The junk that pops into my brain

And How Was YOUR Day?

~ JodiLea

  Some days you’re on the  road crew. Some days you’re just on the road.

I suppose this did not humiliate the opossum who was well-flattened before the painters showed up.  It should have humiliated the bozo manning the sprayer. I wonder if he (it had to be a he,  right?) was nursing a killer hang-over, or a major blow to the head.

When I saw this photo, after I stopped laughing, I felt sad. The “it’s not my job” attitude reminded me of the “what’s in it for me?” and “who gives a shit?” attitudes.

What happened to people “giving a shit” and doing something because it needed to be done?  Are we so stressed these days that we only focus on our own to-do lists and ignore the world around us?  Too much pressure cancels our pride?

I’m no sociologist, but I do know one thing.  You would never see this in Mayberry.

OK, Whose Idea Was This?

Leverage S4 Premiere
The long-awaited Season Premiere of  Leverage was a big disappointment. The story was interesting and unique. The acting was superb as always. The problem was the location.
.
The story takes place on a snow-covered mountain. What’s wrong with that? Oh let me count the ways…..
  • Everyone has to dress in 4 layers of clothing, hats, gloves, etc.
  • You can only tell Eliot and Parker apart by the long blond hair hanging out of her head coverings.
  • Not once did we see any muscles.
  • Not once did we see Eliot beat up somebody.

They had better get with the program or the Kaniacs may revolt.

Oh and Happy Birthday to Christian Kane today!

TTFN 🙂

Life is Good!

Just when you think life is becoming dull, you realize it’s June 26th!

The long-awaited Season Premiere of  Leverage is tonight. Of course I have the DVR set to capture the show because it airs past my bedtime. And yes, I admit that I must watch the good parts over and over again. Oh…. If my poor heart can take it…

“What good parts?” you ask.  Obviously you have not seen Eliot in action. My violent streak, that I never knew I had before, lives for this show. Sometimes I ask myself “what is going on with me?” I did not used to be like this. No time to analyze this now because…

If that was not enough, True Blood also premieres tonight. This will be recorded because I don’t watch it alone. Not that it’s too scary, but it’s not fun to watch it without my daughter. She’s the one that got me hooked on the crazy show in the first place. Because she does not have HBO, she has to come to my house and bring her daughters with her. A win-win for grandma.

The girls do NOT get to watch the show (in case you were worried). Hell, I can barely watch the naughty thing myself! I wouldn’t watch it normally, but I’ve just got to know what happens next. I’m still trying to figure out if Sookie is adventurous and brave, or really really stupid.

Until next time 🙂
