Today's Topic ...
Is there anyone on the planet (except the man in question and the jealous perverts who want one of their own) who doesn't think the 41 year old teacher (now former) leaving his family to move in with the 18 year old former classmate of his daughter is a creepy pervert pedophile. And he says he didn't do anything unprofession until after she was 18 ( Read more... ) -
Some Additional Thoughts on Religion
Hoo Dogie my little bit on Catholicism raised quite a comment string over at Kathy's. So here's a bit more on my take on the whole thing.
First, I was raised Roman Catholic. We had our doorway Jesus (The Infant of Prague), our Saint's bones (in a reliquary, which I still have), all the trimmings. I was the youngest of 6 so some of my proper ( Read more... ) -
Interesting
After writing about the guy making $500K and whining, I now have to retract and perhaps blast the sensationalistic way the media presented the story. I watched an interview with this guy. A) he makes $350K and with Fed, State, Local and AMT is taxed at around 55% (yikes!) B) he never said he was either dissatisfied with his pay or not fortunate ( Read more... ) -
Things not to Complain About
I totally believe in non-discrimination but if a Lesbian is denied communion in a Catholic Church, tough luck. I don't care if it was her mother's funeral or the second coming of Christ. By the tenants of the Catholic Church, she is in mortal sin and should not receive. If she's in the church she should have an idea of that ahead of time. It's ( Read more... ) -
Happy Thanksgiving
Today is Thanksgiving in the US and many people will gather with family and friends to celebrate the bounty that the year has brought. Times are tough for so many that I'm sure many people will be looking very hard inside themselves for something to be grateful for today. Still this is not a one day exercise. I know I try each day to remember ( Read more... ) -
LOL - Sweet Dreams
It's time again for GenieAlisa's Living Out Loud. This month the topic is Sleep.
Since Genie has a toddler I know that's a precious comodity. I feel your pain, but happily in the past.
So for this month's topic Genie asks how we're sleeping. And the answer as a middle aged woman is OK, but not like I used to.
For as long as I can remember I've ( Read more... ) -
** Just a Reminder **
There's still a little more time to pick a beautiful IGIGI item out and leave a comment on my fashion show entry. Seriously it's just that easy and I'll be giving away a $50 gift certificate! How cool is that?
Counting down ... we'll pick the random comment on 4/7 in the morning, so don't delay.

The Sky's the Limit
I've missed a bunch lately but I'm home, hanging out and noticed it was time again for Genie Alisa's Living Out Loud. This
month the theme is Blue Sky. As in do a little dreaming, the sky's the limit.
So I tried. It was a pleasant afternoon after a fairly stormy morning. The little ratter and I were on our afternoon constitutional and I tried ( Read more... ) -
Wow, just Wow
Logged onto Facebook this am as is my wont. An old friend who rarely posts had one of those long message posts. Suprising. I went over to read it. Holy Cow! Emotional dump right in the middle of a social networking site where he 1) mea culpa'ed for an affair 2) trashed the person he was having sex with 3) professed how wronged his wife was by ( Read more... )
