I forgot New Hampshire

A reader pointed that out. They will be getting the blizzard too. And check out http://snlbound.tumblr.com/ and support her quest, pretty cool site that I have been following for a while.

When religion is BEYOND STUPID: Connecticut Lutheran pastor has apologized for participating in an interfaith prayer vigil for the 26 children and adults killed at a Newtown elementary school in December because his church bars its clergy from worshipping with other faiths

If killing Americans with no due process is OK when their alleged crime is consorting with al-Qaida, it’s not a huge intellectual leap to give government officials the same judge-and-jury authority over other heinous acts such as mass murder, drug trafficking, and child pornography.

Great point. It’s good to see so many are coming out questioning the creepy Obama drone memos..

The New England blizzard

I am jealous of neighbors to the north. They will be getting the ‘big storm’ that I was hoping would happen in my parts for years. On course with feet of snow so comes misery..

My only warning to those in Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine, and Connecticut: don’t let Andre Linoge in even if he promises to go away if he gets what he wants.

Recovering from the stomach flu this is about how I feel right now. I cannot even speak for Ayden

Ooooooh rats

The New York Times reports something a little disconcerting:

The fate of New York City’s legions of rats remained something of a mystery in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. Rodent specialists predicted that many rats would drown in submerged subway tunnels, but also that survivors would feast on the buffet of garbage strewed in the streets. Now, several exterminators say they know exactly what happened to the rats: Driven from shorelines, the rodents came inland, in droves.

The Times goes on to describe just how bad it got in NYC..


The TIMES interviewed a pest control expert, Timothy Wong:

Mr. Wong said he had been getting calls from schools and businesses, and from luxury buildings where rats have made warrens out of the planters. Shortly after the storm, his company received calls from several customers aghast to discover teeth marks and droppings in their cars. Mr. Wong’s advice: open the door. Though one woman, a BMW owner, refused, and instead hired his company to open the door for her, and shoo the rat out.

A new world of possibilities in the city that doesn’t sleep—for rats.

It's been a rough few days

My son and I shared the common bond of a stomach virus. He’s only 2 and has lots more to go.. I remembered how much I hate being sick. This one was particularly loathsome for the two of us.. Now it’s the soreness of the body and the headache, we both may venture to the kitchen to eat today… Lightly.

Also
Being that Subway was my last meal before it struck I may never, ever, be able to eat there again. Sorry Jared. It’s just the way it is.

Regurgitating the night away

Well my worst fears realized, my son has a stomach virus at the same time I do I feel very bad for mommy tonight.

When the eye doctor gets too close for comfort

Why do eye doctors get all up in your grill? Do they feel as uncomfortable as the patient does as they press their flesh against your face while they examine your eyeball?

My doctor tonight had that faint smell of late Winter body odor coupled with onions for lunch on his breath.

Is just my doctor or does everyone else go through this too?

I went to a viewing tonight.. they are never pretty. 

But viewings of someone who is 32 aren’t meant to occur.. viewings of a mom who had three kids is not fair at all..

Even worse, those friends who I gathered with were all with me in high school.. and here we are, aging beyond our early years, talking about parenting, graying hairs, and enlargening bellies..

So when the sadness was over, I walked to my car in the cold January air.. there was the most gorgeous moon shining above. I turned on Pandora and what else is on but but my favorite band AIRBORNE TOXIC EVENT with THE KIDS ARE READY TO DIE. It may not be a song about a young woman dying of cancer, but somehow it fit the feeling of the night..

Give it a listen if you never heard it before. And if you did, listen again…

I don’t know if there is a meaning of life but I sure hope there is. Don’t we all?

After seeing grieving children it gets tough to find that meaning, doesn’t it?

Peace all. Be safe.

Ads like this just annoy me… Sex sells but dammit unjust want to buy a razor without it… Am I the only one!?

Anyone out there ever get acupuncture?

I’m thinking about it.

So why do flies seem so attracted to the president?

Perhaps the AMITYVILLE WHITE HOUSE HORROR is being filmed?

Wow… Somewhat frightening.. Wonder if Katy Perry uses a lot of butter—and why.

Say it ain't so Beyonce: Apparently she did not actually sing during the inauguration ...

The media went nuts! A performance for the ages. Just it wasn’t live … I’d imagine most folks won’t care a bit about this issue but it’s sure fun to gossip about people billions richer than me…

AS THE EYES ROLL: A GIF FOR THE AGES?

It’s being called the GIF for the ages. First Lady Michelle Obama rolls her eyes at the House Speaker.. if only we could have been a fly in the food for this conversation..
