Do As I Do and Not As I Say

I Know Better Than You

Last night I was watching a show on HGTV called Selling New York.  I had never seen the show before, but I thought it was interesting from the start because it was about selling high end properties in New York city, and by high end I mean places going for millions and millions of dollars.  One property that was up for sale was an 11 THOUSAND foot condo going for something like 12 million dollars or some fantastic amount like that.  It was an enormous condo that was designed for holding very large soirees which was one of the selling points that were being presented.  It had heated wood floors!  How decadent!  It was a beautiful place by all means, and just amazing to see.   It boasted a unique staircase that was designed my some person whose name isn't really important to me so I do not remember it.

Apparently, the current owners of the home were big wig New York city liberals, that have big parties there all the time.  One major selling point was the picture of Obama standing at the foot of the very unique stair case in the home seemingly going to give a speech or something.  I don't know if it was pre or post election, doesn't matter, I'd guess pre as part of campaigning/fundraising.  Anyway, it doesn't matter these people are big time liberals of some importance to get a guest of Obama's caliber to visit their home. 

I am not opposed to people having wealth or big houses if they can afford it, but I am opposed to the hypocrisy of the causes that the left supports.  It is the same criticism that Al Gore the jet setting liberal owner of enormous mansions received for lecturing the rest of us nobodies on being green.  Umm, hypocrit much?

I'm sorry, but my 1400 square foot home, that's FOURTEEN HUNDRED, not ELEVEN THOUSAND square feet... takes a heck of a lot less energy to heat and light then one of these 11 thousand feet monstrosities these fancy liberals live in.  So, the next time one of these blowhards wants to whinge on about carbon footprints I'm apt to tell I would be happy to stick my carbon footprint where the sun doesn't shine. 

I like to imagine

Reality

I like to imagine...one day...hopefully 50 years at the very least from now when I am dead and gone, my daughter will enjoy reading this blog. Maybe even my great grand children will find something of interest here. Who knows?

I haven't been writing much here for quite some time. Mostly, the reason for my absense, has been because I have been busy playing an online game (Everquest). Hell no it's not Podunktown, on Face Space or whatever the thing is called. Yes, I admit I did make a fake Space Face name so that I could go spy on people I went to high school with. Yes I did. I logged in check out a whole bunch of people's SpaceFaces and moved the hell on with my life. Just like I did when I graduated from High School. I did not look back. I have only passing interest in it otherwise, and just like face piercing's: I Don't Get The Appeal.

This must be the point where I get dropped off at some greasy spoon truck-stop just off of the great information superhighway of life to die with my bottomless cup of coffee and boring old blog. Blogging is so 2004, but I really can't see publicly humiliating myself in any other way. Blogging is real, people spend a lot of time (some of them, I'm not one of the people I speak of) putting their thoughts, concerns and care together on their blogs. Twatter, or SpaceFace, really those are fine. I don't want anyone to feel the need to defend these things at all, I just really don't have much interest in them. They feel too joiny to me.

Actually, I am very glad for those things though, and glad that people enjoy the networking sites. So this is not a slam for that, it really is not meant to be an insult, I'm more poking fun at myself.

I Don't Know

WHY?

I haven't posted in a while, and it seems like all of my formats have changed, and not for the better. BLEH. Well, I'll have to figure out how to use this again.

OH MY GOSH
