With the ongoing process of deciding who I should vote for in the presidential race, i’ve decided to give my views on some of the bigger issues. They probably won’t come in any particular order of importance. My views are my own and I will always back them up against anyone that wants to question them. If for any reason you have a question or an opposing point to what I say, you can post a comment. Just remember I am very passionate in what i believe and have no problems expressing my thoughts. While I may not agree with your thoughts on the same issues, I will do my best to respect your opinions.
Ok for those that read this thing i wrote a blog about britney spears. I think recent events have changed my opinion of her somewhat. As some of you may know she has lost custody of her kids to k-fed. She was warned that it would probably happen. After her warning, what did she do. Well she went a clubbin. Doesn’t sound very mommy like to me. After the court’s decision to take her kids away she took them to k-fed 2 days earlier than the court order. WTH!!! Sounds to me like her kids were just interfering with her party scene. I’m still under the impression she needs help, but after seeing this i must honestly say i really don’t care if she gets it anymore.
Miss Spears, GROW THE HELL UP AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR KIDS AND QUIT BEING A TOTAL F&^K UP!
I’m so sick and tired of people’s b/s. I do my absolute best to treat people like I myself want to be treated only to get chit on. Here is a freakin news flash for everyone. I can’t help what other people do. I’m not their keeper. Everyone does what they do on their own accord. I don’t go around dictating how someone should act. While I maybe friends with someone it does not mean that I agree with everything they do. But that also means I’m not going to choose a side when both sides are as wrong as they could be. If you don’t want to be my friend because of what someone else does then forget you. I don’t have many friends but i’ll be damned if I’ll go around begging or apologizing for something i had no part in just to keep one. I just want a little bit of happiness in life I don’t think that’s too much to ask. But it seems filled with constant petty meaningless crap. So to anyone and everyone that thinks I should kiss their ass or change to suit them. BYE BYE DON’T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU WHERE THE GOOD LORD SPLIT YOU!!!! I “GOT” along without you before i met you and you can rest assured I’ll “GET” along without you!
Today i watched as Michael Vick spoke after the hearing where he pleaded guilty to crimes involving dog fighting. I feel a little better about his character after the speech. He did a few things I really liked. First and foremost he spoke as himself. He did not read from some prepared statement like most thought he would. He did not try and place blame on anyone else for his mistakes. I think Vick has taken in the initial right step forward. Time will tell on how sincere he is. I don’t prescribe to the people should automatically get a second chance. Especially when it comes to pro athletes. They are living a life that most ppl would kill for. I know it’s not all roses but it’s a heck of a lot better than what most of us go through everyday. I was for Vick never playing another down for the NFL. I’m still of that mindset but i will admit with the speech Vick gave today i’m now willing to listen and watch him in hopes he can gain a second chance.
I’m a big fan of the shows Man Vs. Wild and SurvivorMan. Basically the shows are about a man trying to survive in different hostile environments. For example being dropped in a remote jungle and having to find food, water, and shelter. Basic survival stuff. I’ve always thought Les Stroud ( SurvivorMan ) was a little better. In his show he has no camera crew. He basically sets up all the shots and lugs the camera equipment with him. Add to that the fact he is trying to survive in some of the harshest environments on our planet, i think doing the camera work as well is going way above and beyond. Bear Grylls ( Man Vs. Wild ) carries a camera crew with him. Both shows are pretty similar in format. They show you basic survival tactics and helpful tips from their years of experience. A few weeks ago Bear was demonstrating the fact that you can drink your own urine to survive. He fills his canteen full of hot fresh piss and gulps it down. Now i know in a survival situation you do what you have to do. I’d have been perfectly fine with him saying “hey guys, if you have to you can drink your own urine” but doing it when you don’t have to is something i feel he didn’t really need to do. In another episode he pissed on a shirt and wrapped it around his face and head to keep cool. I know it’s just a show and they are trying to give it’s viewers a real idea of what to do in that position. But please don’t drink your own piss unless you just have to.
Like i said, i’ve always liked SurvivorMan over Man Vs. Wild. I believe Les is a little more believable. He at least tries to set up a possible reason and circumstance for being stranded. I even bragged that he was a bit more legit as he did his own camera work. And to top it off i said “at least he doesn’t drink his own piss”. Well guess what! I watched an episode where he DID DRINK HIS OWN PISS. Now it was pointed out to me that he didn’t just piss in a cup and drink it. He used a method to filter the water from the piss. But to me it’s still piss. Add to that the fact that this time he was stranded with a boat and didn’t use the boat to escape. Why the hell would you try and survive in a jungle full of animals and insects that could kill you when you have a damn boat. Les really lost some respect points with me this weekend.
Anyways both shows are worth watching, check your local listings for SurvivorMan and Man Vs. Wild
