For Crying out loud……………really??

I find it truly distubing that I am living in a courntry full of people enamored with the likes of Honey Boo Boo.  This child is nothing but a spoiled, ill-mannered, in-bred brat. I don’t get it. She’s truly obnoxious and offensive. Talk about dumbing down America. This kinda garbage should never hit the air waves.  All “reality” shows should be taken off of every channel.  It’s scripted, over dramatized, narcissistic manure, at best. I’d take Snooki any day over the Big Boo Boo. And that is truly sad.  Luckily, I don’t have to watch either.  I’ll just turn me on some Robot Chicken.  Now that’s entertainment.

Gone but not forgotten. Thank you.

 The most beautiful things in life are most often the simplest.  To overlook simplicity is to be denied the chance to experience true, God given, consistent beauty.  A beauty we could only hope to possess for ourselves.

I'm going straight to Hell...

Okay, I'm horrible.  Lord, I apologize. 
I'm sitting here reading about three gay men who are hanged in Iran-which is totally not cool.  I'm thinking, this is really not fair and read on with the article.  Okay, so, because the story was such a downer, I chose to see what I saw, so, for those who are easily offended, please sign off now and don't read any further.  I still want you to like me.
Okay, so I'm reading this story and they mention a penal code within Sharia law.  Penal code.....come on, ya'll.....can't help but giggle at that one.  A penal code for sodomy....I'm serious.....you're giggling..........yeah, yeah you are.  Heh, heh, they said penal..heh, heh.  Okay, well, I'm giggling.  Not because these men died, that sucks, but because I'm immature and need to get out more.  I am going STRAIGHT to hell. Uh boy.  Lord, did I say I apologize?

Goodbye, Aunt Louie...

I wasn’t expecting to hear that you’d gone.  I guess I just thought, you’d always be there.  It’s been so long since I’d seen you.  I always enjoyed when you visited.  You never changed.  In all my years, every time I saw you, you sounded, looked and acted the same.  Always very soft spoken, always cheerful and happy, always looking to have fun, always calm and rational, and always the same hair-do.  : )  You were a woman of many talents.  Very tough woman. Raised a family, worked a full time job and could tear a carburetor apart and put it back together with your eyes closed. My daughter was fascinated by the stories she heard of Aunt Louie and wanted so much to meet you.  She met you when she was an infant, but she doesn’t remember you at all.  And that breaks my heart.  She should have known you.  She would have loved you.  Everybody did.  My grandfather always spoke fondly of his sister Lois, better known as “Louie”.  You always seemed to enjoy the time with your family.  And you kept Mom entertained with your weekly telephone calls chalk full of gossip and funny stories.  Whatever will Mom do now?  What will any of us do without our Aunt Louie?  Keep you in our memories and hearts, there you will be alive forever, beaming that Louie smile.  Now you can be with your parents, your brothers and sister that you missed so much.  It’s time for us to let you go.  You’ve earned your journey to Heaven.  Thank you for being who you were.  You will be greatly missed, crying as I write this.  I can see you now, sitting with them, all of them, catching up, just as it should be.  Goodbye Aunt Louie.  You will not be forgotten.  Goodbye, Aunt Louie. Goodbye. XOXO

Lord Stanley

Being the hockey fan that I am, let me just CONGRATULATE the BOSTON BRUINS for winning the coveted LORD STANLEY'S CUP.  What a great series of hockey.  Some hard hittin' goin' on all around.  Boston had me worried there for a while, but they came back with a vengeance and truly earned the prize.  And I was also glad to see goaltender Tim Thomas get that game 7 shutout.  Especially against Vancouver  and IN THEIR BARN!! Nice!
We also got to see what great folks live up North o' the border too.  Booing and carrying on.  A litte disrespectful, dontcha think??  And how's about them post-game riots in the streets?  Saw on the wire that it took cops 4 hours to disperse the rowdy crowd and 9 police officers were injured.  Guess it sucks to be a Canucks fan today.  Glad I'm not one. : P
Again, a big CONGRATS to the Boston Bruins, the newest Stanley Cup Champions. 
Too bad you couldn't get it done for Bourque.  But that's okay, we took care of that for ya.  <wink, wink>
Seriously, enjoy gentlemen.  You earned it.
