HNT III

Shut up. I was just.....yawning.

I was watching the Sox game last night (rooting for the RED SOX, of course) and at the very disappointing end a camera zoomed in to an excited white sux fan proudly holding & shaking a banner. A big banner. A banner that they took some time putting together but obviously not a lot of thought. It wasn't just a sharpie marker scribbled last minute on a piece of cardboard. It was big bold straight black block lettering on a long white sheet. It read " I'TS OUR TURN... " I don't recall the rest b/c I couldn't get past the first word. That about sums up the white sox and their fans for me. That and the whole "they gone" thing. I hope they gone up and lose this bitch.

That's pretty funny.

Or should I write T'hats pretty funn'?

NO, I am not a White Sox fan. I root for the Red Sox.

Love your wedding pictures.

Also, I'm trying to remember, with that last image, if I ever looked like that?

Too many years have passed, the memory is, gratefully, hazy. I will, therefore, assume I once did.

Thank God my husband's eyes are hazy too.

The train wrecks are terrible. You make a point, why so many in a row?

I bet funds have been cut for maintenance or inspections. I wonder if salaries have been cut and they're not able to get more qualified people? Or maybe there aren't enough. Overworked people make mistakes.

That seems to be a trend in everything these days. Not enough money for roads, fire departments, police departments - everything that requires government funds, even inspections - is suffering.

So often local governments depend upon federal funds, and funds to cities and counties have been cut.

Case in point, the levees that weren't repaired, much less upgraded.

That was the main problem with FEMA, lots of positions unfilled, lots of cuts that really debilitated what was once a really first class responder.

Okay, enough. I've gotten off track. These aren't the comments I planned to leave. Your blog is fun. I just wanted to let you know you had another reader and that I enjoyed visiting.
