Questions From A Curious Mind

Question-8-ball

I’m not insane enough (yet?), to answer when I ask myself a question. These questions I have are not ones you can get answers for on Google. Maybe YOU could help me.  If you’re not afraid to be seen here, and would work for free pro-bono.

Before anyone volunteers (rrrrighttt!), I should give you a few examples of the crap my mind wonders about, while I go about my day:

  • If you gave your blog URL to your therapist, would it help him diagnose you?
  • Why does the IRS expect you to pay taxes after you die? This has apparently been going on for a while, so we can’t blame Obama for this. But just who in the Hell thought this was a good idea?
  • Why aren’t Honey-Boo-Boo’s parents in jail?
  • Which shades of green yarn make cuter crocheted frogs?  Should I  use all shades to convey diversity, or does PC only apply to people?
  • Did Jewel write her song, Foolish Games, about Jean-Claude Van Damme?
  • Speaking of, I sure would love to be able to do spin-kicks like that. No matter how many times I watch his movies, I can’t get the move down. I sure like watching him do them. (no question here – my mind just veers off on its own)
  • What happened to dancing to The Macarena at wedding receptions? I could do that one.
  • Do all men blow their nose in the shower?
  • What was I thinking when I gave my blog address to my kids?

And so on, and so forth.

This Could Be News….

WHITE GUYS DEMAND EQUAL RIGHTS

In the United States people of every culture, race, religious affiliation, and sexual orientation, have the right to be proud and celebrate their heritage. Except for the white guys.

Flag Superimposed over Gravestones

While white women  belong to a recognized group (women), white men are completely ignored. There are no weeks or months reserved for White History.  What about Caucasian Heritage Month?  Google that and you get listing after listing of all the American Heritage Months, but with qualifiers like Black, Asian, Polish, Jewish, et. al. – everybody except Caucasians. 

Caucasian  middle-class, heterosexual men are fed up with being treated like unwanted step-children.  “Why does this country bend over backwards for any group that isn’t white?” asks Bill Painter, a successful electrician in Silicon Valley. ” Our government is so concerned about catering to every non-white ethnic group, and not offending anyone, that us white folks have become invisible. ”

The members of White Americans have put together a new Bill with the same name and are trying to find congressional support to propose the Bill to the Senate. Bob Painter has not gotten any local support, so his group will start branching out to other states. “No one in California has the balls to take this on,” Bob said. “And that’s a damn shame.”

Petitions are circulating and rapidly gathering signatures supporting the White Americans Bill. Later this month the White Americans will travel to the mid-western states where they plan to circulate petitions and meet with local government to present their case. White Americans have supporters that have staged low-key protest marches. They carry signs and chant slogans like “White doesn’t mean KKK”, and “We are not the bad guys”.
