The State of the what????

Last nights State of the Union address, did you watch it? Political discussions aside, it always amazes me the dog and pony show that goes on with that. All the clapping and standing ovations and blah blah blah. There’s more pomp and circumstance than there is a speech. Personally? I get distracted by all that clapping and stuff. I just wonder sometimes what bozo tells them that we actually enjoy that? I mean, who is the State of the Union address for anyway, them or us? I was under the impression it was for us and I kinda wonder why we have to watch the cameras focus on who is standing, who is clapping and who is sleeping? Personally, I tuned in to see what the president had to say. Call me crazy…..

  1. This has nothing to do with your post today but you caught my attention when you were on air today talking about top professions without a degree. I was working at the time and could not listen to the entire list so I was wondering if you could give me that information or post it on your blog. Thanks

  2. Hi there! Here is the information about some high-paying jobs that don't require a college degree:

    What do Microsoft founder Bill Gates and entertainment mogul David Geffen have in common? Huge bank accounts and NO college degree. In this day and age, the idea that a college degree guarantees a high-paying and rewarding job is quickly fading. A four-year degree definitely has it’s benefits in the business world, but it’s not the only path to a successful career. Here are a few of the top-paying jobs that DO NOT require a four-year degree and their average salaries. Air Traffic Controller, $100,000 Funeral Director, $80,000 Operations Manager, $78,000. Industrial Production Manager,$73,000.
    Transportation Manager $72,000. Computer technical support specialist, $68,000.
    Nuclear Power Reactor operator, $64,000.

    And HERE are the fastest growing occupations that don’t require a bachelor’s degree. Health technology, plumbing, firefighting and automotive repair.
