Anything BUT Anna

ANYTHING BUT ANNA!

QV has agreed to put up a weekly column to talk about ANYTHING BUT ANNA.

With this column I hope others will share their thoughts on Current Events, Entertainment, Other news related stories like the Sandra Cantu and Casey Anthony cases. Share recipes, talk about books you are reading or have read. Music you listen too. American idol and other television shows. ANYTHING BUT ANNA!

Rules: (Only two)
1. RESPECT. Many have differing opinions in life. So we ask that though you have a different opinion of someone else discuss it in a Mature fashion and Be Respectful.
Name calling, Vulgar and vile comments will not be tolerated and WILL be removed.

2. Discussion is to be  ANYTHING BUT ANNA! (This includes People, Lawyers, Investigations/Cases/Lawsuits anything that has to do with Anna).

Someone I consider a friend wrote in an email to me recently “That saga has run my life and feelings for too long, and I decided to not let any of them have any more power to run my life as that is what was happening to all of us”.

I will follow in my friends path. Ill check on it occasionally like I have and I will not comment on it.

I will continue to hope and Pray that Justice is served for Anna and Daniel and most of all for Dannielynn may she have the love of all those who truly loved her mother, the chance to know her Grandma (Grandmothers are voices of the past) and that she grows into a beautiful well adjusted young lady. That said………

NOW lets talk ANYTHING BUT ANNA!

1 good idea April 21, 2009 at 2:50 PM

Mish, that sounds like a great idea but the name of the blog might make it hard to move forward. Best of luck

Well I guess I’ll be the first to post here. It’s regarding the Blago indictment. I’m glad a judge in Chicago has ruled against Blago going to Costa Rica to film that reality show he was asked to be on “I’m a celebrity… Get me out of here.”

Watched this on FoxNews Chicago at noon and experts were weighing in that this man does not seem to understand the seriousness of these charges against him. Something is wrong with this man’s mind I think.

Can you believe she was a Marine?

I’m almost exhausted trying to, or typing like madness for the sake of those that have passed and wishing mostly good will for mankind.

This is going to be good, ’cause I’ve read the comments of ‘The Others’ that come here to.

5 freida1 April 21, 2009 at 3:41 PM

I wonder if I could convince you to change the word ‘BUT’ to ‘INCLUDING?’

6 freida1 April 21, 2009 at 4:06 PM

Pisses me off what some people think ‘beautiful’ means.

Do you know how easy ’tis to be led by one, or a so-called majority.

It is really difficult to understand what you ‘perceive’ (of course it’s a ‘matter of rule’ that the ‘e’ comes first)…

“IT’S WHAT YOU FEEL AND TOUCH”

I stole that from a nicely written eulogy for someone special once-upon-a-time.

7 freida1 April 21, 2009 at 4:26 PM

I want to have myself a hay day.

And lots of oats.

Reminds me that we don’t own words that yet, that can truly express.

So, we got stuck with ‘touch’ and ‘feel.’

Seems, so far, this is the best we could do.

Reminds me of 3 very impressive catalogs I’m looking at right now…

One is ‘Draper’s $ Damon’s,’ and of course ‘L.L.Bean’ and ‘Coldwater Creek’ is pretty tempting with 30% off and free shipping (almost looks fresh squeezed).

Seems pretty pictures and things are nice to have and especially useless.

Our perception of everything is ‘contorted’ to some kind of recognition.

Only buy what you need or really, truly what you feel you’re worth deserving.

Sunscapes, lasting quality, and that always tempting ambition to own what you really can’t efford…and no wonder it’s 30% off..

8 freida1 April 21, 2009 at 4:32 PM

Sure is nice Obama bailing all ‘THAT BIZ’ out…

Let me tell you debt is pure misery.

And, not to mention the guilt some never feel personally, living off the debt of ‘those others’ living in misery.

Thanks, sometimes if people just get tired of talking about Anna and the whole saga (or its a slow news day) and would like to talk about other things. Here they can talk about things with people they “know” and feel comfortable with.

I have to admit I havent kept up with that story. When I see him I chuckle he just seems so Goofy and his hair reminds me of Trump. Ill try to read up on him or you could fill me in some.

That was a nice video. When I think of a Marine I think of one BARKING out an order not having a beautiful voice like that.
As far as what you are wondering, Not a chance :)

Was she formally charged? I wonder the same. If she did have it on her record they should have done a CORI to begin with it would have picked up on it. Themn again if the family knew I dont think a CORI would have mattered.
I read earlier today a story of the other little girls family claiming that.
Has anything been said of her own child?

20 Good News April 21, 2009 at 6:56 PM

I’ll have to catch Nancy Grace at a later hour after American Idol.She will talk about Huckaby.Probably.

26 Mish April 21, 2009 at 7:03 PM

vee I mean with the other child. Why I asked was if she was and had a record of sorts it would have been a BRIGHT RED FLAG if proper procedure was done with a CORI.

27 Mish April 21, 2009 at 7:04 PM

Read this. This is so sad that the cop didn’t take a report file a report. Obviously the child was taken or the police wouldn’t have been called to report her missing. The grandmother found out and called Melissa and I guess let her know people were looking for that child.

Even if the mom would have been accused of the child getting her meds which it wasn’t the case, it should have been reported. I guess the cop thought he was doing the mom a favor but Melissa did admit that they came and talked to her. Guess this whole Sunday School Teacher lie worked and the media is still saying that she taught Sunday school. I read that they Church hasn’t had any services there for several years.

NBC: Disappointed but not moving show for fmr. gov
The Associated Press
Tuesday, April 21, 2009 4:59 PM EDT
CHICAGO (AP) — NBC says it’s disappointed indicted former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich can’t go to Costa Rica to tape a reality TV show but it isn’t moving the show to the U.S. to accommodate him.

A federal judge in Chicago has denied the ousted governor’s request to leave the country to tape NBC’s “I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here!”

Blagojevich has pleaded not guilty to a host of federal corruption charges. His bond doesn’t let him leave the country.

Still, Blagojevich had asked to go to Costa Rica for the show, which is similar to “Survivor.”

An attorney representing Blagojevich’s brother in the corruption case says NBC had been contacted about possibly moving the show.

NBC says in a statement, “There are no plans to move the show” a U.S. location.

This is him leaving court.

Did Alleged Killer of Sandra Cantu Abduct Another Little Girl?
http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20273817,00.html
Sandra Cantu may not have been the first young girl that accused killer Melissa Huckaby abducted at her Tracy, Calif., mobile home park.

43 Mish April 21, 2009 at 11:06 PM

vee
This stands out
About five hours later, the girl’s mother took her to the hospital, and police were called back once a doctor determined that the girl was under the influence of Benzodiazepines, a muscle relaxant.

“Her speech was slurred, she could barely walk, she could barely stand,” said the older sister of the young girl.

Didnt the Police notice anything? Strange that the girl was ok when located or did they miss that. Unless she took the medication right before Police showed up.

Mish, thanks for that update and this link, great find. I’ve heard that he is seriously having money problems and could even loose his house. This show was going to pay him somewhere in the neighborhood of 300,000 dollars as people are saying “he is getting desperate in his financial situation.”

He is such an idiot though. Every time he comes out of the courthouse at the Dirksen Federal Building in Chicago (his arraignment day and his motion today) he acts like he is a rock star and its sickening to me.

51 vee April 22, 2009 at 9:46 AM

ish think thepolice were afraid to use their right to explore the situation. Maybe because her grandfather is the preacher, and friends of most around there. BUT the grand daughter was living with them for a reason, and I wonder what that was. Was it because they knew more about her, and did not trust her with her own daughter. They did have on going services, and Melissa was right there surounded by all of her little potential victims. The grandfather and mother should have known better, and I would guess, the church is done with, no matter what he has to say.Anyway I would hope so, and i would say a law suit could be made against the church and him for letting her around the children, I just saw on the new there are 400,000 registered sex affenders in the churches inside the United States, and 1 out of every 25 report child abuse. SCARY

52 vee April 22, 2009 at 9:57 AM

http://cbs13.com/local/church.background.checks.2.990900.html I wonder why the background checks were not a priority,BEFORE the Cantu case. Make a person wonder. A little too late, for Sandra and her family anyway. We are going to take a ride this week end to Tracy and donate to the family.We did go put some flowers and a little bear on her monument when she first disappeared, it was sooo sad even if you never knew her.

56 freida1 April 22, 2009 at 5:07 PM

So, absorbed and thinkin’ about that name Huckabee!

Reminds me of “Shawshank Redemption” and that word, oh what the heck was it…

Oh yeah…

Obtuse!

57 freida1 April 22, 2009 at 5:22 PM

Ms. ‘H,’
I enjoyed listening to that ‘YouTube’ link…

That one sure has a voice.

Funny how things look, not always what you expect.

Takes a lotta’ guts to roar!

Reminds me of a teacher I had once…

Her name was Misses Roar.

So, many get abbreviated these days.

Sure wish I had played better, or someone noticed.

It’s all about doing what you love, and loving what you do…

Yet, not…

It has more to do with someone else ‘paying you’ some recognition…

Otherwise you might never know what it ‘is’ ‘is.’

58 freida1 April 22, 2009 at 5:25 PM

REWRITE…

“Otherwise you will never know what ‘IS’ means.

59 freida1 April 22, 2009 at 5:42 PM

It’s all about ‘the law of the land’…

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mrs.

Spare me ‘the title’ I rather liked my ‘maiden’ name.

Although guess I’m ‘better off’ than I would’ve been…

Know I don’t wonder about this…I know it’s the plain and simple truth.

Women continue to take a back seat and ride ‘side saddled’…

Reminds me of a ‘Judge’s’ name…

‘course guess he’s a ‘side kick’ instead.

Meanwhile did anyone read the obituaries today?

“Who’s Who?” and “Who cares?”

Reminds me of ‘tracking’ land holders, or anything else…

Meanwhile it’s getting worse, now we’ve got ‘BLOG NAMES.’

Jane knows…wonder how she’s been?

I’m sure she’s still as serious as a heartbeat.

I do miss her but then again, I can always…

Huff and puff.

Pretty sure there’s a great man making his living ‘behind’ that.

Good with a fresh veg…and I’m not talkin’ ’bout the frozen or ‘bagged’ ones.

Would it not be nice to know what’s for real?

Or would it really be boring.

Doesn’t matter ’cause a few ‘very, good men’ think they know what is best for all of us.

Yet if I were queer or gay.
Yet if I weer queer or grey.
Or if I had a family that didn’t care….

“I would rather fight than switch”

So one and and so forth…

Reminds me of inflation and that ‘artificial balloon.’

Sure are a lot of babies.

63 freida1 April 22, 2009 at 8:46 PM

The fact is…

A baby is a real live human being.

Seems a minority would rather forsake their heir, or heritage and goforth…

pretending that black is white or black is purple and yet…

I know I couldnt do any volunteer work at my daughters school until my Cori was renewed.Someone dropped the ball on that. Then again her grandfather being the Preacher didnt do it thinking he knew his granddaughter. The only thing any background check would only show up if she was charged and convicted. So if it is all things coming out now even doing a CORI would not have helped. Scares a parent with young children.

I hope your Grass is okay. Maybe if you sprinkle Grass seed and keep it watered it might help. Be careful installing that fan. make sure you use the bracket that holds it into the ceiling. I have a friend who installed one herself and didnt use the bracket she put the fan on and the vibration losened it and BANG!!! I dont know how an educated woman could be so stupid :)…..LOL. I DID hug my son I was so happy to see him. Good to have him home. We went to pick up his Tux and he tried it on OH MY he looked so grown up and Handsome. He was looking at himself and says with a grin geeez didnt think I could look so good. I said to the woman Im glad we decided on the Tux instead of his suit. he looks good in the suit but the Tux makes it so much nicer.

Lucy, have you tried Walmart, Kmart or those type of places? Or If you have a TJ Maxx, they have nice separates but its random. Sometimes they have certain items in stock and then not others.
If you want to look online, there is Overstock.com and Buy.com. UM, we have a Bed Bath and Beyond. Kind of expensive but good selections. One more. Burlington Coat Factory? I love that place. I know what you are talking about. You want your dish towels and dish rags to match. I gotcha. If I see something else, Ill let you know.

77 Lucy April 24, 2009 at 6:02 PM

QV, I have checked Walmart, Kmart, Target, Bed, Bath and Beyond and all the dollar stores. I used to buy some at Fred’s Dollar Store but they’ve joined the “pot holder” gang. If I ever find them again I’m going to really, REALLY stock up. lol

78 Lucy April 24, 2009 at 7:34 PM

One more thing! lol

For the last few days I’ve gotten emails from people I have no clue who they are. They are usually just a cute cartoon or something, and are always from women who act like they know who I am. I know that a lot of people here have my email address, and I love emails but IF one of you should send me one please put your screen name somewhere so I’ll know it’s from a friend.

Another possibility is that a few people I email with send these “chain letter” emails with about forty other names on them. I always delete any name other than the person to whom I’m sending, but it seems they don’t take the hint. Next thing you know up pops another email with enough names to fill a church. Maybe they’re just emailing everyone on the list they have.

QV the grass looks a little pale. I did damage, but I aint coppin to it. I did spread seed to day, and hope it takes soon. But the good new, is the weeds are dying too. I > If anyone wants dish towels, the dollar stoore has a lot of them. Me I like white towels, so I can bleach them all together. I but the packs of washcloths, and use half for my dishes, and the other half where they belong. When I have had them for a ling time, and they are really dingy, I use them for cleaning. I buy the bunch of hand towels and use them for wiping dishes.. they are really inexpensive . I but the white cheap towels at Walmart, because they are thin, I do not like the fat fluffy towels.i have a robe like that. I buy the biggest ones for the bath, they are about 4.00 But i put some nice ones out for no one to use.I can’t remember the last time I dried me or anything with a colored towel. I can also see off I got all the dirt off when I dry me. I hate to spend money for those kinds of things. Even my puppies have white towels . So I guess I must be a nut, but i sure have a lot of people around me who have started doing the same thing. No more dark linty towels for me.

I get those types of e-mails too.Most I delete without reading.

81 QV April 25, 2009 at 12:37 AM

Lucy, good luck with your search. Vee has an interesting solution. Where I live our water is horrible and I’m always on the lookout for dark dish towels. They are hard to find but perhaps I should take Vee’s advice and get all white and just bleach them all the time.

82 Lucy April 25, 2009 at 5:30 PM

I just really like pretty dishtowels. I do agree with vee about the thinner towels. I like thin bath towels ad especially thin wash cloths. I want to be able to wash my ears! And vee, I also have the thirsty towels for show. Sometimes I notice that they have a tiny line of dust on the fold. lol
QV, if your water is bad I’m betting that your white towels would still look a bit dingy even after the bleaching. The final rinse water would still be yucky.

Have you read ‘the labels’ lately.

Seems most of the time you’re not supposed to use ‘real’ bleach.

I like the pretty colored towels for display. Yet, for my personal use (especially for little ears) I like them thin, and colorless.

Seems although we may disagree sometimes we have something in common.

What about ‘Big Lots!’

85 freida1 April 25, 2009 at 10:01 PM

Wonder if this will ‘fly’…

What about Anna’s?

They’ll match any price, including Linens ‘n Thangs.

87 freida1 April 26, 2009 at 9:39 PM

BIG WAVE BACK!

Forgot to mention Marshalls.

Just an offshoot from Sears and Kmart…probably ‘third lots.’

Just check the flaws…some are minor.

Reminds me of a song.

And never forget Pier I. You just never know what you’ll find there.

88 vee April 26, 2009 at 10:01 PM

I do’nt know what to do with all of the STUFF in my garage, that i packed over here from my bigger house. I seem to be getting along fione without it. i wonder if i will miss anything if I JUST CLOSE MY EYES AND LET IT ALL GO. I tried to go through some of it today, but I was not interested. I think i may need the spaggiti sauce for tonight. Bit there is so much other things, . Oh well, I sleep on it I guess. My grass looks crappy. I think I will gwt somwe gren paint and paint it, untill it gets healthy . Good idea huh??

89 freida1 April 27, 2009 at 12:09 AM

TOM KRISHER

Now who is he?

Someone mighty important of praise, or remember Dan Rather, and what’s that name…Oh yeah..

Harry Reasner (sp?)….

And Let’s just remember that Hindu.

I think I need to go dig through my attic and find that ‘White Album.’

Gosh, and to think when I was young I wanted a chest.

I was like a ‘triple A’ ’til I was almost 35.

Then that’s not the truth, I was probably at least a ‘B’…

AND NOW I WISH I WAS FLAT!!!

Reminds me of a song.

The same thing happened with us. When we moved to our new house I was working full time and when i was home the last thing I wanted to do was unpack boxes. If I needed something I went out and bought it, Eventually I did go through everything alot I donated to homeless shelters some stuff I had a yard sale and made a few dollars.
There is a company that paints grass green(not the spray stuff with seed) this is actual painting. It is used alot for homes for sale for “curb appeal”.
Today is nice, unlike the HOT weekend we had. I slept alot my allergies were really bad. Today Isnt to bad. Its dryer and cooler. Hubby took the day off and is out doing yard work.
My son had a good time at his Prom, he looked so handsome in his Tux. His date looked very pretty. Next up is graduation time. My daughter has a band concert and a play for theater club that she is in. So we will be busy.

Hey Karissa
{{{{{wave back at ya}}}}}
Adam does Rock!! I wonder who will go this week?
Have you seen the 12 year old competition that Susan Boyle has?

Anyone reading any good books?
I have been reading “the Mighty Queens of Freeville” and the town that raised them. By Amy Dickinson. I love it its pretty witty.
The Mighty Queens of Freeville: A Mother, a Daughter, and the Town That Raised Them is a memoir by Amy Dickinson, the author of the syndicated advice column Ask Amy. It was released on february 3rd, 2009 by Hyperion Books.

On the publication date, Dickinson appeared on Good Morning America and the following day she appeared on The View to promote the memoir, which chronicles her experiences with divorce and single motherhood and her life in a family that is predominantly made up of women. The Mighty Queens in the title refer to her mother, aunts and sisters. Dickinson also went on a book tour to promote the memoir, making stops all over the country. A full schedule of her tour is available on her book’s website, listed below.

On february 22nd, 2009, the book debuted on The New York Times bestseller list at number sixteen, tied with Barack Obama’s inauguration address.

I sent you both[3] the link to the 10yr. old from Britain, My brother sent it to me, after i sent him the Susan Boyle one. I haven’t watched it yet. But I still watch Susan’s a lot. inspiring to say the least.It is too windy today to go out side. I got all my clothes hung in the closets. i have a humongous closet in my bed room, that is a big plus.I bought a security door for my front, and it will be installed tomorrow. I picked out a ceiling fan for my bedroom I have to go pick up, and a built in glass door for my tub and shower. I hate that curtain in there. If there is a little breeze, the curtain flutters in onto my legs, and is cold has hell. So away with it.I bought a 7×7 shed for my outdoors to put all my yard tools in. and any boxes that will fit. I have so many tools, I am going to sell. I won’t be using big saws anymore or chain saws. I like my battery run ones. Any way my son in Benica and his wife got the flu really bad. She came back from Russia last week and the plane had 33 kids blowing and hacking in it, so 4 days later she got sick, then 2 days ago my son came down with it. I will call tonight to see of i need to go there. Well, to feed my puppies, is the next step. see ya gals

95 Good News April 27, 2009 at 9:16 PM

Vee
I hope they do not have that SWINE FLU.

96 vee April 27, 2009 at 9:40 PM

I am thinking that may be what they have, They are pretty sick. And more people around ca. are getting it, It is just over spring break, and droves of kids went there , so many are sick now.

97 vee April 27, 2009 at 9:44 PM

Sorry, I forget, that everyone is not close to Mexico for spring break. that is where most of the kids go there at that time, so they are coming home with the bug.

98 freida1 April 27, 2009 at 9:58 PM

Has anyone read ‘the instructions’ and ‘warnings’ lately”

99 Lucy April 27, 2009 at 11:16 PM

Oh Lord, someone mentioned cleaning out the garage. I have the whole garage full of left over craft supplies and display equipment. I am ready to take the whole shebang to the landfill but every time I mention it my husband starts talking about a yard sale. No thank you. Half the people who visit yard sales here have to go to the bathroom. Of course, that’s to get inside your house. And many of them have a whole gaggle of kids with them and they all need to pee, so what are you going to do? I say, take that crap and dump it! If I can ever catch him gone, and my son on an off day (from work) I’m going to get rid of about half of it by calling the kid to come help me load up.

100 Mish April 28, 2009 at 9:59 AM

Lucy
You should look into a After school program or summer camp for kids. Something like the YMCA or Boys and girls club. You could even see if your town sponsors a summer arts and craft program Donate it all. Call the school see if the Art dept. might like to take it off your hands.

Vee
I hope they are feeling better soon. Be sure they dont brush it off as just “the flu”. Better safe than sorry. You should keep your distance too until they are both well.
