Isn't this a little hypocritical??

Johanna Krupa did a photo shoot for PETA which has a history of nude celebrities saying they'd rather go nude than wear fur.In fact Krupa has posed for those as well. While Krupa's new ad doesn't say that, it strikes me as odd that she has a crucifix strategically placed to hide the major nudity. She has a halo and angel wings. So did the bird that gave up those feathers live through the experience?

Here's the ad, but it's not safe for work:

Not EVERY person is a stupid person..

If they were we wouldn't have moments like this:

So hot.

Fear and Loathing in the Briar Patch...

I grew up a shy awkward girl. I've mentioned the school I went to was more sports oriented and my talents fell into an academic category. I had the best friends in the world, but I felt so average. I really never did, or do now, excel at anything. I've never had much self-esteem and I hated high school. I hated the town I went to school in and though I could never really express it, I hated myself. As I got older, especially after I had kids, I became more outgoing and outspoken. Actually downright blunt, too blunt for some people. I hated that stupid girl from that small town for not having the confidence I had developed later. I was ashamed. I was also determined to make a different life for my kids. They were and are my life. I threw myself into becoming the mom with the coolest treats for their preschool. So cool that the teacher finally let me do all the holiday treats. I volunteered in their classes through elementary school, I joined the PTA, I served as treasurer for 2 years and I can't balance my own checkbook! I did this so I could choose the best teachers for them. They tested off the chart (12th grade+)in the Star Testing before they left elementary school. I taught them to be kind and polite to the best of my abilities. I also managed to teach them to love themselves. YEARS of it and it's so easily swept away.

It turns out that mean girls exist everywhere. Even right next door. At church. They have stayed at your house. You might even be the reason they can read. And they can sweep away YEARS of dedication. I didn't help my daughter. In fact, it may be all because of me.

And I have no idea how to fix it. I just make it worse. I wish they has someone else for a mother. It seems I've done everything wrong.

But what did they SAY??

Variations on Martin Niemoller's famous quote but all make the point that if you stand idly by, you're no less guilty. In fact, to those who have a brighter future because our paths have crossed, you are the worst offenders of all...

First they came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me.

~ Rev. Martin Niemoller, 1945

Oddly this parallels ANOTHER situation I've had to deal with recently. A difficult decision I had to make that cost me dearly. It would have been easier to stay silent, but for the person I spoke up for... I hope that it will make a difference. A BIG difference.

Does anyone speak Becklish?

Because he's never going to understand the words "fact checking."


The country's greatest resource is our future. Because honestly they will be our new government. You know "drill baby drill" our "mavericks" or "hope for change." This girl is an intern with the Michigan Republican Party. She's 17 not 13. Very politically active and that is admirable. Our youth need to learn moderation in politics on both sides because it's our only hope. She's clueless and has not learned both sides of the fence to make an educated decision when she votes (less than a year). Choose your inspiration wisely. And above all, know your facts.

I can't remember ever feeling hate..

But I hate right now. It's really scary.

I just saw New Moon..

Yes, I am a renaissance woman, that's why you keep coming back!!☺
Here's my critique:
They need to scrap the first movie and have this director remake it. This movie was WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY better than the book. Suddenly all the Team Edward peoples are feeling Team Jacob. I realize that Robert Pattinson is playing a vampire and can't change the fact that next to Taylor Lautner who put on 35+ pounds of muscle he looks really bad. But he COULD wax the sporadic chest hair. Loved the movie and will be back before the week is out!

BTW I'm Team Edward but Bella doesn't deserve either of them. I dislike her character and the actress who plays her. The casting is only half good but the actors were better under this director and Dakota Fanning was a stroke of genius.

Also on a personal note, they had us cheer for Team Edward vs. Team Jacob. The winner got a tee-shirt. Some (old as me) chick won it but she stood up. I think if I had known that a spectacle was necessary I would have won it for my daughter.

Fun night with my girlie and my sister!☺
