Michael

I know every blog in the world is covering the loss of Michael Jackson. I don't know what to say really. I love the man's music. His music conjures so many emotions and memories, how can I not love it.

I am tired of people judging him for something that wasn't proven. They won't even leave him alone in his death. I never thought the jokes about "little boys" were funny and I don't agree with how he has been treated. I do admit that I think he had a troubled life but that doesn't lessen his contribution to our world any less. J says that, yes, Michael shouldn't have put himself in that position but what parent in their right mind would let their child spend time with a grown man?

He changed the world. Heh, it sounds funny to say that, but if you think about it, it's true. He changed how people act, how people viewed music, music television, and the face of entertainment itself.

It doesn't matter if you never liked his music. He's passed and as a human being, you should honor it. Michael, you touched my soul with your music. /nod

Really, dad?

Quote from my dad, Arnold Crocker

"Twitter isn't anything but people telling you that they just went to the bathroom."

I told him that was only PART of twitter.

Facebook...More Like Facepalm!

So I found out from my work that they will be blocking facebook starting tomorrow. I blame people who just click on links without bothering to make sure that they are legit. So basically they invite viruses into the network. Not that this effects me much since I don't use facebook as much anymore but it's still crappy. Facebook today, everything else tomorrow. I use the Internet to relax from work and to take a break. That probably won't happen anymore soon. I should find out who it is and keel them!

I Agree...more than you know

Oh man. I have been subjected to appalling grammar this week. I want to put these folks under citizens arrest … for the murder of the English language!

1. People who say “360°” when they meant “180°,” as in “His attitude went 360°.” That doesn’t mean he changed his attitude. That means it’s right back where it started, fucktard.
2. People who mix up there, their and they’re.
3. People who can’t recall the simple ‘i’ before ‘e’ rule.
4. Amerikans who kant spell rite. (See below)
   

Happy Birthday J

This day is amazing. And it's amazing because it's my fiance's birthday. Happy Birthday J! I love celebrating the day you were born because if it wasn't for that, then you wouldn't be here.

You make my heart full as well as my life. I can't wait to marry you, have children and share our life together. Thank you so much for being here. I don't know what else to say but thank you, thank you.

From Jerry and Renee

This is So Sweet

I know I've posted a lot today but I had to share this with you.



This made me so sad. It made me think of my friend who has cancer but I'm glad this little girl was able to get what she wished for.

California girl gets dying wish to see movie 'Up'

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. – Colby Curtin got her final wish.
The 10-year-old girl desperately wanted to see the new Disney-Pixar movie, "Up." But the cancer-stricken girl was too sick to go to a theater.
Thanks to a family friend who got in touch with the movie studio Pixar, an employee of the Emeryville-based company arrived at Colby's home with a DVD copy of the movie, The Orange County Register reported Friday. The girl died later that night.
Colby's mother, Lisa, said she had asked her daughter if she could hang on until the movie arrived.
"I'm ready (to die), but I'm going to wait for the movie," she said her daughter replied.
"Up" is the animated tale of a grumpy old man who, after his wife's death, tries to fulfill their joint dream of visiting South America by tying thousands of balloons to his house and floating away.
"When I watched it, I had really no idea about the content of the theme of the movie," Colby's mother told the Register. "I just know that word 'Up' and all of the balloons and I swear to you, for me it meant that (Colby) was going to go up. Up to heaven."
Colby, who was diagnosed with vascular cancer in 2005, saw previews for the film in April.
"It was from then on, she said, 'I have to see that movie. It is so cool,'" family friend Carole Lynch said.
But the girl's health began to deteriorate. On June 4, Curtin asked a hospice company to bring a wheelchair so that her daughter could go to a movie theater but the chair was not delivered over the weekend, Curtin said.
By June 9, Colby was too sick to go anywhere.
Another family friend, Terrell Orum, called both Pixar and Disney, which owns the animation studio. The message was received by Pixar officials, who agreed to send someone to Colby's house the next day with a copy of "Up" for a private screening, Orum said.
The employee arrived with the DVD, stuffed animals of characters and other movie memorabilia.
Colby was unable to open her eyes to see the movie so her mother described the scenes. When her mother asked if she enjoyed it, the girl nodded, Curtin said.
The Pixar employee left after the movie, taking the DVD, which has not been released. Lynch, who was with the family during the screening, said the employee's "eyes were just welled up."
A call to Pixar seeking comment was not immediately returned Friday.
Colby, with her parents nearby, died later that night.
Her mother said one of the memorabilia left by the Pixar employee was an "adventure book" based on a scrapbook that, in the movie, is kept by the wife of the main character.
"I'll have to fill those adventures in for her," Lisa Curtin said of her daughter.
