Favorite Cookies
I have great memories of cookies I ate as a child. One of my all time favorites was called Gauchos by Burry Foods. It was an oatmeal cookie with a peanut butter filling. I have found that the Girl Scouts are putting out a cookie that is almost identical in look and taste.
Burry Foods must have had me in mind when they were baking, because I have fond memories of two of their other products, Scooter Pies and Fudge Town cookies. Scooter Pies were sort of two graham crackers sandwiched together with marshmallow and covered in very cheap chocolate. Fudge Towns were chocolate cookies with a chocolate middle. I used to love pushing the chocolate out with my pinkie from the cookie’s center hole.
And so my weight gain began!
Now to find some Girls Scouts!
John Edwards Should Drop Out
John Edwards is one of my favorite presidential candidates, but I feel he is making a terrible mistake. I think he should take this time to spend every moment with his dying wife, Elizabeth, not to mention his three children. The emotional support that the whole family needs to give one another during this crisis is a full time job. How can he possibly be there for his family while running for the presidency? I think this shows he lacks true judgement and he has lost a lot of my respect.

Happy Birthday Rosie O’Donnell!
The Crying American Idol Girl
Please! Someone give that girl a Prozac! The poor thing is miserable! I cry when I hear Sanjaya too, but she was so sad!
Dancing with the Stars
I saw my first episode of Dancing with the Stars last night. It was O.K., but I don’t think I will make it a habit. The pop music didn’t seem to match up well with the performers. I don’t know if it was their performances or if it was the music. They just didn’t seem on the beat to me. I think music without vocals would be a better choice anyway.
Taxes, Taxes
I haven’t written anything for a bit because I have been bogged down in taxes! I have been getting my mother’s ready, my father’s trust, and mine. I am still not done. Figuring out capital gains is such a pain, especially if you sold a mutual fund that keeps reinvesting. The Scudder fund I sold doesn’t automatically calculate them for you as I hear some fund companies do now. It would be well worth it to find out which ones do before you buy into one. I need an aspirin!
General Peter Pace is Loser of the Week
General Peter Pace says that gays shouldn’t be in the military because homosexuality is immoral. How is that a valid argument? What happened to separation of church and state? Has he forgotten that gays are risking their lives each and every day in the military?
General Peter Pace is our Loser of the Week.
NAACP is Loser of the Week
A recent press release from the NAACP states that: “The NACCP Image Awards honors projects and individuals that promote diversity in the arts in television, recording, literature and motion pictures.” Recent Image Award Winner, Isaiah Washington, was promoting diversity when he called a fellow Grey’s Anatomy castmate a “faggot” and then lied that he said it twice on television?
The NAACP is my Loser of the Week.
My CompUSA Store is Closing!
I am in mourning. CompUSA is closing 6 of it’s 7 Massachusetts stores. The only store left is far from me. While their prices weren’t always that great, I have spent many hours looking for the next gadget or accessory at CompUSA stores near me. I love BestBuy, but they don’t always have that cable or hard drive that you just have to have today. This truly is horrible news for someone who suffers from absolutely no delay in gratification! Where am I to shop now in Massachusetts? I guess I will be paying for overnight shipping from Newegg!
