Come on California...Actually, Come on PEOPLE!

Parents of a student at Oak Meadows Elementary school in Riverside, California just taught the ENTIRE school population about "oral sex"!

Yes, they bitched and moaned about Websters Dictionary including and defining that word/phrase in the dictionary - and got it pulled from the school!! Are you crazy?!?!

LET'S PROTECT THE CHILDREN! Oh my gosh, people have lost their mind. Let's think about this rationally for a second - which, I know is difficult for most people to do, but we're going to try.

Ok, so, oral sex is in the dictionary. As it should be. It's not slang, it's not derogatory or vulgar - it literally is a sub-definition of the word sex. Sooner or later, the "kids" are going to ask all about it anyway, so why try to hide it??

Furthermore, doing some boneheaded move like these parents did - just caused all other kids and parents to hear about the issue - and guess what? Go look it up! Kids rushed to library (right) and found the dictionaries, and then used their brains to look it up and read the definition. OMG!! THE WORLD IS COLLAPSING!!

You always hear stories that start out "back in my day..." - now we're going to have kids grow up, completely sheltered - and going to get a rude awakening...Some people and their belief in their "moral" higher grounds should shut the -- be quiet sometimes. Don't push your terrible, illogical, immature and completely misguided direction and opinions on the rest of "us". I don't have kids myself, but I was using MUCH more vulgar words than freaking "oral sex" by the time I hit 3rd grade - REGARDLESS of what or if I even knew what it all meant. I turned out just fine.

Some people just need to stick to themselves, and instead of hiding information, or removing it from a specific society, educate their children - and *GASP* do a better job at parenting.

Happy 1 Year!

Haha, created this thing a year ago. I think I had about 4 comments total, and I wrote something like 30 or so messages. Most of them were pointless, some were funny, some were informational - oh well, I had fun.

I can't commit on the results of this year - if I'll write more or less, but I will say, when something interesting and/or personal comes up, I'll post it here.

For those counting, the fiancee and I have officially 100 days until we are married! And like 98 days until we are relaxing in Mexico! And that is, actually, very exciting!

Anyway, I wanted to give a heads up to everyone, the fiancee and I have started our own little side project.

kredesign.com. It isn't very pretty, and we're still working on details - but I have set up another blog for it - for things that relate specifically to the side projects. So, what does that really mean? Well, the big one is there won't be any political discussions! There really won't be anything that doesn't relate to photography or fashion. As of now, my first project is called project 365. It is a 1 photo a day I take. Sometimes it's something cool, other times it's just me messing around.

Either way, you can view that at http://blog.kredesign.com/

I keep asking the fiancee to contribute - but I guess she is too busy! LOL

Anyway, I hope you guys had fun - or at least formed some new opinions about me throughout this last year - but I also hope you enjoy kredesign as well. Who knows, maybe one day we will open our own business, creating fashion, doing wedding photography, nature photography, senior pictures, baby pictures, engagement pictures - really, the possibilities are endless, just maybe not my talent!
