Give me some good beer, conversation, friends, and music and there is little that will bother me. I try to treat others as I wish to be treated and when I don't, I like to think I learn from my mistakes. I believe most people are trustworthy until proven otherwise. I'm a conversational snob. I have little tolerance for stupidity or rudeness. Common courtesy is one of the best traits one can have. I believe there is conversation that is inappropriate for the dinner table. I love running into people I used to know, but am always happier if I look cute when it happens. I think there would be much less ruckus in the world if brunch were a daily offering.

Looting v. Finding

I could tell watching the coverage of the hurricane aftermath that it was slanted, but this makes me disgusted. I'm not sure why I am surprised at this, but it is just awful.

On a more amusing, albeit still disturbing, note some quotes from the one Bush I ever had fond feelings for:


Former first lady Barbara Bush said of those displaced from New Orleans to Houston's Astrodome: "And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them."

Mrs. Bush also said, "What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas."

Oh Babs.....if only these were taken out of context. I still have a soft spot for ya.
