Fox News is weird.

Don't worry, I'm not going to get into politics. I know I"m not going to change anyone's mind on issues such as capital punishment, taxes, abortion, benefits of liberal or conservative views, etc., nor do I think anyone will change my own views on these issues. I get tired of debating with people (*cough*MATT*cough*) when the outcome is always the same. So, in an effort to keep everyone's blood pressure down, we will skirt any issues dealing with a) politics, b) religion, c)how to raise kids, and anything else that will never be resolved.
Currently, I'm at the hospital. My Dad is having knee replacement surgery today. (YAY!) That poor man has been gimping around for years now. I really hope that this gives him a new lease on life.
Let's talk chimps, shall we? Let me begin with baboons. When I was little, I remember hearing how vicious baboons were. I remember hearing something about baboons attacking safari cars in Africa and the whole bit. But, let me tell you... baboons have got NOTHING on chimps. Those motherfuckers are ROBOTS. Well, cannibalistic, vicious attacking robots. They will eat their own kind from rival tribes. Occurrences of chimps stealing/attacking human babies in remote Africa are on the rise. The chimps are "hunting" these babies for FOOD! So, no more "The dingo ate my babeh!" ... we now have chimps. "The chimp stole my babeh!" Damn right it did, and it ate its hands and feet off first before ripping into its face. I'm sure, by now, we've all heard about the woman in Connecticut who was attacked by the 200lb. pet chimp. The chimp attacked a 55 year old woman, first biting and maiming her hands (I had heard one story that said her hands were bitten off, another that said they were just horribly torn up... either way, the chimp is smart enough to go after their victims most dangerous weapons, first... CRAZY!) Then it went after her neck and head. It attacked her eyes, chewed off her nose ... essentially made her unrecognizable... tore her face off. The owner of the chimp, who says the chimp was like a child to her, went after the chimp with a knife, stabbing it multiple times to try to stop the attack. She then got a shovel and beat the chimp repeatedly. It didn't phase the chimp. When cops finally got there, the chimp went after one of the patrol cars, so an officer shot the chimp multiple times. The chimp STILL didn't go down... that sucker walked away and eventually died soon after. Stabbed, beat with a shovel, and shot multiple times... that is a horror flic waiting to be made!!!
The best supporting actor was GIVEN to Heath Ledger. Tell me another instance where an actor was even NOMINATED for a role in a comic book/superhero action movie. If he hadn't died, that performance would have been talked about a lot, but there is no way it would have been deemed Oscar worthy. I thought that was crap.
I'm starting to zone out. Whoever invented 4am should be shot. I am not amused.
Oh, one more story. I was at WalMart the other day, and the cashier asked me "how are you?" and I gave my scripted response "I'm well, thank you". Well, the cashier looked at me, and said "what??". I said... a bit more slowly this time... "I'm well... thank you?". She laughed and said "I thought you said "I'm wealthy", and I thought "well, this lady has some nerve"". HA!
I'm hungry for a bagel.
