APART......
Okay...My rant for the day...(drum roll) Electronic world.. Sorry if I am telling my age...But I remember when you could pump your gas before you paid.. Now, even this is becoming a dying practice... My town is small..I mean small, and until just recently you could pump your gas without paying first..Alas the world finally encroaches even here..Today for the first time in my town I had to pay before pumping...Thanks, modern age...Lets just go ahead and pay our phone bills at book store our light bills at hardware stores and while we are at it lets make life so convenient that we never have to talk to a nother real person face to face ever again.. Lets reduce everything about ourselves to meaningless numbers and never talk to the same person twice about our accounts...Forever reapeating the last four digits of our social( for security purposes) to an undercaring underpaid voice in new dehli ... Lets continue to be surcharged for actually wanting to talk to a human and be punished for being one..No one knows your name...No one knows your face>> But the certainly know your credit card expiration date....People are like gold...the more of us there are the less each individual feels worth.. They are banking on that low self esteem, literally.... PART 2 Communication It also occurs to me that the more electronic ways there are to get closer..The.....more......it.....drives.....us......apart...Used to there were reasons you weren't in touch...Mail didn't come....river flooded....Phone line broke...And so on...Today there is no excuse..But i still hear an endless supply of them as if cellphones and email didn't knock out most of them...Excuses excuses excuses..I am not the worlds most responsible guy.. So when I see a problem with sticktuitiveness and integrity, it is time to get scared.. Or at least take another look.. I am not sure if this post maesures up to my last... In fact I am sure it doesn 't... I will endeavor to do better in future.... Your personal Pariah WILL.. : ) |

you forgot something Will, what about having to push one for English two
for Spanish before you enter the last four digits of your phone number? WTF??!! this is America - you want to live here learn the language!!! It used to piss me off so bad to turn on Seaseme Street when my daughter was little and the whole freaking episode would be in Espanol. Nothing wrong with learning another language if you want to. That's great but it shouldn't be an alternate language to English if you are an American.... which reminds me of a hysterical video I seen on the net. A family of foriegners, two kids and their parents, come to the U.S. get in a car, turn on the radio and there's a song playing with the words "I wanna fuck you in the ass" and they all start smiling and bebopping along with the tune. Get my drift? This is America...we all come from somewhere, but English is what is spoken here! Learn it! You don't go France or Germany and expect them to speak English NO!! You learn their language. Part three (trace) of the rant will...sorry, got off on a tangent myself...I'll leave quatro up to you... J |

Well what do you expect guy...
BUSH is getting rid of our national soverignty and has ALREADY signed us onto the North American Union which means... Canada...Mexico & The U.S. will be MERGED as ONE WHOLE north american Union like the E.U...no more borders...no more soverignty...no more bill of rights or constitution and everyone in the world that can get here CAN and will... Go to http://www.spp.gov/ And with the North American Union you will have Transponders in ALL the cars that will have alittle tracking chip in your State Inspection Stickers TAXING YOU by the MILE...all merged also with our new National I.D. Biometric card that will generate into A Gradual Sales Tax as well..and down the road in the future if you don't have this card you won't be able to: 1) Have a job 2) Buy or Purchase Goods 3) Get into the shopping malls or Seaworld without it!! and lots of other horrible goodies for you and me...hitler's nazi germany could never of dreamed of something like this... In other words...with those taxes we will be forced to pay taxes for our OWN DESTRUCTION...the death of america...DO YOU UNDERSTAND... Go to GOOGLE and type in NORTH AMERICAN COMMUNITY and read the loving CFR (Council on Foreign Relations) (Google Search) - http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&rls=GGLG%2CGGLG%3A2006-19%2CGGLG%3Aen&q=Building+A+North+American+Community Building a North American Community - PDF File of the actual Document online for ALL to see - http://www.cfr.org/content/publications/attachments/NorthAmerica_TF_final.pdf#search=%22Building%20A%20North%20American%20Community%22 And Will my friend if you think it's bad now...you just wait...you've seen NOTHING yet my friend and it's going to get very very very very VERY bad here...but I know I know...people will now attack the messenger for telling the truth and showing you now...watch as those switches in the brain turn off and watch people deny it and it's right there...I'm sorry if the truth hurts...but it's the facts and the truth...just denying it or wishing it away WON'T HELP... Bush has just committed TREASON under the consitution and without the approval of congress...research it more yourselves...I've said my factual part and don't hate me for showing you because remember...I'm not the one that just handed the only free country left in the world over to the world banks, IMF, CFR on the alter of globalism & world government in which this is all about and for the people to return to a life of serftum or slavery this is what it's all about a HIGH TECH CONTROL SOCIETY...ENJOY!!! |

No Chica, not everyone does, but if you reside in the US that is the
native language and what should be spoken primarily...not Spanish, sorry. If I went to live in Mexico I wouldn't expect them to learn English I would expect to have to learn Spanish comprenda? No disrespect intended. J |

right on my sisters and brothers, we as a people needs to stand up and
put our foot, eneough is a fukin damn enough, it's true we all are going to hell in a hand bag! i noticed the change serveral times before hand. it really started freaking me out when i saw the grocery stores installing electronic registers(self check outs) i mean what kind of a jetson's hell are we moving into! they have the technology for flying cars but, not yet marketed them, whats next they already are working on high death weapons, etc. and that thing about the language fukin pisses me off too, but get this...as of the moment i have been recieveing foodstamps and every month from the time my 1st son was born i had to do a review for elligability(?) now, they want mine and my kids proof of identiy, after we have been going there 4 yrs. they know who i am and my kids and that we were born and raised a legall american citizen! they want proof of idenity but, a birth certificate no, they want a fukin school record of all things! it would make much more since to me if they took the damn birth certificate! anyone can go to school and be who ever they say they are! and all this fukin boils down to all the damn illegall imagrants! same goes for our over populated country, i believe thats why they changed our phone #'s cuz we all down here have to use the area code plus the # now to make a local fukin call! or thats just another way to tap our phones. i understand the safty issue, but if they figured they need to do this then how come their secret agents didn't tap the damn terrorists shit long time ago. i mean they should have i record on every single imagrant thta comes into this country no matter who they are. now, don't get me wrong cuz i know that we have our own bad asses out there. but, they pretty much take care of them selves and shoot one another off. lol, but come on! this shit is just crazy before we know we'd invite the real alliens from some far off galaxy and say welcome to the land of the free. lol get for real! |

There are lot of people, who reside in the United State so many years
and haven't learn the English language. Which is sad. My kids speak English as their primary language, because i always speak to them and sometime in spanish. tu habla espanol J |

I have a lot of respect for you doing that Chica,
But often times it is the other way around. The US has made it an alernate language so if Spanish speaking immigrants do not want to use English - they don't have to. I don't agree with that. I think everyone should now a second language, however should speak the language that is native to the country they are living in. I tried to learn French as that is my heritage. I've always planned a to take a trip to Europe one day...and I'm almost certain when I use the phone it will not tell me press #1 for English J |

I agree with Jaime, LEARN ENGLISH!!!!
Is it that fucking hard? Keep your native language if you want but learn English. Alot of my ancestors are from Ireland. We didn't get to come over the border. We hadda sail on a fuckin' dirty ass ship and they made you stay at Ellis Island until they were sure you were healthy and had no diseases to pass on. Then... They put you out into a world where alot of the places you could get jobs had signs saying "no Irish wanted" My ancestors HAD to learn English pretty damn quick! They also took on the shittiest jobs cos no one else would hire them. They had to become part of America. That really is all we ask of anyone else is that if you come here, become part of here. If you live here, make this place a home. Don't just not learn the language, get all the benefits, send all your money home, and not become a part of this place. Nothing is being asked of the current wave of immigrants that wasn't asked of any other wave of immigrants. As far as Bush goes... I voted for him twice and used to have respect for this man but I see him giving our country away on a silver platter. Outsourcing jobs to India should be illegal! This is the problem with our country, we are too busy solving everybody else's problems and not taking care of our own asses. |

Amazing Jimi and so True!! My mom is Irish.
My grandparents on my father's side were our first decendents here. They spoke fluent French but had no choice but to learn the language and as you put it damn quick if they wanted to eat - there were no handouts in those days. They were dirt poor, my grandpa made jewlery out of silverware, but once he learned English got a job in the coal mine. Point being, they never forgot their heritage or where they came from but they came to America to be Americans... |
