They Can Take Your House, and Mine?

(stoldid from Practically Harmless, who stoldid it from Martians Attacking Indianapolis)

I've read a few posts in the blog world, about the Kelo vs. the city of New London case, how the Connecticut supreme court has ruled in favor of immonent domain. This is where a city can take someones property (land) if it is for a benefit to the community, as long as the holder is rightly compensated. This is typically done in slums, where the area greatly needs a change. In this case however, the neighborhood is not a slum. It isn't a paradise of fine homes by any means, but a modest community. This communities homes are going to taken by the local government, and sold to developers, so that the area can be built on by businesses, which will create larger tax revenues for the city.

As always, there is a special little twist that comes out of such great ideas. Another community is going to use the same ruling as a reason for selling a few peoples homes out from under them, to private business. One of those homes belongs to one of the Justices who voted for the ruling. So by his own decision, Justice David H. Souter may very well be homeless. Congratulations for the self eviction Davey boy!!!

That Octogon Shaped Red Sign

Yesterday I was driving to a friend of mine's house to go swimming. The weather out here the past week has been in the mid nineties and humid (I think that translates to 36 celcius). The pool water was 90 degrees yesterday I might add. Warm bath water, oh yes.

During my trip out, I approached a sign at the side of the road. I slowed down. This sign, was red, and in the shape of an octogon. I then read the letters on the sign. S-T-O-P. Hmmm... this must be some sort of traffic regulating sign. So, I did what it said, I applied my brakes and began to stop my car.

This is when I heard a big ass Jeep Grand Cherokee behind me honking its horn. I look in my rear view mirror, to try to comprehend why they are beeping at me. I then stopped, paused for a second as I was confused to why they were beeping, and took off since I couldn't figure out why.

I then kept driving, and approached yet ANOTHER stop sign. I began to slow... and they started beeping again. I clearly hadn't even stopped yet, at a busy 4 way stop intersection, and they were beeping AGAIN.

I kept going about my merry way, as the beep happy Jeep turned. When I arrived, I walked around my car, to see if anything out of the ordinary was up, like a human arm hanging out of my trunk, a dog on a leesh tied up to the back... something. Not a damn thing wrong.

So, the person who was horn honk happy, just wanted me to not stop. By beeping, they made me stop LONGER trying to figure out why the fuck they were on their horn like it was going to cause world peace and find a cure for cancer.

I really wish I would have pulled into the gas station they turned into, gotton out of my car, and beaten them and/or their gas guzzling SUV to itty bitty pieces with some sort of large, blunt, metal object, like a tire iron.

Too bad I'm a hippy, and detest violence.

Make a Wish, WENCH!!!

We all know of my love of mass forwards. I got yet another stupid one today, let me share it with you.
Hi, my name is Amy Bruce. I am 7 years old, and I have a
large tumor on my brain and severe lung cancer. The doctors say I will
die soon if this isn't fixed, and my family can't pay the bills. "The
Make A Wish Foundation" has agreed to donate 7 cents for every time this
message is sent on. For those of you who send this along, I thank you
so much. But for those who don't send it, I will still pray for you.
Please, if you are a kind person, have a heart. Please, please,
PLEASE
HIT THE FORWARD BUTTON.
First off, the make a wish foundation doesn't donate money, it receives it. Plus, last time I checked, they do things like, have some celebrity show up at the kids bed, or sends them to disney world. They don't pay medical bills.

Plus, how the hell do they know if I forwarded the shit or not? There's no hidden underlying code on this thing... there can't be. I took it from a plain text (can't even do pics) e-mail thing.

One day, people will stop being so fucking stupid.

Cartoons For... Whoever?

New College University episode 10 - I'm an addict of the series, although this isn't one of the better episodes by far.

Open Mic Night 2 - Germaine, the Pizza delivery guy, and Pillz-E recite poetry.

Teen Girl Squad 9 - Strongbads amazingly craptacular comic.

Mr. Stabby 4 - Mr. Stabby is at it again, this time working as a body art master.

Hey Demon - Felt the need to include it, because it came from weebls-stuff

Hum Along With Herman

  • Sins of the Flesh by Sister Machine Gun
    • The greatest industrial rock band to not get plastered all over the radio in the mid-nineties... ummm... second.... KMFDM is first. Their early stuff (Sins of the Flesh, the Torture Technique) was deemed as being NIN rip offs, although both bands had been around, NIN and Trent just hit radio first. Every subsequent album has been different. Heavy usage of Saxophone on some songs, some songs seeming more appropriate for techno than industrial rock, with Chris Randalls vocals not even being a link, as sometimes he screams, and sometimes he sounds like he could be in depeche mode.
  • Mechanical Animals by Marilyn Manson
    • Manson... We all know of him. My first impression was "guy who paints himself up to shock people, the music can't be good." Heard sweet dreams, but it was before I was a covers of songs freak. Passed on the disc. The Beautiful People came out. I passed. Still not a fan of that song. I then heard some old Manson, and the Mechanical Animals CD came out. I was hooked. I figured out, finally, that there was some good music behind the gimmick.
  • Rappers Delight by the Sugarhill Gang
    • Now, if you wanna talk about old school, how about a 15 minute hip hop song, done to a disco beat?
  • Buckwheats Beat by Spider D
    • This one a rare person will remember. This is OLD SCHOOL. This was in the fledgling time of hip hop and rap. A lot of songs found a gimmick. Impersonate someone, and rap over a beat. This one is Buckwheat. (There is another song out there, that is John Wayne rapping.)
  • Need To by Korn
    • Korn... I miss the old days. I remember listening to Q101 when I was 18 years old (94/95), driving home one night. The DJ (Zoltron (?), the brother from another planet) would play unknown bands, and a LOT of industrial. This is when I heard "Blind." I was at Heguish records the next day, scouring through cd's till I finally found the disc. Six months later... shoots and ladders hits the radio. I was distraught. My unknown band made it big on a gimmicky song.
  • Dead and Bloated by Stone Temple Pilots
    • First song I ever heard by STP. I didn't listen to rock radio much. This was a period where I was transitioning from r&b and rap as my mainstays, to rock, as I wasn't big on the Glam rock scene. I borrowed an STP tape, took it home, made a "high speed tape dub" cuz my brother had a dual deck boombox. I then listened to STP for the first time, and was hooked. A few months later, I saw them a the Aragon Ballroom playing BEFORE the Butthole surfers, who had yet to record their one hit wonder song.
  • I Gotta Get Drunk by George Jones and Willie Nelson
    • Old school country. Happy upbeat song about getting drunk, doing stupid stuff, and beer goggles.
  • Pudding Time - Thieves by Primus
    • Live Primus performance I downloaded from the official primus website. They do an interesting medly of their own song, Pudding time, with Thieves by Ministry. I wish more bands followed Primus's lead, and threw some free downloads of live stuff on their sites. Might not make em money, but it keeps some die hard fans happy and loving the band that much more.... and wishing they could see a live show again.
  • I Do Not Want This by NIN
    • Trent is a musical genius. Plus the man does things right. NIN cd's are many years in between. Shows a lot of work and craft goes into their discs. I did have a brief anti-NIN spree, after closer. I was never a big fan of that song. Probably because I had a few too many preppy, non rock listening friends that were on Trents cock over that song. The same people that asked me to change the music when I had "march of the pigs" on, were buying the disc.
  • Rose by A Perfect Circle
    • Maynard is one of my top three vocalists EVER. He's shown his range of vocals and style between APC and tool. The only two people I put at the man's level are Layne Staley (Alice In Chains, Mad Season) and Chris Cornell (Soundgarden, Audioslave, Temple of the Dog). Can ya tell I'm a child of the Grunge era now?

FIRE!!! FIRE!!! FIRE!!!

Well, another favorite proposed constitutional ammendment is making its rounds. Its the flag burning one. Yeah, they wanna make it illegal to burn the flag, by a constitutional ammendment. A lot of folks are in uproars about this one. I personally don't give a rats ass.

I have no plans on burning the flag. Our rulers, and a lot of people in this country piss me off, but burning the flag don't do shit to fix things. Make it legal or illegal, it don't effect me any. To some its unpatriotic to burn it. To some making it illegal is a violation of freedom of speech.

My issue with the flag burning ammendment is different. A worn or tattered flag, in order to be disposed of properly, should be burned. Yes. The official US flag rules involve burning as the proper way to dispose of it. So, disposing of it properly would be illegal. So, you put a clause in it that if the burning is intended to be desicration, or disposal, right?

One problem. LOOP HOLE. "I was disposing of it, because it was torn, by burning it during the presidents visit." Whoever gets arrested because they burned the thing, has an out.

Plus, last time I checked, its the Bill of RIGHTS, not the Bill of WRONGS. When you try to make something illegal on it, it backfires. Look at prohibition. The document is about saying we have the RIGHT to vote. The RIGHT to due process. The RIGHT to bear arms. The RIGHT to free speech. The RIGHT to assembly. Not the WRONG. Not the "you can't do this."

Get the shit straight. If something is a limitation to what a person can do, place it as a law. Don't say I can't do something on a document that is listing the things I have the RIGHT to do.

Wanna Fight Old Man?

A 73 year old Kenyan man was tending to his fields. Usual stuff, taking care of his potato and bean crops. That's when the unexpected happened... A leapord (and not Def Lepard) charged from the grass and pounced on him. So, the old man dropped his machete, plunged his hand in the leapard's mouth, and ripped out its tongue. Old man is alive, one dead mother fuckin' leapard. Seems like the kind of guy you would want on your side in the big bar brawl at the VFW.

I'm waiting for PETA to protest the killing of a leapard, that he should have reasoned with it.

Get Your Own Pet Saddam!!!

Every kid wants a new toy, or a pet. Some kids are reasonable, and want a dog, cat, or hamster. Others ask for bigger things, like ponies and dinosaurs. What do you get for the kid who has everything? Their very own deposed dictator: Saddam Hussein.

There is a lot of responsibilty in having your very own ousted Iraqi dictator. Its important to feed your dictator. Saddam likes to have Raisin Bran Crunch for breakfest in the morning. He does not like fruit loops though. For lunch and dinner, Saddam likes fish or chicken. He will refuse to eat beef. If Saddam wants a snack, give him a family sized bag of Doritos. He can eat an entire bag in 10 minutes!!! He also likes Cheetos.

Saddam also needs to be kept clean. You can do this by having him shower twice a week. Give him a good supply of baby wipes, as he uses these daily to keep his hands, plates, and utencils clean. Saddam is happiest when he is clean. He also likes to do his own laundry. Make sure he has a copy of the Quran too, as he likes to pray 5 times a day.

Your pet Saddam is also a lot of fun. Saddam will talk to you in english about former and current US Presidents, and give fatherly advice on things like marriage. Saddam will tell you to marry a wife who is smart but not too smart, who can cook and clean. He'll then make a notion of spanking her. He will also tell you he is still the President of Iraq. Oh you crazy Saddam!!!

So kids, supplies are limited, so make sure you tell your parents that you want your very own Saddam. If your lucky, you just might have one under the tree next Christmas!!!

Hypocrite: A Definition

Two members of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) were arrested for 31 felony counts of animal cruelty. They were picking up animals from shelters that were going to be euthenized, and supposedly going to find them homes, or euthenize them differently.

People kept finding dumpsters full of dead animals in the area. Police then staked out some of them, and found two members of PETA with a bunch of dead critters in the back of a van, dumping the bodies. Thats really ethical.

What I don't get, is that PETA thinks it's more ethical to euthenize by lethal injection, than by gassing the critters. So, as a small minded critter, would you rather be put in a room, feel sleepy and pass out, or have someone stab you with a big ass needle, and pass out?

Lets look at this another way: Dr. Kevorkian of assisted suicide fame, used carbon monoxcide gas to help people off themselves. We execute criminals by lethal injection.

Friday Ten

  • Floods by Pantera
    • "A dead issue. Don't wrestle with them. Deaf ears are sleeping..." The slow Pantera song. Not a common occurance, but this one is one of my faves. I miss this band.
  • Atlanta by Stone Temple Pilots
    • Yet another mellow track. This is one of their best unknown tracks.
  • Over Now by Alice In Chains
    • Simply the best band to come out of Seattle in the early nineties. Not many bands could pull off musically what they were able to make seem simple. They could make a track that would be too "loud" for some people, then turn around and write a mellow, laid back song. Yet another band I miss.
  • Blues Music by G. Love and Special Sauce
    • Who is G. Love some may ask? Just a damn fine musician. Not quite the ordinary sound. His style blends hip hop, blues, and acoustic guitar rock. Definately an original. Oh, and without him, there would be no Jack Johnson. G. Love discovered him while surfing.
  • Doesn't Remind Me by Audioslave
    • My favorite song off the new disc. I listen to it almost too much. Great lyrically, and has one of the best Tom Morello guitar solo's I've come across. "Things that I've had, things that I've lost. Things I've held sacred, that I've dropped. I won't mind no more you can bet, don't wanna learn what I need... to forget."
  • Hidden Place by Bjork
    • Don't really know this track. Bjork is one of those musicians I love in small doses. It's a nice change up from most of my other music.
  • Missing You by Todd Snider
    • Todd is one of my favorite singer/songwriters. He's basically folk rock/country/rock. Hard to really catagorize. He'll write songs that will make you laugh hysterically. He'll also write songs that will make you cry. This is a cry song.
  • Freedom by Rage Against the Machine
    • YET another band I miss. Sure I still get to hear Tom Morello jam in Audioslave, but I don't get any more Zach. Also sometimes Tom's guitar work doesn't quite fit with Chris Cornells vocals. Luckily I still have amazing tracks like this one to listen to.
  • Help! by the Beatles
    • I like the Beatles later work. When they started hitting the drugs. I know some people will want to hang me for this, but I don't think the Beatles are as great as some people make them out to be. Excellent band and all, but there are several others I would rate higher.
  • Who's Gonna Be Your Sweet Man When I'm Gone by Muddy Waters
    • More of my "something different" music. Love the blues, but it takes a certain mood... Lately my mood has been mellow and the blues. And if you're gonna listen to the blues, make sure its a blues legend.

June 16, 2005

Now THAT is What I Call BLING!!!

I'm not the type to share crappy camera phone pictures. I'm also not one to make fun of other's sense of style, since I myself am far from being stylish. I'm about as stylish as a scratched Glenn Campbell record.

While exiting Best Buy, I saw a car unlike any other. It was a Chevy Caprice Classic or a Ford Crown Vic. You know the car, the one that every cop was driving for thousands of years. The one that the only people who buy it are over 70. Whenever one is behind you, you think it's a cop, so you slow down and do the speed limit, only to find out it is an old woman with a beehive haircut that can't see over the steering wheel.

Not only is it a pig car wanna-be, but a LIGHT BLUE one at that. This has to be one of the ugliest cars in the world. Its had some, modifications too. So, lo and behold, the crappy camera phone pics of this car.



Normally, I would point out the new hood, poke fun at buying that for the car, and moving on, but look at those rims. 24 inch chrome rims on the thing. These things are the size for a Navigator or an H2. HUGE fucking rims. The car is literally 6 inches higher off the ground than normal, because they shoved these way oversized rims on the car. Its like a fucking 4x4. Your supposed to go lower man. Not jack up the fucking car.



Here you can see the added height a little bit better. I don't get this shit. Why would you put $10,000+ rims, on a car that is worth $6000? An UGLY car at that. If it was a true classic car, that was restored ok, but not a shitty car from the nineties that is reknowned for being a COP CAR!!!

I don't know what is worse, this car, or the 95 Pontiac Grand Am I drove past that had switches. Front and back, side to side I might add. Car hopped nice and all... but a Grand AM? I'll never understand some folks.

Thick Girls Live Longer

In my regular updates against the evils of waif women, and the benefits of thick girls, I have found yet another. A medical study that has been going on since 1987 found that women with a hip measurement of 40 had a lower chance of heart disease than nasty waif women who have no hips. This was true for wide hips, but big guts were bad for women's health.

So women, if your waist is small and your curves are kickin'...

Et Tu Foo Fighters?

My dilemma from last week happened again, thanks to the Foo Fighters releasing a double disc, that happened to come with a free download of a "never before released song" just like the Coldplay disc from the week before.

Only thing is, the Foo Fighters tried to up the ante. Not only did they do the evil WMA download, they also did that lame thing called "copywrite protecting" the CD. Oh no, what is a boy to do?

This boy happens to hold down his shift key, which disables autoplay on any windows PC. In other words, the itty bitty program that protects the CD never gets run. So, I can put the CD on my hard drive as an mp3, not copy protected wma. This means I can listen to the song using the software of MY choice, not THEIR choice.

Its my music. I should be able to listen to it how I want to. I shouldn't be forced to use shitty microsoft media player. I shouldn't have to spend money, so that I can listen to music that I already paid for, so I can listen to it in these other programs.

Fuck you Bill Gates. You have enough fucking money. I'm not out buying a slow ass Mac, that I can't tweak like a PC. I'm not a big enough geek to run Linux. I have your windows as an operating system. Stop trying to make me use the microsoft brand enema. Fucker.

Use the Litterbox Kitty

A house fire was sparked as a families pet kittens were using the fax machine as their litterbox. They relieved themselves on it so much, it sparked, and started a fire. The fire destroyed a large portion of the kitchen and living room. Luckily the kitties ran to safety.

The writer of the article suggests making sure your pets know where to go to the bathroom. They want people to sit down, and talk to their pet doggies and kitties. Tell them when they have to tinkle to do it in the litterbox or outside, and not to pee on electrical equipment. We all know pets are great at listening to a lecture.

Of course since my cat is deaf, I have to hire someone to use sign language to speak to her. Never thought pet ownership would be that expensive.

Bible Belt Values

As we "Yanks" are constantly reminded, we need to change our value structure. In yet another news story, we find out what those values are. This example comes from the lovely state of Mississippi.

Some parents grounded their son because he came home late. He wasn't allowed to drive the car. Later, the parents came home with "Sno-Balls." Just two, one for each of them. The son got mad. He took Pa's gun and shot and killed him. He then threatened Ma, and took off on a high speed chase with police through 3 counties.

Established moral truths. Right to bear arms. Traditional family.

White People Are Going to Burn Down Santa Barbara

In a moment of insanity, Michael Jackson was found to be not guilty of playing with a little white boy's tallywacker.

Now, comes the backlash. Millions of rich white folks are going to run around the streets of Santa Barbara, and flip over every single BMW, Porshe, Mercedes, Jaguar, and Bentley they can. They will burn and pillage the polo club in protest of the verdict.

No one is safe.

Random 10 Tracks

  • Suspicious Minds by Elvis Presley
    • Elvis is a musical god. I wish I would have realized it well before I did. For some reason I thought he was old people music for a while. I just had to get past some of the more overplayed songs.
  • In My Place by Coldplay
    • The first time I heard Coldplay, I hated them. I kept singing "and the snow was all yellow." Then a friend got me to listen to a couple other songs, and I was hooked. Incredible band.
  • Shadrach (live) by The Beastie Boys
    • Even though they have fallen off big time after the last CD (which I didn't even buy after the three songs I heard off of it), I still enjoy some of their old stuff, and large amounts of different versions of songs. This is one of the versions I got off the DVD Anthology. DVD player to line in on comp, and a few days, and you have TONS of remixes of songs.
  • Monkey Wrench by The Foo Fighters
    • Too many people from my generation have been on Kurt Cobains jock. The man was talented, but the real talent in the group was Dave Grohl. His music has a lot more depth than anything Nirvana ever put out. He also has a much better voice. If Kurt wouldn't have taken his life, he'd not be remembered the way he is. One word, Martyrdom.
  • South Texas Deathride by The Union Underground
    • The greates rock band destroyed by the WWE. Love their one and only CD that came out in 2000. Absolutely amazing metal band, that had a unique sound. They were producing songs unlike the other stuff that was out there. Then they recorded what is now the theme song to WWE Raw. Band has since broke up. *sigh*
  • Gone Away by Cold
    • One of the few standout songs by Cold. Their that rock band that can't seem to put out many memorable fast paced songs, but their ballads will make them onto some nineties "Power Ballads" CD.
  • GhettoMusick by Outkast
    • I remember when I got hooked on Outkast. Heard a rock remix of Bombs Over Baghdad. The day this CD came out, I was buying it. Been totally hooked ever since.
  • Xmas Day by Sevendust
    • They started off as being this really heavy metal band. As the group aged and progressed, they started writing more ballads. This song is one of them. Lyrically and musically one of the best rock/metal bands of our time.
  • Forgiven by Ben Harper
    • This man is a musical prodigy. Folk, funk, rock, reggae... he does it all.
  • Whamola by Colonol Les Claypools Fearless Flying Frog Brigade
    • Les Claypool is the Frank Zappa of our time. Amazing musician, who just floats around working with other great musicians since he basically got bored and felt limited with Primus. This song is just a great, but nasty, instrumental.

Coldplay X&Y, the Evil Corporate Demons Best Buy & Napster, and Windows Media Player

In a move that is not considered "normal" to a metalhead, I purchased the new Coldplay CD yesterday, as I am one of the many fans of their music.

I do most of my CD shopping at Best Buy since out of the cheap places, they have the best selection. Shopping there, you must avoid the goons as they ask you every 35 seconds if you need help finding anything. Luckily, since I's dun gradjuated the 3rd grade, I know how alphabetical order works. One day I will have to ask if they have the Lollipop Lust Kill CD, and see the goon hobble over to the L's in the rock section, and see it is not between Lindsey Lohan and Loverboy.

Lo and behold, there is a little piece of cardboard in the case, with a code for a free download of a song not available on the disc. All one must do is download it from the Satan's cousin's site, Napster. So, I do it. I re-install the Napster software. I download the track after entering my registration code.

The damn file is .wma. "Copy Protected" .wma at that. The programs I use, iTunes and Musicmatch, can't convert it to .mp3, or even play it for that matter. The song will only play using windows media player. I like to listen to music using iTunes. Its a better program for random listening at the comp. I like burning music with Musicmatch, it makes the best discs.

What is a boy to do? Simple. Burn the track onto a CD using Lucifer's program Window's Media Player. Rip the track from burned CD onto my hard drive, using the program of my choice, as an mp3. Now, I can listen to the song, and burn it, with the programs I like to use.

So, my "free" song cost me 15 minutes of my time, and one blank CD-R (ARV $0.20US). The feeling of saying fuck you to the evil corporate idiots who think putting something as a copy protected file that won't play in all programs though, is priceless.

So, here is my shout out, once again. Fuck you Best Buy. Fuck you Napster. Fuck you at Microsoft who believe in .wma's and try to force people to use Windows Media Player.

Jesus Killed by a Blood Clot

Upon advancements in medical theory, doctors now believe that Christ died from a bloodclot. It is believed the bloodclot reached his lungs 3-6 hours after Crusifiction began.

So, the coronor would have said, "died by a bloodclot" instead of "died from crusifiction?"

Why is it the things that people put papers out on, and research, get dumber and dumber by the day. Next thing you know, they are gonna say Kennedy died from diahrea, and not his brains being removed from his skull by a bullet.

Kerry as Dumb as Bush

When someone is right, you have to give them credit. Sen. John F. Kerry's transcripts were released from Yale. Apparantly his grades were just as mediocre as dubs, so both are just a couple of dumbshits. So, here is my apology to all the conservatives out there:

I'm sorry I thought Kerry actually had a little intelligence. Apparantly, he is just a dumb as our President.

I should have voted Nader. Happy now?

Is That Her Thighs Rubbing Together?

A woman was arrested in Australia trying to smuggle something into the country. She wore a big skirt, and had the items in a specially made apron. What was she smuggling? FISH!!! She had fish in bags of water up her skirt. I wonder if Senor Don Gato was the one that found em? He was fluffy white, and nice and fat.

We Didn't Mean For Our Ads To Be Taken Literally!!!

The Gillette razor that also doubles as a vibrator just lost a court battle against Schick. The Mach 3 Power has been found to not lift the hairs up before it cuts em. Gillette stated that its computer animation shouldn't have been taken literally.

So, if that is the case, then I shouldn't do evil things like assume its going to even shave anything? Shows that happening in the "not to be taken seriously" computer animation too. I guess all you're supposed to do with the razor is turn in on and stick it someplace to get off. Its well hidden as being a sex toy, looking like an ordinary razor and all.

I'm just worried that I'll find out before too long that Zest doesn't rinse off so I'm fully clean.

Happy Birthday Kitties

Not sure of the exact day, just know the month. My cat and my brothers cat turn 18 this month. Yes, they are sisters, born in June of 1987. Here is a quick look at the events of 1987...

  • Ronald Reagan is president of the US
  • Wall Street crashes sending the Dow Jones Industrial average down 22.6%
  • President Reagan and Soviet Leader Gorbachev sign an unprecedented missile reduction agreement
  • Televangelist Jim Bakker resigns amid accusations of sexual infidelity and financial impropriety
  • Gary Hart withdraws from the 1988 presidential campaign under accusations of infidelity

Alan Jackson Wants a Ford Truck or Two

I just love coming across all these little boycots on the web. 90% of them are false, and the remaining 10% you really can't do much about anyway. So, people read them, get all worked up, forward out the message to everyone they know, then go and buy from that company the next day.

Now there is a boycott against Ford and all its other auto manufacturers: Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Jaguar, Mazda, Volvo, and Land Rover. Why? Because they support the homosexual agenda.

Yup, the AFA (Assholes For Alzheimers) are starting a boycott since, according to their webpage, Ford has an excellent track record of not discriminating against people due to their sexuality. They also say that Ford donates money to GLAAD.

The fun thing is, they let you sign the petition on the web page. So I signed it as "Manwho Sucksmenoff." (boycott page link)

Might I add, I am now an even prouder owner of a Mazda. Mazda, who is in the Ford Motor corporation.

So listen to Alan Jackson, and buy yourself a Ford truck or two.
