A Sign of The Times

Today's Top News

Budget talks blah, blah, blah.  On the lighter side, I found this story posted on Facebook about one of those DOT road signs.  Apparently Sony isn't the only place being hacked lately.  Someone hacked an illuminated highway sign on a North Carolina highway and had it display the phrase "Impeach Obama".  The problem has been corrected... well the sign anyway.  Click here to read the whole story.

 Today's Farm Report

I've reported on lots of Farmville activity in the past but today it dawned on me that I haven't had any of my friends posting farm pictures or begging for farm gifts.  I guess the great depression and the dust bowl hit so, people are leaving behind the farm in search of work at factories.  If they can't get a job at the factory, they can at least sell their goods to the UAW Chrysler Workers.

Scary Stupid, Scary, & Just Stupid

Today's Top News

There's nothing funny about today's news. I got a serious WTH!?  moment after reading this:

A New England school district has approved a measure that will provide free condoms to elementary school students and direct teachers not to comply with parental wishes to the contrary.


Seriously?  I'm not old fashion by any means but since when did this become ok?  Do schools feel like they can do whatever they want because parents have become dependent on them?  I know I have issues with the schools my children go to but they don't even come close to the above.


The article went on to say:

School superintendent Beth Singer supported the instruction aspect of the rule – explaining that younger boys and girls might not be experienced in such adult matters.

We’re talking about younger kids,” she told the newspaper. “They have questions they need answered on how to use them, when to use them.”

Please tell me that I'm not the only one that thinks these people have no business around children!

Today's Time Waster


I saw the above posted to a friend's status today.  It's from some game called FrontierVille.  Now in all honesty I can't say that I have any knowledge about the game so I don't know how my friend managed to scare away that bear but my best guess is that she invited him to be a friend on FarmerVille, Mafia Wars and Pet Land.

Today's  Crazy Person

I'm sure we all have one of these...

Friend's Status:  I'm just not happy.
Someone Comments:  Why not? What's wrong?
Friend Comments:  I don't want to talk about it.

Can You Grow Weed on Farmville?

Today's Top News

Do two wrongs make a right?  It seems that the guy that does the voice work for Geico lashed out a Freedom Works and called the people of the tea party movement retards.  He said he did it because the tea party people yelled things about Rep. Barney Franks being gay even though it was never proven.  In the end the guy got fired, axed, let go.  You can read all about it here if you so choose.

Zoos, Farms, and Animal Crap

Today's Top News

I guess it was a beautiful day in most parts of the good ol' U.S.A. because many of my friends were either barbecuing or going to the zoo. There was also real news but it sucks and since it's such a beautiful day I chose not to talk about it.  :o) 

Today's Cause

There are great causes all over Facebook for things like breast cancer awareness, support our troops but once again Farmville strikes again.  There is actually a cause so that they will add sending fuel as a gift.  569k members have signed up for this cause! http://apps.facebook.com/causes/379516/113537798?m=d512705f&t=1265742312

Today's Joke

Obama, speaking at a 6th grade class asked ,What Changes Should I Make To America,1st question, A horse, cow,and deer all eat grass. Yet a deer craps little pellets,a cow a flat patty,a horse, clumps of dried grass. Why is that? Obama, surprised thinks a second and finally says,Hmm, I have no idea!and the kid says -Do... you really feel qualified to change America when you don't know sh*t!

Olberman Owned, Gift Cards, and Not So Nice Thoughts

Today's Top News

Someone posted a video from The Dallas Tea Party today.... it is basically their answer to Keith Olberman asking where all the people of color are at the Tea Parties.  I have to admit, Keith got owned!




Today's Pondering

I see people posting all these so and so entered to win a $100 Lowe's gift card... or whatever store.  I wonder if that is a legit thing but I see it lots everyday and have not heard of any of my friends winning.  How about you?

Today's Evil Thought

It was a slow day on Facebook.  I guess the crops have come in and there are way to many people busy with the harvest.  So, I was trying to think of some weird kind of status message I could post and wondering if it was odd enough how many responses I would get..  So, feel free to leave a comment and I might just post it to see how it goes over.  I was almost thinking about telling everyone that my 85 year old grandmother had her boobs done and that I had pictures....  :)

All Heart, Jungle Love, and BFF Stuff

Today's New Story

It seems that Dick Cheney is in the hospital with chest pains.  I read that he has already had four heart attacks and a triple bypass.  Proof I guess that the man has a heart although the majority of people feel otherwise  To show heart here, a prayer for him and his family.

On a local note it's suppose to snow here again in Dallas... a rare event indeed.  So, like a week and a half ago all my local friends are talking snow, snow, snow.   

Today's New Time Waster

It seems there is a new, well new to me, game that my friends are playing called Jungle Extreme.  I guess it's like Farmville jungle style.  I understand that it's fun to play games.  I even admit to having my own farm on Farmtown.  I don't play it much but when I do, I don't post everything I do on the farm to my wall.  Posting these things on your wall let's your friends know that you have no life.  I personally like to keep up appearances on Facebook as if I have more important things to do.

Today's Great Status

To prove while I'm sarcastic, a.k.a. smart ass, I do have a heart.  I thought this was a great message.

Always give a friend a safe place to cry and never be the reason they need to.

I have to hand it to Sarah Palin

Today's Top News

Sarah Palin has started a trend after writing notes on her hand.  A good number of my friends now have profile pictures of their hand with varying notes on it.  Even White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs had to get in on the action by showing off notes he had written on his hand during today's press briefing.  The words on his hand included Hope and Change... I guess those two haven't been checked off the list yet.


Today's New Facebook Look B*tch

Most people just really don't like change (which just shocks the hell out of me that Obama got voted in on that word, onto the real post now) until people get use to the new look of Facebook again, we can just expect a fair amount of bitching.  So, today the big one was somebody had a hard time locating their Farmville gifts.. now we've talked about how this farming thing is addictive and I'm sure it was very upsetting to this person.  :o)


Today's Sweet Love

It's almost Valentine's day and there is love in the air on Facebook. One of my friends wrote all mushy, mushy about how her husband was the best in the world.  The only thing I could think is... sure until tomorrow when he pisses you off.  I know I'm such a romantic.
