What if vengeance was yours???

I was flipping through the channels on cable the other night and ran across this movie called  "The Hit List".  Have you seen it? It came out last year and stars Cuba Gooding, Jr. and Cole Hauser. It's about a down-on-his-luck guy who gets a weird proposition while drinking his cares away in a bar. Now, our guy is by his own admission a human punching bag. He gets knocked around at work, at home by his wife and best friend and some shifty-sounding guy who does a tap dance on his face.

Later, our guy meets a new "best friend" who asks him to make a hit list. Now, it's a hypothetical list, right? And as it turns out, is quite cathartic and therapeutic. Unfortunately for our guy, his new "best friend" is the real deal Holyfield!  Can you imagine? Suppose the people you hate - say  the top five - start dropping like flies? Sure you were mad at these fools but you didn't want them really dead!!! To make matters worse, you cant tell anyone what you think is happening because then it starts to look like you planned these killings. It is YOUR hit list. 

So, what do you do? The new "best friend" is not only crazy but a professional hit man. He could kill you anytime... anywhere... and you'd never see it coming. What do you do? Who do you tell? How do you stop a crazed hit man with an "I never fail" attitude??! Watch "The Hit List" and find out.

Work It

I found an old photo of me from many moons ago. I'm talking acid washed jeans, big glasses, big hair - the whole 9 yards. It's just a casual shot - me and a friend chilling on the couch (uh, no I don't plan to post it LOL) - but it got me thinking about yester-year or days of old (sheesh, that sounds kinda knightly)...You know, those days when your biggest worries included "are the quarter pounder combos on sale this week? Is HE going to ask me out? For Prom??" (HE didn't but I went to prom anyway and had a BLAST!) This is also about the time I got my first taste of adulthood - A JOB! A real one! Like actually doing things for someone other than my parents and grandparents in order to maintain my allowance (yes, I was one of those kids). Employee ID, Clock-In/Out, an actual check - shoot couldn't tell me nothing. I was a working WOMAN after all (okay so a working TEEN but still, LOL)  Guess where I worked? No, go ahead I'll wait... Time's u...

You Don't Have To be so mean

Someone asked me the other day " hey, don't you ever get tired of being so happy and positive all the time? How can you be so NICE?" I was thrown! Ok maybe not completely since I've heard a little about this before. "You always have a smile on your face...you're so happy...you're so NICE to EVERYBODY...I really like talking to you...thank you for being so kind...-it's rare" Even though I've heard these comments before, it still surprises me a little. Not that people think I'm nice but that so many people experience the opposite - often enough that they are shocked enough to comment. Makes you, ok me, wonder why are so many people not nice? Just plain old mean? How do they get that way? Can't make me believe that people are born that way...hmm course i have a seen pictures of newborn babies with some pretty mean mugs. Looking like they've been here before and experienced all the atrocities of life ALREADY!  But really - why?  ...

Very Superstitious

Do you think black cats portend bad tidings? Are you triskaidekaphobic (fear of the number 13)? Growing up, I used to hear all sorts of things that were supposedly bad luck or could bring on something that you'd rather not, well, bring on. There was the one about walking under a ladder...or how many of you remember that little ditty about stepping on a crack and breaking your Mama's back? Yeah? I thought you might LOL  I asked a few people about any superstitions that they may have heard/been told. Not all of them are omens of doom and gloom. Some are kinda funny and some you might even want to have happen. Like this first one: If palm of your left hand is itching, you're going to receive some money.       Okay, that's a superstition that I can deal with. Now don't go rubbing your left hand on poison ivy to make your palm itchy to get money. The only thing you're going to do is end up with itchy palms that will spread and have you bathing in oatmeal and ch...
