Wednesday's Digressions

• I'm responsible for some gold on another blog which always gets favorable comments- well mostly but, I can't bring myself to own up to any of them so I post anonymously.




• Now, if I did put my ID with them I would get accused of plagiarizing.




• I can never seem to win- for losing.



• People who lived near the major who committed the murders on Fort Hood are saying he was mistreated for his faith. After duty hours he would change into clothes associated with Afghan men and attend prayer at his Mosque. I find this a bit odd since he was born in the US and his ancestry is Palestinian. His appearance reportedly led to verbal taunting and vandalizing of his property. Another thought: what would happen to me if I wore a clown suit in some backwater neighborhood in Lebanon? or, short, tight cut off jeans and a string tank top? His actions while working in DC have been properly referred to as, "making himself a lightning rod for trouble."



• Would you buy a one ounce gold coin for 50.00 dollars? Would you accept it if someone gave it to you?



• 2012 looks sadly- sucky. I'll assuredly catch it on DVD though.



• The pond at the end of the road looks spooky at night and the wetlands in the bottom behind it even worse. I'm going to take my oldest son down there and dare him to walk through the wetlands with me some night.



• Yes, I dare my child to do things.
