ITS BEEN A WHILE-
Ok I never said that I was good at keeping up.
The birthday thing went rather well. I had to fight with where we were going to go. The weather was cold and windy so the city was off. Nothing like walking the streets with the wind slicing into your bones from the avenues.
We or should I say I decided to go to Medieval times. The parents and my aunt had never been there so why not. I enjoyed going there several years back for a friends birthday. I told them they will enjoy it, and they really did. When we got there, their jaws dropped and they acted like 12 year olds. My father and I did a lot of drinking over priced beer- but always a pleasure hanging with pops. My aunt caught a flower from our knight. She was happy. When we left my father and I were a bit tipsy so my mother drove. She was reluctant because the last time she was on the garden state parkway she was in an accident. But she did a great job of getting us home in one piece. We stayed in Nyack for the rest of the weekend and then they went home. It was fun- Sasha was in bed all weekend with a cold, so I didn’t see too much of him.

ONLY IN AMERICA CAN YOU SEE SUCH NONSENCE:

Feb. 28, 2006 - As Anna Nicole Smith brought her claim for the fortune of her late husband, Texas billionaire J. Howard Marshall II, to the United States Supreme Court, a broad-based coalition of golddiggers and gigolos marched on Washington to show their support for the former Playboy playmate.
The National Association of Golddiggers and Gigolos, an organization that boasts a membership of over 50,000, organized a rally to demonstrate their solidarity with one of their most celebrated peers.
Smith’s quest for her fair share of Marshall’s billions might not seem like a popular cause, but to the hundreds of golddiggers and gigolos who appeared on the steps of the nation’s highest court today, it is a matter of survival.
Cristall Klujian, a former stripper who now works as a full-time golddigger, says that the Smith case “could very well determine whether golddigging is a viable occupation in the United States of America.”
“To the outside world, being a golddigger may seem like easy money,” Klujian said. “I can tell you, as someone who has gone on vacations with wealthy boyfriends and laughed at their lame jokes, this is hard work.”
Davis Logsdon, a former exotic dancer who has worked as a gigolo for the past 10 years, echoed Klujian’s sentiments: “If the United States Supreme Court does not stand up for the rights of American gigolos, we may see our jobs continue to be outsourced to France.”
Elsewhere, in the aftermath of the Dick Cheney hunting accident and the Dubai ports deal, the White House announced a one-day moratorium on doing anything idiotic.
