Governor Murkowski's reinstatement of aerial wolf hunting in Alaska means heightened slaughter in a state that already provides virtually no protection for wolves. Hunting and trapping have already annihilated more than 7,000 wolves between 1996 and 2002 - and possibly even twice that number if unreported harvests are accounted for. Nearly 7,500 wolves have been killed in just the past five years!
Land and shoot hunting, when hunters in airplanes chase wolves to the point of exhaustion and then shoot them when they are too tired to escape, threatens wolves even more. It is unconscionable that Alaska's government has assured the senseless and easy murder of perhaps thousands more wolves.
Land and shoot laws are an obvious move to mollify disgruntled hunting interests which claim wolves are reducing moose and caribou herds. Never mind the facts, that larger prey species elude wolves up to 97 per cent of the time and that wolves, by removing the sick, weak, inferior and old members of their prey species, actually strengthen those gene pools.
This new, heightened slaughter of wolves via aerial methods is a sickening return to the senseless, barbaric practices begun in Alaska prior to statehood and continued thereafter, this time with Governor Murkowski's blessing. It is time for the governor to do the right thing - stop the slaughter.

If you wish to help even more, adopt a wolf. Your wolf sponsorship will help support ongoing efforts to help protect these beautiful creatures: http://www.care2.com/go/z/11612

Just wanted to throw in a quick update.
Me and my sister just got done playing Intelevision. Can you believe that? It's so old and whatnot.
I remember when I use to adore those game and now they're like ... so boring.
They used to sell for 30 bucks or so my rents tell me. My bought one off of Ebay for 88 cents.
I wonder if it will even work when it gets here.
Well, not much of a post, but I'm in need of a cigarette. Later. |

I am so sick and tired of dealing with my nephew. I want to tell my sister to go and get her own fucking house if she isn't going to do anything about the way he acts so the rest of us won't have to put up with it but I know she'll just tell me to do the same.
But I think I'm about to do that anyway. Me, John and Todd are going to look at apartments next week. Hopefully we'll find one that we can all agree on.
John is also coming by and we're going to play Smackdown on his PS2.
Hopefully it'll help get some of this shit off of my mind.
Like work, home, work, home that's all I see. I need to get out more but I just don't have the time.
Well, I need to go to bed because I have to be at work at noon. |

Happy birthday to invisibleangel. *hugs*
It's been a while since I posted. Not much going on except a new crush in my life. I wrote about him in my Livejournal a lot, but nothing has happened between me and him yet besides a lot of flirting. That's pretty much it.
Speaking of work it's going great. I'm going to be asking for full time soon. Kevin said he was going to. Which will prolly mean he'll get it since he's a guy and no one really wants a girl on the stock crew anyway.
Well, I'm out. Later :) |

| The man's rules for women. |
|

mood:  amused

The Rules....this time by Men. We always hear "the rules" from the female side. Now here are the rules from the male side. These are our rules! Please note ... these are all numbered "1" ON PURPOSE!
1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
1. Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if we can find the perfect present yet again!
1. Sometimes we are not thinking about you. Live with it.
1. Sunday = sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.
1. Don't cut your hair. Ever. Long hair is always more attractive than short hair. One of the big reasons guys fear getting married is that married women always cut their hair, and by then you're stuck with her.
1. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.
1. Crying is blackmail.
1. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!
1. We don't remember dates. Mark birthdays and anniversaries on a calendar. Remind us frequently beforehand.
1. Most guys own three pairs of shoes - tops. What makes you think we'd be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with your dress?
1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
1. A headache that last for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
1. Check your oil! Please.
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.
1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.
1. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We refuse to answer.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.
1. Let us ogle. We are going to look anyway; it's genetic.
1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and neither do we.
1. The relationship is never going to be like it was the first two months we were going out. Get over it. And quit whining to your girlfriends.
1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
1. We are not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.
1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.
1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer you don't want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine. Really.
1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as navel lint, the shotgun formation, or monster trucks.
1. You have enough clothes.
1. You have too many shoes.
1. Foreign films are best left to foreigners. (Unless it's Bruce Lee or some war flick where it doesn't really matter what the hell they're saying anyway.)
1. It is neither in your best interest or ours to take the quiz together. No, it doesn't matter which quiz.
1. BEER is as exciting for us as handbags are for you.
1. Thank you for reading this; Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight, but did you know we really don't mind that, it's like camping.
1. I'm in shape. ROUND is a shape. |

LJ is doing some kind of "update" so I'll just say screw it and write here. Haven't done so in a while.
After a stressful night I decided to bake a cake. Red Velvet to be exact. Of course the cake didn't hold out long enough for me to put the icing on it. It looks like shit, but it's edible.
I also washed my uniforms today. I love working at my job. My managers are so extremely hot. Sometimes I even forget my obsession with Orlando Bloom when I'm around them.
Hard to imagine isn't it?
Well, I'm getting pretty tired. I'm going to go to bed now. Later. |

Been real busy. You know, I thought more people would join deadjournal since you need a code on livejournal, but apparently codes are being given out left and right by paid members that are being very generous. Kinda cool really but at the same time I want to see DJ be more active too.
Sorry, just mindless rambling. Things have been kinda hectic around here. My job is going great minus my feet killing me at the end of the day and occassionally my boss yelling at me for certain screw ups.
I got really drunk the other night which was not cool at all because the next day I had to work. Talk about a hangover. I was so happy to be home. *sigh* I'm getting quite tired. I know it's in the morning, but I was up all night. My sleeping scheadule is fucked.

I just found out that my ex brother in law threw away a shit load of my nephew's toys. He was yelling at Dylan and told him to pick up his toys or he would get rid of him.
What kind of bullshit is that? He's only 3 years old! You don't do that to a kid. He's not being a dad he's being a fucking bully! |

I am so tired and so mad right now. My nephew is being a little shit. We're trying to watch a movie and he will not shut the fuck up. Melissa won't tell him anything she just ingores him but as for me I can barely hear the movie. His friend Devan is over here too (the same kid that gave me trouble at school only he was behaving himself). Anyway, I'm sick and trying to get better and Melissa volunteers to bring all these sick kids to our house.
Melissa better learn to control Dylan or she can get the fuck out. This is my house too and I don't have to put up with the bullshit.
Anyway, I saw this in a livejournal on Elijah Wood. I doubt it's true but you never know.
LORD OF THE RINGS star ELIJAH WOOD flew into a rage during a night out with a friend when he was photographed in a gay bar.
The actor, who played FRODO BAGGINS in the hit film, ran after the fan who took his shot while he was out drinking in West Hollywood's gay district, known as Boys Town.
Wood demanded the upset fan destroy the film or he would smash the camera. The gay fan reluctantly handed over the film.
