The upper levels are difficult enough to keep you playing for a while. It's a simple family-friendly game.
Gradually degenerating into ignorance and complacency.

ok ... I stand corrected
I read through the cheerleaders condition and found that it may impact breast feeding. I am more aware, wiser. It may not have been merely a cosmetic vanity thing.
I therefore was wrong. I guess I should feel sorry, but I'm wrong and I was wrong to be so quick to judge.

vanity brings death
I could be sympathetic, but I'm not in this case. A teen girl who was "going to be a doctor" opted for breast surgery. So, was there a problem with the breasts ... no. She apparently, being a cheerleader, had that idea that she didn't have good enough bounce. So, she wanted perfect boobs. It is a vanity thing. Another sad note is that doctors are ready and willing to alter breasts of kids. She was a teen, who knows how her life would have changed -- and her bust line, with age. What a waste! Killed by vanity.
or insecurity, but it was to have "better breasts" for ...
that's right, nothing. It would not have made her more capable of lactating, it was likely for looks.

Surf's Up
I watched this movie and my attention was not up, not raised, not peeked. It was a boring movie. It had simple enough metaphors and morals: "do your best", "keep your friends", "sometimes just have fun and don't be competitive". I won't watch this this twice.

FWCS decides to fire a child seducer. Huh... that makes sense. He must have understood the message to be, "no child's behind left", right?

cutting
No ... not getting attention, but intentional disaster. Ending ... ending, I like someone and she has done something few have done --- moved me, like lifting a mountain. I persist on not having emotions, robotic and unhappy emo. Still, she pushed, moved and in subtle moves made me care. I met her for lunch ... just friends, how we will be.
To touch her now is to hurt, panicked frenzied pain of my own creation. It was wrong and now I suffer my chosen Hell of emotion -- fire licks my feet, anchors weigh down my down-turned face. I risked a game and though I liked playing, I had to let her go -- she was never, ever mine.
Her birthday gifts to me sent a painful reminder of what might have been ... she, I, us, we, couple
now, friends.
I miss that, her, us, but it was my fault for it should not have been. No pity, no sympathy, just lamenting the end.

Tips from other schools
Well, while FWCS deliberates whether they should fire a child-seducing assistant principal, this school outright fires a teacher for a different offense. I still don't understand why FWCS would wait to fire the punk.
FWCS you are in the wrong.

4,000
Well. I know that I have written and spoken ill of the government and the causes to go to war and the war itself, but when you have a "news" story about 4,000 lives being lost ... move on Jack. I agree, ultimately, you don't want your military to die, but face it -- military personnel die. It has been now six years now ... 4,000 lives lost. As a whole, that isn't significant considering the muslim sympathizer in the military who grenaded his own platoon. Take out these lives and we haven't reached 4,000. I would suggest that he demonstrated what protesters don't accept. There are people who are militant and crazy and will kill without regard.
I don't support the position of WMD and Hussein's ties to Osama, but ... we are there and the government isn't stable yet. In fact, the local areas are either more militant and stable or in chaos now. Withdrawing forces would not "embolden" the enemy as stated, but rather either solidify the resistance or crush it. Once crushed ... it wouldn't resurface for a long, long time -- too late to save people.
The 4,000 number tragedy might be hailed by those who believe that 300 like the movie could have done the job in Afghanistan and Iraq. I guess they didn't remember history in that the Nazi blitzkreig worked, but they fell. Normandy stayed at a terrible price, but ... it was with time and people that made it happen. Sad to write, but we have to stay in some areas to make it work.
4,000 is just a number and a small one statistically for the number deployed, stayed, engaged and the time being there. It is a low number.

Enchanted
This Disney movie was OK, but not stellar. It had some re-watchability, but wasn't packed with songs. It had a reasonable plot, funny characters (two-dimensional to reality in more ways than one), with a happy ending. A life irony was Timothy Spall aka Peter Pettigrew battled a mouse. So, Mark Williams who was in 101 Dalmatians goes to Harry Potter and Timothy from Harry Potter to Disney, isn't that ironic? OK, no it isn't, just a useless factoid.
I hope they do more of these movies, Enchanted, rather than Wizard of Oz, poorly done with a singer who has raunchy lyrics or sequel three to a once-good classic movie. I don't want to know about (Love) Flubber No. 9 or Mulan: From Russia With Love or Son of a Stitch! (Lilo's Day) the like.
I suggest that you would like it if you generally like Disney movies. I wouldn't buy it, but might watch it again.

Pay now ... get ripped off now
TV EXTRAS, ACTORS, MODELS/ NO EXP. REQ'D/ $500+DAY
Company: $500 PLUS PER DAY/ MOVIE EXTRAS NEEDED
Well, I first looked on the net to see if it was a scam. I also spoke with Jason as did this person. When I said I wasn't interested in paying anything upfront, he hung up immediately. You get the privilege of paying $40 up front. I didn't go for it.

Bee Movie
Aptly named for it was all about bees and it wasn't an "A" movie. I'm not sure that I would give it a B, maybe a C. I wouldn't buy it. It had a lot of potential, but I don't think it exploited much of the potential it had.

"Hello Charlie" by Charles Hess and Davin Seay
The book was written by one of the self-proclaimed "Apple Dumpling Gang" of cold case file detectives. The book has an awkward format. Granted, unlike many other true crime novels, it details quite a bit of the backgrounds of the investigators. The bulk of the book is rather rambling. The useful part of this book is simple, people are stupid.
While difficult to follow, the suspect at the beginning of the book is arrested on murder charges. The investigators are doing background checks on him, which ties him to other murders. They interviewed people who knew the convict (and suspect). They didn't notice anything peculiar though he liked to destroy things. There weren't any signs, but he liked fire. He never set off any red flags, but he did robbery and killed pets nailing them to the wall to scare the occupants. He wasn't violent but punched walls and choked his wives. He showed no strange sexual fantasies, but favored little girls and tried to have sex with his male partner in crime who wasn't gay. He didn't do much serious crime, but stole vehicles, did armed robbery and was a drug dealer (trafficker by definition). He also murdered, but I detailing the other crimes and signs that clearly red flagged him as evil and bad.
Not guilty?
So, had anyone had a little mind. much of his violence and crime could have been prevented before it happened. I walk away from this book knowing that police work is made even harder when the officers have to talk with completely stupid people.
+ also, term "mass murderer" is inaccurate, as he was a serial murderer, not mass murderer by definition

Indiana Spring
What is it like, you might wonder. New York has snow, ice, snow, and sun. Last night Indiana has ice, rain, snow, and thunderstorms. I found my car frozen shut and by noon, snow had melted away much of what was "Winter signs". I expect Indiana to be hit with tornadoes this year, I hope they are prepared.

So that things are clear here
I should understand that an assistant principal who seduces a child may lose his job? Huh. I wonder why people may be moving out of the district then. I would want the school to be fairly prompt with their actions, not him-hawing about the whole thing. Well, he may be innocent of the charges despite claiming guilt. What a farce! I suppose that FWCS won't see the consequences of a slow action on their part. I would not feel safe sending my kids to a school where they may or may not fire a man who seduces students (in this case high schoolers.

not King
I saw a little blurb comparing Obama to Dr. Martin Luther King. Failing to think of another analogy, an American Bald Eagle (King) can't be compared to a cowbird by many means. Obama is not King by any measure. Dr. Martin Luther King was a unifier who sought the equality of all persons. I don't remember him ending speeches with, "looking forward to your vote this fall" or the use of "change" as an article like "the". It would help if Obama mentioned what his plans are, rather than the typical ...
I have plans
We need change
I am not like Hillary
I'm Black and I'm proud
What I won't remind you is that I'm new to all of this, have made some poor relationships along the way with butting heads, so if I were to "win" the Presidency, I would indeed be ostracized for a number of reasons, some of which are the course of me pushing away people abruptly. I am not a uniter, and I don't walk the talk and don't walk the walk.

Deuce Bigalo
European adventure ... not so good. I think it was a typical sequel being not as good as the first one. It had very few funny parts. I'm not really sure who is supposed to laugh at the drug jokes like Deuce getting high on spiked cake.
