(I will be off line today so I decided I would re-post something that had made me giggle.)

Insanity is the new normal and you people drive me crazy.

The time flew by as I exercised and watched "Keeping up with the Kardashians" at the gym yesterday. I didn't even notice the pain as I was too busy laughing - and praying for this family and so  I wanted to share my thoughts from the highlights of the program with my last three readers.

( I lost a follower from Russia this week, perhaps I didn't translate well.)


Okay,  here goes, Bruce Jenner and the current Mrs. Jenner ( wife # 3 - but this time it means something) are seated at a table and waiting for their youngest daughters Kendall who's 14 years old and Kylie who's not quite 13 to arrive for dinner but for some strange reason the kids came separately and were late- go figure. Kylie shows up all busty in a skimpy little dress (insert-"define" dress here) as the little snot-head tries to act all sexy while scarfing down a plate of food like my dog Buster when all of a sudden the man inside of Mr.Jenner begins to show himself and he grows angry and says to his youngest daughter, "Your eating food like your a ten year old but your dressed like your thirty and you have too much makeup on - it's just too much,"

Then the manipulative little twit says to her mother, "Mom, how old do I have to be before I can get breast implants?" and at that point Bruce says , "Let's go" while I'm saying to the TV screen on top of my stair-climber, "Bruce is on it !" (It was beautiful - kinda like watching spring emerge.) Then Bruce repeats himself calmly and politely, "We are leaving, get in the car, " while Kris sits there all crest fallen and teary she says to him, "Please don't make a scene." "Please don't do this." ( I would like to add that if Kris's daughter who isn't even 13 yet , had not been dressed like a teenage hooker from a "Guns and Roses" music video there likely wouldn't have been a scene in the first place.)
After about a dozen commercials we cut away to see Kylie back at home in her bed whining and complaining in a fake cry to her mother, "Daddy doesn't like me". Kris says , "Oh honey, Daddy loves you but he's having trouble letting you grow up." The little girl responds, "But Dad grounded me." Then Kris says's, "I'll take care of it."
Then we cut away to "Mr. Folds".... and his scheming wife in their bathroom as she begins to sweet talk him by saying, "Bruce, honey , you've got to let her grow up, and she needs to learn how to be her own person and sometimes she may fall but we will always be there to pick her up when she does..." ( awww) "She's growing up and we have to let her." Then we see Bruce nod his head in agreement all remorseful and WHIPPED as he says , "I guess your right" , "Fine I 'll unground Kylie" - "but I want to talk to her first." (Empty threat alert!)

So the talk goes like this..... Kylie to her dad, "Daddy, I'm growing up." Bruce replies, "I know and it's hard for your 'ol dad to watch" (I would like to add- it's also hard for me to watch) Bruce continues, "Okay, your ungrounded but you can only wear a little eye liner for now. "Okay Dad" , replied the child....
( But Bruce what about that busty dress with all of the kid cleavage!?! What about those heels!?! What about those implants!?! Exactly WHERE is she allowed to use that eye liner?!?! - You've left open too many variables!! Wake up man!)

Clearly Mrs. Jenner is the one wearing the track shorts and tennis balls in that family.
I imagine these are the kind of people who Dr. Phil dreams about.
(ka-ching!)

ka-ching! is right...barf on a shingle!
I'm no biological parent; I'm a spiritual father; but for all that is true and good and right, WTH?
Bruce Jenner needs to grow a "few" and tell his "erstwhile" wife that the children need some definite boundaries...oh, yeah.
This Kardashian crew needs a good kick in the behind; as well as some definite understanding of what it means to be a family, and what it means to be a human person.
I don't watch this anymore; saw enough of it in years past.
This is a "case in point" for Catholic teaching on the family.

Father, I had wrote about these people before and here's a repeat of the comment I made as I still believe it.
*************
At some point someone in that family will give birth to a child who will be a genetic fluke. (there's one in every family) Someone with integrity and a feeling of self worth. Someone who doesn't think or act like the rest of the family. Someone with backbone who stands up and does the right thing and who perhaps will have to face down his or her spouse, parents , or grandparents and draw a line in the sand. Someone who thinks that the rest of the family has the moral integrity of a kumquat. Someone who wont push their daughter into doing a topless photo shoot and who feels that pimping out your daughters or your aunts is a sin and lacks good judgement and is demeaning. Someone who understands that sexualizing your beloved daughters (and some are really young !!) is a sin and on many levels. Someone who's searching for something that is longer lasting than fame. Someone who actually picks up his or her cross instead of using it for a pole dance. I pray that it will be this child.(Kortney was pregnant) Chastising hurts the worst when it comes from the inner circle. The saint that comes to this family and shows them an opportunity for redemption is gonna catch hell.
