Where is my Ridalin?

I'm bored and I can't even think of anything fun to write about. I'd really like to run at the mouth about politics or something fun, but I can't concetrate on any one thing long enought to make any coherent points. Maybe I have a touch of the old ADD. Speaking of which, what is with EVERYONE claiming to have ADD now? Adults, kids, it doesn't seem to matter. I'm sure it exists and is a very real condition for some people, but come on. Really? I feel like I have ADD sometimes (like today) but most likely I'm just a scatterbrain who can't concentrate. Or it has something to do with having 3 kids and a job. Or it has something to do with going from a 6 can a day Mt. Dew habit to zero. Probably a combination of all of the above. Anyway, here is my list of things I'd like to blog about, but just don't have the concentration for today. Maybe tomorrow.

1. Being PC. Not a personal computer you moron...politically correct. I hate all the PC police out there. If I have to deal with hearing about "holiday trees" this year again, someone is going down. Why all of a sudden is everyone so thin skinned?
Oh shit. Is there some thin skin disorder out there that I've just offended?

2. Racism/affirmative action/quotas. Meet the new minority in America...the white male. They are probably the only group I can think of that doesn't have a minority stake in something. Also, I think the most racist people in the country are black. (not all of course, but some) I heard someone say that it isn't possible for black people to be racist...bullhonky.

3. Feminism was great up to a point, but now it is out of control and is counterproductive. Feminism was meant to strive to equal oppertunity for women, not special treatment. It's the same problem I have with affirmative action.

4. Sex Ed for Kindergarden. All I have to say is that it my kid's schools ever decide to implement this, I will yank my kids out of there faster than you can say Obama. Have you seen the Sex Ed that Obama supports?!?!?

So there it is...a sampling of the random shit swirling around in my brain today. Hopefully tomorrow will be a saner day.

Political correctness does get ridiculous at times.

You mentioned that you think the most racist people in the country are black. I'm interested to hear why you feel this way.

Tiffany: You mentioned that you planned on doing a post about racism in America. I was wondering if you'd be interested in writing one as a guest post at Diversity Ink. This is a blog dealing with race issues that I started with several others earlier this year.

If you are interested, please contact me at ultfan@gmail.com and we can discuss it further. Also, if you'd like to check out Diversity Ink, you can do so by visiting
