Gold Digger

This is so great. I’ve got some great topics to write about, now I just need the time to write about them, so let’s get started.

I usually listen to a morning show on the radio every morning. Yesterday the DJ’s had women come on to have the jewelry appraised. Five women went on. The first two that went had been given jewelry for Valentines Day and it was real and worth a little more than they had thought it was. The third also was given something for Valentines Day, but hers was fake and she had been told it was real. I could probably write another blog on the fourth women. Hers was about her engagement ring. According to her they had mutually decided to hold off on the wedding, but were still seeing each other. Her former fiancé had told her that the ring was $10,000.00 and that if she gave him $1,000.00 she could keep it. It was fake and she was hurt and if I remember correctly crying. Anyway I might blog on her later. However, this blog is about the 5th lady.
This lady comes on the air saying that she loves her man and they are so in love. That she is sorry for the other two ladies with fake jewelry, but she knows hers is real. It is supposed to be a silver necklace with diamonds. She says that her boyfriend gave it to her and told her that his grandmother had given it to him and that he was supposed to give it to the women that he could see himself marrying. He told her that it was real valuable to him and not to wear it often, but to keep it close to her heart.
The necklace was appraised and turned out to be fake. I believe the appraiser said costume jewelry fake. Girl number 5 was livid. How could her boyfriend do this to her? Says “(insert boyfriends name) if you listen you’re in trouble.
The DJ’s, which are two guys and a woman, are sticking up for this guy. Saying that according to her he didn’t tell her that it was worth a lot of money, and Girl # 5 even confirmed that he didn’t say that it was worth a lot of money. Girl # 5 goes on to say that he said it was valuable and that she didn’t know about his family, but in her family value meant dollars.
At this point I was pretty shocked. One of the big reasons that I left CA was to get away from the Gold Diggers and come some place with good hearted women. Oklahoma let me tell you, Girl # 5 is not painting a pretty picture for “ya’ll”.
So today she calls back in and misleads the DJ’s into thinking that they had talked about it and convinces them to call him up and put him on the air. He comes on and she railroads this poor guy. He tells her that it was sentimental, that it was a family heirloom that he was supposed to give it to the woman that he was going to marry. Basically, he’s proposing to her on air. She just keeps going on about how it’s fake and worthless. The DJ’s then step in and say didn’t you just hear what was said. The girl said that she did and was still going on about how it was fake. The DJ’s then asked the guy what he thought and he said that his heart was breaking, and that he was losing his love for her each time she spoke. The girl quips that it’s ok because it must not have been real love then. The DJ’s then apologize to the guy saying that they were under the impression that they had already talked about this. The guy said that was ok and the DJ’s say that they aren’t going to let them break up on their show and they should go talk it over.
The DJ that is known for being a little crass starts warning the guy off and tells her to go to a popular clubbing area and that he’ll find three girls just like her in an hour. Understandably the guy is hurt and lashes out a little, but that even had more class than this girl. He says that he’s through with her and that she is just a gold digger and would be happy to give her number to any guy that would like a gold digger. She says ok, that it didn’t matter because she was single now anyway. This guy and the DJ’s and I are in total shock. The DJ’s ask her if she is serious and she says yes. The phones light up and the producers say that it’s a bunch of guys calling for her number the DJ’s tell her and she says to give it to them. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. The DJ’s asked if she would give the necklace back and she said yes that it wasn’t worth anything anyway.
Man, I’m still in a little bit of shock over this. I have petty for the girl and hope the guy will move on. Personally I think the radio station should try to set this guy up with some classy women that will appreciate who he is. I’m not trying to sound venomous toward women. It’s happened to me before too. I’m a bit biased about this sort of thing. Maybe I’m a romantic, but what ever happened to the couple that the girl cuts her beautiful long hair to buy her husband a chain for his pocket watch and the husband that sold his pocket watch to buy his wife the decorative combs for her hair? That is the love that I’m searching for. Maybe I’m being foolish. It sounds like this guy would have sold his watch for her. I like to think I would sell my watch as well. What do you think ladies? Would you cut and sell your hair? Are there any of you left out there? Let me know what you think ladies and gentlemen.

Nothing new to report.

Until next time

What to say about Valentines Day

Well here it goes...I've only done something twice on Valentines Day. The first time was with at the time an exgirlfriend who hadn't hooked up with anyone yet, so we decided to spend it together. We had a good time, but then the next day it was splitsville again. The second time was with a girl that I really liked, but all said and done she just wanted to be friends. I've been single for every other Valentines Day. I'm not really sure what to think about that.
On another note I have always wondered about the possible implications that Valentines Day and Venerial Disease have the same initials. Anyway, I saw on the news today that someone in their infinite wisdom has also declared this day as: "Singles Awarness Day". First let me tell you anyone who is single is already aware of it. I don't really think that we need a day to remind us of that fact. Personally I think that someone is trying to market Valentines Day to single people by putting another name on it.
I was considering possible options for tonight. Not who to spend it with, but what to do. You can't ask a who on a day like to day without imposing serious implication as to your interest in them. Even if you aren't they will still think you are. If they say "Yes" you have sneaking suspictions of them. If they say "No" you know that they have those same suspicions about you. All of this considered I decided that bars where out. Resteraunts too because you will just be flooded with happy couples. Which pretty much leaves staying in.
I think I would enjoy and loathe this day just as much even if I was with someone. Probably more so now. Right now I loath not being with someone and getting obligatory Valentines Day sex. I enjoy not having to buy obligatory Valentines Day gifts and paying for dinner. However, I think I would gladly make the trade.

Family Circus:
Well, bugs birthday is coming up and so is Natties. It's going to be good times. Bug is easy to buy for, but what the heck do I get for a 1 year old girl. I suppose Barbies are out of the question.

Why the way mom did it was better reason #2:
So last week I was violently ill. It was either the flu or food poisening. Needless to say one morning I woke up with my head on the rim of the toilet bowl and the day after sprawled on the bathroom floor. Let me just say thank God mom made me clean the bathroom her way when I was younger. I will admit that when I moved out I went on strike so believe I know what a dirty bathroom is, but even my dirty bathroom never held a candle to the nastyness of bathrooms that I've seen in clubs, bars, or fairs. Anyway when I woke up on the toilet bowl I was happy that my mother had taught me to wash the entire toilet and then do the toilet bowl with bleach. Thanks mom.

Sadies Corner:
Yesterday Jesse took me to the lake again. First I ran all around. Then Jesse took me swimming. I didn't swim that long because the water was very cold, but to warm me up Jesse taught me how to jump over a cable in a fence. Then we played more fetch. Then we went home and I got brushed. I love to get brushed it's my favorite.
Woof for now,
Sadie

Anyway there is more to come, but it's bedtime for me now.

OMG there is nudity in that?

One of my favorite movies of all times is Clash Of The Titans. I don't remember how old I was, but the first time that I saw it was with my dad. I had to have been under ten and it was on tv. Every other time I've watched it was usually with my dad and it was on tv. The other day I was in Wal Mart and there it was. Clash Of The Titans on dvd in wide screen copywrite 1981 rated PG. Woooo hooo...so I bought it. Came home put it in the dvd player and started watching it. OMG there is nudity in it. I was surprised, I'd never seen it in that movie before, then it occurred to me that I had only ever watched it on tv. Just so you know there are three nude shots: First of a womans breasts as she pulls her child up to breast feed, then of a womans and little boys butt as they walk down the beach hand in hand mother and child. This was all to show our hero growing up. At the end of the movie is shows our hero's betroved getting out of the bath before she is sacraficed. That showed partial side of breast and her butt. All the nudity was tastefull...no gratuitous sex scenes as a matter of fact there were no sex scenes at all. I was primarily shocked because I didn't know that they even existed in the movie. Here is the question that I now pose. Less than 30 years ago it the breast and butt of two adult females and the butt of a young boy shown in a movie was PG. Watch Stripes, or Police Academy both movies in the same era rated R showing full frontal nudity commonly in shower scenes. Today Clash Of The Titans would most assuradly be rated R for the nudity shown in it. Why and how did society change? Why is a breast shown in a movie in 1981 any different than a breast shown in a movie today. Granted, most of the time nudity is shown in movies today it is before, during, or after a sex scene or scene of like nature. Let that be our second question. Why do we show more sex in movies now? They are almost never needed or essential to the plot. Answere: sex sells. People do not care about a breast unless it's being used in a sexual manner. That leads me to still another question: If people don't care about womens breast unless they are being used in a sexual manner then why is there a huge uproar about breast feeding in public right now. It would seem that it is more socially acceptable for a woman to have her breasts used sexually in public than to use them for the major reason women were given breast...to give there kid lunch. What does this say about the degradation of society. I think it says a lot.

Family Circus:
Not much new here. I will have some up coming announcments so stay tuned.

Sadies Corner:
Well life has been pretty boring lately. A lot of rain means little out doors. Thankfully it's not freezing any longer so Jesse doesn't stick those stupid things on my feet. I have enjoyed great games of chase the flashlight lately. I know it comes out of that stick thing that Jesse is holding, but it's still fun to chase. My friends usually come visit me once or twice a week and I usually get to play hide and seek with Adam.

The differences:
Well in CA you will never here the phrase "useta could" or "seemta can't". Used in context: "I useta could run a mile in 7 minutes, and now, I just seemta can't" Quote actually overheard in a conversation.

My life:
Well my friend Matt and I are still trying to get together for some good times. I finally paid off my used truck. I'm meeting with some friends for dinner this week and possibly catching a flic with another. Other than that it's pretty much the same old story...work, eat, sleep, play with the dog, and hang out with friends.

On another note:
Let us discuss men and women again for a bit. I think if you asked 100 women what cute means as applied to people they would list of any number of things having to do with personality. You ask that to 100 men and they will tell you that it is the pretty much the step in looks between your Plain Janes and your hotties. I thought this to be kind of interesting. It's also kind of an eye opener. I've been called cute a few times. I always thought I was being complimented on my looks. However after this most shocking realization I guess I've got a good personality.
Here is another thing to: Guys will use a common tactic of talking about "hot women" when they are with someone that they like as a friend but are not interested in. Today one of my galfriends was telling me that she was going to have to break it off with a guy that she's been seeing because he's always talking about hot women. She also said that it annoyed/hurt her when he did that. This also made me think as I have also employed this "tatic" before: Do most women feel this way? Does it annoy them and hurt there feelings? Then I think that wouldn't it hurt their feelings and possibly embarrass them if they wanted to be more then friends and we were not hinting that we didn't and then they did something that was not well recieved? Which kind of leaves us in a damned if you do damned if you don't situation. Should we be honest? Would that even help? People are notorious for: "Oh if I spend enought time with him/her I can make her see how much I love them and they will have to love me." Regardless of how honest you are with some people they will still think the above or any number of other flawed thought patterns resulting in the target falling in love with them. I also thought that it is entirely possible that as guys we our 'tactic" isn't being interpreted as we are not attracted to you and just want to be friends. Upon further reflection even most "hot women" are insecure about something. I would also speculate that most women that are not physically attractive by todays standards know that they aren't. They may try to cover it up etc...but they know. In general most people do. In this light all that this tactic is achieving is a constant and painfull reminder that we do not think the other person is attractive. They know they aren't and we tell them that over and over again. So women, here is my question to you if you are attracted to a guy or do things that may make a guy think youre attacked to him how do we tell you we just want to be friends because we are not attracted to you? Should we use our "hot chick tatic" but less often or should we say: "Hi, I'm Jesse. Pleased to meet you. I just wanted to let you know that I do not find you attractive and therefore do not want to be involved with you in any romantic way, but I'd love to be friends because I like your personality?" That is kind of a mouthfull. Both ways seem equally ridiculous to me. How do we do it? Let's get some female advice so ladies...send in your emails...

Until next time....
Jesse
