Meagan Holden

She's the girl we practically watched being abducted from a Wal-Mart in Tyler, Texas.

Does anyone besides me see a problem with the fact that the man was seen hanging around that Wal-Mart for hours (security spoke with him once) and had approached other women? Is it me or should employees being released at that hour of night (near midnight) be escorted to their cars?

I don't think it's just me. Lawsuits will follow, and well they should.

What's that you say? Wipe my ass?

 I don't know if I mentioned that I'm a nursing student. Today I saw that some people, not our kind, darlings, think this means giving shots and taking names. Patient care? What's that?

Case in point (and a lucky point, too). I'm in line for whatever and there's this student-looks to be in her late twenties-who is in the bookstore to return a stack of books that she has hauled to campus in three backpacks. They are all for the nursing program. And she's bitching.

"I don't know why anybody would want to be a nurse. The other nurses treat you like shit and you're wiping other people's asses all the time. The only asses I wipe are mine and my kids! I quit!" The bookstore woman looks past her at me, "Want any of these?" The bitching, former nurse-to-be turns to address me.

"You know, you're wasting your time. Unless you want to wipe asses and clean up vomit and piss." I suggested that, just maybe, the reason the senior nurses treated her like shit was because of her attitude.

"What the f***? What's wrong with my attitude?!" Really, she said this.

I recommended some glasses as she appeared to have her head so far up her ass she was looking at the world through her mouth.

Did you know there is a nursing shortage? Ever wonder why? Final word on the subject: if you're temperamentally unsuited for nursing, shut up, get out and don't let the toilet paper stick to your shoe on the way out.

  Who cares about the inauguration? Sponge Bob is GAY!

I'm so serious! It says so in the New York Times. That would explain why that damned squirrel is named after ME. I wonder if he and Patrick and Bert and Ernie ever get together for playdates? Which brings up Squidward. He loves art and plays a clarinet but no mention of HIM in the New York Times. Larry the lobster is an obvious homoerotic character, also,what with all those muscles and weightlifting and all. Wow, it's true, too too true. Why couldn't we see it before? This is almost as big as the Procter and Gamble satanism thing. Bigger.
