Alergy Season High this year

   Mostly so many people have allergies around the Spring/Summer era. 
  My mom especially.



    I feel sorry for so many people that have to sneeze, deal with teary eyes drippy noses. Feeling as if they have a headache over
   and over
      and over
         and over every single day of spring. It's not fair. I'm minor but some people have to suffer through it for a long time. Their headaches are heavy. They get migraines to the maximum level and all would help is a little Claritin pill, just to make them feel better.


   For me, for the love of god, it is stuffing tissues everywhere. Why? Because my nose drips like a faucet day and night. Even though I don't get the migraines that go with the allergies, it's just the dripping nose of the faucet. Even though Spring isn't quite over, and the pollen allergies are getting worse, eventually the pollen allergies will soon cease and the migraine headaches will go away but then summer will come and we will be allergic to something else.
  Pollen allergies are not something to sneeze about (LOL) but we can avoid them by trying to be cautious about if we are really allergic to pollen or if it's something else that is spring related such as sometimes a dusty room, or sometimes migraines can be stopped by just eventually talking to your doctor, although he can't do anything for you, but pray for you to get better. They would give you a medicine or prescription for something to take away the migraines, the sneezing the headaches and everything that comes with the dreaded allergies. Till then, stay safe this spring and if you allergies, hope they go away faster than the road runner in a speeding race. Ciao Bloggers and enjoy the better side of spring.

What is with all the celebrity deaths??????

   Tragic? Yes. This year isn't even half over and yet we have buried mostly part of the celebrity world. Ed Koch, Roger Ebert, Mindy McCready (Who committed suicide by gunshot), Annette Funicello, Jonathan Winters..
   the list is gonna go on and on.



I know I'm nit picking about this but this is just.... remarkable in it's own way. Sadly we are going lose more by the end of the year. But we have to remember how they brought us entertainment, enjoyment and happiness in our lives through music, tv, movies anything they were in, we will remember them for. Sadly we just lost the final surviving juror in the classic "12 angry men" movie that I love so much. Yes Jack Klugman is dead. Although he died on Christmas Eve last year it's still sad. Bonnie Franklin also passed away. Who was she? She was in young and the restless.


    Even Margaret Thatcher just died and she became more famous when Meryl Streep portrayed her in a movie. The saddest thing is that she wasn't the only on that had a movie in memory of her. Many famous people depict of their lives in movies, such as Michael Jackson's "this is it" (sadly it was) and also there was presidential movies such as Lincoln or JFK that portrayed their lives and deaths in so much detail and it seemed we remember them more for their death than their life.

     But with these recent celebrity deaths, it's just sad to know there are more celebrities that are hurt and maybe some that using drugs to coat the pain away from all the glamor. But even if it was an illness of cancer, or suicide, or just an accident from a car crash, it's their life story we will remember them for the most of the time not their deaths. One of my favorite quotes is after all: Just because they're gone, doesn't mean they are forgotten. They will still be remembered for who they are

   Every year, someone (even a celebrity) dies, but then again.... A baby is born.
    Till then Ciao Bloggers! and PRAY FOR BOSTON!

Food Logo changing. Good or bad??

  First off, I've been noticing some changes in some logos on foods or ads of TV shows such as lifetime changing their TV logo, and SciFi channel just being called SyFy now. I don't understand that. 

   But recently, I have noticed some names for food products that have changed their logos to change with the times. Mostly fast food chains. Burger King, McDonalds even Taco Bell have changed their logos as well. Even the Pringles man had a few changes in his image as well as his logo. Wendy's has changed their logo as well, to make it very stylish but I never cared much for Wendy's let alone the food.  But sometimes it can be the logo or style of it that can capture the customer's eyes. Kids especially love food. Mostly because the color of the box or the character. The character, like Tony the Tiger or Ronald McDonald get a change or two as well by their voice, personality and what not.

  I on the other hand think sometimes, overdoing a logo change (weather it be for a TV channel such as  Comedy Central or Food Logo) can either be good or bad.

   Bad mostly because it might just be too much to handle and maybe changing a logo or a slogan too soon after the old one never had it chance, or wasn't worth the wait. It just seems that the logo changing or the slogan changing would make a different. But in my opinion, I have a feeling it is time to change the McDonalds slogan. "I'm lovin' it." is starting to get a little stale. It was ok in I guess mid 2003. But now, it's past it's time. I mean "Where's the beef" slogan from Wendy's knew when it was time to end it, and speaking of Wendy's their new commercials now suck. With that red head who can't act, I'm sorry she can't act, telling everyone to go to Wendy's because it's better for them??? God oh mighty.

  KFC has changed their logo as well as their slogan many times. Finger lickin' Good is still being used, but there are other slogans used and the logo has definitely had a makeover. The coronal is still gracing his face on the KFC logo but it went from Kentucky Fried Chicken to KFC where people will just grab a chicken sandwich and say how much money they saved by buying it.
    Other logo changes can be for stores as well as TV logos as well. Sometimes good or bad, change is going to happen one way or another, but the most change happens in the food sales. Weather it be with a bag of Lays potato chips or Taco Bell tacos, it's just change. Weather good or bad, we gotta accept it, but eventually, it'll change again by logo and by slogan and we'll either love it or hate it all over again. Till then, ciao bloggers.

Birthdays

  First off why am I blogging about Birthdays??? Because everyone has a birthday and we don't want to admit it half the time. Sometimes, we don't care we have a birthday, and ironically, I am one of them...


     I am somewhat curious on other people's birthdays just to know their astrology signs and just to tell them who they share a birthday with, but with my birthday, I try to stay clear away from but when they ask about my birthday, I tell them when, and they are surprised to find out how close it is to the holiday season.
   Sometimes I am amazed at one day that has so many birthdays and I don't mean from celebrities.


   I blogged before about January 17th having the most birthdays of the month. They even say the date with the most birthdays is October 5th. But it depends on when a child is born. But a child is born every minute of the hour.


   Sometimes celebrating birthdays can be a celebration or somewhat not worth celebrating. When you're a kid, you want to have a birthday, you crave birthdays, you're happy about your birthday coming, but when you get older, like me, you rarely care.

    You just don't want to even acknowledge your birthday coming at all. Sure the presents and cake are nice but, getting older however, isn't a good thing. But they always say age is nothing but a number. Why am I blogging about birthdays... because birthday's mean somewhat special to me... not a lot but let's just say without birthdays we wouldn't even be born. Till then, Ciao Bloggers

RUGRATS the good the bad and why Ioved this cartoon

   First off if you don't know what Rugrats is then you didn't live much in the 90's. Rugrats is a cartoon that was about talking babies on Nickelodeon that started out in 1991 and ended in 2004. Spanded three movies (Two were good, the third one sucked)
   It tells a story a story about babies named Tommy, his baby brother Dil, his best friend Chuckie, twins Phil and Lil and the most bossiest child you will ever know in your entire life. ANGELICA PICKLES.  My mom always thought I was so much like her. Why? Mostly because I looked like her, and I acted like her too. Being so bossy.

   When the show started, Dil wasn't even around, it was just Tommy and his friends and Angelica, soon, they got Susie to tag along and she's pretty cool, she was about Angelica's age and always stood up for the babies. The adults are kind of like children too, mostly Tommy and Angelica's fathers (who ironically are brothers) who act kids. They have a grandpa (voiced by to actors, but we'll get to that part later) who was always watching the kids, but then would always fall asleep in front of the tv as the kids would cause trouble somewhere else. They would have awesome adventures and Angelica would try her best to ruin it by telling the adults, blaming the chaos on the babies and eventually she ends in trouble. So much like my life. LOL.


   The good side of it was the early episodes leading up to the first movie where Didi (who is Tommy's mom) revels that she is pregnant will Dil, then that's when it went down hill a little. The episodes were OK, but they weren't as funny as they were, they seemed a little bland. Don't know why I couldn't get into them that much but eventually they weren't too bad. Sadly on an episode called "Mother's day" It has been revealed that Chuckie's mother had died of cancer in a feature season (like maybe season one, I don't know nit picking here) so his dad tells him everything about his mom. Soon, Chas decides he wants to get married and that's where the second movie comes in but to somewhat an evil woman but then, it seems she doesn't love Chuckie's father and... you have to see the movie but soon we are introduced to another Rugrat, Chuckie's sister Kimi.

   Then, it went downhill and I couldn't take it anymore. It didn't have the fiiness that the 90's rugrats gave us. It wasn't funny, but what made it worse was the third movie, where they are in the jungle and let's just say having Bruce Willis voice Tommy's dog "Spike" not a smart idea.

    The voice acting on the other hand, was good to bad, how well we lost David Doyle, who use to voice Grandpa and was replaced with someone who does have the looney tunes today. NOT FUNNY! Another voice changing was from Chuckie. The original voice actor left for personal reason and we got Nancy Cartwright, the actress who voices Bart Simpson. I like Nancy Cartwright and all, but this isn't the roll for her, half the time, I don't know what Chuckie's saying. What is he saying?


    Well the worst of it all came in 2003 when Rugrats did the worst ever, they became teenagers in a new series called "All Grown up" WHAT THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING??? Why did these wonderful rugrats into depressed teenagers? They even aged the adults and half the time it looks as if they were getting face lifts, or their faces were melting. The voice actors were the same, I doubt they even wanted to do this, but for money, they'll do anything. Thank god it was short lived and ended in 2008.


  But in my opinion the best, was the classic 90's Rugrats before Dil came around, before the voice actors changed before ALL GROWN UP happened, I just stick with the classics. Why? Because that's me. Till then, Ciao bloggers? Have a great April.
