This Generation SUCKS

I always feel that our generation (Gen X) are the keepers of he future. We had to do things the manual way, use the real dictionary, and roll down the window. But some of the parents from our generation and the one before has damn near destroy the next brand.


In my line of work see this quite often. Some of these students freak out if their clothes shrunk or if their ringer on their phone isn't loud enough. They also don't know how to cook, check their bank account, or even write a check.

Hell, I was cooking hamburgers at 8, washing dishes at 9, washing clothes at 11, and other things I can't talk about at 14. If these kids are in therapy at 7 and failure in a job interview leads to suicide...Is the future doomed?

The Forgotten Ones


In our lavish, boy-toy ridden world we forget about another LGBT community: the homeless youths. 40% of all the homeless youth in the US are LGBT.

When they are thrown out, they are forced to figure out their next steps without any proper guidance. If they find a shelter to stay in, they are gay bashed or ridiculed. So they are damned all away around. I didn't realized that this was a growing issue, but more of our LGBT youth are on the streets doing whatever, whenever to survive. It breaks my heart to know this.

So I will look for ways to assist our homeless youths in L.A. I believe that these kids need people to provide them with some sense of hope. I feel that they have seen the dark side of things for too long. If we could do something to spark a sense of hope in them, I'm game.

I can't imagine being in their shoes. I can't imagine losing everything when you have nothing more to lose. It's very troubling to know that some of our younger generation is struggling with their sexuality as well as where they're going to sleep. I wish I had a place like Haven House (JEM reference). If I win the lottery, I will build a place for our kids.

Someone lay hands on George Michael


What is happening to him? Why does this happens every 3 or some years? George Michael was arrested in public toilets on suspicion of possessing drugs in London!

In a statement, the Metropolitan Police said a 45-year-old man had been arrested in the Hampstead Heath area of London on Friday. He was later released with a caution for possession of class A and class C drugs.

The statement did not name Michael, but other sources confirmed his identity.

Reports Sunday said Michael had been arrested following a tip-off to police from a suspicious toilet attendant, PA said.

Why, why, why! Hera or Andrew help this man!
