Ramblings of Silver Blue

….Taco Hell. Guess they ran out of Taco Meat and decided to use the Hot Dog Chili from two units down in the food court. I managed to eat the soft taco, but that crap RUINED my Nacho Bellgrande. Trust me, if I wasn’t still nauseated, I’d go and demand my dinero back.

A proper man met a beautiful girl and agreed to spend the night with her for $500. When he was ready to leave, he told her that he did not have any cash with him but that he would have his secretary write a check and mail it to her, calling it “RENT FOR APARTMENT.” [...]

A local priest and pastor stood by the side of the road holding up a sign that said, “The End is Near! Turn yourself around now before it’s too late!” They planned to hold up the sign to each passing car. “Leave us alone, you religious nuts!” yelled the first driver as he sped by. [...]

If I post a password protected rant, or post, or whatever, it is because it is not for public consumption. If somoene requests a password, and it’s given to them, that does not mean they can then give it to other people. That also does not give them carte blanche to attack me on my [...]

Comes from Sharing The Journey (also quoted, verbatim, in the “more” just in case their blog vanishes. These are words to read and heed).

My remaining Grandmother, who has battled Melanoma and Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, turns 81 this December, and now has elevated calcium levels in her blood. It could be nothing, or it could mean that the cancer has returned. Please pray for her. I hate the thought of losing both of my grandmothers in the same year. (Actually, [...]

I just posted it, but it’s a password protected Rant. If you wish to read it, please email me at silverblue-at-coxdotnet. I’ll give you the password. While I found it quite cathartic and beneficial to my own life, I’m not sure if the situations and person(s) mentioned (generically, I’ve mentioned no one by name) would [...]

Read at a random website: It might be a cliché but it really would be a better world if people treated each other the way they want to be treated themselves. Keep an open mind. We are all different. Prejudice ones – remember – it is not people who love each other that causes problems, [...]

Molly hits it on the head.

I want one of these. Though I think the 100 GB model is a bit overpriced. Ebay has them (from this company) with free shipping. I’ll let you know when I get it in how I feel about it.

Full Speed Ahead. If the ship is going to sink, then so be it. I’m going ahead with the Rant. But should it be broken into chunks? It’s already 4 pages long. Just remember something as you read it (once it’s posted). The intent is not to defame or injure anyone (above all, do no [...]

There are two guys who have been lost in the desert for weeks, and they’re at death’s door. As they stumble on, hoping for salvation in the form of an oasis or something similar, they suddenly spy, through the heat haze, a tree off in the distance. As they get closer, they can see that [...]

A young couple are on their way to Vegas to get married. Before getting there, the girl said to the guy that she has a confession to make; the reason that they have not been too intimate is because she is very flat chested. If the guy wishes to cancel the wedding, it’s okay with [...]

…and changed my mind.* I was going to participate in a free iPod giveaway, had linked from another blog, gave them a link, really read their blog and discovered that their ideology and mine were not compatible, so I removed their link (yet they still received the credit for bringing another “person into the study [...]

As a reminder: “Regime Change Begins At Home”

I’m posting this here, so that when many of died this winter from flu, and the government says they did all they could to prevent the catastrophe, that words cannot be changed.

I’ve got a number of invites to pass out, if anyone wants them. Remember…gmail keeps track of all your email (in fact, there may be some privacy concerns here) BUT…. if that doesn’t bother you, and you want an account, eitehr drop me a line at silverbluesbe at gmail.dot.com or leave me a comment.

Mr. Bonnie turns 92 today. Happy! Happy! Happy Birthday!

I’ve decided, for the current while, to not post the rant I have written. It’s 3 single spaced typed pages. The rule of thumb I applied: would it do any good, and/or correct anything in my life? The answer is: The flower that would bloom would be beautiful, but it would also be toxic. So…we’ll [...]
