We're taking bets that I am getting on my high horse...

So I was listening to NPR on my way home from the gym today. I know that makes me sound kind of snobby, but it is a fact. NPR is actually a good place to get news you should be hearing. Anyway, I heard this story about a crazy racist town in Louisiana. Now you need to read the article or better yet listen to the link at the top before you read on. I was so outraged I wanted to drive to the town and punch that crazy kid and cut off his mullet and give him a 80's Bobby Brown haircut. Then I would find his parents and kick his dad in the nuts and give his mom the worst titty twister of her life.

How is this not on every single news channel and national news? I just don't get it. Three fucking nooses on a tree!!! I understand we have not evolved that much since the 60's. We all think that we have, but it is just a bunch of BS. We need a new Martin Luther King Jr. and Bobby Kennedy in America. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Al Gore and just aren't doing what we need done. Where are our charismatic leaders that inspired people to march on Washington or try to affect positive change in our society. Our society communicates as well as a rock to a tree. Yes we have the means, but no one is truly saying anything.

I know that I am not perfect by any means. I have my white privilege although I am a strong part Mexican. I do stereotype sometimes. I think that I give everyone a fair shake though. If you are an asshole it does not matter whether you are black, white, green or purple. You are still an asshole. I think that is truly how we should be judged. By how we treat others and interact in our daily lives. If you are have your own blog please invited others to read this or at the very least post the story to your blog. Encourage others to do the same. Maybe we can make this national news by getting bloggers across our great nation to show their outrage of racism in our country!!!

We're taking bets that he was a true genius...

Sadly Bill Walsh passed away today. Most people don't know I was initially a San Fransisco 49ers fan because of Joe Montana and Bill Walsh. He changed the game of football both offensively and with his acceptance of black coaches. While most people will forget the latter fact he truly was someone to be admired and I hope that he is met with respect in heaven by all of the sports pioneers.

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

I have found out a way to watch the news every night. Have Uber-Hottie Melissa Theuriau report it every night. I just need to learn French. She may be the sexiest newscaster ever. I am including a YouTube clip to further prove my point.

We're taking bets that people love to shop...

Hello WTBT readers!!! I am heading to vacation on Friday night. It has been a long July. I hope you do not miss me too much. I probably won't be posting until after next Thursday. I am going to good old RI. It should be fun times. Enjoy the questions and have a great weekend.

A. If you could spend a weekend alone in one store but couldn't remove any items which store would it be and why?

B. What is the one guilty pleasure that you feel you have to buy monthly and think you would feel strange if you didn't buy it?

C. If you had to eliminate one odor in the world what would it be?

Answers:

A. I think I would spend it in a Super Target because there would be so much to do. Especially in the world of entertainment. Plus it would make my best friend happy that I didn't go to the Evil Empire Wal-Mart.

B. I think it is buying DVDs. I have cut down considerably, but I still buy at least one a month. Very odd I know.

C. I think it would be the smell of burning rubber. I really hate that smell. Especially when driving towards New Haven in the summer. Ick.

We're taking bets that if you think you know you probably don't...

Here are a few things of interest.



* Although the Red Sox currently are not playing their best baseball they still have the most wins in all of the MLB. The Yankees are barely above .500 baseball and will not make the play-offs this year. I am sorry to all the Yankee fans that think they have a chance.


* Smurfette was not a hot cartoon. Even her voice was annoying and I can't believe people actually liked her. Jessica Rabbit from Roger Rabbit was probably the hottest of the cartoon of all time.


* Do Not RUIN HARRY POTTER FOR EVERYONE!!! All of these stupid people who cannot wait 3 days for the book are ridiculous. I may have spoiled some things for people in the past, but nothing like Harry Potter. What is it doing for you? Are you making money off it? It is a children's book and you should not ruin it for them. Idiots!!!

* this guy is the biggest liar I have heard of this year.

* Harry Potter is one of the best movies of the summer.

We're taking bets that nostaglia is cool...

Hello WTBT readers!!! I hope that everyone is doing well. I have been very busy and have not had time to do a lot of post. I apologize and hope I can be back with a vengeance soon. I have a few questions for everyone. I hope you enjoy them. Have a great day.

A. If it was cool for adults to have lunchboxes what would be on yours?

B. If you could have an old movie poster hanging in your house what would it be and why? (A movie before 2000)

C. If there were no negative consequences to you at all but no doing one of these things would result in your demise would you rather steal candy from a baby, knock over an elderly man who uses a cane or walk up to another adult and just punch them in the face? (No one would get seriously hurt)

Answers:

A. Well part of me would really like Transformers since it was such an awesome movie, but I think I would really have LOST. It would be a picture of the island with the entire cast around it.

B. I would have an original Say Anything poster with John Cusak holding the radio above his head. Very cool and meaningful to me.

C. I would take candy from a baby no question because they probably would not remember later in life or even later that day.

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Hottie Isla Fisher has two movies coming out this summer Hot Rod with Adam Samberg and Definitely, Maybe with Jason Biggs. She has been pretty huge since Wedding Crashers. Being the fiancee of Borat doesn't help either. This Aussie hottie seems to be the woman comedienne we need in our movies.

We're taking bets that it is never too late...

Hello WTBT readers!! I hope all of my American readers enjoyed the Fourth of July. (To be honest I don't think I have many international readers.) I do believe that a Wednesday holiday is kind of a waste. It gets you excited, but at the same time is over quickly and you have to go back to work. I have a few questions for everyone. I hope that you all enjoy. Invite others. Have fun!!!

A. List three things you regret not learning to do. Why?

B. What is one thing you know how to do that you wish you never learned?

C. How come we laugh at funny looking people with our friends even though we know it is wrong and mean?

Answers:

A. First, driving a standard. It has limited my driving abilities a few times in my life. Second, learning to truly play piano. I know some very basics, but it would be cool to step up to a piano at any place and make people happy with music. Lastly I always wished I learned more about cars. With all of the money I have doled out for repairs it would have been nice to do some of them myself.

B. I wish I had never learned how to enjoy bad food. Although I love the taste I wish I had a learned about the negatives of this food when I was a child and did not love it so.

C. I think it is because we are uncomfortable and laughter makes it okay. I saw a child who looked like a shaved gorillla the other day and I restrained so hard to laugh and make comments. I think that overall it is only okay if we do it in private and not to tease/bully that person.

We're taking bets that Hottie of the Week...

Mandy Moore has developed into a serious hottie. This 5'10 beauty has a new movie coming out along with a new CD. She is a complete talent and if you want to see her at her best go out and rent Saved. What a great movie. She is the villain and you have to love her for it.
