Madness

Madness cant do this
Theres nothing  there yet today
Come back later K?

Michelle Obama, wife of presidential candidate Barack Obama, and Madness have something in common. Sort of anyway.  Apparently Michelle Obama recently said that she is proud of America for the first time in her adult life.  Madness is not yet proud of America for the first time in her adult life…but she could be. Pending the outcome of the 2008 presidential election.

Yeah..so..what.of.it.  America allowed the evil spawn of satan G W Bush to move into the White House and proceed to fuck us all … yeah, thats exactly what I meant to say… fuck us all.  Even though anyone with any damn common sense could plainly see that his royal dumb ass was unfit for the job.

What’d REM say again?

 Read about it here.

Madness took this pic with her camera phone.  Notice the evil Rae of death … MmmHmm.

and oh my gah…how cute is this..

Hillary Clinton

 (thats her right there in case ya didnt know who Madness was talkin ’bout) … Hillary said “Pick Barack Obama over McCain” .. oohh.. hearing Hillary say the words Pick Barack Obama  made Madness SQUEAL.

Then!! John McCain

 (thats him right there)

said he predicts the Iraq war will be won by 2013 but the threat from the Taliban in Afghanistan won’t yet be eliminated, even though Osama bin Laden will have been captured or killed.  Uh. Come again? You gotta be kidding me!

Please stay tuned as Madness goes off and barfs.

I am ding dang near about to scream! Yes.. me.. MADNESS.. is about to SCREAM. Ok people.. here goes.

Madness drives through TWO of these every morning on her way to work :

what IS that eye sore on the side of the road … placed randomly throughout the city. What do those FLASHING YELLOW LIGHTS above and below the sign that reads “School Zone 20 MPH” MEAN?  Hmmm.. Why oh why did they not cover this on my DRIVING EXAM before issuing me a LICENSE to DRIVE A VEHICLE!?!?

Oh!? They DID cover this on the exam before issuing me (and YOU) a license to drive? OH! Well .. umm.. then what Madness doesnt understand is why EVERY. DING.DANG. MORNING. there are IDIOTS driving, oh, 45..50..60 MPH thru a SCHOOL ZONE!?!? WHY PEOPLE?!!? WHY!?!

Madness usually lays on her horn like the crazed mad woman that she is politely taps her horn if she notices someone failing to slow to 25 MPH in a school zone.  Sometimes Madness will be kind enough to cut you off and slam on her brakes demonstrate the proper braking and slowing technique.  This morning Madness was politely tapping her horn at the mini van in front of her as she rounded the bend in the road that marks the beginning of the school zone. And to Madness HORROR this minivan did not slow down at her command. Huh? What? Oh.Hell.No.

So, Madness caught up with the evil minivan from hell eh, we’ll leave it at that, Madness caught up with the evil minivan from hell at the next light and politely tapped on her horn. THIS was the exchange between Madness and the driver of the evil minivan from hell…seriously.

Madness:  ”Excuse me, Ma’am. That was a school zone back there and you failed to slow down AT ALL”.

Stupid Idiot: “So what are you saying?”

Madness: “Im saying that youre suppose to SLOW DOWN FROM 50 MPH TO 25 MPH when you see those BIG FLASHING YELLOW LIGHTS AND THE BIG SIGN THAT SAYS SCHOOL ZONE 25 MPH”

Stupid Idiot: “I was keeping up with the other cars”

*Imagine* now the LOOK on Madness face when this bit of OH.MY.GOD. what do you call a statement that is SO DAMN STUPID!?!?

Madness: “What!?! You dont “keep up with the other cars” you SLOW DOWN to 25 MPH like youre SUPPOSE TO!!”

Stupid Idiot: “I dont want to argue with you”

Madness: “IDIOT!”

Un.be.lieve.able.

My dads loooong time friend Lou, whom he started his law practice with many moons ago, was recently diagnosed with cancer.. Non Hogkins Lymphoma, I believe. Mom died of lung cancer in 1994. This is a hard time for dad

I found this blog some time ago…Ive been a lurker .. checking daily for updates. Susan seems to be in remission now. Praise Jeebus.

Keep Lou in your thoughts and prayers. He’s undergoing chemo right now.

I know.

This was a sweet note…till I got to the end. Two things…

1) Norm..NORMAN!?! Umm.. ever read Stephen Kings Rose Madder? Uh yeah.. not so sweet.

2) P.S.  You didnt know it but you married one.  Uh yeah, Rose Madder fo’sho.

Creepy.

Dooce has spoken..and as usual..Madness can hear the collective fist pumping in the air …

Read it here . Along with some lovely photos

Madness was left with a deflated balloon feeling after watching Dooce on the Today Show.. deflated and sad. But not sad for myself..sad for the world. You see.. Madness already knows whats so damn special about Dooce and the other blogs like hers out there. What Kathie Lee Gifford and the Today Show did was an injustice to the rest of the folks out there who dont know.  Those who dont know may have seen that segment and been all “yeah, MommyBlogging is as lame as I thought it was” and Madness is all NOOOOOO!! Wait!! You got it all wrong. But you know how they are..whatever TV says is law.

Fight Write On Dooce! and the rest of us.. Write On!
