Bye Bye Methadone Clinic
A month or so ago a building in our hood just done collasped. Luckily no one was hurt, but I recently put two and two together and realized that the building was the home of our local methadone clinic. And now it's not there.
Good news for our block as there won't be methdone folks wandering around with their crazy talking in the mornings.
Bad news for MattyJ as they apparently moved it down to his neck of the woods.
D'oh.


Did I ever tell you about the time I punched the radio?
Yea. This woman called in to the local talk show and stated this gem: "I voted for Obama, but I am not sure I made the right descision because it is taking him too long to fix the economy"

We so stupid.


Speaking of stupid: Dem Bigots!
On some stupid news website that allows comments I saw this lovely discussion about "those damn mexicans" and how they are all having a ton of babies.
"Down in Mexico, all they do is drink tequilla, eat tacos, and have sex".
I've never been to Mexico. Flew over it once.
But if it is true that in Mexico they just drink, eat tacos, and have sex all day... then I am so there.
As if tacos, drinking and screwing could ever be a bad thing.

I've packed up the wife and the cat and we are moving to Mexico.



Speaking of stupid: Immigrant haters
Ya'll need to just shut the hell up. This is America. We are immigrants. Your stupid great great grandfather came to this country and lived in a small community with his countrymen and spoke his native tongue at home and had weird customs and fashions and traditions and other Americans blamed him for all of the societal ills.
America hates immigrants. America is immigrants.


Speaking of stupid: Gay marriage will hurt "regular marriage"
See, I still haven't figured this one out. Ya'll just need to shut up until you figure out your talking points.
I'm married. How will gay marriage hurt my marriage (I mean, we are moving to Mexico, so)?
You know what hurts "regular marriage" probably way more than any gay marriage? Divorce.


Question for the folks of the cloth
If I come to you and say that God spoke to me, there is really no way you can disapprove that, right? So, if I come to you and say, "God told me that tacos are his chosen food" then you can't really do much about that, right?
I mean, God spoke to ME. HE told ME.
How does that work?



Things I like lots
The new Mos Def album. And that last M. Ward album. And the latest Metric album.
I like the High Line.
The High Line Opens
