A grapevine it's not

I was going to post pictures but when I Googled “animal abuse” the pictures were so disturbing I just started to tear up and couldn’t look at them anymore :’( You go to jail for beating on a defenseless human. What’s so different about a pet? They feel pain. They cry. They cower. They fear. [...]

Wow, what a moving weekend we had! Went out Friday, lunch with the rents Saturday and had friends over Sunday. Whatever, it’s moving for those who rarely leave the house. I’ve decided I don’t exactly care for Carlos and Charlie’s; way too much like Baja Beach Club for my aging sensibilities. I must further warn [...]

I prefer not to make comments on books as I believe each person needs to delve into their realms untarnished by the judgements of others. As such, I thought I’d review the narrator of Inkspell. Brendan Fraser is an amazing reader! I’ve liked him well enough in the various movies I’ve seen, but I had [...]

Going through Facebook today on of my high school people posted an interesting status: FACEBOOK EXPERIMENT: If you are reading this, even if we don’t speak often, post a comment with a memory of you and me.

Wedding dresses–and weddings for that matter–have always baffled me. It seems the entire affair is put on to impress friends and [...]

How can a country club in the 21st century still discriminate against another race? The worst part is now the back pedal undoubtedly contains lies. Racist comments, especially said at children, is completely unwarranted; and it just doesn’t matter who or where you are. These kids will probably remember this for a long, long time. [...]

Can the most common size in America really be 12-14? Can Fox really be doing yet another reality show about dating, this time with big’uns? When is it enough?! On that note, went to Chili’s for dinner with the rents tonight. Got there right smack at dinner time so yes, dinner took a little longer. [...]

Don’t ask, don’t tell. Hide, just conceal the truth at all times. Who wants to know the facts anyway? After all, we’re talking about the government here. What bullshit that a person in the military has to hide behind lies to be able to serve his country. What difference does it make, really? Does a [...]
