First...Some Observations 10/21/11

OBSERVATIONS ON THE BRONX-BOUND 6 TRAIN

If the brown hair on top of your head totally does not match the graying, less brownish color on the sides, are you really under the impression that you are fooling anyone?

You would think that the worst thing a man in his 60’s could do in 2011 is dress in baggy jeans and a baseball cap as if he were a thug from the 90’s, right? True until you watch him discreetly take out his teeth and put them into a napkin, then into his pocket…

When her shoe laces match the cover of her cell phone and it’s not an accident, yeah…you’re in the ghetto.

So this dumb kid was wearing a t-shirt that read “The Die Young and Rich Club.” Dude, really? Maybe it has yet to dawn on you that you are on the 6 train, stupid. You are just as rich as the homeless guy drooling on you as he takes a nap. Go join his club.

OBSERVATIONS ON PARENTING

Ok so we all know it’s stupid to get a 3 year old Jordan’s if you are on welfare. But what if you are not on welfare, and the Jordan’s are on sale and actually cheaper than the plain NIKE’s? It’s ok then right?

I am sure that “Creeping Death” by Metallica is inappropriate for a 3 year old. But what if he really likes it and has yet to kill anyone? It’s ok then right?

NEWS & CURRENT EVENTS

So it looks like the Arab Spring continues its body count. Add Libyan maniac and borderline cross-dresser Mummar Qaddafi to the list of Arab dictators who have either been deposed or killed. This really doesn’t present any other problem that we have not addressed before as far as power vacuums in the region go, but what is novel is that this was the first Arab dictator killed by a guy wearing a Yankee cap…WIN! He certainly connected more times than Alex Rodriguez and Mark Teixiera did in the playoffs this year.   

And did I hear Obama right when he said that the troops were finally coming home from Iraq? Republicans were critical as usual. Not just because they are bitter obstructionists who hate anything good that Obama does, but they always seem to have a hard time with politicians who actually keep their campaign promises. It undermines the whole process!

THIS WEEK’S REASON WHY TERRORISTS WANNA KILL US

Actually we are killing them at such a fast rate I don’t think there will be anything left for this section of my blog anymore.
