George Zimmerman Gun Show Autograph Signing is Disgusting

I never say "that's as low as it gets" anymore because someone always proves me wrong. George Zimmerman just can't think of enough ways to desecrate the memory of Trayvon Martin (whom he shot in cold blood) and worse yet, capitalize on it. Zimmerman did an autograph signing at a Florida gun show recently. Zimmerman was acquitted of murder after shooting unarmed 17-year-old Trayvon two years ago. Picture shows the 'injuries" Trayvon was supposed to have inflicted and for which he received the death penalty from Zimmerman.  George Zimmerman Gun Show Autograph Signing Below Low

Octomom Nadya Suleman Pleads Not Guilty to Welfare Fraud--And Needs Acting Lessons - News - Bubblews

I know, enough Octomom!! But I just had to process with you, her court appearance for welfare fraud--you know the sorry saga--single welfare mom, six kids, has IVF octoplets, makes a masturbation porn video, gets busted for not reporting income to FIA. As you do.



What struck me was how affected she behaves and what a bad actress she is. Everything is for effect. She is fake from Brazlian Blowout treated hair, implanted lips (taxpayer funded) to the exaggerated coquetry. She simpers, rolls her eyes, stage whispers, smiles, leans in conspiratorially to lawyer, bats eyelashes, feigns hearing problems, pouts lips. Obviously takes her cues from TV.   Octomom Nadya Suleman Pleads Not Guilty to Welfare Fraud--And Needs Acting Lessons

From King Cake to Hurricane, NOLA Mardi Gras Isn't for the Faint-Hearted

Mardi Gras and New Orleans. The two have almost become eponymous. The 2014 season kicked off in February and counts down to the official Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday), on Mar 4 . After this time, the Catholic Christian world enters into lent, a time of fasting, prayer and almsgiving. Well, everywhere except in New Orleans; there it's always feasting and never fasting. It's Carnivale perks without "lenten" works. But at the altar of St. Louis Cathedral, the penitent come, even in this sin-soaked city. From King Cake to Hurricane, NOLA Mardi Gras Isn't for the Faint-Hearted
