OK, I've been seeing these DTV commercials since last year when they first started them. It's not only commercials but a ticker at the top of the screen all freakin' day long. Thank goodness I don't have to see that while watching my shows at night.
If you don't have a TV then you don't know what I'm talking about but basically it says that if you use an antenna to watch TV you have to buy a digital converter box and you can get a coupon from the government who is forcing this upon everyone for a free box. The cable companies are even offering a very basic cable for $10 a month which is unusual. I was paying $55 a month for basic cable which was 2-77 so I'm sure that $10 cable is 2-13 and all the UHF stations like PBS and the Spanish channels.
They were saying that you have until February 19th or somewhere around there to get this box or you will get static on the tv. Well, now they've decided to postpone it until June 12th. Well, that's good for all the procrastinators out there but it's not good for those of us who are well prepared because we gotta hear about it for another 5 months. Can we please just stop these commercials and tickers? Or if not stop them just limit them to 1000 times a day lol. I mean come on, I am so sick of hearing about it. I get it. Put billboards up and quit interrupting my shows with your tickers.
A lot of the commercials are from Bright House cable telling me that I am taken care of because I have Bright House Cable but that I need to tell all my Antenna friends to upgrade. Please stop these commercials lol. I don't want to keep hearing about it. Oh and after June 12th they are going to continue the commercials for another year telling me to tell all the people who don't get a signal anymore to get cable lol.

Caylee Anthony Memorial
The Caylee Anthony memorial was today and Casey had the opportunity to watch it on tv but she didn't even ask for it. What the heck is wrong with this woman? Is she that deranged that she won't even watch her own daughters funeral service?
Doesn't she know that every action has a consequence? By not requesting to watch it on tv she is implicating herself even more because had she watched it and cried the jury would see that she has at least some remorse for murdering her own daughter and they wouldn't be so harsh on her. Or it would've shown the jury that maybe she didn't do it. Who knows.
At least by watching it she would've shown the jury and the public that she doesn't have a heart of stone or ice.

14 Children
There is this story that everyone is talking about. This woman who is unemployed and not married had 6 children but she is addicted to having children. I believe that she had all of her first 6 children via fertility doctor. I know that she went back to the fertility doctor for her other 8 kids that she had all at once. Apparently they were all frozen and she didn't want them to go to waste so she had them all put inside her.
That is a quote from The Associated Press, yes, I admit, I googled it for this blog.
This woman's mother is so upset with her for doing this because she doesn't have any help and expects her mother to help her. There is only so much help a mother can give to her daughter who now has 14 children. But what gives her the right to have 14 children with no job and no husband? She sent her story to all these companies like Pampers and Gerber because she wanted free diapers and free baby food. They apparently had no sympathy for her because they didn't respond to her. I don't blame them because her story is a liability to them. They can't afford to be associated with someone who is abusing her god given right to have children and also abusing the system.
If she has no job and no husband, how is she supposed to support all these children? Welfare? Exactly! She is putting her dilemma on the state. So every 1 of my readers (which is me) gets to pay to raise her children.
I was watching Chelsea Lately tonight on E! and she said why is it that this woman can have 18 children but gay people still can't get married? The audience and 2 of her 3 panel members were clapping. The 2 clapper were women, the other one was a guy who is obviously homophobic since he didn't clap.
You have to be secure with your own sexuality to be comfortable with gay people I guess. I know lots of straight people who are rednecks who are the last people you would think would be gay friendly but they are. So think about that. How did this go from 14 children to gay people? LMAO!
"The Web site posted photographs from inside Angela Suleman's disheveled three-bedroom home, where Nadya and her brood also live. Heaps of clothing pour from an open closet door and a carpeted bedroom, where a bed sheet serves as a curtain, is cluttered with cribs."

Mickey Rourke Retraction
I was just watching Mickey Rourke on Larry King and I didn't realize what a rough time he's had and I apologize for what I said about him in an earlier blog about you know, what the f happened to him and I may have allegedly said something about bad plastic surgery. I don't recall.
The poor guy lost his marriage, wife, respectablility and he says he had to fall all the way down for him to get back up. I have a lot of respect for him. He is a great actor and has a great personality and I wish him only the best of luck.

Paranormal State
I was laying in bed watching tv and I had the History channel on most of the day watching these shows about the universe, about space and technology etc. But that marathon ended and I didn't want to watch what was on afterwards so I looked at the guide and found Paranormal State on A&E so I changed it to that.
I think there was maybe 2 hours that I saw, 4 episodes. It was ok, a bit too much for me though. I much prefer watching Ghost Hunters and GHI. At one point in the basement of a church this guy was in the bathroom and all of a sudden the guy fell he was pushed I guess, I don't know but you could see the camera falling with him. He was so freaked out that he couldn't even speak when they asked him if he's ok.
I've been there I guess, you are just in shock, you can't move, you can't even speak, your brain is working overtime trying to figure out what the heck just happened to me that you can't form the words. You just need a minute or 2. I probably would've been all HELLO! HELLO! CAN YOU HEAR ME? LOL I'm a jerk. But if that happened to me and I couldn't speak I'd actually like someone to snap me out of it so I can tell them what happened.
I guess it's a good show, I just prefer watching Ghost Hunters.

Digital Mail
No I don't mean e-mail. I mean scanning all of my paper mail into pdf files. See, the thing is, I'm afraid that if I don't keep my mail as documented proof of whatever then I need it then I'll be screwed. So I've been keeping all my bills and invoices since 1996. Starting with Bank of America Statements.
I have tons of stuff like credit reports, medical records and invoices and whatever, publisher's clearing house invoices, cable bills etc. All this stuff is just piling up and overwhelming so I've decided that it would be so much easier if I could just scan it all and make folders like Bank of America and Social Security and Bright House etc. Then just make the files like bank of america jan 2000 etc.
I've been seeing commercials for Kinko's that they will scan all your paper documents and put them on a cd for you so you can throw out all that stuff. I think I can do it on my own thank you. I think it's a very good idea too, I can keep these files on a hard drive website for safe keeping just in case there is a fire and my computer dies along with all my cd's. Although then I risk hackers getting all my information lol. You are never safe I swear lol.
I don't know, I'm thinking about getting a flash drive that I can just put it all on and keep it in a safe place. I would like to get a fire proof safe to put all of my pictures in along with flash drives of the pictures. Or maybe a small fire proof safe for storing flash drives. That would be cool yes? Or if there is a fire all I have to do is grab all the flash drives and get the heck out of the house. Hopefully they would all be water proof.
