Manic Monday

The Bangles….What a group. Manic Monday is a great song. Girls where are ya when we need ya?

 

Ok, now that you know what is currently flowing across my speakers, lets get on with today’s post. Don’t you get a little tired of the bad news that the media throws at us. Some fruit cake in Texas takes out his ex-wife and an innocent bystander over custody. The cops, rightfully so, ventilated his ass. Why does the media choose to tell us this? Why don’t we hear about this shit coming out of the inner city? Why do we hear about it at all? Aren’t there bigger news stories that can be reported, or at least ones that will make us feel decent about being a member of the human race?

 

Happy news, my son has slowed down on the dinosaur craze. He is now over the top for Thomas the Tank Engine train sets. WARNING to ALL PARENTS. This train thing will make you go broke in a heartbeat. The kids love the trains, play with them for hours, but we now have enough track to circle the earth approx. 4.3 times. Dang the THOMAS!!! Dang thee to Heck!

 

Things I hate today: Still stuck on the John Kerry bumper sticker issue. What really got me going was a Wellstone sticker. If you don’t know who Wellstone was, he was a relatively decent Senator for Minnesota. He and several members of family and staff died tragically in a plane crash. But people STILL have Wellstone stickers on their cars. I almost expect them to be sporting #3 stickers and have NASCAR stickers. I understand tributes. Build a statue, donate to a worthy cause in the persons name, but give me a friggin’ break with the bumper stickers.

 

Anyway, that’s my rant. Peace : Out
