A Restless 3 Day Weekend

Hey there.  Happy Labor Day to all!  Our labor day weekend has been a restless one.  Our baby stated showing signs on sickness Friday evening and he had a stuffy nose through out the night.  That didn't let him sleep much so we were up most of the night trying to make him comfortable.  Come Saturday, he's in full blown sickness...  coughing, slight fever, and runny nose.  Needless to say, sleep wasn't meant to be for Saturday night.  Sunday... he seemed a little better, but now our daughter and son start with a sore throat and some coughing here and there.  Oh man...  The baby has gotten some of the older kids sick.  Come Sunday night, our son woke up close to midnight and refused to go to sleep.  Before I knew it, it was close to 4 am and we were still up trying to comfort him.

We had plans to go to the LA County Fair but most of the kids are sick, the baby is being fussy, and now I'm beginning to feel a sore throat.  Oh man... so much for an activity filled weekend.  My bro did come over on Saturday and I managed to win a game against him in Madden 11.  Believe it or not, I've never really played much of the Madden series so I'm awful at it... but we made it somewhat exciting and interesting!  lol 

Ugh...  Now I'm sneezing... greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat...  Hope we start feeling better soon.  Until then, later.

The Near Death Experience

A middle-aged woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital. While on the operating table, she had a near-death experience. Seeing God, she asked if this was it. God said: "No, you have another 43 years, 2 months and 8 days to live."


Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a face-lift, liposuction, breast augmentation, and a tummy tuck. She even had someone come in and change her hair color. Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it.


She got out of the hospital after the last operation, and while crossing the street was killed by an ambulance speeding to the hospital. Arriving in front of God, she demanded: "I thought you said I had another 43 years?"

“Sorry,” God replied: "I didn't recognize you."

What is in McDonald's Chicken Nuggets???

Hey there.  I'm not sure if you guys are aware, but there's a lot of people that eat fast food.  lol  A popular spot is the world famous McDonalds.  The golden arches have been selling burgers, fries, and nuggets to millions of people a year and quite frankly, it can become addicting.  Addiciton...  That brings me to my point.  What the hell does McDonalds put in their food to cause people to go crazy?  As of late, there has been this video roaming the web about a woman that couldn't have chicken nuggets and she went into a rage, punching a woman, and smashing the drive thru window!  Now, I would be inclined to say, "you know what, the woman must have had a tough day and just lost her better judgment." but this is not an isolated case.  I've read people calling 911 because the chicken nuggets ran out, people fighting over the fried food, and now insane incidents in the drive thru.  I don't know what's going on but I'd say there's some special ingredients in there to make customers go back for their fix.  I'm just saying...  Someone needs to check them out.  If you haven't seen the video, I've posted it here.  What do you think?  Crazy woman?  Or crazy McDonalds?  Later!

$1 Admission to the LA County Fair This Weekend

Hey there.  I've lived in the Los Angeles are my whole life.. yet, I have only been to the LA County fair once.  I went a few years ago with my family and we had ourselves a good time.  This year, I get word that admission is only a dollar during the Labor Day weekend.  But only if you show up before 1 PM.  I'm definitely there!  With a family of 6, admission would probably run us closer to $100 so if we can get in for a $1 each, it's definitely worth it!  Here are some of the deals that are going on for $1 this weekend at the LA County Fair:
