  • An Interesting Week Pt 2

    A bit of info first: Part one was supposed to be longer but due to fatigue, I thought I’d just save it and work on it later. Surprise Surprise… Well this won’t be as long but I hope a bit more concise.

    Well, I have to say that our daily paper has done a bang-up job on the story. The headline now is “After The Miracle” and a lot of follow-up stories. One such headline that I’m going to take the time to read fully is that there are at least 100 more missing people on the list in Cleveland ALONE. Here’s a one of a few questions I’m going to throw out there: How many missing people, young and old, are reported missing in your fair cities?

    Yeah, you kinda knew Hollywood was going to sniff around this unfolding story. And ya know, the girls should have their story told and get paid for it. Because after all those years of abuse, getting a steady income and just dealing with it… Not sure I’d want to see it as a movie. Book form, yeah. All sorts of events/fund raisers are being put into place.

    You knew the said moron was going to plead not guilty. Dude, you’re already been tried in the court of public opinion and you lost. No mater the defense you’re going to put up (Whomever decides to represent this sick person is only doing it to get their name/firm some publicity), you AIN’T going to win. I’m all for the death penalty but he can only die once. And unless he’s in protective custody, he won’t last too long before getting shanked. What Say you Xanga, what should this sick person get?

    Here’s another question: How well do you know your neighbors? In this society we live in being busy and wrapped up in our own lives, you can go to extremes here. I don’t an answer here. Where did we go wrong or has people like this been around and only due to technology are they coming to life or hiding better?

    One of my wishes is let the Police investigate and fully do their job. Because if this sick person (Oh, I so want to swear but due to the ladies here, I’m not going to write what I want to call this guy) walks free, well he’ll go into hiding and the civil lawsuits that will follow… No information when the trial will start. He’s on suicide watch. Another wish is for a TOTAL media black-out. The bits and pieces are going to taint the jury pool (I’ve served on a jury and have read more than a few John Grisham novels laughing ) so it’ll be another way for this to be in the courts for years to come. Ah, my tax dollars at work.

    On to other things…

    The Cleveland Indians are doing well. Attendance for the home games suck but I have a warm and fuzzy feeling for this team this year. I’ve been listening when I can to the games on the radio.

    Our owner of The Cleveland Browns… Not so much. His own company Pilot J, is under investigation and there is concerns in the NFL that he may not being able to meet pay roll if the legal bill pile up.

    The Cleveland Cavaliers are… Yeah I’m not sure what direction they’re going in. They re-hired a coach they fired three years ago.

    Wacky weather all around. I can say the battery powered lawn mower really powers through tall grass. Money well spent.

    The Robins nest is down to one egg. It’s not looking good right now.

    Well, work has hired it’s first female driver. We, on nights, are training her. She seems strong enough. Strength is part of the job. Dealing with the weather and customers… Well, we will see. The swearing has toned down enough. I’m not around her. I can’t give an opinion. I have my own job to deal with. And she’s going to be a day person. That may sound nasty but if you’ve worked at a place that has two or more shifts, the shift that has the main boss near by are the chosen ones. Everyone else… Too Flipping Bad. I only care about how things run on night shift, everyone else can go hang.

    Speaking of work…

    The next two weeks are going to be interesting. Holiday weekend aside, I have chores that need to be done, cleaning out the basement, a graduation party to go to… Thursday is MINE MINE MINE. laughing God help me is the new Star Trek movie sucks. Well, I have a week left of vacation left. I see a month of three day work weeks if a Summer Vacation fall through. After working a afternoon next weekend, I may check out the casino downtown. Walk through it, take a few photos, and not drop one dime. Amazon has a good chunk of it and Fathers Days gift also.

    This week is when everyone finds out if their TV show (s) are cancelled. And the pilots are there. Another Joss Wehdon show is on the Fall Schedule. Yeah, we’ll see if a Marvell Comic TV show will last more than two weeks/months. ABC has it at least. If FOX got their hands on it, forget about it. Jack Baurer is back next summer. Mr.Sutherland show Touch didn’t make it to season three. Body Of Proof didn’t make it either. Dana Delaney is still smoking hot lady. Ah well. The rest of the networks haven’t put out their schedules yet. Burn Notice will be on it’s last season. Meh, I’ve gotten over it. I may pick it up on DVD but I’m at least two seasons behind. I may check out the mini series of Stephen Kings Under The Dome this summer.

    Okay, it’s after three in the morning and I’d like to get at least six hours of sleep.

    Wow, a decent sized post in like forever. After reading most of every ones post, I’ve felt like a piker here. There will be a review on the new Star Trek movie Friday. Be warned.

    Have a great rest of the week.

    CIAO!!!

  • but 24 is coming back. not that i watched that. or this season of touch either. or anything. but i’m babbling.

  • I look forward to your Star Trek review.

  • I don’t think I’d better comment any further on the sleezebag.  I kind of went off the last time I did, and I am sorry. I am not normally like that, but the thought that this *#!=^&*$+*!!!#  took CHILDREN and RAPED them (yes, there is living, breathing proof in that 6 year old, so why is he even bothering to plead Not Guilty??)and abused them horribly for 10 years…well, it’s more than I can handle…as a human, as a woman, as a mother.  And I’ve tried to think of what would be despicable enough as a punishment for him, but the more I think about it, the ickier it makes me feel.  All I know is that the death penalty is too good for him.  I do pity the public defenders on this case.  Those that had to represent Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols (OKC Bombing) had to deal with a lot…even death threats.  No thank you.  I know everyone has the right to due process (in my mind), but I just wish his defenders would grab a couple of rolls of quarters and go play pinball instead of trying to help him.

    Okay…As for sports?  Kind of disappointed my Thunder didn’t make it farther in the Finals.  Losing Westbrook at the very beginning of the playoffs was killer.  The guys have heart, though, and they played hard.  Fisher, Collison, Jackson, K-Mart…all really played lights out (Durant is Durant…he is so great to watch).  Ibaka was in a slump for awhile, but started playing well too.  Their losses were all just by a few points.  Good games to watch.  I am just happy we had no further injuries. 

    Looking forward to a review of the Star Trek Movie!
