Right #1

Yesterday Ambra and Michelle were talking about the six year old in the balloon and I said, that's crazy and sad. They kept talking about it, but I wasn't paying attention. Finally I overheard one of them say that the family was on Wife Swap. Then I perked up. "Was it the crazy UFO family?" I asked. I remembered that odd family that was on the show twice that were all about science and aliens. They confirmed that it was that family.

The story had new meaning to me now. I telling Michelle and Ambra that the family was crazy, the kids were little shits, the father was a monster, and it was probably all a hoax. I kept saying that I wouldn't doubt that the kid is just hiding somewhere that the two kids were evil enough to pull that kind of prank.

I was right. We are going to start keeping count.

And I'll say now that I'm sure that the entire family was in on this prank and that it was their ploy to get back into the public light again. I don't know why yet, but as soon as I figure it out I'll let you know.

Peace

So, our President won the Nobel Peace Prize. There has already been a bunch said from both sides said about this, but I have to share my thoughts from neither pro nor con. It makes me think that maybe they are giving this award out too often.

The reason that the Nobel committee gave was that Barrack Obama was opening up the lines of communication or as one reporter put it, he's not George W. Bush. If this is true than the award should really go to us, the people of the United States of America for being sick of the status quo and insisting that we have a President that was more willing to use diplomacy and work towards uplifting the image of our citizens. Really were the ones who set this tone and he hasn't done anything else accept get elected at this point in history.

Thank you Nobel Peace Prize. I needed a boost.
