This is hysterical. As a liberal I love the craziness of the right wing. So amusing.
LONDON (AP) — Tens of thousands of people have signed a petition calling for British CNN host Piers Morgan to be deported from the U.S. over his gun control views.
Morgan has taken an aggressive stand for tighter U.S. gun laws in the wake of the Newtown, Connecticut, school shooting. Last week, he called a gun advocate appearing on his “Piers Morgan Tonight” show an “unbelievably stupid man.”
Now, gun rights activists are fighting back. A petition created Dec. 21 on the White House e-petition website by a user in Texas accuses Morgan of engaging in a “hostile attack against the U.S. Constitution” by targeting the Second Amendment. It demands he be deported immediately for “exploiting his position as a national network television host to stage attacks against the rights of American citizens.”
The petition has already hit the 25,000 signature threshold to get a White House response. By Monday, it had 31,813 signatures.
Morgan seemed unfazed — and even amused — by the movement.
In a series of Twitter messages, he alternately urged his followers to sign the petition and in response to one article about the petition said “bring it on” as he appeared to track the petition’s progress.
“If I do get deported from America for wanting fewer gun murders, are there any other countries that will have me?” he wrote.

Thanks to OKC, Nola, NY, and Key West. Great Sunday! Memphis was painful. What riding a mechanical bull isn’t considered holiday celebrating in Memphis?
It just hit me today. This is the first year in many years I have no boyfriend and no New Years Eve plan . Plus Jackson will be with his dad that day. What to do?

The only reason I can think of for the disastrous numbers all across the country is that most people were in their apocalypse bunkers and didn’t head out to one of My bars. I don’t think , in the history of the bars, that have I ever seen a Friday night that had numbers so god awful. Painful.

Today being the last day of the world I did a few important things. I exercised. I refinanced my house and my niece and I had a great spa day. Now a good meal with a nice wine enjoying my offspring and niece. Good way to go out. ( jackson doesn’t feel showering and shampooing is essential for last day activities . Fine go out stinking and having greasy hair).
Nashville bar started selling Coyote Ugly Whiskey! So exciting

Back home. Took an ambien last night and slept 7 hours. Woke up today feeling a bit better. Just looked in the mirror I seem to have hives all over. The body can only take so much.
Today my son hit a milestone! All by himself he carried our Christmas tree in the house. I love that kid!
My niece arrives in town today. I set up spa appointments for us tomorrow. I can expect a voicemail from my sister in a few days “God damn it Liliana. Now she will expect spa days from me.” My only niece, I have to spoil her.

From Daniel: Does Pinky have the highest maintenance in the company? Did hell freeze over? Are the Mayans really right?
I am in my hotel room laughing so hard that I must of woken the neighbors.
Thanks Daniel. Nothing better then laughter in the morning.

Sorry New Orleans for missing the staff Christmas party.
LA was good. Lets see if we can get the lease for the space. In San Diego right now. I absolutely love the Gas Lamp district. Ok let’s see what I can find. I am wiped out!

NY bar rocked yesterday! Congrats! The best night in the history of the bar! Santa bar crawl ! Excellent. Heading to LA. Another night of barely any sleep. My body is shakey. Starbucks is needed pronto

Bam ! With a bit of persistence I just got my credit score up to 763!
Today I received an email that I moved from a Delta Platinum Elite Skymiles member to the Diamond skymiles member. Don’t know why but I feel proud of my new Diamond status. A lot of work went into those miles. Heading to LA tomorrow.
So sad about the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School. I can’t even imagine what some of those parents are going through.

Haven’t slept more then 3 hours a night in about a week. No sleep makes me so irritable . Urgh

My friend and I are in Park City, Utah. Last night we went to a local bar in town. two brothers came over to speak to us. One was a financial analyst who was recently separated. The other brother started a foundation in India to save Children. As the conversation progressed the foundation brother said ” you guys should come to India and help out.” I said ” how about we skip India and save some kids in Bora Bora or Paris.”
That didn’t go over too well.
I learned a few things from that moment. 1. I am not a good wingman. 2. People who save children aren’t very funny and 3. Maybe I will research charities that do run out of exotic places like Bora Bora.

” mom can you sign my test?…. Aren’t you going to say something ?” ” jackson, you got a B in your best subject. I’m not punishing you for a B but I am certainly not going to jump for joy.” That was last night’s conversation. A Graded B in a subject that he struggles in would warrant a congrats. But not in his best subject when he has received As all year. Urgh
Last year the conversation would of ended with, ” you are right mom. I will try harder.” In the teenage years the conversation ended in ” mom you don’t care about anything but As. I don’t know why I expected more from you.” I held my tongue after that comment.
This morning is a new day. Today on the 12th of December my son exceeds me in height and weight! Excellent .
Trying to get a mortgage. My god they are putting me through the ringer.

Reality is at the library! Jackson asked to be enrolled in an art class specific to comics. The class is held at the main New Orleans library. And he is by far the youngest student in attendance. I am sitting in the library reading while I secretly ( not sure how secretly) look around at the cross section of people. What I see and what actually is may be different. But my interpretation of what I see is graduate students and the homeless. There are two gentlemen sitting at the table next to me. Looking a bit disheveled. I overheard one of them telling the other that he is not looking forward to getting back into the cold weather . I would assume they spend their day here reading , staying out of the elements until the library closes and then they have to go back outside and find alternate shelter. Reality hit me in the library! Yesterday I was living the dream, driving someone’s Maserati feeling cool but today I am at the library seeing the lives of regular people. Very humbling. It’s the Holidays and it is a time for giving. Nothing more empowering then giving to others so I will give.

Today was a first. I have a friend who has some money. People with money know people with money. That being said she was driving a friend’s car. ” Have you ever driven a Maserati?” I didn’t say this but I am not sure if I had ever seen a Maserati before today.( movies and print ads being the exception) Not only did she let me drive it but I got pulled over on the highway. I learned today that Maserati’s have built in police jammers. So the car automatically jammed the policeman’s speed gun. When he pulled me over I was wondering what his charge would be. ” No front license plate”. He then started asking us questions about our education and work titles. ” How can you afford this car?” I just dont give off the money aire because he immediately turned and asked her the majority of the questions even though I was driving. LOL I got off with a written warning.

The Comicon people told us that it would take a full week before our photos with The Walking Dead cast were downloadable on line. I just imputted our ticket stubs and low and behold I am 50 lbs heavier and a different ethnicity. My son’s picture as well is no where to be found. Annoying. I will say that the woman who supposedly is me, while a bit chunkier then me, seemed very happy.
Bars did alright. New Orleans and Nashville had Santa pub crawls. When I get some pictures I will post.
