Friday Night

I’m reading a book entitled Some Nerve by Jane Heller. She’s writes beach-read books that are fun to read. This one is about a celebrity writer for a People-type magazine who has to get the Big Get celebrity interview or else her tyrannical boss will fire her. So far, so good.

I’m listening to "The Nail File: The Best of Jimmy Nail" who I fell in love with on Meme’s blog. I loved his "Ain’t No Doubt" song so much I bought a CD. Man, does this guy ever write/sing songs with happy lyrics? I’m half way through the CD and nearly bawling. Haha. I love "Aint No Doubt" (duh) and like "Big River" too. If you listen to "Love Don’t Live Here Anymore"—bring a hankie. Right now he’s singing Andrew Lloyd Webber’s "On This Night of a Thousand Stars." After seeing one of his videos, I keep picturing his big, huge, enormous nose. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Anyway, anyone catch CSI Thursday night? PapaZao aka KFed aka Mr. Britney Spears guest starred as a maniac whose gang went around Vegas beating the shit out of people. What a stretch. One of the Beatees was Greg- the- Lab- Guy- who- advanced- to- a- CSI. Weird episode.

I’m going off to read. Tata To paraphrase Ryan Seacrest: “Emma out.”

Guess the Object

 

How's this Tree? Does it look too poopy?

It's colder than a witch's tit in a brass bra today. 34 degrees. BP is working on a project in the garage so I had to park the car outside. There was frost on the windshield. Grrrrr.

Last night we went to high school open house. Would someone mind sending a clue to my teenaged son about the importance of education in this society? Grrrr.

Didn't Make the Cut

I’m rereading the Constitution and came across this. The following is a partial list of actual proposed amendments that did not get ratified:

1876 An attempt to abolish the United States Senate

1876 The forbidding of religious leaders from occupying a governmental office or receiving federal funding (This one doesn’t sound so bad!)

1878 An Executive Council of Three to replace the Office of the President (doesn’t sound so bad, unless those three were Dubya, Cheney & Rumsfeld)

1893 Renaming this nation The United States of the Earth (catchy!)

1893 Abolishing the United States Army & Navy

1894 Acknowledging that the Constitution recognize God and Jesus Christ as the supreme authority in human affairs (with Moses and Mohammad coming in a distant third and fourth)

1912 Making marriage between the races illegal

1914 Finding divorce to be illegal

1916 All acts of war should be put to a national vote. Anyone voting yes had to register as a volunteer for service in the US Army (this one is hysterical)

1933 An attempt to limit personal wealth to $1 million

1936 An attempt to allow the American people to vote on whether or not the United States should go to war.

1947 The income tax maximum for an individual should be exceed 25%

1948 The right of citizens to segregate themselves from others

1971 American citizens should have the alienable right to an environment free of pollution (sounds good to me)
