My Statement

"Let me emphatically say that I am not anti-Facebook (Fleecebook), anti-smart phone, anti-Microsoft, anti-Apple, anti-Google or anti-Internet. I do believe, though, that the consumer is being ripped off of his privacy, identity and purchase history. We are being herded into a Facebook corner where what we "Like" and where we go physically and on the net will be scrutinized and sold numerous times to actually corrode and erode our culture while tempting us only with convenience, high tech and flashing video screens. The unsuspecting consumers need to be aware..." - Gary Lapman

It was inevitable...

I knew it would happen, and it did very rapidly.  Perry has become the frontrunner in the formerly (G)OP candidate list, surpassing Romney.  While there is much ado concerning the everyday quotes from the candidates, apparently health care is going to be the BIG issue between Perry and Romney.  It always seems to be about our wallets!  It is still up in the air, however, whom I will be voting FOR or AGAINST in the primaries- OR whether it will MATTER or NOT.



A blonde watching the news hears that two Brazilian men die in a skydiving accident.

She sobs and cries, "Oh my goodness, that is so sad! How many is a brazilian?" 




There was this little elderly man one day who got out of his rocking chair and told his little old wife he would be back in a little while.

She looked up at him from her rocker and asked, "where you going?"

He replied "I'm gonna go get me some of them there Viagra's at the doctors' office"

She didn't say anything just got up and started putting on her sweater.

"Where you going?" the old man asked

She just smiled and said, "If you're gonna start using that old rusty thing again, I'm gonna go get me a tetanus shot!"
