No prom for you! Back to English class.
What in the hell is wrong with people? Seriously? So this young girl in Houston, Texas has a prom coming up. From what I understand Prom is a HUGE deal to young females. I would think that because this is the only time you have a prom you would follow the rules and have a great time. No, I am wrong. Meet Miss Marche Taylor. She decided to goto her prom and violate the posted dress code. Then when denied entrance she made a scene and was led away in handcuffs. I wonder if Lil Kim is her role model?
Wheres mom? Wheres dad? Anyone in charge of this 17 year old? It seems not. I would whip my daughters ass if she tried to leave the house looking that way. When interviewed she came across as a moron. Her grammar was terrible. She was speaking ebonics or something of the like. You should not be allowed on television if you can not speak properly to at least some degree.
HOUSTON –
“I actually like the dress. Everybody else likes my dress,” Taylor said.
Madison High’s prom took place at the Sugar Land Marriott. But Taylor only got as far as the lobby. When she tried to enter the ballroom, an official stopped her.
She was told her dress violated a school dress code.
“She shook her head, she was like you are not getting into this prom,” said Taylor. “We were arguing back and forth because I wanted to know why I can’t get into my prom.”
Madison High School Principal Aubrey Todd said the dress was inappropriate and violated the rules.
“It was revealing in such nature it was not appropriate for the prom,” Todd said.
And while she regrets how things turned out, Marche Taylor thinks she had little choice.
“They didn’t give me any options, but to go to jail or go home,” she said.
Maybe she should have skipped the prom and taken some extra courses instead? I just dont get how this is news worthy? Do people really feel bad for her? They didnt give her any options? Bullshit. They should have hauled her ass home and fined the parents for indecent exposure. If they could even find them.
Meanest mom on the planet.
DES MOINES, Iowa – Jane Hambleton has dubbed herself the “meanest mom on the planet.”
After finding alcohol in her son’s car, she decided to sell the car and share her 19-year-old’s misdeed with everyone — by placing an ad in the local newspaper.
The ad reads: “OLDS 1999 Intrigue. Totally uncool parents who obviously don’t love teenage son, selling his car. Only driven for three weeks before snoopy mom who needs to get a life found booze under front seat. $3,700/offer. Call meanest mom on the planet.”
I love this. This is a great example of a parent being… well… a parent. Kudos to Miss Jane Hambleton for caring about the well being of her son. Im sure, as a teenager, her son feels alot of anger towards her for snooping. I know I felt the way growing up. Now that I have children of my own I can understand it. Especially in todays society.
I dont think you should check out their belongings daily. Ok, if they give you a reason to. I mean if you snoop on your kid and find nothing every time would you really keep up your bi-weekly searchings? Maybe cut them back and let them know you are proud of them.
I found this over at daddyology. Thanks!

Lets say Thank You.
http://www.letssaythanks.com/Home1280.htmlI had read that you could not send cards to the injured soldiers at Walter Reed Hospital. Now you can. Thanks to the Red Cross. Statement is below.
Hello,
I work at Walter Reed Information, and received many many calls in regards to sending Christmas Cards and most of them said they got information from this website…so in order to reduce headache for all of you, this is the fact:
Holiday Cards to Injured Service Members This Holiday Season
The following message is from Neal Denton, Senior Vice President, Service to the Armed Forces: Sen This holiday season, we have a great opportunity to bring a touch of home to wounded warriors recovering in military hospitals across the country.
As you may know, the American public has a strong desire to send holiday cards to soldiers staying at Walter Reed and other military medical centers. However, for security reasons, the former military program was discontinued. One of our colleagues at Walter Reed suggested, “If anyone can find a solution to this – it’s the Red Cross.”
We’re proud that this season, communities across America are invited to mail holiday greeting cards along with personal messages of support to wounded soldiers at military hospitals around the country, through a unique partnership of the American Red Cross and Pitney Bowes Mailing Solutions.
Now we have a solution that will not only benefit soldiers at Walter Reed, but also recovering soldiers at military hospitals around the nation. With the help of the Department of Defense, Walter Reed Army Medical Center and Pitney Bowes, between now and December 27, members of the public will be invited to mail their holiday cards to:
We Support You During Your Recovery!
c/o American Red Cross
PO Box 419
Savage, MD 20763-0419Red Cross volunteers will sort the cards for appropriate content and repackage them for shipping. Our steadfast partners, Pitney Bowes, will ship the cards to Red Cross stations at the military hospitals.
This project provides a great opportunity for chapters and station offices to coordinate resources and volunteers. Staff members at national headquarters will call each station office before packages are mailed to that military hospital. Those station managers will be looking for chapter volunteer support to help in accepting, storing and delivering the cards.
A national news release will be issued shortly after announcing the program. Once you know that your field unit will be receiving holiday cards to distribute, I encourage you to contact your local media with the attached localizable news release, to take photos and write stories for your Web sites and to send us your stories at SAFstories@usa.redcross.org.
We realize this is short notice. It took some time to work out a plan with the Department of Defense to revitalize this wonderful program and provide a way for people to express their support. I have every confidence that Red Crossers will want to participate in this joyous project. Already, we have had a very positive response at national headquarters to help with the sorting and packing.
Thank you for your support of SAF. And our office hopes that you enjoy your holidays surrounded by friends and family!
