Okay....first, let me set the record straight. I'm not a lily-liver liberal, or a stogie chompin' conservative, either. I'm what you might call a free thinking individual. In other words, I like to make my own informed decision on what is right and wrong. With that in mind, I submit tonight's raving rant....about words. It seems there are some people out there who get upset when they hear certain words uttered they find offensive. Fag, dike, spic, spook, homo, retard, jungle-bunny, chink, slope, gook, wop, dago, Pollock, towel-head, camel-jockey, dune coon, ass pirate....well, it's a REALLY long list as you can imagine, so I think I'll stop there if you don't mind. All of a sudden, all manner of formerly bad-ass people are starting to cry whenever these words make the news. Hey, all you ass-kissing politically correct butt monkeys.....
GIMME A FREAKING BREAK ALREADY!!!!!!!
What? You don't have anything better to do with your lives? Haven't you ever heard the old nursery rhyme: "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me"? Sarah Palin...I'm sorry your kid is retarded, but I'm tired of hearing about how uppity your wolf killing psycho-bitch ass gets when someone else says something is F-ing Retarded. Was he talking about your kid when he made that comment? Was he referring to retarded kids at all for that matter? No. Had he said "Sarah Palin's retarded kid makes me shit my pants from laughing every time I see his kooky little mongoloid face.", then yeah, I'd say it was time to get in your chopper and go hunting for liberals. The truth is, he did NOT say that, or anything vaguely like it. So take all your crabby bullshit and shove it back up your poop chute, Legs.
I'm not picking on retarded people. I try to be respectful to the best of my ability, but sometimes people really get stupid about these things and it irritates the hell out of me. Everybody, please, give your whining a rest. It makes you look like a bunch of nit-picking bitch-boys (and girls). Let's get back to focusing on what's really important.....lynching all the CEO's and officers of all the companies who received those giant bailout checks. They need to be strung up by their toes and let people throw dog crap at them for a month while we give all their property to those poor Haitian folks. Now THAT's what I call justice.

A Fag In Fox
Ah....the winter Olympics. Another chance to watch scantily clad women glide artistically across a frozen expanse in time to classical music....wait.....uh, that's not a woman? WTF? OH, DUDE! THAT'S A DUDE, DUDE! Where's he get off wearing a woman's outfit like that? In other words....GIMME A FREAKING BREAK ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!
Johnnie Weir, you are a bright, shining spot on America's Gaydar. Yeah, you're gay. There's no denying it. Guy's don't comment on how 'pretty' their outfits are or that they feel 'pretty' wearing them.....except for those fruits that like to dress up in womens' underwear and look at themselves in the mirror they keep showing on Springer reruns. I'm not taking exception with that, though, froo-froo boy, what you do in the privacy of your own home is your business, it's that little tuft of fur on your shoulder that's pissing me off.
You see, 'pretty' boy, those homo's who put your ensembles together get that fur from some really scummy people who like to torture animals. In my book, if you kill something, you damn well better eat it, unless it's a bug or a snake. (You can sell the snakes to the Cajuns and the bugs to the French...they're into that stuff.) The point is, killing stuff for the sake of fashion is wrong. How would you like it if some nut came along and stuck an electrode up your ass and zapped you to make a set of seat covers? (Scratch that, you're gay....you'd probably LOVE the first part....) Anyway, you Little Richard wannabe, get with the freaking program. Do you really want to be harassed by crazy PETA ladies the rest of your life? I have it on good authority some of them have Hepatitis. Things could get VERY ugly for you.
Fear not, there IS salvation for you. You must denounce furry-assed feminine costumes and get yourself some manly camouflage stuff along with combat boot style skates. Every now and then, drink a beer and don't be afraid to let one rip in front of the judges. Start reading Hustler when you have the time and smack every pretty girl on the backside as she passes by and be sure to give her a big wink and a thumbs up afterward. (If at all possible, ask her for her phone number.) Last, but not least, keep your winky out of the stinky, if you know what I mean. If you follow these simple steps, you too, can be a man, Johnboy. Good luck.

The Truth Behind Global Warming At Long Last
.....Don't blame me, it was the dog! Yeah, I'm guilty of passing the buck onto a scapegoat pooch when I fart in the company of hot young women. Who hasn't? Now, however, a few scientists are saying our pets are the real carbon violators behind global warming by stating a medium sized dog has a carbon footprint twice that of an SUV. Holy shit! They claim it takes over two acres of land to produce the average diet of such a dog. On average, these shit machines consume 360 pounds of meat and 209 pounds of cereal per year. Now I'm starting to fear for my own existence, because I shovel down a helluva lot more than that AND I drive a car that doesn't get the greatest mileage in the world. ( Although, in my defense, I have invented a device that would allow an electric car to travel indefinitely without needing to recharge, but no one wants me to produce it. I wonder why?) As the global warming boogeyman turns it's ever accusing finger in my direction as a dog owner, I really only have one thing to say..... Go fuck yourself Al Gore! No...wait, I did want to say that, but what I really meant to say was....GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK ALREADY!!!!!
The douche bags who are playing this blame game are jetting across the globe spewing jet fuel in all directions to get their message of doom to the masses when they could have just stayed home and sent a mass email instead. Why should we pay heed to what a bunch of asinine intellectuals in Copenhagen have to say when they continually blow resources on superfluous projects that continually wreak havoc on the world? Want to know what caused all the big El Nino trouble in the 90's? It was SDI space based laser weapons being used to conduct weather experiments by NOAA, NASA, and the rest of the U.S. government.
Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, Al Gore, the fat liar from Tennessee, used the odd weather patterns to launch his evil bid to make billions by coining the phrase Global Warming and making a movie to prove it. The only thing it proved is the Nobel committee is made up of really gullible idiots. Gore deserved his prize about as much as Obama did, which is not at all. All of this is merely a ruse to get an evil agenda passed onto the people of the Earth. They want a single world government and the ability to control people right down to how many children we can have. I say we start by chucking all of the climate cult doomsayers into a boat and setting them adrift. They are polluting the atmosphere will billions of cubic miles of bull shit...and we all know bull shit is full of green house gases.
I'm not saying we don't need to change a few things to make the world a better place. On the contrary, I wouldn't have spent countless hours developing green energy devices otherwise. I simply think we need to step back and take a look at the bigger picture. Who's profiting from the global warming scare? Al Gore and friends. They sell carbon credits to people who have guilty consciences over their so-called carbon foot prints. I started taking shits outside to show my displeasure with Mr. Gore's insane deception. Can you smell my green house gases Al? I baked those brownies just for you buddy. I am proof global warming is bull shit. I sent an email to the White House, home of lying-ass President Barack Obamamama about my invention and asking for help refining the technology. The response I got told me everything I needed to know about the government's commitment to improving the environment: Not Interested. It read something like this: Thank you for your recent email. At this time we are not interested in pursuing such technology, but we thank you for taking the time to write about your concerns. Translation? Fuck you very much, but the kickbacks we get from the oil industry make our efforts to help one such as you who could put them out of business overnight an effort to shoot ourselves in the foot and we damn sure don't want to do that! It's no wonder the world is so screwed up.
I am continuing my effort to produce my device on my own, but lacking the scientific equipment to test it's safe usage, I'm afraid to simply market it. I'm being honest about it when I say I intend to market it. Hell, why shouldn't I make a few bucks off global warming, too? At least my invention will actually help the environment. Can Al Gore honestly say the same?

Football Play Sparks Racial Riot On Internet
Today, Carolina's Dante Wesley was ejected from a football game for taking a cheap shot at Tampa's Clifton Smith during a punt return. Smith, having signaled for a fair catch, was bulldozed by an airborne Wesley and later determined to have suffered a concussion. The officials ejected Wesley after breaking up the fight that ensued on field between the two teams. But that's not the most interesting part of this story, the racial riot on Yahoo has been far more entertaining. Which leads me to say, once again, GIMME A FREAKING BREAK ALREADY!!!!!!!
What the hell turned a cheap shot on the gridiron into a cyberspace race war? First of all, both players involved in the debacle were black. What gives? For some reason, I could not pull up the initial comments made on the subject, so I do NOT know who threw the first racist punch. Both sides were throwing recriminations to the wind and things were only getting worse when I joined the fray. It's a damn football game, folks, calm down.
Ironically, pouring through the 1200 plus comments, I found both the worst, and the best, of the human spirit represented. One black lady quoted an eloquent remark she'd heard on a TV show: "We ain't what we should be, we ain't what we're going to be, but at least we ain't what we was." I found that remark both poignant and inspirational, not only for black people, but all of humanity.
There were equally discouraging remarks made by people from all walks of life and educational levels, as well. As such, another man pointed out a double-standard that has been forced upon whites. While I normally don't encourage the use of the 'N' word, I have said it myself out of anger and ignorance in the past. I find it perversely despicable that blacks use it as an affectation of solidarity and fellowship. That's why I couldn't understand why the word was suspiciously invisible on the forum while remarks of 'cracker' were everywhere. Is it just me, or did racism become an exclusively white club while I wasn't looking? I know more than my fair share of black bigots, so why are they treated as victims and whites as villains? I find myself being discriminated against daily, not for the color of my skin (I am of mixed heritage), but because I have a criminal record. Clearly, paranoia agents are everywhere, not just in the pigmentation of our flesh.
Wouldn't it be nice to wake up in a world where we had all set aside our petty differences? Sadly, that will never be the case. Mankind has not evolved enough to take the next step. We have proven, again and again, we are, at heart, wild savages capable of the most horrific acts of cruelty over trivial matters like race, sex, religion, politics, and especially, sports.

Monsterz Ball
Okay. It's mid-October. You know what that means. Yep. Every network is knocking the dust off of every monster movie you've ever heard of, including one guaranteed to give you the freakie shites for life: Trilogy Of Terror. I don't know if you've seen this little nugget or not, but it has genuinely freaked out millions of people, myself included. Hell, you should see how it effects my ex-wife. I can do that little Ya-ya-ya-ya! scream perfectly and, combine that with rattling knobs and swiping a steak knife under the door....well, she doesn't stop screaming 'til the sedatives kick in. Yeah, this movie definitely ranks very high on my fright factor film list, along with the original Salem's Lot with that spooky, blue, bald, buck-toothed vampire, John Carpenter's The Thing, and The Howling. There was also an episode of Tales From The Dark Side that featured a little monster under the bed and in the closet that looked kind of like an E.T. from Hell that had me leaping into my bed from the light switch for years...... Ahem. Getting back to my subject, though: The Zuni Fetish Doll. .......Is it just me, or does this dude look like Ronnie James Dio?
Seriously....dare to compare. You'll know for the first time, if he's evil, or divine.
Am I right, or what? Don't get me wrong, I love Dio's music. I've bought it all, even the ELF stuff and Angry Machines, so don't think I'm busting the man's proverbial balls....I'm not. I'm just saying, they have a passing resemblance. ......And he IS rather short... Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to get back under the blanket on my bed before the sun goes down. Oh, that's right...that doesn't keep the monsters at bay, either. THANKS A LOT CREATORS OF 'THE BOY WHO CRIED WEREWOLF'!!!!

BANG! ZOOM! To The Moon!
NASA has made it's intentions public to detonate a bomb laden missile on the southern pole of the moon this Friday in an attempt to find water. What's wrong with this picture? Humans, already over harvesting resources here on Earth to the point of causing major climactic changes, have become so bored they now want to do something equally as stupid and threatening to our neighbor Luna......GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK ALREADY!!!!!!!
This has all the ear marks of a science fiction horror movie. First of all....bombs, bad. Have they done any core drilling to find out precisely what is under the surface of Luna? No. There is going to be a plume of debris jettisoned into space from the blast. If it escapes Luna's gravity, and in all likelihood it will, guess where it will make landfall? Has anyone stopped to consider there might be micro-organisms in that cloud that could possibly wipe out life on Earth? No. We're talking about NASA after all, the people who spend billions of our tax dollars so egg-headed nerds without a lick of common sense can play in their sandbox in the sky.
What has all their research yielded us? Space underwear, for starts. You heard me. A Japanese astronaut created underwear to keep him from getting stinky in space. That's about the only practical application I've heard of. But for me, there are a lot of 'what ifs' they need to address before following through with this plan.
What if their bombs shift Luna's rotation? If the moon starts spinning faster than it does, it will have a direct effect on it's gravitational pull which, in turn, will have a direct bearing on our own gravity and wreak unholy hell on the tides.
What if it causes a shift in the moon's orbit? Does anyone know how important the moon's role is in connection with the Earth? We're back to tidal forces again: The moon has a direct influence on the oceanic tides. If the moon comes closer to the Earth, it will spell disaster. Global coastal flooding on a daily basis will ensue. Countless acres of land will be lost and millions of homes and businesses will be destroyed.
What if the bombs strike a fault line and tears the moon apart? Do any of us want a city-sized chunk of moon rock landing here on Earth? Can you say catastrophe? I knew you could. It would trigger a mass extinction event which would most likely kill off humanity. Score one for the doomsayers. I don't want the premise of H.G. Well's The Time Machine to come to fruition. Spare me the Morlocs, please.
What if they rain down a new type of super-virus? Scientists have discovered asteroids that crash landed here eons ago which had microscopic life embedded in them. Do we really need another black plague? Which leads me to the far-fetched.....
What if they disturb an advanced alien race living subterraneously on the moon? What if those bombs piss them off? Who's to say they won't fly over here and open up a jumbo sized can of whoop ass on Mother Earth? As ridiculous as the notion is, I've gotten to the point of thinking nothing is impossible. Hell, even scientists say bumblebees shouldn't be able to fly, given the improbable relation to their mass versus their wing area......but the bumblebee doesn't know that.
Given what we already know of NASA's past blunders.....SDI lasers used to melt polar ice to gauge the effect on global weather patterns, or using the same to super heat water in cold regions of the pacific to study effects on oceanic currents, shouldn't we be a bit more concerned with this latest stupid and costly excursion?

A Handyman's Guide To Fixing America.
A lot has been said in recent times about the dire situation we Americans find ourselves in today. Unemployment, war, recession, and unaccountable government and corporate spending...... These are just a few of the conundrums plaguing us. We've all heard the so-called experts opinions on how to resolve our problems, but not one of them has said a thing about the quickest way to achieve it. GIVE ME A FREAKING BREAK ALREADY!!!!!!! We need to gut our government!
You heard correct. Our government is at the very heart of the problem and the only way to fix things is by restructuring it from the top down. We'll keep the Presidency, of course, but we really don't require two senators from each state so, we'll cut that number in half. Next, we'll cut the entire House Of Representatives. They are a redundant body and, as anyone who's ever tuned into C-SPAN can tell you, not worth a shaky shit to begin with. If you factor in their salaries as well as all the personal aides that would be canned along with them, not to mention those gigantic spending allowances they are entitled to every year, we will have saved ourselves millions of tax dollars every year.
I know it sounds good so far, but I'm not done yet. Next, we take our shears to State government. The governor of each state will be directly responsible to their senator. Under the governor, each county will have a single representative who will have as their subordinate their county's commissioner who, in turn, will preside over the mayors of all the towns therein.
Now, let's talk about accountability. Do you know why the prices of prescription drugs, gas, and health insurance are so high? In a word: Lobbyists. These are people who bribe politicians to vote in favor of, or against, legislation pertaining to their industries. I propose outlawing lobbying and sequestering politicians for the duration of their terms in office. Also, I propose the cessation of social get-togethers for politicians at the public's expense. Furthermore, any legislation concerning health care should be put on a ballet for the people to vote on. The last thing we need is for a bunch of corrupt politicians in the debt of special interest groups deciding the issue.
Need more spending cuts? How about this? We close all our foreign embassies and remove all of our troops from foreign duty. Our armed forces are there to protect America, not some corporation's assets. We can do the world a favor and annex Mexico, instead. Do you really think we'd have an immigration problem if Mexicans were able to make a decent wage in their homeland? Just think about how secure our border would be if we owned everything between Canada and the Panama Canal. True, that means taking over Central America, too, but it would only improve their lives as well. Of course, that means the CIA would have to look elsewhere to fund their dirty ops when their drug trade dried up. That's okay, we can live with that.
There's another sector in which we can start producing major savings, too. The prison system is over-crowded and very expensive. I say put them to work. Any crime carrying a sentence of ten years or less....let's call it one year at hard labor. Serious crimes? Take them behind the courthouse and put a bullet in their head. Simple and cost-effective. Of course, it will mean revamping the legal system. I, for one, think judges should go to school to be judges and NOT fraternize with attorneys ever. Let's make that a crime, shall we? Also, we the people of this great country should get together and vote on appropriate salaries for all public officials based on the physical and mental demands of the job first and foremost. That means police officers, fire fighters, and teachers get considerable raises, while office workers and attorneys take a pay cut. Simply put, you sit on your asses all day doing very little for the amount of money you are paid.
Sadly, these humble opinions will fall on deaf ears for the most part. Americans are just too lazy to do anything about it. We have been happy to let a few predatory and unscrupulous people lead us down a path to ruin all in the name of the almighty Dollar. Well, we better get up and start exercising.....our rights that is.....before we wake up one day and realize we no longer have them. Think about that for awhile.

I propose outlawing lobbying and sequestering politicians for the duration of their terms in office. Also, I propose the cessation of social get-togethers for politicians at the public's expense. Furthermore, any legislation concerning health care should be put on a ballet for the people to vote on. The last thing we need is for a bunch of corrupt politicians in the debt of special interest groups deciding the issue.
Need more spending cuts? How about this? We close all our foreign embassies and remove all of our troops from foreign duty. Our armed forces are there to protect America, not some corporation's assets. We can do the world a favor and annex Mexico, instead. Do you really think we'd have an immigration problem if Mexicans were able to make a decent wage in their homeland? Just think about how secure our border would be if we owned everything between Canada and the Panama Canal. True, that means taking over Central America, too, but it would only improve their lives as well. Of course, that means the CIA would have to look elsewhere to fund their dirty ops when their drug trade dried up. That's okay, we can live with that.
There's another sector in which we can start producing major savings, too. The prison system is over-crowded and very expensive. I say put them to work. Any crime carrying a sentence of ten years or less....let's call it one year at hard labor. Serious crimes? Take them behind the courthouse and put a bullet in their head. Simple and cost-effective. Of course, it will mean revamping the legal system. I, for one, think judges should go to school to be judges and NOT fraternize with attorneys ever. Let's make that a crime, shall we? Also, we the people of this great country should get together and vote on appropriate salaries for all public officials based on the physical and mental demands of the job first and foremost. That means police officers, fire fighters, and teachers get considerable raises, while office workers and attorneys take a pay cut. Simply put, you sit on your asses all day doing very little for the amount of money you are paid.
Sadly, these humble opinions will fall on deaf ears for the most part. Americans are just too lazy to do anything about it. We have been happy to let a few predatory and unscrupulous people lead us down a path to ruin all in the name of the almighty Dollar. Well, we better get up and start exercising.....our rights that is.....before we wake up one day and realize we no longer have them. Think about that for awhile.
