I took my car in for an oil change on 11/21/09 on a used car I recently purchased. I also asked the manager to check the heater as my heat was not working in my car. He came back 15 minutes later and informed me I had a badly leaking water pump, an oil leak on the valve gasket cover, and my thermostat needed replacing. A total estimate of repairs and labor of $479.97. I became very upset as I am moving cross country in less than two weeks, a fact the manager knew. I informed them I had to come up with the money and would be back. I then took the car to another mechanic... [Read more]

Long before I actually met The Blogger In Purple, I knew who he was. Each week, his wildly colorful musings took his readers into his world. The words one might best use to describe what they’d find there? Shock and aww, because The Blogger In Purple’s entries would vacillate wildly between sexual titillation (“He wanted to put his what where?”) and heartwarming sentiment. Sometimes, the two worlds would collide in a way that left you realizing just how talented he truly was. They were filled with people whose names were changed to protect the guilty and... [Read more]

When living with someone and entering or leaving the home would you consider it rude to not say anything? I’m going out, be back late…or whatever? I live with a friend and whenever he leaves the house, he never says a word. If you try talking to him, he cuts you off right in the middle and never lets you finish. Is that rude or what? Whenever I leave, I always say something… Be back late, see you tomorrow, won’t be around for dinner, etc…  Read More →

I have never seen a more rude bunch of people. If you don’t belong to the “group” who all camp together, you’d better not post a question. You’ll be made fun of, ridiculed and everything else. Sad really… supposed to be happy Disney people. They made me not want to stay at Fort Wilderness.  Read More →

Americans For Truth. What American doesn’t want truth, right? From our government, from our loved ones… truth is, as we all know, a good thing. Except, of course, when it is a blatant lie. Google the words “Americans For Truth” or simply go to americansfortruth.com and what you’ll find is a vile little group whose REAL name is “Americans For Truth… About Homosexuality.” And in their latest attempt to prove themselves the most vile organization on the planet — and there’s a lot of competition out there, kids! —... [Read more]

There are a lot of different ways one can respond to an insult. But when being called “fat” by someone, it might be wise to think twice before coming to the conclusion that gnawing on their flesh is the way to go. But it appears that’s how Anna Godfrey of Lincoln, Nebraska opted to respond. Told by a guy at a party that she was fat, Godfrey chowed down on his ear according to police reports. The 21-year old woman also tackled her 24-year-old commenter, also not necessarily a great choice since the notion of a her taking down a guy and then chomping on his ear —... [Read more]

Oh, those wacky, crazy, zany Californians! Only they would come up with an idea like trying to go seven days without using obscenities! While there’s no penalty for violating the about-to-pass resolution, the state has declared that during the first week of March, California will become a “no-cuss zone.” Assemblyman Anthony Portantino, who proposed the legislation — expected to pass Monday — is perhaps taking a “strive for perfection, plan for shortcomings” approach, will deliver a cuss jar” to the offices of every... [Read more]
