Blogger's Block
I just haven't had anything good to say. I was right about the JonBenet thing, no shit—the fuckwits in Boulder should hire me I would have saved their taxpayers a fortune. Bet they'll try to get California to foot the bill now. I say send him back, let him go to prison in Thailand, after all, it’s only a matter of time before he'd be caught trying to get a little girl to jerk him. I don’t know what else has been going on in the world because anytime I turn on the news I get depressed. The kids have been fighting and Rainbird is really pissing me off lately, I don't cook well enough, I don't clean well enough, his whites aren’t white enough...You get the idea.
Kids go back to school next week and I'm making myself a wreck worrying about poor Fredo and how he'll do this year. I know I should have sent him to summer school, but we were quite busy...well until this month. It was at a different school and I was worried about him taking the bus alone, also it was a long day for him. Next year he'll be older and if he has to go...so be it. Or I'll just send him to The Sylvan Learning Center myself.
I sent Piss-boy to summer school once and he learned NOTHING.
I have been a little surprised to see all the Mel jokes flying around Hollywood lately. Pretty strange, since I'd think they’d be all forgiving and shit with him.

Time Is Not On My Side
I've been super busy these last few weeks of summer so finally I have time to comment thoroughly on some of the things going on in the world during my absence from blogging.
Sure He's a Sicko…But…(Or Detective Work By The Three Stooges aka, Boulder Police)
John Mark Karr is a sicko but I really don't think he killed JonBenet. I'm sorry but that's my gut reaction to the whole thing. I think he's a whacko and the fact that the Boulder PD didn’t talk to his family, after he'd been taken into custody there in that child porn mecca, is ridiculous. Since he was wanted anyway in CA for kiddy porn, it’s a good thing he’s being brought back to this country but I doubt he’s the one that killed that little girl 10 years ago.
Why do I feel this way? He’s walking and chatting with the press offering all kinds of details about this and that but offers nothing that he couldn't have already known. He won’t give the important details, yet he'll say that he's not innocent. I think he is infatuated with the case and wishes he were the one. Coupled with the fact his ex wife, who he married when she was just 16, says she's got proof he couldn't have been in Colorado at the time. It's not like Alabama and Colorado are just a short drive away in the middle of winter.
Before anyone jumps on me…his ex-wife has NO reason to protect him since she's the one that got him busted for kiddy porn in the first place.
I See Jail Time
Haley Joel Osment was arrested quietly and booked for DUI and procession of marijuana last month and is scheduled to turn himself in. His agent and gaggle of attorneys are working with law enforcement to get most of the charges dropped. So, like anyone that qualifies as a "Hollywood" star, he won’t serve a day in the big house despite the fact his blood alcohol level was 0.15 and the legal limit for someone OVER the age of 21 in California is 0.08. We'll have to wait and see if he'll also be charged with California law of driving while underage with a blood alcohol level higher than .05, which is a felony for minors. Then we'll have to wait and see if his driver's license will be revoked until he’s an adult, along with a 5K fine, and jail time…not to mention compulsory AA meetings. Will justice be done? I only have one other question, why was he driving 1995 Saturn?
Mad Mel
Mel Gibson, who I have come to believe really is a racist and anti-Semitic, has agreed to attend AA meetings. Well, actually anyone really familiar with California law knows that AA, or some type of alcohol rehab are REQUIRED of anyone arrested for DUI, and even those ultimately charged with reckless driving. So big fucking deal for doing what he should anwyay.
Nice try Mel reps.
Will The Peace Last?
Between Hezbollah and Israel? No. Though some jackass news agencies actually ask, who won?
I'll be Back on Monday. Enjoy the weekend!

Where Have I Been?
I know I know…it's summer and I've been busy getting a tooth pulled, recovering and discovering why I feel so fucking poor all the time. We’re spending way too much fucking money on food; in fact we spend more on food each month than ALL our other expenses combined. That's just wrong and I'm going to start really watching how much I spend, use coupons and shop sales. I'd like to say this is blip, but it's not it's been going on since we moved here.
In Other News Around The Globe
The fucking Al Qaeda terrorists are fucking with us again and this time, it's personal, since they are telling me my makeup and toiletries are a threat to national security. I mean really now, what's next? Instead of looking at products, isn't it time that put aside this political correctness that has us gripped by our collective throats and start profiling PEOPLE?
Seriously what will happen when these suicidal fuckwits figure out a way to make a bomb out of suntan lotion and slather it all over their bodies? Then detonate it by uttering a word or phrase? I guess then our government will ban passengers from passenger airlines. Better still, why not just ban luggage of all kinds from planes?
And what gives with our media? Why must they ask the most retarded questions of people? For example, I was watching a cable news organization and this reporter was interviewing a James Bond type of guy from the UK. He was explaining how they found these bastards and our media guy asked him if he was surprised to learn of tentative connections to Al Qaeda. James Bond literally blinked for a second and then replied, "No, we weren’t at all surprised." OMFUCKINGOD. Then another channel, was asking if anyone was surprised that they would try a dry run? Another Duh from me. Think about it…remember grammar school and fire drills? You’d do them often right? And why do you think that was? Uh huh.
Then later the big discussion of the "What If" scenarios all involving Norad (who also tracks Santa) shooting down a commercial airliner and asking if they could do it. **Ranter Sighs** Here’s a scarier "what if" for ya, what if the objective isn't to fly a plane into a building, after all it's been done, but to instead just blow the fucker up and destroy the already fragile airline industry, and make people afraid to fly? Think about that for a second, they wanted to do this on 10 airplanes all going to the US and mostly US carriers. All the media can focus on is what were the targets…What if the plane was the ONLY target?
