This 'n That

He's Calling The Loch Ness Monster's Pager

Today turned out beautiful and sunny, it's supposed to be like this all week through Saturday.

Tonight is the last episode of "Last Tango in Halifax" on PBS. I've really enjoyed it, but haven't found a single other person who has been watching it to swap stories with.

I'm excited, I was researching a little, and there will be a new season of "Doc Martin". It looks like it already aired in the U.K. so who knows how long it will take to reach us on this side of the pond.

A new season of "Republic of Doyle" started two weeks ago on CBC, so I'm happy. For the most part I only watch TV when there is something on I specifically want to watch, and I'm trying to be productive in the evenings, but it is harder for me when it's pitch black by 7 pm. I'm close to finishing the dress I started sewing a month ago, and not sure what I will work on next, but I want to keep the momentum going.....

Government - Why Does It Have to Be More Hate Than Love?

So this was on Fail Blog yesterday, I suppose this would be funny if Stephen Colbert was saying it with a straight face. Not so much with this guy. Who in the world elects idiots like this to an energy committee?

And the shutdown continues.......

Government Shut Down - Part II

I couldn't resist this one tonight ☺

Malala Yousafzai in Parade Magazine

Malala Yousafzai

The cover story in today's Parade magazine was about Malala Yousafzai; the girl from Pakistan that was targeted and shot by the Taliban a year ago. She is a remarkable young woman, and an inspiration to young and old alike for her determination and generosity of spirit.

Government Shutdown

My favorite memes so far this week poking fun at the federal government shutdown. The whole thing is so ridiculous. 

The most ridiculous moment of the week for me, was when the Congressman from somewhere back east was caught on film chastising a park ranger at one of the monuments in Washington D.C. and telling her she should be ashamed of herself for not allowing the public in. I could not flipping believe it. As if she had anything at all to do with the park being closed, and here she was being ridiculed by someone who directly had something to do with it.
