Au contraire my good friend.

before i put in my two cents, I believe this is in order. (yes people yet another Henry David Thoreau quote)


Any fool can make a rule, and any fool will mind it.
Henry David Thoreau

I thought this would be appropriate because you're just following the "advice" of some famous person. But then again i shouldn't be talking because I love these two speakers that I have in this post. But then again, I don't follow the same ideals as they do, I use them more as guidance. And that my friends makes me better than you (except for fredo, he's my clone so he's just as cool as me, and just as better than you).

Be the change you want to see in the world.

- Mahatma Gandhi

Maya Angelou's quote made me very angry. For someone to actually follow that advice, is a weak minded fool. If I were a jedi i'd be jedi mindtricking your ass all across datooine biatch. But, it all depends on how you look at it really, our little reader, Josh, saw it as a positive quote. he thinks that you shouldn't dwell on the things you can't change and just forget them. I will have to disagree with you there Josh, so many great people of today, such as the one above, not only dwelled on their goal of change. But sometimes even succeeded at it. By the way Josh, once your sister reads this she will call it a "cooky scenario". So I won't give a "cooky scenario". Think about it like this, in laymans terms, you want a hot dog, you open the refrigerator, and there's no buns and no weiners (hehe). But you really want a hot dog. Are you just going to make yourself a sandwich and live with the fact that you never had the hot dog? off topic: i love metaphors. back to topic: I wouldn't, me, I would walk to to the nearest grocery store if I had to, I will eat that damn hot dog. and I'm not just gonna sit there and "change my attitude" and settle for the sandwich. fuck that. I will go and buy a damn hot dog.

And now for my "cooky scenario" which I can express myself in better terms. I'll use actual current events just so mimi can't call it a cooky scenario. George W. Bush, decides to make a list of "convicts" who are not allowed to vote. Not only does he put the names of convicts, but he also puts my(hypothetically speaking) name on the list. I have never comited a crime, I have and deserve the right to vote, and I also like to vote democratic (remember everyone, hypothetical, i hate democrats too). So by some "glitch" a lot of people who are known to vote democratic, "myself" included, are denied the right to vote because they think i'm a convict. Well, I wouldn't sit by this at all. No sir, not only would I protest, but I will bitch, moan, fight, bite, kick, scream, and do just anything to make sure that the world knows what happens, and that I get my rights given back to me. I won't just sit there and go "well Bush got me, I guess I'll just sit here and change my attitude about it". Fuck that, All hell will be broken lose, and if I can't change it, I am going to continue to keep trying. Until I do change it. So what I'm trying to say is,

If you don't like something, change it, if you can't change it, keep trying, if you decide to change your attitude and not do anything about it......well go fuck yourself.

Correct if I'm wrong but aren't all convicts denied the right to vote in the first place? As you stated about denying the innocent the right to vote and GW falsely stating that one is a convict--doesn't that remind you of the red scare? Communism--at which in one point of time, people who were even questioned of being a communist had their reputation and even lives, ruined. Kinda like today that Americans would find it insulting to even be thought of much less be accused of being a terrorist. I've always thought that no matter how many wars we go through, no matter how many tragic events we endure, and no matter how many great leaders of this nation we are fortunate to be graced with, this nation will continue to repeat their history and fail in learning from the past...I commend your strong beliefs and I see why my sister loves arguing w/u. Keep it up!-Josh
