What's Going On With People?

So this morning I overslept which never happens.

What did I wake up to? A phone call from my daughter's school informing that LA Public Schools had received a credible bomb threat and even though the school was private they were following the city's recommendation to close while LAPD search each school.

You better believe I woke up quickly! I am not even sure where to start except to say that I am horrified that someone or some group would threaten the lives of children at school. I know. I know. Children are harmed all over the world each day. What does that say about humanity? When did it ever become okay to threaten children?

On the anniversary week of Sandy Hook I am glad our district took this threat seriously. Apparently the same threat was made in NY to their public schools and they deemed the threat a hoax. I would rather the leaders of my city be safe than sorry. I had to stay home from work and all I could think of is what other parents of the 700,000 children are doing today?

Not all people can call their employor and say they are working from home today. This one e-mail cost the city probably millions upon millions, for what? I really don't get people these days? What the heck is the world coming too?

What is Twilight?

I have loved movies and worked in movies and I consider myself knowledgable about movies but I have no idea what this whole Twilight craze is all about. Do you? I know it's something to do about vampires and that it's the new Harry Potter but what the heck is it? All of the sudden everywhere I go I hear about Twilight. They are interviewing talent on the radio and I have no idea who these stars are. It's like Hollywood grew a new list of talent over night and didn't tell me. Anyhoo, that movie opened last night to gang buster numbers but yet, I have no idea. I have no idea about the Jonas Brothers either. Am I getting old? I guess so.
