I thought about posting these stories on the Daily Press web site, but I found that just writing them down was good enough. It would have been an epic way to quit this job though.
White House - President Barak Obama encouraged the nation to pray for dead presidents, during a speech in honor of President’s day.
“I know all you folks out there and ya’ll are pretty much depending on me to fix this stuff”, Obama said.
“However, most of you know that there ain’t all that much I can do to control the economy, make my buddy Rahm behave himself or even pull my own head out of my posterior. All you niggas out there aught to stop whining about what I’m doing or what I’m not and just start praying fo Dead Presidents.”
The nation was almost left speechless after the display of such honesty, especially as it was coming from a politician.
Even the conservative pundit Glen Beck had to give the President some “props”.
“All I can say is wow, America. This is the kind of fair and balanced reporting that we wish we could do here on Fox News, unfortunately most of us have been unable to remove our heads from our rear ends as well, which has basically led to a lot of crap coming out of people’s mouths a whole heck of a lot.”, Beck said.
Victorville - Authorities are searching for an area man, whom they consider armed and extremely dangerous.
Matthew Joel Nabors, 30, was last seen leaving the office of the Daily Press in a blue Toyota Matrix. The vehicle does not belong to him.
He is described as a pink male human, 250 pounds with blonde hair, blue eyes and a flair for the dramatic.
It is unknown where he is heading but authorities encourage anyone who spots him to call 911.
“That boy ain’t right.” according to his Psychoanalyst Dr. Nick Arthur.
It is believed that a long brewing argument with his fiancé Heather Bowman has caused him to go “over the edge”, according to a witness who asked to remain anonymous for fear of his safety.
Authorities are particularly concerned as Mr. Nabors is known to associate with some pretty rough characters.
A post on facebook by one of his friends reads as follows: “If I didn't have plans for the day already I would bring my pile of guns and go shooting with you.”
When asked for comment about his future plans Matthew stated simply, “Well now it's Sunday and I "have" to go to work. FML.”

- Sarah AlvaradoYeah she could have handled it differently but what's more annoying than being in a place that's reserved for quiet study and being interrupted by someone, anyone talking on a cell phone! Its rude and. Obnoxious no matter what race you are.... People have lost common sense, courtesy and respect for others.
I'm not saying the girl isn't an idiot. I'm just saying I can see how people being and on their cell phone in the library, or any public place for that matter, can be annoying.See More17 hours ago · · 1 personLoading... - Sarah Alvarado I teach at vvc and the very first day of class I STRESS NO CELL PHONE usage during class!

- Sarah Alvarado Yosten- I understand that! And yes I probably would be trying to get ahold of them too, but I sure as hell wouldn't share it with the rest of the 'library'.
Not trying to be insensitive or side with the bimbo....17 hours ago · · 1 personLoading... - Sharon ClevelandI gotta say I do have family and friends in Japan, who are thankfully safe and I agree. I was going nuts trying to get a hold of them. And think there are exceptions to the rule. That was an extreme circumstance. What happened last week isn...'t something that happens every day, and I think should could have tried to be a little more understanding and human about it. Not to mention, the cell phone thing was such a small part of the bigger picture of her rant. She was just flat out racist and there was NO excuse for the things she said. Did she really expect some one to turn around and say,"I'm so sorry, my aunt just died, I didn't mean to interrupt your studying for finals."See More17 hours ago · · 1 personLoading...

- Martial HaprovI agree with portions of everything here. I was mostly shocked at the woman's lack of naivety in her comments. @Alvarado- I agree, it's certainly more than any one specific culture that not only displays obnoxious behavior but just "annoys"... in general. And you're right, everyone is annoyed by something, culturally-biased or not. @Reneh- I agree with the P.C. filters being severely detrimental to honesty and sincerity, but there not only is a time and a place, but there must have been a more effective way to communicate an opinion such as being annoyed by someone talking loudly on a cell phone in a library than what she delivered in this video. @Karen- Troll is a funny word.

Lynn De St Germainthe tragedy in Japan=so sad, loved ones panicked and trying to find out info = understandable, idiot trying to capitalize on tragedy and have her 15 minutes of "charlie sheen like" fame = U.S.E.L.E.S.S. (and so not "winning") LOL................ ever notice when a brainless idiot speaks you not only can't make sense of what they are saying, but it is also hard to figure out exactly what the point is, what exactly are they "trying" to be literate about? Maybe she should not have done that after her triple shift at hooters!!!See Moreabout an hour ago · · 2 peopleLoading...- Karen Yosten You know all that bitch wanted was to be some youtube sensation and it completely bit her in the ass.4 minutes ago ·
Bea ValenzuelaLast week was a unique situation which has nothing to do with political correctness, it has to do with sensitivity. She herself brought up the tsunami making reference to the tragedy in Japan so she was specifically talking about those Asia...ns and even with that she was still insensitive enough to make those remarks.
Like Yosten said, if there was a major disaster where my family is and I got a call in the middle of church, God would understand and I would answer the phone.

computers suck
I can get a lot done with a working computer. Sadly my main comp has been acting up for awhile now, and from what I can tell (after several hours of trouble shooting and research) I need a windows xp disk to fix my troubles. Naturally I doubt there is one I have access to. I guess I have to seek out help on this issue, and when I get my stuff back up and running I'll post something else.
Using my folks computer I got a bare bones site up to sell my photos

Sorry to anyone still waiting on a video. excuses aside, I love shooting the stuff way more than editing, and now I have hours of stuff to wade through, edit and get out to all the right people. Serenity now!
