Wicked Weekend!

Friday night I went (finally) to see Wicked with my mom and aunt. It was absolutely amazing, there are no words to describe how awesome Wicked was! Maybe I will be cheesy and say (I am sure you've heard it before) that Wicked was wicked! We decided to go out to dinner before hand and my mom and aunt picked Bennigan's, now I like Bennigan's and all, but really out of all the places to eat in Chicago, we picked Bennigan's??? I was a bit disappointed, but nonetheless it was a great meal. Our waiter was dumber than my left pinky finger, but he was handsome so my mom and aunt decided that it was okay to flirt with him. I, however; was put off by his stupidity and he had the nerve to card me...um, I am with two old horny ladies, I think I am old enough to drink...thanks! It was a good time!



So, back to Wicked...the cast was amazing and since I have dorky show-choir friends, I already knew the words to the songs! I was so tempted to sing along, because that is what I like to do, but I resisted the urge and kept to myself. When I was like 3 or 4, I watched The Wizard of Oz for the 1st time and I cried when the witch melted...I liked her and felt sorry for her...and now I know that my tears were justifiable and acceptable! I was not an evil cold rotten bitch at the age of 3, I was just really in tune with Elphaba's upsetting past! I knew she was good at heart! Elphaba by far out shined the rest of the cast with her amazing voice! The set was amazing overall one of my favorite plays by far, along with Phantom of the Opera, Mama Mia and Rent.



Wicked is at the Oriental Theatre which is one of the most beautiful theatres with a very ornate Oriental theme. After the play let out and we were being herded towards the door a few older woman were talking about how the play was awful and the singing sounded more like, "screeching and screaming". They also said that Glinda (aka Galinda) was too "bubbly" and "annoying". Um, hello, did you not catch on to the fact that she was supposed to be that way??? Dumb old people piss me off!


(Dee Roscioli - Elphaba)

I was going to buy the soundtrack but I am stingy and decided I would get it later because $20.00 was too much. And then on Saturday, I was like, "fuck...I really need to sing Wicked!" So, I headed to Target and found it on sale for $9.99 - what a deal! It is the original Broadway cast versions, so I don't like it as much as the cast from Chicago, but it will do!

I would really like to read the book, so I am hoping Sarah will let me borrow it!

Why I Hate Clowns

A professional clown was ordered to stand trial Friday on sexual assault and battery charges. Ronald E. Schroeder, who performs as Silly the Clown, is being tried on 32 counts, including two counts of second-degree sexual assault of an unconscious victim, 27 counts of capturing an image of nudity, illegally accessing computer data, battery and possession of a switchblade. A child pornography charge will be added from findings on his personal computer.

The domestic violence charge alleges Schroeder threw a woman against a wall and stuck his fingers up the her nostrils "until her nose started to bleed." The sexual assault charges accuse him of assaulting the woman after she passed out after a night out. They also accuse Schroeder of taking numerous pictures of her while she was nude and passed out and while he was sexually assaulting her.

I hate clowns, the Easter Bunny, Santa and any other character dressed up as a perv! I never want them sticking their fingers up my nose...I know it's not funny (well kind of) but why the fuck would someone stick their fingers in someone else's nose???

How Much?

Meet the Tiffany Novo, their newest design, a dazzling creation of spirit, fire and style! The things I could do with that kind of money!!!

Crosstown Classic

Fuck, I hate baseball season! I come from a family who is obsessed with baseball. My father is an asshole Soxs fan and my mom is a over-the-top stuck up Cubs fan. My sister Maggie is a Yankees fan (she thinks Jeter is hot) and my other sister Emily is a Cardinals fan. I have opted to just not like baseball. I can't stand the constant trash talking back and forth about Cubs vs. Sox, who has the better park, bitch this and moan that. I avoid my family as much as possible during baseball season. I do like to go to the games because you can eat ballpark hot dogs, drink beer and watch people get all angry - I don't care who wins as long as it is a Chicago team, even then I don't actually care. So this weekend is the Crosstown Classic which means the Sox play the Cubs and the whole fucking city divides and makes a big stink about it....get over it already!

Enough Already

Jerry Seinfeld is dressed as a bee during a publicity stunt for the film "Bee Movie." Why can't Jerry just go away. I never thought the TV show Seinfeld was funny, I never understood why people flocked over him like he was God's gift to comedy, I just don't get Seinfeld! He is so annoying, I hate his grating, whiny voice. Am I the only person that feels this way???

ANTM

America's Next Top Model ended last night...sad sad sad! I love the show but was kind of disappointed in the end. I didn't love any of the girls this season and the closest one for me to love was Renee - 2nd runner up....damnit! Jaslene won and I am only semi-happy about this. Basically, I wanted anyone to win but Natasha! I fucking hated that girl with a passion.

Jaslene is good for high couture fashion and "fierce" photos, but as far as Cover Girl goes, she just doesn't have it. She also can't speak well...she sounds like a deaf chick with a ghetto accent. It is awful and Cover Girl would be stupid to air her commercials.

I do prefer Jaslene over...


The fucking stupidest girl in ANTM history. She is a cute, sweet Russian girl purchased by an American man with a small dick and a big wallet. English is her 2nd language so she had no clue what was going on, couldn't follow directions and acted like everything was praise when it was really criticism. The judges thought she had a great spirit and nice features...I agree she is a pretty girl, but she is so fucking slow. Her "great spirit" comes from lack of understanding. She looks life a fucking monkey without professional make-up and hair. I could not stand her, and either could the girls on the show...and NO it is NOT jealousy! Yes, she is a pretty girl, but fuck me, she is frustrating! Go try out for Russia's Next Top Model! And stop trying to dignify the fact that you were a mail-order-bride...that ain't classy honey!

Would You Like Ganga With That?

A 17 year old McDonald's employee is facing drug charges after hiding marijuana in a Happy Meal. Ottawa Police Chief said a man and his three children went through a McDonald's drive-through Monday to order Happy Meals. One of the children, an 8-year-old girl, found a lighter, pipe, and bag of marijuana in her Happy Meal. Her father went to the police. Brandon Scott of Ottawa, was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia, thanks to the help of the McDonald's owners.

Two In The Pink - One In The Stink

Here's a picture from last Friday's Girls Night Out for Ashley's birthday! Visit Sarah's blog for a few more pics! From left to right: Jeanette, Me, Sarah and Ashley! We are also displaying our new gang sign (Ashley's is a little "spaced"...so she may have one extra hole, we will need to explore more)! I do think that the man at the table over enjoyed our sign though!

Sex Toys Banned

Sherri Williams, the owner of adult stores in Alabama, stands before the U.S. Supreme Court. She is asking the court to throw out a state ban on selling sex toys, calling it an unconstitutional intrusion into the bedroom. This is just insane, how can the government ban sex toys. The ban is not just for twisted sex toys like the one used in the movie Seven, but it is banning dildos, vibrators and other sex toy products. Courts are upholding the ban as constitutional and saying "the state's interest in preserving and promoting public morality provides a rational basis for the challenged statute." Alabama is one of a handful of states, including Texas and Georgia, with laws restricting sales of sex toys. The Alabama "anti-obscenity" law bans the sale of sex toys but not their possession. Can the government worry about other things besides sex toys; perhaps gun control, education, drunk driving, gang violence, unemployment, health care, and multiple other "big" problems in the United States. We spend so much time and money on trivial bullshit while our children are receiving piss-poor schooling and are being gunned down by gang-bangers. Ugh!

Leonard Pitts on Paris Hilton

Actions have consequences: Isn't that a sermon every good parent has, at one time or another, preached to his or her child?

Are you heartbroken that Paris Hilton has been sentenced to jail? Me neither. I take it as welcome evidence that occasionally karma gets it right and the universe slaps those most in need of slapping. Rarely has comeuppance been more desperately deserved. Not just because she is a famous-for-nothing socialite, nor just because she is an empty vessel inexplicably adored by people for whom vacuousness is apparently synonymous with worth. No, comeuppance is needed here because the woman embodies such smug certainty that the rules do not apply to her. More to the point, because of the utter contempt she oozes for those who are not like her, i.e., not monied, privileged, pretty, white and heedless.

I didn't get the depth of that contempt until the online release earlier this year of a video that shows Hilton dancing at a party. At one point on the clip, she describes some unnamed unfortunate as a "fucking hoodlum, broke, poor public school bitch from, like, Compton." At another point, Hilton describes herself and a friend as "like two niggers." At yet another point, she calls someone a "faggot."

Don Imus got fired for less.

But for Hilton, it was a one-day story. Fox did not cancel the "reality" show she does with Nicole Richie. No sponsors are known to have pulled their ads. No coalition of blacks, gays and Comptonites demanded her head.

No, she skated away scot-free without really answering for her words or even being questioned for them. Which seems the story of her life. And that's troubling, given that Hilton is regarded as a role model, someone worthy of emulation, by so many young girls.

Your actions have consequences: Isn't that a sermon every good parent has, at one time or another, preached to his or her child? If you dance to the music, you've got to pay the piper: Isn't that a cliche we keep on speed dial?

So what do you say to the child about these people whose actions "don't" seem to have consequences, who dance to the music and then leave the piper hanging because they are celebrities, able to do the distasteful and the reprehensible and get away with it because the little people love them?

The little people need to wake up and find somebody worthy of their love. Hilton is not. A life of privilege, pampering and insulation from consequences has left her a moral cripple, and there's nothing admirable in that. Paris Hilton is a snotty child so besotted with herself, so clueless about the rules that govern life here on planet Earth that you almost -- but only almost -- felt sorry for her in reading news reports about her sentencing.

She was pulled over three times for driving on a suspended license while on probation for drunken driving? She showed up to court 15 minutes late? Did she really tell the judge she can't be bothered to look at her mail because "I have people who do that for me"? When asked if she had understood the terms of her probation, did she really say, "I just sign what people tell me to sign. I'm a very busy person"?

Not anymore, she's not. The judge gave her 45 days but her actual stay in jail may be reduced because of overcrowding. She'll be doing her time at a women's facility in Lynwood, a city just north of Compton. And isn't that poetic justice. No, I have no illusion that any of this will damage Hilton's popularity; cluelessness is part of her appeal.

Still, as a parent, a person and a public school graduate, I hope the kids who admire her are taking note: Consequences may arrive late, but they almost always arrive. Something for Hilton to consider as she spends her days in jail wearing an orange jumpsuit and taking group showers in a little place I like to call reality. It couldn't happen to a more deserving person.

*** I thought this was a fantastic, well written article by Leonard Pitts, a syndicated columnist based in Washington: Tribune Media Services. I can't believe that Paris Hilton's fan club started a petition to send to the Arnold Schwarzenegger- If he pardon's her, I will never watch The Terminator again! "If the late former President Gerald Ford could find it in his heart to pardon the late Former President Richard Nixon after his mistake[s], we undeniably support Paris Hilton being pardoned," the petition states. They have over 30,000 signatures for this petition...do these people even know who Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford are???

For Don and Josue!

Don and Josue's new favorite show Heroes cast.

Next season you boys should do Monday night Heroes dates!

Then Sarah and I can do something fun! He he he!

Sexism

Is Google's search engine sexist?

No, says the Internet giant -- despite some awfully quirky evidence pointing to the contrary -- we're just, well ... it's complicated.

Google appears to discriminate against women when you use it to search for certain phrases and word combinations. For example if you Google the phrase "she invents," the Web site spits out the suggestion: "Did you mean: he invents." The same thing happens with many other two-word pairings such as "she owns," "she intelligent" and "she responsible." Conversely you don't receive the suggestion "Did you mean: she invents" when you search for the phrase "he invents." But the best was that if you Google "she" with many words stereotypically associated with women -- such as "cooks," "cleans," or "mops" -- the search engine does not offer up: "Did you mean: he cooks" or "he cleans" or "he mops." Oddly enough, Google did seem to treat females and males differently when it came to many two-word combinations beginning with either "she" or "he." Including even "she Google."

In a friendly response, a representative said Google was aware of the issue and offered up a not-so-simple explanation for it: "Google develops its own spell-checking algorithms based on sophisticated machine learning methods, using cues from aggregated user input, Web documents, and many other sources," the spokesperson replied via e-mail. "The algorithm provides a 'best-guess' alternative suggestion that we think might improve the search results, and is completely generated without human input. It can be thought of as a suggestion offer, rather than a definitive answer."

Oh, and Google's "sexist" quirk? It doesn't work against women in every case.
For instance, if you search for the word combo "she stupid," it does spit out the reply "Did you mean: he stupid." You also get "Britney Spears" as your first search result. And "Paris Hilton" as your second. So, really, you can't be too hard on Google. After all, it's obviously dead-on with some things.

WTF???

A girl and her grandparents have sued the Chicago Board of Education, alleging that a substitute teacher showed the R-rated film "Brokeback Mountain" in class. The lawsuit claims that Jessica Turner, 12, suffered psychological distress after viewing the movie in her 8th grade class at Ashburn Community Elementary School last year.
The film, which won three Oscars, depicts two cowboys who conceal their homosexual affair. Turner and her grandparents, Kenneth and LaVerne Richardson, are seeking around $500,000 in damages. "It is very important to me that my children not be exposed to this," said Kenneth Richardson, Turner's guardian. "The teacher knew she was not supposed to do this." According to the lawsuit filed Friday in Cook County Circuit Court, the video was shown without permission from the students' parents and guardians. The substitute asked a student to shut the classroom door, saying: "What happens in Ms. Buford's class stays in Ms. Buford's class," according to the lawsuit. Richardson said his granddaughter was traumatized by the movie and had to undergo psychological treatment and counseling. In 2005, Richardson complained to school administrators about reading material that he said included curse words. "This was the last straw," he said. "I feel the lawsuit was necessary because of the warning I had already given them on the literature they were giving out to children to read. I told them it was against our faith."

Are they serious??? How much money are they suing for because the kid watched "Brokeback Mountain"??? If they win this suit, I am moving out of the country! Please tell me what kind of psychological treatment does one need after watching a movie? I can guarantee that the girl has already done much worse than what happened in that movie and could teach the cowboys a few things. And the grandparents are justifying this suit because of the "warning" the school was given about the literature used in school. I have a problem with censoring literature in schools, I believe that children need to be exposed to all types of literature, even if it includes "curse words" and racist slang's - some of the best literary works contain these things...If they didn't like that literature, they should have enrolled her in a private school! Ahhhhh...I hate people! I think I might steal Sarah's Blog Idea of a
"Dead To Me List"!

Can I Sign Your Cast?

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands -- Dutch customs police turned a fake break into a real bust Friday when they stopped a woman trying to smuggle 3.3 pounds of cocaine into the country in a plaster cast on her leg. Police spokesman Rob Stenacker said the woman, whose name was not released, acted nervously while her passport was being checked and agents became suspicious about the thickness of the cast. "She had two different letters from a doctor about her leg, and both of them appeared fake," he said. A sniffer dog quickly indicated that the cast contained more than plaster. The woman was taken to hospital, where an X-ray revealed the drugs but no fractures. Stenacker said the woman, from the Latin American country of Suriname, was arrested and will face smuggling charges.

Why Couldn't It Be Brad?!?

Universal Pictures has casted Angelina Jolie to star alongside James McAvoy and Morgan Freeman in "Wanted", the graphic novel adaptation to be directed by Timur Bekmambetov (???). The movie will be Angelina’s next role since baby, with shooting to begin in Eastern Europe in early May and then in Chicago. I am so lucky because now my life gets to be inconvenienced by this. They will be closing down streets around my work for days at a time. I wouldn't be upset if the chance to see Brad Pitt was possible, but I don't like Angelina. The movie also sounds stupid. It is reminiscent of Lora Croft Tomb Raider - which was a piece of shit.

Here is a sneak peak: McAvoy will play a young man who discovers his father is an assassin, only to learn shortly thereafter that his dad has been murdered. The youth is drafted to follow in his father’s footsteps. Jolie will play an assassin who teaches the ropes to the wannabe killer.

Wow...sounds just great! Thanks Universal Pictures for fucking up my life for another piece of shit, over budgeted disaster!

Puffing Away That PG Rating

The Motion Picture Association of America on Thursday said portrayals of smoking would be considered alongside sex and violence in assessing the suitability of movies for young viewers. Films that appear to glamorize smoking will risk a more restrictive rating, and descriptions of tobacco use will be added to the increasingly detailed advisories that accompany each rated film. Under the new policy, a film’s rating will consider all tobacco use, rather than just teenage smoking, as in the past.

Do you think movies that contain smoking deserve a more restrictive rating?

A New Attitude for the Hip - AKA - Fugly

Alice Roi purse pack, $250.

Kris Van Assche waist pack, $356.

A 3.1 Phillip Lim buckled pouch, $300.

In Australia, they call it a “bum bag.” In France, it’s “le banane.” Apparently much of the world regards the fanny pack, that belted pouch often seen around the large mid-section of unsophisticated (white trash) travelers, as little more than a gag item. I will never be seen wearing a fucking fanny pack...especially not a $300 one!!!

Billboards and Vegans

*** The city of Chicago has taken down a racy billboard that proclaimed "Life is short. Get a divorce." The billboard featured photos of a scantily clad woman and a shirtless man and was an ad for Chicago divorce attorney Corri Fetman. The display drew criticism from some residents in the Rush Street neighborhood and from other lawyers, who say the ad sullies their profession. The billboard was removed a week after it went up after Ald. Burton Natarus (42nd) determined it didn't have a proper permit. Fetman says her billboard was no threat to people in happy marriages. And she says it was taken down without due process. Fetman's law partner, Kelly Garland, added that even people who disliked the billboard should worry about what its removal means for free speech.

- Being an advocate for free speech, I don't think the billboard should have been taken down. It shows the comic side of lawyers, which sometimes is hard to find! I just think it's funny and I don't think it's glamorizing divorce (which is a serious problem)! It's not any worse than the billboards for Diamonds Gentleman's Club.

*** A vegan couple was sentenced Wednesday to life in prison for the death of their malnourished 6-week-old baby boy, who was fed a diet largely consisting of soy milk and apple juice. Superior Court Judge L.A. McConnell imposed the sentences on Jade Sanders, 27, and Lamont Thomas, 31. Their son, Crown Shakur, weighed just 3 1/2 pounds when he died of starvation on April 25, 2004. The couple was found guilty May 2 of malice murder, felony murder, involuntary manslaughter and cruelty to children. A jury deliberated about seven hours before returning the guilty verdicts. Defense lawyers said the first-time parents did the best they could while adhering to the lifestyle of vegans, who typically use no animal products. They said Sanders and Thomas did not realize the baby, who was born at home, was in danger until minutes before he died.

- What is wrong with people??? Their lawyers said, "they did the best they could" - um...NO, they didn't...babies need to be fed to live!!! I don't know any vegans, but are doctors on their list of things to avoid too? There is not doctor in their right mind who would have not admitted this child after that kind of dramatic weight loss or lack of weight gain, they must not be fans of healthcare professionals. This makes me so angry, how stupid can people be?!? How do you not realize that your baby isn't healthy when he weighs only 3 pounds at six weeks old? He must have weighed more at birth, otherwise, he would have still been in the hospital! I am sick to my stomach! They bitch and moan about meat eaters, but they forget about everyone's right to choose their own life style, their baby should have been given that choice.

Frivolous Shit!

Most-Wanted: The Dog!!!

A man who didn't have a will left a $2 million estate, but the most hotly contested item in court has been his golden retriever, Alex. The four-way dispute over the 13-year-old pet was so intense, an attorney was appointed to represent the dog's interest. On Monday, the judge decided the man's divorced parents should split custody, The Commercial Appeal reported."At first glance, the petition seems almost frivolous, but after speaking with all parties, it is evident that this is a highly emotional issue for all involved," said Alex's attorney. Ron Callan Jr., 35, committed suicide on New Year's Day. In the consent order the judge approved, the elder Callan and his ex-wife, Esther Snow Gnall, will trade custody of Alex every two weeks. Both parents also agreed to take the dog to the veterinarian for arthritis treatments and any other needed procedures. Before the agreement was reached, the elder Callan had custody and took Alex to work during the day. The father has cats at home, though, so at night, the dog stayed with Callan Jr.'s former girlfriend, who had known Alex since he was a puppy. The son's fiancee also was interested in Alex, and Gnall had said if she won custody, she would allow the fiancee to spend time with the dog. Royal, the dog's attorney, said he believes all four people love Alex and would take good care of him, but they were using the fight for the dog to punish each other for past transgressions."This case is similar to a bitter custody battle involving children where each party loves the children, but the kids are stuck between two people who cannot coexist," the attorney said in his report. Copyright © 2007, The Associated Press

Are you fucking kidding me! Now, if this was Lassie, then maybe I would understand...but no! These people obviously have too much money, too much time, and too little brain! It's a fucking dog! I can take the $2 million estate off their hands to help heal their wounds, shit, I'd even give them my two dogs!

Derby Hats

I guess wearing lavish hats is a tradition at the Kentucky Derby...um, okay...why?

Here are a few that caught my eye...

I like the hat because its a very artsy picture. Her lipstick matches the rose shade almost perfectly and she looks very sophisticated. I guess I like the picture more than the hat itself.

So, it's not the hat in this picture that grabbed my attention. It's Star Jones and her floppy weird looking boobs. I can't stop looking at them...gross! I also can't take my eyes off of her extremely long fingers and have this mental picture of her gripping Stedman's johnson (wait is Stedman Ophrah's man???)

This is a really ugly hat, however; worn by Jenny McCarthy it looks stunning. She is my favorite celebrity female of all time. I think she is the most gorgeous girl. She is very talented as well: Playboy Playmate (doesn't take talent, just a banging body and a great rack, which she has), a TV host (most fantastic show on MTV years ago), a writer (I think she has written two books) and actress (also doesn't take talent, just a Playboy membership in tow). But that's okay, because I will never stop loving her! I should put my Jenny McCarthy boner away now and move on!

She only wants me for my pimp juice!

I'll let Nelly take this one...

"You actin like you never seen it befo' Like them country boys ain't got no dough Bitch please - GET OUT - but don't you slam that do' DUST YOUR SHOES OFF - befo' you touch that flo' Cause you wanna put your feet on my rug, don'tcha? You really wanna put your feet on my rug, don'tcha? You're in a hurry - SLOW DOWN - and I might letcha touch it You ain't from Russia, so bitch why you rushin'?"

"Pimp juice - oooooooooh-ooooooooh-hoooooooo I think I need to let it loose (might think I need to let it loose) Let her loose, let her loooooose She only want me for my pimp juice (that's all she want me for f'real) Not my pimp juice, I'm talkin new pimp juiceI think I need to cut her loose (it's time for homegirl to recognize) Yes I do, yes I doooooo-hoooo"

Weekend Recap

Friday:

* Worked my butt off at work, for the first time ever at my new job!

* Celebrated Sarah's birthday by going out to dinner at Rockit and then to Howl at the Moon for drinks and music. It was the most fun I have had at a bar in a long time. Howl at the Moon is a dueling piano bar where you make requests and they play them...excellently! My ears are still ringing. It was a good night with my girls! We took the train back and Ashley sat in piss, it was fantastic! Sarah's fiance picked us up from the train and tried to get a foursome going...no such luck my man, he didn't provide my Snickers which is required for group sex!

Saturday:

* Had my first Saturday off of work since like two years and it was excellent. I spent time with Donovan and we went on a Mommy/Son date. Donovan and I decided to celebrate Cinqo di Mayo at Lalo's (Donovan is a quarter Mexican). I had the most wonderful burrito and he ate chicken nuggets and ketchup...I know, not very Mexican, but whatever he's two! Then we watched trains, cars and trucks go by beside the expressway. It was a good day!

* The horse I picked to win in the Kentucky Derby actually won...great job Street Sense! I wish I had actually bet money on it!

Sunday:

* Put in some overtime at work...the extra cash is sweet!

* Went out to dinner with my boys and that's about it! Donovan has a newly required addiction to Shrek so we bought Shrek 2 and I forgot how fucking funny that movie was! I love Donkey!

* Didn't get any action this weekend, fucking Don has pink eye and a severe cold and the medicine is making him drowsy or what not! Sucks! Should have taken up Sarah's fiance on his offer!

Breast Talk

So, during lunch I was trying to decide what to post about this afternoon. After thinking long and hard (no I am not referring to your junk Ratty), and noticing a man staring, I decided on breastfeeding. I am huge advocate for breastfeeding, in fact I feel that a woman should breastfeed her baby unless there is a medical reason why she can't. There is no good reason to not breastfeed. Now, I'm not a crazy La Lecha League member or anything, but it's one of those things that I feel strongly about.

My questions is this...Do men who are not breastfeed as infants stare at woman's tits more than men who were breastfeed?

Here's what I am thinking...all men like boobs...right??? The psychological link is that men are attracted to large breasts because they would be able to provide more milk for their children and ensure survival (back in the day). So are modern day men craving breasts because they weren't breastfeed? Since we no longer have to relay on breast milk for our children's survival, are breasts just becoming unimportant? And will they eventually genetically phase out because there isn't a practical use for boobs anymore (covering with whipped cream isn't practical...FYI)?

Going To Lunch!

I am going to go to lunch now...but I think I will post when I get back! I actually had some work to do this morning, fucking work, interfering with my blogging addiction!

9. If you could go back in time and tell one person off, who would it be and what would you say? I would tell off the girl who caused the car accident I was in a few years ago. She was such a bitch, I had a visibly shattered humerus all twisted and shit and was unable to get out of my car and she was yelling at me to get out of the car...um, hello, you totalled my car and the doors don't work...help me! There are other things she did, but I won't get into that. I would not have very nice things to say to her! I would probably end up killing her so it's best that time travel isn't an option for me.

10. Were you a good student or did you do just enough to get by?
I was both, I did just enough to get by with A's - which wasn't very hard! I never found school challenging.

11. If you could give one piece of advice to someone just starting out on their own, what would you tell them?
Get out of your parents house, never go back and be independent. Find your own way!

12. Are people basically good and honest or are most people opportunistic and predatory?
I think most people are good at heart, but evil things, thoughts, and actions are just too tempting for most peoples will.

13. Is there somebody you wish you could go back and apologize to?
Nope!

For My British Guys!

Britain's Chancellor of the Exchequer Gordon Brown gets tangled up in netting from balloons which were released during the opening of Westfield School in Sheffield.

So guys, tell me is he a good egg or a bad egg?

He looks kind of like a doofus, but embarrasing shit happens!

Bitch and Bone

He just won...you don't need to tell me that...

I can tell by the massive boner in his shorts!

Madam Deborah Jeane Palfrey pictured after attending a hearing at the Federal Court House in Washington, is being accused of running a prostitution ring in the Washington area that allegedly catered to upscale clients. I don't know about everyone else, but what kind of people would pay her money...she hit every branch on her fall from the ugly tree.

Great! A Fucking Rally!

Marchers are beginning to gather west of Chicago's Loop for today's immigration rights march and rally. Police officers have also begun setting up crowd control barricades along the demonstration route, which is expected to draw thousands of marchers. Organizers are hoping to mimic last year's rally when 400,000 flag-waving, chanting participants gathered in the heart of downtown. Chicago police, anticipating today's march will be larger than first expected, announced Monday that demonstrators will be rerouted to Grant Park instead of Daley Plaza, where the rally had been scheduled to take place. Police attributed the 11th-hour switch to public safety concerns, after anger over a bust at an alleged fake-ID business in Little Village last week stirred up emotions surrounding the march. The change surprised march organizers, who had chosen Daley Plaza as the symbolic heart of the city. The venue, they hoped, would lend weight to calls to legalize the country's estimated 12 million undocumented immigrants and to stop federal raids.

That was an exert from the Chicago Tribune describing today's rally. Illegal immigration is a hot topic for me that I am not going to touch upon in my Blog. I was annoyed that they were going to be meeting at the Daley Plaza because that is where I get on the L to go home and the last thing I want to do is fight my way through angry protesters to go home. I would probably end up punching someone in the face and that just wouldn't be good! I am so glad that they are being rerouted to Grant Park instead. I just better not be inconvenienced during my lunch hour!!! It's all about me...not the 12 million ILLEGAL immigrants!!!

Just one thing (I just can't keep it in)...they are protesting against Federal raids...um, maybe if you are breaking the law you should expect the law to break you! Fuck!!!
