Don’t Laugh At Me

Man this sucks. I hate when we have to “fall back” because now it is way dark way early. It’s pitch black outside and it’s 6. There’s no time to do anything at night anymore. I am so ready to get started on all my Christmas stuff and what not. It’s getting close to Christmas Lights time. I’m really excited about that part.

I sure wish we could just get rid of stupid falling back and springing forward. I like it dark in the morning and light at night. That’s how it should always be!

Wouldn’t it be neat if you could send a special text message to anyone and see how you are stored in their phone? I’d love to see how people save me in their phone. You know someone surely has me as something crazy but wouldn’t admit to it.

Random.

This is really an awesome browser. I can’t wait until they come out with the OS X version. Google has done a great job with this. If you have XP/Vista, you’ve gotta give it a try.

So last night I learned what it takes to fuck me up big time. I came home and passed out and then I woke up and ran to my porcelain friend. It is now past noon and I am still not feeling too keen.

3 Hurricanes. 1 Friday’s Mojito Shaker. 2 Jager Bombs.

That’s what it takes to make me beg for mercy.

We all knew this day was coming but didn’t know exactly when. The day finally came this morning and the FDIC had taken over it then sold everything over to Chase. A quick and smooth transaction. Lucky for everyone who banks with WaMu, Chase assumed all deposits so that no one had to lose anything from the deal. Better than what happened with those people down at Indymac Bank.

So which bank is next? I predict that when this is all said and done, only three banks will remain: Bank of America, Chase and Wells Fargo.

Watch your money everyone.

So I was all talking about riding it out at my house but then I decided I was too scared. So I ended up evacuating out to San Antonio on Friday. Fortunately, the traffic was not bad at all on the way out of town. I made it here in about 4.5 hours I’d say. There were some slow spots but it would come and go and wasn’t bad at all.

Nothing like the Gridlock that was Rita. I am going back to Houston on Sunday Morning. I am so bored over here but it will be okay. Everything is okay over there but there is no power. We shall see how long it takes for the power to come back on.

Yesterday, they really had no idea where Ike was headed, but now the center of where they are suggesting is almost a dead on hit with Galveston. I’m hoping it won’t be bad if it comes here. I’m so ready for the hurricane season to be over so I can stop worrying about the storms.

*9 September Update: Looks like we might miss the thing all together.

1900: The year the McCain/Palin duo will take us back to.

My partner and I were in Wal-Mart, of all places, in the check out line turning all the magazines, with Palin on the cover, backwards. There was a lady standing behind us and she was like, “So, you guys trying to make a statement?” Of course we were. She responded “I agree with you.” This is a Wal-Mart shopper who doesn’t like Palin. And remember, we are in Texas.

My grocery store friend then agreed with us that the choice of Palin is patronizing to women. John McCain chose her, rather than a more experienced Republican, just to try and get women to vote for him. Sarah Palin is a crazy woman who supports Alaska breaking off into its own country. How can you say “Country First” when you support your own State’s secession?

And then, Palin has the audacity to say she will not speak to the media until we give her the respect and “deference” she deserves. Respect is earned, not doled out for free. I guess she just wants us to bow down to her, but she can dream on.

Come on McCain/Palin. Answer the tough questions. How are you going to deal with this crumbling economy? When the economy falls apart, how are you going to pay to defend the county? It takes money to power this operation.

McCain/Palin and Bush/Cheney are equals. McCain is bound to die in office. He’s so old. You are voting for Palin, not him. You better check her history. She’s one crazy mofo!

That America is falling apart. This whole Mortgage Crisis is really turning out to be a continuing problem. Banks are still failing; 11 so far this year. It’s looking like Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae are going to take a lot of money from the Government to stay afloat. Believe me, I’m all for the Government saving people from losing their home, but someone, somewhere, needs to pay for this catastrophe.

If you are for the Government not doing anything with private matters, millions of Americans would probably be losing their homes. This is going to be a very expensive lesson, but hopefully lenders will learn a valuable lesson during the time. Those variable rate mortgages should be illegal. It’s bad enough when your credit card rate goes up, let alone a loan over 100,000 for 30 years.

We’ve yet to see the end of bank closure and the Mortgage Crisis for this year. With Freddie and Fannie in trouble, we’ve just hit the tip. If they can’t make it, we’re in for a world of hurt.
