For those of you that haven’t been to the site Dont Hate Him Girl , you should really go. But only listen to the advice if you are a’ clueless, b’ in such dire need of self-esteem you think it is ok to perform in a scat video, or c’ just divorced for the second time and already oogling the pool boy.

Case in point, here is the quote from the bottom of the front page today:

“Some pray to marry the man they love, my prayer will somewhat vary: I humbly pray to Heaven above that I love the man I marry.
~ by Rose Stokes ~”

Of course, some of us know how this should really read:

“Some pray to marry the man they love, my prayer will somewhat vary: I humbly pray I never say “I do” to anyone other than the one I love, otherwise I pray that I am sterile so as not to add to the already overpopulated planet of at least 300 million morons”.

I lost count on the moron scale on this one. Lets just say we are at 295M and counting…

          

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us, it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

-Nelson Mandela

          

Kids are like dogs… just less hair. - Ryan

This word came up during a computer training class at work I endured today. It wasn\’t too horrible, but I must say I was quite concerned when the class started out with, \”This is your desktop. These pictures are icons. This is the start menu. This is how you turn off your computer.\” I\’m sorry but if you don\’t already know these things, you don\’t need to be working here.
