Net Neutrality

I hope that everyone had a great New Year!

I came across this video that I thought you may be interested in. It is becoming far more profitable for Internet providers to limit and prioritize your Internet access. From their point of view, the ideal business model would be a television-like system that requires you to pay extra subscription fees to access sites that aren’t included in your standard package of ‘channels’.

That’s it for me today but see you again soon for more information about…

Blog Comments

Recently the stats on my blog have been going up each day on one particular post, (believe me when I tell you it was definitely Not my best post!), and on that post I have been getting at least one comment each day that I have to moderate. While I love for people to read my blog and comment on it’s contents these comments have been getting ridiculous and are obviously SPAM!!

These comments are coming from Russia and the first couple of days they were approved because the comments had merit and the Websites that these people had looked ok to me, (not full of ads to click on and make money…even though my Russian is sadly lacking what it use to be these days), but I have had to start deleting or marking these comments as spam recently as many of them, still on the same post, continuously come back and make generally the same comments now, something to the effect of “good” or “good blog” or “good work”, each time with a different name and Website but with the Same IP address.

Those of you that have been around here since the beginning KNOW FULL WELL how I feel about my blog/blogs being SPAMED as I wrote a very lengthy post about it quite some time ago.

So in closing this post, which I Really did not want to write…

Let it be know to everyone if I continuously receive comments on my posts, especially the same posts, with the exact same comment coming from the exact same IP address these comments will be purged and marked as spam from now on.

I hate to have to do this as I am generally a nice guy gal but I do so hate being taken advantage of!

That’s all for me today, hope to see you back again Reading AND Commenting, (Not Spamming me), soon here at…

T.G.I.F. & U.F.O.’s / Making Rover Over!

Now I do not EVER want it to be said that I don’t love my pets! In fact I love all animals, but I suppose after reading this story, that maybe I don’t love my pets enough because there is something that I find very bizarre about this story!

If nothing else I would not keep the hair that I had combed from the carpets for years and years…I not only don’t understand why anyone would do that but where on earth would I put it?? And I also could not wear the same thing over and over again for 12 years either…and that’s only the beginning!

But I suppose that is what makes the world go round…everyone on Earth seems to march to a different drummer!

Making Rover Over!

That’s really it for me this week! Have a great Easter week-end and see you back again on Monday for more…

T.G.I.F. & U.F.O.’s / HEEERRR’S Johnny!!!

If you’ve been hearing about this weird and creepy video called Rubber Johnny that has been around for a couple of years and haven’t seen it yet then here’s your chance! If you have seen it already then you just may want to watch it again, although, for many, once is enough!

And if you are one of those people that haven’t heard about it then you really don’t know what you are missing!

Rubber Johnny is a 16 year old inbred mutant that also happens to be an insane imbecile. This 6 minute film documents his almost solitary existence. He is locked in a dark basement by his parents who are ashamed of him. Johnny’s parents feed him occasionally and of course yell at him a lot for making too much noise.

Rubber Johnny does have one companion though…his little Chihuahua dog who is completely terrified of him! (I wonder why)??

Anyway, Rubber Johnny spends his days trying to amuse himself and his dog in some Very Strange ways…

Need I say more?

You can view the video here and if you choose you even have the option of watching it full screen if you go to the right bottom of the video screen and click on that option.

Now I would suggest you going to the kitchen and making yourself a nice bowl of popcorn and get a soda so you can sit back and enjoy the festivities in style!

Rubber Johnny

That is well and truly it for me today and in fact this week, I think I am going to go and have a lie down for the rest of the week-end and rest my truly disturbed mind…sometimes I really worry about me!! But I’ll be back! And I’ll see you back here again on Monday when I am thoroughly rested for some more…

Ugliest Building in History?

3,000 rooms of hideously ugly. It’s the Ryugyong Hotel in North Korea, where the world’s 22nd largest skyscraper, (105 stories), has been vacant for two decades and is is thought that it is likely to stay that way … forever!

It is so bad that the Communist regime usually covers it up by airbrushing it to make it appear open or cropping it out completely.

Architects started building it in 1987. North Korea has poured more than 2% of its gross domestic product building it and 21 years later it is still unfinished & unoccupied.

A bootleg video of the tower was made by a very brave videographer that somehow escaped without being arrested…or worse! That in itself remains a mystery!

Ryugyong Hotel, North Korea Pyongyang

Maybe if it were not in North Korea it might, no matter how ugly, stand a chance but since travel to North Korea is limited, to say the least, who can go there to stay in it even if they wanted to?

I guess it may stand a chance…someday, after all the Eiffel Tower was once viewed as one of the ugliest structure ever built and it’s been around 109 years and loved by millions…I guess sometimes they just have to grow on you don’t they?

That’s all for me today! Hope to see you back again tomorrow for more…

Job Hunting in the 2008 Recession

The New Year has just began and already we’re hearing about the 2008 recession! The year has started out with a bang alright but definitely not a good one!

With big time companies like Yahoo! laying off people it doesn’t take a genius to see that times are hard and getting harder!

With unemployment and a recession on the rise everyone out there that has a job should be praying to the Job God right about now.

Companies are dropping like flies and it doesn’t appear to be getting any better!

The average American doesn’t know this, (because it’s not announced on the news every day), but where I live in Holland it is, that the dollar is at an almost all time low and that most countries don’t even want to touch the good old “greenback” right now because it is loosing money faster than they can get it to the bank.

Of course if you’re rich you know this fact and Many of the rich or people that have even a small fortune are moving their money out of America and to countries where they can begin to recoup some of their losses and not loose anymore to this recession.

Living in Holland I see Every Morning what the current rate of the dollar is, it’s announced at the end of the news just before the weather.

Did you know that when Bill Clinton was leaving office that it took only 84¢ to buy 1 Euro? And this morning?

This morning it takes $1.46 to buy 1 Euro! For your information, yesterday it took $1.45 to buy 1 Euro!

Now I realize a penny doesn’t seem like a lot but when your cashing in a lot of money it adds up considerably! For that 1¢ increase in one day if you had 1 million dollars you would have lost $10,000 in just one day!

Now take that and consider that just a little over 8 short years ago it took 84¢ to buy 1 Euro! The amount lost on 1 million dollars is staggering! With the Euro costing 52¢ more now to buy 1 Euro a millionaire would have to pay $520,000 more to buy the same amount as he/she would have 8 years ago! Over half a million more to buy 1 million Euros…in just 8 short years!

I don’t have to tell you that the average Joe can not afford this recession and the average Joe can definitely not afford to loose his/her job right now!

Things are looking bad for America & Americans financially and with what the stock market did recently it doesn’t look as though the value of the dollar is going up anytime soon, in fact, quite the opposite!

So now that you are in bad enough shape what are you to do if you happen to loose that precious job of yours?

Trust me, I know that Unemployment and/or Welfare is not going to take care of you and your loved ones sufficiently!

I came across a site last night that addresses the possibility of you loosing your job whether you be laid off or fired. This site offers a few tips on how to get another job and get back on your feet again.

I don’t know if these tips will help, but if your jobless right now you might need all of the help you can get to landing what many may say, is that “illusive” job!

Don’t get lazy and spend at least 30% of every day trying to find a new job are the first tips, the rest of the helpful tips can be found at:

What To Do If Your Jobless In 2008 Recession

That’s it for me today! Good luck if you’re out there looking for a job and hope to see you back again tomorrow for more…

Married Twins

Did you hear the story about a couple in the United Kingdom that met, felt an immediate attraction for each other, fell in love, got married and Then discovered that they were actually twins??

They were split up and given up for adoption to different families at birth!

Now this is Just My Luck! I can definitely picture this happening to me!

As it turns out this is not a case of in vitro fertilization it was a “normal” conception and birth.

The judge of course had to deal with the consequences of marriage and separation among other things.

The matter has been put to Parliament and the argument has been made that artificially conceived children should be told who their biological parents are.

The judge has stated that it would probably be a matter of litigation in the future if the information is not available to children who have been donor-conceived.

This is all fine and good but what if you are like this couple and Not donor-conceived?

Should you be made to pay the price of all of the misery and heartache that this and no doubt other couples have had to deal with, if you are born of “normal” conception?

After all, these children were given up After birth because for whatever reason and the parents may not want the children to know them or be able to contact them BUT children that are donor-conceived are actually given up Before they are even conceived by people that don’t want to be identified for whatever reason…hence the unidentified donor programs around the world!

I obviously understand both types of parents side of the story but something just doesn’t seem right to me…it seems that the “naturally” conceived children are definitely getting the short end of that stick here, what happened to equal rights?

Tom Cruise On…?

Warning! This video has been pulled off of the Internet by the Church of Scientology

With the Mission Impossible theme playing in the background Tom Cruise says that he has canceled spectatorism in his “area”? According to him we don’t have time for spectatorism any more and “Man, you’re either in or your out”!!

Supposedly you’re either in the field or out of the arena because we have the responsibility to educate and create the new reality.

He wants us to have enough love, compassion and toughness to do it right.

According to him it’s wild, woolly and a blast and there is nothing better than fighting a fight and things are better.

He feels that people are depending on “us” and he does what he can the way that he does everything…”there’s nothing part of the way for me”.

It seems that the question of doing it right boils down to;

Would you want others to achieve the knowledge you now have?

Tom has introduced over 1 billion people on earth and supposedly that’s only the 1st wave he’s unleashed!

What is it??

Well, see for yourself!

If you think that Tom jumping on Oprah’s new couch was bad then you ain’t seen nothin’ yet! In this video he seems way “out of the arena” to me and if that dog has been “unleashed” then maybe someone should get him “leashed”…in a hurry!

Well! That’s really all for me today! I hope you have a good one and hope to see you back again tomorrow for more…
