Weekend Brain Overdrive

You ever have one of those mornings, especially on a weekend morning when you don't have to get up early to start your day, when your brain wakes you up with a bunch of different things running through your head? 
That was my morning right now. 
During the week when I work I get up at 4:10 am. The weekends are suppose to be a time when I can at least sleep until 6 am maybe, right? Not this morning.
I suppose your wondering what kind of things are running through my head? Well they are very random things. Ranging from things in the news to running lines through my head from the play I'm involved in. ( The Foreigner. I'm Betty Meeks) to things I've got to do around the house. That kind of stuff. And while I'm trying to get my brain to settle down, the birds outside are already singing up a storm. Maybe because it's not raining, finally. Then after awhile my bladder starts to tell me it's time to get up, now. So after about almost an hour of trying to relax again and drop off to sleep I give up and get up.
So here I am. Now what.
How about the news thing that were running through my head. Where to start......How about the George Zimmerman trial. I know that's what some of the news channels will be obsessing over till it's done and beyond. Especially if they can help other people over react to the verdict and then wonder how that happened . News channels I usually try to avoid as much as possible because it gets old real quick hearing the same thing over and over and over again.. I like to move on with my life and not worry about something that can't be changed. If you are wondering what my thoughts are about what happened here it is. My theory about what happened... George was doing his watch thing trying his best to protect his neighborhood when he sees this person walking down the street, looking in his eyes, like someone who was up to no good. He called it in and was told to not approach this person and wait till someone could come and check this person out all official like. But he could not wait and felt like he had to take things into his own hands. He could have envisioned himself as a hero who stopped a bad thing from happening. So he started following this person and tried to question them about what they were doing in that neighborhood. The guy didn't respond to him. So he kept at it, bugging the guy till he finally turned around and reacted in away allot of people do when they are being hounded by someone real annoying that is dogging their every step. Some people do have violent reactions others not so much. Me, I'm not sure how I would react. But I can understand why Trayvon reacted the way he did. So I don't think I would make a good person for this trial.I will not be going out of my way to follow this dog and pony show put on by the media I've got better things to focus on like, my lines...
 My goodness Frog...the places you been. The people you seen. Jest takes m'breath away. 
That kind of stuff anyway.  
So now that I have those things kind of out of my head for now, I think I'll enjoy this nice sunny morning. 
 Till next time. 
Keep on pondering the pondering possibilities.

Jean Viken Cold Case

When I first started this blog one of the first things I wrote about was the murder of a local woman. She disappeared Jan 29th 2008 on one of the coldest days of that month. Her body was found I think in May of that year. She had been shot. Her van was found not long after she went missing up north. She was the mother of 4 young children and was going through a divorce at the time. Well here it is 2 years later and nothing has happened to try and find the person or persons responsible for her death. Why? I'm sure the whoever was responsible was really not that smart. It's as if the no one wants to get to the bottom of what really happened to her. Maybe she was not important enough. Maybe she was not connected to the right people.  I wonder what it would take to get more exposure to this cold case. If there was more pressure from some place else maybe the ones responsible would start to panic and make mistakes to expose the truth. It's time the truth was exposed. Remembe

Jean Viken update and other local things.

This past week Channel 7 has been doing stories on the cold case of Jean Viken.I did see one of them. In it the police said they know who did it but they are waiting for someone to come forward. But no matter what four young children will be without their mother for the rest of their lives because someone decided to end her life out of the meanness of their heart. Here is the story I found on the internet: Jean Viken's friends and family remember her as a loving mother of four young kids, a devoted daughter and sister. But nearly four years after her murder, a dark cloud hangs over Jean's memory, as they continue to search for answers. "We were having a birthday party for her because all of her friends would have wanted to get together like we would have done if she was here," Jane Hempel said. Almost five months after Jane Hempel reported her sister Jean Viken missing, family and friends gathered to celebrate her birthday, hoping to feel some semblance o

Pondering Japan's Earthquake

The earthquake in Japan is just another wake up call for us. It is so far the largest disaster we are dealing with right now. And with all those nuclear power plants having problems there, it will get a whole lot worse.  The earth is talking to us. Telling us the big change is upon us. Instead of fighting wars in other countries we should be preparing our people for this big change that will change our home, planet Earth, in a way that will make life allot more difficult to survive.  Japan had prepared for this kind of event to a point, but this kind of event to this degree is never fool proof.  My heart does go out to all those who are living through this right now.  I will give one prediction for the near future that some might say makes me sound like a crack pot but it is always a possibility.  Here it is: With all the things happening right now natural disasters and political unrest big changes are inevitable. Governments will fall apart, America included. People will have to rel
