Attorney: Wal-Mart Collected On Deaths

Attorney: Wal-Mart Collected On Deaths

For this, walmart should burn in hell for all eternity. In the store I worked in, three associates died in the last year. I know for a fact all three of them were on the walmart health insurance, and I'm willing to bet my bank account they "insured" them. I've been anti-Walmart for a few months (meaning i shop there maybe once a month), I dont think I could go in there now without having a nasty attitude in the future.

Blackberry woes

I found this story rather amusing. A few days ago, there was a rather large Blackberry outage (that either didnt affect me or I didn't notice). Well this happened at the worst time for an unlucky lad. Apparently it caused his girlfriend to break up with him cause he didnt get her emails. I guess it was too much for her to use her cell phone as a cell phone and just dial the damn number and call him. What a way to break up with someone. I think she may have been sleeping with his brother or something and that was a perfect out for her.....

Goodnite Aunt Pam

Today my aunt was remembered. She had a long (almost lifelong) battle with lung disease. It was so severe she had a double lung transplant May 2006. She did well under the circumstances, but fell ill lately. They were doing some sort of treatment on her, and some complications came up and went into cardiac arrest. My aunt was beautiful, inside and out and I looked up to her for that. She had many friends and it was a joy to have a chance to meet them today. It was nice to see family I havent seen in a while, I just hate it was under these circumstances.

She will be missed.

Fios gets better

They are giving free speed upgrades to customers. I was on the 15/2 package, now I'm on the 20/5 package :-P

WOO HOO I won an Ipod!!

So like I guess I'm supposed to be all excited and stuff since I really dont win anything. I decided to goto a nice little shindig employee banquet tonite for my job. A chance for me to be real spiffy and dress up. They had a "roaring 20's" theme that I didnt take part in, but it seems like it would have been fun to do. I'll be with the theme next year, I promise. So I get to meet alot of people that work in other offices thruout the county, had some drinks, etc. My dood couldnt get out of work, so I decided to take mom with me. One thing about these yearly banquets is that they give out some really cool prizes. I've heard about vacation packages to Disney they've given out in years past. Thru the night they give out alot of other cool prizes, AMEX and Best Buy gift cards, etc. I kinda wished I could have got one of the $100 gift cards.

In any case, the night winds down, and my mother is hard up for a smoke and neither of us had one (oops, i thought i quit) but I was like "lets just wait to see who wins the ipod". Well, a good part of the crowd had left, and some of us die hards were still there doing cha-cha slide and stuff (keep in mind, at this point we have some drunks on the dance floor, there was some hilarity there, albiet still fun). He called three names of suckers that were already gone. Too bad. So sad. I almost injured myself running to claim my ipod ;-)

I will admit, I'm thinking "I can care less about an ipod, I dont really care for an mp3 player right now" and I was thinking how much I could get on ebay, but I actually like it and wanna hang on to it (unless someone makes a great offer). They even gave me an iTunes card to download some stuff, pretty cool.

Arent I glad I left wallyworld? :-P

Meet Pearl!

Ohhhh I love pearl!!! I should have got this phone from the start, but I decided to get me a Blackberry Pearl recently, and they come in white now! I think it's safe to say that I will always have a Blackberry phone forever. I havent had a camera phone in a while, and this one takes some nice pics. I dont use it that much, just to identify my callers and all with the picture callerID. I got a microSD memory card, and don't know what to put on it :-

Hello 2007

This year has gotten off to a quick start. It feels like February already. 10 minutes after the ball dropped my granny got rushed to the hospital. Doctors say "she's fine" so she goes home on Wednesday, sits at home for two hours, has another seizure. I'm sorry, but she's not f*cking fine! She's ok, but in her 94 years, we will probably have more episodes in the future. I hope I didnt offend the nursing staff with my colorful concerns.

Life continues to go well for me. I'm in some secondary training for my new job. Been there for a while, this is I guess the second stage of training. There's alot to learn, and I'm having great fun in the process. I started early on my "life upgrade" for the year. My Buick was dying, so I get another car. Back in a Honda. I love my Hondas. Things were fine, but then, I became suspicous. Mainly because of where I got the car from. People were making comments like "you got a car from THERE?". I started digging a little. As pure luck would have it, me and mom are out and about, before ending the day, we went to the grocery store. It seems I see these Buicks all over town, and I pull up next to one that looks just like mine. What a minute. I had a scratch like that here. I had a dent here. My same blinker light was busted. Hold on, wtf. I have a burn mark in the back seat EXACTLY like.....hey! that's my old steering wheel cover!!! (I can identify the boxcutter marks I put in it) I do a quick VIN check and write it down, alot with the number under the "for sale" sign. I still had some of my papers. Well I'll be damned. It WAS my car! So I have a friend call up the number, and the shady snake of a sales manager answers. Tells all kinds of lies about the car. The kicker is that he declared the miles 20k lower than what I had when I gave them the car. Something is fucked up here. My Honda could be fucked up too. While I was digging and coming up empty, I goto a good friend of mine who has been a mechanic for over 20 years and has his own mechanic business. He points out many obvious signs of this car being in an accident. Some of my training at work on shady titles confirms this.

To make a long story short, I gave that piece of shit back, and have a nicer newer sportier car as of three days ago. (I pulled all kinds of reports and asked questions for a week) I'm moving on up. It matches me. It's cute and drives fast. In the last few months, and especially lately, friends have commented on how relaxed I seem, how I "look good". Well duh, no stress? I"ve even worked on upgrading my wardrobe. After working at wallyworld for 3 years, all I ever wore was dickies or other casual pants and tshirts. I have three drawers of tshirts. Huge deep drawers. The salvation army or even the local ministry can use them more than me now. Life has treated me well lately. I'm Blessed and I cant complain.

Oh BTW, dont eat at Burger King. My stomach and my exit-only back door has worked overtime in the past two days, and probably grossed out my cats in the process. I didnt have enough Pine Sol to keep my bathroom smelling fresh enough...
