My Daughter an Son in Law need some help
They are trying to buy a house, but they can't get the down payment together due to medical bills on top of their car note, insurance, fuel etc. Bronson my son in law, is a very good man. He is an Air Force veteran and he can get his home loan from the VA, but it is the down payment, the inspection and all the other associated costs of buying a home, while still paying the rest of his bills, including co-pays for doctors visits, prescriptions, etc.
If you can help out and spare a little, please give it a thought.

My son needs some help
He is in a school program for video editing, however none of the computers we have are able to run the editing software he is required to use by the school.
The following is the e-mail he sent me about the specifications which are the minimum requirements to run the programs he is supposed to use.
If anyone could help out with getting him a decent enough computerto run these programs properly, I would be very appreciative.
Miles is wanting to specialize in video and game production/design after he graduates come spring and he is busting his tail to try to get his assignments done. The issue is, right now he can only work on them on the schools computers AFTER school. And there have been several times I've had to pick him up from school at 9:00 PM. Add in all of the other programs he is in, (FCA - Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Young Life {Christian Youth Group}, NHS {National Honor Society}) plus his school's own TV Production work) he is basically on the go from 7:15 A.M. when I drive him to school and many times, I've had to pick him up after 10:00 P.M. at night from school games, Youth Group, and other programs.
So if anyone has a desktop computer that can run the above programs properly, please let me know via e-mail: greylocke (AT) gmail (DOT) com
The following is the e-mail he sent me about the specifications which are the minimum requirements to run the programs he is supposed to use.
Many of the minimum specifications listed for the programs are shown as a baseline for running these programs, which means they will will run, but productivity will suffer. Also note that I list a few wiki/discussion pages in place of some of the programs' official pages due to the information either not being provided by the main source or being outdated (because of this though, some of the specifications the users post may be somewhat overzealous)
A lot of the screenshots cut off the information, so you will have to visit the page to get all of the information

ReasonTV - Stossel: Sweden is Not a Socialist Success
Democratic socialists in the United States point to Sweden as a socialist success. But Swedish historian Johan Norberg says, "Sweden is not socialist."
Norberg hosts a documentary called Sweden: Lessons for America?, in which he notes that in Sweden, "government doesn't own the means of production. To see that you have to go to Venezuela or Cuba or North Korea."
John Stossel asks Norberg why so many Americans think Sweden is socialist. Norberg answers, "We did have a period in the 1970s and 1980s when we had something that resembled socialism: a big government that taxed and spent heavily."
But big government led to problems. "Our economy was in crisis, inflation reached 10 percent, and for a brief period interest rates soared to 500 percent. At that point the Swedish population just said, 'Enough, we can't do this,'" Norberg says.
Sweden cut public spending, privatized the national rail network, abolished certain government monopolies, eliminated inheritance taxes, sold state-owned businesses, and switched to a school voucher system. It also "lowered taxes and reformed the pension system," adds Norberg.
So Stossel asks why we keep hearing "that Sweden is this socialist paradise."
Norberg answers: "We do have a bigger welfare state than the U.S. and higher taxes than the U.S. But in other areas, when it comes to free markets, when it comes to competition, when it comes to free trade, Sweden is actually more free market."
He's right, according to the Heritage Foundation's Economic Freedom Rankings. Sweden ranks higher than the U.S.
Norberg also tells Stossel that Sweden's tax system may surprise Americans. "This is the dirty little secret....We don't take from the rich and give to the poor. We squeeze the poor, because rich people might leave."
Even people who earn below average income pay up to 60 percent in taxes.
Stossel asks: What lessons should Americans take from Sweden?
"You can't turn your backs [on] the creation of wealth," warns Norberg.
Sweden: Lessons for America? airs on PBS on October 29th at 7 p.m. Eastern. You can also watch it at freetochoose.tv.
The views expressed in this video are solely those of John Stossel; his independent production company, Stossel Productions; and the people he interviews. The claims and opinions set forth in the video and accompanying text are not necessarily those of Reason.

Are Smartphones Recording Everything We Do?
This is why I uninstall apps such as Facebook.
I have actually had ads targeted to me pop up on FB after texting a friend about something. Just ANOTHER reason, I am no longer on FB.

Well that sucks
I was driving home last night after picking up my son Miles aka Sprog #6, when we hit what I thought was a chuck of concrete in the highway. It flattened both passenger side tires on the minivan and I didn't find out until today it also destroyed the rim on the passenger side front wheel.
Grand Total for 2 new tires and a steel replacement rim, $239.17 plus I had to fill my daughters truck for driving me around to take care of all this.
Meanwhile the power converter on my trailer let out all it's magic smoke, and I'm still having to tether my cell phone to get internet.
CRUD!!!
I hate to keep asking but if you can spare some money, I could really use the help.
My daughter still has a page on Go Fund Me for us: Fundraiser for Mark Anderson by Mary Louise Anderson : Help for Anderson Family
And you can always send me money through PayPal; paypal.me/greylocke
Just when I start to get ahead, something happens and screws me up all over again.

Truck was NOT submerged after Hurricane Harvey, it does however not idle correctly after it warms up, and I'm tired of messing with it and replacing parts. All Harvey did was to break the drivers side headlight lens. I've got video of my boys and I driving the truck after Harvey while we examined the devastation.
Here is 30 minutes of me and 3 of my sons driving through the aftermath of our county after Hurricane Harvey in the Dakota.
The truck starts and runs fine but when it warms up it doesn't idle right. I'm tired of replacing parts, so I'm selling it.
