Borders, Language, Culture

Found at the Warriors for Truth website:

IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT.

If you don't agree with this for fear of offending someone....You are part of the problem!

Will we still be the Country of choice and still be America if we continue to make the changes forced on us by the people from other countries that came to live in America because it is the Country of Choice?

We celebrate Christmas....but because it isn't celebrated by everyone.....we can no longer say Merry Christmas. Now it has to be Season's Greetings. It's not Christmas vacation, it's Winter Break. We've gone so far and bent over backwards to not offend anyone, that we are now being offended.

This is an editorial written by an American citizen, published in a Florida Newspaper.
IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Americans. However... the dust from the attacks had
barely settled when the "politically correct!" crowd began complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others.

I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to America.
Our population is almost entirely made up of descendants of immigrants. However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.

This idea of America being a multicultural community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity.
As Americans we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle. This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.

We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!

"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan.. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women....on Christian principles....founded this nation... and this is clearly documented.
It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home...because God is part of our culture.

If Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care how you did things where you came from. This is OUR COUNTRY, our land, and our lifestyle. Our First Amendment gives every citizen the right to express his opinion and we will allow you every opportunity to do so! But once you are done complaining, whining and griping about our flag... our pledge... our national motto...or our way of life....I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other Great American Freedom......THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.

It is Time for America to Speak up If you agree -- pass this along.
If you don't agree -- delete it - You are in the WRONG Country! AMEN
I suggest you forward this message to all your friends and family.  Let the world know that America will not go quietly into the night!

Gen. Jones tells a very funny joke!


Not the least bit offensive, this joke that the general tells. Jews
are known to be financially well-off and the Taliban is known to be
ignorant and crazy. This joke portrays the characters as they really
are and that is why they cry foul! Keep the jokes coming, General
Jones!

Article sent from mynorthwest.com

I think that Ms. Norris has the right idea and I will proudly participate. Mohammed is not a sacred cow and I would be darn happy to receive a death threat from some ugly Muslim idiots. If I receive one, I will scan and post immediatly. Being un-PC is all me. http://www.mynorthwest.com/?nid=11&sid=313170

Try a new site

I have just used a new site that I heard Leo Laporte and Amber MacArthur talk about on their show, Net@Night.  The site is Hunch.com and it is a recommendation engine unlike any other out there.  I searched on Geocaching, a sport I would like to get more involved in, and up popped several questions that helped me refine what I was thinking about.  You don't need an account to use the site, but it helps to keep track of what you previously searched for and to better refine your results.  Hunch.com was created by Caterina Fake of Flickr.com fame.

It's actually quite fun and I highly recommend that you use it.  

All the best!

Don't chip me!

I am glad that Georgia and other states have taken up this issue. Would be great to see all fifty states enact similar bans. http://amplify.com/u/55hg

My visit to my doctor

I visited my doctor today to talk about my sleepiness and my burping. I am tired most of the time and that is due to stress and my darn work schedule. My burping, though, is natural (like I always suspected) and cannot be cured. Also, had to get more blood pulled outta my arm. Five various sized vials! Wow! It was weird seeing the blood fill the vials.
That is all for now.

Vector Marketing Proposed Class Action

I received this curious letter yesterday and would like to make you all aware of it.  

For a few months, over the course of a couple of years, I was involved in selling the highest-quality knives through the Vector Marketing Corporation.  The knives were of course Cutco, the same brand that you can see being given away to contestants on The Price is Right at least once a week.  I was unsure of their sales tactics and did offer some suggestions to the office management, but they would not listen to me cause I was just one of their lowly "Sales Representatives" and had no real power.  I have always wondered if I shouldn't have been paid for my travel expenses and the purchasing of the demonstration set and thus when this letter arrived, I got giddy and I hope that this class-action happens and that Vector is sued into oblivion!  

If you or anyone you know was involved with Vector at any time in the past, please contact this law firm.  We need to kill Vector Marketing!  

Again, let me be clear, I love my Cutco knives and have never had any complaints about the product, it is only the marketing arm of Alcor that this lawsuit is aimed at.  Eliminate Vector, and the world will be a safer place for all college students.

Take a look at this receipt

Last evening, while on-duty as a security officer, I visited the Nestle Cafe, purchased two chocolate chip cookies (very warm and delicious) and a hot chocolate (with whipped cream) and the total for those three items was $6.66!  I made a joke of it and the cashier laughed with me.  The proprietor, Dan, was nearby and suggested I buy a third cookie.  I did not as this number doesn't faze me.  Why should it?  It is just another number after all.  

This was the most interesting thing to occur to me yet as I work this eight-hour shift every Friday.  Alright, I have had the two fights recently, but those aren't interesting, just another problem to be solved rather.  This number popping up out of the blue like this is interesting.  I gave it no heed the remainder of my shift and nothing bad happened, therefore the number has no bearing on life in general.  Just my thought on this interesting item.

Now, go have a great day!

Don't Tread on me!

I have added a car magnet to my vehicle. The Gadsden and Culpeper flag is iconic and indicative of our nation's peril. We must stand and fight those who wish our country harm! The time to take up arms and engage the enemy is nigh! Be prepared to defend your territory, as that is your last hope for awesome resistance. To arms, to arms, I say unto all of you!
