The Miracle on the Hudson:
Am I the only one not surprised when incidents like the one that happened on the Hudson River do not end in a catastrophe? Am I the only one that is not shock by the news of the on-lookers willingness to help those affected? Today on my way to work I was listening to my usual AM radio program and I was a bit taken by how surprised the hosts and callers were that everyone on the plane survived.
Have faith people. Miracles happens everyday. There are still good people out there.

The show "Whatever Martha" - My new find.
I want in on this show. Why don't I get this lucky. I do not want to toot my own horn but I am funny and I can be tres sarcastic. During the show, Martha Stewart’s daughter Alexis and her daughter’s friend Jennifer watches tapes of the Martha Stewart’s show and critic it. Both Alexis and Jennifer are hilarious. Martha did torture her daughter when Alexis was a child but one thing she did right was teach her how to be independent. It is evident to me that Alexis is quite the perfectionist and she can have her own Martha Stewart type show.

Question for AM's webpage-how does love show up in your life as a verb
My response-Since to me “actions speak louder than words”, I am sometimes puzzled when I hear some people whose action I find questionable say it to me. The word love was not use around me when I was growing up but it does appear as an action in my life. Love makes itself known as a verb in my life when I am babysitting my friend’s kids or hanging out with my little cousins, and nephews and nieces. Here are some ways the little one use to show me that they care and these actions transcends time, race and gender: By crying when I leave, by making sure they are sitting as close as possible to me on a couch, by locking me in a room to prevent me from leaving, by picking fights with other kids to get my attention and by interrogating me when I am not where they expect me to be (by far my favorite because the questions I get during these sessions are hilarious).
Now hope she gets to read it which I doubt since as true to form her mailbox is full. This is very frustrating Missy- get a bigger mail box.

Train-wreck television is back with a vengence
What with reality shows such as “Mama’s boy”, “The bachelor” and “True Beauty”? The worse of these is True Beauty which is telling its contestants that the contestants are being judge on their outer beauty but secretly judging them on their inner beauty, whatever that is. But wait, the judges’ court is made up of people who have made a name for themselves by capitalizing on outer beauty.
As for “Mama’s Boy”, three mothers obsessed with their son’s move into a house with 30 girls hoping to pick a suitable sex partner for their boys, the boys living in a separate house are also hoping to pick the mother of their children from the group of girls. My favorite is the mother who has made it known that his son’s future sex partner can only be Jewish, it was fun to see her flip-out when she saw her son making out with a non-Jewish girl- a black girl as a matter of fact.
Finally, “The bachelor” I thought they would have run out of girls by now but sadly that is not the case, the producers were able to find 25 more annoying estrogen field species for this special bachelor whose name has slipped my mind. I hear he is engaged to one of the girls already and spoiler alert; it is the one in wearing the blue dress during the last episode.

Obesity Tax- Thanks?
Because I am poor and live in New York State, I will have to give up my favorite indulgences; therefore, I am pulled to write this:
· To my true love Coke-Cola, I will miss your warm caramel look and your sweet mouthwatering taste.
· To my one and only twixt, I will miss your soft shell and hard sponge like interior.
· To whole cream, I miss the way you add flavor to my favorite pasta dishes.
· To my dearest darling Cheese, I do not know how to begin, you make so many things taste scrumptious, I do not know how I am going enjoy stuffed mushroom without you there to hold everything together.
One day my sweets I will have a successful career and you all will be able to make my home yours as well. One day I promise you all, we will meet again; you all return to add flavor to my nourishments.
Till I am rich and super skinny,
Yina

Is there more than one Christmas?
After years of watching bad Christmas movies, listening to people speak about why the love Christmas, and avoiding charity mall beggars, I finally figure it out folks, there are two Christmases. There is the religious Christmas celebrating the birth of Christ whose birthday is either on April 17 or on June 17, which is now celebrated on December 24 instead of the usual date of december 25,, and the non-religious one that celebrates Santa and 24 hours niceties on December 25.
A question from me to you:
Which of these two Christmas do you celebrate and if you can think of a different kind of Christmas please let me know?

Random thoughts on my generosity and consequence
Ah! The holiday season is upon us, and as I see it, the time for me to take a break from my generous spirit is come; that is all I have to say on this topic, I started writing this yesterday and I have lost my train of thought.
As for today, I am thinking of the quote I sent in to “Prime News with Erica Hill” in 2006 that states, “It is okay to lie if you do not care about the consequence”. The law of consequences guides me, keeps me sane and protects those who get of my nerves. It is our right as human to do whatever floats our boat but remember every action has its consequence. If you chose not to think about the consequences of your bad actions please pray for luck that those you hurt react as you hoped.
