Albanians Love Bush and America

Well Surprise, Surprise!!!! There is a country other than the U.S. which loves the U.S. It's kind of amazing really when you think of it. The entire world takes turns being helped by us and being damaged by us to the point that no one really knows when one or the other is happening and the mood is much the same as the actions. Half the time other countries seem to love us and the other half they seem to hate us. Our own people seem to teeter and totter back and forth between love and hate depending on who is in office and other political goings on that may be occurring at any given point in time. In this particular case I wonder if Albanians love America more than Americans do. As stupid as it may seem to support Bush at any time you have to admit it's a bit touching really. I think it's great that somone loves our country so passionately and if I were Bush I would be in love with Albanians after that reception. check out the video.



THE FOLLOWING IS A COPY PASTE OF SOMEONE FROM KOSOVO'S BLOG ENTRY RELATING TO THIS VIDEO: 10th June 2007 A historic date for all Albanians President Bush is given a hero's welcome in Albania. This is the first visit ever of a serving president of USA to visit Albania and will be remembered long time, even though it only lasted eight hours. Albania is the only country where no one has seen any protests against USA or the President. Some even say the Albanians are the most proamerican people on the planet. This is not a hoax. This is a real deal and there is a reason for it. Why Albanians love Americans? Simply because americans are a freedom loving people and they showed this love in practice many times in the history of Albanians (and other small nations) by defending the Albania's right to exist as a state despite the appetite of many world powers and neighboring countries to carve and erase the country from the map. e.g. USA's President Wilson in 1919, at the Paris Peace Conference, was a crucial voice that saved Albania from being ceased as a state. Also in a more recent case, in 1999, it was USA and United Kingdom (leading) that saved kosovar albanians from being extinct by the killing machinery of Serbia. Therefore, the actions of the american people speak very loud about their just intentions towards small nations like Albanians. And remember, Kosovo had no oil worthy of such intervention in 1999! You americans should be proud of your soldiers who risk their own life to bring peace and stability to the world. They need your support! Albania as a state had its ups and downs in relations with USA, but after fall of communism in 1990 (something that America and Bush Senior again helped to get rid off), since then, Albania and albanians are back on track to drive forward a lasting relationship with the american people. We urge the american government to be more involved in Albania and Kosovo, to work closely with Albanians and deter potential involvements of radical islamists who may want to exploit new democracies like ours, by offering the very much needed financial incentives, but with a high price in return. We are aware of this, but we need your help! Albanians are a nation that will long remember your sincere attitude and support in our cause to freedom and democracy. Albanians stand united with Americans in the War on Terror! If you are told different, don't believe them! They are all ill wishers and they'll do anything to convince you otherwise! SUPPORT INDEPENDENCE FOR KOSOVA! TIME IS NOW! http://videoshqip.blogspot.com p.s. If you are an american and you ever thought that America should not get involved or intervene in hot spots around the world, we Kosovar albanians are a living proof to show you that such intervention are needed to bring order and democracy in the world. If you think that by turning your back to the sufferings of other people will make your life better, you are terribly wrong and that makes you a bad person. Sooner or later, the global instability is going to effect your home. War is never ok, but we come from there and had it not been for America's intervention, there would have been hardly anyone to tell you what really happened in Kosova. p.p.s. Bush dropped his watch, time 00:54! As you may notice in the video, Bush's wristwatch fell off at some point, but it has been confirmed by media (VizionPlus TV) that it was found by the bodyguards who handed it over to Lady Bush later on. And you will see in many other videos Bush wearing his watch again while entering Air Force One during departure as he waives back to us. If he had a spare watch, most likely it would have been inside the airplane, therefore, there is no doubt that Bush got his original watch back and everything was accidental. So, don't worry, be happy, time is still ticking on and everything is in Bush's hands! Kosovo will be Independent soon, think of 4th July 2007 as the day of happening, where we can celebrate together with Americans, The Independence Day. p.p.p.s. Bush's wristwatch! Ok, we admit the wristwatch enigma is very humorous. But, all puzzle pieces are falling into places. Watch closely at 01:00 (03:06 if embedded) in this video, President Bush puts his hands behind his back, while a bodyguard standing very close to him behind, takes off his watch. The watch then has been returned by the bodyguard to Laura and Bush got his watch back by the time he climbed the airplane, where you can see visibly while waiving, he's had his watch back! Puzzle solved but yes we've had a good laugh after all!

Paris Isn't So Lovely This Time of Year

Paris Hilton was sent back to jail kicking and screaming. The sheriff where she was serving her sentence reported that she is a mentally sick woman and that he released her on medical grounds because she clearly has problems and needs medical attention. I would agree I believe she suffers from a mental problem seen among many Americans especially those with a particular level of privilege. I think it's called "my parents didn't raise me right" Syndrome. It causes multiple bouts of seemingly uncontrollable sexual escapades made public, bad singing, drunken stage shows, travel around the world with small animals in special purses, public displays of stupidity, public airing of one personal life and problems, kicking and screaming fits when one doesn't get what one wants, crying over spilled milk, complete disregard for others and their property, constant attendance of parties one was not invited to, a substantially diminished vocabulary causing one to only say incomplete sentences while chewing gum, and many many other common symptoms. If you come across anyone displaying these symptoms walk away calmly and get out of camera range so that you are not associated with this person, get out your camera phone and prepare for a You Tube worthy show, call your friends and thank them that they are not that person, and finally if your friend is that person or someone like them jettison them out of your life at the earliest moment possible.

Man in Wheelchair Accidentally Hitches An 80 mile per Hour Ride On A Big Rig

A man in Michigan who is in a wheelchair was at a gas station and accidentally got his chair attached to the front end of a Semi-truck. The driver drove away without noticing and reached speeds of up to 80 miles per hour before pulling off to a truck stop when police were called by passing motorists. The man in the wheelchair was held safely in his chair by the seat belt provided on the chair. I don't know what that man's situation is relating to his bladder but if I was him I would have lost mine even if I had originally had control of it.

Another Dumb-Ass Texan

Gilberto Cantu, a Texas truck driver, has made the bone-head mistake of driving his truck through a tunnel that was too damn short for his truck despite bells-whistles-warning lights-traffic stop lights-police officers ordering him to stop on loud speakers. This guy is definitely a candidate for any upcoming Darwin Awards. What a mess!! The top of his truck was peeled like a sardine can when you open it. Who knows if any of his load was damaged but his truck sure was. Not only did he damage his truck beyond recognition and break cazillions of laws, he also damaged the tunnel forcing it to have to close down. This guy cost all sorts of money for all sorts of people. The taxpayers of the place he messed up will have to pay for that repair, the trucking company he worked for will have to pay hefty fines not to mention replace his truck, and he will likely get fired. Truck drivers every where should be mad that this one made the ranks of dumb butts in the news. Sorry to piss people off by calling Texans dumb asses but it is my duty as an Oklahoman born citizen to insult Texans at every opportunity. Gooooooo SSSooooonnners!!!!!! OOOOOOOOOOO....U!!

Is China Trying To Kill U.S.? Biological Terrorism?

Odd that all the crap that has been causing us healt problems lately has been coming from China. Dogs and cats everywhere dying in mass quantities because of tainted products coming from China. Now other products from China are tainting the U.S. consumers. Now it's toothpaste which was poisoned with something akin to anti-freeze. Check out this New York Times article about the tainted toothpaste. China is blaming Panama for the tainted products, but I figure all are to blame for this one. Whomever uses poison in their products without notifying everyone is definitely liable for something. At the very least people should have a choice of whether or not they want to use poison products. People every day insert botulism into their faces so that they will have a permanently surprised looking face, but at least they know what it is when they do it as weird as they may be for doing it in the first place. Just as Canada and the U.S. are scrambling around trying to stop tainted toothpaste from killing more of their people they intercepted corn gluten from China with more poison in it. What the hell? I'm sorry for taking the offensive leap, but things are looking a little shifty. I mean come on we all know whether we want to admit it over here in America that half the Asians could beat us out in a scholastic meet on any day we choose. We aren't the brightest bulbs when compared with the rest of the planet. Don't try to shoot me full of shit and tell me that the innocent Chinese government didn't know or is somehow stupid enough to think that a little bit of anti-freeze, some plastic products and fertilizer wouldn't make a few people sick and a whole bunch of already sick people dead. If you believe that I have a bridge to sell ya. I think that our government needs to put every inch of every thing coming into the U.S. from China through rigorous testing even if it means we have to pay a bit more for the product. At least if things are tested once a month or something then we won't have as much crap zipping across the borders, and maybe the Chinese will stop trying to kill us. In the mean time people all I have to say is don't eat Chinese made products, and before you dumb rednecks go crazy and extreme please note that I am not saying don't buy products from Chinese Americans or go to Chinese restaurants.

Andrew Card Boo'd Off Stage at UMass Commencement When Getting His "Honorary" Degree

Andrew Card assistant to the Deputy Chief of Staff and to the President was boo'd off stage at the UMASS commencement when the university attempted to award him an honorary degree. Many of the graduates wore "no card" papers pinned to their robes as they walked to their seats. Some had the sign put on the tops of thier hats so the crowd could see them as they sat and listened to the speaches. The crowd began to boo as soon as they started to give the speach about card and many stood up with banners and signs against him. I don't know enough about the guy to say what I think about him and what I don't or what I think about him being boo'd off stage. I do think that if that many of the people attending the commencement (especially the students who actually earned their degrees) disagree with the honorary degree being given then they should wait for another time. After all the graduation ceremony is for the students who earned their degrees and not the rest of us right?

$55,000 Per Speech Speaker For Hire

What in the world is happening when any person at all can command a fee for a speech that is more than a hell of a lot of people make in an entire year? John Edwards spoke to UC Davis students about poverty for $55k. He yaps about financial barriers for college students and then ups the next years salary for them by charging a crap load of money to talk to them about how messed up the world is for it's problems. What an idiot. Why even speak on poverty if you are gonna charge that much to do it? Choose a different topic or charge a different price. I'm all for people making money but geez! $200 or $400 haircuts or whatever it is and now this. No way would I vote for this guy. At the very least he would spend too much of the taxpayers money on pointless crap he could have saved money on.

Death of The Vegans

I'm assuming you have all heard the story that has been on the news lately about the two Vegan parents who had a new baby and ended up killing it via veganism. Just in case you haven't here is an article on the subject. The baby died at 6 weeks old and 3 and 1/2 pounds. My cat weighs more than that. Children are born at an average probably around 6 pounds so I would think someone would have figured out the kid wasn't doing well. Feeding the kid a bunch of things to make you crap and piss isn't going to help matters much I don't suppose either. Where in the hell do people find their logic? Idiots like these people read one little article or a book or two on veganism and nutrition and think they are experts. Humans have to have a balanced diet with proteins, veggies and all sorts of nutrients and hydration. There is a lot more to it than eating nothing with animal products in it, but of course people like this who are attached to fad and status dieting wouldn't be thinking of the fact that their body needs to get particular nutrients in a balanced manner to survive. The sad thing is that this is the 3rd conviction similar to this in the last 4 years.

The Art of Money Making With a Song in Your Heart and a Blog on the Web

Check out this article. It's about a "shaggy" looking 36 year old computer programmer who somehow convinced his wife to bless the idea of him quitting his job and becoming a full time singer and song-writer. Not an easy feat for her when you consider bills, the economy and the price of fuel. He made a rule for himself that he would write and record a song each week and then post it to his blog. He stuck to his goal through all the writer's block and difficulty. He had always had a dream of being a full-time musician and figured this huge challenge would be the way to do it. Those of you who are thinking "big deal" so the guy is a full time musician consider the fact that in order to be a full time anything you have to spend all of your time doing it. This means you can't spend any of your time with some other job which makes you any sort of money or compensation. Not because it's against the rules but simply because there isn't any time. So has he become successful? Who knows? I guess that would be based on what your definition of success is. He has however made a "reasonable middle class living" at it. He pulls in between $3000 and $5000 with the CD's and digital downloads of his music on iTunes. I don't know how that compares to being an average computer programmer but I do know how it compares to what I make. I make between $1500 and $3000 a month doing what I do and only parts of it are fun and none of it is what I have ever dreamed of doing. To me if you can make the minimum it takes you to just live while doing something you've dreamed of doing most of your life then you are successful. I plan to move to LA one day and become an actress or singer. Does that mean I will be famous and have paparazzi chasing me around on the streets? Likely no. It does mean however that little children all over the country will recognize my voice when I speak because I'm the voice of their favorite cartoon character. As long as I make between $3000 and $5000 a month then I'll be happy. So kudos to this guy (Jonathan Coulton) for doing his thing and more kudos for getting published in the New York Times and being the 3rd most linked article on blogs for just today. This means that he has in one day increased his blog traffic from more than 3,000 people daily on average to who knows how many. I have to say I'm a bit jealous that I haven't spent some of the money I blow on eating out every day on some recording equipment and a few guitar lessons. I had the voice lessons in middle school.

Have You Ever Seen A 67 Million Dollar Pair of Pants?

A lawyer in Washington, D.C. has filed a lawsuit against a dry cleaners for a lost pair of trousers. Apparently the pants were his favorite and had sentimental value. He is suing for the pain and suffering of not being able to wear his favorite suit on his first day at work as a judge on the bench. I'm thinking the guy may be soon to see his last day as a judge on the bench. This is how idiots are weeded out. For example, Fred Phelps the idiot lawyer from Kansas who had some crazy lawsuit against a court clerk ended up making a stupid mistake and perjuring himself because he was so attached to his case. I would hate to have this guy as a judge in any case I need to have heard. He has basically sealed his political fate on this one as well. Many attorneys and judges have aspirations of becoming political officials ranging from Senators up to President or Supreme Court Justice. This guy has definitely made it easy for any one who may oppose his election to any position. Part of his lawsuit is for pain and suffering, part is for 10 years worth of the drive to another cleaners further from his home. The cleaners is taking donations toward their defense because there have been so many people call their attorney wanting to help.

MIT Dean of Admissions Resigns After the Discovery of her 28 Year Lie

Wow!? I think this story is interesting in all sorts of areas. Marilee Jones was well known for urging stressed out students competing for elite colleges to calm down. I guess she knew what she was talking about. No need to stress it's not nearly as hard as it seems to get into MIT. She did it with basically no credentials at all. Apparently, she fabricated her resume to get her job at MIT back in the 70's and then never corrected it when applying to other positions within the institution. Because they had all known her for so long and had known that she was capable of upstanding work they didn't check into her resume. Had it not been for the fact that she had written a book which included sections about integrity she'd likely still have a job. The whole situation kinda sucks because apparently she was doing a good job. It really sucks that an institution that works its best to keep up the whole lie that you need a degree in order to do good work and qualify for a job ended up proving the opposite. I'm assuming they gave her a choice between quitting and getting fired. Either way it sucks for all involved. This is what happens when you lie but it just goes to show you that you don't have to have letters behind your name to take care of business. It's just too bad that the rest of the world doesn't realize that fact.

Give Honor to Bert Brady Who Gives Honor to Our Troops

This guy is a pretty cool guy. He lives near the Dallas-Ft. Worth airport and nearly every morning he gets up and goes to the airport to greet the soldiers who are coming home. He is the founder of the Welcome Home Project which is an organization dedicated to making sure that every soldier arriving home at the airport has his very own welcome wagon. ABC News made this guy their person of the week a while back and I think he's a pretty cool guy A very touching story which proves you don't have to be political to be patriotic. No one has to support the war and no one is restricted from supporting the war if they simply support the soldiers who are fighting the war. Guys like Bert Brady and like the members of the Patriot Guard are a part of what makes our country great.

Someone Has Killed Pakistan's Cricket Coach

After losing the world cup competition Bob Woolmer was killed in his hotel room. Authorities say it appears to be manual strangulation. I guess cricket must be a major deal to those who wanted Pakistan to win. Of course, I'm assuming that is the reason he was killed. You never know he could have been kicking one of his players off the team or any other list of theories. What if he's gay and was trying to pick up one of his players to console him after the loss. I don't know anything about cricket or the importance of it. About all I do know is that (if I am remembering correctly) it began in India. Of course we Americans prefer baseball over cricket. Baseball is definitely the lazier version of the two games.

Can You Go Without Toilet Paper For a Year?

Check this article out. It is about a guy who is going through an entire year trying his best to make "No Impact" on the environment. It's a big challenge. In the end of course he has a book deal and there is a person following the whole thing on film so that they can do a documentary as well. I'm sure in the next couple of years we'll see the book and film out on the shelves. I'm interested in seeing the impact on the country with that.

Scientists Have Reversed Homosexuality in Sheep

Ok for those of you who are not like me and did not grow up in a farming community about 1 in 10 (10%) rams (male sheep) has the urge to mount other rams as opposed to ewes (female sheep). In the farming world this is bad because you make less money with these sheep who won't actually reproduce. The more animals you have in your herd that reproduce the more you can sell the more money you make and so on. Because of this study farmers everywhere can make more money and because of this study homosexuals are outraged. They are protesting the sheep's right to be gay if it wants. I am in the middle of this little science experiment because I am gay and from a family of farmers. Here is my point of view. The day a sheep can choose whether or not it wants to be gay is when it meets the following requirements: 1-it becomes human; 2-it pays the bills; 3-it votes etc. You get the point. Sheep aren't human people get over it. They don't have the choices that we do because they can't make decisions. If anything, this study is good it shows that an animal without the brain power to make choices naturally likes the same sex. The place you need to put your protest is when they start trying to allow this type of hormone treatment to be done on humans before those humans are adults and can make their own choices. Do not think that the farming industry (one of the biggest in this country) will be tolerant toward saving gay sheep at the expense of their already small pocket books. Please people try to keep your animal rights protests to physical cruelty issues and let farmers make their money until a sheep walks up to you and tells you it pays taxes and deserves some rights, And in the mean time keep up the good work fighting for Human Gay Rights and Equality.

James Brown Dies

Soul star James Brown died early Christmas morning in Atlanta,GA at age 73. His music is some of the most widely sampled music which is a compliment to him and a sad lack of originality on the part of the samplers. I will always remember him as the singer whom hardly anyone could understand when he spoke yet miraculously was completely understood in song. Much like Bob Dillon who is the opposite and can be understood when speaking but definitely not by all when singing.



I wonder how many of these kids' parents hated it that they loved James Brown music? And I wonder what it must have been like to be a black man performing in a place where black people weren't allowed to spectate the performance?

Who Americans Are And What They Do, In Census Data

Check out this article. Information from the census report shows all kinds of good info. Some examples: Americans drank more than 23 gallons each of bottled water almost 10 times as much as in 1980 and finally surpassing themselves in how much beer they drink. Americans are still the fattest people on the entire planet. Men who have had same sex encounters is around 6% (not counting the homosexual population) and women who have had same sex encounters is around 11% (not counting the homosexual population). American Indians are most likely to be told they have a learning disability. More people are injured by wheelchairs than lawn mowers. Bicycles are involved in more accidents than any other consumer product but weirdly enough beds rank a close second. Nevada still remains with the highest divorce rate with Arkansas trailing close behind.

Male Circumcision "Cuts" HIV Risk

Two different studies show that circumcision helps to reduce the conracting of HIV. Apparently foreskin cells are more vulnerable to HIV infection. One of the studies showed a 53% reduction of new infection and the other showed a 48% reduction. A similar study last year showed 60% reduction of new infection among men who had been circumcised. Apparently they felt as if the study results were so amazing that they stopped in the middle of it and offered circumcision to the control group of men. They felt it would be unethical if they didn't notify the others in the study who were participating as controls.
