News Unworthy
Posted by: branwynne77 on: November 29, 2008
I know. None of my posts this week have actually been comment worthy. Why? I’ve just been tuning out the news—which is often a source of blogging material for me–it has been just so damn depressing lately.
Sometimes, I think the news is bad for the economy—news anchors joyfully bleating (I swear I can see glee [...]
The older I get, the less I care about people’s opinions on how I should act or look. I don’t give a flying flip if someone hates how I dress or do my hair. (Or not do my hair as the case may be! )
I have quit living my life to get people’s [...]
Odds and ends…

This isn’t going to apply to Facebook, but I’ve linked my blog to Facebook so that it updates Facebook with my latest blog post. I am cleaning out all the old links that have not been active in months and are unlikely to return. They will always be welcomed back, of course, if they become [...]
Facebook is For Shallow People
Posted by: branwynne77 on: November 23, 2008
I recently put a fairly realistic picture of me up on Facebook. I lost ALL my “friends” immediately after putting it up. You know what? They can go suck a rotten egg. They can take their superficiality and stuff it up their hey hey. Honestly, whatever.
I wasn’t there looking to get it on with someone [...]
Inhuman Politics

I have decided that all governmental systems are doomed for failure. Why? Greed. Capitalism doesn’t work (cough the bailout for Wall Street, greedy so and so’s), socialism has too many opportunities for misuse, communism looks pretty on paper but it doesn’t work so well in real life.
So the best thing to do if we want [...]
Have Faith, But Don’t Push It On Me
Posted by: branwynne77 on: November 20, 2008
I normally don’t comment on religious (or political) blogs….mostly because when I do, I usually end up with a lot of “YOU ARE WRONG AND ARE GOING TO HELL.” Another way to phrase it is: If you don’t believe as I do, you are going to perdition.
That gets old after awhile, and honestly, attitudes like [...]
Jesus Was Not A Capitalist

Sorry. He just wasn’t. I’m not a Christian, relapsed-never-going-back-Lutheran, but the Bible has always intrigued me. Especially Song of Solomon. That book perplexed my little 12 year old mind.
Ooops. That’s a topic for another day.
Let’s get back on track, shall we?

Fare Thee Well

Another blog has bit the dust. This time, it’s my long time blog friend, Manuel. I’m sad because he’s been my on-line friend for a long time. I mean a LONG time. He was one of the very first people I added to my blogroll. He has always been a really cool blogger, sweet and [...]
Meh. I just don’t feel well or creative, nor do I feel like exposing my soul. I don’t even feel like formulating opinions, and that my friends, is rare. Believe me.
It’s almost as if I’m bleeding somewhere inside. This seems like a physical discomfort and not mental. I feel as though I’m sort of disconnected [...]
