Bagel Day

Every Friday I meet up with friends at the local bagel shop. I have missed a month's worth of bagels due to that gawdawful flu. Do you think it would be gluttonous to order 4 bagels? After all I did miss out on them while I was ailing.

I might think of something special to say later but for now a couple of items I read in the paper this morning.

HIV people must still use condoms even if they are having sex with another HIV person. There's a new strain of HIV that does not respond to any current drugs. Even if you have the regular (which is bad enough) strain, you can also acquire this more horrid strain too. Condoms all the time with all the people...

Credit cards will be rejecting cigarette sales from internet sites. They sure hate smokers and do everything they can to tax us ridiculously high and then make sure we don't have a place outside of our own home where we can smoke. Now they are making sure we go broke too. The worst part is there are brands of cigarettes only sold in the reservations - now people will have to drive to the location to get their stock. Why don't they just make it illegal and finish the job they started? Then at least the mob could get involved and there'd be black market cigs we could buy on lonely dark streets.

Update on Sony Jukebox: I still hate it and can't get it to shuffle pre-selected disks. I can shuffle all 400 which gives you a play list that is quite disturbing. I loved it last night when husband was listening to a wonderful Irish song by the three Irish tenors, then shuffle and poof! we're listening to Number Nine by the Beatles - this song goes on forever and is more like noise than music. I watched him go slowly mad while the outrageous and extended song went on and on and on. Finally it was over and we got Patsy Cline singing Crazy...yup that's what Number Nine had brought us to.

Update on internet lies re gays: You'll see this on hate boards. Gay marriages last approximately 1-2 years according to Dutch study. Some truth to this...the group they studied -- the group that gave out these statistics --was a group of sexually promiscuous gay men who already had acquired HIV. That would be the same as doing a study on prostitutes and finding that they had at least 10 partners a week, then saying American women have ten different sexual partners a week, says study on women's sexuality.

After much swearing and fuming I was able to get a form of a blogroll on this site. I can't believe how stupid I am that I cannnot cut and past a bit of code without all hell breaking loose on my blog. It's a simple blog - not a lot of flash and dash here, and I just wanted to recommend some other bloggers who I read daily. Hope it will work...I'm afraid to click on a link..last time I did the page went blank and I thought I'd lost all my entries.

Yahoo games: stay away from Jewel Quest. It is an inane, foolish, time-wasting way addictive game. I am spending too much time on my quest for jewels...I can't figure out why I love it so much? I already have enough addictions, and time-wasting activities in my life, why acquire a new one?

Okay...off to bagels. Have a wonderful weekend friends.

Doc, Just what we need is congress to get involved with prolonging the misery of a life not worth living. What loving parents could watch their child vegetate for 15 years just so they could play pretend?

Welcome Samantha!...yes I know who enshrinemarriage.ca is but I can't figure out why he's hiding under anonymous. He posted here before using his big boy comic book name.

At least he's terse and saving us from his hebephrenic HAHAHAHA's he uses all the time so I guess I should feel lucky.
