Police were at my door at 6:00am

Well, as you know, I was visited once before by the police seeking answers as to the whereabouts of my neighbor....a 23 year old, we have since dubbed... The felon.

I know another young man who grew up in the area and he said that my neighbor spent much of his high school years (and there may have been more than 4) selling drugs. This I believe.

So, this morning... early... sometime after 4:00 am (which is when I was up and at my computer) the police rang my door bell. It was probably like 6:00, because I was just waking up my little princesses to start a new day.

I go to answer the door, but my front porch was dark when I moved the curtain aside to peer through... So I opened the door a fraction and said, "Hello"

They promptly identified themselves and I went to turn on the front porch light, but the bigger of the two burly badge toting dudes said, "No lights mame. We are trying to keep a low profile"

So, Logn and short of it is.... "Len the felon" is on the run. I told the police that I had seen him several times over the last few weeks, I said that the two cars in the driveway probably meant that he was home and so was his mom... and that I hadn't seen him driving in months... and that mostly his girlfriend did the driving.

The girlfriend statement got them all hyper... and atleast 2 of them whipped out their notebooks... but they were quickly crestfallen when I answered their questions and it was clear that I didnt' know her name, her license plate or anything... and that in fact, I was pretty useless as an informant ...

AND frankly... at that hour in the morning, not too attractive either.

So, they bid me adieu and I did too.

That got me to day dreaming about big burly cops and I remembered recieving an email with pictures of some really nice looking men who were supposedly cops in Bergen County NJ... sigh... yup.... pretty sad. I wonder if I can find that email... it might be worth posting the pictures! HA HA HA HA HA AH AH AHA

Hello My Minions.....

Ahhhhhhhh I'm back. I'm back with a chip on my shoulder the size.... well, the size of texas (or the floating island of garbage between california and hawaii which is reportedly twice the size of texax -don't believe me click here) --- which for us northerners.... would make it like the size of 16 New Jersey's! HA HA HA HA (The link to the article by the way is from the LATimes... and it's mostly about the birds that are dying from eating the plastic and the island of garbage is referred to as "Eastern Garbage Patch". So if you want to find your own references you can google that.)

OK... I'm on the soap box about the latest Obama email .... I gotta tell you... some pretty smart people are spreading the most ridiculous emails about this man. AGAIN, I say... I'm a registered republican (yes, I know B. blah blah blah .... ) but I gotta tell you... the latest email is just so ridiculous that I can't imagine anyone passing it around with out doing some research.

AND SO, without further adeiu.... Here it is... SANS the pictures... which was how it came to me:

"Subject: FW: FW: FW: GET THIS AROUND THE COUNTRY AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE

I cannot believe this man admits going to flag burning ceremonies and he is trying to become our president!!!!??? He is going to LAY ASIDE HIS HATRED if he is president and DISARM our country…OH COME ON!!!!

Read this and pass this along.

There is more than taxes at stake in the election!!!Wow, if you want to read something that will scare your socks off, read this in its entirety! Perhaps there are SOME out there who are beginning to get 'the picture'.

The following is a narrative taken from Sunday Morning's televised 'Meet The Press'. and the author is employed by none other than the Washington Post!! Yeah......the Washington Post of New York and Los Angeles Times fame!! Must say that I'm dually impressed.................. From Sunday's Televised 'Meet the Press' Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.

Obama Explains National Anthem Stance Sun, 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain why he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played. The General also stated to the Senator that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171... During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. At the very least, 'Stand and Face It' Senator Obama Live on Sunday states, 'As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides, Obama said. 'There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.'We should consider to reinvent our National Anthem as well as to redesign our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we as a Nation of warring people, should conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam, whereas peace prevails. Perhaps a state or period of mutual concord between our governments. When I become President, I will seek a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation have placed upon the nations of Islam an unfair injustice. My wife disrespects the Flag for many personal reasons. Together she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past, many years ago. She has her views and I have mine'.
Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put aside my hatred. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path of hope. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America .

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you heard it right. This could possibly be our next President. I, for one, am speechless."

Now. Plllleeeeeaaaaassssseeeeeeeee............... never mind that this email was already on snopes and there was video tape of him not saluting the flag, but there were other pictures when he did... also, none of the other candidates were facing the flag which was also stated as a rule.

OK... I'm better now... really I don't know how people can continue to pass this stuff on... AND I almost hesitate to put it on the web, but it's just soooooooooo over the top... but

Sooooooooo I have a couple of projects in the works. Nothing I can disclose... bwaaa haaaa haaaa All I can say is... if it doesn't work out, I know what I will be giving you all for the holidays! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA ... cough cough... oh I crack myself up! HA HA HA HA HA HA AH AH

So... let's see.... I have some things to enter in the top secret blog... but I am .... yawn.... tired. Perhaps I will enter them..... perhaps not. You will have to check.

For those of you that aren't aware.... I also have an industrious blog called...........

http://mombloggerworks.blogspot.com it's a mishmosh of work ideas and some blatant attempts to earn advertising money. (a girl has got to work doesn't she?) I'm thinking about putting a shingle out infront of my house.

Just a shingle. ha ha ha ha ha ha

Actually, i just can't decide what to put on the shingle. Like..... I think I'd like to be a consultant.

I don't think I want to give advice. I don't think I want to councel. I think I'd like to be .... a REFERENCE CONSULTANT

So, if you have somethign that you want to do.... I can come up with some information and references for you.

Would you pay for that? Would you pay for me to research something and print you out the results of the research? eh?

OK... gotta go tuck some kids into bed.... Have a nice night....

How about this... i'll let you have one Reference Consultation Free! Send me one question.

Have a great day!

Surprise..... And Update

Good Morning.
It's 5:18am and it's still dark out! As my kids would say, "is it wake up time yet?"

Everyone is happy and healthy.

Halloween is around the corner. I will have 2 black Bats and 1 butterfly bat fluttering around my house on Halloween. That is if I can get around to sewing the wings onto the shirts I bought.

My parents are here and have been here since last wednesday, as a result I have been able to sleep in my bed.... because it's not covered in laundry. The living room, however, looks like the stone hendge of of laundry.... pillars of neatly folded clothes all waiting to be put away. HA HA HA HA HAHA HA H

Mom and Dad will be staying until sometime on Wednesday. It's been nice and relaxing.

Rosie the wonder dog it well, she is very happy because my parents brought their dogs and she LOVE to play with other dogs.

September was a particularly harrowing and trying month. I will have to remember that for next year, I think it has a lot to do with returning to school... and getting the kids back on schedule.

IT IS NOT THAT I AM GETTING OLD!

and.... I am not set in my ways! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

I had a funny conversation with Slagboy. As you know he filed bankruptcy last year in April (that is his second bankruptcy) ... and... he is now pondering whether he should stay living up north or move back into his house, or whether he should buy another house.

I looked at him blankly trying to imagine the world he lives in.

if you haven't already taken my poll..... (thanks to those that did...) Please take it. I only got 16 responses.... that's 986 shy of how many I was looking for! (smile) ----- speaking of unrealistic expectations! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

Congradulations to M Colkins! Who has repositioned herself a mid a booming metropolis and is living la vita loco! You Rock G-Friend.

Also, Hugs to B the K, who I have sorrowfully neglected!.... I am remembering even more neglect as I recall that I didn't even think to call and wish happy holidays over the recent big holidays... yikes.

Friends in Idaho? You still there? Getting ready to batten down the hatches for the winter and start up your roof shoveling business?

To All.... have a great day!

It's is a balmy 28 degrees out right now.
I just noticed a funny quirk about Weather.com. There is a weather alert and it makes the sound of thunder... even though the alert is for frost.

What does frost sound like?
