Dump Your Baby and Run.....

Link: Newborn Baby Found on Doorstep

Police said they were investigating the discovery of a baby wrapped in blankets on the doorstep of a Montgomery County home.
The discovery was made at 9:30 p.m. Thursday on the 1900 block of Guernsey Avenue in Abington Township.
Police are searching for the infant's parents.
The woman who found the child reported that she was walking her dog and, as she returned home, thought she heard cats fighting. She put the dog in her house and asked her husband to check on the noise.
The husband then discovered the baby wrapped in blankets on the doorstep of a nearby home.
Abington police responded and determined that the home's residents were not aware the baby was there and no one in the neighborhood knew where the baby came from or to whom he belonged.
Lauren, who declined to use her last name, said she has no idea whom the baby belonged to or why someone would leave a 2-day-old infant on her grandmother's front stoop.
"My first thought, I said, 'Oh, it's a baby. Oh my god,'" Lauren said. "I was like OK there has to be a note. So I find it and I read it aloud to everyone."
A note on the boy read, "Can you please take to the hospital. It's not that I dont love you I just can't take care of you I love you [sic]".
Investigators said they don't think the baby was born in a hospital. He was wrapped in blankets and is in good health despite being left in the cold Thursday night.
Police said the baby is a newborn black male and appears to be healthy despite the fact that he may have been outside in 34-degree weather for up to one hour.
"It was 34 degrees outside last night. That's cold for a newborn," Abington Police Chief John Livingood said.
Second Alarmers Rescue Squad of Willow Grove immediately transported the baby a half-block to Abington Memorial Hospital.
Police said they were bothered by the fact that the home the baby was left at is less than a block from Abington Hospital, which is also next to the police and fire departments.
"Had the mother brought this baby in to a police station and done so, we'd have taken the baby in, no questions asked," Livingood said.
Instead, police said they have a number of questions like who are the parents, who bought the baby's blue jumper, blanket and other items found with the baby.
"Someone knew this was going to be a boy, everything was blue, the baby had a blanket. This was no surprise delivery," Livingood said.
Anyone who might have information on the child is asked to call the Abington Police Department at 267-536-1110

That must be the new trend now. Instead of taking full advantage of a Safe Haven Law which allows you to drop off an unwanted infant at any police station, hospital or fire station, why not leave your baby on the step of a stranger in the freezing cold and then go on the run from the police!!

This royally pisses me off. Do you know how many people want children and cannot have them? Do you know how many people have mulitple miscarriages..? And then you have people like this who just dump their baby on a doorstep in the cold. I will give this person credit though, at least they did not put the baby in a trashbag or dumpster like other jerkoff parents.

Capital Punishment: Eye for an Eye

I have not been around for a few days because I have been consumed with a local news story here in the Philadelphia area. An attempted robbery went tragic on Halloween when a man, 21yr old John Lewis, attempted to rob a Philadelphia Dunkin Donuts. A police officer, Mr. Charles Cassidy, unknowingly walked in on the robbery and John Lewis shot him in the forehead, without warning. He then took his gun and fled. He was caught nearly a week later in a Miami, Florida homeless shelter. He has since confessed to the killing. There are Philadelphia detectives now in Miami prepared to bring Lewis home, shackled and with Officer Cassidy's handcuffs on.

I sat today and watched the live coverage of the funeral of this slain police officer. He was a family man, and from the 6000 people who attended the funeral a loved man. I did not even know this man but I sat and cried. I cried for his family. For his friends. I cried because my dad is a cop and I could not imagine going through what his family is going through.

It is times like that that I think capital punishment should be mandatory. You kill a man, you get killed. And in my opinion if you shoot a man in the forehead, you should get shot in the forehead. You stab someone , you should get stabbed. You should not be allowed to live on death row for 20+ years living off of taxpayers.

This man lost his life for NO REASON. Simply because this robbery suspect was in the middle of robbing a donut shop and the cop interrupted him.

And what is more sickening? That is family harbored him for a few days and even helped him escape.

There are some really sick people in this world. And Mr. John Lewis, I hope you get your ass handed to you at the sentencing hearing.

I will keep you all posted with new updates on this story.

Murder Suspect Caught and Confesses

Did Jessica Seinfeld Plagarize her Cookbook?

Did Jessica Seinfeld Plagarize her Cookbook?

So recently Jessica Seinfeld, wife of Jerry Seinfeld, released a cookbook called "Deceptively Delicious." Now that the book has been released, another woman has stepped forward saying that Ms. Seinfeld copied her recipes. Apparently, this other woman's book has some of the recipes word for word that Ms. Seinfelds book has, and this other woman's book was published first. Jerry Seinfeld says his wife did not plagarize, but what husband in his right mind would throw his loving wife under the bus.... @@ <------------ eyerolls.

My Opinion?: I think she is full of crap. Parents have been tricking their kids for years into eating their veggies and this woman comes along, flings her hair, says she is Mrs. Seinfeld and gets a book deal. If she did plagarize, I hope she pays this other woman.

Halloween is a big scam....

Halloween. A chance for kids and adults to get dressed up and mask their identity for one day. A chance for children to go door to door asking for handouts of candy that they should not have anyway. A chance for somebody like me to either give out candy and be on good terms with the kids in the neighborhood, or turn off my lights and ignore the endless doorbell rings, and ultimately risk my house being egged next year on mischief night.

Why is Halloween a scam? Because too many people make out financially from what some people have even called "devils" holiday.

The candy industry makes out big time. People buy bags and bags of candy to hand out. Kids come home with pillow cases full of candy and other sugary treats.

Dentists make out since cavities will be forming at an exponential rate.

Retail stores and costume manufactures rip you off for cheaply made costumes.

Liquor stores sell alcohol for the parties that the adults have.

Pumpkins finally get some play other than Thanksgiving's traditional pumpkin pie.

All of this money, all of this hype, for a few hours of masquerading. It is just the beginning of the credit card maxing season (black friday, christmas, new years parties)

And you will all be happy to know that I have fallen in the Halloween Trap. I currently have 3 huge bags of candy sitting by my front door, and costumes for my kids.

Moola.com ~ Not really FREE money

There is a new beta game site out right now called Moola. The concept behind the game is that moola will give you a penny and you are matched against other players in a tournament of games where you can win up to ten million dollars. Their whole concept is that if you double a penny thirty times, then you get to over ten million dollars.

Sounds tempting doesnt it? Well do not go running to the website just yet.

First off its still in beta mode meaning you need a moola invite to get there.

Right now there are three games that you can play.

• Rock, Paper, Scissors, (with a catch)


• Hi-Lo - each player is dealth ten cards where they have to guess if the next card is higher or lower than the previous card. The catch is that you only get four "lives" and if you guess wrong, then you lose a life. You also have the option of locking in your guesses, however that will cost you a life too. The first player to make it to the end of their ten tries in as few lives as possible and with as many locked in cards as possible, Wins.


• Gold Rush- each player has six pieces of gold worth one to six pounds. There is also 6 pieces of gold left in the gold mine. Each player has to throw out a piece of their gold and then the gold mine has to throw out a piece, whoever threw out the piece that weighed more wins all three pieces. The first person to reach 32lbs of gold wins.

As you can see these are not games where you need intelligence or even skill. They are games of chance where you just need patience.

Why do I think moola is not a real money maker? First off the games are computer generated. As a test I played ten games of hi-lo. I noticed that the cards that flipped over where always against the odds. For example, I had a K of hearts. I predicted the next card would be lower. (A are high in this game). The next card was an A. I lost a life. I then had a 4 of spades. I guessed the next card would be higher. The next card was a 2. This happened so much that for now on I am almost tempted to always go against the odds.

My other reason is that most people play on the lower levels. Once you get to about level 10 or 11, its hard to find a human player, in which you are most likely going to be matched against a robot. Bots are programmed before the game even starts to win, lose or tie.

There are ways to increase your account balance. You can go to their booster zone where you can sign up for cash offers (which will cost you money or a credit card) and then you can add to your balance. There is also the search and win wheel where you can win up to $9000, however the most I have won on the wheel is .05.

How can moola afford to do this? They are fully funded by advertisers. Before you can even play a game you are forced to watch a short ad. Whats the catch? You have to answer a question about the ad, meaning you have to pay attention.

From my lurking around on the moola forums, I think the most I have seen someone cash out was $1000. Currently my account balance is $4.11.

I also think that "maybe" moola has it so you can only win so many games in a row. I have wasted a day on moola doing research and noticed that I never won more than three games in a row.

Oh and let me not forget that the more people you invite, then the more people that are in your "downline". You can then get a percentage of earnings from their winnings. Which is why people are so eager to give away their invites. If you are reading this commentary carefully enough, you will see where I have hyperlinked a way to get invites. :)

So with the right computer software and addicting chance games, moola has some beta testers hooked on their site, thinking they can win thousands to millions of dollars, which will most likely never happen.

And if someone does get to the top of the moola tower, I will eat my words and credit moola as a worthy gaming site.

Right now, the best thing about moola, is that it is free to play and you can win $10 or $20. And for some people thats worth it to them, spending hours on end on a gaming site. Personally I would rather get a part time job at mcdonalds and make an easy $10 in two hours. A lot faster than wasting my time on moola.
