Good job, ja1.

Thanks, Dallas. It looks like the storm is not going to be too bad for them. I haven't been near a tv, so I'm not sure where it is right now.

Then again, he probably still lives at his mommy's house since he's the biggest douchey tool I've ever met in my life.

On a lighter note, the mom thanked me afterwards for sticking up for her and her daughter and I have to say that little girl somehow made my day just by seeing her smile at me after that rotten piece of trash almost made her cry. Wish I could have had more hours on my lunch break to take her and her mother to get ice cream or something to help them forget about the situation.

I hear all the time on the radio and internet about how children today are tormented by bullies for any sort of physical or mental disabilities they possess, and my attitude was always "just suck it up and deal with it; that's life" until today. It made me nearly sick to my stomach to see a dirt bag in his late twenties make such a filthy comment which I should have knocked him straight to the ground for saying to this little girl.

I don't care if she's not the prettiest person you've ever seen; no positive word on this planet will ever be used to describe you as you're a piece of trash who should be thrown in a Cambodian prison and left to rot away. That girl had a heart of gold and NO ONE deserves to be bullied.

You are a good man Ja1myn.

That was a terrible thing for that piece of garbage to do. Major kudos to you for protecting her and letting her know there are good people! It lifted her spirits, no doubt about it.

That's my peeve this week, and how I feel about recent twits about the POTUS from the other twitt, Ann Coulter.

Many states have early voting hours, including Florida. It started Saturday. Actually, we did the Mail-in vote thing..what used to be called absentee balloting. So many people did it without going away that they changed the name.

The other day I was watching tv and up popped one of those political commercials. You know they come in pairs [1st one side, then the other] sometimes even get 3 in a row. So, I changed the channel and what do I see? Political commercial. Change channel quick - another political commercial. I must have flipped through 6 channels and they ALL had political commercials on

We have early voting here in Nevada, but when this nightshifter looks at the hours you can vote, given there's 24,000 nightshift workers in this 24 hours city, why oh why, can't they keep one site open, one night, all night, for our benefit! Yeah, Yeah, Yeah! I know! Majority rules!

Most open at 9am, just when I'm heading for bed!
