Circus Freak Blues

Out of guilt piled on by my big brother (unintentionally, I'm sure!), I have searched the depths of my soul to find some positivityness to share. And I've found some. Though I can't promise to be eloquent at this hour of the morning....

Driver Etiquette 101

I love when people don't let you change lanes and they actually speed up to block you. As far as being polite goes, that's probably at the tippy top of things you can do. Also, when I'm on the freeway and somebody is going 50mph in the fast lane, and I go around them and they speed up so I can't get over...it's my favorite. I wish everyone would drive around with no destination in mind and just drive extremely slow and when people try and pass them, they speed up. It makes total sense to me.

Happy Adam Sandler

I love Adam Sandler but I wish he would stop doing these cookie cutter comedies. I miss the good ol' days when he did Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison etc. I even thought Little Nicky was pretty damn funny....stupid, but funny.

Raising Hope For "Raising Hope"

If you haven't seen the show "Raising Hope", then you're missing out. It's hilarious! Some of these other shows are getting old, especially sitcoms. You can tell that they're trying to hard to make people laugh, because they have the live audience in front of them. I like the shows that don't have to try and be funny, they just are. Raising Hope is exactly that and totally reminds me of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which is the best show on television by the way.

Let's Sensationalize The News A Little More

Broadcast and cable news networks are too tame with their headlines for my taste.  When they tease a story with a headline like “Are toxic radiation clouds headed for Southern California?” I don’t feel the proper amount of terror to keep me on that channel to find out the truth (that while, yes, radioactive plumes are headed our way they will be so diluted and dispersed over time that they pose less threat than 20 minutes on the beach without sunscreen).

Grateful For My Cats

I am so grateful that for the past few years, while I’ve been laid up here at home from a back injury, I’ve had the fine company of all my wonderful cats.

Chocoholic Easter

I know that Christmas is the holiday for retailers (and Christians, of course), and Valentine’s Day is a holiday made-up for the benefit of the Greeting Card companies and florists.  And St. Patrick’s Day is primarily for the drunks and drinkers alike (and the Irish Catholics).  But I am firmly convinced that Easter is a holiday primarily geared towards Chocoholics and largely benefiting the drug-peddling dealers known as the candy companies (and Christians, of course).

Why Angry Birds Belongs On TV

It makes perfect sense to me that they are making an Angry Birds TV show and (hopefully) movie. I can only speak for myself, but at the end of my marathon Angry Birds sessions I am often left wanting more depth out of the story, more insight into the personalities of the birds, more evil wrongdoings by those nasty little pig heads.

Thank God For Charlie Sheen!

Thank God for Charlie Sheen...at least we don't have to hear about Justin Bieber any more.

Bieber Fever-StrainHV2

I cannot get enough Justin Bieber!! I am thrilled to see him on every single TV program, in every magazine from Time to TV Guide, on all the radio programs and podcasts as well. I just think that's what we all need in this desperate time for our world and our nation; more Justin Bieber than we can shake a stick at!

Mother Nature Interior Design

Wind is SO cool! The excitement of wondering whether or not I'll be getting a new patio door courtesy of our homeowner's insurance is unrivaled! And the idea of finding our patio furniture in our living room is intriguing. Maybe it'll look so good, we'll just keep it there.

In Praise Of The Super Bowl

I love the Super Bowl! It's awesome to get together with friends, drinking and laughing, screaming and hollering at the TV!  Rewinding the great moments and analyzing every breathtaking scene as it unfolds on the screen. The camaraderie of all my friends simultaneously cheering or moaning depending on how much they've had to drink! Absolutely one of the funnest parties to go to every year no matter where it's held.

If only they wouldn't keep interrupting the commercials with that stupid football game it would be the perfect television event.

Blister Pack Cure

Really, blister packs for cold medicines are the best invention ever! I mean, who doesn't look forward to the challenge of getting a pill you are desperate for out of the packaging? It's a great way to take your mind off of how crappy you feel!

Gun Control Suggestion

The problem with guns isn't that we need better gun control laws. The problem is that we need better guns to shoot all the bleeding-heart liberals that say things like "Guns don't kill people, people kill people." This one ought to do it!!

FBI - Taking One For The Kids

I think it was awesome how the FBI undercover agent demonstrated to the young children why you always make sure the gun is empty BEFORE pulling the trigger. He was even willing to suffer by shooting his foot for the sake of children. I am sure he was also showing his agency the importance of proper training. WOW, that was covering "two birds with one shot". Maybe he could help balance our budget!

The Best Of Winter

I love winter. I love the snow, falling like little ice pebbles on the back of my neck and straight down the back of my shirt so it can create a little pool of freezing water at the small of my back. I love it when the thermometer reads 9 degrees, but you have to check the "feels like" index, because that's actually -11 degrees.

Valentine's Lovin'

Nothing says 'I Love You' quite like a Valentine's gift from the 7-11. Panties folded to look like a rose? Yes please! And could you get me some cheetos and a big gulp while you're at it? romantical! A 3 foot Valentine's card that says 'I Love You' - wow! I know you mean it now! Am I being too cynical? I know it's the thought that counts - my thought is this white trash love affair ain't gonna end well....

Drugs On TV

I just love those TV ads for (fill in the blank) medicine. These big pharmaceutical companies buy 60 second spots to advertise their life-changing drugs. The commercials are filled with positive imagery and use the most uplifting, ethereal music in the background, while a narrator with a soothing, peaceful timbre to their voice spends the first 10 seconds telling you how wonderful the drug is, and how it will change your life for the better in ways even they cannot fully describe.

We'll Get It Right Next Time

I say we absolutely should let the Federal Government run out of money. Let's not raise that pesky deficit anymore! Down with big government!! Hell, let's just say what we're all thinking...Down with ANY government.
