Salon Front Desk Tip

Always be nice to the receptionist. She/he is the one that controls your appointment and access to cancelations, squeeze ins, access to your stylist. And they have bad days just like you do. Everybody Be Nice!

Dinner

If I have to listen to one more inane story about what Barack Obama likes to eat I am going to pull my fucking little bit of hair out. The media are proving what a bunch of fucking idiots they are. We need to be talking about all the problems that we have to face. And they saythe reason is that we are in a a slow news cycle. Just the fact that they have the nerve to say that when we are in a recession, 2 wars, starving people in the world, AIDS, corrupt politians, corrupt police. Hate to see whaat they consider a busy news cycle. Dumb asses.

Shot in the Back

2 times in the last week/week and a half some nutter police officers have shown us how much they want to protect us. 1 man shot in the back while he is laying face down the other shot in the back 12 times. How in the hell can they say they need to investigste. They were shot in the back!!! I think the public should find out where these police officers live and protest in front of their homes until they are held responsible. Shame needs to make a comeback. They look out more for their fellow officers than the people that pay their check. Thank God virtually everyone with a cell phone has a camera because most people wouldnt believe it if they didnt see it and the officers wouldn't "snitch" on one another. I respect that police officers have a hard job, I've seen COPS, I KNOW how hard it is, but these particular cops are nuuuuutters. Much respect to honest upstanding police officers.

Dancing Fool

Just as I was about to go to bed last night AC360 showed a clip of Wolf Blitzer dancing. I tossed and turned all night.

Classical Gangstaaa

I've always been into hip hop, rock, r&b, house but not classical or country. I was not against these types of music there was just no way in hell I was going to listen to them. I still feel the same about country music but recently had a change of heart about classical and opera music.

I bought the game Saints Row 2 a few months ago. In this game you play a hoodlum who deals drugs, pimps women, steals cars , you know all the usual fun stuff. In the game there are many radio stations to choose from, one of them being classical music. Now keep in mind I dont live in a hole so I had heard plenty of classical music over the years but for some reason when I turned on the classical station in SR2 something clicked in me. I found my head moving from side to side. I was confused because ther was no aggression in the music and no one was calling anyone a u know what and I still liked it. I have now downloaded a few songs from different symphonies and love it. So keep in mind, you never know what may influence you. I am evolving. Aaaaaah

Bridges

What the hell is going on? Why is the federal government closing all the bridges except 2 into the city for the inauguration? They claim it is the new normal after 9/11. In case they forgot G.B was sworn in for a second time after Sept. 11. So if this extreme security measure is in response to 9/11 why didnt they do it for him. The gov needs to remember that people actually live here. People that have the same rights as the rest of the citizens of this country. If there is a greater security risk why dont they tell us that instead of whippin out ol Sept. 11 like they do every other time they want us paranoid.

Jealousy

I wish I was as flexible as my dawg.

Racism

If you find words or phrases offensive when used in reference to you than maybe your stupid ass should set an example by not using them yourself. Have a great night.

Stylist Tip

Friendly advice on how to keep a good relationship w/your stylist. Don't ask the stylist to come in early for you and then either show up very late or not at all. If you do this I would suggest home color and cuts for a while. Not that any of my own wonderful clients have done this, just something I heard.

Surveillance

I just finished watching an episode of Nat Geo Explorer about different ways the government is ,and will in the future be, able to track us. They showed an instance in Holland where people have had chips embedded under their skin with all their personal info on it so when they want to get into a bar the bouncer just scans their arm and gets the data he needs.
Are we losing our minds? Did September 11th scare us so much that we are willing to give up all of our privacy? We have been a country for 229 years and in that time we have had 2 major attacks on our soil. Pearle Harbor and 9/11. Is that enough to make us totally give up our rights? I should be able to totally disappear if I want to without anyone being able to track me. I have no plans on doing this but I should be able to.
We need to be careful what kinds of power we allow our government to use to "protect" us. They have shown time and time again that they will abuse any power to watch or listen to people that they are given. They have shown us who they are. Do we see?

Credit

I am sittin here watching Barack Obama's speech on the economy. I agree w/all of the things he has said as far as greed except that he dosent want to say that we, the american people, are just as much to blame for our current financial crisis as banks and the government. We are the ones who elected the corrupt government officials that allowed this to happen in the first place. And please dont tell me that this is all because of George Bush. We are supposed to have checks and balances in our government and for a looooong time, more than 8 years, there hasn't been muchchecking or balancing.
We have all learned many bad lessons over the last many years that we have to unlearn. When I was growing up my family paid off their credit card bills every month. They didnt buy things that they couldnt afford. If there was something that they wanted that they couldnt afford, they saved for it!! Shocking.
We also have stopped paying attention to what our government is doing and gave them blind trust. Just as the congress is supposed to check the president and vice versa, we are supposed to keep our government in check. And instead we play games, socialize, shop,do everything we feel like doing but not what we should be doing. If we want to spread blame for where our country is, we all need to take some of that on ourselves. Time to grow up again.

Cable

Just saw a story about how DC gov wants people to donate money to help get smoke detectors for "poor people". Do these people have cable? Then they can afford their own damn smoke detectors. If someone is truly poor I will gladley help them but in this country poor sometimes means you only have basic cable. Get your priorities in order! Life or The Sopranos.

Plastic Surgery

I am sitting here looking at Barbara Walters jacked up face. It looks like you can see her skull through her skin. Sorta like Skelator with skin.It is really sad that these people think this looks better than wrinkles. And all of her friends think she looks great cause they are all too yanked back too. They need people in their lives that will tell them the truth. Like me. Iam officially offering my truth tellin services to these idiots.I love wrinkley people. Never trust people who's faces dont move!

Hair tip

On rainy dreary days like today, Anti-Humectant from Aveda does a good job of keeping the moisture/humidity at bay.

Rant!!

When you are walking on the sidewalk side by side w/another person and someone's walking towards you, get the hell out of the way. Sidewalks are not one way.

No one will read my blog!!!

Hello no one. Thanks for checking out my blog. I am a 36 year old hair stylist in Washington D.C.. I decided to start this blog in hopes that I will talk less. Unlikley but, always, keep hope alive!! I will be blogging about many things which is what inspired the name. First of all I am not a Buddhist. I know a few lovely Buddhist folks but I am not one. I will let you , no one's , figure out that reference. The wii reference will be obscure to some and very well known to others. If you have no idea what it means, congratulations. You have a life. If you do know what a Wii is, welcome my people. Wii is a gaming console. Not my console of choice but Buddha's 360 made less sense than Wii. And the whiskers are a reference to me doing hair. We, me and the person who did all the work building this blog, were going to call it Buddha's Hairy Joysticks but that just sounded like it miiiight attract the "wrong crowd". Though I am still not sure who the "right crowd" is. I also plan on talking about some politics, current events, my hate for celebrities, and my hate for the press in addition to hair stuff, gaming stuff, and mystery buddah stuff. . So this blog will be happy happy joy joy as is my personality in my day to day life!! Since this my first blog i would ask that anyone that reads it and has helpful information , ideas, criticisim's please let me know.
