Give me a good reason

When people act stupid and then expect you to just forget about it, well that annoys the hell out of me. An apology is in order when you act like a child. You know you were wrong, so be a good friend and say your sorry, before you expect forgiveness. I apologize when I mess up. Why can’t you? I love you, so please grow up and act like a mature, responsible adult. Thank you so much.

Circus

I am not sure if I want to take the kids to the Circus or not. I know it is a fun thing for children, but I have a fundamental problem with the way they treat the animals they use in their show.

I am not the only one who has a problem with this either. I have seen a lot of people posting about not taking their kids for just this reason. If we feel strongly about this issue, then buying tickets just helps promote the continued abuse of animals.

It is a conundrum to be sure. Have a fun family outing at the Circus or forgo in protest for the animals? ugh…

E D is the New E R

Lately I have been noticing that on TV commercials, shows and even newscasts, what I have always called a hospital “Emergency Room” is now being called the “Emergency Department.”

I have a problem accepting this change. Is it really necessary?

Am I the only one who would watch the TV series “E R” every Thursday night in the 1990’s? That show would just not be the same if everyone had to call it “E D.” I really miss that show – it was something I looked forward to every Thursday night. The whole house knew to leave mom alone if E R was on the TV.

It might be more properly described as an entire department rather than a room, but does it REALLY matter? I think we are taking all this political correctness to an extreme. If it works, why mess with it?

Choose Your Pain

One of my Facebook friends was mugged. He got beat up pretty badly. Because he does not have any insurance he refused to go to the hospital. But he posted this questions on his Facebook wall this morning:

“What hurts worse? A broken rib, an abscessed tooth, or a concussion?”

What a horrible thing to have to choose which pain you can take care of know that you will have to just endure the others. My heart goes out to anyone who has to neglect their health and well being because they cannot get health insurance.

Fight Road Rash

If you are riding a scooter or motorcycle – be smart and wear a jacket, long pants and boots – even in the summer. You can’t safely ride in a teeshirt, shorts and flip flops. It’s too hot is a poor excuse for road rash.

You only get one skin – the scars never go away. I’ve seen what 30 mph on a back road and a beer can or a possum can do to mess up someone badly. I don’t want to be a Debbie Downer – Scooters and bikes are great fun but you gotta protect yourself. Seriously. Have smart fun – cover up!

Free Cell Phones

There have been a lot of commercials on TV promoting two companies who claim to offer free cell phones and free minutes each month to people who are disadvantaged. I can’t help wonder who is actually paying the bill for all these people to get free cell phones. Its not like they are a necessity – a cell phone is a luxury.

Why am I paying over $50 a month after all the fees and taxes for a phone when all these other people get their phones free? Is the Government spending my tax money to give all these people phones? I want a free phone, too!

Harry is Harriet

I heard a bout a new TV show called Harry’s Law. And I thought, great, another show about lawyers. We already have a bunch of shows, like Boston Legal, L.A. Law, The Defenders and others. So why do we need another legaldrama?

Well, this show is about Harriet who leaves a big corporate firm and sets up shop in the ghetto. Everyone calls her Harry and she is one tough cookie! I saw the pilot last week and I fell in love with it right away. I can’t wait to see the net episode, which is on tonight!

Need TV anywhere?

Once they went to digital signals, the TV’s wouldn’t work unless you had cable or bought one of those boxes.  Well I found another way and it’s with a Slingbox. Strange name I know but it works not only on your TV but also on your computer or just about anything else you want to watch TV on.  It’s compatible with any TV and you can even watch your home TV on any other TV in your home.  Awesome!!!

Love my new look

Well I have finally met my goal and now everyone is asking how.  Well I found the perfect weight loss pills for me and lost all I wanted to lose. I have recommended to my friends that they find the right pill for them that will help them to reach their goals.  I just love my new look and feel so much better about myself and physically too.  I’m sure they will too once they lose what they want to lose.

Oh my goodness!!!

I could not believe what I was seeing in this video.  Someone really needs to tell this girl that what she’s doing, just can’t be done.  You have to see this to believe it.  If this isn’t a God given talent then I have never seen one before.  Also a lot of hard work and practice.  It’s just amazing!!!!
