Did you hear about this dancer?

I know some people look down their noses at Exotic dancers but some young women are doing the best they can to support their children and after all, from what I hear, it does pay very well.  When I read this, it absolutely horrified me that someone would do that to someone else.

LOS ANGELES – An exotic dancer was set on fire outside the nightclub where she worked early Thursday, burning more than 60 percent of her body, police said. They were searching for two suspects. A woman and a man called the 27-year-old dancer outside around 1 a.m. and then doused her with a flammable liquid next to the Babes & Beer sports club in the San Fernando Valley, police said.

Police identified the suspects as Rianne Celine Theriault-Odom, 27, and Nathaniel Marquis Petrillo, 22, both frequent patrons of the club. They were being sought for investigation of attempted murder, police said. “Given the condition of this victim, they may be responsible for ultimately her murder,” Deputy Chief Michel Moore said. “This is a terrible, terrible attack.”

This is the mother of two children and there is no reason good enough for an attack like this on her.  I hope they find them and charge them with anything and everything they can.  They deserve to have the same thing done to them if you ask me.  What a horrible, horrible thing to do to any living creature but especially a human being.

About that apartment building

I told you about someone offering me an apartment building at a great price, remember?  Well I had someone go out and inspect everything and he said the land was worth more than the property.  The best I could do was to have it torn down and build anything else there.

Well I guess you know what that means then don’t you?  I told them that I sure appreciated them offering the building to me but right now, I’m in over my head with the apartments I’m having build over my establishment.  I didn’t want to sound rude and tell them they were trying to unload an overload of problems on me but that’s what it was.

So if you haven’t learned anything else from me, learn that you never look a gift horse in the mouth.  Have it checked thoroughly before you jump on anything.

Now the grandmother of the octuplets speaks out

The grandmother of the octuplets is speaking out now.  She brought up some really good points about the doctors implanting her daughter when she’s not married and has no means of support for these children.  I really hope there is a thorough investigation into this.

The mother of the children has mental issues and that’s obvious to me if not to anyone else.  Her mother even brought up that she’s had issues.  The young woman has a history of depression so what do you think being tied down to a total of 14 children is going to do to her?  It depresses me just thinking about trying to see to it that all of those children have what they need much less anything else.

The whole thing is a mess or a can of worms that’s about to be opened and unfortunately, it’s going to hurt women that desperately want a child and can’t have them on their own I’m afraid.  But there needs to be some sort of regulation to keep something like this from ever happening again.  She should not have been allowed to create more children if she already had 6 at home.  There has to be a cut off point somewhere.  Besides, where did she get the money to pay for all of the children to be implanted like she did if she’s not working?  What a mess.

Octuplet Mom speaks

Well she finally speaks which I knew she would.  They must have finally met her price.  She said that growing up as an only child made her want a ‘huge family’.  Well that’s what she has for sure now.

The Southern California woman who gave birth to octuplets last week told TODAY’s Ann Curry in an exclusive interview that growing up as an only child, she had always dreamed of having “a huge family.” She also denied charges that she was irresponsible to have so many babies – especially with six other children already at home.

“People feel, you know, this woman is being completely irresponsible and selfish to bring these children in the world without a clear source of income and enough help to raise them,” Curry told Nadya Suleman in a segment that aired Friday on TODAY. “The world outside is saying, ‘What are you doing?’ ”

“I know I’ll be able to afford them when I’m done with my schooling,” the 33-year-old single mom replied. Calm, poised and articulate in the glare of the media spotlight, Suleman added: “If I was just sitting down watching TV and not being as determined as I am to succeed and provide a better future for my children, I believe that would be considered, to a certain degree, selfish.”

I still say the doctors should have to claim some responsibility in this case.  They should have to help support these 8 babies for sure so the rest of us don’t have to.  Was she selfish?  Who am I to say who couldn’t have children of her own?  There are so many children out there without families, why didn’t she adopt?  Then no one could have called her selfish for sure.

I hate snakes

One of my least favorite of Gods creatures are snakes.  One things for sure, I am glad I wasn’t living when this thing was around, contrary to what some believe.  They found this thing in northeastern Columbia.  It can stay there for all I care.

Never mind the 40-foot snake that menaced Jennifer Lopez in the 1997 movie “Anaconda.” Not even Hollywood could match a new discovery from the ancient world. Fossils from northeastern Colombia reveal the biggest snake ever discovered: a behemoth that stretched 42 to 45 feet long, reaching more than 2,500 pounds.

“This thing weighs more than a bison and is longer than a city bus,” enthused snake expert Jack Conrad of the American Museum of Natural History in New York, who was familiar with the find. “It could easily eat something the size of a cow. A human would just be toast immediately.”

“If it tried to enter my office to eat me, it would have a hard time squeezing through the door,” reckoned paleontologist Jason Head of the University of Toronto Missisauga.

Actually, the beast probably munched on ancient relatives of crocodiles in its rain forest home some 58 million to 60 million years ago, he said.

That’s one huge snake.  Here’s a picture of one of it’s bones too.  YUCK!!!!!!!!!

Mother of the octuplets

I almost fell out of my chair when I found out that the mother that just gave birth to a litter of babies already had 6 kids at home.  All of her children are from planting fertilized eggs in her womb.  I can’t remember what that’s called but you know what I mean anyway.

I have heard of people that are addicted to plastic surgery but this is a young woman that seems to be addicted to having more and more babies.  He has a set of 2 year old twins at home and the oldest kid she has is only 7 years old.  That means she has a total of 14 children.  I don’t think she’s ever been married either.  My question is what man would want to marry a young woman with 14 children?  None that I know of.  What a mess she has made for herself but most of all, for her children.

I need to find out what washer this was

I was thinking about buying washer and dryers for the apartments but after reading this, I need to know what type of washing machine this was so I don’t buy one of them.  I’ll sure pay more attention to where the start button is when I do buy one.  I read this on msnbc.msn.com:

A 4-year-old girl in Southern California died after she climbed into a washing machine that began tumbling when her toddler brother hit its simple push-button start.

Orange County Sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino said Kayley Ishii apparently climbed into the front-loading washer Monday afternoon. Her 15-month-old brother either bumped or pushed the button to start the machine.

Amormino said the machine’s controls were only 20 inches from the floor and the start switch was a simple push button. The girl was in the water-filled, tumbling machine for at least two minutes before her mother found her.

An autopsy Tuesday found Kayley died of blunt force trauma and the death was ruled accidental.

If I was that child’s mother, you can bet I would be straight to a lawyers office and sue the manufacturers for all they are worth for wrongful death.

Life sure is funny sometimes

You know how you can be just going along minding your own business when all of a sudden something comes along and changes everything?  Do you know what I mean?  Well that’s sort of what happened today.  Here I am trying to get these four apartments finished so the people that work for me can move in and what do you know, a whole apartment building was offered to me to buy.

Now I’m not talking a bunch of money either.  I’m talking cheap, as in thousands and not millions like you would think.  Well I’m thinking about it but the first thing I’m going to do is have someone really check the place out and make sure it’s not someone else’s problem they are trying to put off on me.

In my life

I’ve learned…. That the best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person.

I’ve learned…. That when you’re in love, it shows.

I’ve learned…. That just one person saying to me, ‘You’ve made my day!’ makes my day.

I’ve learned…. That having a child fall asleep in your arms is one of the most peaceful feelings in the world.

I’ve learned…. That being kind is more important than being right.

I’ve learned…. That you should never say no to a gift from a child.

I’ve learned…. That I can always pray for someone when I don’t have the strength to help him in some other way.

I’ve learned…. That no matter how serious your life requires you to be, everyone needs a friend to act goofy with.

I’ve learned…. That sometimes all a person needs is a hand to hold and a heart to understand.

I’ve learned…. That simple walks with my father around the block on summer nights when I was a child did wonders for me as an adult.

This is handy

This works great !!! Good for when all your family is together. The best part is that no one has to wait for their special omelet !!! Have guests write their name on a quart-size Ziploc freezer bag with permanent marker. Crack 2 eggs (large or extra-large) into the bag (not more than 2) shake to combine them. Put out a variety of ingredients such as: cheeses, ham, onion, green pepper, tomato, hash browns, salsa, etc. Each guest adds prepared ingredients of choice to their bag and shake.

Make sure to get the air out of the bag and zip it up. Place the bags into rolling, boiling water for exactly 13 minutes. You can usually cook 6-8 omelets in a large pot. For more, make another pot of boiling water.

Open the bags and the omelet will roll out easily. Be prepared for everyone to be amazed. Nice to serve with fresh fruit and coffee cake; everyone gets involved in the process and a great conversation piece.

Imagine having these ready the night before, and putting the bag in boiling water while you get ready. And in 13 minutes, you got a nice omelet for a quick breakfast!!! I think my kids are going to like this! I used tomatoes, ham, green onions, cheddar cheese and mushrooms in this one! MMMMMMMM…MMMMMMM good!!! Try it….it really works!!!
