new word to use.....

last night a giant sand storm covered
Phoenix Arizona

 and several other towns

from this event
 the word of the day

 week

and maybe even month

has taken over the airwaves

HABOOB
.......

this is what a sand storm is called in the

Middle East
 as a couple of my readers know

Tammy?  :) :) :)

I was almost asleep when the husband

yelled at me to turn the

Weather Channel on

to see this awesome sight

I got up to see it on the

BIG screen!!!

and was truly amazed

(taken from the www)
it was 50 miles across and a mile and a half high

this morning it was a toss up between the

Haboob

and the

"baby killer"

from the "trial of the century" as they called it yesterday

I stuck with the

haboob

watching the hot-air heads going over and over the verdict

that they all said would be the opposite of what it is

just got my goat

trial

and there is no justice in this at all

I'm sure most of you won't know what the heck I'm talking about

but

I unfortunately got caught up in it

 "OJ" like

when I was couch bound the other week

a young mother accused of murdering her baby girl

 was found not guilty

and

we all know she is

but it doesn't matter what we think

it's the jury who decides and that decision stands forever

 because the court system works the way it does

the jury did what they were told to do

 and

the reasonable doubt was too strong for them not to find the way they did

the prosecution did a lousy job of proving their case

 and she walks

sickening and sad and unjust

for the baby who is no more

one of the lawyers on one of the many networks said

minutes after the verdict

 that Casey could go and stand on the steps of the courthouse

and confess to having committed the murder

and nothing could be done

no one could charge her with anything now

that's how it works

for all and everyone

a murderer can get away with it

and there is nothing anyone can do

it's what we call justice

and somehow it works

and somehow it doesn't

when it turns out the way you think it shouldn't

whatever happened let's hope

Karma comes into play

and someone, somewhere, sometime

pays for it

I am trying to find ways to use up some of the stash

I have too many ideas and not enough hands

it's grey and rainy and miserable

but it's hot hot hot

and it feels weird

the light is strange and it feels like fall

from the inside that is

outside it feels like

it's

HOT!!!!

hope you have a day free of

Haboobs

and

any other nastiness!!!
