Is this really a Controversy?

OK. So I heard on the news today that the state of Texas has changed the Texas pledge. Well not so much changed it as added some words to it. They've added "One state under God." Is this a big deal to you?

To me, someone who beleives that this nation was founded on Christian beleifes so shouldn't they filter into our everyday lives in some way, shape or form? This is The United States of America. Yes. We say freedom of religion. No we are not telling you that you have to be a Chrisian or worship a God that you don't believe in. We are simply stating what at this point in time 76.5% of our nation is that of a Christian Faith. Therefore it's going to be prodominant.

If Christian American's go to other countries we are expected to speak their language and while there are Christian places of worship in those countries we are not accomodated to the point that all traces of their Nationally recognized religion is wiped from every place where it could possibly offend.

I understand. Not 100% of the people that have a problem with God in our schools and government are from other countries, and most of the time the people that I see protesting are American by birth. But why if you have the right to not have God in your school and government do the other 76.5% of us not have the right to have him there?

No. I am not belittling your beliefes or expecting you to alter them in any way shape or form. I'm simply stating that we've been nice for too long. We're let the protestors go too far in my opinion. If we remove God from everything in our lives is he going to be there when we need him the most?

This is not me asking every person on My Space to comment and tell me how stupid I am or go into a tirade about politics. I hate talking about Religion and Politics. But this ticked me off and I needed to have my say!

Wordless Wednesday - Poor Grayson

Wordless Wednesday!

Pleases link to my Mommy! I really want to live in a real house and not in a turtle. If you link to her she'll link to you!

Halloween!

No. I'm not already preparing for the rapidly approaching holiday. I'm talking about the movie. Yes the one that we thought was officially done. Check out the trailer below and we'll continue below.



Ok. So in George Lucas fashion we're going back to the begining. I personally kind of like the idea of a prequel. It's worked with Star Wars and the Hannibal series. WHy can't it work with this?

I am excited to see this one. It looks like one I'm really going to enjoy not to mention making me want to see all the other Halloween movies again.

Rob Zombie wrote and directed this particular rendition and in typical Rob Zombie fashion it's appropriately dark. This movie is going to really give those with weak consitutions out there a run for their money.

This Halloween Movie, is going to be even better then the rest because it goes back to the beginning. It really lets you see what's behind all the other movies and just might bring a little perspective.

I don't actually have a favorite scary movie but I'm hoping to fill that role. Maybe this will be the movie to do just that.

Halloween opens in theatres August 31st! Are you ready?

Update Time!

I started a new position on Monday! It's a temp job that will last for at least 8 weeks but there's already talk of the possibility of perm. I'm excited. I really like this company and it's laid back style. There's a gym on the premisis so I can workout as often as I want. I'm happy to report that despite offering free fountain cokes I haven't not partaken. I'm sticking to my regimine of water with fiber and eating healthy foods. I have my nouriche yogurt shake for breakfast, and a Lean Cuisine for lunch! Whoo! And strangely enough I rarely need a snack! I haven't had one yet! Whoo! I started school on Monday as well. That's a little hard to work into the schedule but I'm figuring it out! I can't wait for the work to pay off.

Hope that everyone is well. I hope to talk to everyone soon.

Help Help Help!

I love my Bug dearly. I wouldn't trade him for anything in the world. But I am ready to yank his ears off of his little head. He WILL NOT listen to one thing that I say. he looks me right in the face while I am talking to him and when I ask him, "Did you hear what I said?" he looks at me and says yes. So then I ask, "What did I say?" to which his reply is, "I don't know."

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

He's not going to sleep right now for instance. He's been popped, had bee bear taken away, told he can't play outside tomorrow. Does this phase him? NO! I've tried time out. he sits over there and talks and plays and watches tv. He whines while he's there so I know he doesn't like it but what's the point if he's having a perfectly good time playing with the wall?

Any suggestions?
