“And I, like many others I know, feel paralyzed. Crack open a beer and watch as our society hemorrhages”

You really hone in on what I felt throughout my entire experience…in fact, I have had to take a small break before blogging new material…now that school is out…b/c I needed to process what happened to me! I feel like I might have PSD (so not kidding)…I get flashbacks of that place when I’m at home and I cry without warning…it’s crazy and weird for me b/c I am not a “crier” or one who likes to experience too much emotion on the spectrum of sadness….

Paralysis…YES!!!! That’s definitely IT…but not that it has been diagnosed, what do we do about it? Half of the world is in denial I think…drinking beers…(GREAT imagery BTW).

I have walked past “Smashed” many times, and I think I will actually order it from Amazon now…I have always been interested in the book. I also like the fact that you disagree that this issue is only an inner-city issue…I see it there b/c that’s where I last was…but let’s face it…it’s EVERYWHERE! It is the stuff our “entertainment” industry is made of! Of course this issue far supersedes the streets of the inner-city!

Thank you for stopping by the site!

(land stolen with disease, rape, pillage, and death…one of my favorite got milk spoofs, “got land? thank an indian.”)

I don’t want to be too polarizing and nutty, but, the g*oddamn chickens might be coming home to roost! This insanity is a national f*cking crisis that insane evangelicals are capitalizing and polarizing on (having “Father-Daughter Purity Balls” in Colorado Springs where daughters pledge celibacy until marriage in front of God and her father), and nothing is right, the kids aren’t alright, my gen-x-eration isn’t right to sit by slack-jawed and dumbstruck, and laughing ironically at the (ok, ok) hilarious SWPL blog.

Oy.

A great book, tho, that I read recently, that felt like a glimmer of hope (and maybe falls on the dividing line between GenX and GenWHY), Smashed. An excellent, well written memoir about the drinking and debauching of today. Should be required reading for every parent whose child starts high school.

PS – that trophy entry about the award to the pregnant sophomore was hilarious. and haunting. wtf.

PPS – Thanks for the galvanizing read today – it helped me feel slightly less slack-jawed.

The hatred for women was still in the timbre of his voice and scary people like really do exist. The message to parents, needing to know what their teens are doing sexually, is still the defining point.

…and you’re right…it was a tasteless hoax!

Thanks for visiting the site!

In short, he hasn’t infected anyone with HIV.

It’s a tasteless hoax, yes. But just a hoax.
