No taxation with out representation?? STFU

I have noticed that in the past few days some of those against the stimulus package have been trying to equate government spending as taxation with out representation.

Well sorry to break it to you guys but...uh...yall seriously need to learn to be better losers. I mean come on! You guys lost the election! For all the ZOMG OBAMA IS THE ANTICHRIST bullshit rhetoric you fuckin lost so STFU.

Obama has been in office for 28 days! He has started working on solving the problems that the last president left for him and I am certain will be cleaning up the mess for the better part of his first term. Give the man a chance to do some good before you all pass judgement.

But the fact is that Obama is your president. The congress and the senate that voted for the stimulus are both an elected body of officials, whether you voted for them or not. That is how a Democracy works.

Oh and read this: Sportsmanship


that is all.

What the Bleep Was I Thinking?!?

After reading Carl Sagan's Baloney Detection Kit section in the book The Demon Haunted World I started thinking about some of the things that I (then) believed to be true. Recently I saw part of the the movie The Secret. Honestly, I couldn't get past the first 10 minutes of the film. It was like a movie length version of those "Make your living from home" infomercials (scams)...way too painful to get through the whole thing. What struck me is that The Secrets has a similar message as the movie What the Bleep Do We Know? I thought "Hmm, I haven't seen that movie in a while. I liked that movie...I wonder if it is as ridiculous as The Secret?"
OMG I had no idea!

Apparently What the Bleep is a propaganda piece for a cult whose leader believes that she is the intermediary for a warrior spirit from Atlantis named Ramtha. . What I find hilarious/frightening is that in the film J.Z. Knight the founder of Ramtha School of Enlightenment is introduced AS RAMTHA! I always wondered why she had a weird accent!



I guess that is what an Atlantean would sound like speaking English. Lulz!

I know some people who will be like "So? She could be!" To those people I submit:




In all seriousness though I want to apologize to those people that I gave this film to. Please read the references I have provided and make up your own mind. I think the lesson from this is to always question and never assume that just because something looks good, or sounds easy that it is truth. In fact I would say that is it usually the opposite!

No matter how hard you wish for something it is your actions that bring about events, or the actions of others. It's like I have told my brother who calls me and tells me what he is going to do with the lotto money WILL win one day..."You have to buy a ticket first!"

Working Out

So, I stopped working out about a year and a half ago. I weigh less but I wear a bigger size..if that makes any sense. Anyhoo, I finally get the energy to go work out yesterday when I saw a workout show on Fit TV. It was belly dancing, so I thought to myself, "No one is here, I can try it out to see if I like it."

OMG I am so bad at dancing!! LOL

So, seeing as the dancing was a failure I decided to go outside to run. There is this big brush pile next to the track that me and J use, and as I was passing by it I thought to myself " I should really watch out for snakes coming out of there" As I looked down to watch out for snakes I seethe head of one of the biggest snakes I have ever seen (in the wild) RIGHT BY my foot. I surprisingly didn't squeal and run away. But I did go inside. That ended my workout for yesterday. With the belly dancing and the running I got maybe 25 mins. in. Maybe today I can get out there with J...and make him run ahead of me LOL

So, first day of school...

has been good so far. I have a lot of down time today between classes. I should be starting my online classes now but I'm not gonna. Instead I'm talking to you..or no one..hence the name of my blog. :mumbles:

My schedule is as follows:

A&P I

Really hard but I REALLY wanna do well in this class. This is my second attempt, so I'm hoping the info. I remember will help me with that. At least I hope I remember anything. hehehe
I am putting the bad experience I had the last time I took this class behind me. I have been through so much bad stuff this summer I am tired of always being stressed and thinking the worst of people and life. This class was the best example of me doing that. Last time I stressed myself , then blamed the teachers for being asses (which they kinda were) but I know that it was ultimately my choice to fail. SO, here's to new beginnings and a better outlook!

Medical Terminology

Yeah, the other class I failed. HAHA The worst thing about this is it was totally MY FAULT. haha Yes..I admitted something is my fault...don't faint. I even thought I passed this class and just so happened to look at my grades for last fall while I was registering. I was like "WTF I failed THAT class?!? Once again new time in my life, new attitude....I definitely want to good and pass this. :)

These other classes I am taking to fill out my schedule hours so my loans don't come out of deferment.

Film Appreciation

I look forward to this! Apparently the professor has been in movies and TV. I think his IMDB said he was in a few episodes of Walker: Texas Ranger. LOL I remember watching that with my Granny. She had a thing for Chuck Norris...yeah...I don't know either...

Logic

LOL

No really, it's a philosophy class. I had a look at the syllabus and notes and I think I have my work cut out for me BUT I know I iz smart.

So, now I have to figure out how to pay for my books. I would say books are the worst part of a new semester. They are instruments of torture that you are forced to pay for and use on yourself. hehehe Not really, but the prices of books are ridiculous.

Oh, well such is life.

That's all I got right now. I still have to go to my A&P Lab so if anything interesting happens I will prolly not write it here. Because I all ways forget to blog. I'm gonna try to be better tho.:)

Love all you guys!

Obama is Growing on Me...

"You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years, and nothings replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate, and they have not. And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

Most people who follow the news have heard all the mweh mweh mweh about the comment Obama made. The people he was talking about are all offended, the people who control the thoughts of the people he is talking about are acting offended, and Clinton supporters are relishing in the anti Obama sentiment that came from the comment.

Get the fuck over it "working class"...IT'S TRUE.

I voted for Clinton in the primaries so, I'm not saying this as a Obama fan girl. The Conservative media DOES control the ideas in the (moslty conservative) working class. Shut the fuck up and stop acting offended. Even in the Liberal side media controls what people think about, talk about and act on. It just so happens that the segment of society that that Obama was talking about is conservative. Of course the Limbaugh/Coulter idiots are gonna jump on this and make Obama out to be elitist and out of touch.

Look at what has happened in the last 8 years people!!! Most of us "working class" types are worse off. So why does the news media harp on immigration issues, gun issues, and Paris Hilton? It's because the people that own the news channels are owned by corporations, and those corporations are same types that feed off of the ignorance and un happiess of all of us.

You think CNN wants you to be happy? NO They want you to buy the medicines the advertise. You think Rush Limbaugh wants you to be happy? Fuck no, he wants you to be full of hate, just like him. or else why would anyone watch that disgusting excuse of a human being, right?


These people control the conversation that is going on in our society. These people have their own agendas, that unfortunately DO NOT included peace and happiness for any of us. So, all of you who act offended from this comment , get over it. It's like if I told my best friend she talk s too loud, and she gets made at me for pointing out a flaw, even though she knows it's true. Honesty is what we need in the country now, not more pandering to some dumb fuck idea of how noble the working man is.


Obama's detractors say that the comment was condescending, I say the comment is one of the first times I have noticed a politician treat the American people like adults who can handle constructive criticism. Being treated like someone with a brain?!? HOW DARE YOU BARACK OBAMA!
