A little about ME!

If you visit regularly, your haven't seen too much going on. I started this blog so that my friends and family that I don't see too often can catch up on my terribly exciting life.

I work as an IT Purchasing Administrator for a little 'ol bank in Portland, Oregon. So, I get to spend money all day long buying PC's, laptop's, printers, monitors, etc., etc., etc. You would think "Heck, she gets to shop all day, she should be the happiest girl around!" Well, you would be forgeting that I'm shopping for computers and computer accessories, not SHOES or CLOTHES or JEWLERY. It does get quite boring now and then.

I work full time, so, whatever little time I have not working, or cleaning, or driving, or cooking I try to squeeze in a little posting or picture or video. Enjoy!

Our New Project

Well, we bought this car back in 1999 or 2000 and it has been sitting in our garage since. We did take it out a couple of times to get it re-painted and the engine worked over, but, the poor baby has been locked up in the garage for a good part of the last 7 years.



This is a 1965 VW Beetle we bought after selling my 1973 VW Super Beetle. My hubby had a VW Beetle long, long ago, so technically this is his third VW to completely re-do.



We have just recently started getting in all of the parts needed to finish this baby up. I will keep you posted on the progress. We just put together the rear-bottom seat section with padding and new upholstery.



The upholstery and quarter panels are brick-red with cream trim. The carpet is a nice oatmeal color, not a solid color, kinda dotted. I can't wait for this to be done so I can spin it around town!


Our New Baby!

No, it's not another kid. We took care of that long ago! It's our new boat! It's a 20' Ski Boat made by Blue Water boats, called the Cascade. Ours is red, of course, it is my favorite color... :) Isn't she beautiful?!?

The Left is NUTS!


Ted Nugent was on Hannity & Colmes on July 12th to talk about a recent threat from a Lefty Blogger at the Democratic Daily, who by the way used to write for Hustler Magazine...classy.

TED NUGENT, MUSICIAN: Well, Alan, I've been dealing with these new jobs all my life, since the 1960s. The animal rights and the anti- hunters have been threatening to kill my family and kill me.

COLMES: We don't want him to kill you here, Ted.

NUGENT: They've threatened to kill me. We got the files with law enforcement. This guy is obviously a nut case. But he is actually making a statement to assassinate fellow Americans.

COLMES: No, he's not, Ted.

NUGENT: If you really want to fight — if you really want to fight hate, Alan, you'll find these lunatic fringers are all about hate. And all I can say to him is good luck.

COLMES: Actually, Ted, he's not threatening to assassinate you. He's talking about the hate on the right.

NUGENT: So let me get — Alan, what you're talking about...

COLMES: You're ignoring how he set it up, and you're ignoring the hyperbole.

NUGENT: ... make the statement. He used the word assassinate, didn't he?

COLMES: Well, you're taking it totally out of context. He — you can't believe he plans to assassinate you. He said...

NUGENT: Alan, you are such a pushover.



Okay, so let me get this straight, Colmsey is saying that it is okay for this "blogger" to threaten to kill Rush and Nugent because he is talking about the hate from the right hmmmmmm.......does anyone else see the hypocracy here??

CLOSE THE BORDERS NOW - DEPORT THE CRIMINAL ILLEGAL'S


Pray for Zina Linnick's family. Write or call or email your local government and put pressure to CLOSE the borders and tell them to stop lobbying for OPEN borders before this happens to another beautiful baby.


I am sick and tired of hearing about kidnappings, rapes, murders, drunk driving that these CRIMINALS are getting away with. This beautiful young girl had her whole life ahead of her before this murdering sicko got his hands on her. This isn't the first time this has happened. Why wasn't he deported back in 1990 when he was convicted of incest?!?

Happy Birthday to ME!

Well, its official. I am now 30 years and 1 day old. I thought for sure I would have curled up in a ball and died once I woke up on the 5th, but alas, I didn't.

It isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. My son was convinced that I would climb out of bed that morning with a face full of wrinkles and a head full of gray hair.

Instead, I woke up with a massive headache from the alcohol and firework smoke and only 4 hours of sleep. I drug my butt into work and tried to at least spit out complete sentences. What a wonderful way to start my 30th year, looking & feeling like death.

I feel great today. Got enough sleep last night to make up for the lack of sleep I will get this weekend when all my family and friends flock to my house for support..I mean to poke fun at me for being "old" now. Well, at least I will always be younger than them! Take that!

Classy....

So, it looks as if A-Rod's wife is still upset at her gorgeous hubby for his tromping around Toronto with a Blonde-Stripping-Playboy Wannabe-Home Wrecking-Ho.

Do you blame her? Not a very adult thing to do with children present though.

And My Temper Tantrum Begins....NOW!

Free iPhones to all AT&T employees Not FAIR!! Waaaaahhhhhhhhh

"We are giving iPhones to employees at the end of July," Steve Dowling, a spokesman for the Cupertino, Calif.-based company, said in an interview Friday. He declined to provide further details. Apple has about 18,000 employees.



UPDATE:
Actually, it isn't AT&T who is giving them to their employees, it is Apple. I talked with my neighbor yesterday, who happens to work for AT&T, and he corrected me. He also said that AT&T will not let their employees own an iPhone, EVER. What??

Well, as you can probably see, I am a huge Fred Head. This picture is too good not to post. Run Fred Run!

Video of the Day

This is why I miss Steve Erwin.

Dear Abby

I got this e-mail from a friend of mine. It was too good not to share:

Dear Abby

My husband is a liar and a cheat. He has cheated on me from the
beginning, and, when I confront him, he denies everything. What's
worse, everyone knows that he cheats on me. It is so humiliating.

Also, since he lost his job six years ago, he hasn't even looked for
a new one. All he does all day is smoke cigars, cruise around and
bulls**t with his buddies while I have to work to pay the bills.

Since our daughter went away t o college he doesn't even pretend to
like me and hints that I may be a lesbian. What should I do?

Thanks, Clueless


Dear Clueless:

Grow up and dump him. Good grief, woman. You don't need him anymore.
You're a United States Senator from New York. Act like one.

I have been waiting for this day...

Okay, not really.

Following a calculated publicity buildup, the original Girl Power group of the 1990s announced Thursday that they have agreed to reunite for 11 concerts around the world in December and January.

The shows will be their first concerts since breaking up in 2001, and the first with all five of the original group since Geri "Ginger Spice" Halliwell quit to pursue a solo career in 1998.

"Imagine you got divorced and you've got back together with your ex-husband," Halliwell said, explaining how she felt about the reunion.


Then "Posh" continues to say:

"She just appreciates the fact we've let her back in," joked Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham


Joked, yeah....right.

What a TOOL!

I guess Nifong thinks he too good to show up to his OWN hearing.

An American Victory!

The Shamnesty is D.E.A.D. I'm shocked it had to take this long.

The video says it all.

Edwards, a.k.a. Silky Pony, on Ann Coulter's non-attack

John (Silky Pony) Edwards was on Hardball with Chris Matthews tonight defending himself & his wife against the big meanie Ann Coulter's non-attack.

If you aren't up to date on what has happened....here's the skinny:

Now, I'm no huge Ann Fan, but, she was unfairly attacked for something she said on Good Morning America.

Chris Cuomo: But to begin with the tough words, some tough words for you by the three top candidates in response to what you had said, some were calling it a homosexual slur, you said it was a taunt. They all came out when you were talking about John Edwards and said, 'This was wrong. We must deny it." Fair criticism of you or a shift towards the tolerant among the GOP?

Ann Coulter: No, no. There were, I was denounced all over. All over. I think the one that hurt the most was, was from I'mALittleGirlInAPinkPartyDress.com… Very upsetting…Though about the same time Bill Maher said - and by the way, I did not call John Edwards the F-word. I said I couldn't talk about him because you go into rehab for using that word.

[…]

But about the same time, you know, Bill Maher was not joking and saying he wished Dick Cheney had been killed in a terrorist attack. So I've learned my lesson. If I'm gonna say anything about John Edwards in the future, I'll just wish he had been killed in a terrorist assassination plot.

Obviously Ann wasn't really saying she wished Silky killed by terrorists, she was just trying to emphasize the point that an "Outspoken Liberal" can get away with wishing death on our VICE PRESIDENT but she as an "Outspoken Conservative" can't even get away with calling a "Liberal Candidate" a faggot.

So now, the Silky Campaign is using an edited version of this video to raise money for his Presidential bid, like he has a chance in hell to win...PUH-LEEZE!

Ann appeared on Hardball (WHY!?!) and Mrs. Silky got to call in and confront Ann about what she said. Why didn't Mr. Big Man John call in himself? Because Liberals would rather see the poor, poor Mother that has Cancer do it to raise funds.

Here is the edited video from the Edwards web site:


Here is the video of Mrs. Silky confronting Ann because Mr. Silky is a WIMP:
