Something to think about...

2009-08-27T09:20:00.000-04:00

Mass. was among the first of the states to pass a law in the wake of 9-11 obliging all within the state to submit to vaccination; the laws in each state allowed the governor to seal the borders and impose innoculation upon those thus contained. Mass. also has been among the first and the heaviest in requiring all residents to carry health insurance.

Not an Obama Fan....

2008-08-29T17:33:00.004-04:00

and I'll explain why.

The day isn't over and yet the Obama is already attacking new VP pick Sarah Palin.

What Joe Biden said about her was even more despicable.

She has executive experience, was mayor of a small town (9,000) and fought hard for the people of Alaska.

Sarah Palin is a Governor and a former mayor. Joe Biden and Barack Obama have NO executive experience.

Cut the woman some slack.

Obama has a half-brother in Kenya living in squalor...and he won't do anything about it.

He's "friends" with known terrorist Tony Rezko.
Was a member of Pyscho Jeremiah Wright
Thinks Iran isn't really a threat
Constantly bashes McCain for no reasons
Can't get the facts straight on anything
Constantly flip-flops on issues

Obama, there's only 50 states. Where the heck did ya get 57? (ahahahahahahaha!)
Joe Biden has a bad case of "foot-in-mouth itis"
His middle name is Hussein..and that bothers me.

When evangelican pastor Rick Warren interviweed mCCain he was able to answer quiestions, without hesitiation.

I support John McCain because I know he's a good candidate for President.

Walking Away...

2008-08-22T21:14:00.001-04:00

One of my favorite songs by Craig David (I included the video below).

It applies directly to my life, my troubles.

Touched me deeply, because that's what I'm going through right now.

I want to walk away from all those phony a$$ people who only pretended to be my friend.

I'm walking away, to find better days.

Appearances Aren't What They Seem

2008-08-22T20:43:00.000-04:00

Appearances can be deceiving...and I found that out the hard way.

I thought I could depend on my "friend" J. I thought that we would be close friends for a long time.

But when a person is going through tough times, some people tend to shy away from that person...and not be there when they're needed the most.

I asked J to loan me some money, so I could get myself back on my feet. He promised that he would.

I never got the money that I needed and now he hardly talks to me. I had done nothing wrong to him, and yet he treats me this way.

With a friend like him, who needs enemies?

I feel disappointed and saddened. He failed to be there for me when I needed his friendship the most.

I feel like I wasted my time with him. I had suspicions that he wasn't being truthful to me about certain aspects of himself.

I'll continue to talk to him, but by email only.

At this point, I consider out friendship nearly non-existent.

The Secret

2008-03-23T12:46:00.001-04:00

The Secret has become a world-wide phenomenon. Ever since its release in 2006, thousands have implemented the Law of Attraction.

Unfortunately, the free version is no longer available at Google Video. You can visit http://thesecret.tv and watch it for $4.95. When I find a free full-length version, I'll be sure to post it here.

Join me on Helium

2008-01-07T21:23:00.001-05:00

Helium works a lot differently than Associated Content. At first, I found their interface hard to understand, but that's no longer a problem now.

I just published my first article and it will be viewable in the next couple of days.

What's Gone Wrong With Britney Spears?

2008-01-07T11:04:00.000-05:00

I feel nothing but pity for her. Look at the mess she's gotten herself into.

I feel sorry for her children. What kind of parent is she? Not a very good one.

Why is she destroying herself like this? Doesn't she care about her children?

Had she truly did, she would've gotten help for her problems BEFORE things went into a downward spiral.

Why isn't her family doing anything? Why didn't they step in and do something drastic?

If this were happening to a regular person, would it be all over the news? Most likely not.

Britney is the poster child for bad parenting. She should NEVER get custody of her kids back.

If she continues her path of self-destruction, she may not live to see her children grow up.

I'm surprised that Britney isn't in jail by now. I am convinced that jail time would straighten her act out.

I don't agree with how Dr. Phil intervened. He could've done it differently. However, it was a wake-up call.

Britney brought her problems on HERSELF. Dr Phil wouldn't have done what he did if the situation wasn't dire.

What goes around, comes around. Britney is the prime example of a woman that should've never had kids.

She's her own worst enemy. Only BRITNEY can change things around.

"Landlord "Woes...

2007-10-21T11:15:00.000-04:00

My landlord made me leave the house for a couple of hours...just to entertain his girlfriend.

I live in that house, too. Why should I have to leave?

He accuses me of "interfering with his social life".

I stay to myself and I have a boyfriend of my own. Meddling around in his "personal affairs" is the last thing on my mind.

It's about time I leave that place. I'd rather be by myself than living in misery.

On the Weight Loss Path...again

2007-08-24T22:21:00.000-04:00

As I was surfing the 'Net, I came across this cool site called MyFitnessPal.

I've been members of weight-loss sites, and most weren't worth sticking around. The interface was so difficult and unsightly. I spent more time trying to figure out the site rather than using it.

But when I joined MyFitnessPal, that wasn't the case. They have a calorie counter that's easy to use, easy to navigate:

Calorie Counter

For me, counting calories online is much more convenient for me that doing it on paper. They even have a tool where it shows the complete nutritional data of a particular item. Some may say that calorie counting is too strict. For me, I must.

I've struggled with my weight since age 18. Not watching what I eat has led to a 100 lb weight gain. This website has helped me to make better food choices. I now avoid certain foods because they actually make me gain weight. I'm more careful of what I eat.

Calories in Food and Calorie Chart

The best thing is: the site is 100% FREE. No credit card is required...ever. No monthly or yearly membership payments. It teaches others how to make proper food choices by analyzing nutritional data.

Try it out. The site has a simple layout, not riddled with useless graphics or text. Easy to use and straight to the point.

6 months too Long!

2007-08-23T20:59:00.000-04:00

Being away from my blog for six months...not good.

I have to step up how frequently I post. I have so much catching up to do.

I had a lot of health issues and personal problems that kept me away. Deal with that first and then back to work.

I will try to blog at least once a day or once a week.

Try Out PayPerPost...

2007-08-23T20:48:00.000-04:00

I joined PayPerPost a couple of months ago, but life got in the way...and I forgot about my blog (and PayPerPost).

Now that things have calmed down, I can blog full-time without incident. I'm giving it another try and seeing where it takes me.

More About Alli (the drug)

2007-08-23T20:13:00.000-04:00

I originally posted this on Curezone's News Forum:

Someone please tell me what's wrong with this:

Click Here

First they come out with the drug, now there's a BOOK?

And did you know that Alli was originally called Xenical? They just renamed it and made it available to everyone (over-the-counter).

Xenical is now Alli

My mom used to take that stuff (Xenical). Didn't do a bit of good.

Why can't people just exercise and cut down their portions. I know I need to lose some weight, but would never resort to drugs like Alli

I feel sorry for those who take Alli. The side effects are quite...explosive.

Not worth the risk.

HUH?

2007-08-23T20:12:00.001-04:00

I saw on another site that the amount of formaldehyde in our food is very small...HELOOO? What is it doing there in the first place?

http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/tfacts111.html

First, they poison people with artificial flavoring, now with formaldehyde. Very scary stuff.

What's next, artificially flavored produce? ICCCCKKKK!

Wonder what's in that strawberry shake from McDonald's? Nothing I'd want to consume

2007-08-23T19:53:00.000-04:00

Moving On....

2007-08-22T21:15:00.000-04:00

Hopefully, by the end of this year, I'll be back in NYC.

Living on Long Island is great...but if you don't have a car, it's hard to get around.

Why haven't I gotten one yet?

It's too expensive for me right now. Why get a license with no car?

Plus, public transportation in NYC is superior to LI.

At least NYC Transit runs 24/7, 365. Out here in Suffolk, the buses stop running at 7:05pm. No buses on Sunday. That sucks.

In NYC, work is far easier to find. I can hop on a bus and not have to worry if I missed the last run of the night.

I know I want to move to Queens...but where is the question....

Update: 6 months later.

2007-08-22T21:09:00.000-04:00

It's been a while since I last posted.

I was sick with heart problems, gum problems and dehydration. I'm just getting better, and ready to blog again.

I apologize for being absent so long.

Rejected!

2007-02-01T00:46:00.000-05:00

My blog was rejected by PayPerPost. I had a feeling that would happen. I didn't have enough entries and that was why I got rejected.

I definitely need to write more in my blog. 3 entries a day, tops. No more, no less. I've been so busy trying to find a new job that I neglected to write in my blog. Won't make THAT mistake again.

Get Paid To Blog, Part 1

2007-01-14T22:21:00.000-05:00

Yet Another Reminder....

2007-01-13T19:52:00.000-05:00

I forgot to mention that the topics on my blog will change. Check back frequently for the latest updates.

More Updates

2007-01-13T19:41:00.000-05:00

Since my last post, I've been cleaning house!

Since this is the New Year, I decided to get rid of elements of my blog that I felt served no purpose. To regular visitors of my blog, you'll notice that the Google AdSense and the PayPal donation button is gone. My Textads.biz ad is gone as well. I never made any money with Textads.biz, so why keep their code on my website?

I've also changed the template from Minima Dark to Rounders 2 (for those whom are familiar with Blogger templates. I felt that Minima Dark was too ominous, too gloomy.

In the next couple of months, I will change the template again. I want to keep my blog looking fresh and updated.

And yes, that's me in the picture.

Announcement!

2007-01-13T18:49:00.000-05:00

To the PayPerPost Staff:

Someone recently hacked into my blogger account in mid-December of last year, erasing every single posting since August 3rd, 2006.

I never found out who did it. My account is back under my control. I want to be a part of the PayPerPost community. I promise to keep my blog updated on a regular basis. I have been setback quite a bit because of that hacker, but I won't let it stop me. I am writing new posts and my blog will be updated by the time you review it.

I never thought that someone would be so heinous.

Took a Break...

2006-08-03T10:46:00.000-04:00

I took a vacation from blogging. I've been trying to get my weight under control. I've had a little success, but not enough to be noticeable. I've decided to become a Raw Foodist.

I know, most people consider it outrageous and extreme. Some consider it dangerous, especially for kids. Storm and Jinjee Talifero are raising their kids Raw and they're perfectly healthy, more so than most of us. If it works for them, it can work for me.

I will keep everyone posted on my progress.

Internet run by Telecomm? I Don't Think So!

Visit these websites and see for yourself how Congress is planning a takeover of the Internet:

Save the Internet

Commentary: Keep the Internet neutral, fair and free
By Craig Newmark

I can't believe that someone wants to destroy the Internet as we know it. If that law is passed, the Internet we know and love would be a thing of the past. Lots of people make their living off the 'Net. Imagine what havoc would be wreaked on them. Do NOT let Congress take over the Internet. Keep the Internet neutral. We don't need Congress screwing around with it.
