WELL...HERE SHE IS...SHE FINALLY MADE IT!

This is my new granddaughter...Teejay McKena Floyd. She was born a week late and with a LOT of difficulty. If you want more of the story, I'll talk about it in my next video. Suffice it to say, that she waited a week after her due date to come into this world and then made us worry...a lot. But...don't worry. Mom, daughter, husband and sister are all quite well.
YOUR BRAIN STRETCHER QUESTION:
Dentists say there is a SURGE in this procedure for teenagers. What are teens asking dentists to do?
Answer below:
TELL ME AGAIN WHY WE ADMIRE THESE PEOPLE!?!

Mel Gibson's threatening rants against his girlfriend, have landed him in some pretty deep doo doo. Not only did he make insulting racist comments, he threatened her...and THAT might just land him some prison time...MAKING TERRORISTIC THREATS is frowned upon by our judicial system.
And Lindsey Lohan...well, she continued to thumb her nose at the courts, ignoring orders to appear, then wearing an obscene message on her fingernail...sure it was small, and she said it wasn't meant toward the judge or the court but...do YOU believe that?
So, we're left to wonder why we admire these people so much. We place these people on a pedestal and then get disappointed when they show they are fallible, human or sometimes just SCHMUCKS! Witness Tiger Woods, Charlie Sheen or any number of politicians who've proven unworthy of our trust or admiration.
So...what do we do? Maybe look for "heroes" or "idols" a little closer to your own life. Or maybe admire these people ONLY for they talent they offer and NOT for the persons they are. Admire what is in their skill sets and not what is in their character. And DON'T be surprised if they exhibit human or sometimes subhuman behavior...that's life.
GUESS THAT MALE MODEL THING WASN'T WORKING OUT...

Bristol Palin, daughter of former Alaska Governor and VP Candidate, Sarah Palin has announced that she is marrying the father of her child, Levi Johnston. Levi issued a public and extensive apology for some of the things he said about the Palin family...some pretty harsh stuff. Now he says he made it all up. After a few attempts at acting and modeling, including a Playgirl spread, he says he loves Bristol and wants to be marry her.
Ya think Thanksgiving Dinner might be just a LITTLE awkward? Just a little?
SO...BP...HOW'S THAT NEW CAP WORKING? WHAT THE GOVERNMENT WON'T LET YOU TEST?

Apparently, Incident Commander, Thad Allen ordered a hold on capping the thing till further tests can be run!?! Meanwhile, as much as 5 MILLION GALLONS A DAY ARE GUSHING INTO THE GULF WATERS.
Ah...what could be WORSE than that? What other stuff do you need to know? Of course, that's just MY totally non-expert curiosity...call me silly...
IS IT BECAUSE THERE'S A CRESCENT MOON AND A STAR? SOMEBODY'S LYING...


IS THAT WHAT GOT HIM CONFUSED? He's Charles Bolden, the new DIRECTOR OF NASA! He told Al Jazera Network recently that BARACK OBAMA told him the NEW MISSION OF NASA was to reach out to the Muslim World to make them feel good about their contribution to math and science.
Let's see...ALGEBRA...that was about A THOUSAND YEARS AGO...anything else?
NOW THIS GUY SAYS...IT'S NOT TRUE!
AND THIS
GUY DID NOT
SAY THAT!
MEANWHILE...THAT GUY WHO SAID HE'D NOT REST UNTIL THE GULF OIL CRISIS WAS SOLVED... IS GONNA GO PLAY GOLF!
