Obnoxious Behavior

The obnoxious followers struck again last night in Delmar at a Town Hall meeting given by Paul Tonko. The meeting was supposed to be a informative meeting about the proposed health care legislation.

You know, it's amazing how we try to teach our children to be polite and to not be rude. We teach them to listen and to not interrupt when other people are speaking. I’m sure a lot people have been annoyed at their kids from time to time and have called them “obnoxious”. If we get a call from a teacher complaining that our children are yelling out and disrupting class, hopefully we sit down with them and warn them of the consequences of continuing this behavior.

For all the people out there who like to interrupt these Town Hall meetings with “boos” and jeers. For all the people out there who like to act like children and scream and have temper tantrums in the middle of a meeting…Guess what, you are all obnoxious and need to go back to school to learn how to act like an adult.

I understand that people do not agree with Obama’s plan, but if you want to protest, then set up a rally. Don’t disrupt information meetings. There are plent of other forums for screaming your opinions (I do it on this blog all the time). People are there to get information and you are preventing them from getting it. If you have a question or would like to express your opinion (for or against health care), fine, say it or ask it...you don't have to scream it.

Maine 2009

A few weeks ago we took a quick trip up to York Beach, Maine. The weather was gorgeous, so we spent every day on the beach. Thursday night, we went to one of our favorite restaurants, Fox's Lobster House. Friday, the Goldenrod for dinner and then down to Portsmouth, NH's Prescott Park to see the play "Greese" with Mom, Dad and the Sgambelluri's. Saturday, it was dinner at Mom & Dad's camper to celebrate Erin's birthday (I can't believe my little niece is 12). On Sunday we took a quick trip to the beach to feed the seagulls and then back home.

Another great trip to one of our favorite places to visit.

Do Not Cave to Salesmen

OK, plain and simple marketing is evil. Can you imagine how much more money we would have in our pocket if we didn't have marketers. The Times Useless ran a article today about the useless accessories kids can buy for their lockers. WHAT??? How about doing what I did when I was in school...clipping some picture out of magazine and taping it to locker. It's simple and free.

MMMMMMMMMM....FRIES

Chris, Charlotte, Maeve and I went to Five Guys for the first time tonight. After 38 years of being on this earth, I have found the best fries in the world. Hands down, Five Guys have the best. And yes, they are better then Fair Fries. You go into the place, and they have bags and bags of potatoes stacked around the restaurant and a white board that states where the potatoes that were used today were grown. They claim that all fries are fresh cut daily and fried in peanut oil. I believe them. And their burgers are great too.

I think I found the restaurant I want to go to on my birthday.

Wimpy Response

I remember all to well the morning after Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland was bombed out of the sky and killed 270 people. I was a Junior in high school and the news hit our school especially hard because one of the victims was an alumni.

13 years after the attack, justice was finally served and Abdelbeset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi was convicted of placing the bomb on the plane. Families of the victims had some sort of closure. Megrahi was sentenced to life in prision.

But then Megrahi gets prostate cancer, declared terminally ill and was freed from prison in Scotland, with Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill citing compassionate grounds for the release and saying al Megrahi was "going home to die."

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! He didn't give a damn about the 270 people that he killed, and yet Scottish officials are giving him compassion? This guy deserve to rot in prison. He does not deserve to be surrounded by his family. He deserves to die alone in a cold, bare jail cell. The 270 victims weren't able to die with dignity so why should he.

And finally, what the hell kind of response was that from President Obama. A wimpy response is what I call it. The president should have been screaming to the Scotts from the White House roof top that this bum should not be released. He should have put some serious pressure on British Authorities, but he did not!!! Although he said the release was a "Mistake", his response seamed "laid back" and not very strong. I found it very disappointing.

Saviors

All of these bums complained back in January how people were treating President Obama as a Savior...like he was going to save the world. Now these same clueless 7 are lying to their audiences and encouraging them to disrupt Town Hall meetings. And people, in masses, are doing exactly what they are told and disrupting Town Hall Meetings. This sounds saviorish to me. So shouldn't the clueless 7 be complaining about themselves right about now.

Security Threat

So, in this country, you can cary a gun to a Town Hall meeting where the special guest is President Barrack Obama. But in 2004 if you had gone to a Bush campaign rally at a public school wearing a Kerry-Edwards button and a T-shirt with the words"No More War.", you were "given" a pair of handcuffs and a strip search at the county jail.

Yep...in this country, Guns are ok...but a harmless piece of the cloth is a security threat.

Locking Down Picasa

I guess this story of the mother her found her son up for adoption on Craigslist really bothered up last week.

So, we locked down our Picasa Album so only people I invite can view it. You now have to have a free g-mail (e-mail) account to view our family photos. For those of you that already have a g-mail account, I have given you access rights. If you don't have a free gmail (e-mail) account and would like to view my photos, please click here to establish an account and then send me your gmail address. I will then add you to the access list.

Maybe we are being a little over cautious about this, but I don't want some nut job geting his/her hands on pictures of the girls.
