People of Interest …


So, now that the Blog Nazi is gone … Don’t you wish you knew what that was about?
Just so you know, even though the Blog Nazi has said otherwise and threatened hostile actions against me for attempting to make others smile, feel free to pass this Bloguverse on to anyone and everyone you think might enjoy it … or care the slightest about me.
I am throwing this stuff out for the world and less then a dozen people, ok ½ dozen people, look at it … I expected a pain in my heart … but not in my ears from all the crickets!

Today though I figure, why not talk about People of Interest!!!
A lot of you are going to say names of important people like the Presidential Nominees.
I don’t work that way … I saw a show on Giants and Little People … now that’s some interesting stuff!

Gigantism is a strange, in some cases, hormonal issue during childhood or something wrong with the Pituitary Gland.
Aren’t we glad this normally only happens to men!!!
OMG It’s Grid … and Bobby just broke up with her!!!
RUN BOOBY RUN!!!
(Feel free to look up the name Grid and the help she gave Thor … it might make that funnier)
These poor people, or kids as it happens when they are young, have some issues to say the least.
There bones and muscles don’t grow right, they tend to be in a lot of pain all of the time and then also they don’t tend to live as long as others.
Shopping for clothing is a whole other issue, most must be specially made
They must have special vehicles and all kinds of other things to live a comfortable life.
Attempting to be an optimist here so lets see if we can find a plus side to this disorder … … Fist to be picked for the Basket Ball team in PE?

Then I watched a show on Little People. (Anyone under 4’10-ish)
Here we have two groups, Midgets and Dwarfs … I say 5 throwing in Umpa Lumpa’s, Hobbit’s and Munchkin’s but Scientists have not recognized these others yet … racists!
Just so you know there are over 200 variations of this disorder … and being Orange has yet to be noted as one I might add!
Some of these people are in the 4 feet range and can get by with a somewhat normal life.
The wife and I saw one, on TV, that was 27 inches tall … that is little!
They still have health issues and other considerations that make this a sad disorder too.
Clothing is still very difficult to find and there voices tend to be a little higher. (See Munchkins and the Lollipop Guild)
Optimist time again … One of the pluses for this is … … less likely to get hit by Lightning?

Now we also have the Disabled, Mentally Retarded, Handicapped … and just Retarded
Disability = Something that makes general life more difficult for you.
Such as loss of sight or a lost limb
Mentally Retarded = Someone with a mental disorder such as Down Syndrome
Handicapped = You are not as good at the game as the other guy, and he then says he isn’t as good as he is in an attempt to make you feel better about your sad physical prowess in said game.
Then we have ‘Just Retarded’ you are just not right in the head …
Examples of this can be found in every one of us from time to time … some show it more then others but we aren’t going out be pointing out any fingers just yet …

We have all said to a friend at some point ‘You are so retarded’.
You know the idiot who sticks a firecracker in the frog’s … bum.
Puts big mud tires on there truck and then jacks it up 5 feet so they need a ladder.
Walks around with a Trucker Hat that says ‘Your hot for a Mom’
Thinks that the larger his belt buckles and the tighter his jeans are the better he looks.
Thinks it just isn’t a weekend unless someone wakes up naked in the back yard with a hangover and a burn someplace from a bonfire.
The big one is, if any of the above-mentioned actions happened when you were sober!

OK, so now that I think about this a little more … I guess that ‘Just Retarded is also known as Rednecks?

A lot of people are out there with problems and they just want to be treated like normal people … that includes in Jails and not being thrown from a wheelchair!
We can’t always help staring at these people though … sorry guys!

On the same note though … Just because you are ‘different’ doesn’t mean that you can be rude and hurtful!
That chaps my … bum … you want equal rights, but only when it can help you?
You’re like women!
(Woman) ‘Treat me like one of the guys!’ … ‘Why didn’t you open the door for me?’
I am from the south … how is it I have to fear being polite and going against how I was raised because you and yours decided to burn your Bra back in the day?
Do you all remember the show Gomor Pile?
One episode he tipped his hat at a female officer instead of saluting her and got in trouble for it.
Then she made him help her at her office and she saw that it was just his way of being polite and respectful and she ended up felling bad about it.
Take a second and grasp already that in the South that’s how we work … or, go back up North you darn Yankee’s!
Also, stop saying how much better it is up North … if it is so good DO BACK!
STOP RUINING MY ELECTIONS AND TRAFFIC!!!
(Dumb Yankee)‘O, my kids have already finished school and I am on a fixed income … lets vote for Amendment #1 and try and get one over on the locals’

… O’yea … Getting Old in Florida is going to be a topic soon!!!

Cap'n Underpants can help you with your research on getting old in Florida; remember: in dog years . . . he's dead. I, on the other hand, being three months younger, am a spring chicken and could not possibly be of any help to you, unless you need information on not aging gracefully; the best hair coloring techniques, for covering gray; or the phone number for AARP. Yahoozers - let's go out kickin' and screamin"!!!
