Hannah Jones: PR / Media Stunt

I’ve met Hannah Jones, in fact, she lives two miles away from my house. At a place called Burley Gate if you want to specifically. If you don’t know what i’m talking about, not your fault - i haven’t explained the situation. But first of all, if you are offended by the blog post, sorry. i’m sure - but this is an issue that has touched my heart and I really want everyone to know the truth. My blog is mostly tech, but this is a personal issue.

Have a read of this: Times Online

Hannah is a very opinionated young woman. In 2007, HCPT took her with them to Lourdes, France. HCPT is a charity that take handicapped children to Lourdes, France, for a nice family holiday, free of charge, without their parents - allowing them to have rest time. She had an opinion on everything that we did, we have to take into consideration, that this girl of 13.

What the point of this blog post? Well - this current news that has spread across the media is a PR stunt. Her mother has pointed out that she asked Hannah multiple amount of times that she is sure that she wants to have the operation, and all the time she has said no. I have met Hannah’s mother, she is ALSO a opinionated and someone who likes to take over situations and be the boss. In one meeting, hannah wasn’t allowed to talk and for her mother to do all the talking for herself..

Hannah wanted a dream holiday to Florida? - FARSE! I want a dream holiday, but she wants it for free because she isn’t going to live? Excuse me? You have been offered a heart transplant, yet you denied but you want a FREE holiday? I’m sorry, but this is one stupid little girl. But now she can’t get travel insurance? ARE you surprised?

Now she using her illness (which can be fixed) to get

a) Free Holiday

b) Travel Insurance

c) Donations

_________

I’m am disheartened by this, I know for one - this a PR stunt, she wants a free holiday, and not a decent life. I for one, would want a better life, than a holiday to florida. 

I gave up up at this point because  I got so annoyed. My dyslexia cut in on this, and I’m sorry for about speech. - I made a recording instead:

Review: 1Password

Recently, I watched a ScreenCast on 1Password and found it interesting. It seemed like the perfect solution for me, as I can easily forget passwords, and use sometimes the same password on multiple sites. 1Password is from AgileWebSolutions, and I was luckily enough to snap up 2 Licenses. One for me ...
