What Happened to All the War Protesters?

Sun, 29 Nov 2009 04:06:15 GMT

I was watching a video of Cindy Sheehan protesting at a military base.

Cindy lost her son in the war in Iraq and became a symbol for the left and their opposition against the war. She is also protesting the war in Afghanistan. She stuck a mic in a veteran's face and yelled at him. You can check out the video. He slapped the mic away from her. Here is the link: Link

I have a hard time speaking against Cindy because she lost her son in a war and I think that her pain has caused her to go to an extreme. But the one thing about Cindy is that she is consistent. She is against the U.S. going to war.

It is odd that all the Democrats that were against the war are gone.

Clearly we are sending more troops to Afghanistan. It sounds like about 30,000-35,000.

Are the Democrats inconsistent for not protesting the war in Afghanistan?

Tiger Woods and Domestic Abuse

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 23:39:45 GMT

TMZ is reporting that Tiger Woods received his injuries to his face from his wife and not from his car accident.

According to their source, his wife confronted him about "reports that he was seeing another woman." After arguing, she scratched his face. He then got in his car and she struck the vehicle with a golf club. Here is the link: Link

Obviously we don't know what happened. I wonder how the media will cover the story and whether they will blame her or him if any of this is true.

I was a medical photographer in the military and I had to take photos of spousal abuse situations. I had to take photos of women all the time but I did take photos of men who had been abused. It is interesting that a man generally has to be seriously injured in order to report domestic abuse.

I have a general theory that women are just as violent as men but they do not have the power to carry out their violence. So most of them know it is unwise to even come at a guy with a club because in most situations they will still lose that battle. In other words, I do not believe that men are more violent than women but men are just stronger for the most part.

Do you think men are biologically more violent than women?

Creepiest Santa

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 12:24:55 GMT

My daughter no longer believes in Santa. She is about to turn six in January. We were watching a program tonight and the people were hiding gifts under the Christmas tree and she knew that we were doing the same.

We told our first two kids there was no Santa but we decided to lie to the third one and see if she still turned out ok. We will keep you updated as this little experiment progresses.

Here are some creepy Santa photos I found on this site: Link

1. Santa One

2. Santa Two

3. Santa Three

4. Santa Four

5. Santa Five

6. Santa Six

Which Santa is the creepiest?

Robotic Hamster

Sat, 28 Nov 2009 01:41:23 GMT

Every year, an item becomes so popular at Christmas time that people are willing to fight to get the last item.

This year it may be the robotic hamster. It is being reported that two fights broke out in Indiana for the toy. When the toy is placed on the shelves, it is gone in ten minutes according to a store manager at Toys R Us. Here is the link: Link

Do you want a robotic hamster?

My Birthday With a Photo of Me

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 17:06:07 GMT

I turned 38 today. I am now halfway to 76 years old. The average age a person lives to in the U.S. is 78 and women bring up the average. So I am probably halfway to my death.

It is probably time for a midlife crisis but once again this year I am not up for it.

My hair is turning gray. I took a special photo of it here for you.

Do you think it is right when they say men look better with gray hair?

Breaking the Texting Code

Thu, 26 Nov 2009 01:24:18 GMT

I was just reading an article that was designed to help parents understand what their children were texting.

As I was looking at the text codes I was noticing that even though I knew some of them that most of them never show up in my IM conversations. It leads me to believe that my friends are not very exciting texters or IMers. Here is the link: Link

Here are the codes that parents are instructed to pay special attention to:

1 8 Oral sex

2 PAW Parents Watching

3 143 I love you

4 182 I hate you

5 KPC Keeping Parents Clueless

6 LMIRL Lets meet in real life

7 420 Marijuana

8 ADR Address

9 ASL Age/Sex/Location

10 Banana Penis

How many of the codes have you actually had in a text or IM conversation?

Turning 38 Years Old

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 01:25:23 GMT

Can I take a rare moment and complain? I am turning 38 in two days. So I will turn 38 on Thanksgiving Day.

Now I have never been big on birthday celebrations but I must admit that I always feel like I get stiffed on my birthday. I was raised poor so we didn't get much on our birthdays in fact a few years I didn't get anything. That never really bothered me but I feel like having a birthday near a major holiday causes some of us to get stiffed.

My birthday is always around Thanksgiving Day. So since the time I was growing up, we always celebrated my birthday in conjunction with the holiday. This probably sounds petty but everyone would gather together to celebrate the holiday and then sometime near the end they would suddenly bring out the birthday cake and sing Happy Birthday. It always felt like my birthday was tacked on to the end of the holiday celebration.

I am sure others have the same problem in fact a few of you have a birthday around Christmas.

I think because of this disappointment that I have always sort of downplayed my birthday. But for some reason today it is making me a little crabby.

Does your family make a big deal about your birthday?

Straight vs. Gay

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 12:24:26 GMT

People say that they just don't want to see anyone kissing. But I think that misses the point. Over 1500 people complained to ABC.

So lets be honest for a moment.

Does this kiss

make you feel more uncomfortable than this kiss

or this kiss?
