School Lunch Nightmares!

 To say school lunches in America are a horror show. I am talking about Rob Zombie level here. I am going to include two articles below on this issue. I will also include some easy fixes that may not require a microwave as some schools don’t have them. 


First, let’s look at the articles. This first article is originally from 2013 however, it’s still relevant. The lunches Maria Godoy featured were horror show ready. Something that looks like ground beef but not really. The pizza looks awful. I can remember the pizzas I had as a kid in school, yum. Taco Surprise was terrible. I guess the surprise will be if  you don’t get sick. Dear God, it can’t get any worst! 


Except it does. According to the second article details a misadventure involving raw chicken being served to kids at a school. Yeah! Hello 911 we have a problem. Was this a one time deal? NOPE! According to this article it’s an on going problem. The lunches at Soviet schools are far better than we have here. 


Here’s the solution: send your child(ren) to school with a lunch. Of course, you will have to find out what reasonable limits you will be operating under. I say reasonable limits because some schools are allowing teachers to go through little Johnny’s lunch bag and if there are chips or cookies, well that’s not allowed. The teacher has permission from the school to toss them. Also, food allergies are something we have to consider. Now you understand why people homeschool their kids. I do.

UN Legitimate and Two Illegitimate Speakers

This was a freakshow of a week…. I actually did a whole layout here and accidentally deleted it. OMG. I realize this week was crazy, but holy shit! This is what it did. So here’s a quick recap before I have a completely psychotic break.  Trump entered the UN building with the same level of disaster he entered the world with. The safety feature that will prevent someone carrying a ‘nasty surprise’ from entering the top level of the escalator. That still leaves the elevators. The teleprompter stopped working. That was it, there’s a conspiracy. He did what any brain-dead American would do: whine and bitch. His almost hour-long tirade ended by telling other nations they will go to hell. I guess there will be a family reunion.  Netanyahu went to speak, and it’s a good thing that there were influencers paid to be there; otherwise, why on earth would anybody subject themselves to Netanyahu’s incoherent nonsense after Trump is beyond me. Netenhahu finished last week by threatening Chi...

Who is Ahmed al-Sharaa?

  Ahmed was born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Wait! What was that???? Born in Saudi Arabia…. How the hell did he get to be president of Syria? A country that he isn’t even a citizen of? That is as insane as Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov announcing he is going to be the president of America. Actually, I would welcome that. Since he is obviously smarter than any American Political puppet. At least we would be able to have our Christian values protected. There wouldn’t be an abortion clinic on every city block. And the sexualization of children would come to a dead stop. Veterans would be better cared for under Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. However, that will never happen, but I think you get how insane that is. I found that you have to be a natural-born citizen of Syria to be president of Syria.  Ahmed al-Sharaa was a member of Al Qaeda. You remember the pack of terrorists who attacked us on 9/11/. My question is, why is Al-Qaeda allowed to exist if they were involved in 9/11? ...

Feeling Ignored

  I didn't mean to ignore this site. I have been busy with the government shutdown, and I have to say, what a freak show. Let's break this down: 1. There is a budget. Once it's clear that we won't tolerate the freak show any longer, the budget will be put in front of us. Of course, it won't have an accurate date. The date it was actually signed.  2. What are we currently focused on? The shutdown. We are looking at the fact that Israel is attacking Iran, again, for having the very same thing they have: nuclear weapons. We also have nuclear weapons in America. We also have a nasty habit of using weapons of mass destruction. Dioxin was used in Vietnam; it was later called Agent Orange.  3. We are no longer demanding the release of the Epstein and Maxwell files. Of course, by the end of October, I am sure this will be in the headline again because one of the other party will bring it up.  4. Prices. The lamestream media isn't talking about the real prices. I went ye...
