What a person makes sifting for diamonds. It's called blood diamonds because of the civil war that ensued in Sierra Leone and the deaths or maiming of it's people. I’m watching Current TV where there’s a program about this. The journalist is interviewing one of the miners who has been having a difficult time. He hasn’t found a diamond in two months. So he has been struggling to make ends meet on 30 cents a day. If they find a diamond, they are lucky, they will get a small percent...

I was thinking about this song, "Thank Heaven for Little Girls" by Maurice Chevalier..from the movie Gigi...a movie I love to watch and I think there was a series too. Or was it the series and then the movie? Can't remember....anyway...I've been listening to oldie but goody music as well because my oldest girl is going to audition for a role in a play at school and it's a 1920's thing. So we've been listening to Etta James, Ella Fitzgerald, Lena Horne and some other songs and music fro...
It seems the news media people have nothing better to do than to show Senator Barack Obama shirtless. Mind you, the man is on the beach getting is swim on, relaxing, having a fun day in the sun! When asked about it, he said it's embarrassing and "it's er, er paparazzi!"! So true! Not only are there video shots, there are also print and online coverage! Some people are saying how flabby he is. He doesn't look all that bad, to me and some folks. The guy could have had an overly ex...
This one just takes the cake! How in the world they expect people not to be grossed out? Although it's aquarium fishes, and not the ones you actually do fish for! I dont' think my pet fishes would like this idea at all! Link
When I saw this video I felt very afraid for the woman...even with the dialogue from the person reporting, just looking at the lion grabbing the woman is enough to give me chills! But, he gave her a lion hug! Wow! Link
David Beckham will be leaving his European team, Real Madrid for a team in Los Angeles, the Galaxy, when his contract ends. I wonder what his fans will think about this? Here's a link to the story: Link
Would you consider this woman rich or poor after reading her story? Her name is Karen Datko. She once had a very good job and considered herself Middle Class. She lost her job because the company was sold, then when she moved out of state to get another job, she had problems with getting housing because of her 3 dogs. Because of her state of homelessness, by living at a camp site, she was fired! Her boss actually told her that her living situation was not a good image for her job! W...
I was not surprised when I read this article about identity theft of children's social security numbers. People, brazen, good for nothing criminals are out there stealing our children's identity! This is why I don't give out my children's SS number, they don't know it and they won't until they are 18. If my oldest wants it, which she had to when she was getting a part time job, it has to be a very good reason. I keep the cards until such time as I'm ready to give it to them. One ...
I'm suddenly in the mood to share my zany mood today! Yeah, uh uh...I'm in a good mood, considering I woke up with one of those migraines this morning. But I'm better now and in a much better mood. No longer foreverfrustrated ...lol....boss10__ now I've gone and forgotten his handle - sorry boss!) He was funny and that made me do one of those laugh! I like people who can see the funny side of things! Anyway, I've been humming Billy Joel's song My Life and also I love Rock and Ro...
I took time from my reading and responding because JU is doing it to me again! For the last month I've been having problems with the site, on and off. I accepted this because I know it gets busy and with all the new stuff being done, sometimes things don't work right. For example, not being able to respond, being asked to log in when I'm already logged in. Being kicked off when I'm logged in, and other zany things I can't remember. It is becoming an irritating itch now because to ...
I heard about this some time last year and didn’t really like what I heard at all. Prospective parents who can choose what their children will look like. One woman who was interviewed, [her identity was protected], said she wanted her child to have blue eyes. I’m not sure if she couldn’t have children, and I think for her that was the case and she was having donated sperms. The owner of the company who lets parents make these choices said that her clients just want to be parents and ...
