My youngest son when he was little used to say “I’m tard” when he was tired. No amount of trying to correct his pronunciation worked. Tonight, all I can think is I’m tard.I’ve have had alot of traffic to this blog this week, thanks to the Sarge. I should be trying to post something completely brilliant and stimulating to draw people back…but I’m too tard and I can’t quite come up with brilliant and stimulating on my best days. Ah well.
I’ll share a few web finds:
Although we yet to have a blogging President I did find out today we have The Pied Piper of Blogging. See what the Piper thinks of the future of journalism and online publishing.
Apparently things are turning around, it seems now men would rather spend that extra hour in bed sleeping rather than having sex. Looks like you guys better quit blogging a little earlier and get your asses to bed.Last but not least an interesting blog I found after he left a comment on a previous post. Meet Doc from Sea Doc, a paramedic blogging offshore from the Gulf of Mexico.
Now I’m taking my tard ass to bed.

When you find debts running out of your limits then filing, chapter 7 bankruptcy will be the final option to get rid of all unpaid debts. However, on filing chapter 7 bankruptcy you will lose all your valuable assets. So before opting for bankruptcy check for all other available options through which you will be able to clear your debts. On filing chapter 7 bankruptcy the government will take necessary actions to first clear all your secured debts and then the unsettled debts. Even though you will lose all your assets if you file for bankruptcy there are some federal bankruptcy exemptions that will help you in holding some of the benefits back with you like, retirement benefits, survivor benefits, disability benefits and others. These exemptions although cannot cure all your wounding caused due to losing all your belongings, it will provide you some hope to get back to life.

1. What’s the last place you traveled to, outside your own home state/country?
Iowa of course. Before that Alabama, then Iowa three times, then Florida. In the past year.
2. What’s the most bizarre/unusual thing that’s ever happened to you while traveling?
When I was 18 with a friend of mine, we decided we were going to take 2 weeks and drive to California and see the world. Shit. What a different world from Iowa. The most bizarre thing on that trip happened in Oakland, CA..where we got lost. We were supposed to be going to her aunt’s house for the night, but we couldn’t even find the right city. We stopped at this gas station, where these two guys were working..all covered with grease and grim. They were foreign..we assumed Mexican. Remember we were from Iowa and didn’t know shit. Patti was crying because we were lost in a very very black area. We hadn’t showered for 2 days because we had been camping, we stunk, we were tired. Well these guys were closing the station and said we could go home with them and use their shower, and they had room if we wanted to stay. They were very nice guys. Why we ever agreed is beyond me now, but at the time it seemed appropriate. I remember thinking in my ignorance, that these guys were Mexican and probably had 12 people living in a 2 room house. Patti thought the same thing. Well we ended up following these guys to their home…which took quite awhile to get there. Well these guys didn’t live in a 2 bedroom house, they lived in a mansion with about 10 bedrooms. They weren’t Mexican, they were Iranians. They didn’t work at the gas station they owned several. We ended up spending 2 nights there, they wined and dined us, were absolutely perfect gentlemen. Hussein and Gus…no shit. Their father had sent them to America to go to college and work in the family’s business. Both were majoring in political science. We stayed in touch for about a year after til they left to go home. I moved..and we lost contact. I’ve always wondered what became of them.
3. If you could take off to anywhere, money and time being no object, where would you go?
Alaska
4. Do you prefer traveling by plane, train or car?
I’d prefer that Scotty beamed me up. If I have a lot of time, I’d prefer to drive.
5. What’s the next place on your list to visit?
Iowa…in 7 days.

Thanks to Kelly at Suburban Blight I found out I was good Ol’ Abe in past life? He was a republican right? Now I have to find out.You came a long way from your humble
birth in a log cabin in the Kentucky frontier in 1809. Your family moved to Illinois when
you were 21, and at age 22 you become a surveyer, shopkeeper, and postmaster in
Springfield. In 1834 you got elected to the Illinois state legislature, where you first
denouced slavery publicly. In 1836 you got your law license. At the age of 33 you married
Mary Todd, and had four children.Unfortunately, one died at age 4 and another at age 12. After losing the election to Senate, you became nominated as the new Republican party’s candidate for president. You won the election, just as southern states began seceding from the Union. You became the president that saw the nation through its bloodiest war to date. During your second term in office, the same year that Robert E. Lee surrenders and ends the Civil War, you were shot in the Ford Theater by John Wilkes Booth.Later that year, the Thirteenth Amemdment to the Constitution abolished slavery.

I just read quite a long post by Steve on Little Tiny Lies about a lot of topics really. In the post he tackles what he believes to be the difference in men and womens sexuality. There I think he’s on the money for the majority. Of course everyone can’t be pigeon holed into that philosophy but it’s a view with valid points.
To the Christians:
Christianity is as diverse as the world. Everyone has their own views. Jesus is God, or He is not. The Bible can be taken literally or not. We know which view some Christians take on that subject when you look at their views on abortion or homosexuality..one of those things that’s black and white.The Bible says Christians do this. They did this centuries ago, they will in the times to come. God also says He will take the luke warm and spit them out of His mouth. God says false prophets will arise and mislead many. Lawlessness will increase.So my point? Why argue about homosexuality? The Bible has been written..the Word stands. Rewrite it all you want, ignore the blatant warnings. Go ahead, create your own churches and doctrine. Go ahead, have at it, have fun. Take all your knowledge gained by man on this earth and let the false prophets lead you into the gray areas. We do have free will.It’s not my place to tell you, you are wrong. It’s my place to let you know there is a God and He has spoke. What you do with it is completely up to you.
To the atheists regarding homosexuality:
Your government is your higher power. If you don’t like the laws, rewrite it. As long as someone is not causing bodily injury to another, why do you care? What is the point of marriage anyway? Wedding and bedding your dog, goat or cat should be allowed. Why not? Who is to say it is wrong? There is no God remember? Why hold back and let a “fictional” piece of literature dictate your society rules?
So just in case my ramblings didn’t make sense I believe the Bible is the inerrant word of God. Jesus is God. I’ve posted before that God will make a phone call to you. You choose to answer it or not. You listen to the whole message or not. God did not make this hard. Mankind did.

Oscar over at Ofhills.com has a anger test for all to take based on the book “Anger Kills” by Redford Williams and Virginia Williams.I already knew I was going to score through the roof once the questions starting veering to traffic situations. I’m a big time road rager. I never had this problem, and it is a problem, in Iowa. This surfaced in Detroit..where they allow stupid people to sit behind a wheel. They might be able to build them here, but they sure can’t drive them. Here I have trouble with acceptance because these people are a physical threat to others.There were also several argument questions. I don’t argue. I either listen then state my point and move on, or state my point, listen and move on. Yes, I am a stubborn bitch. I have a quick red headed Sicilian temper that burns fast and bright for a few moments…and cools down just as fast. Just and FYI, I no longer have red hair, I dye it brown.Just this morning one of my ex’s stopped by and for whatever reason wanted to rehash why we broke up. Three years ago no less. What is the point? You’ve stated your point, I’ve stated mine. Let’s move on! Life is not about a continuous rehashing of issues. You are missing life. I can accept someone does not share my viewpoint. Why do people have so much trouble accepting people that don’t share your viewpoint? Some people thrive on making issues.Anyway when I took this test my annoyance level was at a high level. Still is. Of course it didn’t help when he told me my ass was getting bigger. Damn fool.

Indeed, the entire ice sheet of Eastern Antarctica, large enough to affect global climate, believed formed by glaciers flowing from the mountains to the ocean. Recent imaging studies have revealed the true morphology Gkampourtsev mountains, but mystery remains as to how they are formed. “Now we know that there is a volcanic mountain,” said Kathryn Rose, a researcher at the British Geological Survey and member of the group, in an interview on the website of Our Amazing Planet. Unlikely is not impossible and the possibility that the mountains were formed by the upward movement of magma in the Earth’s crust lift, as happened for example in the mountains of Hawaii. “Even just scrape our heads about how these mountains were formed and why they still exist,” said Robin Bell. “But I think now we have the data we need to solve the puzzle,” he said.

As I was rolling up my window this morning when I pulled into work, I heard this loud bang, crash…and definitely crumbling coming from the drivers door panel. Of course the window stopped half way up..and was slowly inching down. No amount of pushing, smacking and swearing at the little button didn’t make my window do anything.So I get out and proceed to try and pull the thing up..and in pulls the Doc in his damn Jaguar, so he bounces over to my car with his 16 year old face and starts jabbering how he has got some drug rep to take us out to lunch. Blah, Blah. Finally I shoot him this venomous look and say…uhh, can you see I have a bit of a problem here? He says ..well yeah, you’ve got a big problem it’s supposed to rain today. Well duh! So I say fuck it, and he says yeah, that sucks. So in we go.

I’ve had Ad-aware for ages, and usually run it weekly. Today I was reading a post over at Utterly Boring (which he is far from being) about Task Managers processes running in the background. I always wondered what that crap was. Well I found out about what half of the 42 processes I have running most of the time. I also found out I have a lot of crap thanks to this site.So I also downloaded Spybot which found even more crap…and now I’m less full of crap.Now, now be nice…don’t go there.

Crap! I do not want to drive to downtown Detroit. I’d rather go to the dentist, hell I would rather go get a PAP smear. That’s how bad I hate it. I always get lost, I always drive like a tourist on drugs. I always have 2 seconds to cross 4 lanes to get to the right exit.I borrowed my friends Escalade and my car is sitting in his garage..safely dry. So not only will I be a tourist with colorful 8×10′s MapQuest pages in front of my face I will be deadly driving that huge ass thing. But it’s got a Bose stereo system…this is a plus, and it sure the hell won’t be blaring jazz.I have a union arbitration hearing over a gal I fired a year ago. Actually it sounds like we already lost..apparently the judge listening today always goes the way of the person fired if it’s an insubordination firing.To make the story short, this gal came to work 30 minutes late, didn’t like where she was assigned to work for the day so walked off the unit. She proceeded to walk around the building bitching to anyone that listened that she “wasn’t going to work there”. The supervisor sent her home and told her not to come back to work until she spoke with me.So in my interview with her the next day, she tells me she did go to her unit and took care of “Mr. X”. She did give patient care while she was “on the clock”. Well Mr. X had been in the hospital for a week…good try, need to check your facts before you lie.Now I bet that judge would not find in her favor if his mom or dad was laying there waiting for over an hour for care and she refused to help them.
