Money makes the world go round. Well that is what some seem to think. It seems like there is never enough to go around is the biggest problem. No matter what I do it just seems like I have a big hole in my pocket. It never fails either the one time I have a few extra bucks the car brakes down or someone needs to go to doctor. Well easy come easy go, maybe not easy come.
Who was it that came up with the phrase, money doesn't buy happiness. Well that maybe true to a point, because money may not buy happiness but it sure helps. I think that the guy who said that must of never been broke. Trust me I can't ever think of a time when I had money and wasn't happy about it. I can't even tell you how many times I was broke and not happy.
The thing is money can be great and it can be evil. The second reason on the list of divorce is money. The number one spot surfing the Internet. Money there is never enough no matter how much you have. The crazy thing is the more you make the more you spend, so in reality it doesn't matter how much you have you never really have enough.

Nightmares and Vengeance: Movie Critic Roundup
Freddy is back, or is he? Jackie Earle Haley has take the role of Freddy Krueger in the new Nightmare on Elm Street. So how does Haley compare to Robert Englund, the original Freddy. Englund played Freddy in eight films and a TV series. According to Michael Rechtshaffen,of the Hollywood Reporter, there is no replacing Englund. Overall Rechtshaffen didn't like the movie. As for Roger Ebert, famous movie critic, he gave it only one star out of four. Bill Gibron from Filmcritic.com seemed to really like it, and gave it four out of five stars. All in all most of the critics didn't much care for the film.
Well I went back to school to become an engineer, but maybe I need to change my major. It looks to me that Hollywood needs some new writers. By all means I am no Wes Craven or Steven King, but come on. Is there no more imagination left out there. Did they run out of ideas in Hollywood or what. I mean every time you turn around there is another remake of an old movie. If all it takes is to take someone else's story and rewrite it to make millions, well then I'm get screwed. I have been doing that for the last two semester. There called blogs.
What I really hate is the fact that they take a good movie and ruin it. I mean there are just somethings you can't remake. I think the Freddy Krueger with Robert Englund is unreplaceable. Don't get me wrong I am not saying that the movie is bad, because I haven't seen it yet. It may very well be a good movie, but it will never be better then the original. I think that people need to start thinking out side the box and come up with some new stuff. I mean come on Batman is played out, give use a new super hero.
I feel that people are being lazy and just don't wait to come up with something new, because it is to easy to make a quick buck by changing someone else work and call it there own. Is that what this world is coming to, where we can't even think for ourselves anymore.

Relationships
Relationships can either be the greatest things ever or the worst thing ever. I personal have had both. Why is it men and woman are so different, but need each other so much. I don't care how much someone tells you they don't need the other, there full of it. I mean everybody wants somebody to love or to love them. Yet we take our partners for grant much to often. I think that is why people end in divorce so often.
People don't take relationships serious anymore. I mean to most people anymore, a marriage license is just a piece of paper. A marriage license is really a contract. Yes it is contract, to love, honor, and obey. I know some people don't like the last one, but it is true. The thing people don't understand is that to obey, is to obey your heart. You can read in to it however you want, but to me if you can't obey your vows then you are just going to be a statistic.
I also think that people watch to much TV!!! They expect love and relationships to work like all these love stories they watch on TV. Well guess what? They don't, it takes work from both side of the partnership. You have to give to receive. I mean if you don't give something into the relationship then you won't receive anything from the relationship. Thus ending the relationship and years of therapy!! Just kidding, well maybe for some people.
Just remember if you have someone or even if you don't right now, remember to tell them what they mean to you. Love them everyday like it was the first day, because like I said in a previous blog life sometimes happens. You just never know what tomorrow holds, and tomorrow might be too late.

Police: Man tortured 4-year-old to death for wetting his pants
Brandon Joshua-Frederick Hayes, 24, could spend the rest of his life in prison. Hayes tortured and beat Dominick Calhoun, 4, to death for wetting his pants. According to police, Hayes burnt the young boys knuckle and punched and kicked him. Calhoun was barley breathing when EMS arrived, and later was pronounced brain dead at the hospital. The police chief said that this was the worst case of child abuse he had ever seen. Hayes has been charged on nine different charges, just a few are one count of first-degree premeditated murder, one count of first-degree child abuse and one count of torture. This is not the first time that abuse had been reported at the home, but the Genesee County Department of Child Services were unreachable for comment. It is also unclear where the mother was during the assault the boy. It was known that the mother was there for part of the beating and did try to shelled her son.
What the !@#$$!!!!!! I mean stuff like this just ticks me off!!! I mean what is wrong with people. Who could beat and torture a 4 year old child. The boy had an accident, wait let me stop there. Even if the boy did it on purpose the actions from the boyfriend by far don't match the crime. This man didn't just do something uncalled for, he did something just down right evil. This poor boy has been a victim much like many kids around the world, and it is said that there are people like Hayes. I also believe that Hayes is not the only one at fault here. Where was the mother, or better yet how could she allow this to happen. I mean you can't tell me this was the first time Hayes had abused little Calhoun. Then there is Child Services. I mean there had been several reports made about abuse, but nothing was ever done.
There were several people at fault for this crime, and this poor little boy had to live out his last moments of his life in a living hell. What's even worse is that Hayes will be the only person punished for the crime. Even though there is no punishment that even comes close to what he deserves, but at least he won't be able to do this again. I don't feel that prison or even the death penalty is good enough for Hayes. He deserves the exact same thing he dished out.
Even though it doesn't seem fair that this poor innocent boy lost his life, at least now he is in a better place. I mean there are worse things then death, like living in hell like he did. I mean don't get me wrong this is all messed up, but as we all know that life just sometimes is cruel and unfair.

Life just happens
Have you ever had a plan and it just never happens the way you had planed. Well that just seems like that is the the way it always works out. My question is WHY!!! It just seems like there's a secret club out there that there only goal in life is to make sure that your plans never work out. Life can never just be simple. I have always been told that God will never give you more they you can handle. Well lets just say he has really push me to the edge sometimes.
My life has really had some major ups and downs in my short 33 years of life. Even though I have always managed to over come these problems, I always wonder why can't things just work out the way I planed. I am a simple person and I just want simple things, but the simples things can be the hardest thing to get.
Well not that I am trying make all of you listen to my complaints but sometimes it helps me to blow off some steam here rather then on someone who doesn't deserve it. Well no matter what seems to happen in your life just remember that things do get better. It isn't something you have done necessarily to deserve, Sometimes life just happens.

Note for family among W.Va. mine victims' stories
What a sad day for so many!! Josh Napper was a coal miner in Charleston, West Virgina. Napper was one of 25 men killed in a terrible mining accident. Napper had a feeling something was wrong at work, so he decided that he would write to his family be for going back to work. This would be Nappers last words he would ever say to his family ever again. Pam Napper, the mother of Josh, didn't find out about the letter until after her son had gone back to work. "I just knew that Josh in his heart knew that something was going to happen, "Pam Napper said Friday.
What a terrible story!! It is crazy that sometimes people know something is going to happen before it happens. It is to bad that this young man didn't listen to this feeling. Coal mining is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. If you have been following this story on the news there has been several things that just tick me off about the whole thing.
According to the news this very mine, that took the lives of these 25 men, was cited for safety violations that morning. This was not the first time either. My problem with all this is what is going to happen the owner of the mine. I mean if I go out and kill so one in a car wreck, because I was messing around I will most likely go to prison. Even though I didn't mean to kill the person I still have pay the price, because of my negligence's. That is my point the people of this mine knew that they where breaking rules, but they didn't care. Now 25 families have to pay the price of someone else's negligence's.
Well I guess life just isn't fair. That is all right, because people my get away with complete lack of respect in this life but someday we will all be judged. The question is what will be your sentence.

Tired of feeling sick
I am going to rant for a few minutes.
I am sick and tired of being sick. I started feeling sick on Thursday and cannot seem to get over whatever this is. It is awful. I have a sore throat, cough, funny feelings in my stomach.
Ever since I had surgery last year, I have been getting sick easier than ever before. When I had surgery last year, I got pneumonia. Ever since I have been sick about three times. It is horrible. Never in my life have I been as sick as I have been since that dumb surgery.
I guess I should explain a little. Last semester about a week or two into the semester I got kidney stones for the sixth time. Talk about painful. Well, this one was a big one, it got embedded and wasn't budging. So they did surgery to remove it and they also placed a stint in between my kidneys and bladder. Well I was released from the hospital the next day. I thought that the surgery would help to make the pain go away but I was wrong. The pain didn't stop for almost a month. Through the month of September I was almost permanently in bed.
The first week after the surgery I ended up getting a fever that I could not get down so I ended up back in the ER and low and behold I had gotten pneumonia from the surgery. I spent another night in the hospital so that they could give me IV antibiotics. This was basically how the month went.
Well now I have been sick twice since then and I am tired of it. I have never been sick this much. I used to get sick maybe once a year. Now I have met that and then some.
Well anyway there is my rant for the week.
