Let's put something bad to an end

Reading today's political section of the New York Times online has left me with an interesting view of the world. Considering that someone wants to put an end to the Don't Ask Don't Tell policy that was put in the military years ago and has been there since. It is the fact that Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual, and many others have suffered under this horrible idea for little over a decade and having it finally looked at again, it is time to put away this part of our history. Reading: Reid to Push to Allow End to "Don't Ask Don't Tell" Many people over the years in the military had to live with this in the shadow of their daily lives. Considering that when this was established was to protect homosexuals, this actually did more harm than good. It was almost saying, well, you can be here, but you can't say anything or do anything, you can't date, you can't have any contact with someone you might be in love with. It was a nasty bit of business if someone we

A New Planet and the best news

Apparently a planet that was supposedly light years away might be closer than originally thought. This is kind of interesting as seen in the article found on yahoo.com: First glimpse of a Planet from another Galaxy . If you were to see a planet from another galaxy what would you think? You would have the idea that maybe there are other life forms on it, aliens so to speak. Its an interesting thought and not a far fetched one. Many ideas from recent years point to the idea of life on other planets. Some of the astronomers are actually excited about this and are thinking there might be air or some kind of environment to study. What is really strange about this world is that it jumped ship from another galaxy and wound up in the Milky Way Galaxy, which is our home. Called HIP 13044b this planet is going to show more to the world than just being a silent watcher as it appears around a distant star and also seems to be getting closer. People are now considering that maybe this planet might

Let's Drag it out?

Read this: Driver Convicted in Teen's Death Sues Victim's Parents Why do people are pretty bad about taking responsibility? Sadly not for this guy, he was pissed off that he was convicted and thinks that suing the parents of the teen he killed can conpensate his freaking ego! What about the parents? How do you think they feel having to be served for the fact that their 17 year old had died from a driver who ran him down. Just because the kid was riding without a helmet. There is something that should be brought up, if kids don't like a helmet, THEY WILL NOT WEAR IT! I have read helmet laws in many states, and most of them are not enforced as much, it is usually believed that it is for motorcycles and little children. If you think that suing a person for the parents of a child who dies as result of their irresponibility and not paying attention. Not to mention he might be slightly drunk when he did this. In my opinion, this is freaking stupid and not worth its time in writin

You are the future.....maybe not!

I am thinking about this in some depth considering that high schoollers are becoming the next college students, now that 2011 will be drawing near. Yet we have people who are into Twilight, and some other Teeny-Bopper fads that are just about as helpful as getting a piece of your brain ripped out from the nasal cavity of your nose. A note for Teens reading this and thinking that you can get anything you want, just because you're young and such. IT JUST DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY. Sorry, but when you stand getting your diploma and you leave the 12 years of shelter existence and end up going to colleges or onto the work force you are about to learn a few hard learned lessons. There is no Edward going to sweep you off your feet and marry you off the bat, unless you are some icky little model slut who can't keep her knees together and sleeps around. There is no scholarships that pay for everything, you are going to somehow going to have to pay for things for yourself, no parents to
