Tater Tot

Little "tater tot" was suspended from school. He's all of five years old. What could he have done? Brought a gun or knife to school? Shot some heroin into his tiny little vein in the boy's room? Farted at lunch? Called the teacher a bitch?

Actually, what he did was let his hair grow too long. Yes, his hair is too long! It seems the fine educators in this Texas school believe that the length of one's hair determines their actual success in the future. Perhaps these fine educators, and I obviously use that term loosely, should talk to Kenny G., Josh Groban, David Spade, Russell Crowe, or Carrot Top to name a few.

Obviously we should agree that schools must have rules to have order; order being necessary for the true education of students. But when the fine educators are more ignorant and intolerant than the students they purport to teach, is the "control" effective?

Does it really make any difference the length of a child's hair? And isn't telling male students they must have short hair and female students have a choice of long or short hair a discriminatory practice. Who decided that this archaic manner of gender classification is even accurate or acceptable? What if these fine educators decided that all male students must wear blue clothes and all female students must wear pink clothes? Would that be acceptable? I suggest that, based upon the long hair v short hair gender test, that the blue v pink argument holds the same weight for gender classification. After all, don't we associate pink with girls and blue with boys? Come on, you fine educators, make the "color-thing" a rule too... and then while you are at it, be sure that the boys wear blue underwear too, girls pink of course. But don't leave it at that. Please be sure the boys may only take shop class (no girls allowed) and the girls only take home economics (No boys allowed). Boys can play sports and the girls must take a dance class... no exceptions. No gender crossing!!

Let's review how to take students back to 1950:

Boys - Short Hair                                                     Girls - Long or short hair

Boys - Blue color clothes                                          Girls - Pink color clothes

Boys _ Blue color underwear                                    Girls - Pink underwear

Boys - Shop Class                                                   Girls - home economics class

Boys - Sports                                                          Girls - Dance class; no sports

Maybe these fine educators should remove their heads from their asses, get it out of the dark place and at least attempt to understand what education is all about. Leave the archaic reasoning (short hair equals success) at their homes, and do not take such views into the classroom.

And one final note, there are those in society who shave their heads, I believe they are called skin heads. This is a very "successful" group of men. If these fine educators are not familiar with the skin heads (the short haired people who are successful according to the theory) they should google them.

So little Tater Tot, hang in there. Believe it or not, you truly are being educated at this institution, just not in the manner that will be helpful to you in the future; your long hair or short hair future, as the case may be.

Smoke, Mirrors and Stupidity

After just three hours of deliberations, a six-person jury in Broward County, Fla. has awarded a plaintiff suffering from severe emphysema $300 million against Philip Morris. . . .

Juries have awarded $7.8 million , $30 million , $8 million , $1.55 million , $1.3 million , $1.2 million and $5.3 million . There have also been two defense verdicts .

Really does anyone think that inhaling smoke is a healthy thing to do? Those who smoke chose to do so. It may be true that smokers did not know the addicitve power of nicotine, but we all have free choice, free will, and the ability to use it. It is entirely possible to quit smoking. Perhaps not an easy task, but it is possible.
 
How then can these whiney bitches sue tobacco companies when they become ill from a habit that they themselves chose to engage in. Honestly, can anyone, even a five year old kid, not think that inhaling smoke is not exactly a good thing to do. Just ask any fireman who worked before the invention of the breathing apparatus. They know.
 
In our "no fault society", full of hungry lawyers, I presume it is inevitable that we will always have such ridiculous/frivilous lawsuits... how sad that we have allowed ourselves, as a society, the continual application of the "it's not your fault" theory. To be able to accept accountability for ones' own actions should be the root of our existence. Sadly it is not.

Illegal Alien Costume

Personally I like this costume, although it may be a little warm after wearing it for awhile. As far as I can tell, the "being a little warm after wearing it for awhile" is the only complaint I would have. Otherwise the costume is fine with me.

But then again, there are some who do not like it. They find it insulting to the "illegal aliens" who are here, ILLEGALLY. As is typical, those politically correct idiots protested and some retail stores actually removed it from the shelves. If I owned a retail store, not only would I leave it on the shelves, but I would stage it as the prominent costume in the store front window! I know it is going to be a big seller this Halloween. Probably the number one costume in sales overall.

So to LULAC and all of the other Hispanic groups; I say, go buy some other costume and leave this one on the shelves. Here are some suggestions on what you may want to buy: Prisoner Costume: No. Because those costumes are offensive to the convicted felons. I am sure they are offended by it. Leave that one on the shelves too. French Maid Costume: Good choice. Uhm, but ... well that is offensive to French females. It causes the French to assume Americans think of French women as maids, lower class maids. Better not buy that one either. Witch Costume: Hey that's an old favorite. Very popular. I hate to say it, but practicing witches are offended by the portrayal of their kind. The pointed hat and crooked wart nose is highly offensive. Leave the witch costumes on the rack.

This is getting really tough. As we know, every politically correct idiot is looking each day for some new thing to piss them off. This whole costume thing is a great cause, especially since it only occurs once a year, so they have to look quickly, act quickly, and organize their pathetic protests very quickly.

Vampire Costume: Too much like the witches. Leave it. Protest it, but do not buy it! Super Hero Costume: Name the super hero, it doesn't matter which one. Any of them are offensive because we are glorifying someone who is better than we are. And as we know, that's bullshit. We need to protest the super hero costumes. Not only are they portrayed as something so special, but let's face it, all of the good super heroes are white and that, my friends, is totally unacceptable.

Butlers, cops, fireman, pirate costumes: Degrading ... degrading ... degrading  ~ and most worthy of protests based on the particulars of each costume. If you can't figure out why to protest one of these, don't worry. The politically correct idiots will tell you why. Trust me, they will.

And absolutely NO animal costumes. Animals have enough problems. PETA, the ASPCA and the various Humane Societies will take care of these protests just as soon as they all get back from saving the whales and polar bears. Hopefully that will be before Halloween. I would hate to see them miss a Halloween costume protest this year!

Really people, get over it. Its just a fucking costume already. And one small hint, look at the mask. Doesn't even look like a Mexican... something about the eyes.

Reform School

Let's file this one under "beyond absurd". Six year old Zachary was excited about his new Cub Scout utensil. The kind that so many Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts have relied upon for years. They are very useful utensils. However, you better not take one to school and use it during lunch in god-forsaken Newark, Delaware.

Fearing that the excited six-year-old was a terrorist, the school kicked him out, remember this kid is SIX years old, for having a "weapon" in a zero-tolerance zone. Personally I think this school falls into the "Zero Tolerance of Common Sense Zone".... Are they kidding? Back when children were treated as children and adults acted like adults, (the women with their motherly common sense and the men with a pair of balls) this would have been handled by taking the knife away from the child, calling the parents, and asking that he not bring it back to school. End of story. Problem solved.

But, as is now fashionable in what's left of an intelligent America, the idiots at the school decided to kick this kid out and put him in reform school for 45-days.

No matter what one thinks the zero-tolerance is a good idea. We do not want weapons and drugs in the schools. That we can agree on. We all know this policy worked very well at Columbine. See, zero tolerance works.

This is another graphic example of how crazy we have become in our messed-up politically correct world. The intent of the law and the spirit of the law are two different things. The intent of this law was to keep kids (older than six I presume) from bringing illegal drugs and prohibited weapons into schools. Now, if a kid is caught with an aspirin, midol, tylenol vitamin or any other normal use LEGAL drugs, they can be kicked out of school. Sad isn't it? Are we so far out of touch and out of control that a kid canot even take an aspirin anymore without fear of going to a reform school?

This reminds of of another zero-tolerance story wherein a 13 year old girl gave her friend, another 13 year old girl, a Midol because the friend was having a difficult time - during that bad time of the month for girls. The Midol "drug dealer" was kicked out of school for the year and charged with a criminal offense. I think the Midol drug dealer needs to rot in hell for the atrocity she commited against that other girl and against the school. It's probably the most heinous crime I have ever heard of.

Once agian, we have a total lack of common sense in this country. TOTAL LACK. If we do not embrace common sense soon, we will be past the point of no-return (if we are not already) and what we have left of this country will be destroyed - as will we.

I think if the world needed an enema, it would be well placed in Newark.

Black Barbie

Oh no. Here we go again. Mattell launched a new line of politically correct black barbie dolls ~ fuller lips, dark skin, a wider nose and more pronounced cheek bones. Apparently their first foray into the black doll business resulted in too many comments about how the dolls were nothing more than the "white dolls" painted brown. So don't you think that the new line of dolls would be acceptable? Guess again.

It seems on this new line of politically correct dolls, the hair is not quite right. It's long and straight. (SIGH)... Looks like some people are not happy unless they have something to bitch about.

And for the record, the line was created by a black woman hired by Mattell specifically for that purpose. Maybe she was not "black enough". Sorry Mattel. You tried... but then again so did Disney and look what happened there...

WTF? Another story about smokers

Even a truthful smoker will admit that the habit is a bad one, unhealthy and expensive. That being said, don't people still have some choices when it comes to what they believe is okay for them to do? Can we no longer decide how we want to live? Do we now require the government to tell us everything that we can and can't do even when those things are LEGAL?

In Dallas a plaintiff, but in this post I will just call her "the stupid bitch" - filed a complaint with the Texas Fair Housing Authority - or in this post I will just call that authority the "Unfair Authority" to be perfectly descriptive. So the stupid bitch files this complaint with the Unfair Authority to whine about her neighbor. It seems the stupid bitch, a non-smoker, lives in an apartment. Her neighbor, the smoker, lives in the next apartment.

(To understand how crazy the stupid bitch is, let me give you some history. The apartments are separated by two-hour fire walls from the floor up to the roof. Her apartment air filters were repeatedly replaced, sealed electrical plates were installed and the apartment maintenance staff even caulked around the kitchen sink pipes, all to no avail (according to the stupid bitch that is). The smoker- when she smoked- had not one but two air purifiers in her apartment, and also opened the patio door when she smoked. Oh, and the stupid bitch renewed her lease AFTER she made the complaint.)

The stupid bitch claims the smoke has caused her personal damages. She needs her art work restored (believe me honey, your velvet paintings of Elvis and the velvet dogs playing poker will be just fine), all of her clothes dry-cleaned (off-the-rack K-Mart polyester does not need to be dry cleaned. Try the washer/dryer you stupid bitch) and her furniture needs to be re-upholstered (the $200 nine-piece set circa 1984?) As if those were not enough trumped up damages, the stupid bitch also claims she qualifies as disabled under the ADA because one of her major life functions (no not that she is nuts) ~ her breathing is affected. And since she is disabled the apartment management has to "accommodate" her. I would accommodate her crazy ass right out onto the street. Maybe that explains why I am not an apartment manager?

As if this were not absurd enough, a judge, via a temporary restraining order, ordered the smoker NOT to smoke in her own apartment until the matter could be resolved! Remember,  this is an American apartment and an American judge. AMERICAN - you know the land of freedom ... or at least it used to be.

Fortunately I do not live in an apartment. But if I did, I would suffer damages when someone cooked with curry. I am not a fan of curry - don't have any in my house, don't eat it in restaurants, don't buy it - just not a fan. So, if someone cooked with it in the next apartment, I would file a complaint, probably sue. Also I don't like Sauerkraut. Put that on the lawsuit list as well. Cat poop is another no-no. Forget the litter box and baking soda. Add that to the lawsuit list too. Perfume makes me sick to smell it, especially that $2.00 per gallon kind that stupid bitches wear. Another one for the list. Bathroom spray? Nope! Add that one too. Scented candles and carpet fresh powder, oh no! Please no! Causes an impairment to a major life function. Gotta add that one to the list too.

The smoker is obviously not threatening the life of her neighbor. Not even remotely. But I think the smoker has the basis for a real lawsuit, namely harassment. There's a legitimate civil violation she can use. How about the smoker's right to "quiet enjoyment" of her own apartment?

Two more thoughts, first of all the smoker, now banned from smoking, should boil Sauerkraut 24x7 in her apartment, throw in some curry and brussel sprouts. Pour some water in a five-gallon pot, get it boiling really good, and then keep it that way for days.

Second thought; how can we allow the government to control what we do in our homes. If we as Americans allow this to happen, we open the door for the next government intervention, and the next, and the next.... where will it all end? Do we really want to find out?

Senseless Death In Chicago

It was tragic news from Chicago. A 16 year old black kid walking home from school was attacked and beaten to death. His funeral was this weekend. Very sad.

Not to miss out on camera time, Jesse Jackson and Louis Farrakhan attended the funeral (of course). Jesse demanded that school kids are provided safe passage to and from school! Demanded? And how does he propose that happen? Maybe we can hire an additional two-million police officers. They can pick the kids up at home, take them to school, pick them up after school and take them home. Maybe even the police can buy food during the day and when they drop the kids off at home, the officer can make dinner and clean the house while they are there? I think that just might work, don't you?

As tragic as this was, it's just another reflection on the sad state of our society. Maybe if the people who brought these kids into the world acted as responsible parents, we would not have so many problems on the streets.

Jesse and that other guy with the towel on his head just wanted more air time. Like I said in my book, if they really wanted to help their race, I can think of many legitimate ways to do that. That is, if they REALLY wanted to help their race!

I wonder why the Olympic committee did not want to go to Chicago?
