But do you really think Tom Petty is "bad-ass"?

Just a question though….if blacks get away with stuff why are the prisons full of em? (OJ Simpson excepted of course) Yes the race card is pulled all too soon with a section of the black community, and it pisses me off to no end, but I don't think they get away with shit for being black, if this woman gets away with anything it's because she's in with the political in-crowd of dc, not because she happens to be black. That's just my opinion of course
Dear Mr. Mankie,

My apologies. (I can't quite figure out from your post if you're sick of Parrotheads or if you love them, but po-tay-to, po-tah-to let's call the whole fuckin' thing off. ;) ) I figured LONG ago that you're not a racist. Nor are you concerned with political correctness. You will berate any asshole, be they black, white, Spanish, Asian, or Martian for that matter. I have a nice respect for you & think you're a cool cat. My sarcasm-filled diatribe was in no form directed at you or people of your ilk . . .

Your post was pretty much spot on all-around. And yes, unfortunately some black folk do use "injustice" as a crutch and that is SUPER wack. But to go back to my earlier statement, assholes come in all shapes & sizes . . .

Peace & blessings, mate . . . ;)

Thats usually the way its done. Proves that racism exists within all races, equally. [/QB]
Did either of you read both of the posts??? Bitingly sarcastic???? Yes. Racist????? Nah. For the most part, I tend to ignore racial posts on the board unless they're as blatant as this one was. I personally don't think racial posts have any place here, but I don't have a message board to call my own so we can file my thoughts under "Barely fucking matters". As far as me being a racist, I don't feel the need to dignify that with a response. I'll assume le sonick was using his dry Canadian wit :D

Tom Petty is a bad man. I don't know how "bad-ass" he is or how he would perform in a hostile barfight situation, but he is a bad man & he fuckin' RAWKS . . . . It's not right or wrong, just my opinion . . . .

You feel another white person just "got away with some shit"????? Yeah. Cause "Black America" really fears white people pulling the race card. They think about that shit so much it's stopping 'em from going to Tyler Perry movies and what not.
That was witty as hell. I like how you flipped that shit. From one smartass to another, I sincerely enjoyed that . . . (No, I'm not being sarcastic)

Doing pretty good man, we moved down to Fredericksburg so the concerts are few and far between. Can you believe the only show we've seen this year was Johnny Winters? Ok, after you all stop laughing let me just say it was actually a good show.

As for the Sox, I'm happy for them, especially since I have Ortiz, Drew and Lester on my fantasy team and am 42-21 so far, and that's with Lester coming up soon and will really boost my team.

Director…..I never had an opinion either way on Jimmy Buffet until I moved down here, now I'm just shit sick of him. Go in any bar with a local band and all you will hear is Buffet and Grateful Dead covers, with the odd Neil Young and America thrown in for good measure. Luckily we don't get enough Young covers for me to get sick of his stuff because I confess to being a Neil Young fan.

In your neck of the woods, he is king. I forgot that. Not particularly my cup tea is Mr. Buffett. I'm a diverse cat, but lines gotta be drawn somewhere. I will confess this however. I had the experience of being one of a handful of black folk in a room at Bar Crawl back in ninety-something (DUH! It was my first time, I was young, etc.) and I witnessed a crowded room of a couple hundred drunks in Rumors sing "Cheesburger In Paradise". AND. THEY. KNEW. ALL. THE. WORDS. That was one of the most unsettling things I ever witnessed in my life. NOW I find it slightly funny. At the time I was only 20/21, and it was some scary shit.

As far as Mr. Young, he is a genius & should be revered as so. Keep on rockin' in the free world, Mankie, keep on rockin in the free world . . . .
:D

That place can sink into the Atlantic along with Delaware and most of Jersey. What a cesspool.

For some reason, when I read your comment about your Buffet experience, the scene in Blazing Saddles were the black deputy comes out from behind the rock and shout's "Were all the white women at?" came to mind. :D

BTW, if you're a Neil Young fan, the cd at Starbucks, Live at Massey Hall, is a must. The Bob Marley one was a bit disapointing though in my opinion.
