My cave, my safe place where I can rant. These are simply MY opinions. They make me feel better when I am down. I can be as batty as I want to be. Please come rant with me about the things we can not change.
I have all but given up on what used to be one of my favorite shows, The Daily Show with John Stewart. It was unbearable to watch during the elections, I couldn't take the constant slams to Sarah & the Bush administration. It was my choice to stop watching. It's cool, but I thought the show would start up on the new administration. They didn't. We're still slamming the republicans. I was there, laughing about Bush, just like everyone else. But now I want to laugh at Obama & his administration. Turnabout is fair play. So now I know that the Daily Show is not about just pokin' fun at politics, it has an agenda. How sad. I do love to laugh.
I never understood the double standard either Kel. But it reminds me of a joke I heard.
After church in Minnesota one day a couple of the guys were outside joking around telling Hans and Sven jokes, when the pastor overheard and went over and said " now look fellas, I like a good joke as well as the next guy but these "Norweigan" jokes have got to stop, you can't make fun of any kind of people." Fella #1 askes "well how about a polish joke?" "no" says the pastor. Fella #2 asks " well how about a Hittite joke?" The pastor thinks about it a while and says "ok, since there are no more Hittites in the modern world I think you could tell a Hittite joke without offending anybody, so lets hear your Hittite joke" Fella #2 says " OK there were these two Hittites,... Hans and Sven...."
Ha ! its still funny.
The Dems need to loosen up and learn to laugh at themselves as much as they laugh at the republicans.
Todays question. It is a local one. Is there an organization here in Sidney who can help the poor,homeless, jobless? I have been providing a roof and food for a young man who is homeless and indegent. One impulse is to simply boot him out, but I worry that he has no where to go. I was able to assist him in getting a social security card & ID so he can work. His verbal skills & ADD seem to hold him back when searching for employment, which needs to be walking distance. This kid does not want to be a burden on us, and is at a loss as to where to go. What would you do?
Howdy folks, I am a middle aged married working mother of 2. I enjoy long walks in the rain and polly tics. I am just an average citizen trying to make it day to day.
I enjoy learning something new and I am not afraid to admit I am wrong. I would like to share my years of wisdom and stupdom. I have a strong tribe of wonderful men and women who have counciled me through the years, and I would like to share their knowledge with you. My tribe is your tribe. With love and respect.

ReplyDeleteI disagree. So Nanner Nanner Poo Poo !
ReplyDeleteBut then again I am the resident Commie.
I don't understand why I can laugh at Bush, but we're not allowed to laugh at Obama. Has there been a line drawn in the comedy sand?
ReplyDeleteEn garde?......
