Out My Window

RV Living .

STICKY POST

WELCOME

Time for a change. We sold our large house and moved full time into our RV. Why not? Our kids are all gone. Time for us to travel a little bit. (not that we didn't do enough of that anyway)
Noticing that every morning I wake up to a new view out my window, I thought I should start posting about our travels more. Now all I have to do is find time between our travels to blog about it.

I do like photography. All of my albums are of my own shots except where pointed out.
Most images on my blog are clickable links to the page that is referenced here.
If you have any suggestions, please make comments.


Welcome to Texas, Y'all!
Have a good time.

Perez Hilton Takes Beating for Straight Bashing

Perez is the gay guy that discovered the nuances of Microsoft Paint and started a blog about celebrities. He then started billing himself as a "Gossip Blogger" but all he seems to do is slander everyone that does not make nice with him. His favorite is to post a picture of the celebrity with crude and vulgar text across it. He is also fixated on another sexual perversion in his illustrations. He eludes that the person in the image has just had messy sex. His trade mark is the alterations are very crudely done with white Paint. Please let your imagination run as wild as it likes on this or check out his site if you have the stomach for such things.

He is best know for three things; being a flaming gay, insisting others are gay, and being as obnoxious as he can about being gay.
He wants to proclaim gay rights but is quick to use obscenities to describe anyone that is not of that particular sexual persuasion.

Can you imagine one of his buddies being little child star, Miley Cyrus? If I was her daddy and caught her twitting to this low life pervert, I would rip the number pads off her iPhone.

“You’re a faggot, will.i.am! You’re not a f—ing artist!


So he is busy publicly slurring a well known singer, calling him a faggot, when fist started flying.
One little tap and he runs to his hotel room and gets on his cell phone. To call the police? No. To Tweet about it. He actually ask people on Twitter to send the cops because he was bleeding!

Now the public is beginning to turn against him and say he had it coming. Well, that's not going to stop him from suing. Poor guy has to make money someway. Surely not with talent.

I think a group of gays should get together and bash this guy! He is hiding behind his sexuality to be the biggest asshole since Rush Limbaugh.

Funny thing happened on the way to the beach...

Lenora wanted to say hi to Karen. What better way to spend Father's Day than watching the kids play on the beach? Relax and snap a few shots. But... there seems to be something about a camera that brings out the ego in people. Believe me, cute women in skimpy bathing suits do catch my eye. I know. I have seen it happen. So I really don't know if she was just not that appealing or if I was completely engrossed in watching my granddaughter play, but Lenora had to bring to my attention a girl that had been parading in front of me acting like I should be taking her picture. Sorry, didn't even notice her. When you are behind a 400mm lens, your FOV is pretty limited. Later as I was sitting on a rock snapping some more shots, I lowered my camera to see a woman walking toward me. She walked right up and started, "I notice you are taking a lot of pictures of me." "Sorry, you are mistaken. I haven't made any pictures of you." "Well, that lens has been pointed at us an awfully lot and I bet if I take that roll of film...", I cut her off. "Ma'am, for one thing, this is not a film camera, it is digital and I have NO shots of you. You are welcome to look at them if you wish." I had to stifle the urge to say, "You really just aren't that good looking." She actually sat down and looked through about 40 pictures that I had on my card. Can you believe how vain someone has to be to do something like that?

The only "10" I saw on the beach.



She got up and muttered something about being sorry and went back to her boyfriend. As she walked away (or strutted) I couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her. Parading her body around on the beach like that and no one even wanted to look. I imagined how embarrassed she would be when she got back to her boyfriend - and why wasn't it him that confronted me? You would think that of all the shots I took, I would have at least one of her in the background someplace to show you but, no. Sorry. Not even one of those. UPDATE: Guess what? Seems we have found a picture of the lady. If you look in the background over Lenora's back, you will see her. You can also see me in the distance with the camera in my face.

Right to Carry Challenged by 20/20

, ,

Seems the networks are looking for ratings again.
Some of you may remember when NBC's Dateline reported on General Motors trucks "blowing up" in a wreck. Dateline showed footage of their test. It was later found that they had planted explosives in the trucks. All this to prove the conclusion that the trucks were unsafe.
Now ABC has come up with another test. Taking a hard line against our rights to bear arms, 20/20 claims that an armed citizen would be ineffective against a mass killers armed attack. Not only are they implying that we should not have rights to own firearms, they are claiming that we are too incompetent to protect ourselves.

Here is the set up:
They take college student and teach them how to fire a gun. They take each student and place them in the front-center chair of a simulated class room with other students and a teacher.
At some point a professional police instructor barges into the room and fires once at the teacher then at the front-center student.
If the student is able to get his gun out from his holster and from under his shirt and make a direct kill shot... the student wins.
If the professional gunman can get in both hits whether they are kills or not... mass murderer wins.
Of course there was no training on HOW to carry the weapon. Ill fitting holsters under baggy clothing does not fare well in a showdown.
Even as one student gets a hit, we are told that the shot to the leg was ineffective and the perpetrator was able to deliver a deadly shot to the chest. Sure! if it is just a damn paint gun. Let me take a whack with my .44 and see if he can still get a shot off after a little leg wound.
They really try to pass this off as a real world experiment. If one of the students were armed in this scenario, the armed student would not always be sitting in the front center of the class and the assailant would not know where his target would be. Although the attacker may be skilled, anyone that had experience in carrying a personal protection firearm would have, at some point, practiced and know the best way to have his weapon accessible.
Even after one girl fought it out and hit the intruder in the shoulder, it was pointed out that she came "within inches of hitting her fellow students." No mention that she had just stopped a crazed killer. All of the commentary seemed biased in every test. But then, they were out to "prove" that a professional gunman was no match for an untrained college student.
In April, a CNN poll showed that only 39% of the people surveyed wanted stricter laws - down from 50% in 2000.
And a poll sponsored by no less than ABC news found that 61% favored strong enforcement of existing laws vs 27% who want stricter laws.

Palin vs Letterman

Former veep candidate Palin and her family were the focus of Letterman's "Top Ten" list broadcast Tuesday night. But it was a line in his monologue about Palin's visit to Yankee Stadium with her 14-year-old daughter, Willow, that set off waves of criticism.

One awkward moment for Sarah Palin at the Yankee game, during the seventh inning, her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez


Letterman tried to calm the storm by saying he was making the crack about 18-year-old single mom Bristol Palin - not Willow
Letterman has been getting a lot of millage from the Palins ever since he took on the the Republicans and, to all outward appearances, made it his personal quest to get Obama elected. Of course it is his job to poke fun at anything and everything but it seems he has rode the Palin pony into the ground. Now others are beginning to think twice about his rhetoric.

I told a bad joke. I told a joke that was beyond flawed, and my intent is completely meaningless compared to the perception. And since it was a joke I told, I feel that I need to do the right thing here and apologize for having told that joke. It's not your fault that it was misunderstood, it's my fault that it was misunderstood. So I would like to apologize, especially to the two daughters involved, Bristol and Willow, and also to the governor and her family and everybody else who was outraged by the joke. I'm sorry about it and I'll try to do better in the future.


A Web site called FireDavidLetterman.com is organizing a rally outside Letterman's show.
Polls do show that a lot of people are upset about this but I don't think it will ever go as far as firing him. I do think his reputation has finally been scared by taking things a little too far. He has contended that Palin is fair game for his repeated shots because she let her daughter get pregnant. Yeah, dumb analogy but he is a comedian not politician.
Now he has committed as big a sin as she. All the excuses in the world won't change that he screwed up his facts. He is responsible for advocating child abuse just as much as Palin is responsible for her 17 year old getting tossed but the hockey star. I'm sure Letterman didn't write the joke, I'm sure Palin didn't watch the kid diddle her daughter.
Maybe we can watch Late Night again now without having to endure the Letterman politics. Who does he think he is anyway... Oprah?


Deadbeat Saudi Princess

Princess Maha al-Sudairi, is claiming diplomatic immunity in France after running up unpaid shopping bills of more than $24 million.
She has ignored her furious debtors and locked herself in her £2,500-a-night suite at the George V Hotel, which is owned by her nephew, Prince Al Waleed, in Paris.

We know the family well – they're in Paris a lot. She's not the kind of customer where you ask for a deposit, or to ask to see a piece of identity,

said Giami, who has launched civil proceedings through the Paris courts to seize assets.
Princess Maha, whose husband, Prince Nayef, is interior minister and second-in-line to the Saudi throne, is said to have spent millions on designer clothes, jewels and other luxury products in the French capital over the past year. Her weekly dry cleaning bill alone was said to be £30,000.

In 1995 Princess Maha al-Sudairi was accused of beating a servant in Orange County, Florida, whom she suspected of stealing $200,000 from her.

In 2001, another Saudi royal, Princess Hind al-Fassi, was found guilty in absentia by an Egyptian court of not paying for more than $1m worth of jewellery from a Cairo jewellery shop.

Again, in 2001, Princess Buniah al-Saud, a 41-year-old niece of Saudi Arabia's King Fahd, was charged with beating up her maid and stealing electronic equipment worth around $6,000.

Okay, so Saudi Princesses keep showing up in the news. Looks bad until you consider there are like, over 7,000 of them around. Bound to be a few bad apples in the barrel.


Christians and Muslims - I am efing speechless!

,

My religious beliefs are my own and I know this is not the forum to express them but I was witness tonight to something that left me speechless.
My granddaughter has been attending Vacation Bible School at the local church. Tonight was the night they received their certificates and had a presentation for the parents and family.

At one point they showed a short film about missionary work. A young girl was telling how she was overseas teaching the word of Christ. She told of meeting another young girl. She tells how the young girl had always been obedient to her family. It was told how this young girl always prayed to God everyday. She followed her religious teachings and was happy with her family.
They took this young girl and taught her that the only way she could enter heaven and be happy was to accept Jesus as her savior. She has to be a Christian.
The young girl takes this advice and defies her parents. She defies her religion. Her parents throw her out on the streets. She no longer has a home. None of her family will talk to her.
The missionary goes on to tell how great it was that they helped this young girl find Christ.
The clip ends and the preacher takes the floor and mentions that although it wasn't said, the young girl, of course, was Muslim.

Let me get this straight... an exemplary student, daughter is put on a path to cause her to turn away from her church, causing discord with her family, she is living in the streets, and they are proud of it?

Speechless.

Bashing Gay Bashers

Carrie Prejean: Junior Miss Bryant
Beauty queen revives memories of Florida’s past with orange juice boycott

By DANIELLE TRUSZKOVSKY
MAY. 7, 2009

Seems that negative campaigning reigns on even after the elections are over.
Everyone remembers... whoa... maybe everyone doesn't remember Anita Bryant. She was a singer, pageant queen, Florida OJ spokesperson, and gay basher. During her "save our children from gays" campaign, she was struck in the face with a pie by a gay dude. No one drags out her records and sits around reminiscing about her anymore. In fact, This article is the first time I have heard her mentioned in a coon's age.
Now the name is forever linked with Carrie Prejean.
She was a semi-public figure that happens to NOT believe in gay marriage. Some people don't. I accept that and it really doesn't bother me a whole lot because it would be hypocritical of me to think that others don't have the right to their own opinion.

It is not like she set out to destroy anyone, she was set up. Who cares what a beauty queen thinks about gay marriage? It is a beauty contest people! Kind of shallow by definition, right?
Anyone expecting some profound social manifesto to come rolling from her lips is over reacting a little bit.

Now they are trying to link her with church groups as they are to blame for the social stigma she is suffering. I think we do need the moral compass of these church groups in some cases. They have the right to live their lives on the "straight and narrow". They have the right to be an example to us. They are have the right to marry people of the opposite sex if they like. And by all means, they have the right to express this view point!

If you want to keep this thing alive, ask yourself why Perez Hilton was a judge. He obviously has no taste. So who decided it was a good idea to let this jerk pick the most beautiful woman in the USA? And further more, why would anyone be glad they were chosen by him. I can see him doodling little genitalia on all the contestants now.

And for the record: I think we should have same sex marriages. As a matter of fact, I love the idea of same sex marriage for idiots. Idiots should not propagate.

Daggering Goes Under the Knife

,

Okay, I am not totally isolated from reality, I don't watch Grey's Anatomy so I didn't get the breaking (no pun intended) news, I did know about the dance craze in Jamaica that was so controversial, but I didn't know about fractured penises.

KINGSTON (Jamaica) - A POPULAR dance in Jamaica faces restriction by the government after being blamed for a spate of broken penises, said media reports on Wednesday.


I thought I had run across one of those news parody stories so I had to Google it. OMG! :no:

Jamaica's Broadcasting Commission, which defines daggering as a "colloquial term used in dancehall culture as a reference to hardcore sex or what is popularly referred to as 'dry sex' or the activities of persons engaged in the public simulation of various sexual acts and positions", enforced the ban in February.

'There shall not be transmitted through radio or television or cable services, any recording, live song or music video which promotes the act of 'daggering', or which makes reference to, or is otherwise suggestive of 'daggering',' the Jamaican Broadcasting Commission's official statement said.

Jamaicans are apparently divided over the dance and the subsequent banning of the style - with some musicians saying it restricts free speech - but others support the government ban.

Oh well, isn't a law like that sorta like our seatbelt laws? The government is duty bound to protect us from ourselves.
