Why the world still hates America and why American's hate Lawyers
I (Todd Charske) usually am not that hateful. Yesterday's lesson at Church was on kindness and forgiveness and yet I am here talking about these idiots in the news. Also..taking a break from Politics to keep my 1 Hawaiian reader happy. (funny hand wave and aloha to you Joe) So without further adieu and punctuational errors..here is my list of some things that make me wonder about this great country.
So. First. As a proud iPod owner and frequent user I was dismayed by this one. There is a guy a suing apple over his hearing lost from use of the iPod listening device. He contends that sufficient warnings to the iPods danger wasn't present. Moron. I dont ever recall anyone ever suing Sony over the Walkman. We were just happy in the 80's to have our cassette players and headphones all mobile in our fanny packs. (For the record, I never had a fanny pack.) Some of you all did. Read this lunacy here. - Todd Charske
Secondly..continuing with the "I am not responsible for me and I will sue" theme..this guy. This guy claims he was bullied by mean men. The mean men admit to teasing the guy and "razzing him". A safe workplace violation? No. School kids being mean in the classroom? No. Fraternity hazing incident? Nope. This crime occurred in a Chatroom. An interweb chatroom. On AOL. First thoughts. Why are people still using AOL? I thought we all decided to use those free disks for a retro/geek chic coffee cup coaster? So. Second thought. This guy was logged on into a chatroom..(I am a bit clueless how this works. I havent chatted since the telnet days in '94.) But..he is in a chatroom..these bullies that are 500 miles away are teasing him and he doesnt do an [alt f4] and get out of there? In the midst of being humiliated it never occurred to him to change rooms, log off, pick a new room, go to work, clean his mom's basement where he was probably living or go to the john? Geesh. Read the link above for the full story. - Todd Charske
Finally..Christians on my nerve. This week it has been circulating via Christian media of AOL committing blasphemy by their new logo for AOL instant messenger. First thought. Why are people using AOL instant messenger. Second thought..why are Christians using AOL instant messenger and why would they care. But apparently the new logo is something like AOL, I AM. Jesus when identifying himself as God used the phrase, I AM. God said it too in the old testament and the unwritten word that is written Yahweh translates to I Am. You know what...some greek philospher used it..Socrates..he thought..he was..so what. Was he calling himself God? I dont think so. Is AOL calling itself God. I hope not. We know they arent. [cough] Google [cough] free wifi [cough] AOL's days are over and this is just a blip on the screen for the aged internet giant. - Todd Charske
Why are Christians so quick to ban agaist AOL..or Target at Christmas..or theatres over a mediocre gay cowboy movie...yet we are slow to spread the message of Christ in love? Why are we quick to add a bumper sticker declaring God is my co-pilot..then retort that If God is your co-pilot you are in the wrong seat yet we are slowest to allow someone else infront of us while we are pulling out of the Christian bookstore? This gets me. Gets me bad. If we spent as much time loving folks..and loving Christ instead of spreading rumors about the Satan lair at P&G or whatever Christians are mad about this week..we would have won this world over years ago. This is so bad that Snopes has a category just for the religious urban legengs. Look here at Snopes.com - Todd Charske
For the full story about AOL's new logo and all..read it here at World Net Daily. Todd Charske
One last thing..who are the lawyers who would sue on behalf of these two guys? Tort Reform Now! Bigger than that..who are the juries that give a guy who played his iPod too loud a stack of cash?

Sorry so negative today it was a bad day for me. I think I'll stop and try again tomorrow.
You need to lighten up man. I understand the frustrations of your posts. We desperately need tort reform. It ain't gonna happen. Face it there are too many lawyers in the congress.
Get rid of the current non working congressmen an congresswomen and replace them with people who will do the job and then go home and get a real job as the founding fathers did.
Have you or do you listen to Bill Engvall? if not you should. He hates stupid people and believes they should all wear a sign so the rest of us wouldn't be able to sell them things to sue over.
As for why the world hates us it is because of the abundance we have here, the abundance of land, food, money etc. We are a glutenous country and we consume all that we can.
When you have children some are jealous of the others it is human nature. It is the same. When you have dictators that blame the glutenous Americans for their poverty and not the greedy dictators then the people believe what they have been told. It is not until they start trading with us and seeing that we work for what we have and own it and the government, used to not be able to take it away, without good cause and fair compensation.
When you look at the rich warlords who live in a tent with a lightbulb dangling from an eletrical line with dirt floors and a couch that no one in this country would even consider for outside furniture, one has to wonder what do the poor people live like?
The poor in our country have a microwave, food, a fridge, 2 tvs, a dvd player, a vcr, movies, dvds, cds, some have cable or sattilite, 2/3rds have a car and these are the ones on welfare here.
That breeds contempt and jealously. It is our abundance that we have that sets the stage for brain washing and hatred.
I know that with my two children, still at ages 22 and 23, that what I give one the others expects. They expect the same for their sons as well, each has one. Good thing they are only four months apart. Makes it much easier to remember what I bought one or the other.
Human nature is the problem and it will take some very strong willed politicians to turn back this tide of entitlements in this country.
Take care my friend. Beth. I will be keeping an eye on you. I don't want you busting a blood vessel or anything.
Have a nice weekend!!!
He look at the Todd Charske's in this site there's 3 different ones it couldn't possibly be the same person. This Todd Charske guy is mentally disturbed that's why lawyer's suck. No really I should get punitive damages for just writing this blog from Blogstream. Why not include the whole internet and every body on it. Actually I'll just settle out of court (which is the quest of most every lawyer I know -- little work for Big cash) So everybody that reads this please send me $4,000,000 and also send and e-mail to everybody in your e-mail address book and have them send an e-mail to every body in their address book and so on and so forth because it's obvious they are a part of the internet thus contributing to my punitive damages.
No really I spilled coffee on my lap. Where's Mcdonalds when you need them.
Do I have to hire a lawyer to do this and pay them 40% + expenses or will you guys all settle without including them?
Please accept my apologies and I will be happy to settle out of court with out an atty. I own nothing except for an ADHD dog and a cat that has seizures and gets too friendly with stuffed penguins.
I knew when I was typing it didn't sound right. So I deleted my message on your post, but I sent a PM to you that will sound absolutely crazy. Just delete it and I will hopefully retype it to the right person.
Boy do I feel blonde today. Maybe I should just go to bed and sleep it off.
Have a happy Easter. Beth.
I understand if it is too personal, just curious and since I have a cat you can understand, I have several lives as curiosity has gotten the better of me several times.
Take care my friend. Beth.
Here's the kicker the same lawyer filed suite against me with a different couple in which we settled out of court thinking it'd all go away a couple of months after we settled that suite he went searching for other people that we'd sold houses to and found not the guy we sold houses to (because he knows it was legite) but his wife that all she did was sign off her dowell (sp?) rights on the loan paperwork.
Now this lawyer is going aroung to everybody I am associated with in anyway and sending them a supeona. These people I didn't even know when I had this business that sold houses and it's hurting my current business relationships not to mention causing some pretty serious stress issues with me and my family.
His lips are moving.
whats the difference between a lawyer and a catfish?
One's a bottom feeding scumsucker, and the other's a fish.
These were both told to me by a lawyer who seemed rather proud of it. I used to work security in a building full of lawyers, and out of a dozen or so that I got to know over the 3 1/2 years there, the one who told me the jokes was the only one with any decency at all (we're still friends). Not that he didnt fight dirty, but he wouldnt handle cases like the bad ones you talked about, and if you were messing with one of his clients, you wanted to be up against anyone but him. I acknowledge what a rarity he is.

TOM CRUISE
IMPOSSIBLE III
KATIE HOLMES
TOM CRUISE isn't letting the media circus surrounding his personal life affect the release of MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III, insisting journalists who generate tabloid headlines are unhappy with their own lives. The star has been at the centre of a media frenzy since he started dating fiancee KATIE HOLMES last year (APR05), which reached a fevered pitch with the birth of their baby SURI last week (18APR06). He explains, "When I look at the people who write or say these things, I realise it's not a lot of people doing it. "It's just a few people, trying to take advantage of sensationalism." The actor claims a few interviewers have tried to bait him into combative statements or behaviour, but insists, "You just have to be who you are." He adds, "Because when I meet these people, they really seem unhappy to me. And that's too bad. Because I'm happy." The media glare has become so overwhelming recently that the star has been forced to have bodyguards accompany him to all of his press interviews. Cruise adds the attention, "seems to come in phases. This just seems a little more intense lately."

By the way the case was dismissed but it doesn't change my mind about lawyers!
- Todd Charske
What has a lawyer done to you to make you so bitter? Are Christians supposed to be bitter? I didn't think so......maybe I should do some take backs on some of the forgiveness I have done.
Well, since my father in law was a Christian lawyer and did so much pro bono work that he never made the normal six and seven figure incomes that many lawyers make today (once he even did some legal work for a pan of lasagna from the Italian mama down the street) I guess I have a different view of lawyers. My nephew (who just happens to bear his name, is not a Christian but just moved from Colorado to NYC to work in the Public Defenders office. I guess the family tradition continues.
I think instead of judging whole people groups, or whole business groups by a few bad apples you would be wise to look at individuals individually the way God does. You did say you were a Christian, right?
Good points I have to admit! I guess I'm generalizing all lawyers as the same. I guess there's is a good possibility that a few have a smidgen of goodness in them. I apologize for the generalization. I change everything I said to "most" lawyers instead of all lawyers!

Now, Todd, did Little POH say that she likes Teletubbies? Did I actually SAY I liked Teletubbies?
I donnnnn't THINK so!!!!!!
Now, Toddersky (remember, I only give ya a nickname if I like ya!
this is how you show love?????
Okaaaaay, I'll cut you some slack..........it IS Valentine's Day and people get squirrely on Valentine's Day...........and you're a GUY, right?
I'm wierd all the time not just on certain days!
I think you've gotten weirder since you've been on the blogstream.......
That's okay though cuz I think I have too........oh, I didn't just say that, did I?
Well, weirder isn't the right tense...........like you, I've always been a little weird.............maybe I'm just feeling more at home!
- Todd Charske
OK I'll agree there's an occasional good lawyer. Of course everybody that knows a lawyer automatically thinks that person is a "good guy". Of course with 8 gozillion (scientific values ofcourse) lawyers out there everybody knows at least one lawyer. I'm also sure that lawyers feel that they are doing something good . . Even if it is filling their pockets with cash by playing the system. SO . . . .
Here it is and I'll only say it once and then deny it the rest of my life?!?!?!
Some lawyers are good.
For instance my cousin (yes I'm related to one also!) She quit the big firm in Chicago, moved to a depressed area, and now does work for those that can't afford to pay her. She has the luxary of being married and her husband supports them, but still the work she does is motivated by a greater calling NOT JUST MONEY. I also have to admint I wouldn't be able to do what she does, mostly because I wouldn't move my family to the area she lives (not to mention I don't have a law degree)
Saying that I'm in sales and the work I do is motivated by money but I try to keep in perspective who I'm really working for? ? _________ Anybody want to guess who that is? Hint: It's not my boss, not myself, not my family, and certainly not a lawyer!
- Todd Charske
Good thing Little POH has a BIG memory!
I told you never to repeat that?!?!?!
I didn't say it did I?!?!?!
I won't repeat it until the most opportune time!
Good thing I copied and pasted it!
Taking advantage of me?!?!?!
You must be a lawyer?!?!?!
Nah, Little POH is just a common housewife...........
on the other hand, I do have a few lawyers in the family..............
both sides!

Yeah, I bet you DID like that!
And I bet she'll do it again tonight, won't she?

"You made the world so that it was not fair, and you made it so that most people would have to struggle every day, fight against their innate wishes and desires, and deal with all sorts of losses, grief, disasters, and catastrophes. Yet people worship and adore you. People fight, get arrested, and cheat each other, and I get blamed, even when it is not my fault. Sure, I'm not perfect, but give me a break. Can't you do something to make them stop blaming me?"
And so God created lawyers.

I should run for president but in reality there are way too many people out there the media could grab on to that would make my life miserable and kill my campaign, plus I have no idea what's going on in the world because I don't watch t.v. or listen to the radio. I'm just happy with the freedom to vote I guess. Although there's no real candidate in my opinioin for the next presidency. Ruddy says he's replublican but on the major issues he differs. Although in reality that's the way it should be, people should say "This is what I believe in . . " regardless of what the party they are in believes! That's why Ross Perot made a run at it. WOW - you'd think I followed politics with all that. My parents actually call me if there is something big going on in the world that I need to know (in their opinion). Most of it I don't need to know.

Stay with this -- the answer is at the end. It will blow you away.
One evening a grandson was talking to his grandfather about current events.
The grandson asked his grandfather what he thought about the shootings at schools, the computer age, and just things in general.
The Grandfather replied, "Well, let me think a minute, I was born before:
'television
'penicillin
'polio shots
'frozen foods
'Xerox
'contact lenses
'Frisbees and
'the pill
There were no:
'credit cards
'laser beams or
'ball-point pens
Man had not invented:
'pantyhose
'air conditioners
'dishwashers
'clothes dryers
'and the clothes were hung out to dry in the fresh air and
'man hadn't yet walked on the moon
Your Grandmother and I got married first, . . and then lived together.
Every family had a father and a mother.
Until I was 25, I called every man older than me, "Sir".
And after I turned 25, I still called policemen and every man with a title, "Sir."
We were before gay-rights, computer- dating, dual careers, daycare centers, and group therapy.
Our lives were governed by the Ten Commandments, good judgment, and common sense.
We were taught to know the difference between right and wrong and to stand up and take responsibility for our actions.
Serving your country was a privilege; living in this country was a bigger privilege.
We thought fast food was what people ate during Lent.
Having a meaningful relationship meant getting along with your cousins.
Draft dodgers were people who closed their front doors when the evening breeze started.
Time-sharing meant time the family spent together in the evenings and weekends-not purchasing condominiums.
We never heard of FM radios, tape decks, CDs, electric typewriters, yogurt, or guys wearing earrings.
We listened to the Big Bands, Jack Benny, and the President's speeches on our radios.
And I don't ever remember any kid blowing his brains out listening to Tommy Dorsey.
If you saw anything with 'Made in Japan ' on it, it was junk
The term 'making out' referred to how you did on your school exam.
Pizza Hut, McDonald's, and instant coffee were unheard of.
We had 5 &10-cent stores where you could actually buy things for 5 and 10 cents.
Ice-cream cones, phone calls, rides on a streetcar, and a Pepsi were all a nickel.
And if you didn't want to splurge, you could spend your nickel on enough stamps to mail 1 letter and 2 postcards.
You could buy a new Chevy Coupe for $600, . . . but who could afford one?
Too bad, because gas was 11 cents a gallon.
In my day:
'"grass" was mowed,
'"coke" was a cold drink,
'"pot" was something your mother cooked in and
'"rock music" was your grandmother's lullaby.
'"Aids" were helpers in the Principal's office,
'" chip" meant a piece of wood,
'"hardware" was found in a hardware store and
' "software" wasn't even a word.
And we were the last generation to actually believe that a lady needed a husband to have a baby. No wonder people call us "old and confused" and say there is a generation gap... and how old do you think I am?
I bet you have this old man in mind...you are in for a shock!
Read on to see -- pretty scary if you think about it and pretty sad at the same time.
Are you ready ?????
This man would be only 59 years old
I thought this cool

Good Morning Todd
I had a few drinks but not too much, some of the meds I take don’t mix well.
Have a great day.
