Labor Day Ghosts

This morning September 7th 2009 starting at 8am will be a ghostly day for SyFy channel.  Ghost Hunters from 8am to 7pm then Ghost Whisperer from 7pm to 11pm.

These are a few of my favorite things hehe.  I just love Ghost Hunters and having a 11 hour marathon is awesome.

Then they are going to start showing Ghost Whisperer every Monday starting today from 7-11 so for those who missed it starting with season 1 they get another chance by being able to watch 4 episodes a week.  I watched it from the beginning plus I have it on DVD so I don't "need" to watch but that's not to say that I don't want to lol.

Personally I liked the first season of Ghost Whisperer because of Aisha Tyler.  She was the greatest most understanding person in the world.  If Melissa says that she sees ghosts then Andrea says "cool" lol.  "Hey no problem, I'm with you all the way".  Then she died...

I did (do) like "Delia" (Camryn Manheim) but not so much her attitude or close minded attitude towards Melissa's whole deal.  She tried to be supportive but she just refused to believe.  That is until last season when Jim died and she finally saw him in Sam then she realized omg, she's not crazy.

Oh well, at any rate I'm glad I get a whole day of ghosts YAY me lol.

Reality Hell

I watched this show today on E! called Reality Hell.  I've never seen it but it was hilarious.

This woman was put on what she thought was a dating show where there were other female contestants competing to win the affection of the guy and finally win the prize of being in a relationship with him.  Well after awhile they added 2 guys to the mix and then finally at the end at a dinner in a restaurant they brought in his ex named Stacey but Stacey was a guy lol.

At the very end the ex-boyfriend Stacey revealed to her that she was on Reality Hell and then laughter ensued.

What if you've never seen Reality Hell?  How would you know it was a joke if you'd never seen it before?

Well luckily she knew it was all a joke and she had a good laugh about it.

I liked it, it was funny.

Charge Your Gear Like Gilligan

Remember those old Gilligan Island episodes where Gilligan would be peddling on the bamboo bicycle so they could listen to the radio?  Well now this is reality.

Charge up your gadgets with pedal power while you bike

This is just the coolest idea.  Imagine riding your bicycle and you are charging up all of your gear, your iphone, ipod, psp, handlebar mounted gps system or say if you have one of those trailers I was talking about you could be charging up the battery to give the solar panels a bit of help because those solar panels can take forever to charge up a battery.  I have a little handheld solar charger that looks like the size of the phone in that picture and it takes a whopping 8 hours to charge.

This of course won't be available until March 2010 but I have all the time in the world.

You could be riding your bike all day long (long road trip) and while you are peddling you are charging up your main battery so when you get to your camp site you will have power for the rest of the evening and into the night so I can use my bipap machine and not die lol.  You can also watch some tv on your laptop (Hulu or if you have a tv tuner and it works without needing cable).  You can also have the light on and not feel like it's too dark.  That is a nifty idea.  Me likey.

By the way, the wheels are still turning on that trailer idea, I've got some new ideas I'm going to post tomorrow.  I really want to make this one if/when I ever get the money.  In order for me to be able to do it at all I need some money which means I need some people clicking ads or those green double underlined words in my site.  You don't have to commit to anything, just click and then close the website it takes you to.  I get paid for the clicks not for whatever you buy.  The more clicks I get the faster I will get a check and then I can start buying the supplies for my bike trailer.  My sister could use it stat since she's going to be homeless and refuses to live with me because she'd rather be homeless on the sand than live in Bakersfield lol.

Kathy Gosselin

If you didn't realize it by now I am a huge fan of Kathy Griffin.  She is the queen bee of all the gay... bees?  She makes me laugh so hard every time I see her on tv.

She's doing a skit for the Jimmy Kimmel Live show where she plays Kate Gosselin.  Check out those c-section scars lol.

I don't normally watch Jimmy Kimmel because I'm usually on SyFy or E! but I'm going to tune in to this and when it airs and this clip is on YouTube I will put it in here.

Griffin's skit – a spoof trailer for a fake biopic film called Kate is Enough: The Kate Gosselin Story – will air on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Sept. 9 ABC.

Wasp Spray for Protection

I got this email today about using Wasp spray instead of pepper spray.  I don't make it a habit of posting emails that were sent to me but I thought this was particularly interesting because of what Snopes had to say about it.  I wanted to see if it was true but it says Mixture.

It clearly states on the label of wasp spray "It is a violation of federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with it's labeling".  So right there it tells you that it's illegal to use this for anything other than killing wasps or bees.  Of course that is for their own legal benefit so that they don't get sued when people spray each other in the face with this stuff.

Whether the police department advocates using this is all dependent on your local city or state police policy.  It says in this email that it blinds you until you can get to the hospital for the antidote.  Which could take a long time especially if you are blind at the time.  If you are incapacitated how are you going to call 911 or drive to the hospital?

It also says in Snopes that robbers use it to incapacitate people so they can get your money easier so you don't resist and you can't run away.  I personally don't think that telling people about using wasp spray is a good idea because it's putting ideas into peoples heads which I guess I just did.

I didn't paste the email but it has a similar email in that snopes link so check it out and you decide.  Oh and by the way, the email I got today looks like it was changed because it's not the same exact email that is in that snopes article.  Interesting how emails change over time.

I pledge allegiance to the earth?

I pledge allegiance to the (record scratch) earth?  What?  I heard about this on a news channel.  I wasn't actually watching it, I was in the kitchen cooking dinner and Chip had the tv on the news and I heard someone talking about that and I didn't know what they were talking about.  All I heard was that they (whoever "they" are) are changing the pledge of allegiance from the flag to the earth and taking god out.  Well, isn't the belief that God created the earth?

This is a direct quote from the UUA.org who is a religious organization:

Vern Barnet

I pledge allegiance to the earth on which I stand,

I pledge allegiance to the earth on which I stand,
and to the environment of which I am a part,
one planet in a Process, with soil, water and air like one body,
indivisible, with resources to be cherished and protected by all.

Just to be clear, this is not new.  This is from April 16th 2008.  So why they are just now bringing it up is beyond me.  Personally I think this was meant for Earth day and not to change the pledge of allegiance for Americans.

First of all the word God is missing so I don't think the religious people would be too keen on taking God out.  2nd of all it doesn't mention the flag of the United States of America which is what the pledge of allegiance is all about so this must be specifically about Earth Day.

As an American, I don't want to see the pledge of allegiance changed.  I don't care whether the word god is in it or not, that doesn't bug me.  I think that whoever was talking about it on tv was just talking about it just to have something to talk about just as I talk about stuff just to have a reason to blog lol.
