Will Smith

 To any readers who aren't aware, at this year's Oscar ceremony, Chris Rock was on stage and made a shout out to Jada P Smith, Will's wife, and said he couldn't wait for GI Jane 2. This was in reference to her shaved hair, which was due to a medical condition rather than a fashion statement.

Will got up, sauntered on stage, and slap punched Chris Rock in the face, returned to his seat, and shouted profanities in follow up.

There has been a lot of public discussion about the incident.  

My question is, where was security?

If they were unable to stop Smith mounting the stage, surely after he slapped Rock, security should have approached him and escorted him out of the room. Yes, it would have made a scene even more dramatic, the show must go on, blah blah, but in my opinion the Oscar organizers are to blame for not removing Smith immediately and getting him psychiatric help. 

Psychiatric help, you say? Yes, in one evening, Smith expresses violent anger, then cries uncontrollably when accepting his award, and then is shown ecstatic at an after party.  Three emotional extremes in a short period of time. 

I don't like award ceremonies.  Smith has proven his worth as an actor many times over the years. I own a copy of "I am Legend".  There is one point in the movie I get too scared and can't watch it anymore.  I tried to watch it within the last year, thinking I could tough it out, and nope, enter that part of the movie and I had to turn it off.  LOL. Now if that's not good acting, I don't know what is.  He doesn't need a group of people to acknowledge it.  The rest don't need the disappointment of not winning.  All the movies, all the actors , and a handful of people rule who gets an honor?  

But, I don't like games either.  I am not only a poor winner I am a poor loser.  I feel sad if I win and sad if I lose.  Don't we have enough emotions to deal with on a day to day basis without willingly piling them on? I have seen people go into mourning because "their" team lost.  I have seen them happier than when their children were born if "their" team won. WTH?  People are nuts.

Ban trapping in NWR's

 I support banning of ALL trapping, but did you know trapping is allowed in National Wildlife refuges?

Here is a link where you can add your name to those who support a trapping ban in NWR's.

Goats

 Obi on the left is 15. Moonie (Moonshadow) on the right is 16.


I bought these boys as babies at a livestock auction. They most likely would have ended up as meat. I have taken care of them twice a day since then.  Well, sometimes I would get the kids to do night chores. 

If I care this much about animals, you can imagine the grief I am feeling over the situation in the eastern part of the planet. IMO every democratic country in the world should have placed troops along the border at the first hint of buildup, and said, "Bring it on, bitch"
