On the lighter side.

I have igoogle as my home page, and one of the things I have is the WikiHow  Sometimes I even look at it.  Well, one of today’s “how tos” was How to Make a Cat Bed from an Old Sweater.  You can click the link to read it, if you like.  It’s really fairly simple and they list 6 steps.

I’m debating (what with it being a Wiki and all and therefore with the ability to edit) whether or not I should go in.  Because it seems to me that they forgot one step.

Step 6 is … Give it to your favorite puppy/kitten ……

Step 7 Forget all of the above because kitten is going to sleep on the brand new sweater anyway.  Especially if kitty is shedding and sweater is Dry Clean Only.  Course it’s your own dang fault for getting Dry Clean Only clothes if you have a pet.

SHAME ON US!!!

I don’t think I talk much politics, and I don’t think I rant often, but today I’m compelled to make a comment.

I think it’s a mighty sad commentary on our society that we care more about what church Oprah quit 20 frigging years ago than we do how many soldiers have been killed overseas in the past 20 DAYS.

And, if you so choose, you can try to blame it on the “press” because after all the “press” are the folks that decide what gets published, but where is the outcry?  There should be DROVES of people (not just a few) telling the press that enough if f…………ing ENOUGH already and quit telling us what you WANT us to know and start telling us what we want to know.

And, an even more frightening thought is that it’s possible that the majority of people in this country really do care more about Oprah’s church going history than about the war or the economy or the environment or …

And if that’s the case than SHAME ON US!!!!
