From the "Stupidity for Stupidity's Sake" file...
Slow news week?
Amendment movement fails: Dubya wants to have a constitutional amendment to define marriage as being "between a man and a woman". It was debated and it has failed to gain any support in the current session. If you ask me, Dubya should keep his nose out of other peoples bedrooms. What folks do in the privacy of their own home is none of Bush's business! Or, as my son Jeff says, "Let the states decide." Hear, hear!
Martha Stewart sentenced to 5 years: the "domestic diva" got the least amount of time she could serve under current federal guidelines. In addition to the 5 years in jail, she also has to have 2 years supervised probation (incuding 5 months of house arrest), and pay $30K. If you will remember, she was convicted of lying about the sale of her ImClone stock.
"Ponytail Bandit" caught: a man who has been stalking women visiting cemetaries in New Orleans and cutting off their ponytails has been apprehended and is in jail. Can we say "fetish"? I knew you could.
Pop princess parents urge prenup: the parents of pop tart Britney Spears are putting pressure on their daughter to ask her fiance, Kevin Federline, to sign a pre-nuptial agreement. Reports say that Britney is hesitant to ask Kevin to do so (probably because she knows that if she asks, he may change his mind about marrying her). Hey Brit, J.Lo had to shell out big buckeroos to 2nd hubby Cris Judd because there was no prenup. That's your fate if Kevin doesn't sign one. Ask him, see what happens.
Jennings jacks up the ante: Ken Jennings, the 30+ day champ on Jeopardy, is still winning. As of 7/16, his take is now $1.1 million! How much longer will this go on? I'm rooting for people to beat him now.
Negative campaign ads: I want to ask any candidate, running for any office, why I shoud vote for them, and not why I shouldn't vote for the other guy. Trashing your opponent doesn't make me want to vote for you. You hear me, Kirk Humphreys? George Bush?
"Who's this? Happy?": my mom apparently is "misunderstanding" a lot of what she hears on the phone lately. A few weeks ago, a young lady that my 20 year old has been talking to on the phone called asking to speak to Dan. Mom asked who was calling, and thought she heard "Happy" instead of "Kathy". And just today, Mom had her dental appointment, and told me that there was a sign that said "Stanley Dental" outside the office. When we got there, the sign actually said "Family Dental"! Methinks that my mom needs to have her hearing checked the next time she sees her doctor.
Ex pleads poverty...again!: Jon claims he's broke, and is saying that is why he hasn't sent any child support our way. Apparently, he had to pay to get his new (old) car registered and inspected, instead of paying what he owes his kids. He still hasn't called the child support office in Massachusetts yet, but I was able to find out that Mass. has been informed of the obligation, and we may get a check in 30 to 45 days! Doesn't help us now...we're pretty damned close to broke now!
It's a heat wave: it has been oppressively hot in Oklahoma this week. It was suppoed to be in the low 100's today, but it now looks like we may get some rain...let's hope!
From Tank's Grrl's referrers list: this is the best one this week-- "pissed off fibromyalgia". Yeah, fibromyalgia pisses me off, since I have it, and I found other sites where it pisses off others with the condition as well.
News flash: I have a headache. Any questions? Click on the "Twenty Questions" icons in the sidebar (it looks like a tree), and at the bottom of the page.
and that's a wrap...
