American Airlines Speaks Up
American Airlines finally sends out an apology for the stupid christianity comments made by a pilot. It is about time…
What was he thinking? The passengers speak out against the idiot pilot!
So, according to the American Airlines pilot I must be crazy! Oh, wait, we already knew that!!!!!!!
You have got to be kidding me!
Give me a fuckin’ break.
Can you imagine someone saying:
“Hi, I have just been to an atheism celebration, please raise your hand if you are an atheist so other passengers can discuss how fucked up their belief system is with you.” ????????

The 21st Century’s “Colored Folk”
We look back at the ridiculous laws separating people with different color shades and say, ?how could that have happened?? There are commercials teaching children, and especially parents, that hate is taught and that it shouldn?t be tolerated. In WWII soldiers who volunteered to die for their country were only allowed to hold jobs as cooks, etc. because of their skin color (excuse given? ?they have poor night vision?). Children were kept out of schools and opportunities were not based on merit, but birth origin.
When are we going to look back at these ridiculous laws and attitudes against Gays and Lesbians, who are treading an up-hill battle against those who hate, (and hold many of these beliefs based on religion) and wonder what we were thinking?
Family isn?t just about marriage. How many marriages end in divorce? THE BEAVER CLEAVER FAMILY IS A PIPE DREAM. Married couples are reaping the benefit of nothing except higher taxes, higher lawsuit liability and high divorce rates. Two people must work in the family to survive financially. June can no longer stay home, clean house, cook dinner, and meet Ward at the door and take his coat when he gets home from work.
I believe that this law is based on something else ( hint, hint, religion). For example, this quote could very easily be changed:
“Marriage is an essential building block of our society, an institution we must reaffirm??
Just replace Marriage with Religion.
Enough of my rant for now, I am late for work.
Yet another “great” PR article for the U.S. Army
This story is still pissing me off. I am revisiting it personally after a very brutal (long) lecture on neurovascular infections.
First, the country’s panic over Mad Cow disease ranks up there with the Flesh Eating Bacteria for irresponsible sensationalism of the facts by the media. For those of you who don’t know CJD, which this soldier was diagnosed with, it is in the same categoryish as “mad cow disease.”
So, with my rambling, I am covering two pet peeves, the Army’s lack of sensitivity, and the media’s scare tactics when it comes to medical issues such as this.
