The Blame Game - What About You? 2007-10-05 09:23:00 In the past year there have been news reports about certain incidents that have resulted in the death of someone. Afterward their families have been whining and crying and blaming everyone but themselves and the person involved for what happened to them. What comes to mind and prompts this blog is the recent incident at the Phoenix, Arizona airport whereby a Carol Anne Gotbaum, who was late for her connecting flight, was not allowed on the plane, began screaming and running around in the airport, was handcuffed, and later died in police custody. According to reports, she apparently strangled herself in the holding cell with her handcuffs. After her arrest and handcuffing she was placed in the cell where she continued to scream. Eight minutes later police noticed she was silent, went in, and found her "tangled" in the handcuffs. The police tried to resuscitate her to no avail. Tragic to be sure. But who's fault? A recently released videotape shows her being handcuffed on the ground i Read more:Blame
Jailed Boy-Band Guru a 'Sexual Predator - How To Pimp Your Kid for Fun and $ 2007-10-03 19:09:00 Another "businessman" pervert found molesting children. Once again, I'm shocked. According to "Vanity Fair" which hit the newsstands October 3rd, "boyband" guru, Louis Perlman (who created boyband groups like *NSYNC, Take 5, LFP, O Town, and the Back Street Boys) was doing a little more than just promoting those boy bands. Okay he's a pervert that's pretty much a given. Parents, guess what? Some clown wants to take your under-aged kid under his wing and "mentor" him or her, he's probably a pervert. Parents. So eager to get the big 'ole mighty dollar out of little junior, pimp their kids to any sexual predator out there just so they can buy a big-screened TV. Hell, I don't know why perverts slink around elementary schools risking arrest when all they have to do is make some gullible, greedy parents salivate by waving around a dollar bill with one hand while their other hand is up some kid's skirt or down some boy's pants. Why risk arrest when some stoopid-assed parent will just Read more:Sexual

EA Games SUCKS Big Time - Thank god for Tech Geeks 2007-10-01 20:05:00 EA games still sucks big time. Thank
goodness for tech geeks that are willing to post their knowledge. As usual I figured out the problem with a little help from the Internet. God I do love the Internet! Any time I'm having a problem with my computer - to the Internet I go. As some of you may know, I was having problems with EA games download manager. I downloaded Sims 2 Pets and Seasons from EA and was suddenly having problems with connecting to the EA games website so I could play The Sims (I still don't like that sh*t). Tech "Support" and I, and I use the term loosely, played footsie with each other until I was ready to hire my own goons to beat me senseless and put me out of my misery. I get really crabby when my trusty old computer is not working. I am addicted to the Internet and consider surfing the one hobby I have not abandoned. Anyway, first I searched for EC5510 to see if I could find someone posting in a group. Well I found postings as far back as over a year ago, but no Read more:Games

EA Games SUCKS Big Time 2007-09-30 18:33:00 I have always liked EA games. I am not a big gamer or play on-line games all that much. However, I have been a fan of The Sims and have played nearly every version of it since the beginning, including The Sims On-line, Xbox, and PS. Fortunately, I have always been able to play any version of The Sims from just about any computer I have owned. Including my desktop which is pretty darn old but I keep it updated with downloaded drivers and graphic cards updates from Microsoft. I also added memory because The Sims was starting to play really slow.Recently, I downloaded The Sims2, Seasons and Pets because I wanted to play immediately and was too impatient to wait to get them in the mail and too lazy to go to Best Buy. Well I am so sorry I did. I occasionally download games to play for that one-hour trial period. And when I do, I am playing the game from my desktop although I am sure there is code in there and the game company is probably getting some kind of feedback on my gameplay. Maybe, Read more:Games

When "Funny" Just Turns Boring 2007-09-26 21:59:00 I have a wicked sense of humor and if something is funny..well its just damned funny even if it is at my expense. I listen to an afternoon radio show (at work I can only get two channels and unless I want to listen to the same 5 songs all day long...) and every day its the same thing over and over and over...and I don't feel angry or insulted - just weary...its boring.I know if I called in just to say, I'm not even offended...you just make me feel..... tired..I will be disparaged for being too sensitive or too politically correct. And that's not it at all...its just plain B-O-R-I-N-G. Its always racial or gay this or that (yesterday's was how funny it is that if a black person drives or walks through one of the host's neigborhood they are constantly stopped and harassed) Today it was black people, Asian people, some Hispanic people, some sort of Middle Eastener, and gay people. Today there were a hilarious rendition of Chinese accents and one hilarious question: "What would prefer Read more:Funny
Oscar De La Hoya In Drag!!!!! 2007-09-25 20:43:00 Oh boy, another celebrity icon falls by the wayside! Oscar
De La Hoya in drag (not that there is anything wrong with that). White bra and a tutu or something, body fishnet stocking. Another case of celebrities behaving badly. Are they all stoopid? Does fame drain all the brains out of your head? In real life you can barely trust your own mother, much less allowing a bunch of strangers in on your little picadillos. You really have to be a special kind of stoopid to allow some skanky pickup chicks that you've known for like 72 hours get you drunk, dress you in drag, and start taking pictures of you that you just have to know will be all over the internet and YouTube in a New York minute, unless of course you are stoopid. And doesn't that hotel room look just the pits? Or is that someone's skeevy apartment? I mean look at the blue "suede" couch. Get out. See, everyone likes to wallow in a little dirt every now and then. Talk about slumming. Good gravy the longer I live the
Want To Speak A Little Yiddish? 2007-09-23 19:03:00 The great thing about language is that it is organic, fluid, and ever evolving and there is no one language that is not touched by another language. The other great thing is you can't learn a new language without learning about the culture of the people who speak it and learning equates to understanding and appreciation. Think about it. Anyway, in the interest of spelling the Yiddish saying Oy Veh (Oi, Vai! - Dear me! Expression of dismay or hurt) I perused the internet and came upon this wonderful Yiddish Dictionary. I share it here for those of you who would like to learn an expression to toss around here and there. Just click the title above to go directly to the websiteSuggestions and additions to Yiddish dictionary can be sent to the authorMichael D. Feinwho can be contacted by e-mail. e-mail goes to: yiddishkeit@pass.tobe sure to put "Yiddishkeit" in the subject line.
Making A Bunny Cake 2007-09-22 00:34:00 My son was born around Easter time and for several years I would make him a bunny cake. You'll need a cake mix, icing, coconut flakes, candy pieces (jelly beans, candy string, gum drops), red food coloring, and a large flat cookie sheet.Use any cake mix you want and bake in two round pans. Let them cool so they won't flake or crumble. Take one half and cut two narrow ovals from opposite sides. Those are the ears and the middle piece becomes a bow. Place them on the cookie sheet - bow at the bottom, round head from the second piece, and two bunny ears at the top. Now ice the cake and sprinkle with coconut flakes for fur. Now give your bunny gum drop eyes, candy string whiskers, and a jelly bean dotted tie. Mix some coconut flakes with a little red food color to give your bunny's ears a pink interior. Enjoy!

Mack MurderWell I'm shocked! It's momma skanky boyfriend. What a mind-blower!!! I reprint the story below from Yahoo NewsBy PAUL J. WEBER Thu Sep 13, 4:31 PM ET CORSICANA, Texas - A 6-year-old girl who had been sexually assaulted was found hanged inside her family's garage, and authorities on Thursday described her mother's boyfriend as the primary suspect.

Hannah Mack Murder - Six Year Old Found Hanged and Sexually Assaulted in Family Garage 2007-09-13 18:19:00 What is this BS that I read about in my local newspaper while eating dinner? That's why I hate to read the news, there is so much horror in there. This sweet little six year old was found hanging in the family garage by her mom in Navarro Mills Lake, Texas. Police say she was sexually assaulted as well. Most recent report is that there is a named suspect, but the police are releasing little other information. The cops are tightlipped on this one. Good. I am sick of media whores from celebrity crap to real human tragedy. Cops are there to investigate, not to have their faces in the camera for 15 lousy minutes of pimping fame. Do your jobs, investigate, interrogate, and dragged whoever's rotten, stinking carcass who did this right to justice.But I gotta say, who do you think? Which one, mom or dad? And if not either of them. How is your six year old, other than in school, out of your sight long enough for someone to do this? Where are six year olds? In your care, grandpar Read more:Hannah

Owen Wilson - We Hardly Knew Ye 2007-09-11 21:33:00 Owen Wilson
, this is a little late, but what the hell happened? You're cute, funny. Although sometimes your nose at certain angles scares me. It looks like the tip is going to fall off. Sometimes it distracts me when I'm laughing. I didn't see your last film, "You, Me, and Dupree". It didn't look like it was so good. But in the promo's you looked like you were trying your darnest to be - cute, funny. I liked the "Wedding Crashers" though. Well Ms. P has a theory about what happened. And remember she is always right if not right right now. Then she'll be right later. You were just damned bored. I mean in between movies, what in the hell do you have to do with yourself all day? The average American vacation is less than two weeks. How many months, years do you have before you shoot a picture? How many years was it between "Shanghai Noon" and "Shanghai Knights"? What? You sleep to 3:00 p.m. Get up, wash your butt, dress, then call up some buds? Hang out a little? Get to drinkin' an Read more:Hardly Knew
Britany Spears - Lookin' A Mess 2007-09-11 18:54:00 Good gravy. Woke up yesterday listening to my favorite radio in the a.m., "Chio in the Morning" on 96.5 Wired, a Philly station. They were blasting Britney Spears
' performance on the MTV, VMA awards Sunday night. I gotta see this. Can't pull up anything video at work so I have to wait until I get home. Get home and I trundle on over to Youtube.com. Darn, taken down for infringement rights, blah, blah, blah. So I truck on over to TMZ.com. Can't find squat. I think about going over to PerezHilton.com but I figure I will be wading through all kinds of celebrity crap. So I just decide to surf her name and see what I can see. I finally find it on a newsfeed and there she was, lookin' a mess. Wig all crooked. Fat, bloated. Back thighs covered in cellulite. Clumping around stage. And she looked just like what she is - a tired mommy of two kids. Honey, the minute you dropped that first puppy? You were on the way out as America's lovable hottie. Okay, earlier on you wanted to change your i
The Duggar Family - America's Creepist Family 2007-09-10 22:04:00 One word, "yeech". Has anyone seen this show? They are so icky. Always smiling and patient, with 19 kids yet. Apparently, they are supporting themselves and their children and are not on the public dole. Their children are well-mannered and behaved and I have never seen Mr. or Mrs. Duggar
ruffled, harried, unpleasant, and scowling; or smacking or yelling at their kids - in other words they are just not normal like the rest of us parents who are on occasion harried and unpleasant. Who scowl, yell, and been known to smack one of our kids when they had it coming. I keep waiting for one of them to snap and just reach around and slap one of those kids, or scream, or yell or something - anything that will let me think they are normal and will not snap at any moment and go on a rampage and burn down the countryside.I figure a pregnant (for the frigging 20th time) Mrs. Duggar will let loose one night when Mr. Duggar comes siddling over on her side of the bed and starts rubbing on her leg or so Read more:Family

17 Year Old Millionaire (Some People Are Meant To Be Broke) 2007-09-07 20:02:00 Did you hear about the seventeen year old (Ashley Qualls)making $70,000 a month making banners and other stuff for MySpace on her website, "WhateverLife.com", from Adsense, no less? Personally, I just want to smack her. Or me.Ah, the fantasy. First check $600+, second check $2,700+. Okay so first I hoard the $600 check and tell my husband nothing. I hoard, the second check but maybe by the fourth or fifth, I tell him, "Don't write that check, I'll pay that bill." After one year, the mortgage gets paid in full and maybe I start to feel comfortable enough to quit my job. My brain rattles around as I obsess over minor details, like who'll pay my medical insurance?So I get this far. I've sold the house and quit my job when it occurred to me I have no one place to go. Where should I live? The South? Stay north? Stay put? I suddenly realize, I have absolutely no imagination. How pathetic. I don't know what to do with that much money.

Hard Candy - A Little Tale of Underaged Dating 2007-09-07 19:20:00 Whoa! Just got through watching the indie film, "Hard Candy
". The film relates the tale of the preyed and the predator. The Term "Hard Candy" is used by internet predators about underaged individuals.Not quite sure what to make of it. When the character, Jeff, (Patrick Wilson) is tied down on the table, while Hayley (Ellen Page), the underaged preyed, prepares to castrate him, I actually felt sorry for him, the predator (or is he?) Sometimes I didn't like her (although I liked her sarcasm) Actually, I never found the character likeable and wasn't rooting for her. Strange, since she was about to castrate a pedophile. Hmmm. Kudos to the actor who played Jeff. I guess he made him human. Read more:Dating
Ms. P Is Always Right 2007-09-07 14:49:00 Yeah, I said it. Ms P *is* always right. When I was younger I knew even then that people with life experience probably knew what they were talking about and I paid attention. That's why I grew up keeping stupid-ass mistakes to a minimum. And damn if those people didn't know what they were talking about, especially those old broads. There is not one thing they said that didn't end up being true. I'm good with figuring out character, sizing people up. I've been good at that since I was kid and could tell you what someone said when I wasn't even in the room. Darned, I'm psychic (just kidding - well I am a little). I mean it as a joke. Anyone with common sense can predict the future. Your girlfriend dating an a-hole? Can you see his foot up her butt at a later date? Got a friend dabbling in drugs? Can you predict "drug addiction" in their future? Doesn't take a rocket scientist. And like my post about "Helping Others, My Theory on Fire and Water", some idiot would come to me ask me Read more:Right
Helping Others, My Theory on Fire and Water 2007-09-07 14:22:00 Here's my theory about helping others - don't. F*ck them. They don't want your help, even when they ask for it. People are full of sh*t and the sooner you do-gooders realize that, the sooner you can get on with your life and help your damned self.I don't care if someone is begging you for your advice. Don't give it. What they really want is to start an argument with you. Every step of the way they are going to resist any effort from you to impart some wisdom that you (you idiot) think that they think you have. Or else why on earth would they ask you for it?Well you just don't get it. Nobody, but nobody thinks you are so darn smart that they are going to change their ways or start living their life according to something you spew out. No siree bob. They have just interrupted your own personal train of thought, inserted themselves into your life, and revolved themselves into your sphere to suck your stupid, pompous ass into their vortex, which is all FUBAR (f*ucked up beyond all re Read more:Helping

The Bible According to Me 2007-09-07 14:18:00 The title for my blog came from a coworker. I had helped this coworker to organize herself because I could see she was having a lot of problems with data entry. I made up a few forms she could hand-write on and give to her secretary to enter the data. Okay, fast forward one week and another coworker is having the same problems. I go back to coworker "1" and ask for a copy of the forms as a sample for coworker "2". Well she has the forms alright, but in a folder labeled "The Bible According to Paulie".See what you get for helping someone? Well I have a theory on that.

Why Do Women Cheat 2007-09-07 13:39:00 Why do women cheat? Because they can. We are better at it. Men change when they are cheating. They start dressing better, changing their routines and schedules, peeling their rears off the couch and hitting the gym, working late. They are so obvious. Women
tend to keep to the same patterns. They also think about it and plan it more - and better. Men get nasty and arrogant. Suddenly, you are too fat, too old, too stupid, and too ugly to be alive. Women can also have sex several times a day with multiple partners without her performance being suspect.Really, the question is why do women cheat? They cheat because their partners have forgotten to let them know they love them. They forget the little things. Like helping around the house. Taking care of the kids. Making her feel loved. Taking her out to dinner. Come on, guys, you heard all of this before. Again and again. We are sending out a message. Somehow you guys are not getting it.

Wearing Same Colors At Work...? 2007-10-15 19:58:00 Ever come to work and everyone is wearing the same colors? Is that scary or what?

Replies.Ever come to work and everyone is wearing the same colors? Is that scary or what? Like everyone in your office is turning into a drone or the pod people? Remember when you used to dressed differently just to show you were a rebel (of course, you and your young friends, rebels all, dressed exactly alike just to show the adults just how unique you were). It happens a lot. At least in all of the offices I've been in. Show up at work dressed in brown and at least 5-7 other people are also dressed in brown. Wear pink one day and even the guys are wearing pink shirts or something. You thought you would be a rebel and instead you've started walking lock-step with the rest of the drones.
