Get together in Yaletown for Miles 

cannot sleep

 

Ok so I think I had a bit too much coffee tonight, becuase It is almost 2am and I am not the least bit tired. I finished all my homework for the week, and I am just playing around with some picture editing on Picasa. This one is for you Ola.! 

Oprah - Money maker or Child Saver?

Ok so tonight on MSN Tristan and I got into a heated discussion about my recent Oprah postings. What do you think?..... Am I just caught up in the whole media scheme of things? haha


Tristan: yeah and the sick thing is that something like that happens and the ones who really benefit from it are oprah and her cash cow of a show

Candice: ARE YOU SERIOUS?, she is trying to change the whole system

Tristan: sure they put a couple guys away, but it doesnt even come close to comparing to what it does for her publicity wise

Candice: what? Oprah doesnt need anymore publicity, she is using her money to change the US system, so that these guys are put away for life as soon as they sexually offend once, rather than going out and raping and killing a child, or worse.
No money or publicity compares to saving a childs life

Tristan: i dont disagree about saving lives yadada, I would respect it a lot more if it was a personal issue to her and she did it privately, or at least without flaunting it on her show

Candice: she is one of the only people who can reach out to everyone on this issue, her show is viewed worldwide, she doesnt need any more money, she is sick of seeing kids sacrificed by these sick men

Tristan: more endorsments, wider audience, more advertising revenue

Candice: Okay well Im getting frusterated here, I disagree with you on this issue

Tristan: sorry, I dont want to argue

Drive a little, Save a lot!?

Who doesn't love Matthew McConauhey?

So I guess the rumours are true. Katie sure looks pregnant in these pics.

Great News!!

Within 48 hours of The Oprah show airing last week with the posted pictures of wanted sex offenders. 2 were recognized and arrested. Here is Oprah who presented these ladies with a 100 thousand dollar reward for turning in one of the wanted men. William C Davis was living above one lady and her 3 children! It was an awesome show to watch because it shows how these people can act like a totally nice person and gain your trust. On the show they also had the family that now felt safe that this man was caught and their children weren't afraid anymore. Hopefully all of Oprah's fugitive list will be captured and put in jail before it's too late.

Happy Thanksgiving

Oprah's $100,000.00 reward!

The Oprah show the other day was all about child abductors and sexual predators who are re-offending and children who are being killed because of it. Oprah is so sick of all these crimes that she has posted pictures of 8 wanted child sex offender's and is offering a 100 thousand dollar reward of her own money to the person who can give information that will lead to the capture of one of these criminals. She does not want these horrible events to continue happening. The show was so sad and showed real stories of little girls and boys who were victims of these heinous crimes. So keep your eye out for these guys! One little girl was saved from being spotted in a Denny's restaurant in Idaho, only 5 hours away. Go Oprah!
Check out the Predator Profiles!

Brad Pitt in Toyota ad

Some Brad Pitt for Toyota advertisements that I've never seen before. No clue when or where these were released but Toyota this isn't Brad's choice of ride anyway. He's all about the matching BMW motorcycles with lover Angelina Jolie.

Take the World Famous Personality Test!!

This personality test is used by many of the World's top companies in hiring decisions! I am an Artisan (ESFP) Performer

Here is my description...


Performer Artisans are informative and expressive in their social interactions. Thus, while Performers are usually extreme in their expressiveness and sociability, observably the most expressive of all the types, they are not comfortable telling others what to do, preferring to offer information rather than to issue orders.

Demonstrating or performing is putting on a show to entertain others, and Performers, whether on the job, with friends, or in their families, are the natural performers among the types, people for whom it can truly be said "all the world's a stage." Playful and fun-loving, the Performer' primary social interest lies in stimulating those around them, arousing their senses and their pleasureful emotions-charming them, in a sense, to cast off their concerns and "lighten up." Representing about ten per cent of the general population, Performers radiate warmth and optimism, and are able to lift others' spirits with their contagious laughter and their irrepressible joy of living.

Performers are not comfortable being alone most of the time, and seek the company of others whenever possible -- which they usually find, for they make wonderful playmates. Performers also like to live in the fast lane of society, and seem up on latest fads of dress, food, drink, and entertainment, the chic new fashion, the "in" nightclub, the "hot" new musical group. Energetic and uninhibited, Performers create a mood of "eat, drink, and be merry" wherever they go, and life around them can have a continual party-like atmosphere.
