Sex after weight loss....
ummm...I like sex...alot doesn't mean I get it, I have standards after all. I have never been a one-night-stand kinda guy, except when the hormones take over. I have noticed certain things seem to be growing though, so that has most definitely made it more enjoyable for me and her (I hope).

Eddie Murphy, Carlos Mencia, Jeff Dunham (many thanks to Chris for letting me know about this guy), Richard Pryor, Dane Cook, Chris Rock, and many more are all geniuses. Why? becuase they take a 'taboo' subject and bring it to the front of peoples minds in a way that is acceptable by AMERICAN standards. Lets face it, who would you rather listen to? A professor type that goes on and on about the ravages of racism in modern culture in a monotone? or some guy/gal making you laugh your ass off at a crude joke but at the same time when you get out of the show and you think on it a bit more you realize the guy/gal up on stage had a point! Ding-ding-ding!! I pick door number 2, Bob! Either way the message gets across but one way is a hell of alot more fun. Have any of you ever listened to cops, soldiers (combat veterans), firefighters, paramedics? Many have sick senses of humor, why? becuase humor is often the only way of dealing with the things they see on a daily basis. I was visiting freinds in a neighborhood and down the street there was a fire, lady who lived there was about 80 years old and had just been widowed after 48 years of marriage. She had a old, old dog that her and her husband had adopted as puppy. She loved that dog with a passion, that dog was her baby and the only real link she had left of her husband. I saw the smoke and ran down there and got her out before the fire got bad, she was in hysterics about dog, I ran back in (not a smart thing to do but hey, what you gonna do?) trying to find the dog and I found it at last I grabbed it and got back outside before I collapsed from smoke inhalation. The firefighters, paramedics and cops show up about the same time. The dog had died, suffocating about 5 feet from the damn door. So there I am, sitting in the back of a ambulance sucking down oxygen. A paramedic and firefighter are sitting there asking me the usual questions and when I mentioned the dog and was upset I could not save the dog in time, the firefighter said "hey! smoked dog tastes a hell of alot better then charbroiled!" I got a little upset with him and he said "Hey, after awhile you have to deal with it somehow...my brothers in Chicago and they call babies who are killed in a fire Tater Tots...you gotta do what you gotta do to deal with the shit man." (damn, longer than I expected, I kinda zoned out, sorry)

Emo Kids...
Just so I can prove I also am not above picking on privileged white kids! y'know, there is nothing quite like the suffering of those who have never suffered... A group of white, mostly middle-class well-off kids who find imperfections in there life and create a ridiculous, depressing melodrama around each one. They often take anti-depressants, even though the majority don't need them. Pretty much an entire subculture of people (usually angsty teens) with a fake personality. The concept of Emo is actually a vicious cycle that never ends, to the utter failing of humanity, and it goes something like this: 1. Girls say they like "sensitive guys" (lie) 2. Guy finds out, so he listens to emo music and dresses like a dork so chicks will see that he is sensitive and not afraid to express himself (lie). He dyes his hair black, wraps himself in a stupid looking scarf, develops an eating disorder, and rants about how "nobody understands". 3. Now an emo guy, he meets Emo chick and they start dating, talking about how their well-off suburban lifestyles are terrible and depressing (lie) 4. Emo guy is just too much of a pussy. His penis is too small, he's too depressed to bathe, and has more mood swings than emo chick, and he doesn't even have a menstrual cycle. Emo chick dumps him, saying "It's not you, it's me." (lie) as she drives off with Wayne, the school jock and captain of the football team. 5. Emo guy goes home and cries, proceeds to write a weak song and strum a single string on his acoustic guitar. Another emo chick sees how he is so in touch with his feelings, and the cycle continues. It is also: A genre of "softcore" punk music that integrates unenthusiastic melodramatic 17 year olds who don't smile, has high pitched overwrought lyrics and inaudible guitar rifts with tight wool sweaters, tighter jeans, itchy scarfs (even in the summer, yes the whole scarf thing pisses me off for some reason in case you didn't notice!), ripped chucks with favorite bands signature, black square rimmed glasses, and ebony greasy unwashed hair that is required to cover at least 3/5ths of the face at an angle. This is the sad truth of the emo lifestyle/music, and now that I look at how pathetic it really is, maybe the emos DO have something to cry about!

Do You? You know use that word!
I was raised with the idea that 'respect is earned not given' so are you all calling my parents bad parents? also white people who think they are qualified to speak about racism amuse me, possible new thread on this subject later if I have time.

Do You? You know use that word!
before this gets out of hand, I said I respect "black people more" and I do think a way way to defeat racism is for people to take away "hate words" ability to hurt you. Hell, I am called a beaner, poncho, spic, wetback, etc. at least once a week. I give those words power over me, I choose not to let them have any power over me.

after the rusty gears of my brain worked a little bit more I must ask, what was the 'tone' of his voice? was it obviously in a joking manner? was it in a lusty voice with a accompanying leer?

IRAQ WAR your thoughts
Under Carter, the US supported the covert funding of the mujahadeen, the Taliban's predecessor, and also, to a lesser degree, Osama bin Laden. America has made mistakes, just like any country (and major religion) has and will continue to do in the future. Funding extremist groups was a mistake of global proportions obviously, what are we supposed to do? Ignore it?

Respect is the basis for civility, for politeness, and for consideration toward others.
