Things That Don't Make A Fucking Bit Of Sense

Maybe it's my age. Maybe I'm just gettin old. Maybe I'm gettin Alzheimer's.

But it seems like there's an over-abundance of things that just simply don't make sense to me.

First, there's

this

. It's about the little three year old UK girl that got snatched while her family was vacationing in Portugal.

Um....the parents left the little girl and her twin sister alone in their room at the resort while they went to eat at the resort's restaurant....that was about a hundred yards away.

Granted, a hundred yards isn't a lot. But it's too damn far to leave TWO THREE YEAR OLD KIDS UNATTENDED! The dad had the balls to say the room was "within their sight". Yea. Someone managed to get in the room, grab the toddler and get back out again without anyone seein 'em. So just who the hell was watchin?

And the parents are gettin nothin but sympathy. I've got all the sympathy in the world for that little girl. But for those parents? Uh, nope. Sorry. Can't muster up a bit.

And then there's

this

little gem.

The immigration service yesterday proposed big increases in the fees to apply for immigrant and work visas and for naturalized citizenship, but some lawmakers said it is time for taxpayers to foot part of the bill to ease the cost on potential immigrants.

Let's see, now.

Everyone's bitchin about illegal immigrants. So let's raise the cost of becoming a legal immigrant, thereby making it much harder to do the "right" thing...and become legal.

Uh huh.

Oh, OH! Then "some lawmakers" think WE should foot part of the bill to ease the cost on potential immigrants."

And just who do these genius lawmakers think is footin the damn bill NOW? The Immigrant Fairy?

I dunno.

I think I'm gonna quit watchin the news. It makes me spew green pea soup whilst my head spins around.

Makes a damn mess...
