Separate but equal.


This is an outrage. I've been on the phone all weekend with the Rev. Al Sharpton and he assures me that we can stop the Super Bowl from coming to Glendale next year because Arizona is a racist state that allows its' Arizona State University to name its' tennis facilities, a traditionally white sport, "WHITEMAN Tennis Center." This is not only the most outrageous passive segregation technique in our day, but is also the sole cause for the relatively few number of African Americans in the sport of tennis. Arizona must be stopped in its' tracks before its' society reverts to even more extreme tactics of bigotry.
Disclaimer: The events in this post are fictional, however the name of the ASU tennis facility is not. I have never nor anticipate ever to contact the Rev. Al Sharpton.

It started with one...


Dear Driver,

Please, please, please seek counseling. It has gone on long enough. I understand that it may have started with a support the local police bumper sticker, but you've lost control. Bill Clinton can no longer run for president. Jim Pederson lost the election. Abortion has been legal for some time now. Although you may really like to eat at Carl's Jr., do you really need to advertise for them without any chance for compensation? Could you drive a little further away from the sidewalk... you're scaring me. We get it, you think you are smarter than Bush. 20 bumper stickers tell me otherwise. We are concerned and hope that you will receive the proper medications and mental adjustments that will help you to someday resolve the addiction you promote on the backside of your minivan. You can do this. It may take a new back door, but you can do this.

Love,
A Concerned Friend

Walmart... A special treat

A trip to Wal*mart is always an experience. I guess you could say that about everything. I decided to take advantage of their well priced 15 point lube express even though I should have figured it out by now that they don't check all the fluids they say. I went in with below minimum power steering fluid and left with below minimum power steering fluid. Somehow the receipt says they checked the power steering fluid and that it was good. That is the second time that same situation (different fluids) happened. One time Walmart even lost my truck key. I made them copy my spare. All three incidents happened at different Walmarts. Needless to say, I won't be going back to their cheap horrible service that come with long waits. However it was during this long wait that I met the man in the above picture. He comes in, sits down next to me and asks me if my hands hurt. I said, "no." He then said, "Well they should. They have nails in them." Of course I laughed...it was pretty funny. Once I gave him one laugh he had to try for the second. He said he did a great impression of a duck and wanted to know if I wanted him to do it. I confirmed that I did and then he stood up and put his hand close to his nose and ducked his head below it. He then sat down and said, "You expected me to go quack quack." It's true I did expect that.

Did she die strands of her hair blue or are those blue weaves? Does anyone under the age of 70 actually think blue hair is attractive? Frankly, this mystifies me.
