ON MY MIND NOW...Ehh...not much to say lately. Feeling anxious, off kilter, restless and stressed.

Fire and Gasoline

Was it just me or, are we all taught at a pretty young age that fire and gasoline don't have a healthy outcome when they get near one another?

Apparently, the Brit Twit either wasn't listening when she was being taught that, or it was one of those lessons that she must have deemed useless info and filed it in her "forgotten knowledge compartment" in her brain. Sort of like Calculus. Unless you are a math teacher or a scientist, Calculus is one of those bits of knowledge that most of us (or a lot of us) tend to file into our "forgotten knowledge compartment" in our brains. However, we tend to remember that fire and gasoline don't mix well.

The Brit Twit, on the other hand, was completely fine with those two foes being around one another as she casually smoked a cigarette while at an active gas pump at a gas station over the weekend. Brilliant! And she thinks she is responsible enough to have children. If she wants to blow herself up at a gas station in her car...far be it for me to say "Boo" to her. But, when she might jeopardize the lives of her kids some day by pulling the same stunt, that bugs me. Oh, and she was caught on video not only smoking at the gas station while gas was being pumped into her car, she was caught ashing onto the ground out of her car window. Gas tends to drip onto the ground when you pull the pump from your car. So, she could have been ashing onto gas drops on the ground. Again...Brilliant!

So, even if one is not outraged that she might perform such a careless act some day endangering her kids, keep in mind that if you are at a gas station where someone is mixing fire and gasoline and the station blows up, you may be a casualty as well. So, by that simple act, she not only endangered herself, but anyone else that happened to be unlucky to be getting gas at that station at the same time.

I truly think that she was trying to look cool. She sort of looked like she was posing at a photo shoot in the video.

So, lets cover this. Smoking is not cool. Endangering your life and those of other innocent bystanders is not cool. Ashing onto gasoline drops is not cool. Being an idiot...and a disrespectful one at that...is not cool.

BTW...did anyone notice that I didn't even mention Britney's name yesterday! I chose to make it a truly Brit Twit Free Day yesterday by not even saying that I was making it a Brit Twit Free Day.
