How is this supposed to be funny?

Ok, I don't work in an office any longer. Not even sure if I miss the hustle and bustle. I can tell you if THIS happened to me at my place of work, oh, I would be HEATED!

It is the year 2008. Why is stuff like THIS still happening?

Here's the story:

Man allegedly showed noose to black co-worker
Frontier Airlines disciplines 2 employees, one of whom was cited by police

DENVER - Denver-based Frontier Airlines has disciplined two employees who allegedly made a noose and showed it to a black co-worker, the company said.

Denver police have cited one of the workers for an alleged “bias-motivated crime.”

A man allegedly showed the noose to the co-worker and asked “are you ready” in a break room at Denver International Airport on April 15, police said.

Frontier spokesman Steve Snyder said the man, who was ticketed by police, and another employee accused of making the noose have both been disciplined. Snyder did not specify what actions were taken.

The airline is stepping up diversity training for workers at the airport, Snyder said.


STEPPING UP DIVERSITY TRAINING????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

How to annoy me.

1. Saying You Go Girl to or around me.

I've been sitting on this for a few weeks. Thinking whether or not if I should blog about it. Maybe I'm just tripping. Yeah, that could be it. I've been known to trip about a few things for no particular reason.

There's this chick that I met recently and I noticed how she always switches her pitch around me. Let me explain.

We're at a women's event and I notice when she speaks to the other (white) chicks in the room, she's all "Harvardish" when it comes to speaking to me she will bust out with something like: You Go Girl OR insert whatever slang-ish ignorant sounding connotations you can come up with. I love Martin like the next cat but, there's a time and a place for the crapola.

I've been pondering whether or not to say something to her. The last straw was when she put her hand up for me to give her a high five about something she said. WHAT THE HELL?????????? I laughed it off and acted like I didn't see her do that dumb isht towards me. Ugh!

She might be 'reaching' for a way to 'relate' to me. Who knows. To be honest, I am so turned off by the way she tries to address me on most times that I AVOID conversations with her. There are so many You Go Girl's I can take in one sitting.

Sort of how Hilary Clinton switches up her pitch according to her surroundings. She's traveling to the South, all of a sudden, she has a southern drawl. Stupid. She travels to Philly, and she's all up in the Water Ice. Stupid times 3.

Oprah does it sometimes on her show as well. She will draw out some of her words or make one of those, You go girl type of references. Please. Stop.

Maybe I need to send them an email to let them know they are NOT cute and should stop it now.

Back to chick. What would you do if you were in my situation? Would you say something to her? What would you say? I need help here. I want to be nice. I don't have many friends as it is and I'm not pressed on making any new friends but, I want to be 'civil' and not come out of a bag on her ya know?

Dear Tanyetta (Advice Needed)-Letter One.

THIS IS A LETTER I RECEIVED FROM SOMEONE LOOKING FOR ADVICE.
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO POST YOUR ADVICE IN THE COMMENTS. THANK YOU!


I need your advice.

I have a supposed "friend" that is not
nice at all to me or anyone else for that matter. I have been
very good at avoiding her for the past 2 months.

So, she
texted me, and asked "are you mad at me? BIG MAMMA!" I was
shocked that she called me a name. Umm...are we in JR HIGH?!

Ok, so I called her and said, what is going on? I'm not mad at
her, I just don't want to have anything to do with her. So,
her sister called me and left me a message inviting me to some
BBQ at her house.

I didn't call her back nor do I intend to.
Then she messaged me on the myspace. I feel like I can't get
away from these people, they won't leave me alone. I don't want
to have anything to do with them, I don't want to have a final
goodbye, or an argument, or a blowup.

I feel like deleting my
myspace, getting a new e-mail address, and changing my phone
numbers! Every time I see that either one of those girls have
called me, or messaged me, I get an anxiety attack. (not been
diagnosed, but that's what it feels like)

So, Tanyetta, my
brave friend, what should I do girl? If you don't have answers,
it's ok, I just needed to get this off of my chest. I'm sorry
that this is the first time that I've messaged you and I'm
complaining. Ok, thank you for everything! God bless.

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY ADVICE FOR THIS READER? IF SO, PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT. YOU CAN POST ANONYMOUSLY TOO IF YOU WISH. THANK YOU.

How to become an Ass. (Take notes)

There's a NEW book out. Have you heard of it?

It has the best title I've seen in a long time.

How to become an Ass.
by: Author Martin Kihn

I like the ring of this book too. I just might stroll to Barnes and flip through the pages.

Oh and the best part, he has a BLOG too.  I'm hooked!

A few days ago my feathers were attempted to be ruffled and I was so proud of myself for not going the hell off on certain people. I mean really, you take me as the nice, sweet girl who stays home to take care of her son and goes to play dates and such. Yes, this is a big part of what my life is but, please don't get it twisted, this is NOT all of what I'm made up to be.

The person tried so hard to get me to 'go there' with them and I have to admit, I 'almost' went there with them for a minute. For the most part, I have to admit, I chose to just fall back. I don't crave the spotlight, I'm not trying to prove anything to anyone. I don't have an agenda, a pre-conceived notion that I walk on water.

I have to admit, it was a big FEAT for me to conquer since those of you who know me, know me, like (1985-1991) know me. I was quite the character during those times. Ah yes but, I fall back. I smile and smirk and just imagine shredding people apart in my minds most times.

I take pride in the person that I've grown to become and the person that I'm growing to become each and everyday.

Take for instance, the things that annoy the itsh out of me on a whole, I just let roll off my back now. It's not worth the frown lines or stomach ulcers.  OH the fun days of just calling a person out on the carpet to rap a taste with.  Nope.  No more.  I don't have time for it.  I take that back, we have time for anything we want to do in life.  I'll just say, I won't make time for it.

For the record, my family is OFF limits.  You can talk itsh about me all day long. Bring my family or any reference to them and the 'play nice' gloves comes out.  Cool?  Cool.

You were warned. That's all I can say from this point on. Toodles.

I need a lawyer to break this down for me

If you are a lawyer and you're defending someone and they confide in you that they did in fact commit the crime but, on record, they have maintained their innocence.  It's your job to represent them and prove their innocence regardless right?
Right?
Really?
I guess this is where my job would be in jeopardy.  You're guilty and you confide in me that you did in fact commit this crime and another man is in prison for the past 26 years for something you did. I'm supposed to just sit on this information?  Instead of ratting you out, I with another lawyer decide to write up the confession and seal it in a box.  The contents of the box has been revealed.  Now what?

WOW!

This is an excerpt from the following article.  It pretty much sums up the question I would like an answer to: 

"What I can't understand is you know the truth, you held the truth and you know the consequences of that not coming forward?" he says of the lawyers. "Is (a) job more important than an individual's life?"

Up the chute with a mop pole!

Read the comments to see this post.

Fancy designs on your pedicured toes? Really?

I try to get pedicures at least once a month.  

What about you?  Do you get any fancy designs and tips?  if so, don't admit it.  I can't handle the image.  Thanks.

Do you giggle when they work on your feet?  I am deathly ticklish and have finally found this one lady that KNOWS I am ticklish and she has found a way NOT TO MAKE ME tickle.  She has skills. 

Anyway----
Did you hear about the lady that was refused service because she was TOO fat to fit in the salon chair?  Say what?  You didn't hear about it?

Click HERE and please don't ignore the fact that the video is the AFTER photo.

Do you think the salon was WRONG for refusing to serve her?

What is the first word that comes to mind?

When you see this word:

FAG

What is the first word that comes to mind?  Please be open and honest.

For bonus points, please use your meaning of the word in a sentence.

Thank you.

Murderer escapes in a trash can

IF you commit a crime and get away with it, shut ya dayum mouth.
Yeah, easier said than done.  This one "genius" was so proud of his escape from prison, he decided to brag about it.
Now why would he think people wouldn't turn him in?  Especially if his face is plastered all over America's Most Wanted.  Can you say monetary reward for turning you in!  LOL

File him under stupid criminals.

Open NOW or LATER?

3 year old shoots self in the head.

Do you own a hand gun?  Are you licensed to carry, own and operate a hand gun?
Where do you keep your hand gun stored in your home?
Are your family members (especially kids) aware of the hand guns whereabouts?

I can't begin to imagine what This FAMILY is going through right now.

Their 3 year old found the hand gun in the home and shot herself in the head with it.

She remains in critical condition.  Pray!

Do you think the authorities will get involved in this case?  and why?

70 year old man goes to first grade

How old were you when you first learned to read?
Usually it's around the age of 3 or 4.

Well, what if you were 70 years old and NEVER learned to read?

Would you go back to school to learn how?

This MAN did.

Kudos to Alfred Williams for realizing it's never too late to learn.

Crushing on Clive Owen

My husband LOVES all things Violence and Action when it comes to movies. I prefer comedies and romance. I will tolerate action with a good plot.

We watched Shoot 'em Up tonight. I think I have a crush on the leading man in this movie. Is this proper to say? No? Oh well, sue me.

A well thought out plan OR just crazy?

Do you have a 3rd grader in the home?
I would suggest you have a heart to heart with them.  

Today.

Why? 

They might just go to school with students that come up with horrific plans to shank a teacher.

When I heard about THIS story, I couldn't help but, to think what if this were my child involved in such a tangled web of scandal.

What would make these kids snap like this?
