My speech as the first Woman President

Wouldn't it be something?! Boys be very afraid. Single Men, also be very afraid. Just kidding!

But here's a little lovely that Ed emailed. I'm sure it's around the net.

WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR GEORGE W. BUSH OR JOHN KERRY GIVE THE FOLLOWING SPEECH?

My Fellow Americans:
As you all know, the defeat of Iraq regime has been completed. Since
Congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our mission in Iraq is complete.

This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American
forces from Iraq. This action will be complete within 30 days. It is now to begin the reckoning.

Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries
which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list is
short. The United Kingdom, Spain, Bulgaria, Australia, and Poland are
some of the countries listed there.

The other list contains everyone not on the first list. Most of the
world's nations are on that list. My press secretary will be
distributing copies of both lists later this evening. Let me start by
saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely. The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war.

The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world
Hell-holes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.

Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France. In
the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money
toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home. On
that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth. Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France, or maybe China.

To Israel and the Palestinian Authority. Yo, boys. Work out a peace
deal now. Just note that Camp David is closed. Maybe all of you can go
to Russia for negotiations. They have some great palaces there. Big
tables, too.

I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with
France, Germany, and Russia. Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bon vivant, mess amis.

I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid
parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers, and limos be turned over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New York.

A special note to our neighbors. Canada is on List 2. Since we are
likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to
try not pissing us off for a change. Mexico is also on List 2.
President Fox and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple extra tank and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put em? Yep, border security. So start doing something with your oil. Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty --- starting now. We are tired of the one-way highway.

It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them be saying, "darn tootin." Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America. It is time to eliminate homelessness in America. It is time to eliminate World Cup Soccer from America. To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thanks guys. We owe you and we won't forget. To the nations on List 2, a final thought. Drop dead. God bless America. Thank you and good night.

If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you are reading it in
English, thank a soldier.


On a personal note on the Election: Don't you find it a bit odd that stars are doing commercials for the candidate they support? I especially found it moving when the commercial for Planned Parenthood ENDORSED John Kerry. I'm not a big fan of Mr. Switch but I believe and support that organization. I believe Jennifer Aniston's commercial address influenced me more. I’m still wanting to vote for “NONE OF THE ABOVE” but if I have to make a decision then I hope to make an informed one. Please do the same.

Hunchback of Notre Dame - Act II

Few things before I continue the great story.
Don't forget to change your clocks back ONE hour before heading out to party or bed.

The Milwaukee Ballet is holding a Nutcracker Raffle.
Here's the story of the prize. :)
Once upon a time (December 18th at 1:30pm), a young princess or prince and their royal family of four, were whisked through the snowy streets of the Kingdom of Downtown Milwaukee. They were drawn in a carriage by Arabian steeds to the land of Marcus Center for the Performing Arts and were received by their subjects, The Milwaukee Ballet. They were greeted with a gift basket full of autographed mementos. The noble family was escorted through a backstage tour prior to the magical production of, "The Nutcracker" ballet. Later, when seated in their Orchestra Seats, the lights dimmed, and the family was immersed into a winter wonderland of holiday trees, candy, Snow, Flowers and Sugarplums. From a backstage throne, (during the second act), the princess or prince ran onstage and made a flower presentation to the Sugarplum Fairy. The photograph of the cast surrounding them on stage proved that it wasn't a dream, but a memory that will last forever....

* thinking about going to that. Sounds like fun. *

Now on with the show highlights.
Fleur de Lys waits for a visit from her fiancé, Captain Phoebus (aka slim ball). She and her friends work on a tapestry and Fleur dances. The Captain's arrival sends the girls into a fever of excited dressing and a formal dance, followed by a duet for the betrothed pair. The sounds from the street are heard by all. Esmeralda is invited to entertain Fleur and her friends. Her grace and beauty invoke hostility of the aristocratic girls. They then ensue to humiliate and dismiss the girl.
In a seedy part of Paris, Captain Phoebus arrives and is well known here. Shocker I know! He sends creepy kinda cute Gringoire to find beautiful Esmeralda. However an unknown freak follows her. *There will be commentaries thru the rest of this. I have to invoke my opinion in here somewhere. hehe continue please. * Phoebus begins his seduction of Esmeralda but as things get heated the unknown figure appears. It’s Frollo! He stabs Phoebus then escapes into the shadows of the night. Guards arrested Esmeralda for the murder.
A distraught Esmeralda is terrified, as she lies alone in the darkness of a prison cell. She is led to the steps of Notre Dame for her final penance. Quasimodo swings down from the battlements of the Cathedral and carries her off to sanctuary.

** intermission #2 **

Have a safe and fun Halloween all. Until next time.

Hunchback of Notre Dame

The only thing that makes life possible is permanent, intolerable uncertainty - not knowing what comes next. -Isn’t that great!

I can honestly say I did not come up w/ that one. Sci-Fi email gave it to me.

Hit the ballet tonight after doing a half-day of work. I went in the afternoon thinking, mistakenly, that I wouldn't have to talk so much. Doing ok until the last hour or so. Some folks have a lot of questions on their mind or it could be to hear the Kathleen Turner type voice I have going on. Not sure which one it is but a sore throat is not a fun thing to have. Like sandpaper rubbing on your inner thighs.

News flash: Brad Sherwood & Colin Mochrie stars of: Whose Line is it Anyway?! Are coming to the Pabst Theatre Jan 30th. Oh that should be damn funny.

Anyway, ballet per usual, was awesome! There were three acts. First one wasn't too bad. Many folks, including myself, did not read what was in the program book for the story that was to unfold in front of us. So during the first intermission I read it over.

We are introduced to Gringoire the poet whom is not pleasing the crowd at the Feast of Fools. Quasimodo wins the most ugly face contest and crowned as the Pope of Fools. Lovely gypsy Esmeralda dances around the flickering light of a giant bonfire. mmmmmm bonfire. Oops got carried away there, sorry. Anyway, Archdeacon Frollo condemns the gypsy girl and Quasimodo is dismissed in front of all.

Esmeralda is following thru the streets by creepy Gringoire as she makes her way home. Next day, Frollo tries to incite Quasimodo to abduct Esmeralda but handsome (not in this case) Phoebus, Captain of the Guard, rescues her. Phoebus captivates Esmeralda. They do a duet of cat and mouse until they come together in agreement of their mutual attraction.

Gringoire (more handsome than Phoebus this night) stumbles onto the Court of Miracles, home to the fun party crowd, and is about to be hung when Esmeralda saves his life by agreeing to marry him. He realizes it's to be a marriage in name only. Sucks to be him! Of course, this hurts him since he finds her so beautiful.

Next morning, Quasimodo pays for attack on Esmeralda in the town square. Whipped several times by a wet several strand cat o'nine tails whip. Esmeralda brings him water to ease his suffering once the whipping was complete. ** Intermission **

Until tomorrow my audience.

Moon disappears tonight

Just a lunar eclipse tonight. Nothing really special or anything. HA! There won't be another until March of 07! Other pics and info here



Can you image a place where there is no moonlight? Would all the romantics shrivel up and die? Moonlit walks would not exist, would they? Dinner by moonlight would not exist either. How sad. Oh well, time to pull out all the poetry about moons.

Up coming things

More clickie stuff again today. Yeah I'm home sick and checking mail. But this is fun, educational stuff this time. :D

Here's a Keanu movie. It looks pretty cool. I know someone that is doing security for Keanu while he's doing makeup shots for the movie at this time. Rachel Weisz is in it too. She pretty and talented. Now I just have to wait until Feb of 05. :(

Guy movie! You just have to wait until December 10th.

One of my favorite musicals is coming to the Theatre! Now I just have to keep an eye out to see where it will be playing around X-mas time.

Turn the sound up on this one. This should bring out the kid in all of us! Bummer that I have to wait for about two weeks before it opens. Don't forget to build a snowman! It even has a place where you can download X-mas ornaments to color and hang on your tree. Kool for kids.

Here's the Question you've all been missing: If you were to change the color of your hair, if you have some, and you could make it anything you want. What would it be?

Room-mate Wanted

I'm kinda looking for a Room-mate of sorts. This isn't a call out for a fuck buddy or anything like that. I really would like to have a room-mate but not move in with me. Current apartment only has one bedroom. If they already have pets, no problem. My kids are usually ok with others, once my boy figures out he's the Alpha male in the house and will get all of the mommy attention. If you know of anyone or just want to know more info, give a ring up on the cell phone or post some comment.

Budget movie? Wanna see: I, Robot, Shrek 2, Exorcist: The Beginning, Spider-Man 2, and The Manchurian Candidate. Not all in one night! Looking at the near 7 o'clock hour viewing time frame. Don't want to do too late on a school night. Anyone game?

Clicky Clicky Clicky, enjoy!

Here are some clicky clicky items. All are safe for work viewing. :)

For those Chocolate lovers that read this site.

For the Vegas lovers. See if you can win that gamble.

Want to have your own island ? Well then buy or rent one now!

Fly cheaper next time and on a charter flight? Try this little ditty .

Not sure what will get you into another Country? Documents here will get you in without having to flirt with the visa officer.

Cruise anyone?!

Here's a bit of a funny/flash back for ya.

Help a Charity out

The Milwaukee County Zoo is sponsoring an event that has Australian wines. It also benefits the Feline building. I'm all about cats so this seems very appropriate!

Since I've let a posting go by without a question, this one will not. :)
Question: How do you kindly tell someone that you think they're an idiot?

Now get back to your porn surfing!

Sorry 'bout that

Had no idea it was set so only registered users could log comments. Changed it now. Thanks for the call Geo.

Hey only a few days left to figure out what candidate to select for President and congressperson. Please research each one to make an informative VOTE.

Check out this new Nick Cage movie! Commercial seemed interesting enough for me to check it out. :D

Last trip details are: Trip to Las Vegas! Whom: Johnny Mack and Waiken. Check out their sites for the great pics. John is great for posting all my pics. Thxs!! :)

Another fun notes: The Milwaukee Ballet is having The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Check the site then check it out start the 28th. I'm there opening night! Kan't wait! hehe Also check out the Artists on the site as well.
Might be checking out this exhibit at the Art Museum . I love pics so it figures that I would go check this out. This is what is happening at the museum tomorrow night. Can you image an International Film Festival here in Milwaukee?! I'll probably hit the museum next month for this Film and Ornaments .

OK I'm beat tired, long day and tired of dealing with a bunch of idiots at work. They have been there for over three years and still can't do the job that they have had for that time. Then they have the nerve to assign me the ticket. Yeah that makes me SOOO happy. You bet I said something to them if not to their lead person. Fuck if I'm gonna do their work when I have a ton of shit to do myself. Alright I'm off that terrible subject.

Good news: My cute little niece is having some kind of school concert on Friday night from like 630 to I don't know when. Everyone is more than welcomed to come. Just give me a holler on the cell phone.

Nite all.

Re-opening of a crazy girls thoughts!

Celebrate your Breast Cancer Awareness by wearing PINK!!

It's Breast Cancer Awareness month, hence this site is Pink for the rest of the month. Do your best by showing off your Pink/support.

If you haven't seen me in awhile it's due to OT at work. There is just so much to do and not having a full-time person means more stuff for me. I have a part-time person working w/ me but this is his first time IT job. He has never worked w/ laptops in an imaging, re-imaging, repair, data recovery, and burning cds kinda place. Yes, yes.... I do all that and more!

The data recovery bit is pretty cool. Use knoppix which is pretty awesome. I suggest that all IT folks take a look at it. Best part, it's completely free!! One can back up the data to an USB external harddrive or the network. Like I said, it's pretty awesome. I thank the previous helper dude for that bit of great software intro.

I'd like to have him come back into the lab but he's very happy being on the JWI help desk. More power to him on that deal but then again that's his first time ever doing help desk. I think after 6 months he'll change his mind. hehe

In other good news, by the end of the month we will supposedly have a full-time position open in my lab. Need someone that does have hardware and software skills that match mine or exceed it. That means someone that has been doing imaging, re-imaging, hardware and software support, quick learner, some desktop support, and is willing to work with me. :D Yeah it will be fun but ton of work. Actually whomever it is will probably ease the tension from my shoulders having to do so much on my own.
I have to do all the repairs - testing the "broken" piece and calling/setting up the repair with IBM via phone or online, data recoveries, ordering of parts, creating purchase orders for repairs and tracking them, and then there is the actually replacements of broken hardware on a laptop - warranty and non-warranty. Oh did I mention I also do all the paperwork for all of the machines that come in and go out? Yeah there's more too. I keep track of all that in our call tracking system, asset database and repairs in a spreadsheet. Do the shipping of all the laptops to all the offices w/in the states and Int'l.

On a more fun note, I work at Planet quite a bit this month and a few days next month. I so like working there, not only for the cash payouts but for the free stuff too. hehe You all are more then welcomed to come out and boogie.

Personal note: Happy 5yr anniversary to me. It was Oct 15th that I signed a one year lease to an apartment that I was to have before my divorce was final and before the Ex knew what hit him. Hold the middle of April open for a really crazy party. Not sure where or the date yet but I just might have to leave the state afterwards. :D

Without being to wordy, is that really possible for me? I'll end with a question since I pretty much question everything, depending on who you talk to. hehe

The BIG Question o'rama: What's the best way to tell someone you would like to get your groove on with them?
