Am I Prejudice? Racist? Or Just a Red Blooded American


If you don't know me very well, I am a bit of all three of the above question. I feel that there is prejudices and racism in all of us, in one way or another. Now I'm not talking about "white sheets with holes in it" racism, nor "immigration calling" prejudice, however, there is always a bit of favoritism to what ever race, ethnicity, and or religion that you are and or believe in. That is not wrong necessarily but just human nature. What I can tell you, though, is this. And maybe you won't agree with me. What happened at Harvard last year is not only appalling but lack for better words, bullshit. What happened at Harvard last year? I'm glad you asked!!!



Earlier this year around February, I saw a newscast on CNN, discussing are nations top, most well-known, let alone respected schools, none other the Harvard University. Yes the same university that has graduated over 33 Pulitzer Prize winners, 19 Supreme Court Justices, such leaders as John Adams the sixth president of the United States, JFK, FDR, and George W. Bush, and this list is just the tip of the iceberg for the, "whos, who" list of Harvard University. What were they discussing you might ask? Again I'm glad you asked!!!



The discussion was that the Muslim women of the campus were offended with allowing all walks of life, be it, any religion, race, or gender to be allowed in the main campus gym at the same time.

"If the women are dressed in a manner that makes it more comfortable to exercise, they may not feel it’s appropriate for them to be viewed by men in that particular attire," said one Muslim student, to be left un-identified.



So what did this proud Ivy-League school do to accommodate the situation. It closed its main gym to all others walks of life other then Muslim women.

"Since Jan. 28, the Quadrangle Recreational Athletic Center has been open only to Muslim women from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Mondays." -AP



Let me make something very, very clear. I don't give two shits what religion you are and I don't truly, at my core, care what country you come from, however at times you river hoppers piss me off. I think it is great that our great country allows so many from so many places to come and try to make a name for themselves and give them everything they need to make that happen. But where my patience wears thin is when these same people open their DAMN MOUTHS. Listen very clearly, come as you wish but if you don't like it the way it is....... GO HOME!!!!! I did not force you to come to this country, you brought yourself, and why? Because we are the land of the free and the home of the brave. You came here, on your own two feet, to make it better for yourself or your family, and we provided the landscape to do so. So don't you DARE come here and demand we change the very landscape you so badly wanted in the first place.

As for the argument that the United States is to be fair to all people that come here, and that is the core of what we stand for, absolute freedom. Well, I agree with that to a certain extent. Yes, the freedom that we stand for is freedom not just to do and say as you want, but also to be FREE from tyranny and hatred for your own beliefs. So I understand that we must be fair to that and make it as easy as possible, however, when that politically correct bullshit gets in the way of the actual citizens of this great country, well that's were I have a problem with it. As for the Harvard situation, I would have no qualms if there was a fundraiser hosted by the university to raise money for opening a new gym, that was for women only, or something like that, because that would affect the others there. However, to change the hours in which certain people can attend the gym is ludicrous.

What would these same people say if I wanted to go to Harvard and say that from 3-6 the gym is only for white Anglo-Saxons devoted to Jesus Christ. Not only would Al Sharpton be down my ass(which by the way is something that I can only imagine is like being at the ninth gate of hell), but every religious group in the country would be down my ass as well. So how is this any different. Ill tell you..... Its not...... It is the exact same thing and I am sick of it.

So here this, SHUT UP OR GO HOME. Its simple people. Come as you wish, come as you are, but promise me one thing. That if you don't like it don't try to change it,just pack up and head back to wherever you came from.......QUIETLY!!!!

Time Travel ??????


I know this sounds a bit weird because those who know me know that I am not one for deep thought. Infact I avoid the exercise all together. However, I was thinking today and I think I thought of a resonable few of a pheasable way for time travel. Now hear me out before you start tuning out and reading something else.


It start with a bit of Science class..... For those who dont know, when you look at the sun or see the light the is from the sun that is actually the light that was produced 8 minutes before. In other words it takes approximately 8 minutes for the light to travel from the sun to earth. This is important because it is the basis for my theory on time travel. If science tells us that it takes 8 minutes for light to travel the distance from the sun to the earth, then let me ask a simple question. Would that mean if you were some how able to travel from the sun to the earth in less then 8 minutes then you would reach earth before the image of yourself arrived, and if so where would you be. I know that this sounds weird but think about it. All that we know and believe is usually by sight, I mean this is the most powerful of our senses when deciding what we do and do not believe. "I'll believe it when I see it," right?



So again I ask, if you were somehow able to travel faster then the speed of light then where would you be and when you got there what would you see? Wow, I think Im freaking myself out with this one. But it makes you think does'nt it. What would be around you, what would you be able to see. Back to the sun thing, if you got back from the sun in less then 8 minutes would you be able to look back and see yourself arrive. And if so would the people around you be able to see you standing there. This is why I think that time travels exist at the speed of light, if you are able to break through that berriar then your are traveling into the future, maybe just by a few minutes but in the future non the less. Who knows maybe when you break the speed of light then you are in another world, a world where physics arent what they seem, up is down, down is up, right is left, you get my drift. I know that this doesnt sound like it makes sense but neither did traveling to the moon back in the 40's. Or shit what if I tried to tell the general publinc about the internet in the 1920's. Do you see what Im saying, just because it sounds impossible doesnt mean that it is. Any way thats what I think so fuck off if you dont like it.

Ignorance at an Alltime high


Well it has been over a year and a half since my last blog and although I would love to keep my page as is with the first thing you see being a 6 foot whales penis, I have something that I saw today that I have to write about.

I saw an article today on Fox News that absolutely infuriated me. The story is from Chandler, Arizona, and is about a serial rapist that is on the loose. Not only that but this sick fuck only rapes young children. It goes on to say that he waits until the parents go to work and then goes into the home in the morning before the child goes to school. He then proceeds to threaten with a weapon of some sort then sexually assaults them. Now although this person is by no means being let of the hook by me(and in all honesty if he drug up dead tomorrow I would upset that I wasn't able to do it myself). But this is not the person that I am angry at or writing about today. I just told you this story to set up some back round on the hole issue.

The issue that I am most upset about is this..... There is a radio station in Chandler Arizona that is mad at the police because when they sent out the descriptions to radio stations and news stations that they used the word "Hispanic" to describe the person. They say the this is not only racially profiling but also stereotyping. HOLY SHIT!!!! I don't even know if this story needs anymore attention what so ever but none the less I am pissed and want to write about it. What kind of insignificant shit would hear about a story like this and instead of doing her part on the radio to help catch this guy instead decided to complain to the police because of the verbage they used in describing the rapist.

And as if they police station needed any help in defending themselves in a situation like this the articled added that the police did take into consideration the complaint but then decided that it would be in the best interest of the case to leave the description as is. When asked why they used the word "Hispanic" They responded, "Five victims between the ages of 12 and 14 have described their assailant as Hispanic." Come on, it was a bunch of kids that described him and this is the description that they gave.

No that the story is out of the way this is the section where I vent a little about this Mayra Nieves ( or whatever the hell her "Hispanic" name is). Lets get something real straight real quick, I don't give a rats ass what ethnicity you are or what background you think you have, nor the forum in which you think you can stand on to even bring this complaint to fruition but you don't. YOU DON'T... You are just another Hispanic American complaining because the world is not fair to your "poor" ethnicity. Give me a damn break. You are probably some illegal alien mad because we( The US of A) having giving you your papers quick enough, and if that's the case go back from where you came from. And if you are born and raised here in the States then you represent the small percentage of me who is embarrassed at times to call myself an American. Our country has gotten so "free" that we seem to forget what we stand for. And if Miss Mayra wants to take Amendments to her defense as to why she spoke out or who gave the right to speak out in such a childish, piss poor manor, then let me be the first to assure you "Miss Tex-Mex" that our four fathers in no way created the Free Speech amendment for assholes like you who use it as a crutch to stand on when they know that what they said has nothing else to lean against to form any sort intelligent or rational thought. And let me guess "Miss Hispanic", if this happened to your son or daughter you would do the same thing right. If your kind daughter was raped this morning and they came with a description and it said Hispanic you would call and stop the search and ask them to start over with a new description. What a silly fuck you are.. Of course you wouldn't but since you aren't the one in pain you feel you have the right to make stupid comments like the one you just did and help do nothing but slow down the search. What a stupid fuck you are Mayra, and I hope you smarten up the next time you feel like using your talk show to speak out on subjects that you have no right discussing.

Penis Envy.....


Is this thing serious I mean I know that this is a whale and I am a human but good God even if I were think about this in terms of just ratio to body size I would be put to shame, I mean this would be a two foot penis on me. I am no Ron Jeremy (and for those who dont know this name just google him and you will understand) but good gracious, I am truley jealous of this beast. However with all of this said, I have to admit that after this picture there are a few things about my body that I feel uncomfortable with. I mean dear God this is just killing me. I wish whales could talk because if they could, me and the Pink Mammoth would sit down and discuss how wonderful of an influence he is. It almost makes me want to change faiths to being a Buddist so that I could be reincarnated and hope to anything above that I would be this guy with a pink giant of my own. Anyway sorry for this blog but try to bear with me.

Dear God......

* Now I know that at the end of this blog there are going to be a few people out there who think that I'm dis-tasteful, or maybe a bit rude, especially those at my mothers work place but you know what, that's what makes this country great, I can do it anyway.


You know what? This is probably going to be the shortest blog of my blogging career part because I'm almost at a lost for words but secondly because I feel the picture speaks for itself.

First of all I would like to know whose idea it was for this vixen to pose, and secondly who thought that it would be an added touch to let her partners hang out so unprotected like they are. The next thing that I am wondering looking at this picture is what is going through the name of the photographer during all of this. My hope, or dream for that matter is that this was all his idea, and I am picturing him in the back round blasting off commands like a real photographer trying to capture the moment.
"Nice, now turn, your a tiger, growl for me, that's great, stay there, oh yeah you are on fire, now you are angry, give me Al Pacino in Carlitos Way, perfect, now roar like a lion, oh my god this is too good."
Or something like that......
Anyway that's my thoughts, comment back and let me know what you think.

Tell me your kidding 'Stros'.....


I just spent some time on the internet reading through some of the transactions this off-season in Major League Baseball and let me be the first to tell you that it was a busy off-season. For everyone but the Astros that is. I would love to think that this off-season was busy, however lacking the star power of some of the off-seasons in the past, and that the Astros arent busy because there is no one that could help our ball club out there. I mean we were the 2005 NL champions ya know. So I made a list, a short one mind you, of the players that will be changing teams next year, that just might of been benificial to the Astros. In no particular order they are;

Johnny Damon, Josh Beckett, Mike Lowell, Jim Thome,Corey Patterson, Lyle Overbay, Wade Miller, Juan Pierre, Jeremy Burnitz, J.T. Snow, Mike Piazza, Larry Walker, Brian Giles, Kyle Farnsworth, Paul La Duca, Sean Burroughs, Mike Cameron, Rafeal Furcal, Troy Glaus, Reggie Sanders, Sean Casey, Tony Womack, Edgar Renteria, Alsonso Soriano, Milton Bradley, Nomar Garciapara, Kenny Lofton, Steve Finley, Rondell White, Juan Eccarnacion, Mark Loretta, A.J Burnett, Kevin Millwood, Billy Wagner, Coco Crisp, Daryle Ward, Frank Thomas, Kevin Mench, Julian Tavarez and last but not least Alex Gonzalez.

This is just a short list of the many players that are switching teams this year and NOT coming to the Astros. And why not might you ask, is it that our team is already as good as we could be, is it that these players would ruin our team chemistry from a year ago. Would if I told you that is was none of the above, but instead or ownership is just too damn cheap to make this club any better. And for all of you chirping in with information on how we got Roger and Andy Pettite 2 years ago, just do me a fvor and shut up. If you think that we got anyone of the two of them because we offered the most money then you are crazy. If you think we got any one of the two of them because of anything other then the fact we are in Roger Clemes hometown, then please bend over and let me stick a tack hammer right were it counts. And if you are wondering what the Astros did this off-season to better the club, well let me tell you. Here is our list of transactions;

Signed Preston Wilson (not too bad, but it goes all down hill from here), re-signed Russ Springer (thank God, I thought we were were going to have to settle for Julian Tavarez or Kevin Millwood, or Josh Beckett) re-signed Brad Ausmus ( I know he is a vocal leader, but shit does that mean he is not blamed for being the hit-less wonder of our team) released Jose Visciano (led the Astros in batting Avg. in 2003, and possibly our best off the bench reliable hitter) released Orlando Palmero ( if not Visciano then this is the man) re-signed Lidge (this would be great however we really showed him how much we loved him and signed him long term...a 1 year deal) claimed the insurance on Jeff Bagwell sighting he is unfit to play, and last but not least declined arbitration for Roger Clemens (have no fear guys we did sign Russ Springer (pictured here)).

This is why were are the Astros and everyone else isnt.

"Super" Bowl.....Who are we kidding


After wasting last nights game I came to a depressing feeling of waste and pure denial of what the Super Bowl really was this year. A game between the J.V. (NFC) Seattle Seahawks and the Varsity Practice Squad (AFC) Pittsburgh Steelers. Now don't get me wrong I am as happy for Pittsburgh and Jerome Bettis and Bill Cowher as the next guy is but come on, don't let that blind you from the fact that the game that millions of people watched last night was as anti-climatic as it comes. Does anyone really think that the Pittsburgh Steelers are a better team then the Indianapolis Colts, or that the Seattle Seahawks or the entire NFC for that matter had any body playing for them that could have run with any of the teams representing the AFC in the playoffs. And if you answer any of the above questions yes, your one of four things; a Steelers fan, a Seahawks fan, and idiot or an Irishman working at Gullo (I love you man). But seriously that game was a joke. What happened to the good old days where the REAL teams with the REAL players came to play and display their unbelievable talents to the world. Last night a saw a "young phenom" in Ben Rothlisberger throw 2 interceptions with no touchdowns, while only completing 9 passes. On the other side of the ball I was blessed to watch the reigning NFL MVP rack up a whopping 92 yards. What the hell has the "Super Bowl" turned into. And for those of you who know me you know where I am going with this, however, what happened to the good old days when Joe Montana and Jerry Rice and Marcus Allen and Max Magee played and truly showed why their teams where there, and more importantly why they helped their team get where they were. Joe Montana, the only man to win 3 Super Bowl MVP's, has a 72% completion rate in 4 games, averaging 287 yards and 9 total touchdowns and O interceptions. Jerry Rice has every record you could have for a receiver not just for a single super bowl but for a career in super bowls. He also has an MVP following the game against the Cincinnati Bengals where he racked up 12 catches for over 200 yards and 3 touchdowns. Where are the Marcus Allen's of the world, who until a lucky run and bad defensive play last night, had the record for longest run in a Super Bowl, and still has the record for most yards in a game in a super bowl. And for you old schoolers, Max Magee, who played in the first 2 super bowls with the Green Bay Packer, who averaged 8 catches a game 118 yards, and had 3 touchdowns. Instead, last night we got an ex-Miami of Ohio quarterback (Rothlisberger), going 9-22 for a buck thirteen with two pics. Then on top of that we get an ex-Georgia quarterback, converted wide-receiver as Super Bowl MVP, with only 5 catches, now he did accumulate 123 yard, however 55 of them came on a trick play where the Seahawks really showed their defensive talent. And to top it off the man throwing the ball wasn't even the quarterback, but instead a ex-quarterback turned wide-receiver from a I-AA School. Christ!!! What has this game come too, I am not a fan of the Patriots by any means, but let me tell you something. At least when they show up to play they show up to play. You don't have to worry about if Brady will have a good game of not, you don't have to worry if Brusche will lead the defense to a near flawless game, stepping up most when it counts, and for Heaven's sake you will not see 2 missed field goals that could totally change the dynamic of a game from Adam Vineterri. You will also need to note that I am not a Cowboys fan, not by ANY stretch, infact I could honestly say I hate the cowboys, but there is a reason the have won 5 Super Bowls, and its not because they had the best team in the NFC with one star player who played great until...... But instead they had a great team who had many great players all worthy of MVP and a defense that was worthy of any acculades thrown at them. And guess what.....When it was time to play it was time to play. None of this, 'lets win this one for Bettis' bullshit. NO they were the best and knew that they could do nothing but win, not for anyone person but for their own pride and own hard work, and you know what else for the fans. Jerome I love you but that win was not for you it was for Pittsburgh.
Maybe next year we can get a matchup that will entertain the masses, and maybe and just maybe we can see some teams where their talent field isn't restrained to regular season games only. I'm not asking for the Niners to reincarnate their whole team and play again, although it would'nt be bad for the NFL, or me for that matter, but Christ Almighty, can we please get some teams next year with some players that don't mind making a name for themselves in a big game, is that too much to ask for.

So I'm not the only one....

I am in the process of reading a new book. For those who know me I'm sure that the first thing you are thinking is that I'm full of shit, both you and I know that I don't read, but really this is the truth I really am reading. Any way, I reading this new book entitled "100 People Screwing Up America; and Al Franken is #37." This book is an absolute genius. The author, Bernard Goldberg, a raving right wing conservative, is as right on as anyone could be about our nation and the people within it. His entire book is about America Bashers and why they are doing nothing but make this a worst place to live. He talks about anyone from feminist to tree-huggers, from politicians who think they are celebrities to (and might I say by far worse) celebrities that think they are politicians. One of the first people he hits on as one of the 100 people screwing up America is Laurie David. That's right all you Seinfeld fans, that would be Larry Davids wife. He talks about this lady and how she is a super environmental Nazi, so far gone that she actually pulls people over driving SUV's to yell at them for the damage they are doing to the ozone layer. That that is a bit much as we might expect but you haven't heard the best part yet. She travels from LA to NY once a week to talk about saving the environment, and she does so flying in a private jet. So the wonderfully Mr. Goldberg did the calculations and for each trip from LA to NY a private jet like the one her and her husband own, burns more fuel in one trip then a Hummer does in one year driving 15,000 miles. Wait a minute, that cant be correct. There is no way that this high powered guest speaker and environmental Nazi could possibly be gallivanting around the nation trying to teach people to save the planet when she is riding in the single most un-fuel efficient mode of transportation known to the human race. There is no way that someone could be this ignorant. I mean I know that Hollywood is stacked with some pretty dumb, close minded, egotistical people, but this is way past the line. And the worst part about it is, is that when asked and confronted about this her response was, "Well some times you just have to decide how far you will go to help, I mean I cant do it all." What the fuck does that mean, that's not an answer!! There is no way the reporter let her off that easy, its impossible. Christ!!!! There should be an island for all these people to go to and just hang out together so that they could do no more harm, and I don't mean Staten Island, that's already too populated.
Another top brain of our nation that is so sadly made an example of is the wonderfully, non racial minded, free-spirited,Sheila Jackson Lee. This is a women who fell so far from tree that its not even funny. (By the way what I am about to tell you is completely true, in fact I couldn't make something this good up). Ms. Lee, with all her wisdom and support on equal opportunity and racist free living actually claimed that during this last stint of hurricanes that so terribly washed through the southern United States, were unfairly named. I repeat, UNFAIRLY NAMED. That's right, she feels that hurricanes should have more black names associated with them. I mean seriously, there is no way that this is real, I sit and read it myself and hope that I will wake up and notice that I'm in a nightmare and this will all end soon. But it never happens, this is real, she really feels this way. Christ all might, get a life PLEASE. Ms. Lee not only are you a waste of time and good air but you are a burden on the future growth of Texas, and tea United States as a whole. Please find a quite city somewhere and move, never to be seen again. And what really gets me is that even if we were to name them after more traditional African American names like Shaniqua, or Laticia then as soon as the hurricane was over who would be the first person we would hear from, of course Sheila Jackson Lee, saying that its unfair to name such natural disasters after black people and that we are holding them down. What a load of shit, Shiela go find that island or city fast because you are no longer wanted here. I would rather take advice from the likes of Paris Hilton and Nicole Ricci then you. So please do us all a favor and shut the oversized mouth of yours until you have something a little more intelligent to say.
