...Paul Kramer

Paul Kramer wrote a wonderful book called "Maggie Goes on a Diet". It is a book about a 14 year old girl who goes on a diet after kids make fun of her. After losing weight she becomes popular and good at soccer. Instantly overprotective mothers and others got riled up and pissed off because they think the message that he is sending to young girls is wrong. I would have to strongly disagree with those parents. I would also have to tell them to SHUT UP!!!! This book is necessary because there are SO many obese children in this country and the numbers will continue to grow as long as we have parents living in the land of denial. In the video below you can see that Maggie was snaking snacks and got fat, which can happen. She lost weight and people started to know her by her name, her real name I assume and not that fat girl or whatever kids are calling fat kids these days. Parents think that this could spark eating disorders in young girls, which could happen, but if so then I do not think you can blame it on a book. Stop looking for a scapegoat parents! Besides I ma sure they can look at their own botox Barbie wannabe mom and pick up a lot of things from her fad diets, constant cardio routines and doing whatever it takes to please daddy because he is the one making the money and develop bad habits, then whose fault is it hmmm? Does losing weight increase popularity? Yes! You may hate to agree with it but we all know this is true. The most popular women and men in the world, the most beautiful women in the world, as voted on by other people, are usually young, fit or thin, and that leads to their popularity. Ugly and fat people have to become smarter and funnier than everyone else just to get half as far as a pretty person, this is just a fact of life that we have to live with. If anything this book can be a life saving tool for some chubby little girl or boy who gets teased and bullied. Parents stop trying to control every situation for your children. By doing so you are only making them weaker and less prepared for the harsh real world that they will enviably have to face. If you keep coddling them then expect for them to be 34 and living at home with you with no plan of ever leaving. I am giving Paul Kramer 2 Digits Up and I think these mad moms need to take a chill pill, maybe with the wine that we all know they consume by the bottle, read the book and apply it to your children's life.

...Reconciliation

The parents of two of the music world's biggest stars are getting back together y'all! Britney Spears and Beyonce's parents are reconciling, for now.

Lynn and Jamie Spears are reconciling 8 years after their divorce in 2002. They have been spotted together in Los Angeles several times looking rather cozy. Friends of the pair say that they are not remarried, but they are happy and getting to know one another again. Maybe their daughter's crazy and then saner stages helped bring them back together, awwww.

On the other side of the charts it seems as if Beyonce's parents are calling off their divorce. Mathew and Tina Knowles missed their court date for their divorce in Texas so the judge dismissed the case. This could be a sign that they are getting back together. I am sure at least 1 of them could have shown up or at least a lawyer. They have been married for 30 years, but Mathew cheated on Tina with a much younger woman and got her pregnant, Beyonce now has a little brother I am sure she will never meet unless he becomes some sort of entertainer.

I would like to think that both couples are just realizing how much they missed each other and are back together out of love. The truth is they are both old and no one is going to want them for them. They are country people and others will use them for their fortune and fame and try to claim it as their own, an that is even before they meet their children. Also Christmas is coming up and it is starting to get cold and no one wants to sleep alone when it is cold, and extra gifts are nice as well. Wither way I am giving these reconciliations a Digit Up.
