“There are stupid people everywhere. Tell me there are no stupid people in your office”
Me:”There are no stupid people in my office.”
“That’s not what you’ve said”
Me: “Even the very worst of my co-workers could think circles around most people”

I work with a very talented group of folks, most downright brilliant, some merely gifted. None are one dimensional, they all have varied talents and hobbies, and some are quite fascinating.

I’m not surprised by the number of one trick ponies out there. And I don’t care, really, if youre a one trick pony and you do your one trick very well, good for you. Actors tend to be very shallow and one dimensional in real life because they are by their profession blank slates on which others write stories.

I object to those one dimensional folks attempting to tell me what is true and what isn’t. If you think “Racism” when you hear “Tea Party”, you are not only wrong, you are deliberately, willfully wrong. You have chosen a “Belief” (There’s that word again, that I dislike so much) rather than choosing to learn the truth. That is definitive prejudice, and is a good candidate for being a definition of evil. it’s no different than the people who dismissed Sarah Palin out of hand because of the “education” about her they got from the MSM.

I consider myself an idiot, compared to a great number of my friends; however, sadly, I figure I’m smarter than most of the people I know.

This is not bragging, nor does it make me happy.

I’d like to say

I’m disapointed in Morgan Freeman, I’d like to say I’m disapointed in Jeanine Garofolo.

Both are good actors- I loved Garofolo in “Mystery men”. I loved Freeman in “Bucket list”. Morgan has had an impressive career.

I can see where Garofolo, like a lot of other hollywood types, could be a barking moonbat. I had higher hopes for Freeman.

I’d like to take him to a gathering and introduce him to some Tea Party people. I’d like to let him see how they’re just regular people, who want the country to return to it’s first principles. I’d like to show him how the tea partiers are the very antithesis of racism, of sexism, of anything-ism, that they value freedom for everyone above all.

But it’d be like trying to tell a stranger about rock and roll.

What is best in life?

To build the bridge. To drive the train across it. To hear the lamentations of the passengers.

If you have an Android phone, you need to get your mitts on Xconstruct. its a game that gives you some girders and stuff, and you build a bridge, and if you did OK, the train crosses.

here’s the best part: if you fuckup, the train crashes to the ground, and you can hear the passengers screaming.

There’s a free version that you can build I think eight bridges,m then it stops working. The whole ball of wax costs $2 so it’s worth it, once you get hooked on the free one.
