Damn Mobile Blogger....

So, I have a new church pic that I would love to share. And since I started this blog in August, i have had no problems sending stuff from my phone. Until Yesterday. Now I get a message that mobile blogger doesn't support tmobile. HUH? Why not all of a sudden?? So I posted in Blogger's help group. Who knows when or if it will be fixed... So this evening I will be trying to figure out how to download, then upload then post the church pic. FUN.

Randomness

Awesome Snapple fact:

Frogs don't drink!!

I love it.

WTF??!!

So here are some things that have made me stop and think: WTF??!!

An Internet game in which players roam a school and kill kindergarten students with a shotgun has been pulled from a Finnish children's gaming site one week after the country's worst school shooting.

"We have removed pages from our site that are not necessarily appropriate for younger family members," lastenpelit.fi said in a statement on its Web site.

The game, "Kindergarten Killer," can be found widely on the Web.



You can find this jem HERE on Reuters. All I can say is: Are you F-ing kidding me? "Kindergarten Killer" WHAT!? On a *kids* website! Who are the sick people who make this shit!!?? How did this "game" end up on a kids gaming site? WHO the HELL thought that was good idea???

Oh and this is just disturbing.... Australian boy wreaks zoo havoc while feeding croc

An Australian boy was caught in the act when he fed 13 rare reptiles in the zoo to a crocodile. He killed a few of them and then wanted to climb over the security fence.

The security cameras at the Alice Springs Reptile Center in Northern Territory captured the grizzly images of a 7-year-old boy feeding 13 rare reptiles to a crocodile. The killed reptiles were a turtle, four Western blue-tongued lizards, two bearded dragons, two thorny devil lizards and a 20-year-old Goanna.

The boy reportedly had smiled while he did this damage and bludgeoned to death some of the reptiles. He killed the 13 reptiles in about 30 minutes and as a final act wanted to climb over the security fence into the enclosure of “Terry”, the 11-foot (3.3m) saltwater crocodile.

The boy had attacked the zoo on a Wednesday morning by jumping over the security fence and evaded the sensor alarms. He killed some of the reptiles before throwing them over the crocodile enclosure.



OK.... 7 years old and he breaks into a zoo, kills 13 animals, feeds them to another zoo animal. An the stopped him before he feed himself to the crocodile... WHY? This kid has a serious mental problem to beat animals to death at 7! 7!! Where the hell were his parents? How did he even get to the stupid zoo?

Neindorf said he was now looking at suing the parents of the pint-sized terror,
who could easily have been taken by Terry himself as he fed the croc from a
small landing at his enclosure.
"We'll be looking at suing the parents, who were supposedly in control of him at the time," he said.

Supposedly? Talk about failure of parenting on the most basic of levels. My brain hurts now...

Freak Magnet

OK... for those who don't know me. I am a downtown freak magnet. I don't know why, but they all want to talk to me. Much to my dismay...

In the past, I had a guy, in the dead of winter at the South Hills Junction, ask me if i wanted to go home with him and "drink some booze." When I lived in crafton heights, in front for Gateway center 2 (where EVERYONE waits for buses) there was a guy asking in his distinctive Yinzer accent, for $75 cash to go back "home to atlanta" cause the girl he was with broke up with him after he moved up here. Yeah right dumbass, work on your southern accent... Once on my way to the bus stop to go home, a man approached me with a bunch of roses in his hand and told me that I was "too pretty" and I needed a rose. Except he needed $5 for the rose. I don't think so....

I have tried several methods of deterring these wierdos.... Looking unpleasant, faking turrets syndrome, faking a cell phone conversation, plain out ignoring the weirdo. Right now the preferred method is drowning them out. My Creative Zen Microphoto can get down right LOUD. So, usually, I blast it. People with in 3 feet of me know that I am listening to: Evanescence, 3 days grace, daughtry, linkin park.... You get the point. Its loud.

Today while trying to save my battery for the bus ride, i was reminded that I am a freak magnet. I was walking down the alley past my favorite humorous church. Its 5. There is literally 30 other people in this alley heading for a bus stop like me. Suddenly an older man jumps off the sidewalk and yells at me.

"I know you must be religious! Why do they have the church covered?"

WTF?? HUH?

Shocked, I said "I don't know why the church is covered." I walked away very fast. And i don't know. Its got this black netting all over it but I have no idea why. But to proclaim I "must be religious"?? Why must I be? What if I wasn't? I don't wear a blinking sign that says whether or not I believe in god or not. Why me? Why not jump out at the 30 other people walking by??? What made him think I had the answer?? Who the hell is this guy to badger me about the church anyway? Go inside and ask THE CHURCH!! I am pretty sure I'm going to hell for making fun of the church and all my cursing anyway...

*sigh*

I'm making sure that player is charged.
