Always a “Redneck”
I was meant to be a “redneck” ~ long before I moved to Alabama. How do I know this is so, you might ask? Perhaps because the things I find most interesting in life are things like a racecar flying thru the air, ending a Nascar race in traditional style (totally demolished) but with a driver who hops out unharmed and trots over to the finish line. The driver was a young man named Carl Edwards, who wanted to finish the race ~ even if it was on foot! Now that’s determination!
It proves that there are still people who have a dedication to what they do (no matter how dumb other people may think it is). Too bad that more true Americans are not like this young man, determined to see things through to the end, no matter what the personal cost.
Yes, give me a stock car race anytime, instead of listening to a news reporter praise the fashion sense of the President’s wife. Ya’ll really care what the woman wears? If you do, then I feel very sorry for you, and wonder if you miss your common sense.
I suppose I’ll prove today that I am indeed a “redneck”, left-wing, southern-fried American, as I want to tell you about a magazine that you should be reading. Some will call it “conspiracy theory b.s.”, but you might just see a grain of truth in it. It’s called “Whistle Blower” and its’ creators certainly tried to get to the truth about the proof (or lack thereof) of Obama’s birth certificate. I won’t go into it any deeper, as I would like to stay on the internet, and get really tired of people telling me that my opinion is wrong. I always thought opinions were the personal property of the giver ~ and I know they are just what my uncle used to say: “Opinions are like assholes, everybody’s got one!”
Now I’ll be nice and say that I respect everybody’s opinion, and the right to give it. Too bad that the Miss California who recently voiced her opinion when asked a question, lost out on being Miss USA because they did not like her opinion. I always thought honesty was one of the things they wanted a Miss USA to have.
I hate to hear about the new flu virus, I’m sure it will get a lot worse before it gets better. Of course, being a “redneck” it’s just one more thing I’d like to blame on Mexico, but perhaps there is another reason that this new virus has popped up. Maybe God’s trying to tell us something, and as usual, we’re too stupid to listen.
