About That Obama Money

I Want My MacBook to do That!!!

How Cool!!

Time to be Thankful

I was going to try to write something profound in this space, but while I try to fold the wings under the turkey like Martha Stewart told me, I can’t think of anything profound to dictate to the little computer sitting on the countertop. So, I give you the things I am thankful for on this Thanksgiving.

1. My children

2. My wife

3. My four sisters and one brother

4. Grandma and Uncle Bill

5. My little and big nieces and nephews

6. Having a goofy dog

7. Having my home

8. Having my job

9. Having food

10. Having ancestors who had the foresight to keep our family history alive in written documents and photographs.

It seems I have a pretty basic list. I don’t require much from life. Just the basics and the ones I love. So, think about your list and have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Dirty Sheryl????

Now, some of you already know that I am mosttimes the King of Absolutely Worthless Trivia, and today I came across a piece of trivia that surprised me.

Sheryl Crow is Dirty Diana!

The hot chick walking through the Michael Jackson video is Sheryl Crow, who, at the time, was one of his backup singers. This was always one of my favorite Jackson videos – mainly for the hot chick walking through the video – And now I know why! Because, directly behind my Number 1 & Number 2 favorite Hot Chicks of All Time, Stevie Nicks and Jolene Blalock, respectively, is Ms Crow.

Joe Jackson Needs Support – - – Really?

Jackson family pimp, umm father, Joe needs some of the former King of Pop’s estate to come his way. It seems Grandpa Joe squandered all the money he received during his son’s life and now, according to court records, deserves to continue to be supported after Michael’s death, to the tune of some $15,000 per month.

According to the LA Times, ole pimp Joe’s attorney said:

“He does not have a regular or steady source of income, and he was dependent upon the money provided by his son, Michael Jackson, through his wife, Katherine Jackson, for his support,” attorney Brian Oxman wrote. He said in an interview that the amount the singer paid to his parents when he was alive far exceeded what Katherine Jackson is currently getting.
“She’s receiving sufficiently less….When Michael passed away, the money stopped,” he said.

What a piece of work! You live off your kid for his entire life, the kid dies and you want your cut of your grandchildren’s inheritance. I’m really hoping the judge dismisses this stupid filing and someone makes Joe get a job. I don’t care whether he’s 80 or not. He needs to cut his living expenses back to the realm of reality and try to live like a real human being.

Who Gets to Judge Kate?

I’ve never been much of a fan of Kate Gosselin. What the hell am I saying? I think she could explode a guys balls with a hard stare….but I digress.

It appears that there are those in broadcasting power who want to give her and a handful of other ladies a talk show. They supposedly shot a pilot last month and are working toward shopping it out.

TV Guide, being more timely than me, released this story about mid September, and the comments ensued. Most of the comments were less than friendly toward the mother of eight. I, on the other hand, had completely different thoughts.

1. To the moron who thinks the Gosselins are rich. Wrong answer. Having $230,000 in the bank, being unemployed and having eight children, does not wealthy make.

2. Going back to nursing will NOT make enough money to support eight children. Do you know how much a nurse makes? That is not going to provide for eight children.

3. Those who think she belongs at home with her children at all times are probably the same people who would bitch profusely if she did and collected welfare.

4. To those who believe being a talk show host is not work, you need to try the job before you judge it. What do you think 14 hour days are? A Clue? Work! If it was so easy, wouldn’t we all be talk show hosts?

While I think parties should be held across the globe the day this woman and her family are no longer on television, I am also a realist to her prospects. She needs to work to support herself and her family. It is readily apparent that her soon to be ex-spouse isn’t out flipping hotcakes at Denny’s to pay for his brood.

Until people walk a mile in this woman’s knock off Choo’s, they really need to leave her alone, right now. Let her find a job. Let her try to make a living off of something other than the byproducts of her womb. And, give her a chance to screw up her kids as much as our parents screwed us up and we are screwing up our own children.

Hating Like A Virgin?

God knows, Madonna’s virginity probably ended about the same time as the Nixon regime,…errr…presidency, so there could be some angst. But according to the Material Girl, she would need somewhere in the neighborhood of $30 million to perform either Like A Virgin or Holiday, again. What an arrogant though from Madge!

Let me assure you, in my opinion, no matter how much I used to want to bang her in the 80’s, there isn’t a chance in hell I would want to see her Crypt Keeper looking self in the clothes from either of the videos. She was hot then, she ain’t now.

However, I also don’t understand why she would so hate these two songs. Or maybe, she just hates looking at the sea of middle aged, saggy, people who were there in the beginning? You know, those of use who made her rich? Maybe, she can recall how long ago she was like a virgin. I know, from this videos, I forgot how hot she USED to be when we were both much younger!

I think she has also tried to forget that in some ways she’s forgotten that she was a voice in our generation. While most of the music she did was completely commercial, how many of us can remember Crazy for You as an anthem for some teen relationship?

I don’t care what Ms Ciccone thinks, however, I still like the songs and the memories they recall, especially of a particularly hot girl a year ahead of me in high school, some 25 years ago. She was the one Crazy for You was for!

The Picture Banned by Findagrave.com

Paul Eugene Brown as an infant, circa 1910

This picture of my second cousin has been removed by findagrave.com twice. It apparently does not meet the standards of the site. I am amazed that they cannot believe that the man was ever an infant or was someone other than the coach of the Cleveland Browns and the owner/coach of the Cincinnati Bengals.

Wild Horses from Susan Boyle

What an incredible talent and a beautiful story.

What’s Wrong With This Moron?

Kanye West proving, once again, how big of a twat he really is!

Again, Kanye West makes an ass of himself at the VMAs. This time during Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech.How big of a loser do you have to be to screw up someone getting an award? Such a douchebag!

It really takes a washed up loser like West to destroy a young girls moment like that. I am really sick of this idiot and his opinions. In watching the video, you can see no one, not even West, has a clue as to what is going on. How does this low life even end up on stage?

Why do they bother to invite this idiot to any public events? When someone sees his name on a list shouldn’t they question it?

West was removed from the building after being a waste of flesh and he later apologized on his blog for being a moronic congnac laced loser to Swift.
