Wow, you mean the U.S. doesn't have the market cornered
on racial inequality? You'd never know by our news coverage.
This has been page five stuff over here, maybe a small front
page headline off and on.

For all the finger-wagging we get about things like this you'd
think someone would pounce on this opportunity to point out
we're not the only "civilized" western nation where this occurs.
Maybe give a little more history on why these people were
ready to riot after two teens get killed while hiding from police.

Instead it's pretty low on the radar over here, right next to the
stories like "Oh, five more soldiers died today, just so you know."

It amazes me what they put on the front page instead sometimes.
The latest update on all the local politics, mostly. The important
stuff? Put it behind the story about the mayor's wife's DUI...


yawn> Are the Lakers playing tonight?

YES! Lakers 104-Hawks 97.

Paul, the service related jobs are and will continue to go overseas.
And it only makes sense. The rest of the world only exists to serve
America. It's a tough pill to swallow, but it is the truth. Let the
low paying jobs go out of country. They need to Paul.
The problem is that the United States has evolved to such a superior
intellect over the rest of the world that the delta is becoming a
management problem for us. It is incumbent on America to drag the rest
of the world kicking and screaming into the present.
Then maybe we won't have to prop up their economies and fight their
wars.


U da man! I'm so glad you're around more often! While the klieg lights
focus on you, my activities get to continue being ignored until once
again the appropriate time comes for me to drop a really politically
incorrect boner and get smushed by the ruling elite.

Speaking of Smush, what time is that Lakers game?

p.s. You know sometimes those girls in Manila and Bangalore who handle
the planet's technical support now, are HOT.

I never get the girl (so to speak). I always get someone who channels Apu.

I (like many of the film-loving French) was shocked by 'La Haine'* ten

Ah, Hate.. haven't seen it in a while. Have to dig up the old VHS copy.

Gotta love those "Wow" chips. Never a better name for a product. You
ate them and..... "WOW, what just happened?!?!?"

Unfortunately you don't qualify. In this very newsgroup on October 24th,
replying to my surprised statement:
"Blimey! you can quote Fawlty Towers? You are a rare 'Merkin indeed.",
you said:
"Remember, i'm a "Californian", not a 'Merkin! "

No points for you, me 'ol mate.

Your 308 is going to end up stacked full of all your
earthly belongings just like the TV show if you keep
that up...


Now that I think of it, Jed Clampett did sport a very
worn out hat...
