The Poconos is (finally) blogging

May 18th, 2006

It looks like the Pocono Record has succeeded in what they’ve wanted to do for some time… set up a section for blogs.

Blog the Poconos.

It’s about time someone thought of a blogging community in the Poconos. I know when I worked at the paper we tried a blog called “The Dirt” a while back, but nothing became of it.

I like this one. Very clean design, organized… and best of all, the entries are short and sweet. Like a blog should be. And what a great surprise to see Lois Heckman there. In between all her organizations, projects, activism, running a recording studio and being a Celebrant… I don’t know where she finds the time (???).

Good luck to them all. Check it out.

Happy Mother’s Day!

May 14th, 2006

Whether your children have two or four legs, whether you inherited them by marriage, or you’re caring for someone else’s children as your own…

You are someone’s whole world right now. :)

Relax, it's mother's Day

A little friendly tip

May 10th, 2006

When using axe body spray when you get out of a shower, it’s usually a good idea NOT to have a cigarette in your mouth while spraying.

Also, check the batteries on your smoke detectors since screaming doesn’t seem to alert the family to call an ambulance for you.

That is all.

HELP! Contribute to the Nurse Ran tuition fund

May 5th, 2006

As seen on ~T~ and Ran’s Blogs and all over CyberTown….

OK, this is a first
As some of you may or may not know, my ‘daughter’, my best friend, my roomie, has been going to school to become a nurse.
She has been doing so well, I’m so proud of her!! She only has one semester left until she graduates.
The problem is, according to their website she was supposed to get her financial aid…come to find out, she’s already used her max allotment during the fall and spring terms. And the money for her summer term is due on the 8th

She’s a little short on making her tuition or else she wont graduate… and she’s THIS close!

So we’re asking for a little help from you guys to contribute anything you can to the “Nurse Ran Tuition Fund” set up at PayPal.

The address to send money to is redeagle1@redeaglespirit.com.

~T~ and I go back years. She hosts 75% of my sites. She’s my partner at Problem Adults. This is totally legit, and knowing her and her pride… this is a DIRE situation. Cuz she’d NEVER ask for help otherwise.

A lot of good people have pitched in so far, they’re getting close to the goal… and every dollar counts. Wont you please help a young, struggling single mom become a nurse?
Thanks!

The five most important words I’ll ever say

May 1st, 2006

DON’T. BELIEVE. EVERYTHING. YOU. READ.

I mean really. This is covered in “Web Survival 101″. In life, everything you know is because someone told you it is so (which is why certain regions have religions that they’re willing to kill for.)

The news is jaded as hell, and “Objective Journalism” is a thing of the past. Your best friend is full of shit. And for the life of me, I can’t think of a single time in my life where I ever got in trouble for lying…

The shit always hits the fan when I’m honest.

Anyway, my point.
The Internet is no better. It’s filled with sick bastards looking to prey on our kids, and crooks looking to get your credit card numbers and passwords. Like that famous line from the New Yorker several years ago: “On the Internet, no one knows you’re a dog.” You can be anything and anyone you want.

So why are you suddenly believing every word from every asshole that talks to you?

From Nikki Sixx’s blog:

It has been brought to my attention that there are a lot of people out there in MYSPACE land pretending to be me. I do not use myspace and anybody who is being sucked in by these leeches needs be aware. I have seen a few sites where there are people making plans to meet me,promises of backstage passes,etc etc.This is complete bullshit and I don’t want any of you sucked into it.

MySpace. Gee. What a shock.

We’d neeeeeeeeevvvvver have celebrity impersonators on Problem Adults. That’s for sure. :D

DON’T. BELIEVE. EVERYTHING. YOU. READ.
That advice will increase your survival rate by 226%.

Oh and I’m seeeeeeriously considering never going the honest route with people ever again. Clearly most people want to live a lie and be lied to.
