enjoy: skimming back through my journal and realizing how much better my life is now, and how awesome some things turn out even without being part of the original plan.
enjoy: pineapple dipped in dark chocolate. :smile:
Being on a local musician's emailing list - not so much because I enjoy his music (it's ok) but because I love correcting the spelling and grammar mistakes in his show promotions and email updates. :sheepish:
I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers. The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black
America. Try to have things like the United
Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White
Entertainment Television, or Miss White America; and see what happens...Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door.
Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing
makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a
baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game.
I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a
reason, that is why there are no girls allowed.
Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE?
I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion.
I have the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others
because they are different, weird, or tick me off.
When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the Law of Probability.
I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English!
My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so
you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours.
I think the police should have every right to
shoot your sorry ass if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word "freeze" or "stop" in English, see the above lines.
I don't think just because you were not born in
this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business.
We did not go to the aid of certain foreign
countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document; and open to their interpretations.
I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.
I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies
and television. That doesn't stop you from watching them.
I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better, and put your name on the building.
It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid; and smack their little behinds when necessary, and say "NO!"
I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries!
I am sick of "Political Correctness." I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa; so how can they be
"African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European - American because my great, great,
great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else
And if you don't like my point of view, DON'T PASS IT ON.

today is just one of those awesome days.

THATS REALLY REALLY NICE!!!
I used this as one of my 2 sentiments at my graduation party.
It seems I hardly had to steer,
My course was planned.
And destiny it guides us all,
And by itÂ’s hand we rise and fall,
But only for a moment,
Time enough to catch our breath again.
How one live touches the other
Is so hard to understand --
Still we walk this road together,
We try and go as far as we can,
And we have waited for this moment in time,
Ever since the world began.
WeÂ’ll never know and still we
Try to understand,
And even though the seasons change,
The reasons shall remain the same,
ItÂ’s love that keeps us holding on
Till we can see the sun again.
How one live touches the other
Is so hard to understand --
Still we walk this road together,
We try and go as far as we can,
And we have waited for this moment in time,
Ever since the world began
And the night -- itÂ’s got your number,
And the wind -- it cries your name --
And we search for clues, win or lose,
In this weÂ’re all the same --
The hope still burns eternal,
WeÂ’re the keeper of the flame--
How one live touches the other
Is so hard to understand --
Still we walk this road together,
We try and go as far as we can,
And we have waited for this moment in time,
Ever since the world began
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm sigh
Having awesome Melatonin induced dreams involving great people, places and events.
enjoy: requesting a scanner via IT, and (surpringly) getting a top of the line one that also scans up to 30 negatives or slides.
It's just like the one I recently got at home that I am sooo in love with! Now I can bring my fun to work as well.
enjoy: the dingy IT guy who they sent over to deliver it has made me a permanent administrator so I can download stuff... woo hoo!!!
Misery always loves company! :grin:
four semesters back to back alternating all day friday and all day saturday for classes and then it'll be on to a phd.
