CROCS OF SHIT

Even purple (OOO they come in colors!!) can't help these hideous pieces of foot ware. I have seen them on EVERYONE, even lil Shiloh Jolie -Pitt was forced to sport a pair in a recent pic. They are esthetically offensive and if you wear or have ever worn them..i am sorry, YOU are a dork.

Christian Fenger Academy High School has nothing to be proud of. Monique Bond, Chicago Public Schools spokeswoman, has denounced the beating as "gang related" and NOT a reflection on the school. Madam, your part of the problem. I could say something about "Christian's" (as they all attended the "christian" academy), I could say something racial (but they were all black). I could get just as degraded and ferocious as the KIDS in the video, but then i would be on their level.( I am not). This isn't a crime of any of the a fore mentioned. It IS a crime against humanity & human nature. It is not an American burden, beatings like this happen globally. If watching the video didn't make you absolutely sick to your stomach, then sadly your apathy is showing. Truth is..we are all to blame. People in general have become numb to the violence and hatred that run rampant in society. The kids that filmed the video acted like they were watching some movie or something. They sure as hell weren't calling 911. Chicago wants to be a host to the Olympics...I am thinking NOT. Here is the video. I do not blame anyone that does not want to view this, it's horrendous, disgusting and vile. Just imagine your child (or you if you have no children) being beat to death in a crowded street with a 2x4. Sleep well..after all this isn't YOUR child or town. YET.

The people of Walmart

Brothers Andrew and Adam Kipple and A friend Luke Wherry have started a viral phenom. The images on their site portray the people seen on a daily basis at local Walmart stores. Some of them are funny, some a tad distasteful, but all are amusing. So a friendly reminder, when you take your next trip to "wally world" you may want to take a look in the mirror before leaving the house!

Comments?

I have been on twitter a little over a month. I have met some fantastic people there. These are people i would have never crossed paths with in my real life, but now they are dear friends and almost like family. I worry about the one with the earache, I feel sad for the one who's uncle passed away. I can relate to the one who's job is hard and tiring. I get feed back and info from the ones who's lifestyles are so different from mine. I follow ones golf games, I pray for the ones that are sick, and rejoice for the ones that have found love & light. There is also another side of the twitter deal that bothers me. I spoke to someone once and they warned me about 2 people that i tweet with. Mind you, she calls them "babe" and is sweet as hell when she tweets them. I suspect there is a jealousy going on, but thats not my business. Why are people so critical of others? we are all human, no one is perfect. What do people get out of broadcasting other peoples business? How would WE feel if everyday our personal failures or love lives were told to the world? no one should feel bad for the way they are in this life. Fat, thin, bald, short, tall,white,black, straight ,gay..whatever...live and let live! Does it make one feel better to belittle someone else? The people i have met are total strangers to me, but they are so supportive of me and each other. If you really want to meet some outstanding examples of 100% real people go to my twitter page and follow my ones that i follow. i only have 23 followers since i locked my account, but they are the best you will find anywhere. I just felt the need to let this out. thx for taking the time to read.

Condoms are your friend

This is inspired by a convo i saw the other night. If your a man who refuses to wear a condom when asked, then you are part of a still growing problem. Hiv has not gone away. There are people being infected at alarming rates. Media is partially to blame. You can see commercials all day long for Tampons, Prostrate, vaginal care, Viagra,Cialis etc..but the condom commercials are few & far between. The two fastest growing populations for infection are the 19-35 age group and the 55-70 year olds! (thx to Viagra). Aside from being totally irresponsible, it's not fair to your unsuspecting partner. So as far as i am concerned ladies, it's up to you. If he refuses to wear a condom, then no sex! Period.

First,last & only comment on Miley

I am by no means "old fashioned". I like to think I am fairly open minded. But the way Miss Cyrus carries herself in public is really just a glimpse of another Britney waiting to happen. I will bet money she does a Playboy spread before she is 22. Shame on her parents for letting her expose herself in such a manner. Billy Ray, is your career so tanked you need to pimp your kid out? Normally I wouldn't give a rats ass about "Hollywierds" kids gone wild, but I have a grand daughter that thinks Miley is the end all. All the suzy cream cheese crap she portrays on the Disney channel & in her movies is very misleading to a lot of parents who are looking for a good role model for their impressionable "tweens". Trust me..Miley Cyrus isn't it. I would rather my grand daughter look up to someone like Lindsey Lohan, at least she is straight up about who she is. I can't believe I am in here trashing a 16 year old, but for the record, it didn't take much..she already had a running start. Miley, this is what people who have no real or lasting talent do. Yes dear..Sex sells.

Banned Cartoons

I make no secret of the fact that i am a Grandmother, in fact a great grandmother as well. The other day while the kids were watching "Baby Einstein" dvd's for the umpteenth time, I decided to find some of the old cartoons from my childhood to share with them. Imagine my surprise when I find out that all of my favorites are now BANNED! Thats right, they are now politically incorrect. With titles such as: Popeye's "Your a sap,Mr. Jap." WWll's Disney offering "Der Fuhrer's face." Bugs Bunny's "Tokio-Jokio." Tex Avery's "Red hot riding hood" Sylvester & Tweety "Satan's waitin" ...and the list goes on. My personal fav "Little black Sambo" is an absolute no-no. A whole generation was raised on these cartoons, that seemed to be nothing but political. I can see now how so many people from my generation are racist. It was drilled into our lil heads in the form of entertainment. I do not condone them being banned though. Sadly so much of our early history was so bad, the powers that be don't see fit to let parents decide what to expose (or not) their children to. I would like to think i have enough sense to let my older kids watch them, without them becoming skinheads, gay bashers, or racist. This really pisses me off that the Government feels a need to police freeking cartoons. It scares me as to what may be next.
