Carlin’s spot on here.

Airport security does absolutely nothing other than making white people FEEL safe.

You’re not going to get killed by a terrorist. You just won’t. You’re gonna die by some soccer mom in an SUV who’s yelling at her stupid kids and not paying attention to the road. That’s how you’re gonna die, but you can’t ban that.

White folks are scared of the boogie man. The boogie man is now a tall skinny Muslim guy with a beard who says weird things in a language white people don’t understand.

I normally wouldn’t let that bother me what scares white people but the reason it does is:
1) it infringes on my Right to travel,
2) it slows down flying to a fucking crawl. I mean, God damn (pardon my French), I was stuck in the Vegas airport for four fucking hours because airport security made the lines so slow. I could have driven and at least listened to my Metal on the way home,
3) airport security is getting white people used to a police state, which is my absolute biggest fear. I stick out. I can’t exactly blend in. Historically, police states don’t bode well for people who don’t look like everyone else.

My wife and I religiously go to the local Farmer’s Market.  It’s for several reasons - I believe in Slow Foods (I’ve written about the Slow Food movement in the past), I believe in eating organic when possible, and I also believe that as a capitalist, you should support independent farmers as they’re good for business and good for the environment.  It’s also a great place to check out babes and listen to good local music.

I always bring $40.  That will get the three of us a lot of good food, and the rest goes into the musicians’ tip jars.  So I come home with nothing but credit cards.  Yes, I still have cash but that’s my technique.  I’m on foot, so can’t spend the rest of my cash as it’s at home.

On the way home, I’ve been noticing more and more homeless folk.  Yes, I know that a lot of homeless are alcoholic losers.  But we’re seeing more and more of them and sometimes they’re not losers; just people with really bad luck.  We’re seeing a lot more of the latter now.

So a homeless guy asked if I had spare change and I told him honestly I didn’t have a penny left as I gave it all away to the musicians at the Farmer’s Market.  He asked if I had spare food.  Usually I buy a bunch of Mexican food (from the Farmer’s Market) but I didn’t have any this time.

Bailouts

Meanwhile, YOUR tax money went to billions of dollars for bailouts for the super rich.  If there’s any example of socialism for the rich, it was that bank bailouts.  What the fuck were you thinking if you supported the bailouts? No, the economy wouldn’t have fallen apart.  That’s what they want you to believe and your stupid politicians fell for it.  Meanwhile, they gave themselves $46 billion in bonuses in the FIRST YEAR alone with YOUR tax money and threw huge parties.

Bad for business

I take my credit score seriously.  Sad thing about credit score is you’re encouraged to have long relationships with banks.  My bank that I’ve been a customer at was one of the banks that got the bailout money.  They had the audacity to tell me that they have new fees where they charge a $10 a month service fee if I didn’t have either $1500 in the checking account or direct deposit.  I really wanted to tell them to fuck themselves and close the account, but because of my credit score (history), I decided not to.

I’d much rather do business with a credit union.  We’re slowly moving over to the local ones.  For one, their customer service is superior.  For another, they’re not a bunch of evil assholes like the big banks.

Look, we should have let the big banks fail.  If you know anything about capitalism, you should know that monopolies are bad for business.  They’re bad for business and bad for the consumer.  Plus, they have these fat lobbies and end up having too much political power as we’ve seen with the bailouts.

Had those big banks failed, we’d have a better banking system.  Thousands of little banks would have taken their business and it would have been better for the consumer.

We lost in so many ways with those bailouts.  Vote them all out, folks.  Everyone who supported the bailouts needs to go.

So, First Lady Michelle Obama in a concern about obesity is trying to raise awareness to the benefits of breastfeeding.  You’d think that would be a good thing, right (especially considering how much obesity causes us taxpayers in health care expenses)? Well, Palin’s having a cow and saying that Ms. Obama is doing the Nanny State thing.

You know me.  I’m the first person to oppose the Nanny State.  I’m also no fan of the O Bummer Administration either.  You know I supported the Ron Paul campaign.

But let’s call a spade a spade.  Palin SUPPORTED the bank bailouts and the military industrial complex which is one of the primary causes for our nation’s deficit in the first place.  Ms. Obama talking about breastfeeding isn’t even one percent of one percent of the problem that either of those created.  Not even close.  Not even in the same ballpark.  Like I said, not even one percent of one percent.

So I got four words for Ms. Palin - “shut up, you hypocrite.”

OK, I’ll write something.  I just got back on a date with my wife.  Yes, we date, at least once a week.  It was her idea.  She read it somewhere that couples that date last longer.  I think it’s good advice.  We’re both busy people.  She’s no longer a housewife and works full-time.  I work as a Software Engineer so needless to say, I’m working a lot of hours.

That’s why I neglect this blog.  Sometimes, the absolute LAST thing I want to do is see a computer.

I’m glad I’m a man.  It’s not for the reasons you think though.  It’s simply because I can trust all my male friends.   A woman often can’t trust her female friends.  Does that sound sexist? Funny thing is, I bet two to one women will back me up on this.

Why is “fuck” a worse word than “bloody hell?”

–

Which brings me to why did “Clerks” have to lobby for an R rating while “Hostel” got an R rating? Our priorities must be out of whack.

I got a good life.  I work a lot of hours, but it’s something I don’t mind doing.  Biggest advice I can give to teenagers is do what you like.  The money is secondary.

–

Adults who say otherwise have their priorities out of whack.  Just smile and nod but keep this to yourself - “they can go fuck themselves.”  Or better yet, “bloody hell they’re stupid.”

You’ll be at work 40 hours a week.  Or more.  That’s a lot of bloody hell hours.  If you hate your job, you’ll hate your life.  Time is more important than money.  And your mental health is more important than your money as well.

–

Another tip to make your relationship work - play a game together.  I strongly suggest a game called Pandemic. You have to communicate well or else you’ll lose.  It’s a game where you all win or you all lose, so you’re a team working together, not against each other.

My wife and I play this game at least a few times a week.

Aaron Rodgers is the best Quarterback in the NFL today.  Think otherwise? Well, ten years from now, nobody’s going to agree with you.  Everyone will agree with me.

For the record, I predicted the Packers to win the Super Bowl after the 2010 season.  I was right.

I’m writing this from a Linux desktop.  I love it.

OK, I’m logging off soon and going to get the bloody hell away from this computer shortly and won’t see it again until tomorrow night.  Like I said, sometimes the last thing I want to see when I get home is a computer.

It’s too bad neither of these men are President.  We’d have a much better country.

More Freedom, less government spending on stupid shit.  Yes, it is that simple.

Take 10 minutes to watch this.
