Law, Order, and a Side

Friday, February 6th, 2009

Welcome back!

I’ll have a side of slaw with that, please. Oh wait what I just said doesn’t make any sense does it?

Well, I was just funning around with that. Someone I care about just got 10 years probation. Considering what he could have ended up with, that is a blessing. Now it is up to him what he does with it. He didn’t need immigration attorneys, or any fancy footwork. He just needed a second chance.

Many times today, people are not granted a second chance. Too many lives have been wasted, or lost. Our justice system is far from perfect since it is ruled by people, and for people. People are not logical critters. Sometimes emotions get in the way when the emotions are very strong. Do not get me wrong. I am not wanting people to become emotionless robots, just not so uncontrolled in their own responses. I have been blessed in that I have never had the need for legal intervention in my life. I pray that it never does become necessary. At least I realize that in our country, second chances can be gotten.

I’m in a Hurry

Friday, February 6th, 2009

How many times lately have you heard some one say that they are in a hurry?

Yuck. It is not a fancy word, but….yuck. People are always rushing to and from places and not looking around them. They go in one building and out another. They rush from car to bus to train. They look down at their Hublot watches and hurry to the next place.

Yes, I do like to arrive on time for appointments. I myself do not like to be late. I just sometimes feel that we forget to look around us and actually see what is around us each day. I am not saying that we should forgo keeping time - heaven forbid it. However, when we do look at our watches, couldn’t we at least be thankful that we do have time? How nice to actually be happy to see the watch on our wrist, or in our hand and think - Isn’t it nice that I have time to …..whatever?

Entertainment Tonight

Friday, February 6th, 2009

Imagine this…..you have a wonderful entertainment area set up. You have home theater chairs, a huge big screen tv, snacks beyond imagination, and time.

What would you do with it? Super Bowl? Rose Bowl? Potato Chip Bowl?

If I had all of that arranged, I would not want anyone to get their snacks all over my beautiful entertainment area. Forget the snacks, get out the vacuum and the broom. Take your snacks into the kitchen and when you are done, then you can come into my special place. I guess it would kind of defeat the purpose of it wouldn’t it? All I can do is snicker when I think of the view on the faces of those who want to really use the entertainment center the way it was designed. I would be a kill-joy to do such a thing. However, the urge to surprise someone and then finally let them know that I was teasing….. :)

Shame on me.
