Bringing this back out from the archives.

The countdown begins...

Odd & Ends

Greetings from the Hoosier state! I don't really have one topic to delve into today, so I'm just going to touch on a few basics.

• Early this morning I bought my plane ticket for my vacation in September. Originally I was going to fly into Santa Ana, but instead I'll be dealing with LAX. That'll be a trip in itself I'm sure. The latter part of the trip will be spent in Hollywood, so it will be easier to deal with than traveling back to John Wayne airport. Woohoo!


• Normally I have excellent dreams, but not last night. I had 3 different terrible ones! The last one was the worst. I was trapped in a room, where there was a speaker and video camera. Someone on the other end wouldn't let me leave, and if I tried to open the door, the fire alarm went off. Hey, it was scary when I was dreaming it! lol People kept knocking on the door and I'd tell them what was happening, and they thought I was joking! Finally some dude helped me out. Love ensued, but I have no idea who this guy was. I remember the face, and it's not one I've seen before.

• Lastly, G.W. Bush! WTF is he doing? Bailing his friends out of trouble again. Yup, the elusive "Scooter" Libby had his prison sentence wiped clean by the one and only loser of the free world. Seems we need to rethink calling the US a "free world." It's taken a bit too literally.

Trolls

Let's talk about illegal immigration for a moment. First off, I know of a TON of Mexican's that go to church. And 95% of those are illegal. Here's my question... If you are religious, wouldn't breaking the law be a sin? Can we say GREENCARD?! And while on the topic of religion, what's up with that church congregation that picket soldier's funerals? Call me crazy, but I think yelling "God hates fags" and "God hates America" isn't very christian-like. Those are my 2 topics for today. I'm not very inclined to think of new things to talk about. Unless you want to talk about Chris Noth of course... Cheers!

Double Standards

Normally it bugs me when people forward me junk mail. My father on the other hand, well, he sends me the good stuff. The following is soo accurate it's ridiculous. So without further ado, enjoy the email contents.
Dear President Bush:
I'm about to plan a little trip with my family and extended family, and I would like to ask you to assist me. I'm going to walk across the border from the U.S. into Mexico, and I need to make a few arrangements. I know you can help with this. I plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws. I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Vicente Fox, that I'm on my way over? Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:
1. Free medical care for my entire family.
2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.
3. All government forms need to be printed in English.
4. I want my kids to be taught by English-speaking teachers.
5. Schools need to include classes on American culture and history.
6. I want my kids to see the American flag flying on the top of the flag pole at their school with the Mexican flag flying lower down.
7. Please plan to feed my kids at school for both breakfast and lunch.
8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services.
9. I do not plan to have any car insurance, and I won't make any effort to learn local traffic laws.
10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from Pres. Fox to leave me alone, please be sure that all police officers speak English.
11. I plan to fly the U.S. flag from my house top, put flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.
12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, and don’t enforce any labor laws or tax laws.
13. Please tell all the people in the country to be extremely nice and never say a critical word about me, or about the strain I might place on the economy. I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all the people who come to the U.S. from Mexico. I am sure that Pres. Fox won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely. However, if he gives you any trouble, just invite him to go quail hunting with your V.P.
Thank you so much for your kind help.

The Annoying Bush - Part 2

I might as well not even talk about the issues here, chances are, you know them all anyway. But I will say...Why do we put up with it? His approval rating has dipped to an all time low, so doesn't that tell you something? It tells me that half of the registered voters that put him in office are now kicking themselves in the ass. Not hard enough for my liking though.

Healthcare System Scam

Wait, wait, wait..... I can't really say that it is annoying, because I don't have health insurance. Not by my choice either! My state, my government... do they help? Nope. I had a conversation with a nice lady from Michael Moore's office this evening, and as I told her of my own disappointments with the government, it hit me just how bad it could be. Made me realize that something needs to be done. But what? I've emailed and called MANY different levels of the government, and not one person would listen to my concerns without turning a deaf ear. Mitch Daniels for example. I called his office regarding Indiana Medicaid, and was transferred from one person to another to another and to another. Really! Seems that the word "Medicaid" isn't in the governors office vocabulary. Now I realize that all you taxpayers hate Medicaid, Medicare and everything inbetween, but I paid taxes too! LOTS-O-TAXES. I know people that can't even get a good meal. I'll make a deal... Hey Mitch, if you give up your New York strip steak dinner to someone in need, I'll take you for a burrito supreme and a Dr Pepper. Even with my pathetic income I'm willing. That's all. If I say anymore I'm bound to break a law or two. Have a good one.

Time Change

99% of the United States has to reset their clocks twice a year. A couple of days ago I set my clock forward for the very first time. I was part of the 1% that did not conform to daylight savings, and I liked that just fine. However, this joke of a Governor we call Mitch Daniels has decided to go with the flow. He wants to be like everyone else, screwing Indiana residents at the same time. Be aware, there are MANY reasons I do not like him, it's not just because of DST. This is just added to the long list of things that annoy me about him. Republicans = BLAH!

The Annoying Bush

As a child when I learned that the United Stated was the "land of the free", I never would have guessed it left out a few words. It has finally been brought to light that it actually is "land of the free to takeover." That's right, our favorite guy George W. Bush is at it again. Hey Georgie Boy, along with the sea ports, why don't you throw in a little extra. Say, I dunno, secret codes to weapons of mass destruction? Yes, thats it!! Lets give foreign countries access to all of our military resources! Oh, and of course lots-o-cash. He says he will automatically veto any attempts to object this takeover. Why? Do you even have to ask? His Daddy!! Georgie Sr has all the ties to the Arabs. They are his buddies. Ok, come on all of you American-Arabs, don't get your panties in a bunch. You aren't in America for your health. You CHOSE to be here. Bah! Where the hell is Michael Moore when you need him!?!?!
Have a lovely evening all, I'm off to have a cigarette while I still can in my own house.
