THE WEALTH CODE OF THE WEST–“You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, will prove the end of any nation.
You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.”
~~~ The late Dr. Adrian Rogers , 1931 to 2005 ~~~

THE KATELYNN STINNETT FOUNDATION RUN–Katelynn Stinnett died December 3rd 2008 from the injuries she received from a brutal beating and rape that occurred in Lexington KY. This precious child was only 2 years old. She along with her brother, lived with her father in an apartment that he shared with his roommate Brian Crabtree. Crabtree is allegedly the person that did these horrible things to Katelynn. ?Alleged? because he has not yet been tried in a court of law.
Crickett Lanham along with several other members and officers of the Steel Horse Cowgirls attended her funeral and also did Honor Guard for her. Her services were held at The River Of Life Church in Lexington KY. They never left Katy. They arrived Saturday before the viewing and did not leave until they went to the cemetery the following day. They carried her tiny casket at the cemetery…it was a hard thing to do.
They were just going to do a run in Lexington and somehow that just didn’t seem to be enough for them. Certainly not enough for Katelynn. So they decided to coordinate a national ride for child abuse awareness in Katelynn’s memory.
Recognition goes out from Crickett to the BikerOrNot website and some of the wonderful friends and volunteers that are members of that website who have answered. She has spoken on the phone, messaged, and e-mailed people from coast to coast. People whom she has never met but have the biggest hearts in the world. They are volunteering their time and skills to help put this run together. These people are top shelf.
The run will be held June 13th 2009 with a rain date of June 14th 2009. Kickstands up at 1PM sharp on the east coast. ALL monies are going to a child abuse prevention and or awareness charity. These charities are being chosen by the individual ride coordinators. This way every community that has a ride will benefit. ALL charities are being thoroughly checked by Crickett and the other ladies from the Steel Horse Cowgirls. Some coordinators have found programs that take in kids that are being abused at home, some are giving their monies to programs that go into schools and make kids aware that being hit is not supposed to happen and lets them know they have options available to them. Anything like this is the kind of thing we are trying to get the coordinators to donate to.
There is a national patch that has been designed for this ride. Crickett does not yet have a cost for the patch because she is still getting bids from various companies. If you or someone you know has any contacts in this particular area please let her know (steelhorsecowgirlcrickett@gmail.com). She would really like to find someone that could do this at cost. No one is making any money off the patches. They are going to made available at whatever it costs to have them made.
The individual coordinators are responsible for mapping out their route, determining the mileage, sponsorship if they so choose, media coverage if they so choose, and what kind of run they want to have. It does not matter if it is a poker run, scenic run etc.. The only thing that matters is that we all get out there and ride and bring child abuse awareness to the forefront.
Participation in this run is voluntary and the Steel Horse Cowgirls, sponsors and individual coordinators cannot be held responsible for any damages, liability, and/or, God forbid, accidents that may occur. EVERY coordinator needs to have a waiver for their riders to sign. Crickett will try to get you one if she can. If not please contact an attorney. If you have any questions feel free to contact Crickett at steelhorsecowgirlcrickett@gmail.com or luvhrlysnjager2@yahoo.com and Crickett will respond as quickly as possible..
Crickett would like to thank everyone for their participation and hard work in getting this together, and hopes everyone has a safe, fun ride. Crickett has generously provided a blank flyer for each individual run to use. Please e-mail her at steelhorsecowgirlcrickett@gmail.com for a copy.

PORNO INDUSTRY NEEDS BAILOUT–WASHINGTON (CNN) ? Another major American industry is asking for assistance as the global financial crisis continues: Hustler publisher Larry Flynt and Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis said Wednesday they will request that Congress allocate $5 billion for a bailout of the adult entertainment industry.
?The take here is that everyone and their mother want to be bailed out from the banks to the big three,? said Owen Moogan, spokesman for Larry Flynt. ?The porn industry has been hurt by the downturn like everyone else and they are going to ask for the $5 billion. Is it the most serious thing in the world? Is it going to make the lives of Americans better if it happens? It is not for them to determine.?Francis said in a statement that, ?the US government should actively support the adult industry’s survival and growth, just as it feels the need to support any other industry cherished by the American people.”?We should be delivering [the request] by the end of today to our congressmen and [Secretary of the Treasury Henry] Paulson asking for this $5 billion dollar bailout,? he told CNN Wednesday.
Flynt and Francis concede the industry itself is in no financial danger ? DVD sales have slipped over the past year, but Web traffic has continued to grow.But the industry leaders said the issue is a nation in need.
“People are too depressed to be sexually active,” Flynt said in the statement. “This is very unhealthy as a nation. Americans can do without cars and such but they cannot do without sex.”
“With all this economic misery and people losing all that money, sex is the farthest thing from their mind. It’s time for congress to rejuvenate the sexual appetite of America. The only way they can do this is by supporting the adult industry and doing it quickly.”
So far, there has been no congressional reaction to the request.
