View From a Mountain

I slept in the pines, and you?

This is an excellent version of a very old song. I can remember my dad strumming on his guitar, singing this song.

Ghosts on Twitter140 Mafia Games

Those of us that tweet, and I guess some that don’t -and play the TWITTER 140 games – are aware of  “ghost” accounts or abandoned accts. I’m taking notes of the ghost accounts I discover so you can use them too. The ones I list pay $70,000 per hit. I’ll tell you about the ones that give NOTHING! too.

listed below are ghost accounts I find in TWITTER 140 Mafia Game, and I’m at lvl 48

Mafia players feel free to coment on your game.

NOTE:  you must have a twitter account to play TWITTER 140 Mafia Games

NOTE: CAUTION: HIGHLY ADDICTIVE AND QUITE POSSIBLE YOU MAY MAKE A FRIEND WHILE IN THE TWITTER 140 MAFIA GAMES

NOTE: I am not getting these from the 140 booster toolbar,and don’t know if any of these are used when playing via 140 booster bar

All the ghost accounts listed below are between lvl 48 – 52 and they have very few weapons. So if you are are a much lower level, FIGHT THEM ANYWAY! You SHOULD get some xp points out of them if you are a lower level and $70.000! If you are close to a lvl

To fight the following ghosts, add this before each name:

LEVEL 52 UPDATED FEB 7

I’m about 70 exp points from being at level 52, so we’ll call it as such. Most ghosts I used in lvl 48 are still showing up at lvl 52, but here are a few additional ghosts in the TWITTER Mafia games.

I’m tired by Robert A. Hall

I would LOVE to meet this man! Except for a few minor diff’s[sex, age, and I didn't serve in Vietnam] he could be ME! A dear friend in Canada sent the following to me. You can find Robert A. Hall’s I AM TIRED declaration in Wikipedia.
GOD BLESS YOU SIR AND THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE FOR MY COUNTRY.

I’m tired by Robert A. Hall

I’m 63. Except for one semester in college when jobs were scarce and a six-month period when I was between jobs, but job-hunting every day, I’ve worked, hard, since I was 18. Despite some health challenges, I still put in 50-hour weeks, and haven’t called in sick in seven or eight years. I make a good salary, but I didn’t inherit my job or my income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, there’s no retirement in sight, and I’m tired. Very tired.

I’m tired of being told that I have to “spread the wealth” to people who don’t have my work ethic. I’m tired of being told the government will take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give it to people too lazy to earn it.

I’m tired of being told that I have to pay more taxes to “keep people in their homes.” Sure, if they lost their jobs or got sick, I’m willing to help. But if they bought McMansions at three times the price of our paid-off, $250,000 condo, on one-third of my salary, then let the left-wing Congress-critters who passed Fannie and Freddie and the Community Reinvestment Act that created the bubble help them with their own money.

I’m tired of being told how bad America is by left-wing millionaires like Michael Moore, George Soros and Hollywood entertainers who live in luxury because of the opportunities America offers. In thirty years, if they get their way, the United States will have the economy of Zimbabwe, the freedom of the press of China, the crime and violence of Mexico, the tolerance for Christian people of Iran, and the freedom of speech of Venezuela.

I’m tired of being told that Islam is a “Religion of Peace,” when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and daughters for their family “honor”; of Muslims rioting over some slight offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren’t “believers”; of Muslims burning schools for girls; of Muslims stoning teenage rape victims to death for “adultery”; of Muslims mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur’an and Shari’a law tells them to.

I’m tired of being told that “race doesn’t matter” in the post-racial world of Obama, when it’s all that matters in affirmative action jobs, lower college admission and graduation standards for minorities (harming them the most), government contract set-asides, tolerance for the ghetto culture of violence and fatherless children that hurts minorities more than anyone, and in the appointment of U.S. Senators from Illinois.

I think it’s cool that we have a black president and that a black child is doing her homework at the desk where Lincoln wrote the Emancipation Proclamation. I just wish the black president was Condi Rice, or someone who believes more in freedom and the individual and less arrogantly of an all-knowing government.

I’m tired of a news media that thinks Bush’s fundraising and inaugural expenses were obscene, but that think Obama’s, at triple the cost, were wonderful; that thinks Bush exercising daily was a waste of presidential time, but Obama exercising is a great example for the public to control weight and stress; that picked over every line of Bush’s military records, but never demanded that Kerry release his; that slammed Palin, with two years as governor, for being too inexperienced for VP, but touted Obama with three years as senator as potentially the best president ever. Wonder why people are dropping their subscriptions or switching to Fox News? Get a clue. I didn’t vote for Bush in 2000, but the media and Kerry drove me to his camp in 2004.

I’m tired of being told that out of “tolerance for other cultures” we must let Saudi Arabia use our oil money to fund mosques and madrassa Islamic schools to preach hate in America, while no American group is allowed to fund a church, synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia to teach love and tolerance.

I’m tired of being told I must lower my living standard to fight global warming, which no one is allowed to debate. My wife and I live in a two-bedroom apartment and carpool together five miles to our jobs. We also own a three-bedroom condo where our daughter and granddaughter live. Our carbon footprint is about 5% of Al Gore’s, and if you’re greener than Gore, you’re green enough.

I’m tired of being told that drug addicts have a disease, and I must help support and treat them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a giant germ rush out of a dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up their noses while they tried to fight it off? I don’t think Gay people choose to be Gay, but I damn sure think druggies chose to take drugs. And I’m tired of harassment from cool people treating me like a freak when I tell them I never tried marijuana.

I’m tired of illegal aliens being called “undocumented workers,” especially the ones who aren’t working, but are living on welfare or crime. What’s next? Calling drug dealers, “Undocumented Pharmacists”? And, no, I’m not against Hispanics. Most of them are Catholic, and it’s been a few hundred years since Catholics wanted to kill me for my religion. I’m willing to fast track for citizenship any Hispanic person, who can speak English, doesn’t have a criminal record and who is self-supporting without family on welfare, or who serves honorably for three years in our military…. Those are the citizens we need.

I’m tired of latte liberals and journalists, who would never wear the uniform of the Republic themselves, or let their entitlement-handicapped kids near a recruiting station, trashing our military. They and their kids can sit at home, never having to make split-second decisions under life and death circumstances, and bad mouth better people than themselves. Do bad things happen in war? You bet. Do our troops sometimes misbehave? Sure. Does this compare with the atrocities that were the policy of our enemies for the last fifty years and still are? Not even close. So here’s the deal. I’ll let myself be subjected to all the humiliation and abuse that was heaped on terrorists at Abu Ghraib or Gitmo, and the critics can let themselves be subject to captivity by the Muslims, who tortured and beheaded Daniel Pearl in Pakistan, or the Muslims who tortured and murdered Marine Lt. Col. William Higgins in Lebanon, or the Muslims who ran the blood-spattered Al Qaeda torture rooms our troops found in Iraq, or the Muslims who cut off the heads of schoolgirls in Indonesia, because the girls were Christian. Then we’ll compare notes. British and American soldiers are the only troops in history that civilians came to for help and handouts, instead of hiding from in fear.

I’m tired of people telling me that their party has a corner on virtue and the other party has a corner on corruption. Read the papers; bums are bipartisan. And I’m tired of people telling me we need bipartisanship. I live in Illinois, where the “Illinois Combine” of Democrats has worked to loot the public for years. Not to mention the tax cheats in Obama’s cabinet.

I’m tired of hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers and politicians of both parties talking about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes or youthful mistakes, when we all know they think their only mistake was getting caught. I’m tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich or poor.

Speaking of poor, I’m tired of hearing people with air-conditioned homes, color TVs and two cars called poor. The majority of Americans didn’t have that in 1970, but we didn’t know we were “poor”. The poverty pimps have to keep changing the definition of poor to keep the dollars flowing.

I’m real tired of people who don’t take responsibility for their lives and actions. I’m tired of hearing them blame the government, or discrimination or big whatever for their problems.

Yes, I’m damn tired. But I’m also glad to be 63. Because, mostly, I’m not going to have to see the world these people are making. I’m just sorry for my granddaughter.

Robert A. Hall is a Marine Vietnam veteran who served five terms in the Massachusetts State Senate.

Morning on Paradise Mountain

Alot of people are doing the hustle/bustle thing between 7 and 8 in the morning, but here on top of Paradise Mountain, in Gods country, we enjoy a bit more laid back type of morning. Now, doesn’t this look better than the traffic jams?

Sell My TWITTER Username?

I am known across the web as “MountainHigh” or PARADISE MOUNTAIN or MY FOUNTAIN DESIGNS or simply SANDARA
This 3 year old blog is MountainHigh.wordpress.com
My TWITTER  account is under username MountainHigh

I have a CLAIM.ID account with username as….. yep MOUNTAINHIGH!

But I have been getting emails and phone calls from a company that wants MY twitter username and account! I told her she couldn’t use it in many places cause MountainHigh is MY USERNAME! So I ask her, “Why do you want to use MountainHigh when I have claimed it on claimID?” and I mentioned several other accounts where I AM MOUNTAINHIGH. She said, “Because WE are MountainHigh fly, and WE are MountainHigh” well, that just encouraged me to stake my claim back to my forgotten user ID on Twitter!
I created the account – www.twitter.com/MountainHigh -in December 2008, just a couple short months after my father died. I also moved my website to another host in Dec ‘08, along with all the other things that go on in December, and I simply forgot all about creating this account! I have another twitter account using fountaindesigns as my username [so THATS why twitter kept giving me the error "that username has already been taken... I HAD TAKEN IT!] But now that I have been reminded of it, I took it back! Therefore, PLEASE FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER! www.twitter.com/MountainHigh

Peace on Gods Mountain

Peace on Paradise Mountain
In the quiet of the evening when the sun has gone to rest,
It’s so peaceful on my mountain
its the time that I love best.
Somewhere ov’r yon ridge
I hear a whippoorwill.
and as the wind sifts gently through the trees
all is quiet
all is still.

The vastness of this universe

and the wonder of it all
never ceases to amaze me
and makes me feel quite small.
The Master in His wondrous ways knows every star in the sky,
Yet still,
He takes the time to touch the life of someone……
as small as I
