My Blog. Generally Intended for Reading-Not Eating!. |
Rose-Tinted Ramblings ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** A Little of What You Might Expect & A Lot of Everything Else that You Don't!. My writing style for my blog is invariably 'snarkastic'. This is because I am a nice, unassuming and quietly-spoken person IRL-and this blog is where my innermost moments and torments happen. Trust me, I am no exception to that delightful rule. Greetings! Welcome to my THIRD blog here on WDC. A re-incarnation of my earlier version of my Blog, here "Insanties and Sensibilities" this v.03 should prove to be equally...challenging and hopefully, entertaining. That said, life often weaves through our writing in mysterious ways, and this Blog will probably prove to be no exception to that. We are very likely all quite different, yet the same, us writers and our collective little whims, fascinations and insecurities. |
March 01, 2008. Whether the Weather be: 45 (F) Severe hail-storm Events of Note: Ongoing illness-ongoing and ongoing and ongoing, and not gone... In the Nudes: Israel kills 46 in Gaza attack. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Enough self-interested prittle and prattle for today. Storms outside are easing, and the front garden looks freshened, florally festive and inviting. Red robins are rioting with raucous crows and bawdy blue-jays for tree territory. Lots of discussion of Spring, but maybe I should gently walk the walk, before I talk the talk. It seems easiest, that way. |

February 27, 2008. ...finally. The DHHS and Department of Public Health in our County has conceded that we have a 'flu epidemic. Declared about three weeks too late, apparently, since the worst of the epidemic is over. NOW they're telling people to keep their children from school, and for people to stay at home. The newspaper only just ran a major headline on it today. Ridiculous. Considering that I've been reading press releases from the CDC and WHO for over a month stating such, exactly who has been paying attention to this issue?. This is primarily because of general apathy. If it doesn't directly affect people, most folks could care less. What we need is a good, old-fashioned worldwide pandemic, to get our public health priorities straightened out. The current 'flu vaccine is only good for three of the five major flu viruses circulating around at the moment. IF YOU HAVE THE FLU-STAY AWAY!. ![]() |
