Oprah Winfrey recently had Tommy Hilfiger on one of her shows. The show started off with Oprah asking Tommy if the statements about race he was accused of saying were true. The statement went something like this:" if I'd known African-Americans, Hispanics, Jewish and Asians would buy my clothes, I WOULD NOT have made them so nice. I wish these people would NOT buy my clothes, as they (my clothes) are made for upper-class white people." Tommy Hilfiger's reply to this was YES! Immediately after this, Oprah asked him to leave her show. WAY TO GO OPRAH! Can't believe this guy said this on national tv.

My suggestion......don't buy anything from Tommy Hilfiger. That goes for perfume, cosmetics, hand bags and clothing. etc......

America practically smashed the Dixie Chicks for having freedom of speech. This guy needs to be smashed for being so ignorant.

I truely hate racist people.....

Woke up Sunday morning to a shaking bed. I thought Kenny was trying to wake me up or something. Around 7am we had an earthquake. What a way to wake up! They say it was a 6.7 quake. About 10 minutes after that we had another one. Things were shaking and making a lot of noise. They said we had over 20 aftershocks. Then around 10am we had another quake that they say was a 5. something. Don't remember. We had no power all day. It did finally come back on in time to go to bed for the night. The phone service was not working so it was not possible to call the few people back who did call me to see if we were all ok. They had issued a tsunami warning and then later said that there was no threat of a tsunami...just unusuall waves and surf. We made the best of things with having no power. We just fired up the barbecue. Made some steaks with the lobster we had caught and some baked potatoes. Ate with the light from a lantern. It was kinda cool. Now we just have more rain. My backyard is becoming a swamp. Hopefully it will quit raining soon. Love the rain but we have had enough for now.

This really pisses me off. For 2 days it's all I heard on the radio while driving to and from work.

A city council man in South Carolina made a suggestion that parents who can't control their children should be sterilized to help reduce crime. He said: "we pick stray animals up off the streets and spay them, these mothers need to be spayed if they can't take care of their own."

This guy is un-real!! Since when is it the sole responsibility of the mother? Where are the fathers? Can't believe this guy!

To begin with, it's not always the parents fault when kids get into trouble. Look at our society today and our government. They have taken God out of everything. Even cartoons now a-days are violent and have crime in them. What about the video games out there? Majority of them deal with killing someone or have to do with stealing and robbing. Don't even get me started on todays TV or some of the music out there.

When the government takes away your right to disapline your own child.....maybe they have to take some of the blame also, not just the parents. That means a mother and a father! This guy in Carolina needs to be slapped.

I don't have the answer but I do know it is out of control and something needs to be done. Not sterilization! Maybe we should take Charlie Daniel's advice.
In his sonf titled Simple Man he says something like "take the drug dealers out and find a big tall tree and a short rope...tie them up and let them swing til the sun goes down. Take the killers....rapist....molesters....out to the swamp, tie them to a stump and let nature take its course. He says: "know whats wrong with the world today...people done gone and put their BIBLES away."

I agree to an extent..

Ok.....have to write something about this because it is really bothering me. I love NFL Football. My favorite team is the Dallas Cowboys. This last Sunday the Cowboys played the Titans. (Tennesse) Cowboys won 45-14.

During this game, I was totally shocked as Haynesworth, a Titan player, stomped on the helmet of Gurode, a Cowboys player. He stomped so hard on Gurode's helmet that it came off. Then Haynesworth continued to stomp on his head cutting his face up with his cleats!

Gurode had to have something like 30 stitches in his face and probably will have to have plastic surgery all because Haynesworth has a temper problem.

The league suspended Haynesworth for 5 games. He also gets no pay while on suspension. They believe this is sufficient enough for his actions. I on the other hand believe that this guy...Haynesworth....should be kicked out of the league and sent to anger management. This is not the first time he has showed his anger is uncontrollable. He should be taken off the field permanately.
