What is a pet peeve?
Answer:
It's your favorite minor complaint. It's when someone, or somethings, actions really irritate you and you just can't stand it. It could be irrational, and not even annoy anybody else. It can be different for anyone. For example, I hate it when a person goes to turn while driving, and they don't turn on their blinker. It is something small that bothers you that other people are not bothered by. And also when u do something u really like and u cant help but To do it.


We all have our pet peeves I'm sure, but I think I have a bit too many. I wonder what that says about me? Do I offend easily? Does everything bother me? Or everyone bother me? I know one thing for certain #1 There are definitely some morons that should not be allowed on our roads that we drive on. #2 People should not be allowed to wear their pajamas in public # 3 people should be made to wear deodorant especially in elevators. But those are just a couple of my pet peeves, and I definitely could write a book of the things in this world that really piss me off... But I won't get into that right now. So I will have one pet peeve every week just so were up to speed to what's going on in my head and I'm sure you all out there share the same feelings as I.

Today we will talk about Violet's pet peeve #1

As I was driving out today there was a lifted truck driving in front of me. Now this would not have been no big deal to me, but what really offended me was the fact that this truck had something hanging from it at the bottom by the back bumper. And it was a metal pair of balls!
And when I thought it couldn't get any worse the license plate read: "Don't just stroke it Ram it"
I mean "really"? What kind of people do these things? Are they that backwards? And how gross, a mans privates? On their vehicle, how utterly discussing! Come on guys do you really think that's manly?
Yes, the better to easily identify trashy people. Because these things are just disgusting. Every bit as disgusting as a giant plastic vagina would be hanging from your bumper.
Are men wishing...
Hell…even my balls are bigger.?.Are they trying to compensate for ???

I know I'm not the only one who finds this offensive. I found this interesting story about a woman, yes A Woman going to court over plastic testicles hanging from her truck. What is happening to our world? To our people?

Here is the link read it for yourself....

IPad Mini? Vs ipad3

I have been reading so many reviews about the new iPad mini that I have definitely come to a conclusion, that I did it right this time by choosing the iPad 3.
When I first heard about the iPad mini It struct me that wow! I want one, and then the price was pretty decent too. Then it turned out that it didn't even come with the wonderful retina display which I so adore with my IPad. Especially when I experienced first hand with my dear old first generation IPad. So for once I think, Or should I say yes! I did it right. "I'm sticking with my IPad 3". IPad mini sorry not for me....

Here's one of the reviews I found if your interested ...you decide...

Apple iPod touch 5

Still in the box


Out of the box

-it's so pretty isn't it?


Well I finally received my new iPod touch 5!
I tried looking everywhere even the apple store but they sold out so fast and yes it did come out a week earlier which I never knew but that's o.k. I finally got it from the online site of Walmart yesterday.
One thing for sure the apple store was no help to me their customer service sucks! They only had one model left it was the 64 gb in yellow, no thank you.
I really wanted in in pink. And paying over $300 was as high I was going to spend. I actually sold my iPod touch 4 so that helped quite a Lott.
I was so excited I was up all night till 1:00 am downloading music....
I cannot believe the camera is so amazing it has a flash for shooting pictures at night. And it's so thin and light. And the picture quality is excellent much bigger than the older model. My only complain is "I really need a case" I am so anal with all my electronics I don't want it to get scratched. I already know what cover I want it's a clear hard case so you can see the prettiness of the pink.

Good news!

My cat does not have cancer...



The huge lump that was on my cat eventually went away I am so happy and relieved.
I really never found out what it was but it sure worried me to death. This cat sleeps, eats and is just my best friend. I have never owned a cat that remains so loyal to me he follows me everywhere and fetches toys like a dog and is so smart. My cat stalks dogs when they pass our home it really frightens other people when they walk they're dogs. He doesn't bother our dog though. He's so affectionate and just really the best cat in the world!
I don't know what I would do if anything happened to him...
So when this ugly huge bump appeared I was thinking the worse. My cat is back to his feisty self...

Huge lump on my cat...

I feel so bad my conscience is killing me a little. I found this huge lump on my cats right leg on Friday and I have no idea what it is. I've gone on the net to see if other people have had this same problem and i really haven't found out much. I thought maybe it was a black widow bite or some kind of bug bite. It feels like its filled with fluid. My husband decided to try to pierce it with a needle but its skin was too thick and my cat kind of cried. My cat is showing no signs of illness he's still the ornery cat that he always is... I think I will wait and see a couple more days...and decide to visit the vet. My sister said she took her cat to the vet because it had an ear infection and that visit cost her $300
I really don't need that right now...

Real-life-hero-man-saves-six-year-old-girl-from-kidnapper

328 days ago...
With all of the horrifying news this summer, from the senseless murder of Caylee Anthony to the unfathomable Leiby Kletzky abduction and murder, we’re all hugging our kids that much tighter – and we’re beginning to lose our faith in humanity during those lie-awake-at-night moments. But this chilling story about a man who saves his six-year-old neighbor from her deranged kidnapper makes me believe once again that there are good people out there (or, in this case, true heroes).
Albuquerque, New Mexico dad Antonio Diaz Chacon was doing laundry at a relative’s home down the street from his own house when he saw a girl being thrown into a van. Another neighbor yelled out, “Let the child go!” but it was too late. Instinctively, Diaz Chacon hopped into his pickup truck and chased the van for 15 minutes through a series of neighborhoods until the van crashed into a pole. The driver fled on foot while Diaz Chacon, 24, ran to the little girl and took her home, reports Newser.
“I knew I had to catch him. I had to get the girl back from him and take her home, back where she belongs,” he told Associated Press. He said he had no fear until he saw the driver emerge for the van. “When he got down I was thinking, what if he has a gun?” Diaz Chacon says he thought of his own two girls (a seven-year-old and five-month-old) and how he would want someone to do the same for him. While all this action was happening, the girl’s 12-year-old sister frantically called 911 to report her little sister missing (Diaz Chacon’s wife did the same).
The abductor, Phillip Garcia, 29, eventually returned to his wrecked van and drove away, but was later captured by police.
Police reportedly found packing tape and a tie-down strap 25 feet from the van. And inside the van they discovered a glove, Leatherman tool, black satchel and an orange strapping similar to the strap found hidden under the rock. As police Sgt. Tricia Hoffman said, “This little girl was very lucky. We can only guess what would have happened to this child.”

11 year old girl who sets things on fire with her mind

I guess some movies are true especially when we have a true life documented story about this 11 year old girl who sets things on fire with her mind. I was just thinking I would hate to make enemy's with her.
Here's the story:




"The case of an 11-year-old girl in HCM City's Tan Binh District claimed to have supernatural fire- starting powers is continuing to baffle scientists. The girl, whose family claims she has an unusual mental power that can cause objects to burst into flames, has drawn a great deal of attention from the Vietnamese media. The girl's father said he first became aware of that his child was unusual when the family home's electrical network suffered several short circuits, about a month ago. Electricians were called to fix the short circuit but could not find the cause behind the power failures. He said the girl was taken to other houses where the same phenomenon took place each time. Her mattresses, fans and other equipment have burst into flames. The hotel room where her family stayed two weeks ago during their holiday on Vung Tau beach also suffered burns from a blaze. The family then realised that objects were burnt when the girl approached them, although her body did not radiate any electric sparks, said her father. The girl has been examined by doctors at Cho Ray Hospital and the Children's Hospital No. 2 but nothing abnormal has been found. But a team of scientists from the Centre of Research and Application for Radio-active Geo- biological Energy at Hong Bang University has also carried out tests on the girl and confirmed that she is unusual. Prof. Nguyen Manh Hung, director of the university, said that the girl is capable of burning things arround her.
