Idiot Of The Air
Neil Rogers broadcast this racist crap. I say again: If an African American succeeds in this country, there's always some jerk-off that will try to say it's only because they're licking Whitey's boots. Frankly, I'm sick of it.

Looks Like Winona
Will ride past her conviction with a wrist slap and some community service. If she had been a poor African American or Hispanic, she'd be serving the three year maximum.

Miss Networld Redux
This is disgusting. And this.

Get Some Eyebrows
Before you decide to run for president. Dick Gephardt is stepping down as minority leader in the house, reportedly to gear up for a run at the presidency in '04. But democrats are saying he can't hit the ball. Somebody's gotta take the blame for them getting ditched in the elections so Dick gets the axe. Too bad.

Republicans Kick Ass
In the mid-term elections. And, even though I swore I wouldn't vote for Rick Perry, my # 2 pencil somehow gravitated to the little oval that said straight Republican party. Sometimes you have to pick the turkeys that'll generate the least amount of crap in the barnyard. So, now that the Publicans have control of the country and the UN is about to roll over, maybe the President can get something done...like kicking Saddam's ass.

IF AIRLINES SOLD PAINT . . .
Customer: Hi. How much is your paint?
Clerk: Well, sir, that all depends on quite a lot of
things.
Customer: Can you give me a guess? Is there an average price?
Clerk: Our lowest price is $12 a gallon, and we have
60 different prices up to $200 a gallon.
Customer: What's the difference in the paint?
Clerk: Oh, there isn't any difference; it's all the same paint.
Customer: Well, then I'd like some of that $12
paint.
Clerk: When do you intend to use the paint?
Customer: I want to paint tomorrow. It's my day
off.
Clerk: Sir, the paint for tomorrow is the $200 paint.
Customer: When would I have to paint to get the $12
paint?
Clerk: You would have to start very late at night in
about 3 weeks. But you will have to agree to start painting before Friday of that week and continue
painting until at least Sunday.
Customer: You've got to be *&%^#@* kidding!
Clerk: I'll check and see if we have any paint available.
Customer: You have shelves FULL of paint! I can see it!
Clerk: But it doesn't mean that we have paint available. We sell only a certain number of gallons on any given weekend. Oh, and by the way, the price per gallon just went to $16. We don't have any more $12 paint.
Customer: The price went up as we were talking?
Clerk: Yes, sir. We change the prices and rules hundreds of times a day, and since you haven't actually walked out of the store with your paint yet,we just decided to change. I suggest you purchase your paint as soon as possible. How many gallons do you want?
Customer: Well, maybe five gallons. Make that six,
so I'll have enough.
Clerk: Oh no, sir, you can't do that. If you buy paint and don't use it, there are penalties and possible confiscation of the paint you already have.
Customer: WHAT?
Clerk: We can sell enough paint to do your kitchen,
bathroom, hall and north bedroom, but if you stop painting before you do the bedroom, you will lose
your remaining gallons of paint.
Customer: What does it matter whether I use all the
paint? I already paid you for it!
Clerk: We make plans based upon the idea that all
our paint is used, every drop. If you don't, it causes us all sorts of problems.
Customer: This is crazy!! I suppose something
terrible happens if I don't keep painting until after Saturday night!
Clerk: Oh yes! Every gallon you bought automatically becomes the $200 paint.
Customer: But what are all these, "Paint on sale from $10 a litre" signs?
Clerk: Well that's for our budget paint. It only comes in half-gallons.
One $5 half-gallon will do half a room. The second
half-gallon to complete the room is $20. None of the cans have labels, some are empty and thereare no
refunds, even on the empty cans.
Customer: To hell with this! I'll buy what I need
somewhere else!
Clerk: I don't think so, sir. You may be able to
buy paint for your bathroom and bedrooms, and your kitchen and dining room from someone else,
but you won't be able to paint your connecting hall and stairway from anyone but us. And I should point out, sir, that if you paint in only one direction, it will be $300 a gallon.
Customer: I thought your most expensive paint was $200!
Clerk: That's if you paint around the room to the point at which you started. A hallway is different.
Customer: And if I buy $200 paint for the hall, but only paint in one direction, you'll confiscate the remaining paint.
Clerk: No, we'll charge you an extra use fee plus the difference on your next gallon of paint. But I believe you're gettin it now, sir.
Customer: You're insane!
Clerk: Thanks for painting with United

The above is not my work. Got it from an email.

George W. Bush Called Me Today
Or at least a reasonable, recorded facsimile of him did and told me to vote for Rick Perry. Tony Sanchez' familiar called a few minutes later. Guess what he wanted. In Texas politics this has been the dirtiest, the mudslingin'est, the most slanderous, most contentious governors race ever. These two dipsticks have invented the most bizzare and outragous lies about each other in the history of mankind. Neither one of them would make a wart on a good governors ass. Rick Perry, though, wouldn't make a wart on a good wart hogs ass. The only thing I remember him for is being in Dallas throwing out the first pitch at a Rangers game when the entire city of Houston was floating down various bayous into the Gulf of Mexico after taking on 30 inches of rain. A good state leader would have been in the thick of things bolstering the moral of thousands of people who lost everything they owned to tropical storm Allison. Sorry, George W., Rick Perry's not on my list for election. On the other hand, neither is Mr. Sanchez. Maybe Texas could do without a governor for a few years...
