My good friend's Jenn's blog post in response to this:
http://jennnster.blogspot.com/

It's insane that this woman would make such a story up. I mean, it's quite clear that her baby was NOT taken away. Was this woman hoping she could lie about it, get people to validate her emotions, rally up support...in hopes to sue TSA and get $$$? I mean, obviously, she did not realize that TSA was going to respond with real-time videos. I can understand being frustrated from having to wait, being humiliated while being searched, worrying about missing your flight, etc. But why lie about having your baby taken away from you?! It's obvious her baby was there the whole time. Mental issues maybe? I don't know...

My friend is right. It makes you think twice about reading blogs & such. I mean, I have a blog and I couldn't even fathom writing false stories about my life on my blog. Really, how could that even cross anyone's mind? It's like saying "Dear Diary, be prepared to 'hear' my story, real or not, it's not like you know the difference". Maybe when this Nic woman reads her blog today, it just makes it even more real now because she's read it somewhere. LOL. Ok, sorry, that was being insensitive. But seriously??

Then again, I know people personally who make stuff up in their head and think that it's all real. Yes, it's real in THEIR minds, but everyone else knows the truth (hello, it's called REALITY). Who knows, maybe I'm the one leading a fictitious life?

Anyway, I am curious though to see this woman's response. It'll sure be interesting!

On a side note...such horrible "customer service" TSA!!!

Joshua Bell At Home With Friends

This would have been a great CD to listen to during my college days. I used to listen to Mozart, Bach, Beethoven, Strauss, etc while I studied and just to relax after a full day. Joshua Bell's "At Home With Friends" is a great compilation of music with some great artists. "Come Again" with Sting is such a beautiful song. I can already imagine it in a soundtrack of a movie. Joshua Bell is such an amazing violinist. He incorporates such emotion into his music and it just moves you. #8 is such a beautiful song, it touches your soul. This would make a great CD to play while drinking wine and relaxing with friends. Overall, it's all beautiful music!

Harry Connick, Jr. “Your Songs” review

"Your Songs" is such a classic Harry Connick, Jr. style selection of music. He usually chooses songs that have a jazzy feel to it and is of the oldies but goodies world. Though I am a fan of his, I just didn't feel that this was original in any way. It just sounds like all of his other CDs. I loved walking down memory lane with some of the songs he chose. I especially liked "Besame Mucho" from one of my favorite movies of all time (Great Expectations) and "The Way You Look Tonight" from another favorite movie of mine (My Best Friend's Wedding). Although I appreciate listening to some classic songs of some of the greatest artists of all time, I just wish he could branch out more and make his OWN music. But then again, I wouldn't mind him singing "Oh Danny Boy" like he did on another favorite movie of mine (Memphis Belle). Can't you tell I love movies?
