Lost Vapor

I lost my little puffy ecigarette today. This is a horror story. I was down from a pack and a half a day to about 4 real cigarettes. Now I have to replace, re-deploy, and reorganize. The horror of it all.

Better horror is the Internet ravings I see on just how horrible this ecig phenomena is and how it is corrupting society as we know it. Just imagine, people pretending to smoke a tube that does not harm anyone but themselves, and probably not even really harming ourselves. The horror of it all. The rantings go from tantalizing the non smokers to join us-to killing ourselves in this new manner of not smoking.

Do we feel no shame? We are addicts without censure and shame. We should have to suffer and wear hair shirts for smoking a cigarette. WHICH IS LEGAL BY THE WAY. We should all rot in hell for not throwing the highest taxed product into the gutter and walking away to join all the self righteous bastards that denounce this obscene habit as a product of the devil himself.

And now the powers that are smarter than all the rest of us are fighting to make sure that the little puffy ecigarettes are banned until they can be sold by A LARGE DRUG company and taxed as a tobacco product, even though they are none of the above.

Well now I am pissed. I have not partaken of the following products in years: soda pop, potato chips, processed foods, butter substitutes, sugar substitutes, white sugar, white flour, white rice and pasta that is not whole wheat. I do not drink fruit juice as it is nothing more that a sugar with no fiber content. I only consume chocolate with a high cacao content of 70% or better-and then only one square at a time, not a bar of candy.

My cholesterol is excellent, my blood pressure is excellent and I am not overweight. I am also not anorexic, bulimic, or taking borrowed ADD meds to get smarter.

Keep it up and I will go after your cheap food, drink, and candy which is making you fat. And then there will be war.

I Hate Baseball

To me baseball is the dumbest sport ever, it just does not make sense. There are a bunch of guys that huddle around in a hole in the ground. There is another bunch of guys that kinda spread out on a thing called a baseball diamond, but it does not sparkle. There are some other guys that are supposed to be umpires and all they do is hang around and look kinda fat. Then they decide to play a game. The game is that one guy comes out from the ground and stands in front of one of the fat guys and swings a stick at the other guys standing around the diamond and if the stick makes a connection with a ball most of the guys on the diamond chase the ball. They do this for a long time. WTF.

Well, you know they have outsourced most everything in the U.S.A., they are now outsourcing baseball. I just saw it on the TV, India is now our source for baseball players of the future. Now don't get me wrong, everyone should have an equal opportuntiy to stand in a hole in the ground. But honestly, should we give such a stupid pastime up to the Slumdog Millionaires? Why does India not have a thriving baseball industry if they are so great at this sport?

Other than the fabulous Soccer teams in Europe where else in the world is any sports enterprise followed and adored other than U.S. sports teams? Canada has excellent hockey, but their teams play in the NHL and they want the Stanley Cup as much as any U.S. team does.

Segue to automotive, we invented the motor car, we adored the motor car, we raced the motor car and my husband's family was a major factor in getting the motor car in the hands of the American public.

Then we went into a hole in the ground and stood behind the fat guy and let everyone take away our "stuff." This is not protectionism. This is-why aren't we competing for our own place and why aren't we making India, Japan and Cuba put their teams up for competition like our friends in Canada do. Go Canucks.
