How can Google Plus be so confusing? I never really joined it, I mean I guess you kind of do if you have a Gmail account lol. I seemed to have joined it with two different emails. It's difficult when they make you use a certain email, for instance, I wanted to use a gmail to join Google Plus, but it wouldn't let me for some reason, I had to us an Aol.com email address. I just gave up, went ahead and signed up, so now I have two. I'll use one more for my blog stuff. The other can just sit there lol. I wanted to sign into my Youtube account as well, and I couldn't log in with just the username, it forced me to log in with an email account. Okay so I tried using the email that I had for that Youtube account, and again it wouldn't let me, so I had to use the Aol.com email address again. OH BOY!! I was getting frustrated. So now when I want to Continue Reading
Bullies? What Are They Thinking?
I was watching the Today show early this morning, and there was a segment from last month I believe. It discussed the videos that kids were putting on YouTube, in regards to asking if they were pretty or ugly? Youtube does not allow anyone under 13 to join but there were a lot of younger kids on there. No surprise there hey? Well these kids, they put themselves out there not knowing that bullies will come out of the wood work like no tomorrow, only to criticize them. So of course they will be put down, made fun of, etc. I often wonder what are these bullies thinking of? What is in their mind to really put someone through the BS that they put them through. Hasn't there been enough negative media about the results of what bullying can cause, and isn't that enough to just stop!!?? No it doesn't seem like it is, I really don't know what Continue Reading
Gun Toting Dad Responds To Daughter Via Facebook!
I was watching the Today show this morning, and they had a segment on a father (Tommy Jordan) who replied to his daughter (Hannah's) post on Facebook in a very shocking way 'Facebook Parenting: For the troubled teen!' Wow go Daddy! Apparently the daughter posted some very harsh things on Facebook about the way parents treat her. Thinking that that they wouldn't see it by blocking them. Oh boy was she wrong! The father is computer saavy, works in IT, so naturally he was going to find it, especially because a few months earlier she had done the exact same thing. It's an 8 minute video the father made in reply to his daughters post on facebook, here is the video, see for yourself. The response from teens is astronomical, agreeing with what the father had done, not to mention how many parents agree with what he did. Yeah it's SHOCKING Continue Reading
Doomsday Preppers – Should You Be Worried Too?
The other day, we didn't have much to watch on TV, so we decided to browse ONdemand (absolutely love this, we're able to catch up with shows we may have missed) and see what shows are out there that we never seen. So one night we were looking through the networks, and stumbled on a TV show called Doomsday Preppers on the National Geographic channel. Who are they? What are they all about. Well long before we stumbled on this TV show, we had stumbled on a few others withe similar topics. I have to say, I didn't really pay much attention, although it did spark an interest in both our minds. We got really curious. As time passed, and we kept seeing more and more. So naturally we would watch this stuff. I don't know for sure if anything will happen, there are people that have their predictions, and so forth. Does it worry me, sure it does. Continue Reading
30 Days Of Truth – Day 13: A Band Or Artist That Has Gotten You Through Some Tough Ass Days
This 30 DOT is a really super hard one, because I have never really turned to music for comfort in situations, I feel odd saying that, because I know a lot of people do. I guess I'm the odd one then. I think listening to music would depress me more than lift my spirits, funny I know, but I feel that is true for myself. I'm going to give myself some time to think about this, but honestly I don't think I can come up with anything. Well I thought about it, long and hard, and I still can't really connect with any band or artist. As much as I would like, there isn't any at all. I think when tough times come, I just want peace, maybe do a bit of reading or watch a film. But as much as I love music, not one song I can think of has ever been comforting. They are all just different, and even though some may start to relate it goes into a Continue Reading
