Just doing some blog-hopping before getting my supper on the go. Hope you've been having a nice weekend.
I am getting a bit sick and tired of going to some parking lots where they have these ridiculous signs :
Parents with Kids
Parents with little ones
Expectant moms
and the likes.
Why do these people feel so priveledged in having the next best spot? Just because I have no kids means I have to park in the back ( yeah right ! ). Save On Foods, IKEA, WALMART, SAFEWAY and the likes. One time my dad and I were in the IKEA parking lot. I parked the car in the "Parents with Kids" stall. My dad looked at me and stated I can not park there. My reply was " Are you my parent? Am I your kid?". He answered Yes to both.. so I can park! I am sure a judge will throw out the case on a matter of a technicality. Nowhere in the sign does it say how OLD a kid has to be!! I think it is one of the most ridiculous things. All these people think THEY are so important and need all these "un-needed" services. If you think a parking lot is too dangerous for your kid.. there are 2 options:
1.babysitter
2. HOLD ONTO YOUR CHILD !!
I understand the handicap stalls.. makes it easier for them. But these dumb children signs.. HOLD YOUR KIDS HANDS !!!
I am also sick of these " over senstive" people. You know who I am talking about!! These people who feel they are "offended" by every little thing. Life must be great if your only complaint is what someone said or did. SHUT UP ! LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO WORRY ABOUT A COMMENT ! People are wayyy to sensitive and get offended too quickly.
I miss George Carlin.
Why do we park on the driveway, and drive on the parkway?
When we send something out by plane or boat, it is called cargo. When it goes by car or van , it is called a shipment.
Abbreviation is a long word.
When did Toilet paper become Bathroom tissue?
Why do we get ON the plane? Wouldn't you rather get IN the plane! We get ON the train,On the boat, ON the bus..but get IN the car? Don't we get IN all of these things?
Magicians have their own Olympics. It is held every 3 years in a different location much like regular spot Olympics. Canada has 3 winners in the past.. the last one being in 1997 to Juliana Chen with her card manipulations. Go back three years and Greg Frewin won in the General Magic category. There are 2 international competitions.. Grand Prix of Magic, the other World Champion of Magic.
Here is something rather disturbing.. the average panhandler ( street bum ) in this city earn anywhere from $100 to $500 a day ...taxfree! One even lives in a high rise condo.. doing quite well!
Jonas Brothers singing with Stevie Wonder at the Grammy's last night was a crime.. "Very Superstitious" was a song sung looonnngggg before they were born! Then seeing Whitney Houston all messed up ( booze or drugs ) as she stumbled to the stage and then slurred her way through the speech was pathetic.
F.E.M.A strikes again. Remember how slow they were in responding to Hurrican Katrina? Well it seems the good folks at F.E.M.A sent out "care packages" with tainted Peanut butter to the State of Kentucky after a huge ice,rain and snow storm with extreme cold conditions swept the State. Looks like F.E.M.A still has no clue on how to function! Frostbite doesn't seem so bad now huh?
There is something seriously wrong in the medical field when a doctor uses a fertility drug on a patient who is un-employed, single and living with her folks and already has 6 children. I think the doctor who was responsible for this face a hearing and pay the medical bill.. talk about unethical and just plain ridiculous!
And finally... probably not a moment too soon:
Will someone please explain to me why certain women get sooooo pissed off when the Sport's Illustrated Swimsuit issue comes out? Are they mad because THEY aren't in it? Or is it because they feel women in the issue are "being exploited "? So what is the BIG deal? Every year it is the same thing. N.O.W and other feminists come out and "protest" the "exploitation of women".. OH SHUT UP ! First off the magazine has been doing this for over 30 years. So protesting it year after year is futile. Second.. shouldn't they be more concerned about the guy who beats women? Why is it these groups whether it is feminists or Animal Rights come out of the woodwork to shout about something they have no clue what they are talking about? PETA wants people to call fish... sea kittens ( you won't kill a sea kitten would you? ). WTF is that?
Ok.. I am wound up I could go on and on.. but I won't.
See you next time!
