R.I.P. Getting Closer

The courts today finally upheld the verdict for Anna Nicole Smith to be buried in the Bahamas with her son. My question is why has the woman been dead for almost a month and she is just now headed to the cemetary. First off, the woman said she wanted to be buried with her son. Secondly, why did her mother think that she had a claim. I'll tell you why. The redneck saw the dollar signs and probably would have made a million dollars off the funeral if she had things her way. She already proved that she was about money during the first hearing. When it came out that she took $30,000 to take pictures at Anna's son's grave, she was so speachless that she didn't even deny taking the money but claimed that she didn't understand the question. She also claimed that over the years the only person making money off of Anna was her lawyer Howard. What part of lawyer doesn't the woman understand. That's what he's supposed to do. The mother has never gotten along with her and in all the interviews before the death never had a nice word about Anna but now she is all concerned. Now if she were really concerned, why would she want to take the body back to Texas and ignore all Anna's wishes; and also when the medical examiner called the court to tell them that the body was decomposing unusually fast, why wouldn't she try to just get her daughter in the ground. The answer as stated above and I will add that she doesn't give a damn about her daughter and just saw a quick payday. When judgement day comes for her, I hope she feels that this was all worth it.

Tyra Tyra Tyra

Today I saw a bit of the Tyra Banks Show and at the end she said that she takes some of the responsibility for females thinking they need to be very skinny because of her other show America's Next Top Model. She said to change the image of the show that this season there would be two full figured women featured on the show instead of the occasional one per season. To me this is a cop-out for the simple fact that I don't care whether she has one, two, three, or fifteen full figured chicks on there she isn't going to pick any one of them. She probably said that crap on her show today to get the crowd behind her and to look good. Bitch please. Two out of how many. And also I think she feels guilty because fine ass Tocarra took off without her ass. And as a dude who doesn't know too much about fashion and modeling but quite a bit about fine ass females, Tyra picks some bullshit. Just like whatever season that was when she cut the fine ass Nik who won just about every competition of the season and dominated her compitition in favor of the plain faced Nicole who just about got cut every single week and even up to the last week got major criticism. Tyra said this plain jane hoe could do better in the fashion world. Whatever. After that I haven't watched since. Well one other reason is because they have had some ugly chicks on there the last couple of years. Tyra, stop being jealous of the fine chicks and let them shine. You had your time, let them have theirs.

Blind Eye

Last week I was reading an article in the paper where they are trying to make it mandatory for people leaving prison to have to go through disease screenings, just as they do when they come into prison. The thing that kills me is that some legislators were asking why do screening when someone leaves prison because how could they possibly get a sexually transmitted disease in prison. The person asked responded that he couldn't comment but did say that sexual activity and rapes aren't a major problem in Arkansas prison. Bull. How dumb first off is someone to ask the question about how does a person get an STD in prison. Has this person never watched OZ or any prison movies. Come on. And then a legislator asked that if a person came into the prison with a clean health record and was tested by the prison system upon exit and was dirty, could the person have a lawsuit. My answer is it is a case by case deal but if someone got AIDS from being raped in prison and tried to seek help from jailers and they turned a blind eye, then a person deserves to get paid. Also, that is one of the main things that people fear about jail is rape. Then, what gets me is the legislator that wanted to know about the lawsuits must be more concerned with the prison system's image that the health of the public that the convict is reentering. To clear up any misconception, let some of these people have to spend a week in jail and then we'll see if they're a little more attentive to prison needs.

Rice Luck?

I was just thinking today and it occured to me that every team that Jerry Rice signed to went to the Super Bowl the next year. Now I realize that the only team to win was the San Francisco 49ers but the Oakland Raiders and the Seattle Seahawks at least made it there. There is a grain of salt with the Seahawks for the simple fact that the year after he retired they went to the big game and he didn't play but the simple fact is that he still was there and they still went. Maybe some of these teams that can't make it that far just need to sign him to a 4 game contract and that might turn the fates around. Hey, it's worth a try.

In Perspective

Today, I saw that Britney Spears went crazy and shaved her hair off. The reason that I am talking about this is for two reasons. My first reason is that it is sad that she has gotten to a state in her mind where she feels compelled to shave her hair off. The good thing is that with the reporting of this, it was only on the entertainment shows which lets me know that at least the journalists from the news shows that I watched feel that there are more important serious things going on in the world. Now if they would let Anna Nicole rest in peace, we really might be getting somewhere.

Fed-Ex No More

I woke up this morning and flipped a few channels and I realized that we have passed the Kevin Federline period. It has been a good couple of months since I have seen any print or news coverage about the guy who is famous because of who he knocked up. Am I the only person that is relieved by this small but significant thing. And the good thing is that after the divorce between him and Brittney Spears is over we will NEVER have to hear from him again. Now if we can just do something about that pesky Paris Hilton.

Too Sensitive

Last week I saw that there were numerous Super Bowl ads that had people in an uproar demanding action. One was a GM commercial showing a robot jump off a cliff because he messed up on the job. Suicide activists are claiming this makes fun of depressed people and such. Oh please. Another commercial that raised eyebrows was a Snickers ad that showed two men momentarily kissing; critics said it was homophobic. I'm not sure how many people responded in print to the Snickers ad but the GM ad got 250 responses from some stupid people who must not have anything else to do with their time. Some of the people with problems with the GM ad claimed that because of it, they would never by a GM vehicle. Oh my God, like GM is going to hurt if these losers don't by from them. What these people need to understand is that everything in this world, and I mean everything, is disliked by someone. If everyone got a chance to get rid of one thing they don't like, there would be nothing and no one on this Earth. If you don't like what you see on television, change the channel. If you don't like what you read, turn the page. If you don't like a song, turn off the radio. Hell, I personally don't like country music but you don't see me calling my congressman trying to get CMT and all the country stations taken off the air. These too sensitive people in my opinion need to be boxed away so that they will never have the chance at being offended. To all of those people and anyone who believes that just because they don't like something it needs to be eradicated, get a life and a clue.
