Trailer Parks

London has trailer parks! Can I just tell you how funny that was to me? Hilarious! Now of course they call them a much more refined name; Caravan parks. They are nicer than your run of the Easley trailer parks. Apparently they are summer homes for retirees. But say what you want, call it what you want, a trailer park is a trailer park is a trailer park. I knew that I would be just fine when I saw that on the drive from the airport. If I can get a picture of one I will of course faithfully post it. London trailer parks! I wonder if they wear mu mus here too!

Dinner Rolls to die for

A 62 year old man in Michigan was killed after arguing with his daughter over dinner rolls. The man was stabbed to death. A gun was also used durring the argument. The police later found the daughter hiding behind the house... Genius... and consider her a suspect.

Now I have had some really amazing food in my life. There have even been a few that might make me stab you in the hand if you reached for mine. But I doubt that there will ever come a dinner roll that I would kill for. I mean really? I can see it now, it was probably some of those rolls that everyone buys at Thanksgiving. You know the ones I am talking about. They are all one big attached sheet pan of white rolls with the lines cut into the tops of them. they brown up nice but they will be bricks if you leave them in one minute too long. But they are good for soppin up some gravy. Yeah, you know which ones I mean. I like those things, in their own place, but I'll be damned if I am stabbing anyone to get'em.

The whole crowd? Really?

I never knew you could eject a crowd from a game. Not someone in the crowd, the WHOLE crowd. An Umpire, Don Briggs, said that the entire crowd at a high school baseball game was too unruly to remain at the game... and ejected ALL of them. He also called the cops as a precaution. The school superintendent and the officer saw no unruly behavior, and the game resumed after a 40 minute delay. The Ump didn't even have an issue with any of the players, merely the entire crowd.

And now for the moment with Captaiiiiinnnnn Oooooobvious...

The Superintendent said that he just thought that the Ump over-reacted.

Your moment with Captain Obvious was brought to you by Umpire Don Briggs.

Warning:

I just want to warn all of my readers that for the month of July this post will be more dear diary than ode to randomness. I won't be boring you with tiny details, but I will be chronicling my trip to London and other European hot spots as I visit them, both with pictures and comments. So if you are not interested, please check back in August. All will be back to normal (sadly) then. Otherwise stay tuned,the Adventures of Ms. Red in London will begin soon! I sure hope Europe's ready for me!!!

I miss your snarky ways....

Please feel free to comment and mock the things you read here on my blog. I look forward to it! I need it! I miss it when it's gone, I.... well let's just say it gets lonely here in blogosphere, if no one else but me has anything to say. I talk to myself all the time. It's nice to hear from someone other than the voices in my head! So comment, call, email, or otherwise harangue me for my words. It brings meaning and light into my life. Oh and... tell you friends :D

News from Captain Obvious...

Can't you just hear the announcer's voice say that?

"And now for news from Captaaaaaiiiin OOOOObvious...."

I think that since we have sections in my blog for News from the World of Stupid,and many Episodes of Good Idea, Bad Idea it is time to add a new classification of "news."

So I now bring to you the first episode of News from Captaaaaaiiiiinnn OOOOObvious...

Mia Washington gave birth to twin boys almost a year ago. It was wonderful, until she noticed that the older the boys got, the more different they looked. Most people would just assume it was a freak genetic thing and go on about life. Mia went and got a DNA test. Why you ask? Well she knew she did the naughty with someone other than her "baby daddy" So it Seems like what had happened was...
She had slept wif two different mens at the same time and got pregnant by both of them... at the same time.
There is a happy ending. The father of one of the twins says he has forgiven Mia and will raise the other boy as his own. Awww yay.... but wait... Mia would like to offer everyone some sage advice...

"I'm trying to let everybody else know: Don't put yourself in my shoes, because it can hurt and it does hurt, but you still have to go on with life"

Well Thank you Captain Obvious.... getting pregnant by two men at the same time... bad idea. Who knew?

This concludes your first episode of News from Captaaaaaiiiiinnnnn OOOOObvious....

Another episode of Good Idea, Bad Idea

Good Idea... Wanting to marry for love. Bad Idea.... Cutting off your own penis when denied marrying for love. I think I finally understand that phrase my mom always used to say. "You're cutting off your nose to spite your face." I get it now. I feel bad for the guy. He tried unsuccessfully to get his parents to allow him to marry the woman he loved. She was in a much lower class than him and the parents wouldn't allow it. So rather than marry someone his parents arranged for him, he made himself damaged goods. But really? I don't care how much I love someone, I am not damaging my goods!
This concludes another episode of Good Idea, Bad Idea.

Speaking of stupid parents...see next post first...

One boy was killed and another one was in critical condition after being struck by lightning. The boys were playing in a little league game when severe thunderstorms rolled in. The game was cancelled, AND EVERYONE WAS ORDERED OFF THE FIELD. The storms were knocking out power and causing floods. These two boys parents decided that they knew better and allowed the boys to remain on the field playing catch. They learned quick that staying on a field during thunderstorms, is a BAD idea. I almost want to ask, what kind of idiot lets their kid play in a thunderstorm, but I already know. The thing is these parents probably won't understand that it was their fault the boy died. They will think that it was just a freak accident. That it was God's will. It was just a terrible tragedy. No you are just a dumb ass. This is why some people should not reproduce.

Too stupid to have children

Now, I believe that there are people who really are too stupid to have children. And I am sure that you know the people I am talking about. I am not convinced that this woman is one of those. I am not saying that she's not, just that I am not convinced that she is.

Rachel's IQ is 71. The average person is usually between 90-109. Now, I know that there are people with Downs, that can and have been taught, not only to be self sufficient, but to care for offspring. The British courts have ruled that Rachel can not care for her child. Now the social workers are saying she was not really around when her child was in the hospital because the baby was born 13 weeks premature. Basically they say that she abandoned the child and that she doesn't truly understand the gravity of the situation.This is a factor that I am not going into. According to the article, there is an awful lot of he said she said.

Here's the thing. If a parent proves that they can't take care of the child then the child should be removed. This woman has not even been given the opportunity but deemed unfit due to stupidity. The child is now a toddler and Rachel gets to see her for 90 minutes a month under highly supervised visits. When the child is adopted she will not be able to see the child at all. I think it is a bit presumptuous of the court to rule on someone who has never been allowed the chance to care for her child.

I will comment that on first glance, keeping stupid parents from their children seems an interesting idea. I think however if the courts were to truly rule whether a parent was too stupid to have kids, half the US would not have parental rights. I think it might be a better option to rule someone too stupid to have kids in the first place. Then we could solve the overpopulation issue and the breeding of stupid people (see Idiocracy) all in one foul swoop. Test them when they get close to the years where they could begin to reproduce. If they are too stupid then have them fixed. (Please have your pets and your stupid friends, spayed or neutered.)

I just want to say...

I love my new camera!!! No this is not important, pressing or even interesting news. But since this is my blog I can do what I like! So... I love my new camera. I was on the back row in the Charlotte Verizon Wireless amphitheater, right before the grass starts, when I snapped this pic. Not bad if I say so myself. And I do say so myself.

I would like to draw your attention to Gwen's abs. She is pushing fourty and looks like she's twenty. I hate her.... or at least I would if I didn't like her so much.

It's furniture for black people and white people...

This commercial is hysterical, and it actually is the TV ad for the store. The Red House Furniture place has furniture for black and whites alike. Who said we couldn't all just get along? Wacky Furniture Ad Becomes Web Sensation - AOL Small Business

Not grits, but close

Every girl who grew up in the south knows that you should keep a pot of grits on the stove to keep a man in line. If she dumps the grits on you it's like napalm. It won't come off and burns to the bone. At least this is what I have been told. Wanda Bray didn't throw Grits she threw chili. Three men broke into her home and as they did she threw things at them including a bowl of Chili to ward them off. They finally left when she took the broom to them. The men were arrested shortly after that. Maybe next time she'll keep grits on the stove just in case.

Virgins for Sale!!

A girl from Romania, who was going to school in Germany, decided to sell her virginity. Might as well make it profitable. So she posted an add on the Internet and sold her virginity to an Italian business man for 14,000 dollars. She flew to Italy and gave it up. It seems that now Germany wants her to give it up again. Germany has legalized prostitution. They are claiming that since she was in Germany when the transaction was agreed upon, it was prostitution and she should be required to pay taxes on it. Up to half the 14,000 in taxes. I always knew we were Ho's for the biggest pimp, the government, Germany just put a voice to it.

Now we know why Red Bull gives you wings

It's got cocaine in it. I guess the makers of Red Bull are taking old lessons from Coca Cola and putting them to use. Germany has banned the Red Bull Cola in many areas and is considering a nationwide ban of the drink. Red Bull says that there is no danger because they use the "de-cocainized leaves." Oh, Ok. That makes it all better.

All in all I think it's all quite silly. The other crap that is in sodas is toxic. And if you really want to get down to it, the smallest dose of caffiene in pure form is lethal.

But if you want to continue drinking Red Bull or other "energy drinks" as I will admit I do on occasion, you might want to see this next product. It's called Drank. It's to slow you down at the end of the day. It's got melatonin, valerian root, and rose hips. I think that, in high doses, valerian root can kill. Americans have been known to drink soda in extremely high doses.

So first you drink Red Bull to get going and then you drink Drank, to slow down. It all begins to sound like some bad rocker biography, or a Marilyn Monroe documentary. Cocaine or uppers to get through the day. Sleeping pills, alcohol or heroine to sleep...

"I'm going to Disney World"

It seemed for many years that inevitably after every Super Bowl there would be commercials that went something like this...

Reporter: "You just won the Super Bowl. What are you going to do now?"

Player of Winning Team: "I'm going to Disney World!"

This would then be followed by whatever promotional deal Disney was running.

I don't know if they still do that... I quit watching the Super Bowl as soon as the game ends (well unless it's Green Bay). But I couldn't help hearing that stupid commercial in my head when I read about the woman and daughter that were "kidnapped."

A couple days ago it was reported that a woman and her daughter were missing and that it could be a kidnapping. The mother frantically called 911 from the trunk the kidnappers Cadillac. The requisite two black men had car-jacked them and taken them hostage. Her daughter was in the trunk of the car with her.

What really happened was this: The woman parked the Caddi, called 911 twice and then she and the girl flew to Disney Land.

Really? That's your great escape plan? Disney? Disney who probably has more cameras on you than the government does? And do you really think that an over grown mouse, a big dog like thing aptly named Goofy, and a duck with a nasty temper are going to hide you? I'm pretty sure that even though it says Disney Land, it's not really it's own land. There isn't even a need for the mouse to extradite you. The cops can just come in and get you.

Suicidal man pushed off the bridge

A man who had held up traffic on a bridge in Beijing was pushed today. Chen Fuchao was up to his yen in debt and thought he might end it all by jumping off a bridge. The Police cordoned off the area, set up an inflatable catchy thingy and then waited. After several hours Lai Jiansheng, a passerby, asked to try and talk the man down, but he was turned down. So he went up to the bridge and snuck through the blockade. He walked right up to Chen, shook his hand and then shoved him off. Chen landed in the partially inflated emergency catchy thing while Lai smiled and saluted as he fell. Chen injured his elbow and his spine. Lai was arrested. I just think this is funny, it's like Lethal Weapon for real. Now, Lai has some sort of mental disorder, but I have to say he was right on the money here. There was something to catch the guy. The guy had held up traffic for five hours. Lai thought Chen was being selfish. Seems about right to me. And trust me it is selfish, I can speak with authority on that. So I just think that all's well that ends well. No one died. I doubt Chen will try to off himself again. Traffic was restored to normal. And the police could go about doing something more useful. Why go about arresting Lai? Does this mean I am twisted? IF it does then oh freakin' well.

Spring and Summer Veggies

One of the things I love most about the warm weather season... other than not having to be cold.... is the veggies. I love fresh veggies. Those who know me well know I was a vegetarian for a couple years. I prefer to eat vegetarian most of the time. So when summer comes around and I am able to go down the street and get local grown veggies at the Farmers market I am super happy. I grill them, bake them, saute them, skewer them, you name it. Hopefully in the next year or two I will be able to grow my own.

Well, a man in Berlin apparently loved his veggies too, particularly white Asparagus. He beat a 24 year old woman who was selling them. He claimed the price she was charging was outrageous and then beat her up. Any sane person would have just gone to another place to get them. But what do I know? White asparagus that is not grown in green houses is very seasonal. It has a short harvest time, similar to Vidalia onions. You just can't get them year round. I understand the love of the stinky pee vegetable. I will pick that stuff up and eat it with my fingers. A little salt, pepper, garlic, olive oil and a grill make Asparagus a fabulous enjoyment for me. I will not beat someone up cause I don't want to pay the high prices. Capitalism hasn't apparently fully caught on over there in Berlin. Communism doesn't make you have to take what they give you anymore. Go somewhere else. Don't beat a poor girl up for trying to make a buck.

It has been too long

I have been a very bad blogger. It has been almost two weeks I think, since my last blog. It's not even for lack of stuff to blog about. I have plenty, just you wait Henry Higgins. I think that I have just been enjoying the time off from school. Actually having one whole day a week that I am not working or at school or both, has been uber great. I only had maybe five days the entire semester where I didn't have to be anywhere but on my couch. And usually those days I still had school work to do. So I am remembering what it is like to have time to do nothing at all. It is amazingly easy to accomplish nothing at all in a day. I know that I can be a very successful nothing accomplisher for about a week or so, then I get bored. There's yard work and cleaning and visiting.... And I am a bit of a work-aholic. I am still working full time, and picking up shifts on my days off. And Thursday night is Trivia night... Yeah... Vacation is as close to retiring as I will ever get. I haven't even got my first bachelor degree and I am already contemplating how to go about getting a second one, all the while, trying to get out of the restaurant business. It's good for temporary... but I can't do this crap forever.
Well this was supposed to be a quick note that said "bad Blogger Ms Red... new posts coming soon" Guess I should not blog at two in the morning. Whenever I do you get way more than you asked for, and none of which you care about.
So here is that note I meant to write.
Bad Ms. Red for not blogging.... posts coming soon to a computer screen near you.

Everything that is wrong with Muslim society

A judge speaking at a domestic violence conference said that if a woman spends lavishly on their Aybara, the coverings women are forced to wear, and the husband slaps her for it then she deserved it. So is this to make people aware that domestic abuse is a bad thing or is it a conference of people who believe domestic violence should be perpetuated? Of course this happened in Saudi Arabia. And we wonder why terrorists come out of the middle east? When you teach violence as a way of life, bad things happen. A society where mothers and daughters are nothing but property and punching bags is a breeding ground for testosterone filled rage. The balance is tipped too far to one side. Saudi Judge Slap Wives

It's raining moose...

A 500 pound moose fell from the sky in Clinton, Maine. A motorist on Hinkley road saw the poor beast falling after it jumped a gaurd rail on an overpass on I-95. If it had landed on the car and the motorist actually survived, does insurance cover falling Moose? Moose Fell Out of Sky

Last meal

If you knew you were going to jail for a very long time, what would you pick for your last meal? Jermaine Cooper of Fort Wayne, Indiana decided it would be a burrito from Taco Bell. After leading police on a chase of 90 mph he suddenly pulled in to a Taco Bell parking lot to get one last burrito before he was arrested. Stupid criminals never cease to amaze me. The cops are right on your tail in a high speed chase, do you really think that you are going to have time to buy a burrito, much less eat one? I am pretty sure even the drive through couldn't help you there. What do you say? "I am sorry I drove off, and I know I am going to jail. Could I please eat one burrito before I go?" Really? I am pretty sure that you have thoroughly pissed off the cops for making them chase you. They know you are a coke dealer. Really?

If I knew I was gonna be eating prisoner prepared food for a while, Taco Hell would not be my choice for a last meal. Oh sure, I eat there every once and a while I admit. I like the Crunch Wrap Supreme, with all it's cheesy crunchy billions of calories and fat. But, if it was the last thing I am going to have, I think I would have stopped at a steak house and hoped the cops joined me for one last filet and baked potato before I went. Or at least some down home Mac and cheese and green beans and a big slab of chocolate or red velvet cake... something. I just know that Taco Hell would not be where I would decide to end the chase. What would you eat for your last meal?

More news from Hookerland

I am enjoying the stories that have come out of Hookerland lately. In Amsterdam's Red Light District, a huge tourist attraction, old brothels are being bought by the city and used for art shows. You can now get laid and increase your cultural knowledge all at one time... all while high. The city is attempting to revitalize the city by limiting the number of brothels and coffee shops selling weed. So now you go to an art show, get all worked up, get high and then get your socks rocked. Sounds like a pretty succesful evening to me. Maybe if they throw in a wine and cheese tasting it would be the perfect night, What do you think?Amsterdam's Red Light Rooms Become Art Studios

Queens= Trailer Park

A woman in New York, one Sandrina Purdum, has filed a lawsuit against one of the women she invited to her wedding. Why you ask? Seems like what had happened was the woman, one Jennifer Angevine, what is being sued cussed out the bride for ruining her relationship a.k.a. affair with the husband. Jennifer poked Sandrina in the chest with her pointy finger saying "Me and Harry were good together. You had to ruin everything by marrying him. You f- - -ed everything up," This accusation caused such a disturbance that 70 guests were ordered to leave. The bride and groom spent their wedding night apart and are trying to reconcile things now. Of course the husband had no idea what Jennifer was talking about. So Sandrina is suing for slander and inflicting emotional distress and battery. I am pretty sure Jerry Springer went to a trailer park in Georgia and had a very similar show.

American News Non-Partisan... Really?

This next article I found was interesting only in one spot. It is an article about a UK newspaper named Evening Standard. Apparently the Newspaper took on too negative a tone in talking about a mayor who was eventually run out of office. The thing I found ironic is a paragraph about halfway down. Media World: Why the U.K.'s Evening Standard is sorry

It says and I quote: "If you take away the politics, the rest of the newspaper is pretty good," Greenslade told the Daily Finance.What may have prompted the Evening Standard to "apologize" was its role in driving London's controversial mayor Ken Livingston from office. U.S. readers should note that the tradition of journalists being objective is an American phenomena, and a fairly recent one at that. Papers in the U.K. and in other parts of the world take on avowedly partisan tones.

Apparently the author has never watched or read anything news related from America. American journalism is so biased as to be ridiculous. The media has no morals or scruples. There is no code of ethics to be followed. Political candidates live or die by the media. The article says that if you take away the politics the rest of the newspaper is pretty good. This newspaper must offer more information than the papers in the US do. I just found it hilarious that the author thought that US news was objective and non-partisan. It's completely laughable. If US media isn't making judgements, or putting their spin on news, or making or breaking someones career, then the only thing left that they do is report sports scores.
The article might as well say my blog isn't sarcastic or biased. It would be just as true as saying that American journalists are objective.

Another Episode from Good Idea, Bad Idea

Sometimes in life you come across something and you have to stop and ask "who thought that was a good idea?" I had to make a quick trip to Petsmart yesterday and I contemplated which way I would take to get there. I settled on the back roads, which although no shorter, they don't involve me driving in traffic on Wade Hampton Blvd. On my way, I decided I needed to stop and get a pack of smokes. Well I shouldn't say I "needed" the pack of smokes, but I wanted. Anyway, I grabbed a Pepsi and went to stand in line at the counter. In front of me was a short skinny brunette with a purse almost as big as she was and a boy of about 10. I hear the cashier ask the woman how much an item was. The woman said 4.99 then turned around and walked next to me pointing at a display and said "Yes, 4.99 it says right there. See? Well I looked at the item she had on the counter, and was not readily able to identify the object so I turned and looked at the display as she pointed to it. It was labeled "Manicure pen." Now you might ask yourself, what is a manicure pen exactly? Well I will tell you. It is a ballpoint pen with a toenail clipper on the top. "What?" I know I said the same thing. The woman then turns to the cashier and says in a thick southern trailer park kind of way, " I thought that was cool. I needed a toenail clipper." So the woman digs through her monster purse and eventually locates enough bills and a change purse to pay for the items and leaves. I step up and pay for my Pepsi and smokes and turn to leave. Ever so discretely I quickly snapped a picture of the "Manicure Pen" so that I could prove to you my fine readers, that it actually did exist. So here we are. Good Idea: Ball Point Pen. Bad Idea: attaching a toenail clipper on the end of said ball point pen. Sadly there was more than one Manicure Pen missing from the display so others have bought or stolen said item. Whether as a joke or for real, I could not tell. But if this woman was any indication, I dare not hold out hope that it was all as a joke.

Dollar Tree Website

Now you can shop in store or online. Seriously? First of all although I do occasionally shop at the dollar store for odds and ends, probably 80 percent of the people that shop there regularly don't have computers. Don't even pretend that you haven't been in a dollar store and know what I mean. Second of all, why in the hell would you pay a dollar for something and then pay 4 dollars to ship it? If they don't have every item on the website in one big warehouse then you'll pay that for each item. You could just go to Wal-Mart and pay two dollars for it. Half the fun and adventure of the dollar store is the actual experience, the excitement of the unknown encounters. Not that you will necessarily miss out on those same experiences at Wal-mart. But Hey, if you want to shop the Dollar Tree online, don't let me stop you.Dollar Tree launches new e-commerce web site

Patrol this is dispatch we have a robbery in progress. Suspects are two feet tall and still in diapers. Be advised they seemed to have ransacked the house, over. Dispatch this is patrol... do what?

John and Matthew Farrer, ages 2 and 3, wandered away from their home and into their neighbors. While family and emergency crews frantically searched for the two hooligans they were blissfully unaware. They went into the neighbors house while she was sleeping. They raided the pantry eating cookies and things leaving a trail of mess in their wake. The homeowner woke up just as the police saw the two leaving out the back door. One of the boys was still wearing an absconded Clemson helmet. Poor boys were too young to know not to take Clemson memorabilia, it's worthless.

Hooker coupons

The recession has been bad all over the world. Even the oldest profession in the book has felt the pangs of lost clients.

Post category: you go girl!

A seventeen year old girl was walking to school one day in California when two guys came up tried to grab her and take her money. What they didn't know was that she was a band geek. Miss Lady whipped around and punched one in the nose, kicked the other in the groin and then walloped, yes walloped them with her baton. The men have not been apprehended but I am guessing they will think twice before trying to grab anyone again. I was not a band geek, but I was (still am actually) a choir geek, and it just makes me smile in my heart to think of it. I am guessing people at her high school won't be making fun of her again.

Before the Music Dies

My dear friend Steve sent me this link quite some time ago, because he thought of me when he saw it. I have been incredibly busy with school for the last few months and only just had time to sit and watch it. If you are a music lover, then you need to see this film. It's an hour and a half and it has some ten and fifteen second commercial breaks, but it is well worth it. Please... Please check this out. It is so on point.Hulu - Before the Music Dies - Watch the full feature film now.

Brilliant

I only wish I had thought of it myself. This woman dreaded her high school reunion so much that she hired a stripper to go for her. Armed with an earpiece, fake glasses and someone with a video camera the stripper went to the reunion. Andrea Wachner watched on a monitor in a hotel room, all the while prompting the stripper what to say. Might have to save that one for my 20th reunion. I don't keep up with anyone from high school anyway. No one would ever know. Stripper High School Reunion Make sure you watch the CNN video link. It is actual footage from the reunion and the hotel room where Andrea is watching.

The 83 year-old yoga instructor

You know I just can't help but root for old people who are still rockin' it out. It just makes me all warm and fuzzy inside, and for those who know me, that is quite a feat. It's the same kind of feeling I get watching the Underdog at the Olympics who is dead last in the race and never had a shot, but finished it anyway. The Jamaican Bobsled team their first year that kind of thing. The ones that have nothing but honor and the country flag to keep them through the end of the race. Gosh... I am getting all teary just thinking about all those stories. (dramatic pause and sigh here)

Ok, back to business. 83 year-old Bette Calman, not only still does yoga at her age, but she teaches up to 11 yoga classes a week. She even says she has no thought of slowing down. I can't do what she does now at my age... might be because my center of gravity is my very large gut/butt. That and I might suffocate if I tried to curl up like that. At the very least I would definitely pull something. I think it is pretty amazing, kind of like the 72 year old that ran down the teenager who stole her purse. Work it ladies!!!

Stripper attacked with Stiletto

This story is really sad, and hilarious at the same time.

First of all the attack. A stripper on her first day on the job was attacked after coming off stage. The rival stripper repeatedly hit the new girl in the face with a stiletto. The woman had to get seven staples after the attack. I am curious to know if they gave her a tetanus shot, a rabies shot and some antibiotics. Have you ever seen what the floor of a strip club looks like?

OK, moving on. Bitches are crazy, and stripper bitches are even crazier. They are drunk or high half the time, and both the rest of the time. Now I know, I know, you're saying not all of them are like that. Some of them are really nice girls. And I am am saying, come back when you know what the heck you are talking about.

Last, (this is the sad part) the woman had taken the job because money is tight right now and she needed the extra money. Yes, money is tight for everyone right now... but at this woman's age I hope she is doing it to help support a family. The article starts out with "A 52 year-old woman was..."

Yes... 52... not a misprint. Which leads back to the whole rabies shot and antibiotic question. Because unless you look like Renee Russo at 50 (see Renee Russo Post March 26) Then I am pretty sure that at 52 you are working in a real creepy, crappy and very dimly lit place filled with drunk, toothless old men. I mean really... what makes you think that stripping at age 52 is a good idea?

But see for yourself

Just one more reason to not have kids

I didn't really need another excuse not to have kids, but this one is a doozie. I mean... suck. A 21 year old British woman developed a rare disorder after giving birth; an allergy to water. And it is water in any form. She can't drink coffee or tea because her throat will swell. She can't bathe without breaking out in a weeping rash. She can't hug someone who is crying or sweating. She can't hold her baby in case he drools on her, as babies are wont to do. I can think of a lot of allergies that suck, but I am pretty sure this one takes the cake. And it is all because she reproduced. As if child birth isn't risky enough....woman with water allergy - AOL Health

Cereal Evaluation

I went to the grocery store last night after work to pick up a few things, first and foremost being dinner. While I was there I picked up a couple things that I needed like milk, and cereal. As I am starving and walking down the cereal aisle I spot Cinnabon Cereal. For just a brief moment I turned into Homer Simpson. Ooooooo Cinnabon.... So I dropped it and some Ingles brand Frosted Mini wheats into the basket. (The Ingles brand was the only variety that did not have HFCS in it.)

So this morning I go to the cereal cabinet to get my Cinnabon cereal. I am looking forward to some cinnamony good crunchies for breakfast. I smile to myself as I pour the little cinnamon roll shaped cereal into the bowl. Add milk and get ready.... Ugh. The cereal is barely sweetened and tastes NOTHING like a Cinnabon cinnamon roll. I actually had to add sweetener to it. So should you see this very tempting name brand in the cereal aisle and think you might want to try it, let me save you the trouble. Just pass it up and grab a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

I am just disgusted by this

I read a story a few days ago from Afghanistan. I saved the article so that I could appropriately give blog time to it. It made me angry on not only a personal level, but on the broader human level. And just when I have the time to devote to the first story, yet another story pops up from Afghanistan. And it just pisses me off. At what point will we take off the blinders and leave the carrot to rot? There are some really terrible things going on in the world and we don't want to see it. The media brushes past it with barely a glance. They are much more concerned about what kind of dog Obama got, what it's name was, and whether he broke a promise to get a rescue dog. I just get sick of the media some days. Ok, most days. They want to show the coffins of the soldiers who have sacrificed their lives to try and change the very atrocities I am talking about, so that they can put a negative spin on it. It drives me batty.

Ok so here are the stories.

The first is a story of a 19 year old girl and a 21 year old boy who tried to go to Iran to elope. The couple was turned in by their parents. Villagers were sent, apprehended the couple, and took them back to their home. They were then, in a matter of days, convicted of immoral acts. After which, they were placed in front of a Taliban firing squad and shot with AK-47's. All because they were in love and tried to elope. Americans think they have it bad. Afghan Couple Executed

The next one is about ridiculous brain washing. As if the above story about parents who would rather have their children killed than elope isn't.
300 women in Afghanistan were protesting. ( I have to add here that thank God some of them are standing up for themselves. Revolution has to start with them breaking the chains on their minds first and foremost)
" The law, passed last month, says a husband can demand sex with his wife every four days unless she is ill or would be harmed by intercourse — a clause that critics say legalizes marital rape. It also regulates when and for what reasons a wife may leave her home alone."

I just want to scream , and I want to hug and support every woman who stood against this. The women who were protesting the law were stoned by 1,000 Afghans who swarmed them. The police were hard pressed to keep the two groups apart. I am surprised that the police didn't just massacre the protesters the way they run things over there. Thank God for small decencies and civil rights. Afghans Stone Women

This is what is going on in the world and we pay no attention.

Polar Bears aren't really like the Coca-Cola Bears

You may have already seen this, but I had to add my two cents to it. A woman at the Berlin Zoo in Germany decided to ignore the wall around the Polar Bear enclosure. Then the bears did what bears do. They protected their territory by attacking the intruder. You see, the cute cuddly bears we see in the commercials at Christmas aren't real. (In case you missed that) Well apparently the chick in Germany did miss that fact. If you scroll through the pictures there is one of her treading water and looking quite pleased with herself. I am guessing she quit being pleased with herself when the bears attacked. Polar Bear Attack at Zoo

Sword fight to the death

No, this is not one of the stories from the fantasy books I read. This is real news. 77 year old Franziska Stegbauer was stabbed while trying to break up a sword fight between her grandson and brother- in-law. Both men were also hospitalized with stab wounds. These two must have spent way too much time at DragonCon or something. Sword fighting is so 1580's. The cool kids moved on from sword fighting years ago. Grandma Sword Fight Death

Will commute for food

It's a dog eat dog world out there. Ok I just couldn't resist the bad pun and you'll understand in a minute. The following story is very unusual. It seems that in Russia after the collapse of Communism, the stray dogs had to get creative to find food. So what would any smart dog in a newly found capitalist country do? Why commute of course. These dogs have a place where they stay at night. The problem is that it is in the suburbs. There is not much scavenging for stray dogs in the suburbs. So they had to find a way into town to get food. These dogs have learned to take the Subway trains. They even know which stop they get off and on at. They are really quite smart. They get on the trains and usually go to the last car where it is less crowded. They take a nice nap on the seats and then once in town it is time to hunt. The dogs have developed several strategies, but the most popular is the scare tactic they use. They go to where there are sidewalk food kiosks and wait till someone buys food. Once the person is casually walking away the dog will go up behind them and bark loudly to startle the person into dropping the food. Presto! Lunch! This goes on all day, and in the evenings the dogs get back on the subway, and go home. And we think we are the higher species. They get a hot meal a couple times a day for free and don't have to buy a subway ticket. Now granted they are homeless dogs... but it doesn't seem they do too badly I think. But check it out for yourself. There's pictures and all. Just keep in mind that the article is translated into English. It is perfectly understandable, but there are a few grammar mishaps.

I'm leaving on a jet plane....

I have a favorite foodie blog that I read called Accidental Hedonist. Now I don't read every article, but there are often some tasty looking recipes on there that I will put in the "I will make that one of these days" slot in my head. They also post some food related political stuff that I enjoy reading like articles on the whole Foie Gras ban etc (or however you spell it). But today there was a post on airline travel that I thought was interesting. And I thought you might enjoy it as well. It is a reminiscent view of how plane travel used to be, but is no more.

Are The Years of Happy Travel Behind Us?
04/09/09 @ 05:58:39 pm, by Jennifer Heigl 22 views • Categories: Travel, Transportation & Travel, Air

Remember the days when flying used to be enjoyable? So often we travel to faraway places and talk about our fabulous destinations, the wonderful food, the beautiful views. But when was the last time you had something nice to say about getting there?
On Sunday, returning from a family wedding in Las Vegas, I had the opportunity to upgrade to the First Class cabin. Funny enough, though I was excited initially, I was nearly saddened once I arrived at my window at 2A. My faux leather seat felt more like a soft recliner and less like a scratchy fortress. A fresh bottle of water awaited me on the armrest tray. And the cheerful flight attendant happily brought me a soft, dark blue blanket and pillow to curl up with during my flight.
But what made me sad was remembering that this was how it once was when you flew, no matter what class you were in. I've traveled quite a bit in my short thirty-two years, and I remember the days when it was a great adventure. The stewards and stewardesses (you used to be able to call them that) would provide a whole assortment of logo-ed entertainment knickknacks, from plastic airline wings to decks of playing cards. They would smile and greet you enthusiastically upon entering and exiting the plane. They would even offer to grab drinks without the formal beverage service.
I gazed longingly at the empty spaces where television screens once hung from the cabin ceiling. I remember how much I used to love boarding the plane with my favorite magazine in hand, pulling the freely provided in-flight headphones from their plastic casings in the seat pocket in front of me, plugging them into the armrests, and connecting to the whole world of airline radio. If I was lucky, it'd be a long flight, and those marvelous TV screens would flicker mid-flight, offering movies and short television clips.
As I noshed on a warm piece of chicken and salad from my first class perch, I even thought about how nice it was to receive a hot meal during your flights. Back in the day, it didn't matter - First Class, Business Class, Coach Class. Everyone received tray and a smile. Even if it wasn't the best meal in the world, there was an edible salad or not-so-stiff roll. Before they started to cut meals, airlines were even venturing more in the natural and organic market, offering local, healthier items.
Now, you're lucky if they're selling a cold box of cheese and crackers.
Gazing at my fellow passengers - they didn't look any happier in First Class than they did in Coach - I wondered if we'll ever get back to that appreciation of travel, or if airlines will continue to squish us out of our comfort zones. It seems like each time I fly, the attendants are grumpier and grumpier, and the amenities are less and less. Some airlines, like Alaska and Frontier, have adjusted their cabins to make them more user-friendly, keeping the few blankets and pillows still available and even installing personal TVs in the case of Frontier, but the comforts of travel seem to be falling to the wayside. Will we eventually stop traveling due to the hassle and discomfort of getting to our destinations?

Just an observation

I have to say that those of you who faithfully read this blog (Thank you) never comment on the posts I expect. A lot of times I put or say stuff just to get a rise out of someone one. I seem to be failing miserably at this, because inevitably you all post comments on the stories I don't particularly think you will find interesting enough to make the effort to comment on. That's all. Just an observation. I'm just sayin'

Really?

I have a "flair" on my Facebook page that says "The pain will end when it stops hurting." It made me giggle. Redundancy can often be amusing or even sarcastic if used properly. I was browsing through some Internet articles this evening and came upon an article about the late Kurt Cobain's estate. It seems that those Cobain left his estates to, have robbed it blind. There are now federal authorities and attorneys and accountants involved to try and recover what has been pilfered. This to me was not the truly interesting part. What I found amusing was the quote that Courtney Love's attorney made to the Press. Now this is a woman who used the word turpitude properly. (Which for those of you like me who don't know the word but like to learn new words- it means: { as a noun-} vile, shameful, or base character; depravity or a vile or depraved act.) She then brilliantly says "Courtney noticed the money was gone when there wasn't any left." Might as well say that the number one killer in America is death... tell your friends.

It is now illegal to carry cash onto planes

I will admit my ignorance about the Liberty group that was involved with this encounter. But the fact remains that the TSA agents were clearly trying to bully this man with their authority. TSA detains man for carrying cash

Why not?

Obama has run us into Trillions of dollars in debt to bail out companies who are still paying CEO benefits in the millions. He has guaranteed us 13 dollars a paycheck to break the current economic crisis. He has said that it is ok to take body parts from full term abortions and Frankenstein them on living children. So I kind of have to agree with Carlos Santana, and ask Obama to do something good for a "change." Legalize weed so that we can at least get taxes and revenue going, instead of sinking millions of dollars into a losing battle fighting it. Carlos Santana Tells Obama to Legalize Pot - Spinner.com

More news from the world of stupid

Steven Lamensdorf has been arrested for giving a bottle of rum to his fourteen year old gymnastic student. This was no twisted tale of a creepy guy trying to get a girl drunk so that he could do bad things. This was the moron's way of rewarding the child for nailing a difficult maneuver in the gym. There is a reason why it is illegal for a fourteen year old to drink. Bad things will happen because they are too young to understand what they are doing. Of course the fourteen year old had to go to the hospital,one could assume from alcohol poisoning, after being given the rum. And of course the coach was fired. He has been charged with child endangerment and unlawfully dealing with a child. What about the charge for bad decisions and the charges of being too stupid to live?

How to excercise for better sex

I found this brief pictorial article fascinating. It gives detailed instructions for men on how to strengthen themselves for specific sexual positions. It also explains how to pull off said positions so that you understand why the exercises will help. But more so, there were one or two that I haven't tried yet. And I thought to myself, "self, that sounds like fun!" But this is for you gentleman folk out there! Enjoy!

Attendance policy

In high school I was one of those few kids that got perfect attendance. I assure you, it was not my choice. I have always been afraid of punishment, however; and if my folks took me to school that's where I was. They knew what to do to get to me. Oh sure, beat me all you want, whatever. But for the love of all things holy don't take away my sports and my music. That, my friends, is how they got me. I could have easily skipped class, but being very unlucky and not at all sneaky, I would have most certainly gotten caught. So, to prevent being deprived of what I wanted, I trudged dutifully from class to class. This is what I like to call "teaching children there are consequences to their actions." Or in short, fear.
Now I don't know if the parents of the child in this article did this or not. We'll call the above story an aside, and leave it at that. The parents in this story, Mark and Margaret Gillan, received a letter telling them that their daughter's attendance was so bad that if it did not improve she would be banned from her prom. Well in their words they were "floored" to read that letter. These parents were not self deceiving, their daughter had passed away in January.
Talk about PR nightmare. I am sorry it seems we forgot your daughter died. Our bad. Somebody lost their job after that fiasco I am sure.

Workin "9 to 5"

If you haven't seen the classic 80's movie 9 to 5 then where have you been? Seriously you need to see it if nothing else so that you can understand what I am talking about here. It seems that in France,in true 9-5 fashion, workers
of 3M were on strike. In order to make sure their demands were met, they took their boss hostage.
What is really interesting is that this apparently is not an uncommon tactic used over there.
"In France, it is not unheard-of for striking workers to hold company executives as a way of winning concessions from management. The hostages are almost never injured."
Did you catch that last part? Hostages are Almost never injured. But check out the article. I wonder if the screen writers for 9-5 got their idea from France and who is playing the part of Dolly? Those are some large blouses to fill.

What really sets me off

You know, I might get agitated when someone does something to me. I might fuss for a little while, but ultimately I will let it go. Do what you want to me, but don't even think about messing with someone I care about!
The quickest way to receive my anger is to do something to one of my family or one of my friends. Medea and a chainsaw ain't got nothin' on me then.

I have a friend who is being kicked out on the street by someone who is supposed to A) be her friend and B) calls herself a Christian. This girls name is Kristen. Yes, I am calling her by name because I am mad! Now fortunately my friend has a temporary spot to go, she can come to my house, she can go to my friend L. and J's place. There are people that actually are her friend and who truly do care for her. Friends stick together, they help each other out and they love you even when you are stupid. (which in my case I know they are real friends cause I am stupid a lot.) Kristen doesn't get it. She is an idiot. When she lost her job a while back every one pitched in and helped her out financially, emotionally etc. Does she understand the concept of Kharma? No. Does she understand doing for others what has been done for her? No. She has been completely unaccommodating from the start. She has two cats but wouldn't let my friend bring hers. My friend was probably paying the greater portion of Kristen's rent as well. This girl better hope that I don't run into her for a long time. Cause not only will she get an ear full, but I will take off the earrings and my rings, the fake nails and the weave and I will whip her ass. She better dodge me for a good solid 6 months because it is going to take at least that long for me to cool down. This dumb girl who thinks she is an interior designer. She hung carpet squares on the wall for decoration, after I told her the story about the house with the carpet on the wall. It's not a wonder she lost her job as an "interior designer" She sucks! Ooooo girl you better keep away from me!!!!

Poor thing

This is a story about a horse who is allergic to grass. I know! How crazy! The poor horse can't go outside much at all and when she does she has to wear coverings and a hood to protect her eyes. If the grass brushes her she gets welts. She is allowed to nibble a little grass, but she has to eat a special diet of sugar beet chaff and soya oil. She also has to take 15 antihistamine tablets a day. Can you imagine being a horse who can't be a horse? Someone needs to build the horse a great big bubble so she can be outside. If you scroll through the pics on the website that say animals in the news you can find a picture of Pandora the horse after 3 or 4 pics. She is all done up in her hood and coverings. Thank goodness she was owned by people who would care for her despite the high maintenance and cost.

Layoffs

Well, in a piece of news I find particularly disturbing, we find out that the American condom makers are having to make layoffs. The layoffs are a reaction to continuing production jobs going over seas. I fear condoms from China. They can't even make pet food that isn't poisonous. I do not want to risk STD's and baby drama to something made in China or Taiwan. So please, when you buy condoms, buy American. Please.

I am at a loss for words...

We've all seen the stories: couple married at Waffle House or Wal-Mart or whatever. This one is a story about a couple that married at White Castle.

" Usually people get married in a church, but think about it, it's going to be a wedding to remember," the bride's friend, Kelli Vanarsdale, told WYMTNews.com. "How many weddings can you go to and then talk about it later and say 'Hey, I had a wedding in a White Castle!'?""

There are so many things wrong with this I almost don't know where to begin. Can you tell by the sound of my typing that I am grinning and shaking my head? But I did say I ALMOST didn't know where to begin. Let's start with the quote "it's going to be a wedding to remember" Well yes. It certainly will be one for the books. The part of the quote that really makes me chuckle is "how many weddings can you go to...and say 'Hey I had a wedding in a White Castle'"
Well I can attest that in my life I have never met anyone that has been married in a White Castle. Is this something to be proud of? Is this something that you are sitting around with your friends and say, wow that's cool that you did that at your wedding but listen to this...? I just.. I really am at a loss. The grooms brother even went on to tell the news that "It's a beautiful thing." Check out the video,they look like they might already be related and if you listen really closely you will hear the banjos. Couple Marries in White Castle Wedding Ceremony - AOL Food

Cat-fight old school

This story makes me giggle. It is a fairly common occurence of two women fighting over a man. I will say that I think fighting over a man is stupid. No man is worth making an ass of yourself to prove yourself the alpha female, when he is a cheating bastard to begin with. If he's not cheating, but won't pick one at a time, he's still not worth it. And women who feel they have to fight over a man don't know their own worth. Move on and respect yourself first and foremost. OK so I never told you why it made me giggle. The women were ages 72 and 78. Seriously? Yep. Although the youngster of this story nearly got shot. Don't mess with an old woman with a gun! Fortunately for the younger woman, the gun misfired. I guess at age 78 the older woman had not kept up with proper care of her gun. It seems that the worst damages done were hitting, scratching and hair pulling. I tell you what, I would have paid good money to see two 70 somethings fighting! Check out the video clip from the news, you'll see what I mean!

Immaturity

This post is a personal rant. Those of you who know me, know that every year I go to a hat party. It is something I look forward to every year. This year I won't be going. Why? Well, here's the thing. I have no idea. One of the hosts told my dearest friend D. that I was not welcome. We have racked our brains and can't figure out why. Now the hosts have not bothered to tell me that I am not invited. So your next question is why wouldn't I know if I didn't receive an invitation? Here's why. The host has, for years, said that once you've been invited you are always invited. I have received invitations off an on over the years. And those of you that know me know that I have moved frequently over the past several years. I thought nothing of not getting an invitation because who can keep up with my address? It has been a party that, if you get an invitation in the mail, you are asked to spread the word to those who did not. Well that is still true, unless you are me.
I understand that I can be brash and offensive. I know my flaws. I am aware that sometimes I say things that I don't mean as they sound. The thing is, the people I have spoken to that know both myself and the two hosts, don't believe that this is the situation. But we can't know, because, officially I am not even supposed to know that I am not invited. The hosts are just assuming that I will forget about the party till it is too late. Never mind that I speak to a large number of people on a regular basis that attend the party as I have, every year.
My issue with this is not that I am not invited, it's that no one has the balls to say it to me. If you tell me you don't want me in your house or at your party then I won't come. I am a big girl. I haven't seen this kind of thing since, I don't know, High school. We're inviting the cool kids, don't tell so and so there is a party this weekend, she is too nerdy, we can tell her after the party has already happened. I have had a lot of thoughts run through my mind as to how to deal with this. I first thought about emailing them and asking them why. I thought about driving out to their house and confronting them in person. I have thought about sending out a notice to everyone that is normally invited telling them what kind of crap this is. And I have thought about playing stupid and just showing up to the party as if I had no idea that this year, unlike every other year, I am not invited. ( I will admit to the fact that I am still seriously considering the last one as immature as it is) But I keep coming to the same thought every time I ponder all this. If I act at all, I will most likely lower myself down to their level. This is an idea I absolutely abhor. And secondly, I don't believe I have done or said anything to warrant this whole situation. There are a lot of factions in this group, and not everyone loves me. I normally leave those people alone. It's just not worth the energy to fake it, or fight over it. But D. and a few others believe that it may be one of these haters that has poured poison into our host's ear.
The thing is, I have invited several friends and one of my professors as I have done every year. My professor is an old friend of one of the hosts. I now have to look like an idiot and tell them all, " I know I invited you to this party and got you all psyched up about it, but yeah, I've not been invited this year." It's a completely riddiculous situation. And it's as immature as it comes. If you have a problem with me, then come to me. If I have a problem with you, I will come to you. That is how grown-ups work things out. Either we will fix things, agree to disagree, or agree to part ways. But don't tell my friend I can't come to a party that I have always come to, and then not tell me. It's just childish. So I would like input on what you all think I should do. But I will go ahead and warn you I am leaning towards doing nothing at all and just saying screw it and them!

A woman was arrested for biting her son's principal. No this is not some tale of an elicit love affair. The woman is just apparently a grown idiot. Not to mention, she is also an excellent example for her kids. The principal told the boys mother that her son was being suspended for three days. His crime was failing to go to a room for children who have misbehaved. What does mom do? She bites the principal and punches him in the face. Outstanding. Then to top it off, she assaults the cop who tries to arrest her. I wonder where her son learned his disruptive behavior from?

This just pisses me off

The people in this article rank right up there with ignorant lazy people that have babies to stay on welfare and get a check. Granted, these particular bastards are in Britain but I am sure there are some here in the US. This just shows what's wrong with the system. This couple has not worked in eleven years because, they say, they are too fat to work. That, my friend, is crap. You can't work because you are freakin lazy! They are ages 53 and 57. And are perfectly capable of working. If you can stand to take a picture, then you can freaking work. They have two fat ass daughters that at least for the moment are working. The daughters are bigger than the parents. The worst part about this story is not that they are living off of working tax payers. The worst part of this is that they are complaining that they don't get enough money. "What we get barely covers the bills and puts food on the table. It's not our fault we can't work. We deserve more," Philip Chawner told the newspaper. Grrrrr. I could just shove a chicken leg down his throat to choke him!!! I would just have to be careful to get my hand back before he ate it.
