Martha Martha Martha

I applaud her for trying to be natural and friendly, after all, it boosts business. But ohmygawd SHUT UP and let your guests finish a sentence, why doncha? She's so rude.

And it really makes me feel so good that she was able to fly to some exotic island and spend the weekend.... "and if you ever get a chance you simply must go there." Yesterday she had some highend furniture guy on her show. The chandelier he brought was only $36,000. Houses use to sell for that 20 yrs ago. And the name dropping. oh puleeese!

And she knows everything. A woman had brought some exotic birds on her show and was sharing info about them. She told Martha it was not a good idea to pet this one bird. What did Martha do? She continued petting the damn bird. I bet the bird lady was sweating bullets hoping the bird didn't peck Martha's eye out.

One good thing about it is that she's keeping a few folks employed. I'm talking about her personal employees on her "farm".

Whadda ya think... would Martha's story make a great inspiration movie? Caught in a lie because she got some insider information and she tried to dump her stock before the price dove. Spent time in jail and came back to probably double her net worth. How great is that. And where does she find to the time to do everything. Blog, write a book, so out promoting her businesses, entertaining, commuting... everything. She must be supply GOBs of people jobs.

I'm glad for Martha deep down. I guess its more a case of "I can't relate."

Hmmm.. I have 2 followers on this blog!

That surprised me a little. Followers of my rants. All I can say is.... "readers! I have readers!!" Just kidding. I just want to say this is where I let crap hang out so if you want to live a positive life, I'm not so sure you should follow this particular blog. But you're more than welcome to, if you want.

And I have a little rant or two today.... or maybe they qualify as comments. I'm not sure.

That CEO who apologized for redecorating his office for over a million bucks and said he should have paid for it himself. He is so far removed from the little guys he doesn't have a clue. Can you imagine how some unemployed homeless people might feel when hearing that. When hearing he should have taken his own 1.2 million dollars and paid for the redecoration... and they've been paying 21-25% interest on citibanks credit cards so that the CEO could get millionS as a bonus. Hearing crap like that when needing a bailout to stay in business so that he can redecorate again in a couple of years.

I caught just a few minutes of Charlie Rose interviewing former president Jimmy Carter. We had similar opinions. He also thinks Bush will go down as the worse president ever (at least in foreign affairs) and he is very glad Obama is president. (Carter is just too nice to be in politics.) He didn't think there should be any criminal actions taken against the Bush administration... but I'm not so sure. Who knows what deeds lay hidden in the back of the files.

Carter also didn't believe Reagan deserves the title of outstanding president, as some claim him to be.... that he didn't do anything outstanding as president. I agree. I couldn't figure out why people heralded (?ed) him to be so great. He started the economic downfall. This doesn't mean he didn't do okay for an actor, but outstanding? I don't see it.

And former governor Blogojevich.... What a classic example of how men use denial to try to get out of being caught red handed. Its classic. Just keep denying it no matter that the police caught you with stolen goods or drugs in your pocket. Just keep denying it when your wife walks in to see you naked in the bed with another woman. "Its not what you think!" BWAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HAHAHA. I wonder how his arrogance will fair when the criminal investigation becomes a trial. Of course, it all depends upon who's on the jury, will they take a bribe, or can he use his boyish charms to get out of this one. I mean who knows what will happen. OJ Simpson showed what can happen with a jury.

They say if you're innocent, request a trial by judge. If you're guilty go with a jury.

Madoff

The old saying is still true and functioning. The rich get off and the poor get justice. Madoff is still allowed to be free on bail.

The judge, who remained nameless (how convenient), said the prosecution did not prove Madoff was a flight risk. How about the fact that Madoff clearly ignored the court's order to not do anything with his assets. (he mailed jewelry to friends and relatives. he almost got checks mailed out to others so there would be nothing to give the investors.) Ignoring a court order? What do you think would happen to you, if you did that? What does that say about the court orders? If you're wealthy, don't pay it any mind. Just do whatever you want to.... its your right because you have millions of dollars.

Sure... let him have more time to move as much of his assets out of reach that he can. After all, the stupid investors apparently deserved to be taken for a ride. And what a ride it was. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

What the hell is wrong with this world??!!

art paintings

How is it when I use "painting art" or "art painting" on youtube I get up a bunch of XXXXXXXXXXX porn videos. How does one get from painting and art to freaking ass porn??? I get so sick of that sleazy slime. Oh... but lets make sure Joe can still get it up after watching 24 hr porn. Lets create medication to help him get it up. I'M SICK OF PORN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cram it in there!!

Just my preference... but I gotta say I'm getting so freaking tired of waiting two frigging minutes to load a page that has been crammed full of everything under the sun. Huge pictures, stupid and irritating "snow", stupid music that sucks up all available space. I'm not going to those sites any more. Go ahead. Cram your site full of every possible 'trick', after all, its your site. But soon no one will be visiting it. Its just to bloody CUTE!!!

Have You Noticed?

Bush's administration has not done anything for the little guy in this economic mess? He's only given money to the big corporations so they can continue to pay their execs. They've lowered interest rates to try to boost the economy but they have done nothing for the citizens. The people who happen to have homes that are still assessed to be worth more than the current mortgage can refinance to reduce their interest... but I've not heard of anything to help those whose home value has plummetted below their current mortgage. Nothing.

What they did do was to ignore those who predicted this would happen... those who tried to alert those who were suppose to pay attention. The government doesn't give a shit about the people. But they do seem to care a great deal about corporations.
...by the people, for the people. bwah ha ha ha ha ha What a frigging joke that is!!

Legal Crooks!

The feds, in particular the IRS, are the biggest bunch of crooks ever! I can see why someone might do something terribly drastic because of their antics. Maybe the whole system needs to collapse. Maybe we need to scratch everything and start all over. However, finding decent and HONEST people who are not greedy would be very difficult.

My IRS payment is late because I could not get to the mail box to send it on its way. I was hoping to do a pay-by-check over the phone but they don't do that. You have to go through some other company and pay them a fee. Spreading the wealth.

Well, my payment is already late so I guess its going to be a few more days cause I'm not paying more to make a payment. Try to do right and it costs you. Try to do wrong and it costs you. They need to appreciate the little guy who is giving them all the money to fight Bush's illegal wars, give out all those pork barrel projects, etc.

I'm fuming.

And if you're interested in why I have back taxes to pay, its because I used the wrong tax table. It was not because I was trying to get out of anything. I'm too poor to get out of anything. I need to be rich to catch a break. MFs!!!!
