In recent days, there have been a number of things that have caught my attention and made me mad.
1. Mel Gibson. Can someone explain to me how alcoholism and anti-Semitism are related? Isn't that like saying I have to kick the booze because I don't like sugar-snap peas? Please spare, us, Mel. Being a drunk doesn't make you a hateful bigot. Some people get happy and feel the love when they are plastered. In essence, your true self comes out, good or bad, while three sheets to the wind. It's why I have often been referred to affectionately as a "slutty" drunk. I tend to feel the love perhaps a bit too passionately, and verbally share my feelings towards those I love. But Mel really needs to shut up with the "I have a problem with the drink therefore I hate Jews" excuse.
2. Hard-asses. I personally happen to be going through a pretty bad time right now. People who should know better are taking sides without asking for full disclosure from both parties. May I offer some advice? When two people you know and love are going through a difficult time, and those two people you know and love are notoriously interesting and multi-faceted characters, hear them out. Chances are there's more to the story than you know.
3. Paris Hilton. Can she please, please go away? How come it was OK when she dropped the N-bomb and it came out she didn't like black people, but when Mel reveals himself as Jew-hater, he's finished. If Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle were the Kings of Hollywood, would Paris be finished, finally?? And snorting her blow and banging her billionaire himbos in obscurity? When will those 15 minutes end?
4. People who get their tits tied up in a knot over a woman discreetly breastfeeding in a public place. Please, people, get over your tit obsession. They're not for you to get aroused by, but to feed the children. As long as no one's whipping it out and bouncing it around while shrieking: WOOHOO in a restaurant, what is the harm? And how come it's OK that goes on every day in Hooters?

another thing that's annoying me ...
THAT NOT A SINGLE PERSON COMMENTED ON THIS POST!!!
The heat wave has created havoc with my brain waves but I hear you loud and clear.
1. Who's Gel Mibson that we should be paying attention to his indiotic spew. Maybe he's an idiot savant.
2. Hardasses believe they've got all the answers.
3. Poor Paris Hilton, she's named after a Hotel in France.
4. These same people are probably upset by National Geographic's portrayal of topless African women.
Rock on Jacy!
That's because it just came up on bloglines (along with 9 others). I've been checking every day.
When I was a drinking person, things came out of my mouth that I believed but was much too inhibited to ever say while sober. I was quite often hateful and worse yet didn't remember what I said and couldn't understand why people were upset.
So it may be with Mr. Gibson.
Breast feeding - of course you're right.
I'll have to go back and look at #'s 2 and 3. My short term memory seems to have vanished between here and there.
2 & 3
Agreed. I'm sorry you're having problems and I wish you well.
Paris Hilton - not worth anyone's time and energy.
That's because you said it all, Jacy!
