Political Thoughts

Ok I am not as well informed as some people. But,
I do watch the news. MSNBC & yes, FOX
to get both sides of the stories that are going around

But what I am wantin to talk about is the
Movie by Micheal Moore
Sicko

Wil and I watched this the other night
and have had some very indepth
conversations on this single topic.

Now giving the benefit of the doubt
that perhaps only 50% of his movie is true
and the rest was edited to all levels to make it
look perfect..it STILL is a good idea.

If all these countries that were highlighted
in this move are doing this Universal Health-care
and it is WORKING!!
Why in God's name is the U.S.A not getting
on board with this?
Perhaps the drug companies and health insurance
companies are afraid they will be obsolete?
Perhaps the 50 cars and 10 houses and
all that money they have is not enough?
I have always been willing to help someone in need
perhaps because I am poor and have a heart.

Thing is, even if I had won the lotto and never had to
worry again, I would STILL be looking to help my fellow
sister/brother.

When is it enough? When do the people that have all
the wealth say it is enough. They can live 50 lifetimes
without worry and still, they have to be greedy
selfish a$$holes and screw the next person.

I have spoken to my hubby and if McCain truly
somehow wins, we are moving to Canada.
I am not saying Obama is the best choice,
but for what is offered, he is the lesser of two evils.

All the other countries laugh at Americans because
we are so backwards and greedy.
No wonder we are imploding
with homelessness, sickness and death.

A new Bytchfest and HNT!

Alright here we are again. Another day off has come and
gone. And this is my bytchfest on the occurrences of the day.

First off the Commander and I woke
pretty early considering we did not hit the
hay till almost 2:30 am.

I rose first and headed down to our office
to do my usual morning mail checks and such
as I always do. The Commander soon
followed as normal. We discussed what
we had to get done and what we wanted
to accomplish. A plan was soon agreed
upon and I hit the shower.

The first order of business was the city sticker.
Just another way for the town we live in to get
their few dollars from every single person that
dares to live in their town.
That was done quickly and easily.

Next was the library.
With hopes of securing
a library card and hopefully a few trashy
romance novels to lose myself in for a few days,
we headed to the library.
Welllll.......it did not work out.
Go figure.
Drivers licenses, city sticker, getting my son
registered for school was a lot easier.
They accepted a letter from our boss
stating we lived on property in the
manager's living quarters. Everyone in creation
accepted it. NOT THE FRIGGIN LIBRARY!!
Like we were borrowing gold or something and not
just some dang stupid books!

And GET THIS!
As I storm out of there fed up with the BS,
my loving husband. The man we all
know as the Commander said to the woman,
"Do not mind her, she is from New York."

UGH Men!

So completely ticked, we leave there, sans cards
or books and head to the Family Dollar.
Many cheap but needed purchases were made.
From there the quandary as to what was for lunch.

Grrrr...The Commander decided on some
Wee Nee Wagon. Needless to say, I was not
exactly thrilled with the idea of eating in the
damn Red Baron. Nor was I thrilled with the idea
they did not make french fries. Which only
completes a meal when you are enjoying
some crappy food to begin with.


Then it was on to the movies.
I had wanted to see Definitely, Maybe.
We ended up seeing Semi Pro.

Now I will tell you all now.
The movie is the usual Will Farrel fare.
Stupid with nonsensical crap and a few chuckles
interspersed here and there.
The Commander of course liked it.

And so it was back to the LoveTel.
To watch an awesome hockey game where
the Blackhawks thoroughly trounced the Ducks.
GO BLACKHAWKS!

And to make this all legal...

Here is my HNT for this week!



As the Commander says..

"I am a slave to my keyboard."

Happy HNT All!

HNT & Bytchfest!

Yes! I am back! Sorry peeps for not posting lately.
I have been preoccupied with other things.

For instance, yesterday was our day off.
Yes a whole day off from dealing with
putzes that could not fight their
way out of a paper bag.
The Commander and I had
plans to wake early
(well early for us on a day off lol)
Go out have some breakfast at this
place our boss had spoken of, then do a few errands
and maybe take in a movie.

Now I do not like to go to the movies. I have always
felt going to the movies was a rip off. It is expensive,
you have to deal with sitting uncomfortably, and
the people. Crying kids, phones, yelling and simply
deal with the idiots that are known as
belligerent, inconsiderate P.I.T.As.
I prefer to wait at home for NetFlix DVDs.
Sit in my chair, eat or drink food that does not
cost an arm and a leg, and yes, smoke a cigg
if the feeling comes over me.
BUT, we thought about it and decided to join the ranks of the
twits that go and spend a fortune to see a movie.
Now the night before we had looked online to see
what movies were playing at a certain theater.
Nothing the Commander wished to see, even
though there was one or two I would have enjoyed.
So we went to bed with happy thoughts in our heads.

Upon waking to a playful Commander, I came down to our office
to peruse the internet and check my various screen
names for mail. Most of which I assure you is junk.
No one mails me anything good lately.
After waking up we got ready and headed out. A little later then
we had wished, but still, who cares? It is our day off! So
we head to this restaurant that our boss had told us of.

Alright, here are my complaints about this place...

The food though filling was not satisfying.
The waitress...get this...
Pretty much ignored the fact that I was there.
Anything I asked for, was set down before Wil.
I mean anything. I asked for ketchup, she set it before
him. I asked for a pop, she set it before him. I asked for a straw,
again, it was set before him.
Are we seeing a pattern here???Yeah.
The Commander of course saw nothing wrong with this.
But he is a man and like most, thinks with the little head..
(no pun intended Love)
I think the Commander has said in one of his previous posts
that he and I have certain likes and dislikes when we
venture out and sit in a place to be served. Now I worked as a
waitress for a couple years when I was younger,
thinner and not so old feeling. There were certain rules
I followed and ended up having a following. Literally.
I was tipped very well because I foresaw my
customer's needs and my bosses loved me for I would get these
people to order more food then they could possibly eat.
Unlike the twits that now don aprons and pretend to serve us, the
clients. I would never dream of ignoring anyone. Especially the
female counterpart of a couple. Nor would I dare set down the
check before they finished eating. God no.
So, the Commander and I finished our omelettes and looked at
one another and both of us said it. It was filling but, neither of us
had that "Ahh..yeah that was good" feeling. Very
disappointing to say the least. But at least we tried it.
Now I get to tell our boss his choice in
restaurant sucks a$$.
So we left the restaurant and went to sit in the Red Baron
and light up those ciggs and discuss what to do next.
After a few puffs and comments back and forth,
we decided to do a few errands we
needed to complete then go to the movies.
What the hell, right?

Well, the Commander chose "There Will Be Blood"
I will tell you all right now.
DO NOT WASTE 2 HOURS!
This movie sucked big time.
For the first 30 minutes, not one word was spoken.
Then we had to sit through an hour and a half of boring scenes
that seemed to go nowhere. Only one scene was mildly exciting,
then it was left hanging like a limp noodle.

So, we left there and again sat in the Red Baron and just...
sat there.
Thoroughly disappointed. Not just by what lame food we
had consumed but the movie as well. This was not a day we had
enjoyed so far. Can we say SHIPWRECK?
So that is my bytchfest for the week.
And to make this completely legal,
here is an HNT for everyone to enjoy!
This is what it looks like when a calf muscle bursts.
