Since joining the world of Blogging last year, I’ve been graced with meeting nothing but wonderful people. I’ve learned so much about all of them, through comments and e-mails, and I enjoy these Internet friendships.
A while back, lovely Ixy from Illusion, sent me an Overlord award, different from most as it carries the gift of power. She advised me to use said power…wisely. And…darling Natalie from My Blog Is Boring also sent me one which I somehow missed (I’m so embarrassed!) during my move from Blogger to WordPress. How lucky am I?
I’ve been doing a great deal of thinking as I polish my crown…
My days of wallowing in mediocrity have, at long last, come to an end. I have been elevated above the blogging rabble, endowed with a new sense of higher purpose and the power to instill awe and wonder upon all who gaze upon my glorious, ethereal being.
First..The Rules (I hate rules!)…simple…but since I am the Queen, I’m using my power to change said regulations.
Post the award and the rules on your blog. (check)
List three five things you would like to change if you were Overlord. (check)
List ten blogs you think are worthy of world domination. (somewhat-when-pigs-fly-check only because I dislike leaving anyone out but will just throw all my favs into my crown and pick a few!)
The three five things I would change in this world (and don’t judge me on this!) would be:
To….create a National Animal Abuser Registry in the U.S., similar to that of a sex offender, where personal information, including abuser photos, could be sent from state-to-state.. Animal shelters put potential adopters through the wringer (rightfully so) with home visits, etc., but, all too often, animals end up in the wrong homes with terribly abusive owners. Such a registry could be posted on the web for easy access by pet rescue organizations and others involved in responsible animal humane facilities.
To….mandate that every state tax the ever-loving crap out of animal breeders and place them into some luxury tax category. Help stamp out the filthy, inhumane puppy mills and the disgusting mall pet stores who sell these animals; dogs and cats who are riddled with illnesses and degenerative issues caused by excessive in-breeding. Think about how many loving pets are destroyed every day in some shelter because people look to pay ridiculous amounts of money for some “designer” pet from a breeder or pet store!
To…..incarcerate every parent who prostitutes their child through pageantry…I’m talkin’ Toddlers & Tiaras here folks! These overstuffed, unkempt sacks of camel dung who push their kids to look like tiny whores, children wearing false teeth and trashy outfits while dancing on some stage, should all be charged with parental abuse. To rob a child of their innocence and teach them no intrinsic values in their young lives is…criminal!
To…..make it a national law that all these Spandex-Jockeys on bicycles be licensed and their bikes insured and registered. Make every cyclist wear a registration number on their back for easy police identification. Here in New York, these arrogant road warriors abuse the privilege of the Shared Roadways law by cycling 3 and 4 abreast, running traffic lights, stop signs and side-swiping pedestrians. I’m all for healthy exercise but when these jackasses want the same rights as automobiles yet get away with disobeying the rules of the roads they pedal along on…something ain’t right! Why this potential for revenue is just ignored by the Department of Motor Vehicles in New York is asinine. Treating these cyclists like other vehicles would also give local police the ability to chase these two-wheeled suckers down and write them all tickets….more revenue!
To…..Legalize Marijuana! God put it on earth for a reason why not use it? Make it easier for cancer patients to get quality weed to help them with chemo side-effects. I really don’t get why it isn’t. I think we’d have some many more creative and relaxed people, and it would free up the prisons for the real criminals, like politicians, for example. Did I mention that it is likely the key to getting us out of our current, rapidly disintegrating, economic mudslide? Think of the profit that would roll-in if it were taxed!
Are you still here or did I scare you away?
The onus is now on me to notify these fine individuals that they’re the proud recipients of this fabulously unique award that nations have fought over and which is lusted after by billions of bloggers the world over! (If any of them still talk to me after my blog rant)…
Bernie…..One Mixed Bag
Crystal….Surviving and thriving in Momdom
Missy……The (Not Always) Happy Homemaker Diary
Colie…….The Colie Chronicles
Jaimie…..Legos In My Pocket
Ms.B……..The Unpopular Girl in Womanhood
Natalie….My Blog Is Boring
As I asked, don’t judge me. Today is my birthday and I really am…Queen for the Day!
