Yankees \ Red Sox 2

Red Sox - Congrats on winning. You guys showed a lot of heart and didn't get down on yourselves and came all the back from the brink. You showed true heart and although I loathe your team...you deserved to win. Of course...I will be rooting for the National League in the World Series!!


Yankees - Money can't buy everything! (Steinbrenner needs to learn that.....last year should have taught him so this year I hope it sinks in!)

Yankees \ Red Sox

I have always been a True Blue Yankees fan. During the late 70's when they dominated and through the 80's and early 90's when they completely and utterly sucked. And of course lately when they have been pretty dominant as well.

After watching the Yankees go up 3 games to 0 with a 19-8 victory I am sure we all thought the series was in the bag. I had my doubts though and game 4 and game 5 proved those feelings of doubt correct.

The Yanks have the highest payroll in baseball so they should pretty much win every game 19-8. Also, if you have runners in scoring position with less than 2 outs and you constantly do not score you really do not deserve to win.

All that being said....just a little part of me is kind of rooting for the Sox. I know that is sacrilege, but I always like to root for the under dog. (That is what the Yankees really were when this Series started...regardless if they finished in First Place.) Especially for a team that has shown that much heart in the past 2 games. Most of me is hoping they go back to Boston with their tails between their legs, but I can't help rooting just a little bit for them.

There...I said it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Deleted Post

I deleted my last post because after reading a comment from Muffingal I realized that it would turn out to be a never ending back and forth. That was exactly what I was trying to avoid.

I will say this. Many White people feel that Black people and Non-White people are being given preferential treatment with things like Affirmative Action. Many Black people or Non-White people feel like White people get treated better than everyone else. I can only speak from the White side of things. In short I can say this...My Grandparents came here from Germany and they weren't handed a damn thing. They had to work for everything they got. My Mom raised her kids as a single parent and worked jobs that current welfare recipients stick their noses up at since they feel they make more on the public dole than actually working. I have not been handed anything either. Look at the more than modest studio apartment I live in and I think that will be apparent.

The point of my post that I deleted was that we should all just stop singling ourselves out and just be Americans. Easier said than done???...absolutely, but I think it would be better for all of us to stick together than to keep pointing fingers at each other when things do not go our way. There will always be racism unfortunately, but many people do not realize that racism works both ways.

I think my point was missed on my last post as maybe I didn't really read what I had written. I have saved the post in a doc file and may tweak it a bit and put it back up. I also saved Muffingal's comment as well.

Anyways...this will probably be one of the few times I actually delete a post. I could just see argument after argument arising from the latest one and that was so far from my intention I decided to nix it.

Terrorism and Iraq

They have been asking on the evening news and in the papers, "Is terrorism more of a threat now since the Iraq War?" The answer is obviously "NO".

I know the popular answer would be yes, but let me explain. Until 9/11 how many of us even knew who the hell the Taliban was? How many really had heard the name Bin Laden? Not too many I would imagine. Within hours after 9/11 Taliban became a household word as did the group name Al Qaeda.

The only difference between then and now is that people are hearing about these freaks every day. The thought of terrorists in the US is no longer an "in the closet" idea. There is no more of a threat now then there was before 9/11...people are just more informed as to the goings on of these maniacs. Maybe if people had been kept informed before 9/11 that day could have been prevented.

Are terrorists more vocal on attacking US interests since the Iraq war started? Of course they are! Why? Because they know we are a real threat to their sick way of life. For people to argue that the war has produced more terrorists in Iraq than there ever were I say "GOOD". Let's round them up like fish in barrel and do away with them once and for all. As I have said before...it is time to start playing on the level that these murderers play on. We cannot win this war on terrorism by playing by the rules because terrorism has no rules. That is why it is called TERRORISM! To treat these bastards with respect and fairness would be like letting Charles Manson live out his days at a suite at The Plaza Hotel.

Does the media play up every terrorist threat on the TV news 10 times a day nowadays? Yes they do. That does not make terrorism more of a threat...it just means we are hearing more of the threats than we ever did before.

BTW...once again, where is the media outrage over the beheadings going on in Iraq? I am still seeing news specials on the Abu Ghraib Prison Scandal, but have never seen the same amount of attention given to the beheadings of innocent people. Where the hell is our media's focus on this? Why are there no Muslim groups having protests in the streets regarding the beheadings as they did with the Prison Scandal? Why are beheading videos the number one seller in Iraq? I will answer that last one. Because the people we are saving are ungrateful and actually support the terrorists that are blowing up their own country. Great tourist spot for sure!

It is time to play at the dirty end of the field and end these low lifes existence.

What I miss most Part 1

There is a point in a relationship when you go to bed, say your good nights and turn off the lights. Instead of rolling in opposite directions in the bed to get comfortable in your own space you get close to one another and with one arm draped over the other you fall asleep. Sometimes it is not the most comfortable position, but the fact that you are holding someone you care about as you go to sleep more than makes up for it. Sometimes as your eyes adjust to the darkness you take a peak at the one you are holding onto and smile to yourself; maybe even get butterflies in your stomach for a second before falling asleep.

That is definitely one of the things I miss most.

Marth Stuart 2

Martha Stuart's first quote from her so called jail.......


Eating Pussy.....It's a Good Thing!

Martha Stewart

Who gives a shit about Martha Stewart and the fact that she is going to a sleep away camp imitating a prison??????? Once again....is there nothing more important in the news to hear about?

Fuck Martha Stewart!!



I did not mean that in the physical sense for those of you who just visualized doing so and are probably right now losing your lunch.

Work

Well...this has been a yucky week at work since the departure of Muffingal from my place of work. First Pixierose left and now Muffingal. Two of my most favorite people in the world have flat left me!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me just say to Muffingal, this day, October 7, 2004.......85 DAYS!

Howard Stern

I have to start off by saying that I was never a big Howard Stern fan. Why? It isn't his sense of humor or joking about people that I don't like. It was always the fact that I sensed that although he was great at dishing things out he would never be able to take it if people ever started ripping into him.

Sure enough, during his divorce, people were commenting about it and he used his radio show to bitch and whine how people were talking about his personal life. After all the shit he has said about people..."IS HE FUCKING KIDDING????" He is the male version of Joan Rivers. Joan will kick anyone and everyone when they are down, but as soon as someone says something about her she goes onto Regis and starts crying about it.

So to Howard I say..."Good fucking riddance. I wouldn't listen to you for free let alone pay to hear your lame shit." I will have to say kudos to you though for getting people to listen to your shit for this long.

Also, with everything going on in the world, how in the hell is this big news????? How desperate is our society for news when we give a shit that Howard Stern is unhappy and is quitting free radio? Pretty damn desperate, I guess.
