Oops.......

Once upon a time..........sorry, that's another story.

Once in a while I view other blogs here. I click on "next blog" and there I go, into other peoples lives, and views. I marvel at some of the artistic endeavors. Every one is different, however, there is a common entry in many, "sorry I haven't added anything recently." In forums and help sites many people ask about getting relevant and timely information. In other words, how do I find things to write about? That's the easy part, at least to me.

I realize many if not all of you read or at least skim your home pages. I doubt anyone ever has an "exclusive" so much of my info is probably known. What makes news different is the way we interpret and digest it. Sort of like, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." I had a 9:10 Doc. appointment this morning so I'm a little behind my schedule. Prior to leaving I opened up the computer and the first thing I saw was a great story.

Restaurant ban's kids under six years old. This is a family owned place outside Pittsburgh, Pa. that seats 68. The owner made this decision based on— a growing number of babies that can’t be expected to be quiet, slightly older children with “increasingly poor manners” and parents who are uncooperative when it comes to controlling their children—and that it actually stemmed from customer complaints. He said approximately 400 responses to an e mail sent out have been positive. In other words, LOTS OF ADULTS DON'T ENJOY BEING AROUND KIDS, especially when out for dinner.

And, of course the mother of a 13 month old called the local television station to complain about the "ignorant policy." She claims to have been a regular customer but of course, will be no longer...........good.

If the man that owns a business wants to regulate his customers, isn't that OK?

"No Shirts" "No Shoes" "No Service"? Do you think it's about time a nudist lodged a complaint that they were not served and wanted a burger?

More interesting news of the day:

"A Southern California woman remained jailed Wednesday after authorities said she drugged her estranged husband, tied him to a bed, cut off his penis and put it through a garbage disposal. The couple was married in December 2009 and that the victim filed for divorce six months ago."

Maybe a little over kill with the garbage disposal? I would think just the cutting thing would probably get the guys attention. These people had been married slightly over a year when the divorce was filed. He must have really pissed her off. A year doesn't seem long enough to get a partner that mad. And, what's with the meal service? The article claims she made, and drugged, his dinner. This fellow would have been much better off living in a motel.

"In 1993, Lorena Bobbitt cut off her husband's penis in Virginia and threw it out of her car window into a field on the side of the road. She claimed years of sexual abuse drove her to the attack, and she was acquitted by reason of insanity. His penis was later reattached."

Of course the woman that started it all, Lorena. Come on, it's been almost 20 years already. Just how long does it take to live down the penis cutting thing? I will say this, rather it gets thrown out a car window, at least from a guy perspective. One more thing, "his penis was later attached?" Like, how much later? Did someone walking down the side of the road find it? That would be an interesting phone call:

Emergency 911, what's your emergency?
Well, not sure if this is a real emergency but, did anyone report a lost penis?
Excuse me, did you say a lost penis?
Yeah, I was walking my dog near this open field and he started sniffing on this thing, it's a penis.
And you say you have it?
Yes, I have it on one of those ice bag things in my cooler
Sir, have you tried lost and found?


A conversation here at home after dinner last night.

She: "It's Larry Olivier Night"
He: "Oh, Larry Olivier died, when?"
She: "Tonight"
He: "How old was he?"
She: "Who?"
He: "Olivier?"
She: "What are you talking about?"
He: "Didn't you say Laurence Olivier died?"
She: "No, I said it was Larry Olivier night on TBS"
He: "So, when did he die?"

By the way, Olivier passed away at age 82 in 1989.
