...could it have been HOW you asked me...
...or could it have been WHAT you asked me...
...maybe it's WHEN you asked me...
all i know is that YOU'RE ON FUCKIN' CRACK...
You just might be a Texan if your underwear was made to carry concealed handguns. :) A buddy of mine out here is actually thinking about getting a pair of those badboys... he's not crazy, he's just Texan. The scary part is that I'm becoming so Texan that I found myself thinking these were pretty nifty. ;)
In a post Clinton-era we knew things would change. Post 9/11 we knew the federal government would clamp down and that we'd be trading freedoms and conveniences for security. We all know that we don't live in a true democracy in that we choose leaders to make the decisions for the people. But in a "democracy" where people are apathetic and uninformed, we're leaving a LOT of power in the hands of a few people.
Next thing you know we'll have cameras in our living rooms and immigrants will have to wear little gold stars on their clothing.
I just saw this headline come accross my Google desktop bar, and HAD to rant. In my days in the Valley I've heard all kinds of euphamisms for people getting canned; layoffs, cutbacks, downsizing, RIFs, etc. But NONE are as misleading or inflamatory as "release". I mean they make it sound like they've caught an undersized Steelhead they're letting off the hook.
