Suburban Summer

Okay, you experienced this event almost every summer. In my neighborhood and two houses away from mine, on the same street, it is always a live party going on. The road was filled and packed with lots of vehicles. I wasn't there and I didn't view the whole scene. I did look out the window in the other room and I could see the scene, but not close though. Actually, I viewed it, but not that clearly. But I know what was going on. When I viewed the scene, I saw colored lights and I heard a live disc jockey playing hip-hop music. Imagine if your neighbor or anyone who lives near you throws annual parties with a disc jockey that plays hip-hop music, it will be another dimensoin of Sirius Satellite Radio by sitting by your open window or an open door. Even if you are outside in your garden. It is also like an outside nightclub without outdoor guards. I assume that it is some kind of a personal event. Do you remember the guy next door who played records back then? Today, the person who lives two houses away always have better plans to make. I remember when I was going to the mall just to buy things. I had to squish myself through the crowd. Security was there guarding the people. Alright, back on the topic. Events like that can be pretty unusual and very rare because it is usually hard to book personal parties like that. I don't know if the person has a disc jockey in the family or the person just hires then and then pay. I know this can sound kind of fun, but still, the road I live on was absolute unbelievable. During the hour of 2 a.m. in the morning, the scene was clear and the coast was clear. And the atmosphere was back to clean. All the cars were gone. Everything was back to a quiet night. Everything is back to normal.

Be God's.

Jury Duty Scams

Jury Duty Scam

URGENT!

Security - JURY DUTY SCAM

This has been verified on Snopes.com (link listed below) and by the FBI (their link is also included below). Please pass this on to everyone in your email address book

It is spreading fast so be prepared should you get this call. Most of us take those summons for jury duty seriously, but enough people skip out on their civic duty, that a new and ominous kind of scam has surfaced. Fall for it and your identity could be stolen, reports CBS.

In this con, someone calls pretending to be a court official who threateningly says a warrant has been issued for your arrest because you didn't show up for jury duty. The caller claims to be a jury coordinator. If you protest that you never received a summons for jury duty, the scammer asks you for your Social Security number and date of birth so he or she can verify the information and cancel the arrest warrant. Give out any of this information and your identity was just stolen.

The scam has been reported so far in 11 states. This (scam) is particularly insidious because they use intimidation over the phone to try to bully people into giving information by pretending they're with the court system.

The FBI and the federal court system have issued nationwide alerts on their web sites, warning consumers about the fraud.

Once Country!!! Forever Country!!!

This is another true story I ever wrote. It is about my life, my hometown, and what I accomplished. This is how I describe myself. I am an small-town country boy. I do have a large family who lives in the urban area and I have another family who lives in the suburban area. I live in the streets of suburbia. When I was in school, I accomplished plethora things. I helped some people when needed and I show respect to people. No matter how small or large. Sometimes I think about going out into the city. Even if I live in the city, it does not change myself for myself. Since I am from the country, that's my status. Even if I live somewhere else, I am still country. And I am proud. I am still God's child, that's for sure. My friends told me not to change for anyone. So I wish them luck.
