Tough Times Ahead

November 8th 2009 18:10
No matter how much we hear that the economy is recovering, the truth is that it is going to get worst before it gets better. It's really tough to say where we are heading but recovery seems to be slow and unemployment is still on the rise. Many of us are struggling trying to really save much, while others of us are living paycheck to paycheck.

In these tough economic times, people have cut their expenses to the bare minimum and continue to fall behind. In my State, I actually see the price of everything on the rise and taxed to the point that even the middle class struggles. Food, rent, utilities, gas, travel, etc., all seem to be rising or fluctuating, making people already thinking about Holiday travel and meals in a frugal manner.

People should keep in mind that these financial woes are worldwide and are not just confined to your backyard!

2010 is going to be a rough year for the economy. I think we need to learn to live below our financial means. We need to remember this to know where I am coming from!

Police Psychic = A Good Laugh

November 8th 2009 15:05
I often have to laugh at the gullible that believe in the dribble put out by psychics. Most use tricks while others don't know what they are talking about. Their bottom line is to get the 'believers' to continually open their wallets and purses.

I've seen people's marriages, lives and finances go down the tubes because they put their faith in a psychic's prediction. One should face the reality of the whole situation...if psychics are as good as they claim their make-believe powers to be, they would be rich winning all sorts of lotteries and know what stocks to buy. Instead they prey on the weak-minded because they have standards on using the stock market or lottery for personal gains!

It's a sad state of affairs when police manpower and resources are wasted on psychic predictions. This all happens at the expense of the hard working taxpayer. A lion, a horse and a fox lead to a wild goose chase! A dead man's ghost contacted a group of psychics to say that he was forced to drink petrol and bleach. The coroner's office did not find this to be true.

A good laugh is always a good thing!

Peta Watch: Protest 134870

November 4th 2009 19:27
If you think about it, it was just a matter of time before Peta would be involved with this one. An Oregon wildlife park is using elephants to wash cars. It seems that The Flintstones were from Oregon. Believe it or not, Peta doesn't have a problem with that.

The problem is that the elephants are being exploited and bullhooks are being used to train them. I have to say that I can go either way on this one!

Celebrity Overload

November 1st 2009 19:29
What some people won't do to hog up the limelight from people who will never be famous simply boggles the mind of most common folk!

By now we all have heard about the balloon boy saga which suddenly seems to have faded into obscurity. This is probably because of the criminal charges that are being filed against the parents. The ends that the means had to justify is that the dad was in search of a celebrity status through a publicity stunt that went array when the young son, Falcon, sold them out

Alzheimer's Link to Herpes

October 25th 2009 18:45
A current controversial study is linking Alzheimer's disease to cold sores, a virus related to herpes. If this study is proven true, it may be a shocking find linking Alzheimer's as a disease that can be spread from human to human.

Evidence seems to be mounting to prove this as yet another theory that may help find a cure for a mind losing disease.

Strict Sharia Laws in Saudi Arabia

October 25th 2009 18:09
Saudi Arabia has a strict Sharia Law that adheres to Islamic beliefs and teachings. Some TV shows have become so Westernized that the moral police is working overtime. A controversial Arab show can have consequences for a man who brags about his sex life. The female journalist may also be punished for her involvement, if any. She has been sentenced to 60 lashes.

I've written about it in the past, and this is yet another double-standard on the part of our 'ally' Saudi Arabia. Especially when it comes to women's rights. It is obvious that a woman will never have rights in Saudi Arabia home of Mecca. Although many Arab and Islamic believers declare equality of the sexes, most still adhere to the belief of women being inferior.

Disney Refunds for Gullible Parents

October 25th 2009 16:55
What parent wouldn't want their child to become a genius at 5 years-old? Is it any wonder that even a reputable company may find a way to market a pipe dream to this effect? Disney once marketed a false hope to make your little infant or toddler a genius before the age of 5.

They showed 2 year-olds reading at a high school level. Baby Einstein was flying off the shelves as dumb parents wanted a highly intelligent child and progeny. As it turns out the product did not increase a baby or toddlers intelligence, but served as the perfect babysitter

The Celebrity Burglaries

October 25th 2009 16:03
Since hearing that a couple of guys were busted in a string of celebrity burglaries, it has surfaced that the crimes were carried out by a teen gang. The gang was composed of a celebrity-obsessed group of rich reform-school girls. Some of their famous burglaries include Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan to name a couple. Paris made it easy by leaving her door open.

One of the gang members is the sister of Playboy model, Tess Taylor. Since they are involved in another Reality Show that caters to the brainless no-lives, cameras followed as sis bailed out her sibling gang member.

The Cooling of Global Warming

October 25th 2009 15:21
I have to keep repeating myself and telling my stance on global warming. I believe that it is a natural phenomenon and man has very little, if anything, to do with it. Therefore, man cannot control it. Through history, science, and just talking to old farmers,you sometimes find that earth tends to regulate itself without man's help.

I spoke about how in the 1800s the earth's temperatures dropped due to a couple of massive volcanic eruptions in Indonesia. In the early and mid 1900s we thought we were heading towards another Ice Age. Now, much like the weather, we are complaining that it is too hot

on Try This Buttery Treat for Your Pancreas

October 11th 2009 15:55
OK, I've refrained from buying avocados recently, but now I need to buy them and consume them at least a few times a week! I've had acquaintances die of pancreatic cancer recently, so this definitely helps!

Thanx katyzzz!

Thanx.

That means, sorry to say it, British news is nothing but tabloid trash.

This is the second time Brit papers have been proven wrong, and I will no longer rely on this news source.

on Multitasking Is a Big Fat Lie

September 25th 2009 15:29
Thanks for finally saying it. If I attempt multitasking, I get stressed or retain very little of what I read. Usually the tasks are not done right, either!

on I Love New York

September 21st 2009 17:28
Unfortunately, most only look at The City as the only NY and overlook the STATE as a whole. That's an unfortunate misfortune for the beauty of Upstate as opposed to the Zoo or City.

NYC does not speak for the rest of NYS but unfortunately the City is a tourist trap that reflects on the rest of us. The backwoods of Upstate NY holds treasures often overlooked by the rubes and tourists.

Check out the Catskills and Adirondacks. Check this out. I could give you a list of I LOVE NY activities that don't involve the CITY, but why bother? Most tourists and rubes think NY CITY is the image of NY State. It isn't!

Check out the official site, get a clue, then get back to me!

on The RULES Of AIR TRAVEL

September 17th 2009 16:27
This a funny post. You might want to add that some airlines give incentives to employees for on-time departures, which means that some gate agents slam the door before the scheduled departure!

on Green Hornet's New Villian

September 15th 2009 18:12
I was a big fan of The Green Hornet in the US, but it wasn't a comedy. It started Bruce Lee's career in the 60's. Ahhh but I digress and I wish this Aussie show was in the US!

on Who is the ultimate James Bond?

September 15th 2009 17:51
Ooohhhh, oohhh, Mr. Nice Guy, I know a bit of theories about this one!

The jest is that it depends on what childhood James Bond you were influenced by! Sean Connery was the baby-boomer's choice...guilty as charged! Roger Moore was an easy transition as he had a Sean magnetism for the next generation. The others seem like jokes and farces to me.
