Time to piss off the masses...again...

Well I felt that all this stuff with the trial of the century (and it's only a decade or so into it), that I will throw my 2.44 cents into this mess with this Casey Anthony Trail and the insane commentaries to go along with it.

Before we go farther, let me give you my sponsor and a disclaimer:

This is MY opinion, my views and if you going to go all insane and looney, need not real farther. And now my sponsor..





Thank you, my friends.

Now, first of all, I am not going to talk bout whether this person is guilty or innocent. That has been administered in a court of law. However, some of the fear-mongers and media-Nazis seem to just stir up so much public-opinion that they wish to use their social influence to gain some type of winning verdict and when they do not get that what they SO desperately want, go into a firestorm short of outright revolution.

First of all, unless I have left this country, we live in a country where all citizen are given a right to a fair trial but a jury of their peers; with a right of due process. And for those who do not know their U.S. government, that would be the 6th and 14th amendments respectively. However, there many people who would rather have a justice system where we are innocent til proven guilty would be guilty until proven innocent. Or just flat out say guilty without any sense of trial.

And the media-Nazi of HLN or I like to call it the House of Ludicrous News with their high priestess of fear-mongering propaganda Nancy Grace and the minister of over-reacting knee jerking blood-letting Jane Velez-Mitchell spent weeks just throwing their condemnations upon us saying: Oh she guilty! The jury will see it and my personal favorite: Justice will be done.

Verdict comes and in the words of Emeril:

Not Guilty. And what happens. OOOOOH! You would think that Pearl Harbor is bombed again and we are going to war.

The jury has said nope, the state did not prove beyond...REASONABLE DOUBT! She was guilty. And now justice was not done, she won't fry or what and now what happens. The media cults are saying oh the jury were not informed, they jury are fools, they don't know what they are doing. They have not been able to hear the public opinions of millions of people and the media....yadda yadda yadda...

Well there is a reason why they jury were sequestered and not given access to any media outlet. Because, the judge wanted to ensure a fair trial and not be persuaded by media brainwashing.

The burden of proof is always with the state to prove their point, and honestly, they dropped the ball. If there is no justice, it was the justice that the state did not put a case that was solid enough to convict. That is the miscarriage of justice. If it was not done beyond any doubt, well you would not be having this firestorm as we are. Ever consider that? Nope.

And now you hear about all the jurors receiving death threats. Judge being insulted and the likes and many of the folks on the Communist News Network (CNN) and the Hardcore Lunacy Network (HLN) are almost set to entice a riot. She goes back to jail for 1 week...7 days and all that time what you see on those channels. Oh a countdown and those quotes saying, "Tonight, the devil is dancing." Nope, the devil is trying to get this damn heat back to hell.

Many people are saying those networks went way overboard with this coverage and almost made it into a crusade and a personal vendetta to insult the justice system saying because they did not get what they want that the court system is bad, flawed and whatnot.

Look, justice is blind, and impartial. It does not have an agenda and can not be lead an ear to fear and social insanity. I think this is almost an reincarnation of McCarthyism all over again. And if you don't think for one second that now that this woman is out that there is not a few people who are going to want to have mob justice and brandish their own vigilante justice, think again. And you don't think that those folks like Nancy Grace and Jane Velez-Mitchell can speak a few choice words and not set a few people onto a course of bloody retribution? History has proven that has happened many times over. And of course they will never mention or speak of it because they will be held libel for it. But, noone will ever say they wouldn't cry wink if a lynch mob offs her and the jury on top of that. Mark my words, I give it a year and someone is going to do it. And call it justice. But then again, justice is nothing more than socialized revenge anyway.

And the big hypocrisy is everyone speaking bloody murder about how she shouldn't profit from anything with interviews or books or whatever. People yelling they will boycott any and everything if she makes a dime from this. But HELLO!! You think the networks are not making a killing from sponsors and commercials. Isn't that bloodmoney. Oh is that just the corporate monopoly that makes a profit from the media-terrorism they portray on a daily basis. Who is the hypocrite?

As stated, I can care less whether she is guilty or not. I am not the one to judge or condemn. That is to higher authority to do that. But in the court of man, she was acquitted. So all this justice was not done is nothing more than a cry for a do-over. Many were even screaming for re-trial. Sorry there can't be any of that because it violates the law in double jeopardy. And there is people even want to appeal the 7th amendment just to retry her. Now, I don't know where these idiots ever get this stupid notion. First of all, you will never and I mean NEVER have both houses of Congress to pass this bill. And no the President does not sign any Constitutional Amendments so before the Obama-bashers start yacking. The bill goes to the States for ratification: either by state assembly or by general election. And you will not get 3/4 of the states or 38 states for the mathematically challenged to ratify it within a specified time frame.
Ain't going to hap'n cap'n!

So in closing, I can speak for many Americans who is about fed up with all this constant reporting let's face nagging from the media. Ok she got off, she walked, let's move on people! Let's talk about the next media controversy. Or let's talk about how we need some rain in parts of the country. Or more importantly, how some people need to get a serious HAIRDO!!! Just saying.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

I'm such a threat...watch your women, men...

I just had to throw this out and say it. But, I just want to know how is it that when I have my female friends get into relationships (which now days seems to be the new thing to do), how is it that the male significant other always and I do mean ALWAYS seem to have such an issue with me. Most just get this idea to hunker down the relationship defenses and man the boyfriend cannons. The Vandals are heading for the gates and pillaging the hearts of your loves.

The whole thing is almost laughable but, I had dealt with all this ever since high school. A few men who have such a special fear out of me and for what?? Hell I wish I knew. I am not just some guy who have such a suave style to come up and snatch your woman. Hell I wish I had that ability. I'll be popping a few famous chicks and porn stars if I had that power. I just find it funny cause I lost friendships with some folks for the exact reason. Cause I'm a friend who just have such a down-to-earth heart and a good ear. I guess that makes me a threat or is it that cause these insecure men feel that if one has a penis, they are a threat. Well listen up morons, if you do right by your woman and keep her happy, she won't stray. Ever thought of that? The again, I known that a few women like a man that's jealous minded and stuff; because they like to know a man is jealous minded cause it shows their women they care. I never bought that outlandish bullshit before; I always believed you do what you do to keep ya woman happy nothing or noone would asunder the relationship. But, I guess that the notion is true. A person is only as faithful as the options available.

I do find it kind of sad that many friendships are lost cause of the jealous minded significant other has to lay down edicts saying: Nope you can't be friends with so and so for the one fact that they are the same gender as the "so-called" offender. I just find it hilarious if I had a few points to laugh at.

Nevertheless, let me leave a few points of advice for those insecure folks from BOTH genders: just cause you have fears don't make them a self-fulfilled prophecy by being a total jack-wagon. and number two...have faith in the relationship. UUUGH

just an update...

well for those who were wondering how things are, well this is the update. I got settled in at my temporary home. It's been a challenge for the most part - trying to decide where to put the essentials into a place that's about as small as a bedroom. However, it's been done.

Also, got registered for unemployment. Not that I want to do it but gotta survive til I get another gig . But, getting things all set up and registered is like trying to unscrew a virgin. Emotionally, I just been drained and physically just been exhausted. Not much on my mind but trying to survive this ordeal. If I didn't have any hair on my head, I would probably pull what I had in frustration. However, I will endure this as I have other things. Just really makes even a saint want to scream out a few potty words.

I know that things happen for a reason, but to be all honest, I don't know what the hell this is happening for or the lesson to learn from this. Well I know the one lesson that I always known. And this is some cynical wisdom for you all. "You are always a dollar away from being broke and a paycheck away from unemployment." Trust me folks that is real talk here.

In all this, I really been keeping to myself with all this. I honestly don't know why but honestly there isn't much anyone can say that I haven't heard already. Or not doing what many would suggest. So I'm sorry now if I just have not come to anyone with all this or my feelings. It's not personal. Just doubt there something to be done.

Alas now, I'm just catching on a few TV shows while on the grind to something new. Just a bit frustrating. Just now, need to get my mind off things and find some distraction....

Another Craptastic Monday

Well this has been a pretty craptastic day. I been dreading Monday all weekend. And when you try to dread things, the faster the time comes to your doorstep. This morning I get called into a meeting with about 90% of the department that I work with and get the news that I pretty much expected or foreseen. That I will pretty much be laid off come Friday. Yeah, how much a way to come into a place where there is enough tension you can cut it with a toothpick to hear what you did not want to hear (Or pretty much expect).

I can’t get into the specifics but I will say that some companies are stupid asses and I have little or no respect for any company that is so damn willing to outsource to foreign countries just to save a penny or 3. And then have the notion and nerve to say “American Made” gimme a few firebombs. But I know this is a nation for, of, and about the corporation. To hell with the people. The national language is not English or Spanish but Cashola. But, I wonder how can one company, who deals with workman’s comp can handle some type of business and handle cases in the Philippines for things in the states. First of all, you got to consider the HUGE time difference. So they going to be working at night to cover the day time business. I sure as hell ain’t going to be put my medical faith in nurses who are half-sleep. And let’s hope and PRAY they can actually talk English with some type of fluency. Some of the doctors I had interaction with can hardly understand or communicate with the natives without going insane. I sure as all hell don’t see how they going to be “convincing”. I wouldn’t drink the water; I don’t think I can trust the nurse.

Alas, now will be off work Friday, and I already been running my mind and instincts into “survival mode”. Must do what it takes to make it till something else comes along. But, I always believed that you a paycheck away from unemployment and a dollar away from broke. Seems those words have never been more true. Anyone needed some real talk there is some for you.

I can’t be mad at the employer for what’s going on. Nor would I say anything bad about them. If anything, just think there need to be a harder hustle to get more business. But, other than that, I can’t fault them for this. And I couldn’t have work with a better group of people. And honestly, I had the best bosses in the world and my heart goes out to them. Because, I know that this is not something to be done lightly or wanted to do. It’s the nature of business and survival – so I can understand that and they at least told us ahead of time what’s up and what will happen. Most companies would just throw this bomb on you when you least expect it and put all your days into a firestorm of crapola and anarchy. Yet, they kept it real and told us early. For that, I have the biggest amount of respect. And I know deep down this was a hard decision and I know that the needs of the company outweigh just any individual or group. I don't envy you or your task a bit. And thank you for being open, honest and human. I know it's not always about the profit and bottom line and having a heart and a sense of decency and integrity is more important. You all kick ass for that. *Some companies take note of this.....* Ass munch!

SO, now just have to take care of a few business matters in terms of my benefits and update the resume. That is always going to be a barrel of monkeys. Finding a job in the Metroplex that is worth it is about as finding a virgin in a brothel. Maybe I can bounce back up from this, if the ball don’t have tooo big a puncture wound. The hustle struggle shall continue but this does suck a big one.

I’m trying to find the silver lining in this hellish cloud – especially when there is lightning striking all over. And kind of sucks cause for the first time in ages, you find a place where you actually enjoy coming to work at. But, maybe there is hope there will be an upswing and the band can get back together. However, hope is something that I keep in very low supply and those who know my views about hope. But the one thing from all this is that I can actually SLEEP in some for a while. Now just need to win this damned lottery.

If you trust in a bridge of friendship...

make sure that it's not built out of cooked spaghetti. It will not hold much of anything. And will tear on the slightest strain. Over the last few months, I am beginning to see that many of those so-called friendships I had were not built on the strong foundations of bricks, more like play-dough. And not even the good kind, that stuff you have to add water to it to even make it work.

The worst thing about all these is the empty promises most give, I'm sure most of you all heard them. Any sound familiar?

No we will always be friends. Nothing can come between that.


If you need an ear, I'm willing to listen.


Whatever happens - you got me on your side.


BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!

As I wrote in another blog, friends forever has a very short shelf-life. Like fish, it goes bad after 3 days. Now, I'm seeing the truth of it more. How can so many people "claim" to be so real about themselves, promise to always be around regardless of whats up with them. (work, relationships,distance, etc.)Yet, when you hear from them (if you do at all) it's short, clipped, even forced.) Well far be it from me to make you actually WANT to carry on such a mundane endeavor or to waste your precious minutes out of your busy, exciting life.

I think that the worst part of all this is just how most people can be so nonchalant about severing whatever you had on a whim. And for many times the most asinine of reasons. I will spare the words simply cause I know about 99.33% of you heard them on numerous occasions. No need to beat a dead horse worse than your friendships right? Just out the blue cease contact with you. No reason (oh wait they don't need to give you one - their choice they didn't need to. Oh I forgot) No email, call, text, mob messenger. Not even the common courtesy to say fuck you...goodbye. Oh yeah what was I thinking, they didn't care right. They just put a block on you, delete you from everything you had contact with, and what have you. And these are suppose to be your friends? Wow! And they do this to preserve something more grandiose right?

There is an old proverb that says: The truest wealth is in a man is measured by the friends he has. Well, then I'm going broke faster than Charlie Sheen at a hooker convention. Sure don't feel like winning on this one. It's an EPIC FAIL.

But, in the aftermath of all this, I guess I did learn something. Forever is not permanent. (give it less then 2 years maybe) Insecurities is the coin of stupidity and irrational thought. Loyalty goes as far as convenience will allow it. And if your friends are in relationships. Chances are you better start looking on Craig's list for new friends. Or by a dog. This does not apply to all but it does to a huge majority. And now I'm seeing the numbers rising higher than the national debt.

I will end this rant with this. Real friends hard to find - I learned that much and to those who are that. This does not pertain to you. And know you are appreciated beyond words. And those who can relate and understand this - know that your voice is heard. But those who are guitly. A perfect anagram can describe what a friend is:

Fraudulent

Ridiculous

Individuals

Effortlessly

Nurturing

Delusions

Think about that before using that phrase again...

How far has one progressed...

just to thrown so far back. I read this article and honestly it really made me think and wonder.

http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2011/04/nearly-of-mississippi-republicans-think-interracial-marriage-should-be-illegal.php

With such progress that this nation has achieved within the last few years, and yes, we have, how can something like this just be so disturbing? And the consensus of many?
And what even makes this strike a nerve for me personally is that this is from my own home state.

First of all, yes I am from Mississippi. Been there almost my entire life and I am proud to say I am from there and always will be. Yet, I hear so many of the stereotypes thrown about this state: how backward it is, where they still think it's the Civil War and not progressed to the 21st century and that racism is still the language of the day. To make matters worse, I had people ask me do they still hang people there in 2011?

There is no need of retelling my state's dark and tragic history. Or even mention that yes, there still places there that you be best not to be around after sunset, but the question you must ask is why?

The answer is as simple as the sun is bright during the day: Ignorance, fear and honestly plan stupidity.

Really make something illegal just because two people who may love each other can't get married based on a skin color. Really??? And law makers who are elected by the citizenry want this. Remember most of our elected officials have the minds and interests of their constituents' views and values. So the ideas of many are of blindness. (We not talking racism - cause everyone has an inherit racism of one or another. As sad as it is, it's there and never will be clearly eradicated.) But just on something so obvious.

I ask anyone regardless of color, political affiliation or values this one question: if it doesn't apply to you directly to you: why is it such a big deal. You not the one who is in the relationship and it don't affect you personally. Why should you or do you care? Does it affect your personal, everyday life???

Where is it that it is written you have to be one color one race to have a relationship? Will it cause some apocalyptic event for one to marry outside their race? Get a grip! In this country, show me some family line that has not veered off their tree to play in another bush. For ALL those who claim they can, I can probably say look at those "secret" branches in the closet.

Wake up people. You don't have to like it, you don't even have to acknowledge it but at least don't run around and prohibit something that has no LEGAL precedent just because you don't like it.

And for my state, let's just come into the present. Let's not be the butt of so many jokes by the rest of the nation. Wake up and open your mind and be reasonable here. It's not hard to do.
