The Unpublished Issues

We had a few very much needed days of rain early this week. It helped a lot with the fires in the Interior and with the dryness here on the coast. By late week we were back to very hot and dry so the fires will probably start to rage again.


This is of course the mid summer long weekend. I don’t need to go again into how much I hate lone weekends, given how busy they are and how deadly the highways become due to the moronic self entitled drivers. So I won’t. But, it just becomes another reason to hide at home instead of going anywhere or doing anything.


Something I did do this week was get my hair cut. For most people that would be a normal everyday thing but I tend top only do it once my hair is completely out of control and I look like some wild bush man. So, down to the barber I went and had them cut everything very short. Now I don’t look like me and thats ok and besides, it all grows back so very fast.


And something rather disgusting, I saw the worst example of a kid throwing a temper tantrum imaginable. I was in the checkout line at the grocery store and a kid about 5 or 6 started yelling at what was probably his grandmother. At the top of his lungs he screamed at her and tried to push her shopping cart over. He then went to a blueberry display and started throwing the boxes of berries onto the floor, sending berries all over the place. Never letting up with the screaming, he pulled over a display. When his grandfather tried to grab him, he ran behind the customer service counter where the grandfather finally caught him. The kid was still screaming about whatever it was he wanted. It was disgusting and embarrassing for everyone. If that kid is not corrected and set on a better path he will be in the news in a short few years for knifing people because they won’t give him what he wants. He needs a really good spanking but these days the parent or whoever would find themselves in big trouble if they did that.
