Evening all!
Sorry I wasn’t on sooner but we had a bad storm and for awhile, it sounded like we had a tornado somewhere close by! The Weather guys said one was spotted about five miles North of Brandon in the Seffner area—Well, that’s just about where we live.
I looked outside but didn’t see anything, thank goodness.
I bought some computer software today among my many and sun dried items. Three in fact. One is an Internet Radio Recorder, the next is the Singing Coach and last a game called “Impossible Creatures” that looked interesting. The only down side to it is that idea of the game is to come up with genetic mutations (Like the head of a tiger and the body of a scorpion) so they can fight. I like the mixing part put I don’t really want my creatures to fight. I don’t want to see my cyber creatures get killed. I’m hoping for a “peace” mode.
All three sound like they will be great fun. I just hope I can find the time to really use them. If you could only see the DVD’s alone that are still in their original wrappings or just had the wrapping removed so I could read the inside but have never watched, you would be amazed.
I have a ton of computer games that I rarely to never play either. If I could just quit that four letter word called “Work”, I might finely have the time I need to do the things I want. Sigh.
I saw what I thought was a disgusting sight today. A young pregnant gal wearing a mini skirt. The top of the what there was of the skirt was under her very big belly and she was also wearing a cut off shirt so she looked like a guy with a beer gut sticking out. Ugh. Made me want to vomit on the ground.
So glad to see DR Jane and DH are back safe and sound. I’m glad to learn that I am not the only person who cries about the loss of inanimate objects. There has been a car or two in my past that brought me to tears when I watched them being towed away.
I’m already bonding with Bonnie as she’s my first new car. It will be very hard to say goodbye to her when the day (many years from now) arrives. I’m not doing bad. I’ve only put about five hundred miles on her since January. At this rate, I think I can count on her being around for a good long bit.
I’m also glad I was able to replace my memory foam pad. I thought I was stiff this morning but I’m really feeling it now.
As for the story about the little brat, excuse me, kid who was cuffed by the police, that happened in my neck of the woods. Here is a better link that shows how she was misbehaving.
http://www.wfts.com/stories/2005/04/050422girlarrest.shtmlThe teachers/school is not allowed to touch the kid but she is hitting the lady in the video and has destroyed her office.
I do think the cuffs were a little much. They should have broke out the paddle. Five or six good hard whacks might have fixed the problem.
Obviously discipline and respect for your elders are not words in the parent’s vocabulary. I KNOW what my parents would have done in a case like this. I might not be sitting down yet.
This crap that the teacher/principal can’t administer correction is wrong. Bring back the paddle. Maybe use it on some of the parents as well. It might straighten their act out too.
I look around and see stuff like this and that ten year old killing himself and his mom then hear the kid across the street (a little kid, I have no idea what age) shaking his fists at his parents and screaming at the top of his lungs, “I HATE you! I HATE you! I wish you were DEAD!” just this week when I was getting out of my car and I wonder next week I'll hear a bang then read in paper he killed them. Maybe I should have called the cops when I heard that but then what does one do with a misbehaving child now days?
Opps, I’m ranting. Sorry. I don't even have any kids. Well, at least I lucked out in that department.
