Tonight I'm blathering on about nonsense stuff after posting up various jokes and something on Calamity Jane. No particular reason for posting something on Calamity really. Just that as a kid my parents called me Calamity Jane because I was so clumsy. I was the type of clumsy that made dishes jump off of shelves before I got to them because they knew they were doomed anyway! Ahh well, no one that I knew could run along a chain link fence like I could. Lol, I could do alot of balancing feats that certainly suprised many. Even myself. Especially since I couldn't seem to walk three feet without falling or tripping over something. Anyway, Calamity Jane's in here in case you find yourself in here and reading through my journal. News on tv is still dpressing and I don't foresee it getting any better. Sometimes I want to throw the darn tv in the yard and set it on fire. I seriously believe that the only reason I have one is so I can keep up with the wheather (it's certainly not for the trash Hollywood puts out for "entertainment" wink . Springs coming up in my hemisphere of the world and that means being bombarded by storms that leave much needed rain but, sometimes it also drops those pesky tornados that do mass amounts of damage. I'm terrified of storms. Rain and low rumbles of thunder don't bother me. Lightening, peeling thunder and damaging winds is what sends me running for cover. But I digress from the whole news being depressing thing. Yeah, I'm scatterbrained. When you get to be my age, it's allowed. Anyway, I saw on the news today where some eco terrorists burned down a few million plus dollar homes in Oregon or Washington state. Can't remember which state but, I do remember thinking while watching the senseless destruction, when is it going to my turn? When is whatever angry organization out there going to take aim at me for whatever they believe is a threat to them even though I live my life passively and peacefully? I also saw a brief clip on yet another missing girl. I say girl because I think and always will think that 18 is still a young girl, or boy. Far too much freedom is granted to this age before they even know what the world is like. The violence against the ages of 18-25 group shows that there is something horribly wrong with what we view as an adult this day. Very few 18 year olds are mature enough to make good judgements, especially when it comes to judging others. Anyway, this young girl is missing and I hope they find her alive and well. But, in the meantime everything on the news is about the election. I'd cry if I knew it'd do any good. If I knew I could survive the tears and pain that I feel once I let it all go. I wish the worlds people could stop and hold it's breath for one minute and connect in a human way. A compassionate way. Told you I was blathering. mrgreen
