Shark Sighting

I saw a shark. And jumping over that shark was one Donald Trump, calling himself The Ringmaster and announcing that the circus was in town. Well, he was right about the circus. Celebrity Apprentice has hit the airwaves again. I am hopelessly addicted to any variation of The Apprentice (including plain vanilla, celebrity, and the British version). It's hard to watch a train wreck, but there are isolated redeeming moments that keep me coming back.
This season Trump has separated the teams again into male and female. I don't know his reasoning but I would guess that there's less pretense starting out that way. No one is filtering something for the opposite sex. Women get cattier in a crew. Men get puffier in a pack.
So here are a few random observations from last night's premier:
Gary Bussey is a mess. His inability to turn off his cell phone was reminiscent of Blago trying to use his Smartphone in the last Celebrity Apprentice.
Dione Warwick on the register? Puh-leeze. Who puts a senior citizen on a technology-related task? I just slapped myself because I took exception to that. I'm not as old as Dione but I'm up there and I work in tecnology every day. But my point is that learning how to push all the right buttons is not a task you give an elderly diva. Send her outside to sing or something.
Back to Gary. The Pepperoni Profit was pretty funny but I don't believe he added any value. I would have just thought he was a NY whack-o and crossed the street. Then again I wouldn't pay $500 for a slice of pizza.
Star who?
Did they have to use those delivery vans or could the women have sent someone off in a taxi cab to deliver one of the orders at the end? They knew the timing was close. Why did they all pile into the van?
I felt bad for David. He had a nice camel coat though.
Richard is obnoxious. That will, of course, endear him to Trump.
Trump is obnoxious. So why do I watch this show? Oh yeah, I'm addicted.

Social Media Fast Day 1/2 I have been considering a social media fast.  Unbeknownst to me, someone I know was on a week long fast. She reported about how beneficial it was and I took that as a confirmation that this was the time for me. September 1 sneaked up on me and I had some commitments for posting some prayer requests, but once that was done, I uninstalled Facebook (my primary Social Media) form my phone. I can pretty well ignore Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn and the like but Facebook is my constant itch that I have to keep scratching. I came to the realization that I primarily use Facebook to feed my desire for approbation.  Don't we all want to be admired and respected?  Don't we often want to be right, to have a forum where others are agreeing with our brilliance?  LOL I'm guilty. I also realize the other downside of social media for me and that's all the political vitriol.  As much as I don't get sucked into it, as much as I scroll past...

Just a few more memories

There were a few photos that I didn't post on the entry about our trip to Boca Raton.  I'm sure I have a bunch more in various places. I figure we gained 7 pounds, 700 friends, 7,000 memories and 7,000,000 photographs. Video from Awards Night

Largo Women's Bible Study Dec 6 Gathering

Largo Women's Bible Study Dec. 6 Gathering This time of year so many are looking for gifts. Some are home made, some are expensive, some are great bargains. But we also celebrate the birth of Jesus and the greatest gift of all. And on Wed. Dec. 6 we will discuss the gift of forgiveness. And we'll party a bit and laugh and talk and network around the Word of God. How to find us: Women's Bible Study and Fellowship at Boulevard Apartments Largo (Seminole Blvd just north of Ulmerton). Address is 2098 Seminole Boulevard. Here's how to get in: As you drive in, look for a small yellow pole on the left (about 2 car lengths before the actual gates) and use the keypad to dial #307. That will call us and we will use our phone to acknowledge so you can get in. After the gates you will see one lower building directly ahead of you. That is the clubhouse. When you are facing the clubhouse, if you look to the left you will see our building (#3). There is an elevator. We are...
