Why do couples insist on displaying their utter hatred for one another in public? I’m in the line at a store today, and a husband asks his wife a simple question, she yells out the answer while sending a text on the phone,never looking his way. I understand how being in a long term reltionship gives one some latitude in common curtosy, but I see and hear things that could be classified as nothing less than pure destain for one another. If this is you, GET OUT! Yes, divorce is expensive, but wouldn’t you like a bit of your dignity back? Put your hand down your pants. Feel those? Those are the stones that you used to display. Are they still there? Or have they went the way of your dignity

Some peoples kids!

Remember the days when you would say “some peoples kids”, and be referring to only a few of the troublemakers or obviously mislead youth? Today, it seems I say that with more and more often. Where are the parents? Who are the parents? Trust me, I understand there are still good children out there! But the sense of entitlement of children today is becoming scarier by the minute. The cell phones, IPODs, laptops, 360′s, WII, PS3, free cars when the reach driving age and whatever else your perfect little monster demands as a simple article that everyone else has. A friend of mine told me that one day as she was explaining that she really couldn’t afford the item he wanted, his response was “but you can just go to the ATM mom”! There seems t be no sense of financial reality for the youth of today. They have a hard time dealing with the concept of working for money and what in means to contribute as a part of the economy as anything but a consumer.

So, how will they continue to consume without producing?

Just Give me the Damn Savings!

Sick if Savings Cards

There was an episode of Seinfeld, where Castanza was having back problems, he came to learn that his back problem was from his abnormally thick wallet, I myself have been suffering from “thick wallet syndrome” but it’s sure as hell is not full of money, it’s full of “Savings Cards”!! Almost every place I shop, before the business transaction, I am asked “do you have a super savings card?” NO ?!?!? “Would you like to sign up for one?” … NO !! Best Buy, CVS, Walgreen’s, Snyder Drug, Guitar Center, Game Stop, Cub, Rainbow, Petco, Barnes & Noble, Border’s, SA, and that’s just off the top of my head. That’s 12 cards at an average thickness of .030 each x 12 = .360 That almost 3/8 of an inch of extra girth in my wallet. Most places can just take your phone # and find the account info, great!, now I have to remember my own phone number too?!?!?, Thanks for the homework Best Buy! I’m not going to drive accross town to go to cub just because I have a savings card for them and not Rainbow, stop making us jump through hoops, and just save us the money, so I can have my wallet back. Well I must be going to the chiropracter to fix my out of allinement spine now, good thing I have a chiropratic savings card so I can get that 2% disscount! Stop trying to make us feel like a valued customer with these preferred member cards and just give us the truth! You’ve found another promotional tool that not only suckers the lemmings back to your establishment for the discount they should be afforded to begin with. You are not interested in giving something back to your customers, but more so with finding a way to lead the sheep back. Keep your damn savings club and give me the dignity of a fair deal the first time!
