from websites aforementioned.
What good is an obituary newspaper clipping if it isn't legible? Take the time to edit the image so it's legible prior to attachment.
For any attachments other than a headstone photo, make sure you check the appropriate designation (Person, Family or Other). Attachments can automatically default to (Grave).
Newspaper clippings are designed as (Other).
