Mummy! Santa's smoking!!! Waaaaaaaa.... :-)
My views on life, especially when it's something slighting another human being (usually me). It's as I see it, and a little bit of how others do too.

Not the Typical Post Here...
Just thought to give you something different than the news, or a brill post. A little bit about me for a sec...
1. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE?The plain answer, no. My Dad just came up with the name.
2. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU CRIED?Two nights ago, while walking. I was listening to Alison Krauss' "It Doesn't Matter," which makes me cry in a heartbeat for some reason.
3. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?Sometimes. I need to be pressing on several sheets of paper to get the letters to form properly, and that's the only time I do like it.
4. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE LUNCH MEAT?I suppose when I have eaten it, it's turkey.
5. DO YOU HAVE KIDS?That would be a no.
6. IF YOU WERE ANOTHER PERSON, WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU?I'd like to believe so.
7. DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT?Frightfully so.
8. DO YOU STILL HAVE YOUR TONSILSI'm completely intact on multiple fronts.
9. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP?I seriously doubt it.
10. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CEREAL?Kashi Fruit Mix.

18. WHAT COLOR SHOES ARE YOU WEARING?I’m not. Is that a problem?

39. WHAT IS ON YOUR MOUSE PAD?I don't have one. It's an optical mouse, so I don't need one.

Fire hits Palin's church in Alaska
CNN.com: I'm sorry, but even if some people think she's baneful or whatever, there is no excuse for this. I somewhat liked her, and she's surprised me a few times.
This, however, is wrong, and I hope the party responsible, if there is one, is caught and punished.
Bad.

Widow defends suicide documentary
This is a very potent issue, I think. I'm still trying to sort out what I think about it, between what I've been raised with and what I could possibly think.
Very heavy, indeed.
Do you have a ready opinion about this? I'd really like to hear it.
