High Gas Prices leads to People Stealing GAS!!!

So I read an article on how one neighborhood in the Bay area got hit.. thieves came- they didn't break into any one's house.. they were syphoning gas out of people's tanks.. How pathetic is that? With high gas prices.. the economy going into shambles, and the high cost of living in the bay area has left people desperate to survive. Maybe that's my naive way of relating to thieves? A desperate attempt to survive.. who needs a 9-5 job, why not just chill and steal when you need right? Let's not get me started on how it should mandatory to have a Job in my ideal world, and how reforms such as Police and security should be partially paid for by the government to secure a task force, but man power should be a volunteer requirement for every community members per month, I bet you at this, crime would be down. but wait..getting back on topic.
Those who cannot afford it are now resulting in what used to be an unheard crime. People are stealing gases right out of other's cars. Do they end up using it or selling it on the black gas markets. This terrifies me. The world isn't getting any prettier, peace is not even on our horizon. Why the hell do people want to have kids and bring them into this confusing and monopolizing world is beyond me. The older I get, and inching towards the thought of the inability and risks of having kids later in life- it comes to make sense not to have any. I mean with my great looks, awesome genetics..the world would be losing out I know..but still I have to be less selfish and realize bringing a kid into this world would only be detrimental to them later in life. They would just be another pawn in this crazy world, a work horse, feeding into the high cost of living- I'll spare my unborn spawn this terrible fate..

Music Brings Back Memories..

So here I am ..back in California.. back in the hometown I pretty much grew up in , MILPITAS !! Well when I was younger.. my good old teen years and college years, I collected quite a great collection of CDs.. so I decided to use iTunes to update my ipod. Unfortunately being the old fogey I am, I had to update my ipod programs, losing the music files I had on it. I am not bummed at all, now I can add all the music from my past.. and make my ipod a little time capsule of alot of my past. R.E.M. and Live ,reminds me of my 1st boyfriend..we used to spend endless hours listening to the cd, hanging out in his garage converted bedroom. Sarah McLaughlin reminds me of my good friend in college, when we used to light candles and lay on the couch listening to Fallen, as we fall asleep.. hesistating to study. It's been along time since then, but these songs can bring back the memories like a DVD player in my mind. Music is like all of our senses, brings us back in time- a simpler time, a happier time, a sad time- but all times that are in your memory- just waiting to be uploaded and reminisced.
