Are Drivers Being Taught To 'DRIVE'?

I do not understand the thinking behind car manufacturers in this modern times. On a good day the average driver is frightening. Now, we have these cars with more camera's than the royal wedding. Sensors that cause the driver to have a false sense of security.  May be that I am just too ancient. Maybe not. I cannot fathom the logic behind the need for a 'Blind spot sensor'. To me it will lead to lazy drivers who no longer take that millisecond to glance over their shoulder and properly check their blind spot. What if the sensor malfunctions? Then we have the 'parking assist' - WTF! If you cannot park you should not be in the drivers seat. Add to this the newest doohickey - 'steering assist'. I am sure you have seen the commercial where the lady states, as she clicks yet another button, "Straight up the middle Big Guy?" Again I say if you cannot drive in a straight line please, please take a bus!!!! Next we have the &

Identity Theft - Who Would Want To Be Me?

I have just discovered that someone has hacked into my life via a fake PayPal account. I am truly baffled as to why anyone would want to be  ME . On a good day I would rather be someone else. I live off of less than $1500 per month. My rent is $995, Internet $60 and cell phones $90. Then add in food, bus fare and school supplies for my son and there is a deficit. These low-life scumbags have turned my life upside-down. All my finances are frozen. I have gone six weeks with no income whatsoever! Everyday is a struggle just to come up with $4 for bus fare for my boy to attend school. I strongly fear it is going to get much worse. Today I received a bill for $4,323.58 for a Canadian Tire Card I never have had. How they got a credit card is beyond me. I have tried numerous times to obtain a MasterCard to no avail. Yet these pricks ran up over four grand on a card they obtained. My credit is so bad that even I refuse to lend me money. I am irresponsible with credit
Why Are We Worshipping Performers and Athletes???? Ummmm, why does anyone bother to speak to Kanye West? Kanye when he dresses himself He’s as stupid as a crackhead and married to a media whore. KARDASHIAN POOL PARTY Society is so out of line with reality. We have placed sports and entertainment on a higher pedestal than our over five thousand various “gods” we worship here on Earth. We treat athletes like demi-gods. Yet, who praises and honours our nurses, doctors, emergency responders? True Heroes They are only praised when it is news worthy. Would West run into a burning building? Whoa, that may be a trick question because he is crazy. These are heroes worth praising Would Drake don scuba gear and search a river bottom for a lost soul? Would, what’s his name, Le bra Brains, or maybe it’s LeBron something, would he remove the remains of a severe crash victim so the family had closure? It’s a “game” – a game of overpriced tickets to pay outrageou

The True Shape I'm In

I am going to be very blunt and honest regarding how my life has turned out at the age of sixty. How, with the exception of a handful of people, I go through life extremely un-noticed and forgotten. As a point of “ reference”  I shall use song lyrics to emphasize certain points. The Bands – ‘THE SHAPE I’M IN’ was the first thing I heard this morning and it reduced me to tears. Precisely, the first two verses … “Go out yonder, peace in the valley Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley Oh, you don’t know the shape I’m in Has anybody seen my lady? This living alone will drive me crazy Oh, you don’t know the shape I’m in” My life is such a struggle that often I see no way to go forward. Yet, I have no choice but to keep going on. I have the responsibility of being a single parent and the lives of my two gorgeous dogs. My child and my dogs are why I am still here. We go without. Without food, without laundry money, without everyday things most take fo
