My lovely older sister is involved with the Uso’s 9/11 Remembrance Walk (5k) that will be on September 8th 2012 and she asked me to share the opportunity to be a part of it with my wonderful followers.
Here’s a bit of info from their site:
The USO’s 9/11 Remembrance Walk (5K) is an event to honor the memory of those we lost on that tragic day and to raise funds for the USO’s efforts to support those who protect our freedom every day.
Most importantly, the USO makes sure your support goes to those who need it most - troops serving in combat, their families, wounded warriors and their families, and the families of the fallen.
As a non-profit, non-political organization, the primary focus of the USO is now, and always will be our troops. Wherever and whenever they go, the USO will be there, until every one comes home.
And (this is the important part)
Here’s a link to my sister’s site where you can register (did I mention it’s free?) for the walk or, if you wish to, donate.
P.S.
Feel free to spread the word!
So,obviously, I clicked on it, turned up Actual Cannibal Shia La beouf (which has been playing pretty much non stop since I found it), and settled in with my hands ready to protect my eyes in case anything nasty popped up (which I was 99.99999% sure wouldn’t or I never would have clicked on it). So I finish reading the rather uninformative article (stupid misleading headlines!) and am looking at the comments (always a dangerous thing) and see one saying they’d be eating salad for dinner. I hadn’t even thought about that. It literally never crossed my mind. Then I remembered what my Mum had told me…. That we’d be having beef burgundy with spaghetti squash for dinner. :/
You may go back to your life now. My useless story about how I’m going to eat meat after reading something about cannibals and the fact that I’m not bothered by it is now over.
P.S. Remember to watch your back cause apparently you never know if the person next to you is actually a cannibal.
P.P.S. Oh and enjoy your dinner!

Playing With Telemarketers
| I was at home the other night in the middle of my dinner when the phone rang. | |
| ME: | Hello. |
| AT&T: | Hello, this is AT&T. |
| ME: | Is this AT&T. |
| AT&T: | Yes, this is AT&T ... |
| ME: | This is AT&T. |
| AT&T: | Yes, this is AT&T ... |
| ME: | Is this AT&T.? |
| AT&T: | Yes! This is AT&T, may I speak to Mr. Byron, please? |
| ME: | May I ask who is calling? |
| AT&T: | This is AT&T. |
| ME: | OK, hold on. |
| At this point I put the phone down for a solid 5 minutes thinking that, surely, this person would have hung up the phone. I ate my salad. Much to my surprise, when I picked up the receiver, they were still waiting. | |
| ME: | Hello? |
| AT&T: | Is this Mr. Byron? |
| ME: | May I ask who is calling, please? |
| AT&T: | Yes, this is AT&T ... |
| ME: | This is AT&T? |
| AT&T: | Yes, this is AT&T ... |
| ME: | The phone company. |
| AT&T: | Yes, sir. |
| ME: | I thought you said this was AT&T. |
| AT&T: | Yes, sir, we are a phone company. |
| ME: | I already have a phone. |
| AT&T: | We aren't selling phones today, Mr. Byron. We would like to offer you 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. |
| ME: | Now, that's 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day? |
| AT&T: | (getting a little excited at this point by my interest) Yes, sir, that's right! 24 hours a day! |
| ME: | 7 days a week.? |
| AT&T: | That's right. |
| ME: | 365 days a year.? |
| AT&T: | Yes, sir. |
| ME: | I am definitely interested in that! Wow!!! That's amazing! |
| AT&T: | We think so! |
| ME: | That's quite a sum of money! |
| AT&T: | Yes, sir, it's amazing how it adds up. |
| ME: | OK, so will you send me checks weekly, monthly or just one big one at the end of the year for the full $52,560; and if you send an annual check, can I get a cash advance? |
| AT&T: | Excuse me? |
| ME: | You know, the 10 cents a minute. |
| AT&T: | What are you talking about? |
| ME: | You said you'd give me 10 cents a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. That comes to $144 per day, $1008 per week and $52,560 per year. I'm just interested in knowing how you will be making payment. |
| AT&T: | Oh, no, sir. I didn't mean we'd be paying you. You pay us 10 cents a minute. |
| ME: | Wait a minute, how do you figure that by saying that you'll give me 10 cents a minute, that I'll give YOU 10 cents a minute? Is this some kind of subliminal telemarketing scheme? I've read about things like this in the Enquirer, you know. |
| AT&T: | No, sir, we are offering 10 cents a minute for |
| ME: | THERE YOU GO AGAIN! Can I speak to a supervisor please? |
| AT&T: | Sir, I don't think that is necessary. |
| ME: | I insist on speaking to a supervisor! |
| AT&T: | Yes, Mr. Byron. Please hold. |
| At this point, I begin trying to finish my dinner. | |
| SUPERVISOR: | Mr. Byron? |
| ME: | Yeah. |
| SUPERVISOR: | I understand you are not quite understanding our 10 cents a minute program. |
| ME: | Is This A T &T? |
| SUPERVISOR: | Yes, sir, it sure is. |
| ME: | (I had to swallow before I choked on my food. It was all I could do to suppress my laughter and I had to be Careful not to produce a snort.) No, actually, I was just waiting for someone to get back to me so that I could sign up for the plan. |
| SUPERVISOR: | Ok, no problem, I'll transfer you back to the person who was helping you. |
| ME: | Thank you. |
| I was on hold once again and managed a few more mouthfuls. I need to end this conversation. Suddenly, there was an aggravated but polite voice at the other end of the phone. | |
| AT&T: | Hello, Mr. Byron, I understand that you are interested in signing up for our plan.? |
| ME: | No, but I was wondering - do you have that "Friends and Family" thing because I'm an only child and I'd really like to have a little brother... |
| AT&T: | *click* |
Excuse me while I die over here.
