Happy Memorial Day

I don’t care if you disagree with why our military is where it is. I don’t care if you hate the politicians that sent them there. I don’t care if you hate everything the military stands for. What I *DO* care about is that you remember who fought and died for the freedom that you enjoy. The country you live in exists because of the United States Military and if you can’t even acknowledge that they fought for YOUR rights then I invite you to get the hell out of this country.

Things that tick me off…

There’s a bunch of them, but this is the current one.

“…two people familiar with the probe told The Associated Press. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to talk publicly about the breach in surveillance.”

If you aren’t allowed to talk about something, don’t talk about it. “Condition of anonymity” is bullshit. It doesn’t make it okay. There is usually a reason that only certain people are allowed to talk about something publicly. Like, they know all the facts and you don’t. Or, you might be compromising the investigation by running your mouth.

If you had to speak under condition of anonymity, it’s because you KNEW you weren’t supposed to say anything. Don’t look like a jackass, compromise investigations and potentially put people’s lives in danger. Simple. Just say “no comment” or “I’m not at liberty to say anything about that” or “I can’t comment about an ongoing investigation.” So help me, if I was in charge and caught the idiot who opened his mouth, I would fire him.

Slow

Okay, I know I haven’t been posting. I’m sorry. I’ve been busy at school and have some other things going on that I won’t go into just yet. There are a few more people I need to talk to before I mention them here.

But school is almost over and hopefully I’ll be posting more! The main problem is that I simply don’t have a very interesting life.

You guessed it…

Mississippi failed to pass the animal cruelty bill. In the Great State of Mississippi, you can torture, mutilate, maim, burn, starve, disfigure, or kill any animal and be guilty only of a misdemeanor. Only dog fighting is a felony. You can fight anything else you like for a misdemeanor.

Eventually

Eventually, we all turn into our mother, or father, as the case may be for some.

Not that this is necessarily a bad thing. My mother is a hard-working, intelligent woman who had a full time job and raised two daughters. She invested wisely, has a beautiful house and travels around the world. We could all hope for that.

It’s the little things that I’m referring to. When I was young, whenever one of us made the critical error of announcing we were bored, her first response was always “go clean your room.” And we needed to, but we’d never learn from that, and still insisted on saying we were bored.

Last week David had a kindey infection and was off work, and called me up to say he was bored. My response? “Go clean your guns.”

Yes, I have turned into my mother.

Eggs!

We have eggs! At least one of my hens has started laying. I’m not sure how many, since David hasn’t checked for eggs in a few days. With three hens, I expect two eggs a day. I’ve been waiting for eggs for months, and now I have them! I imagine in a few months I’ll be quite sick of eggs…

More Animal Cruelty

In Mississippi, this jackass would be charged with a misdemeanor.
