Exposing truths - the predators

Why are there so many sex offenders in the paper?  Can't you write about good news? These are questions I hear on a constant basis... Just about every week because just about every week I cover a court hearing dealing with a sexual assault of a child. Mind you that the community I cover stories in is a small rural county - approximately 25k people at any given time call Juneau County Wisconsin home. Now here is the answer to those questions - I cover a lot of court hearings, many dealing with sexual assaults of children. And yes, just about every week I can write an article about such a case currently happening in the Juneau County court.  The reason for this is this heinous crime is rampant throughout every community in this country...in the world.  This crime that rapes the soul of an innocent light happens every day in every community - this crime that is so repulsive - uncomfortable and has such far reaching consequences for the victim, those who love them and eve

Greedy Image - Penn State Scandal

I'm about to go off on a rant. Surprise surprise - In the wake of the Penn State Scandal Cover-up  and revelations that Jerry Sandusky has been accused of the not just fondling little boys, but RAPING THEM - The main question floating around status after status on Facebook and Twitter is, "Why?" WHY DID NO ONE INTERVENE?| WHY DID ALL THESE PEOPLE TURN A BLIND EYE? WHY DID NO ONE FORCE ACTION WHEN INACTION WAS THE NORM? Here's your answer - Greed - Image - Power - Control - And the sick bastard raping those little boys - knew it. His image, the image of the institutions connected to him, along with all the power both had and the money that would be lost gave him control - the leverage he needed to get away with the free reign he had in destroying the lives of those children and leaving the scars they must now deal with as they attempt to find normalcy after twisted insanity stole their innocence. I hope our society is paying attention to this wake up call

Swollen fingers - Ring finger shows middle knuckle caving and top knuckle bending -  a deformity common to RA known as Swan Neck - this came on rapid - three weeks ago it was normal - Red bumps surfacing on top knuckles are commonly seen in RA And damn straight I've been biting my nails!! Wouldn't you? BULLSHIT!!! Bullshit - Guess my "whatever" phase is over and I am now in the pissed off one. I've debated about writing on this as I don't want people thinking I am looking for sympathy - actually that's the last thing I want  - it will probably tick me off . Tonight I am sitting in here in so much pain I want to literally scream out loud My feet, ankles, knees, elbows, wrists and shoulders are burning - just typing this all out I am having to fix typo after typo because my fingers are not working as they should...which is BULLSHIT!! This drama started about 6 weeks ago - at least that's when it first got my attention  -since then t
