Google sued for crimes against humanity

Posted on September 25, 2007 8:50 pm by TheAngelForever

Frivolous lawsuit – ya think?! Oh just wait until you read the ridiculous details of this. It’s unreal what we allow to tie up the courts in this country. This was filed September 18.

Here’s the full article. Now some quotes about it:

If you think you’ve seen bizarre lawsuits before, check this one out. Pennsylvania resident Dylan Stephen Jayne is suing Google for crimes against humanity and is asking the court for $5 billion in damages. The charge: his social security number, when turned upside down and scrambled spells Google.

A copy of the complaint is below. And even though it is handwritten, it’s a real lawsuit. The original can be found at Justia here.

Dylan lodged eight filings with the court, including an accusation that the Philadelphia 76ers play a key role in the code to unscramble his social security number to spell Google.

I don’t think Google will have a lot to worry about with this case, but it does make you wonder why mental health services aren’t more readily available in the United States.

Read this PDF file (page 18) where he shows how his Social Security number was stolen by the Philadelphia 76ers and Google. It’s too sad really. In addition to this note the elementary handwriting and horrid spelling errors.

*shaking head*

Calgon take me far, far away!!!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks, I needed that. I have been crying almost all day and things keep getting worse. Where to begin. I guess this morning.

– I took NHL to school. After I left him (no tears) I felt like I was leaving my child in a place where nobody wanted him or was willing to work with him. Sad isn’t it that I feel this way on only his 11th day of school.

– I have been sick since last week. I was hoping poor JSL would avoid it. No such luck. The poor baby is so stuffed up. He keeps sneezing and has a crusty nose. Nobody has the Little Nose saline drops around here so I will try more locations tomorrow. For now I just hope to keep him comfortable enough to nurse and sleep. He’s so easy going though – he smiles even though he sounds and looks like crud.

– JL got a strange credit card in the mail. I had him call about it since he did not request it. It was legit. Apparently it was the new card for a department store that we supposedly got notice about and did not opt out of. Thanks to this scare we decided tonight to run a credit report since we get 3 free from each bureau each calendar year. Please recall this for later on.

– This afternoon when I picked NHL up his teacher was avoiding me. Great, lovely, wonderful. This confirmed my first point above. Apparently he had a decent morning , but a bad afternoon. Not sure who, but he hit a teacher. Mind you his teacher was NOT going to tell me this. I really am close to giving up since they seem to be. They won’t take any suggestions I have to help the situation. I know he’s testing them, but they need to grow a set and set up consequences for bad actions in the classroom. He’s a very young 4, but I know he’s aware of what he’s doing.

– Thanks to the above I opted not to go to the PTA meeting at school tonight. Instead I went to Target to look for said saline drops for JSL and get a few other items. While there I got a call from JL. He just got an automated call from the credit card company about a fraud alert (not the one from this morning). He called them back. . . . sure enough a $3500 charge that he did NOT make. The account is frozen and they are looking into it. I have to say they are damn good. We think this literally happened minutes before the call since they really had sketchy details. So now we HAVE to do the credit check to see what the heck is going on.

– While JL was on the phone with the credit card company NHL was on the couch. He moved his legs and knocked my laptop off the couch (I leave it there to use when I am nursing JSL). JL told him to keep his legs away and picked the computer back up and put it on the couch. Don’t you know my sweet (note the sarcasm) child kicked it right back off the couch. Luckily it seems to work, but he killed two items. My USB mouse is dead and the port it was in is toast as well. GRRRRRRR!!!!!

– So I walked back into the house to NHLcrying in his bed, JSL sobbing, and JL trying to sort out the credit woes. Seriously this is enough for one day. I think I’m going to crawl under the covers to avoid doing another other damage to myself.

Sick baby = bad mommy

Posted on September 24, 2007 9:04 am by TheAngelForever

*sigh*

I was hoping that I was going to be the only one that was sick in the house. I don’t think that’s going to happen.

Poor JSL is all stuffed up, has nose crust, and is sneezing up a storm. I had thought it was teething causing a lot, but now I think he has his first official cold. Silly me for thinking that the excess saliva from teething was backing up and causing him to sneeze. . . . I think that’s part of it, but not the whole story. Last night he woke up gagging and curled up on my shoulder after to fall asleep. He was so sweet and wanted to be in my arms. He then went back to sleep until almost 6:00. He went almost 12 hours without eating (mommy sure felt that).

It’s all my fault that he’s sick since I was breathing on him when nursing. What stinks is there’s nothing I can do for him beside saline to moisten his nose (need to get him a bottle later) and use a bulb syringe (UGH). If he gets a temperature I can do Tylenol, but that’s it. Poor monkey, at least I was able to take Musinex which really helped me to break up stuff to get out.

I think the little monkey is waking up now. He can’t get settled and the noises from him are making my heart break.

Look out apples here we come!

Posted on September 23, 2007 9:45 pm by TheAngelForever

Last night JL made plans without me (*gasp*) to go with some friends to an apple orchard. This morning we decided that we weren’t really up to picking, but wanted to go there to see the place and get some apples (needed Macoun before they are out of season).

So we packed into my van and all went together.

We started off looking at the pumpkins that were able to be bought. We convinced NHL to wait to get one until the end of the visit so we didn’t have to lug it around.

Here’s NHL looking at all of the pumpkins while eating a freshly picked apple that he got with J.

Check out the pumkin with shades on:

While the boys were looking at the pumpkins JSL and I were hanging out in the shade. Here’s a rare photo of the two of us. Seriously I do exist

P1050287

Next we tried some samples of different types of apples and some peaches that were grown at the orchard (man there are too many different types of apples). We then wandered on to the animal area for NHL to check things out. I will skip photos of the animals (they are on my Flickr feed). Instead some of us being kids.

P1050321

From here three of the boys went into a corn maze (JL, NHL and J). Here are some photos from that.

From here we went to have lunch. We bought cider donuts to take home and got fresh made ice cream. Yes, that you read that right . . .that is what we all had for lunch. NHL and I had strawberry shortcake flavor and JL had pumpkin pie. After that we went to the store where we bought a lot of Macoun apples and some Honey Crisps (JL likes those) along with corn, honey and NHL’s pumpkin.

Both little guys were tuckered out after the day and went to bed early. One has already been up since he was gagging on drool. Poor little teething monster.

Anatomy of a lawn

Posted on September 23, 2007 9:07 pm by TheAngelForever

It’s time for another blog anatomy lesson. This one isn’t trying to top the Anatomy of a Cave one previously mentioned, just to show you that you never know what you’ll see out in the world.

Today we went with our friends (ya know the ones with the flower painting that looked like the cave) to an apple orchard for the afternoon. When we got back to their house they mentioned a problem they had. Here’s a photo – do you know what this problem is?
