Politicians - Where can you find a sincere one?

 So many promises! And so many to be broken! A child can see a homeless man and point him out. Some people say they are there cause they want to be there.

Crap! Something must’ve happened and I’m telling you it can happen to YOU!

You can become homeless with in a blink of an eye  … why so many homeless!

 Why such a large bracket from rich to poor? Where are the middle class?

  How many of us are a paycheck away from poverty

You have a mortgage! You have health insurance and suddenly Boom!

You lose your job your become ill you’ve lost your home you cant make payments 

And why? Cause your employer finds it easy to let you go- no warning -there should be a claw for Employers if you fire them you need to give them 4 weeks pay…and it has come to my attention some business find it easy to fire you at Christmas time  what a lovely Christmas present -  there is no respect for the worker today

 The workers don’t stick together its every man for himself there is no unified workers where is the back bone

There is no backbone cause they are all to frighten of losing their jobs and I don’t blame them.

So much patriotism but who really exercise it when you really need it - your talk of third world country how they are overworked and underpaid every second American needs a second job just to live!

No wonder so many people lose the plot!

 Is there a solution?

Lets bake a President 

  Recipe of a great PRESIDENT!!!!!

Powerful but real!

Smart but funny

Assertive but tender

He hears and listens 

He takes care of his backyard

Before he takes care of someone else’s

Arrogant but humble  

Give the working class respect and treat them for there worth

Make the big business know how important an employee is

Cause without employees there is no business

Wages should be equal if you are doing the same work as your coworkers

No matter what piece of paper you have or no matter what sex you are

A Healthy health care system

And now for the icing on the cake

 Cut down those bloody taxes!

Cause I want to eat my cake too!

As I get older I'm realizing I'm becoming very vain, why is that? ...It never used to bother me how I looked and suddenly I'm thinking what I would like to have done to my body

Tummy tuck here - lift there... I’d give my body to a plastic surgeon and I would say ‘Fix it’

 But at what price… Russian Roulette would be the game? I’m pretty happy with my looks ...I’m 51and I don’t want to look like my face has been stretched why do we feel we need to look younger ...WHY IS THAT?

  I’M WHAT THEY CALL A REAL WOMAN... I HAVE BEEN TOLD SO MANY TIMES -SO AS A REAL WOMAN I SHOULD BE HAPPY WITH IN MY SKIN

THAT LOVELY LOOKING LADY THAT JUST DIED UNDER THE KNIFE ...DID SHE FEEL WHAT I'M FEELING, SHE LOOKED PERFECT TO ME

 NOW SHE IS DEAD AND HER SON WONT SEE HER EVER AGAIN IN THIS LIFE TIME...

I assure you, he is asking why

 IS VANITY A PART OF AGEING?OR DO WE BECOME VAIN BECAUSE WE ARE EXPOSED TO GLAMOUR IN OUR  DAILY WALKS 

EVERY DAY ON TV, THE RICH AND THE FAMOUS 

IN TODAYS SOCIETY DOES GETTING OLDER  SPELL 'VANITY' 

 BE HAPPY WITH IN OUR SKIN AND JUST GROW OLD GRACEFULLY

 I hope I can take my own advise

One thing I need to say I cant live without my lipstick I want to be burried with it.

SO IF YOU DECIDE TO HAVE PLASTIC SURGERY ASK YOURSELF .

DO I REALLY NEED IT?

Went to “The price is right” I had so much fun- I didn’t get called down, however I can tell you just seeing Drew Carey was enough for my adrenaline to go out of control .He was obliging and funny.I like him.

He took the time to sign a few autographs I was too shy to ask- I do get shy sometime...I just didn’t want to be rejected- I hate rejection By the time I got the nerve it was too late… hey I’m going to go again maybe next time I won’t be so shy.

Melbourne cup is not just a horse race it’s thee horse race of the century - it brings non-gamblers to its knees and the die hard gamblers to its heights.

Always had a flutter on Melbourne cup and this year I will be going down under to the Flemington Race Course and bet a few dollars some know their horses, but I pick them by their numbers I close my eyes and the first number I see I will bet on....I won’t be surprised if Rupert Murdoch will be there after all he is Melbourne born I know Kerry Packer wont be there in body but his spirit will - he always gambled a million or two .

I’m packing and ready to go Americans so wish me luck and hopefully I win a few bucks

 Melbourne cup is on the first Tuesday of November

It's a day when the nation stops whatever it's doing to listen to a race call !

Can't take credit for the title- however I have to say there is a witch-hunt on Brittany!

 I do not believe for one moment Brittany is a bad mom… she is just making mistakes over and over -one day she will learn and maybe pay for it when her children are older.

But for now leave the girl alone... let her search her own soul

 She is forever under a microscope and everything she does is magnified

 I really sympathize for the girl and feel empathy...those children are always going to have a meal and always be clothed I'm sure there are baby sitters and there is also her mom

That ex husband of hers is banking on all of this - he is a vulture and a greedy nobody and as for children’s services, go and do your job where its needed and stop manifesting yourself on to the girl leave her alone

And for any judge that can take those children away just because she’s a little wild when she goes out they need to go back for their degree cause you got to see it for what it is and that is a whole lot of bull!

Today I shared so many tears

A world filled with shock and fear

A nation left in disbelief

Trails of tears reflect on human loss 

 Mother ,brothers, fathers, sisters

Waves of anguish fill the air

Questions asked in despair?

I made a call to God

Please God just this once

Can you turn back the hand of time?

No can do his reply

But...

I will open up the heaven

And gather them all together

And I will embrace them

And with the love you carry deep inside

 You will keep their memory alive

For in your heart they will never die

They will be remembered in forever time

One day you will be together

And together you will forget that dark day

The eleventh day in September   

The woman that thinks she scored by touching Tim McGraw's crotch

Had another thing coming ...His beautiful wife put her in her place

How embarrassing is that! she needs to cultivate her manners

 She should be charged for sexual harassment cause if it were a guy doing it to a female artist (touching her private parts) the body guards would’ve punched the hell out of him...

And then the cops would've arrested him.

When I met Bryan Adams I think that he was trying to get away from me but that's because I was telling him my life story all in the 30 seconds ... I knew all about him so I thought he should know about me. 

I REALLY DONT KNOW THE IN’S AND OUT OF THE ENTERTAIMENT BUSINESS

HOWEVER ONE THING I DO KNOW...

YOU CAN GO DOWN LIKE A TON OF BRICKS!

SO KELLY CLARKSON NO MATTER HOW BIG YOU’VE BECOME THERE IS ALWAYS A BIGGER FISH -IN YOUR CASE (THEE FISH)-IT WAS A WISE DESISION TO APOLOGISE TO THE BIG MAN CLIVE DAVIS 

I BELIEVE THERE WERE A FEW STARLETS IN THE PAST WHOSE HEADS SWELLED UP AND COULD'NT GET INSIDE THE DOOR...

BY THE WAY, LOVE YOU KELLY

MOCKING THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. I WONDER WHAT HE HAS TO SAY ABOUT IT ? I WONDER IF HE IS THICK SKIN... I WONDER IF HE WATCHES AND HAS A CHUCKLE

LIFE IS A STAGE AND HE IS SURELY PLAYING A PART OF IT I WONDER HOW IT WILL ALL END

 I work with the elderly; I’m in the Reminiscence dept in an assistant living home “Alzheimer’s” yes a disease that brings tears to my eyes… at times it’s like there’s an emptiness and just a shell of a human being depending how far gone and sometimes you cant help laughing, my excuse "I'm only human"... but the bottom line, this is serious sometimes I get chills at the thought that  I could be like them… the thought scares the hell out of me. But you know they might forget a lot of things but when they sang

"God bless America" there was a glow on their  faces and the words just flowed out with pride. They were so proud to sing the song... that I realized this is what America is all about "The People"

Those Famous words from JFK...  ITS NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU
BUT WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY! So lets give to the Alzheimer's Foundation and destroy this crippling disease once and for all!

What is wrong with these celebrities! They have all the money in the world and they can’t have a designated driver… how idiotic is that!

Maybe they can’t distinguish the difference between real life and making a movie

Lindsey it is none of my business what you do but when you are over the limit and you are driving you are endangering lives any idiot knows that

 I hope it wasn’t all about upstaging Paris…

While we are on the subject on alcohol I want to say something we are all individuals

I’m not a drinker occasionally ill have a drink and honestly I don’t enjoy it at all

But ill tell you something I started drinking when I was about 8 years of age (Italian family)

We had our glass of wine at dinner time it was there for our taking I never liked it and I have never had a DUI and ill never will I get drunk on my own adrenaline

I would make the law at 18 to drink ,I'll tell you why… Teenagers will find a way to get their alcohol -someone will buy it for them and they will drink as much as they can compact it in the one session …drink till they drop!

 but allowing it and teaching them to drink in moderation you will get more stability its like the forbidden apple -the more you say no the more you want it

 I personally think if you’re a drinker in California you seem to be treated like a criminal

One scenario- you go to a nightclub around the corner from your house you have driven there but you realize you had too much to drink and you decide to walk home… however you are stumbling and the cops see you -they stop you and Bingo! you go to jail for being drunk in public!

 You got to give some slack just because you drink it doesn’t make you a criminal

But if you drink and drive then you deserve to pay for the consequences

So dear Lindsey you did the crime now do the time.
