Dear Alex:

You've always insisted on doing things your  way. And the results of doing it your way have always proven disastrous for not only yourself, but for everyone involved.

Contrary to what you may think or believe,  no one forced you into making the choices you'e made and continue to make.   No one has forced you into living a life of misery.  Your situation is the combination of insisting  on doing things your way (even though it never works out for you) and from the poor choices you've made and continue to make.  

With respect to Shelby.  Yes, me and the rest of this family dropped the fucking ball.  I take responsibility for my part.  And My Part Alone!      I’m not taking responsibility for anyone else’s reactions, actions, in-actions, etc. Not my job!  I’m not taking responsibility for Tara, Bobbie Lynn, Lloyd, Frankie or Betty and their individual and collective failures to take any necessary actions.    Again, not my job!

Again, for emphasis, I can, and will, only take responsibility for me!  No one Else! 

I’m not taking responsibility for you.  And I’m certainly not taking responsibility for Ashley!  

I will remind you again and again, however many times it takes, that you’re the one that brought that person into our lives.  You knew how Ashley was and is.    You know her violent tendencies. She's has, on more than one occasion,  beat your ass into the ground.  And yet you brought her around Shelby.  You had numerous options.  But you refused to take them. 

So as far as I am concerned, both you and Tara share responsibility for what occurred!      And YES!  Tara, IS  MAINLY RESPONSIBLE!  But as she has told you, has told me and has told numerous others countless times...she just could not be bothered!     So it fell on you!

At least Ashley is in jail paying for her actions!    In truth, both you and Tara belong in jail right along with Ashley!  Tara in particular and most especially.  Not just  for thinking she could just toss her mother to the curb like yesterday's trash, but for being a thief and liar. 

And you for just being a dumb ass!

And by the way,  my  conscience is clear.   I did try to get Shelby help.  It was shortly after mother died.  But guess what?   I was told to mind my own fucking business!  I was told I had no legal standing. I  was told to stand down!   So I did.  


Alex, you can sit there and feel sorry for yourself all you want. But all your self-pity isn't going to change the past.  It's not going to change anyone who doesn't want,  or choose, to change.  But most importantly,  your little hissy fits and pity parties aren't going to change the truth of what is!

FYI:  Hissy fits and pity parties do not change the Truth!

And the truth is, you've made bad choices,  you continue to make even more bad choices each day.  And you still insist on doing everything your way.  Even though it always ends badly for you and anyone involved!

You can sit there and assign blame all day long.  You can waste away the hours drudging  up the past of what was said, done, etc. But you know what Alex?  Assigning Blame does not change the Truth!

And by the way Alex.  Everyone who knows you knows the real reason you went to live with  Shelby.    You’re not fooling anyone pal!  Well maybe yourself.  But no one else!  So you can get off your high horse now!   You've lived rent free for how many years now?  Going straight from living off my mother to living off Shelby.  So give it a rest!

FYI:  Putting on a Pretense does not change the Truth!

You see Alex,  I no  longer have this desire to be a part of such dramas.   I've wasted enough time and energy as it is.       I'm too old, too tired and just plain too sick of living in a reality where it's nothing but a continuous flow of freeze dried bullshit.  But I needed to get this off my chest.  I needed to air out this booger so I could move on and away from you, this asshole family, and all of your dramas!

And too, I wanted to pass on this message.  So here's the bottom line.  

You can keep doing things your way until the cows come home; and you can keep making all the bad choices you can come up with.  I mean, after all, doing things your way, making shitty choices has worked out so wonderfully for you thus far!  Right?  


Or 

You can pull your head out of your ass and try something that actually resembles some form of sanity!

Here's a Hint:  Try making a different fucking choice and see where it takes you!    Start with pulling your enormous size head out of your ass!

The Empress on 2011: Part Three

I am sorry to report that in 2011 we saw an increase of “reality” TV shows.    Which is proof positive of how utterly dumbed down the majority has gotten!  As if there weren’t enough distractions  -- we are now bombarded by trashy television shows that have the audacity to call themselves “reality” TV.    And don’t even get me started on those ridiculous, badly slammed together  paranormal shows.  

It has gotten so bad, I don’t even own a television any more!  Why bother?  All the good decent shows are all but disappeared.  And what shows were good and entertaining can now be found on the internet.  Or if you still have a television you can purchase them on DVD. 

2011 has also seen the rise of what I like to call ...  the "Stuck on Stupid Syndrome" or S.O.S.S. for short!    

Where else but on a planet taken over by the utterly stupid can you find a law that clearly prohibits TEXTING ON A CELL PHONE WHILE DRIVING???!!! 

If you weren’t stupid to begin with -- you wouldn’t have to be told that texting and/or talking on the telephone is  a really stupid idea!  And there wouldn't have been a need to pass a  law to  prohibited it!   But Stupid people have to be told it’s not a good idea --- that it‘s really stupid To TEXT and/or TALK on the telephone  while driving … because they are STUPID!

Same thing with drinking booze and driving.  People too stupid to know if you are drinking,  it slows down and messes up your reactions.  What really amazes me is the drunks who are so drunk they can't stand but still believe they can drive a car!  STUPID!  Tellin' ya! 

Then there are the stupid people who like to pretend they are clever.  They're the ones that will explain to you that talking to someone in the car  next to you is distracting and that having children in the car is distracting.     My reply to that line of logic?  If you are THAT easily distracted -- then you don't need to be driving in the first damn place because you are apparently too damn stupid to focus on what is important!

Wit respect to that very "clever statement" ... I do have a few suggestions though (of course I do!).


If the kids are the cause of said distraction -- you know they are ill behaved -- you know they are going to act up while you are driving you can either (1) do what our parents did and pull over; (2)  threaten them with bodily harm or knock them upside their heads or BOTH; or (3) duct tape them together and toss them in the back seat;  or (4) just  leave them at home!

If you have a friend and/or family member who is a virtual chatty cat -- and you know they are a chatty cat -- and you know they will distract you with all their chatting --- you can (1) threaten to throw them out; (2) throw them out; (3) duct tape up and toss'em in the back seat; or (4) just leave them at home!

Actually if you are among the truly stuck on stupid -- it's just best you stay at home and watch your stupid "reality tv shows!  It's best for all involved really!

Of course, stupid people are not going to do any of that.  Rather than  taking any steps that remotely resemble intelligent and responsible actions-- they prefer risking life and limb of not only themselves -- but that of innocent by standers!  Which of course results in life altering injuries, unnecessary deaths and MORE DAMN LAWS!

Now ... If you still believe there are no stuck on stupid people on this planet -- I will refer to all those  labels that had to be placed on certain products to keep the stupid people from harming themselves--and each other.    It's been an on-going problem for years!   And now -- they have slowly taken over the entire planet -- and gaining in numbers!

Proof positive that stupid people have taken over the planet, and continue to breed like rabbits, is based on this one all important fact -- and it as follows ....  long ago,  you were hard pressed to find more than two village idiots at any given time!   Now ... its the other way around!  NOW you are hard pressed to find more than two NON-STUCK ON STUPID people in the same village.  In some instances -- the entire village  is nothing BUT idiots! 

Those of us who have any measure of good sense, any level of comprehension skills pass the kindergarten level,  and any type of logical and analytical abilities,  can now consider themselves  on the Endangered Species list!

Unfortunately, the American government has seen fit to close down the space program.  So we're stuck on this rock until one of us comes up with a serum that cures stupidity or builds an outer space Noah's Ark so we non stuck on stupid types can haul ass!

*~*~*~*~*~*

Hopefully, 2012 will be the year  our old friends Good Sense (formerly known as "common" sense), Common Courtesy and Logic will return.   After all, 2012 is being hailed as the year of enlightenment!  So there is hope!  

Yea ... I know!  I'm a dreamer!
