Gotta Love Montana Parents

I got to my office, at McDonald's on Idaho St., Kalispell, Montana, originally braving, what looked like a nasty wind and cold, but bundled up, mittens, knit hat, knit scarf that everyone love . . . simple Christmas colors, and just a plain scarf, about three compliments a day, on average, intending to go to the Granite Peak Grill, to visit friends and get another great breakfast, of homemade jelly, Dan't bacon, eggs, hash browns, and of course, Diet Coke, that I do without, only when I don't have money!  But, I got to the golden arches, about 6 a.m., and there was this handsome young dad, and I thought, there can't be kids up this early playing in the colorful tube, that my grand kids would have to be buried in, if I had to climb up the snake, and rescue them, if they were too chicken shit to come down on their own, but there, absolutely were kids, a smart mother--who was probably ready for a break, after watching the kids all week, who was sitting there letting dad, do what dads do best, let their true natures come out, and get in there and play with the kids!

I thought, now that is a family that gets down on it, starting their day off with a roar, three little kids, as I could see, as they stopped to take a bite or two in between playing, remember, parents, a kids play is their work, with the dad, totally in charge of the kids, calling the kids down to eat.  One cute little boy, came down the tube, himself, although, I know, dad couldn't just stand there and let the kids play, he was hanging on bars, and disappeared a time or two, but at this moment, he told the kid to come eat.  Dad told the little boy, to come and eat . . . cute as a button, this little boy, of about 3, said, But I want to pay.  I am sure that this was a novelty for the kids, and the bright dad, just said, OK.  But, the older son, didn't sit with the family, wanting to get the most out of the play breakfast, and he was eating on the run, the rest of the family was sitting on one table.  Dad told him to come over and join the family, and remarked, the workers didn't need one more table to clean.  How refreshing it that.  Rather than letting the kid, who didn't complain, knowing dad, was boss, immediately came, sit on another table, with just me and another adult, who like the Playplace, it is more fun to hang out in, and has huge windows, that I like watching the sun come up, or see the storms blow in, getting the feeling of being outside . . . but the helicopter parents, which there doesn't seem to be too many of them in this state, luckily, raising little princesses and princes, who see that the workers are their to serve their little darlings, letting them scream, disturb others, mess at will, and cry when they have to leave, basically raising bratz!  

As quickly as they came, they left, off running for the day!  The last time I was here, another awesome mother, on her own, dad may have been working, but she had two equally, over all, well behaved sons, about 8 and 10, maybe . . . but at one point, they got loud and rambunctious, which is just being boys, but she must have thought that they crossed a line, and she called them over to the table, without any fuss, and told them nicely, that other people didn't want to hear them, and they were annoying others, and they needed to pack up their shit, and leave, they did so without one word of complaint!  I always try to compliment parents, who are not friends, to their children, but actually parents, training them to be cool teens and adults, that people can actually stand to be around!  We need to return, call me Retro Mom, to bringing up responsible citizens, who know that serving others is where true happiness comes from, not, being served and asking like spoiled monsters!  The family, truly is the rock bed of society, where children learn to abide by the laws, the rules of society, and how to be great fellowmen and women, raising kids, the way their parents, if good, raised them.  And if they had bad parents, emulate someone else's parents!  THANK YOU GOOD PARENTS, WE ALL BENEFIT FROM YOUR EFFORTS!

Term Limited Legislators vs. The Kings & Queens of the Legislatures Without Term Limits . . . Humility Reigns in the First Group!

Last week, after the Republicans, kicked the Democrats asses, in the elections, and got a bit carried away with the power of it all, the Republicans gathered in a caucus meeting at a hotel in Helena, to discuss strategies for the upcoming 2015 legislative session, just getting a head start . . . whooops, violated Montana's open meetings, sunshine, and transparency laws, and got a licking of their own by a few attorneys, in town, who complained, and brought the meeting to the attention of the press.  I also had fun commenting on their actions, so not something that was not widely published and seen by many, especially in Montana, and from my blog, beyond the state's borders.  But, I like to point out the good and bad, that I see, and there was an article in the newspaper, either yesterday of the day before, and I should have saved in, but was in a hurry, because, like the parents, in Montana, the Republican caucus, was equally as refreshing, without attitude, or excuse, many being termed out after just a few sessions, with sessions only meeting every other year, for 90 days, totally took responsibility, and said, they were unaware of the fact that they had violated the open meetings laws, thinking that because they were meeting at a hotel, off the Capitol grounds, they didn't need to go public with the meeting.

The article, seemed, to me, to be a sincere and authentic statement, made by, not lawyers, who may have been in the group, but not all of them, are well informed on fair political practices, or sunshine laws, because they practice in other areas of the law, and may, not know the hair-splitting, definitive statutes, that say, a government attorney, such as myself, before I let the attorney generals office and turned public enemy number one to the government, the legislature, and previous, colleagues and friends, cops, attorneys, and former prosecutors who now make up the ranks and files of the judges in the state of Utah . . . but, there seemed to be a real, or a great mask, honest apology to the people who had elected them to represent them in the legislature and to act in transparency and in fairness, to both parties, making up the general population in the state.  Once again, my love affair with Montana grows daily.

UTAH!

The long time, alleged Kings and Queens, self anointed that is, of the Utah Legislature, and I swear, I will never get over the selfishness, the arrogance, and the frivolous waste of tax payers' money, when the attorneys, who worked all year, with offices in the state Capitol building, were kicked out of their offices, myself included, having had two offices, over looking the Salt Lake Valley, were run out so the, legislators, who worked 45 days each year, and a few special sessions, called by Governor Leavitt, at the time, not only took our offices, that were so stripped down, definitely government issue furniture, shockingly old and basic, but really what servants of the people and tax payers, should expect from the people in the government who serve them . . . but, after our mass exodus, all the assistant attorney generals, and staff, were separated and spread out all over the Salt Lake Valley, rather than close to our boss, who had her office, which I liked better than the Governor's office, taken over, and by the next election and the remodel, the Utah Attorney General was in an office a third the size of the former one, and none of his generals in the building with him, after the election . . . was this a hostile take over . . . if you attorneys are going to force the almighty legislators to follow the law, then, you are going to pay for it!

I could not believe the plush offices, the thick carpets, nice furniture, cherry wood, the most expensive, draperies of the finest materials . . . what the fuck?  But, I do think this was symbolic of the total nature of the legislature, that they kicked the law out of Utah, and replaced it with a Republican, Mormon version of some new aberration of the former status of the Utah Attorney Generals status, being the ones to represent and inform government agencies, including being right up there on Capitol Hill, during the session, making it easy to follow the session, giving easy access to legislators and their staff, basically, who's who, in Utah, battling it out, over laws, that will govern for a fucking long time, with the legislators, recognizing before, that those good old, cigar smoking Democrats, those representatives of labor and unions, were a viable part of the make up of the state, the flavor, making the majority fight tooth and nail, to over-power the charisma of some of the oldies, but goodies, that kept the Utah legislature honest!  The old guard dies out, and Karen Mayne,  stepping in to fill dad's shoes, tries to hold down the fort her father set up, but guys like Michael Waddoups, gets the male contingency to take her out of committees like the powerful Labor Committee, so they can have a purely party line . . . cleansing or vilifying the positions with the inner circle of power-mongers!  Luckily for that stunt, Waddoups, President of the Senate, got unfriended, and taken out!  The federal bench should do the same thing to his brother, who fucked me over on the Brock case!
