    It's part of a joke.

    It's from the perspective of always wanting to wrestle with a tall German woman. The ones I have met are shorter than I am.

    I was trying to be pornographic, not political.

    ------------------

    Seriously,

    I was being racist-that's the point.

    How can people ever get over themselves if they cannot be honest?

    I looked at this woman and iommediately labeled her a bigot-that she looked the way she did and the tele-fono-name-o deal surely didn't help.

    So, I was being racist, judgemental and probably a little sexist too.

    What happens now?

    ---------------------

    The part of racism that is blunt and kinda stupid? When people run around pointing at others about racism.

    I will take anyone to task about racism and prejudice.

    Here's the rub to the "Sunday/racism" story.

    The class continued and the woman who headed it-she was a danged sexy Mid Eastern woman -there I go again!-looked at the three woman who had raised their hand and asked them this.....


    Have you ever been behind a car with an elderly person driving?

    The room laughed.

    And have you ever cursed at them for driving slow?


    Tee Hee!

    So we were all prejudiced, at that moment, against elderly drivers.

    ------------

    I worked with this guy that would stop in the office and BS for a minute.

    He soon came to call me 'his n-----'.

    No tension, no harm-one day I asked him, "Can I ask you a question?"

    "Sure."

    I prefaced the question by saying I wasn't trying to be insulting-

    I said, "Aren't we all n------?"

    He grinned and said something like "you got it" and the funniest part about it is that he would see me in the HALLWAY and say, "how's my n-----?" like it was nothing.

    I didn't mention that he was black. Could THAT be construed as racism?


    Now that we got that out the way, I did call my two co-workers 'crazy'. I hope I didn't offend anyone that suffers from mental problems, with that statement!

    I loved this commercial in it's original form.


    Some nerdy white dude that..

    flys up in a hovercraft.
    dressed like a moron.
    knows who you and you wife are.
    can't pronounce your name,
    and wants to give you money?

    I guess I am in.....


    You can call me anything you want. Just make sure the name on the check is correct?

    Okay?

    I was in the kitchen and had the most racist thought imaginable.


    Hey, If it wasn't for your brown skinned neighbors to the south, all you all would not have guacamole, tortilla chips, nachos or salsa to eat on Super Bowl Sunday.

    You's be eating that salty brown or green onion dip made from the packet, with those nasty, saltier Ruffles potato chips.

    Rock on, my brothers and sisters!

    --------------

    I was having a crisis of conscience...



    WE invented the mashed bean, YOU put it into the can.

    You can have that, with melted Velveeta on game day.

    That's my only concession.

    LOL, My dad used that saying. It translates as "Are we going by hand?" and loosely means we will walk hand in hand. Or, we are even and saying that takes the place of a handshake.

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    A friend told me it meant " are we even?" or "we are even" I knew
    it wasn't dirty.

    You are taking all the fun out of it.

    You ARE supposed to think it's dirty.

    And for that?

    I had to chime in on the whole HR thing...

    Ive had the "privalege" of meeting the man. He struck me as a biggoted, over paid arse that had no connection to real life or how the world actually worked.

    Yet Nevada has been electing him since before I was in high school

    And I have a feeling that his current comments will only serve to get him MORE votes.

    Nevadans are cirtifiable I'm afraid...
