Are you in rascal or whimsical mode? Then this thread is for you. Got a problem? Say it here. I will start.
American hospitals are all thieves.
Google is a mess.
Congress is a mess.
Life is a mess.
As much as I pretend I hate watching High School Musical, it's actually quite enjoyable... and not just b/c the kid on there turns out to be incredibly hot a few years later.
Why the heck you in Tennessee? If you were closer, I could stalk you. Darn it.
It will take me a while to come up with a good response to this. lol
Take your time.
Meanwhile...
Printer manufactures are all thieves. Canon specifically in this case. I am looking for a hack! I am poor. Can not afford $32 for a color cartridge. I only want to print black and white; I have that cartridge. Damn printer wont let me print without a color cartridge. Thieves.
You could cyber stalk me. (That only took me 11 hours.)
My child arrived just the other day.
Came to the world in the usual way.
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay;
He learned to walk while I was away.
He was talkin' 'fore I knew it,
And as he grew he said,
"I'm gonna be like you, Dad,
You know I'm gonna be like you."
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
"When you comin' home?"
"Son, I don't know when. We'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."
Well, my son turned ten just the other day;
He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad. Come on, let's play.
Could you teach me to throw?"
I said, "Not today. I got a lot to do."
He said, "That's okay." And he walked away,
and he smiled and he said,
"You know, I'm gonna be like him, yeah.
You know I'm gonna be like him."
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
"When you comin' home?"
"Son, I don't know when. We'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."
Well, he came from college just the other day,
So much like a man I just had to say,
"I'm proud of you. Could you sit for a while?"
He shook his head and he said with a smile,
"What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys.
See you later. Can I have them please..."
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
"When you comin' home?"
"Son, I don't know when. We'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."
I've long since retired, my son's moved away.
I called him up just the other day.
"I'd like to see you, if you don't mind."
He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I could find the time.
You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu,
But it's sure nice talkin' to you, Dad.
It's been sure nice talkin' to you."
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me,
He'd grown up just like me.
My boy was just like me.
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon,
Little boy blue and the man in the moon.
"When you comin' home?"
"Son, I don't know when. We'll get together then.
You know we'll have a good time then."
I'm stalking you. You didn't notice? I must be doing it wrong. Grrr...
Come to think of it, I should post this in tech. Never know...
May not be the case where you are, but here there are little businesses that fill up the cartridge for you- 65% cheaper that buying a new one. Also a very good green option! Have a look to see if you can get your cartridges filled where you are.
I do love you to death.
A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while.
But February made me shiver
With every paper I’d deliver.
Bad news on the doorstep;
I couldn’t take one more step.
I can’t remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride,
But something touched me deep inside
The day the music died.
So bye-bye, miss american pie.
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
"this’ll be the day that I die."
Did you write the book of love,
And do you have faith in God above,
If the Bible tells you so?
Do you believe in rock ’n roll,
Can music save your mortal soul,
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Well, I know that you’re in love with him
`cause I saw you dancin’ in the gym.
You both kicked off your shoes.
Man, I dig those rhythm and blues.
I was a lonely teenage broncin’ buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck,
But I knew I was out of luck
The day the music died.
I started singin’,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
"this’ll be the day that I die."
Now for ten years we’ve been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rollin’ stone,
But that’s not how it used to be.
When the jester sang for the king and queen,
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
And a voice that came from you and me,
Oh, and while the king was looking down,
The jester stole his thorny crown.
The courtroom was adjourned;
No verdict was returned.
And while Lennon read a book of Marx,
The quartet practiced in the park,
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died.
We were singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
"this’ll be the day that I die."
Helter skelter in a summer swelter.
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter,
Eight miles high and falling fast.
It landed foul on the grass.
The players tried for a forward pass,
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast.
Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
While the sergeants played a marching tune.
We all got up to dance,
Oh, but we never got the chance!
`cause the players tried to take the field;
The marching band refused to yield.
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?
We started singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
"this’ll be the day that I die."
Oh, and there we were all in one place,
A generation lost in space
With no time left to start again.
So come on: jack be nimble, jack be quick!
Jack flash sat on a candlestick
Cause fire is the devil’s only friend.
Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage.
No angel born in hell
Could break that satan’s spell.
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite,
I saw satan laughing with delight
The day the music died
He was singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
And singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
"this’ll be the day that I die."
I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news,
But she just smiled and turned away.
I went down to the sacred store
Where I’d heard the music years before,
But the man there said the music wouldn’t play.
And in the streets: the children screamed,
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed.
But not a word was spoken;
The church bells all were broken.
And the three men I admire most:
The father, son, and the holy ghost,
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died.
And they were singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die.
"this’ll be the day that I die."
They were singing,
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
Singin’, "this’ll be the day that I die."
The soles of my feet are orange. Why would they do that? Is this the reason I can't dance?
Thanks to PDS, I'm writing a hub at 11.28 PM on a Friday night, which, if nothing else, confirms the fact that I need to get out more. Rant over, only kidding PDS, grateful for the idea!
I want to rip some one's heart out, but there is no one here I wish to do that to.
But what if the someone you chose didn't actually have a heart? I know a few individuals who could be placed in that category. Does that mean someone has already ripped out his/her heart? Or were they born without one?

Gonna be a wild weekend. Catharsis time. Gotta be me. Gotta be a new me. Gotta make things right. Gotta get a life. Gotta do it all. Phoenix.
Google is Evil and will only get evil-er.
Facebook lies and tells me I have notifications when I don't, just to get me to login.
30 minutes and my post is still top of list? That sucks. Fix it!
If it is a problem beyond one's purview, forget it, you cannot do anything about it anyway. However, if the problem is within one's particular purview, MAN/WOMAN UP, assess the problem, strategize what the solution is and OWN that problem,DON'T WHINE about it!
Love the pic. Gonna include it in my arsenal.
Corporations are going to be the death of us. They do serve us and are needed, but some of them are so darn crooked it is beyond belief. Even worse, our laws even help them in their endeavors. Never, ever have anything to do with a contract. SWAG is very much present and is done all the time. In fact, here is a quote from one of my hubs...
"...You also have no civil rights when you blindly give them away by signing a multi-page, fine print contract without reading it. This happens all the time. The days of trusting an entity just because they are a large corporation or an established business are long gone. This is especially applicable as to medical entities, financial institutions, auto repair entities, and pretty much any and all other service related entities. Corporate greed is the rule, not the exception...."
Well, well..., "service related" should be hyphenated. Fixed that. And who said the forums are entirely useless...

Australia faced an interesting government election this year and the word paradigm was introduced into the everyday lives of Australians. Mm, I'll admit, I had to look it up to be absolutely clear what they were saying because within hours of that word being said, everyone in the nation had found a...
