Quote: Life is a mirror
"Life is a mirror. If you frown at it, it frowns back;
if you smile, it returns the greeting"
~ W.M. Thackeray
Rather than "blog" meaning "weblog" the more appropriate term may be b(itch)log? It appeared to me that alot of the blogs out there were just ways to vent to the world...I love it! The idle musings of a retired former secretary turned blog publishing maven in one easy step and for longer than the proverbial 15 minutes of fame. Some of these random thoughts are funny, silly and/or serious.

America - the "Super Power"? I debate that self created title by the "richest, smartest, most powerful country in the word".
O.K., I have the patience of 100 women (I'd say men but that wouldn't apply now would it? How many guys do you know that are patient) but sometimes my job tries my very last nerve.
Having to deal with American customers on the phone all day, I would like to share how these brash people deal with things.
They whine, threaten, scream, demand, cry, use profanities (including the worst one which is a part of the female anatomy and I know you guys know which one that is) and act like they are a toddler.
Some of their dumb questions: "Are there black people in Canada?" "It's October - do you have loads of snow right now?" I'm in a semi-arid climate and although we get snow, it's usually later in the year and our igloos aren't toally covered. LOL
"Super Power" they want us to believe? More like "Stupid Power".
