Many people in America what something for
nothing. For that matter, so do people
everywhere else on the planet. But,
people will blow ten bucks to save a dime.
When I was asked out for a “free lunch,” I had to pay the bar tab. Cereal grains are more expensive than
burgers.
In America ,
what was once poison is today’s miracle cure.
When alcohol was illegal, marijuana, as a medicinal product proscribed
by doctors was legal. Now, alcohol is
legal and marijuana is not. Stop, I have
a headache; gonna grab a can of Sterno.
Currently in America ,
the push is on to teach abstinence in schools.
But, the birth rate among minors still is up there. Do you think the quest for the hokie pokie
has been answered? Some municipalities
have passed laws that make holding hands illegal. According to these “statutes,” holding hands
is precursor to sexual intercourse. This
is absurd; not every young girl who holds hands with a boy wants to have
sex. In America , Aids and other venereal
diseases are looked at by the god fearing as a person’s base and vile
behavior. The person who picked up that
stuff did not ask for it; so shame on you for not using your head. Here we go:
an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Old yes, but still relevant in our time. When you blow up the bridge, swimming against
the stream to get to the other side is tough.
And there are no life boats in the water and the life preserver given is
useless. Education becomes knowledge and
knowledge is power – always. But what do
I know? All I know is what I read on the
Internet.
In America ,
the class system is well in place. In
one class, if you vomit because you ate and drank too much it’s considered bad
form. In the other class it’s an excuse
to eat and drink more. They can afford
it and they can get away with it. In America , a guy
who steals bread, milk, and eggs for his kids goes to jail. Politicians and investment bankers retire in
style. In America , we arrest and prosecute
drug dealers; that is the right thing to do.
Doctors proscribe drugs that kill people; the root cause of the “why”
often is discarded. Those guys are
concerned with “effect.” Or, is it the
pharmaceutical companies?
In America ,
a person can do everything right and still become the goat, ready for
sacrifice. Every step you took was for
others but one misstep, you becoming the bad guy is automatic. And that mistake had nothing to do with those
others who depended on your every step.
Too bad goat, now you are an asshole.
Only in America
will your kids disown you for not buying them the latest I-Pod, video games,
and computer. Forget about all the food,
clothing, shelter and the big one…..love.
Not everyone can be related to Steve Jobs or Bill Gates.
In America ,
true talent and effort are kicked to the curb by money. What ever is hot and delights simple minds at
the moment and will for the foreseeable, future is king – because it
sells. Even if it is king shit. The spin doctors will make sure that you will
like it.
In America ,
the media spinners have made hunters out to be gun crazed zealots who walk the
forests just looking for an excuse to shoot at something. That is nonsense. Real hunters are true conservationists. Many hunters work hard to preserve what’s
left of our natural environmental beauty.
These folks are following in the foot steps of Teddy Roosevelt. He talked softly, carried a big stick, and
had the balls to use that stick. Teddy
was one hell of a hunter and created our national park system. Where fore art thou Teddy?
In America ,
people spend too much time using social media.
If you need a therapist, find a real professional. Are you looking for “friends and
family?” What’s wrong with your flesh
and blood family and real friends? Do
they have B.O. or something else that your virtual friends say they do not
have? Like reality? A recent survey in America was shocking. The majority of women between the ages of 18
through 40 preferred to be “on-line” than having sex. Well, maybe those women never had really
great sex or they are using dildos in their on-line chats. You do not have to kiss a dildo good night or
make it breakfast in the morning. But
all I know is what I read on the Internet.
