I am always wondering, why when people get caught doing something wrong, they always come to court and say "I'M INNOCENT I DIDN'T DO IT"
These people get caught "dead to right" and they say "I'm innocent"
Here we have drunk drivers, getting pulled over, failing the field sobriety tests, and getting arrested, then they go to court and say "I'M INNOCENT THE POLICE HAVE THE WRONG MAN/WOMAN"
Here we have an elected official caught ON CAMERA stealing money from copy machines, yet he goes to court and says"I'M INNOCENT I DIDN'T DO IT THEY HAVE THE WRONG MAN"
These are just two of many examples of people ABUSING THE SYSTEM, wasting the courts time, wasting the taxpayers time.
All the while claiming "I'M INNOCENT I DIDN'T DO IT"
Is this where society has gone,where people can't take responcibility for their actions?
Don't you think if they just admitted to their wrong doing, they may be looked at like
okay they have a problem maybe we can help?

So here it is the state's latest brainstorm, being kicked around at the state house.
They are trying to pass a No Price Marking On Items.
They figure this will save the customers so much money, because they figure
without items being marked, there is less chance of a screw up, (item being marked wrong)
ARE THEY KIDDING OR WHAT?
DO THEY REALLY THINK WE ARE THAT CHALLENGED THAT WE WILL HOPE THIS PASSES?
THEY SAY "WE'RE DOING THIS FOR THE CUSTOMER"
Oh god, like anyone should believe that.
The only reason they are RUNNING THIS UP AND DOWN THE FLAGPOLE, is because
they hope the supermarket's will give enough in the envelope for it to pass.
No good can come from this, by passing this is the beginning of eliminating more jobs
at an allready short staffed grocery business.
See by eliminating price marking you also take away jobs, what used to take a 4 or 5 man night crew to put the stock up, now can be done with 3. Because you won't be marking, all you'll be doing is cutting and throwing.
When asked SAY NO TO NO PRICE MARKING, THE JOB YOU SAVE COULD BE YOUR OWN.

As we sit here, reading and listening to the daily news, I'm just wondering
how the people got together and had the origional Boston Tea Party?
When did they finally decide,they had had enough?
Did they pass out flyers,stating their intentions or was it just word of mouth?
How did they decide what was to be tossed?
So now with these questions, what if we had a "TEA PARTY OF 2008",
what would we toss? How many people could we get to help?

Why is it people forget how to drive in the summer?
I mean here I am a resident of the cape, and I can't count how many people forget how to drive in the summer.
People going down route 6, in the high speed lane, doing 55 mph.
God help us if they see a car 6 or more lenghs ahead of them, all of the sudden they jump on the brakes.
WHY PEOPLE WHY?
Then you have people going down route 28 (the main road on the cape), slowing down
at every shopping plaza, looking for sales.
Guess what people, if you actually pull over to the side of the road, and that doesn't mean just pulling into the right lane, if you pull over then you can read the map.
women driving while putting on make-up,
why would you want to put on make-up while driving, with all the potholes, and bumps
I would think the make-up would end up looking like Bozo the clowns face.
People driving with their left foot hanging out of the driver's window.
Not for nothing, but if you have to stop quick,or you get hit head-on what happens to that
leg of yours?
Remember people: THINGS IN MOTION TEND TO STAY IN MOTION, UNTIL MET WITH A GREATER FORCE.
Then driving south and all of the sudden saying" oh my god I really want to go north I think I'll just turn right here.
Directionals, are not an option people,they come with the car can we use them?
Oh driving on the cape in the summer, it's not just a job, it's an adventure.
So I'm just wondering, WHY DO PEOPLE FORGET HOW TO DRIVE IN THE SUMMER?

So now we have the latest in end all cure all solutions, for what ails ya in the bedroom.
It's WATERMELON, yes you heard it right it's WATERMELON.
No need for little blue pills, magic lotions, or brown paper wrapped videos.
Instead just run to your local grocery store and tell them "I WANT MY DAILY DOSE OF WATERMELON".
Who would have thought, a fruit, grown in gardens, by just about anyone,would have so much power?
I'm just wondering who did the study on this? How were the voulenteer's chosen for this?
Could you picture the help wanted ad:
WANTED SUBJECTS TO FEEL THE EFFECTS OF WATERMELON
How much money was spent on this study?
Oh by the way, while at the grocery store today, you should have seen the line at the WATERMELONS.
Husbands,wives, girlfriends, whatever,all whispering,pointing, gasping,
the produce clerks, couldn't believe it, they had to call for a second delivery from the warehouse.
So remember no need to call the doctor, call the lawyer, call your father if you can't perform anymore, instead just run to your local supermarket and tell them
"GIVE ME MY WATERMELON, I'LL TAKE MINE WITH SEEDS

Thank God the fiasco is over,
That sad excuse for "if you pay enough we'll defend anyone trial."
However Fox 25 and all their reporters, anchors/anchoress's proved why they have such
a huge following.
Way to go everyone at Fox 25, it only proves you guys/gals are number 1 in the eyes of all your fans.
It was amazing how much professionalism their was especially when the verdict was given,and then his parents started their tyrate.
I actually thought if they could (Maria &Mark) were going to reach through the camera
and slap some sense into the two of them.
Again way to go, keep up the great job.
Hopefully we don't have to suffer through another fiasco like that in the near future.

As I sit here this morning, reading the Newspaper, I look over an article
that say's Town A is going to have to LAYOFF TEACHERS,FIREFIGHTERS, TOWN WORKERS, AND Whatever else, because the town is scared,the Override will not pass and they will be over budget and run out of money.
My question is this: If we as average people miss a payment, go over on our bank account, or just don't have enough to pay our bills, what happens?
That's right, they (the banks) charge you fees to cover your account, the phone starts ringing off the hook,from collectors, you get booted from your residence, or the power
gets cut off.
However if our Elected officials, mess up the state budget, town budget, or whatever
what happens to them?
That's right NOTHING, NOTHING HAPPENS, BECAUSE they come out and give us a lame excuse as to why they need more money, they tell us they promise to use the money for repairs, and finally we just keep RE-ELECTING THEM TO REPRESENT US.
WHY IS THAT?

Well it's official,
school has ended for another year, so now here they come,
yes they are arriving by the day IT'S BUFF AND BIFFY, IN THEIR SHINING BEEMER'S
with the Polo shirts, and Cardigan Sweaters around their necks.
I tried to stop by Starbucks to get my morning cup of coffee, however the line was out to the parking lot, the cell phones ringing, the Beemer's idleing, and the Latte's flowing.
I ended up going to Dunkin's with all the other common folk.
Good God , the way they drive, you would think they own the roads.
They just push by you with their nose's so far in the air.
I can't wait till summer is over, so we can finally have the cape back to ourselves.
It was funny though, there I was standing in the Supermarket and Buff's phone rang
it was Biffy, the conversation went a little like this" BIFFY BUFF HERE , YES OH NO WAY
WAY NO WAY REALLY OH REALLY OH , BIFFY I SHOULD BE HERE ABOUT ANOTHER
10 MINUTES OR SO, THEN I'LL MEET YOU FOR DINN DINN,
LOVE YOU MUFFIN,"

This is the Theme Song for all the gas and oil companies.
Instead of having corporate music piped through the loud speakers at the stores,
they are now piping the song "WE CAN GO HIGHER, YEAH YEAH YEAH OH WE CAN GO HIGHER"
See the problem with this is ,we as consumers although we may yell,rant,rave,and gripe
about the prices we do nothing to change them.
We act like"cows going to the slaughter house" we just follow the cow in front of us.
Now before everyone jumps up,stomps their feet, and screams
"the legendkiller is calling us cows" think about it, all we do is yell and scream for a
few moments, then we just grab the nozzle and start pumping.
All the while the oil CEO's are just watching the dollar signs spin out of control.
These elected officials that we have put in have done what for us?
That's right nothing, why?
Corporate interest that's why.
As someone once said to me"why would you spend over $10 million dollars, to get elected to a job that only pays you just over $200 thousand a year?
Yesterday 6/10/08 the mobil gas station in Mashpee was 3.99 a gallon for 87percent
gas.
the place was packed, pump after pump, going going going, last night at 9:15pm
the same gas was $4.15 a gallon, a 16 cent increase, and today 6/11/08
the same gas station was packed again .
Pump after pump, just flowing like the rapids over a dam.
Where is the outrage, why aren't people doing more to stop this?
IT'S BECAUSE WE ARE LIKE COW'S GOING TO THE SLAUGHTER HOUSE
WE JUST KEEP FOLLOWING THE COW IN FRONT OF US

Ah yes the first official weekend of the summer,is drawing to a close.
As some of the tourists,are making their "MASS EXODUS" from the cape, they have
encountered a 15 MILE BACK-UP.
Are you kidding? 15 Miles of bumper to bumper cars, kids screaming, "mommy,daddy are we there yet", parents yelling at each other" I told you if we left later this wouldn't have happened".
15 miles, whew thank god they put the "FLY-OVER UP".
15 miles and that's not even an emergency exodus,like a Hurricane or something else,
15 miles just for one regular weekend on the cape.

I am looking for some insight on this one,
as you can tell from the title how do you tell them they're not thinking?
Okay here goes,
They spend 12 year's in school, each year getting grades better than the one's before.
They meet new friends every year, and grow both physically and mentaly,
Now with only 21 days till they leave the books, leave the building for ever,
move on to "the real world", they tell you"YOU KNOW WHAT I'M ALL DONE I'M NOT GOING BACK, I'LL GET MY DIPLOMA LATER"
What do you tell them,how do you convince them they are screwing up?
Oh yeah i almost forgot, they are 18, so your hands are tied, so what do you do?

So there I was last night at 9:45pm getting gas so I could go to work.
Now remind yourselves it was 9:45pm and the gas was $3.29 a gallon.
Now I'm coming home from work this morning at 6:30am and I look over to the gas station, and LOW AND BEHOLD THE GAS HAS GONE UP TO $3.35 A GALLON.
I get home and go claming, it's now 7:30am ,I finish claming around 11:30am ,
drive by the same gas station and OOPS THEY DID IT AGAIN, NOW THE GAS IS
$3.41 A GALLON.
AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh by the way to get cars to pull in they put BALLOONS OUT AROUND THE STATION.
So I did the only thing I could think of , I had my window down, tooted my horn, and yelled over "HEY WHY DON'T YOU JUST PUMP IT UP TO $4.00 A GALLON AND GET IT OVER WITH.
THIS IS SUCH A FREAKEN JOKE, ONLY THING IS NO ONE IS LAUGHING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All the cooking, all the smiles (some fake, some real), when company came over.
Whew looks like i made it, looks like i survived another christmas.
Funny how we rush our children off to bed Christmas Eve, telling them "Mommy and Daddy just want some time for themselves, now go to bed so Santa will come"
Funny how just as Mommy and Daddy are sneaking up to bed around 4:30am
That the children come running into the room screaming SANTA CAME SANTA CAME!!!!!
Whew made it through another one.
I think next year i'm going to start planning for it real early, so i'm not so
stressed.

so there i was watching the afternoon news yesterday, and what should come on,
but the govenor's new plan in case the people in Boston need to evacuate due to terrorism.
He has come up with 3 strategic places where the people of Boston can hunker down in case of terrorist attack.
2 of these places are still a secret however the third place is The Base At Otis
In Bourne, on the cape.
Now i'm just wondering were these places thought up last friday around 3:50pm,
you know just before they break for the weekend?
The more i thought about this, the worse it seemed.
If there is another terrorist attack GOD FORBID, the govenor wants everyone from Boston to go to Otis, where they will be cared for, however and correct me if i'm wrong
why would you send everyone down to the cape over the bridges, to get to Otis,
suppose the terrorists were to hit the bridges, then what happens?
under the govenors plan now you have eveyone at Otis, with no way to get off the cape
we would be like fish in a barrel.
I think someone needs to re-think this idea, hey govenor why not let us all go to your property out in the western part of the state, from what i hear you have more than enough room.
