Welcome back!

I am not digitally minded. I guess that i have mentioned this many times in the past.

They now have things that make paperback books not necessary. You can even go to netbook reviewsand check things out.

I, quite frankly, enjoy holding a book in my hands. I do not like the idea that a power outage, a bad battery, or a magnet could erase something that I have not finished reading.

I am still analog when it comes down to it. I enjoy my computer, but there are still things that it does that I just do not trust.

What is a netbook anyway?? I have no idea.

I am complaining about commercials again. Fair warning

There are two main types of commercials on television these days. One gives warm feelings, annd the other leaves me with a chill inside that people actually think that it is okay to put such stuff on the air.

WARM The most recent warm one involved a man wanting to propose to his lady. he realizes that she loves cats, gets a kitten and puts a little tag on the kitten that asks her to marry ‘them’. Kudos for Fancy Feast, that commercial is cute, warm and caring.

CHILLED A woman is interviewing some sharks and asking them about the taste of people they have eaten. They like a certain one who tasted better. She lets another person into the room, the sharks tell him to go ahead and finish his candy bar…….WHAT are they doing? Are they condoning human sacrifice to advertise Snickers? Shame

A friend of ours got some business cards made up for our ministry.

He went to an online printing service, and had them made. They are rather neat and have some color to them.

It is totally amazing what can be done online now. When I was younger (a lot younger), the internet was something that was used only by businesses, and the military.

Who would ever have thought that ordinary people, ev3en kids would make the internet their main way to communicate?

It is getting closer to the next election day.

The TV is loaded with all of the hated political ads that can be found. This politician says the other is lying, that politician says the other is not paying their taxes, blah blah blah. PHOOEY

I remember when there was such a thing as truth in advertising. Surprising ain’t it?

It obviously no longer exists. I wish that the media would have to show the facts for each candidate in an open manner where things could be surveyed side by side at the same time. The newspapers used to do that and it made it easier to notice the liar in the crowd.

Now, I am not so sure.

Have you seen how the media has been talking about those supposed ‘humanitarian’ blockade ships?

It sounds as if the media want us to feel sorry for those who knew ahead of time that they should not try to invade Israeli waters. There is a port set aside for any, ANY, aid that comes for the Gaza strip. This shows why the items being sent are being inspected.

Right now, I am not being political. I like giving my opinions, though. Politics have enough time on the TV these days. I think that other things need some promotional products of their own.

Some of the commercials that can be seen on TV can actually be entertaining. There is one where a good looking guy is sitting backwards on a horse. I cannot remember the product though, because I am usually too busy looking at the guy and wondering how he can keep a straight face while riding backwards. Good actor I guess.

I still miss the chihuahua who was talking and selling stuff. Cute is good, anoying is not good.

Everywhere that I look on the TV right now, there are political ads everywhere, everywhere….did I say EVERYWHERE?

This man says this, that man says that……noise, noise, NOISE!

I am an opinionated fat broad and even I don’t have as many opinions as the politicians do in all of their ads.

I know that they are trying to get elected, I just wish that they would tell the truth.

OOPS, if they did that they would not get elected….would they?

Am I the only one who feels that the political course of our country has been side tracked by the media frenzy that goes with elections?

Ok, I have been reading. I have been watching.

There are so many people that do not want Obama-care that it is unreal. The news talks about the protesters. The politicians ignore those speaking out. People from other countries are making comments. The BBC website has a lot of comments.

What I do not hear is a reasonable way to fix things. Politicians in control of our health created Medicare and Medicaid. Politicians are the ones who have helped this country into having a hard time financially, not just the investors, banks, and stock brokers alone. Why would we want them in charge of our collective health? Remember, they have their own health-care system. They would not suffer.

Have you ever noticed how people will give names to events or places?

Sometimes it can be amusing, sometimes it can be very irritating. The word ‘Watergate’ always made me think of a dam that had floodgates in it. The nick-name for the St. Louis arch - ‘Gateway to the west’ - made me think of a corral. Westgate believe it or not is not the same as the arch.

WW1 and WW2, who decided that those two wars should have numbers on them? I mean that there have been so many wars in this world that the number could in reality be much higher. Nick-name are something that we all deal with. In high school my nick-name was AWOL. (I was caught cutting class.) The media is one of the sources of those infamous name that are stuck on things.

What is with the names? I guess it makes it easier to remember than just putting dates on everything. Sort of like the war of 1812? or not.

Yes, Pres. Obama was on the TV tonight. I watched it.

I still have questions about health insurance when you do not have any money. That question was not answered for me and probably for others, too. I guess that I could always invest in short term health insurance NC. However, like I said, I do not have money.

Here in Central Texas, we have a hospital that has special programs for those without money. I know in Arkansas, they have no programs like that. How about in other states? I just hope that when all is said and done, the special programs to help those without money are not stopped.
