Infidelity And The Run For Office
It’s being said that Herman Cain cared less about the Presidency and more about selling his book. Well, since Cain is now out of the race guess he’s got a lot of time to do just that ... sell books, and sparing us the remake of Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky … the squall.
Frankly, I’m elated the Cain is out of the race! From day one I’ve not cared for the man. Yes, he may be able to run a pizza empire, but as for holding the highest office of the land, I just wouldn’t feel safe with him holding the keys.
The next one I want to see go, Michele Bachmann … a Betsy Ross wanna be! Please, what a buffoon!

Her platform sounds like what we hate about Islam and Sharia Law. I don’t mind my President being a conservative, but to hear Bachmann say that she would make same-sex marriage a constitutional issue sent a shiver down my spine.
Though I don’t agree with same-sex marriage, using the Constitution to ban someone’s life-style is morally wrong. And in this case, it smacks the separation of Church and State in the face … the force behind banning same-sex marriage is the ultra conservative Christian movement and their supporters … I think of them as Christo-Islamists. Remember Germany!?! Personally, I can’t wait for same-sex marriage to reach the Supreme Court. Moving on ...
What we really need, and I would vote for, is a modern day Margaret Thatcher for President. Now she would be a kick ass President!
Oh, and more thought … LOL
I really have a hard time believing in a candidate who says that God told them to run for President. The only reason a person runs for the highest office in the nation is purely all about POWER.
My thing is this, as crooked as our politicians are, I seriously doubt that God had anything to do with their decision to run for President. It seems the only time a candidate is all about “God” is when they’re racing for votes. Other than that, God is the furthest from their minds. Therefore, when they invoke God’s name, I become pessimistic and tune them out. I’m just saying :)
Crash!
After six years, my Jurassic desktop computer finally bit the dust! It’s not like its demise wasn’t expected … over the past several months the tower was sounding more and more like an un-oiled machine causing me to give thought to purchasing another computer. Well, my tower finally gave up its soul and died. The only down side was not backing up my files, resulting in losing a shit load of data, most of which is not replaceable.
Needless to say, for the last several weeks I’ve been busy downloading and setting up my new computer. Have a bit to do till I’m up to where I should be, but at least the most important stuff has been installed, including what data I was able to recover.
By the way, I purchased a new Compaq laptop. Being tied to a desktop is the thing of the past … it’s all about mobility baby! And I be loving it!
Have to wonder how I survived when there was no such thing as cell phones, laptops, and the internet? Solely relying on your brain and manually scripting is truly an art form of the past. Nonetheless, I have to admit that I enjoy, as well as totally embrace today’s technology which has become my life’s heart beat. Anyway, I’m happy with my new laptop ... an early Christmas gift to myself.
Chemo Update:
Back in September I completed round three of chemo treatments! This last set of treatments was much kinder to my system with less pronounced side affects. The only thing, I shouldn’t have followed up my one treatment session with getting the flue shot. Not sure, but I think I had a reaction to this years immunization cause on this particular evening and for a few days following I sure felt like hell … my body felt as if it was on fire!
Word from friends tells me that they too had a reaction similar to mine, but not as severe. I tell ya, it wasn’t fun! I hate being sick, but, hey, it is what it is … chemo is just that, chemo. Anyway, I’m glad it’s over for now. I return to ready for round four this next month.
Honestly, I hate having to go through Chemo. The process itself isn’t all that bad … it’s the side affects that throws me for a loop and drives me crazy.
If I had to choose between my heart attack and open heart surgery and Chemo, it certainly wouldn’t be the latter. Comparatively, my heart issues was a piece of cake … at least the pain and recovery was a piece of cake where as with Chemo it’s an ongoing issue of feeling sick for four out of seven days.
Thus far, I’ve only missed two days of work due to feeling totally sick ... I call it my chemo hangover. However, if it wasn’t for work I don’t believe that I would be able to undergo treatments … now nine months and counting. At least work allows me to refocus my attention away from the chemo side affects and being around my co-workers, who are nuts and crazy, makes me laugh and feel fuzzy which really helps to lift my spirits.
