Segal Invented a New Front Kick

In UFC 126 on 2/5/11, Anderson Silva knocked out Vitor Belfort in the first round with a front kick to the chin. Silva credited actor Steven Segal with teaching him the kick. In an after fight interview, Segal said he worked for years to develop the kick. 


He did what! The first kick every Taekwondo or karate student learns is the front kick. It is then used and perfected over the years the student trains. And yet here is an arrogant actor claiming to have developed a new way to front kick an opponent on the chin.


Segal is the Al Gore of the martial arts. It was Gore who said in a March 1999 interview with Wolf Blitzer that, "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet."

All doctors should be arrested

All doctors should be arrested for withholding disease cures from the public. From advertisements in the media, I have learned there are cures for obesity, baldness, low energy, arthritis, etc. that are not being prescribed by doctors. The makers of these cures will even send you free samples. Doctors must be on the payroll of pharmaceutical companies for withholding these treatments because we all know that the media would not support something that was fraudulent. We all know they are trustworthy and would not allow lies to be told just to further an agenda or make a dollar.

God speaks!

A local high school student recently died in a vehicle accident. A local man with two daughters who attend the same high school was at the beach this past weekend with his family. While on the beach, he carved a tribute to the student in the sand. A religious youth group from the high school was nearby, saw the tribute, and saw it as words from God. The man later said God told him to carve the words. It’s interesting how God speaks. After millions of years of dealing with mankind, he still does it by “signs.”

Integrity

A young, black, Winston-Salem, NC television personality was drunk driving after a party, lost control of his vehicle in a construction zone, and killed a pedestrian. He was remorseful and plead guilty from the beginning. His trial was quick, he served 2 years in prison, got out or prison, and restarted his life.


A white, Raleigh, NC plastic surgeon with multiple DUI arrests was drunk driving at a high rate of speed, rammed a car, and killed a young aspiring ballerina. He had prvious DWIs, showed little remorse, never apologized, delayed his trial for over 2 years, was sentenced to 3 to 4 years in prison, got to leave prison during the week to work at a local pharmaceutical company got 48-hour weekend passes on a regular basis to visit with his family, was released after 3 years, and is now a practicing plastic surgeon again.


Integrity and personal responsibility are not related to race; you either have them or you do not have them.

Pot Head

I was chatting with an old pot head today. He said weed was not addictive; that he had smoked weed for 40 years because it helped control his anxiety. He said was not addicted. I asked how he knew it helped him. He said because when he stopped smoking marijuana, it made him nervous and anxious; which of course was not related to his being addicted to marijuana. This from an engineer who is out of work because he said he has problems dealing with authority.

Trans-ethnic

I'm a pre-op trans-ethnic. I was born white, but I am beginning to question my ethnicity. I am considered a majority, but I am looked down upon by minorities. I have been profiled by people who think that, just because I am white, I am a racist. Police pull me over for merely speeding or having no brake lights. People bump into me on the street and don't say excuse me. I have been passed over for promotions and not hired after job interviews. I have been called whitey, cracker, redneck, and other derogatory, demeaning names. I am legal citizen, which is rapidly becoming an oddity. It does not matter that people say they are not bigots or that they do not behave as bigots, I can tell that they really are bigots just by looking at them. I tell them they “don’t know me” when they question my behavior but they don’t realize that “I know them better than they know themselves.” I hear the snickers and laughter from people while I am in the room. I notice that waitresses and waiters seem to ignore me in restaurants. I hear people say "hello" and "thank you" to me but I know they don’t mean it. I can tell that they look down upon me and really hate me no matter what they say or do.


Until I complete the surgery and become another ethnicity, I will have to suffer the consequences of being white. I will have to train for, look for, get, and keep a job so I can eat and have clothing and housing. I will not be able to attend protests because of having to work. I will have to pay taxes. I will have to be responsible not only for my actions but the actions of all white people since the beginning of time. Of course nothing comes for free. After the surgery, I will have to sell my soul to become a socialist and vote for liberals.

Pink

Is breast cancer the greatest disease to ever plague humankind? One would think so! There is a month for awareness of it; as if there is anyone who is not aware of it. There are thousands of events to raise money for research into it. Celebrities and politicians make public statements in support of research on it. Food products, vehicles, buildings, publications, etc. are all covered in pink to show support. 


What has all the billions and billions of dollars of donations got us? We have some reduction in deaths, which could have been accomplished for far fewer dollars, we have people who are in the spotlight for a time to make themselves feel good about themselves, we have wealthy professional fundraisers, and we have thousands of research labs that take millions of dollars and produce little. Pink is the politically correct thing to be, since you will be ostracized and called sexist if your are not. Pity the people who have other diseases, especially those diseases which occur mostly in men.
