Interest Rates from Hell (Usury) & the Sex Hit List (Usery)

Peace...

I've been working on my next Original blog (Separation of Church & Nation - title taken don't use it, just bc I'm busy don't mean I won't know), but something caught my eye as I was checking my email...I'm taking time out to type this up with a migraine (had more than usual this week), so pardon any lack of "proper" grammar or writing style or anything of the sort, even tho I usually don't give a damn about that anyway...to the point(s)...

I subscribe to http://www.shuddup.com/, per email digests (K.I.M. does a damn good job of making info available to the general public & making it appealing & readable), & came across two blogs that were posted, that made me smh....

Since I have a Daughter, Ill do this one 1st...

The story of how this was made public is @ the bottom of the image, & @ the source link, but you can read those on your own...when I was younger I had what could be called "sex hit lists" too (I'm staying mum on my success percentage), but not until today seeing this did I even fathom that a girl would have one...WRITTEN DOWN!!! Fuck how it was made public, it's the fact that it even existed in the 1st place that bothers me...I accepted a while back that it's normal for females to have as much of a sex drive as a male, nowadays though I have to ask, is what we're seeing REALLY normal??? K.I.M. made some good points re: the way that "society" no longer makes sex as much of a taboo as it used to be, but who's responsible for Our Daughters worldview in the 1st place? PARENTS! & It's apparent that We have a hell of a job! Sheltering a child from the world isn't something I would recommend @ all, I've see that go wrong in all kinds of ways (i.e. ask a preacher's daughter, they were my faves for a while as a teen), but a form of sheltering does need to be done, on a mental level, & that's the shelter of Understanding...Not being afraid or ashamed to talk to a child about sex, what's healthy, what's not, why following the crowd won't be in her best interest, etc. This goes for Our Sons also, a thumbs up from Dad about the girl he just walked up the stairs ain't cool, it's enabling. make sure that they Understand that sex is not what it made out to be on TV, that there's much more to it than the physical aspect, and that there's repercussions for mistakes made from ignorance of sexuality. I could say more, but I don't wanna get preachy...I'll just say be the Best Parent that you can be so that your daughter (or son) doesn't have a list like this stashed away...On 2 da next 1..


Saw this on CNN earlier, but thought it was bullshit (never trust just 1 source of info...)

A credit card...with a 79.9%...interest...rate...What the fuck?

Ok, some if not most of us have heard about the new regulations effective in 2010 that'll "somewhat" restrain banks from fucking people into debt & out of their money using lines of credit (a.k.a. money that doesn't exist). That'll do nothing to curb excessive spenders, but that ain't the issue here...Until those regulations are effective, banks are obviously cashing in while they can...But come on, 79.9% interest on a card with a $300 dollar limit? Somebody @ First Premier/Premier Bankcard is trying REALLY hard to prove a point!!! Don't have much more to say about this other than That shit is ridiculous! And to READ, actually READ the fine print that comes along with those card offers, whether online or through snail mail, you could save urself some pissed-offedness in the long run...

Anyway, I'm out, got more NSAIDs to take...

Peace...Au
