Okay what am I doing wrong with the dang images?!?  Can someone please give me the adding a JU blog image for dummy directions.  I go to photo bucket.  I click on the html link.  I have tried adding it by clicking on the little tree icon to add an image and I get this lovely red x.  Then I tried just plugging the image code into the body of the blog.  Still no go, just a link but no image.  Then I tried copying the code from photobucket that is just the I...

Even more wrong than the Audrey Hepburn Gap commercial.  Even more wrong than the "I feel good" laxative commercial.  There is now a Viva Viagra commercial.  Somehow it seems even more wrong when the artist is dead and not giving their permission to use the song in that way.  I know that Elvis was not known for being the most uppercrust kind of man but I have to think that even he would have to object to Viva Viagra.

So I can't sleep.  Those always make the most mundane and boring blog posts ever.  You can't say you weren't warned.   These are just random things I think about while not sleeping. 

I wish I were a better mom.  I watch Supernanny and wonder why I can't get my boys under control.  I just try to imagine her whispering in my ear "you are in control".  I always thought that I would be a much better parent than my mom.  I figured she taught me what no...

The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much; it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little. - FDR

 

It is so hard being wealthy.  There are so many concerns.  Number one certainly seems to be the fact that they are overly taxed.  It breaks my heart that not every penny they earn gets to come home with them.  They do have to spend some of it for all those horrible and unnecessary government programs, th...

I just read an article about how feminism is going "out of style".  Like that is something that is stylish or not.  She goes on commenting about how young women don't even know who Gloria Steinem is.  I know who Gloria Steinem that doesn't make me a feminist. 

What makes someone a feminist?  They believe that women and men are equal.  That's it, no more elaboration is needed.  You can be a man or a woman and be a feminist.  You can shave your armpits a...

Hola Joseusers!  I can't sleep so I thought I would write a rambling ramble of  a blog imparting of all the wit and wisdom I have learned lately.  No, I'm not done yet, jeesh, you people.  So what to say. 

I finished reading a book today.  Of course, it was a quick and fun read.  Another Stephanie Plum book, The twelve one, whatever that one is.  Twelve Sharp - I looked it up for you.  Stephanie just never gets old.  They should soooo ma...

What do these links have to do with 2008 - um...nothing.  I just am bored so I'm sharing some links with you. 

This is a pretty funny one.  What makes it so funny?  The fact that it's true.  It might be even funnier if you're drunk but it made me laugh sober.

Little Whip hasn't been feeling the blog vibe lately so I told her I would post a Friday Five today.  These aren't my original questions, I found them online but I thought it would be an interesting topic.
