Raiko?

Just wondering if anyone eiether has or remembers this book? I've been looking for a book that I had when I was a kid and I think this may be it. One of the stories is about a goblin that helps a boy do his chores and the goblin would not allow the boy to say thank you ...or something like that.

God Bless

Decided to celebrate the 4th by exorcising my right to religious freedom, and my right to say whatever the hell I want. Here's an excerpt from a text conversation I had with my daughter's father:

Me: Ur an asshole for not calling I__. on her birthday. (day before)
R: U know we dont celebrate birthdays
Me: I think ur fake. U just forgot
R: Ur the biggest fake. u never wanted her to be muslim
Me: Heres the problem..this has nothing to do with Islam, but thats all you people ever think about (yes, I said "you people" (cringe))
R: Ur a very ignorant person and u have no morals
Me:because I smoke, drink, and have sex occasionally with the devil?
R: I HATE YOU
Me: how very Islamic of you. do you want to bomb my house now?
Me: because I'll need to tell my mom to go to my gramma's for a few days
R: @#$%^&* %$#&& #$$$%$

a chuckle, a giggle, a snicker and a sneer. so wrong but so easy. I'm so going to hell.

Jimmy Choo and You

Saw The Devil Wears Prada today. effing awesome , just like I figured. At points made a great case for the relevance of the fashion industry(stretch) , being that it's wearable art and all. But no matter how shallow I think it all is, by the time I left the theatre I was willing to give up my first born to be made 5'11'' and a size 4.
Speaking of haute couture ... I personally like this one better.
