When Didn’t They Know It, and What About You?

In Germany they came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up.

The Bachelor - Bachelorette Bio - Gwen
You think the bachelor has a hard choice? What about the choice between The West Wing, The Amazing Race 2 and The Bachelor?

I really enjoyed last week's episode of the West Wing. It was 2 hours long and I taped it. Then it took me 5 days to get through the whole thing. I tuned in tonight, but then flipped over to the other two shows to see what was going on.

So over on The Bachelor, all the girls were getting out of a limo to meet the guy. One by one they walked over and said hi. It was like watching a beauty contest without the contestants from Rhode Island and Vermont!

Over on The Amazing Race, the teams were running around Mexico, jumping out of planes and driving around with no clue of which direction to go! You have your overweight bald guys, your male models, your brother sister team, and an old team that seems pretty smart and not that out of shape either. This show is worth watching just to see all the locations they travel to and better yet, to see the teams fight with each other over what to do next. Leaving all your luggage in a taxi in the middle of Mexico didn't seems like hte brightest thing to do.

Back to the Bachelor, the girls were all nervous about who would be chosen. It was really great. After they chose the winners, I loved it when one girl said she was so happy that she wasn't chosen. Even better though were the coming attractions for next week showing all kinds of make out and hot tub sessions.

If I had to choose one right now it would have to be Gwen. I'll be tuned in next week to see what happens.

Quick, Get Over Here!
Yesterday my neighbor saw me coming home and yelled, "Quick, Get over here!"

I was an urgent call for help. So I rushed over, she was on her front steps.

She said, "Have you ever seen anything like it? It's huge. It's the biggest Praying Mantis I've ever seen."

"Too bad you don't have your camera."

I replied, "But I do have it right here."

S/he was pretty calm about me taking pictures of her. So was the Praying Mantis. Ha Ha.

Next thing you know my mother-in-law comes out of our house and asks, "What is going on over here?"

I informed her that our neighbor had seen the largest Praying Mantis ever and was alerting the media.

She asked me if I was going to kill it.

"Kill it? I say live and let live. What harm can a little praying mantis do?"

Turns out, a Praying Mantis is a good thing to have around the yard. Some people even buy them for their yards.

But beware, a Praying Mantis can kill.
