meet lady ga ga

So I was recently introduced to someone, Lady Gaga, and I was thoroughly impressed. Check out the videos, even if you don't like her, you'll love the outfits and comic relief they provide. I mean when was the last time you saw someone rocking shoulder pads or black socks with neon green sandals??

the world is on fire

Today is one of those melodramatic days. It's cloudy. I'm bored -- should probably be doing some work. Anyways, I was just sitting around so put the telly on C-Span, and the next thing I know the "democracy" we live in, better known as the United States of America, is going to hell in a hand cart.

Our elected officials are currently voting for legislation that could quite possibly bankrupt us. They are gambling with the security of future generations...

So, I guess what I am trying to say is, "the world is on fire".

Enjoy the clip.

welcome back, welcome back, welcome back

Okay - so the semester is well underway, and I think I've managed to find my "mojo", meaning, with a little hope, I can start blogging again - yeah! For all you die-hard readers out there, I'm sure this is monumental, exquisite news on such a dull September morn.

I'm heading out to get a scoop -- yes, yes, duty calls. I am hitting up the local SPCA; then, I am knocking on doors and calling some financial gurus to see what this mortgage mess means for us young, fabulous types.
