It was only a week ago that I was pounding on the computer keys wondering why my blog, "Is Glenn Beck A Whack Job" had so many page hits. At the time it struck me that people google a name of interest because they like the person or hate them. I wondered if I wrote a piece titled, "Is Nancy Pelosi A Prostitute On The Side", would it rival the hits Beck received. Well, it didn't. The point of this being, maybe the general public thinks Ms. Pelosi is already a lady of the night and it's no big deal. Afterall, she has been screwing her constituents for many years. I also suggested I might title a column, "Man impregnates Shetland pony". On second thought I don't think I want to go down that road. I've got enough problems without the general public thinking I'm a pervert. Besides, one day one of my nine grandchildren might read MJ Hawkeye. That, my friends, would be difficult to explain.
At this point in time I need my southern correspondent out of The Woodlands, Texas to jump in and provide some wit and wisdom.
I'll be on the road starting tomorrow heading back to Dublin, Ohio for the Presidents Cup golf tournament. You don't suppose the government shutdown will affect me in any way. Perhaps President Obama will close the interstate highway systems. I'm not afraid. I have Putin's cell phone number in my wallet.

One More Reason To Send Your Child To A Private School
7th Grader Suspended For Plastic Gun Key Chain The Size Of A Quarter
Continuing to demonize anything that even looks like a gun, schools continue behavioral modification for the young.
Via Daily Caller
Yet another student has landed in trouble for having something that represents a gun, but isn’t actually anything like a real gun. This time, the student is 12-year-old Joseph Lyssikatos, a student in advanced math who had perfect attendance last year. The seventh-grader made the mistake of bringing a ridiculously small, silver keychain shaped like a gun to Alan Shawn Feinstein Middle School in Coventry, R.I, reports local NBC affiliate WJAR. The two-inch keychain fell out of Lyssikatos’s backpack while he was at school. After another kid picked it up and displayed it to other students, a teacher intervened and impounded the keychain. Apparently fearing that the roughly quarter-sized hunk of cheap metal was somehow a danger to life and limb, school officials sprang into action. They suspended Lyssikatos for three days. He has also been banned from an upcoming class field trip. The boy’s parents aren’t pleased.
This & That In Minnesota
Regardless of how much I detest Ten Mile Lake for it's fishing there are some sad moments that cause reflection this time of year. I took the deck slats off the dock today. I piled them next to a ridge ten feet above the lake water. I should say, I had help pulling and stacking the slats. I gave my neighbor's daughter $10 to help me. There are only twelve slats but I promise I would have breathing like a thoroughbred after a two mile run if I'd done it myself. Pulling the lake dock in signifies the end of another year. That's sad. When we leave on Wednesday the ritual is to walk down to the shore and wave good-bye to the lake. Everyone up here does it. I guess traditions never die.
We drove into Hackensack to watch the international chainsaw championship competition but it was over for another year. We did watch the locals bid on wood carvings of bears. Bears are popular items up here especially when hanging on cabin walls or in a yard. But there were a myriad of other northwoods items a person could take home if they had $300 or more. Personally, I don't get excited about a northern pike carved out of wood. They all say the same thing; 'Welcome to the lake'. You know what they say, though. One man's trash is another man's treasure. My neighbor bought a wood carving of a bear with a stick protruding from it's paws. On the end of the stick were fake Smores and a wood carving of a fire below it. And it only cost him $275.
I didn't realize I have exactly ten fishing reels. That seems like enough. I gave one to my neighbor's girlfriend. This neighbor is twenty-years old and I've know him since he was two. If there was a calamity and his parents perished I'd adopt him in a heart beat.
Between my neighbor's home(Oh, what the heck. He's a vice-president of the Minnesota Timberwolves NBA team and a regular Joe) is a real dump of a cabin. The owner died two years ago and the place is still on the market. His kin are asking $280,000 for the place. It's worth about $28.00 but shoreline is shoreline and it's a beauty. If you've got an extra couple hundred grand and then another two hundred to tear this place down and rebuild then go for it. I can set you up with a realtor.
The leaves started turning three days ago. That's strange. I've been here in August when the trees are vivid with color. Not this year. It might have something to do with global warming depending on with whom one speaks. Personally thinking, I don't really think any of the natives up here give a wild hoot about GW.
There isn't much else to add. We only receive three television channels 'Up North' and since it's all football all day this posting gave me a nice diversion.
Thanks for reading.

Obama Lied To Us: Big Time
From Todd Starnes, Fox News:
President Obama lied to us.
It wasn’t a white lie. It wasn’t a fib. It wasn’t a half truth. It was a bold-faced lie.
“No matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise,” President Obama told the American Medical Association in 2009. “If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor. Period. If you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan. Period. No one will take it away. No matter what.”
That statement turned out to be a lie. Period

Abortionist: We Invite Moms to Hold Their Babies After Abortions
It's ghoulish, to say the least.
A recent interview with late-term abortionist Dr. Susan Robinson has drawn significant attention for some of the ways Robinson attempts to humanize the process of destroying the lives of unborn children in late-term abortions.
Although surveys show women frequently regret their abortions and face a litany of medical and mental health problems following an abortion, Robinson attempts to make women feel better about their decision in a sick and twisted sort of way. From a report on the interview:

Although surveys show women frequently regret their abortions and face a litany of medical and mental health problems following an abortion, Robinson attempts to make women feel better about their decision in a sick and twisted sort of way. From a report on the interview:
Jia Tolentino interviewed Susan Robinson, one of only four American abortionists who openly perform third-trimester abortions. Robinson is featured in the new documentary After Tiller, which premiered in New York last weekend:
Tolentino: I was really moved and amazed by the scene where you’re writing down a baby’s name, noting the family’s request for a memory box and a viewing, showing the little ink footprints. Do families often want to engage with their baby like this after an abortion? How many people are ready to—as you say—say hello to their baby at the same time that they’re telling it goodbye.

Is Nancy Pelosi A Prostitute On The Side
On September 11, 2013 ol' MJ Hawkeye decided to get back in the game by resuming the blog site that, except for a couple of posts, had remained dormant for a year. It was my second or third post in which I did an opinion piece on Glenn Beck titled: 'Is Glenn Beck A Whack Job'? Since I published that post it is getting over 180 page views on a daily basis. Now, I cannot believe that the power of my blog is that great that people from all over the world are tuning in to see what I write. So, I have to believe that folks are googling(I'm a Bing man myself) Glenn Beck in order to find out what's up with him on a daily basis. Therefore, I've decided to run a test. As you can see at the top of the heading I've titled this post: 'Is Nancy Pelosi A Prostitute On The Side'? If Nancy Baby overtakes Beck then my assumption will be correct. If I want page views I'll have to come up with something preposterous for each post. I can do one of these: 'Man impregnates Shetland Pony'. I may not be the most popular blogger on the planet but I will have people looking at my site at least once before they throw up.
I Hate This Lake
It's time to vent. Don't think this post is directed directly at you because I need to write before the volcano inside me erupts.
We have a cabin on beautiful Ten Mile Lake in north central Minnesota. It's 5,000 acres of spring fed water. It's also a lake where the fish go on permanent vacation between May and November.
I bought a boat, a fishing boat, on August 28, 2013. I was excited. It's a nice Lund boat with a 50 HP 4 stroke motor. It has plenty of storage space and a live well that's huge. That live well is waster of space. I have caught exactly one fish bigger than my hand and my hands are about the size of the small people in the movie, The Wizard of Oz.
Larry the Garbage Man, he runs the local dump, told me to go down to Angel Island and fish in water 15' deep with floating Rapalas, chartreuse in color. Larry the Garbage Man told me he catches five, six walleye every day. "Make sure you go between 2 PM and 5 PM. That's when the fish are jumping into the boat". So, I went down there any number of times and the only thing I accomplished was to use precious gasoline. Larry the Garbage Man lies so much he has to be a Democrat.
I was in the boat two evenings ago and felt a slight tug on my line. I figured if was seaweed so I reeled in. I had caught a 3" large mouth bass. My lure was 3" in length. I'll give that bass credit for one thing. He has a lot of confidence and a damned huge ego.
Not to be outdone by Billy Bass, a few minutes later another tug yielded a Northern Pike. I pulled out my tape measure. Just as I thought. It was 6' long.
In only four days I'll be going home to Dublin, Ohio. I can hardly wait. I hate this lake.
