Another Teacher...... Another Rant. Justice Served?

***DISCLAIMER*** Before I get started on this, I want to curb a few of you right off. This post is not about what I would do, or “if it was my daughter”. This is about facts and about how things get so f’ing twisted we can’t see straight. If you are going to reply, and say “If it was Adora……” don’t waste your time. I am commenting on the situation, not the morality. ***END DISCLAIMER**** Derrick Joseph Redden is an idiot. Hands down, an Idiot. A sexual relationship with a 16, now 17 year old girl…. Ludicrous. But the question is, is he a criminal? My response to this……. Empthatically, NO. We discussed this after the last teacher scandal. I fail to understand what these so called judges find illegal. If being a complete and utter moron is a crime (and maybe it should be) then hell yeah, he’s guilty. But it is not a crime. The judge was quoted as saying It’s clear that there lurked in that teacher an evil which was an evil that led this man to throw away his career, the res

Google vs common Sense. Common Sense? Not so Much.

Common Sense. It seems like such an easy term. A term that means that most people would see the sense or nonsense in something and act correctly or accordingly. Problem is, it is not so common. A lot of times it seems people take the stupid road. And it is fret with danger. Meet Lauren Rosenberg. Lauren is a resident of the fine state of Utah. Lauren recently wanted walking directions for a trip to Park City, still in Utah. She decided smartly to consult Google for directions. This might have been the only smart thing she did that day. Google does provide walking directions, but it is in the beta stages. That however in my mind is irrelevant. But I’m getting ahead of myself. Anyway, Lauren decided to use this Google service to get directions to Park City. Part of the directions took her to a part of Utah State Route 224, which apparently has the nickname Deer Valley Drive. Again the name is unimportant. This state route is a highway, and can of course, as highways are, be busy.

Don't Do Good At Subway.....Unless You Are Already Job Hunting

Subway may be the place where fresh is the taste, and they may allow you to eat fresh, but don’t even think of being a good Samaritan. That will get you fired. Heidi Heise of Dartmouth is one of these good Samaritans. The apartment she lives in almost burns down, people she knows and lives within the building are homeless. She takes them in, helps them, even offers up her free meal at her Subway job to help. And her boss at Subway, with little to know question of what happened felt the need to fire her. What kind of boss is that first of all, that doesn’t even ask what the issue was? Is the boss a complete idiot to not know that her building was engulfed in flames a week ago, and know people are homeless? But maybe I’m jumping the gun a little. Maybe this is Subway common practice, and the Manager is just a corporate puppet. The thought of this is rather sickening really. Even more sickening, is that Subway has not made any reply to this issue. Are they standing behind the asini

2 year and 3 year Old Smokers? Are you F’n Serious?

So I recently read  Here  About a 3 yr old smoker in China. Chinese toddler Ya Wen . Apparently she started the habit after being injured in a car accident. The parents say that the kids was secretly smoking, and billing cigarettes on a tab at their local store. Ok, let’s back the truck up. Secretly smoking ? Getting smokes on credit at the store? Maybe I’m not up to date on China’s practices, but when is it acceptable to give smokes to kids at a store? Also, how is she secretly smoking? In my experience, most 3 yr olds cannot work a lighter. Does she stick her cancer stick in the toaster for a quick puff? On the stove burner perhaps? And how does she know what to do? It says she disposes of them in the toilet. Why not the garbage like every other kid her age? Apparently this kid also drinks beer. What??? Most kids can barely open the lid on their sippy cup at her age, and she cracking the top on a cold one? Then there is 2 year old  Ardi Rizal   This kid was smoking 40 cigs a day. 4
