May 19th- Ain't No Rest For The Wicked

First, I would like to apologize for not updating in a while. Internet was down due to not being paid until this past Monday. Then, I was spending most of my time getting free games and music so that when (not if) the internet goes out again, I'll have things to occupy my time until it comes back. I say when because I know it will go out again since Charter is such a piece of crap it goes out every week it seems. Honestly, I am getting fed up with that. I don't like the idea of paying for something I can't use more than I can. Of course, the internet here is under my ex-uncle in-law, Leonie Aucoin's, name and he doesn't care much for the internet enough to do anything about it or switch providers, so there is not much I can do except to just go along with what he chooses. He even told me he is thinking about just dropping the internet and phone next month, so I may be having to go without for good. He says he may keep it, but he really does not want to since it is costing him too much money.
This brings me to the topic of my discussion today. We're supposed to be living in a "free" country. We're supposed to have certain "freedoms". Notice I said "supposed to" in each of those statements. I have come to learn in my 30 years of life, freedom is not free and nothing in this world is free. Freedom of speech only goes as far as what the government allows you to say. If you go against what they want you to say, you're labeled as a terrorist and stripped of your freedom of speech right. Freedom of religion only goes so far as agreeing with the government's religion. An example of this was the one man who hosted a Koran bible burning. Our government refused to step in, but let someone host a King James bible book burning, and I bet 10 to 1 the government will not allow that to happen. Why? Because the government believes in the King James bible and to against their belief would land you as a terrorist. Free? What is free? Nothing in this world is 100% free. Offers you see online claiming to be 100% free ask you to accept so many offers from sponsors before you get the 100% free from them. Catch is, all the offers require payment. The TV shows ads for "free" online games such as Star Wars and Jump Start. You go to play them and they are free........... to a certain extent. Once you reach a certain level or complete so many games, you have to pay to keep playing. Beware the word "free". Nothing is just given to you without some catch that requires you to poke out cash from your pocket.
I leave you all now with the words from Cage the Elephant, "There ain't no rest for the wicked." Crime is at an all time high just because people are having to resort to crime just to make it in this damn country and maybe the whole world for that matter. Take care and be safe always everyone.
