Recently I have made several references to my Aunt Sandy here in my blog. In fact, without my nightly online chats with her I would not have "discovered" some of the interesting things I have blogged about. She always finds the kewl stuff to chat about.

Well, last night she had a massive stroke affecting the right side of her brain, and is in very serious condition. We won't know the extent of the damage for a while but apparently the cat-scan does not leave much room for optimism.

The physical effects will be painfully obvious. And it is now time to strengthen her spirit.

You see, last year, after weeks of "acting strange", she was admitted to the hospital. Apparently, her lungs were only working at 14% of capacity. Yes, she was a smoker, but that no longer matters. She was dying. The doctors told us she might live 6 months, if that. Her son moved his family from Maine to Nevada to be there for her. It's been a year since then. She has had a wonderful time getting to know her grand-daughters (I know, she told me). She has had a wonderful time getting to know her daughter-in-law (I know, she told me). But most of all, she got the chance to be "mom" again to her only son, even if she was "like an invalid with an ornery streak" (I know, she told me). She loves her family, and WE LOVE HER (She knows, I told her).

The hell if a stroke is going to take her now!

Please say a prayer tonight for my Auntie, she could use the strengthening.

They want you to think they are peaceful. It's easier to inflict your wrath on people who are unsuspecting. A colleague once told me, "Revenge is best served cold."

They dress nice. They want to appear to be the "everyday" type. It's easier to inflict your wrath on people who are unsuspecting. A colleague once told me, "Keep smiling, make them wonder what you are up to."

They are people. Like you and me, they are people. They want to appear like peaceful pretty people. It's easier to inflict your wrath on people who are unsuspecting. A colleague once told me, "You should alwa.." okay okay, there was no colleague. sheesh.

Hours after the morning attack in Godhra, police were still pulling charred bodies burnt beyond recognition out of the blackened carriage of the Sabarmati Express in western Gujarat state.

Fifty-seven people, mostly women and children, were killed when a trainload of Hindu activists was torched by a suspected Muslim mob in western India Wednesday, authorities said.

Peaceful? My ass. Pretty? Not very. People? Animals.

Things are looking good. It seems Utah is taking a stand against the nuke dump. WOOHOO!

Utah Senate Majority Whip Gene Davis, D-Salt Lake, sponsored the resolution predominantly because of the likelihood that nuclear waste will be temporarily stored on the Skull Valley Goshute Reservation as a result of the Yucca Mountain Project. "The West seems to be targeted the most," Davis said. "We've got a lot of desert land, federal land and reservations, which they think is the best place to store nuclear waste.

It also seems that OTHER STATES might "Just say NO".

Let's hope so. Is that nuclear waste in your pocket or are you just green with envy?

Some people NEED TO LIGHTEN UP!

US comedian Jay Leno has angered South Koreans with a joke that many see as pouring oil on fury over a South Korean skater who was stripped of a gold medal at the Winter Olympics.

Leno said Kim Dong-Sung, who was disqualified after finishing first in the 1,500-meter race, must have kicked a dog in frustration, then eaten it after losing the gold medal to US skater Apolo Anton Ohno.

Kim Jong-Pil, a former prime minister who heads the opposition United Liberal Democrats (ULD), called Leno an "ignorant son-of-a-bitch" for telling the joke about speed skater Kim Dong-Sung on his "Tonight" show.

"What an ignorant son-of-a-bitch he is. He appears to have no consideration for the national feelings of another country," Kim Jong-Pil was quoted as saying by a ULD spokesman.

"It is repulsive to talk about another country in such a foul manner," he said. "It is not right that such a man without any common decency should host a TV program."

He thinks Jay Leno is the ignorant son-of-a-bitch? haha… Hey, Jong-Pil, you know you eat dog. Just admit it, laugh at it (the joke, not the dog), get past it, and move on. Sheesh.

Mr. Leno must be a bit more decent that you are. I don't see you hosting YOUR OWN TV program. haha… Next thing you know Mr. Jong-Pil will claim to be a blonde, Polish, knock knock who takes offense to every joke ever spoken since
someone screwed in the lightbulb. LIGHTEN UP!
