Day One-Ninety-Two - Part 2 - An Unavoidable Rant

I know that I have already posted a blog for today but I saw something on Facebook a few minutes ago that is forcing me to speak out.....

So, this afternoon on the Glacier National Park Facebook page, the park requested help from civilians in finding two hikers who had gone missing inside the park.  Many people responded with prayers and hopeful thoughts others responded by criticizing the park for not having plentiful cell phone towers like they have in... (are you ready for this????) New Jersey.  Yes, that is right, people actually responded to criticize a national park located in the wilderness of Montana that covers 16,000 square miles and includes two mountain ranges and 130 named lakes saying that the park is to blame because they don't have cell phone towers.

I'm livid!  Perhaps Karen Rome of New Jersey is simply a moron who doesn't realize that National Parks are just that, "National Parks".  They are funded through your tax dollars, user fees and donations.  I don't know, maybe we could take some of that Obamacare money and slip it into the National Parks budget for use in building cell phone towers in remote areas so that grown men who don't have the sense to hike responsibly can be found when they get lost.  Because God knows we need to save all of the idiots who are incapable of taking any personal responsibility for themselves that we can.

If you decide to go hiking in a wilderness area in the extreme northern US during the fall while there is questionable weather in the forecast, you must also assume responsibility for yourself.  Perhaps these men knew the chance they were taking and took it anyway.  I don't know.  It is entirely possible that the crazy woman from NJ, Karen Rome, who feels that the parks system should be spending tax dollars to install cell phone towers and her moronic followers have nothing to do with the two missing men.  But for anyone to believe that tax dollars or park fees should be used to install cell phone towers in order to protect people who take a known risk is ignorant.  Maybe this woman, Karen Rome of New Jersey, is willing to make a donation to foot the bill.  But that would present a new problem.

There is no doubt that cell phone towers would improve the scenic views in our National Parks.  I mean, who doesn't want to got to Yellowstone or Yosemite and view the cell phone towers?  I know that is all I hope to see when I go to a place like that.  Part of the goal of the National Park system, Karen Rome, is to preserve these areas of wilderness so that there are not a lot of man made structures in those areas.  If you are not willing to risk being out of cell range, then you need to stay in New Jersey, Karen Rome.  We don't want you to come west.  Most of America would prefer that you never leave your home state.  What I am saying is America is much better off if the idiots are all contained.

Maybe what we need to do is take one state, like I don't know....  maybe.... New Jersey and put all of the idiots there.  They could have as many cell phone towers as they wanted to build.  There could be a cell phone tower on every corner.  We could also put about 99% of the lawyers in New Jersey with them making it easier for all of them to sue one another over stupid crap.  Then we could all sit back and relax knowing that only the fittest are surviving out here in the rest of the US.  The gene pool out here in the "wilderness" known as Non-Jersey would immediately improve with the idiots all being either contained in New Jersey or killing themselves off since there would be no one out here interested in taking the sharp objects away from them.  The world would be a better place if all the Karen Rome's of this world were contained to one area.

Personally, I have nothing against New Jersey.  Karen Rome is the one who brought up New Jersey.  She threw it out there.  I'm just trying to make a suggestion that she might like.  In fact, I know a number of sane, hard working completely logical people from New Jersey.  But since Karen wants all of her world to have as many cell phone towers as NJ does, I'm just thinking that she would probably be more comfortable staying in New Jersey where she will never be out of cell phone range.  Karen Rome, what I am trying to tell you is that you are an idiot.  Please stay home where you belong.  We don't need you out here in the real world.

I have to go get a glass of wine and try to calm down now.  If you know Karen Rome of New Jersey, you are welcome to forward this to her.
