President Elect Barack Obama
Now that the dust has settled from election day, the country is adjusting to the idea of having our next President be a Democrat. Unfortunately, a whole lot of people are obsessing with the idea that the man is black. I don’t want to talk politics here on my here very much, but I will take a stand on this particular issue. I think anyone who voted for Obama or against Obama strictly for the only reason that he is black - all ya’ll are racists. Period. And you need serious help with that problem, people.
I have to imagine what the election results would have been if the color of the skin of these two men was reversed? What if McCain was black and Obama was white? I think we would have had a totally different election.
This tells me that this country continues to have some deep seated, serious issues with race. And I’m not talking about just white people having the issues. And we need to bring this out in the open and deal with it.
Halloween Fun
The whole day has been crazy with people dressed in costumes and being goofy.
Like when I stopped to get gas at the convenience store, I was inside buying the morning newspaper and a guy came it with some special effects and makeup to look like he had a huge bolt stuck in his temple. There was fake blood running down his cheek and his eye was discolored. It was painful to look at him, but he was having a lot of fun grossing people out with his costume.
The Cowboys Comeback?
What happened to America’s team this year? I can’t believe how erratic this team is playing. We are the butt of so many jokes now - it’s disgusting.
The Commissioner has suspended that idiot PacMan Jones for his stupidity at a hotel party. Assaulted his bodyguard. How stupid is that? Of course, the bodyguard is not there to protect PacMan from others. They are there to babysit PacMan and keep him out of trouble with the law. So he can’t even handle that - he assaults the bodyguard and has the cops called on him anyway. What an idiot.
So guess what, without PacMan the team manages to pull a win out of their butts. How funny.
Tainted Saline
Saline solution for contacts was recalled last year and I never heard what became of that whole issue. Are people using a different brand of saline? Did they fix the problem with the saline that was recalled? Or is all of it dangerous?
I’m not comfortable with the thougth of getting contacts until I find out what the real deal is about the saline solution.
Is this isolated to just the saline used by contact lense wearers? What about all the saline used in hospitals and outpatient surgery centers? Is that safe or tainted?
The Hardees Commercials
Hardees hamburgers are not all that popular in these parts. There are only a few locations scattered about, so if you want a Hardees thickburger, you have to search for one. But the Hardees commericals are on all the TV channels and also radio and I have to say that having a thickburger is on my mind a little more often due to all the commercials.
The latest TV commerical shows a big thickburger and calls it ba-donk-a-donk. Then a smaller version plops down on the screen right next to it and calls it ba-dink-a-dink. That one cracks me up every time I see it!
