Interesting Opinion From One Hundred And One Years Ago

Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907:
'In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...there can be no divided allegiance here.

Can Someone Explain This To Me?

Many years ago I made the decision that there are several things I promised I would never complain about because THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING I COULD DO TO CHANGE THEM. The weather was one, gas prices are another example.
OK, I get it, oil has gone up dramatically and apparently gas prices are at record levels (a story that was almost overlooked by the mainstream media). That is not my beef here. I filled up yesterday and took advantage of the “convenient” pay at the pump credit card swipe thingy. Here’s the question; has no one told the folks who program these pumps that the price has doubled?
The $50.00 limit was fine a year or so ago when you could fill up and hit that amount or be close enough. But come on, can we adjust this figure so I don’t have to ‘reload’ three freaking times just to top off?
OK, I got that out, please continue with whatever it was you were doing.

Another Reason Why I Love Living In Arizona

The best part? His budget for the entire department is now less than $3 million per year. The prisoners get the benefit of about $0.28 an hour for working but most would work for free just to be out of their cells for the day. Most of his budget is for utilities, building maintenance, etc. He pays the prisoners out of the fees collected for adopted animals. You might to wonder when other states might take a look at the way he runs the jail system and copy some of his ideas.
He has a huge farm donated to the county years ago where inmates can work and they grow most of their own fresh vegetables and food, doing all the work and harvesting by hand. He has a pretty good sized hog farm which provides meat and fertilizer. It fertilizes the Christmas tree nursery where prisoners work and you can buy a living Christmas tree for $6 - $8 for the Holidays and plant it later.
Guess what...he was reelected in 2006 with 83% of the vote.

For those of you who may not be familiar with Joe Arpaio, he is the Maricopa Arizona County Sheriff who keeps getting elected over and over. Here are a few reasons:
- Sheriff Joe Arpaio created the "Tent City Jail": He has jail meals down to 40 cents a serving and charges the inmates for them.
- He stopped smoking and porno magazines in the jails, took away their weights and cut off all but "G" movies.
- He started chain gangs so the inmates could do free work on county and city projects.
- Then He Started Chain Gangs For Women So He Wouldn't Get Sued For Discrimination.
- He took away cable TV…Until he found out there was a Federal Court Order that required cable TV for jails so he hooked up the cable TV only to let in the Disney and Weather channels. When asked why the Weather Channel, he replied: "So they will know how hot it's gonna be while they are working on my chain gangs".
- He cut off coffee since it has zero nutritional value. When the inmates complained, he told them, "This isn't The Ritz...if you don't like it, don't come back".
- He bought Newt Gingrich's lecture series on videotape that he pipes into the jails.
- When asked by a reporter if he had any lecture series by a Democrat, he replied that a democratic lecture series might explain why a lot of the inmates were in his jails in the first place
More on the Arizona Sheriff:
The Associated Press reports about 2,000 inmates living in a barbed-wire-surrounded tent encampment at the Maricopa County Jail have been given permission to strip down to their government-issued pink boxer shorts.
On Wednesday, hundreds of men wearing boxers were either curled up on their bunk beds or chatted in the tents, which reached 138 Degrees Inside The Week Before. Many were also swathed in wet, pink towels as sweat collected on their chests and dripped down to their PINK SOCKS. "It feels like we are in a furnace," said James Zanzot, an inmate who has lived in the TENTS for 1 year. "It's inhumane".
Joe Arpaio, the tough-guy sheriff who created the tent city and long ago started making his prisoners wear pink, and eat bologna sandwiches, is not one bit sympathetic. He said Wednesday that he told all of the inmates: "It's 120 degrees in Iraq and our soldiers are living in tents too, and they have to wear full battle gear, but they didn't commit any crimes, so shut your damned mouths!"
Way to go Sheriff Joe! Maybe if all prisons were like this one there would be less crime and/or repeat offenders. Criminals need to be punished for their crimes. Does the guy have an ego, you bet but guess what, he gets shit done. Period.

How To Drink With A Redneck Gal...

The Arab, obviously impressed by this, drinks his beer, throws his glass into the air, pulls out his AK-47, and shoots the glass to pieces and says, "In the Arab World, we have so much sand to make glasses that we don’t need to drink with the same one twice either."
The redneck girl, cool as a cucumber, picks up her beer, downs it in one gulp, throws the glass into the air, whips out her 45, and shoots the Mexican and the Arab. Catching her glass, setting it on the bar, and calling for a refill, she says, "In America we have so many illegal aliens that we don’t have to drink with the same ones twice."

New Movies Out This Summer
If you liked 'School of Rock' here's the sequel:
Another one from the 'Back to the Future' franchise:
'Glen & Gary, Glen & Ross' (NSFW Language):
'Good Will Hunted':
Sequel to 'Cocktail':
And finally, the follow up to 'The Shining':
Memories Of George - Godspeed
New Rule: No more gift registries. You know, it used to be just for weddings. Now it's for babies and new homes and graduations from rehab. Picking out the stuff you want and having other people buy it for you isn't gift giving, it's the white people version of looting.
New Rule: Stop giving me that pop-up ad for classmates.com! There's a reason you don't talk to people for 25 years. Because you don't particularly like them! Besides, I already know what the captain of the football team is doing these days --- mowing my lawn.
New Rule: Don't eat anything t hat's served to you out a window unless you're a seagull. People are acting all shocked that a human finger was found in a bowl of Wendy's chili. Hey, it cost less than a dollar. What did you expect it to contain? Lobster?
New Rule: Stop saying that teenage boys who have sex with their hot, blond teachers are permanently damaged . I have a better description for these kids: 'Lucky bastards.'
New Rule: Ladies, leave your eyebrows alone...Here's how much men care about your eyebrows: Do you have two of them? Good, we're done.
New Rule: There's no such thing as flavored water. There's a whole aisle of this crap at the supermarket, water, but, without that watery taste. Sorry, but flavored water is called a soft drink. You want flavored water? Pour some scotch over ice and let it melt. That's your flavored water.
New Rule: The more complicated the Starbucks order, the bigger the asshole. If you walk into a Starbucks and order a 'decaf grandee, half-soy, half-low fat, iced vanilla, double-shot, gingerbread cappuccino, extra dry, light ice, with one Sweet-n'-Low, and One NutraSweet,' ooooh, you're a huge asshole.
New Rule: I'm not the cashier! By the time I look up from sliding my card, entering My PIN number, pressing 'Enter,' verifying the amount, deciding, no, I don't want Cash back, and pressing 'Enter' again, the kid who is supposed to be ringing me up is standing there eating my Mars Bar.
New Rule: Just because your tattoo has Chinese characters in it doesn't make you Spiritual. It's right above the crack of your ass. And it translates to 'beef with broccoli.' The last time you did anything spiritual, you were praying to God you weren't pregnant. You're not spiritual. You're just high.
New Rule: If you're going to insist on making movies based on crappy old television shows, then you have to give everyone in the Cineplex a remote so we can see what's playing on the other screens. Let's remember the reason something was a television show in the first place is that the idea wasn't good enough to be a movie.
New Rule (And this one is long overdue): No more bathroom attendants. After I zip up, some guy is offering me a towel and a mint like I just had sex with George Michael. I can't even tell If he's supposed to be there, or just some freak with a fetish. I don't want to be on your webcam, Dude. I just want to wash my hands
New Rule: When I ask how old your toddler is, I don't need to hear '27 months.' 'He's two' will do just fine. He's not a cheese. And I didn't really care in the first place.
New Rule: If you ever hope to be a credible adult and want a job that pays better than Minimum wage, then for God's sake don't pierce or tattoo every available piece of flesh. If so, then plan your future around saying, 'Do you want fries with that?'
And my own personal favorite regarding saving the planet:
