sky rockets at flight...
As an Alumni of the UT Rockets, I thought I would do a little shout out since Homecoming is this weekend. This will be my first since being out of school! GO ROCKETS!
The Secret
I recently got this on book/cd and wanted to see what the hype was about. (Thanks Oprah) I have listened to it a few times and really do think this is a great thing! However, some of the stuff the lady talks about such as, "think of money,and it will come to you.. " is crap.
Personally, I think about money all the time and it is always leaving me...
BUT, she does bring up some good points! Having a positive attitude in life does make things happen for you! I would suggest reading/listening to this gem. My disclaimer being "a lot of BS but some helpful life tips"!
Has anyone else read this?

Creeped out... hows is this even allowed?!
I ran across this website and am completely creeped out and can not believe this is even on the internet.
www.crime-scene-photos.com
Im sure you can guess whats on this website. My question is, is this even moraly right to do?! I just find something really wrong with this for some reason. I guess its just the fact that its someones family member... Anyone else disturbed by this?

Ode to Buckeye Cable Systems
The reason for this post is to let off a little steam...
I am infuriated with the service that buckeye cable provides and am now going to list the reasons as to why.
1. It took them 5 times to come set up my cable.
2. They give you a 2 hour time slot of when they will be showing up... because I don't have anything better to do than.... work? (also, a shout out to the guy who had the time slot to show up from 12-2 and made his grand enterance at 6:30 pm and said, "Sorry, I forgot to look at the bottom of my page". I hope you make it in the cable installation world and I hope buckeye cable offers a gold clock to you for your 10 year gift. It might come in handy.
3. They have a customer service department that yells at you. example A.) They had to wait 5 minutes for a door to be opened, and tell the customer (me) to reschedule because "they can't wait around all day". ( There are 2 things wrong with the above statement and I will note both. The customer service is a joke, and I don't mean funny haha joke. Also, arn't they making
me (customer) wait 2 hours for them?) moving forward.
4. I told them eight (8) times I needed wireless internet for my laptop computer... so why did you bring the cord with the wrong modem . And, even if I had a PC Desktop, I think the cord needs be longer then the length of a small childs foot. If this is even considered a "cord/cable". I didnt sign up for cable to begin with. Which brings me to another point
5. They can't listen nor make the necessary changes to a work order after being told 5 TIMES...Does the system just reset and my order go into LaLa Land with everyone employed there? Obviously there is no drug screening going on at that office. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.
5. They are a monopoly. Monopoly's suck.. unless you are the one with all the money. Otherwise, get the F*** out of my. BTW, thanks for your $20.00 credit off my $ 150.00 installation charge. Thank you for bending over backwards in these hard times! The gas companies and cable company are now in the same category.
6. It's a disgrace that "buckeye" has to be associated with that company.
Mind you, I just walked in the door and turned on my computer.
I haven't even turned my TV on yet to find out what they did to that.
"Bang My Head Into a Brick Wall" might be my next post title.
XoXo,
Loyal Customer

Im sorry HGTV that I haven't been a loyal fan, I'm sure you will understand why.

How to annoy people on an airplane
And I DO care about this...
I found this list of how to annoy people on an airplane and thought I would share...
I laughed out loud at some of these!
Act like a movie star.
Ask someone for their autograph, pretending that you think they're Tom Cruise or Madonna (This best when the person looks nothing like the movie star in question)
Ask the guy next to you to hold your dentures (senior citizens only)
Ask the person next to you, "Are you in the Witness Protection program too?"
Attempt to promote Hinduism among passengers
Bring a "Word-a-Day" calendar on board with you. Read every single word aloud and attempt to use it in a sentence. Use them all incorrectly. "My, you have a very irate home,' she said governessly."
Bring a cellular phone. Call God. Say, "The reception is much clearer up here...."
Bring a duffel bag packed with pipe cleaners, styrofoam balls, construction paper, etc. Organize a "Kraft Korner". Make a craft likeness of the person sitting next to you. Give yourself an "F". Bring a microphone and act like Frank Sinatra
Bring your computer keyboard without a monitor. Place it on your lap. Stare into the palm of your hand. Wait. Push the return key a few times. Yell out "Yes! Alright! I told them I didn't need a laptop!"
Plug the headphones into your nostril and play Doom.
Call the stewardess "nurse".
Continually offer to share your "Beano".
Decorate. Bring a scatter rug and tiny draperies. Hang a "Home Sweet Home" plaque on the back of the seat in front of you. Invite your fellow passengers in for tea.
Describe your sex life in great detail to the five-year-old next to you
Disco dance in the aisle Don't use deoderant, then "accidently" stick your armpit in someone's face
During the inflight movie, ask to share headphones with someone
During the meal, loudly explain that on time you ate shark fin soup and proceeded to puke all over the airplane, spewing chunks of shark on the other passengers
Explain how, one time, the plane was crashing and the oxygen masks didn't come out, 'cause they aren't really reliable, and that if the plane was to crash, everyone would die
Fart loudly and act shocked, looking around to see who did it
Fiddle around with the emergency exit, then ask a fellow passenger if he has a crowbar Get some rub-on tattoos and a leather jacket, pretend that you belong to a biker gang
Give someone a coin, saying "Heads, I detonate the bomb. Tails, I don't"
Go into the bathroom and make rude bodily noises, then come out looking refreshed.
Go into the bathroom, drop your pants, then come out, yelling "We're out of toilet paper! Stewardess!" Go into the cockpit, ask the pilot in an obnoxious voice "Why do the call it the COCKpit?" then snort as if it's the funniest thing in the world
Go up to someone and ask loudly if they wouldn't mind applying Preporation H to your hemrrhoids.
Hum the Monty Python theme song.
If someone has a bad toupee, whack it off.
Jump up and scream "AAAHHH!! I left the stove on!!"
Lead a bible study session in the back of the plane.
Lead a revolt against the first class passengers.
Lean back in your seat, fold your arms behind your head and exclaim, "Thank God for auto-pilot, eh?"
Mess up your hair, untuck your shirt, basically look crude, and mingle with a first class guy as if you were long-lost friends
Moon passing Delta planes.
No matter what the meal choices are, demand rice-a-roni.
Pick your nose and pat the person next to you.
Pinch the stewardess' butt as she passes.
Pretend you're flying the plane.
Put on a ten foot diameter sombrero and slouch in your seat, whacking everyone on the head. Remark that perhaps you shouldn't have put superglue in your undies that morning.
Ride carry-on luggage down the aisle, yelling "Yeee-ha!"
Say, "Did you know every time a plane crashes, an angel gets its wings?" Then sigh and stare dreamily into the clouds.
Scratch your butt, then sniff your finger.
Scream and dive under your seat for no apparent reason.
Show off your Batman underwear.
Sing along with the songs on your Walkman.
Snap Polaroids of him or her. Pull out an empty photo album and arrange the pictures inside it. Tuck the album under your jacket and say, "You know, in some cultures they believe that when you take a person's photograph...you own their soul...," while smiling maniacally.
Sneeze, using somebody's sleeve instead of your hand to cover it
Snort when you laugh
Speak in Spelling Bee-eese: "Hello. H-e-l-l-o. Hello. Nice weather we're having isn't it? Weather. W-e-a-t-h-e-r. Weather."
Spill soda "Accidentally" on the person next to you.
Sport a kamikaze helmet and goggles.
Speak in a low voice into a hand held tape recorder: "Today's date, December 7th, 1941. I was not able to command my own personal plane but success shall still be ours...."
Start a hot dog stand.
Start singing the Shari Lewis theme, "This is the song that never ends, it just goes on and on my friends, some people started singing it not knowing what it was, and they'll continue singing it forever just because, this is the song that never ends...." Suddenly realize that you can never stop singing. Become very panicky.
Scrawl "Help me" on a piece of paper and hand it to the person sitting next to you.
Claw at your throat and thrash around in the seat.
Never stop singing.
Steal a businessman's laptop, play solitaire on it.
Suddenly remember that you left your iron on. Ask if the pilot would mind going back so you can check.
Switch accents and see if anyone notices.
Tap at the windows, saying "Looks pretty tough" then ask somone if they have a bat you could use to test.
Tell corny jokes and laugh like it's absolutely hilarious, then expect others to do the same
Wear a hairpiece and switch it often, seeing if anyone notices
Tell the person next to you your life story, from DNA to that afternoon
Tell your fellow passenger that you just heard the bathrooms were out-of-order. Then pause and say, "Did you know that peanuts are a natural diuretic?" Smile.
