Seasons do change. This doesn't happen in California. It's quite strange. Life remains vivid in the death of summer. Some toss around baseballs and footballs while others lounge on the grass. A lovely scene. Couples cutely walk through the autumnal bliss. Even Ezra and Andrew seem happy today. Their statuesque figures are warm and free from nature's torment, minus periodic spiteful birds. Life's curveballs lose their movement for brief moments. Anxiety aggraves unpleasant pathologies within my digestive system. I feel evil forces again. They're latent instead of overt. The conspirators can't come here to get me because they're already here. I try to move my mind back to the place of youthful innocence. Angry joggers take me away from it periodically on my walks. The pleasantness of this situation is a very tenuous equilibrium.

You appear through the mundane - a world of lines, libraries, and airplanes You leave me with no choice but to stare at your seductive green eyes and dark curly hair. You adorn yourself with mall-purchased clothing; olive pants and a white tank-top, from Abercrombie. I need to meet you and converse on a walk but have not the courage to you to talk You must adore film and The Doors and want to live in a California home with a jacuzzi and hardwood floors... However anxiety convinces me to let you remain a mystery

Freedom's shore approaches in the middle of the night. It is springtime and the sun signifies the youthful vibrancy of coupling and spiritual fulfillment. I presently feel oblivious to these elements. The experience of waiting continually intensifies. Anticipatory, nervous chills race through my spine. Rest is impossible on this solo journey. Thoughts of how love has failed me twice before render this state. Loneliness disturbs me for the first time in months. My mind races through thousands of slightly differentiated paths that are all mental aliases for my companionship needs. Waiting for the sun to come along. Waiting. Waiting. Daylight and chances to be happy taunt me through their absence. All will be well once this night is over. The destroys the night as the sun slowly rises. My seratonin levels increase and provide a settling chemical rush. I ask the sun what went wrong. Why did it not come sooner? It does not reply. It simply emanates more heat. The light energy then burns a message into the sand: learn to forget. Learn to forget? A crystal ship appears on the shore, apparently to take me away. The captain screams '1000 thrills! 1000 girls!' I jump aboard to be greeted by Jenna Jameson and a bottle of Cristal. Forgetting suddenly becomes much easier...

Everyone is starting to look alike; not quite identical; similar akin to different brands of bike My peers are such repetitive sights with the same clothes and the same hairstyles and the same tastes... They all share the same plight: too much time and money coupled with no need to fight These people do not think about survival - let alone ethics, morality, mankind or even whether everything seems uniform Alas, I am guilty as well I sport a generic haircut Overpriced designer jeans and grew up in a comfortable home in an upscale suburban hellhole And I wonder why our elders see us as herds

I found my work from my first creative writing course during my sophomore year of college. Its content accurately represents some of what was inside my head during that period of my life. In retrospect, I have mixed feelings about the quality of these pieces. They have many nuances that I now perceive as flaws. Yet, they were really fun for me to write, as well as therapeutic, back then. I hope that the readers of these short compositions gain something from their bizarre content.

Even though the game clock is not expired, it's safe to say that the Detroit Pistons are going to win the NBA Finals. Two minutes left, 98-79 in favor of Detroit. Four future hall-of-famers failed to meet expectations (especially Gary Payton). The Pistons simply played as a better team unit. May the Lakers revamp as a franchise and EARN an NBA Championship within the next few years. Management must find quality talent that is willing to play hard consistently. The end of their dynasty has come (some argue that it ended last year against the Spurs in the Western Conference Semifinals). At least my Dodgers (a regular source of disappointment), are up 4-0 and still in first place in the NL West (albeit by percentage points).

This year's NBA Finals is painful to watch at this point. Unless the Lakers become the first team in league history to come back from a 3-1 deficit, a team from one of the most miserable, decayed cities in the nation will gain championship rings. Another sad note for Los Angeles sports fans: Dodgers lost 4-1 today. Another bad outing for Hideo Nomo. He didn't make it through the fourth inning.

So, I've been up all night because my tempermental computer somehow corrupted my buddy's essay just before I could e-mail it to him - so I revised it twice (YUCK!). At least he'll get a higher grade on it than he would have otherwise received. Considering how bad I used to be about doing my own homework, it's ironic that the majority of my income is derived from doing the homework of others in one way or another. I'm continually hearing some sort of vibrating noise tonight. I keep thinking that it's my cell phone, but it's not (I've checked it multiple times already). I think it's coming from above. My new landlord is in the process of moving into the other side of the duplex. I'm definitely not the biggest fan of hers right now. Not getting into it. I just hope that it's a cell phone and not her battery-operated significant other that I'm hearing. If I keep hearing it, I'll totally have to move. I can't picture that broad with a real boyfriend. She's in her late 20s, really unattractive, teaches pre-school, and lives with her three cats. Why did she have to buy the place and kick out my chill, attractive neighbors so that she could move in? I don't think she could piss me off to the point where I'd rather live with my parents in Studio City, but one never knows. Gooodnight. P.S. Why, oh why, did the Nets blow the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the Pistons? GO LAKERS! P.P.S. Dodgers finally won today. Kaz Ishii is 8-3 with a 3.36 ERA right now, yet he has looked so much worse than those numbers seem. I hope DePodesta trades him while he's still overvalued.

If not for Kobe Bryant's ability to work miracles, the Lakers would be absolutely screwed in the NBA Finals at this point. Detroit had a 6-point lead with under a minute left of regulation and the Lakers, between Shaq and Kobe, somehow tied the game to send it to overtime. Fortunately, they manhandled the Pistons in OT, but they could easily be down 2-0. Given tonight's divine intervention, I still have faith in them to win this series, but the Pistons do technically have home-court advantage for the rest of it. It would thoroughly suck if the Eastern Conference won the Finals for the first time since the Chicago Bulls dynasty at the expense of Los Angeles. As Angelenos, we tolerate our Dodgers' ineptitude, live without an NFL team, and deal with the Clippers being perpetual losers. For the second largest media market in the country, we deserve one perennial champion. May the Lakers continue to serve that purpose.

As I work with more mathematics students as part of my tutoring job, I realize that I enjoy quantitative studies better than the liberal arts in many ways. Even topics I used to dread - such as Riemann sums, geometry, trigonometry, conic sections, and polar coordinates - now fascinate me. I enjoy solving such problems at this point. Not that I find the humanities boring and useless (so far from the truth), but simply that I wish I had a broader canon of knowledge (one can never know too much). Now I want to relearn multivariable calculus and finally attain a strong grasp on series representations of functions. I think that I'm going to study linear algebra at either a Cal State or community college in the fall so, if nothing else, I can tutor students in more advanced courses. I should also take some accounting courses in case I decide to pursue taxation or other numbers-oriented areas of corporate law. I took a slew of classes at Cornell and can think of several more years worth of undergraduate - let alone graduate - courses that I still want to take. Unfortunately, no graduate programs can accomodate all of my educational desires (as there is no single, or clear interdisciplinary, area of study in which I wish to attain a Ph.D). In spite of the need for gainful employment, I want to be some sort of student forever (at least whatever future career I choose will have a continuing education program). Being a teacher sucked as a job for me because I did not learn anything new that I found of value - I did not grow as a person from teaching English and science to unappreciative children with severe discipline problems. I became resentful because my students were really obnoxious and had attitudes that were incompatible with mine. One more line on a resume if nothing else, although I still have issues with my former employer (not getting into it until they are fully resolved). Tutoring is a better fit for me because I work with individuals instead of groups, make good money for my time, have a positive relationship with my employer, and feel as if I have accomplished something by the end of the day. Unlike in a classroom where discipline takes precedence over education, most of my students genuinely want to learn. They come to me because they have difficulty learning certain topics and I help them with the process. Truthfully, I like this work so much that I'd even do it as a volunteer. I continue to be outside of school as I figure out what to study next, so I'm wasting time that I could use for accredited education. I do learn a tremendous amount in the many hours of time I spend at home - I read several newspapers and magazines online, finished a couple of books recently, work on GMAT practice tests, and perceive my television viewing and mindless web browsing as writing research. Enough empty analysis for now. Will continue later.

Aside from that uber-bizarre episode with Tony's layered dreams, this entire season was most excellent. The FBI's active involvement contributes ample suspense to the chaotic lives of the families within the show. Since next season is the show's final one, it saddens me to think that Tony Soprano will either end up dead or in jail by the end of next season. He tries to act justly in a criminal underworld and abide by its rule of law. Yet, he is in embattled in a living nightmare with no clear escape route. I would love for Tony to avoid both stateside arrest and international extradition and live a wonderful life, but realize the writers will probably choose a different outcome. The show has strong moral overtones and will likely reconcile its closing content with a traditional value/criminal justice system.

Even though I am a Laker fan, the team really pisses me off in a lot of ways. -Four future Hall-of-Famers, half of whom perpetually underachieve (Shaq and Payton). -Kobe's legal problems (he most likely won't go to jail, but could play somewhere else next season). -A fairly weak bench (compare their reserves to those of the Spurs, Kings, Mavs, Wolves). -Lots of attitude problems. -Team might enter rebuilding phase after this season (unknowns for off-season personnel decisions). They were downright lazy until Game 3 of the Western Conference Semifinals against the Spurs and would not even be in the NBA Finals if not for divine intervention (the Derek Fisher buzzer-beater). In their defense, they have won 8 of their last 10 playoff games against tough opponents. Now they have home-court advantage against the Detroit Pistons and will find some way to win the series, barring injuries or an extended period of ineptitude. Four rings in five years. Very nice! Moreover, the Laker franchise (both Minneapolis and Los Angeles) has appeared in 48% of all NBA Finals and has won more championships than every other team in the league, minus the Boston Celtics. They are more dominant than the New York Yankees are in baseball. Bottom line: Relish Championship the Fourth under Phil Jackson. The future of the team will be desirable sooner or later. Addendum: How did they lose game one so handily at Staples Center? They better up their intensity for the rest of the series or else I'm going to Vegas to bet against them in this series - since they're the favorites, I'd stand to make a nice chunk of change (an ever-decreasing chunk, however, as the Pistons win more games).

I recently saw an Aladdin Bail Bonds commercial on television. No entertainment value. A bunch of clean-cut people blabbing about how they were arrested. No catchy song, no friendly corporate image. Bad Boys Bail Bonds, on the other hand, has the most hilarious radio commericals ever (especially on Power 106/100.3 The Beat). The commercial definitely has racial overtones, but it is still effective at reaching its target demographic group in Los Angeles County (you can figure it out). 'I'm gonna call my bail guy tonight...and get released...and go to the house...1-800-BAIL-GUY tonight...' I shouldn't joke about such matters. It is bad karma. Plus, I already know a bail bondsman.

Can a person still be a vegetarian/vegan if he or she swallows certain bodily fluids during oral sex with a male? My answer: Yes; otherwise, it would be impossible for a vegetarian/vegan to kiss another individual or to reproduce. Even though human fluids seem as though they are animal products, they are clearly pareve (neutral). Animal products such as fish and eggs are also pareve (making oral sex permissible for vegetarians - since eggs are gametes). In order to justify the act for vegans, however, a lesser scrutiny standard must be used. Since no killing occurs to produce consumable gametes, they should be treated like plants (a readily replenishable source of cells). Although this same argument can conceivably be used to justify the consumption of eggs and dairy products by vegans, that sort of logic seems flawed. If one consumes eggs and dairy products, he simply prevents the perpetuation of life. This concept should most certainly not bother vegans who are pro-choice and/or use birth control. The destruction of gametes (even potentially viable ones) has already been accounted for as morally acceptable to such individuals and, thus, should be permissible. However, if the vegan happens to be religiously observant (in any of the major religions), this ruling is null and void. It is highly unlikely that this specific vegan falls under this category since the question establishes her moral standing in the community and deserves privacy protections. And, no, I did not try to talk a vegan into giving me head, so don't ask.

My core realization for my period of blog inactivity is that I must continue to be a vocal advocate of personal liberty (as brilliantly articulated by Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, and others). If these sages' ideas are lost to the sands of time and freedom becomes equated with modern progressivism/collectivism, then society will be damaged in myriad more ways. We owe it to ourselves to protect our individual liberties and retain faith in the inner good of humanity. Were we to reach a point where society were 'fixed' through compulsory means, I doubt that most of us would be happy with such an outcome. The tyranny of a popular majority is not inherently better than the tyranny of dictatorship. In fact, a benevolent dictator would likely be preferable to the deconstruction of the rule of law via democracy.

Well, it seems that Alabama is not the only state having problems with religous monuments...In August, around the time that the Ten Commandments monument was moved out of the Alabama Judicial Building in Montgomery because of a federal judge's ruling that it was too much of a religious statement for government property, Ms. Blanca Castillo petitioned county commissioners in Fort Worth, Texas, to remove a statue in front of the county's administrative building because it was insulting of religion.

Well, it was our every day ordinary weekend. Not much happening here. I have been plagued by the butter in the shoes all weekend. What could that possibly be about?! I don't know, I hope one day to have that answer. Anyway, I was following the story about the twin urlLink Egyptian boys who were connected at the head. 2 years old and they were joined at the head. Apparently the surgery went very well and the prognosis is good. I really hope it all works out. I just can't even begin to imagine... So, urlLink Kill Bill came out this weekend. It hit number 1 right away. I really want to go see this movie, I love Quentin Tarantino. He looks at things so differently then most people. Very interesting guy. I have heard that it is extremely bloody and gory, he usually has a bit of that in his movies, but I guess he goes above and beyond in this one. The second part to this thriller comes out in February. Speaking of movies, I'm also anxiously awaiting The Return of the King. This is the third and final part of the Tolkien trilogy, urlLink The Lord of the Rings . It is due out in theatres on December 17th, that is a Wednesday and only 65 days away. But who's counting? Well, anyway, enough of the chit chat for this morning.

urlLink Stockholm, Sweden AP -- It's buttered sole -- but definitely not of the seafood variety. A couple hiking in the mountains of far northern Sweden found 70 pairs of shoes, all filled with butter. Officials have no idea who put the shoes there, or why. A provincial spokesman says the buttered footwear ranges from sneakers to boots. There are even butter-filled high heels and tap shoes. Each contains about a pound of butter. The province spokesman says they'd like to catch the person who did it and make them clean it up. He says it's going to create quite a mess when the butter starts to spoil. Officials say they'll wait for snow, so they can get a snowmobile into the area. Aliens? :)

OK, so my friend Tricia was reading this Blog and said 'What's all this about the Buckeyes and the BCS? What is it?' I said 'Tricia, you're such a girl!' :) So, I'm wondering, does everyone know what the BCS is and what I'm talking about? Let me give a few details and explanations just in case... So, it's all about College Football! The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association), the Ohio State Buckeyes and the BCS (Bowl Championship Series). I love College Football. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not a Superfan, I just enjoy watching it, and even more so when the Buckeyes are doing well. OSU is not my Alma Mater (I graduated from Kent State University, not much to watch in college football), but since I am from Ohio, I am by natural rights a Buckeye. urlLink Article from the NCAA News - includes a history of the BCS. So, long story short....Before the BCS there was never (or very rarely) a championship game. There would be a #1 team and a #2 team in the polls, but these 2 teams would not pair off and play each other. Therefore leaving an inconclusive National Champion. That's no way to end the season, who's to know what would happen if these top 2 teams would play? So the BCS guarantees that the top 2 teams will play each other in that years Championship bowl. Make sense? Another reason that the BCS was started was to make the rankings more subjective instead of objective, all of the other polls are ranked according to sport's writers, coachs and others, while the BCS is comp[uter generated on stats from each of the teams. So that's the quickie version of it, as far as I know it anyway...hope it clears things up.

Has anyone ever heard of this new 'sport'? Here is a blurb on it from the website: Geocaching is an entertaining adventure game for gps users. Participating in a cache hunt is a good way to take advantage of the wonderful features and capability of a gps unit. The basic idea is to have individuals and organizations set up caches all over the world and share the locations of these caches on the internet. GPS users can then use the location coordinates to find the caches. Once found, a cache may provide the visitor with a wide variety of rewards. All the visitor is asked to do is if they get something they should try to leave something for the cache. Anyway, I've stumbled upon this awhile back and I've always wanted to go get a GPS system to do this! It sounds like a lot of fun to me, a treasure hunt! They are all over the US and we could do it while we were traveling, or just take a weekend and do it around here. Check this out and let me know if you are interested, we could start doing this, great Christmas gift idea...

OK - so much has been going on lately - where to start? Well I spent the past 2 days running around with my 3 year old daughter Lauren. She had urlLink Nursemaids elbow and it was not fun! My poor little baby! She was hurting so bad. Monday night we were over at Grandmother's house (where we are every single day now, but that's another story...) and Patience (She's Grandmother's caregiver) was playing with Lauren and swinging her by the hands, we all do that with kids, right? Well, we shouldn't ever do that, especially with Lauren. So she gets her Nursemaids elbow and she is just miserable. We try to put it back into place, but with no luck. We take her home, give her plenty of Tylenol and Motrin and put her to bed. She slept so-so, kept waking up every time she rolled near that arm. So Tuesday morning then, I take her to the Pediatrician (The same pediatrician who told me that if I was a good mom I would take her out of daycare and stay home with her - yeah nice...I just haven't found a new pediatrician yet.) So they check out her arm and they are concerned it might be broke so they send me to the Medical Mall to go get X-rayed. So we do that, then go back to the Pediatrician and they review the pictures - nothing is wrong. They try again to put her arm back in place - still no luck. So we leave, they make an appointment for me to go see an Orthopedic Dr. because they are very concerned that she keeps getting this (she used to get it when she was very little, but hasn't had it in almost a year and a half). So I head into work to pick up my computer and some paperwork so I can work from home a bit - by the time we get into work, she's using her arm again and says it doesn't hurt anymore. I guess they got it back into place again that last time. CRAZY... So yesterday I leave work, pick her up and drive to the Orthopedic Dr. where I wait for 2 hours to get in and talk to him for about 3 minutes... Him: 'Why did the pediatrician send you here?' Me: 'They were concerned it kept happening so often with her.' Him: 'No, that's what happens - there's no treatment for this, she'll just grow out of it.' Me: '*&^^$&(^#$$%@#' So I just wasted 2 hours and $25.00 - because my Pediatrician is a moron! Oh well, so I took Lauren to McDonald's for a sundae and then back to Daycare.... AUGH.

Anyway...Here's a site to send urlLink dead flowers to your ex's!

So over the Holiday's my friend Trish ended up battling with her bank and credit card companies - how lovely. I know how awful this is, almost the exact same thing happened to me last year. We were making monthly payments on a large bill, well apparently we were late one month - by 5 days - OH MY GOD! So as we are getting ready to finally start our Christmas shopping on December 20th (I know, but we are always late starting it...) we discover that the $1500.00 that we thought was in our bank account (from selling some stock that I had) was nowhere to be found. What possibly could have happened? We had absolutely no earthly idea...we didn't realize we were late on that payment. So after many calls we find out that the lawyers we were making payments to had seized all of our bank accounts and cleaned out everyone of them. They didn't even have to notify us of this happening, they sued us and didn't even tell us! Anyway, it all ended up fine and dandy - after many calls and what not, threats of more sueing blah, blah, blah...the lawyers finally sent us our money back. Of course, we didn't get it back until after Christmas - nice. So what can you do when stuff like this happens? Are you just stuck? Most importantly - How do you get revenge? Well here is urlLink one site that might be able to help with that. urlLink Another site to give you some ease...Anyway. I don't know the answer. All I know is that they can walk all over you without any trouble at all, they don't even have to tell you what they are doing. Very nice.

In the year of 2004 I hereby resolve.... ...to be a more positive and optimistic person. ( This one will be tough, but, I will try...) ...to keep my weight down. ...to flatten my stomach by going to the gym more often. Then, if I get my stomach flat I want to get it pierced. (I just think that is sooo sexy.) ...to finally finish my kitchen. (Painting the walls, redecorating, etc...) ...to start painting and drawing again. And to take some art classes. ...spend more time with my kids playing. ...spend more one on one time with my husband! ;) ...write letters to my family and friends far away. ...be more organized! Well, that seems to be a good start. Now the tricky part - actually doing it! We'll see. I'll keep you updated and let you know how I'm doing. OK

I hope to get back in the swing of things now! The Holiday's are over and we are back to our 'normal' life. How scary is that? VERY. Anyway, it was a very nice Christmas, full of fun and festivities. Well, OK, not so much festivities...but it wasn't a total bummer either. So...Here we are in a brand new year and so much to look forward to! Does anyone have any great resolutions they have made? I haven't really made any yet....I need to do that - RIGHT NOW. Let's see....here are some lists I found out on the web.... urlLink The American Jerk's Official New Years Resolutions. urlLink Osama's list...(not real funny, but there are a couple in there...), a urlLink New Year's Resolution list that I can relate to.

I'm not mad at my husband anymore, obviously. No I didn't get an apology...I just got over it. Believe it or not - I kinda over reacted....I know, shocking that I would possibly do that. I'm such a freak! Anyway, thngs are back to normal - which are good - very good. Just thought I'd keep you updated that my husband is not as big of an idiot as I felt that day! He really is a great husband - Thank God - as well as being my best friend!

Here's an interesting concept... urlLink The Giving Game. Do good deeds for people, only with the request that they pass it on and do good deeds for some other person. Pay it forward. The Giving Game was inspired by Catherine Ryan Hyde's novel, urlLink Pay It Forward. Anyway, I think this is a great idea. Check it out!

SO here I am - MAD! Sometimes, husbands can be complete idiots! Anyway, I will not get into the how's and why's...Let's just leave it at - HE IS AN IDIOT! I still love him, and I will get over this, but for today - AUGH. I don't even know if he gets it - that's what is frustrating. No, he knows, he knows he was wrong but he will not admit it and won't let it go. As for me, I just do not want to talk about it. I said my piece this morning and let it go. Sure, I'm not talking to him either right now - but what do I have to say to him? I mean really, what do you say to somebody that has ticked you off? I don't want to get into it with him - I'm not looking for an argument, I'm looking for an apology - something with meaning. Whatever - if that means anything to him. So anyway...who knows...I did make it to the gym today though. That made me feel somewhat better. A little, anyways.... HAHA! Here's a good one: A wife was furious with her husband, saying, 'You're an idiot. You have always been an idiot. You'll always be an idiot. If they had an idiot contest, you'd come in second.' 'Why would I come in second?' the husband asked. She replied, 'Because you're an idiot!'

Well, How am I doing? Back in the beginning of January I posted my resolutions, let's check in to see how I am doing... My Resolutions In the year of 2004 I hereby resolve.... ...to be a more positive and optimistic person. ( This one will be tough, but, I will try...) This one is turning out to be tough - some of the people out there make this very difficult! I AM trying. ...to keep my weight down. Ah, so far so good...not losing anymore yet though... ...to flatten my stomach by going to the gym more often. Then, if I get my stomach flat I want to get it pierced. (I just think that is sooo sexy.) No real progress here yet, I have taken some Ab classes at the gym though, that's a start. ...to finally finish my kitchen. (Painting the walls, redecorating, etc...) Absolutely no progress here. Haven't really even started to think about it. ...to start painting and drawing again. And to take some art classes. Nope. ...spend more time with my kids playing. That's been good, doing some reading with Alex, playing dolls with Lauren. ...spend more one on one time with my husband! ;) Yes! ...write letters to my family and friends far away. I've made some phone calls to friends I haven't talked to in awhile...really need to write letters though...maybe I'll just send them a link to my blog and they can keep up with me that way! Hmmm.... ...be more organized! I'm really and truly trying - little by little... Hmm...any new resolutions? Well, one thing I've been trying to do is to read more books. I've joined Bookcrossing (check out the link on the side there) and I've already read several books.

So, got up this morning - got the kids ready and took them into daycare. Steve slept in a little bit because he had a dentist appt. this morning. (Normally we drive together everyday and take the kids in together) So anyway, I'm dropping them off - Alex leaves without so much as a goodbye and Lauren decides she will throw a fit! I hate that! I don't really feel guilty about the fits anymore - cause I know, as soon as I'm gone - they stop - it's only for my benefit that she does this! I mean literally throwing herself around as the teacher is carrying her away. LOVE IT. As soon as she is in the gym, where she can't see me anymore - it's silence. That quick. So it's just a hassle for me, don't you love it? Oh well - she is 3 and quite the Drama queen. She is such an actor, you wouldn't even believe it. For the most part though she is a very good kid, just like her brother, but she defintely is more high maintenance than her brother. I guess it's the difference in boys and girls...Anyway - got an exciting meeting to go to! Talk to you later! Meanwhile, check out this site urlLink Faces of the Fallen , this is a list of US Fatalities in Iraq. Very nice tribute.

So, is anyone following this phenomenom of urlLink American Idol ? It's such a rage - I hear everyone talking about, I just can't get into though. I do love the first several episodes where people go on there who think they can sing. I LOVE IT! Here's one that has a website now.... urlLink William Hung ...This is priceless. Anyway, like I said, I'm not following it, just love those that try!

WOW! How about this...Maurice Clarett can urlLink enter the NFL draft . Will this be agood thing or a bad thing? I've read several opinions on this and I think I have to agree, that this is a wrong decision. The NFL has very clear guidelines and on when they will accept a player and they are not discriminating. urlLink Whatever happened to good common sense ? Here's urlLink one guy that thinks it won't make a difference to the NFL. What do you think?

I am so damn emotional lately, I cry at the drop of a hat! It's really starting to bother me, it gets so that I can't function during the day. I mean some of the stuff is understandable - this morning when I heard they had urlLink found the body of that 11 year old Florida girl - I just bawled. UNDERSTANDABLE, that is such a tragedy. I can't stop thinking of her and her parents. But there are other things that make me cry - that I just don't get...I mean, I'm getting weird. I'll cry at commercials, songs, just plain weird things that I shouldn't be crying over. Why am I like that?
