I don't write here very often because I don't believe I have that much to say. And only very few make comments. That being said, I'm going to ramble a bit this morning.
I don't watch national news because I don't believe it is news but rather opinion or, in the alternative, sensationalized. The news stations spew what they have been fed whether true or totally exaggerated and skewed to whichever side that particular station leans. It used to be that reporters checked stories for truth and fact before publishing or airing. Nowadays, not so much.
I am all for limited numbers being allowed into this country. As for those who enter unlawfully, send them home. Maybe then those who are on the dole will finally get off the collective asses and go to work. Get their hands dirty, take home a pay check or, in the least, get off the streets....although some of those who hold up the signs begging for money take in thousands a year (and don't pay taxes). The population of this country is getting too large. Pretty soon there will be no green space and we'll be taking pills for nutrition instead of food. Remember the movie Soylent Green?
And maybe we should send those Americans who protest against the wall and limited immigration to try to sneak into Mexico and see what happens.
As for those actors and actresses who say they're going to leave if so and so is elected, why haven't they left? And why do they think their opinions are so important? Hell, these days I don't even know who they are. The really great ones were in the past and many served this country during the wars. They knew what patriotism is. Take the male actors of today and put them through basic training and they'll cry like babies and want their mommies.
I have had jobs where I had to clean up after others (believe me, you learn a lot about people cleaning hotel/motel rooms). Happily, I don't have to but would if I had to. That being said, would you?
Okay, enough. Y'all have a good day and remember.....work may be a four-letter word but so is wage.

I have all but given up on trying to understand what counts as news today. Like you, I have had many jobs that kept me going. Not all were nice or comfortable, but were necessary at the time. I have a bad habit of liking to eat every day, so not working was not an option.
Hang in there, my friend. I'll be around to read when you post...OK?
Thanks, HJ. Glad you came by.
Me, too,Momlady. And I've missed your "rambling and rants" and can't agree with you more on all your points. Especially the golden Hollywood set. Since when do they have an original thought anyway? Don't they get paid a boucoup lot of money for speaking someone else's words? Guess they make so much they don't have to consider if their yard and pool are being cleaned by illegals. I try to check before I hire anyone, especially those with crews, like roofers. Don't have a pool, and hubby cuts the grass, but I'm still trying to keep it American when I can.
Glad to hear from you again ~
Thanks, Texasann, Glad you enjoy my rants.
Oh my... you're definitely a girl after my own heart! We have a TV, but it's more for filling that hole in the entertainment unit nowadays. We do watch the occasional DVD, but other thatn that, I simply can't be bothered... because 99% of what's being crammed down out throats is pure doo-doo.
