Top news today comes from my own little corner of the world. Last night during Lost the local news ran one of it's many commercial spots for the ten o'clock news. We've all seen the promos for the news, and if any of you out there are like me then you read enough news during the day to make you detest the local news at night. Close minded you might think, but I look at it as the only thing standing between myself and a twelve gauge on most days. Let's face it if I had to hear about all the bull carried out in my immediate location there would be far more acts of vigilante justice then the government would be able to smile on. Anyway, a promo pops up and the lead story...peanuts are being banned from one local school due to six kids having an allergy. Six, and this is not a small school. So now there are signs posted all over the school proclaiming the school to be nut free! Large posters of peanuts with slashes through them, and parents talking about how much better they feel knowing their children are now safe from peanuts. I love the ridiculousness of this, I really hope you all know how much I love this. The Sig and I laughed ourselves silly.
Peanut banning aside, I read a horrible news piece this morning about a school that covered up the molestation of a six year old resulting in four other six year olds being molested. Horrible as the story itself is, the school is fighting allegations that protecting the children was their responsibility. I can not even begin to express to you how disgusting I find these people.
Where is that fine line? The one between ridiculousness and criminal? I always thought the line was painted in bright red and five miles wide but the more I hear and read these days about the happenings of our world I am seriously beginning to question if the line has faded or if all the people in positions of educational power have lost their ever loving senses!
Rest assured your child will not be exposed to peanut butter, but they might get fondled in a bathroom. How's that for higher education?

Harry, Oh Harry
The news was pretty happy today. Lots of pedophiles getting caught all over the world. Let's give it up to the Austrian police for busting a child pornography ring and catching almost 3,000 of the members all over the world. Hopefully that means that a lot of children will be spared their abusive company. Personally, I think we should bring back cutting things off as a legal punishment. What do you want to bet we would see sexual crimes drop drastically? Cut a few people's junk off and suddenly the risk isn't really worth it any more. And if that is what happens on the first offense think about the penalty for a repeat offender. I'm sure most of you think this is approach is too harsh, which is just testimony as to why I will never hold any form of office. I'm too mean, too tough, people would attempt to assassinate me, and amazingly enough I would not back down. I wouldn't back down because I truly feel that anyone who inflicts horror upon another should learn true horror in return. Perhaps if we make them suffer, instead of locking them away some place that is climate controlled and supplied with cable they will be less inclined to repeat their mistake. Campaign slogan - Wickkett for president, lower crime OR ELSE!
The Sig and I sunk to a whole new level of geekiness last night while at Barnes and Noble. (One of the best stores in the world!) When we entered there was a very large eye catching sign that told us we could reserve our copy of the newest, and sadly the last, Harry Potter book. I'm sure dear readers almost all of you have read about Harry's great adventures, the statistics are on my side on this one. I'm also sure that if you have read the other six books then you are either excited about a possible pre-order or you just sat up a little straighter in you chair and I have your full attention. That's right the new Harry Potter, and the release date has been pushed back to July 21st. Pretty messed up, but at least it will be here this year! The Sig and I managed to corner a book jockey while we were there how ever, and accost her for information. Poor girl. I told the Sig that we are are sinking to a nerdy new low. We demand nerdy information and if you do not give it to us we will make fun of you in ways you do not understand until you cry with confusion!
Anyone else making it through the week on the comforting fact that a new season of Lost starts tonight? I don't consider this a low, no, I consider this one of my many addictions. I'm a functioning addict, we'll be alright until that changes.

Crazy Birds
This weekend we took a long drive to Memphis to meet my mother-in-law half way in a little man exchange. He's going with her to Disney World. Lucky little devil. That is all I am going to say about the trip, it was very eventful, as any trip would be when I'm behind the wheel for an incredibly long period of time. However, I can not bring my self to re-live it again.
Top news for me is just a few bits of fun! First and foremost, the eagles have lost their minds! Anyone else noticed the increase of insanity in our feathered friends? Let me explain...
Juneau, Alaska saw a very greedy eagle cause a power outage for 45 minutes! He was carrying a deer head and it weighed him down to the point that he could not clear some power lines. Anyone else feel like this bird kind of had it coming? I mean come on, I could not even eat an entire deer head. What I feel like happened was a gluttonous bird took out power in a place that is so remote that power outage by large endangered bird is even a option. Alaska- beautiful, slight possibility of power loss by bird.
The second crazy bird story for today comes from Australia where a pair of eagles decided to single handidly take back the sky's. Unfortunately for one para glider she was the target of the attack. I know that if I was in any situation where I was thousands of feet in the air and I was attacked by anything I would wet 'um. I encourage you all to go to Reuters and read about it! And let's give it up for the lady who survived this treacherous attacks!
And that's it for the day readers.

The World Says, "F_ck Wickkett!"
I know I have been absent for several days dear readers, and I no one is sorrier for this absence then I. Let me start with a rundown of Wednesday for you.
Wednesday
5:00 am- The alarm clock goes off alerting me to the new day and the need to drag my carcass out of bed and find the energy to go to the gym.
5:10 am- I collapse in bed clutching my head in pain trying to fight the wave of nausea that has swept through my body. With the sickening realization that there will be no gym the alarm clock is reset and I try to sleep away a migraine before I have to go to work.
6:10 am- I manage to get up, my head still hurts but it is tolerable. I hop in the shower and go about my daily routine.
6:30 am- I run out of coffee, and the world screams a collective exclamation of horror.
7:00 am- I go out to my car to find it unexpectedly frozen over. The defrosting time makes it so I will no longer be as early as I would like.
7:15 am- A jack on the road swerves around me running a red honks his horn and flips me off in what I can only assume is a attempt to win the worlds biggest as_hole award. He almost causes a wreck and I still end up directly behind him.
7:20 am- I follow the jack that almost caused a wreck for 10 blocks causing him to look back over his shoulder extremely nervous many times.
7:30 am- A huge pillar of black smoke and many rescue personnel alert me to a very large church burning to the ground.
7:32 am- People try to block me from merging on to the freeway. They do not win. (Nor will they ever)
7:32 1/2 am- I glance over and see a massacred cow in a field.
7:33 am- I am stuck behind a cop that insists on going ten miles under the speed limit, probably just to see if anyone has the gall to pass him.
7:35 am- I have the gall.
7:47 am- A co-worker calls in at the last minute and I now have to cover for them. Which means I get to do the most boring task in the coldest part of the building. This would be a little more understandable if this person did not call in at the last minute every other day, and call in to me. I am not the one to call in to I could give a sh_t less!
8:00 am- I have to break the news to my boss that so-and-so will not be in yet again.
9:30 am- It starts to snow.
10:00 am- It is snowing a lot!
10:40 am- Employees start to run for it.
12:30 pm- My relief comes in and I leave to go and pick up little man before it's too late.
12:45 pm- The Sig looses control on a patch of ice and jacks up the Honda's tire and rim. Fortunately it was no worse.
2:00 pm- I am almost to little man's school. The roads were so bad it took that long!
2:40 pm- Little man and I make it to the grocery store after loosing control of the Dodge in several scary places. If I did not know how to drive in this weather we would have been toast on a specific hill.
3:30 pm- We make it home just as the Sig and Boo Boo are getting ready to come and search for us.
4:00 pm- It's snowing harder.
5:00 pm- I think about the sick time being stolen from my pay check, yet again, as we play Wii Sports and watch the snow fall even harder.
5:45 pm- I make a quiche for dinner.
6:00 pm- I exercise in the house and pull a hamstring.
7:20 pm- The dog disappears in a snowy yard at which point I dive in and rescue her. We both end up cold and wet.
7:30 pm- I except the fact that I will most likely not be able to make it to work in the morning, considering it is STILL snowing...hard.
8:00 pm- The Sig lights the fire, we bathe the boy, and put him to bed.
8:10 pm- Video games, and eventually bed.
I get the feeling I should have just stayed in bed to begin with.
Yesterday little man's school was closed so I stayed home. At least it wasn't as bad as Wednesday!

Enemy Union
I came very close to uniting with the guy in the black truck this morning to take out a mutual enemy in the continual road war I fight every day. A woman managed to cut both of us off this morning and for a split second, we glanced at each other through our windows, both of us had our faces contorted in annoyance, and then we started laughing. War I tell you. He zoomed off and the two of them played a very dangerous game of cat and mouse while I stayed far enough behind to feel reasonably safe. I did however consider speeding up to help the notorious guy in the black truck block her in. I'm proud of myself that I refrained from doing so.
I'm starving today. I don't know why but I have this amazing unsatisfiable hunger going on. I hate that. I know that this isn't a subject that anyone really cares about aside from myself, but you're going to read about it any way. Why? Because I'm the one typing.
Today the highlights of my news reading morning come down to three stories.
1. Child molester gets life in prison. Check the story out on MSN news, this guy deserves to be in prison and raped nightly until the day he dies. Sicko, I'm thrilled that he will no longer be a loose predator.
2. Purse snatching in church thwarted. Who goes around snatching purses in church? That's just wrong. Don't steal, period, let alone from any kind of gathering where people are worshipping what ever they believe in spiritually. Mainly because if you get caught those people will feel the right to act as the hand of what ever deity they believe in and smote your ass. In this case two men tried to make off with plastic bags of purses, and the elderly rose up and beat the tar out of them. Good for the seniors! Beat them down!
3. Mountain lion attack victim is now in critical condition. A California, bay area, hiker was attacked by a female mountain lion last week. The gentleman is in his seventies, and has a very dedicated lovely wife pictured at his side. Over the weekend his condition worsened and he is now in critical care. Everyone who has ever lived in California knows about the mountain lions, when I was little we had one that romped around in our field, but it is easy to forget. It is a grisly reminder of how low on the totem poll we really are. I hope for the best for this gentleman and his family. It's sad news. Hopefully his deity is with him.

Addict
I have several serious addictions. Nothing like black tar heroine, but addictions still. For example if I don't have some form of coffee in the morning lord help anyone that comes in contact with me. As with all addictions the coffee thing started off innocently enough, a cup here, a cup there, but then something happened. I started working mornings in a coffee shop. It went down hill from there. Fast forward a handful of years and you what do you get? A serious problem. Let me run you through a few of the changes.
1. 9 years ago- I would drink any kind of coffee.
Today- I have to have a specialty coffee shipped to my house, express mail, and vacuum sealed for the perfect taste.
2. 9 years ago- I didn't give a thought to the bean coming to me pre-ground.
Today- I actually caught myself scoffing at pre-ground coffee the other day. It's whole beans or nothing!
3. 9 years ago- I would pour some tap water in to the pot and roll with it.
Today- If it doesn't come out of a bottle it doesn't become my coffee.
4. 9 years ago- I had a tiny, sad, cheap coffee maker.
Today- I have a coffee maker that has the IQ of most accountants. Then there are the coffee makers counter parts, the grinder, and the espresso maker.
5. 9 years ago- I kept my coffee in a tin can.
Today- Seriously, vacuum sealed.
All I can say in defense to this addiction is that it could be, and probably will be, worse. I guess the first step to finding help is admitting you have a problem. I wonder if they have meetings for people like me, and if they do what kind of coffee they serve.
Another addiction that at times can be pricey is my constant reading problem. If I don't have a book to read then there is a problem with the world. As a result of this addiction I am waiting on the next book in three different series, had the images of several childhood idols destroyed, and no longer have room left in several closets due to books, I am also currently upset at four authors I have never met (two of which I adore). This is a problem.
I have other addictions, all of which I manage to control fairly well. The video game addiction might very soon become a problem. Since the Wii is just so cool, and there are a few games I think I might need. Notice the use of the word need, yeah so did I. Next week I'm sure I will be writing this from a padded cell far away from any access to my bank account, and you know, as long as they let me have my coffee and a book I'll probably be alright with it.

Lucky and Indonesia
Announcement: I finally got my Wii! That's right! And it is everything I wanted it to be and more. Pure bliss, baby. To all of you still waiting, you have my sympathy, I know how it feels.
My sister has the strangest luck of anyone I have ever known, so in reference to her from now on I will simply call her Lucky. Today I bring you a story from Lucky's life, to amuse and to remind us all that even the simplest task can take a very strange turn when we least expect it.
Enjoy...
Lucky's boyfriend forgot to send off the cable bill and as a result their cable was cut off. Funny term cut off, when it is said it conjures images of a blank screen or a lack of a dial tone, perhaps a inability to read a blog, but it rarely brings to mind a cut cable. Literally they came out to her house and cut her cable. Now if Lucky had failed to pay her cable before I might be a little more understanding of this behavior but as she had not I was just as amazed as she. By the way, when have any of you actually heard of the cable company cutting the line? Sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, right? Well, it gets stranger. Lucky does what I'm sure any of us would do and calls them. The woman who answers the customer service line not only speaks very little English, but she also has such a thick and strange accent that after a few minutes of pure confusion Lucky gives up determined to call back later. Eventually later arrives, her customer service representative on the line on this attempt also has a very thick accent but he at least speaks a little more English. Finally, Lucky asks very annoyed, "Where is it my call is going to exactly?" She glances down at the newspaper on her table while waiting for a reply. The headline on the front page 'Earthquake in Indonesia Kills Four'. The customer service reps response, "Indonesia."
Naturally.
Lucky realizing that these people are most likely more concerned with fresh drinking water, and housing, then her cable tries to contact someone else. This turned in to a strange little excursion all it's own which landed her on the phone with a commercial operator for the cable company, by this time Lucky had lost her patience, and when the gentleman suggested calling the customer representatives she lost her temper.
Lucky- "Do you know where the calls go when you call the customer help line?"
Guy- "Uh, no ma'am."
Lucky- "I thought they would go to some where at least in California, but no! You know where they go? They go to Indonesia!"
Guy- "Indonesia?"
Lucky- "Yeah, that's right, Indonesia! They just had an earthquake in Indonesia that killed four, I don't think they care about my cable right now!!! They're worried about their drinking water!"
Guy- "Ma'am I'm sorry but I can't help you."
Lucky- "Of course!"
After that happy conversation she takes the time to drive down to the cable companies office. Things would have probably gone a whole lot smoother if the woman in front of her had her cable cut off, considering she was months over due and Lucky had just forgotten to send in one payment. Well, by the time she actually reached a person she was ready to throttle him. He raised a eyebrow at her as she went through the whole story, cut cable, forgotten bill, Indonesia, earthquake, drinking water, etc. She paid her bill in full, as was her original intention, but when ever the guy tried to ask her a question she would just respond with, "INDONESIA!" Hehe, her cable gets reconnected tomorrow.
For the rest of us...I know I will not forget to pay a bill for a long time.
