Thank you to a friend

This is not exactly news but I wanted to post this anyway to thank someone that has really helped me:)
I have this really cool friend that has helped me out more than I thought was ever possible. I don't even think that SHE knows how much she has done for me and my family. But I wanted to thank her for her very good advise and help that she has given to me selflessly for the last couple of months. Please check out her List of Paying Surveys. Everything is free and from what I understand you can make a pretty decent amount of cash by doing them. Some of them are a lot of fun as well. Some pay cash and some put you into a cool drawing. So check them out!

Missing New York Teacher Found

I don't know how many of you have been watching the status of the missing NYC teacher that has been missing since August 29th. Her belongings were found by her roommate and she was to begin teaching at a school that she taught at last year. She apparently was spotted in an Apply Computer store while she was looking at her email. Well today she apparently tried to commit suicide by jumping off of a bridge but was saved by a boat crew. She had a pulse but was unconscious at the time but is expected to recover. I am so glad that she was found. I am sure that her family is upset at what she tried to do today, but glad to know that they still have a chance to save their loved one.

I miss Bernie Mack!

I was so saddened when I heard about Bernie Mack's untimely death. I love his TV show. I think he actually portrays a great dad and even though I am a mom, I find myself acting and thinking a lot of the same things that he does in his shows. I am actually sitting here watching a few of his shows on FX. I had actually forgotten how good the show was. It really saddens me that there will be no more new shows with him in it.

New Cold War?

Well, it looks like the world doesn't have to worry about the world heating up because it is getting colder between Russia and other Nato nations especially the US. President Bush just canceled a celebrated bill that was sent to congress back in may on civilian nuclear cooperation. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has recently stated that he is not afraid of a new cold war.
I personally believe that it is more of a fight for oil then anything else. And that Russia is the big gorilla beating his chest. How does that song go? Oh yea "That don't impress me much".

Casey Anthony back to jail

Well thank God Casey Anthony is back in Jail. She has been rearrested after making bail earlier this month. She was arrested on fraudulent check charges. Apparently she wrote a few checks on her friends checking account. I can't believe that they still haven't found at least the body of this precious little girl. I have a boy one year younger (actually shares her birthday) that sort of reminds me of her. How can anyone go a month without reporting her child missing? Why didn't she just give the little girl to the grandparents? It appears that she had lots of family support from them and she still did something ie. gave her away, sold her or killed her.
I hope they find her soon because it makes my heart ache just thinking about it.

Great VP pick!

Well I don't know what you guys think, but I think that Senator McCain picked an excellent VP candidate! She is just as conservative as he is liberal. Yes I think that he is a liberal. I think that a lot of the times he should be a democrat but I really do look up to him as a former POW of something like 5 years. Do I think he is a little bit "off" yes I do, who could have gotten through something so awful as what he went through with out being a little off? Is he my pick for president? Yeah, seeing it's him or Obama. I also think that Palin is going to do a lot of damage to Hilary's future campaign for President in the next 4 or 8 years depending on who gets elected this time around. I'm really glad to see a pretty, smart, tomboy (but not lesbian) come into the picture. She has been a beauty queen, and off shore fisherman, stay at home mom, mayor of a small town... I think that she represents a lot of American women. They definitely have my vote!

A one, two punch!

Hanna



Gustov



Wow, I guess we are going to be getting a 1, 2 and a 3rd punch this hurrican season. We JUST got rid of Fay and now Gustov is causing mandatory evacuations in New Orleans and thats not all, now we also have Hanna to deal with as well. The cone looks like Fay soaked Florida my get it again! I think that it's so strange how some years there are no hurricanes in the area of Florida and then some years it feels like we are getting hit with them all. I am praying for the people of New Orleans as well. I could not imagine living in an area that is under sea level like that and is reliant on levies that did not hold up the last time. I would feel like a sitting duck to tell you the truth because who is to say that the levies might not fail just because. May not take as much as a hurricane.
