Friday

Friday is here! 

I noticed something today.  You know all those people that stand on the street corner with signs wanting money?  When did the signs STOP saying "will work for food" and just plain out ask for money?  And when did they start adding " God Bless you" and the ever popular "even if you can't give God bless you anyway"? 

Also, I don't want to sound racist this is just something else I noticed.  How many blacks or hispanics do you see out on the corner with the little sign asking for money?  I have seen one black guy.  I have noticed that there are more women out there but for the most part the ones around here look pretty mentally ill.

This is "good Friday".  I ~~ as a Christian ~~ don't know what is supposed to be so "good" about it.  If you know would you please tell me? 

How does everyone like this background?  I love it.

I love my dad but sometimes he can just be a horse's hiney.  I had him switch out some electrical plugs this past week and I was the one at the switch box asking if I had the right switch thrown to get the power to where he was at.  For whatever reason he couldn't tell when the VCR was off or not.  I ended up throwing all the switches until he finally goes "oh, I have been looking at the wrong thing."  I so wanted to strangle him.  That ain't the horse's hiney part.  Cut to the next day.  I was going to take a shower.  Turn on the water, no hot water.  I go and start looking at the switches, I had the power cut off to the hot water heater.  I told my dad this.  He says "there should have been a little spring on that one" Me: there was, him "well you should never have touched that one."  Now how the heck was I supposed to know that?  And if he couldn't tell if the power was off on the VCR who is he to roll his eyes at something like "well you should have known, how stupid can you be?" Horse's Hiney.

Men will confuse you no matter their age!  I love the background.  The only think about Good Friday is that Christ died for our sins.  I don't know why those people hold signs.  I'd bet though that don't really want to work for food so they omitted that line. haha  However, if the really want help to change their lives and circumstances shelters will help them.  The salvation army will help them too.
