cute as a button

[01] How has Steve Jobs' affected your life and the products you use? It has had a huge impact on music, how easy it is to upload and use, an there is our Mac Mini that is hooked up to the living room telly. I'd love a Mac AirBook... but that is not an inexpensive model. I'd love to have an iPad II, but we shall see. Those are expensive, too. But think of the beautiful meld of technology, usability, and aesthetics that one gets with a MacBook or an iPad. What is that worth? What isn't it worth? Steve Jobs was a visionary. He was a technology guru with a flare for aesthetics. The world was rocked time and again by his inventions and visions brought to life. The world has just been rocked by the loss at age 56 of a man who brought magic to Pixar, to music lovers, to the world of technology users. He will be missed like no other.
 
[02] Have you ever had your email hacked? I haven't but I know a lot of people who have had that happen. I've usually found a way to let that person know about this and found a way to let them know nd get them to upgrade their passwords into something more difficult and secure.
 
[03] Have you ever done something radical to your appearance out of boredom? Sure. I don't know anyone who hasn't!
 
[04] How do you feel about Sarah Palin not choosing to run in the presidential race of 2012? Naked screaming relief. I'm told her advisors coach her on what to say, but she has proven to still be a complete and utter idiot. How does any American not understand the role of historical hero like Paul Revere, who quietly rode to houses along a route and let them know that the Hessians were coming. She had a totally different answer: He who warned, uh, the … the British that they weren’t gonna be takin’ away our arms, uh, by ringin’ those bells and, um, by makin’ sure that as he’s ridin’ his horse through town to send those warnin’ shots and bells that, uh, we were gonna be secure and we were gonna be free … and we were gonna be armed." Please don't let someone - ANYone - this abysmally stupid near the White House, please. Who needs another Dan Quayle or George W. Bush? Wasn't it enough that we had them?!
 
[05] Isn't this so incredibly cute? I assume you mean the little button graphic. Yes, it is! It's very cute. Where can I get one? I wanna cute button, too, dammit!

Interesting Aftermath a From Season Five of "MasterChef"

Do I agree with this? You will have to read it first and decide for yourself. I had long since made up my mind before finding this article. MasterChef Season 5 Fixed: Courtney Lapresi Won Finale After Getting Preferential Treatment – Former Stripper Favoritism BY  STORMY ELIZABETH  ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 "They say if you can’t take the heat, you should get out of the kitchen, but what if you like it hot? If you’ve been watching  MasterChef this season 5 , you may have noticed that one contestant in particular seems to  be “winning” challenges  when her dishes don’t seem to be quite up to it.  Courtney Lapresi  has been billed as an “aerial dancer” on the show. So what exactly is that, you ask? It’s a fancy word for stripper. You may term what she does as burlesque, but nekked is nekked and she takes off her  clothes  when she dances, so you have to call them as you see them. Plus is it really...

The Longairc-Green Family

This is a family that was on Nanny 911 , the precursor to Supernanny , which airs on Wednesday nights. While Supernanny is a better production and leaves out some of the dopey American-isms of stupidity (such as the opening scene with a much older nanny head whose television showing the family and their issues turns around into a painting on the wall), this show has its value. These families are clueless or don't bother to try and definitely need help. This family is an exception in that the mother couldn't care less what the monsters do and will do anything to mollify them. The father is more consistent and definitely takes a much more disciplinary stance, but the mother undermines it at every step of the way. The two boys are so unbelievably rude, I'd've killed them where they stood. The little girl only wanted a moment of attention and was not doing anything negative, and the mother was awful to her. The nanny, Nanny Stella, spent the first day observing. When she s...

Shocking!

I always open my day at work by starting up my various programs that I'll bounce back and forth between throughout the insanity that is my normal workday. And they are always in the same order: Internet Outlook Microsoft Excel Microsoft Word The timekeeping program, GenPro, is always running. This is not me being unbelievably anal or just a little OCD, this is logic. I know excatly where everything is. It's just good organisational skills. When I open Outlook it is almost entirely for the e-mail. Yes, I do know how to use all of Outlook (well, 80% of it, any way, but since I use my belovèd Franklin Covey Time Management system (the physical book, not the electronic solution), I only use Outlook for e-mail. What is so shocking, you may ask? Be patient, I'm getting to that. I open the Internet and the default page is Wikipedia, in English. I happen to love that site and skim over whatever interesting things it may have, such as: Today's Featured Article The word thou was...
