Today's News Rants

Anthony cleared of murdering Caylee 

So all the hoopla over this case today. I'm hearing from all over how this was a travesty of justice. She killed her, she's another OJ. First of all she can't afford lawyers that OJ did. Secondly does nobody understand the justice system in the USA? Forget Nancy Grace, she is just an embarrassment. The justice system does not CARE if you sit on a jury and you are POSITIVE she did it, your instructions are to follow the Judges orders. Consider ONLY the evidence that was ALLOWED into submission. You can speculate all you want and you can still be positive, but you MUST look at only the authorized evidence. Otherwise it is REASONABLE DOUBT.  It would be hard to sit on a jury like that. You may know she did it, I personally have no idea, BUT I can't say hey she did it, I just know it. I have to look at the evidence in front of me and put aside my personal feelings. So sorry America, but you're gonna have to deal with the fact that according to our legal system she is innocent.

Which begs the question, in a circumstantial case, how many innocent people actually go to jail? Would you consider that fair? In these days of DNA, blood evidence and such, you'd think we'd never make a mistake, but sadly that is not the case. Pink sings a song in which the lyrics go "No child left behind, we're not dumb and we're not blind, they're all sitting in your cells, while you pave the road to Hell" From Dear Mr President (Bush era) lyrics. So thinking about that, you can listen to entire song on you tube. It is her best work I think. So thinking about that lyric, how many young minority people go to jail for years for nothing? My own son was incarcerated because his attorney did not want to work for him. He did it, but did not deserve 8 years in prison for stealing a stereo system. His Public Defender said that he deserved whatever he got. He was 17. He did not know he could ask for a new attorney and his father besides being an idiot did not care. I had no idea or I would have gone to Reno and done it for him. In any case, he serves HARD time for a minor crime.

Where am I going with this? I'm simply saying that the jury MUST consider all evidence presented to them. A lot depends on the attorney's competence. A lot depends on tainted evidence and inadmissible evidence. So while someone sits in jail for something that should have been a year at most, probation doesn't. If this woman killed her daughter, she does deserve it. Justice has a blindfold on her. So I don't know. Maybe she did and maybe she didn't. She was found innocent. Karma has a way of working out the details.

In other news we have Prince Albert and his bride. Prince Albert 'trying to persuade Charlene Wittstock to stay in marriage'

Yeah, so this looks promising. he has always been a playboy since the day he turned 15. If this is his child who is really gonna be surprised and she really doesn't expect him to be faithful does she? It is a tradeoff and I can guarantee you that before his father died, he gave him a hard day to get married. He needs a legitimate heir. Once she gives him that, I'm sure she will be free to live her life as she chooses. Monaco is not bad, my favorite place on Earth and if you incredibly wealthy, better. I adore Monaco. Anyway, you have GOT to see the photos of the honeymoon suite and lodgings. WOW. We will see her give him an heir, then you watch, she will either spend her 'leisure' time in South Africa or doing as she pleases in Monaco. Just like Grace did. I hope she does not end up like Grace is all.

In yet other fabulous news, Scope of Yellowstone River oil spill may grow

Way to go Exxon. That's all. I am speechless about this at this point. Yes, well stop wishing I actually were speechless followers. LOL Oh but make sure the Republicans continues to give hte big tax breaks to Big Oil. Great idea morons.

Then we have this bit of good news depending on your take on it. Reverse Engineering the Marijuana ‘Munchies’: What Causes Binge Eating?
Now I'd like to know who they got to do this 'study'? hmmm, note to self, check that shit out. If you watch a movie called the Union about Hemp and Marijuana, available on Google for free I think, it is eye opening. I'm sure the snack food companies are like Whaaa???? SHUT UP!!!! yep, they are for sure.

In other helpful news today: How to beat pesky airline fees - 1 - air travel savings 
yea so they made over 3.1 BILLION in baggage fees alone. All the while whining about how much money they are losing. I used to be the BEST travel agent. You can ask any of my clients that I never met over the course of 28 years all word of mouth in all 50 states and 3 other countries. I don't say I was a Travel Goddess, they did. The airlines put an end to my career that I loved so much by not paying us commissions anymore. Couldn't afford it. I remember when we used to get dressed up to fly, when it was fun, when the attendants were friendly, the ground agents helpful and the pilots let you go to the cockpit. Okay I understand why you can't do that anymore, but customer service does not need to down either. A friend of mine on Twitter, Andrea, was tweeting that Delta was charging SOLDIERS returning from a tour of duty in the Middle East $25 per bag. Thanks for serving your country now pay up. They rescinded the fees later that day, but why would they charge them to begin with to a military person returning from a WAR???? I could go on for hours and ok my friends who know me well and actually know I would rant forever about the airlines.

 This kinda makes me sad. Apple passes RIM in U.S. to be No. 2 in smartphone market share  so the iPhone takes 2nd place behind the far superior Android platform and the far superior security of the Blackberry. I hate Apple and Steve Jobs sucks if you ask me. He can make all the money he want's to, but get with it, bring the work back to America, not leave it in China and Mexico. That just pisses me off. It pisses me off when anyone does it, but with all the money he makes on Apple products he can afford US labor. Before you jump me about Android phones, Android is the operating system and is produced in America by Google. the phones themselves are made by whatever manufacturer makes them. Some are based in Korea, Japan, whatever. the American companies should have American labor. I could be wrong on this, but I think Blackberry has it's phones made in Canada where they have their headquarters. Anyway, my point here is SUCK IT JOBS!!!!

Ok I think I'm done with the rant for today, I asked the President a question on the tweety, if you want to and want him to answer it do this @barrakobama (ask question) #askobama I did ask him not to send round any black suburbans or helicopters to my neighborhood now. We'll see. Anyway, if ya got something to say to the pres, here is your chance.

K,everyone have a fabulous day and be cool in the summertime. Did you know that the sun entered into the astrological sign of Cancer on June 21st and stays there the entire cyclical term of Cancer? Yep leaves Cancer on July 22nd. So I wrote a poem about that fact alone. Dark as usual, but I like it. It shall give someone hope. Even the darkest ones do. Anyway that poem is called Sun in Cancer and is on my poem website. It is written strictly based on the fact that the sun is in Cancer this year for the entire term.

Peaceout my friends. Recipe tomorrow for Key Lime Pie. The best EVER. Seriously try it out and see if you don't agree.
