Drive By Shooting Prompts Lady To Don Helmet

This past Saturday night, there was a drive by shooting next to the industrial park in which I work.

This is nothing new. We've had swat teams running through the parking lot (twice), men arrested right in the street in front of our building, kids vandalizing the floor in which our office resides, the locks on our cars punched out, etc. It's gotten much worse since we moved into the area about 12 years ago, and needless to say, our office will be moving out of this area at the end of this year. We've had enough.

At any rate, when Marty drove me to work this morning, just a few days after the shooting, we got an eye full of an elderly lady standing on the corner, wearing a football helmet.

We could only surmise that she now feels the needs to wear one to deflect bullets that may come her way. Although it is sad in a way that she feels like her life is in danger and believes she can protect herself by wearing a helmet, we could not help but find a small bit of humor in her costume. I thought I'd share it with my blog fans to show that no matter how bad we may think our problems are, there is always someone who is worse off.

Woman Missing For 40 Years Re-appears

Have you ever thought to yourself how wonderful it would be to just run away to another state or even another country and never come back? Something stops you, right? Honestly, I have thought about it, but then I think about how hurt my family members and loved ones would be. I love them too much to do something so selfish. I also think about how the grass is not always greener on the other side, and if I did this, what kind of job could I possibly get that would provide a decent enough paycheck to keep me in the lifestyle to which I have become accustomed to. This lady apparently got ticked off enough to run away and never come back... until now. How odd is that?

Alien Space Ships... Really???!

This is just another video taken by people who think they saw Alien Space Ships in the sky over London. Like I have said before, I believe it is possible that there are other forms of life out there, but how come whenever an earthling sees something like this, they automatically think it's life visiting from somewhere in outer space. The below video in particular just looks like some kind of reflection on the lens, or maybe the video just didn't do it justice. I am curious. Has anyone seen real proof of alien space ships, other than white dots flying around in the sky or an obviously enhanced video? If so, I am interested in seeing it.
