snafu Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 Along with our usual safety meetings, we get and added agenda. We are handed letters with our names on them and are told they are a survey and that it is totally voluntary that we fill them out. When you open it up it tells you your name, ssn, employment number and gender. They know damn well what ethnic goup I'm in but still need to ask. 1) Indian, Native American 2 )Mexican or Hispanic 3) Black or African American 4) White White? White? If you ain't native, Hispanic, or black you are whitey? What about White American? **** I want a hyphen! I do have different ethnicities in me. Who the **** cares what color you are or how long you've owned the land? Why can't we be all Americans? Or ( Canadians or any other nation whichever this speech might deem applicable) Quote *NEVER FORGOTTEN*

Quote http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_5I0M6PKr5HM/SrZiXevwa5I/AAAAAAAAAIo/HZMRBP1nwyI/s200/obama-socialism-attacks-capitalism.jpg It's a mistake to think that poor people get the benefit from the welfare system. It's a total fraud. Most welfare go to the rich of this country: the military-industrial complex, the bankers, the foreign dictators, it's totally out of control. This idea that the government has services or goods that they can pass on is a complete farce. Governments have nothing. They can't create anything, they never have. All they can do is steal from one group and give it to another at the destruction of the principles of freedom, and we ought to challenge that concept. - Ron Paul

Members RoyalOrleans Posted June 5, 2008 Members Posted June 5, 2008 Catherine Zeta is beautiful! Wales produces the pretties. From what I have seen, I would have to agree. Could be due to the great romances of the Mabinogion.

emkay64 Posted June 5, 2008 Posted June 5, 2008 I like medieval literature and mythology, but haven't read much about it since my elective class in University :o I'm reading Haunted -- by Chuck Pahlaniuk (author of Fight Club) right now. It's all about masterbation, sex, murder and various other grim and twisted topics. It's kinda sick :o Black Humor....I love it. Quote
