What's he building

Self Respect

I was thinking lately about social networking sites and the people dying for attention that use them. A lot of people are aware of the terrible videos out there like 2 girls and 1 cup, the pain Olympics and more. People search on the Internet for people showing themselves in the worst light. Fighting, drunk, hurting themselves and it is all in the name of what?

What are we becoming? Where is our Fucking pride? Where are our heroes gone?

You wouldn't ever have seen Maureen O'Hara on reality TV, Humphrey Bogart getting his cock out in a film. Steve McQueen and John Wayne never once used the "F" word in a movie. They didn't need to. It seems these days movies are obliged to have tits, ass and sex in them. What happened to story telling?

I think that it wont ever matter what I write on a blog, but I just encourage anyone who leads from the front, by example to show some self respect and really set a good example for our children.

the State of the place

Enda Kenny and his team mark 100 days in office and they are all business. But 100 days of what? Nothing has really changed. Small towns like Roscommon are hurting and there are little signs of recovery. Quite the opposite, Empty shop units, bad roads, people leaving for new countries. Young people leaving education have no prospects here in Ireland and our own job resource The Fas are advertising jobs in Norway, Germany, Canada, USA and New Zealand to help you piss off out of the country and not come back.

I heard Kenny say it is not a politicians place to create employment. Yet Michael Lowry is the voice of this new Casino in Tipp. I suppose the job of Fine Gael right now is to get as many people out of the country and so off the dole as possible by making it impossible to live here. The closing of fundamental needs like hospital accident and emergency units around the country are positive proof of that.

Thanks very fucking much.

I hear that there is a movie on the way called Connemara Days. A story of how the classic John Ford movie starring John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara came to be. Brendan Gleeson taking the role of Victor McLaglen. I would love to see more and I am certain a lot more people would too

Roscommon Hospital 14/6/2011

I heard yesterday that it is very likely that Roscommon Hospital will have the services reduced. The accident and emergency facility will be open from 8am to 8pm and totally closed on weekends. I remember the meetings before the election, the Abbey hotel full of angry people, Fianna Fail politicians cowering and sending forth the lamb to the slaughter. Fine Gael and all the promises they made. Enda Kenny standing on a box outside Gleesons town house spouting promises about his 5 point plan and how things will be so much better with a new government.

So as I take it, there should be a HSE leaflet handed around to the people of Roscommon and what should it say??

People of Roscommon, could you please refrain from having a heart attack or stroke, car crash, slip or fall, burst appendix, hit by a bus, struck by lightning or any other health emergency before 8am or after 8pm during the week and any time during the weekend.
